00:00:59Hi, Charlotte Page, reporting for duty.
00:01:26Welcome.
00:01:27Ms. DeBeers asks you to join the writers in the conference room, just straight through
00:01:30the glass doors.
00:01:31Okay.
00:01:32Thank you.
00:01:33Okay.
00:01:34Well, let's circle back after lunch.
00:01:35Tell me how the phone call goes.
00:01:36All right.
00:01:37Thanks for taking care of that.
00:01:38Ah, Ms. Charlotte.
00:01:39Thank you for joining us.
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41The team is just finishing up.
00:01:42Your timing is perfect.
00:01:43So, have a seat and I will introduce you to everybody.
00:01:44All right, people.
00:01:45You have your attention again.
00:01:46This morning, fantastic, we accomplished a lot.
00:01:59Thank you for all of your contributions.
00:02:01To wrap things up here, I want to introduce you to Charlotte Page.
00:02:06Charlotte is going to be writing our new featured article, Mr. Right.
00:02:11Yeah, very excited.
00:02:13So as all of you know, Mr. Right is an idea that we've been tossing around for quite a
00:02:16while now, and it's finally time to get it off the ground.
00:02:19I mean, I just hope I can live up to the talent that's here.
00:02:24I'm sure you'll do just fine.
00:02:26Every Monday morning, we meet, we brainstorm all the articles for the coming week.
00:02:31And remember, part of the joy of writing is the journey of discovery of yourself and others.
00:02:40So take the journey.
00:02:41Yeah?
00:02:43Okay.
00:02:44You guys, thanks so much for your time.
00:02:46I think we're wrapped up for today.
00:02:47Okay?
00:02:48All right.
00:02:49So I want you to take some time to settle in today, meet your coworkers, but don't dawdle
00:02:53too much.
00:02:54And I will expect to see a final copy of your first article by next Friday.
00:03:00All right.
00:03:01Hey, I want to see that by two.
00:03:04All right.
00:03:05You got it.
00:03:06You okay?
00:03:38Hi.
00:03:39Hey there, yourself.
00:03:42So, you're new.
00:03:45I am.
00:03:46Well, my spot is way right here, so you and I are going to be good friends.
00:03:51That was easy.
00:03:52Yeah.
00:03:53I'm Lila.
00:03:54Charlotte.
00:03:55So, Mr. Right.
00:03:56Mr. Right.
00:03:57What is a Mr. Right?
00:03:58Right.
00:03:59And that is where I'm stumped.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:02So you write about dating.
00:04:04L'amour.
00:04:06But it sounds like you're single.
00:04:08Oh, yeah.
00:04:09Well, I mean, maybe that's not a bad thing, you know?
00:04:11Maybe you just need to immerse yourself into your writing.
00:04:13Like, for me, I write better when I'm out there living the thing.
00:04:16So, like Miss Weir said, take the journey.
00:04:20Or whatever it is she says.
00:04:21I never pay attention.
00:04:22Yeah.
00:04:23Don't tell her that.
00:04:24But, yeah, if you're writing about dating, then maybe you should just be dating a lot.
00:04:28Yeah.
00:04:29That is a good idea.
00:04:30See, I wouldn't even know where to start here.
00:04:32To, like, meet guys.
00:04:35Well, you have come to the wrong place.
00:04:37I can't even remember the last time I've been on a date.
00:04:40But maybe you could try the dating apps.
00:04:42You might have more success than I did.
00:04:43Yeah.
00:04:44I guess I can't avoid him forever, right?
00:04:46No, ma'am.
00:04:47So, I gotta pull out all the stops.
00:04:50Ooh, good attitude.
00:04:51I like that.
00:04:52Okay, but you'll have to help me with that whole thing.
00:04:53Because...
00:04:54Don't worry.
00:04:55I got you.
00:04:56I love living vicariously through people.
00:04:57Perfect.
00:04:58Well, I think a lot better when I have caffeine running through my veins, so...
00:05:01You wanna come with me downstairs and grab a latte?
00:05:03Yes.
00:05:04Really cute coffee place.
00:05:05Let's do it.
00:05:06Big fan.
00:05:07Cool.
00:05:08BFFs.
00:05:09Hey, how are you?
00:05:12Hello, hello.
00:05:15How was your weekend?
00:05:16Oh, did you go out with that, uh, the same guy again?
00:05:19He turned out to be a total jerk, so I dumped him on the side of the road.
00:05:23Literally.
00:05:25Nice.
00:05:26What about you?
00:05:27Um, I mean, you know, same, same old team.
00:05:30Oh, hi.
00:05:31I'm just, I'm just working.
00:05:32Oh, come on.
00:05:33There's only so much time you can spend at a coffee shop.
00:05:36You have to get out and do something fun at least once a week.
00:05:38I know, I know.
00:05:39You're right.
00:05:40I just, I'm just so close, you know?
00:05:42Yeah, but you have to promise me at least one night this week you will take a night off
00:05:47from even thinking about coffee.
00:05:49Ooh, not even thinking?
00:05:51No.
00:05:52One whole night?
00:05:53Can we try next week?
00:05:54You're so weird.
00:05:56Next month?
00:05:58Oh, this is the best coffee in town.
00:06:00Yeah, so dead serious.
00:06:02This place treats its coffee like an art.
00:06:05It's cute.
00:06:06Yeah.
00:06:08Good morning.
00:06:09What can I get for you today?
00:06:10Hi, I will get the lavender macchiato.
00:06:15Name?
00:06:16Charlotte.
00:06:17The usual for you, Lila?
00:06:19You know it.
00:06:22That'll be $3.75 for the macchiato and $4.25 for you, Lila.
00:06:25I got you.
00:06:26Are you sure?
00:06:27Yeah.
00:06:28Oh, thanks, Char.
00:06:29Thank you.
00:06:30It'll be a few minutes.
00:06:32You're the best, Sarah.
00:06:34So, you're new in town, you write for the hottest romance site, you have the coolest
00:06:39new friend, and your job is to find the perfect man.
00:06:43Ugh, yeah.
00:06:44That is like the actual definition of living the dream.
00:06:47Hmm, yeah.
00:06:48If, uh, the perfect man existed.
00:06:51Ugh.
00:06:53Yeah.
00:06:56Oh, no, I can, I can grab this one.
00:06:59Okay, uh, Fred's.
00:07:00Got a coffee for Fred.
00:07:01There you go.
00:07:02Lila.
00:07:03You.
00:07:04Hi, Liam.
00:07:05Hello.
00:07:06Good to see you.
00:07:07Yeah.
00:07:08And then one for Fred.
00:07:09Uh, sir, I, I think I got, sorry, I gotta.
00:07:11No, I don't have time for this.
00:07:12I've got a meeting to get to.
00:07:14Did he just abscond with my coffee?
00:07:16I have no idea what abscond means, but yeah, he's got a meeting to get to.
00:07:19He finessed a free cup of coffee from you, sir.
00:07:21Uh, Liam.
00:07:22Liam.
00:07:23Uh, what was it again?
00:07:24Sorry.
00:07:25Charlotte.
00:07:27Oh, the drink.
00:07:28Uh, lavender macchiato.
00:07:29Got it.
00:07:30Lavender macchiato.
00:07:31And, uh, double time, if you would.
00:07:33I have important meetings and things.
00:07:36So, are you new in the building?
00:07:37I feel like I know all the, all the business folk type people.
00:07:41Yeah, it's just my first day, so I am far from being an important business-y person.
00:07:47Come on.
00:07:48I'm sure you're doing great.
00:07:49Everyone has a first day, right?
00:07:51It's always tough.
00:07:53One lavender macchiato.
00:07:55It's actually one of my favorites, so good choice.
00:07:58For Charlotte.
00:07:59Mm-hmm.
00:08:00Not for him.
00:08:01Thank you very much.
00:08:02You're welcome.
00:08:03I'm gonna go tend to my business evening.
00:08:07Go and do it.
00:08:11Wow.
00:08:12That's good.
00:08:13Yeah, tell your friends.
00:08:16Have a good one.
00:08:17Great.
00:08:19Well, that was cute.
00:08:22Yeah, she was.
00:08:27Okay, here.
00:08:28So, this is the app.
00:08:29It's a little cheesy, but I mean, it's kind of fun.
00:08:31What's it called?
00:08:32Blender.
00:08:33Oh, gosh.
00:08:34With a name like that, how can it not be?
00:08:36I mean, you can always go old-fashioned and try to pick up a guy at the coffee shop.
00:08:39What?
00:08:40That still happens to people?
00:08:41Uh, you said Blender?
00:08:42Mm-hmm.
00:08:43B-L-U...
00:08:46Oh, you should come to my house tonight and help me build, like, a killer profile.
00:08:49Oh, my gosh.
00:08:50Since we're best friends.
00:08:51I was gonna buy myself over anyways.
00:08:52Perfect.
00:08:53I'll order takeout.
00:08:54Yeah.
00:08:55Oh, I know all the good food spots in town.
00:08:56Oh, my gosh.
00:08:57Listen to this Blender line from Alex.
00:09:00Hey, I value my breath, so I'd appreciate it if you'd stop taking it away.
00:09:04Oh.
00:09:05Oh, my gosh.
00:09:06There are so many better ways you could have written that.
00:09:08He's got a point there.
00:09:09You should really be more considerate.
00:09:10Me?
00:09:11Like, you could hand me the rest of the fried rice.
00:09:12Oh, you want the fried rice.
00:09:13I want the fried rice.
00:09:14It's okay.
00:09:15I'll give you the fried rice.
00:09:16Gimme, gimme.
00:09:17Thank you.
00:09:18Ugh.
00:09:19Oh, Jason says,
00:09:21Hey, girl.
00:09:23I don't normally compliment girls that I match with,
00:09:25but I gotta say, you've got great taste in men.
00:09:28Oh, my gosh.
00:09:30Where do they find this stuff?
00:09:32Well, you know, you've gotta scrape through a whole lot of garbage on these apps.
00:09:36Okay.
00:09:37Yeah.
00:09:38Alex, Eli, Jason.
00:09:40Right.
00:09:42Aren't any of these guys not cringeworthy?
00:09:45Oh, wait.
00:09:46What about that guy?
00:09:47He looks Paul.
00:09:48He looks kind of normal.
00:09:51Let's see.
00:09:53All right.
00:09:55Well, let's immerse.
00:09:57Yeah.
00:09:58Let's immerse.
00:10:02So at this point, I'm thinking, why not drop out?
00:10:05Why am I going into massive debt for a medical degree that my dad wants
00:10:10when I could be making millions pro-gaming?
00:10:16I mean, I'm not a pro yet, but I wouldn't have been a doctor yet either.
