精彩對白

Emma: Dr. Metzner? Adam, what's going on? What happened?

Dr. Metzner: He sprained his wrist punching a wall.

Emma: You texted me that you were dying.

Adam: It really hurt.

Dr. Metzner: I gave him some hydrocodone for the night. It's a very strong painkiller. You might want to have Dr. Kurtzman here drive you home. And here is a prescription for an anti-inflammatory. Don't worry. You're in good hands. Your girlfriend here is a very talented doctor.

Emma: No. No, I'm... I'm not his girlfriend.

Adam: She is not my girlfriend.

Dr. Metzner: Oh, sorry. I saw that he listed you as an emergency contact. My mistake. Feel better. Oh, by the way, I enjoyed your dad's TV show. Great Scott. That's funny stuff.

Adam: I'll tell him you said that. My dad invited me to dinner, and he's bringing Vanessa. You have to come.

Emma: No, I don't. I just worked 14 hours. I'm not gonna meet your parents.

Adam: You know what? Just help me. These are really powerful painkillers. I can't feel anything.

Emma: Feel that?

Adam: Yeah. I felt that.

Dad: Happy birthday, Adam. I'm so glad you guys could join us for dinner.

Waitress: Cheers. I'll come right back to take your order.

Dad: So, how you doing there, kiddo?

Adam: Perfect, Dad. Thank you for asking.

Dad: How long have you two been together?

Emma: Oh, we're not.

Adam: We're sex friends.

Emma: Yeah. Yes, we are.

Adam: Yeah, friends with benefits? Fuck buddies?

Dad: Great Scott!

Vanessa: I know this might be hard, but just because I'm your ex-girlfriend doesn't mean that you can't look at me as a kind of... mum?

Emma: Oh, boy.

Vanessa: Especially because, well, Alvin and I have been talking about creating new life together.

Dad: You see, we were at Burning Man.

Vanessa: And we were dressed up.

Dad: Yeah. I was dressed as a fire bird.

Emma: And what were you dressed as?

Vanessa: I was naked. And we were just out there in the desert, and he was burying my bare body in the sand.

Dad: Yeah. Pecking at it with my... fire beak.

Vanessa: And then I just thought, you know, what if all these grains of sand, were actually babies?

Dad: And so we...

Vanessa: We had this wonderful idea.

Dad: And we... well, we'd like your blessing, Adam. How do you feel about the two of us having a baby together?

Emma: This isn't really my place. I mean, who am I? I just have sex with your son sometimes. But...

Adam: Yes, she does.

Emma: But... there is really no reason for you to bring a child into this world, since you're acting like children already.

Vanessa: That was reallymean.

Emma: I'm mean. But you're fucking crazy. 'Cause given the choice between Adam and his dad, given the choice between Adam and anyone, really, I'd choose Adam, every time. Do you want to get out of here?

Adam: Yep. Fuck this.

Emma: Oh, by the way...it's the best sex of my life.
