A Dangerous Romance

no!

no!

good night.

Hey, sasha.

No, it was another bust.

Every guy I go out with

Just reminds me of how much I miss tom.

I hate this.

It's okay, I told him that I have to work early tomorrow,

Which, you know, isn't exactly a lie.

Don't you have your own house across the street?

Oh, sorry, sasha.

No, it's just my brother showing up unannounced again.

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow, bye.

You scared the hell out of me.

Did you want something, or are you just here to annoy me?

How was the date?

I don't know. I can't seem to catch a break.

Well, maybe you should take a break

From this app.

Maybe you're right.

If you don't mind, I'm exhausted.

Okay. Tomorrow night, spaghetti dinner,

I bring the garlic bread. Hmm?

Tomorrow's not a good day.

-The weekend? -You just come over

And eat my food anyway. Good night, jack.

Good night.

Your 2:45 p.M. Called to see if you could do 3:45 p.M. Instead?

-Is that okay? -Yeah. Shouldn't be a problem.

Great. And your lawyer emailed?

She said she's waiting for the buyers

To send over the check to the office,

And once she gets that in,

The sale will be officially complete.

20 years to build it up and two months to sell it off.

I know how hard it's been for you.

Managing the company by yourself.

I can't believe it's already been a year.

I know. It just doesn't feel right running the place

Without him.

Well, you are stuck with me for a few more weeks, so.

Yes we are.

-I'm going to go get that. -Yeah.

Kellie.

Hey. What's wrong?

I, um.

I just can't do this. Not tonight.

Talk to me. What's going on?

Today's the anniversary of tom's death.

I just can't do it.

I can't sit in this room tonight.

I just need a break. I just want to shut

Everything off.

I have an idea. Come on.

You're late.

Here's the mark.

You know what to do.

Yeah, I just rough them up a bit.

-Just a scare. -What?

He'll be fine.

-He's a gambler. -Even better.

-Mind if I keep a tip? -Do what you do.

You prick.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

I guess this means

This is almost our one year anniversary, too.

Yeah.

Look, I am so glad we met each other.

It's really been the silver lining in all of this.

You've really helped me through a hard year.

I just need to move on. But I have the worst luck.

hmm. I wanna see that message.

-Unlock your phone. -Oh.

I don't know how you do it.

You always seem so happy.

Well, you know me.

I just internalize everything.

Probably going to end up snapping one day.

So, how has the app been working for you?

I know you've had a few duds.

Right now I mostly just match with guys

That have already matched with me.

Wait, you're not matching with anyone?

Well, there's your problem.

You have to take initiative.

Find someone that suits you, not the other way around.

Yeah, but you know.

What if they look at my profile and don't think I'm...

Interesting enough or

Attractive or young enough.

If you keep living your life that way,

You'll never find anyone.

Okay, let me see.

Catfish. Oh, his profile pic has his girlfriend in it.

Honestly, it's mostly

Fake profiles and guys that just want to get laid.

I got one.

He likes the outdoors, sailing, traveling.

-He's a gourmet cook. -What?

Kel, he sounds perfect for you.

Come on, sash.

He's a widower.

What if he doesn't match with me?

Send him a message.

Take the lead. Ask him out.

Oh, okay.

Hey. Dan.

That's it?

Okay. Looks like we have a lot in common.

Would love to get to know you more.

Want to meet for dinner this week?

And send.

Send it.

press send.

I don't know if I'm up for this.

We can make it a double date.

What about your brother jack?

That actually sounds like a good idea.

Yeah, that'd be great.

he said yes.

amazing.

I knew this app would be great for you.

Damn, he's calling you already?

Hello?

Jack? What--

Hold on. Where are you?

What? No, no.

Don't give them anything, okay,

Until I get there, I'm on my way.

hey!

let go of him!

What the hell is going on?

Get off of him! What the hell are you doing?

I don't know who you are, lady, but he owes me

A lot of money.

What are you doing in this neighbourhood?

I was hanging out.

Well, yeah. How much did you lose?

-I don't know him anything. -500 bucks or he's not leaving.

Here. Here, take it and get the hell away from us.

Don't--

- Beat it. - hmm?

Two years. You threw away two years of sobriety for what?

To prove how big of a man you are?

-Kellie, I wasn't drinking. -I've heard that before.

Okay, I was looking to hang out.

Then I got swindled, and then that guy threatened me!

Why none of this is your fault?

Well, I wasn't gonna let him talk to me like that.

So what? You threw away how much money?

On what, your overdue rent that you need

Another extension on?

Two weeks! Two weeks!

and I promise, I promise.

You have no idea what night it is tonight, do you?

Of course you don't.

Because if it doesn't involve you,

Then it's not on your radar.

I've got a lot on my plate. I'm, I'm so sorry, kellie.

I've heard that one before, too.

You know what, no, I need you to do something

For me for once. Let's go.

Hi, I have a reservation under gibson.

Wow. This is the nicest place I've been to in a long time.

Dan suggested it.

Apparently, the chef is over from florence.

-Oh. -So we're trusting

The word of a guy you met on a dating app?

Ms. Gibson. Right this way.

-Dan? -Kellie.

-Hi. -Hi.

these are for you.

I don't know your favourite colour,

So I got you one of every kind.

Oh, they're beautiful.

-Thank you. -Here.

Find some water for them.

Can you put these in some water, please?

Thank you.

And that must make you sasha?

Yes. Hi. This place is amazing.

I always wanted to come here.

Oh, this is my brother, jack.

-Pleased to meet you. -Hi.

you must be the one I need to impress.

All sit, please. Here.

-Oh, thank you. -Allow me.

I hope it's okay.

I ordered a bottle of chardonnay for the table.

oh.

- I love chardonnay. - good.

How did you know?

Well, I took a guess.

Is it on the oaky side?

- it is on the oaky side. - Oh, none for me. Thank you.

I'm so sorry. I had no idea.

- No, it's okay. Cool. - excuse me?

Can we get some sparkling water for the table, please?

so, dan, you said you're new to town.
