00:15.600 --> 00:18.040
So… So I certainly had
a wonderful time tonight,

00:18.119 --> 00:19.160
without a question.

00:19.240 --> 00:20.800
-Yeah.
-It was really nice meeting you,

00:20.880 --> 00:24.640
so you want to get together again
some other time?

00:24.720 --> 00:27.320
Yeah, um, I definitely enjoyed my time,

00:27.400 --> 00:31.840
and, yeah,
I have enjoyed it a lot, but, um…

00:33.680 --> 00:36.440
Yeah, if you… if you would like
to get together again, um,

00:36.519 --> 00:39.040
I definitely would like
to get to know you a little bit more.

00:39.120 --> 00:40.000
[James] Oh, excellent.

00:40.080 --> 00:42.760
I definitely would like
to see you again at some point.

00:42.840 --> 00:43.680
Yeah.

00:43.760 --> 00:46.800
Yes. Are you okay, comfortable
shaking hands or…

00:46.879 --> 00:49.599
Oh, yeah, of course,
we can shake hands or, you know, hug.

00:49.680 --> 00:51.040
Whatever. You know, whatever works.

00:51.120 --> 00:53.599
You don't mind, you don't think
that's too much, do you?

00:53.680 --> 00:57.520
-Um, I think that's fine for now, yeah.
-Oh, all right, very good, then.

00:58.040 --> 01:01.040
-It was so nice to meet you.
-Oh, yes. Of course. Good seeing… Good to…

01:01.120 --> 01:03.680
Very nice to meet you also,
without a question.

01:03.760 --> 01:04.599
Okay, so--

01:04.679 --> 01:07.160
You don't mind if I walk
with you to the station, do you?

01:07.240 --> 01:08.480
[Emma] No, I don't mind at all.

01:08.560 --> 01:10.399
-[James] Okay. Thank you very much, then.
-Yeah!

01:10.479 --> 01:11.320
[James] Yes.

01:19.399 --> 01:20.560
[squawks]

01:22.960 --> 01:27.520
[narrator] In South Carolina, Kaelynn
has just been at a speed-dating event.

01:28.119 --> 01:29.119
Oh.

01:31.839 --> 01:33.640
-Thank you.
-[chuckles] You're welcome.

01:34.399 --> 01:36.360
All right, how you think it went?

01:37.080 --> 01:40.199
The first guy, he was okay.

01:40.280 --> 01:43.320
Like, he wasn't like…
It wasn't, like, an immediate no.

01:43.399 --> 01:46.600
It was a solid maybe. I could have been
persuaded one way or another, you know.

01:46.680 --> 01:48.520
-Solid maybe is good.
-Mm-hmm.

01:49.119 --> 01:51.559
The second guy, oh my God.

01:52.759 --> 01:56.160
Absolutely not.
His answers didn't even make sense.

01:56.960 --> 01:57.960
Cute name badge.

01:58.039 --> 02:00.960
You afraid they'll forget? [laughs]

02:01.559 --> 02:04.119
Did they at least remember your name
with the name badge?

02:04.839 --> 02:07.320
Um, no, actually they didn't!

02:07.399 --> 02:10.320
He looks at me,
so presumably looks at, like…

02:10.400 --> 02:11.239
The name tag.

02:11.840 --> 02:14.200
"Nice to meet you, Tori." Walks away.

02:14.280 --> 02:15.400
What?

02:16.000 --> 02:18.480
Third one, um, he was nice.

02:18.560 --> 02:19.400
Nice is good.

02:19.480 --> 02:21.200
How about fourth guy?

02:21.280 --> 02:22.480
Peter.

02:23.080 --> 02:24.200
That… That sounds promising.

02:24.799 --> 02:26.480
-We like Peter.
-We like Peter?

02:26.560 --> 02:28.959
-We like Peter.
-Okay, tell me about Peter.

02:29.560 --> 02:32.160
I don't remember
what he did for work, some kind of, like…

02:32.760 --> 02:34.560
-Generic boy job?
-[Kaelynn] Generic boy job.

02:34.640 --> 02:37.040
Generic, well-educated boy job, though.

02:37.120 --> 02:39.480
Did you tell any of them your diagnosis?

02:40.280 --> 02:41.120
No.

02:42.600 --> 02:44.519
It just wasn't relevant
to the conversation,

02:44.600 --> 02:45.760
and they didn't, like, ask.

02:45.840 --> 02:49.239
At what point, like, if you go out
with him, when do you think…

02:49.320 --> 02:50.480
-Not any time soon.
-[chuckles]

02:50.560 --> 02:52.519
I mean, if he hasn't put it together.

02:52.600 --> 02:54.679
So you don't wanna, like,
disclose that information?

02:55.280 --> 02:58.120
It's just, like, I don't know,
bad things tend to come of it.

02:58.200 --> 02:59.840
They tend to make incorrect assumptions,

02:59.920 --> 03:02.720
and so it's, like, easier
to just show them what is true,

03:02.799 --> 03:04.200
and then explain it later.

03:04.280 --> 03:05.600
That's just how it is.

03:06.120 --> 03:08.480
Did you hear the story
about the firefighter?

03:10.120 --> 03:13.000
So I went on a date
with a firefighter, um,

03:13.080 --> 03:15.920
and I had brought my dog at the time,

03:16.519 --> 03:18.720
and he's like,
"Why did you bring your dog?"

03:19.239 --> 03:23.840
I was like, "He's my service dog,"
and I tried to explain that I train dogs,

03:23.920 --> 03:26.720
so it wouldn't be weird that I'd have
a service dog because I train dogs.

03:27.320 --> 03:29.239
And so he, like,
pushed and pushed and pushed.

03:29.320 --> 03:31.360
"Well, why do you have this dog?
What are you doing?"

03:31.440 --> 03:35.440
And so I mean, there's no way around it,
so I had to just tell him, um,

03:35.519 --> 03:38.880
that I have autism
and this is actually my service dog.

03:38.959 --> 03:41.119
And he stood up and left.

03:42.799 --> 03:46.119
That was it. That was it.
He left, and he blocked my number,

03:46.200 --> 03:47.720
and that was the end of it.

03:48.959 --> 03:51.519
It was a thing that you don't really
move past super quickly.

03:51.600 --> 03:54.679
Like, I don't know
that I, like, was attached to him,

03:55.280 --> 03:58.839
you know, 'cause it was a first date,
but it just kind of reiterates

03:58.920 --> 04:02.679
why we don't disclose
that information immediately, you know?

04:02.760 --> 04:05.040
If somebody reacts that poorly
to your diagnosis,

04:05.119 --> 04:07.040
then that says something bad about them.

04:08.119 --> 04:09.280
Well, yeah.

04:09.359 --> 04:11.600
[phone ringing]

04:17.760 --> 04:18.599
Hello.

04:19.360 --> 04:22.120
Hi, Kaelynn. This is Emily
from Speed Dating in the Park.

04:22.200 --> 04:23.160
Oh, hey.

04:23.760 --> 04:26.400
[Emily] I was calling to let you know
that you had a match tonight.

04:26.479 --> 04:27.360
It was with Peter.

04:28.000 --> 04:29.800
Hey! We matched with Peter!

04:29.880 --> 04:32.120
Yay, Peter! [laughs]

04:32.200 --> 04:33.440
[Emily] Glad you're excited.

04:33.520 --> 04:36.080
I'll go ahead and send you an email
with his contact information.

04:36.160 --> 04:39.080
-You can reach out whenever you want.
-Okay, thank you.

04:39.160 --> 04:40.560
-[Emily] Thanks.
-Bye.

04:42.720 --> 04:43.680
-Hey!
-Hey!

04:43.760 --> 04:45.400
-We got Peter!
-[laughs]

04:49.520 --> 04:52.039
My dream, when it comes to love,

04:52.120 --> 04:56.560
is hopefully want to find the right guy
that would work with me,

04:56.640 --> 04:59.400
getting married and running a company,

04:59.479 --> 05:02.360
continuing to do
animation productions together.

05:03.800 --> 05:05.039
That's what I see.

05:05.120 --> 05:06.479
[magical music playing]

05:12.919 --> 05:15.360
[narrator] After a successful first date,

05:15.440 --> 05:18.160
Solomon is waiting to see Dani again.

