&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reporter:&lt;/strong&gt; I have a question to Robert and to Scarlett. Firstly to Robert, throughout Iron Man 1 and 2, Tony Stark started off as a very egotistical character but learns how to fight as a team. And so how did you approach this role, bearing in mind that kind of maturity as a human being when it comes to the Tony Stark character, and did you learn anything throughout the three movies that you made?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;And to Scarlett, to get into shape for Black Widow did you have anything special to do in terms of the diet, like did you have to eat any specific food, or that sort of thing?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Scarlett:&lt;/strong&gt; How come you get the really interesting existential question, and I get the like, “rabbit food” question?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/em&gt;The respect given to you if you’re a man in the entertainment business, and the respect given to you if you’re a woman in the entertainment business: all perfectly summed up in one idiotically thought out line of questioning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You know, I always did like Scarlett Johannson.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dat side-eye.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Zooey Deschanel: Let's get tomato soup delivered!&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: ...That's fine, I just... I just don't know anyone who does that. Gets tomato soup delivered. I guess that's 'whimsy?' Um, okay. I've found a number of restaurants whose reviews mention tomato soup and that deliver. If that's... if that's what you really want.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Zooey Deschanel: Good. 'Cause I don't wanna put on real shoes.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: Do you expect that to be like, a recognizable command? Do you want me to respond to that? I'm not being facetious or anything, I honestly just have no comprehension of- and hold on, you don't wanna put on real shoes, yet you've clearly spent at least forty-five minutes applying makeup. And, and that's okay, but when you're willing to expend the effort on that and not shoes that really just-&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Zooey Deschanel: Remind me to clean up.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: Yes. Okay. I can do that, that's what I'm for, that's the first sensible-&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Zooey Deschanel: Tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: I'm in hell. This is hell.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Zooey Deschanel: Excellent. Today, we're dancing.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: I hate you. More than anything. More than literally anything.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Zooey Deschanel: Play "Shake, Rattle and Roll."&lt;br /&gt;&#13;
Siri: I swear to Jesus, you're gonna wake up tomorrow and the only thing on my hard drive is gonna be Limp Bizkit. I would do that to myself. To spite you.&lt;br /&gt;&#13;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You learn not to assume things. You learn not to assume that the day you spent together in bed and took photos of each other against that white wall was important to both of you. In reality, only one of you will ever care about that day. Only one of you will flinch when you see the white wall again. The other person will forget it ever happened. You’ll have to remind them, years later when you meet for coffee, about the pictures and you’ll feel so stupid for holding it so dear. Why do you have to be the one who remembers that day? You assumed that your memories would be the same. You didn’t know that one gets to forget and the other has to remember.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You learn that the person who once protected you from all harm could one day &lt;em&gt;become&lt;/em&gt; the harm. They could become the thing they spent so much time shielding you from. That’s how it always seems to work though, doesn’t? We give people power over our lives, we let them dictate the rhythms, and then we act surprised when there’s scratches.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You learn about the cruelty of time, the cruelty of fickleness. You learn that it’s possible for the person who knew you the best to eventually know nothing at all. You counted on them always knowing. You took solace in someone keeping score. But reliance is the first thing to go in a break up. You lose the right to call someone. You lose the right to ask how they’re doing. Imagine that. One day you had a VIP pass to their life and the next, you’re shut out completely. They’ll tell their grandma more things than they’d tell you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You learn how bad heartbreak can hurt. All of a sudden you’ll be relating to sad love songs and feeling like such a chump. You listened to them before but never quite understood why they had so much resonance with people. Then you realized that it’s strictly for people who’ve dealt with the loss of love. To get the full effect of a Patsy Cline song, someone has to take an emotional dump on your face. Otherwise you’ll just be like “Gee, this lady sure sounds sad!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You’ll learn terrifying things about yourself. Most notably, the fact that heartbreak will turn you insane and obsessive. It makes you irrational and cripplingly nostalgic.  (Your friends will even get fed up with you for a bit because you’re so cray cray.)  There’s no real way to fix a broken heart other than time and sleeping with the next person you could potentially love. It takes someone’s else dick to get over the last one.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most importantly, you’ll learn that it will all be okay in the end. Just like time killed your relationship, it will also be the thing that repairs you. Eventually enough time will pass that you’ll have nothing left to mourn. You’ll develop swiss cheese holes in your memory about the relationship. All you’ll recall are occasional flashes of happiness and feel grateful for it. You understand that this is just how life works. You fall in and out of love with people until you land somewhere that makes sense. You’ve learned a new secret about life and people. You get it now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s bitter to know.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
