"Bon voyage."
"That's what you have to say to me? Goshdamn, that had better be ironic or something."
"Um, it actually seemed sort of appropriate."
"How do you figure? Huh? Jesus."
"You're, well, leaving the country. It seemed so appropriate it was almost absurd."
"'Bon voyage' is what you say to someone who's going on a freaking vacation to the goddamn Galapagos Islands for a week or whatever. I'm moving to fricking China."
"Well, you are going on a trip. And, literally, that's what 'bon voyage' means. It's a 'have a good trip.'"
"But not for me. I'm the end of an era. Something huge and wonderful is coming to an end, and will never be quite the same again, and all you can do is wish me a good trip."

"I hope someone stabs you through the eyes."
"Meryl, don't be like that."
"I'm going to be late."
"Can I at least have a kiss goodbye?"
"No. Maybe if you weren't such a tool--no."
"A hug."
"No."
"You know, you're awfully bitter for a girl who gets a chance to start all over again."
