The meaning of "let’s-do-this-again"?
I'm reading a book called "Mini Shopaholic".
Here are the dialogues..
‘So … you’ll never tell him?’ I venture. ‘Ever? He’ll never know it was you?’
“ He will never know. ” She looks at Suze dispassionately. “ Please stand aside so I can leave. ”
That’s it? No high fives, group hugs, let’s-do-this-again?
I wonder why "let’s-do-this-again" uses hyphen to link the words?
Could anyone tell me the meaning of it?

I think the hyphens are to guide the reader into understanding that "let's do this again" is an "object" of "No" rather than a separate statement, i.e. it means:
No high fives, no group hugs, no "let’s do this again"?
No high fives, no group hugs, no "let’s do this again"?
