After business calls Jim back to France, Catherine constantly asks Jules "Do you think Jim loves me?", all while still married to Jules.

At the end of the movie, Catherine drives her car into the river with Jim inside, committing murder-suicide.
* GratuitousEnglish: Catherine's mother was British. While explaining to the boys some crackpot theory she read about the Earth being inside a hollow shell, she veers into English for one line, for no apparent reason.
