[upbeat music]

- Scarlett! Scarlett, wait!

[car door slams]

- I just thought...

You, you forgot to give me

your number.

- I know.

[Music]

- Love what you've done

with the place.

- Scarlet. Hi.

- Hi.

- I have an audition at 10

and I can't find my cell phone.

I'm sure I had it when I was

doing my sun salutations.

No!

I took a shower and then I

was listening to Mariah!

[cellphone notification]

- Oh, you're kidding!

- Did you find it?

- No.

The Truman job's

just been cancelled.

- Oh, no.

Did they say why?

- Something about a death

in the family.

- Oh, that's terrible.

- Tell me about it.

That job was gonna set me up

for the rest of the year.

- Yeah,

not where I was going with that.

But we could brainstorm later

if you want?

- Nope,

I already got an idea.

Took me half a second.

Wow, I am good!

Do you wanna grab a drink later?

- I would,

but I have a date with Danny

from the bar.

- Oh,

the one that smells like dust?

- He wears a natural deodorant.

- Otherwise known as

human repellent.

- Well, it's working on me.

Speaking of gorgeous men,

the bar has just hired

a new pianist.

He's, ya know,

a little too conventionally

attractive for me,

but he's right up your alley.

Maybe you should swing by,

check him out.

- I would,

but I have almost no faith

in your judgment.

And, right now,

I've got to impress my new boss

because she is the answer

to my prayers.

Which one?

- The blue.

[Music playing]

- Where am I? Where am I?

Okay, Vanderbilt. I! Oh! Uh! Ah!

Sorry...excuse me... I’m sorry

I’m late for a meeting.

Excuse me...sorry...sorry

Hey, sorry about that ...

... excuse me.

- All right. I'm leaving.

- Good luck!

- Thanks. You, too.

Oh,

and have you checked your hand

for your phone?

- Well, there.

- Love you.

- Love you.

[Music playing]

That's all right

I didn't want it anyway.

- Excuse me!

Hey!

Seriously?!

- Hi, Jenny!

- Hi, Scarlett!

Great to see you again.

Thanks for coming.

- Sorry, I know I'm early.

- No, I'm glad you are.

Now I don't have to count

46 bottles of wine and log it

into my little clipboard.

I swear,

event planning is not as fun

as people think.

- Must make you want to count

up to 45

and crack open the last one

just to get through it.

- No. No, it's 9:30!

No, I couldn't.

- A morning mocktail, then.

May I?

- Sure!

- Here's how I see it.

You work hard,

or else you wouldn't have

your own business.

And you know the

drink supply list

inside and out

because it's just

part of the job description.

And because it's the morning,

you have something

light and fruity.

So, I hope you like mango.

- Wow!

Oh, I see.

You're one of those people,

aren't you?

- What people?

One of those people that's just

good at everything.

I mean, you're a photographer,

but you look like a model.

- Well,

I used to be one of those too,

once upon a time.

- Of course you were.

- Don't get me wrong.

The clothes, the catwalks,

all of that was great,

but there was no control,

you know?

What am I saying?

You're clearly

an independent woman.

You get it.

- Yeah, totally.

- I became a photographer.

You know the rest,

and here I am.

- I love you. Your work.

I love your work.

Really excellent work.

I'm just so flattered

you even took this job.

- Please, with views like these?

I mean, this is

every photographer's dream.

I bet it's pretty useful

to own a place like this

when you have a date, right?

- Hey!

Sorry I was late.

I had a little problem

with the elevator.

Somebody wouldn't hold

the door open for me.

- Oh,

I hate it when people do that.

- Yeah, you know,

it really makes you wonder

what happened

in somebody's childhood

to make them such a hoot.

- Then again,

if you were meant to be here

at 9:30, and it is 9:34,

let's say you were at the lobby

at, I don't know, 9:29?

- Yeah, good guess.

- That elevator takes a minute

and a half to get up here,

so you probably would have

been late either way,

even if that person

that you mentioned,

who we shouldn't make

baseless assumptions about,

did hold the elevator for you.

- Well, aren't you

just a ray of sunshine.

- Scarlett Jones.

- Lucas. Lucas Sharpe.

We spoke on the phone.

- Oh, hi. Yes, of course you are

Oh, I mean, not of course.

Obviously, I didn't know

what you looked like

because we spoke over the phone.

Sorry. Oh, my God,

I'm rambling.

Why are you here again?

- The piano auditions.

- The piano audition?

- Yeah.

- But those were yesterday.

- Yesterday? That can't be.

Well, today is

- It's Thursday. Yeah.

And is that a Filofax?

- Hey, it's ok. Oh, sorry.

Look,

I haven't chosen anyone yet.

No one's blown me away.

Why don't you show us

what you can do

while I show Scarlett around?

I'm sure she wouldn't mind.

- I'd actually prefer silence.

- Oh, and Scarlett is

New York's top

urban and city photographer.

Scarlett, this is Lucas.

- Lucas. Yeah.

A pianist with

absolutely no timing.

This is going to be interesting.

- I promise you,

you're not going to regret this.

- Oh, I'm sure I won't.

[soft piano music]

[dramatic piano music]

[soft piano music resumes]

- Oh, sorry. One sec.

It's my insurance guy.

- Sure, no problem.

- Oh, Scarlett,

did you fill out the online

health and safety forms yet?

Says he needs them today.

- No, I completely forgot.

But I will do that right now.

- Great. Oh, and Lucas,

you want to do one too?

- Wait, so I got the job?

- Well, you're not going

to like this one.

In case of emergency,

do not use the elevator.

- Oh, that's really good.

Very funny. Yeah.

Eyes on the prize.

- Oh, there's a prize now?

- You don't even know

who you're working for, do you?

Jenny's mom is Joan Clark.

- What?

- Yeah.

- The Joan Clark?

- The Joan

You have no idea

who that is, do you?

- Not a clue.

- Joan Clark is only the

second biggest architect turned

real estate mogul in Manhattan.

Get an in with Jenny,

and you slipstream your way

straight to Joan.

- Oh, sorry about that.

Oh, before I forget, Lucas,

can you send me your headshots

for the website?

- Oh, actually,

I don't have any headshots.

I've been meaning to get around

to getting some.

- Oh, that's okay.

We'll sort something out.

How are those forms coming?

- Good.

I was just educating Lucas

on who your mom is.

- Oh, yeah,

it's a whole lot of fun

living up to her expectations.

- She is my absolute hero.

I would love to meet her

one day.

Hey, what about drinks tonight

on me to kick off

the official countdown

to the launch of this place?

- I'd love to.

- Good. What is it? 13 days?

- Lucky 13.

