00:00:00I am Melissa, the matchmaker, and you are listening to Ditch the Algorithm.
00:00:22Society shames folks if we haven't found love.
00:00:25Tells them to resort to some soulless dating apps,
00:00:27sending them out on dates with God knows who,
00:00:30just because that's what the algorithm says.
00:00:33But we are not about that here.
00:00:35This year on Valentine's Day, I want you to forget about swiping left or right.
00:00:39Look for what's real.
00:00:41Good vibes, personal connections, people who genuinely care.
00:00:46They're out there. I promise.
00:00:49Keep loving your hearts out there, everyone.
00:00:51Until next time.
00:00:58Oh my God.
00:01:00We're a nine-month strong, and we're going on our first vacation together next week.
00:01:07We owe it all to Hotspot for bringing us together.
00:01:11That's cute.
00:01:12How about this?
00:01:13The secret is never giving up.
00:01:15I went on dozens of dates thinking I'd never find the one.
00:01:18But guess who's getting married in the fall?
00:01:19Thanks, Hotspot.
00:01:20Hey, look, guys.
00:01:26Guys, this is great, right?
00:01:30That people are finding love, and we're getting bombarded with positive testimonials.
00:01:33That's why we do this, right?
00:01:34Wrong.
00:01:37Wrong.
00:01:37Actually, what this is telling me is that we need to change the algorithm.
00:01:42Yep.
00:01:44Just leave it there.
00:01:46Think about it.
00:01:47We are a subscription app.
00:01:49People count on us to be able to weed out all the weirdos so that we give them a chance
00:01:53to have a good match so that they can go on dates.
00:01:56But people are making connections.
00:01:58Why would we change the algorithm?
00:02:00Think about it.
00:02:01Think about it.
00:02:01If I'm paying a monthly service and then two months in I no longer need the service, what
00:02:06am I going to do?
00:02:08Stop paying.
00:02:10I suppose we need to change the algorithm.
00:02:12We need to get them on more dates.
00:02:15Get them out there.
00:02:16What if we did more promo events in the hottest clubs?
00:02:20Pop-ups in places where people are more about dating than settling down?
00:02:23Beverly Hills, Vegas, Manhattan.
00:02:26The crowd that wants to be single and mingle.
00:02:27Yes, yes, yes.
00:02:29You hear that?
00:02:30Ah, it's good.
00:02:33I'm going to start calling you Reggie Ruth from now on.
00:02:36All right, perfect.
00:02:37Everyone, yes.
00:02:38This is what I'm talking about.
00:02:39Teamwork makes the dream work.
00:02:41Reggie Ruth, you take the lead on this.
00:02:43Give me a list of the 10 top spots tomorrow morning.
00:02:46Good.
00:02:47Let's do it.
00:02:48All right, meeting adjourned.
00:02:59Ah.
00:03:00Food.
00:03:11Um, hey.
00:03:13Yeah, sorry.
00:03:14I thought I said just leave it here.
00:03:15Oh, yeah, man.
00:03:16I was going to, but then this lady came by to grab a box of stuff.
00:03:19Right.
00:03:19Yeah, that's, um, Sherry.
00:03:21She's my ex.
00:03:22I know, man.
00:03:23She told me everything.
00:03:25You got some issues, man.
00:03:26Seriously?
00:03:27She was just really upset, you know?
00:03:29She said that everything was your career and you always put work first.
00:03:32Uh, like, yeah, I mean, I guess I'll work a lot.
00:03:35Yeah, she said that.
00:03:36But she also said you really don't know what you want from your life.
00:03:38And that you're emotionally unavailable and you really couldn't get in touch with your emotions.
00:03:47I'm happy she was able to get all that off her chest.
00:03:50Sounds like a great therapy session.
00:03:52Thanks for the food.
00:03:53Yeah, no worries, buddy.
00:03:54But just, you know, you forgot her birthday.
00:03:57I knew she'd bring this up.
00:03:58I didn't forget her birthday.
00:03:59I actually did a very nice candlelit dinner.
00:04:01I just didn't give her a card on her birthday.
00:04:03And she really likes her card.
00:04:03Trust me, it was beautiful.
00:04:08You know, if she were my girlfriend, I don't think I'd ever forget.
00:04:11Okay, well, she's single now, so good luck.
00:04:18Thanks, man.
00:04:19So I have your blessing?
00:04:20I mean, I consider myself a man of honor, and you know, on any circumstance, I don't think I would ever, you know...
00:04:33Two Laphroaigs, doubles.
00:04:48On the rocks?
00:04:49You don't serve single malt scotch on the rocks.
00:04:52Of course.
00:04:53No one knows anything.
00:04:56Jude, I had a vision.
00:04:57We have the number one dating app in the world.
00:05:00Millions of subscribers.
00:05:02Captive audience.
00:05:03One thing we don't have is a place to bring them all together en masse.
00:05:06This resort development, it's the crown jewel in my empire.
00:05:10It has to succeed.
00:05:11It will.
00:05:12Is the team still scouting islands?
00:05:14That secluded island stuff has played out.
00:05:16We want somewhere accessible.
00:05:17Somewhere we can create a year-round branded destination.
00:05:21Resorts, restaurants, above all romance.
00:05:25And we found the perfect place for our development.
00:05:27Sure, that's great.
00:05:28But there's a hiccup.
00:05:29Some local reprobate has started rallying the town against our evil empire.
00:05:35Now we're in danger of losing the vote to allow the development.
00:05:37Well, can we just find another town?
00:05:39No, this is the place.
00:05:40It's cute.
00:05:41It's quaint.
00:05:42It's everything we need.
00:05:44The resistance is coming from this woman who runs a dating service called Melissa the Matchmaker.
00:05:49Falling in love is the end goal of dating, but it's not all there is to it.
00:06:02The dating world is hard, and it's ever-changing.
00:06:06But I promise you'll be happy you came to see me.
00:06:09I don't know.
00:06:10You know, 24 years of marriage, down the drain.
00:06:14Well, did it go down the drain overnight?
00:06:18I suppose not, but I loved Robin.
00:06:22I really, I really did, and, uh...
00:06:24Look, it makes sense that you're hurting.
00:06:27But if you only focus on your, your ex-wife, you'll never be able to move forward and find love.
00:06:33That's who you want, right?
00:06:36Yeah.
00:06:37Yeah.
00:06:38This will not be speed dating or, um, some app that's going to throw a thousand names at you.
00:06:45Well, you know, everybody says you're the best.
00:06:47And right now I am seeing it firsthand, so I, I see it.
00:06:54And I also see that, uh, you have, uh, that fairy tale relationship, huh?
00:07:00Uh, yes.
00:07:01That's why Declan and I started this business.
00:07:04So, we can show everyone they can have a fairy tale.
00:07:09I'm going to take great care of you, Jonah.
00:07:11We're going to find your special someone.
00:07:12In the meantime, I'm going to, uh, send you an email with some worksheets.
00:07:18And I need you to be completely honest when you fill them out.
00:07:21If you don't like dogs, say so.
00:07:23Or else we're starting out on the wrong foot.
00:07:25Well, I love dogs, but I, I understand.
00:07:28I get you.
00:07:29And I hope you don't mind.
00:07:31With all that talk about that company coming in, we do need all the help we can get.
00:07:37You know what our customer satisfaction rating is?
00:07:4157%.
00:07:41Hers is 91%.
00:07:43Really?
00:07:47How is that even possible?
00:07:48It isn't.
00:07:49It can't be.
00:07:50I'm convinced she's less of a relationship guru and more of a tech genius.
