Viki and Dorian are both leaned up against the wall of the elevator. They
are still holding hands.
Viki: Dorian, I don't mind holding your hand but could you please not squeeze so tight? You're cutting off my circulation.
Dorian (lets go): Sorry.
Viki: You didn't have to let go.
Dorian: I'm fine. (She looks around for a minute and then grabs Viki's hand again) Maybe I'm not fine.
Viki (squeezes her hand): It's okay. You will be happy to know that I have come up with a topic for small talk.
Dorian: What is it?
Viki: Decorating. I love what you've done with your house.
Dorian: Thank you. David deserves most of the credit, but don't tell him I said that.
Viki: You're secret is safe with me. I just have one question.
Dorian: What?
Viki: What is that picture over the fireplace?
Dorian: I have no idea. Every time I see it I think it's a dirty mirror and then I realize it is not.
Viki: Why'd you pick it out?
Dorian: I didn't. Adriana and Starr did. They assured me it was cool. So, I figured, why not? It's their house too.
Viki: Isn't that better?
Dorian: Isn't what better?
Viki: Isn't it better to live in your house than to live in mine?
Dorian: I don't want to live in your house.
Viki: Yes, you do. You tried to take it away from me when you married Mitch.
Dorian: That was your fault. You deserved it.
Viki: What do you mean it was my fault? What could I possibly have done to you to deserve it? We were on good terms when you left.
Dorian: Exactly.
Viki (very confused): What? That doesn't make any sense.
Dorian: You said it yourself. We were on good terms when I left. We hugged. We toasted each other.
Viki: And that made you want to take my house away?
Dorian: What was the first thing you did when you saw me after I came back?
Viki (thinks for a minute): I slapped you.
Dorian: Exactly. I married Mitch to destroy him from the inside. I was going to give Llanfair back to you.
Viki: You were?
Dorian: Yes, I was. But you assumed the worst so I decided to give you exactly what you expected. I knew there was no way I could win, but I decided to drag it out as long as I could to make you suffer.
Viki: Was it worth it?
Dorian: Making you suffer?
Viki: No, marrying Mitch.
Dorian: I paid for it. I got trapped in the secret room at Llanfair. He put me in a box. There was no air. I couldn't breath. (Dorian is starting to get upset again.)
Viki: There's plenty of air in here. This isn't a box.
Dorian (takes a deep breath and calms herself down): I could've driven him crazy if Jessica hadn't tipped him off.
Viki: I can't believe you kidnapped her.
Dorian: I didn't have any choice. She told him what I was doing. He was going to kill me. She got herself involved, not me. Todd's the one you should really be mad at. He forced her into killing Mitch.
Viki: I think we should probably not talk about Todd.
Dorian: Oh, that's right. We'll talk about all the bad things I've done. But lets not bash your precious Todd. Well, I want to talk about him. We're stuck here and there's a few things I want to get off my chest. And for once, you are going to have to listen.
Viki: Dorian, I don't mind holding your hand but could you please not squeeze so tight? You're cutting off my circulation.
