  mike'ın abby'e erkekler hakkında öğütler yağdırdığı, abby'nin ise şaşkın bir ifade ile sorularını sıraladığı sahne, filmin en komik sahnelerinden biriydi ancak çokbilmiş ilişki uzmanı mike'ın, filmin sonunda abby'e sırılsıklam aşık olma klişesi film boyunca anlatılan onca şeyi bir anda sildi süpürdü.
  
  mike: rule number one: never criticize.
  abby: even if it's constructive?
  m: never. men are incapable of growth, change or progress. for men, self-improvement ends at toilet training.
  and rule number two: laugh at whatever he says.
  a: what if what he says isn't funny?
  m: that's irrelevant. a fake laugh is like a fake orgasm.
  a: a fake orgasm is good?
  m: no, but a fake orgasm is better than no orgasm at all.
  a: a fake orgasm is no orgasm.
  m: only to you. you're not the only person in the room, you know. let's not be selfish. rule number three: men are very visual. we have to change your look.
  a: what's wrong with my look?
  m: abby, you're a very attractive woman, but you are completely inaccessible. you're all about comfort and efficiency.
  a: what's wrong with comfort?
  m: well, nothing, except no one wants to fuck it. rule number four: never talk about your problems ...because men don't
  really listen or care.
  a: some men care.
  m: no, some men pretend to care. when we ask you how you're doing, it's guy code for: "let me stick my dick in your ass" oh, i know you think colin is
  above it all, but trust me, he's a guy. if he's even remotely into you... he's probably thought about your orifices at least 10 times.
  a: i love how you assume all men are as perverse as you are.
  m: oh, i don't assume. i know. wait. we need to make one more stop.
  a: why? i have tons of stuff.
  m: we have to make your hair longer. men like something to grab onto other than your ass.
  a: my hair is fine. there's nothing wrong.
  m: abby, a ponytail implies that you are either operating heavy machinery... or emptying the litter box. neither of those things inspires an erection.
  a: why is it my responsibility to inspire an erection? isn't that his job?
  m: shut up.