00:07:54She may appear homespun and traditional.
00:07:56She even has a podcast called Ditch the Algorithm.
00:07:58But that's just to throw people off the scent.
00:08:00She's got to have an algorithm.
00:08:02And it's putting ours to shame.
00:08:04So she's a fraud.
00:08:06We have to expose this Charlton for who she is.
00:08:08Once we discredit her, the undecideds will waver and we'll win.
00:08:13And that's where you come in.
00:08:16Me?
00:08:16It's your town, kid.
00:08:18That section of Dunedin, where everyone's a hopeless romantic.
00:08:22Arrowheart.
00:08:24Arrowheart.
00:08:24What is it they say?
00:08:26Valentine's Day every day?
00:08:28It's more of a state of mind.
00:08:30Yeah, I know.
00:08:31That's why it's perfect for us.
00:08:33I want you to go down there, dig up the dirt on Melissa the Matchmaker so we can take her down.
00:08:39Sir.
00:08:41Alistair.
00:08:44So if Arrowheart continues to refuse to build the resort, I mean, they don't know what they're missing.
00:08:50They need some kind of an injection of capital just to save the town.
00:08:54My mom's still there.
00:08:55I hear all about it.
00:08:56That said, I really think you should maybe send Carol or a private investigator.
00:09:01If I go down there, I'm going to stick out like a sore thumb.
00:09:04This isn't a request, Jude.
00:09:07Look, you know your stuff.
00:09:08You've made this company a lot of money.
00:09:09But if you want to get to the next level, you've got to be ruthless.
00:09:12You can't do this.
00:09:13You might not be the right guy I need in this company.
00:09:15This is an opportunity.
00:09:17Go home and reconnect with your friends.
00:09:19The development will come up naturally.
00:09:21You're a big city boy now, so make the case to your friends.
00:09:23Wow.
00:09:24A development like that will save this town.
00:09:27You know how to talk to these people.
00:09:29Yeah.
00:09:29Anyway, the vote is on Valentine's Day at the festival,
00:09:32so you have until then to find out the matchmaker's secret.
00:09:34Or win me the vote.
00:09:36I don't care which.
00:09:37Valentine's Day.
00:09:38That's less than a week away.
00:09:39That's why you're leaving tomorrow.
00:09:40Can you do what I need you to do here?
00:09:43Can you play at this level?
00:09:44Oh, yeah.
00:09:45Yeah.
00:09:46Yeah, I can.
00:09:47Good.
00:09:49Your flight leaves first thing in the morning.
00:09:50Don't be late.
00:09:51Can I get you anything else?
00:09:52The check.
00:09:59Ice.
00:09:59And single mall.

00:10:54Vote no. Save Arrowheart. Thank you.
00:11:10Hey, Tavi.
00:11:11Hey.
00:11:12Any objection if I tape some of these up?
00:11:13None whatsoever. I'm with you all the way.
00:11:15Oh, you have to try my new recipe. You're killing me.
00:11:17You'll fall in love.
00:11:21I'm in love. I'll tell Declan to watch out.
00:11:23Ha. You guys still good for dinner tonight at my place?
00:11:26Yeah, we'll be there at five. Anything I can bring other than dessert?
00:11:29Hold up. Hey, Peter, I was wondering if...
00:11:32I'm sorry, Lisa. We need this resort.
00:11:34That's the only way to save Arrowheart.
00:11:40Don't feel bad, Lise. Times have been tough for Peter.
00:11:44Times have been tough for everyone.
00:11:45Letting a soulless company come in and build a resort isn't the answer.
00:11:48He thinks that once the resort opens, their property values will go up
00:11:52and he can finally start making some money.
00:11:54What about the people who don't want to sell?
00:11:56Higher values will just push up the cost of living and they'll be ruined.
00:11:58You're preaching to the choir here.
00:12:00I'm voting against the development.
00:12:02But a lot of folks I talk to are starting to think it's their best bet for the future.
00:12:07You might lose.
00:12:08Not if I have anything to do with it.
00:12:13Richie, how can you even think about supporting this monstrosity?
00:12:19I'm undecided. They're a big resort. They'll come in, they'll spend plenty of money.
00:12:23Exactly.
00:12:24When a big company like that comes in, they become the biggest player around.
00:12:28They can do whatever they want from there.
00:12:29Buy up local businesses, buy up more land.
00:12:31Pretty soon they'll own the whole town.
00:12:33Honey, we'd be putting our future entirely in their hands.
00:12:36We'll lose our entire identity.
00:12:39Look, we all know how silly Valentine's Day every day sounds, right?
00:12:46But it's real. It's authentic.
00:12:48Here, it's in our hearts and we know that.
00:12:50We let them build that resort, we've become a huge joke.
00:12:54I hear you, Lisa. I do.
00:12:56But I'm the mayor.
00:12:58And I hear from people every day who are suffering.
00:13:00You know, they're worried about going out of business.
00:13:03You know Jake's is closing?
00:13:04No, I didn't know that.
00:13:0845 years. They're an institution.
00:13:11Jake was telling me he only wishes he could hold on long enough for them to build the resort.
00:13:14That way he gets some new patrons.
00:13:17But he can't.
00:13:18You know, we have to consider folks like that.
00:13:20I mean, we are Richie.
00:13:22It's just, if Arrowheart becomes the home of this new resort, that's just the beginning.
00:13:26I mean, within five years, we'll all be priced out of our homes and businesses.
00:13:30Imagine a place like Jake's or Tabby's, trying to compete against whatever restaurants and diners this company will open.
00:13:40Like I said, I'm undecided.
00:13:42Richie, your voice carries a lot of weight.
00:13:45If you say you're going one way or the other, you can swing the vote.
00:13:48We're going to keep working on you, Rich.
00:13:51Now, come on. Let's clean these plates up.
00:13:53I wish we could be more like you guys.
00:14:06What do you mean?
00:14:07You're so in sync.
00:14:10Except on setting your wedding date and choosing whose house to sell, right?
00:14:14Uh-huh. Both of us take a lot of planning, and we are in sync on that, yes.
00:14:19Richie and I never seem to agree on anything.
00:14:21Anything.
00:14:24He's just been, I don't know, distant for a while.
00:14:31Maybe you should do matchmaking to teach couples how to rediscover what they liked about each other in the first place.
00:14:38It seems like a while sometimes.
00:14:42No, no, no, no. Don't think like that.
00:14:43You guys are great. It's just a tough time.
00:14:46I do love that business idea, though.
00:14:50It could be a perfect little expansion.
00:14:52Great. We'll talk royalties tomorrow.
00:14:55Great. Let's do it.
00:14:58Thank you so much.
00:14:59Thanks for coming, guys.
00:15:00Thank you so much.
00:15:01It was wonderful.
00:15:01That was nice.
00:15:20Yeah. Yeah, it was. They're great.
00:15:22Yeah.
00:15:22You do remember our timeline, right?
00:15:28Of course. Valentine's Day. It's like everything.
00:15:33Like, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to do the right thing here. You know, I don't want to screw this up for you. I know you have to win those votes.
00:15:39I know. Thank you.
00:15:40But, uh, Anna and I are getting pretty serious.
00:15:46I'm just worried about the business. What will people think?
00:15:51Lisa, the key to this business has always been you, not some idealized version of you and me as this perfect couple.
00:15:58I mean, let's face it. I've been stealing half the credit for a while now.
00:16:03Hey, you've got this.
00:16:08After Valentine's Day?
00:16:10After Valentine's Day.
00:16:12After Valentine's Day.
