Make up a good-bye at least. Let's pretend we had one.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is one of my favorite movies. And this one is my favorite part:

This is inside the mind of Joel as he is struggling to keep the remaining memories of Clementine, while he is undergoing a medical procedure to remove memories their past failed relationship.



Joel: I walked out, I walked out the door!
Clementine: Why?
Joel: I don't know. I felt like I was a scared little kid, I was like... it was above my head, I don't know.
Clementine: You were scared?
Joel: Yeah. I thought you knew that about me. I ran back to the bonfire, trying to outrun my humiliation.
Clementine: Was it something I said?
Joel: Yeah, you said "so go." With such disdain, you know?
Clementine: Oh, I'm sorry.
Joel: It's okay.

[Walking Out]
Clementine: Joely? What if you stayed this time?
Joel: I walked out the door. There's no memory left.
Clementine: Come back and make up a good-bye at least. Let's pretend we had one.

[Joel comes back]
Clementine: Bye Joel.
Joel: I love you...