00:10:20So it's just gonna take a little bit more time investing.
00:10:24Yeah.
00:10:25So, I mean, if you're good at it and you can make money, why not?
00:10:29Yeah.
00:10:30Yeah, exactly.
00:10:31Yeah.
00:10:32So currently, stage one, you have a place where you can practice these video games?
00:10:37Yeah, my mom's place.
00:10:38Totally free.
00:10:39No rent.
00:10:40It's really nice.
00:11:09Yeah.
00:11:22Thank you.
00:11:26I met a celebrity today.
00:11:27This is great.
00:11:35Don't tell me.
00:11:37It's Fred, right?
00:11:38Fred.
00:11:39Coffee shop.
00:11:40Yeah.
00:11:41Yeah.
00:11:42Liam.
00:11:43Yeah.
00:11:44I did not know this is what the bourgeois business types did in their free time when they're
00:11:48not doing coffee.
00:11:49This is good.
00:11:50Yeah.
00:11:51William Fencer.
00:11:52He reads 50 books a year, and he is a billionaire, so.
00:11:55There you go.
00:11:56But my favorite author just released their new book, so I had to get my hands on it.
00:12:00Oh, really?
00:12:01Yeah.
00:12:02What book is it?
00:12:03Airship.
00:12:04Man.
00:12:05Yeah, he's amazing.
00:12:06I have all of his books.
00:12:07Yeah, to be honest, I would not have pegged you as an avid sci-fi fan.
00:12:11Yeah.
00:12:12I might have to steal this from you at some point.
00:12:14Totally.
00:12:15But if you steal, steal it, you know, I'm going to have to hunt you down.
00:12:19You know where to find me.
00:12:21What's in your bag?
00:12:22Oh, this is some of that mid-century Russian poetry.
00:12:26Oh.
00:12:27Action, you know.
00:12:28Nice.
00:12:29Yeah, I'm a big fan of that.
00:12:30It's magazines.
00:12:31It's literally just magazines from my coffee shop.
00:12:33I'm not that classy.
00:12:34Yeah.
00:12:35I was going to ask, what do you do at the building?
00:12:37Oh, I just started writing for Romantique.
00:12:40Really?
00:12:41How do you like that so far?
00:12:42Oh, I love it.
00:12:43You know, I've wanted to be a writer since I was a kid, so it's like a dream job.
00:12:46So I'm super excited, but also really nervous because I really want to get things right
00:12:51and not mess anything up.
00:12:53Well, for sure, yeah.
00:12:55It's like a huge, first of all, congrats.
00:12:57Yeah, but that's a big step.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:13:00New job.
00:13:01Well, I mean, if you're as good at that as you are at talking to random dudes at a bookstore,
00:13:06I think you're going to crush it.
00:13:08You're going to do great.
00:13:09Thank you.
00:13:10Yeah.
00:13:11And I'll be serving coffee to you all the way, okay?
00:13:14Don't forget the little people.
00:13:32Thank you.
00:13:51Hi.
00:13:52Can I just vent for a sec?
00:13:54Oh, heavens.
00:13:56Give me the tea.
00:13:57So, I've been here for what?
00:13:58A little over a week?
00:13:59A little over a week.
00:14:00I've been on three Blender dates, and I've got nothing to write about.
00:14:04Oh.
00:14:05Marcus was a bust.
00:14:06Oh, Marcus.
00:14:07Yeah, he just sat there and, like, primped his hair in the restaurant window the entire time.
00:14:12Andrew was 30 minutes late and also on his phone the entire time.
00:14:18No.
00:14:19No.
00:14:20Who else was there?
00:14:21Oh, Paul.
00:14:22Oh, Paul.
00:14:23You said you had fun with Paul?
00:14:24I did.
00:14:25Yeah.
00:14:26Paul, he wasn't a bust.
00:14:27Okay.
00:14:28He was more like Mr. Basement, not Mr. Right.
00:14:31Stop it.
00:14:32No.
00:14:33But, I mean, he was fun.
00:14:34Oh, my gosh.
00:14:35And has high aspirations, knows what he wants.
00:14:38Yeah, it's just not what I want.
00:14:41Oh.
00:14:42Yeah, I don't really know how to turn any of these into an article.
00:14:45Mm, oof.
00:14:47Big oof.
00:14:48Well, I'll tell you what.
00:14:49Why don't you take a break from Mr. Right and come help me with my article tonight?
00:14:55Yes.
00:14:56Yes?
00:14:57Is this supposed to be the date for Romantic's restaurant with the U.S.?
00:15:00Stop it.
00:15:01Stop it.
00:15:02Where are we eating?
00:15:03Pazzo's just down the street.
00:15:04Italian plates.
00:15:05Yeah.
00:15:067 p.m.
00:15:07Sounds good.
00:15:08Okay.
00:15:09Sweet.
00:15:10Maybe I'll have a stroke of inspiration by the end of the day.
00:15:12Yeah.
00:15:13You're so captive.
00:15:14All right.
00:15:15Back to work.
00:15:16Okay.
00:15:17Okay.
00:15:19Mm.
00:15:42Oh, the restaurant.
00:15:45Pick up, pick up.
00:15:49Hi, Lila.
00:15:50Yes, I'm late.
00:15:51I'm just leaving the office.
00:15:52Yeah, I'll see you in a bit.
00:15:53Hey, hold the elevator.
00:15:57Oh!
00:15:58Hey.
00:15:59I am so sorry.
00:16:01It's no problem.
00:16:02Oh.
00:16:03I, uh, I'm always happy to find a beautiful woman in my arms.
00:16:07Does this happen to you a lot?
00:16:09No.
00:16:10Not as often as I'd like.
00:16:12Oh.
00:16:13Oh, my gosh, your phone.
00:16:15Yes.
00:16:16Uh, is it all right?
00:16:18Oh, shoot.
00:16:19Oh, what's wrong?
00:16:21Well, it looks like when it fell, it knocked your number right out.
00:16:24So if you can just add it back in here.
00:16:27I don't know.
00:16:28I'm not one to just hand out my number.
00:16:30I mean, you could be a complete scoundrel after all.
00:16:33Scoundrel?
00:16:34Well, maybe.
00:16:36But I have already held you in my arms and used my best line on you, so...
00:16:40Your best line?
00:16:42I don't even know your name.
00:16:44That's easy to fix.
00:16:45Thomas.
00:16:46I work on the seventh floor.
00:16:47Christianson and Associates.
00:16:49Charlotte.
00:16:50There you go.
00:16:51Now we're no longer strangers.
00:16:53We can fix this with your number, and I can thank you by taking you out sometime.
00:16:57All right.
00:16:59I guess it wouldn't hurt.
00:17:05I look forward to you running into me again.
00:17:08All right.
00:17:18Okay, this place is definitely hitting five stars.
00:17:20I tell you, if that chickadee parm was a man, I would be having him over, whining and dining right now.
00:17:25Maybe even showing my dead bug collection.
00:17:28Literally, I meant that very literally.
00:17:29Cute, yeah.
00:17:31Yes, this was just what I needed.
00:17:33Hey, thanks so much for this.
00:17:36It's so nice to have a girlfriend to, like, do things with and go to dinner, and...
00:17:40I don't know, I've been missing that since I moved here.
00:17:43Oh.
00:17:44Yeah, well, I mean, I get it, you know.
00:17:46We moved around a lot growing up, and I've been there.
00:17:50I know what it's like moving to a new place, not having friends, not knowing anyone, so...
00:17:54That must have been hard.
00:17:56I mean, yeah, but it was okay, you know?
00:17:59It taught me to be really outgoing and, um...
00:18:03Vivacious.
00:18:05Which, you know, works out really well when you're a kid making friends with other kids.
00:18:07Yeah.
00:18:08But it did not translate very well into adulthood.
00:18:11I think some people find me a bit...
00:18:13I don't know.
00:18:14A bit much.
00:18:16No.
00:18:17You?
00:18:18I don't see it.
00:18:20Rude, actually.
00:18:21Rude-ass.
00:18:22No, I actually like it.
00:18:23I do.
00:18:24I find you...
00:18:26Refreshing.
00:18:27Mm-hmm.
00:18:28Really.
00:18:29Well, we'll see how long that lasts, you know?
00:18:31The novelty of me will wear off.
00:18:34Okay.
00:18:35I know, I know you said, no work, Mr. Right talk, but...
00:18:39I have to tell you, I think fate has provided a miracle.
00:18:44Oh, found yourself a little something-something.
00:18:48I did, I did.
00:18:49I'm on my way out of the building tonight.
00:18:51Yeah, I quite literally fell into the arms of, I don't know, the perfect man.
00:18:55Oh, do tell.
00:18:56Well, perfect for the article, I mean.
00:18:58Oh, okay.
00:18:59Yeah.
00:19:00Yeah, his name is Thomas, and he works in the law firm at our building.
00:19:04So, let's hope that he's as intriguing as he seems.
00:19:07Sounds like fate.
00:19:08Yeah, it's perfect, because I have one day after to write the article, get it submitted on time, and hallelujah.
00:19:14So, how are we feeling, dessert?
00:19:16Yes.
00:19:17Okay.
00:19:18Garçon!
00:19:19That's a woman.
00:19:20Um, can we see the dessert menu, please?
00:19:23Thank you.
00:19:24Oh, she's going to spit on my cheesecake.
00:19:27Hey.
00:19:28Good morning.
00:19:29Good morning.
00:19:30I'm excited to see that you are becoming one of the regulars.
00:19:33Oh, what constitutes someone becoming a regular?
00:19:36Usually about a month, but I'm going to give you a free handout, because I messed your order up so bad last time.
00:19:41I am status here now.
00:19:43You do have status here now.
00:19:45I brought you something.
00:19:48It's my favorite.
00:19:49Oh, this is the same guy, same author, right?
00:19:51Yeah.
00:19:52Okay, yeah, no, no, I've heard about this.
00:19:53Heard good stuff.
00:19:54Thank you.
00:19:55Mm-hmm.
00:19:56That's very nice.
00:19:57Oh, how are you getting moved in?
00:19:58You can ask me next week, when I actually have time to open my boxes.
00:20:02I know, moving's the worst.
00:20:04I was going to ask, um, you know, since you're new in town, I thought maybe tonight I could show you around?
00:20:10Oh, yeah, I would love to see the city.
00:20:13Thank you.
00:20:14Yeah?
00:20:15But I actually have a date tonight, and my career kind of depends on this one.
00:20:21For my articles, I mean.
00:20:23Oh, okay, right.
00:20:26Um, what about Saturday?
00:20:29Or are you working?
00:20:30Oh, yeah, no, for sure.
