Dear Mrs. Abrams…

Dear Mrs. Abrams (aka the lovely Katie McGrath), I wish to apologize in advance. Because if I ever meet your husband on the street or in a restaurant or at an interview or…anywhere, I will be forced to kiss his mouth. Please know that this is not an effort to tempt him from the sacred…
