Natasha breaks her face (“Running With Scissors”)
Like we mentioned in a previous entry, Carrie Bradshaw makes some really terrible decisions. When she was dating the seemingly perfect Aidan, she chose to get mixed up with Mr. Big again, despite how tumultuous their relationship has always been. And to make matters worse, Big isn’t just unavailable, he’s married to the stunning Natasha.
Even after Charlotte finds out about the affair with Big and obviously disapproves, Carrie continues on fooling around with Big. When Natasha is away in the Hamptons, Carrie has a tryst in the couple’s apartment. Thinking she’s gone for a while, Carrie is walking around the apartment half-dressed, when Natasha unexpectedly comes home.
As soon as Carrie hears her walk in the door, she freezes, then tries to sneak out without her noticing. Natasha sees Carrie as she struggles to unlock the door chain. She runs after her in the hall shouting about how she knew they were having an affair, but she didn’t think it was happening in her own home.
As Natasha chases after her, she trips on the stairs and falls face first onto the floor. Since Carrie isn’t a complete monster, she turns around to make sure she’s okay, and notices Natasha’s bleeding. She immediately gets her into a cab to take her to the hospital, and surprisingly goes with her.
We definitely feel bad for Natasha. Not only does she find her husband’s mistress in their home, but then she smashes her beautiful face on the ground while chasing after her. Even though it’s mean, her falling on her face is still the slightest bit satisfying.
