佩琦o弗莱明：早上好。

麦琦o卡朋特：你觉得我和考力调情？

佩琦：你也早上好。气色很好嘛。

麦琦：谢谢。你觉得我和考力调情？

佩琦：对。

麦琦：我不是认真的。

佩琦：我了解。我想有时你仿佛有一股子旺盛的骚劲发作起来，刚好落在任何一个活动着的雄性身上。

麦琦：任何活动着的雄性，对比任何不动的雄性？

佩琦：噢，好比珊瑚虫之类的。

麦琦：我想自杀。

佩琦：为何？

麦琦：由于你觉得我是如此的人，喂，男性，看看我啊.

佩琦：不对，我不如此觉得。我觉得你是那种我有魔力，有神秘感，即使我不可以理解，但我身上有一种东西正呼喊着寻求像你这种高大男性的保护.这种东西是非常难与之对抗的，尤其是对那些已婚并已失去神秘感的女子来讲。

麦琦：失去你有你非常神秘。

佩琦：不，我是怪异。怪异和神秘是两种完全不一样的东西。

麦琦：我才是怪异。

佩琦：不，你非常善变。善变和怪异是两种完全不一样的东西。

麦琦：佩琦，我觉得有一种明显的可能性，我错了，错得乱七八糟、不可救药。虽然我爱你，而且我答应你不再和考力调情。

佩琦：麦琦，我不是担忧你和考力或是我和考力或是你错得如何不可救药。麦琦，从小你就是如此，我所想的就是，目前你已经意识到了这点，这有时非常伤其他人的感情。或许是好好生活的时候了，把自己托付给你一个人的人，像鲍勃那样的，假如他是你想要的。

麦琦：我了解。我可以做些什么来补偿吗？

佩琦：噢，有一件事总能给我心灵带来温暖，就是鸭嘴兽。

麦琦：鸭嘴像在桦树营时才好玩

佩琦：来一个，快。

麦琦：携带帐篷旅游，我的腿就是杆子，天下着雨，你了解那时才真叫好玩。

佩琦：大家再来一次。

句子模仿秀

这句话妙在它的用词，如spaz out， lands on， male that moves. 这种感受一般不太好表达，更别说用一句话说了解。而这一句非常精辟，生动形象，充满智慧。