- And we can see if

your mom is available.

- Hey, look how that

worked out so easily.

- Sure. Lucas,

do you want to join?

No, you're probably -

...busy, yeah, shame.

But you know what?

We should go to that

new blues bar on Sullivan.

- Night Shade.

- Yes.

- That's actually

where I'm playing.

- Great.

We can come watch you play.

- Great.

- Super.

Well, I will see you

two ladies tonight then.

- Phenomenal.

Does 9 work?

- 9's perfect.

Oh, Scarlett, before I forget,

can you do me a huge favor?

- Sure.

- Lucas's headshots,

I needed them, well, yesterday,

to be totally honest.

I'd owe you big time.

- He has a phone, right?

- Yeah, but it's actually

for this magazine editorial.

Everyone at opening

needs to be featured.

It's part of the deal

I have with my mom.

I don't think the quality

of the phone...

- Do not worry about it.

I, I would love to.

- Oh, really? Oh, thank you.

I don't want anything

stopping me from hiring him,

if you know what I mean.

- I understand.

- He's just so pretty.

- Yeah, no. I was with you.

- I take it you are not

the new face of the

vegan dog food revolution, then?

- It was awful, Scar.

They asked me to explore

the room as a dog.

- What?

- I know.

I was only in there

like 10 minutes.

I definitely didn't get it.

- I'm sorry, Lis.

Bone-Free Doggy Dinners just

won't be the same without you.

- I know.

- But hey,

would you have honestly

looked back at this commercial

and thought, yeah,

that was my best work?

- Well,

I guess it would have depended

on what breed I was doing.

- Makes sense.

- My yappy Chihuahua

was definitely a showstopper.

And the buyout was $10,000.

- $10,000?

For $10,000,

who cares if it was

your best work?

Who cares if it was

even good work?

- How was your meeting?

- Oh, it was fine.

I mean, the place is great.

New boss is nice.

I'm pretty sure

she has a massive crush

on the new pianist,

who, by the way, is the one

you were telling me about

from the bar.

- Well, I don't blame her.

He's a charmer, right?

- No, he was rude and obsessed

with some kind of

elevator etiquette.

As if that exists.

- Yeah, you've lost me now.

- And I'm trying to get drinks

with Jenny and her

hotshot mom tonight,

but he is going to be there

and probably completely

mess up my chances.

- Chances at what?

- At convincing Joan

to hire me full time.

- Of course.

- Her own personal photographer.

I mean, imagine it.

- And how exactly

is that going to work?

- Oh, simple.

It's just like dating.

The same rules apply.

- First things first,

make an entrance.

If everyone else in that bar

is interested in you,

they will be too.

Use their names

as often as you can.

It makes people feel like

you're invested in them.

And if you keep

saying their name,

they'll only be thinking

about yours.

Buy them drinks,

they'll feel like they owe you.

Tell a genuinely funny anecdote.

I'm not talking

boring bar banter.

You're going for

snort your drink

out your nose funny.

Good. You've broken the barrier.

Then you can pull out

the big guns.

Eye contact signals availability

Keep it firm,

but not aggressive.

Friendly touching.

The boundaries change

when it's professional.

So keep it brief, light,

and in the safe zone.

The real test of whether

all this has paid off

is in the feet and the handbag.

You want her feet

pointing towards yours.

Means that she is

not going anywhere.

And the handbag?

Women use their handbags

like little shields.

And if she holds hers

down to her side,

I'm in.

- Well, I must say,

you're a very impressive

young woman.

Jenny has shown me

your portfolio,

and you've got a great eye.

- Thank you, Joan.

- I think we should discuss you

doing some work for me next.

I'll give you a call.

- Really? That would be amazing.

I'd be so honored.

- Now, I'm going to leave

you girls to it.

Enjoy the rest of your night.

- House cocktail please.

- Funny, I thought you'd be

one of those people

with a very specific drink.

- Well, I wouldn't knock it.

Might help you pick up

the pace a bit.

- Well clearly you haven't

listened to jazz before.

- Oh, sure,

if I wanted to

fall asleep quicker.

Well,

this is technically a blues bar,

- Gershwin's okay.

- So mainstream.

- Oh, darn it.

- What?

- Would you stop - stop looking.

Stop.

- Oh, at what?

The brunette over there

by the entrance

who's going to look this way

any second now.

- Would you stop?

She's my ex, okay?

It did not end on good terms.

- Yeah, no, I can clearly see th

And she is hanging off the arm

of an absolute knockout.

And you're cowering behind

a silk blend, by the way.

- I'm not cowering.

I just don't wanna have to

deal with that right now.

- Well, I really hate

to be the one

to break this to you -

- Oh, do you?

- But she's coming over.

- Hi. Yes, it's me.

Oh God why did it have to be me?

- Wow. Wow.

A lot of baggage there.

- Look, look,

I can't believe I'm about

to ask you this,

but would you consider

pretending to be my date

for the next 2 minutes

of your life - tops?

- I'm going to need

some more details.

- What? Why?

- Because I want to make sure

that I'm defending

the injured party in all of this

For all I know,

you could be the awful one.

- I wasn't.

- Oh, see, now that's what

the awful one would say.

You better hurry.

- Okay, okay.

You see that rippling knockout

over there?

- Absolutely.

I haven't taken my eyes

off of him.

- Well, there was some overlap

between the two of us

that she didn't tell me about

for, you know, well long enough

for it to really hurt my feeling

And by the time I finally

figured out what was going on

and confronted her about it,

she told me she

never really loved me.

Completely broke my heart.

And my PlayStation.

- Ooh. Harsh.

How did she break it?

- She threw it against the wall.

- Classic technique.

- She almost hit her cat.

- Okay, see,

now that's why you always

survey the crash zone first.

- Sarah.

- Lucas. You look great.

- It's the new PlayStation.

Scarlett, Lucas's girlfriend.

- Cute. How'd you two meet?

- Work...through work.

- Oh, so you're a

struggling musician, too?

- No, I'm an urban

and city photographer.

- Look at you two.

How is this the first

I'm hearing of this Lucie?

- Oh, well, Lucie and I

have been keeping it

kind of quiet.

But we've been together

for how long now?

- Four months.

- Four month anniversary

tonight, actually.

Oh, is that your boyfriend

over there?

- Yeah, we're much more casual,

you know, modern.

We like to see

where the flow takes us.

- Wow. You know,

I really admire that in people.

I feel like they can

have their cake and eat it, too.

But good for you.

Lovely to meet you.

- Hey, that was pretty

I just want to say thank you.

- You're welcome.

- Yeah,

that's what I was going to say.

Okay. Yeah. Right.

