Hi! Uh... Charlotte
Paige, reporting for duty!

Welcome! Ms. Weir's
asked you to join

the writers in the
conference room.

Just straight through
the glass doors.

Okay, thank you.

[PEOPLE CHATTING]

[FROM HALLWAY] Okay, well,
let's circle back after lunch.

Uh, Tell me how the
phone call goes.

Thanks for taking
care of that...

Ah, Ms. Charlotte...

thank you for joining us.

The team is just finishing up,

um, your timing is perfect.

So, have a seat and I will
introduce you to everybody.

[PEOPLE CHATTING]

Alright people. Can I
have your attention again?

This morning, fantastic.
We accomplished a lot.

Thank you for all of
your contributions.

To wrap things up here,

I want to introduce
you to Charlotte Paige.

Charlotte is going
to be writing our new

featured article, 'Mr. Right'.

[APPLAUSE]

Very excited

So, as all of you know,

'Mr. Right' is an idea that

we've been tossing around
for quite a while now,

and it's finally time to
get it off the ground.

I mean, I just hope
that I can live up

to the... talent that's here.

I 'm sure you'll do just fine.

Every Monday morning
we meet, we brainstorm,

all the articles
for the coming week.

And...

Remember, part of the
joy of writing is...

[EVERYONE] The
journey of discovery.

[LAUGHS]

Of yourself and others.

So, take the journey!

[MS. WEIR] Yeah? Okay!
[CHARLOTTE] Alright!

You guys, thanks so
much for your time,

Um, I think we're
wrapped up for today.

'K?

Alright, so, I want
you to take some time

to settle in today,

meet your co-workers,

but don't doddle too much.

I will expect to see
a final copy of your

first article by next Friday.

is WAY-right here,

so you and I are
gonna be good friends.

Yay! That was easy.

- Yeah. I'm Lila.
- Charlotte.

- So... "Mr. Right"?
- Mhm. Mr. Right.

- What is a Mr. Right, right? Right?
- And that is where I'm stumped.

Okay, so you, you write
about dating- la'amor

um, but it sounds
like you're single?

Oh yeah.

Well, I mean, maybe that's
not a bad thing, ya know?

Maybe you just need to immerse
yourself into your writing.

Like for me, I write better when
I'm out there living the thing,

so... Like Ms. Weir
said, 'take the journey'.

Or whatever it is she says,
I never pay attention.

- Yeah.
- Um, don't tell her that.

But yeah, if you're
writing about dating,

then maybe you should
just be dating a lot?

Yeah, that is a good idea.

See, I wouldn't even
know where to start here

to, like, meet guys.

Well, you have come
to the wrong place.

I can't even remember
the last time

I've been on a date!

But, maybe you could
try the dating apps?

- You might have more success than I did.
- Ooh, yeah.

I guess I can't avoid
them forever, right?

- No, mam, no.
- So... I gotta pull out all the stops.

Ooh, good attitude! I like that.

Okay, you'll have to help
me with that whole thing,

- because...
- Pfft, done!

I got you. I LOVE living
vicariously through people.

One whole night?

Can we try next week?

Good afternoon, Ms.

I hear you've taken
quite a tumble.

Yeah...

Rock climbing, yeah
that explains it.

You seem like you've
have better days,

taken quite the fall.

Yeah, I was wearing
a helmet though.

My arm is what really hurts.

It's a good thing your friend
brought you in when he did.

Yeah, only after he
spent an hour collecting

his equipment and
chatting with his 'bros'.

- Ah!
- But, hey,

at least he was first
aid certified, right?

I owe this-

to those skills.

Well, let's remove whatever

'this' is, cause it's
not doing anything,

and we'll check out your arm.

- Mmm - Yeah.

We don't have to amputate
it which is good-

maybe... we'll see.

[LAUGHS]

[OVERCOM]

[DR. BAILEY] Ms. Paige, what
are you still doing here?

Oh, I'm just
waiting for my ride.

I examined you
quite a while ago.

Yeah, well, I didn't
realize my phone

was in my pocket when I fell,

so it took a much
harder hit than my arm.

Well, still you
shouldn't be alone.

Those painkillers are no joke.

Oh, uh, no, my friends coming.

I texted him and they
responded, I think.

But I'll be fine.

Still I think I'll
wait here with you.

No, really, you don't
have to worry about me.

Oh it's no problem.

I was just on my way home.

It's no trouble.

Oh. Thanks.

So... rock climbing,
huh? Is that a hobby?

No, and definitely
will never be!

It was a first date. And,
coincidentally, a last.

It's memorable.

Yeah.

I mean it was fun to
try something new,

I guess, but maybe next
time not something so...

Like a trust fall,
with a stranger?

Yeah, from fifteen
feet in the air!

I think he just forgot
I was even there.

