How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Page #3

a woman fall in love with you

by then?

Ten days?

Any woman, anywhere, anytime?

Any single, available,

straight woman... yes.

Yes.

I'm not trying

to trick you, Ben.

In fact, we'll choose

a woman right here,

right now, in this bar,

and then you decide.

Ooh.

So, who's the lucky girl?

Okay...

Let's see here. Ooh,

there's that blonde babe

in the leopard print.

Whoa, ho, ho!

She looks like fun.

Be nice, ladies.

Or... wow,

Miss Babylon Five.

Now, she's on the prowl.

No.

Her.

Her who?

Her, in the gray dress.

Blonde hair. Pretty smile.

Her?

Done.

What?

Done.

Done.

See the guy next

to the horrible guy

in the green shirt that I would

never even consider? Okay?

- Hmm!

- Very cute.

Right?

- Good.

- All right?

Here I go!

Okay, you're on.

But here are the stakes.

After I win this bet,

this pitch is mine.

Agreed.

- Phil?

- Agreed.

You come to that party

with a girl

that's really in love

with you, Ben...

you can make the pitch

to the DeLauers.

But, Phillip, you can't...

I've made up my mind.

To the DeLauers.

To the DeLauers.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

Cheers.

- Mm-mm.

- Mm-mm.

I was just wondering

if you find...

...exciting?

Yes. My wife and I love

New York,

especially this time of year.

She'd been here before,

and I'd...

- Hi.

- Hi.

This is Andie.

Hi. Um...

Oh!

You guys enjoy New York.

Okay.

Thanks. We will.

Yeah. Nice meet...

nice meeting you.

Eww!

Good luck!

Thank you, Phil.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

ladies...

I have a bet to win.

Ta-ta.

Now do you want to tell

me what's going on?

You don't recognize her?

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Andie Anderson.

I'm Benjamin Barry.

Cute.

Thank you.

I meant your name.

Thank you two times.

Unattached?

Currently.

Likewise.

Surprising.

Psycho?

Rarely.

Hmm.

Interested?

Perhaps.

Hungry?

Starving.

- Leaving.

- Now?

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Okay.

One second.

I'll meet you at the door.

Hey, hey, guys.

What?

I think I got one.

He was married.

No, not him. It's the guy by

the door, but don't-don't look.

Oh, guys!

Oh! He is really cute!

I'm going to check this one out

and see if he's the keeper.

Okay.

And if he is?

Tomorrow night, we'll...

Flip the switch.

Doing this for you.

Well, good luck.

Be safe.

Call me.

Mm...

Drama, drama, drama.

...you

Wanna get to know you...

No, no, no. This one.

And you get to wear

the goofy-looking helmet.

This won't look goofy on me.

It looks goofy

on just about everybody.

Look at you.

That's pretty damn cute.

There you go.

You ready to go

for a ride, Andie?

Are you ready to go

for a ride, Ben?

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Get it? Get it?

Yeah.

Mmm. So, what do you think?

About the food, or... you?

Both.

This is delicious...

Mm-hmm.

...and I'm still deciding.

Anything I can do to help?

Yeah, you could answer some

questions for me, actually.

"Some" sounds

a little too indefinite.

I'll give you three.

What do you do for a living?

I'm in advertising.

I work mostly

with alcoholic beverage

and athletic equipment

companies,

and I'm trying to break into

the jewelry market right now.

Hmm...

Saving the world,

one keg party at a time?

Yeah, something like that.

What about you?

What about me?

Have I seen your work?

I work at Composure.

Fastest-growing women's

fashion magazine in the country.

I'm impressed.

Saving the world,

one shop-a-holic at a time, eh?

Hey, all right.

Look here, Sparky,

I have a Master's

in journalism

from Columbia.

My boss loves me, and if I do it

her way for a while,

I can write about

anything I want.

Like shoes?

No.

No.

Like alcoholic beverages

and athletic gear.

Touch. Very nice.

So, you think you got me

all figured out, eh?

Almost.

Still got one last question.

Shoot.

True or false:

All's fair in love and war.

True.

Great answer.

Good question.

Welcome.

Oh, nice place.

Thank you.

Very... tidy.

Can I get you

a cold beer?

Sure.

Can I use your restroom?

Yeah, you can.

It's up the stairs,

through the bedroom.

You are, aren't you?

The first night.

I can't believe you!

Michelle, I'm not going

to sleep with him.

Oh, you are such a hussy.

You can't hide

those lying eyes.

No, no, because I can practice

some self-control,

unlike some people I know.

Oh, really?

That hurts, kind of.

Get up up on the dance floor

Give that man

what he askin' for

'Cuz I feel like...

I'm going to dangle the bait...

Wait, what's the bait?

I'm the bait, Michelle.

- Oh...

- Yeah.

Okay, I'm with you. Then what?

It's gettin' hot in here

So hot

So take off all your clothes

- Mmm... Diamond...

- I am getting so hot

- is no one-night stand.

- I want to take my clothes off

It's gettin' hot in here

So hot

So take off all...

A diamond

is a long-term commitment.

Take notes.

You better be prepared...

I can't talk right now.

I have to go.

Call me later, you slut.

Okay. Bye.

Whatever you want to do

Is all right with me...

'Cause you make me feel

- There you go.

- Thank you.

You're welcome.

...so brand-new

I want to spend

Ooh.

My life with you

Let me say that since, baby

Since we've been together

Ooh, loving you forever

Is what I need

Let me be the one you come...

Okay.

...running to

I'll never be untrue

Oh, baby, let's

Let's stay together,

together

Loving you whether, whether

Times are good

Hey, hey, let's not go too fast,

okay?

Happy or sad

Yeah.

Yeah.

Ooh... ooh... yeah...

Whether times are good or bad

Happy or sad

We're moving too fast.

I... you're right.

It's-it's too fast.

...and break up

- Okay.

- Oh, turn around and make up

I just can't see

You'd never do that to me

- Too fast.

- Too fast.

Yeah.

I want you to respect me.

Loving you is all I see

I do.

Okay.

And I want your respect.

I respect you for respecting me.

I respect that.

Good.

Good night, Andie Anderson.

Oh, you are already

falling in love with me.

I'm going to make you wish

you were dead.

Poor guy.

Of all the women

Spears and Green

could have thrown at me,

this one is amazing.

Hanging with her for ten days

is going to be no problem.

Right, so, it's only

nine days longer

than you've ever spent

with any other chick, huh?

That's why I didn't go

for the gold immediately.

Oh.

I'm taking my time.

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Ten days is a marathon?

Okay, so it's more like

the 3,000-meter hurdle.

The point is, she's already

on the ropes, guys.

Wow, that-that's a lot

of sports analogies.

That it?

- That-that's it?

- That's it.

Have you looked inside?

No.

Do you have an ethical problem

with rifling through

a woman's purse?

Uh, yeah, I guess I do.

Well, it's hardly a purse, dude.

It's more like a clutch

or something.

Guys, a woman's purse,

all right...

it's her secret source of power.

All right?

There-there are many dark

and dangerous things in there

that we, the male species,

should know nothing about.

Oh. Unless, of course, she, uh,

left it behind intentionally