Cool.

Yep.

- I think this needs more time.

Do you have to go to work?

Can't you just

cough over a few drinks

and just ask

for the afternoon off?

- No, because unlike you,

my boss doesn't think

I'm irreplaceable.

- Aw, that must suck.

- Yeah, it does.

Come on, back to it.

- Fine.

Sandra, I can't believe it.

David's left me again.

- What?

That's like the fifth time.

Something's gotta change.

- It already has,

with Smartmeal,

the world's leading recipe box.

Getting your life back on track

- one meal at a time.

- Is that Jenny? Jenny!

Harassing the general public?

What are you doing?

- I just had the worst first dat

I've ever had.

Actually, the worst first date

anyone has ever had.

- Well, I don't think

that's true.

- The guy was more interested

in the waitress

the whole time we were there.

Actually got her number

right in front of me.

And then he invited her

onto his boat later.

There was no mention of a boat

when he asked me out.

Not even a mention of any boat.

No "Oh, hey, by the way,

I have a boat."

Do you like sushi?

Nothing.

- Well, at least he had a boat.

I once went out with a guy

who had no shoes.

He didn't believe in them.

- Who doesn't believe in shoes?

- Well,

at least he didn't ask out

another woman

right under your nose.

I think that justifies me

drowning my sorrows

at 2:30 on a Thursday.

- With a popsicle.

- The thing is,

I've never really dated before.

I was with my ex for 15 years.

We started dating in college

and broke up

three months ago now.

It was the right thing to do,

I mean.

He was a horrible person.

I'm pathetic, aren't I?

- No.

- I'll be straight

with you, Jen.

Your date story there,

it did make me sad.

And with all that

new information

you just gave me

about your non existent

dating history is even worse.

Terrible, in fact.

And I'm guessing

you haven't developed

your dating side

since your last relationship?

But you know what?

All of this is about to change.

So I'm going to need you

to set that down.

Hand it over.

Get ready to take notes.

Oh, mental notes.

I just need you to focus,

because this advice

is usually not free.

Do you want my help, Jenny?

Of course you do.

Why do I want to help you?

I don't know, because I'm bored.

Because I need a new project.

Because Lisa is a lost cause.

- Hey!

- He smells like dust.

But you,

you've got potential.

And I'm gonna make something

out of you.

Any questions?

- Can I do a regular oat latte,

please?

Thank you.

- Hi.

- Do you want to?

- No, it's okay.

I'll get my own.

Actually,

I needed to talk to you.

Jenny asked me

to do your headshots.

- Oh well you don't have to do

- Because she needs them ASAP.

- Yeah, but I can always

just do them

- And she doesn't want you

to take terrible ones

on your phone.

- They wouldn't be terrible.

They'd be pretty

- Tomorrow sounds good to you?

- I'll be there.

- See you then.

- Can't wait.

Make that two

regular oat lattes please?

- The library is two doors down,

you know.

- Me? Oh, the library.

Yeah, the library. I know.

I go there all the time.

But they close at 5:00PM.

What about all the folks

who want to enjoy a cocktail

and a good book

on a Friday night?

- The forgotten few.

- I'm Will.

- Jenny.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Hi!

- We've been waiting for you.

- I was at the bar.

I just met the most amazing guy.

He was reading Moby Dick.

- Who goes to a bar to read?

- What? I like that about him.

People only go to bars to read

if they have no one to talk to

or they're trying to seem

more interesting

than they actually are.

- Since when?

- Look, I like a good book

as much as the next person,

but going to a bar to read

is like eating soup

in a movie theater.

You just don't do it.

- I mean,

as a very interesting person,

I'm going to have to go

with Scar on this one.

It's just not the vibe.

And the lighting is all wrong.

- Well, I liked him.

Maybe he's just shy and still

putting himself out there.

I don't know.

I felt something there

and thought I could see things

maybe going somewhere.

- Excuse me?

- Not for a relationship

or anything.

- Good, because I have known

this sidewalk longer.

- But maybe a relationship

down the line.

- You have got to be kidding me.

Like in Serendipity when Kate

Beckinsale meets John Cusack

just out buying gloves

and then years later,

fate brings them back together

on the ice rink, remember?

- This is not Serendipity

and I need you to know that.

- I know, but...

Look,

if it's faith that you're after,

let's just put it to the test.

- That's not what I had in mind.

- I know,

but it's too early for you to

get back into a relationship.

- Can I not be the judge of that

- Clearly not.

And I need you to make

a drastic change

because you are attracting

the wrong men.

- Couldn't have just

held on to that.

You had to be dramatic.

- Not again.

A cacao ceremony

is nothing to sneer about.

- All I want to know is,

do you really need the gong?

- The healing vibration

of the gong gives us

a more grounded practice.

- What does that even mean?

- Why don't you just try it?

Open your heart and offer it

up to the universe.

Tell it what you're grateful for

I'd be grateful

for sleeping in

past 6:00AM.

- And your intention for the day

- I intend to destroy that gong.

I don't suppose

you picked up anything else

off the grocery list?

- No,

but I did use your credit cards.

- Oh, good.

So I'm the one

funding this breakdown.

- And that's what

I'm grateful for.

- I'm meant to be making my boss

more visually acceptable

to the outside world today.

You couldn't have

picked up a yogurt?

- Not visually acceptable,

helping her find

her authentic self.

Big difference.

And be nice to her today, okay?

She's not like you.

She's shy, sensitive.

She has feelings.

I have feelings.

- Yes, but when you hide

behind these little jokes and

snarky comments all the time,

sometimes even you forget that.

I get why you do it.

I'm just saying go easy on her.

That's all.

- I can't make any promises,

but I will try.

Enjoy your little

chocolate party.

- It's a cacao ceremony.

- It's the same thing.

- Hand it over.

- What?

- You know what. Hand it over.

- What, my?

- Give it to me now.

Three, two...

- All right. Here.

- You'll thank me later.

Best date spot in town,

Capricio's, by the way.

Never fails.

It's time to shop.

[upbeat funk music]

- Not half bad!

- Not half bad?

I'm a knockout!

[soft wind chimes]

- Don't mind the

spiritual healer.

- Welcome to my sound bath.

Let the waves of sound

wash over you

and cleanse your soul

of its daily stresses.

- You know,

some level of stress

is actually quite good for you.

- You know,

being open minded and allowing

new people into your life

to change it for the better

can be good for you too Scarlett

You'll learn that someday.

- Take a seat over there,

and I'm just gonna get set up.

- Okay.

[soft bell tones]

[light jazz music]

- Good choice.

- It was between this and

Lisa's teen pop album.

I went with the safe option.

