Harry : Tell me, exactly, how long it is that you've been working here?
Sarah : Two years, seven months, three days and, I suppose, what... two hours?
Harry : And how long have you been in love with Karl, our enigmatic chief designer?
Sarah : Ahm, two years, seven months, three days and, I suppose, an hour and thirty minutes.
Harry : I thought as much.
Sarah : Do you think everybody knows?
Harry : Yes.
Sarah : Do you think Karl knows?
Harry : Yes.
Sarah : Oh, that is... that is bad news.
Harry : Well I just thought maybe the time had come to do something about it.
Sarah : Like what?
Harry : Invite him out for a drink and then, after about twenty minutes, casually drop into the conversation the fact that you'd like to marry him and have lots of sex and babies.
Sarah : You know that?
Harry : Yes, and so does Karl. Think about it, for all our sakes. It's Christmas.
Sarah : Certainly. Excellent. Will do. Thanks, boss!

[Karl has given Sarah a lift home after the Christmas party. They are standing on her doorstep]
Karl : Well, I-I'd better go.
Sarah : Okay.
Karl : Goodnight.
Sarah : Goodnight.
[he gives her a quick peck on the cheek, then they begin to kiss passionately]
Karl : Actually, I don't *have* to go.
Sarah : Right. Good.
Karl : I mean...
Sarah : No-no that's good. Just, um, would you excuse me for one second? Just...
Karl : Sure.
[she moves round the corner, out of sight of Karl, dances a little jig for joy, then returns]
Sarah : Um, okay, that's done. Um, why don't you come upstairs in about ten seconds.
