A buttoned-up newlywed finds his strictly organized life descend into chaos when he falls in love with an old classmate.

— No, Lisa. I shouldn't have asked you to come down here. I'm not getting back together with you.
— What are you talking about? W-Why?
— Why? You screwed a scuba diving instructor on our honeymoon. I mean, what kind of cold, heartless bitch... would do that to someone they love? I'd have to be an idiot to get back together with you after that. Oh, and by the way, I destroyed all your little throw pillows. Yeah, because throw pillows suck, okay? They serve no purpose. They're purely decorative.

It's always the same story with you, huh, pal? You did this one movie a hundred years ago. From then on, you thought you were better than everybody else. Why don't you let go? Move on with your life. It's not about what happened in the past... or what you think might happen in the future. It's about the ride, for Christ's sake. There's no point going through all this crap... if you're not gonna enjoy the ride. And you know what? When you least expect it, something great might come along... something better than you even planned for.

— Leland, I mean, it's not just the BASE jumping. It's the heli-skiing, Volcano luging, shark diving. Bottom line is, unless you drastically alter your lifestyle, we won't be able to insure you.
— Reuben, I came to you for a reason. I was told that you had more imagination... than any of the other blokes in the big firms... that you analyze the man and not just the numbers. I guess I was wrong.
