Harry: Gloria, please!

Gloria: crying. Why didn't you bring me any chocolates?

Harry: Gloria, you told me you hated chocolates.

Gloria: I don't hate chocolates! I love chocolates!

Harry: Don't cry, Gloria, please ... I'll bring you chocolates, anything you want ... Listen, I've rented a motel room a couple of blocks away, just to be near you.

Gloria: A motel room? You're there with some fucking whore! You watch x-rated movies together, there's a full length mirror on the ceiling.

Harry: I'll be nearby for a couple of days, Gloria. I'll bring you anything you want.

Gloria: Bring me your love, then. Why the hell don't you bring me your love?