05:18.240 --> 05:20.880
I'm feeling so excited,
you know what I mean? Like,

05:21.640 --> 05:25.360
it's just such an amazing, like, adventure
that I'm gonna have with her today.

05:30.960 --> 05:33.680
-Back again.
-Back again, Solomon.

05:34.960 --> 05:37.080
Sorry, I'm just really nervous right now.

05:38.120 --> 05:39.359
Good seeing you.

05:39.440 --> 05:40.320
You too.

05:42.720 --> 05:47.400
Let's just walk around,
because look how beautiful this place is.

05:48.000 --> 05:48.919
I know, right?

05:49.479 --> 05:52.200
[Dani] It's like walking
into the Princess Peach's castle.

05:52.280 --> 05:54.800
Mario and Princess Peach walking together.

05:54.880 --> 05:56.200
Yes, honestly.

05:59.000 --> 06:00.640
Wow, it's a lovely Koi pond.

06:00.720 --> 06:01.840
I know, right?

06:02.640 --> 06:04.000
You're a really unique person.

06:04.080 --> 06:05.960
-Oh, why, thank you.
-Oh, I'm sorry.

06:06.039 --> 06:07.520
It's okay! It's okay! It's okay!

06:07.599 --> 06:11.120
-I'm all flattered! [laughs]
-That was awkward. I'm so sorry.

06:11.200 --> 06:12.640
-I'm so sorry.
-Don't!

06:13.640 --> 06:17.000
We could look at the fish all day,
but there's plenty more to see.

06:17.599 --> 06:19.479
I've heard they have a lovely rose garden,

06:20.080 --> 06:24.640
and every roses have particular names,
like the Lincoln Rose.

06:24.720 --> 06:26.000
There's the Otter Rose.

06:26.080 --> 06:28.039
There's the Tournament of Roses.

06:28.120 --> 06:32.080
You know a lot about roses. That's very,
like, a good passion that you have.

06:32.160 --> 06:33.799
It's the power of research.

06:34.320 --> 06:35.560
-Good.
-You never stop learning.

06:35.640 --> 06:37.720
I love doing research myself too.

06:39.000 --> 06:40.440
[Dani] So you do work, right?

06:40.520 --> 06:42.799
Yeah, I just came back
to my old job two weeks ago.

06:42.880 --> 06:45.560
-Everyone was happy to see me.
-Old job? Like, where at?

06:45.640 --> 06:46.520
Oh, Ralphs.

06:46.599 --> 06:47.760
-Ralphs?
-Yeah.

06:48.520 --> 06:50.520
[screeches]

06:57.240 --> 06:58.520
[narrator] At James's house,

06:58.599 --> 07:01.320
it's the morning
after his dinner date with Emma.

07:01.400 --> 07:03.240
He was so excited last night.

07:03.320 --> 07:05.359
-[James] All right, well.
-Oh my gosh.

07:05.440 --> 07:07.640
All right, yes, well, yes--

07:07.720 --> 07:09.880
You were all smiles!

07:09.960 --> 07:11.760
-Go ahead, you can smile now.
-[sighs] Well--

07:11.840 --> 07:13.720
-See that smile!
-[James] Yes, well--

07:13.799 --> 07:15.400
I can see it!

07:15.479 --> 07:17.200
I'm of the opinion the date went well.

07:17.280 --> 07:21.320
I think Emma is very nice
and lovely and all that.

07:21.400 --> 07:25.440
I do, as a matter of fact,
have a photograph of the two of us.

07:25.520 --> 07:27.320
-[June gasps]
-Yes. Do you want to see?

07:27.400 --> 07:28.320
I wanna see!

07:28.400 --> 07:30.000
Well, yes, what do you think?

07:30.599 --> 07:31.760
[June] Oh, she's cute!

07:31.840 --> 07:33.039
[Lawrence] Yes, she is.

07:33.120 --> 07:34.719
-That's a nice photograph.
-[James] Yes.

07:34.799 --> 07:36.400
-Yes, it's not bad.
-Very nice.

07:36.479 --> 07:39.159
I guess my hair doesn't look too bad
in the photograph.

07:39.239 --> 07:41.960
-It looks great, James.
-Your hair looks wonderful, James.

07:42.039 --> 07:44.520
Look how large my head looks, though.

07:45.039 --> 07:46.960
It's full of brains. You have a big head.

07:47.039 --> 07:48.680
[James] I sure hope so, yes.

07:48.760 --> 07:51.919
When I first met her I asked,
"Are you comfortable shaking hands?"

07:52.000 --> 07:55.280
And she was, thankfully,
but, well, at the end before we left,

07:55.359 --> 07:57.679
I asked if she wanted
to shake hands again.

07:57.760 --> 08:01.440
She said she was comfortable
giving me a hug, so that wasn't too bad.

08:01.520 --> 08:02.640
-Wow.
-[James] Yes. Yes.

08:02.719 --> 08:04.359
-That's… Yeah.
-All right!

08:04.440 --> 08:06.400
-I suppose that's--
-Not too bad, huh?

08:06.479 --> 08:09.120
-[June] Not too… Wow.
-[parents chuckle]

08:09.200 --> 08:11.280
-[June] Are we embarrassing you?
-[sighs]

08:11.359 --> 08:12.320
[June] Neat!

08:12.400 --> 08:14.400
It's not very often
you let anybody hug you.

08:14.479 --> 08:15.560
[James] No, no, no.

08:16.080 --> 08:20.080
It's pretty amazing
how she has a lot in common with me

08:20.159 --> 08:22.640
and shares many
of my interests and hobbies.

08:22.719 --> 08:26.719
If I were a more paranoid type of person,
I'd be a bit suspicious.

08:27.320 --> 08:28.640
What do you mean, suspicious?

08:28.719 --> 08:31.919
You could've set this up.
You could've spoken with her beforehand

08:32.000 --> 08:34.919
and told her every--
all the things to say, possibly.

08:35.000 --> 08:38.079
But no, but I like
to keep a positive attitude, you know?

08:38.159 --> 08:40.880
I do not believe
that you would have done that.

08:40.959 --> 08:42.720
I'm certain that she is genuine.

08:42.799 --> 08:45.320
[June] You'd be totally heartbroken
if they did.

08:45.400 --> 08:47.000
Yes, obviously.

08:47.079 --> 08:48.959
[June]
Then they'd have to deal with your mother.

08:49.040 --> 08:49.920
[sighs]

08:52.000 --> 08:53.040
[Abbey] Bang, bang.

08:53.680 --> 08:55.560
-Bang, bang!
-You have to do it like…

08:55.640 --> 08:56.800
[Abbey] Bang , bang.

08:56.880 --> 08:57.840
Bang, bang.

09:00.360 --> 09:03.880
That's, like, the minimal amount
of trick right there, dog.

09:03.959 --> 09:05.160
You gotta amp it up.

09:05.800 --> 09:07.640
The vet told us that she's overweight.

09:07.720 --> 09:10.160
-She's a fat dog.
-She's not a fat dog.

09:10.240 --> 09:11.600
She's a perfect dog.

09:13.240 --> 09:14.560
[whimpers]

09:15.120 --> 09:16.240
[Cian] What's news?

09:16.320 --> 09:17.240
What's news?

09:17.320 --> 09:19.360
[Cian] Yeah, like what's new
in your world?

09:19.959 --> 09:24.040
In 2023,
I'm going to be a quarter of a century.

09:24.120 --> 09:27.320
-[Christine] How does that make you feel?
-Worried.

09:27.400 --> 09:29.560
It does make you feel worried, doesn't it?

09:30.240 --> 09:31.680
I'm still young, right?

09:31.760 --> 09:33.199
-[Christine] Yes!
-But--

09:33.280 --> 09:37.120
Listen, you're young till you're, like, 50
and then it's downhill from there.

09:37.199 --> 09:41.440
Yeah, I'm… Wait a minute,
I've got lots and lots and lots of years.

09:41.520 --> 09:43.160
Where do you want to eat tonight?

09:43.839 --> 09:45.959
-Wanna go somewhere?
-[phone rings]

09:47.320 --> 09:48.320
Hello?

09:48.400 --> 09:50.199
Hi, Christine, it's David.

