I *know* I know this line, but I can't remember from where. It sounds like it could be Sorkin, but who knows.

(The words might not be exact, but it's very much like this, if not.)

"I know there's some combination of words that I could use to make you forgive me, so could we just pretend that I said those words and skip to the next part?"

Can anyone help me out here?

I *think* that's a slightly abstracted version of what Tara says to Willow when they make up with one another after their big fight, but off the top of my head I can't tell you what episode of Buffy it is. I do know it's within one episode or so of when Tara gets shot and Willow goes on a black-haired rampage.

Nope, it's definitely not that scene, though I know exactly what speech you're talking about: Tara says something like "can't we just skip that part... can't you just be kissing me?"

That's not it.

Tara starts out saying that they had to take time to rebuild trust, and did a long speech about the kind of give and take needed to rebuild the relationship ... *then* says "can't we just skip that part...etc." It wasn't that short a speech.

Other than that, no. I don't remember it in Sorkin unless it was in Studio 60, which I quit after the first four or so eps.

here from network; I know this isn't the whole quote, but the beginning part "I know there's some combination of words that I could use to make you forgive me" is very similar to a line from Breaking Bad. but I don't think it included that second part, so.
