Laura,
Emma is "spoiled". Last weekend, I caught her in a compromising
position with Huxley. Of course, I had to pull Huxley's coil wire to
prevent any further shenanigans! After the show I had a long talk with
Hux regarding his flirting with girls that are 17 years younger than
him.
So if Nigel is still attracted to Emma, I think her virtue is still
intact.
