When they meet again, she tells him she is free between the hours of 5 to 7, and suggests he meet her the following Monday at the Guggenheim museum. At the museum Arielle reveals that she is in an open marriage with a diplomat (Lambert Wilson) and explains that is why she is only available from 5 to 7 on weeknights. She also reveals she has two children Mark (age 7) and Elodie (age 6). Bloom is perplexed at this information and tells Arielle that he cannot continue the relationship with her believing it is an unethical affair. Arielle tells him she is sad at his decision but should he change his mind that she will continue to smoke on Fridays at the same place they met. It takes 3 weeks before Brian changes his mind and decides to pursue Arielle. He meets her on a Friday, and lights her cigarette, and they embrace. She then gives him a hotel key and a time to meet her (5 o'clock). He meets her at the hotel room, where they then consummate their relationship.
