Apology via a Shakespeare quote?
Eddie has no friends. His younger sister adores him, and he has somehow managed to hang on to a loyal manservant, but he is utterly unlike his counterpart in the film. Paige has a coterie of friends, is doing work in her field (her going away party appears genuinely motivated), and even the rathskeller boss needs her waitressing skills. Eddie, meanwhile, is merely rich and bored. He has no one outside the castle who wants his company but sycophantic flirts.

So, of course, the movie requires that these two opposites meet (like two oppositely charged ions). Eddie tries to pick up Paige in the rathskellar and gets himself thrown out. His apology after organic chemistry class is dismissed by Paige: "I love being made to feel like a brainless slut by some sloppy lush." He tries to up the ante with a Shakespeare quote:
I have learned me to repent the sin
Of disobedient opposition
To you and your behests, [I] am enjoin'd
[and] beg your pardon.<ref>[http://www.opensourceshakespeare.org/views/plays/play_view.php?WorkID=romeojuliet&Act=4&Scene=2&Scope=scene Romeo and Juliet]</ref>
