00:02:04 Hi, Charlotte Page, reporting for duty.
00:02:16 Welcome. Ms. DeVere has asked you to join the writers in the conference room.
00:02:19 Just straight through the glass doors.
00:02:20 Okay, thank you.
00:02:22 Okay, well, let's circle back after lunch.
00:02:28 Tell me how the phone call goes.
00:02:30 Thanks for taking care of that.
00:02:32 Ah, Ms. Charlotte. Thank you for joining us.
00:02:35 The team is just finishing up.
00:02:37 Your timing is perfect.
00:02:38 So, have a seat and I will introduce you to everybody.
00:02:41 Alright, people. You have your attention again.
00:02:45 This morning, fantastic. We accomplished a lot.
00:02:48 Thank you for all of your contributions.
00:02:51 To wrap things up here, I want to introduce you to Charlotte Page.
00:02:55 Charlotte is going to be writing our new featured article, "Mr. Right."
00:03:00 (applause)
00:03:02 Very excited.
00:03:03 So, as all of you know, "Mr. Right" is an idea that we've been tossing around for quite a while now.
00:03:07 And it's finally time to get it off the ground.
00:03:09 I mean, I just hope I can live up to the talent that's here.
00:03:13 I'm sure you'll do just fine.
00:03:15 Every Monday morning, we meet, we brainstorm all the articles for the coming week.
00:03:20 And, remember, part of the joy of writing is the journey of discovery.
00:03:28 Of yourself and others.
00:03:30 So, take the journey. Yeah? Okay.
00:03:33 You guys, thanks so much for your time.
00:03:35 I think we're wrapped up for today. Okay?
00:03:37 Alright.
00:03:38 Alright, so I want you to take some time to settle in today.
00:03:41 Meet your coworkers, but don't dawdle too much.
00:03:44 I will expect to see a final copy of your first article by next Friday.
00:03:50 Alright. Hey, I want to see that by two.
00:03:53 Alright.
00:03:54 You got it.
00:03:56 [doorbell rings]
00:03:59 [doorbell rings]
00:04:02 [indistinct chatter]
00:04:30 Hey.
00:04:31 Hey there yourself.
00:04:33 So, you're new.
00:04:35 I am.
00:04:36 Well, my spot is way right here, so you and I are going to be good friends.
00:04:41 That was easy.
00:04:42 Yeah.
00:04:43 I'm Lila.
00:04:44 Charlotte.
00:04:45 So, Mr. Right.
00:04:46 Mr. Right.
00:04:47 What is a Mr. Right?
00:04:49 And that is where I'm stumped.
00:04:51 Okay, so you write about dating.
00:04:54 L'amour.
00:04:55 Um, but it sounds like you're single.
00:04:57 Oh, yeah.
00:04:58 Well, I mean, maybe that's not a bad thing, you know?
00:05:00 Maybe you just need to immerse yourself into your writing.
00:05:03 Like, for me, I write better when I'm out there living the thing, so.
00:05:06 Like Miss Weir said, "Take the journey."
00:05:10 Or whatever it is she says. I never pay attention.
00:05:12 Yeah.
00:05:13 Um, don't tell her that.
00:05:14 But, yeah, if you're writing about dating, then maybe you should just be dating a lot.
00:05:17 Yeah, that is a good idea.
00:05:19 Yeah, I wouldn't even know where to start here to, like, meet guys.
00:05:24 Well, you have come to the wrong place.
00:05:27 I can't even remember the last time I've been on a date.
00:05:29 But maybe you could try the dating apps.
00:05:31 You might have more success than I did.
00:05:33 Yeah. I guess I can't avoid him forever, right?
00:05:35 No, ma'am.
00:05:36 So I've got to pull out all the stops.
00:05:39 Ooh, good attitude. I like that.
00:05:41 Okay, but you'll have to help me with that whole thing, because...
00:05:44 I got you. I love living vicariously through people.
00:05:47 Perfect.
00:05:48 Well, I think a lot better when I have caffeine running through my veins, so...
00:05:51 Do you want to come with me downstairs and grab a latte?
00:05:53 Yes.
00:05:54 Really cute coffee place.
00:05:55 Let's do it.
00:05:56 Cool.
00:05:57 BFFs.
00:05:58 Hey, how are you?
00:06:00 Hello, hello.
00:06:04 How was your weekend?
00:06:06 Oh, did you go out with that, uh, the same guy again?
00:06:09 He turned out to be a total jerk, so I dumped him on the side of the road.
00:06:12 Literally.
00:06:14 Nice.
00:06:15 What about you?
00:06:17 Um, I mean, you know, same... same old team.
00:06:20 I'm just... I'm just working.
00:06:22 Oh, come on.
00:06:24 There's only so much time you can spend at a coffee shop.
00:06:26 You have to get out and do something fun at least once a week.
00:06:28 I know, I know. You're right. I just...
00:06:30 I'm just so close, you know?
00:06:32 Yeah, but you have to promise me at least one night this week
00:06:36 you will take a night off from even thinking about coffee.
00:06:39 Oof.
00:06:40 Not even thinking?
00:06:41 No.
00:06:42 One whole night?
00:06:43 Can we try next week?
00:06:45 You're so weird.
00:06:46 Next month?
00:06:47 Oh, this is the best coffee in town.
00:06:50 Yeah, so dead serious.
00:06:51 This place treats its coffee like an art.
00:06:54 It's cute.
00:06:56 Yeah.
00:06:57 Good morning. What can I get for you today?
00:07:00 Hi, I will get the...
00:07:03 Lavender Macchiato.
00:07:04 Name?
00:07:05 Charlotte.
00:07:07 The usual for you, Lila?
00:07:08 You know it.
00:07:10 That'll be $3.75 for the Macchiato and $4.25 for you, Lila.
00:07:15 I got you.
00:07:16 Are you sure?
00:07:17 Yeah.
00:07:18 Oh, thanks, Char.
00:07:19 Thank you.
00:07:20 It'll be a few minutes.
00:07:22 You're the best, Sarah.
00:07:24 So, you're new in town, you write for the hottest romance site,
00:07:28 you have the coolest new friend,
00:07:30 and your job is to find the perfect man.
00:07:33 Ugh, yeah.
00:07:34 How does, like, the actual definition of living the dream?
00:07:37 Hmm, yeah.
00:07:38 If, uh, the perfect man existed.
00:07:41 Ugh.
00:07:42 Yeah.
00:07:44 Oh, no, I can grab this one.
00:07:49 Okay, uh, Fred's.
00:07:50 Got a coffee for Fred, there you go.
00:07:52 Lila.
00:07:53 You.
00:07:54 Hi, Liam.
00:07:55 Hello.
00:07:56 Good to see you.
00:07:57 And then one for Fred.
00:07:58 Uh, sir, I think I got--
00:07:59 Sorry, I got to--
00:08:00 No, I don't have time for this.
00:08:02 I've got a meeting to get to.
00:08:03 Did he just abscond with my coffee?
00:08:06 I have no idea what abscond means, but yeah, he's got a meeting to get to.
00:08:09 He finessed a free cup of coffee from you, sir.
00:08:11 Uh, Liam.
00:08:12 Liam.
00:08:13 Uh, what was it again, sorry?
00:08:14 Charlotte.
00:08:16 Oh, the drink, uh, lavender macchiato.
00:08:19 Got it, lavender macchiato.
00:08:21 And a double time, if you would.
00:08:22 I have important meetings and things.
00:08:25 So, are you new in the building?
00:08:27 I feel like I know all the business folk type people.
00:08:31 Yeah, it's just my first day, so I am far from being an important businessy person.
00:08:36 Oh, come on.
00:08:38 I'm sure you're doing great.
00:08:39 Everyone has a first day, right?
00:08:41 It's always tough.
00:08:42 One lavender macchiato.
00:08:44 It's actually one of my favorites, so good choice.
00:08:47 For Charlotte.
00:08:49 Not for him.
00:08:50 Thank you very much.
00:08:51 You're welcome.
00:08:52 I'm gonna go tend to my businessy things.
00:08:56 Go and do it.
00:08:57 Wow.
00:09:01 That's good.
00:09:02 Yeah, tell your friends.
00:09:04 Have a good one.
00:09:07 Great.
00:09:08 Well, that was cute.
00:09:12 Yeah, she was.
00:09:13 Okay, here.
00:09:18 So, this is the app.
00:09:19 It's a little cheesy, but I mean, it's kind of fun.
00:09:21 What's it called?
00:09:22 Blender.
00:09:23 Oh, gosh.
00:09:24 With a name like that, how can it not be?
00:09:26 I mean, you can always go old-fashioned and try to pick up a guy at the coffee shop.
00:09:29 What? That still happens to people?
00:09:31 You said Blender?
00:09:32 Mm-hmm.
00:09:33 B-L-U...
00:09:35 Oh, you should come to my house tonight and help me build, like, a killer profile.
00:09:39 Oh, my gosh.
00:09:40 I'm gonna invite my best friends.
00:09:41 I was gonna invite myself over anyways.
00:09:42 Perfect.
00:09:43 I'll order takeout.
00:09:44 Yeah.
00:09:45 Oh, I know all the good food spots in town.
00:09:46 Oh, my gosh.
00:09:47 Listen to this blunder line from Alex.
00:09:49 "Hey, I value my breath, so I'd appreciate it if you'd stop taking it away."
00:09:54 Oh.
00:09:55 Oh, my gosh.
00:09:56 There are so many better ways you could have written that.
00:09:58 He's got a point there.
00:09:59 You should really be more considerate.
00:10:00 Me?
00:10:01 Like, you could hand me the rest of the fried rice.
00:10:02 Oh, you want the fried rice.
00:10:03 I want the fried rice.
00:10:04 Okay, I'll give you the fried rice.
00:10:05 Gimme, gimme.
00:10:06 Thank you.
00:10:07 Ugh.
00:10:09 Oh, Jason says, "Hey, girl, I don't normally compliment girls that I match with, but I
00:10:16 gotta say, you've got great taste in men."
00:10:19 Oh, my gosh.
00:10:20 Where do they find this stuff?
00:10:22 Well, you know, you've gotta scrape through a whole lot of garbage on these apps.
00:10:26 Okay, yeah.
00:10:27 Alex, Eli, Jason.
00:10:30 Right.