00:20:33Uh, no, yes, I'm not working this Saturday.
00:20:37Saturday works great.
00:20:38Saturday's awesome.
00:20:39Okay, let me give you my number.
00:20:41Okay.
00:20:42And we can plan a time.
00:20:45Okay.
00:20:46Sounds good.
00:20:47Here you go.
00:20:48Thanks.
00:20:49I'll see you.
00:20:51Okay.
00:20:55You got her number.
00:20:57Smooth.
00:21:00Is all you do here just be a stop on my conversations?
00:21:03What else am I supposed to do while I'm here all day?
00:21:10Impressive!
00:21:12I've been on quite a few golf courses.
00:21:14Yeah, so this is your sport.
00:21:17When you do law for a living and have to wear a tie all day,
00:21:20you find yourself on quite a few golf courses,
00:21:24with men twice your age schmoozing.
00:21:27Oh, yeah.
00:21:28It's all just part of the job.
00:21:29I see.
00:21:30But do you actually like golfing?
00:21:33Yeah, well, now I just find it relaxing.
00:21:38Okay.
00:21:39It's harder than it looks.
00:21:41Try loosening up your grip a little bit.
00:21:43Okay.
00:21:44Alright.
00:21:45You got this.
00:21:46Okay.
00:21:47Okay, here.
00:21:48I'm going to try to help a little bit here.
00:21:50So try widening your stance a little bit.
00:21:52Shoulder width apart.
00:21:53Oh, hi.
00:21:54Alright.
00:21:55Ready?
00:21:56Okay.
00:21:57Okay, go for it.
00:21:59There you go.
00:22:00Oh.
00:22:01That was a little bit better.
00:22:02Not bad.
00:22:03You like that?
00:22:04Yeah.
00:22:05So what about you?
00:22:06You said you're new to the city.
00:22:07Yeah, I moved here about a month ago.
00:22:09I got an in-house job working for Romantique.
00:22:12Romantique.
00:22:14That makes you a relationship expert.
00:22:17Hardly.
00:22:18Wow, I'm in way in over my head.
00:22:20Please.
00:22:22Alright, you ready?
00:22:23Yeah.
00:22:29Did you see that?
00:22:30Yes.
00:22:31Okay.
00:22:32So good.
00:22:33Well done.
00:22:34Take notes.
00:22:35Wow.
00:22:42Thanks for today.
00:22:43I never realized how hard it is to actually hit a golf ball before, but I had fun.
00:22:49Yeah, it's got its tricks to it.
00:22:50I had fun too.
00:22:51I really enjoyed talking with you.
00:22:55Oh, sorry.
00:22:58So, maybe I can come in with you.
00:23:00Help you get settled in.
00:23:02Oh, I'm a little bold for a first date, don't you think?
00:23:08I already held you in my arms.
00:23:10Remember the elevator?
00:23:11Oh, yes.
00:23:12I remember.
00:23:14Look, I don't kiss guys on first dates, let alone invite them up to my apartment for the night.
00:23:20So...
00:23:21Come on, Char.
00:23:22I thought we hit it off today.
00:23:23We did.
00:23:24But that doesn't mean...
00:23:28Wow.
00:23:29Thank you, Thomas, for the date.
00:23:37Okay.
00:23:43Thanks.
00:23:52So, let's talk about Mr. Right.
00:23:55If a guy's got drive and a sense of duty towards what he does for a living, that can be super attractive.
00:24:03But that doesn't mean Mr. Elevator, Mr. Legal.
00:24:09No.
00:24:10Mr. Business.
00:24:12That doesn't mean Mr. Business is going to be Mr. Right.
00:24:17Because if he's not going to respect you, then he's not even worth the cheap polyester his suit's made out of.
00:24:23I went on a date with Mr. Business, and here's what happened.
00:24:38Hmm.
00:24:42I like it.
00:24:43It's got spunk.
00:24:46You know, the last person that tried to write for Mr. Right?
00:24:49They weren't willing to hit the hard truths like this.
00:24:52Look, you've already proven to me that you deserve this job.
00:24:56So, what's next?
00:24:59Well, after Mr. Business, I was thinking Mr. Boy or Mr. Basement.
00:25:05I haven't really decided on a name yet, but, yeah.
00:25:08I like it. I do.
00:25:10Keep up the good work.
00:25:12Okay.
00:25:13Alright. Let's see what happens next week.
00:25:19Um, Charlotte, I just heard from the editors about your article.
00:25:23They loved it.
00:25:24Yeah, they said it was fire.
00:25:26Thanks, girl.
00:25:27Yeah.
00:25:28Yeah, Ms. Weir liked it too. What a relief.
00:25:30Yeah, and also, that Mr. Business.
00:25:32Okay, what a real piece of work.
00:25:33Who just goes in for the kiss like that?
00:25:35I know, right?
00:25:36Yeah.
00:25:37Yeah, definitely not Mr. Right material.
00:25:39Yeah, well, it's okay.
00:25:40We can add him to the pile of dud dates,
00:25:42which, it's sounding like it's not a bad thing.
00:25:44Yeah, I guess not.
00:25:46No more stress about having to find out who is Mr. Right, right?
00:25:50Which begs the question, what is Mr. Right to Charlotte?
00:25:55To me?
00:25:56Yeah.
00:25:57Oh, tall, dark, and handsome.
00:26:01No, but really.
00:26:03I don't think he exists, actually.
00:26:06Seriously?
00:26:09Oh, come on. I know lots of great relationships.
00:26:12Yeah, well, great relationships end in nasty divorce all the time,
00:26:17so how can you go from loving someone and then totally despising them?
00:26:20I may not be able to tell you who is Mr. Right,
00:26:23but I can definitely tell you what Mr. Wrong is.
00:26:26Maybe that's what my readers need to be reading.
00:26:29Hmm.
00:26:33Who's that?
00:26:35Uh, Liam from the coffee shop.
00:26:38Yeah, he's going to show me around town tomorrow.
00:26:41Oh, really?
00:26:44Okay, he's a friend.
00:26:46Yeah, he's a friend.
00:26:50Okay, I know it doesn't look like a whole lot,
00:26:52but this is absolutely best place in town.
00:26:54Absolutely best place in town, hands down.
00:26:57Really?
00:26:58Yeah.
00:26:59What makes it so special?
00:27:01Well, me and my dad used to come here and play catch with my brother
00:27:04and, you know, just kind of hang out.
00:27:06But that is not why it's the best place in town.
00:27:08That is.
00:27:11A bakery?
00:27:12That's Melvin's Pastry Kitchen.
00:27:14Actually, it's more of a confectionery, really.
00:27:17It's the best confections in the state and probably the whole country.
00:27:21Wow.
00:27:22That is a very big claim, sir.
00:27:25Are you ready to back it up?
00:27:27Oh, yeah.
00:27:28I can back it up.
00:27:29Okay.
00:27:30After you.
00:27:31Gonna blow your mind.
00:27:35Hmm.
00:27:36Rose petal cream tart.
00:27:38Could be good.
00:27:39Maybe, yeah.
00:27:40I'm going to go with the OG, probably.
00:27:42It's the chocolate cake donut.
00:27:44It's really good.
00:27:45You should try something new.
00:27:46I tried something new once,
00:27:48and it was the worst experience of my life.
00:27:50Really?
00:27:51I vow to never do it again.
00:27:53Come on.
00:27:56Okay, yeah.
00:27:57You know what?
00:27:58I'll take it under advisement.
00:27:59No, sir.
00:28:00Sir.
00:28:01You know what you want?
00:28:02I do.
00:28:03Okay.
00:28:14Oh, wow.
00:28:15This is so good.
00:28:16I told you.
00:28:17I know what I'm talking about.
00:28:20How is your classic donut?
00:28:22Okay, first of all, how dare you?
00:28:24It's just square.
00:28:25This is the opposite of a classic donut.
00:28:27It's basic.
00:28:28OG donuts around.
00:28:29This is not that.
00:28:30It's maple.
00:28:31Come on.
00:28:32You're shaking it up.
00:28:33Oh, um,
00:28:34I thought I'd give you the walking tour.
00:28:36I forgot.
00:28:37Walking tour?
00:28:38Yeah.
00:28:39Yeah, I told you I'd show you the whole city.
00:28:41Okay.
00:28:42Okay, come on.
00:28:43Here we go.
00:28:44So, in 1968,
00:28:46City Hall was settled.
00:28:48Our proud little town is more than it seems.
00:29:00Finally.
00:29:02Canela's.
00:29:04Let me guess.
00:29:05The best pizza place in the city.
00:29:07Oh, no.
00:29:08It's not even the best pizza place on the street.
00:29:10But everyone comes here at least once, so.
00:29:12Why?
00:29:13Um, I think it's got a certain
00:29:15je ne sais quoi.
00:29:16Oh.
00:29:17You gotta try it.
00:29:18Come on.
00:29:19Okay.
00:29:24I told you.
00:29:25It's like eating really good cardboard, right?
00:29:27It's nice.
00:29:28Mmm, mmm.
00:29:29Oh, man.
00:29:30On that note, um, I am
00:29:31about to run really quick.
00:29:33I'll be right back.
00:29:34Okay, have fun.
00:29:35I will.
00:29:36Most mediocre pizza in the city.
00:29:38I told you.
00:29:48Hey, there.
00:29:49So, you, uh,
00:29:50ever been to
00:29:52this fine dining establishment before?
00:29:55I have not.
00:29:56I just moved here,
00:29:57so my friend is showing me the sights.
00:29:59Nice.
00:30:00Your friend?
00:30:01Yeah.
00:30:02That's great.
00:30:03I'll be your friend till he gets back.
00:30:04How about that?
00:30:05Okay.
00:30:06I'm Max, by the way.
00:30:07Um, Charlotte.
00:30:08Great name.
00:30:09I love that.
00:30:10Thank you.
00:30:11Yeah, City's...
00:30:13City's great.
00:30:15But,
00:30:16I mean, if you're new in town,
00:30:18you have to check out the local outdoors soon.
00:30:20Oh, yeah?
00:30:21Yeah, less than, like,
00:30:22an hour outside the city.
00:30:23You got rock climbing.
00:30:24You got the best rappelling.
00:30:26You got base jumping.
00:30:28Impressive.
00:30:29You gotta check it out.
00:30:30It's crazy.
00:30:31Maybe I could
00:30:33take you sometime
00:30:34out to the cliffs.
00:30:37Hmm.
00:30:39A little brazen.
00:30:41Definitely presumptuous.
00:30:43You gotta check it out.
00:30:44Could be fun.
00:30:46And would definitely make for an interesting article.
00:30:49Base jumping.
00:30:51I wonder how dangerous that is.
