no one gets to tell me if I've lost or if I've won

Yeah. It's especially awesome when you've been mumbling to yourself and then realize you can't properly deliver a line while mumbling so then you end up saying, quite a bit louder than you'd been talking before, "Well, you must have one well-lit apartment, 'cause lady, you turned a corner somewhere!"

...I suppose there are worse lines in that scene to say very loudly. Like "I want badly to see you naked." Still.
