[Music]

We're in this 13 room.

>> How can I help you?

>> Uh, large coffee, please. Black.

>> Great.

Preference.

>> The house blend is fine.

>> Wait,

how about a squirt of hazelnut?

>> Yeah, it's a good choice.

and a scone.

>> Okay.

>> Got to live a little, right?

>> Yeah, absolutely.

>> Is there something wrong?

>> No. Uh, just in case I walk away and you

wanted to add to the order. Is there

anything you wanted to add? I mean, it's

good for business every time I walk

away.

>> That's it?

>> Yeah. Really?

>> I'll take it to your table.

What?

There you go. Enjoy it.

>> Wait.

>> Yes.

>> You don't even want to hear the verdict?

>> Oh, yeah. Please.

>> That's delicious.

>> Right.

>> Honestly, I wasn't even sure I liked

hazelnuts.

>> So, the best hazelnuts in the world are

grown in Oregon, which is where that is

cold pressed on site.

I'm Jane

>> David. Nice to meet you.

>> I to meet you.

>> Feel like you've never been in here

before because I think I would have

remembered you.

>> Yeah, my usual coffee shop was closed

for renovations.

>> This is just a few blocks from my house.

I I walk past here all the time. I just

have never stopped in.

>> Well, their loss is our game.

May I

>> please?

>> So,

do you work here full-time

>> for Something's Brewing? Yeah, I do.

Well, we have stores all throughout the

city, so I kind of just go wherever they

need me.

>> Kind of like a coffee ambassador,

>> right? Yeah, I like that. Can I use

that? That's that's that's good.

What do you do? What's your line of

work?

>> Well,

up until about 24 hours ago, I was the

senior vice president of a large

marketing firm.

>> I see. Sounds like there's a story

there.

>> Story for another time.

>> Let's make that happen.

Make what happen?

>> Another time.

>> Let me take you out.

>> Uh,

sure.

>> Great.

>> Yeah. Great.

I'm going to let you finish your coffee

and your scone before you change your

mind. I think myself is scarce.

>> Oh, David, I haven't paid yet. Yeah. No,

it's fine. Enjoy. Pay later. And

free number.

Mine. Yours.

>> I have no idea what to wear.

>> It's a date, Jane. It hasn't been that

long since you've been on one.

>> Well, yeah, but it's not a date date.

>> What's a date date?

>> You know, the kind where if it goes

well, you think it might turn into

something more serious.

>> And this isn't that.

>> Cass, he's a traveling barista and I'm

only going to be in town for another 3

weeks. It's not exactly a good

foundation for a longterm relationship.

>> Then why go at all?

>> You know, I asked myself that very

question. And what did you come up with?

>> He's sweet and he's charming and he's

really good-looking and after everything

I've been through, I think I deserve to

have a little fun.

>> Hey, you'll get no argument from me, but

you just don't sound like the Jane I

know.

>> Yeah, well, the Jane that you know was

fired and cheated on all in the same

day. I didn't see either one coming.

So, maybe it's time to switch things up

a little bit, you know? Okay. Okay. I

won't say anything else. Just go have

fun.

>> Jame.

>> Hi.

>> Hi.

>> You look great.

>> Me?

>> Yeah, you.

>> Thank you.

>> You're welcome.

>> What's this? I thought we were going out

to eat. This is what's known as a picnic

basket. You ever seen one of these

before?

>> Only in the movies.

>> Well, now it's coming to you live in

person. We're going to go try one of

these out. It's actually uh spot walking

distance from here. How do those things

walk?

>> Guess we'll see.

>> All right, let's go. I mean, once we hit

grass, maybe you just take them off.

>> Okay.

>> I mean, I'll take mine off. You take

yours off.

All right.

[Music]

So, you obviously know a little more

than coffee.

>> I've been called a foodie before. It's

fine. But now it's funny. When I was a

kid, most kids want pizza. I wanted

pate.

>> I bet that got very expensive for your

parents.

>> Sure. And probably very annoying, too.

>> 10 years I've lived in this city, and I

had no idea this place even existed.

>> It's definitely one of the city's unsung

gems, for sure. I didn't know about it

until maybe five years ago when I got

into urban fishing.

>> Urban fishing?

>> Yeah, it's totally a thing. Most people

go in streams or rivers, maybe even the

ocean, but you know, every city has got

a great spot like this. You just you got

to get out there and find it.

>> Well, I'm just happy we're not fishing

for our lunch today.

>> Oh, no. We would definitely not be

eating any fish that comes out of there.

No way. You want some wine?

>> Sure.

This is a Australian. It's from the

Barrosa Valley.

Was really into Italian wines for a

while. Just kind of got burnt out. So,

I've been drinking a lot of wines from

from South Africa and Australia. So, try

it.

>> Cheers.

>> Cheers.

I like it. It's fruier than what I'm

used to.

>> And she's got a great palette. See, you

know your wine. You know your coffee.

>> Well, I'm still an amateur when it comes

to wine, but I come by my coffee

knowledge. Honestly,

before I was let go, one of my biggest

accounts was Curving Coffee.

>> Really? Yeah. They're they're big.

>> Yeah, they keep getting bigger every

day. I handled their account for years

and I didn't need to be an expert on

coffee, but it did help me to educate

myself if I was going to handle their

marketing.

>> Yeah, sure.

>> Do you carry their brand in your stores?

>> We do not carry their brand because it

would just compete with ours, so it

wouldn't make sense. But I I've had

their coffee. It's Yeah, it's not bad.

>> Yeah, I like it.