- Wise.

- Besides, I need you to relax

because you clearly don't like

having your photo taken.

- Well, no,

especially by a woman who,

frankly, terrifies me.

And now I'm all alone

in her lair.

- Look at the camera. Not me.

Why do I terrify you?

- Well, for one thing,

you're just so mean.

- And that's terrifying?

- Yeah, for most people it is.

Yes. But not you, apparently.

What are you afraid of?

Besides joy

and the sound of laughter?

- Chipped nails.

- Chipped nails?

- Yeah,

chipped nails, wrinkled clothes,

everything that doesn't

make you look perfect.

- And that's it?

- What do you want me to say?

Rats on the subway?

No, it's good to know.

It's weird,

but it's good to know.

- So tell me,

when did you know

you wanted to be a pianist?

- In college.

I majored in history,

but I didn't really like it.

So I spent most of my time

in music school

and I never really left.

What about you?

When did you decide that

photography was your thing?

- When my dad walked out.

Do you remember those

wind up, disposable cameras

we were all obsessed with

when we were, like, seven?

- Yeah,

Well,

I had one of those.

And after that,

it just became easier

to see the world

through this tiny little lens

than to face it head on,

I guess.

Probably not the therapist

approved way of handling it,

but, hey.

And photographing

buildings and cities

just made sense because

they have a kind of

hidden baggage, too, I guess.

And yeah,

they also can't say no to you

taking their picture,

which helped a lot.

Also, I don't like people, so...

- Makes sense.

- You know what?

Let's go to the roof.

- To the roof?

- Yeah.

- Okay. Yeah. All right. Coming

- So, tell me.

You got to give me something,

sweetheart.

You know your mother loves

all those little details.

- All those little details.

- Shut up.

- What did you say, honey?

I didn't hear you.

- Yeah, go ahead,

say that again, Willie.

- Oh, is that Lucas?

- Yeah, mom, it's Lucas.

- Hello, Lucas dear.

- Hello, mom, how are you?

- It's such a shame that

Lucas has to leave right now.

Yeah, you just said that,

didn't you? You have to go.

You're running late.

- Okay. All right.

- Bye, Lucas dear.

- Bye bye.

- Okay.

Mom,

I don't know what else to say.

I gave her my number and she

hasn't called me yet, I guess.

I don't know.

Call me crazy.

I just think that's a no.

- And that's it?

You're just going to give up,

right? Oh, come on.

There could be

all kinds of reasons

why she hasn't called you.

Maybe she lost your number.

And you know what?

She is searching for it

right this very instant.

Maybe she,

maybe she lost her cell phone.

Or oh,

maybe she accidentally brought

it into the shower with her.

Your father did that.

Oh, honey,

maybe there was a disaster

at work and it is just

taking up all her time.

- I get it. I get it, mom.

I do. I really do.

Okay? Thank you.

- Just

don't rule her out yet, okay?

- Okay.

Thanks, mom. I really do.

I got to go right now.

- Bye bye, honey. I love you.

- Bye. Love you, too.

- Is somebody having

lady troubles?

- Oh, come on. Okay, fine.

Jump aboard the

dating advice train.

Next stop,

my life is in shambles.

- You're not going to like this,

but mom is totally right.

- Oh, come on.

- I know.

Now there could be

a thousand reasons

why she hasn't called you back,

including the fact

that she has a life.

- Okay.

- It's only been two days.

- You're right.

- Give her a chance.

And then if you still haven't

heard anything from her,

you got to find a way

to see her in person,

to see where you stand.

- Thank you for that.

- You're welcome.

- Okay.

- Yeah?

- Beautiful!

Swish!

- That's what I'm talking about.

You're gorgeous.

- Get out of here.

- Bye.

[soft music]

- I brought coffee.

I know how much you like

drinking lattes I paid for so.

- I do indeed.

Come sit.

You think that one's bad?

Take a look at this.

- Oh, my God. It's awful.

Is that really what I look like?

It's like I'm in physical pain.

- They get better.

See?

- Oh, yeah.

I actually look pleased

to be alive in that one.

Can I get a copy of that one?

- Sure.

I've actually starred the

six best ones, in my opinion.

Here.

That's the nicest one I think,

in terms of lighting

and everything.

They're all going to be

on the hard drive, though.

- Okay.

No, it's amazing. Thank you.

So much. I mean,

considering what you

were working with.

- You're not that bad.

- Oh, dang it.

I think I left the hard drive

at my apartment.

When do you need them by?

- Today. Really. Sorry.

- Okay. Come on then. Yeah.

- Okay.

[soft music]

- Thanks again for all these.

- Don't mention it.

- Hey, guys.

- Hi, Lisa. Bye, Lisa.

- Oh, no, stay for dinner, Lucas

It's takeout night,

so you're safe from our cooking.

- Every night is takeout night.

- Sure. Yeah, I'll stay.

But it's on me as a thank you.

- Oh, yay!

- We have Scarlett

to thank for that.

- You think she would

design this place?

- I don't know.

Maybe it's a collaboration.

- I'll get it.

- I'm gonna go help her out.

- Oh.

- Oh, no.

Behind the pillow. Quick.

- Okay. All right.

- Don't say anything.

- No, we're good.

Act normal.

Oh, hey, didn't see you there.

[upbeat music]

[seagulls]

- Do you remember

when we were little

and Millie Riley

would push your head

into the sandbox?

- Yeah,

thank you for reminding me of

that wonderful childhood memory.

- You're welcome.

But she did that because

she actually liked you.

- Yeah, she did.

- Do people still do

that as adults?

- Did somebody push your head

in the sandbox?

- No!

I just mean, like,

do people still pretend

like they're mean

when in actuality they like you?

- Well, that depends.

- On what?

- On if they're a psychopath.

- Right.

- Normal, functioning people

in society don't go around

being horrible to the people

they want to date.

Because unlike preschool,

you could just leave.

You don't have to stick around.

Why? Who is it?

- Somebody from work.

- Ok.

- And she's being mean to you?

- Well, yeah,

she's mean to everybody

aside from her boss,

who she kind of like,

wants me to ask out on a date.

But the other night

she was different.

- Do you you like her?

- No!

I just haven't

figured it out yet.

- Generally speaking,

I don't think girls

usually tell boys they like

to go on dates

with other people,

so.

- Yeah, you're right.

[light jazz music]

- So, how should I do it?

I mean,

I don't even know

the kind of dates he likes.

- Hence the date.

- Yeah, I know,

but I don't know if he's like a

dinner and a movie kind of guy

or a late night cocktail

kind of guy.

I mean, he does work in bars.

- No,

Lucas is definitely

the low key kind of guy.

