HARRY: The first time we met we hated each other.
SALLY: You didn’t hate me, I hated you. And the second time we met, you didn’t even remember me.
HARRY: I did too, I remembered you. (A long beat.) The third time we met, we became friends.
SALLY: We were friends for a long time.
HARRY: And then we weren’t.
SALLY: And then we fell in love.
SALLY: Three months later we got married.
HARRY: It only took three months.
SALLY: Twelve years and three months.