00:16:14After Valentine's Day.
00:16:15After Valentine's Day.

00:16:36After Valentine's Day.
00:16:37After Valentine's Day.
00:16:38After Valentine's Day.
00:16:39Oh, let's go. Hey, I just landed.
00:16:58Good. Did you get yourself a hotel?
00:17:00No, I'm going to stay with my mom.
00:17:01Perfect. It'll seem just like a trip home.
00:17:03No, I looked at her website. I didn't see any photos of her at all.
00:17:06The whole thing's up front.
00:17:07No, well, she has enough clients. They're meeting with someone.
00:17:09Hi there. Welcome to Dunedin.
00:17:11I'm Courtney. I am from a part of town we lovingly call Earhart.
00:17:15It's a very special place where it's Valentine's Day every day.
00:17:19Welcome and happy Valentine's.
00:17:21Okay. Yeah, thank you so much. I'm really okay.
00:17:25Don't be silly. Everyone who visits gets the full Earhart welcome. Isn't that right?
00:17:30Sure is, Mom.
00:17:31Oh, I don't need the shirt. Thank you.
00:17:33Actually, so I'm not visiting. I'm from here originally.
00:17:36Oh, my goodness. Jude?
00:17:39Yeah. How did you?
00:17:41Fabulous. I'm a friend of your mom. She mentioned to me you were coming in.
00:17:44Well, that's great. That's fantastic that you know my mom. Wonderful.
00:17:48Well, thank you. I actually have to get going. I have to call a car.
00:17:51Don't be silly. My car is right there.
00:17:54Okay. Hold the port for me, Lizzie. We're going to Beth's.
00:18:01There he is!
00:18:20Oh, hi, Mom.
00:18:24Thanks, Courtney. In with you.
00:18:27Okay, thanks.
00:18:31Now, before I get into the why don't you call more often, why don't you like my photos online?
00:18:35It is really great to see you.
00:18:38Thanks, Mom. Yes.
00:18:39It's great to see you, too.
00:18:42Now, can I finally take these things off?
00:18:44You know it.
00:18:51Now, why don't you call more often?
00:18:53Why don't you like my photos online?
00:18:57Come on.
00:18:57I've got lemonade waiting for you.
00:18:59Oh, my God.
00:19:25Make yourself comfortable.
00:19:27Feet.
00:19:37See, everything is still the same?
00:19:39Not everything.
00:19:44Local artist?
00:19:45Quite local.
00:19:46I know I'm no Picasso, but I'm getting better each day, I think.
00:19:50Wait, Mom. You? Really?
00:19:52That's great.
00:19:53Oh, I have a big frame.
00:19:55I'm going to need your help hanging later.
00:19:56Of course. No problem.
00:19:59I'm just really happy that you have time to paint.
00:20:03I know that I was a handful. I didn't give you any time off.
00:20:06I loved having you around here.
00:20:08I wish you'd visit more.
00:20:10How long are you staying?
00:20:13Your text didn't say.
00:20:15I don't really know.
00:20:16I just needed a change of scenery.
00:20:19And I'm going to be working while I'm here, doing field research, so don't get all crazy making plans.
00:20:23Do you want a sandwich or something?
00:20:24Do you want a sandwich or something?
00:20:24No, I'm fine. No sandwiches.
00:20:26What about some cheese? I've got a really great brie or, oh, an English cheddar. You have to try them.
00:20:31Yeah, I like cheese.
00:20:32Yes, please.
00:20:33So, what kind of research do you have to do? In English?
00:20:43Uh, we need to calibrate the algorithm to account for the delta between some of our results and our competitors.
00:20:56You have competitors in Ereheart. Are you developing bread making software?
00:21:05Very funny, Mom.
00:21:05Well, you haven't been here in years. We're not going to catch up.
00:21:09I bring you out to LA every year.
00:21:12Yes, and now you're home to do field research.
00:21:18Spill the beans, Jude.
00:21:23Okay, but you can't tell anyone. I'm serious.
00:21:26No one.
00:21:29Okay, so I work for a dating app.
00:21:31And the owners of the dating app, they heard about a local matchmaker here in Ereheart.
00:21:35Seems to be doing really well for our clients.
00:21:37So they asked me to come out here and see what I can learn.
00:21:39You must mean Melissa the matchmaker.
00:21:42Yeah. Yeah, that's her.
00:21:44From what I've heard, she's terrific.
00:21:47Right. Well, all the reviews say that she is, too. I don't trust her.
00:21:51Have you ever thought about dating again?
00:21:57Oh. What about you? Are you seeing anyone?
00:22:01Yeah, I am. I was. We just broke up, actually.
00:22:05Honey, I'm sorry.
00:22:06It's okay. These things happen.
00:22:09Maybe the matchmaker will find someone for you.
00:22:12Sure. Right here in Ereheart.
00:22:15Why not?
00:22:15Do you really like it in LA?
00:22:19Yeah. Yeah, it's great.
00:22:21Maybe the matchmaker will change your mind. So what's your plan, you know, for the research?
00:22:27You're way too excited about this. I have no idea. I was just going to look up some of her clients.
00:22:32Maybe I know them from back in the day. I just have to be really subtle.
00:22:35I've got it. Go see her. You know, have a consultation.
00:22:51Melissa the matchmaker.
00:22:58Doesn't it always start when two people meet each other for the first time?
00:23:02Yeah, that's usually how it starts, Melissa.
00:23:05See us in person. Let's do this.
00:23:12Schedule a consultation.
00:23:15So let's see what you can do for a Mr. Trent Robinson.
00:23:35Hello?
00:23:53Happiness only lasts in a photograph.
00:23:55Hi, all the way in the air.
00:24:01Yeah, uh, it's okay.
00:24:12Jude?
00:24:12Lisa?
00:24:13Uh, this is crazy.
00:24:18What are you doing here?
00:24:21Uh, this is my business. What are you doing here?
00:24:24Melissa the matchmaker.
00:24:26What?
00:24:27This is Melissa the matchmaker.
00:24:30Yes.
00:24:31You're Melissa the matchmaker.
00:24:32Yes.
00:24:40Wow, okay.
00:24:41Um...
00:24:42What are you doing here?
00:24:43Yeah, I'm your 10 AM.
00:24:45Trent Robinson.
00:24:47You gave me a fake name.
00:24:51I didn't want to tell anybody that I was here.
00:24:52Just trying to, you know, fly under the radar.
00:24:54You should have done some better recon due to anyone in town.
00:24:57Could have told you I'm Melissa the matchmaker.
00:24:59Seemed like a better idea in my head.
00:25:01I think you forgot my full name.
00:25:02No, definitely not.
00:25:04I wouldn't have forgotten something.
00:25:06I'm just trying to date anonymously.
00:25:08And you don't, uh, apparently put any photos of yourself on your website, so...
00:25:11Okay, well, it's about my couple. It's not about me.
00:25:15Wow.
00:25:17I'm gonna back up.
00:25:18Wait, so, uh, my mom, she knows that you're Melissa the matchmaker?
00:25:21Of course she does.
00:25:22Of course she does.
00:25:24Wow.
00:25:27Well, um, you're here.
00:25:30Want to come in?
00:25:31Sure. You look great.
00:25:32Uh, yeah, yeah, that'd be great.
00:25:33Yes.
00:25:34Okay.
00:25:35Follow me.
00:25:36Oh, my God.
00:25:41Uh, you can have a seat.
00:25:49Nice office.
00:25:50Thanks.
00:25:53It's good to be home.
00:25:57So.
00:25:59So?