You know so much about wine and coffee

and shuerie.

Have you ever thought about doing

something on your own?

>> I'm sorry.

I should mind my own business.

>> No, no, it's fine. Uh, it's just

I'm happy where I am

to being happy where we are.

Cheers.

>> Cheers.

[Music]

Thank you for today. I had a really

wonderful time.

>> Oh, that's great. Yeah, so did I.

>> Next time, bring the fishing poles.

>> All right, so that means that there's

going to be a next time.

>> Well, that depends.

>> On

>> on you.

I'm an oldfashioned kind of gal. Well, I

would very much like there to be a next

time if you oblige me. Miss

>> call me.

>> I will.

[Music]

I want all the juicy details before our

French toast comes.

>> There are no juicy details. He was a

perfect gentleman. I put off a showing

this morning. Dear all about it, and

this is what you give me.

>> What do you want me to say?

>> The whole point of this was to have fun,

not to take things slow like it's a real

relationship.

>> I know. I know. It's just he's a lot

more different than I would have

thought.

>> How so?

>> He's very

dreamy.

>> He is very dreamy. But that's not what I

was going to say.

He's very sophisticated, that's all.

>> Any news on the job front or are you

really throwing in the towel until you

leave? A

>> few head hunters have reached out, but I

haven't gotten back to them.

>> I'm only going to say this one more

time,

>> Cass. No, please. I as much as I love

you, I just I can't.

>> I just don't understand why. I've been

telling you for years to come to work

for us. The hours are good. The pay is

competitive

>> because I've spent my entire career in

food, not real estate.

>> Marketing is marketing. It would take

you a week to get up to speed and after

that you'd feel right at home.

>> I just I can't make a decision like that

right now.

>> One day at a time, huh?

It's okay. I get it.

So, the big question is, are you going

to see David again?

>> You know, I haven't decided yet.

How in the world did you find out about

this place?

>> Can you believe we're only a/4 mile from

one of our stores?

>> It's like a world away.

>> Hey, you know, that's that's the point.

>> You know, being with you, it's like I'm

a tourist in my own town.

>> I mean, Something's Brewing's got stores

all over the city, and I I try and work

in all of them. And the reason being is

so I can get out and explore the

surrounding areas.

>> You're like a walking talking guide

book.

>> You know, you live in a city, you forget

about how close nature is. And I don't

know about you, but I need to get out

and and be reminded.

[Music]

I was so obsessed with my work. I never

stopped to smell the roses.

Literally.

[Music]

Are you allowed to do that?

>> Probably not.

>> Beautiful.

>> Stop it.

>> Absolutely. Positively

beautiful.

[Music]

>> But do you think

maybe we should get going?

>> Really? We could stay here forever. I

mean feel like I can too except uh

sorry I just have allergies.

Yeah, I'm fine except I think

>> Are you sure?

>> Yeah. It's just

Yeah, it's good. I just Do you have a

tissue? Did you

>> Let's Let's get you some.

>> Can I use the sleeves? You would know.

You would never know. You can't see it.

But

you know when they don't come out when

you just like come on. You're stuck. I'm

stuck. I'm in between sneezes. That's

what

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

May I help you?

>> Jane Peterson to see Ellen Rogers.

>> Please have a seat. I'll let her know

you're here. Okay.

Miss Rogers will see you now if you'll

follow me.

>> Okay,

Jane Peterson. A pleasure to

>> The pleasure's mine.

>> Have a seat.

Thank you for agreeing to see me so

quickly.

>> Of course. Let's get some light in here.

>> Well, I am sorry to hear about what

happened at XFactor.

>> Oh, if you don't mind me asking, how did

you hear?

>> Well, I'm head of recruitment here at

Peterson Stro, so it's my job to know

these things. And perhaps one company's

loss may be our game.

>> Well, since you made the effort to reach

out to me, Mr. Rogers. I

>> Please, please call me Ellen.

>> Ellen, I feel obligated to tell you that

I haven't even considered my next move

yet.

>> I understand and I am not in a position

to offer you anything yet anyway. But I

did want to tell you that I have been

following your career and I am very

impressed. Your former clients speak

very highly of you.

>> Well, I've been fortunate to work with

some really strong brands.

>> Always stronger after you took over

their accounts. Now, I don't want to

take up too much of your time, but once

you figured out what it is that you want

to do and if the idea of a multinational

marketing firm appeals to you again,

then we can talk more specifics.

>> Well, one thing I do know for sure,

Ellen, is wherever I decide to go next,

I will need the option to work remotely.

I don't plan on living in the city much

longer.

>> Oh, well, we do prefer that our senior

executives work on site,

>> but you know what? We can just cross

that bridge and come to it.

Sounds great.

>> Great. Thank you for coming in.

>> Thank you so much.

>> Sure. Have a good day.

>> You too.

[Music]

>> Hi.

>> How are you?

>> I'm good. Real good actually.

Is there any chance that I can take you

out to dinner tonight?

>> Maybe

on one condition.

>> Oh, okay. What's that?

>> You let me pick the place. Prove to you

I know just as much about this city as

you do.

>> Okay, fair enough.

>> Have you ever been to Blue Moon?

>> Have not. I have heard of it, though.

>> It's It's my favorite. How about I pick

you up and we go together?

>> Um, I it's probably better if I just I

meet you there actually.

>> You sure? I know the best way to get

there.

>> Yeah. Uh, no. Well, it's just um I'm

probably going to have to come from work

directly, so it it'll be easier if I

just meet you there.

>> Okay.

