  [pauses for breath] 

  Vanessa : AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!

  [Falls to the floor, while everyone looks in shock] 

  Ben : I like that one.

• Vanessa : I must say, I never thought I'd find someone as dark and desolate as I.

  Ben : Well, I wouldn't say I'm that desolate.

  Vanessa : Please, I know. I've always been drawn to cynical pigs.

  Ben : I like puppies!

  Vanessa : No, don't spoil it! You are a starless night sky, Ben Harper!

  Ben : Yeah, yeah... You know, you're not the first person to have told me that?
