Show Synopsis:
Elyot and Amanda are happily married; just not to each other. Five years after their tempestuous divorce, they find themselves in adjoining hotel suites on their honeymoons with their new, significantly younger spouses, Sibyl and Victor. The setup is a recipe for disaster: Elyot and Amanda’s three-year marriage was as passionate as it was explosive, ending in tragedy. Now, their unsuspecting new partners, already uneasy about their spouses’ pasts, find themselves caught in the crossfire. Elyot and Amanda’s old chemistry resurfaces and both attempt to flee the scene with their new spouses, but Sibyl and Victor refuse to leave. Left alone together, Elyot and Amanda run off to Paris. They spend a blissful day and early evening together, revelling in their rediscovered affection and agreeing to use “Solomon Isaacs” as a safe word should tempers flare. But they soon become disgustingly drunk, and in their game to outwit each other, lose sight of their reconciliation and quarrel bitterly and then violently. The night ends in disaster, and they retreat to separate bedrooms. By morning, Sibyl and Victor arrive to confront them, only to be drawn into the fray as Elyot and Amanda slip quietly away once more.
