Mary Louise: I'm presented with the idea that my son was both an adulterer and a rapist. And I am desperate to squash that idea.
Jane: Well, I can tell you that he's the only man I'd been with.
Mary Louise: That you recall.
Jane: Excuse me?

Jane: I remember. Perfectly. Far more vividly than I care to.
Mary Louise: Just a simple blood test.
