Regrettable, but necessary. When Lincoln walks into her office, he has a very different idea about what he wants from her. He finds her fascinating and has every intention of sticking around for more than one night. But he discovers Georgiana to be quite a prickly individual, and she has no intention of giving him what he wants. So it's a good thing that Lincoln's a determined fellow... and he's not going to budge either.
