(AT THE DINING TABLE)
Eliot: What happened with Nate?

Sophie: I think he's gonna rest.
(Eliot looks to Hardison and Parker)

Sophie: What?

Eliot: Nothing...it's just that...well no matter what happens he doesn't rest.

Sophie: What if he wants to-
Eliot(cuts her off): Soph, trust me, he's not gonna rest.

Sophie(sighs): Anyways, he wanted me to tell Sterling that the man who shot was hired by Ian to kill him and Sterling because he wanted him out of the business.

Hardison: Why did he want to kill Nate, then?
Sophie: Nate said that Ian had always been mad since he quit.

Eliot: And because Nate knows all the IYS' corrupt ways, too.

Sterling: So what are we gonna do?
Eliot: Well I don't think Nate's ready yet, but Sophie could ask him.

Sophie: Yeah I'll go.

(Sophie goes back into Nate room to see the bed messed up and the desks situated in an ariel map)

(Nate is standing in the middle and doesn't notice Sophie walk in. Nate is mumbling things to himself and his back is facing Sophie)

Sophie(curious and a little scared): Nate?

(Sophie walks over to Nate and touches his shoulder. he jumps at her touch)

Nate(breathing heavily): Soph. God, what are you doing?!

Sophie: I could be asking you the same thing.
Nate: I...I'm remodeling my room...

Sophie: Really Nate, your remodeling? You expect me to believe that?

(A pause where Nate looks like he was thinking of a lie)
Nate(deciding to tell the truth): I...I-I n-need to think, okay? I can't f-focus.

(Nate rubs his eyes again)

Sophie: Nate, you're stuttering- what're you onto?

Nate: I-I'm...Im working on a plan to get inside the IYS.

Sophie: You don't have to do it right now, Nate. Do it when you're ready.

(Nate covers his eyes with his hands)
Sophie: Why don't you be normal and rest?

Nate(confused): I am normal, Soph.

Sophie(smiling): Normal people don't pretend to be normal.

(Nate stood quiet as he tried to piece together what Sophie said)

Nate: I don't need rest, if anything I need coffee.
(Nate moves to go downstairs but Sophie stops him)

Sophie: Don't worry. I'll get t. I'll make sure you won't spike it.

Nate(frowns and rubs the back of his head): Heh, why would you think I would do that?

Sophie(smiles): Gee, Nate, I don't know.
(Sophie leaves to get the coffee)
