INT. BAR - NEW YORK CITY - NIGHT

GUY and GIRL sit at a low candlelit table nursing cocktails.  

GUY: I’m gonna tell you everything I know about you. Ready?

GIRL (smiling): Okay…

GUY: Your brother married a girl your family isnt crazy about. She doesn’t want to have kids but you want to be an aunt someday so that kind of gets to you and your mom and dad. You were really religious in college and dated a guy who was in a musical about zombies. You worked for a woman in Los Angeles who made you answer the phone enunciating her first name more than her last. A while ago you showed me a video of a kid on American Idol who sang a Stevie Wonder song. I can’t remember his name but he had spiky hair and you’re crazy about him. When we first met, you complimented me on my video camera and I made some awkward comment about your shoes. (beat) Uh…

He thinks.

She raises her eyebrows.

GUY: Ah, I know there’s more…

Beat. 

GIRL: Wow. 

GUY: What? 

GIRL: It’s such a turn on that you know all of that. 

GUY: Really?

GIRL: Yeah. I didn’t think you listened when I talked to you.
