Cheating Notes

Rudy (Ben Affleck) pretends to be Nick, his cellmate who is killed in a riot, and meets his hot penpal/girlfriend Ashley (Charlize Teron) when he gets out of prison. She doesn't know any better because she supposedly only exchanged letters with Nick and hasn't seen photos of him yet. She fucks Rudy at 18:00.

(Spoilers)

We will find out later that Gabriel, who introduced himself first as Ashley's brother is actually his boyfriend. At 1:20:53, Rudy sees them in the pool, and by listening to their conversation. learns of their real relationship. He also sees them start to make love in the water.

(More spoiler)

At the end part of the movie, Nick reappears. It turns out that he's not dead at all and is the real, real boyfriend of Ashley. They just pretended that they were penpals so that they can lure Rudy and Gabriel in but in fact, they were already a couple before he was imprisoned and she was the reason why he got in jail in the first place (he killed a man who was hitting on her or something).

Note: The theatrical cut has some extra frames in the sex scenes, emphasizing Charlize Teron's assets more. But there are also frames in the director's cut that are not in the theatrical cut.
