John tells his wife Nicky he wants a divorce, saying he’s tired of their life and wants freedom. He insults her and demands his share, but Nicky refuses, reminding him she spent decades raising their children and caring for him.
John then reveals he’s drained nearly all their joint savings to fund a six-month trip to Mexico, hoping to pressure her into signing the divorce papers.
Shocked and furious, Nicky realizes he has left her with almost nothing—using money as leverage to force her decision.
