If you saw the movie 28 Hotel Rooms, what in your opinion are they saying at the end (contains plot spoilers)?

Asked by florican (84points) May 10th, 2013

At the end of the movie they’re saying “six months” to each other and seem to have happy but mixed feelings about that. Are they agreeing to each go wrap things up at home, leave their other partners, and finally be together full-time as of six months from that point? Or are they just promising each other they won’t get so estranged and out of touch again—that they’ll have their next brief rendezvous no later than six months from that point?

Based upon this question, I watched to movie. You are right. There is no solid indicator of what Man and Woman are agreeing to do. After reading through numerous reviews, no one else seems to know either, even those that warn of a spoiler.

If forced to make a guess, I’d say that the agreement is to separate or divorce their spouses within the next six months and reunite on a more permanent basis in Chicago on April 12th.

Here’s a question for you…who is the biological father of Emma (Woman’s daughter)? Is it her husband or Man?

Yeah, great question! It could be that her husband is the bio father and it’s just devastating to Man to hear she’s pregnant (because they’re often flirting with the idea that someday they’ll be together full-time, and the news of a child suddenly makes that feel much less likely).

But something in the way she was talking did bring up that question for me too! I don’t remember if it’s quite this strong, but I think she says something like “I’m keeping it and raising it with him”?

What I thought 6 months meant was .. she was going to have the baby. She needed the extended time away from him because this would keep her at home and unable to leave her family. They would plan to get together on that April 12th. They said we can do this yet it would be the extra challenge with the additional family commitment with a new child. You can see they are saying, ” we can do this.” (be together again as before) but there is an inner thought that maybe, it could, and may be the end. You can see there is fear that this is the end of their relationship.
