1. What was this earth-shattering paper about? Why did Robert need Catherine to work on it? What techniques made it so hip and prove whatever it was trying to prove?
2. "I feel like I could crack open. Like an egg, or one of those really smelly French cheeses that ooze everywhere when you cut them." Gag!
3. Robert complains that Catherine didn't get up until noon. If you take care of someone, as she is supposedly doing, you are on their schedule, not yours!
4. Catherine is a narcissistic, self-absorbed whiner who doesn't deserve anyone's sympathy.
5. Jake Gyllenhaal. How this guy gets work is beyond me! I never bought he could add 2 + 2, much less, was a math whiz! But I did buy he'd bang Catherine so he could make off with the old man's "sh*t" to "write my ticket"!
6. Claire's determination to convince Catherine that she's nuts and put her in the loony bin. What's in it for her?
7. Who knew mathematicians are a bunch of drugged-out wack jobs? Sophie Germain must be spinning in her grave!
