"Yeah, you tell me." "What do you think of this?" "No." "It's an antique inkwell." "I know." "Well, I think he'd like it." "Well..." "He wouldn't."

"So what did you get him?" "I don't know." "It's your anniversary." "I choked." "I told Ira to pick something up." "Where is he?" "You told Ira?" "Shh." "Paul's right inside."

"What is this thing?" "Paulie's going to love it." "I'm telling you." "Hey, Ira?" "Hey, yeah." "What are you doing here?" "I don't know." "Do you want to open your present?" "Uh, sure." "Don't you want to go get mine?" "Sure." "Give--Give me a hand, 'cause it's..." "All right, help me find something." "What?" "Jamie, I didn't get her a gift yet." "Oh, that's nice." "No, no." "I got her one, but I didn't..." "Hey, jams?" "Women like jams." "What women?" "You know, like a-- like a whole assortment." "That's nice, right?" "No." "Why don't you think of something?" "Why don't you take her someplace." "Where?" "I don't know." "Some big special surprise thing." "That's not bad." "JAMIE:" "Honey?" "What?" "I'm waiting." "What?" "I'm waiting." "What?" "I'm..." "What?" "Okay, you go first." "Wow." "Yeah, hope you like it." "Well, it's from you, isn't it?" "Who else?" "Mmm." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "This is amazing." "What a beautiful and thoughtful gift." "This is the first movie I ever saw." "I can't believe you remembered that." "Well, yeah." "Wow." "This is so cool." "I'm gonna try this over here." "Give me a hand, hon." "This way, you know, put it right here, sweetie, and when you walk in, it's the first thing you see." "Yeah." "Oh." "Hey, this looks really good here, don't you think?" "Oh, boy." "Come here, you." "Aw." "So you really like it?" "Oh, I love it." "'Cause if you don't like it, we can return it." "What, you kidding?" "No, seriously, we can exchange it." "You can get anything else you want." "Anything." "No, no, no." "This baby's gonna stay right here forever." "Unless..." "What?" "You know what?" "Maybe it'll look good in the bedroom." "Oh, I don't know." "No, I'm gonna try it." "No kidding." "This is the best gift I ever got, sweetie." "Oh, well, I'm glad." "What's the matter with you?" "What?" "I have to hang that thing in my home." "What's wrong with it?" "She's got a bus in her uterus." "PAUL:" "You know what?" "I was right the first time." "It's funny, "Go with your instinct," right?" "Yeah." ""Put it here." You know, we'll get one of those museum lights." "You know, light it up." "Give it a little spotlight." "Sure, sure." "So what did you get her?" "JAMIE:" "Yeah." "Oh, this is it." "Oh, this is it." "Open it up." "Open it up." "Oh, good." ""This note entitles the bearer to one magical night."" "That's right." "Who wants a drink?" "Honey, I'm not sure what this means?" "What do you think it means?" "You're taking me somewhere tonight?" "That's right." "Drambuie?" "Where are we going?" "Where are we going?" "Where are we going?" "She wants to know where we're going." "Only to the most romantic place in the city." "You're kidding?" "Er, nope." "The Twilight Room?" "Uh..." "You got it!" "Oh!" "How did you get reservations?" "They're booked up for like months in advance." "Well, you think he just came up with this on the spot?" "This is so wonderful." "Jamie, I thought you were going out with us tonight." "They are." "You got reservations for four?" "Well, don't ask us." "Let me finish." "Six." "Really?" "You guys are throwing me a party at the Twilight Room?" "What time do we have to be there?" "Late." "I love you." "This is wonderful." "Paulie, I told you this'd work out." "What worked out?" "We got a cab." "Don't worry about it." "We'll just walk into the Twilight Room and go, "Hey, we're here, feed us."" "I'm telling you, I'll get us in." "You couldn't get us into the Black Angus last week." "Well, they had that shrimp special." "Honey, look." "What?" "JAMIE:" "It's our newsstand." "SUSANNAH:" "You have a newsstand?" "Mmm-hmm." "That's where we met." "Right there." "He needed a paper and I needed a paper." "Remember?" "PAUL:" "Yeah." "FRAN:" "It was so romantic." "Wasn't it?" "I just hope you know what the hell you're doing." "All right, you guys check the coats." "We'll take care of business." "Sure." "All right, you know what?" "Let's just get out of here." "Paulie, relax, would you?" "I'm telling you, listen." "These guys can smell fear, so be careful." "Evening." "Yes, sir?" "Buchman, party of six." "For what time?" "Uh, 9:07." "Buchman with a "B"?" "Unless you misspelled it." "No, I'm sorry." "Well, that's puzzling." "Did you make the reservation or did Marcy?" "Marcy?" "That's his secretary." "She might've put it under another name." "Yeah." "She does that all the time." "Check Smith, Kennedy, Wilson or Harper." "No." "How about Cohen?" "Hollinger?" "Rogers?" "Channing?" "Or Channing?" "No, sir, I'm sorry." "Well, what do you have?" "Oh, Ping." "Ping." "There we are." "Sir, I'm afraid the Pings have already been seated." "At our table?" "You