You know,

he'd rather joke around

than go to a fancy dinner

at a stuck up restaurant,

despite the kinds of places

that he works at.

- Like the events I plan?

- Yeah, like the events you plan

But, you know, he's old school.

And not in a stuffy way,

just in the he puts uniqueness

in horror novelty.

I think the key to him

is just keeping it laid back,

old school.

- You got all that

from him already?

- Yeah, I guess so.

- You didn't need

to come meet me.

I would have seen you at home.

- I had to get plant food

for the little guys.

- I hope you know

what you're doing.

- Yep. Apparently,

they need more than just water.

Can you believe it?

- Scarlett.

- What?

- Come on.

- What do you want me to say?

- That you should be

asking Lucas out, not Jenny.

- I don't do relationships.

and you know that.

So why should I stop Jenny,

my boss, remember,

from asking Lucas out,

who would have already

asked me out by now

if he actually liked me.

- Listen,

I know you're used to guys

practically fainting

at the sight of you.

I mean,

I got a little lightheaded

when I first met you myself.

- Lis, we were eight.

- Exactly.

But my point is,

maybe you like Lucas

because he's different.

He clearly likes you.

- I don't.

He doesn't.

This is all just a flutter.

It'll pass.

Besides,

I need the work

with Jenny and Joan,

so I don't want anything

to mess that up.

So if Jenny wants to ask him out

if Joan wants to ask him out,

if Joan's dog Pepe

wants to ask him out,

I will be the first one

to hand Lucas over, ok?

You know what?

I'm gonna get some fresh air.

- That's what plants are for.

Hey, I know where you live.

[light jazz music]

- Jenny showed me the photos

you took of Lucas, by the way.

He's a good looking,

young man, isn't he?

- Yeah, I mean, I've seen worse.

- I gave Jen a little nudge

in his direction the other night

She's been so shaken

by the breakup.

And he seems like a nice boy.

What do you think?

- She did mention that, actually

- Oh, good.

I know I shouldn't ask this,

but she can be a bit shy.

So if you can,

I don't know,

work some magic

behind the scenes.

- I am waving my wand

as we speak.

[upbeat jazz music]

- Oh, those champagne glasses,

I'm just gonna check the label.

- No, you are not.

Tonight,

you are not an event planner.

You are just Jenny.

So no harassing other women

for crockery recommendations

because we're here

to have a good time.

Besides,

I like spending time with you.

And you are gonna

have fun tonight.

It's getting you back

on the scene.

- Wow.

And you're a really nice person.

I actually like

spending time with you.

- These compliments are almost

making me uncomfortable.

- I'm just saying

that there are certain things

that we need to

focus our energy on.

Tonight, you are not

going to be yourself.

Instead,

you are going to be

Jenny's cool older sister

who likes listening to vinyls

and staying out past 10:00PM

on the weeknights.

And when you start

chatting up with guys,

don't try so hard

because short answers

are mysterious,

but not in the way

that you say yes or no

because those people

are the worst.

What else?

Oh, don't actually laugh

at their jokes

unless they're funny,

which they usually aren't.

And, oh, always, always, always

excuse yourself early, ok?

Off you go.

- So, basically just be

a terrible person.

- A terribly awesome person.

- Not bad.

- Just all this, it's not me.

I'm not a twelve numbers

on a napkin kind of girl.

And there's nothing

wrong with that.

- I'm a big fan of it,

personally.

- I know I want something

more than that.

I mean, does all this

really make you feel good?

- Confidence is the

most powerful weapon

a woman can have.

And you have come so far.

Do not give up now.

- I'm not.

Because I'm going to get

one more number tonight.

- Whose?

- Lucas's.

- Well,

you already have his number.

He works for you, remember?

- No, I mean

I'm going to ask him out.

I'm going to do it tonight.

- Tonight? Are you sure?

- No.

God, this is stupid, right?

I mean, there's no way

he'd ever like me.

I mean, look at him

and then look at me.

- Hey, of course he would.

And I know that I don't

normally say nice things,

but he would be so lucky

to have you.

So I think if you like him,

you should go for it

and watch him say yes.

- Now I'm really concerned

about you.

Are you feeling okay?

- And what kind of

evil, wicked schemes

are we planning tonight?

- Helping friends find love,

making dreams come true.

You know, the usual.

- Lucas,

do you want to go out later?

Like on a date?

- Oh, sure, yeah.

I get off at ten.

- See you at ten.

- Perfect. All right.

See you there.

- It worked.

That was amazing.

I didn't have to do too much.

He said okay.

[upbeat music]

- I'm just talking to

guy after guy

about nothing, really.

I just realized

I want something

more meaningful.

So I just went for it.

- Good for you. If only

all our thought processes

made such cold, hard sense.

I just want to be with someone

I like again, you know?

Someone I can see a future with.

Who I can fall in love with.

- Ryan Reynolds is the only man

I've ever truly loved.

Oh, if he could just meet me,

I know we'd be happy together.

- I'm not sure his wife

would agree with that.

- She'd soon forget about him.

- Oh, well,

that would be something.

You'd have to tell me

your secrets sometime, Lisa.

- No secrets.

Just my magnetic personality.

- But Scarlett, seriously,

haven't you ever thought about

pursuing anything

with any of the guys

you've been with?

- No, never.

- Well, then when was your

last serious relationship?

- I've never had one

last more than a few weeks.

I'm on and off.

- You've never been in a

long term relationship?

- Now why does that sound like

a very bad person's

done a very bad thing?

- Oh, no, I'm sorry.

I'm just surprised.

- Ryan values

a long term relationship.

That's why he's a keeper.

- Hate to love

and leave you both,

but I've got to run.

I've got big things

to do before the launch.

- Who's your celebrity crush?

[upbeat music]

- Hey, Lucas.

- Hey, hey.

Do you remember how you told me

to go see that girl in person?

- Yeah.

- Well, I've got a plan.

- Go get her champ.

[upbeat music]

- The whole of New York City

and here you are.

- I've really gotta stop

telling people about this place.

But what can I say?

It is the best in town.

- Yeah, Jenny's been going on

about this place,

so we figured we should try it.

- Oh, my gosh.

You've got a date tonight?

- Yeah, we figured we'd

celebrate the press launch.

You're welcome to join us

if you like.

- No, I mean, it's just,

it's your date.

You don't want me

in a third wheel.

- Hi, Scarlet.

I can see why

you love this place so much.

- Get the steak. Trust me.

- We should try

a double date here sometime.

That'd be fun.

- Yes, I'd love that.

- No, I don't think so.

But you guys have fun.

[upbeat music]

- Hey.