00:10:31 Aren't any of these guys not cringeworthy?
00:10:34 Oh, wait, what about that guy?
00:10:36 He looks...
00:10:37 He looks normal.
00:10:38 He looks kinda normal.
00:10:40 Let's see.
00:10:42 Alright.
00:10:43 Well, let's immerse.
00:10:46 Let's immerse.
00:10:49 So at this point I'm thinking, why not drop out?
00:10:54 Why am I going into massive debt for a medical degree that my dad wants when I could be making
00:11:02 millions pro-gaming?
00:11:04 I mean, I'm not a pro yet, but I wouldn't have been a doctor yet either.
00:11:09 So it's just gonna take a little bit more time investing and...
00:11:13 Yeah.
00:11:14 So, I mean, if you're good at it and you can make money, why not?
00:11:17 Yeah.
00:11:18 Yeah, exactly.
00:11:19 Yeah.
00:11:20 So currently, stage one, you have a place where you can practice these video games?
00:11:25 Yeah, my mom's place.
00:11:27 Totally free.
00:11:28 No rent.
00:11:29 It's really nice.
00:11:31 Yeah.
00:11:33 [music]
00:11:35 [music]
00:11:39 [music]
00:11:43 [music]
00:12:10 [laughter]
00:12:12 Thank you.
00:12:15 I met a celebrity.
00:12:17 This is great.
00:12:18 Thanks.
00:12:19 Don't tell me.
00:12:26 It's, um, it's Fred, right?
00:12:28 Fred.
00:12:29 Coffee shop.
00:12:30 Yeah.
00:12:31 Yeah.
00:12:32 Liam.
00:12:33 Yeah.
00:12:34 I did not know this is what the bourgeois business types did.
00:12:36 You know?
00:12:37 In their free time when they're not doing coffee.
00:12:38 This is good.
00:12:39 Yeah.
00:12:40 William Fencer.
00:12:41 He reads 50 books a year and he is a billionaire, so.
00:12:44 There you go.
00:12:45 But my favorite author just released their new book, so I had to get my hands on it.
00:12:49 Oh, really?
00:12:50 Yeah.
00:12:51 What book is it?
00:12:52 Airship.
00:12:53 May I?
00:12:54 Mm-hmm.
00:12:55 Yeah, he's amazing.
00:12:56 I have all of his books.
00:12:57 Yeah, to be honest, I would not have pegged you as an avid sci-fi fan.
00:13:01 Yeah.
00:13:02 I might have to steal this from you at some point.
00:13:04 Totally.
00:13:05 If you steal steal it, you know, I'm going to have to hunt you down.
00:13:08 You know where to find me.
00:13:10 What's in your bag?
00:13:12 Oh, this is some of that mid-century Russian poetry.
00:13:16 Oh.
00:13:17 Action, you know?
00:13:18 Nice.
00:13:19 Yeah, I'm a big fan of it.
00:13:20 It's magazines.
00:13:21 It's literally just magazines from my coffee shop.
00:13:22 I'm not that classy.
00:13:23 Cool.
00:13:24 Yeah.
00:13:25 I was going to ask, what do you do at the building?
00:13:27 Oh, I just started writing for Romantique.
00:13:29 Really?
00:13:30 How do you like that so far?
00:13:31 Oh, I love it, you know?
00:13:33 I've wanted to be a writer since I was a kid, so it's like a dream job.
00:13:36 So I'm super excited, but also really nervous, because I really want to get things right
00:13:41 and not mess anything up.
00:13:43 Well, for sure, yeah.
00:13:45 It's like a huge, first of all, congrats.
00:13:47 Yeah, that's a big step.
00:13:49 Yeah.
00:13:50 New job.
00:13:51 Well, I mean, if you're as good at that as you are at talking to random dudes at a bookstore,
00:13:56 I think you're going to crush it.
00:13:57 You're going to do great.
00:13:58 Thank you.
00:13:59 Yeah.
00:14:00 And I will be serving coffee to you all the way, OK?
00:14:04 Don't forget the little people.
00:14:05 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:14:09 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:14:13 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:14:41 Hi.
00:14:42 Can I just vent for a sec?
00:14:44 Oh, heavens.
00:14:45 Give me the tea.
00:14:46 So I've been here for what?
00:14:48 A little over a week?
00:14:49 I've been on three Blender dates, and I've got nothing to write about.
00:14:54 Oh, Marcus was a bust.
00:14:56 Oh, Marcus.
00:14:57 Yeah, he just sat there and, like, primped his hair in the restaurant window--
00:15:00 Who?
00:15:01 --the entire time.
00:15:02 Andrew was 30 minutes late and also on his phone the entire time.
00:15:08 No, no.
00:15:09 Who else was there?
00:15:10 Oh, Paul.
00:15:11 Oh, Paul.
00:15:12 You said you had fun with Paul.
00:15:13 I did.
00:15:14 Yeah.
00:15:15 Paul, he wasn't a bust.
00:15:16 OK.
00:15:17 Just not Mr. Right.
00:15:18 He was more like Mr. Basement, not Mr. Right.
00:15:21 Stop it.
00:15:22 No.
00:15:23 I mean, he was fun--
00:15:24 Oh, my gosh.
00:15:25 --and has high aspirations, knows what he wants.
00:15:27 Yeah, just not what I want.
00:15:30 Oh.
00:15:31 Yeah, I don't really know how to turn any of these into an article.
00:15:34 Mm, oof.
00:15:36 Big oof.
00:15:37 Well, I'll tell you what.
00:15:38 Why don't you take a break from Mr. Right and come help me with my article tonight?
00:15:43 Yes.
00:15:44 Yes?
00:15:45 You know, I'm always down to be the date for Romantica's restaurant reviewer.
00:15:48 Stop it.
00:15:49 Stop it.
00:15:50 Where are we eating?
00:15:51 Pazzo's just down the street.
00:15:52 Italian plates.
00:15:53 Yeah.
00:15:54 7 PM.
00:15:55 Sounds good.
00:15:56 OK.
00:15:57 Sweet.
00:15:58 Maybe I'll have a stroke of inspiration by the end of the day.
00:16:00 Yeah.
00:16:01 Yeah, it will happen.
00:16:02 All right.
00:16:03 Back to work.
00:16:04 OK.
00:16:05 OK.
00:16:06 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:16:08 Oh, the restaurant.
00:16:35 Pick up, pick up.
00:16:36 Hi, Lila.
00:16:40 Yes, I'm late.
00:16:41 I'm just leaving the office.
00:16:42 Yeah, I'll see you in a bit.
00:16:43 Hey, hold the elevator.
00:16:46 Oh.
00:16:47 Oh.
00:16:48 Hey.
00:16:49 I am so sorry.
00:16:50 It's no problem.
00:16:53 I, uh, I'm always happy to find a beautiful woman in my arms.
00:16:57 Does this happen to you a lot?
00:16:59 No, not as often as I'd like.
00:17:02 Oh.
00:17:03 Oh, my gosh, your phone.
00:17:04 Yeah.
00:17:05 Ah, is it all right?
00:17:07 Oh, shoot.
00:17:09 Oh, what's wrong?
00:17:10 Well, it looks like when it fell, it knocked your number right out.
00:17:14 So if you can just add it back in here.
00:17:17 I don't know.
00:17:18 I'm not one to just hand out my number.
00:17:20 I mean, you could be a complete scoundrel after all.
00:17:23 Scoundrel?
00:17:24 Well, maybe.
00:17:26 But I have already held you in my arms and used my best line on you, so--
00:17:30 Your best line?
00:17:32 I don't even know your name.
00:17:34 That's easy to fix.
00:17:35 Thomas.
00:17:36 I work on the seventh floor.
00:17:37 Christiansen and Associates.
00:17:39 Sure.
00:17:40 There you go.
00:17:41 Now we're no longer strangers.
00:17:43 We can fix this with your number, and I can thank you by taking you out sometime.
00:17:48 All right.
00:17:49 I guess it wouldn't hurt.
00:17:55 I look forward to you running into me again.
00:18:08 Okay, this place is definitely hitting five stars.
00:18:10 I tell you, if that chickadee parm was a man, I would be having him over, whining and dining right now,
00:18:14 maybe even showing my dead bug collection.
00:18:17 Literally.
00:18:18 I meant that very literally.
00:18:19 Cute.
00:18:20 Yeah.
00:18:21 Yes, this was just what I needed.
00:18:23 Hey, thanks so much for this.
00:18:25 It's so nice to have a girlfriend to, like, do things with and go to dinner, and--
00:18:29 I don't know, I've been missing that since I moved here.
00:18:32 Oh.
00:18:33 Yeah, well, I mean, I get it, you know.
00:18:35 I--we moved around a lot growing up, and I've been there.
00:18:39 I know what it's like moving to a new place, not having friends, not knowing anyone, so--
00:18:43 That must have been hard.
00:18:45 I mean, yeah, but it was--it was okay, you know.
00:18:48 It taught me to be really outgoing and, um--
00:18:52 Vervacious.
00:18:54 Which, you know, works out really well when you're a kid making friends with other kids, but--
00:18:57 Yeah.
00:18:58 It did not translate very well into adulthood.
00:19:00 I think some people find me a bit--I don't know--a bit much.
00:19:05 No.
00:19:06 You?
00:19:07 I don't see it.
00:19:09 Rude, actually, rude.
00:19:11 Oh, city life is--
00:19:12 No, I actually like it, I do.
00:19:14 I find you refreshing.
00:19:17 Mm-hmm.
00:19:18 Really.
00:19:19 Well, we'll see how long that lasts, you know.
00:19:20 The novelty of me will wear off.
00:19:23 Okay.
00:19:25 I know--I know you said no work, Mr. Right talk, but I have to tell you, I think fate has provided a miracle.
00:19:34 Oh, found yourself a little something-something.
00:19:37 I did, I did.
00:19:39 On my way out of the building tonight.
00:19:41 Yeah, I quite literally fell into the arms of, I don't know, the perfect man.
00:19:45 Oh, do tell.
00:19:46 Well, perfect for the article, I mean.
00:19:49 Yeah, his name is Thomas, and he works in the law firm at our building.
00:19:54 So let's hope that he's as intriguing as he seems.
00:19:57 Sounds like fate.