What a real... dud.

Yup.

Well, if you like
trying new things,

and certainly less risky,

maybe you'd be interested in

cooking dinner with
me at my place?

I don't mean to brag, but
I can make a mean taco!

Oh! Um...

You're not going to say
you're a professional

chef or something, right?

No, no, definitely not.

Um, I've just never been
asked out by my doctor before.

Oh, I didn't mean to make
you uncomfortable. I-

Do you think I could
eat tacos with one hand?

I think you have a pretty good
chance at doing that, yeah.

Alright, sounds nice.

Okay. Let me give you my number.

Mmm...

Second thought, could
I have your number?

Yeah, I'll put it in just
so you know it's real.

only a-buckle fracture?

But my whole side
is one giant bruise.

Oh- and I have a
mild concussion.

Geez! I-I mean did he
push you off the cliff?

Like what happened?

No, no... he was just careless.

Well, I'd say that's a little
bit more than just careless...

I should have known better.

Ugh... oh, and I decided
that vigorous sports

are not really my thing.

shy of six feet,

more complicated.

Hey, I don't make the rules
I just write about them.

So have you always
wanted to be a writer?

Nope. Uh...

when I was five I
wanted to be a princess.

Oh, there you go. That's
a luxurious career,

why didn't that one pan out?

Oh, probably, I think,

for my eleventh birthday
my grandma got me a journal

but I didn't really do
anything with it until,

I think it was...

my parents divorce.

I'm sorry...

but what led to the writing?

I think as a kid I just, I was

trying to find ways to
cope with everything and,

you know, whenever they'd
scream at each other I-

I just started writing.

So I pulled out the
old journal and...

at first I was writing
about my frustrations

and then eventually I
started writing about

other worlds to help
see mine more clearly.

That's awesome.

I'm sorry about your
parents, that's...

tough.
- Oh, it's okay.

I mean, me and my mom
actually got really close

because of it.

- Hm.
- You know, we kind of only

had each other for a long time.

Is dad still in the picture?

Do you talk to him, or- -
Oh, no. No, not for years.

There was a lot of bad blood
between him and my mom.

So...

yeah...

I'm sorry to hear that.

It's fine. What about you?

What about your family?

We were close growing up.

My brother and my parents and...

I love my dad.

I wanted to be just
like him, actually.

I ended up working at the exact
same bank that he worked at.

- Wow.
- Yeah.

- You in a three-piece suit.
- Mmm.

I don't see it.

I hated it so much!

I was so bad at it.

I uh, worked there
for five years.

And yeah, hated every
second of it, - Wow.

And then quit a year ago.

So what's next?

What's, what's the dream?

The dream?

It's a little cheesy, but
I'm kind of living it.

- Making coffee?
- Yeah, I'm doing what I want to-

okay, first of all hold
up. I heard that tone!

- No, no judgment!
- No, no! Look, coffee,

it's not just a drink,

exact same brew that

Yeah, Mr. Janitor.

He's my next victim!

Uh, I do have a date
lined up though.

- Yeah.
- Wow.

What you working on?

Oh, uh, doing, uh,
some paperwork stuff.

Really fun.

Nice. Sounds official.

- It is.
- What's it for?

Uh, just bookkeeping and
receipts for the shop.

So your boss has you working
the counter and the books?

- Yeah.
- Geez.

He's, uh, he's pretty demanding.

Oh, speaking of work and paper,

I was wondering if
you could help me

write my next article?

The, uh, the doctor one?

- I'd love to. Yeah.
- Yeah, okay! Cool.

- I-I'll grab you the coffee.
- Yes.

What can I get for you ladies?

Um, I'll have a chocolate
raspberry smoothie.

'K, smoothie.

I will try the...

cinnamon latte.

- You're shaking it up!
- Mhm.

Look at you go!

Question?

Uh, yeah, what's up?

You're single, right?

Uh, I am. Yes.

Are you looking
for a relationship?

That's a good
question. Um, yeah.

I think like most
people I'm always

kind of looking for someone,

I just haven't found

the right person yet.

Yeah, alright.

Ummm...

okay yeah, so uh

Mister-Mr. Perfectionist,
tell me about them.

Yes, Mr. Right would do
well to have a clean streak,

after all.

Cleanliness is
next to godliness,

but there is a fine line between

Mr. Perfect and
Mr. Perfectionist.

your purse down is more

important than being
welcoming, fun, or spontaneous.

these dates are real.

Well yeah,

I mean if you're going to write
about dating you got to date.

Right?

Yeah that's true.

I guess I just never
thought about how

it might affect the
guys I went out with.

You know it's kind of
inevitable, though, Char.

You know? When you are
writing for an audience

you're going to be
offending people. You know?

Like, I've been banned
from loads of restaurants.

