Man 1: Is there a problem?
Sara: Oh, no, just one sec.

Man 2: I did ice climbing once.
Alex: You don't even know me.

Casey: Wait. You're Ellis Island? I thought that was real sweet.
Alex: Thank you.
Sara: Case, you're not helping.
Alex: Excuse me, I'm on a date. Does it ever occur to women that maybe a guy might like to have a plan, you know, because he's nervous? He's not sure that he could just walk up to you and you'd respond if he said: "I like you." "I like you." "I like you."
Casey: That’s OK to me.

Sara: Sure, you want a Benadryl?
