- They say that.Copy !req
83. Well, they're lying.Copy !req
84. I don't want to get over her.Copy !req

101. There's only two
kinds of people in the world.Copy !req
102. There's women, and there's men.Copy !req
103. Summer Finn was a woman.Copy !req
104. Height, average. Weight, average.Copy !req
105. Shoe size, slightly above average.Copy !req
106. For all intents and purposes,Copy !req
107. Summer Finn, jus t another girl.Copy !req
108. Except she wasn't.Copy !req
109. To wit, in 1998,Copy !req

band Belle and Sebastian...Copy !req
111. in her high school yearbook.Copy !req
112. "Color my life with
the chaos of trouble. "Copy !req
113. This spike in Michigan
sales of their album...Copy !req
114. The Boy with the Arab Strap...Copy !req
115. continues to puzzle industry
analys ts.Copy !req
116. Summer's employment at the Daily
Freeze during her sophomore year...Copy !req
117. coincided with an inexplicable
212% increase in revenue.Copy !req
118. Every apartment Summer rented...Copy !req
119. was offered at an average
rate of9.2% below market value.Copy !req
120. And her round-trip commute to work...Copy !req
121. averaged 18.4 double takes per day.Copy !req
122. It was a rare quality,
this "Summer effect".Copy !req
123. Rare, and yet something every
pos tadoles cent male has encountered...Copy !req
124. at leas t once in their lives.Copy !req
125. For Tom Hans en to find it now
in a city of 400,000 offices,Copy !req
126. 91,000 commercial buildings
and 3.8 million people-Copy !req
127. well, that could only be
explained by one thing:Copy !req
128. fate.Copy !req

130. Really?Copy !req
131. Yeah. Patel tried to talk to her in the
copy room. She's totally not having it.Copy !req
132. Maybe she was jus t in a hurry.Copy !req
133. And maybe she's an uppity,
"better than everyone" superskank.Copy !req
134. Damn. I know. She's pretty hot.Copy !req
135. That sucks. Why is it pretty girls...Copy !req
136. think they can treat people

137. Centuries of reinforcement.Copy !req
138. You know what?
Screw her. I don't care.Copy !req
139. If she wants to be that way, fine.Copy !req

