Although they do love each other, they are falling into a rut. Toni compares their love life not to an exciting Ferrari or even stable and reliable Volvo, but rather a Pacer, "fun in the past, but outdated". On the other side of the coin, Bao thinks his professional life will soon take an upward swing when he expects he will be offered the principal tuba seat with the symphony orchestra. But the symphony's job offer of development officer isn't quite what he expected or wanted. But he takes the job, without telling Toni, since he feels in holding out for his dream job of playing the tuba regularly and professionally, he has not given Toni the life she deserved. Thinking Bao having an affair due to his now daytime absence, Toni and Bao have a heart to heart, which includes Bao knowing about the Pacer comparison. This talk opens up an entire new chapter of understanding and love in their lives. But ultimately it is hearing his favorite tune "Clair de Lune" being played by a street musician that makes Bao realize that his happiness inspires happiness around him. It's going to be a good twentieth wedding anniversary. Written by Huggo See less
