A couple hours later as Sam sits in Celine's living room:Sam: Thanks again for doing this. It is going to be nice having some suggestions. I am nervous to ask my parents because I just never have the chance.
Celine: -Walks over and gives him a water before sitting down- Of course, I want my partner's lives here to be as easy as possible because we are all affected if there are problems.
Sam: I know. -Smiles as he looks at her- So the first concern that I wanted to talk about is just, talking to her about my concerns regarding this show and how I want her to wait.
Celine: I thought you said you had that conversation. Someone told me you did at least. But is this because you are worried for your daughter more than your wife or both?
Sam: It's just, I have worked for so long and have been working for about 2 years straight now. She is just coming back to the work force and now she just had some problems.
Celine: Yes. As did your daughter. You may want to consider that this could be her way to distract herself from the worry of always having your daughter on her mind. And believe in others.
Sam: I don't think that is true. No offence, I mean, I don't know what women think about but that is something we did talk about. We already agreed on somethings like going back if it gets to be too much so that is easy. But the thing I am worried about is that when we came here, we came committed to do a show. What happens if we do decide to leave, it will affect the show.
Celine: Ah, I see, you are really asking me what you should worry about more. Your loyalty towards your friends and the commitment you made for the show or the promises you made your wife?
Sam: That and because I want to be here myself but I always tell myself, family first. I need to be with her and it just feels so wrong that she can't have my full attention. Yes, her mom is here but I have realized that not only her but my daughter needs me more than I thought. The thing is that we are also starting to clash. Has that ever happened to you and Rene?
Celine: Like fights, that is normal Sam. You will never agree on everything. Just explain everything and tell her why you want to do things.
Sam: But in situations where I need to make a decision As Soon as Possible? That automatically puts a strain on our relationship just for that time. I know Quinn trusts me but sometimes, I feel like she can't trust me 100% and than I am going to take her down a bad way. I need to explain every time and I just don't like it because it makes me feel sad that my wife can't trust me to pick right and wrong right when I tell her what I have done.
Celine: Why are you not telling her all this? I mean, what you are saying right now is probably exactly what she wants to hear when you tell her this.
Quinn: -Came in to get a drink when she overheard Sam and Celine. So, she stood out of their sight and listens in to try and understand why Sam needs to ask Celine this-
Sam: But how can I do it when I am scared that she will take it wrong and put another strain. It seems like everytime I explain myself, I know down a wall and she puts it right back up. Do you think this means I should maybe try and let her protect herself more or gain confidence? Could I be affecting her self-confidence by doing what I am doing Celine?
