Paripassu:
Truth is that dude had it coming all along. He married a down right unsubmissive woman in the person of Mary. Her sheer unwillingness and disinterestedness in learning or speaking his language is a huge red flag. See the way he was talking like a girl in love while Mary was acting like the man in charge of the relationship.
"I feel relaxed around her, I feel comfortable with her". Him leaning into her, acting like he has won a jack pot for a woman he had not properly vetted.