00:26:00Been a while?
00:26:01Yeah, you know, I'm sorry I haven't reached out to you sooner.
00:26:06I'm sorry I didn't call, uh, when your dad passed.
00:26:11Hey, do you remember the last thing you said to me when I left?
00:26:15Yes.
00:26:17Get lost.
00:26:19I was kind of hoping you wouldn't remember that.
00:26:21Uh, it's okay, we were young.
00:26:24So young.
00:26:26Yeah.
00:26:28Did you find what you wanted moving to California?
00:26:31Oh, yeah.
00:26:33Yeah, absolutely.
00:26:34Yeah, I do strategy now for this really big tech company.
00:26:37They're amazing.
00:26:39Uh, really challenging, rewarding, lucrative, great view.
00:26:43Jude.
00:26:45It's me.
00:26:47Yeah, it is.
00:26:50You don't need to give me the canned corporate nonsense.
00:26:53You happy?
00:26:57Looks like you are.
00:26:58Yeah, his name is Declan.
00:27:01He's great.
00:27:03Declan.
00:27:04And Melissa.
00:27:06It's great.
00:27:06It's great.
00:27:07It rolls off the tongue.
00:27:08Are you guys married?
00:27:09Engaged.
00:27:11Going great.
00:27:13We actually built this together.
00:27:15It's been amazing.
00:27:16That's, uh, that's great.
00:27:17I'm really happy for you.
00:27:19I mean, it's not all sunshine and roses.
00:27:23That's just part of being in a relationship, right?
00:27:25I tell all my clients that you have to put in the work.
00:27:28Yeah.
00:27:35Okay, uh, so, you come back home.
00:27:40You don't tell anybody.
00:27:41And you book a matchmaking appointment under an assumed name.
00:27:47What's going on?
00:27:48My mother made me do it.
00:27:53Uh, yeah.
00:27:54Wow.
00:27:55Which actually sounds really embarrassing to say out loud, uh, because I'm a grown man.
00:27:59Your mother's adorable.
00:28:00She's something else.
00:28:02Yeah.
00:28:02Um, L.A., I can't set you up with someone, Jude, if you're just gonna go back.
00:28:08It's not really fair to anyone.
00:28:10Uh, no, no, no, wait.
00:28:12I was actually just talking with her this morning, thinking about maybe coming back.
00:28:16And honestly, between you and I, I think it was a mistake leaving you.
00:28:20You know, leaving Arrowheart a long time ago and trading my dreams for a tech company,
00:28:28and now dating in L.A. is very up and down, so I don't...
00:28:31You're using one of those dating apps, aren't you?
00:28:33Uh, yeah, a few times.
00:28:34Let me guess.
00:28:36You get great matches, all seems good on the surface, you have some fun, have some laughs.
00:28:42It doesn't last, right?
00:28:44Yeah.
00:28:46Yeah, actually.
00:28:47Yeah, that's it.
00:28:47And then when you do meet them and you feel like it's the one, then all of a sudden it's...
00:28:52Do you know where that is, Jude?
00:28:53Uh, no, why?
00:28:55Because love isn't an algorithm.
00:28:59Why would we expect an app to be able to handle something as intimate and personal
00:29:03as finding the partner you're going to spend the rest of your life with?
00:29:06Actually, Miss Matchmaker, I'm going to disagree with you.
00:29:08I think love is an algorithm because with the proper data and information,
00:29:12and if people are being honest...
00:29:15Jude, very few people are completely honest when they first start dating.
00:29:20Think about it.
00:29:20When you go out on a date, they don't really send you.
00:29:24You are full of flaws, insecurities, secrets.
00:29:30I am?
00:29:31The royal you.
00:29:32When you go out on a date, you send a representative.
00:29:36Someone to speak on your behalf, say all the good things, the highlights.
00:29:41That's why it only stays good for so long.
00:29:43Yeah, I guess I just haven't really thought about it like that.
00:29:48Okay, Mr. Trent Robinson, why don't you have a seat?
00:29:51Let's talk about what you're looking for in a relationship.
00:29:53Okay, I'm going to do a little worksheet with you.
00:30:02Okay.
00:30:03Okay, which of the following describes you best?
00:30:06I'm looking for companionship.
00:30:09I'm looking for fun.
00:30:11I'm looking for adventure.
00:30:14I'm looking for something non-committal.
00:30:19And Sam, I'm looking for something deeper, but flexible.
00:30:27Just because I'm usually busy at work.
00:30:28How important to you is love?
00:30:39Love is all you need, right?
00:30:42No, June, love is not all you need.
00:30:47Let me show you something.
00:30:48Every single one of these couples are still together.
00:30:50But love isn't the only ingredient in their relationships.
00:30:53You need trust, togetherness, understanding.
00:30:57Yeah, love sometimes really isn't enough.
00:30:59And you tell them all this?
00:31:01Yeah, every single one of them.
00:31:03Otherwise, what good am I to them?
00:31:04I'm just another dating app sending them out into the world totally blind.
00:31:12I know exactly who to set you up with.
00:31:14Please hold.
00:31:15Already?
00:31:16Yes.
00:31:18I do know a little bit about you already, June.
00:31:20Including a certain birthmark.
00:31:25You're not sharing that information, are you?
00:31:27Okay, her name's Nora.
00:31:30She's looking for something real,
00:31:31but she needs someone who understands how crazy busy she is.
00:31:35Sound familiar?
00:31:36Yeah, just sounds like you're setting me on a date with myself.
00:31:39Oh no, she's way cuter.
00:31:42Coffee? Two sugars?
00:31:45Yeah.
00:31:47Yeah.
00:31:48You remembered.
00:31:50Yeah.
00:31:53So anything else I need to know about Nora?
00:31:55Oh, she hates cats.
00:31:57Perfect, I'm allergic anyway.
00:32:00Yeah.
00:32:00That's right, match made in heaven.
00:32:03So how do I pay you?
00:32:04Do I pay you up front, after?
00:32:06What do I do?
00:32:07Dude, don't be silly.
00:32:08It's all in the house.
00:32:08No, really, I'd love to.
00:32:11Please, I got you.
00:32:13Okay, okay, let's...
00:32:15Just how does it work?
00:32:16Like if I were to pay you, if I were a paying customer, like Nora, how is she going to pay you?
00:32:20Well, uh, consultation's free, always free.
00:32:23I set you up on three matches.
00:32:25If none of those matches progress to a second date, free.
00:32:29How are you making any money?
00:32:30What are you, what are you doing?
00:32:32You're inquisitive, aren't you?
00:32:34I am so fascinated about how all of this works, and you have quite a little business going, what?
00:32:40Thank you very much.
00:32:40Uh, well, you get to a second date, if it kicks in.
00:32:45What if two people keep dating, and they just don't tell you that they're dating?
00:32:50I guess they have to live with their dishonesty.
00:32:52I don't know, it never happens.
00:32:577pm, Cupid's Bistro.
00:33:00Oh, like, uh, 7pm tonight?
00:33:02Yeah.
00:33:03Wow, you don't waste any time.
00:33:04Nope.
00:33:05I guess it's a date.
00:33:07It's a date.
00:33:10Thanks for the heads up about Lisa, Mom.
00:33:15I'm sorry, I thought it would be a fun surprise for you.
00:33:18Fun surprise?
00:33:19It was like an ambush.
00:33:20Lisa broke my heart.
00:33:23Jude, there is always plenty of blame to go around in breakups.
00:33:26Oh, hey there!
00:33:28Look, it's my Richie!
00:33:29Hey Beth, how's everything your way?