ready?" "Huh?" "Uh, there's just a slight delay." "They're asking us to wait at the bar." "Is there a problem?" "No, there's no problem." "Go on, go ahead." "We'll be right there." "Drink something." "Isn't this place beautiful?" "It's lovely." "Go over there." "All right, Paulie." "Schmear him." "Okay." "How much?" "Fifty." "Yeah?" "How about 20?" "20?" "That didn't work at the Angus." "Uh..." "Here you go." "This is for you." "For what?" "You know." "No, I'm sorry." "I don't know." "You know." "You misplaced it, like our reservations." "Oh, well." "Thank you very much." "So we got a table?" "No." "Oh, good evening, Mr. Randolph." "Your table's ready." "Damn." "I was gonna say Randolph." "Now what?" "I don't know." "Beg." "I'll go wait at the bar." "Let me ask you something." "Have you ever been married?" "No." "All right, well, let me put it to you this way." "Please, please, please give me a table." "We've been through this already." "I know..." "Honey, what's going on?" "Hmm?" "No, uh, they're just, they overbooked or something." "Hey, let me-- let me get one of those, please." "Did you make a reservation?" "Of course I made a reservation." "What do you think?" "Here, for you." "Thank you." "Then why aren't they honoring it?" "No, they're honoring it, they're honoring it." "They're just-- They're just making us wait." "And you know what?" "It just makes me mad." "Honey, it's okay." "Don't start." "No, it really is wrong." "What kind of place is this?" "You know, we made reservations weeks ago, we show up, we're dressed up, we're here on time, and this is the kind of treatment we get?" "It's okay..." "No, no, no!" "I will not be treated this way." "I will not have our friends treated like this." "Get the coats." "Sweetie, please." "MAITRE D':" "Excuse me, sir." "No." "You know what?" "This is not the only joint in town." "No, no, no, please." "This is a big city." "There are plenty of places just as good, just as classy." "And when you get around to calling our names, that's where we'll be." "Come on." "(LOUD ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)" "This is great, huh?" "What?" "I know!" "How did you find this place?" "Oh, my band plays here sometimes!" "I'd love to hear them!" "I'd love to hear anything!" "Where's the ladies' room?" "No, not alone." "Hang on." "I'll go with you!" "Where are we going?" "IRA:" "See?" "What?" "I got us right in!" "You're the master, baby!" "Honey, will you hand me my purse?" "And trust me, you're in the clear!" "Honey!" "You think?" "I'm telling you, you pulled it off!" "(MUSIC STOPS) Jamie totally bought the whole thing!" "Honey?" "Hi." "I don't even get points for trying?" "No." "It's not my fault your sister bought grapes." "What does that mean?" "Fran picked out this beautiful tray..." "Fran picked out my gift?" "You know, you're not the easiest person in the world to buy for." "Oh, take that back." "I take it back." "All right." "Are we done here?" "I just wanted something from your heart." "I tried." "No, you didn't." "As much as you did." "What does that mean?" "I know you had Ira buy mine." "Where do you get that?" "(SNICKERING) I picked it out with him." "You picked that thing out?" "Yeah." "Don't change the subject." "I don't believe this." "Now, where are you going?" "I want a cigarette." "You're not smoking." "Come on." "Sweetie?" "This doesn't bother you?" "What, that we're bad shoppers?" "No." "That we've been married for three years." "It's like we don't even know each other." "Here we go." "Well, excuse me, I find this a little bit disturbing." "Would you stop?" "No, I won't." "I'm serious." "I know you are." "That's what's so nuts about this." "Not everything has to mean something, you know." "Not everything is some big crisis." "Okay, don't minimize this." "Who's minimizing?" "You're minimizing." "You're maximizing." "Take that back." "You--You think the gods are up there every day saying," ""Let's screw with the Buchmans today" ""and see if they pass the test"?" "What test?" "The test." "What gods?" "The gods, the gods."

"Probably right." "What, you think we never would've met?" "Do you know what?" "We probably would've met anyway." "How?" "Just tell me what the right thing is now, I'll say that." "Come on." "PAUL:" "Yes, I am." "JAMIE:" "No, you're not." "I am." "You're not hanging that thing in our apartment." "Well, then, why'd you buy it for me?" "You bought it for you." "This is weird." "What?"

"We live here." "No, we live here." "So what, we live over there?" "No, we live there." "I thought you said you live here." "Yes." "How do you live there and here?" "We used to live there, then we broke through the connecting wall, now we live here and there." "Okay, look." "I should warn you." "I was middleweight champion in my class at Oxford." "JAMIE:" "Paul." "What?" "This place is huge." "Is that a steam room?" "What's going on here?" "We called the police." "JAMIE:" "Mr. Wicker." "Mr. Wicker." "Would you please tell them who we are?"
