I think the French are so messed up

Alexandre: If you must know, I like slender, rather tall girls.

Lea: Blondes or brunettes?

Alexandre: Brunettes. With smooth, light, slightly tanned skin. They really attract me. Especially when they have big eyes and silky lashes.

Lea: Cut it out. You promised not to lay it on!

Alexandre: I'm not laying it on! You asked what my type was! You're much closer than Adrienne to my ideal. You've always attracted me. But fate was against it.

Lea: Fate! You control yours, don't be modest!

Alexandre: You're wrong! I don't like to push. I'm no Romeo. The fact is, girls like me! It's given me bad habits. It can be a disadvantage. They seek me out, so I just relax. Means I don't always wind up with the best. If I like a girl, I'll meet her sooner or later... Better later then too soon. Take us... I'm glad I met you now, not 6 months ago. We're both available...

Lea: Stop it! What's available mean? And I don't like your kind of guy. I like to be wooed!

Alexandre: You were with Fabien!

Lea: You should have been insanely jealous.

Alexandre: Who says I wasn't?

Lea: Actions talk! You should've done something wild!

Alexandre: Let's run away. I'll kidnap you!

Lea: That's not so wild. And I said no!

Alexandre: I heard yes.

Lea: It meant no.

Alexandre: I'll think of something wilder... Come live with me! You've even got your bags! My place's too big for me alone.

Lea: When you're alone!

Alexandre: I'm alone now.

Lea: I'm going to my folks'. They're expecting me.

Alexandre: Call them back!

Lea: They're asleep.

Alexandre: So they're not waiting up!

Lea: I might move in with you, but not now. We've known each other 6 months, so wait 6 more months. During that period, you mustn't date anyone else. Then maybe I'll let myself be wooed!

Alexandre: I accept. But you mustn't date anyone, either.

Lea: That suits me fine!

Alexandre: 6 months is a bit long. How about 6 days?

Adrienne: It's funny, I can't see you a bureaucrat. That's what you are though. You should be in the arts. You never wanted to paint, or write?

Blanche: I've no talent. Even if I did... I'm not sure I'd want to do it for a living. Art for me is pure pleasure. Contemplating... it is enough.

Adrienne: I can understand that. It's just that... In your office, they're all bureaucrats, Real ones! It's a bad environment. All they think about is rank... climbing the ladder... spending their lives... stepping over people. They don't even think about work... much less love! I know what I'm talking about!