09:50.280 --> 09:52.480
Uh, can I speak to Abbey, please?

09:52.560 --> 09:54.800
Um, yeah, hang on, just a minute.

09:56.760 --> 09:57.600
Hello?

09:58.199 --> 10:00.240
-[David] Hi, Abbey.
-Hi, David!

10:02.400 --> 10:03.240
[David] How are you?

10:03.320 --> 10:04.320
I'm good.

10:05.520 --> 10:07.839
Can you hear me?
Do you want to go on another date?

10:08.360 --> 10:09.199
[David] Yes, I would.

10:10.160 --> 10:12.880
Would you like to come
to Lions Tigers & Bears with me

10:12.959 --> 10:14.040
this Friday?

10:14.120 --> 10:16.120
Yes, I would love to go there.

10:16.839 --> 10:17.680
[David] Me too.

10:18.320 --> 10:23.240
I have a lot of stuffed lions
back at my house, and dogs.

10:23.320 --> 10:25.040
[David] I have only one stuffed lion.

10:25.600 --> 10:28.079
Really? I have so many.

10:28.680 --> 10:31.800
But I can't carry
big, giant stuffed animals

10:31.880 --> 10:33.720
'cause it doesn't look mature.

10:34.240 --> 10:36.480
-[David] I know.
-It looks immature.

10:37.760 --> 10:38.600
[sighs]

10:39.280 --> 10:40.120
Well…

10:41.760 --> 10:44.800
We might have dinner plans,
but we're not sure yet,

10:44.880 --> 10:46.520
so I'll talk to you later.

10:46.600 --> 10:48.040
I really got to get going.

10:48.120 --> 10:51.880
-Can't wait to see you this Friday.
-Can't wait to see you this Friday too.

10:53.320 --> 10:55.199
See you then. Bye.

10:55.280 --> 10:57.120
-[David] You too. Bye.
-Bye!

10:58.760 --> 11:02.560
[chuckles]
You're going to that place with David!

11:02.640 --> 11:03.520
I know!

11:03.600 --> 11:05.280
[Christine] That's so awesome!

11:05.360 --> 11:06.920
-[Abbey] Yeah.
-Isn't that amazing?

11:07.000 --> 11:08.120
Yeah.

11:09.040 --> 11:10.640
Oh my God, this is…

11:12.079 --> 11:13.440
[chuckles]

11:13.520 --> 11:15.120
This is great!

11:15.640 --> 11:17.480
[quietly] I'm planning the wedding.

11:18.000 --> 11:20.640
I'm calling a wedding planner right now.

11:20.719 --> 11:24.079
Where's my phone? [laughs]

11:25.520 --> 11:26.640
Whoo!

11:29.400 --> 11:31.400
[magical music playing]

11:36.120 --> 11:37.520
And voilà.

11:38.160 --> 11:39.839
[Dani] This looks so extravagant.

11:39.920 --> 11:43.480
The universe actually brought this to me,
and this is to you.

11:44.000 --> 11:45.000
[Dani] Hmm.

11:47.719 --> 11:48.760
[sighs]

11:48.839 --> 11:49.959
-[sighs]
-[chuckles]

11:50.040 --> 11:51.920
It's really nice up here, honestly.

11:52.000 --> 11:52.959
[Dani] Mm-hmm.

11:53.040 --> 11:55.280
[Solomon] It's my first time,
actually, having champagne.

11:57.400 --> 11:59.640
Do you like opening, like, wine bottles?

11:59.719 --> 12:01.079
Have you opened one before?

12:01.160 --> 12:03.480
I open it in my store
because we have an opener,

12:03.560 --> 12:06.680
but I don't know how to open it,
like, myself, you know what I mean?

12:06.760 --> 12:08.400
-I can help.
-You can?

12:08.480 --> 12:10.320
-So all you have to do--
-Yeah, teach me.

12:10.400 --> 12:13.240
-Teach me your skills.
-Okay, turn that little tab there.

12:13.320 --> 12:14.760
-Like that, right?
-Yeah.

12:15.800 --> 12:16.640
Oh, wow.

12:16.719 --> 12:18.400
That is really how you open a bottle.

12:18.480 --> 12:20.160
Be careful. It's gonna pop.

12:23.600 --> 12:24.839
-Ooh!
-Aw!

12:24.920 --> 12:27.120
-Damn. Whoo!
-[chuckles]

12:27.199 --> 12:29.880
Sorry, I'm, like, kind of sensitive
to noise sometimes.

12:29.959 --> 12:31.199
That's okay.

12:31.719 --> 12:32.600
Sorry.

12:33.199 --> 12:34.880
I'm sensitive to noises too.

12:37.360 --> 12:39.240
[Solomon] Oh damn! Ah!

12:39.320 --> 12:42.640
Have your parents ever taught you
how to pour drinks like this?

12:42.719 --> 12:44.000
[Solomon] Not like champagne, no.

12:45.000 --> 12:46.440
I pour very slowly.

12:49.040 --> 12:51.160
-Oh, you really do it amazing.
-[Dani] Thank you.

12:51.240 --> 12:54.400
Thank you for, like, actually teaching me.
I'll remember that.

12:57.880 --> 12:58.959
[Dani] Mm.

12:59.040 --> 13:02.240
-Mm. So good.
-So good, indeed.

13:02.320 --> 13:03.920
Let me just take a deep breath.

13:04.719 --> 13:07.079
I just want to let you know
you look really amazing today.

13:07.160 --> 13:08.560
Why, thank you so much.

13:08.640 --> 13:09.920
You look amazing too.

13:10.599 --> 13:12.400
My mom picked out the shirt for me.

13:12.480 --> 13:14.520
Oh, wow. That's… Your mother did.

13:14.599 --> 13:17.040
Like, you look
like this beautiful angelic angel.

13:17.120 --> 13:18.280
It's just crazy,

13:18.360 --> 13:22.360
because, like, when I first,
like, saw you in the first date, right,

13:22.440 --> 13:23.440
I was like,

13:23.520 --> 13:27.680
"Did this beautiful angel and soul
came from the universe just for me?"

13:28.280 --> 13:31.120
I do like you so much, but, well,

13:31.199 --> 13:33.199
we should try not to kiss too soon.

13:33.280 --> 13:35.640
It's okay, on our first date,
but that's okay.

13:35.719 --> 13:38.560
-No, no, no--
-Everybody makes mistakes. [chuckles]

13:40.800 --> 13:42.360
No, no, I get it. It's just, you know…

13:42.440 --> 13:44.719
We just have to take it slow,
is the thing.

13:44.800 --> 13:46.199
Of course. Of course.

13:46.280 --> 13:47.120
Yeah.

13:47.959 --> 13:51.079
Do you have, like, um, any plans
to get further degrees?

13:51.160 --> 13:52.959
Yeah. Actually, I am.

13:53.040 --> 13:56.079
So I'm actually applying
to get my BA degree.

13:56.160 --> 13:57.599
So I just got my AA degree.

13:57.680 --> 13:59.160
Oh, that's so amazing.

14:00.640 --> 14:01.760
-[buzzing]
-Oof.

14:01.839 --> 14:04.280
Mosquito. It's getting one on my nose.

14:04.880 --> 14:06.959
-You have a really cute nose, by the way.
-Thank you.

14:07.040 --> 14:09.520
I've never seen
such a beautiful nose like yours.

14:09.599 --> 14:10.959
[laughs]

14:11.040 --> 14:12.680
You look absolutely amazing today.

14:12.760 --> 14:15.719
Like, I just can't stop saying it.
[laughs]

14:15.800 --> 14:17.400
I cannot stop saying it too,

14:17.479 --> 14:20.760
and, um, I really like
the amused look you have in your face.

14:20.839 --> 14:21.760
This looks… You…

14:21.839 --> 14:23.959
Oh my gosh, what?

14:24.040 --> 14:25.439
[both laughing]

14:27.280 --> 14:29.120
What were you saying? Oh my God!

14:29.199 --> 14:30.040
[Dani] You have…

14:31.319 --> 14:32.400
That makes you so cute.

14:33.520 --> 14:36.400
Oh, man. It's just great
spending time with you.

14:36.479 --> 14:39.040
-It's great.
-Just such a beautiful, lovely moment.