00:33:30Awesome!
00:33:32Are you kidding me?
00:33:34Jude, you look amazing, man!
00:33:36How on earth are ya?
00:33:37Oh, Richie, yeah, a little squeezed.
00:33:39Ah, sorry about that.
00:33:42Gosh, it's great to see you, it's been ages.
00:33:44Yeah, yeah, it's been a really long time.
00:33:47And I'm sorry, did I hear my mom call you mayor?
00:33:51Look, you even got the pin and everything.
00:33:53Yeah, second term, youngest mayor in Arrowheart history.
00:33:57I love this town and it seems to trust me with looking after it.
00:34:00It is so good to see the two of you together again.
00:34:03You were thick as thieves when you were kids.
00:34:05Well, listen, I got to run to a meeting, but do you want to grab a late lunch?
00:34:07Um, sure, yeah.
00:34:10No, actually, sorry, I can't.
00:34:12Mom and I have plans.
00:34:13Nothing serious, you two should catch up.
00:34:16Well, listen, text me, your mom's got my number, and it was great seeing you both.
00:34:20Good to see you.
00:34:21See you later.
00:34:25It looks good.
00:34:29Mom, what was that?
00:34:32Don't you want to catch up with Richie?
00:34:33What would we even talk about?
00:34:35He's nice.
00:34:36Yeah, I like him.
00:34:37We go way back, but he's exactly what I was avoiding becoming by leaving this place.
00:34:41Oh, you were going to be mayor, huh?
00:34:43You know what I mean, Mom.
00:34:45He's just a small town.
00:34:46Uh-huh.
00:34:49Jude, I know you think you're Mr. Metropolitan because you live in Los Angeles,
00:34:52but take it from me, none of that matters.
00:34:56Good friends are hard to find, son.
00:34:58Richie has always been a great friend to you.
00:35:00You should go spend some time with him.
00:35:02What have you got to lose?
00:35:11Look at you, man.
00:35:13What's L.A. like?
00:35:14Life in the fast lane, huh?
00:35:15Huh.
00:35:16Uh, yeah.
00:35:18Yeah, I guess.
00:35:19What about you?
00:35:21Mr. Mayor?
00:35:24I always knew you would amount to big things.
00:35:26Big as Mayor of Earhart is anyway.
00:35:28Right.
00:35:29And you have that big Valentine's Festival coming up, right?
00:35:32Do you have any super-duper big mayor duties that you have to attend to?
00:35:37Mostly just welcoming everyone, saying a few words.
00:35:40It's nice, you know, people coming in from all around to visit.
00:35:42The town has been a bit tense.
00:35:46There's this developer, Allaby Industries, wants to buy up a whole heap of land on the other side of Lee Camp Drive, turn it into a big resort.
00:35:53Love-themed, naturally.
00:35:55You know, try to tap into the town's reputation.
00:35:58Lots of pros, lots of cons, but everybody wants to hear from me.
00:36:03And if I give a strong endorsement, I could really swing this thing.
00:36:06Really?
00:36:09I mean, between you and I, that kind of sounds like a great opportunity for some tourism.
00:36:14I thought so too, but there's a worry we might lose our identity.
00:36:18Valentine's Day every day?
00:36:20Yeah, the resort would definitely tap into that, but it might not even be real anymore.
00:36:25So what are you doing back in town?
00:36:27Visiting my mom.
00:36:29Yeah, visiting my mom.
00:36:31What about you and Tabby?
00:36:32You guys okay?
00:36:33Really well.
00:36:34Yeah?
00:36:34Yeah, pretty well.
00:36:37Can I level with you, Jude?
00:36:38Yeah, yeah.
00:36:39I'm jealous of you, man.
00:36:41What?
00:36:42Why me?
00:36:42You got out.
00:36:44The rest of us, we barely changed.
00:36:46I look at you and I see a different man.
00:36:48Someone who took the bull by the horns.
00:36:50That's something that you wish you did?
00:36:52I had dreams, Jude.
00:36:54You know, I wanted to travel, study abroad.
00:36:57I know it sounds cliche, but I wanted to find myself.
00:37:01I don't know if this is me.
00:37:03Mayor of Arrowheart.
00:37:05Sometimes I feel like I'm suffocating.
00:37:08So what's stopping you?
00:37:10Tabby.
00:37:11I brought it up.
00:37:11She doesn't want to move.
00:37:12You know, you don't have to move.
00:37:15You could just go travel somewhere.
00:37:19I ran into Lisa today.
00:37:20Don't get any ideas.
00:37:22What?
00:37:22No, absolutely not.
00:37:23Of course not.
00:37:24Besides, her and Declan look like they're doing really well.
00:37:29They're happy.
00:37:30Yeah, they're the perfect little couple.
00:37:31We've all had someone in our lives who's left some scars, scars that take time to heal or don't heal at all.
00:37:42It can be difficult to see our future if we can't move on from our past.
00:37:47But what if your past comes back into your life?
00:37:52When that happens, you have to ask yourself a question.
00:37:54What do you feel more?
00:37:56The memories of the good times?
00:37:58Or the scars from the bad?
00:38:08No.
00:38:08What?
00:38:09No.
00:38:09I'm a man.
00:38:10No.
00:38:10No.
00:38:10No.
00:38:10No.
00:38:12No.
00:38:12No.
00:38:13No.
00:38:14Jude?
00:38:24Hi, you must be Nora?
00:38:26I must be.
00:38:35Come here often?
00:38:39I'm sorry.
00:38:40I'm a bit nervous, but I don't know why.
00:38:44This obviously isn't my first time.
00:38:46No, I wouldn't imagine so.
00:38:48You know, just because you're age.
00:38:52You're not old, like mid-30s?
00:38:54Late 20s?
00:38:57Hi, folks.
00:38:59Welcome to Keep It's Bistro, the place for good food and a more.
00:39:05I'm Ethan, and I'll be taking care of you.
00:39:08Can I start you off with some drinks?
00:39:11I would love a Sauvignon Blanc.
00:39:14G&T, thanks.
00:39:16Coming right up.
00:39:21Yeah.
00:39:22Okay, I'm sorry.
00:39:23Can we start over?
00:39:23Because I actually feel like I didn't make a good first impression.
00:39:27I'll let it slide.
00:39:29G&T, huh?
00:39:31Yeah.
00:39:31I normally drink scotch, but I hate it.
00:39:34My boss drinks it.
00:39:35I'm just trying to fit in sometimes.
00:39:37I never really got into G&T's.
00:39:40Really?
00:39:42You are missing out.
00:39:43Oh, am I?
00:39:44Yeah, and you know what's even better?
00:39:46Gin martini.
00:39:47The way that they're supposed to be made.
00:39:48Shake and not stir.
00:39:49You want it watered down.
00:39:53As you know, shaking it breaks the ice.
00:39:57More friction, so it starts melting.
00:39:59It's science.
00:40:01So, matchmaking service, right?
00:40:04That's wild.
00:40:05Yeah, I know.
00:40:06It sounds so cliche, but I'm kind of a busy gal, so I don't really have time to meet suitors
00:40:11at a soiree.
00:40:12Yeah, me neither.
00:40:14I have tried a few of those dating apps, though.
00:40:17You ever been on those, or?
00:40:18Yeah.
00:40:19Yeah, a little.
00:40:20What did you think?
00:40:21Pretty pathetic.
00:40:23Really?
00:40:24I really don't know where they find these people.
00:40:26That is why I love Melissa, because she really took the time to get to know me.
00:40:30Okay, do you want to do a dating lightning round?