So, um, see you tonight.

7. Okay,

>> that's perfect. I'll see you then.

>> Bye.

>> So,

>> so

>> tell me.

>> I'll tell you.

>> How long have you worked at the coffee

shop?

>> Actually,

since I graduated college.

>> Where you majored in coffee studies? I

assume

>> they were offering that. I missed it. I

actually survived college off instant

coffee and whatever cheap swell they

were serving down at the union. Yeah.

So, it wasn't until my graduation

present which my grandparents gave me.

Um was a espresso maker, but it was one

of those big like brass amazing ones

that belong in a museum, you know. I

Yeah, they got that for me. And I had

one espresso out of there. I was hooked.

That was it. Yeah. But but what what

about you?

>> What about me?

>> Well, did you always want to be a

highowered marketing executive?

>> Uh well, after Ballerina and Equestrian

and Astronaut all fell through, I kind

of just fell into it, you know, as one

does.

>> Yeah. Yeah. I mean, did you ever

consider like merging those two, like

equestrian

and astronaut or something?

>> Yeah, I discovered I was allergic to

horses and afraid of heights.

>> Bummer.

>> That's a tough one to overcome.

>> I I I was serious, by the way. Serious.

>> I don't know any marketing executives

that plan to do it as a career.

And in my case, I got a job writing copy

for an energy drink company right out of

college and I moved over to XFactor when

they won the account.

Um, I liked it well enough that I kept

getting promoted so I stayed. I I knew a

marketing executive once that I worked

with at the coffee shop who I hope to

never see ever again, but that's a story

for another time. Um,

>> okay. Well, let's talk about something a

little more important,

>> please.

>> Food.

>> Great. I like it.

>> Do you like this place so far?

>> I This wine selection is amazing. This

atmosphere is uh

[Music]

sublime. Is that when people use that

word when they're not talking about the

band? Um, the company is uh Yeah.

>> So, have you really never been here

before?

>> I have really never been here before.

>> Is it close to your house?

>> Uh, yeah. Well, uh, you know, it's uh,

What are you ordering here?

>> What are you getting? Uh, normally I get

the but I don't think I want something

so heavy tonight.

>> Okay.

>> What about you?

>> I am going to order the longest thing on

the menu, which is the pistachio crusted

brook trout, which will be interesting

cuz I'm allergic to nuts, but I'm a man

of my word, so I'm going to do it.

>> Sounds delicious.

>> Yeah.

I mean, is there anything better

>> than

>> than the city at night?

>> You know, when I was little, my family

and I, we used to drive our car into the

city, and we parked right in front of

the big Christmas tree.

>> And I remember looking at that tree and

thinking, "There must be more lights on

that tree than there are stars in the

sky."

>> Is that silly?

>> No. No. I think it's great, actually.

>> This is me. I Yeah, I remember.

>> Thank you for dinner.

>> Thank me. Thank you for

taking me to that place. It was great.

Except

>> what?

>> I mean, no dessert. How How do we go to

that place and just not get dessert? I

actually I think you're a monster.

>> I was cold.

>> No. Setting me up. You know, you were

like, "No, we're not going to get the

cuz we're going to get that delicious

flowerless chocolate cake that that

guy's talking about." At the end, you're

just like, "Nah, I can't do it. I can't

do it." Left behind track.

>> Torture.

>> Torture.

>> Terrible. And I would love to do it

again sometime.

>> Definitely.

>> Okay.

Good night.

>> Good night.

[Music]

I don't know, Cass. I I feel like I'm

following you.

>> So what? Just because you didn't plan

for this doesn't mean it can't happen.

>> Alone. No, I just I can't shake this

feeling that he's hiding something from

me.

You think he's a spy?

>> Very funny.

>> A polygamist.

>> Cassie, I'm trying to be serious.

>> Jamie, look.

>> You already know he's a barista. He

knows you're an executive. What could he

be hiding?

>> He didn't want me to see this place. He

He wouldn't even tell me where he lived.

>> Maybe it's a shoe box apartment. And

maybe he's embarrassed.

>> I don't know. I think it's something

else.

You just told me you like him, right?

>> So, don't let what happened with Aiden

Color.

>> That's not what I'm doing.

>> Do you think that's what I'm doing?

>> What I do know is that you vow to have

some fun before you leave the city. So,

have your fun. Don't worry about it.

>> You're right. You're right.

What?

>> What?

>> He's really good looking.

>> See, that's what I'm talking about. Not

everything has to be so serious. You're

allowed to enjoy yourself. What if

that's what I want?

Something serious.

>> Ooh. Then, Miss Jie, we have a problem.

But trust me, it's a good problem to

have.

[Music]

Don't forget special.

Thank you.

[Music]

Come

on.

[Music]

What

[Music]

do you think?

[Music]

Don't stay away.

>> I know. I know. I'm sorry. Believe me, I

I'm going through the best excuse to

tell you.

>> Rogue or Strike?

>> Excuse me? Oh, is your kid a rogue or a

strike?

Oh. Uh,

rogue. My Tiffany, she's a strike.

So, she's on Coach David's team.

You know Butch David?

>> No, I I've just heard of him. Oh,

>> I heard he was really good with the

girls. He's the best. He's so patient,

understanding.

You know, he is singing.

Really?

If only.

But a girl can still browse the

merchandise, can't she?

Oh. Uh, excuse me.

>> Oh, yeah.

>> Yeah. Normally

>> Hi. What are you doing here?

>> Are you busy?

>> Not at all. Here.

>> What's wrong?

