00:00:08 BRIEF CROSSING
00:13:25 I never thought I'd get hooked.
00:15:00 Not very smart of you.
00:16:07 No, stops me from sleeping.
00:17:33 You try this and try that, so you're sure to get nowhere.
00:19:14 The smart choice is plastic surgeon.
00:20:22 Without a bit of romance.
00:24:58 It's nerdy. Now I'll seem grotesque.
00:28:55 Young people want to age, and old people want to forget.
00:30:25 We've been paired off, it's all over.
00:32:01 Is it bearable?
00:33:59 What do we want? Why do we do it?
00:36:34 Maybe they're simple and we're complex.
00:42:56 You have nice hair. That's a good point.
00:44:29 You think all men are like that?
00:47:12 But I always wind up with the opposite.
00:48:37 - So men make mistakes too. - You're tough.
00:51:32 How romantic!
00:54:38 Shouldn't we stop now, and have a pleasant memory?
00:59:08 That's all you think about.
01:02:41 Because my mind is very young.
01:06:26 Which is the same thing. It's inhuman.
01:10:24 - You sure? - Yes.
01:14:21 Swear you'll wait!
