A scene from When Harry Met Sally 1989
Harry

Why can't we get past this? I mean, are we gonna carry this thing around forever?

Sally

Forever? It just happened.

Harry

It happened three weeks ago. You know how a year to a person is like seven years to a dog?

Sally

Yes.

Sally

Is one of us supposed to be a dog in this scenario?

Harry

Yes.

Sally

Who is the dog?

Harry

You are.

Sally

I am? I am the dog? I am the dog?

Harry

Um-hmm.

Sally

I am the dog. I-I don't see that Harry. If anybody is the dog, you are the dog. You want to act like what happened didn't mean anything.

Harry

I'm not saying it didn't mean anything. I am saying why does it have to mean everything?

Sally

Because it does, and you should know that better than anybody because the minute that it happens, you walk right out the door.

Harry

I didn't walk out.

Sally

No, sprinted is more like it.

Harry

We both agreed it was a mistake.

Sally

The worst mistake I've ever made.

Harry

What do you want from me?

Sally

I don't want anything from you!

Harry

Fine. Fine, but let's just get one thing straight. I did not go over there that night to make love to you, that is not why I went there. But you looked up at me with these big weepy eyes, don't go home night Harry, hold me a little longer Harry. What was I supposed to do?

Sally

What are you saying, you took pity on me?

Harry

No, I was...

Sally

**** you! [she slaps Harry]
