Summary: Slow dialogue: 1:22 Explanations: 3:16 Fast dialogue: 17:28 Georgia: So I thought Carla was nice. Andy: You did? I didn’t get that impression at all. I don’t know what Brian sees in her. Georgia: Really? I thought she was really trying to make a good impression. Andy: Yeah, she was trying too hard. She laughed too loudly at my jokes and complimented you too much on your cooking. Georgia: Maybe she was a little too eager, but that just shows that she really likes our brother. What’s wrong with that? Andy: Nothing is wrong with that, but did you see how clingy she was? She wouldn’t leave Brian’s side for a minute, spoke for him, and finished his sentences. I just found that really annoying. Georgia: Brian didn’t seem to mind and that’s what really counts. Maybe he likes having an attentive girlfriend. Andy: There’s attentive and there’s smothering. She just seemed really possessive, that’s all. Georgia: Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much. Andy: What do you mean by that? Georgia: I think you might like Carla a little too much for your own good. Shame on you, being interested in your own brother’s girlfriend. Andy: Are you crazy?! Didn’t I just tell you that I didn’t like her at all? Georgia: Yes, but you said it with such passion! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