00:40:34Yes.
00:40:35Hit me.
00:40:36Okay, let's see.
00:40:37Favorite movie?
00:40:39Shawshank Redemption.
00:40:40Oh.
00:40:40Come on.
00:40:41Yeah?
00:40:41Okay.
00:40:42Four weddings and a funeral.
00:40:45Here you are.
00:40:46Need a couple more minutes with the menu.
00:40:48Oh, we actually haven't even looked yet.
00:40:51Take your time.
00:40:53Well, cheers.
00:40:55Oh, yeah, cheers.
00:41:01Sorry, do you mind?
00:41:03It might be my sister.
00:41:04She's going through the divorce.
00:41:05Is that code for help?
00:41:09Would you look at that?
00:41:12I can see why she's got such a solid reputation.
00:41:15She's great.
00:41:18Yeah, she is.
00:41:20She is.
00:41:20Thanks, Jude.
00:41:26That was nice.
00:41:27Yeah.
00:41:29I move around a lot for work, though, and I'm not sure when I'll be back, so maybe we'll
00:41:34catch up in the future.
00:41:38Yep.
00:41:39Of course.
00:41:40Of course.
00:41:41Lovely meeting you.
00:41:43You're great.
00:41:45Have a good one.
00:41:48Yeah, you too.
00:41:50Really?
00:42:10Uh, lower on the left.
00:42:12Mom?
00:42:13Wait, I just want it to be level.
00:42:16Okay, shift it to the right.
00:42:18A quarter of an inch.
00:42:20Been doing this for like ten minutes now.
00:42:23I feel like you're just constantly pulling my leg.
00:42:25I gotta be over here to see if it lines up, and it's really hard to do.
00:42:29Yeah, you think?
00:42:32It's perfect, honey.
00:42:33It's perfect.
00:42:38It's fine.
00:42:39It's fine.
00:42:44Sorry.
00:42:47But why are you so nosy?
00:42:48Mind your business.
00:42:49Who is it?
00:42:49I'll be right back.
00:42:50Who is it?
00:42:51I will be right back.
00:42:52Is it Melissa the mouthfeaker?
00:42:53I...
00:42:53Hey.
00:42:59Mr. Whitlock.
00:43:01Did I strike out?
00:43:01That's not quite the term I like to use.
00:43:05I thought it went so well, though.
00:43:07No, I thought you were very nice.
00:43:11But?
00:43:12But she felt you were a little guarded.
00:43:16She didn't feel that spark she was looking for.
00:43:18Sorry.
00:43:21Right.
00:43:21Look, I may have done a less than awesome part of my job here.
00:43:27I just assumed I know you because...
00:43:30You know, our history.
00:43:34And...
00:43:34Maybe I need to evaluate you further.
00:43:38Evaluate me?
00:43:38Sounds pretty scientific.
00:43:40There's no science to love, Jude.
00:43:42How many times do I have to tell you that?
00:43:44Right.
00:43:44Sorry, I forgot.
00:43:45Love has no algorithm.
00:43:48Let me do the work.
00:43:49It's what I do.
00:43:50How about dinner tonight?
00:43:53Yeah.
00:43:54Okay.
00:43:55Sounds nice.
00:43:57I'll text you the details.
00:43:58See you tonight, Romeo.
00:44:00Bye.
00:44:03Sounds like someone has plans.
00:44:07Mom, if you're going to eavesdrop, I could just as easily stay at a hotel.
00:44:10Well, if you would just stay and talk in front of me, I wouldn't have to eavesdrop.
00:44:13I take it that was the matchmaker.
00:44:16You ready to seize the moment?
00:44:18She invited me out to dinner just to evaluate what I'm looking for in my love life.
00:44:23What are you looking for in your love life?
00:44:27I don't know.
00:44:29The one...
00:44:30Isn't that what everybody wants?
00:44:32But actually, Mom, this doesn't matter.
00:44:34This isn't why I came here.
00:44:36Jude, I know why you came back.
00:44:39You do?
00:44:39I know how important Lisa was to you.
00:44:43Lisa?
00:44:44Mom?
00:44:45Lisa's engaged.
00:44:47And that wouldn't matter anyway.
00:44:49She's great.
00:44:49But it was a long time ago.
00:44:51That was puppy love.
00:44:52High school stuff.
00:44:54If you say so.
00:44:55Jude, are you happy?
00:45:18Yeah, of course.
00:45:19I've got money and a great place in L.A.
00:45:22That's not what I asked.
00:45:23Are you happy?
00:45:26I don't know.
00:45:32Mm-hmm.
00:45:33I see we're on Friendly Turf.
00:46:00You ready?
00:46:02Ready.
00:46:03For what?
00:46:04In 30 seconds, this meeting will turn into a practice date.
00:46:08What?
00:46:10A practice date?
00:46:12I need to see you in your element.
00:46:15Oh, you're being serious.
00:46:19Is that absolutely necessary?
00:46:20Yes, it is absolutely necessary, yes.
00:46:23If I'm going to set you up with someone,
00:46:24I need to know who you are now, and not the version I have
00:46:27of you in my head from high school.
00:46:31You really want to do this?
00:46:32Like, where did you grow up?
00:46:36What do your parents do?
00:46:38How many siblings do you have?
00:46:39Mm-hmm.
00:46:40So you better bring your A-game.
00:46:42You ready?
00:46:43No.
00:46:44Three, two...
00:46:45Lisa, I don't think this is...
00:46:46...one.
00:46:47Okay.
00:46:49Yes, I have been here a few times.
00:46:51The smoked salmon is to die for.
00:46:57Right.
00:46:58Um, you're from out of town, I heard.
00:47:00Oh.
00:47:03Oh.
00:47:05Oh.
00:47:06Yes.
00:47:07I live in Los Angeles.
00:47:09Hmm.
00:47:10It's a town of rock stars and movie stars, but I'm originally from Arrowheart, Dunedin.
00:47:14Really?
00:47:15That's awesome.
00:47:16Tell me about it.
00:47:24You made the butter chicken?
00:47:26No, that's not how it happened.
00:47:27To have you made the butter chicken, I just made the desserts.
00:47:30All I know is that we were all in a lot of gastrointestinal-related distress for like two whole days.
00:47:36Do you think that's bad?
00:47:37That was the night that Tabby and Richie got together, remember?
00:47:39Are you being serious?
00:47:40How did I not know that?
00:47:41They were literally making it out in the laundry room until they both threw up.
00:47:46That's priceless.
00:47:48You think for their anniversary they'd get together and make butter chicken?
00:47:50No, not even once.
00:47:57Yeah, they're not doing so well.
00:47:58Yeah, no, I know.
00:47:59I had lunch with Richie.
00:48:01He mentioned it.
00:48:02I think maybe the spark's just gonna...
00:48:04Oh, no, not those two.
00:48:05They're meant for each other.
00:48:07They're just...
00:48:09...mispiring.
00:48:10I don't know how to explain it.
00:48:13This resort, it's-it's tearing the town apart.
00:48:16The resort?
00:48:17It's just a resort.
00:48:18It can't be that bad.
00:48:19Dude, come on.
00:48:20You know this place.
00:48:21The second that resort comes in, it just begins the corporization of Arrowheart until there's nothing left but overpriced retail stores and tacky souvenirs.
00:48:30I think we've-I think we've fallen out of character a little bit.
00:48:36Right.
00:48:37Right.
00:48:38Of course.
00:48:39First date.
00:48:40First date.
00:48:41I guess around this point I would ask if you're sticking around for Valentine's Day.
