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? |

"Jucha's clever direction
turns the tale into an increasingly hilarious romp."
