   Daphne does ask Kugelmass where he goes all the time and whether he has a "chippie stashed somewhere." However, I don't think she really suspects him of having an affair. He describes them as moping around the house "like two pieces of old furniture." They're so used to each other that she believes all the stories he tells her. Besides, he says at the beginning of the story that she's an oaf.

   He won't divorce her because he knows she'll "take him to the cleaners." He can't afford another divorce, since he's paying alimony and child support to his first wife.
