I am watching a reality show with a couple talking about their lives, six children, and their marriage which is falling apart. In one scene they go to a pet store. She is wearing an outfit that clearly shows off her long legs but also reveals that she is wearing black lace underwear. I am a bit surprised and wonder how her husband is going to feel when he sees this on television. The husband is looking for an exotic pet while the wife is talking about how she would like to have another child even though they can barely afford what they already have and don't really need even a pet to add to their financial burden. She continues talking, as she tries to control her children, to someone (the camera?) about how her husband has a dream to be a musician and that when he makes it, they are going to be living the plush life. She adores him and is still hopeful but it is obvious that he is tired of being married, responsible for so many children, and that deep down inside, he is ready and wanting to leave the relationship.
