There, your present-day fiancee (at that point your soon-to-be ex-wife) might be using records of your EZ-Pass transactions from way back in 2004 to demonstrate your already nascent pattern of infidelity, as exemplified by your frequent visits to your many on-the-side girlfriends...

Her grand old house in Amsterdam...
