1.  Two weeks ago
I had my picture taken... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
2.  Look up. Good, good. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
3.  It was a promotional photo for my column
scheduled to run on the side of a bus. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
4.  I had misgivings. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
5.  Which were mollified
when they said I could keep the dress. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
6.  Friday night. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
7.  In lieu of any actual social life of their own, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
8.  Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte
had all stopped by to live vicariously 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
9.  through my first official date with Mr Big. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
10.  Carrie! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
11.  Honey it's fabulous. Bravo! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
12.  It's tits on toast, baby.
But you make it work. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
13.  It's the "naked dress". You're obviously
gonna have sex with him tonight. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
14.  - It's our first date!
- She's just gonna look like sex. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
15.  - That's right, I'm just the trailer.
- Please, if it happens, it happens. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
16.  - Bottoms up.
- Wait a second! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
17.  If you're serious about this guy,
you can't sleep on the first date. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
18.  Oh, God.
Here she goes again with The Rules. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
19.  The women who wrote that book,
couldn't get laid. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
20.  They constructed this whole bullshit theory
to make women who can get laid feel bad. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
21.  But if you're serious about a guy,
keep him waiting for at least five dates. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
22.  - Oh, you've gone up.
- Yes. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
23.  The number of dates that you wait to have
sex is proportional to your age. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
24.  Forget the math,
don't fuck on a first date, you're fine. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
25.  - Third date.
- Too soon! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
26.  A guy can just as easily dump you
if you fuck him on the first date 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
27.  - as he can on the 10th.
- When have you ever been on a 10th? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
28.  - By then you're emotionally involved.
- Exactly! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
29.  Isn't it better to find out if the sex is good
before anybody's feelings get hurt? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
30.  - It's OK to feel hurt.
- And you handle that so well! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
31.  - There is a case for restraint.
- When did you become a Victorian? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
32.  The Victorians valued romance. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
33.  True romance
cannot exist without good sex. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
34.  And yet you can have good sex
with someone you don't respect. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
35.  Or even remember. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
36.  All right, well,
ladies I'm just going to dinner. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
37.  - Goodnight.
- Goodbye, have fun. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
38.  Bye! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
39.  Truth is I was dying to sleep with him. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
40.  But isn't delayed gratification
the definition of maturity? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
41.  - Interesting dress.
- Meaning? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
42.  Interesting dress. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
43.  - Don't worry. I can restrain myself.
- So can I. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
44.  I can't be hemmed in by rules.
I go with my emotions. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
45.  Some of the greatest romances of all time
began with sex on the first date... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
46.  I bet. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
47.  I will not be the first one to speak. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
48.  And if he never calls me again,
I'll always think of him fondly... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
49.  as an asshole. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
50.  That was really... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
51.  Can you believe we,
on the first date? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
52.  I mean, I didn't plan that, you know. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
53.  What do you think? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
54.  I thought it was pretty fucking great.
But what do I know? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
55.  You feel like getting some Szechwan? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
56.  Had Mr Big discovered my weakness
for great sex and greasy Chinese? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
57.  Or was going out to dinner a diversionary
tactic to keep me from spending the night? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
58.  Before I was able to completely
indulge my paranoia... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
59.  It was my pal, Mike Singer.
We've known each other for ten years, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
60.  but never had sex, because we want
to know each other for another ten. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
61.  - Hey!
- Carrie, what are you doing here? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
62.  I'm with...
I'll tell you all about it later. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
63.  - You look great.
- Not too naked? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
64.  Just naked enough. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
65.  Hi, I'm Carrie Bradshaw.
I'm an old friend of Mike's. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
66.  I'm Libby Biyalick.
It's so nice to finally meet a friend. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
67.  - So, I'll call you.
- OK, great. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
68.  Well, have a good dinner. Nice to meet you. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
69.  I left wondering why Mike didn't want
to introduce me to his date. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
70.  That very same night, something absolutely
amazing happened to Miranda. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
71.  Oh, my God! I'm so sorry. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
72.  She met someone in gym class. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
73.  - Are you sure you're OK?
- I'm fine. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
74.  So, what exactly
about my head pissed you off? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
75.  - I wish there was something I could do.