00:30:54What would I call him?
00:30:57Mr. Adrenaline Junkie?
00:30:59No.
00:31:00Mr. Outdoors?
00:31:02Maybe...
00:31:03Mr. Adventure?
00:31:06So, it's a date?
00:31:09Hmm.
00:31:11All right.
00:31:12All right.
00:31:13Let's go have an adventure.
00:31:15Let's do it. Here.
00:31:17Throw your number in that bad boy.
00:31:18Okay.
00:31:19Be careful.
00:31:20It's fragile.
00:31:21Yeah.
00:31:26All right.
00:31:27Let's see if this is a real number.
00:31:29Hmm.
00:31:31Yeah.
00:31:32Yeah, I think so.
00:31:34All right, well,
00:31:36I'll call you then.
00:31:38And, uh,
00:31:39we can go hit those mountains.
00:31:40Make a great time.
00:31:41Yeah, all right.
00:31:42Yeah.
00:31:44Hey, hi.
00:31:45What's up?
00:31:46Hey, um, I'm actually out.
00:31:47Could I please get a refill from you?
00:31:50Not an employee.
00:31:51I was actually sitting there.
00:31:52Oh, this is...
00:31:53Yeah, yeah.
00:31:54Oh, gotcha.
00:31:55You're the fr...
00:31:56No, I like it.
00:31:57Oh, you're good, man.
00:31:58Appreciate ya.
00:31:59Ow.
00:32:03Hmm.
00:32:05So, he seems fun.
00:32:06Yeah.
00:32:07You guys, you guys friends?
00:32:08Is he a friend?
00:32:09No.
00:32:10He literally just sat here
00:32:11and started talking to me about rock climbing.
00:32:14Wow.
00:32:15Yeah.
00:32:16That's so...
00:32:17That's cool.
00:32:18Yeah, yeah.
00:32:19He asked...
00:32:20I'm gonna go with him.
00:32:21Really?
00:32:22Mm-hmm.
00:32:23It could be good for my articles, I think.
00:32:24Oh, do you write about, like, extreme...
00:32:26extreme sports?
00:32:27Mm, dating.
00:32:28Ooh.
00:32:29There you go.
00:32:30Um...
00:32:31Oh, I almost forgot.
00:32:32Mm-hmm.
00:32:34Time to make your mark on history.
00:32:36Um, you mean deface
00:32:38the city's most popular pizza joint?
00:32:40Yeah, because as you can see,
00:32:41you're definitely the first one that's gonna do it.
00:32:43Yeah.
00:32:44Obviously.
00:32:45You're a trailblazer.
00:32:46No, um, it's kind of a rite of passage
00:32:48for cannellas.
00:32:50You can see mine right there.
00:32:52Aw, cute.
00:32:53Okay.
00:33:00Yeah, Lawrence,
00:33:01I really like the direction you're headed on that.
00:33:03Let's go there.
00:33:04So, unless there's anything else...
00:33:08Anyone?
00:33:09All right.
00:33:10Let's get to it, shall we?
00:33:12Have a good one.
00:33:21Well, I hear that there are tons of men
00:33:24lined up for Charlotte.
00:33:25Oh, please.
00:33:26I-I'm just good at meeting people, okay?
00:33:28Let's put it that way.
00:33:29Okay.
00:33:30Hey, that would be a great quality
00:33:32for a relationship writer.
00:33:34Hmm, weird.
00:33:35Um, we should go downstairs
00:33:37and get a coffee.
00:33:38Also, I feel like you could probably
00:33:39use the extra energy
00:33:40considering you're gonna be doing
00:33:41a lot of research about...
00:33:43What was it?
00:33:44Face jumping?
00:33:45Was it?
00:33:46Yeah.
00:33:47Don't worry, you won't get hurt.
00:33:48Let's go.
00:33:49Coffee?
00:33:50Yes.
00:33:53Oh.
00:33:54I got this one.
00:33:56Hey, Liam.
00:33:57Hello.
00:33:58How's it going?
00:33:59Good.
00:34:00Hey, congrats on the second article.
00:34:01Oh, thank you.
00:34:02That's great.
00:34:03Who's the next lucky guy?
00:34:04This week is Mr. Wikipedia.
00:34:06And next week is Mr. Adventure.
00:34:08Wow.
00:34:09Yeah, come on.
00:34:10It says Mr. Right
00:34:11like jumping off a cliff.
00:34:12Mm-hmm.
00:34:13Sounds dangerous.
00:34:14I hope not.
00:34:15He just gets the usual?
00:34:17Yes, please.
00:34:18Hmm.
00:34:19Frap for me?
00:34:21You got it.
00:34:24Okay, what was that?
00:34:26What was what?
00:34:28Liam?
00:34:29Oh, my.
00:34:30Yeah, Liam.
00:34:31That was nothing.
00:34:32Uh-huh, yeah, sure.
00:34:33Come on, don't give me that.
00:34:34You know I know you better than that.
00:34:35And I saw the look.
00:34:36What?
00:34:37No way.
00:34:38Yeah, but...
00:34:39Oh, my.
00:34:40Oh, come on.
00:34:41There was no look.
00:34:42All right, one lavender macchiato
00:34:43and one frappuccino.
00:34:45Thank you.
00:34:46Oh, thanks, Liam.
00:34:47You're welcome.
00:34:48Okay, busy, busy day.
00:34:49Those bases won't jump themselves.
00:34:51Hey, seriously, be careful, okay?
00:34:53Don't jump off anything too high.
00:34:54Okay, don't worry about me.
00:35:00Good afternoon, Miss Page.
00:35:01I'm Dr. Bailey.
00:35:03I hear you've taken quite a tumble.
00:35:05Yeah.
00:35:07Rock climbing.
00:35:08Yeah, that explains it.
00:35:11You seem like you've had better days.
00:35:13It's taken quite the fall.
00:35:16Yeah, I was wearing a helmet, though.
00:35:18My arm is what really hurts.
00:35:21It's a good thing your friend brought you in when he did.
00:35:24Yeah, only after he spent an hour
00:35:26collecting his equipment
00:35:27and chatting with his bros.
00:35:29But hey, at least he was first-aid certified, right?
00:35:32I owe this to those skills.
00:35:38Well, let's remove whatever this is
00:35:42because it's not doing anything
00:35:43and we'll check out your arm.
00:35:45Yeah.
00:35:48Well, we don't have to amputate it, which is good.
00:35:50Maybe.
00:35:51We'll see.
00:35:53Miss Page, what are you still doing here?
00:35:56Oh, I'm just waiting for my ride.
00:35:58I examined you quite a while ago.
00:36:00Yeah, well, I didn't realize my phone
00:36:02was in my pocket when I fell,
00:36:04so this took a much harder hit than my arm.
00:36:06Well, still, you shouldn't be alone.
00:36:08Those painkillers are no joke.
00:36:10Oh, no.
00:36:11At my friend's house,
00:36:12they have the best painkillers in town.
00:36:14Oh, really?
00:36:15Yeah.
00:36:16Oh, that's good.
00:36:17Maybe.
00:36:18We'll see.
00:36:22My friend's coming.
00:36:23I texted him and they responded, I think.
00:36:25But I'll be fine.
00:36:26Well, still, I think I'll wait here with you.
00:36:28No, really, you don't have to worry about me.
00:36:30No, no, it's no problem.
00:36:31I'm just on my way home.
00:36:32It's no trouble.
00:36:34Oh, thanks.
00:36:36So, rock climbing, huh?
00:36:38It's a hobby?
00:36:40No, and definitely never will be.
00:36:43It was a first date and, coincidentally, a last.
00:36:46It's memorable.
00:36:47Yeah.
00:36:48I mean, it was fun to try something new, I guess,
00:36:51but maybe next time not something so...
00:36:53Like trust fall with a stranger?
00:36:55Yeah, from 15 feet in the air.
00:36:57I think he just forgot I was even there.
00:37:00What a real dud.
00:37:03Yep.
00:37:07Well, if you like trying new things,
00:37:09and certainly less risking,
00:37:11maybe you'd be interested in cooking dinner with me at my place?
00:37:16I don't mean to brag, but I can make a mean taco.
00:37:20Oh.
00:37:22Well, you're not going to say, like, you're a professional chef or something, right?
00:37:25No, no, definitely not.
00:37:27I've just never been asked out by my doctor before.
00:37:30Oh, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
00:37:33Do you think I could eat tacos with one hand?
00:37:36I think you have a pretty good chance of doing that, yeah.
00:37:39All right.
00:37:40Sounds nice.
00:37:41Okay.
00:37:42Let me give you my number.
00:37:45Second thought, could I have your number?
00:37:47Yeah.
00:37:48I'll put it in just so you know it's real.
00:37:50What?
00:37:51Um, so what do I call you?
00:37:53Um, Dr. Bailey, Doc Bailey.
00:37:56My first name is Jared.
00:37:57Okay.
00:37:58Dr. Jared.
00:37:59I'm Charlotte.
00:38:00Charlotte.
00:38:02Charlotte.
00:38:03Oh, that's my ride.
00:38:05Um, well, thanks so much, Dr. Jared.
00:38:09I look forward to a much safer date.
00:38:11Oh, yeah.
00:38:12Oh.
00:38:13Oh.
00:38:14Sorry.
00:38:15I'll text you in a couple days, yeah.
00:38:16Okay.
00:38:19So, thankfully, my arm is only a buckle fracture.
00:38:24But my whole side is one giant bruise.
00:38:26Oh, and I have a mild concussion.
00:38:29I mean, did he push you off the cliff?
00:38:32Like, what happened?
00:38:33No.
00:38:34Oh, he was just careless.
00:38:36I'd say that's a little bit more than just careless.
00:38:39I should have known better.
00:38:43Oh, and I've decided that vigorous sports are not really my thing.
00:38:47But thanks for coming to get me.
00:38:48Oh, different.
00:38:49My phone is, like, super smashed, and I didn't even know who I was texting.
00:38:53I know it's your day off, so.
00:38:56Oh, no, no, please.
00:38:58Don't worry about it.
00:38:59I've got your back.
00:39:00It's an okay reason to text.
00:39:03Actually, I am, uh...
00:39:05I broke my arm one time.
00:39:07Story's not as cool as yours, but I was, uh...
00:39:10Yeah, I was 13.
00:39:12I was climbing trees with my brother, and I just kept going higher and higher,
00:39:16and then I just dropped, and I woke up.
00:39:20And my arm was in a cast, so...
00:39:26I'm glad you're okay.
00:39:40Hi, love.
00:39:41What are you doing here?
00:39:43Um, you SOS'd me.
00:39:45Of course I'm gonna be here.
00:39:46Also, your texts don't really make a whole lot of sense.