- Really?
- Oh yeah!

But you know what,
I'm not mad about it

because their food
was absolute rubbish

so I'm really not
missing out on anything.

Besides, you know, you
write about the bad stuff

AND the good stuff.

I just never imagined
that one of these guys

would actually read
any of my articles.

Sheesh...

I mean,

okay, if you're
worried about it then

maybe instead of
dating lots of guys

maybe you just date one guy?

with Jimmy, at the museum.

We, like, totally hit it off
and had quite a bit in common.

Ugh, I would just feel bad
dating him under false pretenses.

No, not Jimmy, not
Jimmy-we like Liam!

No, not for me.

Sorry.

I can think of
one positive thing

that came out of your
parents relationship.

Oh yeah? What is that?

Sit down!

I don't know if I made
that obvious enough.

I know where that comes from
though, like, I know what you're-

I know what you're
talking about.

My ex, um,

I really loved her.

I really...

genuinely cared about her.

And...

found out she was uh
dating my best friend

the exact same time
she was dating me.

So...

yeah, that was my reaction.

It was hard. That
was really tough.

I was, um, bitter, I was
really bitter for a long time,

because that's not
something you just, like...

recover from.

You know?

It was really hard because

I didn't feel like I was just

losing someone that I loved,

you know, I was
losing my best friend.

Yeah.

Gosh Liam, I'm sorry.

Their loss.

Yeah.

Yeah, it sucked, but...

it was interesting,
because after the initial

kind of scar healed and, uh,

resentment kind of went away,

I started remembering
the good stuff, too.

You know, I started to
retain the positive things

from our relationship...

and not this person

I painted her to be in my head.

She was actually the one that...

kind of pushed me to
quit my job at the bank.

She knew how
miserable I was there.

She was all like,
'pursue your passions,

you got to pursue
your passions!'.

She was really big on that.

So...

if she hadn't done
that I wouldn't be

spending my days in coffee
shops doing what I love,

and...

I wouldn't have met you...

And gone on this incredibly
picturesque hike!

I know how to pick a spot.

- You do! You do!
- It's pretty good.

Good choice.

My dad always said
that real love was

liking who you were the most

around that other person.

So yeah, by his definition,

I absolutely believe in love.

We should probably get going.

Mm

[LIAM] Echanté.

[LIAM] Here we are!

- Wow!
- Yeah.

Fifteen minute hike and you
can't even see the city anymore.

That's cool, right?

- Yeah.
- It really is crazy to think that just beyond that mountain

all this nature is a city.

Right? With a
hundred-thousand dudes

who all want to date you so bad.

They want to contribute
to the article!

They're trying to
do the right thing.

- Lucky me!
- Lucky you.

Are you guys still close?

He uh-he passed away
a couple years ago.

Liam, I'm so sorry.

You're good. You didn't
know. You're fine.

Yeah... I do miss him.

He was everything that
I want to be as a man,

you know? He was
compassionate, he was kind,

loved his kids, you know?

His co-workers all liked
him, he was good at his job.

I think the thing that
kind of sticks with me

the most is...

how much he loved my mom.

begin to imagine

what you've been through.

of something good just
because something bad-

- might happen. You know, like-
- But, but, the chance of what?

For us just to, like,
spend all this time dating

just to find out we were
better off as friends?

Or, I don't know, until
one of us get's bored?

I, I think, I think you're
thinking ahead a little too much.

- Am I?
- Yeah! Yes!

What about your last girlfriend?

What about my parents?

You know, they just
got sick of each other.

What about your parents?

Your dad is gone and now
your mom is all alone.

I mean, how can you
guarantee something like that

won't happen to us?

I can't.

I can't, you're right.

I can't guarantee
that nothing...

bad will happen.

But, like, I don't think
anyone should completely

shut down on the idea of love

just because life also happens.

And for me the risk is worth it.

I've never needed a
romantic relationship.

And, frankly, I'm, I'm fine
with the way things are.

Is there something you
want to talk about?

that this article is
supposed to be about,

to push you away,

You're my best friend, too.

And I probably needed to
hear what you had to say

even though I didn't like it...

out the other night.

Stop! Oh my gosh, no
wait, this is perfect!

- No-no!
- Mr. Coffee!

- This is not going to happen.
- What?

- So stop.
- 'K, why not?

not work.

feelings for him!

- No, no!
- Oh no, this is perfect,

- because he has feelings for you too.
- No,

- he has from day
one - but I don't-

It's been so obvious.

I don't want him to have
feelings for me! Okay?

Because then I'd lose a
friend and a coffee shop,

and I'd have to
see him every day.

bad, terrible, terrible idea.

done being mad at me,

you're just afraid

of getting hurt.

okay. It's normal.

you're not going to get hurt.

But then you also miss out

you have two options:
