Lindsay: (she walks in) What are you doing here? Well?!
Troy: There was a last minute legal mix up with the clinic. Nora wanted to straighten it out before the fundraiser.
Lindsay: What, you couldn't do that with a phone call?
Troy: Well, difficult to get my signature over the phone, right!
Lindsay: I don't see any papers.
Troy: Nora was just leaving.
Nora: No, actually I wasn't. I wasn't planning on going anywhere. Troy's lying to you Lindsay.
Lindsay: Troy would never lie to me.
Troy: Lindsay!
Nora: Troy, don't! Lindsay deserves to know the truth.
Lindsay: (smirks) Here we go again, the truth according to Nora, Part 12.
Nora: You were right. There are no clinic incorporation papers.
Lindsay: No kidding!
Nora: I came here to warn Troy about getting involved with you. I was telling him that it was a huge mistake.
Troy: Yeah, she's right. There are no legal papers.
Lindsay: (looking at Troy) You lied to me!
Troy: Hey, come on, this is your night alright! I didn't want to ruin it for you.
Lindsay: (to Nora) You, you are such a witch!
Nora: Well there's the pot calling the kettle black!
Lindsay: No, no, no not anymore. Not with him. I've changed.
Nora: A leopard never changes her spots. She's still a maneater. And Bo and Sam were lucky to get away with their lives.
Lindsay: You just can't stand to see me happy, can you? You can't stand it that I found someone who's not hung up on you. You're just jealous!
Nora: Jealous! Why in the world would I be jealous of you. Everybody who's cared about you has run screaming for their lives.
Lindsay: (very upset) Okay, I'm going to let that one go today because I'm so happy. I have Troy. You are just jealous and you want to know who I feel sorry for? Sam! Poor Sam!
Troy: (moving between the women) That's enough, okay! Calm down. You're overreacting.
Lindsay: You don't know her Troy.
Troy: Nora doesn't care about me. Nora's in love with Sam.
Lindsay: Well that has never stopped her before.
Troy: Nora, I thank you for your concern about my well being, but I'm fine.
Nora: Well, this woman has tried to kill you once before.
Lindsay: Drama queen!
Troy: (putting his arm around Lindsay) There's nothing about Lindsay I don't already know. I know all about her past.
Nora: I doubt that.
Troy: Well it doesn't matter. I'm in love with her.
Nora: So you say.
Troy: That's right, I do! And now I would appreciate it if you would stop bad-mouthing the woman I'm in love with.
Nora: I stand corrected, and I apologize Troy.
Lindsay: And what about me?
Nora: What about you?
Lindsay: Gee, you still coming to the fundraiser?
Nora: As co-counsel to the clinic, I don't think I really have a choice, do I? Excuse me. (she leaves)
Lindsay: That woman has incredible nerve.
Troy: Okay, come on, who cares if Nora keeps obsessing about us! As long as we're having fun, right! Huh?
Lindsay: Right.
Troy: Alright! Then it's her problem.
Lindsay: It's just it wasn't all that long ago that you were interested in her.
Troy: Ah correction! You thought I was interested in her. I wasn't then and I'm not now.
Lindsay: Well that's not the way that it looked.
Troy: Lindsay how can I NOT be curious about the woman my brother was so obsessed with?
Lindsay: Colin was a psycopath!
Troy: (angrily) Alright fine! Is that what you want to do, talk about Nora all night? Because we can do that! Is that what you want ? Huh!
Lindsay: No.
Troy: Alright then, you're the only woman for me and you know that. Now come over here you bad girl. It's time for your punishment. Come here. (they start kissing and go to the couch. Troy accidently sits on the VCR controller and it turns on Colin's tape with the mute on)
Troy: (he desperately tries to turn the tape off) That's good stuff. Oh . . . Alright you, I better go get dressed or we are never going to make it to our party.
Lindsay: You're right. You go do that. You know what, I'll just watch TV.
Troy: OH NO, no, no. You have to get over there so that the early birds don't leave without buying. You've got to get over there.
Lindsay: Are you trying to get rid of me?
Troy: You know what's going to happen if you're her while I'm getting dressed?
Lindsay: What?
Troy: We're never going to get to the fundraiser.
Lindsay: That would be really bad form.
Troy: Oh that would be bad form. Now come on, let's go. Get out of here
Lindsay: Hurry.
Troy: I will.
Lindsay: Okay, but hurry. Don't dalley! Because this is going to be a really special night for us.
Troy: I promise you that tonight will be a night you'll never forget!
Lindsay: See you there. (she leaves and Nora comes back in)
Nora: OH we are so NOT finished! (Troy grins)
Troy: Great job on the whole confessing to Lindsay thing. If you hadn't, our whole plan would have been ruined.
Nora: Okay, just so you know, I am never going to lie for you again Troy MacIver. And as far as "our" plan is concerned, it's not our plan. I don't even understand it.
Troy: Well the whole thing's right here on the tape. Take a look. (turning on the tape)
Colin: Is everybody happy! (After a bit Nora turns it off)
Nora: (taking the controller from Troy, she turns it off) I can't stand to watch him. How is pretending to be Colin going to get Lindsay to confess?
Troy: You just leave it to me. Make sure you're at the Gallery tonight because something BIG is going to happen. And I know how you love surprises. (she leaves)
At the Gallery
Sam: (seeing Lindsay return) Don't you live here? Where have you been?
Lindsay: I've been at Troy's. And guess who else was there?
Sam: Nora.
Lindsay: Nora, big as life and twice as vicious.
Sam: Alright Lindsay, I'll bite. What was Nora doing at Troy's?
Lindsay: She went over there to to warn him about me. She told him that I'd eat him alive! Isn't that nice?
Sam: Well Nora does have a way of getting to the point.
Lindsay: She's acting like a concerned friend, but I'm not buying it for a minute.
Sam: Is that a fact?
Lindsay: You know what Sam, you can close your eyes to what Nora's doing all you want, but she's not going to ruin this evening for me. (she leaves)
Nora comes up behind Sam.
Nora: Hi! Sorry I'm late. (He turns around to look at her just as Troy walks in. He looks around and goes to Lindsay. Sam and Nora watch him.)
Lindsay: Hey.
Troy: Hey yourself. Wow!
Lindsay: Well look at you! You are like two dinners on a plate.
Troy: Ah thank you. (he kisses her)
Lindsay: Yes, we're working.
Troy: Yes, we are working. Beautifully I might add.
Lindsay: I think I should probably say a few words, don't you?
Troy: You know what, let me take care of that.
Lindsay: Ok.
Troy: (moving to the center of the room) Is everybody comfy! Anyone needs to pour themselves a drink? Powder their noses? Anything! NO! Well alright! Let's get this party started! (Nora looks at him)