00:19:58 Yeah, it's perfect, because I have one day after to write the article and get it submitted on time, and hallelujah.
00:20:04 So, how are we feeling, dessert?
00:20:06 Yes.
00:20:07 Okay.
00:20:08 Garçon!
00:20:09 That's a woman.
00:20:10 Can we see the dessert menu, please?
00:20:13 Thank you.
00:20:14 Oh, she's going to spit my cheesecake.
00:20:17 Hey.
00:20:18 Good morning.
00:20:19 I'm excited to see that you are becoming one of the regulars.
00:20:22 Oh, what constitutes someone becoming a regular?
00:20:25 Usually about a month, but I'm going to give you a free handout, because I messed your order up so bad last time.
00:20:31 I am status here now.
00:20:32 You do have status here now.
00:20:34 I brought you something.
00:20:37 It's my favorite.
00:20:39 Oh, this is the same guy, same author, right?
00:20:41 Okay, yeah, no, no, I've heard about this. Heard good stuff.
00:20:43 Thank you.
00:20:44 It's very nice.
00:20:45 Oh, how are you getting moved in?
00:20:47 Ask me next week, when I actually have time to open my boxes.
00:20:52 I know, moving is the worst.
00:20:54 I was going to ask, since you're new in town, I thought maybe tonight I could show you around.
00:21:00 Oh, yeah, I would love to see the city.
00:21:03 Thank you.
00:21:04 But I actually have a date tonight, and my career kind of depends on this one.
00:21:11 For my articles, I mean.
00:21:13 Oh, okay, right.
00:21:16 Um, what about Saturday? Or are you working?
00:21:20 Oh, yeah, no, for sure.
00:21:23 Uh, no, yes, I'm not working this Saturday.
00:21:26 Saturday works great. Saturday's awesome.
00:21:29 Okay, let me give you my number, and we can plan a time.
00:21:35 Okay.
00:21:36 Sounds good.
00:21:37 Here you go.
00:21:38 Thanks.
00:21:39 See ya.
00:21:44 You got her number.
00:21:46 Smooth.
00:21:49 Is all you do here just be a stop on my conversations?
00:21:53 What else am I supposed to do while I'm here all day?
00:22:00 Impressive.
00:22:01 I've been on quite a few golf courses.
00:22:04 Yeah, so this is your sport.
00:22:06 Well, when you do law for a living and have to wear a tie all day,
00:22:10 you find yourself on quite a few golf courses,
00:22:14 with men twice your age schmoozing.
00:22:17 Oh, yeah.
00:22:18 It's all just part of the job.
00:22:19 I see.
00:22:20 But do you actually like golfing?
00:22:23 Yeah, I will. Now I just find it relaxing.
00:22:28 Okay.
00:22:29 It's harder than it looks.
00:22:31 Try loosening up your grip a little bit.
00:22:33 Yeah, okay. All right.
00:22:34 You got this.
00:22:36 Okay.
00:22:37 Okay, here.
00:22:38 I'm going to try to help a little bit here.
00:22:40 So try widening your stance a little bit.
00:22:42 Shoulder width apart.
00:22:43 Oh, hi.
00:22:44 All right.
00:22:45 Ready?
00:22:46 Okay.
00:22:47 Okay, go for it.
00:22:49 There you go.
00:22:50 Oh.
00:22:51 That's a little bit better.
00:22:52 Not bad.
00:22:53 You like that?
00:22:54 Yeah.
00:22:55 So what about you?
00:22:56 You said you're new to the city.
00:22:57 Yeah, I moved here about a month ago.
00:22:59 I got an in-house job working for Romantique.
00:23:02 Romantique.
00:23:03 So that makes you a relationship expert.
00:23:06 Hardly.
00:23:07 Wow, I'm in way over my head.
00:23:09 Please.
00:23:11 All right, you ready?
00:23:13 Yeah.
00:23:14 Did you see that?
00:23:20 Yes.
00:23:21 Okay.
00:23:22 So good. Well done.
00:23:23 Take notes.
00:23:24 Wow.
00:23:31 Thanks for today.
00:23:33 I never realized how hard it is to actually hit a golf ball before,
00:23:37 but I had fun.
00:23:39 Yeah, it's got its tricks to it.
00:23:40 I had fun, too.
00:23:42 I really enjoyed talking with you.
00:23:45 Oh, sorry.
00:23:48 So maybe I can come in with you.
00:23:50 Help you get settled in.
00:23:52 Oh, a little bold for a first date, don't you think?
00:23:58 I already held you in my arms.
00:24:00 Do you remember the elevator?
00:24:01 Oh, yes, I remember.
00:24:04 Look, I don't kiss guys on first dates,
00:24:07 let alone invite them up to my apartment for the night, so --
00:24:11 Come on, Chara, I thought we hit it off today.
00:24:13 We did.
00:24:15 That doesn't mean --
00:24:18 Wow.
00:24:19 Thank you, Thomas, for the date.
00:24:23 Okay.
00:24:30 [door opens]
00:24:32 So let's talk about Mr. Right.
00:24:45 If a guy's got drive and a sense of duty towards what he does for a living,
00:24:50 that can be super attractive.
00:24:53 But that doesn't mean Mr. Elevator, Mr. Legal,
00:24:58 no, Mr. Business.
00:25:03 That doesn't mean Mr. Business is going to be Mr. Right.
00:25:07 Because if he's not going to respect you,
00:25:09 then he's not even worth the cheap polyester his suit's made out of.
00:25:13 I went on a date with Mr. Business, and here's what happened.
00:25:20 [soft music]
00:25:23 I like it. It's got spunk.
00:25:36 You know, the last person that tried to write for Mr. Right,
00:25:39 they weren't willing to hit the hard truths like this.
00:25:42 Look, you've already proven to me that you deserve this job.
00:25:46 So what's next?
00:25:49 Well, after Mr. Business, I was thinking Mr. Boy or Mr. Basement.
00:25:55 I haven't really decided on a name yet, but--
00:25:58 I like it. I do.
00:26:00 Keep up the good work.
00:26:02 Okay.
00:26:03 All right. Let's see what happens next week.
00:26:06 Charlotte, I just heard from the editors about your article.
00:26:13 They loved it.
00:26:15 Yeah, they said it was fire.
00:26:17 Thanks, girl.
00:26:18 Yeah, Miss Weir liked it, too. What a relief.
00:26:21 And also, that Mr. Business, what a real piece of work.
00:26:24 Who just goes in for the kiss like that?
00:26:26 I know, right?
00:26:27 Yeah.
00:26:28 Definitely not Mr. Right material.
00:26:30 Well, it's okay. We can add him to the pile of duck dates,
00:26:32 which it's sounding like it's not a bad thing.
00:26:35 Yeah? I guess not.
00:26:37 No more stress about having to find out who is Mr. Right, right?
00:26:41 Which begs the question,
00:26:43 what is Mr. Right to Charlotte?
00:26:46 To me?
00:26:47 Yeah.
00:26:48 Oh, tall, dark, and handsome.
00:26:51 No, but really.
00:26:54 I don't think he exists, actually.
00:26:57 Seriously?
00:27:00 Oh, come on. I know lots of great relationships.
00:27:03 Yeah. Well, great relationships end in nasty divorce all the time.
00:27:07 So how can you go from loving someone and then totally despising them?
00:27:11 I may not be able to tell you who is Mr. Right,
00:27:13 but I can definitely tell you what Mr. Wrong is.
00:27:18 Maybe that's what my readers need to be reading.
00:27:21 Hmm.
00:27:25 Who's that?
00:27:27 Uh, Liam from the coffee shop.
00:27:30 Yeah, he's going to show me around town tomorrow.
00:27:32 Oh, really?
00:27:35 Okay, he's a friend.
00:27:38 Yeah.
00:27:41 Okay, I know it doesn't look like a whole lot,
00:27:43 but this is absolutely best place in town, hands down.
00:27:46 Really?
00:27:47 Yeah.
00:27:48 What makes it so special?
00:27:50 Well, me and my dad used to come here and play catch with my brother
00:27:54 and, you know, just kind of hang out.
00:27:55 But that is not why it's the best place in town.
00:27:58 That is.
00:28:00 A bakery.
00:28:02 That's Melvin's Pastry Kitchen.
00:28:04 Actually, it's more of a confectionary, really.
00:28:06 It's the best confections in the state and probably the whole country.
00:28:10 Wow.
00:28:12 That is a very big claim, sir.
00:28:15 Are you ready to back it up?
00:28:17 Oh, yeah.
00:28:18 I can back it up.
00:28:19 Okay.
00:28:20 After you.
00:28:21 Going to blow your mind.
00:28:24 Hmm.
00:28:25 Rose Petal Cream Tart.
00:28:27 Could be good.
00:28:28 Maybe, yeah.
00:28:29 I'm going to go with the OG, probably.
00:28:32 It's the chocolate cake donut.
00:28:33 It's really good.
00:28:34 You should try something new.
00:28:36 I tried something new once and it was the worst experience of my life.
00:28:39 Really?
00:28:40 I vow to never do it again.
00:28:42 Come on.
00:28:45 Okay, yeah.
00:28:46 You know what?
00:28:47 I'll take it under advisement.
00:28:48 No, sir.
00:28:49 Sir.
00:28:50 You know what you want?
00:28:51 I do.
00:28:52 Okay.
00:28:53 [♪♪♪]
00:29:03 Oh, wow.
00:29:04 This is so good.
00:29:05 I told you.
00:29:06 I know what I'm talking about.
00:29:08 I know what I'm doing.
00:29:10 How is your classic donut?
00:29:12 Okay, first of all, how dare you?
00:29:14 It's just square.
00:29:15 This is the opposite of a classic donut.
00:29:17 It's basic.
00:29:18 OG donuts around.
00:29:19 This is not that.
00:29:20 It's maple.
00:29:21 Come on.
00:29:22 You're shaking it up.
00:29:23 Oh, um, dad gave me the walking tour.
00:29:26 I forgot.
00:29:27 Walking tour.
00:29:28 Yeah.
00:29:29 Yeah, I told you I'd show you the whole city.
00:29:32 Okay.
00:29:33 Come on, here we go.
00:29:34 So in 1968, City Hall was settled.
00:29:38 Our proud little town is more than it seems.
00:29:42 [♪♪♪]
00:29:50 Finally, Canela's.
