This is my friend Ben, and he just fell
in love with a girl named Kate, which is

why he's skipping and jumping and just
generally acting like an idiot.

Yoo -hoo!

Took the liberty of ordering us a little
hot breakfast. The rub is I don't have

any money to pay for it.

No problem. Listen, Larry, I am walking
on air. I'm taking Kate out tonight, and

if it goes half as well as I think it
will, it'll be the last first date of my

life. I'm sorry.

What's the big deal? You already hung
out with Kate. The big deal is you're

always there, or her friend Connie is
there. Tonight, it's just the two of us.

Our first proper date, and the first
date is huge, Larry. It sets the tone

the rest of the relationship.

Ben, there you are.

I'm so sorry. I have to cancel tonight.

Yeah, well, it was a good run, you guys.

Kate, you remember Larry? He's the large
guy that follows me everywhere.

Larry, I know it's terrible timing, but
I've just got this urgent work thing.

Wow, that doesn't sound like a lie at
all.

No, no, I just, I closed a lease on the
48th floor, so I've got to pull together

tenant info and client terms and
liability waivers, addendums. Whoa, that

boring to be a lie.

I will see you upstairs, all right?
Don't forget to pay.

It's not a lie. I do want to go out. I
want to go out every night. Well, not

every night. I mean, I'm not crazy.

No, it's fine. Don't worry about it.
We'll just, um... We'll pick another

You sure?

I'm sorry.

What about Thursday?

Thursday... Ah!

I have a mandatory dinner with the
partners.

But I don't have to go to that.

No, no, no. It's fine. We'll figure this
out.

You know what?

I have work to do, but I have to eat,
and Connie's going to be out on a date.

you want to just...

Come over to my place?

Well, really?

Oh, my God. No, I didn't mean it like
that.

What? No. I didn't mean it like that. I
was just... You

talk.

Okay, so maybe like 8 o 'clock?

8 o 'clock. That sounds great.

Great. I can make my famous rigatoni and
vodka sauce.

Ooh, vodka sauce.

Perfect. The only thing I like more than
eating carbs is getting plastered.

Um, I don't really have a drinking
problem.

Our love is volatile, chemical, anything
but typical. I want you

badly. I love you badly.

He's going to be here any second and
he's going to think that I'm dating a

He's going to find out you're a pig at
some point, so you might as well let him

know now.

Please, Connie.

Okay,

fine.

Stand back.

Thank you.

Connie, I need this night to go well. I
want him to like me as much as I like

him. So I need him to think that even
though I work really hard, I'm still

of together at home. That my hair just
naturally does this. That I am lactose

tolerant.

I'm a nanny. I've mastered the art of
sort of cleaning.

Although there's nothing I can do about
that.

Is this a bad outfit?

No, I just didn't know it was prom.

Good luck.

Hey, there he is.

Yeah, I took a cab.

I don't know why I told you that.

I don't know why I said there he is,
because you know where you are. You guys

should have a talk show.

Hey, Connie.

Don't worry.

She will be leaving soon.

Oh, that reminds me.

Larry's going to stop by to pick up a
file.

You told your creepy friend where we
live?

Great. Now I have to hide the Doritos.

Look at all this beautiful food. I can't
believe we're in so much trouble. Oh,

it's no trouble. I had to go to court
today, and there's this little shop down

there where this old lady makes pasta by
hand.

They were closed, so I got this at Daga
Studios.

Do the trial today?

So what is your record in the courtroom,
Counselor? You don't really keep track

of stuff like that. You know, 28 and 0.

Okay, time to check out all the gunk in
my pores.

Look at this, Kate. It's like it tells
its own story.

And the end.

Oh, I get it. We're pretending not to
care about our pores.

I'll just leave it on your nightstand.

Please don't.

Crudity.

Don't you have a... Connie, what's the
ETA on Dale? You know Dale. He's always

late. It doesn't mean anything. Stop
reading into it. I'm not at all, ever.

Thank God he's here.

Hi. Hi to you, too.

I'm here for a file from Ben. Sure you
are. I know a stalker when I see one.

Said the Wicked Witch longingly.

Here you go.

I got about three quarters of the way
through. There's some questionable

language that you're going to want to
clean up. Whoa.

I got to clean it up?

Well, it is your case.

Wow. You went there.

Unbelievable. That's fine.

Good night, everybody.

Good night. Whoa, whoa.

Are you guys watching the Knicks game?

No, it's just on that channel. I
actually have a lot of money riding on

it cool if I do? No.

Okay. I need five minutes. I'll leave
the instant the game's over.

Of course, sure. Ah, yes, thank you.
Thank you very much. Oh, that's actually

good, too, because, you know, if I have
any questions about the file thing in

here, right here.

No, you can't stay.

Remember, first date?

Setting the tone. She's supposed to be
meeting Kate. Why does she get to stay?

I am waiting for my date to arrive.

No, really, why does she get to stay?

I'm sorry that he unbuckled his belt.

Fine. He's your best friend, and he did
say he'd be gone in, like, five minutes.

He says lots of things. I'll be gone in
five minutes.

I'll pay you back.

That chair was already broken.

