How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Page #4
to secure a next-day call back.
Mm-hmm.
She's a very clever minx.
Oops, I'm sorry.
Oh, God. Um...
Oh, sh*t,
we got to clean that up.
Yeah, yeah.
Carefully. Carefully.
Oh, what have we here?
Let us see, let us see.
Oh... Knicks tickets...
Huh.
...for tonight's game.
Delivery, Andie.
Wow, look at those!
Oh, who are those for?
Andie,
oh, my God!
Where do you want these?
Who are these to?
Wait. "100 times... "
...more beautiful... "
Wait.
"... than 100 roses. "
Catchy.
The guy's in advertising.
He can't help it.
So, does this mean he's hooked?
This means he found
the Knicks tickets.
You left the tickets
in the purse?
Yeah.
You are just on a whole
different playing field.
Here you go.
Mm-hmm.
Andie Anderson.
Hey, hey, pretty girl.
Guess what?
I got a really embarrassing
display of white roses.
Well, you are welcome.
Listen, I had a wonderful time
last night.
I have your bag.
Ah, I know.
I can't believe I left it there.
Yeah, well, you must need it
back, what with all the cash,
credit cards, and...
those Knicks tickets
for tonight's game.
Sounds like you've been
peeking through my bag, Ben.
Oh, absolutely not.
Tony, my Art Director,
he's an oaf,
and he accidentally
knocked it over.
Ow, right!
Yeah, I'm a clumsy man.
All right, I'm sorry, though.
I'm going to the game
with somebody else.
Not anymore.
Besides, what?
You think you left your purse
at my place by accident?
No. Subconsciously,
you are dying
to take me to that game.
Denying your subconscious
desires
is extremely dangerous
to your health, young lady.
Does that psycho-babble
really work on anybody?
You tell me.
Andie, you're so bad.
All right, meet me
at the 7th Avenue entrance.
You got it. Bye-bye.
Bye.
And that's how it's done.
And that's how it's done.
Foul on Number 20,
Allan Houston.
Bullshit. Come on, ref!
What is that, ref?
Hey, if you're going to call it,
call it both ways!
Oh, you're soft, man!
You were soft last year,
and you're still soft.
And he's 85% on the line
all year, too.
What was that?
There we go.
One more left. All right.
Come on, bud.
Defense!
Oh, oh, oh!
That's off!
Defense!
Knicks call. 20 second time out.
All right, take your five.
Take a minute...
This is all right.
Got 20 seconds.
Kiss me,
down by the broken treehouse
Swing me
Up on this hanging tire
Bring, bring,
bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail
marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me
Beneath the milky twilight
Lead me,
out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand.
Knicks' ball.
- Whoo!
- Bring it back.
Charge!
Work your arm, baby.
Go, baby.
Hold 'em up!
Charge!
Benny?
Hold 'em up!
Work it, work it. Yeah?
Benny, I'm kind
of thirsty.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
- Yeah, yeah!
- Benny, could you get me a soda?
Yeah, just let me
tell you right now...
I'm parched.
...there's a minute and nine
left in the game,
- and then I'll go up and get it.
- I'm really thirsty.
I'll go get it.
Hey, hey, hey. You want...
you want it right now?
Yeah.
And no ice, Ben.
Thanks, Benny.
Lawrence Funderburke.
Oh, man!
Here's Sprewell with a fake.
Gets the step on Christie.
What a crossover...
Whoo, my man.
Coke, no ice.
Next line over, pal.
No ice. Hey, buddy?
Small coke, no ice.
Small coke, no ice.
Okay, you got it.
...beyond the three-point line,
fires!
Ah... no!
Man, don't let him have
that shot!
No. Does that mean
no, you don't want ice,
or no, you want ice?
No. No ice.
Coke, no ice.
And Don Chaney
wants to talk it over...
Oh, did you want a small?
No, I-I want that one
right there.
You know, for 25 cents more,
you could get a jumbo?
Okay, you take that right there.
Keep the change.
All right.
Charge!
Excuse me.
Ah...
Excuse me.
Come on! Score!
Come on, baby,
drive into the net!
Right there, right there.
Oh, thanks!
Hey, hold him, hold him.
Move it.
Set your pick! Watch
the three seconds! Traveling!
Ben, it's not diet.
- Huh? What?
- Ben, it's not diet.
Please, I'm so thirsty.
- All right, all right.
- With a lime.
- All right, okay, I got it.
- With a lime. Okay.
Shoot it!
Sprewell for the win!
Yes!
That was Sprewell!
It's all over!
The Knicks
have defeated the Kings
in the final seconds...
...Sprewell with
the game-winning shot,
and the Knicks over Sacramento:
Oh, what an incredible game.
I've never seen a more exciting
game-ending play before.
Wow, well, neither have I.
Hey, hey, hey.
It's too bad you missed it.
Yep, it's too bad.
One second.
So...
you as nice as you seem, Ben?
No.
Good. Neither am I.
Oh, here.
Fifth and 12th, please.
See you later.
Horseshit.
More horseshit.
The horseshit continues.
Horseshit. Come on, people.
We've got to do a lot better
than this
if we're going to com...
What?!
There's a phone call
for Mr. Barry.
Yeah, can you take a message,
Candi?
Uh, Mr. Barry, it's Andie.
- Make it quick.
- I will.
It's line two, Mr. Barry.
Thank you.
Hello.
It's me!
Listen, I'm in the middle
of a meeting.
Can I call you back
in just a minute?
I miss you,
Benny boo-boo,
boo-boo-boo.
Well, you know what?
I miss you, too.
Mm-hmm.
You busy tonight?
Uh, no. No, I'm not.
Why don't we catch a movie
or somethin'?
A movie... my choice?!
Your choice.
Oh, I'm so excited!
Okay. I'll call you later.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Jonah!
Dad!
I always wanted a man
like Tom Hanks.
It's my favorite movie
of all time.
Yeah, me, too.
Shh!
What if something
happened to you?
What if I couldn't get to you?
What are you thinking about?
Nothing. I'm watching the movie.
Yeah, but what's on your mind?
Shh!
I like this movie.
Oh, so I suppose your mind
is a complete blank.
You are my family,
you're all I have.
Who is she?
Shh!
Who's who?
The girl you're thinking about.
Can't hear.
- I'm not thinking about a girl.
- Aah!
You can't watch Meg Ryan
- for two hours
- Shh!
And not be thinking
about another girl.
Uh...
You want to know what
I'm thinking about?
Yes.
I'm sitting here thinking
about how damn beautiful
you are.
That's what I'm thinking about.
Come on, let's watch this movie,
it's good.
Aww...
Benji.
Oh, sweetie!
I love sharing this with you.
Yeah.
Can't hear and can't see.
If you don't shut up,
my boyfriend over here
is going to come back there
and pummel your ass.
Put a muzzle on your old lady
the next time
you bring her out in public.
What?!
What is that?!
Do something about...
- You, outside.
- Shh!
Keep it down!
Keep it down!
I mean, have a little class,
all right?
You want to talk like that
to me, we can work it out,
but not to a lady, all right?
Ben, Ben, B-B-Ben, he's huge.
I got it. I'm not looking to get
in a fight with the guy, okay?
He owes you an apology.
Oh! Oh, whoa!
Now, I'm going to go
back inside,
and finish watching
Sleepless in Seattle.
Nobody screw with me.
Son of a... b*tch.
- Oh, Ben.
- Aah!
Are you okay?
- Oh...
