Maggie: Why are you fighting?

Declan: I don’t want to get into it.

Maggie: Elizabeth thinks it’s over a girl.

Declan: Mags, we said we wouldn’t talk about things like that with each other.

Maggie: So it is over a girl?

Declan: Maggie, it’s the fourth rule.

Maggie: Is this why you’ve been ghosting me? Is it serious?

Declan: I’m not ghosting you. It’s not serious.

Maggie: You’re free to see other people, Declan. That was always the deal.

Declan: I’m aware, Maggie.

Maggie: Well, I’m just saying you don’t have to ghost me over it.

Declan: Does it look like I’m ghosting you? I’m literally texting you right now.

Maggie: Fine. Fine. I hope things go well with her.

Declan: Stop

Maggie: What? I’m just congratulating you. Can’t I do that?

Declan: Seriously, Maggie. Stop. We have rules for a reason.

Maggie: Fine.
