There was an implication in the movie, that the whole thing was a scam against Margaret.
David Mamet adds a scene where Mike, the con-man, is running away from Margaret for the first time, and he kisses her, not on the lips but on the cheek. This seems to show that Mike, a very good scammer, could fake everything until this point of the movie, yet cannot fake the kiss.
This scene implies that everything that Mike did up to this point is only a set of fake actions, not anything out of true heart. Yet, blinded by personal emotions, Margaret still cannot quite figure out the vibe in the air, and leaves as nothing really happened. While a character is blinded by it, Mike uses it as a weapon against Margaret, and fakes it to win whatever he wanted from her.
