Out With Dad (2010) s04e11 Episode Script
Day Drinking with Alicia
Her name is Vanessa? - You know, it's actually a very common name.
- No, no! I have only ever met one more Vanessa and that was Vanessa LeMay I have never know anyone else, other than her.
You know, I don't see the humour in it.
- Do you want more wine? - Yes, please.
So anyways, we're going on our date tomorrow afternoon.
Tomorrow? So it means you're not coming to the GSA meeting? Oh God! - You so do not want to go, do you? - No, I'm sorry, I do not.
- God! - Oh, I forgot! I invited Owen to go.
Oh, that's fine.
He already messaged me.
He is coming anyway.
So you actually have a legit excuse this time.
Because you are going on a first date.
OK, tell me where you're taking her? Oh, this is the cool part.
She is taking me to the Ontario Science Center.
Shut up, I haven't been there since I was a kid.
Oh, that is such a cute idea for a first date.
You and Vanessa 2.
0.
Don't call her that.
She is a whole other person.
I'm sorry.
I have to get my jollies out before I meet her.
You don't want me to meet her? I just met her.
I don't know anything about her.
In fact, I may not even like her.
This whole thing is freaking me out.
- You have cold feet.
- I've just never been on a date before.
- Like, I have but just - You've never been on a first date.
Right Uh, it's so embarrassing.
I'm in university and I've never dated.
You're a semi-closeted girl.
- It kind of gets in the way of things.
- True! Claire and I went on a handful of dates but we'd already known each other for a bit.
I guess I've never been on what one would call a first date.
Right.
You had something that developped into something else, whereas this is a more non-traditional "boy meets girl" scenario.
- Or "girl meets girl".
- "Girl meets girl", sorry.
Yeah, the way Owen talks about first dates, they sound like torture.
I mean, they can be.
Oh, it's worse if you're stuck and you're obligated to make small talk.
It's the worst way to get to know someone.
But you are going to the Science Center.
You're never gonna be the lost for things to talk about, it would be great.
Did you do the thing where you make your hair stand on end? Oh, the electricity thing! - I never got picked for that.
- Picked? - As if you volunteered, shy girl! - Oh, correct.
Are you even excited? I am, and I'm not.
I mean, I'm excited to go the Science Center.
But the date part, that's just freaking me out! I mean, so what am I supposed to wear? How do lesbians dress for a first date? Magazines only instruct you on how to dress to impress your man.
Oh well, you're talking to the wrong kind of woman.
Oh yeah hum What time is it in Calgary? - That's not - Sorry, she said she might call.
Oh! I'm not here! - Hey girl! - Hey Alicia, is this an OK time? Now is fine.
I have all the time in the world.
I'm just in here, having a glass of wine.
Alone, evidently.
Ah, I wish I could join you.
I am here studying.
Have you had a chance to talk to your mom yet? Yeah, we're going to see my Dad's side of the family.
So I won't be in T.
O.

Rose says it's fine to put off Friendsgiving until whenever it is convenient for you.
Isn't that right, Rose? Look who it is - Hi Claire.
- Hey Rose.
Rose was just telling me that she thinks it's a great idea for you guys to do coffee.
Oh yeah, we totally should.
