Jejich vzájemné sympatie přerostou v milostný románek, k překvapení všech se brzy také vezmou. Po svatbě se Richard snaží pečlivě rozdělovat svůjčas mezi psaní románů, manželku a postiženého bratra, ale Ellen je čím dál víc zatrpklejší.

Všichni lidé kolem Richarda se tak najednou stávají jejími úhlavními nepřáteli, protože ji okrádají o manželův čas.