14:45.000 --> 14:47.040
I felt so lovestruck right now.

14:47.120 --> 14:50.640
-What does that mean?
-Lovestruck which means I'm still in love.

14:51.640 --> 14:52.920
[chuckles]

14:53.000 --> 14:54.520
I can feel the intimacy.

14:59.680 --> 15:01.760
I really like how you hold my hand.

15:03.199 --> 15:05.280
You're just, like, very tender-loving.

15:06.319 --> 15:08.040
Gee, and you are, babe.

15:08.680 --> 15:10.000
Oh my God!

15:11.479 --> 15:12.959
Let's go for a walk.

15:18.240 --> 15:19.800
[Dani] The date is so fabulous.

15:19.880 --> 15:23.120
Some strawberries and the champagne.
Oh, it's so lovely.

15:23.199 --> 15:25.719
I felt like I just need
to get to know him a little bit more,

15:25.800 --> 15:27.000
but I do like him.

15:27.520 --> 15:28.800
Feeling romance, indeed.

15:28.880 --> 15:31.199
Like… Like, I mean it.

15:32.240 --> 15:34.199
What a lovely sunset.

15:34.280 --> 15:38.319
Yeah, that sunset is dwelling
inside your beautiful soul and presence.

15:38.400 --> 15:40.839
I think you will be really great
at creative writing,

15:40.920 --> 15:43.000
which is something…
with is your great talent.

15:43.079 --> 15:44.439
Yeah. My mom told me that.

15:44.520 --> 15:47.959
Creative story writing
could also work for animation too.

15:48.959 --> 15:50.319
Yeah, for sure. For sure.

15:51.000 --> 15:53.199
-You have something on your face.
-Oh.

15:53.280 --> 15:54.959
It's just your beautiful essence.

15:55.040 --> 15:56.079
Oh, thank you.

16:05.959 --> 16:07.640
[Dani] It's okay to take it slow.

16:13.400 --> 16:14.359
Hi there.

16:15.000 --> 16:15.839
[Cian] Hello.

16:16.680 --> 16:17.880
I'm Steve.

16:18.479 --> 16:23.120
I'm 63 years of age.

16:23.199 --> 16:25.240
[Cian] Well, you look pretty good for 63.

16:25.319 --> 16:27.359
Oh, you're awfully kind.

16:27.439 --> 16:29.920
[Cian] How old were you
when you were diagnosed with autism?

16:30.000 --> 16:31.880
Wasn't all that long ago.

16:31.959 --> 16:35.920
I mean, it's been I think
about two-- a couple of years.

16:36.000 --> 16:38.560
[Cian] How long would you say
you've been single for, Steve?

16:39.079 --> 16:44.079
My gosh, I've been single all my life.

16:48.520 --> 16:50.839
[narrator] Steve lives
on his own in San Francisco.

16:51.760 --> 16:55.439
This is where I have breakfast,
in one chair,

16:55.520 --> 16:57.959
lunch in another one,

16:58.040 --> 17:01.599
and of course, dinner in another one.

17:02.120 --> 17:03.280
-[chuckles]
-[Cian] Oh, really?

17:03.359 --> 17:04.760
I tend to do that.

17:04.839 --> 17:06.399
I know, it's kind of funny.

17:09.000 --> 17:10.480
[Steve] Oh my gosh.

17:11.079 --> 17:14.480
Left and right, pictures of memories.

17:15.200 --> 17:21.399
There I am
with my five-speed Schwinn Sting-Ray.

17:21.480 --> 17:24.119
I used to think I was an Easy Rider.

17:24.919 --> 17:26.280
This is more recent.

17:26.359 --> 17:28.760
I'm on the left, and there's my dad.

17:28.840 --> 17:30.520
-[Cian] Oh, is that you?
-[Steve] Yes!

17:30.600 --> 17:31.919
[Cian] I don't even recognize you.

17:32.000 --> 17:34.320
I think I was
a little bit heavier back then.

17:34.399 --> 17:35.560
[Cian] Yeah.

17:35.640 --> 17:37.159
There's my father and I

17:37.240 --> 17:40.760
when I was a little boy
living in Los Angeles.

17:40.840 --> 17:44.159
The emotion in that picture
is so touching.

17:44.840 --> 17:48.040
Really makes me realize
how I connect with my dad,

17:48.640 --> 17:51.800
and how he accepted me for who I am.

17:53.640 --> 17:55.000
[Cian] Do you ever get lonely?

17:55.080 --> 17:56.800
Oh gosh, do I ever.

17:56.880 --> 18:00.440
I get really lonely
here at home when I'm alone.

18:00.520 --> 18:04.000
To have a lovely lady, oh my goodness,

18:05.480 --> 18:11.320
that would be an absolute dream come true.

18:12.440 --> 18:14.760
[Cian] Have you thought
about trying online dating?

18:14.840 --> 18:16.560
If somebody,

18:17.600 --> 18:19.520
like my personal assistant,

18:20.159 --> 18:21.320
is with me

18:22.600 --> 18:25.399
and showing me and working the computer,

18:26.000 --> 18:28.760
then I'm okay with it.

18:29.399 --> 18:31.080
But I can't do it on my own.

18:34.240 --> 18:35.600
Good morning, Steve.

18:35.679 --> 18:37.000
Oh, hey.

18:37.520 --> 18:38.800
[woman] How you doing?

18:38.880 --> 18:42.520
[narrator] Steve's assistant, Shorae,
has been providing support for him

18:42.600 --> 18:44.399
for the last two years.

18:44.480 --> 18:45.640
So, let's see.

18:45.720 --> 18:47.080
What's on the agenda today?

18:47.159 --> 18:52.800
We talked about
getting an online dating profile for you.

18:52.880 --> 18:54.399
Oh, that's right.

18:54.480 --> 18:57.640
So that's good,
so we're going to need some photos.

18:57.720 --> 18:59.520
-Oh boy.
-[Shorae] You're up for that?

18:59.600 --> 19:01.080
-I guess so.
-Let's go, yeah.

19:01.159 --> 19:02.159
[Steve] Okay.

19:03.840 --> 19:06.520
-[Shorae] Nice background.
-Oh boy, you're not kidding.

19:06.600 --> 19:10.399
Okay, you want to stand here,
right in front of the painted ladies?

19:10.480 --> 19:12.960
-Sure.
-So we can take a picture for the ladies!

19:13.040 --> 19:14.679
-I like it!
-[laughs]

19:14.760 --> 19:17.679
[Shorae] Say, "Whiskey!"

19:17.760 --> 19:21.919
-Whisky a Go Go, baby.
-[laughs]

19:22.880 --> 19:24.679
[Shorae] Hey, yeah! Put your hands up.

19:24.760 --> 19:25.800
-There you go.
-Aw.

19:25.880 --> 19:28.120
[Shorae] Let me see that big smile

19:28.200 --> 19:29.440
-for the ladies.
-Aw.

19:29.520 --> 19:31.000
Do, like, a romantic pose.

19:31.080 --> 19:33.840
I don't even know if I know
how to do one of those.

19:33.919 --> 19:35.159
Come hither!

19:35.240 --> 19:36.280
Oh, there you go.

19:36.360 --> 19:37.919
Now you're talking.

19:38.440 --> 19:41.120
Now how about going to Twin Peaks?

19:41.200 --> 19:43.760
-You like that area?
-Twin Peaks, oh! Do I like it?

19:43.840 --> 19:47.240
-I love it!
-[laughs]

19:49.560 --> 19:51.800
A little wind is one thing.

19:51.880 --> 19:55.240
Yeah, this is a little bit too windy.

19:55.320 --> 19:56.440
[Steve] A little bit.

19:59.000 --> 20:00.240
Hey there!

20:01.280 --> 20:02.560
All right!

20:02.640 --> 20:04.600
-Oh my gosh!
-[Shorae laughs]

20:05.840 --> 20:06.880
Oh, wait a minute.

20:06.960 --> 20:08.280
I'm in love!

20:14.560 --> 20:17.040
Let's see.

20:19.040 --> 20:20.520
-[Shorae laughs]
-[Steve] Oh my gosh.

20:20.600 --> 20:22.679
[Shorae] This is kind of cute, huh?

