In every relationship, the time will come when jealousy, that green -eyed

monster, rears its ugly head. I know it's early, but I don't know. I think

might be perfect.

So I'm hung up on one little detail here. So you went out on a date with a

man.

Our third date, and he's a doctor. A human doctor.

I thought you said he was a chiropractor.

He is.

Oh, good. So in an emergency, he can massage the doctor who's actually saving

your life.

What does your girlfriend do? I mean, besides deflate and fit in a box.

You kidding me?

Drinks? Anyone?

Good ones don't deflate.

Oh, come on.

Aaron will not stop bugging me about this case. It's 10 .30. Stop working.

So, um, what does Kate think about you pulling all -nighters with your ex? I

haven't told her yet, but...

You know, it hasn't come up. And why create any, you know, unnecessary drama?

You're right. Don't. You can't tell Kate. You know how crazy women get?

confront Aaron about trying to steal her man. Next thing you know, they're going

to be fighting, clawing at each other's clothes and pulling each other's hair,

getting all hot and sweaty. And you have got to tell Kate.

Tell me what?

Um, well, that I will be busy for the next few nights because I am, uh,

I'm working on a case.

Yeah, anything interesting?

Nope.

Ben, hey, I'm glad I caught you. About tonight.

Tonight, what? Who?

Oh, hello.

Ah, Aaron. You remember Kate? Kate. Aaron.

I like your blouse.

And I'm not just saying that because you used to date Ben and now I date Ben and

I don't want things to be awkward. It's not awkward for me. It's not awkward for

me either.

It's starting to get a little awkward for me.

So is this a bad time to talk about... The chef's heat deposition? Yeah, can we

just catch up in like five minutes?

Fine. And bring your revisions for the Seagate contract. And since we'll be

working through dinner, I ordered takeout from the Shanghai Palace. Don't

I got your precious Peking duck and some Pepto Bismol because I know it does the

number on you.

Not every time.

This is me. See you tonight, Ben.

Kate.

Hi.

So, um, the big cake you're working on is with Aaron? Yeah. Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm.

Yeah. Did I not mention that? I'm pretty sure. No, I told you that. I'm pretty

sure. Didn't I mention that? That's weird.

Ben, calm down. I'm totally fine with it. Have fun.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, bye. Okay. Bye.

But what does it mean when jealousy doesn't rear its ugly head?

See that, Larry?

You got me worried for nothing.

I know. There was neither angry wrestling nor tender kissing.

It's actually a bit strange when you think about it.

That they didn't fight and then make out, not that strange.

No, that they didn't actually do anything.

You know, Kate acted like she couldn't care less. You know, I'm actually

relieved that Kate is not jealous.

You know, it's just it shows how much...

We trust each other. I don't think there's any way you could sound less

confident about that. Larry, stop, okay?

We are in a great place.

I stand corrected.

That was less confident.

Our love is volatile, chemical, anything but typical.

I want you badly.

I love you badly.

If you're feeling insecure about your relationship, you can easily misread

the smallest gesture, or lack of gesture.

Sorry.

Garlic pickles.

Okay.

Um, so, Kate, listen, I, uh, I wanted to make sure that you were really cool

with the whole Aaron thing.

Oh, God, Ben, it's fine. I couldn't care less.

Oh.

Great. Okay.

Uh, so, Connie?

Day off?

No, I have to get back soon. I'm just here to meet Dave.

That's great. Your new boyfriend works in our building? Well, he's not my new

boyfriend. He's just a guy who left his watch at my apartment last night. Whoa!

Ben, Ben, Ben, Ben, Ben! Ben, I just saw her, but she got away.

Oh, good. We can cancel the Amber Alert.

Not right now.

Did you get a location?

Location on what? The white whale.

The white whale.

The white whale. The white whale, Kate, is a beautiful woman who, like the great

Moby Dick, eludes me and my harpoon.

Wasn't first until the end.

I first saw her three years ago whilst going over some work.

And she smiled a crooked little smile at me that said, come hither, Lauren.

Lauren!

She surfaces from time to time.

before diving back under. But the search is over, my friend, because I saw her

get on the elevator, I watched the numbers, and I now know exactly what

she works on. It's either 18 or 19 or 21, 25, 29, 30, 34,

36, 40, 42, or 45.

And maybe 48.

Okay, see, you do that, but yesterday when I asked you to remember a three

-digit case number, you pretended to be asleep.

I was tired. We were in court.

Okay, I am going to get a cookie.

Um, Kate, can I get you anything?

No, thanks, I'm good.

I'm good, too, Ben.

Oh, God, it's Nick. Huh? Who's Nick? He works in the surveillance room. I hired

him a year ago.

He's a nice guy, but he's pretty weird, and he smells like sweet.

What kind of soup?

Oh, boy. Kate.

Hi, Nick.

I saw you in the old Eye in the Sky up there, and I thought, I haven't seen

in a while. I wonder what she's up to.

So what are you up to?

Just having some lunch with my friends Connie and Larry.

Hello.

Who ordered soup?

Nick, this is my friend Ben. Oh, hey.

Nick saw me on the old Eye in the Sky.