Vickery and Connie were close, but we
fight. Not fight, fight. Tickle fight.

I have work to do.

After I have a glass of wine. God, I
hate doing paperwork.

But there are some parts of being a
property manager that I love.

Like making deals and meeting people and
having access to all the secret

tunnels. There are secret tunnels?

No. Maybe.

Yes. I'm not supposed to tell anybody. I
tell everybody.

Well, here is to a proper date.

Whoopsie.

Sorry, Ben. No, no, it's fine. You can
hardly see it.

Connie, we talked about this, remember?
What did we agree to say every time we

opened that door?

Coming through. Coming through. I knew
that.

That is too hard to remember. Maybe just
don't come in here anymore because I

don't know if you've heard, but I'm on a
date.

Wow. Sorry. I just came in to get my
keys because I'm sure Dale, who is not

here, is probably close to arriving and
I want to be ready if and when he does.

And thank you for your support.

I'll be in my bedroom.

I admire your bravery. You know, going
in there with all those sad memories of

sleeping alone.

Good point.

I think I'll stay in here and see what's
on my TV. Oh, my God, no. No, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh,
goody. A city council meeting.

Look, they've approved a new playground
in Central Park, another place you can't

go within 25 feet of. Oh, that's clever.
That's good. Okay, I'm asking you

nicely. Can you please put the game back
on?

Fine. Thank you.

I'm about to win 100 bucks for the
Knicks.

I'll bet you 50 they lose.

There's two seconds left on the clock.
We have the ball, and we're up by three.

I'll just be taking your money, so
you're on.

All right. What?

Steal. No, that's not going in. That's
not... Oh, my God, it went in! Oh, no!

What just happened?

Well, the big guy put the ball through
the orange circle from the center of the

shiny floor, I think.

That's it. What are you doing? Why are
you taking your shoes off? Because we're

going into overtime.

You did this to yourself.

Okay, um, for concert.

No, uh -uh.

No, mine was embarrassing.

Mine was, too. Okay, let's say it at the
same time, on three.

One, two, three.

Cindy Lauper. Hey!

That was really embarrassing. Wow.

I was kidding. Mine was Nirvana.

I didn't even know who they were. Connie
just dragged me along. She always knows

the best bands before anyone else.

Do you think I was too mean to her?

Her? You just tricked me into admitting
that my first concert was during the

She's So Unusual tour.

Connie seems so tough, but I know she
really likes this Dale guy, and I'm

starting to think that he's not coming.

Here I am, kicking her out of our
kitchen.

I shouldn't be worrying about that.

What was your second concert?

Go talk to Connie.

Really? Yes. Dinner can wait. I will put
these in the oven.

and tell you about Michael Bolton when
you get back.

Oh, come on! You've got to be kidding
me!

Looking really good for the red team. At
this rate, I'm going to be able to pay

for my date's dinner.

Just saying you have a date a hundred
times doesn't make it true.

Oh, he's coming.

Is he?

I like your confidence.

How about we go another 100 this guy
doesn't show?

Because my guess is he was on his way
over here and he realized, oh, my God,

going to hang out with Connie, whatever
your last name is, and decided it would

be more fun to drive off of a cliff.

Larry, Connie doesn't need to prove to
me. You're on.

Perfect. Great.

Larry, do you mind if Connie and I talk
for just a second? Not at all.

bets with Larry about your date? Because
I'm on a hot streak.

I mean, I came out to apologize for
being so rude before, and I'm so sorry

Dale is so late.

I don't care about Dale. All I care
about is taking money from Larry's big,

bearish, blue -eyed ass.

Blue -eyed?

I don't know what color his eyes are.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a bet
to win.

Connie, what are you doing?

Oh, no, not Clyde. Yes, Clyde.

Connie.

Hi.

Clyde, I need you to pretend to be my
date.

Did you say you wanted to go on a date
with me?

Nope. I said I wanted you to pretend to
be my date.

That works.

So, the iguana.

Oh, right. I'll be right back.

How does my saying, you're leaving now,
end up with you inside the fridge? I

know. It's crazy, right?

So, uh, how's the date gone?

Could be going better.

Anything I can do to help?

Yeah, let me think about that. Oh, yeah,
actually, no, I know what you can do.

Get the hell out.

Oh, very nice. You know, Ben, I would
love to, but I have a lot of work to do.

That supposedly three -quarters finished
file you gave me, it's a little closer

to two -thirds finished.

Give me the file. I will finish it in
the morning.

Goodbye. No can do. I got a little bet
going on with Connie.

Bet with Connie?

Hmm.

What does that mean?

Oh, nothing.

It's just that last time we were with
Kate and Connie, all you wanted to do

get away from her, and now I can't get
you to leave. That, Larry, is a thing

that makes me go, hmm.

How dare you?

If you think that even for a moment I'm
enjoying hanging out with that shrill,

vanilla -scented shrew, you are sorely
mistaken, my man.

I thought you loved vanilla.

I don't get to stand here and listen to
this.

And yet you're not moving.

Connie, would this even count as a
victory?

A date is a date.

Okay.

We're ready.

Oh, I thought... You were just getting
him dressed.

