You ever think... in another life... S - I won't be that woman, Michael. M - I wasn't asking you to be. But it is something I wonder about. What if... Anyway, just wanted to make sure it was said. S - Why do I feel like you're saying goodbye to me? M - I don't know. I guess in a place like this, you never know which day is gonna be your last. K - Sara, we're backing up out here. S - Okay.
