BEER Group Read. Meeting cute

[Mark Kohut]

But what Maxine does on her grief-reducing cruise is to
fuck "the real estate obsessive"........Symbolic I'd say (as well as real enough)

"Friendship?" Reg is puzzled..."You didn't even like hiim."
"A technical term".......[sez Maxine]. 

Sex happens. What does THIS say about Maxine? 
About fucking? 
About friendship?

That would be maxine and reg.....banter between them like an old movie....or an
imitative new one......they don't od IT but flirt and stay friends........(Maxine does
it w a real estate guy, the one who 'does her a mitzvah' by getting her delicensed. 
 
and now he wants her expertise.....
 
back and forth in time in the narrative....