Oh.

Yeah, actually, I should probably get down there. I just realized my shirt's

inside out.

Hey, uh, hey, hey. He works in the surveillance room?

Does that mean that you have access to the surveillance room? Please. I work in

the management office.

I have access to everything.

Perfect. Oh, my gosh. I'm not due in court until three. You can help me find

white whale.

It is totally forbidden to use the surveillance room to spy on people,

So let's do it.

Nice. Minestrone!

Nick smells like minestrone.

I'm good with soup smells.

I gotta go see Dave.

Oh, come. I really want to meet him.

Did you hear that? What? Kate. She introduced me as her friend.

Plus, she wouldn't kiss me when I walked up.

She is really up the ante in your little game of love here.

Your next move, obviously, would be to have sex with a stripper.

All right, fine. Look, look, look. Do you want me to handle this for you,

Just say the word.

I'll give her something to think about.

Larry, I don't want you to handle it for me. All right. Yeah, yeah.

I won't handle it for you.

Why are you saying it like that?

You're going to do something, aren't you? No. No, Ben.

I'm not.

Dave, I'm so glad we could finally meet. Connie says the nicest things about

you. She does.

Doesn't sound like Connie.

You're right, that was a test. And you passed.

Hello, ladies.

Who have we here?

Larry, this is Dr. David Evans, and that's the elevator.

Larry, nice to meet you. I'm sorry, was it Mr.

Evans? Dr.

Evans. I specifically said doctor.

Oh, my bad. I didn't realize they gave chiropractors that title, too.

I'm just gonna go get a coffee. Do you have a coffee? I need another.

You'll have to excuse Larry. He just found out that the only people with his

hairstyle are middle -aged lesbians.

No, Larry's right. I only went to school for seven years, whereas medical

doctors go to school for eight.

See that, Larry? Seven years. How many years do you have to go to school to be

lawyer? Technically three, but the joke is on you because it took me five.

Well, Larry, why don't you take my card in case you have any trouble with your

lower back? My lower back is fine.

It won't be.

Well, I got to go. Tell Kate it was lovely meeting her. And Larry, I met

Oh, so glad he didn't like you. I would have had to break up with him. No, no,

no, no. He seems great.

He seems so great. That's what I was just saying, except for I was lying.

He's smart and funny. Too bad he's not handsome.

I know. He's totally gross, right?

Oh, my gosh.

I like somebody.

Buy some one day. Awesome.

Still love the blouse.

Thank you. I liked yours, too, when that style was popular.

Anyway, sorry to run, but I've got to go work with... Ben, in the deli. I know.

I'm so excited for you guys, so have a blast.

Kind of freaking out about Ben and Aaron working together, huh?

No. Didn't you hear me? I specifically said have a blast because I was so

unconcerned and carefree.

About the whole thing?

Uh -huh.

Honey, please, they're two lawyers working together, okay? That is all

doing.

This peaking duck is so succulent.

It almost takes my mind off the fact that law is such sobering work.

You know, sometimes it seems like all we deal with is death.

You know, the one good thing about dealing with all this death makes me

alive.

You're thinking of a scene from the porno version of The Firm, aren't you?

Somebody didn't even bother to change the name.

Elaine, I'm freaking out. I mean, Ben and Erin have this history together, and

she's this high -powered attorney, and they can talk about law stuff.

I mean, not that I can't talk about law stuff.

Well, you already know the term law stuff.

Don't be jealous.

Ben is a good guy, and if you get all jealous girlfriend on him, you might

freak him out.

Oh, this is amazing, Nick.

Oh, this is... Oh, my gosh. That woman just picked her bag glove up before and

ate it. No hesitation.

You know, you really should not be spying on people, Nick. There's a fine

between spying and securing.

They teach you that at a mandatory seminar that I was not able to attend.

Look, there's Ben.

And Aaron.

Kate, I wanted to tell you, you are handling this really well.

Considering. Considering?

Yeah, Ben and Erin's undeniable chemistry.

It's a pretty potent brew.

I hadn't noticed.

Anyway, just so you don't get your hopes up, you should know this could take

hours, maybe days.

There she is, there she is. Pause that, pause that. Bring it back, bring it

back. Oh, there she blows.

Oh, what floor is that?

You see where it says 42?

Yes, it's 42.

Thank you.

Um, do you mind just...

Pulling the deli back up? Oh, we already found the girl. Just show me the damn

deli.

Oh. Oh, hot!

Oh, that's me.

Oh, that's me.

Kate, do you need me to zoom in on anything?

Any body part?

Whatever. Papa.

No, but... Right, you.

Where are you, sweet lady?

I know you're here. I just saw you a minute ago.

Look out. Look out.

Thanks.

Hey, Dave.

You knocking off early? Yeah, we're going to go out to the Gramercy,

the fifth anniversary.

We'll see you tomorrow. Oh, good night.

And there's Connie mocking me, telling me

the white whale doesn't exist.

And the whole time, her boyfriend is married, Benjamin.

Married. I mean, it's just so... And you know I hate it when people use this

word, but there's no other way to put it. It is just so delicious.