Everything okay?

- Jenny and Lucas

are on another date.

- I told you.

- I know.

What do I do?

- Well, you're gonna have to

figure it out fast.

- How?

- Actually spend some time

with them.

[upbeat music]

- Why did I agree to this again?

I don't do double dates.

- But that's what happens

when you have

a couple of friends.

- Oh, please.

You are not my friend.

- But I must admit,

I'm surprised you even agreed

to a blind date.

- I didn't.

I lost a bet with Lisa

over who could eat the most peas

with chopsticks.

That girl's got

freakishly nimble fingers.

- Or maybe deep down,

what you really want

is to settle down

with a nice young man.

- No, I don't have a deep down.

And where is Jenny?

- It's perfect.

He is a male you.

- Look away

or he'll know we're here.

- Sorry,

I hate to break it to you, but

- Wow!

Not many women look like

their Instagram photo.

But you and Croatia 2004.

- You must be Nate.

An absolute

pleasure to meet you.

[upbeat music]

- Will!

What are you doing here?

- Just, you know,

- Hi!

- This is nuts, cause

my editor was at your

PR launch event

and she wants me

to write a feature about it,

and you, obviously.

If that's okay.

- Oh, my God!

Absolutely!

That'd be amazing

publicity for us.

- Yeah,

that's what I was thinking.

- Take a seat.

- Oh, sure.

I would have called

and planned ahead to meet you,

but well,

I didn't have your number.

- Yeah, no, that's no problem.

I kind of lost yours.

Well, it got thrown away.

Not by me.

Anyway, it was a whole thing.

All I know is that

there's a four in it.

- Yeah, there is a four in it.

You're a 10th of the way there.

But listen,

I can get your contact details

and we can plan this

for a different time

if this is no good.

No. We're both here now.

Let's do it!

[cellphone vibrates]

- Jenny just messaged.

She can't make it.

- Whatever happens at this table

stays at this table.

- Ok, if you'll excuse me.

- Actually,

I have to go to the bathroom.

You can't leave me here with him

- I have been in the presence

of that man for a whole

5 minutes, 40 seconds longer

than I deserve to be.

- I don't get it.

I work the same hours as you

and I don't get any tips.

- I'm coming with you.

[bell rings]

- Good job. Good job.

Good game.

- Sorry.

See, this is why you don't

take me here.

I told you.

- There's a lot of people

that are watching.

- Can I interest anyone

in a hotdog?

On me. Yep.

- Swing a foot way around

Then bring it back

That's what I call

call ballin' the jack

- All right,

so let's just get this clear

once and for all.

So even when you are

bad at something,

you are the absolute worst at it

Is that it?

- Yeah, seems like that.

What about you?

- What about me?

I feel like I don't really know

anything about you.

- Well, that's a good thing.

And also not true.

We know that my taste in music

is much better than yours.

- Okay.

But really, I mean,

where are you from?

What is your favorite

New York moment?

Oh, no, I have a good one.

What is your deepest,

darkest secret?

- Oh, my deepest,

darkest secret?

- Yeah.

Or something deep.

- I got deeper to trust issues.

- Don't we all?

- My family is everything to me.

- Very good.

- I don't really have any friend

because my entire life

I've dedicated to my family.

- That's kind of sad.

- Hey!

Remind me again

why I'm telling somebody

with the emotional range

of a teaspoon all this?

- Oh, hey, now that's rude.

- Well you hurt me first.

- Well you hurt me second.

- We're doing this right now.

- And my last question is,

can I give you my number again?

- Oh, I'm kind of

seeing someone right now.

- Oh, yeah, no,

Obviously, look at you.

Obviously you're seeing someone.

That's fine.

That's totally fine.

It's getting hot in here.

- I'm really sorry.

- Don't apologize.

You don't have to do that.

It's okay. Obviously.

It's totally fine.

I think I got everything

I need for the interview.

Actually, do you have any photos

that I could use for it?

- My photographer, Scarlett,

has taken some amazing photos.

I'll give you her details.

- I have to go to the bathroom,

but I'll be right back.

- Okay.

What are you looking at?

[cellphone vibrates]

[light piano music]

- All right, what do we think?

Should we go

on the Ferris wheel?

- Actually,

I think I'm gonna head home.

Wanna make sure

Jenny gets home safe.

- Oh, sure.

- But, yeah,

you could have the big bear.

I don't think it'll fit

in my apartment so

- Okay, yeah.

- Bye.

- See you.

I had fun tonight.

- And then he shoved this

massive bear in my face and left

- Well,

something must have happened.

- So then I saw a text

from Joan thanking me

for helping Jenny get the guy.

- No.

- Which, in my defense,

he did already know about.

I just think that he thought

it was more of a joke

than a genuine plan.

- If it were me, I'd be furious.

- Thanks. Yeah.

Really helpful.

- I mean,

to have this earth shattering

connection with someone

only to find out it was some

covert love operation

between them

and their boss's mom?

I mean, it's all a bit much.

- It wasn't exactly like that.

I mean,

it's almost like a betrayal.

- All right.

- The deception,

the dishonesty.

I mean, that's hardly grounds

for a friendship,

let alone something else,

especially for someone

with deep rooted trust issues.

- Yup.

You really hammer

that point home now.

I think I just need to distance

myself as much as possible

from Lucas and Jenny,

starting tonight.

Things have gotten

too complicated

and I don't do complicated.

- Oh, imagine you

having to experience

a real human emotion.

- Exactly.

And you're not the first person

to tell me that this week.

So I think it'd be best

if I just sit back

and let all of these -

- natural feelings of love

and desire between you and Lucas

- all these things

just blow over.

That way no one gets hurt.

- That way they don't get hurt.

What about you?

- I'm fine.

[light jazz music]

- Oh, we won't be needing these.

It's just the two of us.

- Thank you.

- I invited Scarlett,

but my mom's prepping her

for some big shoot, apparently.

- Well, Joan comes first.

- What?

- Nothing.

Forget I said anything.

She's a bit work obsessed,

if you ask me.

- You wouldn't say that

if she were a guy.

- Oh, I would.

Oh, I would.

It's not her ambition

or it's not her aspirations

that are the issue here.

It's the way

she goes about doing it.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- I just don't think she cares

who she hurts on her way up.

That's all.

- Whatcha having?

- I'm having fish.

- I can't decide.

- Hey, I was thinking.

So my parents are going

to be in town tonight.

And I was thinking maybe

you want to meet them?

I've met your mom

however many times,

so I think it's only fair

that you met mine.

- I'd love to. Yeah!

- Okay.

- This is incredible.

- Ok, that's good.

