Anne Shirley:
Well, if you must know, I was in Diana's skiff but it sprang a leak and I had to climb onto the piling or sink. Now, if you'd be so kind as to row me to the landing.
Gilbert Blythe:
Ah, I see. Well, then the fact is I rescued you.
Anne Shirley:
Help was on the way and I was calmly waiting for it.
Gilbert Blythe:
You're most welcome.
Anne Shirley:
I am grateful for your assistance, Mr. Blythe, even though it was not required. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find my friends. They are likely overcome with fear for my life.
Gilbert Blythe:
Well, Anne, wait. Wait a minute. I was just down at the post office to see if the Queens results had been printed.
Anne Shirley:
Congratulations on coming first, Gilbert. I'm sure you're very proud of your achievements.
Gilbert Blythe:
Wait a second, you ninny. We tied for first place. You and I. I figured you'd have it for sure. We all passed our entire class.
Anne Shirley:
First of all two hundred?
Gilbert Blythe:
I'm sorry you had to share it with me.
Anne Shirley:
I never expected to beat you.
Gilbert Blythe:
Can't we be friends now? This childishness has gone on long enough, don't you think?
Anne Shirley:
The fact that you rescued me unnecessarily hardly wipes out past wrongs.
Gilbert Blythe:
Look, I'm sorry I ever said anything about your hair. You have no idea how sorry. But it was so long ago. Aren't you ever going to forgive me?
Anne Shirley:
You hurt my feelings excruciatingly.
Gilbert Blythe:
I only said it because I Because I wanted to meet you so much.
Anne Shirley:
Why did you turn your back on me at the Christmas ball?
Gilbert Blythe:
Anne, that was over a year ago.
Anne Shirley:
It was a deliberate humiliation.
Gilbert Blythe:
And I knew exactly what you were thinking, too, Anne Shirley. You and Diana Barry. Look, can we be friends now?
Anne Shirley:
Why don't you figure it out, if you're so clever?
Gilbert Blythe:
Anne, wait a minute.
Anne Shirley:
Everyone will think I've drowned.