00:29:54 Let me guess, the best pizza place in the city.
00:29:57 Oh, no, it's not even the best pizza place on the street.
00:30:00 But everyone comes here at least once.
00:30:02 Why?
00:30:03 I think it's got a certain...
00:30:06 Je ne sais quoi.
00:30:07 Oh.
00:30:08 You've got to try it.
00:30:09 Okay.
00:30:10 [♪♪♪]
00:30:15 I told you.
00:30:16 It's like eating really good cardboard, right?
00:30:18 It's nice.
00:30:19 Oh, man.
00:30:20 On that note, I am--
00:30:22 Run really quick.
00:30:23 I'll be right back.
00:30:24 Okay, have fun.
00:30:25 I will.
00:30:26 Most mediocre pizza in the city.
00:30:28 I told you.
00:30:29 [laughing]
00:30:30 Hey there.
00:30:39 So you, uh, ever been to this fine dining establishment before?
00:30:45 I have not.
00:30:46 I just moved here, so my friend is showing me the sights.
00:30:49 Nice.
00:30:50 Your friend?
00:30:51 Yeah.
00:30:52 That's great.
00:30:53 I'll be your friend till he gets back.
00:30:54 How about that?
00:30:55 Okay.
00:30:56 I'm Max, by the way.
00:30:57 Um, Charlotte.
00:30:58 Great name.
00:30:59 I love that.
00:31:00 Thank you.
00:31:01 Yeah, the city's--
00:31:02 The city's great.
00:31:04 But, I mean, if you're new in town,
00:31:07 you have to check out the local outdoors soon.
00:31:09 Oh, yeah?
00:31:10 Yeah, less than, like, an hour outside the city.
00:31:12 You got rock climbing.
00:31:13 You got the best rappelling.
00:31:15 You got base jumping.
00:31:17 Impressive.
00:31:18 You got to check it out.
00:31:19 It's crazy.
00:31:20 Maybe I could take you sometime out to the cliffs.
00:31:25 Hmm.
00:31:27 A little brazen.
00:31:29 Definitely presumptuous.
00:31:31 You got to check it out.
00:31:32 It's crazy.
00:31:33 It could be fun.
00:31:34 And would definitely make for an interesting article.
00:31:38 Base jumping.
00:31:40 I wonder how dangerous that is.
00:31:43 What would I call him?
00:31:45 Mr. Adrenaline Junkie?
00:31:48 No.
00:31:49 Mr. Outdoors?
00:31:50 Maybe Mr. Adventure?
00:31:54 So, it's a date?
00:31:56 Hmm.
00:31:58 All right.
00:32:00 All right?
00:32:01 Let's go have an adventure.
00:32:03 Let's do it.
00:32:04 Here.
00:32:05 Throw your number in that bad boy.
00:32:06 Okay.
00:32:07 Be careful.
00:32:08 It's fragile.
00:32:09 Yeah.
00:32:10 [laughs]
00:32:13 All right.
00:32:15 Let's see if this is a real number.
00:32:17 Hmm.
00:32:19 Yeah.
00:32:20 Yeah, I think so.
00:32:22 All right.
00:32:23 Well, let's go.
00:32:25 I'll call you then.
00:32:27 And we can go hit those mountains.
00:32:29 Make a great time.
00:32:30 Yeah, all right.
00:32:31 Yeah.
00:32:32 Hey.
00:32:33 Hi.
00:32:34 What's up?
00:32:35 Hey.
00:32:36 What's up?
00:32:37 Hi.
00:32:38 I'm actually out.
00:32:39 Could I please get a refill from you?
00:32:40 Not an employee.
00:32:41 I was actually sitting there.
00:32:42 Oh, this is--
00:32:43 Yeah.
00:32:44 Oh, gotcha.
00:32:45 You're the--
00:32:46 No.
00:32:47 I like it.
00:32:48 No, you're good, man.
00:32:49 Appreciate you.
00:32:50 Yeah.
00:32:51 So he seems fun.
00:32:52 Yeah.
00:32:53 Do you guys-- do you guys friends?
00:32:54 Is he a friend?
00:32:55 No.
00:32:56 He literally just sat here and started talking to me about rock climbing.
00:32:57 Wow.
00:32:58 Yeah.
00:32:59 That's so-- that's cool.
00:33:00 Yeah.
00:33:01 Yeah, he asked-- I'm going to go with him.
00:33:02 Really?
00:33:03 Mm-hmm.
00:33:04 It could be good for my articles, I think.
00:33:05 Oh, do you write about, like, extreme-- extreme sports?
00:33:06 Mm-hmm.
00:33:07 Dating.
00:33:08 Ooh.
00:33:09 There you go.
00:33:10 Um, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:11 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:12 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:13 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:15 Um, you mean, deface the city's most popular pizza joint?
00:33:16 Yeah, because as you can see, you're definitely the first one that's going to do it, obviously.
00:33:17 You're a trailblazer.
00:33:18 No, um, it's kind of a rite of passage for cannellas.
00:33:19 You can see mine right there.
00:33:20 Aw, cute.
00:33:21 OK.
00:33:22 Oh, I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:23 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:24 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:25 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:26 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:27 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
00:33:28 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.

00:36:54 Miss Paige, what are you still doing here?
00:36:56 Oh, I'm just waiting for my ride.
00:36:58 I examined you quite a while ago.
00:37:00 Yeah, well, I didn't realize my phone was in my pocket when I fell,
00:37:04 so it took a much harder hit than my arm.
00:37:07 Still, you shouldn't be alone.
00:37:08 Those painkillers are no joke.
00:37:10 Oh, no, my friend's coming.
00:37:12 I texted him and they responded, I think.
00:37:14 But I'll be fine.
00:37:16 Still, I think I'll wait here with you.
00:37:17 No, really, you don't have to worry about me.
00:37:19 No, no, it's no problem.
00:37:20 I'm just on my way home.
00:37:21 It's no trouble.
00:37:24 Oh, thanks.
00:37:25 So, rock climbing, huh?
00:37:28 It's a hobby?
00:37:29 No, and definitely never will be.
00:37:32 It was a first date and, coincidentally, a last.
00:37:35 It's memorable.
00:37:37 Yeah.
00:37:38 I mean, it was fun to try something new, I guess,
00:37:40 but maybe next time not something so--
00:37:43 Like trust fall with a stranger?
00:37:45 Yeah, from 15 feet in the air.
00:37:47 I think he just forgot I was even there.
00:37:50 What a real dud.
00:37:53 Yep.
00:37:57 Well, if you like trying new things,
00:37:59 and certainly less risking,
00:38:01 maybe you'd be interested in cooking dinner with me at my place?
00:38:06 I don't mean to brag, but I can make a mean taco.
00:38:10 Oh.
00:38:11 Or you're not going to say, like, you're a professional chef or something, right?
00:38:14 No, no, definitely not.
00:38:16 I've just never been asked out by my doctor before.
00:38:20 Oh, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
00:38:23 Do you think I could eat tacos with one hand?
00:38:26 I think you have a pretty good chance of doing that, yeah.
00:38:28 All right.
00:38:30 Sounds nice.
00:38:31 Okay.
00:38:32 Let me give you my number.
00:38:34 Second thought, could I have your number?
00:38:36 Yeah.
00:38:37 I'll put it in just so you know it's real.
00:38:40 What?
00:38:41 So what do I call you?
00:38:43 Dr. Bailey, Doc Bailey.
00:38:45 My first name is Jared.
00:38:47 Okay, Dr. Jared.
00:38:49 I'm Charlotte.
00:38:50 Charlotte.
00:38:52 Charlotte.
00:38:53 Oh, that's my ride.
00:38:55 Well, thanks so much, Dr. Jared.
00:38:59 I look forward to a much safer date.
00:39:01 Oh, yeah.
00:39:02 Oh.
00:39:03 Oh.
00:39:04 Sorry.
00:39:05 I'll text you in a couple days, yeah?
00:39:06 Okay.
00:39:09 So thankfully my arm is only a buckle fracture,
00:39:14 but my whole side is one giant bruise.
00:39:16 Oh, and I have a mild concussion.
00:39:19 I mean, did he push you off the cliff?
00:39:21 Like, what happened?
00:39:22 No.
00:39:23 Oh, he was just careless.
00:39:25 I'd say that's a little bit more than just careless.
00:39:29 I should have known better.
00:39:32 Oh, and I've decided that vigorous sports are not really my thing.
00:39:36 But thanks for coming to get me.
00:39:38 Oh, different.
00:39:39 My phone is, like, super smashed, and I didn't even know who I was texting.
00:39:43 I know it's your day off, so.
00:39:45 Oh, no, no, please, don't worry about it.
00:39:48 I've got your back.
00:39:49 It's an okay reason to text.
00:39:52 Actually, I am--I broke my arm one time.
00:39:56 The story's not as cool as yours, but I was--yeah, I was 13.
00:40:01 I was climbing trees with my brother, and I just kept going higher and higher,
00:40:06 and then I just dropped, and I woke up, and my arm was in a cast, so.
00:40:12 [♪♪♪]
00:40:16 I'm glad you're okay.
00:40:18 [♪♪♪]
00:40:22 [♪♪♪]
00:40:30 Hi, love.
00:40:31 What are you doing here?
00:40:33 You SOS'd me.
00:40:34 Of course I'm going to be here.
00:40:36 Also, your texts don't really make a whole lot of sense.
00:40:38 Oh, my gosh, what happened to your wrist?
00:40:40 Yeah.
00:40:41 What? No.
00:40:42 [♪♪♪]
00:40:44 Like I said, this soup is a cure for everything--
00:40:46 breakups, illnesses, bodily harm, you name it.
00:40:52 You'll see. You'll see.
00:40:55 Oh, Char, I'm so sorry.
00:40:57 Oh, it's fine.
00:41:00 But hey, at least you have some great content for your article.
00:41:02 Yeah, enough for the readers to be satisfied, I think.
00:41:06 Oh, come on.
00:41:07 The stuff you've been producing lately has been so good.
00:41:09 Yeah.
00:41:10 I don't know.
00:41:12 Come on, you're a great writer.
00:41:14 You're great at meeting people, and you're really good at dating.
00:41:17 That's like a win, win, win.
00:41:20 I do love meeting people.
