Not sure about the motivations, but it's obvious (right?) that she's up to no good in some form or fashion. Mysterious hints at her background, insistence on ingratiating herself with someone potentially powerful, etc…think she's going to turn out to be like a ninja assassin or something.

If only every breakup
Was this awesome.

Dick VanDyke is awesome
And anyone who disputes that is a raging dumbshit.

Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but the real irony to me here (as someone who loves Mamet the dramatist) is that Glengarry Glen Ross, which is probably his best work, is pretty clearly a parable about how the "free market" brings out the absolute worst in everyone.