>> I did it. I followed him. Cass, I

followed David.

>> What do you mean?

>> Exactly what I said. I I went to the

coffee shop. I waited for him to get off

and I followed him. Why? What do you

think? To see where he went. To see why

he wouldn't tell me where he lived.

>> And what did you find, Sherlock?

Well, he went to a park.

>> Oh, the plot thickens.

>> Let me finish. He went to a park because

he coaches a little girl softball team

and I'm pretty sure that one of the

girls is his daughter. You sure?

>> No, I'm not sure. Sure. But he had his

arm around one of the little girls. And

how many guys coach a little girl

softball team unless one of them is

their daughter?

>> He never mentioned his daughter to you?

>> No. I mean, I I would remember something

like that. Well, look, you have to ask

him. It's as simple as that.

>> Yeah, really simple. What am I going to

say? Oh. Oh, hi, David. Things were

going so great between us that I decided

to follow you. And by the way, do you

have a daughter?

>> Well, I wouldn't put it exactly like

that, you know.

>> There's no good way to put it.

>> Well, you have to say something.

>> I know. I know. I know. I have I I have

to do something. I just I don't know

what. I'm sorry to bother your work.

>> Never a bother. Always a welcome

distraction.

Wow.

I know.

[Music]

[Music]

Hello.

>> Hi, it's David. I know. I know your

voice by now.

>> Then I'm going to have to start

disguising it going forward.

>> I just wanted to see if you were free

for dinner tomorrow.

>> Tomorrow?

>> I don't know.

>> Okay. Well, did you want to let me know?

>> I'll call you.

>> Is everything okay, Jane?

>> Yeah. Yeah, everything's fine. I'll call

you. I promise.

>> Okay.

Good night.

>> Good night, David.

[Music]

Hey,

>> I need a favor.

>> Oh, boy.

>> You're a realtor.

>> Last time I checked,

>> I need you to find David's address for

me.

>> No.

>> What? I said no. I I hate to refuse you,

Janie, but I'm not going to enable you

anymore. Okay? If you want his address,

ask him.

>> I can't.

>> Why not?

>> Because I don't want to.

>> Listen, you can find his address as

easily as I can. Tax records are public

documents.

>> I can't. I already tried.

>> Cass, how long have we been friends?

>> A long time.

>> And in all of that time, have I ever

asked you for a favor? I mean, a real

favor.

>> Not that I can remember.

>> Well, I'm asking you now.

>> If I get this for you, will you talk to

him? Have an honest conversation?

>> Yes, I will. I promise.

Oh, hold on.

And now I have to go. Thank you, Cass. I

love you. Okay, bye.

>> Hello.

>> Hello, Jane. It's Ellen Rogers with

Peters and Stro.

>> Hi. Good morning.

>> Good morning. I wanted to call and tell

you that I have been thinking more about

our conversation and I know I said that

working remotely is not an optimal

situation for our company, but there may

be some leeway. If that's the case,

would you be interested in talking

further?

>> I would. Thank you.

>> Great. I will be in touch and we can set

something up.

>> That sounds great. Thank you, Ellen.

>> Goodbye, Jane.

Good evening, ma'am. How are you?

>> I'm good.

>> What can I get for you?

>> I'll have what she's having.

>> You owe me big time and drinks on you

tonight because I have to pay fee.

>> Okay, of course. Anything.

What's

What's this?

>> What do you think? It's his address.

Do you know where this is?

>> I'm in real estate, Janie. Of course I

know where that is.

>> This doesn't make any sense.

>> You asked me for the address. You didn't

ask me to explain it.

>> And you're sure it's his.

>> It's in his name. He pays the taxes. But

hey, I know one way to be sure. Ask him.

>> I don't know. I want to. I just don't

want to ruin anything.

>> If the two of you have something you're

afraid of ruining, then you definitely

deserve to know the truth.

>> I know. I know. You're right.

I can tell you one thing. This man of

yours has got a lot more interesting

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

David. Hi.

>> Hi.

>> What are you What are you doing here?

>> Huh? That's funny. I was going to ask

you the same thing.

>> I was just

I I was just going for a walk.

>> Oh, yeah.

>> In the neighborhood.

Okay. I I thought it was weird how

evasive you were being about where you

lived and so I I got curious.

>> So you followed me?

>> No.

I had my friend Cassie, who is a real

estate agent, hold your tax record so I

could reel it.

>> I don't know if that's what better, but

you could just ask me directly.

>> I know that's what she said.

So this is yours then?

>> Yeah.

>> So you're not really a barista then?

>> Well, baristas

by definition prepare and serve coffee.

So technically I Yeah, I'm a barista.

>> But that's not all you are.

>> Something's Brewing is my store.

I own it.

All of them.

Yeah, I I opened my first one after I

got out of college.

It went well.

So, for the last decade, we've been

opening store after store.

H

>> how many stores do you own? How many?

>> 47.

Eddie,

what about your daughter?

>> How do you know about her?

>> I saw you two together at the softball

game.

>> So, you were following us? I

>> I I didn't follow you today.

>> Today?

>> Oh, okay. All right. Look, you have

every reason to be mad at me. I invaded

your privacy. And it's just that the

more time we spent together, the less it

felt like.

>> I didn't say I was mad at you.

>> You're not.

>> No. No. But but I interrupted you.

Sorry. Saying something about the more

time that we were spending together. I

didn't want to stop you there.

The more time we spent together,

the less it felt like this was just

something I was doing to have fun before

I left.

It felt like this could be real.

