It's not always flying sparks and fiery passion when you meet a future love for the first time. For Emma Stone as Billie Jean King in Battle of the Sexes, it's more of a breath-stealing, deer-in-the-headlights reaction when she meets Andrea Riseboroguh as Marilyn Barnett.

In an OUT-exclusive clip, Stone sits down in a Riseborough's stylist chair before being asked the loaded question: "So, Billie Jean, what do you want?"

Battle of the Sexes is in theaters this Friday, September 22.
