Dan, an owner of his own construction company. His business is going under and his life at home isn't what it used to be. Him and his wife Elizabeth have been having trouble. Elizabeth hates her job and comes home hating him. They haven't had an intimate moment in months. Dan feels the weight of so much stress on his shoulders, he has no idea how to fix his life at home.
Dan stays up late every night, thinking and pondering of an idea. One night after a long 14 hour day of work he stops at the package store and buys a 5th of vodka. He gets home, Elizabeth doesn't even acknowledge him. He must have done something wrong... He sits on the couch and turns on the tv and starts to drink, continuously pondering and over thinking it.
Thinking of what they used to be... Dan and Elizabeth met in high school and fell in love hard and fast. There were some bumps in the road at first, but they were resilient and thought they could conquer the world together. Elizabeth started her career in health care to help keep money coming in while Dan started his company. Everything was great at first, she was so turned on by how successfully his company was becoming. But when the days got longer and they spent less time together she grew resentful. He cared more about his company than he cared for her.
Dan starts thinking about how passionate Elizabeth was. She used to go crazy for him every night but now... she barely speaks to him. He longed to have her all over him again. Suddenly he goes crazy. He stomps upstairs, seeing Elizabeth in her nightgown. He doesn't say a single word and he angrily walks over to her, and tears off her nightgown. She was so beautiful...