best Beatles song ever recorded.Copy !req

527. Nobody loves Ringo Starr.
That's what I love about him.Copy !req
528. No, no.Copy !req
529. ooh, this looks good.Copy !req
530. Gets really good reviews.Copy !req
531. You know what? That looks pretty doable.Copy !req
532. why are you asking me now?
Because this was your idea.Copy !req
533. Put your hand there. Wait one second.Copy !req
534. okay. Three, two, one! One.Copy !req
535. Yeah, the street level
isn't so exciting, but-Copy !req
536. Like, if you look up... SweetCopy !req
537. DispositionCopy !req
538. The Fine Arts Building.Copy !req
539. The guys who designed this, Walker
and Eisen, are... two of my favorites.Copy !req
540. Never Isn't that cool?Copy !req
541. Too soonCopy !req
542. This is my favorite spot. This is?Copy !req
543. This is your favorite spot?Copy !req
544. Right here.Copy !req
545. How come?Copy !req
546. Uh, I don't know. It's kind
of hard to explain, I guess.Copy !req
547. Well, try.Copy !req
548. Um... Well, okay.Copy !req
549. Like, that building... that's, uh...Copy !req
550. That's been there since 1911.Copy !req
551. And that... that's the Continental.
That's L.A.'s first skyscraper.Copy !req
552. It was built in 1904.Copy !req
553. What is that?Copy !req
554. That?Copy !req
555. That's a parking lot. Oh!Copy !req
556. Yeah. That's
- That's also a parking lot.Copy !req
557. That's, um... Yeah.Copy !req
558. There's a lot of beautiful
stuff here too though.Copy !req
559. I don't know. I just... wish
people would notice it more.Copy !req
560. If it were me, then, uh...Copy !req
561. If it were you what?Copy !req
562. I don't know. I think
I'd... make 'em notice.Copy !req
563. How would you make them notice?Copy !req
564. I don't know. There's a lot
of different stuff you could do.Copy !req
565. Show me.Copy !req
566. Please. I don't know anything
about architecture.Copy !req
567. You want me to draw you something? Yeah.Copy !req
568. I don't have any
paper. Well, use my arm.Copy !req
569. Please, I need a tattoo.Copy !req
570. well, let's see your
arm. That's the spirit.Copy !req
571. Well, the buildings need
to be integrated better, so...Copy !req
572. You could maximize light capacity here.Copy !req
573. It's kind of messy.Copy !req
574. That's okay.Copy !req
575. For Tom Hansen, this was
the night where everything changed.Copy !req
576. That wall Summer so often hid behind...Copy !req
577. the wall of distance, of space, of casual...Copy !req
578. that wall was slowly coming down.Copy !req
579. For here was Tom, in her world,Copy !req
580. a place few had been invited
to see with their own eyes.Copy !req
581. And here was Summer, wanting him there.Copy !req
582. Him, no one else.Copy !req
583. Have you ever been in a tornado? No.Copy !req
584. It's that
and my teeth falling out.Copy !req
585. I have that too! You do?Copy !req
586. Yeah! It's so weird. It's
like being an old man.Copy !req
587. What else do you have?Copy !req
588. Um, earthquakes?Copy !req
589. Really? No.Copy !req
590. You know, I dream
sometimes about flying.Copy !req
591. It starts out like I'm
running really, really fast.Copy !req
592. I'm, like, superhuman.Copy !req
593. And the terrain starts to
get really rocky and steep.Copy !req
594. And then I'm running so fast that my
feet aren't even touching the ground.Copy !req
595. And I'm floating, and it's like
this amazing, amazing realness.Copy !req
596. I'm free. I'm safe.Copy !req
597. Then I realize,Copy !req
598. I'm completely alone.Copy !req
599. And then I wake up.Copy !req
600. As he listened,
Tom began to realize...Copy !req
601. that these weren't
stories routinely told.Copy !req
602. These were stories one had
to earn.Copy !req
603. He could feel the wall coming down.Copy !req
604. He wondered if anyone
else had made it this far.Copy !req
605. which is why the next six
words changed everything.Copy !req
606. I've never told anybody that before.Copy !req
607. I guess I'm not just anybody.Copy !req
608. So what are you exactly?Copy !req
609. I don't know. Are you her boyfriend?Copy !req
610. It's not that simple. Sure, it is.Copy !req
611. What, like, are we going
steady? Come on, guys.Copy !req
612. You know, we're... we're
adults. We know how we feel.Copy !req
613. We don't need to put labels on it.Copy !req
614. I mean, "boyfriend,"girlfriend".Copy !req
615. All that stuff is... It's really juvenile.Copy !req
616. You sound gay. You really do.Copy !req
617. Okay, first of all,Copy !req
618. your last girlfriend was Amy
Sussman in the seventh grade,Copy !req
619. and you dated for, like, three hours.Copy !req