[Music]

>> Do you know anything about sprinklers?

>> No.

>> Since you're here, I'm kidding. You want

to come in for a drink?

>> Come on.

>> Sure.

>> I was really kidding about a sprinkler

thing, but if you do know something, I

could use all the help I could get cuz I

don't know what is going on. I can't fix

this.

[Music]

>> Come over there.

Wow, you certainly know how to make an

impression.

>> This Yeah, it's uh I don't know. It's

It's a gigantic

see-through refrigerator. I I like wine.

I don't know. There's more interesting

parts of the house.

>> My It's so beautiful.

>> Thanks. Yeah, I can only take credit for

two decisions. I hired the architects. I

hired the interior designer. That's it.

>> Okay. So, tell me, if you own the

company, then why do you work

>> work in the stores? Because I find

office work soul crushing. I can never

just sit behind a desk. That's why I

have a CFO and an attorney and all the

people in the office. They do that stuff

for me. And I like to work in the

trenches. You know what better place to

get market research than right there in

front of the customer, you know? So, I

like being a barista.

>> Yeah.

>> Plus, you get to see more of the city

that way.

>> I was honest about all of that. Okay.

Like, how else would I know about all

these great places that other people

don't know exist?

>> You could have told me, you know, you

could have told me the truth.

>> But would you look at me the same way?

Exactly.

>> Oh, is this your daughter?

>> Yeah, it's Mandy. She is 10 now.

>> Oh, she looks just like you.

>> Oh, it's so for her sake that changes.

>> She's adorable.

>> Thank you.

>> And her mom?

>> Divorced? Yeah. uh about five years now.

There's no juicy story there. Just

college sweethearts that never should

have been married.

So,

>> does Mandy live with her mom?

>> Uh, we've joined custody. So, Mandy

spits her time between the two of us.

>> It's amiable.

>> No.

Do you like kids?

>> Sure.

I haven't really been around them that

much. So,

>> do you want to meet her?

>> Does she normally meet your girlfriends?

I mean, not I didn't mean it like that.

Not girlfriends,

but does she normally meet, you know?

>> I Hey, I know what she meant. And no,

she has never met one of my girlfriends.

>> What? What? What is it?

>> It's just so big.

>> Yeah, I know. It's a bit much for a

single guy. I get it. Um,

we moved in here shortly after Mandy was

born. So, it's

the only home she's ever known.

>> I think I'd like to meet her.

>> Great.

>> But for now, there's something else I

want to show you in the kitchen.

>> Okay.

>> Yeah. Come on. It's my tequila

collection. You're like Cinderella.

>> Cinderella?

>> You're the simple girl who got swept off

her feet by a handsome and wealthy

prince.

>> Thanks.

>> Yeah, I wasn't exactly sweeping floors,

you know.

>> Ladies, your table is now available if

you'll follow me.

>> Thank you.

>> Thank you.

>> Okay. You don't look as happy as you

should be.

Well, he lied to me, Cass.

>> Thank you.

>> He didn't lie. He simply held back the

whole truth.

>> That's a lie in my book.

>> Well, can you blame him? Really? Imagine

how many women are interested in him for

his money. He needs to protect his

daughter

>> from me.

>> Anyone he's interested in. Kids can get

confused.

>> Well, I'm confused. I mean, where's this

relationship even going? I'm still

leaving in a few weeks.

>> No one's forcing you to.

>> Well, Cassie has a kid.

>> So,

>> so I'm not exactly the maternal type.

>> And a week ago, you weren't the type to

give an ordinary barista a second look.

Where did you leave it with him?

>> Janie, I'm meeting her. The daughter.

>> When?

>> This weekend. We're going to the

aquarium.

Less pressure that way.

>> On who?

>> I don't know. The fish.

>> It'll be fine. She'll love you. Just be

yourself.

>> I don't know. When kids get involved,

it's just You like him, right?

>> You know I do.

>> Then you have to take the whole package.

And from what you're telling me so far,

the package is pretty great.

>> Let's eat. Let's see. I'm starving.

[Music]

>> I think one of them sees me.

>> Oh, honey. I I don't think that is true

cuz jellyfish don't have eyes.

>> Then how do they know where they're

going?

>> They have sensors. So, it's sort of like

a light sensor that sort of indicates

where they're supposed to turn. And then

>> I don't think that's a thing.

>> It is totally a thing. Do you see a

brain in there? I I They have no central

nervous system,

>> so they'll never be nervous.

>> How do you know so much about jellyfish?

I I used to go down to the seashore to

visit my grandparents every summer and I

used to get stung a lot. So, I started

to learn about them.

>> Dad, you got stung?

>> Yes, many times. And you know what I

gathered from all my research? You see a

jellyfish, you stay away.

>> I can't touch any of them.

>> No, absolutely not. But if you want to,

there I saw actually something really

cool down this hallway.

This guy. Get this guy. Oh, he turned.

Come on.

>> They're like sand,

>> right? They're little tiny teeth that

they have. Honey, cuz they have the same

kind of skin as sharks.

>> Will they bite me?

>> They don't bite. They don't bite. They

just swallow 10-year-old girls.

>> They don't waste any time. Of course,

it's not dangerous, honey.

>> How's one with me? Uh,

>> I don't know. He's

just sticking water. I think it's fine.

>> And once comes by, hand over.

>> No. No. You got to get deep. Come on.

You got to really reach in there. Come

on. Get him.

>> Come on. Here comes my line up. Got to

reel them in.

Go. No. No.

[Music]

Um. Should we maybe get something to eat

before we go home? Honey, are you

hungry?