You know, Larry, that if you tell Connie, it is going to devastate her.

know.

You know what? How about this? How about you tell Kate, and she can tell Connie

in a nice way. Do you want me to call Kate? I can have her come up here.

Larry, what's going on?

Do you remember how you asked me to handle the Kate situation? Damn it,

Listen, you were freaking out about the friend comment, and I did a little

detective work, okay? It was only to help.

And I got to tell you, buddy, it's not looking good.

Come here.

Larry, enough is enough, okay?

I'm just going to ask her myself what is going on.

Knock, knock.

And there she is. Hey, Ben. Larry, I've been looking for you. Did you meet the

white whale?

Uh, no.

No, no, no. I went looking for her, but I got distracted because I saw the most

amazing thing I've ever seen in my life.

A bum giving another bum CPR.

Um, okay.

Well, Nick told me that he knows the white whale schedule.

He also told me my schedule, which was creepy, but also very helpful because I

think you're wasting a lot of time in the afternoons. Anyway, he said she gets

on elevator number 12 at 6 .15. Oh, my gosh. This Nick's a bit of a stalker,

huh? Oh, okay.

I'm going to go camp out in the lobby and wait for her. Thanks, Kate.

So, Kate, I want to talk to you about something.

Hi. Hello.

Kate? Sorry to break this up, but we've got to get back to work.

Um, so maybe we could talk later?

Yeah, sure. Uh, grab some coffee?

Yeah. Okay. I'll do it. Great.

Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, did I get that same knee? Yeah. I'm sorry. It's

right. That's why we have two.

Sorry.

Um, okay.

Bye.

Ow! That paid the money.

Hey, what's wrong with you?

Oh, uh, nothing.

Nothing. I'm good. I'm sorry. I'm good.

I'm great, in fact. Fantastic.

Exceptional. Superb, even.

Wow, Ben, this isn't a musical. Simple nothing would suffice.

Sorry. I'm eating all your fries. You should stop me.

You are adorable.

You're not so bad as yourself.

I gotta pee.

How adorable is that?

Afternoon, doctor.

I met you already.

Shouldn't have to meet you again.

Or have a seat.

Let me ask you something.

What's it like being all handsome and stuff?

Bet you'd do okay with the ladies, right? Throwing those bedroom eyes all

them.

You hitting on me?

You'd love that, wouldn't you?

No, that would make me feel weird.

You know what makes me feel weird?

Adultery. So don't do it.

Don't you do it. Are you really a lawyer?

I saw you with your wife, dude, okay?

You took her to the Gramercy for your five -year anniversary.

If you don't remember, I can have your buddy Rob corroborate for me. Hear that

word, corroborate? So, yeah.

I'm a lawyer.

What are you going to do? Are you going to tell Connie?

No.

You are.

Shaboom.

It's another lawyer term.

That's well known.

Kate, hey, it's me.

Listen,

bad news.

I'm not going to be able to get that coffee.

Yeah, Aaron and I have to work.

Mm -hmm. Yeah, we're going to go to the deli and then head back up.

Might be an all -nighter.

You're okay with that, right?

Good.

Okay, bye.

What? Baby, she has no idea about us, okay? And if we're careful, she never

to. I mean, doesn't that make it a little more exciting?

Hey. Have you been down here this whole time?

What?

Oh, oh, my gosh. Oh.

Oh, it's 615, the White Whale. It's going to be down here any minute. Wow.

this is it, huh? Are you ready for this fantasy to become a reality?

You sound like an emcee at a strip club.

What are you so happy about, huh?

I just realized that something I was looking for was there all along if I

opened my eyes to see it.

Are you stoned right now?

You're talking like a guy who's really stoned.

Good luck with the whale, Ahab. Thank you. Don't need luck.

Got my harpoon.

Oh, good.

Jelly's up.

Getting to know someone is all about getting to know their flaws.

Dip.

I'm good.

And you know you're in the right relationship when those flaws just make

like that person more.

a different way out of this building.

Well, you can't set up a zip line from the 25th floor, if that's what you're

thinking, because apparently that would be too much fun.

So, um, where's Dave?

I broke up with him.

Yeah, turns out he was a pompous ass, so go ahead, gloat. I can take it.

No,

I'm not. I'm not going to gloat. I think you've had enough of me being right for

one day. You've got to play havoc on your self -esteem. I mean...

You're already so insecure and angry.

So is this you not gloating? Because I'd hate to see you not sweating.

Well, cheer up, all right? I'm sure the perfect person is out there somewhere.

I'm done looking for the perfect person. That only ends in disappointment. From

now on, I'm just looking for someone who's real.

You're not even listening to me.

What?

I'm going to go get a drink.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what? I guess I could go with you.

I didn't invite you.

Fine, fine. But you have to pay and promise not to talk to me.

Don't make me promise to do something I was already going to do. It's like me

making you promise to have no plans on a Friday night.

I'm so sorry about your white whale, Larry. Yeah, I'll find her one day.

You know, even if I don't, maybe there's as much joy in the hunt as there is in

the harpooning.

And by harpooning, I mean... We know.
