"Harry, you never called" - a plot hole, deleted scenes?

When Harry met that chick again in a hotel in Aspen, she said to him: "Harry, you never called". However, that was only the second time they met, the first one being at a gas station a few days before when she refused to give him her phone number, so why did she expect him to ever call her? Either there were some extra scenes that would explain it (deleted during a production) or that's a minor plot hole.

I always figured it was just her way of getting him to come over so she could let him know what was going on and give him the gun and bulletproof vest.

Yeah, this. Just a way of saying "hey, remember me?".

No, his feet and legs were on fire and she was midway through giving her number when he got impatient and yelled at her, so she drove off.

I figured she was playing on Harry's Stupidity. A lot of things you dismiss with them being idiots maybe except Llyod reading the writing in the Bathroom that might be questionable

She was about to give him her number, but then changed her mind when witnessing his buffoonery.

The second time she appeared, she wasn't actually accusing him of not calling. She was just introducing herself, or giving herself a big reveal, in a glib way. Instead of saying; "Hey, Harry. Yeah, it's me. The woman from the gas station who nearly gave you her number. Guess what? I'm involved in all of this...."