[knocking at the door]

- Hi.

- You?!

This has everything on it,

but I'm going to need it back

when you're done

because it's the one

I'm giving Jenny.

- Sure. Thanks.

Ok, I got to get this in by six,

so I'll give it

right back to you

- K.

[knocking at the door]

- There's my boy.

Oh, hi, sweetie.

- How you doing?

- Look at you.

You are looking so well, my love

- Oh, thanks.

Hey, dad.

Grandma!

- Hi, dear.

Every time I see you,

you're taller.

- And Will,

you must introduce us

to this lovely young lady.

- No, this is Scarlett.

Scarlett's a photographer,

and she brought over photos

for an article I'm writing.

- Whatever you say, dear.

I would love for you to join us,

Scarlett.

- No, that's very kind of you.

- She has other plans.

- Yeah, work.

I have a work thing.

They're making you go back

to work now, at this hour?

- Yeah, afraid so.

My boss is this crazy

workaholic type.

[door opens]

- And that's my baby.

Look at you.

You are so, so handsome.

- You’re so beautiful.

- Oh, you’re a kidder.

- [softly] Oh no.

- Me next, me next!

- And you're taller too.

- I sense the pattern.

- What are you doing here?

- Well,

I was hoping that Scarlett

would join us for dinner.

- Why?

- Why?

Because your brother

wants her to stay, that's why.

- I really don't.

- Sorry about that.

Hello, everyone.

- Jenny,

Lucas is the guy you're dating?

- Wait, hold up.

You two know each other?

Wait, are you two?

- No!

Scarlett brought over photos

for the article

I'm writing about Jenny.

- Apparently,

Scarlett has to go back to work

tonight because her boss

is making her.

- What?

- Apparently her boss is

some kind of crazy workaholic.

- Actually, that is my boss.

- Hi.

- Oh, well, that is settled.

Lucas, introduce me

to this woman, please.

- How long have you been doing

a feature on Jenny?

- Hi, I'm Jenny.

- It's so nice to meet you.

- And you, Mrs. Sharp.

- How long have you been

working for her?

- Please, just call me Grace.

- For, like, two weeks.

- Hold up.

If you guys are brothers,

do you guys not,

like, communicate?

- And this is Martin.

Martin, say hello to Jenny.

- Hi.

- Hello, Jenny.

- And my mother Agatha.

- Hi, Agatha.

Nice to meet you.

- And you are not tall.

- No.

- Is anybody else, like,

really confused?

- Oh, no. If I'm doing this,

so are you.

- This is gonna be fun.

- Oh, boy.

- On the menu tonight is

Beef Bourguignon,

Dauphinoise potatoes,

and spring vegetables.

- Oh, delicious, sweetheart.

- Excellent.

- And how long till it's ready,

honey?

- More wine, anyone?

Yes.

Yes, please.

- Right.

- Just put it on the table.

- Thank you, sir.

- Beg pardon, Jenny.

There you go.

Okay. I'm sorry.

I'll just get you another one.

My Dauphinoise

didn't quite go as planned.

- Oh, would you mind

passing me the wine, Scarlet?

- Of course.

How rude of me.

I've been keeping it

all to myself.

- That's a surprise.

- What's that now?

- Oh, I just thought you didn't

even really like the wine.

Now you're trying to take

it all for yourself,

even though you have everything.

- Would you like the wine back,

dear?

- No, you go ahead.

- Why don't I just open up

another bottle?

Rose?

- This game has become

a bit of a family tradition.

- Okay. All right.

I assume everyone else

knows the rules?

- Yes.

- Yes.

- Ok.

I think we gotta split up

into three teams.

So, mom and dad,

you're a team.

Lucas, Jenny, you're a team.

And Scarlett and I

will also be a team.

- Yay.

- Yay ... ok?

- Ok!

- [sighs] Ok

- Nature.

Oh, this will take no time.

This is what Scarlett likes to

steal from everyone.

- Oh, wine.

No? That's not nature, is it?

Grapes?

- Come on, Lucas.

Gotta guess something.

- What is?

- Clock's ticking.

- What do people steal?

Hearts. Hearts. Hearts.

- You would say that,

wouldn't you?

- Time.

- The correct answer

was thunder.

She steals everyone's thunder.

- Right,

I think it's probably my turn.

- I actually think it's mine.

- Set the timer, Will.

Random.

- It's world.

Random it is.

- Don't worry, Will.

Let her cheat.

She can't help herself.

- This is what Jenny pleads

when in fact

she knows exactly

what she is doing.

Famous novel by Edith Wharton:

Age of...

- Innocence!

- Right.

Person.

This person thinks they're

so much of a heartthrob

they can train other people

in finding a date

when they've never been

in a relationship themselves.

- Also person.

This person should get off

their high horse,

because they've, in fact,

only been in one relationship

their whole life,

which, by the way,

sounded toxic as hell

and a complete waste

of an entire decade.

And even with all that

deep and meaningful

relationship experience,

they still can't go out

on a date without a guy

asking for the waitress instead.

- Scarlett, that's enough.

- At least I'm not in love

with the guy

my supposed friend is dating.

- She's the mean woman

from work.

- No, you'd rather just date

your boyfriend's big brother.

That's much better.

- You told me I couldn't

go after him.

- Wait, what?

- Wait, you're into my brother?

- I must admit,

I am totally confused.

Martin!

- You don't have to listen

to what I say.

You are a grown woman.

You can make your own decisions.

- Whoa, let me get this straight

You were driving me

away from Will,

falling for Lucas,

while at the same time

trying to set me and Lucas up?

-Okay,

people really need to stop

phrasing it like that.

- What is wrong with you?

What,

are you so afraid of

your own feelings,

you organize this

entire charade?

- Get it?

- Not entirely.

There were other

factors involved.

- Like what?

Like Joan.

- What?

- Joan and Scarlett

been trying to set us up

from the very beginning,

which only makes Scarlett happy

because she's been trying

to get close to your mother

since day one.

I thought you were kidding.

And then I saw the text.

- It's true. I admit it.

But things changed,

and I tried to distance myself

from you two, which was working,

before this guy

started introducing me

as his secret girlfriend

to the in-laws.

- You know what?

I can't even be

around you right now.

I'm gonna go.

- Wait, Jenny,

I really don't think

you should be the one to leave.

- Lucas.

- I think you should go.

- What did I miss?

[upbeat music]

- Lisa! Lisa!

- Good morning. Jeez,

what happened to you?

Why do you look so awful?

- Because an awful,

awful thing happened last night.

So, I'm gonna need you

to make some of your

French toast - STAT.

- Well,

you're gonna have to tell me

every little detail so that

I know how big a portion you get

- Well, let's see.

