At Troy's
Troy and Lindsay are in bed.
Troy: Morning beautiful.
Lindsay: You're still here!
Troy: Of course I'm still here, where else would I be?
Lindsay: Catching the fastest train away from me. That's usually what happens with the men that I date.
Troy: Well you know, I thought about that, but then I remembered that this was my place.
Lindsay: Thanks, that makes me feel much better.
Troy: Oh come on. You know I'm not going anywhere. Not after last night.
Lindsay: Mmm, last night!
Troy: That was pretty incredible.
Lindsay: Who would have even thought.
Troy: Oh now wait a minute. I think I should be offended by that.
Lindsay: No, not at all. You were absolutely amazing.
Troy: Good! So then, what's the problem?
Lindsay: What's the problem? Are you kidding! Nora's hero doctor in bed with the wicked witch of the West.
Troy: You're not a witch.
Lindsay: You tell that to her.
Troy: Maybe I will.
Lindsay: You're going to tell Nora that you slept with me?!
Troy: I don't talk all about my love life.
Lindsay: No, of course you don't because you're the hero doctor.
Troy: Lindsay you gotta get that idea out of your head. I'm not as heroic as you think.
Lindsay: Yeah you are.
Troy: No, I'm serious.
Lindsay: What is this? True confessions! What are you playing here?
Troy: Why not?!
Lindsay: Well I'm not asking you too.
Troy: No, but I want us to trust each other. And the only way we can do that is if we know everything about each other, the good and the bad.
Later, Troy is telling Lindsay about an incident with Colin when they were boys.
Lindsay: (goes to sit on the couch) Okay, so what, you were dangling Colin out of a window?!
Troy: (sitting next to her) That's right!
Lindsay: From what floor?
Troy: From the second floor.
Lindsay: Ah, that's not so bad.
Troy: Well, that's not all. I mean when my dad came into the room, I told him that Colin was the one doing it to me.
Lindsay: You're kidding!
Troy: Nope.
Lindsay: And he believed you?
Troy: Of course! I'm the good twin. I could do no wrong.
Lindsay: And why did you do this?
Troy: Because I got tired of Colin picking on me. So I decided to fight back.
Lindsay: Hmm, so you took a page out of his book?
Troy: That's right! I learned from the best. Colin was always trying to blame me for everything he did.
Lindsay: Wait a minute! I thought you were the good twin!
Troy: I was. They didn't believe him. They believed me.
Lindsay: And how often did you do this?
Troy: Well not that often, just often enough to keep Colin on his toes.
Lindsay: You are really sneaky, aren't you?
Troy: Well that's what I'm trying to tell you. Everyone is. Nobody's all good or all bad.
Lindsay: Well Nora is.
Troy: Nora is what . . . all good or all bad?
Lindsay: Depends on your point of view.
Troy: Ah, and what about you?
Lindsay: Well Nora would tell you that I'm all bad.
Troy: And what would you tell me?
Lindsay: Well I'm not going to tell you that I'm all good.
Troy: Well that's good. I like that. So tell me Lindsay Rappaport, what evil things have you done?
Lindsay: What is that suppose to mean?
Troy: Nothing. Just that I shared a secret with you. Now it's your turn to share with me.
Lindsay: You want me to tell you a secret?
Troy: Sure, why not! You told me you could tell me anything last night.
Lindsay: I did, yes.
Troy: Okay, so what's wrong? Don't you trust me?
Lindsay: Yeah, I do!
Troy: Good, because I trust you. Otherwise I wouldn't have told you the things that I did to Colin.
Lindsay: Oh come on. Really. Colin is dead! And you were kids. I mean no one's going to blame you for that.
Troy: Oh, so what are you saying? What you did is so much worse! Come on Lindsay! Don't you understand. The things you don't want to tell me, the bad things . . . they are exactly the things that appeal to me the most.
Lindsay: Really?!
Troy: Really! So you can tell me whatever it is you don't want to tell me.
Lindsay: Okay. I'm going to tell you something that I never told anyone. . . And so I arranged for her to say that she slept with Cristian and then paid her for it.
Troy: So?
Lindsay: So! So I made sure that Jen overheard her.
Troy: Okay.
Lindsay: I broke my daughters heart.
Troy: Yeah, but they're back together now, right?
Lindsay: Yeah.
Troy: So then everything's fine.
Lindsay: Where were you when I was explaining this to Jen?
Troy: I mean, come on, it's not like you did anything irreparable.
Lindsay: Well no, but it was pretty bad.
Troy: Oh come on, I've done things way worse that.
Lindsay: You have?!
Troy: Of course I have. Everyone has.
Lindsay: No . . . I don't think . . .
Troy: EVERYONE has. They just don't tell other people about it because they're afraid if they do, than no one will love them anymore.
Lindsay: Sometimes they would be right
Troy: Sometimes, but not all the time. Colin was my brother. Colin did some horrible things, but he was still my brother.
Lindsay: And you still loved him.
Troy: That's right. If I didn't, how could I expect anybody to love me?
Lindsay: What have you done?
Troy: I told you the things that I did to Colin.
Lindsay: No, what's the worst thing that you've ever done?
Troy: No, no, no I went first last time. Now it's your time to go first.
Lindsay: Mines pretty bad.
Troy: Yeah, that's what you said about Jen and Cristian.
Lindsay: No, the worse thing I've ever done, doesn't involve either one of them.
Troy: So who does it involve?
Lindsay: (getting up from the couch) I should go.
Troy: What!
Lindsay: I got a million things to do at the gallery.
Troy: Well wait, we were just getting to know each other here.
Lindsay: Well you know we can still get to know each other, can't we?
Troy: Yeah of course, but I mean you don't just start a conversation like that and get up and leave.
Lindsay: Well you leave them wanting more. (she kisses him)
Troy: Oh you're kidding me?!
Lindsay: Wait now, the next time that we do this, I'll tell you.
Troy: So then why don't you come over tonight.
Lindsay: No, no. It's not that I don't want to be with you, it's just I don't think we should be doing this here. My daughter's right upstairs. (she goes to get dressed)
Later, Troy leaves a message for Nora on her machine.
Troy: Nora, it's Troy. I just want to let you know I'm closer than ever to giving you that gift I promised you . . . Lindsay's head on a silver platter.
