Daily Dialogue — May 17, 2017

Mia: [sips milkshake] Mm. Yummy.
Vincent: Think I could have a sip of that?
Mia: [slides milkshake over to Vincent] Be my guest.
Vincent: I gotta know what a five dollar shake tastes like.
Mia: You can use my straw, I don’t have cooties.
Vincent: Yeah, but maybe I do.
Mia: Cooties I can handle.

Vincent takes a sip. Then another.

Vincent: Goddamn, that’s a pretty fucking good milkshake. 
Mia: Told ya’.
Vincent: Don’t know if it’s worth five dollars, but it’s pretty fucking good.

— Pulp Fiction (1994), written by Quentin Tarantino, stories by Roger Avary and Quentin Tarantino
