Never forget, Never forgive
(Lindsay is on the phone) Lindsay: Jen, hi. It�s mom. I wanted to know if everything went alright with the [baby] shower. Call me, I love you. Bye. (puts phone down) Assistant: The messenger called. He said the package was delivered as instructed. Lindsay (smiling evilly): Perfect� (Troy is having an excellent day but thanks to Lindsay, it�s about to get ruined. He opens the door and finds the package. He takes it, looks at the card and reads it aloud.) Troy: �Never forget�? Forget what? (opens the box and finds the talisman. He looks up with a worried look on his face.) (Lindsay is walking through the halls of her gallery and looks at a picture of the talisman she ordered.) FLASHBACK OF REBELS AT THE PALACE: Lindsay: That thing really makes wishes come true? Troy: That�s right. Hold out your hand. (he takes off his talisman and she holds out her right hand) No, the left one; it�s closest to your heart FLASHBACK CLOSES Lindsay: Oh, it�s gonna� make my wishes come true, alright. It�s going to destroy you tonight. (Troy walks into his loft.) FLASHBACK: Joanna: Troy, is that you? Troy: Yes, it�s me. FLASHBACK CLOSES. (Emily walks in.) Emily: What�s with leaving the door open? (Troy keeps his back towards her and he�s a little too quite. That�s when she becomes suspicious.) �Troy?... (She eyes the talisman.) What are you doing with that? I thought you threw it away. Troy: (In trauma) I did. I think this must be a copy. Emily: �You think? You mean you�re not the one who had it made? Troy: No. Somebody just sent it to me with this note. (He hands it to her.) Emily: Who did this? (Lindsay, durf!) Troy: There�s only one person I can think of. Lindsay. She�s been playing games with my head for weeks, now. Emily: She really knows about Joanna, now. (*sarcastically* No, really?!) Troy: Yeah, there�s no other explanation. I mean, first the painting and then the stunt she pulled at the country club. Yeah, Emily. She definitely knows about Joanna. (Will you stop saying your dead wife�s name 40 times in one sentence? No wonder someone found out!) Emily: So what are you going to do? Troy: I am going to put an end to this once and for all. (He opens the door and look! He sees someone we were expecting to see; Nora! Commercials.) Nora: Surprise! (she kisses him. *sigh*) Um, I�m sorry, is there something wrong? Troy: Uh, no. (LIAR!!!!) I just�I wasn�t expecting you. That�s all. Nora: Oh, I should�ve obviously called. Um, I just came by to see if you�ve gotten my present. Troy: �wait� you sent it? Nora: Well, I thought you needed a new medical bag. Yours was too ratty to develop the new DeVilBiss grant winner. Troy: (laughing nervously) You sent me the new medical bag, that�s right. I just--- Nora: Are you alright? (No, not really.) Troy: No, I- I�m fine. I�m fine. I�ve just lately been preoccupied. Nora: Oh, okay. Troy: One of my patients just took a turn for the worse. So I�m gonna� go to the hospital and check in and--- Nora: Okay. (gosh, she�s so understanding! That�s why everyone loves her!) Troy: I love you� (whispers it) I love you� (He kisses her. Oh!!!!!!! Sweet!!!! Makes me giggle all over!) See you later, okay? Nora: Mm-hmm. Troy: Okay (He leaves and he closes the door. He looks all upset.) Nora: (to Emily): I- I�ve never seen Troy that agitated� or you quite that agitated either. Okay, what�s going on? Emily, is this about a patient or is it about something else? (Commercial) Lindsay: (to her assistant): Becky? Becky: Yes? Lindsay: I was about to go. I was wondering if you can shut off the lights for me please. Becky: Of course. Lindsay: Oh, and can you do me another favor? Give this to doctor MacIver when he arrives (she gives her an envelope) Becky: It�s pretty late. Are you sure he�ll come? Lindsay: Oh, I�m sure. (ooooh, smart�) Emily: (struggling to tell the truth) No, I- I- I don�t know anything more than you do, Nora. Nora: You don�t? Emily: No, I- I came just before you did and Troy was already in a state. Nora: He gave you no clues to why? Emily: Sorry. You know, I have this really bi exam. I have to study so� I�ll talk to you later. Nora: �bye. (Emily leaves, also traumatized.) (Nora sits on the couch and finds the note and �present� if that�s what you call it.) Nora: �Never forget, never forgive�? (Troy walks into Lindsay�s gallery, all sexy and pissed off!) Troy: Linds- AY!!!! Lindsay where are you?! Becky: May I help you? Troy: Yeah, I�m looking for Lindsay Rappaport. Where is she? Becky: Yeah, uh, she left a little while ago. Troy: I�ll bet. Where�d she go? Becky: She didn�t say. (She goes over to take the phone but he grabs it from her and it accidentally falls onto the floor.) Troy: I don�t think I�m making myself clear. I want to know where Lindsay left. Becky: (All scared) : I- I don�t know. Troy: Fine. (He takes a deep breath, sighs and rests his thumb on his forehead to think a little.) Becky: Are, are you Dr. MacIver? Troy: Yes! Yes I am, why? Becky: Before she left, Ms. Rappaport told me to give this to you when you came by. (Slowly, he takes the envelope and takes out a paper, that�s entitled: NEVER FORGET NEVER FORGIVE!!! Commercials come) (Troy comes home, all upset and turns the light on to reveal Lindsay already in his loft.) Lindsay: Looking for me? (Emily is at school library and tries to call Troy.) Emily: Oh, come on, Troy. Pick up. Troy�s answering machine: Hey, this is Troy MacIver. You�ve reached my cell-phone. Please leave a message after the tone. Emily: Hi, Troy. It�s Em. Listen, I�m really worried about you. I don�t know where you are or what�s going on. So please call me, okay? (Turns of phone and sees Nora) Hi� what are you doing here? Nora: I called the hospital. He isn�t there. Emily: He isn�t? Nora: Spill the beans, Emily. What�s going on? (Commercials.) Troy: What kind of games are you playing? Lindsay: Oh, I assure you this is no game. (She sits down.) Troy: Look, I don�t know what you know or more like what you think you know--- Lindsay: Oh, believe me, I know everything. I know about Joanna, your Joanna, your wife? And I know about your lies and every single one of them. (He glares at her in a disgusted way and the episode fades into a �Stay tuned for scenes on the next one life to live. Episode ends.)
