Bree: When are you coming back to the hospital?

Xander: In a couple of days. Just having some time off. Why you miss me?

Xander: Ah my apologies. I will take you to lunch in two days.

Bree: How about now?

Xander: Sure. I can make time.

Bree: Make time? Mate I better be taking up all your time!

Xander: Ah does that mean I can take you out on a real date?

Bree: We’ve talked about this. I just need time. I’m not really to move on.

Xander: Your not ready to move on? Or your not ready to pick me?

Bree: If this is about Remi…

Xander: It’s not. Because that wasn’t who I think your waiting for…

Bree: What are you talking about?

Xander: You know who I’m talking about!

Bree: I really don’t. Like at all.

Xander: Really? Honesty?

Bree: Honesty. Who do you think I like?

Xander: I think you like Cash…
