This takes place in a Chinese restaurant and is incredibly awkward. The characters are playing a second game of [[Sincerity]]. At the time of this scene, all the characters are involved in emotional turmoil (for example, [[Nick]] and [[Hallie]] have feelings for each other that are interfering in [[Dylan]] and Hallie's relationship, while [[Alex]] is attempting to seduce [[Aimee]], which is against the best interests of both [[Kati]] and Dylan). Therefore, there is a lot of silence. In fact, perhaps most of the scene will be silent. There is also a lot of glaring. | This takes place in a Chinese restaurant and is incredibly awkward.
