精彩对白

Brenda: What about internet dating? Would you do that? Would you try something like that?

Holly: No.

Brenda: Well, there's that speed dating thing.

Holly: Sounds awful.

Brenda: Actually, there's this guy, and he's a friend of my cousin's. And when they came...

Holly: Brenda? I can't talk about it here. Sorry. OK? Hey, kids, who wants a... Ooh. Who wants a juice? Do you? Yeah?

Kid: I do.

Holly: Do you? Very good. There you are. Wow. Lots of tigers.

Taylor: Why is there a moon man at the zoo?

Holly: Oh, you've got a very beautiful imagination, Artie.

Taylor: No, Mum. Look!

Doug: I wanna take you to the moon.

Kid: We can't hear you, moon man!

Doug: I wanna take you to the moon.

Taylor: He wants to go to Mumbai.

Doug: No, the moon.

Holly: Go home, Doug. This isn't the place, OK?

Doug: I wanna take you to the moon.

Taylor: He wants to go soon!

Doug: The moon!

Taylor: This June.

Holly: I don't wanna go to Mumbai. I don't wanna go anywhere with you, OK?

Doug: I wanna take you to the moon!

Holly: You can't take me to the moon, Doug.

Woman: Why not? He's got the suit. Yeah, hear him out. He's gone to all this effort. You can't turn down a trip to the moon.

Branda: Yes, she can. He dumped her and then hooked up with his skanky ex-girlfriend.

Doug: OK, I'm a spineless jerk. And you were right. I'm just a man with a duck. But Pierre's gone. Alright? He flew. If he can fly... I'm falling in love with you, Holly.

Audience: Aw... It's so romantic. Oh, give him another go. My husband would never get dressed up for me. I'm lucky if Bruce puts on trousers.

Holly: You think you can just turn up here...say you love me and everything will be OK?

Doug: Holly, I...

Holly: That was for embarrassing me. Oh... And that's for embarrassing me.

Doug: Sorry. I can't really take you to the moon.

Holly: It's OK.

Doug: But I can get you close. Look.

Holly: But you don't even like flying.

Doug: Well, depends on my copilot.

Holly: You're a bit of a dick, do you know that?

Doug: Yeah. Little bit.