620. And you... you've been with
Robyn since what... like 1998?Copy !req
621. '97. '97. See...Copy !req
622. Shoot.Copy !req
623. I don't think the two of you are exactly
authorities on modern relationships.Copy !req
624. So, what should I do?
You should ask her.Copy !req
625. what?Copy !req
626. Well, why rock the boat,
is what I'm thinking.Copy !req
627. I mean, things are going well.Copy !req
628. You start putting labels on it,
that's like the kiss of death.Copy !req
629. It's like saying, "I love you".
Yeah, I know what you mean.Copy !req
630. That's what happened
between me and Sean.Copy !req
631. Who the hell's Sean? My
boyfriend before Mark.Copy !req
632. Who the
- Never mind.Copy !req
633. So, what you're saying... I'm
saying you do want to ask her.Copy !req
634. It's obvious. You're just afraid
you'll get an answer you don't want,Copy !req
635. which will shatter all the illusions of
how great these past few months have been.Copy !req
636. Now look, if it were me,Copy !req
637. I'd find out now before
you show up at her place...Copy !req
638. and, well, she's in bed
with Lars from Norway.Copy !req
639. Who's Lars from Norway?Copy !req
640. Just some guy she met at the gym...Copy !req
641. with Brad Pitt's face and Jesus' abs.Copy !req
642. Wait! No,
Coach. We're not done here.Copy !req
643. Rachel! Look, it's easy, Tom.Copy !req
644. Just don't be a pussy.Copy !req
645. You okay?Copy !req
646. Yeah. You sure?Copy !req
647. Summer, I gotta ask you something.Copy !req
648. what? What are we, um...Copy !req
649. What are we doing? I thought
we were going to the movies.Copy !req
650. Yeah. Nah, I mean,
like, what are we, like-Copy !req
651. What's going on here, with us?Copy !req
652. I don't know.Copy !req
653. Who cares?Copy !req
654. I'm happy. Aren't you happy? Yeah.Copy !req
655. Good.Copy !req
656. London, 1964.Copy !req
657. Those girls knew how to dress.Copy !req
658. Nowadays, it's all
these giant sunglasses...Copy !req
659. and tattoos.Copy !req
660. It's handbags with little dogs in them.Copy !req
661. who okayed this? Some people like it.Copy !req
662. I like how you dress.Copy !req
663. I was thinking about getting a butterfly
tattoo about yea big on my ankle.Copy !req
664. No.Copy !req
665. Oh.Copy !req
666. Yo.Copy !req
667. How's it going?Copy !req
668. Uh, okay.Copy !req
669. You live around here?Copy !req
670. Um, yeah, not too far.Copy !req
671. I've never seen you here before.Copy !req
672. You're not too observant.Copy !req
673. That's funny. You're funny.Copy !req
674. So let me buy you a drink. No, thank you.Copy !req
675. You with this guy? Hey, I'm Tom.Copy !req
676. Whatever. So, come on. One
drink. What are you drinking?Copy !req
677. I said no, thanks.Copy !req
678. You're serious? This guy?Copy !req
679. Hey, buddy
- You know what? Don't be rude.Copy !req
680. I'm flattered, but I'm not interested.Copy !req
681. So why don't you go over there
and leave us alone? Thanks.Copy !req
682. It's a free country.Copy !req
683. I can't believe this is your boyfriend.Copy !req
684. What are you doing?Copy !req
685. It was
really just a crazy thing.Copy !req
686. It happened like... It felt like
it happened fast, but really,Copy !req
687. it... it also felt like it
was happening really slowly,Copy !req
688. like everything all was just...Copy !req
689. I don't know. It doesn't feel like
you think it would...Copy !req
690. Hey, what's the matter?Copy !req
691. I just... I can't believe you.Copy !req
692. You can't believe me?Copy !req
693. You were so completely,
completely uncool in there.Copy !req
694. Wait. Are you mad at me? I
just got my ass kicked for you.Copy !req
695. Oh, really? Was that for
me? Was that for my benefit?Copy !req
696. Yes, it was.Copy !req
697. Okay, well, next time don't,
'cause I don't need your help.Copy !req
698. You know what? I'm really tired.Copy !req
699. Can we talk about this tomorrow?Copy !req
700. No. You know what?Copy !req
701. I'm not going anywhere till
you tell me what's going on.Copy !req
702. Nothing's going on.Copy !req
703. We're just...Copy !req
704. What? We're just what?Copy !req
705. We're just friends. No!
Don't pull that with me!Copy !req
706. Don't even try to...Copy !req
707. This is not how you treat your friend.Copy !req
708. Kissing in the copy room?
Holding hands in IKEA?Copy !req
709. Shower sex? Come on! Friends, my balls!Copy !req
710. I like you, Tom. I just
don't want a relationship...Copy !req
711. well, you're not the only
one that gets a say in this!Copy !req
712. I do too! And I say we're
a couple, goddamn it!Copy !req

