However, the dedication and balance that Max shows in the office does not translate to his home life, where he can barely find time for his wife Paige (Andie MacDowell). Paige announces that she wants a divorce and Max admits to himself that she suffered emotional hardship at his hands. Seeking meaning in her life, Paige travels to the Third World as a volunteer.
