Young Noah: I see you got my letters, finally. What are you gonna do, Al?
Young Allie: I don't know.
Young Noah: We're back to that? Are we back there? What about the past couple of days? They happened, you know.
Young Allie: I know that they happened, and they were wonderful. But they were also very irresponsible. I have a fianc? waiting for me at a hotel who's going to be crushed when he finds out what I did.
Young Noah: So you make love to me, and go back to your husband. Was that your plan? Was that a test I didn't pass?
Young Allie: No, I made a promise to a man. He gave me a ring and I gave him my word.
Young Noah: And your word is shot to hell now, don't you think?
Young Allie: I don't know. I'll find out when I talk to him.
Young Noah: This is not about keeping your promise, and it's not about following your heart. It's about security.
Young Allie: What is that supposed to mean?
Young Noah: Money!
Young Allie: What are you talking about?
Young Noah: He has a lot of money.
Young Allie: Now I hate you, you smug bastard.
Young Noah: Well, I hate you. If you leave here, I hate you.
Young Allie: Have you been paying attention to anything that's happening?
Young Noah: I guess not, I think I must have misread all of those signals.
Young Allie: Well I guess you did!
Young Noah: You're bored! You're bored and you know it! You wouldn't be here if there wasn't something missing.
Young Allie: You arrogant son of a bitch.
Young Noah: Would you just stay with me?
Young Allie: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fighting.
Young Noah: Well, that's what we do! We fight! You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you're being a pain in the ass, which you are 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. They have, like, a two second rebound rate, then you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.
Young Allie: So what?
Young Noah: So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. And we're gonna have to work at this every day. But I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, you and me, every day. Can you do something for me? Please? Will you just picture your life for me? Thirty years from now? Forty years from now? What's it look like? If it's with that guy, go. Go! I lost you once. I think I can do it again if I thought that's what you really wanted. But don't you take the easy way out.
Young Allie: What easy way? There is no easy way. No matter what I do, somebody gets hurt!
Young Noah: Would you stop thinking about what everyone wants?! Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do you want? What do you want?
Young Allie: It's not that simple!
Young Noah: What do you want? Goddammit, what do you want?
Young Allie: I have to go.