716. I'm sorry.Copy !req
717. Look, we don't
have to put a label on it.Copy !req
718. That's fine. I get it.Copy !req
719. But, you know, I just
- I need some consistency.Copy !req
720. I know.Copy !req
721. I need to know that you're not
gonna wake up in the morning...Copy !req
722. and... feel differently.Copy !req
723. And I can't give you that.Copy !req
724. Nobody can.Copy !req
725. That hurt? I'm sorry.Copy !req

825. but today you get a card. "Copy !req
826. Shit, that's good! I know.Copy !req
827. Have you tried "Merry"?Copy !req
828. Wow! That's perfect! Merry! wow!Copy !req
829. We've been stuck on this for an hour.Copy !req
830. Hmm. How about...Copy !req
831. "I love us"?Copy !req
832. Aw.Copy !req
833. I hate Summer.Copy !req
834. I hate her crooked teeth.Copy !req
835. I hate her 1960s haircut.Copy !req
836. I hate her knobby knees.Copy !req
837. And I hate her cockroach-shaped
splotch on her neck.Copy !req
838. I hate the way she smacks
her lips before she talks.Copy !req
839. And I hate the way she
sounds when she laughs.Copy !req
840. She's like the windCopy !req
841. I hate this song!Copy !req
842. Son, you're gonna have
to exit the vehicle.Copy !req
843. I normally don't do blind dates,Copy !req
844. but Paul and Robyn
spoke very highly of you.Copy !req
845. Ah. They said you write greeting cards.Copy !req
846. That's so interesting.
I wanted to write.Copy !req
847. I actually majored
in English in college,Copy !req
848. but what are you gonna
do with that degree?Copy !req
849. I went to Brown. Where
did you go? Alison.Copy !req
850. Hmm?Copy !req
851. Listen, it's great to meet you,Copy !req
852. and... you're a very attractive girl.Copy !req
853. I just wanted to say up
front that this isn't...Copy !req
854. It's not gonna go anywhere. Oh.Copy !req
855. I liked this girl. I mean, I loved her.Copy !req
856. What does she do?Copy !req
857. She took a giant shit on my face.Copy !req
858. Literally. Literally?Copy !req
859. Not literally. That's disgusting. Jesus.Copy !req
860. What's the matter with you?Copy !req
861. The point is,Copy !req
862. I'm messed up. I am.Copy !req
863. You know, on the one
hand, I want to forget her.Copy !req
864. On the other hand,Copy !req
865. I know that she's the only person in the
entire universe that will make me happy.Copy !req
866. Mm-hmm. You ever do this?Copy !req
867. You think back on the times you had with someone,
replay it in your head over and over again,Copy !req
868. and you look for those
first signs of trouble.Copy !req
869. There's two options really.Copy !req
870. Either... she's an evil,Copy !req
871. emotionless, miserable human being,Copy !req
872. or... she's a robot.Copy !req
873. Small Wonder. You know, Vicki.Copy !req
874. That would explain a lot
actually. Can I ask you a question?Copy !req
875. Yeah. She never cheated on you?Copy !req
876. No. Never. She ever take
advantage of you in any way?Copy !req
877. No.Copy !req
878. And she told you up front that
she didn't want a boyfriend.Copy !req
879. Yeah.Copy !req
880. I got a great idea.Copy !req
881. Well, some things
you can explain awayCopy !req
882. But my heartache's in me every dayCopy !req
883. Did you stand by me No, not at allCopy !req
884. Di...Copy !req
885. Oh, fine! Go! That's fine. See ya.Copy !req
886. Waste of time. You don't
look anything like Summer.Copy !req
887. Now departing

893. No, man. It's gonna be all old people.Copy !req
894. Yeah, but you said you were
going. That's why I'm going.Copy !req
895. And that's why I called her
last night, told her I was sick.Copy !req
896. Like a ninja. Dude! I'm gonna... I'm
not gonna know anybody at this thing.Copy !req

964. Okay.Copy !req
965. Oh, at lastCopy !req
966. The skies above are blue
Hey, I was wondering, um...Copy !req
967. I was gonna maybe have
a party on Friday, um,Copy !req
968. on our rooftop that has,
like, a really nice garden,Copy !req
969. if you want to come.Copy !req
970. Yeah. For you are mineCopy !req
971. If you're not busy.Copy !req
972. At last I don't think I will be.Copy !req

974. I guess I just got lucky.Copy !req
975. Um, we met in elementary school.Copy !req
976. In seventh grade we had
the same class schedule,Copy !req
977. and, uh,Copy !req
978. we just clicked, you know?Copy !req
979. Love?Copy !req
980. Shit, I don't know.Copy !req
981. As long as she's cute
and she's willing, right?Copy !req
982. I'm flexible on the cute, so...Copy !req
983. Twenty-one years.Copy !req
984. She's the light that guides me home.Copy !req
985. Yes, that is from one of our cards.Copy !req
986. No. Someone else wrote it.Copy !req
987. Doesn't make it less true.Copy !req
988. I think technically the
"girl of my dreams"...Copy !req
989. would probably have, like, a
really bodacious rack, you know.Copy !req
990. Maybe different hair.Copy !req
991. Probably... You know, she'd probably
be a little more into sports.Copy !req
992. But, um, truthfully,Copy !req
993. Robyn's... Robyn's better
than the girl of my dreams.Copy !req
994. She's real.Copy !req
995. He never, ever
saw it coming at allCopy !req
996. Never, ever
saw it coming at allCopy !req
997. Tom walked to her apartment,Copy !req
998. intoxicated by the
promise of the evening.Copy !req
999. It's all right It's all right
He believed that this time...Copy !req

- Uh, I write greeting cards.Copy !req
1020. Tom could be a really great
architect if he wanted to be.Copy !req
1021. That's unusual.Copy !req
1022. I mean, what made you
go from one to the other?Copy !req
1023. I guess I just figured,Copy !req
1024. why make something
disposable, like a building,Copy !req
1025. when you can make something that
lasts forever, like a greeting card?Copy !req
1026. It's all right It's all rightCopy !req

