Max and Amanda are America’s dream couple. Former college sweethearts, they marry and their careers skyrocket; Max as a star infielder with the Boston Red Sox, Amanda as a Hollywood actress. They seem to be living 'the perfect life.' They buy an elegant home in suburban Boston and furnish it lavishly. The next year Amanda buys a home in LA because of the time demands of her movie career. But the stress of almost constant traveling and living apart wear on their marriage. Although they still love each other, they’re living as single people on opposite coasts. They divorce and start new lives. Years later, the suspicious death of someone close to one of them reunites Max and Amanda. They meet in southern California at Amanda’s plush beachside home near Santa Barbara. They reminisce over candlelight dinners, Hollywood parties, walks on the beach, and wine tasting. One morning poolside they sip Bloody Marys — and one of them reveals a "Bloody Mary Confession."
