    精彩对白

    Lady:  He just waltzes in and cuts in line?

    Waiter: We reserve priority assistance for our Hilton Honors members.

    Ryan: The promotions are great. You should check it out.

    Natalie: Hungry much?

    Ryan: Our business expense allots $40 each for dinner. I plan on grabbing as many miles as I can.

    Natalie: Okay, you got to fill me in on the miles thing. What is that about? Are you talking about, like, frequent flyer miles?

    Ryan: You really want to know?

    Natalie: I'm dying to know.

    Ryan: I don't spend a nickel if I can help it unless it somehow profits my mileage account.

    Natalie: So, what are you saving up for, Hawaii, South of France?

    Ryan: It's not like that. The miles are the goal.

    Natalie: That's it? You're saving just to save?

    Ryan: Let's just say that I have a number in mind and I haven't hit it yet.

    Natalie: That's a little abstract. What's the target?

    Ryan: I'd rather not.

    Natalie: Is it a secret target?

    Ryan: It's 10 million miles.

    Natalie: Okay. Isn't 10 million just a number?

    Ryan: Pi's just a number.

    Natalie: Well, we all need a hobby. No, I... I don't mean to belittle your collection. I get it. It sounds cool.

    Ryan: I'd be the seventh person to do it. More people have walked on the moon.

    Natalie: Do they throw you a parade?

    Ryan: You get lifetime executive status. You get to meet the chief pilot, Maynard Finch. And they put your name on the side of a plane.

    Natalie:  Men get such hard-ons from putting their name on stuff. You guys don't grow up. It's like you need to pee on everything.

    Ryan: Now who's stereotyping?

    Natalie: Fear of mortality. It's like, "Yeah, you're gonna die one day."

    Ryan: And why do you suppose that's singular to men?

    Natalie: Probably because you can't have babies.

    Ryan: The baby argument.

    Natalie: If I had that many miles, I would show up at an airport, look at the destination board, pick a place and go.

    Ryan:  Thanks for the advice. Oh, Jesus.

    Natalie: Okay. Closer. Way closer. Still closer. Closer. Okay. A little left. Okay, down a little. Too far. Up. Up one more inch. I don't get it. Why does your sister want a fake photo?

    Ryan: My sister is kooky. She thinks this is charming. It's like the gnome thing.

    Natalie: No, I mean, why would your sister want a fake photo in front of the St. Louis airport?

    Ryan: Are you kidding, Lambert Field? The Wright brothers flew through there. That domed main terminal, it's the first of its kind. It's a precursor from everything, from JFK to de Gaulle.

    Natalie: Pretty sweet.

    Ryan: Just take the picture.

    Natalie: Well, that's a keeper.

    Ryan: Let me see it.

    Ryan: Why she wants dozens of reminders of all the places she hasn't been is beyond me. 

    Natalie: Well, I'm sure she'll be crushed for having missed this airport.

    Ryan: Look, before Lindbergh could cross the Atlantic, he took off from one of those runways. Do you ever wonder why they called it the Spirit of St. Louis?

    Natalie: No.

    Ryan: Well...
