ANGELO
I knew it was too good to be true.
You're sweet on him, right?
SUSANNE
On Justin?
ANGELO
The very one. You two are, what?,
having an affair, and here I butt
in like a louse. Well, I'm
heart-broken, I admit it.
SUSANNE
Actually we're very old friends.
ANGELO
You're not lovers?
SUSANNE
No.
ANGELO
Blessed twice in one evening!
SUSANNE (laughing)
You are one of a kind, aren't you?
ANGELO
In the old country, I'm a dime a
dozen. It's maybe that American men
don't know how to treat a lady.
SUSANNE
Well, I've never had my hand kissed before.
ANGELO
See there! So tell me about yourself. Why aren't
you married?
SUSANNE
I've tried it too many times, I'm
afraid.
ANGELO
Always the wrong man, right?
SUSANNE
I'm beginning to think it's something
more fundamental than that. Perhaps
I'm not the marrying kind.
ANGELO
A lady of independence.
SUSANNE
You don't like that, if you're from the old country.
ANGELO
There's independence and there's
independence, if you know what I
mean.
SUSANNE
I don't.
ANGELO
My mother, bless her soul, she was
a strong woman, a lady of independence
if ever there was one. But she was
a lady as well, a woman to the core,
who expressed her independence as a
woman, in other words not trying to be
a man. Now when I look at you, I
think the same thing, this here is a
woman to the core. You understand
me?
SUSANNE
Yes, perhaps I do. A woman can be
independent, can be strong, without
losing her feminity.
ANGELO
Exactly. We must be, how do you say
it?, on the same wavelength. This is
a good sign, I think.
SUSANNE
A good sign for what?
ANGELO
Ah, you're pulling my leg!
SUSANNE
I suppose I am. You're making
advances, and I'm pretending I
don't understand. But I do.
ANGELO
Nothing phony about this lady.
I like that.
SUSANNE
I'm sorry, Mr.--
ANGELO
Angelo.
SUSANNE
Angelo, I'm not interested, I'm afraid.
ANGELO
You don't even give me a chance?
SUSANNE
I hardly know you.
ANGELO
Then this is what you call the
catch twenty-two, right? You don't
know me so you won't go out with me
but how can you get to know me unless
you go out with me? Like the chicken
and the egg. I'll tell you what:
we will have phone conversations
first, how's that?
SUSANNE
What for?
ANGELO
So you can know me! What else?
SUSANNE
You're very persistent, aren't you?
ANGELO
When I see such rare beauty, a woman
who is one of a kind--
SUSANNE
Angelo, you're very sweet, but I
really should freshen up
before the ceremony begins.
ANGELO
You know what? It doesn't matter that
you don't want to know me. It is enough
to have this blessed moment of your
presence.
SUSANNE
You're very sweet. Goodbye.
