How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days Page #5

Whether they're four, 40,

or my 88-year-old grandmother,

I respect women, all right?

And I also listen... to women,

and that's why I can sell myself

to any woman, anywhere, anytime.

Make a woman fall in love

with diamonds, Benjamin...

or with you?

Eh, either one.

Well, that's cocky, Ben.

No, not cocky... confident.

I'd like to see you prove that.

You would?

The agency's cohosting

a party for the DeLauers

at the Astor Museum.

The party's a week from Sunday.

Do you think you could make

a woman fall in love with you

by then?

Ten days?

Any woman, anywhere, anytime?

Any single, available,

straight woman... yes.

Yes.

I'm not trying

to trick you, Ben.

In fact, we'll choose

a woman right here,

right now, in this bar,

and then you decide.

Ooh.

So, who's the lucky girl?

Okay...

Let's see here. Ooh,

there's that blonde babe

in the leopard print.

Whoa, ho, ho!

She looks like fun.

Be nice, ladies.

Or... wow,

Miss Babylon Five.

Now, she's on the prowl.

No.

Her.

Her who?

Her, in the gray dress.

Blonde hair. Pretty smile.

Her?

Done.

What?

Done.

Done.

See the guy next

to the horrible guy

in the green shirt that I would

never even consider? Okay?

- Hmm!

- Very cute.

Right?

- Good.

- All right?

Here I go!

Okay, you're on.

But here are the stakes.

After I win this bet,

this pitch is mine.

Agreed.

- Phil?

- Agreed.

You come to that party

with a girl

that's really in love

with you, Ben...

you can make the pitch

to the DeLauers.

But, Phillip, you can't...

I've made up my mind.

To the DeLauers.

To the DeLauers.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

Cheers.

- Mm-mm.

- Mm-mm.

I was just wondering

if you find...

...exciting?

Yes. My wife and I love

New York,

especially this time of year.

She'd been here before,

and I'd...

- Hi.

- Hi.

This is Andie.

Hi. Um...

Oh!

You guys enjoy New York.

Okay.

Thanks. We will.

Yeah. Nice meet...

nice meeting you.

Eww!

Good luck!

Thank you, Phil.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

ladies...

I have a bet to win.

Ta-ta.

Now do you want to tell

me what's going on?

You don't recognize her?

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Andie Anderson.

I'm Benjamin Barry.

Cute.

Thank you.

I meant your name.

Thank you two times.

Unattached?

Currently.

Likewise.

Surprising.

Psycho?

Rarely.

Hmm.

Interested?

Perhaps.

Hungry?

Starving.

- Leaving.

- Now?

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Okay.

One second.

I'll meet you at the door.

Hey, hey, guys.

What?

I think I got one.

He was married.

No, not him. It's the guy by

the door, but don't-don't look.

Oh, guys!

Oh! He is really cute!

I'm going to check this one out

and see if he's the keeper.

Okay.

And if he is?

Tomorrow night, we'll...
