Crazy Rich Asians

Harry Leong sends his security men to check Astrid’s hospital room and then strides in moments later with Felicity. He and Felicity are enraged that Astrid has been in the hospital—and a public one, at that—for two days and hasn’t told them. Astrid insists she just had a minor concussion and Cassian is fine, arguing with Harry that she won’t let him assign her and Cassian a driver. Just then, Michael and Cassian, who’s holding a balloon happily, enter. Harry shouts at Michael that he’s working too much and should be “escorting” Astrid. Astrid insists that she, Michael, and Cassian are going home, now. 

Once they’re home, Astrid sends Cassian and his nanny to the beach house and gives the staff the day off. She and Michael are alone, and it’s time: Astrid says that the accident happened because she was distracted thinking about the affair she knows Michael is having. Michael slumps, clearly guilty—and then, shockingly, he apologizes and says he’ll leave. He refuses to tell Astrid anything about the woman or the boy, and he insists that their marriage hasn’t been working for a long time, if it ever did. Astrid is stunned and insists that she is happy, or she was until she saw the text. But she says she’ll deal with it and that they can move on. Michael remains adamant that he’s moving out—it’ll be better for Cassian. He’s leaving today. Astrid feels trapped in a bad dream; her husband can’t be leaving her.
