[phyllis]
how about a country house?

[ben]
fine

[phyllis]
you want to get a country house?

[ben]
if you like…

[phyllis]
what would you like?

[ben]
no, a country house would be fine

[phyllis]
would you like one?

[ben]
sure, if that would make you happy

[phyllis]
swell
[ben]
whatever makes you happy

[phyllis]
yes, well…

[ben]
why not? we’ll get a country house
what kind?

[phyllis]
kind?

[ben]
whatever kind you have in mind

[phyllis]
you choose

[ben]
look, it’s your idea
a country house

[phyllis]
oh, forget it
[ben]
and a good one

[phyllis]
oh

[ben]
if that’s what makes you happy

[phyllis]
happy…

[ben]
comparatively happy

[both]
all right, where?

[ben]
i don’t care

[phyllis]
that’s not fair

[ben]
well, then
[both]
somewhere by the sea. / somewhere by the woods

[ben]
by the sea, then

[phyllis]
don’t agree just to agree

[ben]
look, it’s all the same to me

[phyllis]
yes, i know

[ben]
meaning…?

[phyllis]
oh, let it go

[both]
look, as long as we’re together…

[ben]
how about a trip abroad?

[phyllis]
let’s

[ben]
we haven’t had a trip abroad for years…

[phyllis]
not for ages

[ben]
take a ship abroad, get away

[phyllis]
just the two of us

[ben]
a chance to be together

[phyllis]
that’s the point

[both]
as long as it’s together

[phyllis]
it’s what we need, a trip abroad

[ben]
where to?

[phyllis]
to?

[ben]
to london, paris…?

[phyllis]
somewhere new

[ben]
up to you

[phyllis]
’round the world

[ben]
no, really…

[phyllis]
’round the world won’t do?

[ben]
where?

[both]
let’s not get into that again / if that would make you happy
no, really. fine. if that would make you happy

it just might
all right, when?

[phyllis]
name the day

[ben]
just not may

[phyllis]
why?

[ben]
the meeting in atlanta
june? july…?

[phyllis]
no, that’s my benefit for anta

[ben]
so?

[phyllis]
so?

[ben]
it’s enough to lend your name

[phyllis]
and you couldn’t do the same?

[ben]
it’s my board

[phyllis]
oh, dear lord

[ben]
and they can’t be ignored

[phyllis]
no, and you can’t afford to be bored
with your board, can you?

[ben]
well, so much for travel…

[phyllis]
how about a friendly shrink?

[ben]
what?

[phyllis]
you want to see a friendly shrink?

[ben]
why me?

[phyllis]
us

[ben]
i think i’d rather have another drink

[phyllis]
okay, your turn

[ben]
but if that would make you happy…

[phyllis]
what?

[ben]
joke: if a shrink would make you happy

[phyllis]
nice joke

what about a st. bernard?

[ben]
what?

[phyllis]
we could adopt a st. bernard

[ben]
in new york?
are you serious, a st. bernard?

[phyllis]
or a child

[ben]
ah, the child…

[both]
all right, why?

[phyllis]
why not?

[ben]
why now?

[phyllis]
we need something we can share

[ben]
we need air

[phyllis]
we need something

[ben]
we need something if it’s real

[phyllis]
maybe saying what we feel?

[ben]
it’s the deal

[phyllis]
for a change

[ben]
you go first

[phyllis]
after you

[ben]
i’ve got nothing to conceal
so there’s nothing to reveal

[phyllis]
we’re all set there then

[ben]
i could take a few days off

[phyllis]
maybe we could take a suite at the waldorf

[ben]
mm…

[phyllis]
just the two of us
second honeymoon…

[ben]
should be better than the first

[phyllis]
there are times when you can be a louse

[ben]
the h*ll, let’s get a house