1047. Hung up and bent on a strangerCopy !req
1048. Just trying to swing
a full-time rideCopy !req
1049. I never knew the cold hand of dangerCopy !req
1050. Till I met this one
and took it insideCopy !req
1051. Now I can't get near itCopy !req
1052. Get a room! Really.
Don't want to hear itCopy !req
1053. My cover's blownCopy !req
1054. I walked in the rain like a droneCopy !req
1055. All the way to MarquetteCopy !req
1056. The infinite petCopy !req
1057. Oh, noCopy !req
1058. No, no, no, no, noCopy !req
1059. Cheaper than all your threatsCopy !req
1060. No, noShit.Copy !req
1061. I've been calling you every
five minutes. Are you okay?Copy !req
1062. I'm great. What happened to you?Copy !req
1063. I don't wanna talk about it.
You always wanna talk about it.Copy !req
1064. Not this. Okay. Well, come on. Let's go.Copy !req
1065. where are we going? It's Thursday!Copy !req
1066. This one says, "Go for it!"Copy !req
1067. And this one says, "You can do it!"Copy !req
1068. we have a whole line of
inspirational photographic cards...Copy !req
1069. featuring Pickles, my cat.Copy !req
1070. I think people will really enjoy them.Copy !req
1071. - Thank you.
- Good job, Rhoda.Copy !req
1072. That's inspirational stuff.Copy !req
1073. Okay. Who's next?Copy !req
1074. We haven't heard from
Sympathy in a while.Copy !req
1075. Hansen? Yeah?Copy !req
1076. The Winter Collection? Do you
have anything to contribute?Copy !req
1077. Uh, no.Copy !req
1078. I really don't.Copy !req
1079. Okay.Copy !req
1080. We'll come back to you. Uh, McKenzie?Copy !req
1081. Actually, you know what? Yes, Tom?Copy !req
1082. Can I say something
about the cat? Well, okay.Copy !req
1083. Yeah, uh, this is...Copy !req
1084. And, Rhoda, no disrespect here,Copy !req
1085. but, um, this is total shit.Copy !req
1086. Tom! "Go for it" and "You can do it"?Copy !req
1087. That's not inspirational.
That's suicidal.Copy !req
1088. If Pickles goes for it right
there, that's a dead cat.Copy !req
1089. These are lies. We're liars.Copy !req
1090. Think about it. Why do
people buy these things?Copy !req
1091. It's not 'cause they
want to say how they feel.Copy !req
1092. People buy cards 'cause they can't say
how they feel, or they're afraid to.Copy !req
1093. We provide the service
that lets them off the hook.Copy !req
1094. You know what? I say, to hell
with it! Let's level with America.Copy !req
1095. At least let them speak
for themselves! Right?Copy !req
1096. I mean, look! What... what
is this? What does it say?Copy !req
1097. "Congratulations on
your new baby. " Right?Copy !req
1098. How 'bout, "Congratulations
on your new baby.Copy !req
1099. - That's it for hanging out.
Nice knowing you. - Sit down, Hansen.Copy !req
1100. How 'bout this one, with all the pretty hearts
on the front? I know where this is going. Yep!Copy !req
1101. "Happy Valentine's Day,
sweetheart. I love you"Copy !req
1102. That sweet? Ain't love grand?Copy !req
1103. This is exactly what I'm talking about.Copy !req
1104. What does that even mean, "love"?Copy !req
1105. Do you know? Do you? Anybody?Copy !req
1106. Tom.Copy !req
1107. If somebody gave me this card,
Mr. Vance, I would eat it.Copy !req
1108. It's... It's these cards, and
the movies, and the pop songs...Copy !req
1109. They're to blame for all the lies...Copy !req
1110. and the heartache, everything.Copy !req
1111. And we're responsible. I'm responsible.Copy !req
1112. I think we do a bad thing here.Copy !req
1113. People should be able to say how
they feel... how they really feel...Copy !req
1114. not, you know, some words that
some strangers put in their mouths.Copy !req
1115. Words like "love"...Copy !req
1116. that don't mean anything.Copy !req
1117. Sorry. I'm sorry. I, uh...Copy !req
1118. I quit. I'm...Copy !req
1119. There's enough bullshit in
the world without my help.Copy !req
1120. All right. Next
we do running drills.Copy !req
1121. Hey, you're sketching again.Copy !req
1122. Yeah, well, just doodling.Copy !req
1123. Okay, Tom. we got 20
seconds. Talk to me. You okay?Copy !req
1124. Yeah, I'm good. I'm great.Copy !req
1125. You know, my friends
are all in love with you.Copy !req
1126. You know, it's like we said.Copy !req
1127. Plenty of other fish in the sea. Thanks.Copy !req
1128. But, uh, those are guppies.Copy !req
1129. Yeah.Copy !req
1130. Hey, Tom? Mmm.Copy !req
1131. Look, I know you think
that she was the one,Copy !req
1132. but I don't.Copy !req
1133. Now, I think you're just
remembering the good stuff.Copy !req
1134. Next time you look back, I, uh...Copy !req
1135. I really think you should look again.Copy !req
1136. It's playing at 5:00.
Do you wanna see it?Copy !req
1137. Um, I don't know. We could
just go back to your place or-Copy !req
1138. No, I really want to see it. Let's go.Copy !req
1139. Time it was and what a time it wasCopy !req
1140. It wasCopy !req
1141. A time of innocenceCopy !req
1142. A time of confidencesCopy !req
1143. You okay? Yeah.Copy !req
1144. What... what is it? The movie?Copy !req
1145. It's nothing. I'm just...
I'm just being stupid.Copy !req
1146. Yeah? Yeah.Copy !req
1147. Preserve your memories
They're all that's left youCopy !req
1148. It pains me we live in a world...Copy !req
1149. where nobody's heard of Spearmint.Copy !req
1150. I've never heard of them. I
put 'em on that mix I made you.Copy !req
1151. They're track one.Copy !req
1152. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
1153. So, what do you wanna do?Copy !req
1154. I think I'm just gonna call it a day.Copy !req
1155. You don't wanna get some
dinner? Are you hungry?Copy !req
1156. You all right?Copy !req
1157. I'm just tired. Okay.Copy !req
1158. I got it. Pancakes!Copy !req
1159. oh, girl, I don't
know all the reasons whyCopy !req
1160. I found the answer
looking in your eyeCopy !req
1161. I go out walking all day longCopy !req

