    影片对白

    Maya: So, what areyou guys up to tonight?
    Miles: Oh, we're pretty wiped. You know I think we're just gonna go back to the motel and crash.

    Maya: Yeah, I guess it's kind of a long drive up here.

    Miles: Mmm.

    Maya: Where are you staying?

    Miles: Uh, the Windmill.

    Jack: Windmill. The girl is looking to party and you tell her we're going back to the motel and crash? Jesus, Miles!

    Miles: Well, I'm tired, Jack. Aren't you tired?

    Jack: The chick digs you, man! She lit up like a pinball machine when she found out your novel was getting published.

    Miles: Now I have another lie to live down. Thanks, Jack.

    Jack: Just trying to get you a little action. I would appreciate a little bit of help.

    Miles: Didn't seem to me like that's what was going on.You were all over her.

    Jack: Well, somebody had to do the talking. And, by the way, I was right--she's not married.

    Miles: How do you know?

    Jack: No rock. When she came to the bar, she was sans rock.

    Miles: Oh.