Okay, fine.

By the way, your name is Dale. Just
follow my lead.

So eat your heart out if you're not too
full from eating crow.

Nope, you've got room.

What's going on?

Oh, you're going to want to watch this.

What's that smell?

Oh, man, the food.

So this is your date, huh?

Yeah.

Okay.

Hi, my name's Larry, and you are?

Dale. Ah, Dale. There it is. All right.
So, Dale, how long have you been going

out with our Connie here?

This would be... I'm speaking to Dale.

Dale can speak for himself, can't you?

Yeah. So how many dates have you been on
with Connie?

This would be our... third date.

And where do you live?

New York.

Harry, leave him alone and pay up. And
where did you two meet?

New York.

That sounds romantic.

All right, Connie, geez, Louise, you
know, I know when I've been beat, and I

have been beat. I have one quick
question for you, Dale. Are you aware

have an iguana on your shoulder?

Yeah, we go everywhere together. I've
had Janine for two years.

You have had her for two years?

I'm confused then. She belongs to you?

Then why on her collar does it say, if
found, return to Clyde Thomas?

You wouldn't happen to be Clyde Thomas,
would you?

Oh, he's good.

Damn it, Clyde. Oh, shaboom. Thank you,
Clyde. The ruse is over.

I'm sorry. It's ruined.

I disagree.

I think it looks pretty tasty.

Yours is melted to the plate.

Why is that one mine?

I'm not leaving until you pay me. A date
showed up, so you're not leaving until

you pay me.

Okay. You know what?

We're getting out of here. Really? Yeah.
Bring your work.

I will buy you a burger. A burger? Oh!

Coming through?

Kate, I'm... Shush!

Ben? No.

Ben Parr?

Yeah, that's me.

Steak!

That was a little rude.

What did you expect after you nearly
killed Ben?

Don't act like this is my fault.

I don't blame you. I don't. I blame the
person who slammed a door into my

friend's skull.

Oh, wait. That was you.

Because I had to get away from you.

That friend blew the lid off your Jimmy
Buffett date scam.

Excuse me. Yeah. Your friend forgot to
fill out his paperwork. Would you mind

seeing that he does?

Oh, you got it. Yeah.

What? You're flirting with a nurse like
you have a shot in hell.

Oh, please.

I could get her.

Larry, I know two things.

You can't get women, and the Knicks are
prone to turnovers late in the game.

You? I hustled you.

Why are you gasping again? Because I
wasn't sure, but now I am.

You bet, you bet.

Watch me get this nurse's number, all
right?

Prepare to get hustled, Blair.

Yeah, that's not really hustling.

Shut up.

Easiest 200 bucks I ever made.

Excuse me. No.

There you go. All set. Now I'm going to
let you go.

But if you feel woozy, come straight
back.

Wow. You hear that?

What?

Total silence.

Finally alone.

Just let me die.

By the way, this is exactly how I meant
our first date to go, including him.

Thank you, sir. Right on cue.

They should probably get you home.

They don't deserve it, but I'm going to
go tell those two idiots that you're

okay.

That's a tough break, kid.

First date sets the tone.

What is wrong with you? All I wanted was
to have dinner with this guy I really

like. But we couldn't get any time
together because the two of you couldn't

fighting like two kids on a car trip.

I believe if we are going to point the
finger of blame, it should go in this

direction. You mean the sausage of
blame?

No, I mean the... Stop it! Stop it!

Okay, here's how this is going to go.
There's a cab waiting outside for you

You two are going to get in it and kiss
each other or punch each other or

whatever it is you have to do. You, I
promise I will help you with your lease

agreements later, but right now you and
I are going on a date. I'm sorry that

I'm yelling at you.

So, cab fare wise? Get out.

Wow, I can't tell you how attractive you
are right now. Yeah, and I can't tell

you. How many of you there are right
now?

Oh, boy.

Let me get the doctor. No, no, no, no,
no, no. I'm fine.

Get the doctor.

You owe me $200, by the way.

No. Really?

Mm -hmm. That nurse's phone number is
just a series of ones.

You don't know every phone number. Why
don't I dial it then?

All right, yeah, dial it. It's a good
idea.

There's a text from Dale.

Let me see that. Let me see that.

Oh, hey, Con.

Can't make it super sick. How about this
weekend?

Frowny face.

Frowny face?

Is Dale by any chance a teenage girl?

What are you doing?

I'm going home. A gentleman might offer
a lady his cap.

A lady might run a brush through her
hair every once in a while.

No, no, no, no, no. One cap.

One cap.

No, no, no, no, no.

Where are they?

So this is heaven?

You tell me.

Wow. This is a proper date.

In every relationship, there are going
to be obstacles. You can either find

way around them. It's getting a little
late. Maybe I should just come over and

crash at your place.

Or you can try to ignore them.

Connie?

Connie, I know you can hear me.

Connie!

I know you can hear me.

Got it!

Got it!

Connie, hi.

Hi, Clyde.

So, um, we're in a bit of a bind.

Uh, I was wondering if you could come in
and pretend that your name is Jill.

Who are we pretending for?

Oh.