00:41:23 But I want to be authentic in what I'm writing about.
00:41:27 And I just--
00:41:29 I don't think I really believe in the whole Mr. Right,
00:41:33 happily ever after thing.
00:41:35 Oh, kind of disingenuous?
00:41:39 See, I don't know.
00:41:42 I believe that there's a right person for everyone.
00:41:45 You know, like my parents have been married for, what, 30 years?
00:41:49 And with each year that passes,
00:41:50 they just seem to fall in love with each other even more, you know?
00:41:53 It's-- I don't know.
00:41:55 I want that.
00:41:57 Yeah, I want that for you, too.
00:41:59 You'll find it.
00:42:01 But anyways, let's get you feeling better.
00:42:03 Let's get your arm better.
00:42:05 Let's get you eating the soup that I made for you.
00:42:08 Okay, Mom.
00:42:10 Okay.
00:42:11 You have to hand me my soup.
00:42:12 Adopt a non-Asian daughter.
00:42:14 [water running]
00:42:18 [liquid pouring]
00:42:22 [bells ringing]
00:42:27 Coffee.
00:42:29 Black like my miserable heart.
00:42:31 Good to see you, too.
00:42:33 You're changing it up. What's going on?
00:42:34 Well, yeah, you know what?
00:42:35 It's been that kind of a day, Liam.
00:42:37 I know the feeling.
00:42:39 Is Charlotte-- she's still out?
00:42:41 Yeah, you know, I--
00:42:42 Liam, I don't have anyone to talk to now.
00:42:45 Would she want me--
00:42:46 like, would she want someone to call her?
00:42:49 Just-- I feel bad.
00:42:50 I'm worried about--
00:42:52 Huh.
00:42:54 I don't know.
00:42:57 Okay.
00:42:58 I can see that coming.
00:43:01 Oh, he likes it.
00:43:03 [bells ringing]
00:43:07 Hi, how can I help you today?
00:43:08 Hi.
00:43:09 Ooh, ouch, that looked like it hurt.
00:43:11 Oh, it did.
00:43:12 But all wrapped up now and feeling better.
00:43:15 But that's not all that happened to me.
00:43:17 My phone took a couple, too.
00:43:19 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:43:20 I didn't mean to be rude.
00:43:21 My name's Renee. May I have your name?
00:43:23 Charlotte, Charlotte Page.
00:43:25 Charlotte Page.
00:43:26 Do you blog?
00:43:28 No, but I write for an online magazine.
00:43:30 Yeah, Mr. Right?
00:43:32 Yeah.
00:43:33 Oh, my gosh.
00:43:34 Oh, I am loving that series.
00:43:36 Okay, wow, I knew your name sounded familiar.
00:43:39 I've been sharing your pieces with all my friends.
00:43:41 Really?
00:43:42 Yes.
00:43:43 Thank you.
00:43:44 Totally inspiring.
00:43:45 It's so cool to have you in here.
00:43:46 I read that piece you wrote a few weeks ago
00:43:48 about the basement dweller.
00:43:49 Oh, yeah?
00:43:50 Ugh, yeah.
00:43:51 You made me realize how lazy all men are.
00:43:54 Oh, um, he wasn't lazy.
00:43:58 He just had different goals in life.
00:44:01 And anyways, not all men are lazy.
00:44:03 Some just drop you off a cliff.
00:44:05 Oh, my gosh.
00:44:07 Is that going to be in the article?
00:44:09 I can't wait to read it.
00:44:11 [indistinct chatter]
00:44:14 You live!
00:44:31 Hi.
00:44:32 Hi.
00:44:33 Yep, still alive and kicking.
00:44:35 Although with every day, my bruises get more and more colorful.
00:44:38 Mm, owie.
00:44:39 Maybe you should start including pictures in your articles.
00:44:41 I should.
00:44:42 Seriously, though, I'm so, so glad you're back.
00:44:45 Yesterday was so long and so boring.
00:44:48 I had to talk to the I.T. guy.
00:44:49 A riveting conversation, I'm sure.
00:44:51 Yeah, oh, my gosh, you have no idea.
00:44:52 Oh, look, I got a new phone.
00:44:55 Wait, what? Already?
00:44:56 Yeah, well, I wanted it working for when the doctor calls.
00:45:00 I'm sorry, the what?
00:45:02 Wait, did I not tell you?
00:45:03 No!
00:45:04 Yeah, he wants to make dinner for me at his place tonight.
00:45:07 Okay, could you just give me whatever it is that makes you so irresistible to men?
00:45:12 Seriously, have you ever talked to a guy who did not end up asking you out?
00:45:15 Okay, this is not my normal life.
00:45:17 I just think the fates are having pity on me so that I have material to write about.
00:45:22 Oh, just material to write about, that would be so nice.
00:45:26 Hey.
00:45:31 Hi.
00:45:34 [doorbell rings]
00:45:36 Haven't seen you around the building much.
00:45:38 Been busy.
00:45:40 Yeah, me too.
00:45:42 Evidently.
00:45:44 I noticed I was lucky enough to be featured in one of your romantique articles.
00:45:51 Yeah, that was just--
00:45:53 Had an ex-girlfriend of mine share it to my timeline.
00:45:57 She said it sounded like me.
00:45:59 Didn't know it literally was me.
00:46:03 Thousands of comments about what a classless jerk I was.
00:46:08 I don't think that's--
00:46:09 Then I saw your other articles.
00:46:11 About other guys who must have been unfortunate enough to go out on dates with you.
00:46:17 I'm just glad you're finding good fodder for your viral articles.
00:46:26 And I thought I was supposed to be the jerk.
00:46:32 I never lied about you.
00:46:35 Oh, but you were honest.
00:47:00 Hey, Dr. B-- Dr. Jared.
00:47:03 Yeah.
00:47:06 Oh.
00:47:10 Charlotte.
00:47:24 Hey.
00:47:25 Liam. Hi.
00:47:26 How's it going?
00:47:27 I'm all right.
00:47:29 Good. I didn't think I'd catch you on a work day.
00:47:32 Doing okay? How's the arm doing?
00:47:35 Oh, my arm is fine. I mean, it's the same.
00:47:38 I don't know. Things are just weird.
00:47:42 Okay.
00:47:45 Do you want to talk about it?
00:47:48 Happy to listen.
00:47:51 I feel like my articles are starting to hurt some people.
00:47:56 More than they're hurting me.
00:47:58 And I was supposed to go out with this guy tonight, but his work is understaffed, so we canceled.
00:48:04 And I have this article due Friday, and it's taking me forever, because I have to, like, chicken-peck the keyboard to get anything done.
00:48:11 That was a good visual. I appreciate that.
00:48:13 You're welcome.
00:48:14 Um, I mean, like, I'm happy to help you with it, if you need help.
00:48:19 Yeah, I mean, I definitely will need some caffeinated beverages to get through this.
00:48:23 This is not what I mean. I'm more than a barista.
00:48:26 Okay, I'm a human, and I have two working hands.
00:48:29 No, for real. Like, if you want to just dictate, I can type your article.
00:48:34 Really?
00:48:35 Yeah. Two at a time.
00:48:39 That's... yeah. Thank you. That would actually be totally awesome.
00:48:44 Yeah. No, it's honestly... it's no problem. Happy to.
00:48:49 Are you busy right now?
00:48:53 Should Mr. Wright be adventurous? Should he try new things and be risky and daring?
00:49:01 Should he help you out of your comfort zone and try new things?
00:49:06 Speaking of which, I tried rock climbing for the first time this week.
00:49:11 I don't know why I put this.
00:49:13 [doorbell rings]
00:49:14 Who's that?
00:49:15 That is food.
00:49:17 Food?
00:49:18 Yep. Hey, we're trying to help people fall in love.
00:49:21 What?
00:49:22 I'm just kidding.
00:49:24 Hey. Thank you so much. Oh, did you get the tip on the app?
00:49:28 Yeah.
00:49:29 Okay, awesome. Thank you so much.
00:49:31 Pizza. Is this what we're going to have every time?
00:49:35 This is our thing?
00:49:36 This is our thing, yeah. No, I was actually trying to be considerate.
00:49:39 It's a one-handed food, because I know that you're an invalid.
00:49:42 Good point.
00:49:43 I know. I do love pizza.
00:49:49 I love being a part of your day on the radio. That wraps it up for us.
00:49:52 Midnight is here. A little co-host for her tonight.
00:49:55 Okay, so Mr. Wright, right?
00:50:00 Yeah, it was Miss Weir's. My boss's at Brainchild.
00:50:05 I gotta ask. Okay, so I thought that, because I always thought that Mr. Wright was like tall, dark, and handsome type situation.
00:50:16 Yeah, that's what every woman's looking for in a man.
00:50:19 Okay, good. Good to know. Wait, though. Okay, hypothetical. So what if a guy is only like tall and dark?
00:50:26 Oh, I guess that would be Mr. Almost Right.
00:50:30 Mr. Almost Right? So there's levels?
00:50:33 Yeah.
00:50:34 There's levels to Mr. Right. Okay. Oh, so if he's none of them, then he's just Mr. Wrong.
00:50:38 Yeah, now you're getting it.
00:50:40 I'm catching on. I finally understand where women fall in.
00:50:43 That's all you'll ever need to know.
00:50:46 Okay, so...
00:50:48 So how tall is tall?
00:50:53 Yeah, at least six feet, you know, for me. Yeah.
00:50:57 That's cruel.
00:50:58 I need to be able to wear a musleto, you know?
00:51:01 I get it, I get it. And dark, that's like an edginess thing, right?
00:51:05 Yeah, that's like an attitude. Yeah, like mysterious, a little dangerous.
00:51:11 Bad boy. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Not too bad, obviously, yeah.
00:51:16 I'm a little afraid to ask this next one, but what is...
00:51:20 What's handsome?
00:51:22 I don't know. Like, just handsome, you know?
00:51:27 Like, you're handsome.
00:51:30 Thanks.
00:51:33 What about, uh, what'd you say, mysterious and dangerous?
00:51:39 Oh, no, no. You are too nice to be dangerous.
00:51:42 Come on, come on.
00:51:43 But, okay, I'll give you mysterious.
00:51:45 Okay. Yeah.
00:51:47 Right. So, I'm too nice.
00:51:50 Mm-hmm.
