Matthew

What would you do?

Luke

I'd keep both of them and hope they don't find out about each other.

Matthew
[laughs]

Asshole!

Luke

So she had the same name, same perfume, same shoe size. That’s so hot. Or, or maybe that’s just creepy.

Matthew

I think it’s a little bit of both, actually.

Matthew

I'm going to China tonight, I'm practically engaged-- do I need to remind you?

Luke

The lies we tell ourselves.

Matthew

You're right. This doesn't make any sense. One minute I'm here looking at rings, and the next I'm here, doing this.

Luke

Whoa. Whoa, looking at rings? I didn't realize you were that serious.

Matthew

Apparently, I'm not.

Luke

See, that is how the universe works. The minute you make a decision, you decide on anything, along comes temptation.

Matthew

What would you do?

Luke

I'd keep both of them and hope they don't find out about each other.

Matthew
[laughs]

That's perfect. Asshole! I have to find out why she left.

Luke

She got scared. Everyone gets scared.

Matthew

No, not Lisa. She wouldn't have left without an explanation. Without some sort of letter or a call or something. She's not like that. I mean, something must've happened, and whatever it was...

Luke

Screwed you up big time.

Matthew
[pause]

I know she loved me.

Matthew

What do you think, Alex? I mean you know the whole story.

Alex

It's easy to stand back and judge. You don't now anything about this woman.

Matthew

I know that she has no conscience, and no regard for anyone but herself. I mean, what else do I need to know?

Alex

You make yourself into such a victim. Nobody made you be with her. You can't even see what a hypocrite you're being.

Matthew

I'm being a hypocrite? How am I being a hypocrite?

Alex

Yes, you are!

Luke

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You, guys. Hey, relax.

Matthew

No, Luke. Hey, hold on. Alex, I'd like for you to explain to me on how I'm being a hypocrite.

Alex

Who's to say, this woman hasn't been in love with you for a really long time? And now that she found you again, she wasn't about to let you go twice.

Matthew

What?

Alex

Maybe... The first time she saw you, maybe she felt the way you did the first time you saw Lisa. You remember that. Love makes you do crazy things. Insane things. Things in a million years you never thought you'd see yourself do. But here you are doin' it. Can't help it.
