Elizabeth looked at Nora, who took her hand in hers and smiled.
Nora: Its ok you know... to talk about it. I think I may know more about what your going through then you think.
Elizabeth: It just gets hard sometimes. I mean I think I've moved on and then something happens and I feel like I'm right back in tht park. I was only 15 when it happened. I liked to put on this show that I was experienced and all... but it was only because I was trying to impress this guy.
Nora: Lucky right?
Elizabeth: How did you know?
Nora: Well you've been talking non stop about him since we arrived here. I just kind of figured it had to do with him.
Elizabeth: You've got good instincts.
Nora(Pausing): You were a virgin weren't you?
Elizabeth(Wiping the tears from her face): Yeah. And it still hurts even now.
Nora: I'm sorry.
Elizabeth: You know I can still feel how helpless that night made me feel. How lost I still feel sometimes.
Nora: Like you can't breathe... like the whole world is moving in slow motion and you can't find your voice. You feel unsteady and weak. And that smell... you'll always rememer that smell... of fear, of anger, of emptiness, and no matter what you do, you feel like you can never rid yourself of the filth.
Elizabeth: Yeah. Thats it. Thats exactly it.
Nora(Pausing): I'm going to tell you something I never told anyone... not even Bo.
Elizabeth: Must be serious.
Nora: It is. It was the worst night of my life. (Pause) I was a little older then you Elizabeth but the feelings were still the same. The Filth... the helplessness... the guilt... I was in college when I was raped. and I'll tell you one thing right now. I never thought I'd survive it. I was a wreck for a long time afterwards and I didn't think I'd ever go back to the way things were before my life was rearranged forever.
Elizabeth: So how did you ever survive?
Nora: My sister. She was my rock... That was before we drifted apart. And I had some pretty intense counseling. I finally learned not to blame myself. But then...
Elizabeth: Then what? Did something happen?
Nora: I found out I was pregnant...

Adam looked around the room, trying to find a way out of this, knowing there wasn't.
Aidan: Come on Adam. Your wasting time. If you have something to say then just say it.
Kendall: Unless, of course you want to be thrown in jail for obstraction of justice.
Adam: Don't get your pants in a knot. I'm getting to it.
pause
You ever hear of a guy named Jacob Smith?
Aidan(Pretending to be thinking): Yeah. The slimiest of slimeballs I've heard. He was known for this rape case a while back. Got off scott free. Never heard what happened to the woman. They never even released her name. But I hear she went kind of nutty on him .
Adam: She stabbed him with a letter opener when he got away with what he did to her. He survived and her father threatened him into leaving town. But the girl was never the same.
Aidan: Ok? So what's the point in all of this?
Adam: You want to know who the girl was?
Kendall: You can't be serious...
Adam: Oh I'm very serious. The girl that Jacob raped was Nora Buchanan... and that was more than twenty years ago.
Aidan: Are you saying he's back to punish her for stabbing him? Dosn't make a whole lot of sense. What about Elizabeth? Why would he kidnap Elizabeth too?
Adam: That's the question it? Maybe you should consider the possibilty that Nora and Elizabeth have more in common then you think.

Lucky looked at Bo, who almost had tears in his eyes.
Bo: When I first met Nora, I didn't really like her you know. She was so uptight. We clashed on more then one occasion if you know what I mean.
Lucky: Sounds familiar...
(They both laughed slightly)
Bo: But I don't know. Somewhere along the lines she became more then that. The first time I REALLY looked at her, I saw this like enchanting light in her eyes. I used to call her my beacon for that reason. She just lit up when ever she smiled. And she had like a million different ones. When I looked at her, I felt like I could do anything. as long as she was with me, I knew that everything was possible.
Lucky: Sounds like you really loved her.
Bo: Not loved... love. I tried to convince myself that we were through. That this incredible love story we had was just that... a story... and it had reached its ending. But thats just it Lucky. I don't think it will ever be over with us. When I look at her now, I still see the same woman who captured my heart just by looking at me. I see the same woman who just makes me so incredibly happy just by being who she is. And I see the same woman who would have given anything if I could just say " I forgive you."
Lucky: She sounds pretty amazing.
Bo: She is. She makes my heart skip a beat every time I look at her. and I just can't imagine my life without her... and I can never love anyone even half as much as I love her. I know that now. I know her heart like the back of my hand and she knows mine. Thats the gretest feeling in the world.
Lucky: I know. I feel the same way about Elizabeth. Even though we've moved on with our lives over the years... had other loves... she was always right there with me. Elizabeth is the best person I know. I mean she's been through her fair share of heartbreak over the years... and she's not by any means perfect... but she always tries to do the right thing. And the one thing I couldn't seem to understand until now is why I never could seem to move on without her, no matter how much I denied it.
Bo: What was it that they had that nobody else did over the years?
Bo and Lucky: My heart.
