Regardless of whether or not we are being too hard on them - and I agree, we might be, I think they're going to Darwin themselves out of things anyway. It won't be the survival of the fittest that gets them it will be the most suitable person gets mated with...

Hi, I'm Chris.
...
Becky!? That's a pretty name.
...
Thanks. Would you like to go for a drink or cup of coffee after work?
...
That's great. Close to home? Well, no anywhere is good actually, you pick.
....
Cool, see there tonight.

[several hours later]
Hey there, wow you look really nice.
...
No, I didn't have time to go to Bob's, errr, home and change. What would you like to drink?
...
[later]
Sure, let's get out of here. A walk through the park would be great! Let me grab my back pack under the table.
[rustling]
oops sorry, didn't mean to grab your leg, could you kick my keyboard over here, it by your left foot. ... Great thanks.
Ok, let's go.
....
Well, yea, you're right I do carry this everywhere I go. It's got all my stuff in it.
....
No, I mean it has all my stuff. Well, except for my bike, that's outside, I'll have to get it when we leave.

[later]
That was really fun we should do it again. Sorry for the leg thing earlier, and for running your foot over with the bike.
[hugging ... kissing]
mmm, I like you too.
[kissing]
....
Sure, I'd love to spend some time alone with you.
...
Now!? umm, ok hold on, I've got to make a phone call.

[dialing]
Bob? Hey it's me Chris. You know I really appreciate -
....
Oh, she is? The kids too? Well, no you're right, I probably shouldn't be exposed.
...
ok, thanks.

[dialing]
Hey Steve, it me Chris. What are you doing tonight?
...
Oh really, a little party huh? Can me and a friend join?
...
Oh, I see. But, well, I was going to get you new box of cereal.
...
uh huh, ok, ok. I got it.

[dialing]
Marcie, hey it's your big bro Chris. Remember a month or so ago when you said I could -
....
uh huh.
....
right
....
Mom said what?
....
That you shouldn't encourage what!?
...
But she doesn't understand what I'm trying to do, the statement I'm making, the stand against -
...
well, no, not so much. Just for the night.
...
Awesome, you're the best Marcie. I uh, do have a friend .. are you, umm, going out anywhere, maybe, for an hour or so?...
Hello?!
Marcie?!

[turning back around]
Wow Becky, I'm really embarrassed. I didn't think ....
