Cinematic Details

script:
Shannon suddenly grabs Mandy’s arm, glaring.
 
SHANNON

Don’t you ever tell Brian –

MANDY

Ow! Hey –

She  yanks free.

SHANNON

Swear to me you’ll never breathe a word of this – ever!
 

MANDY

I swear. Jesus.
 
Mandy gets up, rubbing her wrist, and walks off, not a little spooked.


What an odd scenario - the wife comforting the employee who's upset because the wife's husband is sleeping with someone else. Mandy's being sympathetic but she simply cannot understand Shannon's point of view since long ago she accepted that love and sex are not the same thing - a necessary trait when married to a rock star. Shannon's not crying for Mandy but because some romantic notions she had about Brian were shattered. Precisely what upset her is up for conjecture - is it because Brian went to bed with someone else or because that someone else was a man. The wild sex party was enough of a rite of passage for her, but then, seeing Brian naked bed with Curt forced her to think about what men do in bed together. Shannon - like Arthur - is an unsophisticated outsider who had no idea how the ramifications of a mere kiss would resonate in her life.

The same most certainly goes for yours! Mmm, Brian.
