Nina and Olivia in “Unfinished Business”

How are you feeling?

I'm okay. I talked to Walter.

What did he say?

Well, it doesn't matter. I met a woman today. She just lost her husband and as she was talking about him and her marriage, as much as she wanted to be, she wasn't in love. As I was listening to her, I realized what she was saying: she had let go of he possibility of love, of finding love, and I could see myself in her. I didn't like who I was. All of these memories and feelings that I'm experiencing, they're from a better version of me. I just decided to let things run their course.

No, you've had an emotional day. You don't have to decide anything right now.

I've made my decision.

You have so much in your life, Olive. Are you just going to let that all disappear? And be replaced by what? Memories of a life that you didn't live?

Yes.

Well, how long do we have?

I don't know. Neither does Walter.

Well my mother used to say "encourage the quest for happiness in your children, even if it takes them very far away from you."

When the day comes, if I don't remember this, I want you to try and build something with me again. Don't give up on me. [Nina nods tearfully] I love you, Nina.

I love you, Olive.
