Marvin looked across the table at his ex-wife and winked. She did a quick double take and squinted her eyes at him.

"What?" he asked innocently.

"You know what," she replied, "You winked at me." She crossed her arms.

Marvin mimicked her, crossing his arms as well. "Is it a crime? The winking?" he asked her seriously.

"Well, in case you haven't noticed," she said leaning towards him slightly lowering her voice, "we're divorced."

"Ahh," Marvin replied leaning back in his chair, nodding in agreement. "That's right, we got divorced. It was very nasty."

"I took you to the cleaners," she said taking a sip of wine.

"Oh right. I remember that. Speaking of, how does the Warhol look in the new place?" he asked conversationally.

"It's in the foyer. Very dramatic," she replied smiling.

"So, are you going to dance with me now?" he asked.

"We hate each other, darling."

"Hmm, how true. What with the divorce and all," Marvin murmured. "Is this a lapidary rule? Or could we maybe make an exception at our daughter's wedding?" he asked holding out his hand.

She raised her eyebrow at him, "You are going to ruin my reputation," she replied taking his hand.