00:51:51 I'm a couple inches shy of six feet.
00:51:53 I'm a little mysterious, but I am handsome.
00:51:57 So that would make you a solid Mr. Almost Right.
00:52:00 Man, this is really crushing my hopes and dreams of finding a Mrs. Right.
00:52:04 No, but you'll find Mrs. Almost Right and be happy and...
00:52:08 There you go.
00:52:09 ...two mediocre make beautiful children.
00:52:11 Two mediocre.
00:52:12 And...
00:52:13 Match made in heaven. It's a love story for the ages.
00:52:16 Yes. Happily ever after.
00:52:17 Two solid five out of tens find each other.
00:52:20 That's beautiful.
00:52:22 I want that for you.
00:52:24 Thank you. I thank you so much. You're so kind.
00:52:26 Do you want more?
00:52:27 Yes, please.
00:52:29 Okay. So, Mr. Right, he's got to be tall, dark, and handsome.
00:52:34 Mm-hmm.
00:52:35 And also adventurous?
00:52:38 Yep. And a businessman.
00:52:40 And a doctor.
00:52:41 I guess we'll see.
00:52:44 Sounds like being Mr. Right is just getting more and more complicated.
00:52:47 Hey, I don't make the rules. I just write about them.
00:52:51 So, have you always wanted to be a writer?
00:52:54 No.
00:52:56 When I was five, I wanted to be a princess.
00:52:59 Oh. There you go.
00:53:01 It's a luxurious career. Why didn't that one pan out?
00:53:05 Probably, I think, for my 11th birthday, my grandma got me a journal.
00:53:10 But I didn't really do anything with it until...
00:53:13 I think it was my parents' divorce.
00:53:16 Sorry.
00:53:18 What led to the writing?
00:53:21 I think as a kid, I just... I was trying to find ways to cope with everything.
00:53:25 And, you know, whenever they'd scream at each other, I...
00:53:29 I just started writing.
00:53:31 So, I pulled out the old journal, and...
00:53:33 At first, I was writing about my frustrations, and...
00:53:36 Then eventually, I started writing about other worlds to help see mine more clearly.
00:53:43 That's awesome.
00:53:45 Yeah.
00:53:46 Sorry about your parents. That's tough.
00:53:47 It's okay.
00:53:48 I mean, me and my mom actually got really close because of it.
00:53:51 You know, we kind of only had each other for a long time.
00:53:55 Is Dad still in the picture? Do you talk to him?
00:53:57 No, not for years.
00:53:59 There was a lot of bad blood between him and my mom.
00:54:02 So... yeah.
00:54:04 Sorry to hear that.
00:54:06 That's fine. What about you? What about your family?
00:54:10 I mean, we were close growing up.
00:54:12 My brother and my parents, and...
00:54:15 I love my dad.
00:54:17 I wanted to be just like him, actually.
00:54:19 I ended up working at the exact same bank that he worked at.
00:54:22 Wow.
00:54:23 Yeah.
00:54:24 You in a three-piece suit.
00:54:25 I don't see it.
00:54:27 I hated it so much.
00:54:30 I was so bad at it.
00:54:32 I worked there for five years, and yeah, hated every second of it, and then quit a year ago.
00:54:37 So what's next? What's the dream?
00:54:40 The dream?
00:54:41 It's a little cheesy, but I'm kind of living it.
00:54:44 Making coffee?
00:54:45 Yeah, I'm doing what I want to...
00:54:46 Okay, first of all, hold up.
00:54:48 I heard that tone.
00:54:49 No? No judgment?
00:54:50 No, no.
00:54:51 Look, coffee, it's not just a drink.
00:54:53 Charlotte, it's an art form, right?
00:54:55 There are monastery monks in, like, the 15th century
00:54:58 who are using the exact same brew that we use today, all right?
00:55:01 The bean, it unites generations, Charlotte, okay?
00:55:05 Coffee's not just a drink. You gotta respect the bean.
00:55:07 I respect the bean.
00:55:08 Okay, good.
00:55:09 No, no, I love being able to do something well enough
00:55:13 that people from all over the city want to come around and kind of
00:55:17 have a part in what I'm doing.
00:55:19 [♪♪♪]
00:55:24 You know, passion is a plus for a mister, right?
00:55:27 You don't say.
00:55:29 It's good to know.
00:55:30 [♪♪♪]
00:55:33 What's next?
00:55:34 Yeah, where were we?
00:55:36 Okay, look, I am all for lowering cholesterol and all that stuff.
00:55:43 [snoring]
00:55:44 But I swear, if I had known that you were gonna wake me up
00:55:47 on a Saturday morning to do this, when cartoons are on, mind you--
00:55:51 I'm sorry.
00:55:52 I would never have decided to befriend you.
00:55:54 True story.
00:55:55 I know. This was a horrible idea.
00:55:57 Yeah. Can we be done?
00:55:59 I'm done. I'm done.
00:56:00 Yes.
00:56:01 Okay.
00:56:02 Let's go see Liam.
00:56:03 Yeah, let's go.
00:56:04 [laughing]
00:56:05 [bell ringing]
00:56:08 Hey.
00:56:09 Hey, Liam.
00:56:10 I did not think I'd see you guys here on a Saturday.
00:56:12 You still need coffee on a Saturday.
00:56:14 True.
00:56:15 We're here to use and abuse our friendship with the coffee guy.
00:56:18 Please, abuse away.
00:56:19 I've been so slow in here all day, I need to give someone a discount.
00:56:22 Has anyone even been in here today?
00:56:24 Yes. We had Gary in earlier.
00:56:26 Aw.
00:56:27 He's the janitor.
00:56:28 Yes, we love Gary. He's a sweetheart.
00:56:30 See you next date?
00:56:32 Yeah, Mr. Janitor.
00:56:34 He's my next victim.
00:56:36 I do have a date lined up, though.
00:56:38 Yeah.
00:56:39 Wow.
00:56:40 What you working on?
00:56:41 Oh, doing some paperwork stuff.
00:56:43 Really fun.
00:56:44 Nice.
00:56:45 Sounds official.
00:56:46 What's it for?
00:56:47 Ah, just bookkeeping and receipts for the shop.
00:56:50 So your boss has you working the counter and the books?
00:56:54 Yeah.
00:56:55 Geez.
00:56:56 He's pretty demanding.
00:56:57 [laughing]
00:56:58 Oh, speaking of work and paper,
00:57:00 I was wondering if you could help me write my next article.
00:57:03 The doctor one.
00:57:04 I'd love to.
00:57:05 Yeah.
00:57:06 Okay.
00:57:07 Cool.
00:57:08 I'll grab you the coffee.
00:57:10 Yes.
00:57:11 What can I get for you ladies?
00:57:13 I'll have a chocolate raspberry smoothie.
00:57:15 Okay, smoothie.
00:57:17 I will try the cinnamon latte.
00:57:22 You're shaking it up.
00:57:23 Mm-hmm.
00:57:24 Look at you go.
00:57:25 [laughing]
00:57:26 [phone ringing]
00:57:28 Question.
00:57:29 Yeah, what's up?
00:57:31 You're single, right?
00:57:33 I am, yes.
00:57:36 Are you looking for a relationship?
00:57:39 That's a good question.
00:57:42 Yeah, I think like most people,
00:57:44 I'm always kind of looking for someone.
00:57:46 I just haven't found the right person yet.
00:57:49 But I wouldn't be opposed to it if something did come up.
00:57:55 Hey.
00:57:57 Maybe she can teach me to be Mr. Right.
00:58:00 [laughing]
00:58:03 [indistinct chatter]
00:58:13 [indistinct chatter]
00:58:23 [indistinct chatter]
00:58:33 [indistinct chatter]
00:58:41 I really like the shading on this one.
00:58:44 Yeah, yeah, it's nice.
00:58:46 Yeah.
00:58:55 Wow.
00:58:58 I love the cobblestone.
00:59:00 I just want to follow it.
00:59:03 See where it goes.
00:59:07 So if you could go to any fictional place,
00:59:11 where would you go?
00:59:14 Like, I would go to Rivendell from "Lord of the Rings."
00:59:18 Like in Middle Earth.
00:59:19 I'd want to hear the songs of the elves
00:59:21 and hear the stories of Middle Earth.
00:59:23 That's where I'd go.
00:59:25 What about you?
00:59:27 Mm, probably Malaru.
00:59:31 It's just this place in a book that I like.
00:59:33 Oh, yeah, "Airship"?
00:59:34 Yeah.
00:59:35 I just finished it.
00:59:36 Really?
00:59:37 Yeah.
00:59:38 What did you think?
00:59:39 I mean, you first.
00:59:42 Oh, I really, really liked the part where--
00:59:47 Wow, it's actually kind of fun to be on a date with Mr.
00:59:52 Good Taste in Books, Mr. Well-Read, Mr. Not That Into Art
00:59:58 But Definitely the Gym, or Mr. Interesting.
01:00:04 Well, I hope to see you again.
01:00:06 Yeah, me too.
01:00:08 Cool.
01:00:09 Well, I'm-- there we go.
01:00:11 All right.
01:00:12 Bye.
01:00:13 How we doing?
01:00:27 Not too great.
01:00:28 I am unfortunately still not adjusted to the whole
01:00:32 one-handed typing thing.
01:00:34 But good news, I get this beast off tomorrow.
01:00:37 Hallelujah.
01:00:38 Hallelujah.
01:00:39 Look at you go.
01:00:40 OK, are we doing--
01:00:42 is it doctor or museum guy today?
01:00:45 Mr. Perfection.
01:00:46 So I'm guessing-- ooh, doctor.
01:00:49 This is it.
01:00:50 How can this guy not be Mr. Right?
01:00:52 He's a doctor.
01:00:53 He's accomplished.
01:00:54 He loves to make tacos.
01:00:56 I had high hopes.
01:00:57 I did.
01:00:58 But he was pretty fastidious, I guess you could say.
01:01:04 There was definitely some incompatibilities.
01:01:07 Yeah, his loss.
01:01:08 I'm kind of nervous for when you write one of these things
01:01:11 about the dates we've been on.
01:01:12 Well, lucky for you, we haven't been on any dates.
01:01:15 So you're off the hook.
01:01:18 I mean, yeah, but like we've gone out.
01:01:21 Mm-hmm.
