Will:
I was rejecting a pass from her while trying to talk her out of what they call at TMI a 'take-down piece' of one of the desperate housewives of New Jersey.

Charlie:
Real Housewives.

Will:
Who gives a shit.

Charlie:
Definitely not me.

Will:
And the tuxedo's off the rack.

Charlie:
Did you grope her?

Will:
No! I-I-I-- I gently touched her to block her as she was coming in for a kiss. I blocked her. I was the victim of an unwanted sexual advance. But more important, I was fighting the good fight.

Charlie:
Why were you fighting any fight?

Will:
I was trying to get her to not write the take-down piece.

Charlie:
Why?

Will:
Why?

Charlie:
Yeah.

Will:
I'll tell you why. Because I'm on a mission to civilize.

Charlie:
How's it going so far?

Will:
Progress is slow, but I'm in it for the long haul.

Charlie:
You want Publicity to draft a statement?

Will:
About the mission?

Charlie:
The Page Six piece.

Will:
Absolutely not.

Charlie:
Good.

Will:
What did you call me up here for?

Charlie:
Mostly to laugh at you.
