    HARRY     I had my dream again. Where I’m making love, and the Olympic judges are watching. I’ve nailed the compulsories, so this is it. The finals. I get a 9.8 from the Canadian. I get a perfect 10 from the American. And my mother, disguised as an East German judge, gives me a 5.6. Must have been the dismount.

    HARRY     Don’t tell me.
    SALLY     Okay. There’s this guy.
    HARRY     What’s he look like?
    SALLY     I don’t know. He’s just kind of faceless.
    HARRY     A faceless guy. Okay. Then what happens?
    SALLY     He rips off my clothes.
    HARRY     Then what happens?
    SALLY     That’s it.
    HARRY     That’s it? A faceless guy rips off your clothes. And that’s the sex fantasy you’ve been having since you were twelve? Exactly the same?
