Fiona We weren’t suited, you and me. It’s as simple as that.

James We were suited well enough to get engaged.

Fiona  Well, yes. But that was before I met Freddie.

James And Freddie changed your mind.

Fiona You mustn’t blame Freddie.

James Why not?

Fiona Because it’s not his fault. If anyone’s to blame, it’s me. I’m not ready for you. I thought I was more mature than I am. You’re a good man, James. Steady, dependable, hardworking. But you’re not who I need right now. I want something else in my life. Fun. Excitement.

James And you think Freddie can give you that?
