Quote #7
DORY: No. No, you can't. Stop! Please don't go away. Please? No one's ever stuck with me for so long before. And if you leave... if you leave... I just… I remember things better with you. I do, look. P. Sherman, forty-two... forty-two... I remember it, I do. It's there. I know it is, because when I look at you, I can feel it. And I look at you, and I... and I'm home. Please... I don't want that to go away. I don't want to forget.
MARLIN: I'm sorry, Dory, but I do.
And here's why Dory's stuck with Marlin this whole time. He helps her, too. Other fish don't tend to like her, but Marlin hung with her, and that's why she can remember again. She sees his familiar face—something she's been missing all her life.
Quote #8
NEMO: Are you all right?
DORY: I don't know where I am... I don't know what's going on. I think I lost somebody but I, I can't remember... and I can't remember...
NEMO: It's okay, it's okay. I'm looking for somebody too. Hey, we can look together.
DORY: I'm Dory.
NEMO: I'm Nemo.
DORY: Nemo? That's a nice name.
So close, Dory. So close. When Nemo runs into forgetful Dory all by her lonesome, we think for a minute that she might recognize him right away. Sure, her recollections have progressed, but not that much. It takes a little more than a name to jog her memory.
