Seamus was definitely appreciative of his friend's cooperation. If all went according to plan, this would be the score at Seamus 2, Tracey Davis only 1 (and not a terribly impressive 1 at that). He and Alicia could do a tag-team version of the story for Adrian at some later time, hopefully with humorous hand gestures and riotous laughter.
"In that case, I'm havin' expensive whiskey, an' ye're gettin' one o' these ridiculous frou-frou girly drinks," he announced. A waitress came by, and Seamus ordered a glass of cold Stor Mo Chroidh Irish Firewhiskey for himself, and something called a Pink Peach Paradise Sparkler for Alicia. "An' by the way," he jokingly told Alicia as the waitress departed, "I'll be takin' a sip o' that, even though I'm obviously too manly to order anything called a Pink Peach Paradise."
