A childhood family tragedy makes mangoes inseparable from the end of a marriage. She tells Alan Holt that giving her one will mean he wants a divorce. Years later, he appears to defend that boundary against Larissa Fennimore, his childhood sweetheart. A drink served at a celebration reveals that he and Larissa have instead made it into a joke. The gesture changes how she understands his promises.
