En Garde

En Garde is the twelfth episode of the third season of Moriah Blake. It takes place on the fifteenth of July, 2011.

Plot
The day after the Donovans and McCrimmons get home from their respective trips, Patrick and Scott hang out. After Patrick makes an uncharacteristically lewd joke about Emily, Scott challenges him to a duel. They fight, only to have Scott realize that Patrick has been taking fencing lessons for five years. They get Scott's butler to take them to Patrick's fencing center, which Scott is not impressed by. They go to Scott's fencing center, which is laid out like a night club.

After this, they return to Scott's mansion, where they play video games for a while. Tom Woodsmith messages Patrick, warning him that he has to date Robin or he'll lose her as a friend. The final act ends with Emily entering and continuing a dialogue in which she reveals that she knows of Scott's feelings for Ashley, and doesn't have enough self-esteem to care.

In the TAG, Patrick and Ashley practice fencing at their house. Scott watches some of the leaked footage. Emily asks him if he loves her, and he says yes. She asks if he loves Ashley more, and he doesn't reply, prompting her to walk away, depressed.

Characters
The only named characters appearing in this episode are Patrick, Scott, Joey McCrimmon (although his name was not yet revealed), Ashley, and Emily. One unnamed character—Scott's fencing instructor—also appears.

Title
The title of this episode is En Garde, which is a common expression in fencing, denoting the start of a bout.

Symbolism
In this episode, Patrick finds the Infinity Glove in Scott's car and puts it in his backpack. It can be assumed that Dave accidentally dropped it the last time he was with Scott.

The leaked footage from Season One's Critical Feedback makes an appearance, when Scott watches it on his widescreen television. Whether or not the footage has been taken down yet is still unclear; however, it is hinted that several characters downloaded all or parts of it.
