Nicholas: Your so glad that Courtney is so understanding. I begged her to press charges, but she is one understanding great person. But I am not as understanding.

Emily: I am sorry. What do you want me to day?

Nichols: The child Courtney is carrying could be mind and you could have caused her to miscarry her second child.

Emily: Courtney has been pushing my buttons since you and her started this hole thing.

Nicholas: What?

Courtney: I am going to kill my brother. You have a life you don't need to guard your ex-wife.

Jason: Its friend. Nicholas isn't going to be able to protect you and your baby.

Courtney: Max could do it. Plus once Nicholas comes, I don't want you two to fight.

Jason: Well he shouldn't cheated on my sister.

Carly: Do you think its a good idea to have Jason guarding Courtney?

Sonny: Well since Sam's been gone he needs something to work on.

Carly: I am just sorry I wasn't there for him at funeral.

Sonny: He knows why you couldn't, he is going to be fine.

Carly: Yeah, we just need to be there for him.

Sonny: Yeah your right.

Carly: I am going to see Courtney

The Police Station

Nicholas: Courtney has tip-toed around this whole town. I am sorry it hurts you but Courtney has been trying not to hurt anyone. She is finally happy why can't you let her be?

Emily: Your right. I will leave you two alone. But don't expect us to be friends.

Nicholas: I wouldn't dare.

The Loft

Courtney: It was just a bad time. I am sorry I coused people pain. But Nicholas was there and I haven't felt that good since we'd been together.

Jason: It's not your fault. Nicholas should have he;ped Emily through her rape.

Courtney: It's hard dealing with a rape alone.

Jason: How would you know?

Courtney: (The door bell rings) I'd better get that.

Carly: Hey Courtney.

Courtney: Hey come on in. Are you hungry, I was ready to make some pasta.

Carly: Sure. Maybe you can teach me a couple of things.

Courtney: Sure. Jason I don't have any beer you go get some. Max is outside the door.

Jason: Fine. I can take the hint.