- You could buy me dinner sometime. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
76.  And a CAT scan. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
77.  His name was Ted Baker.
32, a sports medicine doctor 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
78.  with an apartment overlooking
the Natural History Museum. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
79.  Three prior serious relationships,
none resulting in marriage. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
80.  A kiss to make it better. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
81.  So, really, can I call you sometime? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
82.  Sure. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
83.  He left a message
on my machine when I got home. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
84.  - He wants to go out this week.
- That's fantastic! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
85.  No, it's too quick. Maybe that kick
in his head scrambled his brains. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
86.  No, too quick is sleeping with him
on the first date. That's too quick. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
87.  You both got excited and you went for it.
Stop blaming yourself. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
88.  No, I don't blame myself,
I blame the dress. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
89.  The dress led me on, it had a life of its own. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
90.  We went to this restaurant afterwards,
you'll never guess who I ran into. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
91.  - Who?
- Mike Singer, on a date. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
92.  - The whole world's in love.
- I'm not sure, I don't know. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
93.  He was acting very weird. Like he didn't
want me to meet her or something. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
94.  What's her name? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
95.  Her name was Libby Biyalick. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
96.  Mike told me everything while I helped
him pick sheets at Bed Bath And Beyond. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
97.  - So, how long have you been seeing her?
- A while. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
98.  - Is this a painful topic?
- It's just, she's not someone I date openly. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
99.  - Why, is she married?
- No. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
100.  - Is she a cousin?
- No. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
101.  The thing is, she's smart,
incredibly sweet, and the sex is great. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
102.  - She's just not the one I see myself with.
- Why not? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
103.  It was about three months ago. Mike had
been dumped by Fiona Brooks, a cellist, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
104.  who he was trying to forget
as quickly as possible. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
105.  They had both loved to cook, shopping
for the week was a Saturday morning ritual. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
106.  So he was feeling
particularly vulnerable when... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
107.  Care to try some aged sheep's milk cheese
from the Tyrolean Alps? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
108.  Thanks. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
109.  - It's good.
- It's made by monks. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
110.  - Really?
- Trappist monks. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
111.  Fresh goat cheese from the Napa Valley. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
112.  It's delicious. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
113.  L'Explorateur.
It's a triple cream from France. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
114.  Mike found himself very uninhibited. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
115.  Since he didn't think Libby was
that gorgeous, there wasn't any pressure. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
116.  Next morning, he woke up
and felt at ease, very relaxed. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
117.  I'm a creative director
of an ad agency but... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
118.  eventually I'd love to have my own shop. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
119.  I'd love to have my own shop, too.
Well, cheese shop, I mean. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
120.  She was one of the only women he'd
ever met who he felt he could just be with. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
121.  - So what's the problem?
- Look, she's not beautiful, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
122.  we don't have a lot in common.
Most of her friends are in dairy. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
123.  But she's warm, and unpretentious and... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
124.  it is the best sex I've ever had in my life. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
125.  What are you afraid of?
What other people are going to think? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
126.  She's not the right woman
for me in the larger sense. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
127.  So I keep her a secret. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
128.  I couldn't decide whether Mike
was being shallow or honest. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
129.  But the question nagged me for days. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
130.  How many of us out there
are having great sex 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
131.  with people we're ashamed
to introduce to our friends? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
132.  Have I ever had fabulous sex
with someone I didn't want to admit to? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
133.  Did I tell you about that jazz musician
who lived with his mother in Queens? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
134.  - Yeah, Alex.
- What about the window washer? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
135.  The one who doesn't wear
any underwear? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
136.  I met this gorgeous kid
in Spy Bar last year. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
137.  He turned out to be in high school. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
138.  Evidently, Samantha had had lots of sex, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
139.  none of which was secret. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
140.  Fine, it just proves
I'm not ashamed of anyone I've slept with. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
141.  OK, here it is. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
142.  Oh, you look... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
143.  Naked. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
144.  There it was, the dress that
led me down the garden path with Mr Big. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
145.  - I shouldn't be embarrassed?
- No, you look fabulous! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
146.  - There's no such thing as bad publicity.
- You would say that, you're a publicist. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
147.  We must go someplace fabulous where
we can toast you, where the bus goes by. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
148.  - You can invite Mr Big.
