Mercy: hey Sam so I think we should talk
Sam: Well if it ain't my favorite socialite...what do you wanna' talk about?
Mercy: About the rumors... stupid gossip blogs
Sam: Screw 'em. We know what's true and what's not.
Mercy: Do we though? Because I don't really know whats true when it comes to you and me
Sam: You like me. Also true.
Mercy: You can't like me Sam we keep having this conversation
Sam: I can't control how I feel Mercedes, no more than you can.
Sam: I want us. I want to see where this can go. Don't you want to be with someone who wants to be with you too? Someone who actually cares? Because the odds are against us with these arranged marriages.
Mercy: I can control how I feel because I have too. And so do you.
Mercy: Sam don't do that. I can not handle that right now. Not on top of everything else. We both have people who actually care. Katherine is amazing and I know if you let her, she would be great for you. And Jack, okay maybe he could be a little more forceful but I owe it to him to see if we could be happy
Sam: I don't have to do anything and neither do you so don't feed me that bull.
Sam: She's nice, but she's not you. You want me to be with her? Fine. But it won't be real because I'll be thinking of you through and through. Hoping and wishing it was really you.
Sam: Owe it to him? You don't owe "Jack" shit except maybe the truth about how you feel.
Mercy: Sam don't do this to me, please.
Mercy: I never expected to fall for you. And now I am trying to do the right thing here, I can't go against my father.
Sam: You telling me putting your happiness first would be going against your father?
Mercy: Jackson is who was chosen to be my husband
Sam: But he's not who YOU chose.
Mercy: I haven't chosen anyone
Sam: Really? Because your actions say something different every time we're around each other.
Sam: But go ahead and live your fake life.
Mercy: You know me so well right? Then you tell me what I want
Sam: I obviously know nothing. You don't have to worry about me bothering you anymore Miss Jones.
Mercy: You have to understand
Sam: I understand perfectly well.
Mercy: You're mad at me now?
Sam: You don't care. Just consider your problem handled. You can go tell the blogs you're squeaky clean.
Mercy: I do care! Thats the problem!
Sam: Caring isn't usually considered a problem. But THIS problem is going away now. Bye.
Sam: For what? Leading me on? Pretending to want something with me and then backing out? No biggie.
Mercy: Thats not fair. I was never pretending
Sam: Sure as hell seems like it. Maybe you're just making room for Matt? Who really knows anymore.
Mercy: You know what you are an ass. I am trying my best to be honest with you about my feelings because out of all the people in my life, I don't want to hurt you, I don't want to lie to you or lead you on.
Mercy: But you know what you are right, this conversation is over.
Sam: Yet that's exactly what You did. You lied to me. You lead me on and you hurt me. And for what? Temporary acceptance from daddy? After the marriage it'll be something else. Something else to make HIM happy. Something else to benefit HIM. But what do I know, right?
Sam: Cool. It was nice knowing you.
Mercy: DO NOT TALK ABOUT MY FATHER LIKE THAT!
Mercy: I never meant to lead you on and you know that, I never expected to feel for you what I do but yeah whatever.
Sam: I'M GOING TO TELL IT LIKE IT IS WHETHER YOU WANNA HEAR IT OR NOT
Sam: I didn't know that. If I knew that then we wouldn't be in this predicament.
Sam: I hope no one feels for me the way you feel for me because this feels like shit. But again, no big deal.
Mercy: I can't do this with you not anymore.
Sam: You keep saying that.
Mercy: But if you think that you are the only one who is upset you are wrong
