Caroline:
Are you in love?

Mary:
Well, I... I do love him, I suppose. Not quite like when we first met. I trust him, really. He's my closest friend. But, what do you mean by in-love?

Mary:
Anything?

Caroline:
I knew that fantasy was passing into reality. Have you ever experienced that? It's like stepping into a mirror.
