Eventually the man threatens to call his manager of she continues to bother him. It's not clear if he's playing along, though it seems that way.
In the famed 2001 film, Jonathan (played by Cusack) meets Beckinsale's Sara and after the elevator scene, the duo are left without a way to find each other. Then 10 years later, both are about to marry other people when they go on a journey to reconnect.
They eventually find each other, and all ends with the duo falling in love and living happily ever after. No word on what happened to their poor partners they left behind, but that's movie magic.
The film also stars Jeremy Piven, Eugene Levy and Bridget Moynahan.