20:22.760 --> 20:25.200
-[Steve] That one's nice too.
-[Shorae] Mm-hmm.

20:25.800 --> 20:26.880
-Ah!
-Oh!

20:26.960 --> 20:31.320
-This is the real Steve. [chuckles]
-That is, yes.

20:31.399 --> 20:34.440
Even though my eyes are closed,
I'm enjoying it.

20:34.520 --> 20:37.360
That's okay, you're enjoying the air,

20:37.440 --> 20:39.760
and looks like your singing opera.

20:40.960 --> 20:42.440
You already got a message.

20:42.520 --> 20:43.840
Are you serious?

20:47.679 --> 20:49.560
[Cian] What things do you talk about
on a date?

20:50.080 --> 20:51.080
Mathematics.

20:51.600 --> 20:53.240
-[Cian] Are you good at maths?
-Yeah.

20:54.280 --> 20:55.960
What's seven times 13?

20:56.480 --> 20:57.480
Uh, ninety-one.

20:57.560 --> 21:00.440
[Cian] What about 27 times 45?

21:00.520 --> 21:01.960
Uh, twelve-fifteen.

21:02.560 --> 21:06.360
[Cian] Do you know what day of the week
24th of March 2009 was?

21:07.040 --> 21:08.240
It was Tuesday.

21:08.760 --> 21:12.159
[Cian] What about 17th of December 2012?

21:12.240 --> 21:13.240
Monday.

21:13.320 --> 21:14.679
[Cian] That's amazing, Subodh.

21:19.280 --> 21:22.919
[narrator] Autism expert Jennifer Cook
is visiting Subodh

21:23.000 --> 21:26.679
to help him as he prepares
for his very first dating experience.

21:27.200 --> 21:29.080
Everybody on the spectrum is different

21:29.159 --> 21:31.760
and we each need
different kinds of support.

21:31.840 --> 21:35.520
Some of us have intellectual disabilities
and learning challenges.

21:35.600 --> 21:37.240
Some of us have genius IQs.

21:37.320 --> 21:39.399
Some of us are both at the same time.

21:39.480 --> 21:43.679
We are, however,
all looking for the same thing,

21:43.760 --> 21:47.159
respect, understanding,
and a whole lot of love.

21:49.399 --> 21:50.360
-Hi.
-Hi!

21:50.439 --> 21:52.800
Hi, Jennifer. I'm Subodh.

21:52.880 --> 21:54.960
-Hi, Subodh.
-Please come in.

21:55.040 --> 21:57.960
Thank you so much. I would love to.
Thank you very much.

21:58.040 --> 21:59.040
Yes. Thank you.

22:01.000 --> 22:03.120
[Jennifer] Thank you
for welcoming me to your house.

22:03.200 --> 22:07.120
I am here because something exciting
is happening in your life.

22:07.800 --> 22:10.320
-Finding a girlfriend?
-Finding a girlfriend.

22:10.399 --> 22:11.919
-That's pretty big.
-Yes.

22:12.000 --> 22:14.000
Have you ever been
on a date before, Subodh?

22:14.080 --> 22:15.360
-Nope.
-[Jennifer] Okay.

22:15.439 --> 22:17.880
And so what do you think…

22:17.960 --> 22:19.600
What are you smiling about?

22:19.679 --> 22:22.600
What makes you happy
when you think about going on a date?

22:22.679 --> 22:25.000
I feel so great.

22:25.080 --> 22:26.800
Why? What do you see in your head?

22:26.880 --> 22:30.360
-I'm thinking about my future.
-Tell me more about that.

22:30.880 --> 22:34.040
Getting married, going on a honeymoon.

22:34.120 --> 22:39.120
Okay, so you want
to have a special friend.

22:39.200 --> 22:40.040
Yes.

22:40.120 --> 22:43.640
And is that someone
you would want to hug or kiss too?

22:43.720 --> 22:46.399
-Oh yes!
-[Jennifer] Yeah.

22:46.480 --> 22:48.439
We come from a different culture,

22:48.520 --> 22:53.040
and, uh, dating is not something
that I grew up with.

22:53.120 --> 22:55.399
-Mm-hmm.
-I have no idea how to help him.

22:55.480 --> 22:57.760
-So that's been very challenging.
-Sure.

22:57.840 --> 23:00.919
And it's difficult for him
to find somebody on his own.

23:01.000 --> 23:01.840
Yeah.

23:01.919 --> 23:04.600
So the most exciting thing for me

23:04.679 --> 23:07.120
is that he is being helped by you,

23:07.200 --> 23:10.360
and through this process,
he might find love.

23:10.439 --> 23:11.280
-Yeah!
-Yeah.

23:11.360 --> 23:13.640
-[Jennifer] Yeah!
-[laughs]

23:14.240 --> 23:17.360
I was only identified
as being on the spectrum when I was 35.

23:17.439 --> 23:18.320
Oh, wow.

23:18.399 --> 23:21.760
And so I had to stop
and kind of look around,

23:21.840 --> 23:25.760
and say, "You know what?
Life does not come with a guidebook."

23:25.840 --> 23:29.120
There needs to be, because there are
all these secret social rules

23:29.200 --> 23:32.520
that nobody tells us
that other people seem to just intuit.

23:32.600 --> 23:34.840
-[mom] Yes.
-It can get confusing. Do you agree?

23:34.919 --> 23:36.439
-I agree.
-[Jennifer] Yeah. Mm-hmm.

23:36.520 --> 23:38.399
So when we go on dates,

23:38.480 --> 23:41.880
what we're really wanting to do
is find things that we both like,

23:41.960 --> 23:45.399
that we could talk about together,
some common interests.

23:45.480 --> 23:48.159
Oh, I like to study
about the world cities and airports.

23:48.880 --> 23:50.640
-[sister laughs]
-That's fantastic.

23:51.399 --> 23:55.159
So I believe your family
has set something up very specially

23:55.240 --> 23:56.080
in the backyard.

23:56.159 --> 23:57.240
-Yes.
-Wanna try it out?

23:57.320 --> 23:58.919
-Yeah.
-Okay. Let's go do it.

24:00.560 --> 24:02.960
Subodh's at the very beginning
of his dating journey,

24:03.040 --> 24:07.000
and for him,
this is going to be an uphill climb.

24:07.080 --> 24:08.120
That's okay.

24:08.640 --> 24:11.840
So we have set up
a special little practice area

24:11.919 --> 24:14.720
to look at those little moments
of social interaction

24:14.800 --> 24:18.760
that we don't think about
that are so built into just a dinner date.

24:20.200 --> 24:22.280
So, tell you what,
when you come to the table,

24:22.360 --> 24:23.640
this is a nice thing to do.

24:24.240 --> 24:26.040
If you pull the seat out.

24:26.120 --> 24:27.200
-Yes.
-Right?

24:27.280 --> 24:29.480
And you just say… Go like this, all right?

24:30.399 --> 24:32.679
That's right,
and then I'm going to sit down in it.

24:34.120 --> 24:35.159
There we go.

24:35.880 --> 24:41.800
So now is when we are going to try
to find things that we have in common.

24:41.880 --> 24:45.240
Then we can talk,
we have more to say to each other,

24:45.320 --> 24:46.679
and we have more whats?

24:46.760 --> 24:48.640
-Smiles.
-That's right. More smiles.

24:48.720 --> 24:51.840
So do you recognize that flag, Subodh?

24:51.919 --> 24:54.000
Yes. I like the flag of France.

24:54.080 --> 24:55.840
Oh, that's the flag of France?

24:55.919 --> 24:56.760
Yes.

24:57.360 --> 25:00.240
-I wonder why they have a French flag.
-Hello.

25:00.320 --> 25:02.200
-Hello.
-How are you?

25:02.280 --> 25:05.159
Um, I'm going to be your waitress today.

25:05.240 --> 25:08.919
When our server comes to the table,
we're going to look at her.

25:09.000 --> 25:11.240
What do we say
when somebody gives us something?

25:11.320 --> 25:13.600
If I gave you a present,
what would you say?

25:14.120 --> 25:16.240
-Thank you.
-Thank you! Exactly right.

25:16.320 --> 25:19.280
So when she gives us the menus,
what do you think we should say?