>> Sure. Hey, can we see the sharks first?

>> Yes, great idea. After we wash our

hands. Okay.

>> So, what was your favorite thing to see

today? The jellyfish.

>> No, the sea anemone.

>> The sea anemone? Why

>> are you listening? The sea anemone can

just pop off clones of himself whenever

they want. You'll never have to be

lonely.

Honey, you have plenty of friends. You

have nothing to worry about.

>> Do I look like you're seeing them, do

you?

>> Fair enough. It's pretty good.

>> So, do you work for my dad or something?

>> No, honey, I don't.

But we did meet in one of his stores.

>> Well, can I tell you a secret?

>> Sure.

>> I hate coffee.

Well,

>> I hated it, too, when I was

Better learn to love it, kiddo, if

you're going to take over the business

one day. Just

>> saying.

>> I'll never do that.

>> What do you want to do when you grow up,

Mandy?

>> I want to be a veterinarian.

>> Marian, I think that's an excellent

idea.

>> Thank you.

>> It's like a salon, but they call it a

tube.

>> Yeah. I don't know. I don't come up with

this stuff. Um, I would invite you in,

but somebody has got to get ready. Your

mother's coming to pick you up.

>> I know. I know. You told me like 10

thousand times.

>> Yeah, I just never know if you're

listening to me.

>> I'm always listening. It

>> It's okay. I got to get going anyway.

But thank you for allowing me to come

with you today. I had the best time and

it was really wonderful to meet you.

[Music]

>> He's ever introduced me to one of his

lady friends before.

>> Hey, what are you doing? You're not

going to get far without these, Missy.

Good catch.

Thank you, Klein, sir.

>> Bye.

>> Hurry up. Get packing.

>> So, you really had a good time?

>> I did. I had a wonderful time. Thank

you.

>> Uh, she's right. You know, I have not

introduced her to any of my friends.

>> Well, that makes me feel really special.

>> Oh my gosh. What just happened in there?

My daughter, by the way, she is very

clumsy. You should know that it would.

>> That didn't sound good.

>> No. Oh, okay. I got to get in there. Uh,

Coy.

>> Okay.

[Music]

Oh, good morning.

Speedy delivery.

>> I didn't order a handsome delivery man

this morning. Sorry.

>> No, fine. Fine. That's fine. You know,

people wait in line for this stuff. Now,

this is a hazelnut coffee if you want it

and a cinnamon scone. Not the mixed

berry that you had the other day, but

arguably a better combination.

>> You remembered.

>> Occupational hazard. Orders. I never

forget. Names, faces,

but never orders.

>> Well, thank you. If I'm going to be

woken up, I can't think of a better way.

>> Good. I'm glad. Except I can't take full

credit. It's actually Mandy's idea. She

wanted to thank you for the other day.

She's like, "Dad, flowers are so lame."

And I'm like, "Okay, fine.

>> Well, I do love flowers, but I'll take a

coffee and a pastry over them any day."

>> Good. Well, enjoy them. Maybe back in

bed.

>> Wait, could you Did you want to come in

or

>> I'll call you later.

[Music]

[Music]

I want to thank you for coming in with

such short notice.

>> Oh, it's my pleasure. Really,

>> this isn't the kind of conversation I

like to have on the phone. To be frank,

it's not very often we get a chance to

get someone with your reputation and

experience. Now, I know I told you about

how our company feels about working

remotely, but I did talk to a few of our

partners, and they've all agreed. If you

do decide to join us, we're willing to

work with you.

>> That's very generous, Ellen. Thank you.

>> But you would have to hammer out all the

details with the VP of personnel, of

course. And not that we're committing to

anything yet, either of us. I just

wanted to gauge your interest and let

you know that you'd be overseeing the

Brew and View account.

Brewin View.

>> Yes, they're one of our largest

accounts. And because of your experience

with Caribbean Coffee, we thought you'd

be a perfect fit.

>> Can I think about it?

>> Of course. Yes. Go home, think about it,

and call me at your earliest

convenience.

[Music]

[Music]

Hi, you reach David know what to do.

Thanks.

>> Hey, David, it's Jane.

I was just calling to say thank you for

the coffee and scone. You're right. I

did prefer the cinnamon.

Uh give me a call whenever you get this.

I I need to talk to you about something

in in person would be better.

Okay. So yeah, call me.

[Music]

I'm so glad that you

>> said you didn't want me just walk on in.

So I buzz first. The main door was

already open.

[Music]

>> So you're really moving out, huh?

>> Did you have any doubt?

>> Kind of hoping you'd reconsider.

Anyway, you think I should borrow a few

of your boxes?

>> You came here to move all your stuff out

and you didn't bring any moving boxes? I

just have my clothes and a few books.

You could toss the toiletries and

honestly everything we bought together

you can keep.

>> Oh, great. I think I'm going to get a

lot of use out of that basketball hoop

for the bathroom.

>> So, should we uh do this?

>> You think I'm helping you?

>> Two people. It'll go a lot faster.

>> Just hurry up. I have a lot of stuff I

have to do today.

Here

[Music]

you go.

>> Thank you.

>> I know it's over. I understand that and

I accept that it was entirely my fault.

I want you to know that you really were

the best thing that ever happened to

you.

[Music]

[Music]

Hi, you reach David. You know what to

do. Thanks.

>> Hi, David. It's Jane.

I'm sorry to keep calling again. I've

called a few times and sent some text

messages.

I hope

I hope nothing's wrong.

Give me a call when you get this. I

really need to talk to you.