00:39:48Oh, my gosh! What happened to your wrist?
00:39:50Leah!
00:39:51What? No.
00:39:54Like I said, this soup is a cure for everything.
00:39:57Breakups, illnesses, bodily harm, you name it.
00:40:02You'll see.
00:40:03Thanks.
00:40:04You'll see.
00:40:05Oh, sorry. I'm so sorry.
00:40:08It's fine.
00:40:10But hey, at least you have some great content for your article.
00:40:13Yeah.
00:40:14Enough for the readers to be satisfied, I think.
00:40:16Oh, come on.
00:40:17The stuff you've been producing lately has been so good.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:21I don't know.
00:40:23Come on, you're a great writer.
00:40:25You're great at meeting people, and you're really good at dating.
00:40:28That's like a win-win-win.
00:40:31No, I do love meeting people.
00:40:34But I want to be authentic in what I'm writing about.
00:40:38And I just, I don't think I really believe in the whole
00:40:42Mr. Right, happily ever after thing.
00:40:46Kind of disingenuous.
00:40:49See, I don't know.
00:40:52I believe that there's a right person for everyone.
00:40:55You know, like my parents have been married for, what, 30 years?
00:40:59And with each year that passes,
00:41:01they seem to fall in love with each other even more, you know?
00:41:05I don't know, I want that.
00:41:07Yeah, I want that for you too.
00:41:10You'll find it.
00:41:11But anyways, let's get you feeling better.
00:41:13Let's get your arm better.
00:41:15Let's get you eating the soup that I made for you.
00:41:18Okay, Mom.
00:41:20Okay.
00:41:21You have to hand me my soup.
00:41:22Adopt a non-Asian daughter.
00:41:32Coffee.
00:41:34Black like my miserable heart.
00:41:37Good to see you too.
00:41:39You're changing it up.
00:41:40What's going on?
00:41:41Well, yeah, you know what?
00:41:42It's been that kind of a day, Liam.
00:41:44I know the feeling.
00:41:45Is Charlotte, she's still out?
00:41:47Yeah.
00:41:48Liam, I don't have anyone to talk to now.
00:41:52Would she want me?
00:41:53Like, would she want someone to call her?
00:41:55Just, I feel bad.
00:41:58Okay.
00:42:00I'll get you that coffee.
00:42:03Oh, he likes it.
00:42:09Hi, how can I help you today?
00:42:10Hi.
00:42:11Oh, ouch, that looked like it hurt.
00:42:13Oh, it did.
00:42:14But I'm wrapped up now and feeling better.
00:42:17But that's not all that happened.
00:42:18You know what?
00:42:19You know what?
00:42:20You know what?
00:42:21You know what?
00:42:22You know what?
00:42:23You know what?
00:42:24You know what?
00:42:25You know what?
00:42:26But that's not all that happened to me.
00:42:27My phone took a couple too.
00:42:30I'm sorry.
00:42:31I didn't mean to be rude.
00:42:32My name's Renee.
00:42:33May I have your name?
00:42:34Charlotte.
00:42:35Charlotte Page.
00:42:36Charlotte Page.
00:42:37Do you blog?
00:42:38No, but I write for an online magazine.
00:42:40Yeah, Mr. Right?
00:42:42Yeah.
00:42:43Oh, my gosh.
00:42:44Oh, I am loving that series.
00:42:46Okay, wow.
00:42:47I knew your name sounded familiar.
00:42:49I've been sharing your pieces with all my friends.
00:42:51Really?
00:42:52Yes.
00:42:53Thank you.
00:42:54Totally inspiring.
00:42:55It's so cool to have you in here.
00:42:56I read that piece you wrote a few weeks ago about the basement dweller.
00:42:59Oh, yeah?
00:43:00Yeah.
00:43:01You made me realize how lazy all men are.
00:43:04Oh.
00:43:05Um, he wasn't lazy.
00:43:08He just had different goals in life.
00:43:10And anyways, not all men are lazy.
00:43:12Some just drop you off a cliff.
00:43:14Oh, my gosh.
00:43:16Is that going to be in the article?
00:43:18Mm-hmm.
00:43:19I can't wait to read it.
00:43:26Okay.
00:43:39You live!
00:43:41Hi.
00:43:42Hi.
00:43:43Yep, still alive and kicking.
00:43:45Although with every day, my bruises get more and more colorful.
00:43:48Mm, owie.
00:43:50Maybe you should start including pictures in your articles.
00:43:52I should.
00:43:53Seriously, though, I'm so, so glad you're back.
00:43:56Yesterday was so long and so boring.
00:43:58I had to talk to the I.T. guy.
00:44:00A riveting conversation, I'm sure.
00:44:01Yeah, oh, my gosh.
00:44:02You have no idea.
00:44:03Oh, look.
00:44:04I got a new phone.
00:44:05Wait, what?
00:44:06Already?
00:44:07Yeah, well, I wanted it working for when the doctor calls.
00:44:10I'm sorry.
00:44:11The what?
00:44:12Wait, did I not tell you?
00:44:14No.
00:44:15Yeah, he wants to make dinner for me at his place tonight.
00:44:18Okay, could you just give me whatever it is that makes you so irresistible to men?
00:44:22Seriously, have you ever talked to a guy who did not end up asking you out?
00:44:25Kate, this is not my normal life.
00:44:27I just think the fates are having pity on me so that I have material to write about.
00:44:32Oh, just material to write about.
00:44:34That would be so nice.
00:44:40Hey.
00:44:42Hi.
00:44:47Haven't seen you around the building much.
00:44:48Been busy.
00:44:49Yeah, me too.
00:44:51Evidently.
00:44:54I noticed I was lucky enough to be featured in one of your romantique articles.
00:45:00Yeah, that was just...
00:45:02Had an ex-girlfriend of mine share it to my timeline.
00:45:06She said it sounded like me.
00:45:08Didn't know it literally was me.
00:45:12Thousands of comments about what a classless jerk I was.
00:45:16I don't think so.
00:45:17Then I saw your other articles.
00:45:19About other guys who must have been unfortunate enough to go out on dates with you.
00:45:29I'm just glad you're finding good fodder for your viral articles.
00:45:36And I thought I was supposed to be the jerk.
00:45:42I never lied about you.
00:45:44I never lied about you.
00:45:46Oh, but you were honest.
00:45:49Yes.
00:46:11Hey, Dr. Bailey.
00:46:12Dr. Jared.
00:46:15Yeah.
00:46:19Oh.
00:46:33Charlotte.
00:46:34Hey.
00:46:35Liam.
00:46:36Hi.
00:46:37How's it going?
00:46:38I'm alright.
00:46:39Good.
00:46:40I didn't think I'd catch you on a work day.
00:46:43Doing okay?
00:46:44How's the arm doing?
00:46:45Oh, my arm is fine.
00:46:47I mean, it's the same.
00:46:48I don't know.
00:46:49Things are just weird.
00:46:54Okay.
00:46:55Do you want to talk about it?
00:46:59Happy to listen.
00:47:02I feel like my articles are starting to hurt some people.
00:47:06More than they're hurting me.
00:47:08And I was supposed to go out with this guy tonight, but his work is understaffed, so we canceled.
00:47:14And 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.
00:47:21That was a good visual.
00:47:22I appreciate that.
00:47:23You're welcome.
00:47:24Um, I mean, like, I'm happy to help you with it if you need help.
00:47:29Yeah, I mean, I definitely will need some caffeinated beverages to get through this.
00:47:33This is not what I mean.
00:47:34I'm more than a barista.
00:47:36Okay, I'm a human, and I have two working hands.
00:47:39No, for real.
00:47:40Like, if you want to just dictate, I can type your article.
00:47:44Really?
00:47:45Yeah.
00:47:47Two at a time.
00:47:50Yeah.
00:47:51Thank you.
00:47:52That would actually be totally awesome.
00:47:54Yeah.
00:47:55No, it's honestly, it's no problem.
00:47:57Happy to.
00:47:59Are you busy right now?
00:48:03Should Mr. Wright be adventurous?
00:48:06Should he try new things and be risky and daring?
00:48:11Should he help you out of your comfort zone and try new things?
00:48:16Speaking of which, I tried rock climbing for the first time this week.
00:48:21On white buses.
00:48:24Who's that?
00:48:25That is food.
00:48:27Food?
00:48:28Yep.
00:48:29Hey, we're trying to help people fall in love.
00:48:30What?
00:48:31Thinking we can use the energy.
00:48:34Hey.
00:48:35Hey.
00:48:36Thank you so much.
00:48:37Oh, did you get the tip on the app?
00:48:39Okay, awesome.
00:48:40Thank you so much.
00:48:41Pizza.
00:48:43Is this what we're going to have every time?
00:48:45Is this our thing?
00:48:46This is our thing, yeah.
00:48:47No, I was actually trying to be considerate.
00:48:49It's a one-handed food, because I know that you're an invalid.
00:48:52Good point.
00:48:54I know, I do love pizza.
00:48:59I love being a part of your day on the radio.
00:49:02That wraps it up for us.
00:49:03Midnight is here.
00:49:07Okay, so, Mr. Wright, right?
00:49:11Yeah, it was Miss Weir's.
00:49:13My boss's at Brainchild.
00:49:19I gotta ask.
00:49:20Okay, so I thought that, because I always thought that Mr. Wright was like,
00:49:24tall, dark, and handsome type of situation.
00:49:27Yeah, that's what every woman's looking for in a man.
00:49:29Okay, good.
00:49:30Good to know.
00:49:31Wait, though.
00:49:32Okay, hypothetical.
00:49:33So what if a guy is only, like, tall and dark?
00:49:37Oh.
00:49:39I guess that would be Mr. Almost Right.
00:49:41Mr. Almost Right?
00:49:42Yeah.
00:49:43So there's levels?
00:49:44Yeah.
00:49:45There's levels to Mr. Right, okay.
00:49:46Oh, so if he's none of them, then he's just Mr. Wrong.
00:49:49Yeah, now you're getting it.
00:49:50I'm catching on.
00:49:52I finally understand where women fall in.
00:49:54That's all you'll ever need to know.
00:49:55That's all I'll need to know.
00:49:57Okay, so.
00:50:02So how tall is tall?
00:50:04Yeah, at least six feet, you know, for me.
00:50:07Yeah.
00:50:08That's cruel.
00:50:09I need to be able to wear my stilettos, you know?
00:50:11I get it, I get it.
00:50:12And dark, that's like an edginess thing, right?
00:50:16Yeah, that's like an attitude.
00:50:17Okay, yeah.
00:50:18Yeah, like mysterious, a little dangerous.
00:50:21Bad boy.