01:01:22 Yeah, but as friends, that's hardly the same.
01:01:25 Yeah, right.
01:01:26 Um, OK, yeah, so Mr. Mixed and Mr. Perfectionist.
01:01:32 Tell me about him.
01:01:33 Yes, Mr. Right would do well to have a clean streak.
01:01:37 After all, cleanliness is next to godliness.
01:01:40 But there is a fine line between Mr. Perfect
01:01:44 and Mr. Perfectionist when the place you put your purse down
01:01:49 is more important than being welcoming, fun, or spontaneous.
01:01:52 That sounds pointed.
01:01:54 Did he do something like that?
01:01:56 Yeah, no, I put my purse on the couch, and that was not OK.
01:01:59 Shut up.
01:02:00 Really?
01:02:01 Yeah.
01:02:02 Ooh, red flag.
01:02:03 So ladies, find yourself a guy who is tidy,
01:02:07 but also gives you the permission--
01:02:10 or no, who is tidy, but also lets you be yourself.
01:02:15 Makes really good tacos.
01:02:17 And makes good tacos.
01:02:18 Good.
01:02:20 I don't know, am I going about this the wrong way?
01:02:23 Like, for these guys, these dates are real.
01:02:25 Well, yeah, I mean, if you're going to write about dating,
01:02:28 you've got to date, right?
01:02:30 Yeah, that's true.
01:02:31 I guess I just never thought about how it might affect
01:02:34 the guys I went out with.
01:02:35 You know, it's kind of inevitable, though, sure.
01:02:37 You know, when you're writing for an audience,
01:02:39 you're going to be offending people.
01:02:41 You know, like, I've been banned from loads of restaurants.
01:02:44 Really?
01:02:45 No, yeah, but you know what, I'm not mad about it,
01:02:47 because their food was absolute rubbish,
01:02:49 so I'm really not missing out on anything.
01:02:51 You know, you write about the bad stuff and the good stuff.
01:02:54 Yeah.
01:02:55 Yeah.
01:02:56 I just never imagined that one of these guys
01:02:58 would actually read any of my articles.
01:03:00 Geez.
01:03:02 I mean, OK, if you're worried about it,
01:03:05 then maybe instead of dating lots of guys,
01:03:08 maybe you just date one guy.
01:03:10 Well, I did have a good time with Jimmy at the museum.
01:03:17 We, like, totally hit it off and had quite a bit in common.
01:03:20 I would just feel bad dating him under false pretenses.
01:03:24 OK, what is wrong with you?
01:03:25 Oh.
01:03:26 No, not Jimmy, not Jimmy.
01:03:27 We like Liam.
01:03:28 Liam.
01:03:29 Yeah.
01:03:30 I would no sooner date you, but I wouldn't do that either,
01:03:33 because I don't date my friends.
01:03:35 You really want to date me?
01:03:39 OK, but not to be the person who beats a dead horse,
01:03:45 but seriously, have you given any real thought about Liam?
01:03:48 Why are you being so pushy?
01:03:50 I mean, come on, isn't that the whole point of your article,
01:03:52 is finding Mr. Right?
01:03:54 No, not for me, for other women.
01:03:57 You know, I'm helping them on their journey.
01:03:59 Aren't you worried that your readers are going to think
01:04:01 that there is no Mr. Right for them?
01:04:04 No.
01:04:05 I just want them to be cautious, right?
01:04:08 You mean cynical.
01:04:10 OK, you told me I don't have to worry about this,
01:04:12 that my readers are enjoying my take on Mr. Right.
01:04:15 Well, yeah, Charlotte, that's because you're a good writer.
01:04:18 You could literally write about dirt and anyone would read that.
01:04:20 Like, honestly, Liam is perfect for you.
01:04:22 Like, he's kind, he's single, he's a gentleman,
01:04:25 and he's so, so into you.
01:04:27 You don't know that.
01:04:28 I do, and you know what?
01:04:29 I think you're weighing more into him than you're letting on.
01:04:32 OK.
01:04:33 Like, honestly, why won't you give him a chance?
01:04:35 You've given everyone else a chance.
01:04:37 Come on, there was Mr. Basement, Mr. Businessman,
01:04:39 Mr. Adventure, Mr. Perfectionist.
01:04:42 Why not Mr. Coffee?
01:04:44 Because he's my friend, OK?
01:04:46 And you and Liam are the only real friends I have in this city.
01:04:50 And if I dated him...
01:04:52 ...it would ruin everything.
01:04:58 Like, Charlotte, I really feel like you're going to miss out on a real opportunity here.
01:05:05 I don't know.
01:05:08 I'll see you at work.
01:05:13 [Liam and Charlotte kiss]
01:05:15 So, we're slow dancing, right?
01:05:22 I'm gazing into her eyes.
01:05:24 It's 9,000 degrees, so I'm so sweaty and so nervous.
01:05:27 There's a spot up here.
01:05:28 I go for it, right?
01:05:30 I headbutt.
01:05:31 No.
01:05:32 I literally headbutt her.
01:05:33 It's not an exaggeration.
01:05:34 So bad.
01:05:35 That's bad.
01:05:36 I know.
01:05:37 I still think my first kiss was worse, but...
01:05:39 Yeah, put it in your article.
01:05:40 There you go.
01:05:41 Yeah.
01:05:42 I mean, I don't know.
01:05:43 I kind of feel like my readers are expecting me to be this, like, relationship expert.
01:05:48 But I'm not, obviously.
01:05:50 Yeah.
01:05:51 I don't know. I feel like...
01:05:54 I don't think anyone's expecting that of you.
01:05:56 I think the appeal of your article is relatability.
01:05:58 You're really good at coming across, like, super genuine.
01:06:00 Yeah.
01:06:01 Thanks.
01:06:02 And I think it'll give people hope.
01:06:03 Hope?
01:06:04 Yeah.
01:06:05 It's right here.
01:06:06 Hope. Hmm.
01:06:07 Hope for what?
01:06:12 For the fictitious happily ever after?
01:06:15 Fictitious?
01:06:16 My, oh my, you are a writer.
01:06:18 That's a good word.
01:06:19 Thank you.
01:06:20 Yeah.
01:06:21 I might have to push back on that no happily ever after thing.
01:06:26 I think that...
01:06:27 I don't know.
01:06:28 A lot of people I know, when they found their someone, they were...
01:06:30 Made them better.
01:06:32 Hmm.
01:06:33 Well, those are the lucky ones.
01:06:34 Because when my parents' relationship blew up, our whole family blew up, and...
01:06:40 Yeah.
01:06:41 None of us were better after that.
01:06:43 But...
01:06:44 Sorry.
01:06:46 I can think of one positive thing that came out of your parents' relationship.
01:06:51 Oh, yeah.
01:06:52 What's that?
01:06:53 Sit down.
01:06:55 I don't know if I made that obvious enough.
01:06:58 [laughs]
01:06:59 I know where that comes from, though.
01:07:06 Like, I know what you're...
01:07:07 I know what you're talking about.
01:07:09 My ex, um...
01:07:12 I really loved her.
01:07:15 Really, genuinely cared about her.
01:07:19 And...
01:07:21 Found out she was dating my best friend.
01:07:25 The exact same time she was dating me.
01:07:28 So...
01:07:29 Yeah.
01:07:32 That was my reaction.
01:07:33 It was hard.
01:07:36 It was really tough.
01:07:37 I was, uh...
01:07:38 Bitter.
01:07:39 I was really bitter for a long time.
01:07:41 Because that's not something you just, like...
01:07:43 Recover from.
01:07:45 You know?
01:07:46 It was really hard because...
01:07:49 I didn't feel like I was just...
01:07:53 Losing someone that I loved.
01:07:55 You know? I was...
01:07:56 Just losing my best friend.
01:07:58 Yeah.
01:08:00 Gosh, Liam, I'm sorry.
01:08:02 That... Their loss.
01:08:04 Yeah.
01:08:06 Yeah. It sucked.
01:08:08 But...
01:08:09 It was interesting because after the initial kind of...
01:08:13 You know, scar healed and the...
01:08:16 Resentment kind of went away...
01:08:19 I started remembering the...
01:08:21 The good stuff.
01:08:22 The good stuff.
01:08:23 Too.
01:08:24 And I started to retain the positive things from our relationship.
01:08:27 And not this kind of person I painted her to be in my head.
01:08:32 She was actually the one that...
01:08:36 Kind of pushed me to quit my job at the bank.
01:08:39 She knew how miserable I was there.
01:08:43 And she was always, you know, "Pursue your passions! You gotta pursue your passions!"
01:08:46 She was really big on that, so...
01:08:50 If she hadn't done that, I wouldn't be...
01:08:52 Spending my days in coffee shops doing what I love.
01:08:55 And...
01:08:56 I wouldn't have met you.
01:08:58 And gone on this incredibly...
01:09:03 Picturesque hike.
01:09:05 I know how to pick a spot.
01:09:07 You do!
01:09:08 It's pretty good.
01:09:09 You do!
01:09:10 Good choice.
01:09:11 My dad always said that real love was...
01:09:19 Liking who you were the most around that other person.
01:09:22 So yeah, by his definition...
01:09:26 I absolutely believe in love.
01:09:29 I should probably go.
01:09:36 Enchante.
01:09:40 Here we are.
01:09:44 Wow!
01:09:46 Beautiful.
01:09:47 A 15 minute hike and you can't even see the city anymore.
01:09:54 Wow, it's cool, right?
01:09:55 Yeah.
01:09:56 It really is crazy to think that like just beyond that mountain...
01:09:59 All this nature...
01:10:00 There's a city.
01:10:02 Right? With a hundred thousand dudes who all want to hate you so bad.
01:10:06 They want to contribute to the article! They're trying to do the right thing!
01:10:10 Lucky me!
01:10:11 Lucky you!
01:10:13 [laughing]
01:10:14 You talk about your dad a lot.
01:10:19 Are you guys still close?
01:10:21 Yeah, he passed away a couple years ago.
01:10:24 Liam, I'm so sorry.
01:10:28 You're good. You didn't know. You're fine.
01:10:30 Yeah.
01:10:32 I do miss him.
01:10:34 He was everything that I'd want to be as a man.
01:10:39 He was compassionate, he was kind, loved his kids, you know, his co-workers.