25:19.800 --> 25:21.520
-Thank you?
-Yes!

25:21.600 --> 25:23.560
And do you know
why that matters on a date?

25:24.159 --> 25:26.159
We're not on a date
with the server, are we?

25:26.240 --> 25:27.520
-No.
-No.

25:27.600 --> 25:32.120
We want to show that we have nice manners
and that we're a kind person.

25:32.199 --> 25:34.640
Here are some menus for you to order from.

25:35.399 --> 25:36.880
-Thank you.
-Thank you so much.

25:36.960 --> 25:38.240
Thank you.

25:38.320 --> 25:41.560
I like escargots.

25:41.640 --> 25:42.520
You do?

25:42.600 --> 25:44.439
What do they taste like?

25:44.520 --> 25:45.840
Taste like snails.

25:46.919 --> 25:48.159
That's a good answer.

25:48.240 --> 25:49.520
What about you?

25:50.120 --> 25:51.840
I don't know if I like escargots.

25:51.919 --> 25:53.760
I've never had them before.

25:53.840 --> 25:56.080
-Are you guys ready to order?
-Yes.

25:57.159 --> 25:58.199
-I'll take--
-No.

25:58.280 --> 25:59.280
What are you gonna do?

26:00.679 --> 26:02.280
You go ahead. You start.

26:02.360 --> 26:03.919
Thank you so much, Subodh.

26:04.000 --> 26:06.320
May I please have the French onion soup?

26:06.919 --> 26:08.640
I'll take the escargots.

26:08.720 --> 26:10.480
-Thank you.
-Okay.

26:12.800 --> 26:14.240
-Hello. Thank you.
-Hello.

26:14.320 --> 26:16.640
-Hello.
-Here is your French onion soup.

26:16.720 --> 26:18.080
Thank you very much.

26:18.159 --> 26:20.600
-Enjoy.
-It's not actual food?

26:20.679 --> 26:22.120
That's right. We're pretending.

26:22.199 --> 26:24.439
And here is your escargots.

26:24.520 --> 26:25.439
Enjoy.

26:25.520 --> 26:26.960
-Thank you.
-Thank you.

26:27.480 --> 26:29.040
-And we look and say?
-Thank you.

26:29.120 --> 26:30.399
Yep, right over there.

26:30.480 --> 26:31.760
-Welcome?
-No, you say--

26:31.840 --> 26:33.000
-Thank you.
-There you go.

26:33.080 --> 26:35.040
-Welcome. Enjoy.
-All right.

26:36.640 --> 26:37.919
Let's try. Very good.

26:39.760 --> 26:41.280
Now you know what you could say?

26:41.360 --> 26:42.600
How is your soup?

26:43.840 --> 26:45.480
My soup is very delicious.

26:45.560 --> 26:46.840
What about your escargots?

26:48.040 --> 26:50.320
My escargots, it tastes like snail.

26:50.919 --> 26:52.960
-That's how it should taste, I guess.
-Yeah.

26:53.040 --> 26:54.000
Are you all done?

26:54.600 --> 26:55.679
-Yes.
-Okay.

26:55.760 --> 26:59.240
-Are you ready for the ticket?
-Yes, thank you so much.

26:59.320 --> 27:00.800
-Check?
-Yes.

27:00.880 --> 27:03.880
-Do you want to split the bill?
-Absolutely. That would be fine.

27:04.480 --> 27:10.000
Subodh, I think you should not ask
for splitting bill on the first date.

27:10.080 --> 27:12.439
As a man, you should be paying the bill.

27:12.520 --> 27:13.439
-Yeah.
-Yeah?

27:13.520 --> 27:18.439
Let me pay the bill this time,
and maybe next time we can split it.

27:18.520 --> 27:21.159
That sounds good.
Thank you so much for dinner.

27:21.240 --> 27:22.800
-So here you go.
-Yeah.

27:26.640 --> 27:28.000
Don't subtract money.

27:28.600 --> 27:30.600
She's not going
to take any money from you.

27:31.760 --> 27:33.480
Thank you so much. I'll be right back.

27:33.560 --> 27:35.840
-[Jennifer] Thank you so much.
-Thank you. Thank you.

27:36.480 --> 27:38.080
-Now we can get up and go.
-Yes.

27:38.159 --> 27:39.000
Mm-hmm.

27:40.520 --> 27:42.880
For Subodh, it's just gonna be a matter

27:42.960 --> 27:46.240
of doing these challenges that
we're putting before him independently.

27:46.320 --> 27:49.240
So I think one of the things for him
is gonna be practicing these skills,

27:49.320 --> 27:54.120
but achieving them without his family
always being there to support him.

27:54.199 --> 27:55.320
All right, bye-bye!

27:55.399 --> 27:56.720
Thank you! Bye-bye!

27:56.800 --> 27:58.000
Have a safe trip back.

27:58.080 --> 27:59.320
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.

28:04.360 --> 28:06.840
[line ringing]

28:07.439 --> 28:09.679
-[Emma] Hello?
-Yes, hello.

28:09.760 --> 28:11.000
This is James.

28:11.080 --> 28:11.960
Is this Emma?

28:12.480 --> 28:15.040
Hi! Yeah, this is Emma.
How are you doing, James?

28:15.120 --> 28:16.399
I'm doing quite well on this day.

28:16.480 --> 28:18.760
I'm really, really enjoying
this beautiful weather.

28:18.840 --> 28:20.199
How about yourself?

28:20.280 --> 28:23.240
[Emma] Um, yeah,
I'm really enjoying the weather too.

28:23.320 --> 28:26.159
I've been going over to the beach
by my house a lot and stuff, so…

28:26.240 --> 28:28.679
-Very nice.
-Yeah, it's the perfect day for a walk.

28:28.760 --> 28:30.560
-Excellent.
-[Emma] Yeah.

28:31.199 --> 28:33.320
That's pretty cool. Yes.
Oh, speaking of which,

28:33.399 --> 28:39.800
so there is a medieval Renaissance fair
in New York that looks pretty interesting.

28:39.880 --> 28:43.240
I mean, would you
be interested in checking it out?

28:43.320 --> 28:45.560
Would you like to go there and see it?

28:48.399 --> 28:50.600
[Emma] Oh, yeah, that sounds amazing.

28:50.679 --> 28:52.800
Yeah, I've never been
to a Renaissance fair.

28:52.879 --> 28:55.399
-Are you wearing a costume?
-Oh, I'm definitely going to dress up.

28:55.480 --> 28:59.199
I have this really, really awesome
black and red opera cape,

28:59.280 --> 29:02.040
and I have a shirt
that's black with red trim,

29:02.120 --> 29:04.520
and I have these pretty nice
black and red boots also,

29:04.600 --> 29:06.919
and I'm going to carry
a cobra-headed cane,

29:07.000 --> 29:09.240
so, yeah, I'm pretty excited.

29:09.320 --> 29:12.720
[Emma] Oh my gosh, that sounds amazing.
I can't wait to see your outfit.

29:12.800 --> 29:13.959
That sounds so cool.

29:14.040 --> 29:16.959
I'm sure I definitely have an outfit
that I could wear to it.

29:17.040 --> 29:18.040
Great.

29:19.800 --> 29:20.919
Mm.

29:21.000 --> 29:23.199
All right, so I will see you then,
in that case.

29:23.280 --> 29:25.639
I'm really looking forward
to checking out this fair

29:25.720 --> 29:28.360
and seeing you… checking it out with you.

29:29.399 --> 29:31.439
[Emma] Yeah, definitely.
Well, have a good one.

29:31.520 --> 29:33.959
Of course. I hope that
you have a very nice day also.

29:34.040 --> 29:35.199
-[Emma] Thanks.
-Yes.

29:35.800 --> 29:37.240
-[Emma] Bye.
-Goodbye.

29:41.560 --> 29:42.600
[June] How'd it go?

29:42.679 --> 29:45.240
Wait a moment. Wait a moment.
I'll tell you. Hold on.

29:50.639 --> 29:53.360
Yes, so I did just, um, speak with Emma.

29:53.439 --> 29:55.560
She sounded excited
about going to the fair.

29:55.639 --> 29:57.600
-Isn't that great?
-Yeah!