00:48:47I thought every day was Valentine's Day here.
00:48:50At least it was when I was a kid growing up.
00:48:52I don't know.
00:48:53It still is.
00:48:54Especially at the festival on the day.
00:48:58And if, um, you have someone special to share with.
00:49:02Would you like to go to the Valentine's Day festival with me?
00:49:11Sorry.
00:49:12Hey.
00:49:13You serious?
00:49:14No.
00:49:15This is important.
00:49:16Okay.
00:49:17Okay.
00:49:18Bye.
00:49:19Everything okay?
00:49:20Declan and I were supposed to set up the Melissa the Matchmaker display at the festival tomorrow morning and Declan just told me that he can't be there because he-
00:49:26Do you need a hand?
00:49:27I got two.
00:49:28No, it's-it's okay.
00:49:29I will-I will manage.
00:49:30I'd be really happy to help.
00:49:31Okay.
00:49:32Bye.
00:49:33Bye.
00:49:34Bye.
00:49:35Bye.
00:49:36Bye.
00:49:37Bye.
00:49:38Bye.
00:49:39Bye.
00:49:40Bye.
00:49:41Bye.
00:49:42Bye.
00:49:43Bye.
00:49:44Bye.
00:49:45Bye.
00:49:46Bye.
00:49:47Bye.
00:49:48Bye.
00:49:49Bye.
00:49:50Bye.
00:49:51Bye.
00:49:52Bye.
00:49:53Bye.
00:49:54Bye.
00:49:55Bye.
00:49:56Bye.
00:49:57Bye.
00:49:58Bye.
00:49:59Bye.
00:50:00Bye.
00:50:01Bye.
00:50:02Bye.
00:50:03Bye.
00:50:04Bye.
00:50:05Bye.
00:50:06Bye.
00:50:07Bye.
00:50:08Bye.
00:50:09Bye.
00:50:10Bye.
00:50:11Bye.
00:50:12Bye.
00:50:13Bye.
00:50:14Bye.
00:50:15Bye.
00:50:16Bye.
00:50:17Bye.
00:50:18Bye.
00:50:19Bye.
00:50:20Bye.
00:50:21Bye.
00:50:22Bye.
00:50:23Bye.
00:50:24Bye.
00:50:25Bye.
00:50:26Bye.
00:50:27Bye.
00:50:28Bye.
00:50:29Bye.
00:50:30Bye.
00:50:31Bye.
00:50:32Yes, please.
00:50:36Lisa.
00:50:37Peter, everything okay?
00:50:39No, everything is not okay.
00:50:40Did you email my wife your safe Erhard propaganda?
00:50:44First, it is not propaganda.
00:50:46Second, a lot of people got that email.
00:50:49She's on a list.
00:50:50We are for the resort, Lisa.
00:50:52I've told you that.
00:50:53Maybe you should talk to Andrea if she's signed up.
00:51:02Wow.
00:51:05Do we need to worry about Andrea?
00:51:06No.
00:51:07Peter have some puffs.
00:51:08He'll cool off.
00:51:17That's pretty.
00:51:17What's that?
00:51:19Tabby gave me a new business idea to expand the service
00:51:22to help couples in a rut.
00:51:23I have my MFT,
00:51:25and I got into matchmaking instead of counseling,
00:51:27so why not both?
00:51:28No, but that says first month free.
00:51:31Yeah.
00:51:32Lisa, that means no money.
00:51:35But that, sorry, that's crazy.
00:51:37I think it's a great idea.
00:51:38What are you talking about?
00:51:39You're going to burn yourself out with everything you're doing
00:51:41and then lose money while you're doing it.
00:51:42Dude, it's an opportunity.
00:51:44Couples fight about money.
00:51:45So if I give them a free month,
00:51:47they get to get comfortable
00:51:48and see what they need to fix in their relationship,
00:51:50and then they can decide to pay me and move forward.
00:51:52No, but you have tons of expenses you need to think about.
00:51:55You have your office rental taxes,
00:51:57the expansion,
00:51:57the employees that you're going to have to hire,
00:51:59and then on top of everything that's personal,
00:52:00including your mortgage, bills, food.
00:52:02Easy, easy.
00:52:04I know what I'm doing.
00:52:06I'm building a long-term customer base.
00:52:08Money will come.
00:52:12I've got this far, haven't I?
00:52:14Yeah.
00:52:14I've got to fix that speaker.
00:52:17Meanwhile, can I interest you in a sugar cookie?
00:52:20Hi, Tabby.
00:52:21Jude!
00:52:22So cute!
00:52:25I haven't had a chance to talk to you since...
00:52:28Butter chicken.
00:52:32I didn't make it.
00:52:34It's okay.
00:52:35I forgive you.
00:52:37I think.
00:52:39So, L.A. not your style anymore?
00:52:41No, no, no, no.
00:52:42I'm just visiting.
00:52:43That's it.
00:52:43Catching up with friends and family.
00:52:45And by the way, your place.
00:52:46You should do a lot more first date promotions.
00:52:49That was great.
00:52:50Maybe take a class on online marketing or SEO.
00:52:52That's a really good idea.
00:52:54Maybe drum up some more business?
00:52:57Afford a speaker system that works?
00:53:00It was great to see you.
00:53:01Yep, that's a great couple.
00:53:13Sound familiar?
00:53:14It should be.
00:53:15We danced to it at prom.
00:53:17It was our song.
00:53:19Yeah, it was.
00:53:23Shall we?
00:53:24What?
00:53:26What?
00:53:28Dance.
00:53:29I left my dancing shoes at home.
00:53:31And my closet.
00:53:40Remember at the prom?
00:53:41I spilled punch all over my suit.
00:53:48I spent the rest of the night in the bathroom with the hand dryer.
00:53:53Yeah, I missed you.
00:53:53Mind if I cut in?
00:54:02Declan, hey.
00:54:03Hey, I'm sorry I'm late.
00:54:05Declan.
00:54:07Jude and I grew up together.
00:54:09He moved after high school.
00:54:10Yeah, my name's Jude.
00:54:12Wow, that's great.
00:54:13Yeah, what brings you back to Earhart?
00:54:15I'm just visiting, catching up, friends and family.
00:54:20My mom still lives here, hanging out with her.
00:54:23A little bit, trying to get away from work, which, yeah.
00:54:26That doesn't seem to be happening, though.
00:54:28So I'm going to...
00:54:29Excuse me.
00:54:34Alistair, hi.
00:54:36There's no evidence to suggest that she is an algorithm of any kind.
00:54:40She just seems like a dedicated business owner.
00:54:42Then do some more digging.
00:54:44I've been in this game a long time, Jude, and no one gets to 91% on goodwill and skill.
00:54:48I'm telling you.
00:54:49Yeah, okay.
00:54:50I'll keep looking into it.
00:54:53Uh, Alistair, she can't keep up at the rate she's going.
00:54:56She's going to pronounce it.
00:54:58That's a long-term solution, kid.
00:55:00The vote's in two days.
00:55:01Figure it out, or you can stay there in your little Valentine's town.
00:55:16Melissa the Matchmaker, weaknesses and opportunities.
00:55:21In spite of her high success rate and the promised expansion of services,
00:55:25Melissa the Matchmaker is still a one-stop shop.
00:55:29And she's in danger of overextension, which is going to lead to a drop in both quality of service and referrals.
00:55:38If the people of Arrowheart allow Alibi Industries to acquire the land they require for their resort,
00:55:48Lisa's going to...
00:55:50Melissa's services are going to get their first real dose of competition.