00:50:22Yeah.
00:50:23Yeah, okay.
00:50:24Not too bad, obviously, yeah.
00:50:26I'm a little afraid to ask this next one, but what is...
00:50:31What's handsome?
00:50:33I don't know.
00:50:34Like, just handsome, you know?
00:50:38Like, you're handsome.
00:50:42Thanks.
00:50:45What about, uh, what did you say?
00:50:47Mysterious and dangerous.
00:50:50Oh, no, no.
00:50:51You are too nice to be dangerous.
00:50:53Come on, come on.
00:50:54But, okay, I'll give you mysterious.
00:50:56Okay.
00:50:57Yeah.
00:50:58Right.
00:50:59So, I'm too nice.
00:51:01I'm a couple inches shy of six feet.
00:51:04I'm a little mysterious, but I am handsome.
00:51:08So that would make you a solid Mr. Almost Right.
00:51:11Man, this is really crushing my hopes and dreams of finding a Mrs. Right.
00:51:15No, but you'll find Mrs. Almost Right and be happy.
00:51:19There you go.
00:51:20Two mediocre's make beautiful children.
00:51:22Two mediocre's.
00:51:23And...
00:51:24Match made in heaven.
00:51:25It's a love story for the ages.
00:51:26Yes.
00:51:27Two solid...
00:51:28Probably ever after.
00:51:29Five out of tens find each other.
00:51:31That's beautiful.
00:51:33I want that for you.
00:51:34Thank you.
00:51:35Thank you so much.
00:51:36You're so kind.
00:51:37Do you want more?
00:51:38Yes, please.
00:51:41Okay, so Mr. Right, he's got to be tall, dark, and handsome.
00:51:45And also adventurous?
00:51:49Yep, and a businessman.
00:51:51And a doctor.
00:51:52I guess we'll see.
00:51:55Sounds like being Mr. Right is just getting more and more complicated.
00:51:58Hey, I don't make the rules.
00:51:59I just write about them.
00:52:02So have you always wanted to be a writer?
00:52:05No.
00:52:07When I was five, I wanted to be a princess.
00:52:10Oh, there you go.
00:52:12That's a luxurious career.
00:52:13Why didn't that one pan out?
00:52:16Probably, I think for my 11th birthday, my grandma got me a journal.
00:52:21But I didn't really do anything with it until I think it was my parents' divorce.
00:52:27Sorry.
00:52:29What led to the writing?
00:52:31I think as a kid, I just, I was trying to find ways to cope with everything.
00:52:36And, you know, whenever they'd scream at each other, I just started writing.
00:52:41So I pulled out the old journal, and at first I was writing about my frustrations.
00:52:46Then eventually, I started writing about other worlds to help see mine more clearly.
00:52:54That's awesome.
00:52:55Yeah.
00:52:56Sorry about your parents.
00:52:57That's tough.
00:52:58It's okay.
00:52:59I mean, me and my mom actually got really close because of it.
00:53:02You know, we kind of only had each other for a long time.
00:53:05Is Dad still in the picture?
00:53:06Do you talk to him?
00:53:07Oh, no.
00:53:08No, not for years.
00:53:09There was a lot of bad blood between him and my mom.
00:53:12So, yeah.
00:53:16That's fine.
00:53:17What about you?
00:53:18What about your family?
00:53:20I mean, we were close growing up.
00:53:23My brother and my parents, and I love my dad.
00:53:27I wanted to be just like him, actually.
00:53:29I ended up working at the exact same bank that he worked at.
00:53:33Wow.
00:53:34Yeah.
00:53:35You in a three-piece suit.
00:53:36I don't see it.
00:53:37I hated it so much.
00:53:40I was so bad at it.
00:53:42I worked there for five years, and, yeah, hated every second of it,
00:53:45and then quit a year ago.
00:53:47So, what's next?
00:53:48What's the dream?
00:53:50The dream?
00:53:51It's a little cheesy, but I'm kind of living it.
00:53:54Making coffee?
00:53:55Yeah, I'm doing what I want to.
00:53:56Okay, first of all, hold up.
00:53:58I heard that tone.
00:53:59No, no judgment.
00:54:00No, no.
00:54:01Look, coffee, it's not just a drink, Charlotte.
00:54:04It's an art form, right?
00:54:05There are monastery monks in, like, the 15th century
00:54:08who are using the exact same brew that we use today, all right?
00:54:11The bean, it unites generations, Charlotte, okay?
00:54:15Coffee's not just a drink.
00:54:16You've got to respect the bean.
00:54:17I respect the bean.
00:54:18Okay, good.
00:54:19No, no, I love being able to do something well enough
00:54:23that people from all over the city want to come around
00:54:25and kind of have a part in what I'm doing.
00:54:34You know, passion is a plus for Mr. Right.
00:54:37You don't say.
00:54:39It's good to know.
00:54:44What's next?
00:54:45Yeah, where were we?
00:54:48Okay, look, I am all for lowering cholesterol
00:54:52and all that stuff, but I swear,
00:54:56if I had known that you were going to wake me up
00:54:58on a Saturday morning to do this,
00:55:00when cartoons are on, mind you,
00:55:02I'm sorry.
00:55:03I would never have decided to befriend you.
00:55:05True story.
00:55:06I know.
00:55:07This was a horrible idea.
00:55:08Can we be done?
00:55:09I'm done.
00:55:10I'm done.
00:55:11Yes.
00:55:12Okay.
00:55:13Let's go see Liam.
00:55:14Yeah, let's go.
00:55:19Hey.
00:55:20Hey, Liam.
00:55:21I did not think I'd see you guys here on a Saturday.
00:55:23You still need coffee on a Saturday.
00:55:25True.
00:55:26We're here to use and abuse our friendship
00:55:27with the coffee guy.
00:55:28Please, abuse away.
00:55:29It's been so slow in here all day,
00:55:30I need to give someone a discount.
00:55:32Has anyone even been in here today?
00:55:34Yes, we had Gary in earlier.
00:55:37He's the janitor, yeah.
00:55:38Yes, good luck, Gary.
00:55:39He's a sweetheart.
00:55:41Is he your next date?
00:55:42Yeah, Mr. Janitor.
00:55:44He's my next victim.
00:55:46I do have a date lined up, though.
00:55:48Yeah.
00:55:49Wow.
00:55:50What you working on?
00:55:51Oh, doing some paperwork stuff.
00:55:54Really fun.
00:55:55Nice.
00:55:56Sounds official.
00:55:57What's it for?
00:55:58Just bookkeeping and receipts for the shop.
00:56:01So your boss has you working the counter and the books?
00:56:05Yeah.
00:56:06He's pretty demanding.
00:56:08Oh, speaking of work and paper,
00:56:11I was wondering if you could help me write my next article,
00:56:13the doctor one.
00:56:15I'd love to.
00:56:16Yeah, okay, cool.
00:56:19I'll grab you the coffee.
00:56:21Yes.
00:56:22What can I get for you ladies?
00:56:23I'll have a chocolate raspberry smoothie.
00:56:26Okay, smoothie.
00:56:29I will try the cinnamon latte.
00:56:33You're shaking it up.
00:56:35Look at you go.
00:56:39Question.
00:56:40Yeah, what's up?
00:56:42You're single, right?
00:56:45I am, yes.
00:56:48Are you looking for a relationship?
00:56:51That's a good question.
00:56:54Yeah, I mean, I think like most people,
00:56:56I'm always kind of looking for someone.
00:56:58I just haven't found the right person yet.
00:57:01I'd be opposed to it if it, you know, something did come up.
00:57:07Hey.
00:57:09Maybe she can teach me to be Mr. Right.
00:57:13Hi.
00:57:14How are you?
00:57:15I'm fine.
00:57:16How are you?
00:57:17I'm fine.
00:57:18How are you?
00:57:19I'm fine.
00:57:20How are you?
00:57:21I'm fine.
00:57:22How are you?
00:57:23I'm fine.
00:57:24How are you?
00:57:25I'm fine.
00:57:26How are you?
00:57:27I'm fine.
00:57:28How are you?
00:57:29I'm fine.
00:57:30How are you?
00:57:31I'm fine.
00:57:32How are you?
00:57:33I'm fine.
00:57:34How are you?
00:57:35I'm fine.
00:57:36How are you?
00:57:37I'm fine.
00:57:38How are you?
00:57:39I'm fine.
00:57:41How are you?
00:57:42I'm fine.
00:57:43How are you?
00:57:46How are you?
00:57:52I really like the shading on this one.
00:57:55Yeah, yeah it's nice.
00:57:57Yeah.
00:58:06Oh wow.
00:58:07I love the cobblestone, I just want to follow it, see where it goes.
00:58:18So if you could go to any fictional place, where would you go?
00:58:25Like I would go to Rivendell from Lord of the Rings, like in Middle Earth, I'd want
00:58:30to hear the songs of the elves and hear the stories of Middle Earth, that's where I'd
00:58:35go.
00:58:36What about you?
00:58:38Hmm, probably Malaru, it's just this place in a book that I like.
00:58:43Oh yeah, Airship?
00:58:44Yeah.
00:58:45I just finished it.
00:58:46Really?
00:58:47Yeah.
00:58:48What did you think?
00:58:49I mean, you first.
00:58:50Oh, I really, really liked the part where...
00:58:57Wow, it's actually kind of fun to be on a date with Mr. Good Taste in Books, Mr. Well
00:59:05Read, no, Mr. Not-That-Into-Art-But-Definitely-The-Gym, hmm, or Mr. Interesting.
00:59:13Well, I hope to see you again.
00:59:17Yeah, me too.
00:59:19Cool, well, I'm...
00:59:21There we go.
00:59:22Okay, alright.
00:59:23Bye.
00:59:36How we doing?
00:59:38Not too great.
00:59:39I am unfortunately still not adjusted to the whole one-handed typing thing, but good news,
00:59:45I get this beast off tomorrow, hallelujah.
00:59:48Hallelujah!
00:59:49Look at you go.
00:59:51Okay, are we doing, um, is it doctor or museum guy today?
00:59:56Mr. Perfection.
00:59:57So I'm guessing, ooh, doctor.
01:00:00This is it.
01:00:01How can this guy not be Mr. Right?
01:00:02He's a doctor, he's accomplished.
01:00:04He loves to make tacos.
01:00:07I had high hopes, I did, but he was pretty fastidious, I guess you could say.
01:00:15There was definitely some incompatibilities.
01:00:17Yeah, his loss.
01:00:19I'm kind of nervous for when you write one of these things about the dates we've been
01:00:23on.
01:00:24Well, lucky for you, we haven't been on any dates, so you're off the hook.
01:00:29I mean, yeah, but like, we've gone out.
