| Joel: |
[in the house on the beach] I really should go! I’ve gotta catch my ride.
|
| Clementine: |
So go.
|
| Joel: |
I did. I thought maybe you were a nut… but you were exciting.
|
| Clementine: |
I wish you had stayed.
|
| Joel: |
I wish I had stayed too. NOW I wish I had stayed. I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I had… I wish I had stayed. I do.
|
| Clementine: |
Well I came back downstairs and you were gone!
|
| Joel: |
I walked out, I walked out the door!
|
| Clementine: |
Why?
|
| Joel: |
I don’t know. I felt like I was a scared little kid, I was like… it was above my head, I don’t know.
|
| Clementine: |
You were scared?
|
| Joel: |
Yeah. I thought you knew that about me. I ran back to the bonfire, trying to outrun my humiliation.
|
| Clementine: |
Was it something I said?
|
| Joel: |
Yeah, you said “so go.” With such disdain, you know?
|
| Clementine: |
Oh, I’m sorry.
|
| Joel: |
It’s okay.
|
| [Walking Out]
|
| Clementine: |
Joely? What if you stayed this time?
|
| Joel: |
I walked out the door. There’s no memory left.
|
| Clementine: |
Come back and make up a good-bye at least. Let’s pretend we had one.
|
| [Joel comes back]
|
| Clementine: |
Bye Joel.
|
| Joel: |
I love you…
|
| Clementine: |
Meet me… in Montauk… |
