Quote #5 "I'll have what she's having." When Harry Met Sally (1989)
"I'll have what she's having," Francine announced to the waiter as she clapped her menu closed.
The waiter looked nervously at Amanda then back to Francine, "Are you sure, Miss Desmond?"
Francine rolled her eyes and looked at him, "Yes, Anthony, I'm sure!"
"But, um, Miss Desmond, do you remember the last time you ordered-" Anthony questioned Francine again.
"I know what I ordered, Anthony! And yes, I do remember what happened the last time, but that had nothing to do with it. Now, are you going to place my order or not?" Francine snapped.
When Anthony the waiter walked away shaking his head, Amanda leaned forward and whispered, "Francine, what happened the last time?"
"The last time, what?" Francine tipped her head to the side, confused about Amanda's question.
"The last time you ordered what I ordered," Amanda whispered again.
Francine laughed and flipped her hand to the side, "Oh, that! Well, it was a simple misunderstanding."
Amanda wrinkled her forehead and asked, "A misunderstanding?"
Francine laughed again, crossed her legs and put her hand on the table to explain. "So, I was here with a new date wearing a hot little backless number. We had just ordered our dessert and I took a bite of the same sinfulness we just ordered when another waitress accidentally dropped a glass of water. It bumped the back of my chair and well, you know how shocking ice-cold water feels running down your bare back? I guess the noises I made sounded like something else and I managed to draw the attention of everyone in the restaurant including Anthony." She punctuated her story with a nod in the waiter's direction.
"Wait, so you ordered what we just ordered, and they thought…" Amanda's eyes grew wide as realization struck.
"They thought the dessert was much better than what my date gave me later that night, I'll tell you! And my brand new, one of a kind Thierry Mugler original was completely ruined! I could never wear it again!" Francine exclaimed.
Amanda shook her head in sympathy, "Your dress was ruined by the water?"
"Oh, no! Amanda, darling, the water didn't ruin my dress. Anthony did when he dropped a full plate of spaghetti on my lap. He was so startled and from how it appears, he still hasn't recovered," Francine explained with a giggle.
Anthony arrived a moment later, carrying a tray with two molten lava cakes complete with vanilla bean ice cream and mint leaves. He placed the oozing chocolate desserts before them and took two steps backward. "Can I get you, ladies, anything else?" he asked nervously.
Amanda took her first bite and moaned loudly as she partially closed her eyes.
"Oh no! Not another one!" Anthony exclaimed. He moved away from their table quickly and ducked into the kitchen yelling, "I can't do this anymore!"
Amanda and Francine took one look at each other and burst into laughter. "You did that on purpose, didn't you?" Francine asked when she finally caught her breath.
Amanda winked, shrugged her shoulders and whispered, "Maybe."
