Ginny, who was in an unhappy marriage, fantasized about a hero who could save her from her unhappy marriage. When talking to Mickey about her ex-husband, her face was illuminated with colored lights and looked dreamy, reflecting Ginny Nostalgia for the previous marriage; when talking about the current husband, the colored light on his face slowly disappeared, reflecting Ginny's despair in the current marriage.

Sometimes love can make people a little blind and confident. When chatting with friends, Ginny is sure that Mickey has feelings for her; similarly, when her daughter Carolina is chatting with Ginny, she also feels that Mickey is interested in her.

Because of jealousy, Ginny played tricks on Caroline in secret. How could the innocent Caroline go to Ginny to talk about Mickey's romance. The color of the light on the faces of the two people in this scene is constantly changing, which reflects the great emotional fluctuations of the two people. In order to stop Carolina from falling in love with Mickey, Ginny calls Mickey a liar.

When a woman starts to be afraid of losing a man, it is usually that she is about to lose the man. The insecure Ginny begins to question Mickey, and she can't enjoy the process of visiting the Chinese garden with Mickey on her 40th birthday.

Mickey is the kind of romantic who falls in love too easily, unsure of his own emotions, he goes to a sane friend and concludes that he fell in love with Carolina because of novelty, Kim Ni is his true love.

Mickey decided to treat his emotions rationally and choose a more suitable Ginny, but he fell in the next second and agreed to date Carolina. How powerless is reason in love.

Carolina knew that Mickey might hurt her heart, but she couldn't control herself to flirt with Mickey.

In order to speed up the development of her relationship with Mickey, Ginny stole her husband's money and bought Mickey an expensive pocket watch. She was fed up with her current life, and Carolina's intervention made her even more panic and more afraid of losing Mickey. This watch was her last gamble, trying to use this very expensive gift as a trigger for Mickey to elope with her. The subtext of Ginny's gift to Mickey is: I have paid so much for you, and you should repay me with equal value. But at this time Mickey was fascinated by the younger, beautiful and more story-telling Carolina. Mickey knew that his heart was no longer on Ginny, so he couldn't accept this heavy gift, and the pocket watch became the two of them. The trigger for the breakdown of the relationship. Obviously, the engraved watch cannot be returned. Ginny tried to catch love with her last strength, but she let it go.

After being rejected by Mickey, Ginny almost broke down when she learned that Carolina was going to date Mickey.

When Mickey comes back, Ginny is still confident that she has regained Mickey's affection, and then there's a whole lot of back-and-forth self-talk about forgiving Mickey after regaining her dignified situation. The result was another disillusionment.

"When it comes to love, we tend to be our own worst enemies," says Ginny, like Woody Allen's advice to a love-bubble madman.
