He's feeling good.
He's had a few drinks, and he's behind the wheel of a flashy sports car.
Things couldn't be better.
Well, they're about to get a lot worse.
He's doing 60 an hour in a 35 zone when he passes a police car.
Instead of slowing down, Steven hits the gas.
He loses control.
His car flips multiple times, throwing him in a ditch.
His pelvis is shattered.
Doctors expect him to die.
Somehow, he survives.
His marriage doesn't.
While Stephen recovers, Debbie takes over the finances.
She discovers credit card bills from bars and restaurants she's never been to, hotels she doesn't recognize.
The double life Stephen's been living starts to unravel.
Debbie, of course, assumes Stephen has been cheating on her, so she confronts him.
Stephen tells Debbie the truth.
He has been cheating, but not with a woman.
Stephen tells Debbie that he's gay, that the life they've built together isn't real, at least not for him.
And look, I can't imagine how hard that conversation must have been for both of them.