29:57.679 --> 29:59.800
When I told her
about the Medieval clothing I'll wear,

29:59.879 --> 30:03.959
she said it sounded pretty awesome,
so yes, I'm very excited about that.

30:04.040 --> 30:08.120
If she wants to have a beer
or some kind of libation,

30:08.199 --> 30:10.639
don't turn your nose up if she wants…

30:10.720 --> 30:12.800
Say, "Oh God, you're drinking!"

30:12.879 --> 30:15.080
No, I'm not going to.

30:15.159 --> 30:16.840
-[Lawrence] Okay.
-I will not do that.

30:16.919 --> 30:18.480
You're there to enjoy each other.

30:18.560 --> 30:19.560
-Yes, Dad.
-All right.

30:19.639 --> 30:23.120
So she might enjoy your company more
after a couple beers!

30:23.199 --> 30:25.240
-Dad! Stop it, all right?
-[Lawrence chuckles]

30:25.320 --> 30:28.360
-You're annoying me.
-Oh, James, I'm sorry.

30:28.439 --> 30:29.919
Why is everybody annoying you?

30:30.000 --> 30:32.600
I told you, there's
too much micromanagement.

30:32.679 --> 30:34.280
Okay. [chuckles]

30:34.360 --> 30:35.959
[June] When you have your conversation,

30:36.040 --> 30:40.280
I know you might mention to her that
you have a couple of really cool swords.

30:40.360 --> 30:43.439
I have both a longsword and a dagger.
I need to get a short sword.

30:43.520 --> 30:46.840
I need to make sure I bring my longsword
to match so it's the same style.

30:47.439 --> 30:50.800
Yeah, 'cause I might be in a situation
where a longsword just won't…

30:50.879 --> 30:54.560
I'll be too cramped to use a longsword,
but a dagger won't have enough reach.

30:54.639 --> 30:55.919
-You never know.
-[chuckles]

30:56.000 --> 30:57.120
You never know?

30:57.199 --> 31:01.480
Why, you're going bushwhacking somewhere
and you need swords to protect you?

31:01.560 --> 31:02.399
[groans]

31:02.480 --> 31:06.520
Surely you would not need
a fully functional double-edged sword.

31:06.600 --> 31:08.320
[groans] Well, I don't know.

31:08.399 --> 31:09.879
They're cool, okay?

31:09.959 --> 31:10.800
I know, but…

31:10.879 --> 31:13.480
Have I mentioned
that I'd love to have a flamethrower?

31:13.560 --> 31:15.280
-[parents] Yes, you have.
-[James] Oh, okay.

31:15.360 --> 31:17.080
[Cian] What would you use
a flamethrower for?

31:17.159 --> 31:20.520
I don't know. That's a good question.
It's good for melting snow or ice

31:20.600 --> 31:22.480
or, like, burning away shrubbery, or…

31:22.560 --> 31:24.000
Can you see your neighbors?

31:24.080 --> 31:25.919
If I was tied up with wet ropes,

31:26.000 --> 31:28.879
I'd need to burn through wet ropes
or something, you know?

31:28.959 --> 31:31.280
Outdoor fires are regulated.

31:31.360 --> 31:32.439
[groans]

31:37.800 --> 31:41.159
[narrator] It's been two weeks
since Dani's second date with Solomon.

31:42.800 --> 31:45.520
When it comes to, um, dating with boys,

31:46.120 --> 31:49.159
I'm not so sure
if, um, the boy that I'm dating

31:49.240 --> 31:50.399
is the right one.

31:50.480 --> 31:52.120
-You mean Solomon?
-Yes.

31:52.959 --> 31:54.679
I don't know if he's the right one.

31:54.760 --> 31:55.800
I don't know. I just--

31:55.879 --> 31:57.800
You're not supposed to know,
like, the first time.

31:57.879 --> 31:59.520
I mean, she chased me for years.

32:00.600 --> 32:03.959
Animation's my life, and I don't think
he's into animation at all.

32:04.480 --> 32:05.800
What does he like to do?

32:05.879 --> 32:07.840
-What's his--
-Spirituality.

32:07.919 --> 32:09.360
He likes to do spirituality,

32:09.439 --> 32:13.360
and the truth is, I don't think
he's figured out his life yet.

32:13.959 --> 32:14.800
[aunt] I see.

32:14.879 --> 32:19.520
So maybe if he was ten years older,
it would be okay?

32:19.600 --> 32:21.480
If he figured out his life.

32:21.560 --> 32:23.480
I've already figured out my life.

32:23.560 --> 32:25.159
Animation is my life.

32:25.240 --> 32:27.719
I thought Solomon would be the soul mate,

32:27.800 --> 32:30.280
but when the slipper fits, but…

32:31.919 --> 32:34.560
Life is not a Disney princess movie, Dani.

32:34.639 --> 32:35.639
-[aunt] No.
-[uncle] No.

32:36.159 --> 32:37.199
What's your plan?

32:38.600 --> 32:39.600
I just don't know.

32:39.679 --> 32:43.080
-Is a Dear John letter acceptable?
-[aunt laughs]

32:43.159 --> 32:47.080
I'm not sure Dear John letters
are a good idea.

32:47.159 --> 32:48.120
Phone call?

32:48.199 --> 32:51.240
You could give him a phone call,
or you could do a meeting, or…

32:51.320 --> 32:52.600
I'm a little nervous.

32:52.679 --> 32:54.480
I don't want to break Solomon's heart.

32:54.560 --> 32:56.679
Better to do it now than to do it later.

32:56.760 --> 32:57.760
Okay.

32:57.840 --> 33:00.120
Just like a Band-Aid,
take it off really fast.

33:00.199 --> 33:02.520
-Okay.
-But if you do it really slowly,

33:02.600 --> 33:03.520
then it hurts more.

33:04.120 --> 33:06.040
-Oh, I get the analogy.
-Okay, good.

33:06.120 --> 33:09.120
It was my major mistake that I shouldn't
be kissing him on the first date,

33:09.199 --> 33:11.320
but I overcome with emotion.

33:11.399 --> 33:12.240
Okay.

33:12.840 --> 33:16.480
I've always wanted somebody,
and I thought Solomon was the right match,

33:16.560 --> 33:18.719
but I don't think so.

33:18.800 --> 33:23.240
I should… I should go deeper
under what's underneath his iceberg.

33:23.840 --> 33:24.679
[aunt] Always.

33:24.760 --> 33:27.040
You have to be compatible for a long time.

33:27.120 --> 33:28.439
Thanks for the advice.

33:28.520 --> 33:29.439
You're welcome.

33:34.120 --> 33:36.199
[Cian] Are you ready
to start your dating journey?

33:36.280 --> 33:38.360
Yes, I'm gonna start the dating journey.

33:38.959 --> 33:39.800
Very ready!

33:39.879 --> 33:41.080
Yes!

33:41.159 --> 33:43.719
It's gonna be a new chapter! Yes!

33:43.800 --> 33:48.000
Oh, I wanna fall in love
with all the girls!

33:52.000 --> 33:52.919
[Cian] Big day today.

33:53.000 --> 33:55.240
-Are you excited about your date?
-Yes.

33:55.320 --> 33:57.040
Is the girl American?

33:57.120 --> 33:58.360
-[Cian] Yes.
-Oh, yes.

33:58.439 --> 33:59.280
[Cian laughs]

33:59.360 --> 34:00.879
-She's not Indian, I promise.
-Yeah.

34:02.000 --> 34:04.879
[narrator] In Long Beach, California,
Subodh is getting ready

34:04.959 --> 34:06.719
for the first date of his life.

34:06.800 --> 34:08.799
Do you like…
Let's try this jacket on, yeah?

34:08.880 --> 34:09.920
Yeah.

34:12.400 --> 34:13.280
Turn towards me.

34:13.960 --> 34:15.719
That looks very, very nice.

34:15.799 --> 34:16.719
Good option.

34:16.799 --> 34:18.719
What are you looking forward to
on your date?

34:18.799 --> 34:21.719
In my future, I would like to travel
with your girlfriend in the future.

34:21.799 --> 34:23.920
Yes, that's a good option.

34:24.000 --> 34:25.400
And after getting married,

34:25.480 --> 34:28.199
we'll go to the honeymoons
around the globe.