- No, I don't think so. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
149.  I haven't heard from him
since we spent the night together. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
150.  Sweetie, forget about him.
You're going to be on the side of a bus. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
151.  Ten million men will be drooling over you
every morning on their way to work. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
152.  It's the best personal ad
I've ever seen in my life. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
153.  Samantha had a particular knack for turning
a desperate situation into a hopeless one. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
154.  Speaking of secret sex,
did Charlotte ever tell you about the rabbi? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
155.  The rabbi? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
156.  - Excuse me?
- You know who I'm talking about. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
157.  I cannot believe
you're interrogating me at work! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
158.  I'm sorry, it's my fault. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
159.  Anyway, he wasn't a rabbi.
He was a Hasidic folk artist from Brooklyn. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
160.  Close enough. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
161.  Charlotte had seen Shmuel's work,
and arranged to meet him at his studio. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
162.  These are outstanding, so much life. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
163.  - You have a beautiful way with light.
- Thank you. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
164.  - Now this one is really special.
- That's my yeshiva. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
165.  I wanted to capture
the exuberance of youth. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
166.  Charlotte was intoxicated by his talent,
strangeness, and the smell of his wool. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
167.  Magical. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
168.  It was so sexy, so forbidden. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
169.  Daddy's little Episcopalian princess
in the arms of one of God's chosen people. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
170.  We would talk about art,
sex and the Torah. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
171.  - Why didn't you introduce him to anybody?
- I was embarrassed. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
172.  I couldn't really date him.
And he couldn't date me. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
173.  - What would people think?
- If the sex is good, who cares? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
174.  You can't put this in your column.
Promise! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
175.  I promise. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
176.  Was secret sex
the ultimate form of intimacy, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
177.  since it existed in a pure state,
exempt from the judgment of the world? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
178.  Or is it just another way
to deny our feelings 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
179.  and emotionally
compartmentalise our lives? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
180.  - Hello?
- Do you miss me yet? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
181.  - Who is this?
- How have you been? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
182.  Great. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
183.  - Fabulous. Fantastic, actually, and you?
- Well, at the risk of sounding trite, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
184.  - I can't stop thinking about you.
- I adore trite.

185.  Listen, we should have a real first date. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
186.  You know?
The traditional American type. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
187.  Dinner and a movie? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
188.  Of course, knowing us,
we'll skip the movie. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
189.  As long as we don't skip dinner. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
190.  What a relief. I had just escaped
the sex on the first date curse. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
191.  That weekend, I was with a man whose
name I wanted to shout from the rooftops. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
192.  Let me get this straight... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
193.  - Your picture is going to be on a bus.
- That's right. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
194.  A cross town bus,
or a downtown bus? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
195.  The M2. It goes right down 5th. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
196.  That's a good line. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
197.  I'm getting together a group of friends
tomorrow afternoon to watch it go by. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
198.  I thought, maybe
if you weren't doing anything... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
199.  Hey, how are you? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
200.  Hey, how are you?
It's good to see you. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
201.  - You remember Phyllis.
- Of course, Phyllis, how are you? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
202.  - Everything good?
- Yeah, everything's dandy. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
203.  Well, that's what I hear. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
204.  - So, good to see you.
- Good to see you again. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
205.  Bye-bye, cheers. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
206.  - Who was that?
- Some guy I skied with in Aspen. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
207.  I didn't understand.
Had I become the invisible woman? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
208.  I tried not to let it bother me. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
209.  I also tried not to let it bother me
that he took me back to Fung Wa, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
210.  scene of our post-coital dinner. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
211.  - I can't make your party tomorrow.
- I wanted to introduce you to my friends. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
212.  Well, I'll be home later if you miss me. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
213.  As I surveyed the room, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
214.  I realised it smelled like a cheap date
you don't want anyone to meet. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
215.  I told Mr Big I was on a deadline
and had to get home. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
216.  - Hello?
- Listen, I have a question. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
217.  Of all the restaurants in Manhattan,
why take Libby to Fung Wa? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
218.  It's pretty obscure. Not much chance
of seeing anybody I know. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
219.  You mean, it's a place men take
women they don't want to be seen with. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
220.  Yes, it is perfect for that. Oh, sorry. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
221.  The evidence was mounting. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
222.  Was it possible that
I had become Mr Big's secret sex girl? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
223.  The next morning, Miranda discovered
a shocking sex secret of her own. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
224.  She had just spent
a wonderful night with Ted, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
225.  who had to leave early to catch a flight
to DC for a spinal conference. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
226.  - I can go home, it's no big deal.