01:10:43 I liked him. He was good at his job.
01:10:45 I think the thing that kind of sticks with me the most is...
01:10:50 How much he loved my mom.
01:10:52 He was really clear on making her a priority and...
01:10:57 Yeah, she meant the world to him.
01:11:00 Well, he sounds wonderful.
01:11:07 [chuckles]
01:11:08 Just like you.
01:11:10 Thanks so much for taking all this time to show me around.
01:11:33 Oh, yeah. Absolutely.
01:11:34 It's finally starting to feel like home.
01:11:36 And I know you work a lot, so thanks.
01:11:39 Yeah, yeah. For sure.
01:11:40 No, it's actually been super fun to kind of show somebody else, you know, all this stuff for the first time.
01:11:45 It makes it new for me, you know? I appreciate it more.
01:11:48 Yeah, it's nice to see it from your perspective.
01:11:50 [chuckles]
01:11:51 Anyway, I'll see ya.
01:11:53 I'll see ya, yeah.
01:11:55 Charlotte, would you...
01:12:03 Would you want to go on a date with me next?
01:12:05 Uh...
01:12:07 Mmm...
01:12:09 Oh, you mean you want me to, like, eviscerate you in one of my articles?
01:12:12 [both laugh]
01:12:13 No, no. I mean, like, genuinely, would you want to go...
01:12:17 Do you want to go on a date with me?
01:12:20 Uh...
01:12:21 Like a real date.
01:12:22 I don't think that's a good idea.
01:12:26 Why not?
01:12:28 I mean, look, we're spending all this time with each other as it is, and, like...
01:12:33 I don't know. If there are real feelings here, I think it's not bad that...
01:12:37 I mean, how could you have feelings for me? You hardly know me.
01:12:39 Yeah, no, I just...
01:12:43 Yeah.
01:12:45 Uh, fair. I'd like to get to know you more.
01:12:48 Like, I get...
01:12:52 I look forward to the next time I'm gonna see you.
01:12:55 Um...
01:12:57 And I want to see you tomorrow, and the next day, and I just...
01:13:01 I'm saying a lot.
01:13:02 Look, I just... I say that because I mean it, and it's what I feel.
01:13:07 I can't.
01:13:10 Look, I know that your parents didn't have the best situation, and I cannot even begin to imagine...
01:13:17 What you've been through. Like, I'm not gonna pretend like I can. I can't.
01:13:22 But I don't think we should say no to the chance of something good just because something bad might happen.
01:13:29 The chance of what? I mean, for us to spend all this time dating just to find out that we were actually better off as friends?
01:13:35 Or, I don't know, until one of us gets bored?
01:13:38 I think you're thinking ahead a little too much.
01:13:40 Am I?
01:13:41 Yeah! Yes.
01:13:42 What about your last girlfriend?
01:13:43 What about my parents? You know, they just got sick of each other.
01:13:47 What about your parents?
01:13:49 Your dad is gone, and now your mom is all alone.
01:13:52 I mean, how can you guarantee that something like that won't happen to us?
01:13:55 I can't.
01:14:00 I can't. You're right. I can't guarantee that nothing bad will happen, but, like...
01:14:08 I don't think anyone should completely shut down on the idea of love just because life also happens.
01:14:18 And for me, the risk is worth it.
01:14:21 I've never needed a romantic relationship. And, frankly, I'm fine with the way things are.
01:14:29 Yeah. No. That's just the way it is.
01:14:34 Yeah. Yeah.
01:14:35 So...
01:14:40 See ya. Yeah.
01:14:44 Bye.

01:16:56 It was great to talk with you about it.
01:16:59 I wanted to return the favor with a book of my own.
01:17:03 This was one of my absolute favorites growing up, and it reminds me a lot of my own family.
01:17:08 I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
01:17:10 Liam.
01:17:12 P.S. If all you want is friendship, then that is more than enough for me.
01:17:17 Just as long as you're in my life.

01:17:54 This week, I went on a date with Mr. Almost Right.
01:18:20 Mr. Almost Right is kind and fun to talk to.
01:18:23 He listens to you and sends you notes about his favorite books.
01:18:27 He helps you feel at home in a new city and makes you laugh.
01:18:31 He makes you feel safe so you open up about personal things.
01:18:36 You share your fears and he listens.
01:18:39 So why, you may ask, is he not Mr. Right?
01:18:45 I don't know.
01:18:49 [music]
01:18:50 I don't know what to say, Charlotte.
01:19:04 I'm not so sure about this Mr. Almost Right.
01:19:10 Oh, okay.
01:19:15 I guess I can revise it and try to get something to the editors on time.
01:19:19 I mean, he seems pretty right to me.
01:19:22 Is there something you want to talk about?
01:19:27 I mean, the guy, Jimmy, that this article is supposed to be about.
01:19:32 I don't know, as I was writing, it kind of started turning out to be about someone else.
01:19:40 Hmm.
01:19:43 Can I suggest, after reading this, that you reevaluate your outlook on love?
01:19:50 Look, you work for one of the premier relationship sites on the internet.
01:19:56 And we do as an official stance, except that there are the proverbial Prince Charmings out there.
01:20:02 But after your spree of dud dates that you've written about, this one, this article,
01:20:12 it makes you sound extremely pessimistic.
01:20:15 Look, I think that it's best that we postpone the Mr. Right article for the week.
01:20:24 Give you some time.
01:20:26 Mm-hmm.
01:20:28 Is that okay?
01:20:29 Yeah. Yeah.
01:20:32 Charlotte.
01:20:37 Charlotte.
01:20:39 Hello?
01:20:42 [clicking]
01:20:44 This is Earth to Charlotte. Can you read me? Over.
01:20:47 You okay? Are you still mad about the fight?
01:20:57 I'm sorry. I do this thing where I try to help people and instead I end up just pushing them away.
01:21:04 And I don't want to push you away. You're my best friend.
01:21:09 You're my best friend too.
01:21:11 I probably needed to hear what you had to say, even though I didn't like it.
01:21:15 Oh, you were right.
01:21:18 I know. About what?
01:21:21 Liam, he asked me out the other night.
01:21:24 Stop. Oh my gosh, no, wait, this is perfect, Mr. Coffee.
01:21:28 No, no, this is not going to happen.
01:21:30 What?
01:21:31 So stop.
01:21:32 Kate, why not?
01:21:33 Because going out with those guys was work.
01:21:35 Going out with Liam would be not work.
01:21:40 Oh my gosh, you have feelings for him.
01:21:44 No.
01:21:45 Oh no, this is perfect because he actually has feelings for you too.
01:21:48 He has from like day one. It's been so obvious.
01:21:50 I don't want him to have feelings for me, okay?
01:21:52 Because then I'd lose a friend and a coffee shop.
01:21:55 And I'd have to see him every day.
01:21:57 It's just weird. I came to the city for this job.
01:21:59 So it would just be a horribly bad, terrible, terrible idea.
01:22:05 [sighs]
01:22:07 Okay, look, I know you just literally got done being mad at me.
01:22:12 But hear me out.
01:22:14 It kind of sounds like you're just afraid of getting hurt.
01:22:20 Which is totally okay. It's normal.
01:22:22 If you don't let yourself fall for someone, then yeah, you're not going to get hurt.
01:22:26 But then you also miss out on like one of the greatest parts of life.
01:22:32 Yeah, but how do you know it's worth it?
01:22:34 You don't. I mean, that's the whole point.
01:22:39 You gotta take a risk, Char.
01:22:41 But, I mean, hey, worst case scenario, let's say it all goes south.
01:22:46 You'll have your best friend there to bring you soup.
01:22:49 And to stay with you until it gets better.
01:22:52 I think you should talk to him.
01:23:01 Not like that. I just...
01:23:03 I don't want to lose our coffee discounts.
01:23:06 I did kind of snap at him.
01:23:10 [doorbell rings]
01:23:15 [doorbell rings]
01:23:18 Hey, Sarah.
01:23:20 Is it just you today?
01:23:22 Yeah.
01:23:24 Liam's working at a different location.
01:23:26 Oh.
01:23:27 You ladies want the usual?
01:23:31 Oh, uh, not today. But thanks.
01:23:33 Thanks.
01:23:34 [doorbell rings]
01:23:39 What was that about?
01:23:44 I told them you weren't here today.
01:23:46 Really? Why?
01:23:47 You know, it's part of the girl code.
01:23:49 Protect your friend from the jerk who blew them off.
01:23:52 You are aware I'm not a woman, right?
01:23:55 Close enough.
01:23:59 Man, I really thought there was something genuine there.
01:24:02 I guess my intuition's not as good as I thought.
01:24:06 What did she say?
01:24:09 She said she was afraid that I'd ruin it, which I...
01:24:12 I guess I kind of did.
01:24:15 Okay, look.
01:24:17 I'm going to give you some advice,
01:24:19 and then you can give me that raise that I've been asking about.
01:24:22 Please.
01:24:23 So the way I see it, you have two options.
01:24:26 Either move on, or just be her friend.
01:24:30 If you keep trying to be her friend,
01:24:32 but you're always hoping for more,
01:24:34 you're just going to end up hurting yourself or her.
01:24:37 Yeah, yeah.
01:24:41 I think you're right.
01:24:43 Now, about my raise...
01:24:46 Buy yourself something nice.
01:24:54 Okay.

01:27:31 Um, can I...
01:27:33 Okay, come on in.
01:27:35 Liam, I'm sorry.
01:27:41 I was so angry, and...
01:27:42 No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:27:44 It's... You were right, okay?
01:27:47 You are new here, and you have a huge, demanding job,
01:27:51 and you already have to wait
01:27:52 to, like, a thousand other guys that want to date you.
01:27:54 I should have known what you needed in that moment
01:27:56 was an actual friend,
01:27:58 and I'm sorry that I didn't realize that,
01:28:00 and I don't want to ruin what we have.
01:28:02 I really want you to know I really hate you here.
01:28:05 Hmm.
01:28:11 Charlotte.
01:28:12 I'm sorry.
01:28:13 I know it's a risk,
01:28:16 and it's worth it with you.
01:28:19 So, Liam...
01:28:25 Yeah?
01:28:26 Will you go on a date with me?
01:28:30 Please?
01:28:32 I would love that.
01:28:34 I would love that.
01:28:35 I would love that.
