Conor : [CONOR walks back into the main room where MICHELLE is sitting on the couch. There are two whiskies on the table in front of her] I see you've been to New York.
Michelle : Yeah, have you?
Conor : No, I nearly went.
Michelle : You should go, it's a cool place.
Conor : I should have done a lot of things.
Michelle : Oh, like what?
Conor : Oh you know things.
[MICHELLE smiles. CONOR points to a scar MICHELLE has between her eyebrows]
Conor : What's that?
Michelle : What?
Conor : That.
Michelle : [CONOR makes a gesture towards her forehead. MICHELLE smiles] Do you want the truth or a lie?
Conor : Whatever?
Michelle : I was bitten by a swan.
Conor : Bitten by a swan, yeah?
[CONOR leans over and kisses her tenderly]

Michelle : It's always been in my head. My Dad said I'd be a good lawyer. Argumentative kid, apparently.
Conor : Do you like it?
Michelle : It's good money.
Conor : That's not what I asked.
Michelle : Ah you know, you win some, you lose some.
Conor : I'd say you don't like losing.
Michelle : No I don't. You ask a lot of questions.
Conor : I'm interested.
Michelle : In law?
Conor : What do you think?
Michelle : I think there's more to you than meets the eye.
Conor : Do you?
Michelle : Maybe. My turn.
Conor : Ah look I'll save you the bother. Male, early thirties, works in pub, smoker. Seeks similar, no time wasters kinda thing.
[MICHELLE laughs]
Conor : I meet a lot of interesting people in my job too. Every day there's people coming in telling me all kinds of stuff. New faces, new stories. I think people find it easier to say things to strangers.
Michelle : Do you like strangers?
Conor : Have you got any sweets?
[MICHELLE laughs]
