"I was head over heels for Jake and ready to show him, because our love was the stuff of poetry, of novels, of blogs."

"He busted out the "L" word." "You must have misunderstood." "It's kind of hard to misunderstand" ""I'm breaking up with you."" "No misinterpreting that." "He said our timing was off." "Maybe I waited too long to say "I love you,"" "and he started to doubt me." "That doesn't make sense." "I'm gonna get the real deets." "Please." "My heart was broken into a million pieces, but unfortunately, my mind was still intact, which meant I couldn't ignore the unsettling realization that I was... devastated." "Trouble in paradise?" "Just feeling moved by the magic." "They're called feelings." "You don't have them." "That's where you're wrong, Jenna." "I do have feelings." "When I see you sitting there, all alone, in your little baby dress, with your little sad face, I feel... so glad I'm not you!"

"The guy that she slept with." "You remember him, right?" "The guy she was with before you?" "Or during." "I don't know." "I just have a gut feeling that that guy is still around." "Dude, how could she be seeing another guy?" " She's always with you." " And you." "Are you sure there's not something that you've picked up on?" "Maybe something that I don't see?" "No." "As my best friend, if you knew something..." "You'd tell me, right?" "Yeah." "Then tell me, what don't I know?" "I-I think you know it all, man." "Jenna really likes you, and only you." "Listen, how about we meet up?" "We can talk this out." "I gotta go." "What's going on?" "Jake just broke up with Jenna." "Hmm." "[Funky dance music]" " She really is in love." " Yeah." "You can tell by how hard she's humping his leg." "Hey." "Don't be sad, L-dawg." "You could get married again."

"Jenna has this crazy idea you broke up with her." "It doesn't sound that crazy to me." "I don't get it." "You guys are perfect." "Worthy of your own moniker, like "Jakenna."" "Perfection can be deceiving." "Why are you talking like a fortune cookie?" "Rosati, you're the good guy." "The kind of guy who reams Sadie just to protect his girlfriend's friend." "I did that for you." "You're my friend." "And as your friend, it's my job to lay out the obvi." "If you really wanted to dump Jenna, why are you still here?" "[Dance music begins] Good point." "Jake, I really need to talk to you." "What's happening?" "He definitely DTR'd." "It's over." "I tried to get to the bottom of it, but he kept giving me weird non-answers like my cell phone robot." "Shenanigans." "You have to call shenanigans." "Then I call it." "He owes me an explanation." "I'll just keep working this wedding!" "For no reason." "Hey, beautiful."

"Yeah, I got your message loud and clear that this isn't working." "Why are you being so cold?" "I'm just" " I'm so confused." "Just-- please, explain this to me." "Just talk to me." "Fine."

"[Crowd murmurs]" "[Sighs] Well, it looks like our maid of honor is MIA at the moment." "I'm Valerie, head bridesmaid," " and I've known Abby for" " Ally." "I've known Ally for..." "[Exhales]" "Two weeks now?" "Which doesn't seem like a long time, but if you think about it, it's about a third of the time that she's known the groom." "[Laughter]" "So let's just pretend like we're dealing in dog years, right?" "[Laughter]" "See, Gare?" "How it's done." "[Laughter]" "I'd be lying if I said I never thought about you." "Well, I know that we missed our chance in high school, but... now that we are" "[Old man voice] older and wiser." "[Laughter]" "Hmm, I might be older, but I am definitely not wiser." "I don't know if you heard, but..." "I ruined my marriage, and... my daughter hates me." "Utterly impossible." "The only one who could ever hate you is me." "[Laughing] You?" "Why you?" "For breaking my heart and choosing the other guy, what's his name?" "Come on, you were never heartbroken." "For years." "And I will stay that way, unless you make good on an outstanding debt." "And what would that be?" "You offered me a kiss good-bye." "Mm." "Which, as I recall, you did not collect." "But, see, that was a mistake, and I would like to right that wrong."

"Happy?" "[Chuckles] Listen, your dad's the one who ruined their relationship, and it started years ago." "What are you talking about?" "Think about it." "Why would I hate buzzkill this much for no reason?" "Because I'm the one who had to pick up the pieces when he screwed over your mom over and over again." "You're drunk." "And you're a dork."
