"Do you really think it's possible to love someone unconditionally?" she asks. "You know, there must be some point where we all fall outside the reach of love, right? Like, the mistake is so big, and then the love has to stop."

I watched this scene and was totally unprepared for it. I paused the stream and broke down completely, just sobbing as I took in Amy's words, understanding that they extended further than her broken relationship with George. On a deeper level that I didn't even know existed, this scene reached the child within me and wrung out all of the painful emotions relating to my relationship with my parents that I'd suppressed for decades. I've never had an experience like it before and I think it really speaks to the power of this scene and Ali Wong's flawless performance. Truly a masterclass in screenwriting and acting that's rare to experience in today's day and age.

The writing (“fall outside the reach of love”) is exquisite.

She realizes that she is not happy, but she feel hopeless and compelled to follow roadmaps that do not lead to happiness. It is a vicious cycle when children and marriage is involved.

Feeling worthy of love regardless of where you've been or the choices you've made is non negotiable to survive and to be whole mentally, if not spiritually as well. So many people like Amy never learn to find that in themselves and, because ignoring the need doesnt make it go away, end up searching for it in all the external places. A spouse or a child can be an incredible source of love but, at the end of the day, they're still human and can't meet that kind of suffocating standard. Amy needing her family to be her everything or to all or nothing "complete" her is why George will always give her "the ick" when his quirks and flaws show. He will never be good enough for the pedestal she put him on. At the same time Amy will never be happy as a full time homemaker just as she was never happy with her job. Like many people who shouldn't be parents she wanted a baby, not a child. The more thoughts and feelings that child has the more frustrated she's just going to be because, again, going against her unrealistic expectations.

She just missed the point. She does so much to sacrifice to others. It's her parent's way of showing the things they wanted for her. It's what's lead to her to be destructive towards herself and her marriage. She's always crying for help inside.

I’m back to have a cry over this scene.

I keep watching this scene over and over and crying.
