But in the film the exchange is:

When I watched the movie I never got the joke and knew it was a joke since they shared a little smile. But I sure got it once I read the script.
This is a good example of something that works great on the page, but doesn't work at all on screen. People don't stop mid-word and, if they did in the film, it'd sound really artificial and forced.
My guess is they found out it didn't sound right during the shoot and made a fix they hoped would work.