[Music]

[Music]

I know what's happening.

He's ghosting you.

>> What? Ghosting?

>> It's what they call it when one person

in a relationship just suddenly cuts off

all contact with the other.

>> But we weren't even in a relationship.

>> And you can't think of anything that

might have happened. Something you did

or said that may have seemed harmless at

the time.

>> No, I I'm telling you, Cass, it was a

perfect day.

>> Maybe the kid said something to him.

Well, she had the most fun out of

everyone.

>> You never know. Kids are weird.

>> Not this one. Trust me.

>> I made sure not to overstep my bounds.

And she couldn't have been sweeter. She

even hugged me goodbye.

And maybe David didn't like that. You

know, overprotective father not wanting

his daughter to get hurt, you know, when

things end.

>> Well, then why introduce me to her in

the first place?

I don't know. I don't know what to tell

you.

>> It's a mystery.

>> Well, at least there's one thing I don't

have to worry about anymore.

>> What's that?

>> I got offered a job.

>> Great. Where?

>> Peter's instruct. It's a marketing firm.

It's even bigger than X Factor.

>> You're going to take it, right?

>> I haven't decided yet. There's an issue.

>> Salary. Actually, we haven't discussed

it, but I assume it would be

competitive.

>> But they're making you stay in the city.

>> That was a sticking point, but

eventually they caved.

>> What then?

>> One of my accounts, the one that they

would actually be bringing me on to

manage, is one of David's biggest

competitors.

>> Are you crazy?

>> What?

You're seriously considering not taking

the job because of him?

>> Well, I haven't decided on anything yet,

Cass.

>> Janie, come on. I mean, this might be an

issue might be if you were dating him

for years, but you just met him. Plus,

and I don't want to sound insensitive,

but you know, I think he's made it

pretty clear that whatever you thought

the two of you had is over.

It's insane that you're even considering

his feelings right now.

>> Jamie, look at me.

Promise me.

Promise me you'll take the job.

>> What I will promise you is that I'm

going to get an explanation of him.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

There we go.

[Music]

Hi, you reach David. You know what to

do. Thanks.

>> It's pretty obvious you're avoiding me.

So, I don't expect you to return my

call.

I just I just called because I wanted to

tell you

I just I wanted to tell you that that

you're the worst.

I thought we had something something

really special. And for you to just end

things without even the courtesy of an

explanation, it just

it shows me what kind of man you really

are.

[Music]

Say goodbye to Mandy for me.

She's really wonderful.

[Music]

I appreciate how you've been willing to

work with me, Ellen. And because of

that, I am excited to tell you how

thrilled I am to be a part of the Peters

and Stro team. Great. I think you're

going to be a wonderful addition. I just

know it.

>> Thank you. So, you talked to HR,

personnel, benefit, salary.

>> It's all handled. I'm just eager to get

started.

>> Great. I'm going to let you talk to

Felix and he'll explain to you the full

spectrum of your responsibilities, but I

do want you to get started immediately

on Brew and View.

>> I'm just curious, is there any reason

why time is so much of the essence?

Well, Ruin View has a very aggressive

expansion schedule, especially in the

city. And because there's such a finite

amount of real estate, a big part of

your job is going to be to try to take

market share away from their

competitors. Their competitors? Yes. You

know, chains like Steep Wright Inen,

Angelik, Something's Brewing.

[Applause]

[Music]

Hello.

[Music]

Good series.

[Applause]

[Music]

Hi.

>> To what? Do I have this honor?

[Music]

>> You're angry.

>> What do you expect? I tried calling you.

I tried texting you.

Do you know how stupid that makes me

feel?

>> You have to. Just let me explain. I

don't have to do anything.

>> If you give me a few minutes, I I would

like to explain.

[Music]

>> Okay.

>> Carry your groceries.

[Music]

You can just set it on the counter.

>> Okay. So, talk.

>> Hey, should we sit?

>> No, I'm fine. And your few minutes has

already started.

Well, I got your message. I thought I

would just come by and surprise you.

And then when I do, I find you in the

doorway with some guy.

>> That was Aiden, my ex-boyfriend who I

told you about.

>> Okay. Well, you looked awfully

comfortable with him and so, you know, I

couldn't help but feel like the fool.

But really what I'm thinking about the

whole time in the back of my head is my

daughter and how close the two of you

are getting and I really don't want her

getting hurt.

>> So that's why you ghosted me.

>> Ghosted you?

>> No. I just David Aiden was just here

packing up the rest of his things. We're

we're completely finished.

>> Completely.

>> Completely

>> for good.

>> For good.

Why didn't you just ask me about this?

I don't know.

I'm sorry.

Really? I I I should have just asked

you. I I'm sorry.

Okay.

[Music]

And I have to tell you, I have really

missed you. I

>> missed you, too.

[Music]

>> And I I do need to tell you something,

too, actually.

>> Okay.

>> Um maybe maybe we should sit down.

>> Oh, yeah. That was my original idea.

Do you do you want like a a drink or

anything?

[Music]

>> Jane, it kind of seems like you're

stalling now.

>> I accepted a new job

in marketing.

[Music]

>> Great.

>> Yeah. Yeah, it's great.

Um

the the thing is is they hired me

because of

my coffee experience.

>> Okay.

[Music]

>> My clients brew and view.

>> I'm I'm supposed to help them expand

their market share,

[Music]

>> you know.

who that is.

You know

what that means to me. And I'm not

talking about just my competition.

I know. I know. It's just

I mean, isn't there enough coffee to go

around?

