Childless and twice married, Merkel was cast as an indulgent mother to the electorate during the 2009 campaign. Though she claims to bake the occasional plum cake, she doesn't exactly match the ideal of a German hausfrau. Her second husband, an eminent chemist, often ducks out of official events. "He needs the working day for his science," says Merkel. Such attitudes may have annoyed traditionalists, but her quiet determination has helped her gain broad support well beyond the Christian Democrats' core voters. Even among those who identify themselves as Social Democrats, Merkel's unstuffy pragmatism, social liberalism and commitment...
...Back in the village of Gitam, 29 year-old Salvador Pedro has just returned home after 10 years of service in the U.S. Navy, an experience that he says helped him mature.

Crew catalogue. So what's in it for Jane? We understand that she wants the validation of finally hearing her husband admit he made a mistake. The second wife, Agness (Lake Bell), is a huge disappointment: temperamental, with "a big job," a demanding child who diminishes Stepdad Jake every chance...
...only a humble one like Adam, who was cuckolded by his ex-wife, is really worthy of any successful, independent woman's while. Speaking of Adam, you know how he and Jane met? He's the architect on her remodel. Apparently Jane needs a bigger kitchen. All those cake plates of hers must be feeling squeezed for space...