01:00:33Yeah, but as friends, that's hardly the same.
01:00:36Yeah, all right, um, okay, yeah, so Mr. Perfectionist, tell me about him.
01:00:44Yes, Mr. Right would do well to have a clean streak.
01:00:49After all, cleanliness is next to godliness, but there is a fine line between Mr. Perfect
01:00:55and Mr. Perfectionist when the place you put your purse down is more important than being
01:01:01welcoming, fun, or spontaneous.
01:01:03That sounds pointed.
01:01:04Did he do something like that?
01:01:06Yeah, no, I put my purse on the couch and that was not okay.
01:01:09Shut up.
01:01:10Really?
01:01:11Yeah.
01:01:12Ooh, red flag.
01:01:13So ladies, find yourself a guy who is tidy, but also gives you the permission, or no,
01:01:22who is tidy, but also lets you be yourself.
01:01:26Makes really good tacos.
01:01:27And makes good tacos.
01:01:28Good.
01:01:30I don't know, am I going about this the wrong way?
01:01:33Like, for these guys, these dates are real.
01:01:35Well, yeah, I mean, if you're going to write about dating, you gotta date, right?
01:01:39Yeah, that's true.
01:01:42I guess I just never thought about how it might affect the guys I went out with.
01:01:46You know, it's kind of inevitable, though, sure.
01:01:48You know, when you're writing for an audience, you're going to be offending people.
01:01:51You know, like, I've been banned from loads of restaurants.
01:01:54Really?
01:01:55No, yeah, but you know what, I'm not mad about it because their food was absolute rubbish,
01:01:58so I'm really not missing out on anything.
01:02:00Besides, you know, you write about the bad stuff and the good stuff.
01:02:03Yeah.
01:02:04Yeah.
01:02:05I just never imagined that one of these guys would actually read any of my articles.
01:02:10Geez.
01:02:11I mean, okay, if you're worried about it, then maybe instead of dating lots of guys,
01:02:17maybe you just date one guy.
01:02:20Well, I did have a good time with Jimmy at the museum.
01:02:26We, like, totally hit it off and had quite a bit in common.
01:02:30I would just feel bad dating him under false pretenses.
01:02:34Okay, what is wrong with you?
01:02:36No, not Jimmy.
01:02:37Not Jimmy.
01:02:38We like Liam.
01:02:39Liam.
01:02:40Yeah.
01:02:41I would no sooner date you, but I wouldn't do that either because I don't date my friends.
01:02:46You really want to date me?
01:02:52Okay, not to be the person who beats a dead horse, but seriously, have you given any real
01:02:58thought about Liam?
01:02:59Why are you being so pushy?
01:03:00Stop.
01:03:01I mean, come on.
01:03:02Isn't that the whole point of your article, is finding Mr. Right?
01:03:04No.
01:03:05Not for me.
01:03:06For other women, you know, I'm helping them on their journey.
01:03:10Aren't you worried that your readers are going to think that there is no Mr. Right for them?
01:03:14No.
01:03:15I just want them to be cautious, right?
01:03:19You mean cynical.
01:03:20Okay.
01:03:21Okay, you told me I don't have to worry about this, that my readers are enjoying my take
01:03:24on Mr. Right.
01:03:25Well, yeah, Charlotte, that's because you're a good writer.
01:03:28You could literally write about dirt and anyone would read that.
01:03:31Like honestly, Liam is perfect for you.
01:03:33Like he's kind, he's single, he's a gentleman, and he's so, so into you.
01:03:37You don't know that.
01:03:38I do, and you know what?
01:03:39I think you're weighing more into him than you're letting on.
01:03:42Okay.
01:03:43Like honestly, why won't you give him a chance?
01:03:45You've given everyone else a chance.
01:03:47Come on, there was Mr. Basement, Mr. Businessman, Mr. Adventurer, Mr. Perfectionist.
01:03:52Why not Mr. Coffee?
01:03:54Because he's my friend, okay?
01:03:56And you and Liam are the only real friends I have in this city.
01:04:00And if I dated him,
01:04:06it would ruin everything.
01:04:09Like, Charlotte, I really feel like you're going to miss out on a real opportunity here.
01:04:16I don't know.
01:04:20I'll see you at work.
01:04:30So, we're slow dancing, right?
01:04:32I'm gazing into her eyes.
01:04:34It's 9,000 degrees, so I'm so sweaty and so nervous.
01:04:37There's a spot up here.
01:04:38I go for it, right?
01:04:40I headbutt.
01:04:41No.
01:04:42I literally headbutted her.
01:04:43It's not an exaggeration.
01:04:44That's so bad.
01:04:45That's bad.
01:04:46I know.
01:04:47I still think my first kiss was worse, but...
01:04:49Put it in your article.
01:04:50There you go.
01:04:51Yeah?
01:04:52Yeah.
01:04:53I mean, I don't know.
01:04:54I kind of feel like my readers are expecting me to be this, like, relationship expert,
01:04:58but I'm not, obviously.
01:05:01Yeah.
01:05:02I don't know.
01:05:03I feel like...
01:05:04I don't think anyone's expecting that of you.
01:05:06I think the appeal of your article is relatability.
01:05:08You're really good at coming across, like, super genuine.
01:05:10Yeah.
01:05:11Thanks.
01:05:12And I think it'll give people hope.
01:05:13Hope?
01:05:14Yeah.
01:05:15It's right here.
01:05:16Hope.
01:05:17Hmm.
01:05:21Hope for what?
01:05:22For the fictitious happily ever after?
01:05:25Fictitious.
01:05:26My oh my, you are a writer.
01:05:28That's a good word.
01:05:29Thank you.
01:05:30Yeah.
01:05:32I might have to push back on that no happily ever after thing.
01:05:36I think that...
01:05:37I don't know.
01:05:38A lot of people I know, when they found their someone, they were...
01:05:41Made them better.
01:05:42Hmm.
01:05:43Well, those are the lucky ones, because...
01:05:46When my parents' relationship blew up, our whole family blew up, and...
01:05:51Yeah.
01:05:52None of us were better after that, but...
01:05:55Sorry.
01:05:57I can think of one positive thing that came out of your parents' relationship.
01:06:01Oh, yeah?
01:06:02What's that?
01:06:05Sit down.
01:06:06I don't know if I made that obvious enough.
01:06:13I know where that comes from, though.
01:06:15Like, I know what you're...
01:06:16I know what you're talking about.
01:06:19My ex, um...
01:06:23Really loved her.
01:06:24Really, genuinely cared about her.
01:06:29And...
01:06:31Found out she was dating my best friend the exact same time she was dating me.
01:06:37So...
01:06:40Yeah.
01:06:41Yeah.
01:06:42That was my reaction.
01:06:45It was hard.
01:06:46It was really tough.
01:06:47I was, uh...
01:06:48I was bitter.
01:06:49I was really bitter for a long time, because that's not something you just, like...
01:06:54Recover from.
01:06:55You know?
01:06:58It was really hard, because...
01:07:01I didn't feel like I was just...
01:07:03Losing someone that I loved.
01:07:06No, I was...
01:07:07Just losing my best friend.
01:07:09Yeah.
01:07:11Gosh, Liam.
01:07:12I'm sorry.
01:07:13That...
01:07:14Their loss.
01:07:15Yeah.
01:07:17Yeah.
01:07:18It sucked.
01:07:19But...
01:07:20It was interesting, because after the initial kind of, you know, scar healed, and the...
01:07:27Resentment kind of went away...
01:07:30I started remembering the...
01:07:32The good stuff.
01:07:33Too.
01:07:34And I started to retain the positive things from our relationship.
01:07:38And on this kind of person, I painted her to be in my head.
01:07:45She was actually the one that...
01:07:47Kind of pushed me to quit my job at the bank.
01:07:51She knew how miserable I was there, and she was always, you know,
01:07:54Pursue your passions! You gotta pursue your passions!
01:07:56She was really big on that, so...
01:08:00If she hadn't done that, I wouldn't be...
01:08:03Spending my days in coffee shops, doing what I love.
01:08:05And...
01:08:07I wouldn't have met you.
01:08:11And gone on this incredibly picturesque hike.
01:08:15I know how to pick a spot.
01:08:17You do!
01:08:18It's pretty good.
01:08:19You do!
01:08:20Good choice.
01:08:25My dad always said that real love was...
01:08:29Liking who you were the most around that other person.
01:08:34So yeah, by his definition...
01:08:37I absolutely believe in love.
01:08:45I should probably go.
01:08:49Enchanté.
01:08:53Here we are.
01:08:55Wow!
01:09:01A 15 minute hike, and you can't even see the city anymore.
01:09:04Oh, it's cool, right?
01:09:05Yeah.
01:09:06It really is crazy to think that, like, just beyond that mountain...
01:09:09All this nature...
01:09:11There's a city.
01:09:12Right? With a hundred thousand dudes...
01:09:14Who all want to date you so bad.
01:09:17They want to contribute to the article!
01:09:19They're trying to do the right thing!
01:09:20Lucky me!
01:09:21Lucky you!
01:09:27You talk about your dad a lot.
01:09:29Are you guys still close?
01:09:32Yeah, he passed away a couple years ago.
01:09:36Liam, I'm so sorry.
01:09:38You're good. You didn't know. Fine.
01:09:41Yeah.
01:09:43I do miss him.
01:09:46He was everything that I'd want to be as a man.
01:09:48You know, he was compassionate, he was kind.
01:09:51Loved his kids, you know, his co-workers.
01:09:53I liked him. He was good at his job.
01:09:56I think the thing that kind of sticks with me the most is...
01:10:01How much he loved my mom.
01:10:03He was really clear on making her a priority and...
01:10:08Yeah, she meant the world to him.
01:10:13Well, he sounds wonderful.
01:10:19Just like you.
01:10:33Yeah.
01:10:40Thanks so much for taking all this time to show me around.
01:10:43Oh, yeah. Absolutely.
01:10:44It's finally starting to feel like home.
01:10:47And I know you work a lot, so thanks.
01:10:49Yeah, for sure.
01:10:50No, it's actually been super fun to kind of show somebody else, you know, all this stuff for the first time.
01:10:55It makes it new for me, you know? I appreciate it more.
01:10:58Yeah, it's nice to see it from your perspective.
01:11:00Yeah.
01:11:01Anyway, I'll see you.
01:11:04I'll see you, yeah.
01:11:07Charlotte, would you...
01:11:13Would you want to go on a date with me next?
01:11:19Oh, you mean you want me to, like, eviscerate you in one of my articles?
01:11:24No, no, I mean, like, genuinely, would you want to go...
01:11:28Do you want to go on a date with me?
01:11:31Like, a real date.
