影片對白：
Neil: Hey. That look straight to you?
Beth: Why are you hanging that?
Neil: Because you asked me to about three weeks ago. I'm getting around to it. Why? You don't want it here?
Beth: No, I love it there. But just stop.
Neil: Why? Is it the painting? You know, I know, it looks kind of like a deflated boob here. Right? I know. It's gonna be depressing. Should I take it down?
Beth: No, I want you to stop doing anything nice.
Neil: This feels like a trick.
Beth: No.
Neil: No?
Beth: No, I just- I just need you to stop being nice to me...unless you're gonna marry me after. Is that funny? Do you think that's funny?
Neil: No, I guess it's not funny.
Beth: See, you can't keep being nice to me...and I can't keep pretending that this is something that it's not. We've been together for over seven years. You know me, you know who I am. You either wanna marry me or you don't.
Neil: Or there's the possibility...that I mean it when I say I don't believe in marriage-
Beth: Bullshit. Bullshit. Come on, it's bullshit for every woman that has been told by some man that he doesn't believe in marriage and then...six months later he's married to some 24-year-old that he met at a gym. It's just- It's bullshit.
Neil: Where is this coming from?
Beth: It's coming from the place I've been hiding from you for about five years.
Neil: Okay.
Beth: Five years, because I haven't wanted to seem demanding. And I haven't wanted to seem clingy or psycho. Or whatever. So I haven't asked you. But I...I have to. I mean...are you ever gonna marry me? Oh, I can't do this anymore.
**********************
Woman 1: I used to think that I had never been dumped.
Woman 2: Yeah, then we started comparing notes. Then we realized, wait a second, we've both been dumped by every man we've ever been with.
Woman 1: Every one.
Woman 2: Yeah.
Woman 1: But they do it so skillfully.
Woman 2: Mm-hm.
Woman 1: They just so sneaky that you think it was your idea.
Woman 2: Yeah. You know, you're sitting back and you're like: "Oh, oh, oh, oh yeah. This my idea. But wait a second, why am I alone?"
Woman 1: “Why am I unhappy? Why have I gained 20 pounds?"
Woman 2: Mm-hm.
Woman 1: They Jedi mind-trick you.
Woman 2: Yes, they do.
Woman 1: So they do a soft pass.
Woman 2: Yeah, yeah. They got little lines they like to tell you.
Woman 1: Like, "I don't wanna stand in your way."
Woman 2: Or, "You're perfect, it's just I have to work on myself."
Woman 1: Right. "I'm just thinking of your happiness."
Woman 2: "Oh, I don't deserve you." That's my favorite one.
Woman 1: You know the other one I like? "I am so jealous of the guy who gets to marry you." Well, that could have been you.
Woman 2: Yeah.
Woman 1: That's what I was leaning towards.
Woman 2: Yeah. And I’m telling you something. The second you hear that, you just run to the store, get yourself some ribs and some ice cream, because you have been dumped.

2. demanding: 苛求的；難滿足的。看一下例子：He is not demanding with his friends.（他對朋友并不苛求。）在形容事物時demanding表示“要求高的，費力的”。
