A conversation from the TV show "Ugly Betty"
Betty: As we all know, living in Manhattan can be expensive.
Wilhelmina: Really? I hadn't noticed.
Daniel: There's no need to be sarcastic, Wilhelmina.
Wilhelmina: No. I honestly never noticed.
Why did the speaker say "hadn't noticed" and not "haven't noticed"?
