AMcD:
And how about you? How many have you slept with?
HG:
Christ! Nothing like that many. I don't know... I don't know what the fuck l've been doing with my time. Work, probably. Yeah, work. I have been working late a lot.
AND THEN QUITE A WHILE LATER HE REFERENCES HOW MAY HE HAS SLEPT WITH:
HG:
Look. Sorry.
I just... Well...
This is a really stupid question,
particularly in view of our shopping excursion,
but I just wondered if by any chance...
Obviously not, because
l've only slept with nine people.
But l... I just wondered...

In short, to recap
in a slightly clearer version,
in the words of David Cassidy,
while still with the Partridge Family,

I just wondered whether
by any chance you wouldn't like to...
No. No, of course not.
I'm an idiot. He's not.
Excellent. Fantastic.
Lovely to see you.
Sorry to disturb. Better get on.

HG:
Well, I thought it over a lot, you know.
I wanted to get it just right.
Important to have said it, I think.
AMcD:
Said what, exactly?
HG:
Said, you know, what I just said about David Cassidy.