>> This is not funny.

>> No, I don't think it's funny. I I didn't

expect you to get so upset about it.

>> How How'd you think I was going to

react,

>> David? If it's not me, it's going to be

somebody else.

>> That's your justification.

You know how much my company means to

me. It It is the way that I take care of

my daughter.

>> It's not personal.

>> Oh, it's personal.

>> Sorry. Okay.

[Music]

Jamie.

>> Janie. Hello.

>> What? What?

>> I said may I

>> Oh, yeah. I'm not hungry anymore.

>> So good.

I give you my food and you won't even

give me advice.

>> I'm sorry, Jenny. This is a decision you

have to make for yourself.

>> Well, I'll make the decision myself.

You're my best friend. That's what

you're here for.

>> What if I give you the wrong advice?

>> Like you said, I'll make the decision. I

just want to know what you think.

>> Okay. You want to know what I really

think?

I know how important your career is to

you and I know how good you are at it.

But the truth is there are other jobs.

There will always be other jobs.

But there's only one David.

>> Wow. I'm surprised.

>> Why?

>> Because just the other day you were the

one who thought I was practically out of

my mind for even considering his

feelings.

>> That was before you told me why he

stopped calling you.

And that's if you really believe him.

>> Of course I believe him. I mean, Aiden

was really at my apartment. And I'm sure

David saw him and misinterpreted things.

>> Oh, there you go.

>> Where do I go?

>> The choice is simple. The man or the

job?

>> Simple. Call that simple.

>> Okay. Well, I said the choice is simple.

The decision.

This just I'm glad I'm not in your

shoes.

Tell me about it.

>> I am sure your head is spinning, but I

promise you things will slow down and

start to make sense.

>> It's fine. Really, I'm used to hitting

the ground running.

>> Good. I'm going to introduce you to

Felix Casper right now, who's been

handling the count temporarily.

>> Come in.

>> This is Felix.

>> Jane, what an absolute pleasure to meet

you. I've been looking forward to your

arrival.

>> Thank you, Felix. I'm glad to be here.

I'll let you two get acquainted. Jane,

just come find me when you're finished.

Okay.

>> Okay.

>> Well,

>> I'm sure you know that other companies

have their thiefs, but I can assure you,

you won't find that here.

>> Bruin View is a very big opportunity for

us, and I could really use your

expertise.

>> That's refreshing to hear.

>> I think you're going to like the

executives over there. They're highly

ambitious, proactive, well capitalized,

so they'll spare no expense going after

the competitors. Now, let me share with

you some of the other details. You can

look at the financial standards at your

leisure, balance sheets, quarterlys,

etc. But I think what's of utmost

importance is the various rows. And tell

me if I'm wrong, but it would be the

most ide

[Music]

David.

>> Yeah.

>> The person you're meeting with is here.

>> What?

>> There's someone waiting for you out in

the cafe. She said she's a coffee

consultant. I don't think I have

anything scheduled today. Do I have

things?

>> No.

>> Do you want me to just tell her that

you're not here then or?

>> No, it's fine. I'll see what it's all

about.

>> Okay.

[Music]

I couldn't do it. I couldn't take the

job.

>> No.

>> Well, technically I did take it, but I

quit my first day.

>> Yeah. Okay.

>> Yeah. When I went in there and I saw all

the details of what I'd be doing in

black and white, I just

I couldn't do it.

I couldn't imagine going into that

office every day knowing that what I was

doing was hurting you.

>> I didn't I didn't want that. That's

>> And And I also

couldn't imagine coming home every day

and not seeing you.

But wait a second. Aren't you still

leaving town?

>> I thought I'd give this city a second

chance.

I met this really wonderful tour guide

who showed me all kinds of places I

never even knew existed.

>> Did you know?

>> What are you going to do about your

apartment? I thought you said your

landlord found another tenant the minute

you gave your notice. Isn't that

>> That's true. That's true.

But Cassie worked her magic and found me

a new place. A lot nicer than my old

one. A lot cheaper, too.

>> Okay. So, also happen to be close by.

Well, that's going to be really

convenient for your new job.

>> David, weren't you listening? I said I

quit that job.

>> I'm not talking about the one you quit.

I'm talking about the one I hope you'll

accept.

>> What are you talking about?

>> Come consult Fry. Something's brewing.

Whatever offer that you turn down, I

will top it.

[Music]

>> Are you just offering me this because

you

>> You're incredibly smart and talented

and you know something about coffee,

right?

>> Just a little bit.

>> That's great.

And that'll just give me another

opportunity to ask you out. And

hopefully he'll accept there, too.

>> Well, that one I'm going to have to

think about.

[Music]

[Music]

Jane. Oh,

>> how you doing, sweetheart?

>> Good. You're coming with us for pizza

tonight, right?

>> Are you kidding? I wouldn't miss it.

>> Okay.

[Music]

Good game.

>> Good game. We lost. What are you talking

about? Good game.

>> Well, that's cuz the coach knows more

about coffee beans than he does

softball.

>> But you can control coffee beans. You

ever try controlling 10-year-olds?

Forget it. Forget it.

Never going to happen.

>> Well, there's always next game.

>> Okay. So, does this mean we got a new

Strikers fan?

>> Sort of.

I kind of have a crush on the coach.

>> Ah, it's too bad.

>> Why is that?

>> Hey, I hear he's hooked up. Head over

heels for some really beautiful girl

that I'd introduce you to. Yep.

[Music]

[Applause]

>> Hey.

You love me.

I love you guys.
