Carrie: Well, I can't believe it. Same time, same place. Just you and me.

Mr. Big: Well, sort of. Meet my friend Jack.

Carrie: Oh, hi. How are you?

Jack: Marvelous.Going throughmy second divorce. Bitch is getting everything the first bitch didn't.

Carrie: There he was, right in the middle of my drink thing... Mr. Marvelous.

Jack: Jesus. Look at that beautiful woman. I'm gonna go ask her to join us for dinner. Excuse me.

Mr. Big: OK. He, uh, called me crying. Do you forgive me?

Carrie:Here's what.Why don't you two have a guy's night. You know, talk, cry,shoot bear. I'm waybehind onmy column anyway. Here.Next round on me. We'll do our thing another time.

Mr. Big: Are you sure?

Carrie: Abso-fucking-lutely. I didn't know what I was supposed to feel. Confused? Sad? Rejected? I decided to walk to clear my head. Also, I just left my cab fare on the table. So I walked. I walked 48 blocks in four-hundred-dollar shoes. I just needed something totake the edge off.

Jack: Hi.

Woman: Hello.

Carrie: Hi. How are you? Why is it in a city of ten million men you always see the one you don't want and never see the one you-

Mr. Big: Hi.

Carrie: Hi. What are you doing down there?

Mr. Big: It's a wobbly table. Guess I have the touch. Would you care to join us?

Carrie: Hinge.

Mr. Big: What?

Carrie: Your crossword puzzle. Five-letter word. "To bring together." Hinge. Nice seeing you. Bye.

Woman: Bye.

Mr. Big: Excuse me. Hey, just so you know, I would've gotten hinge on my own. Maybe.

Carrie: I have no doubt.

Mr. Big: Now that I've got Jack hooked up, I'm single again. Maybe we could have dinner sometime.

Carrie: I don't know. I'm good at crossword puzzles. I'm just not so good at people puzzles.

Mr. Big: Anywhere you want. Just you and me.

Carrie: Call me. As I walked away, I had a thought: Maybe all men are a drug. Sometimes they bring you down and sometimes, like now, they get you so high.
