Helen Norville : Are you sure that you can't come with me tonight?
Dale Jennings : You're not still going, are you?

Helen Norville : Are you sure you can't just come? Just maybe until the speeches?
Dale Jennings : No, I actually have a thing.

Helen Norville : [laughs] All I'm saying is that every other guy in that camera department's checked me out except Tim.