1176. I thought I might see you here.Copy !req
1177. I always loved this place,
ever since you brought me.Copy !req
1178. So I, uh...Copy !req
1179. I guess I should say congratulations.Copy !req
1180. Only if you mean it.Copy !req
1181. Ah. Well, in that case...Copy !req
1182. So, are you okay?Copy !req
1183. I will be, eventually.Copy !req
1184. You wanna... Hmm.Copy !req
1185. I like your suit. Ah, thanks.Copy !req
1186. You look sharp.Copy !req
1187. So do you. Thanks.Copy !req

1190. And you, um...Copy !req
1191. you're married.Copy !req
1192. Yeah. It's crazy, huh?Copy !req

1194. You know, at the wedding
when we were dancing.Copy !req
1195. Well, he hadn't asked me
yet. But he was in your life.Copy !req
1196. Yeah. So why'd you dance with me?Copy !req
1197. 'Cause I wanted to.Copy !req
1198. You just do what you want, don't you?Copy !req
1199. You never wanted to be
anybody's girlfriend,Copy !req
1200. and now you're somebody's wife.Copy !req
1201. Surprised me too.Copy !req
1202. I don't think I'll ever understand that.Copy !req
1203. I mean, it doesn't make sense.Copy !req
1204. It just happened.Copy !req
1205. Right, but that's what I don't
understand. What just happened?Copy !req
1206. I just... I just woke
up one day, and I knew.Copy !req
1207. Knew what?Copy !req
1208. What I was never sure of with you.Copy !req
1209. You know what sucks?Copy !req
1210. Realizing that everything you believe
in is complete and utter bullshit.Copy !req
1211. It sucks. What do you mean?Copy !req
1212. Uh, you know, destiny, and
soul mates, and true love,Copy !req
1213. and all that childhood
fairy tale nonsense.Copy !req
1214. You were right. I...
I should have listened to you.Copy !req
1215. No. Yeah. What? What are you smiling at?Copy !req
1216. Tom. what?Copy !req
1217. What are you looking
at me like that for?Copy !req

1220. I was sitting in a deli
and reading Dorian GrayCopy !req
1221. and... a guy comes up to me...Copy !req
1222. and asked me about it,Copy !req
1223. and... now he's my husband.Copy !req
1224. Yeah. And... so?Copy !req
