影片对白：
Messer: Hey, her temp's coming down.
Holly: Clothes, daycare, monthly food bill...and now a $1,200 bill from the emergency room. If something happens to the car, one of us is gonna have to sell a kidney.
Messer: Having a kid is expensive. We talked about that.
Holly: Having kids and an expanding shop, it's a bit much.
Messer: Where'd you get the flowers?
Holly: Oh. Sam sent them today. I haven't even called him back yet. I mean, how can I? I'm a disaster. I can't be this girl on the second date. This is what you save for marriage. Like 10 years in.
Messer: Don't stress about the money. We'll be fine.
Holly: I'll just call Lonnie and we'll patch up the wall...and maybe in a few years, we can revisit it or something.
Messer: Wait, so you're gonna pull the plug on the remodel?
Holly: I can't increase the construction loan. It's okay, you know? I'll just have a shop and not a restaurant. It's fine. It'll be okay.
Messer: You know, I can give you the money. I have savings.
Holly: No. No, I can't let you do that. I would never take your savings.
Messer: I want to. OK? We're raising a kid together. We have this house together. This is just part of it. Look, having somebody help you doesn't mean that you failed. It just means that you're not in it alone.
Holly: Um....Okay, but it can't be a gift. I won't take it unless it's an investment.
Messer: Fine. I'm an investor in Fraiche.
Holly: You're...You're an investor in "Fraiche."
Messer: "Fraiche." Sorry.
Holly: "Fraiche." And as an investor, that entitles you to 2 percent of profits.
Messer: Three percent.
Holly: Two percent. And, hey, a discount on food and wine.
Messer: What's the discount?
Holly: Ten percent.
Messer: Fifteen percent.
Holly: Ten percent. It's a great discount.
Messer: Then you throw in dinner.
Holly: Oh, deal.
Messer: All right.
Holly: Awesome. Okay. Oh, my God. Thank you so much. That's huge. Okay, dinner, tonight, on me. You and me.
********************************
Amy: Hello. You look so pretty.
Holly: Oh, thank you.
Amy: Oh, my God.
Messer: Hey.
Holly: Hey. So here are all the numbers. My cell phone, his cell phone, the restaurant and the pediatrician.
Amy: Yep. You know you actually have to leave the house for me to do my job?
Holly: Yeah. Yes. Okay.
Messer: All right.
Holly: All right. Okay, have fun. Bye-bye.
Amy: Bye-bye.
*******************************
Messer: This place is amazing, Holly. I can't believe I haven't been here before. Look at you. You're a kitchen ninja. You don't follow any kind of a recipe?
Holly: No. This is the only place in the whole world where I do not follow a plan.
[Speaking indistinctly]
Messer: Are you sure you wanna do this?
Holly: I got this. A bet's a bet. I can do this.
Messer: You don't have to do this.
Holly: You know what I'm not sure about? The helmet. It's lame. I want something with thunderbolts on it.
Messer: We're gonna pull out the choke, all right?
Holly: The what?
Messer: The choke.
Holly: Okay.
Messer: All right? Turn on the ignition, pull in the clutch. This is the clutch. Hold that in. Hold that in.
Holly: Okay.
Messer: Push the starter button. All right, there we go. All right, left hand is the clutch, right hand is the throttle. Okay?
Holly: Okay.
Messer: All right, let's get your kickstand up.
Holly: Oh, I'm on a freaking motorcycle!
Messer: Easy there, Rain Man. We're not done? Okay? All right. Now we're in first gear.
Holly: Okay.
Messer: Hold that. Don't let go of that clutch till I get on--
Holly: Let go?
[Holly yelps]
[Messer gasps]
Holly: Oh, my God.
Messer: No.
Holly: Oh, my God. Oh, Messer. Oh, Messer, I'm so sorry.
Messer: No, it's okay. Are you all right?
Holly: Yeah, yeah. (The bus crashes the motorcycle) Oh! Oh, no. Oh, no. Are you mad?
Messer: No, I'm just-- I'm gonna sit down.
Holly: I thought you said, "Let go." Do you want me to go talk to the bus driver maybe? God, I am so sorry, Messer.
Messer: Don’t worry about it. Don't worry.
Holly: I swear, I'm gonna pay for it, I promise.
Messer: I'm actually kind of in awe. You didn't even drive it a foot before you destroyed it.
Holly: I feel so bad. I'm really sorry.
Messer: It's fine. Okay? It's just a bike.
Holly: Do you really mean that, or are you just saying that because you think if I keep talking about it, you're gonna cry?
Messer: Get inside.
[Holly giggles]
Amy: Hi.
Holly: Hi.
Amy: I didn't wanna move her.
Holly: [Whispering] That's okay.
Messer: [Whispering] Amy, wait a second. Here you go. Now, come on, no backsies.
Holly: Thanks, Amy.
Messer: Thank you. Bye-bye. Have a good night.
Amy: I think you guys make a really cute couple.
[Door opens and closes]
Holly: She said the same thing about Taylor Swift and that Twilight kid.
