Erin: What are you doing making all that 1)goddamn noise?
George:  Well, uh, I don’t know we’re just introducing ourselves to the neighbors, I guess.
Erin: Well, I’m the neighbors. There we’re introduced, so shut the fuck up.
George:  Oh, hey, hey, well, 2)hold on there. Let’s start over, OK? My name’s George. What’s yours?
Erin: Just think of me as the person next door, who likes it quiet.
George:  Hey, come on, don’t be like that. Look 3)hell, we live next door to each other. And I feel bad, I feel terrible. I’m sorry, will you accept my 4)apology? I mean hell we’re living right next door to each other if you need a cup of sugar or some cream…
Erin: I don’t need sugar.
George:  You don’t need any sugar, well, why don’t I take you out to dinner to apologize⁴ for my 5)rudeness. Huh? You give me your number, I mean I already got your address so you can’t get away, huh? And I’ll call you up proper and I’ll ask you out and everything.
Erin: You want my number.
George:  I do, I do want your number.
Erin: Which number do you want? George?
George:  George, now I like the way you say that “George”. Well, how many numbers you got?
Erin: Oh, I got numbers coming out of my ears, 6)for instance ten.
George:  Ten?
Erin: Yeah, that’s how many months old my baby girl is.
George:  You have a little girl?
Erin: Yeah. Yeah, sexy, huh? How about this for a number six, that’s how old my other daughter is, eight is the age of my son, two is how many times I’ve been married⁵ and 7)divorced, 16 is the number of dollars I have in my 8)bank account. 8503943, that’s my phone number and with all the numbers I gave you I’m guessing 9)zero is the number of times you’re gonna call it.
George:  Hey, how the hell do you remember your bank balance⁶ right 10)off the top of your head like that? That 11)impresses me. You’re dead wrong about that zero calling...

爱琳•布洛克维克：喂！
乔治：你好。
爱琳：你在干什么？吵死人了。
乔治：噢，啊，我不太清楚，我想我们还是向邻居介绍一下自己吧。
爱琳：噢，我就是邻居。我们介绍完了，现在闭上你的鸟嘴。
乔治：噢，对了，哦，等等。我们重新开始好吗？我叫乔治，你叫什么名字？
爱琳：噢，把我当作你隔壁住的人就行了，喜欢安静的人。
乔治：噢，别，别那么气鼓鼓的。你看，我们俩就住在隔壁。我心情不好，觉得很糟糕。我很抱歉，你接受我的道歉吗？我是说，我们住在隔壁，如果你需要一杯糖或奶油什么的……
爱琳：我不需要糖。
乔治：你不需要糖，哦，我为什么不可以带你出去吃顿饭，为我的粗鲁向你道歉，啊？你给我电话号码，我是说我已经知道了你的住址，你走不掉了，呃？我会在适当的时候打电话叫你起床，请你出去，等等等等。
爱琳：你要我的号码。
乔治：对，我要你的号码。
爱琳：要哪个号码，乔治？
乔治：乔治，我喜欢你这样叫我，乔治。你有几个号码？
爱琳：比方说有个号码从我耳朵里钻了出来，是十。
乔治：十？
爱琳：对，这是我小女儿几个月大的数字。
乔治：你有个小女儿。
爱琳：对。很性感是吗？六这个数字怎么样，这是我另外一个女儿的岁数，八是我儿子的岁数，二是我结婚离婚的次数，十六是我银行存折上美元的数字。 8503943，这是我的电话号码，我给你了这么多号码，我猜你会打电话过来的次数是零。
乔治：喂，你怎么会即兴想起你的存款数目的？让我印象深刻。但你说的零次数电话绝对错误……
