Anna is at Lynette to comfort her after Jim moves out.

Anna: I can't tell you have sorry I am, this must be so hard on you.

Lynette: I'm coping pretty well, it's just hard for me to make the children understand.

Anna: I can imagine, they're too young to have to deal with something like this.

Lynette: I just keep telling them that their Dad is coming back soon.

Anna: You don't know that.

Lynette: It's going to work out.

Anna: You may hope for it to work out, but you need to prepare yourself and those kids for the worst.

Lynette: I don't feel that things are that bad yet.

Anna: Not that yet? The man walked outh, to me that says that the situation has gone bad.

Lynette: There are times I think about the reality of all this and when I think about what could happen,

it scares ch

Anna: Your father always said that there wasn't something right about Jim and I guess he was right.

Lynette: Mother, Dad's biggest problem with Jim is that he wasn't some wealthy heir.

Anna: You were raised to strive to be the best and follow your dreams. Jim was content with never being anything

more than a supermarket checker, so this marriage was bound to have problems some time or other.

Lynette: I don't need this from you right now, I'm trying to keep myself from breaking down for the sake of my kids

and all you can do is criticize Jim for not being the kind of person you expect everyone to be.

Anna: Well, I'm sorry if you don't like it, but I'm telling you exactly what you need hear.

Lynette: No, you just saw an opport unity to get in your little potshots.

Anna: It won't be long now before you are going to open your eyes and see that every single thing that I've said is right.