34:28.280 --> 34:30.199
Right! [laughs]

34:47.839 --> 34:49.799
[narrator] Subodh is meeting Rachel.

34:50.799 --> 34:53.000
She likes rubbing a dog's belly

34:53.080 --> 34:54.560
and salsa dancing.

34:54.639 --> 34:56.440
She doesn't like skunks

34:56.520 --> 34:58.720
or people losing their temper.

34:59.440 --> 35:00.680
Hi, I'm Rachel.

35:00.760 --> 35:02.120
-[Subodh] Hey, Rachel.
-Hi.

35:02.200 --> 35:04.160
-Hi, I'm Subodh.
-Hi.

35:04.240 --> 35:06.080
-Please take your seat.
-Thank you.

35:06.839 --> 35:08.120
-[Rachel] Hmm.
-So…

35:08.880 --> 35:10.200
So do you have a favorite movie?

35:10.280 --> 35:12.440
I used to watch
a lot of Mission Impossible.

35:12.520 --> 35:15.000
Okay. I have a lot of favorite movies.

35:15.080 --> 35:17.600
Like, my favorite comedy
is the movie White Chicks.

35:17.680 --> 35:19.360
-Yes.
-With the Wayans Brothers.

35:19.440 --> 35:20.440
2004.

35:20.520 --> 35:22.040
Yeah, you like that movie?

35:22.120 --> 35:25.240
-I used to watch that movie in 2004.
-Yeah. Yeah.

35:25.319 --> 35:27.120
Oh, here are your flowers.

35:27.200 --> 35:28.080
Oh, thank you!

35:28.600 --> 35:30.839
Thank you. They're my favorite color too.

35:30.920 --> 35:34.240
I haven't started dating a girl
in 33 years.

35:34.319 --> 35:35.160
Wow.

35:35.240 --> 35:36.160
Me too.

35:36.240 --> 35:39.040
You know?
I haven't dated in such a long time.

35:39.120 --> 35:40.880
Yeah. Uh, Rachel?

35:40.960 --> 35:43.760
-Yeah?
-What do you like to do for sports?

35:43.839 --> 35:45.480
-Basketball.
-Yeah.

35:45.560 --> 35:48.000
I also like, uh, soccer.

35:48.080 --> 35:50.240
I like to go swimming and snorkeling.

35:50.319 --> 35:51.200
Oh, cool.

35:51.280 --> 35:53.600
But I want to start
snorkeling and traveling.

35:54.360 --> 35:58.040
-Where do you want to travel to?
-I am going with around-the-world ticket.

35:58.120 --> 35:59.319
Oh, that's cool.

35:59.400 --> 36:00.240
Yeah.

36:01.960 --> 36:04.160
Well, I love to… Do you like to cook?

36:04.240 --> 36:05.680
I like to cook food.

36:05.760 --> 36:07.720
Well, I love to cook a lot.

36:07.799 --> 36:09.120
I like to make some soup.

36:09.200 --> 36:10.880
Oh, you like soup? I like soup too.

36:10.960 --> 36:13.440
Welcome to the Crab Pot.
Here are our menus right here.

36:13.520 --> 36:14.360
[Rachel] Thank you.

36:15.120 --> 36:17.080
[Subodh] Do you like to eat poke bowls?

36:17.160 --> 36:18.520
-Poke bowls?
-[Subodh] Yeah.

36:18.600 --> 36:20.120
I do, sometimes.

36:20.760 --> 36:22.440
-I like poke bowls.
-[Rachel] Yeah.

36:25.440 --> 36:27.280
Do you like to draw or anything?

36:27.360 --> 36:29.440
I like to draw a picture of a cake.

36:29.520 --> 36:30.839
-That's cool.
-Yeah.

36:30.920 --> 36:32.520
-I love cake.
-Yeah.

36:33.120 --> 36:34.360
You like to decorate cakes?

36:34.440 --> 36:36.400
Draw a picture of it,
but I don't decorate.

36:36.480 --> 36:38.280
Picture of the cake? Okay, that's cool.

36:38.360 --> 36:40.000
-[Subodh] Yeah.
-That's cool.

36:41.640 --> 36:43.880
So what's your favorite type of music,
by the way?

36:43.960 --> 36:45.920
I like to listen to video-game music.

36:46.520 --> 36:49.480
-Rachel, do you like video-game music?
-I don't listen to that stuff.

36:49.560 --> 36:52.440
My favorite kind of music is pop rock,
and I also like Broadway.

36:52.520 --> 36:53.400
Broadway.

36:54.920 --> 36:57.240
My favorite musical is Hairspray.

36:57.920 --> 36:58.760
Hills?

36:58.839 --> 36:59.760
Hairspray.

37:00.400 --> 37:01.680
-[Subodh] Oh, Hairspray!
-Yes.

37:01.760 --> 37:04.359
-All right.
-I like The Greatest Showman.

37:04.440 --> 37:05.640
I don't like it.

37:05.720 --> 37:06.880
[Rachel] Oh, that's okay.

37:06.960 --> 37:08.760
-You know, we can be different.
-Yeah.

37:09.280 --> 37:10.520
These are so pretty.

37:13.160 --> 37:14.720
Can't wait to take this back.

37:14.799 --> 37:18.120
Oh, wow.
I haven't done this one in 33 years.

37:18.200 --> 37:19.480
I know. [chuckles]

37:19.560 --> 37:20.480
Same as me.

37:21.080 --> 37:21.960
[chuckles]

37:22.640 --> 37:24.240
Do you watch any TV or anything?

37:24.319 --> 37:25.680
I do not like TV.

37:26.280 --> 37:27.880
Do you watch YouTube?

37:27.960 --> 37:29.400
Sometimes. Not all the time.

37:29.480 --> 37:31.280
I like it all the time.

37:31.359 --> 37:32.200
Wow.

37:35.640 --> 37:36.839
Yeah, I… Yeah.

37:37.520 --> 37:40.040
Well, I watch TV sometimes.

37:40.600 --> 37:42.040
What's your favorite things to…

37:42.120 --> 37:44.720
I know you don't watch TV,
but my favorite TV shows

37:44.799 --> 37:46.520
is Dancing With The Stars
and American Idol.

37:46.600 --> 37:48.880
Let's change the topic.
Can we change the topic?

37:48.960 --> 37:49.960
Sure, go ahead.

37:53.640 --> 37:54.560
Go ahead.

38:04.520 --> 38:07.640
[Dani] So I just wanted
to talk to Solomon.

38:07.720 --> 38:10.640
We've enjoyed our dating times
and everything,

38:10.720 --> 38:14.480
but unfortunately, we're not compatible.

38:15.080 --> 38:18.200
I just want to ask him,
"Can we still be friends?"

38:18.280 --> 38:20.359
"Can we still be friends,
if it's possible?"

38:20.440 --> 38:22.400
I hope I don't hurt his feelings.

38:23.839 --> 38:25.319
You can do this, Dani.

38:27.720 --> 38:29.000
[line ringing]

38:31.720 --> 38:33.160
-Hey, Soly.
-[Solomon] Hey Dani!

38:33.240 --> 38:34.640
It's been a long time.

38:34.720 --> 38:36.640
It's been a long time with you.

38:36.720 --> 38:39.839
Things has been very, very busy lately.

38:40.920 --> 38:42.200
[Solomon] No, I feel you on that.

38:42.280 --> 38:45.280
Me too, honestly.
Like, I've been working a lot lately,

38:45.359 --> 38:46.480
so, you know…

38:46.560 --> 38:48.160
[chuckles] Okay.

38:48.799 --> 38:52.280
But there is one thing
I just want to talk to you about.

38:53.319 --> 38:55.600
-[Solomon] Yeah, what's up? Talk to me.
-I…

38:55.680 --> 38:56.600
[clears throat]

38:57.440 --> 38:59.359
I'm just a little nervous,

38:59.440 --> 39:01.720
but unfortunately…

39:02.960 --> 39:04.520
[sighs] …dating-wise,

39:05.120 --> 39:07.280
I don't think we're…

39:07.799 --> 39:11.720
What I'm trying to say,
I don't think we're compatible.

39:16.160 --> 39:17.839
[suspenseful music playing]
n't think we're compatible.