- No, stay, it's 6:00am. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
227.  I'll be back tonight.
Want to do something? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
228.  - I'd love to.
- All right, I'll call you at work. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
229.  Have a good flight. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
230.  Miranda waited for the dead bolt to drop,
and then ransacked Ted's apartment 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
231.  for pictures of old girlfriends. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
232.  She was not at all prepared
for what she found. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
233.  Yeah? You feel your cock
where it wants to be every night? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
234.  Every night when you come home
and everything's done in the house... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
235.  I don't know what to do. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
236.  I can't admit to finding this, but now
I don't know if I want to see him again. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
237.  How can you judge him
until you spank him? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
238.  - I'm only kidding.
- But obviously this is what he's into. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
239.  Maybe it's just his fantasy life. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
240.  Later, the cream of New York gathered
to toast the maiden voyage of my bus. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
241.  - Where's Mr Big?
- He couldn't make it. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
242.  - What do you mean he couldn't make it?
- I don't know, it's a work thing. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
243.  - But this is your bus party!
- I told you, you shouldn't have... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
244.  No, never mind. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
245.  What? He's not here because
I slept with him on the first date? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
246.  Basically, yes. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
247.  If you sleep with a man on the first date,
the relationship can't be more than sex. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
248.  I didn't want to admit she was right.
Here it comes! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
249.  I just wanted to see my bus
and get the hell out of there. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
250.  Oh, shit. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
251.  - Carrie, hi, did I miss it?
- Hi, not yet, no. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
252.  - I thought you were bringing Libby...
- Oh, yeah. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
253.  I finally asked her to join me in public
and she turns me down. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
254.  Why? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
255.  She's met somebody else, who doesn't
have my problems with intimacy. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
256.  - I'm sorry.
- Quiet, here you come! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
257.  Don't worry sweetie, don't worry. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
258.  Nobody in New York notices a bus
until it's about to hit them. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
259.  That's right. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
260.  Meanwhile, Miranda spent another
wonderful evening with Ted 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
261.  and began to re-evaluate
her options. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
262.  That was one of the most amazing
meals I've ever had. Thank you. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
263.  My pleasure. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
264.  You know, I missed you today. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
265.  You did? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
266.  I guess I've just been waiting
all this time for a good kick in the head. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
267.  And I thought all you really wanted
was a good spanking. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
268.  - Excuse me?
- You heard me. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
269.  Ted didn't take Miranda
home that night. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
270.  He never took her calls
or returned her messages. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
271.  And she never saw him
at the gym again. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
272.  Very late that night, fuelled by
a massive quantity of champagne, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
273.  I decided to say goodbye to Mr Big. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
274.  I just came here to tell you that
if you're embarrassed or ashamed 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
275.  to be involved with me in any way,
that we can no longer see each other. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
276.  The truth is, I blamed myself. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
277.  I wore the naked dress on our first date,
I slept with him too fast, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
278.  and now I'm on a 5th Avenue bus
with a penis on my head. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
279.  - What are you talking about?
- You won't introduce me to your friends, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
280.  you take me to that restaurant where men
take women they don't want to be seen, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
281.  you won't meet my friends. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
282.  You have me in a niche.
Certain events, restaurants, certain people. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
283.  Like I'm only a particular fragment 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
284.  of the kind of person
you think that you should be dating. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
285.  But I've only gotten to know
a particular fragment. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
286.  Although, I'm beginning to know more. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
287.  No, this is not me. This is me
reacting to your perception of me. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
288.  Oh, OK. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
289.  Well... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
290.  I think Fung Wa's
is the best Chinese food in the city, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
291.  so that's why we went there. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
292.  The guy we met in the street, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
293.  I couldn't remember his name,
which possibly means I have Alzheimer's. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
294.  So that's what that was about. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
295.  And this afternoon I had
courtside tickets to the Knicks, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
296.  and that's all folks! 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
297.  I should have been jumping for joy, 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
298.  but I only felt a hard knot of fear. 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
299.  So you and me... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
300.  Maybe this is for real? 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
301.  Could be... 
			  
			Copy !req 
			
		
	
		
			
302.  English (en)
