50 First Dates (2004)

Question: Maybe I missed something, but why has Henry never met Lucy before? She's been coming to the diner everyday for a while when the movie takes place and everyone else seems to know about her, so why is he just noticing her now?

Answer: Henry never went to the diner before his boat broke down. It was his first time in the diner, so that's why he never met Lucy before that day.

Answer: You can hear Henry say, "the boat has never gone that far" at the beginning. So maybe he's never been to that part of the place before.
