#7315 Dorn's romance randomly re-activated! Help! (ToB spoilers)

Dorn was pretty cool with me rejecting him the first time around in SoA, and I've been doing the Viconia romance ever since. However, now that I'm in ToB, he seems to have the wrong idea.

I've just started Hexxat's ToB quest, and Dorn just sprung the "Yaga-Shura is dead, how are we going to celebrate tonight?" romance talk on me. My possible responses range from sleeping with him, to promising him more later, to calling him a sociopath and fighting him. None appeal to me.

I checked my global variables, and his romance is at 3, which I think means it's over. Viconia's is still at 2, which I think means ongoing. Reloading does not help.

What can be done? I assume I'll be asked to upload a save, but I'm not sure how, so any instruction in that regard would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Playing totally mod-free.

    Go to Documents\Baldur's Gate II - Enhanced Edition\save, find your save data (a folder with a .GAM and a .SAV in it), zip it, and click "Attach a save" below the comment box.

    Let's see if that worked. Assuming it did, Dorn should begin conversation shortly upon loading.

    This should be fixed in the next patch.

    I'll give that a shot when I get back to my computer. Odd that you can't reproduce Dorn forcing the conversation. The conversation began after I sent Dorn back to alternate the doors in he puzzle, could sending him out of sight range then back in have triggered something?

    I was able to reproduce it after my initial post. Opening the door to the room with the necrotic barrier is supposed to trigger an interjection from Dorn, but this conversation fires instead because the .dlg only checks for the above variable. Normally, the Yaga-Shura talk is fired by Dorn's script, which does check his romance status.

    This all seemed to have worked, thanks!

    Note that, now that you've determined the reason for this mistaken dialogue line, I realize that this is the second time such a bug has happened to me. Earlier in this tomb, Viconia spouted off some nonsensical line about fighting against Shar (I assume that's supposed to happen when I go after Sendai?) immediately before she complained about webbing.

    How do you stop this bug?! I am romancing Neera and while I am traveling I go to the clearing where the PLanetar appears but before that Dorn says the line "Yaga-Shura is dead..."! I don't want this to affect my romance with Neera :\

    Find out here how to activate the console.
    This will only work BEFORE he talks to you with such dialog.
