Harry and Sally Talk Like This, Explained：get out there
Harry and Sally try out a whole new way of speaking, ordering paprikash in a stiff, formal accent: “Waiter, there is too much pepper on my paprikash.” The game keeps the flirtation at arm's length, until talk turns to dates and Harry's pointed questions about Sally's. “What, do you have a hot date?”
あらすじ
At a restaurant, Harry and Sally decide to spend the day speaking in an affected, old-fashioned register. They order their food that way, drawing out the vowels, and the joke becomes a way to keep their closeness light. Later they compare evenings; Sally has a date, and Harry, who is divorced, admits he is not ready.

What's really going on
The invented voice is a defense. By agreeing to “talk like this,” Harry and Sally get to be intimate and ridiculous at the same time — flirting without saying anything they would have to mean. “What, do you have a hot date?” breaks the game: the affected accent drops and the real jealousy shows. Sally's happy answer forces Harry to ask about his own life, and his reply, “I would not be good for anybody right now,” is the most honest line he has spoken. The rest of the scene stays funny — a bad date described as a man flossing with a pulled-out hair — but underneath it the two of them keep circling the same question about why they are not with each other.
Theme
RomanceThe silly accent lets them flirt safely, until the talk of dates makes the attraction impossible to hide.

The first date back is always the toughest.The rule Harry offers about returning to dating after a divorce — reassurance wrapped in a warning about what is still ahead.
I would not be good for anybody right now.Harry's blunt self-assessment: he believes he is too damaged to be a decent partner at this moment.
Had my dream again where I'm making love and the Olympic judges are watching.The recurring dream he describes — scored like a sport — shows how much of his life he experiences as performance and judgment.
But I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie.The exaggerated, formal line in their game: a joke about using ridiculously fancy manners for something as ordinary as pie.
このシーンについての質問
Why do Harry and Sally start talking in that strange accent?
It is a game they invent on the spot. The formal, old-fashioned voice lets them be silly and affectionate together without having to mean any of it, which keeps the tension manageable.
Why does Harry react so strongly to Sally's date?
He has just divorced and is not dating, so her evening out makes him aware of his own loneliness. He hides it behind questions, then admits he is not ready for anyone.
Is Harry telling the truth about not being good for anybody?
It reads as honest self-knowledge rather than a joke. He says it plainly after the accent game ends, and Sally does not argue with him, only tells him to get out there.
What is the bad date Sally describes?
She says the man reached over, pulled a hair from her head and started flossing with it, which is why she calls it the most uncomfortable night of her life.
