* DivorceIsTemporary: Averted. While relations between Ann and Alain seem to be solid (especially when it comes to their children), one of the plot points is Ann getting over her marriage and finally dating other men.

Then the same cop, despite being from an anti-drug unit, doesn't bust Ann's friends for smoking--rather, he smokes with them.
