–[Storybrooke]–
(Graham is playing darts at Granny's diner. He throws two darts and hits the deer both times. Ruby and Logan is waiting tables and Sidney is sitting in one of the booths.)
Sidney: Nice shot, chief. I bet you twenty bucks you can't do it again.
(Graham throws another dart and hits the deer again.)
Graham: Next round's on him.
(Emma enters through another door.)
Ruby: Emma! What can I get you?
Emma: Nothing.
(Emma walks towards the diner's exit. Graham throws a dart in her direction, which lands right next to her head.)
Emma: What the hell? You could've hit me!
Graham: I never miss. You've been avoiding me since last night, when you saw me-
Emma: Leaving the Mayor? And yes, that is a euphemism. I'm not avoiding you, Graham, I just have no interest in having this conversation. It's your life – I really don't care.
(Emma leaves the diner and Graham follows her outside.)
Graham: If you don't care, then why are you so upset?
Emma: I'm not upset.
Graham: If that were true, you'd be at the bar with me, having a drink, and not running away.
Emma: It's none of my business. Really.
Graham: Look, can we please talk about this? I need you to understand.
Emma: Why?
Graham: I don't know. Maybe so I can understand?
Emma: You need an analysis, go talk to Archie.
Graham: I want to talk to you.
Emma: Well, your bad judgment is your problem – not mine.
Graham: You don't know what it's like with her. I don't feel anything! Can you understand that?
Emma: Bad relationship? Yeah, I understand a bad relationship. I just don't want to talk about yours.
Graham: Look, I know you and Regina have your own issues and... And I should have told you about that before you took the job.
Emma: Yeah, why the secrecy? We're all adults. You can do whatever you want.
Graham: Because I... I didn't want you to look at me the way you are now.
Emma: Why do you care how I look at you?
Graham: Because.
Emma: What?
(Graham kisses Emma. As soon as he does, he has a flashback to his life in Fairy Tale World. He sees a wolf with two differently coloured eyes.)
Emma: What the hell was that?
Graham: Did you see that?
Emma: How much have you been drinking? That was way over the line.
Graham: I'm sorry, I just-
Emma: What? You what?
Graham: I need to feel something.
Emma: Listen to me, Graham. You are drunk and full of regret. I get it. But whatever it is you are looking to feel, I can tell you one thing – you're not getting it with me.
(Emma walks across the street and leaves Graham alone.)
