In this scene, Hallie starts to feel incredibly guilty over her cheating on Dylan with Nick and decides to admit that this happened to him. He is washing dishes (?) and doesn't seem to feel her confession worth stopping and paying attention to. She gets frustrated, and asks him if he even cares, to which his reply is to explain to her about his affair with Kati calmly and like it doesn't matter. Hallie gets very upset, and breaks up with him, telling him that she wanted to be with Nick all along. He still appears as though he doesn't care, but when she leaves he begins to fall apart and sing If I Loved You (reprise) from Carousel, along with a CD. She, on the other hand, appears very upset at first but as she's leaving Dylan's house she takes out her cell phone and calls Nick.

INT. House. Day.
Dylan, washing dishes. Long shot of dish-washing (there is a lot of soap). There is a portable CD player on the counter (Chadwick!). Eventually he turns on "If I Loved You", from Carousel. He may turn it on and off several times. Gentle knock on the door.

DYLAN
Come in.

As he is saying this, Hallie comes in the door. She looks sheepish. Dylan looks relieved to see her.

DYLAN
Oh, good, you're here. I've been meaning to talk to you for quite a while.

Hallie doesn't quite make eye contact. Dylan smiles at her. She comes forward and turns off the CD player.

HALLIE
We need to talk.

DYLAN
(Playfully.) We're talking right now, aren't we?

HALLIE
No, Toby, we haven't in a long time. (Pause.) I cheated on you. With William.

Dylan abruptly turns away and goes back to washing dishes.

HALLIE
Hello? Aren't you going to say anything.

Dylan mutters something inaudible under the rush of the water.

HALLIE
I'm sorry?

DYLAN
I said that's fine, because I cheated on you with Emily. I wasn't sure I should tell you about it.

HALLIE
When was this?

DYLAN
I don't