Will is Lucas's brother.

Oh! And I was there when Lucas,

Jenny, and his whole family,

including his elderly

grandmother,

showed up for a reunion.

- Oh, please tell me

you just left them to it.

- Oh, I wanted to,

but Will's mom made me stay

because she was convinced

that I was

Will's crush or something,

which, as we know, is Jenny.

- Jeez,

this just gets worse and worse.

- Long story short,

Lucas knows that I like him.

And Will and Jenny know

that they like each other.

They also know that I tried

to push them apart,

and it was all

to get close to Joan.

So they all hate me.

So,

how big of a portion

does that get me?

- Oh, this is bigger

than French toast.

- No.

- Oh, yes.

There's only one thing for it.

[gong and wind chimes]

We start today's session

by giving thanks.

And I want you to do

this properly.

- Thank you.

Thank you, Mama Cacao,

for giving us this sacred cacao.

- And now we thank the elements.

- You know what?

I just don't think...

- Scarlett Jones, sit back down.

Now, I didn't want to have

to do this,

but I'm going to give you some

tough love right now.

I know this hippie dippy stuff I

sn't for you,

but it means something to me.

So couldn't you for, like,

one second open your mind

to the possibility

that it may do you some good?

I know your dad leaving was hard

but he did a real number on you.

He turned you into this

guarded, paranoid, afraid of

any embarrassment at all person.

And that is just not the girl

I first shared my juice box with

So we have a lot

of soul searching to do

in the next 6 hours.

And we haven't even gotten

to the shamanic drumming yet.

[soft music]

[bell rings]

[light guitar music]

- Hi.

- Hi.

I brought this for you.

You forgot it

at our place last night.

- Thanks.

- I also brought you this.

Do not tell him I told you this,

but he's one of the good ones.

The best, actually.

So, if you do like him,

he won't let you down.

- Thank you.

- So, should I come by later,

or are you going to go with

another piano player

that you didn't get into

a weird love quadruple with?

- I was,

but they were all booked up,

so, guess you're gonna

have to do until then.

- Thank you.

- And, you know,

if you like Scarlet,

you should just go for it.

You two are a good fit.

I think I knew that all along.

And everything we said

about each other,

last night aside,

she's been a real,

good friend to me.

It wasn't all an act.

She's a pretty bad liar.

She wouldn't have quit

working for my mom

if she had just

been in it for herself.

- She quit?

- Yeah, last night.

- Did not see that coming.

Catch you later.

- See ya.

- Hey, see ya tonight.

- Yeah.

However,

the most astonishing thing

about this brand new venue

might just be its owner,

Jenny Clark.

As I sit opposite this

remarkable woman,

I can't help but notice

how she brightens the place

with her own lovely light.

A woman who knows

a little something

about burning the candle

at both ends,

which even the most cursory

glance at her resume will prove.

She possesses a disarming charm

without even knowing it

and effortlessly brings elegance

to the commonplace.

- Hello?

- Hi, Will. It's Jenny.

- Okay,

you've got to ask yourself

the important questions.

One, are you in love with Lucas?

Yes. That much is obvious.

Two, do you secretly

really care about Jenny

and are worried

that you might have ruined

your friendship forever?

Yes.

Are these two relationships

salvageable?

Yes.

Because they both truly

love you.

I can see it in their eyes.

Three,

did you really have to quit

working with Joan?

Meh. Probably not.

But who doesn't love

a grand gesture?

And we'll get you back in there.

I'll talk with her.

Four, how are we going

to do all this?

Well, I can tell you for certain

that your pride's

going to take a big hit,

but that's long overdue anyway.

Ooh, how about this?

[slow jazz music]

[upbeat music and tire screeches

- This is it. The moment

we've been waiting for.

And, hey,

even if things don't go

exactly as planned,

repeat after me,

I am not defined by a moment!

- I am not defined by a moment!

- Hey! Cabbie, step on it!

The gala beckons!

[tire screech]

Hurry, Scarlett, hurry.

We don't want to be too late.

Hit the button!

[elevator door rings]

[music ends] [light applause]

- Good evening, everyone.

- This isn't what we discussed.

- I know. I've got this.

- Hi, again.

- Wow.

It looks incredible here tonight

doesn't it?

You're probably wondering

who this random,

elevator emerging stranger is,

which is fair.

I'm Jenny's photographer.

And friend, I hope.

You see, the thing is,

I have made a real fool

of myself for the last,

well for my whole life,

if we're being

totally honest here.

And I've taken my friends

for granted.

I've used people

to get what I want,

relying on their willingness

to let people in,

which is something

that I can't do

for the life of me.

So if anyone

has any tips on that,

please see me after.

But I know that that's the only

reason I've only ever had

one true friend in my life.

So then,

when another one came along,

I think like I always do.

No,

I convinced myself that she was

going to let me down as well.

And that is my own issue

that I am dealing with

through chocolate and incense

and a spirit guide named Lisa.

But the problem is,

when you're always assuming that

people are going to let you down

you actually end up

letting them down instead.

And even though there were

definitely some fashion and

dating and general life lessons

she absolutely did need to hear,

I really do stand by that.

She actually didn't need my help

at all because she is

pretty great just as she is.

I mean,

look at what she can achieve

when you leave her to it.

And that's with me

throwing a jazz pianist at her,

especially one that has made me

feel something that

I have never, ever felt before.

And I have found

that you can reason

with yourself

as much as you'd like,

but sometimes it doesn't make

a blind bit of a difference,

even though that person

might be completely incompetent.

Really quite annoying, actually.

And who still uses a Filofax!

I mean, where do you even

buy those nowadays?

But the point is,

that despite that person

being so wrong for you

in so many ways,

and despite the fact

that falling in love with them

is terrifying,

the thought of watching

Ryan Reynolds movie marathons

every night is much scarier.

So, I know that I've

let you both down,

but would you maybe consider

not hating me?

Because I really, really

started liking you guys.

So, to my friend Jenny,

who I tried so hard to change

but who ended up

changing me instead.

And to Lucas, who really, really

needs to make a change

to an electronic calendar ASAP.

Cheers to Jenny and Lucas.

- To Jenny and Lucas!

- See that?

All down to the power of cacao.

[glasses clinking]

[crowd murmurs]

[soft piano music]

- So, I was wondering

if you, maybe,

want to go out on a date

sometime with me?

What are you doing

tomorrow night?

- Well, you have got

your big job with Joan tomorrow.

I spoke with her.

And she'd be happy

to have you back.

- Wow. Yeah, well,

she is pretty into me.

- Yeah, well,

that makes two of us.