01:11:34I don't think that's a good idea.
01:11:37Why not?
01:11:38I mean, look, we're spending all this time with each other as it is, and, like...
01:11:43I don't know, if there are real feelings here, I think it's not bad.
01:11:46I mean, how could you have feelings for me? You hardly know me.
01:11:50Yeah, no, I just...
01:11:52I just...
01:11:54Yeah, fair, I'd like to get to know you more.
01:12:01Like, I get...
01:12:03I look forward to the next time I'm going to see you.
01:12:07And I want to see you tomorrow, and the next day, and I just...
01:12:11I'm saying a lot.
01:12:13Look, I just say that because I mean it, and it's what I feel.
01:12:19I can't.
01:12:22Look, I know that your parents didn't have the best situation,
01:12:25and I cannot even begin to imagine what you've been through.
01:12:28Like, I'm not going to pretend like I can. I can't.
01:12:32But I don't think we should say no to the chance of something good
01:12:36just because something bad might happen.
01:12:39The chance of what?
01:12:40I mean, for us to, like, spend all this time dating
01:12:43just to find out that we were actually better off as friends?
01:12:46Or, I don't know, until one of us gets bored?
01:12:48I think you're thinking ahead a little too much.
01:12:50Am I?
01:12:51Yeah. Yes.
01:12:52What about your last girlfriend?
01:12:54What about my parents?
01:12:55You know, they just got sick of each other.
01:12:58What about your parents?
01:13:00Your dad is gone, and now your mom is all alone.
01:13:03I mean, how can you guarantee that something like that won't happen to us?
01:13:10I can't.
01:13:12I can't.
01:13:13You're right, I can't guarantee that nothing bad will happen,
01:13:18but, like, I don't think anyone should completely shut down on the idea of love
01:13:24just because life also happens.
01:13:28And for me, the risk is worth it.
01:13:33I've never needed a romantic relationship.
01:13:36And, frankly, I'm fine with the way things are.
01:13:43Yeah.
01:13:44That's just the way it is.
01:13:45Yeah, yeah.
01:13:49So, um, see ya.
01:13:52See ya.
01:13:54Bye.
01:14:18Bye.
01:14:33Don't know what I saw
01:14:37I never knew you for long
01:14:42God lost in the mountain sky
01:14:47Stars so bright
01:14:56In the backwoods, my home
01:15:00That's where I sang my songs
01:15:04In the valley, in the cold
01:15:07In the valley, in the cold
01:15:10That's where my heart you stole
01:15:14In the mountains, my car
01:15:17That's where we watched the stars
01:15:20And you could love me, I thought
01:15:37And you could love me, I thought
01:16:04Thanks again for letting me borrow your book.
01:16:07It was great to talk with you about it.
01:16:10I wanted to return the favor with a book of my own.
01:16:13This was one of my absolute favorites growing up,
01:16:16and it reminds me a lot of my own family.
01:16:19I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
01:16:21Liam.
01:16:23P.S. If all you want is friendship,
01:16:25then that is more than enough for me.
01:16:29Just as long as you're in my life.
01:16:31Thank you.
01:17:01This week, I went on a date with Mr. Almost Right.
01:17:30Mr. Almost Right is kind and fun to talk to.
01:17:34He listens to you and sends you notes about his favorite books.
01:17:38He helps you feel at home in a new city and makes you laugh.
01:17:42He makes you feel safe, so you open up about personal things.
01:17:47You share your fears, and he listens.
01:17:50So why, you may ask, is he not Mr. Right?
01:17:56I don't know.
01:18:10I don't know what to say, Charlotte.
01:18:14I'm not so sure about this Mr. Almost Right.
01:18:19Oh, okay.
01:18:21Oh, okay.
01:18:25I guess I can revise it and try to get something to the editors on time.
01:18:30I mean, he seems pretty right to me.
01:18:35Is there something you want to talk about?
01:18:39I mean, the guy, Jimmy, that this article is supposed to be about.
01:18:43I don't know. As I was writing, it kind of started turning out to be about someone else.
01:18:52Can I suggest, after reading this, that you reevaluate your outlook on love?
01:19:01Look, you work for one of the premier relationship sites on the internet.
01:19:06And we do as an official stance, except that there are the proverbial Prince Charmings out there.
01:19:12But after your spree of dud dates that you've written about, this one, this article, it makes you sound extremely pessimistic.
01:19:27Look, I think that it's best that we postpone the Mr. Right article for the week.
01:19:33Give you some time.
01:19:36Is that okay?
01:19:38Yeah. Yeah.
01:19:41Yeah. Yeah.
01:19:47Charlotte.
01:19:49Charlotte.
01:19:51Hello?
01:19:55That's a dessert to Charlotte. Can you read me? Over.
01:20:04Are you okay? Are you still mad about the fight?
01:20:07The fight? I'm sorry. I do this thing where I try to help people, and instead I end up just pushing them away.
01:20:15And I don't want to push you away. You're my best friend.
01:20:20You're my best friend, too. And I probably needed to hear what you had to say, even though I didn't like it.
01:20:26Oh, you were right.
01:20:29I know. About what?
01:20:32Liam, he asked me out the other night.
01:20:34Stop. Oh, my gosh. No, wait. This is perfect, Mr. Coffee.
01:20:38No. No. This is not going to happen.
01:20:41What? So stop.
01:20:42Kate, why not?
01:20:43Because going out with those guys was work. Going out with Liam would be not work.
01:20:51Oh, my gosh. You have feelings for him.
01:20:55No. No.
01:20:56Oh, no. This is perfect because he actually has feelings for you, too. He has from, like, day one. It's been so obvious.
01:21:00I don't want him to have feelings for me, okay?
01:21:03Because then I'd lose a friend and a coffee shop, and I'd have to see him every day.
01:21:07It's just weird. I came to the city for this job, so it would just be a horribly bad, terrible, terrible idea.
01:21:18Okay, look. I know you just literally got done being mad at me, but hear me out.
01:21:25It kind of sounds like you're just afraid of getting hurt.
01:21:30Which is totally okay. It's normal.
01:21:32If you don't let yourself fall for someone, then, yeah, you're not going to get hurt.
01:21:37But then you also miss out on, like, one of the greatest parts of life.
01:21:42Yeah, but how do you know it's worth it?
01:21:46You don't. I mean, that's the whole point.
01:21:49You got to take a risk, Char.
01:21:52But, I mean, hey, worst case scenario, let's say it all goes south.
01:21:57You'll have your best friend there to bring you soup.
01:22:00And to stay with you until it gets better.
01:22:09I think you should talk to him.
01:22:11Not like that. I just... I don't want to lose our coffee discounts.
01:22:18I did kind of snap at him.
01:22:21Hi.
01:22:29Hey, Sarah.
01:22:30Hi.
01:22:31Is it just you today?
01:22:33Yeah. Liam's working at a different location.
01:22:36Oh.
01:22:38You ladies want the usual?
01:22:41Oh, uh, not today. But thanks.
01:22:43Thanks.
01:22:51What was that about?
01:22:54I told them you weren't here today.
01:22:56Really? Why?
01:22:57You know, it's part of the girl code.
01:22:59Protect your friend from the jerk who blew them off.
01:23:02You are aware I'm not a woman, right?
01:23:06Close enough.
01:23:09Man, I really thought... I really thought there was something genuine there.
01:23:13I guess my intuition's not as good as I thought.
01:23:17What did she say?
01:23:19She said she was afraid that I'd ruin it, which I...
01:23:23I guess I kind of did.
01:23:26Okay, look.
01:23:27I'm going to give you some advice.
01:23:29And then you can give me that raise that I've been asking about.
01:23:33Please.
01:23:34So the way I see it, you have two options.
01:23:36Either move on, or just be her friend.
01:23:40If you keep trying to be her friend, but you're always hoping for more,
01:23:43you're just going to end up hurting yourself.
01:23:45Or her.
01:23:49Yeah, yeah.
01:23:51I think you're right.
01:23:53Now, about my raise.
01:24:02Buy yourself something nice.
01:24:19Okay.
01:24:49I love you.
01:25:19I love you.
01:25:49I love you.
01:26:19I love you.
01:26:40Hey.
01:26:41Hey.
01:26:42Um, can I...
01:26:44Okay, come on in.
01:26:49Liam, I'm sorry.
01:26:51I was so angry, and...
01:26:52No, no, no, no, no.
01:26:54It's...
01:26:55You were right.
01:26:56Okay?
01:26:58You are new here, and you have a huge, demanding job,
01:27:01and you already have to wait to, like, a thousand other guys that want to date you.
01:27:04I should have known what you needed in that moment was an actual friend.
01:27:08And I'm sorry that I didn't realize that, and...
01:27:10I don't want to ruin what we have.
01:27:12I really want you to know I really hate you here.
01:27:20Hmm.
01:27:21Charlotte.
01:27:22I'm sorry.
01:27:23I know it's a risk, and...
01:27:27it's worth it with you.
01:27:33So, Liam...
01:27:35Yeah?
01:27:36Will you go on a date with me?
01:27:40Please?
01:27:43I would love that.
01:27:50Eight-calorie afternoon.
01:27:54You may feel that Mr. Right is a fantasy,
01:27:58an elusive daydream that's only for children's stories or the naive.
01:28:05But, no.
01:28:07I'm a believer.
01:28:09Mr. Right isn't a particular kind of guy across the board.
01:28:14He's that certain person who you feel like you can be your best self with.
01:28:20But who is the right person?
01:28:22If you've been reading my dating adventures over the past couple months,
01:28:25then you would think Mr. Right was nowhere to be found.
01:28:31I've been writing about other guys who I didn't continue dating,
01:28:34but it doesn't mean that they were Mr. Wrong.
01:28:37They just weren't my Mr. Right.
01:28:41But this past week, I've learned something new.
01:28:45Something to help me see the world differently.
01:28:48Mr. Right wasn't some special guy, far off and unreachable,
01:28:53atop my hopelessly high expectations.
01:28:56Instead, he was right in front of me the entire time.
01:29:02And hey, yours might be also.
01:29:07Alright, watch your step.
01:29:09Don't inhale the dust.
01:29:11You're good.
01:29:13Where are we?
01:29:14You can take a seat if you want.
01:29:18Voila!
01:29:20This is my new location.
01:29:22Um, gonna open up in about a week.
01:29:25Wait.
01:29:27New location?
01:29:29Yeah.
01:29:31Do you own the coffee shop?
01:29:36I learned that I had to take risks and just let myself experience life.
01:29:43Mr. Right is out there.
01:29:46You just have to give him a chance when he comes along.
01:29:53So keep looking.
01:29:55Because Mr. Right could be anywhere.
