Becky: So
then what happened?
Annie: So then I left, obviously.
Becky: You were standing in the middle of a street?
Annie: You know that dream where you're walking down the
street naked and everyone is looking at you?
Becky: I love that dream.
Annie: That was nothing
compared to this
humiliation. Nothing.
Becky: But he saw you, right?
Annie: He saw me.
Becky: You were face to face.
Annie: He said "Hello".
Becky: He said "Hello", and what did you say?
Annie: All I could say was "hello".
Becky: Oh my God.
Woman on television: All I could say was "hello".
Becky: It's a sign.
Annie: It's a sign that I have watched this movie too many
times. Such stupid... From the minute I listened to that stupid
girl's show on the radio. I've been a complete jerk .
Becky: You are not a jerk.
Annie: Thank you. I'm an idiot.
Becky: You don't know who she was, Annie.
Annie: I saw her. I have a picture of her. I'll show you a
picture of her. That detective in Seattle sent me a picture of
her. Here. See. Huh? That's exactly what she looks like.
Becky: This is a picture of someone's back.
Annie: Well, it was her and he was
crazy about her. What's
this? This is from Seattle. Becky...
Becky: So I mailed your letter.
Annie: "Dear Annie, thanks for your letter. It was great. You
sound neat. We're very excited about meeting you in New York on
Valentine's Day and seeing if we are M-F-E-O. See you soon.
Sleepless in Seattle.
Becky: M-F-E-O?
Annie: "Made for each other".
Becky: It's cute. It's like a little clue. So he can't write.
Big deal.
Verbal ability is a
highly over-rated thing in a guy and our
pathetic need for it is what gets us into so much trouble.
Annie: I am going to run back to Walter's arms, if he'll
still have me. |