00:56:08And...
00:56:08Her business is going to fail.
00:56:10Got your next date set up.
00:56:19Coffee at Tabby's so you're on familiar turf.
00:56:222 p.m. tomorrow.
00:56:23Her name is Katie.
00:56:24She's in sales, often on the road, lives two towns over, looking for someone who isn't tied down.
00:56:29I think it could be a great fit.
00:56:30Uh, yeah, thanks.
00:56:39I'll be there.
00:56:41Hello?
00:56:43Richie.
00:56:44Yeah, no.
00:56:45Sure, what's up?
00:56:48Yeah, I can be there in 20 minutes.
00:56:51Okay.
00:56:51I can't believe it.
00:56:59I just, I kept thinking there's to be more than this.
00:57:03I asked her if she wanted to get out of here, but she was worried about her business and who would look after it.
00:57:09I just, I felt trapped.
00:57:12So, I told her I needed a break.
00:57:15So, so what's next?
00:57:17What now?
00:57:17I don't know.
00:57:20I just grabbed a bunch of my stuff and left.
00:57:26Hey, what does this all mean for your vote on Wednesday?
00:57:30You think you're still going to recommend the development of the resort?
00:57:34Because think about it, that could bring in some big money.
00:57:38And then all of a sudden you'd be mayor of a city that's taking off.
00:57:41And they're, of course, they're going to need help with development.
00:57:44That's permits, contracts, integration with local businesses.
00:57:49Like, that's really big city stuff.
00:57:51Like, L.A.
00:57:52Big city stuff.
00:57:55And with you here, you'd, Richie, you'd really be able to protect the fabric of this town.
00:57:59You'd be a hero.
00:58:01Might give you some direction.
00:58:03Inspiration.
00:58:05Could even give you the space to be able to patch things up with Tabby.
00:58:08Yeah, maybe.
00:58:13Could be a good opportunity for me.
00:58:16Yeah, I mean, just whatever feels right for you.
00:58:20Yeah.
00:58:21Thanks, man.
00:58:23Yeah.
00:58:25Here's to new possibilities.
00:58:27Amen.
00:58:28Amen.
00:58:31She said high school romances, they always feel real.
00:58:35But you have to test them to know for sure if they're going to last.
00:58:37And then she just pulled the trigger.
00:58:40I was devastated.
00:58:42The romantic side of me, it really shut down after that.
00:58:44And then I just left.
00:58:46And then her mom passed.
00:58:47And I didn't call.
00:58:49And then my dad passed.
00:58:50She didn't call either.
00:58:52I never really got along with my dad either.
00:58:55He wasn't good to my mom.
00:58:57I think that played a really big part of it.
00:59:00She forgave him.
00:59:01I just never could.
00:59:01So to answer your question.
00:59:07What was your question?
00:59:09Where are you from?
00:59:11Right.
00:59:12Yeah.
00:59:12Sorry.
00:59:13Right here.
00:59:15Dunedin.
00:59:17Arrowheart.
00:59:18Originally.
00:59:19But I'm sure you picked up on that.
00:59:20Yeah, I did.
00:59:22And now you're in L.A.?
00:59:24Yeah.
00:59:25Well, no.
00:59:25Now, I'm right in front of you having coffee.
00:59:29In Arrowheart.
00:59:29At least for a couple more days, I think.
00:59:34L.A. is my home.
00:59:36I guess.
00:59:39Lisa just thought, you know, maybe it'd be good for me to get out.
00:59:42Maybe I'd hit it off with someone.
00:59:44Listen, Jude.
00:59:45It's obvious you and Lisa have a history.
00:59:48That's very complicated.
00:59:50What?
00:59:50No.
00:59:51No, no, no.
00:59:51It's not complicated.
00:59:52That was ages ago.
00:59:53I'm sure it was.
00:59:54But I think you need to take some time and figure out what she means to you today.
01:00:00What are you talking about?
01:00:01This is just my friend.
01:00:05Thanks for meeting up.
01:00:06Can I transfer you the money for the coffee?
01:00:09What?
01:00:09No, no, no.
01:00:09No, please.
01:00:10I'll take care of it.
01:00:14Listen, Jude.
01:00:15I really hope you'll find what you're looking for.
01:00:24Can I get you anything else?
01:00:26Oh, no.
01:00:27I'm great.
01:00:28All right.
01:00:29Thanks.
01:00:31Hey, stranger.
01:00:32Hope we can count on your support tomorrow to save Arrowheart.
01:00:36Hi.
01:00:36What are you guys doing here?
01:00:38Where's Katie?
01:00:40She left.
01:00:40Wait, did you come here to spy on me?
01:00:45What?
01:00:46No.
01:00:48We wanted to grab coffee, so I suggested here.
01:00:52I was going to check on you, too.
01:00:53Um, it's all part of my server.
01:00:56Wow.
01:00:57Wow, you're so hands-on.
01:00:59How convenient.
01:01:00Are you sure you don't have some, like, specialty app that helps you with everything?
01:01:05Advanced technology and algorithms, something.
01:01:07So Katie laughed, huh?
01:01:08Yep.
01:01:09I blew it.
01:01:10That's not my idea.
01:01:11Hey, it happens, right?
01:01:12You'll find the right girl.
01:01:15Yeah, thanks.
01:01:17Hey, man.
01:01:17Thanks again for helping Lisa with the decorations.
01:01:20You know, the festival's going to be great.
01:01:22Yeah, it was nothing.
01:01:23Well, I'll have to have you over for dinner sometime.
01:01:27Anyway, we'll, uh, catch you tomorrow at the festival.
01:01:31How about tonight?
01:01:33Tonight?
01:01:34Dinner.
01:01:35Yeah.
01:01:36Because I think, you know, after tomorrow, I'm probably going to be heading back to L.A.
01:01:42And it would be great to take you up on the offer for dinner and spend a little extra time with you.
01:01:46Yeah.
01:01:47Um, tonight.
01:01:49That, that, that would be great.
01:01:51Right, honey?
01:01:52Absolutely.
01:01:53Yeah.
01:01:54Great.
01:01:55Say six.
01:01:56How seven?
01:01:57Let's do six.
01:01:58I'll be there.
01:02:01Great.
01:02:03Great.
01:02:05Great.
01:02:09So he's at the top of the stairs.
01:02:11He takes one step back.
01:02:12In my defense, the stairs are slippery.
01:02:14The stairs were fine.
01:02:15They were fine.
01:02:16He just forgets there's one in front of him.
01:02:17And damn, he goes tumbling down the staircase and right into the front row.
01:02:21Right on top of Miss Chesterton.
01:02:23Who was not impressed.
01:02:24Our music teacher.
01:02:25What happened then?
01:02:26Oh, he stayed in character.
01:02:27You stayed in character.
01:02:28Because I'm a thespian.
01:02:29When Professor Henry Higgins falls, he dusts himself off, offers an apology, and goes right
01:02:34back to his elocution lessons with Miss Doolittle here.
01:02:38Sounds like you guys had a great time.
01:02:41Yeah, we did.
01:02:41We did.
01:02:42Simply times them.
01:02:44Well, I'm going to check on the cake and make a phone call.
01:02:47Well, why don't you take Jude on a tour?
01:02:51Yes.
01:02:52Um, right this way, Professor Higgins.
01:02:55Eliza.
01:03:01And we'll make our way down this hallway.
01:03:03You have the powder room over here.
01:03:06I put those tiles in last month.
01:03:08You put those in?
01:03:09No.
01:03:10I had someone put them in.
01:03:11Very nice.
01:03:15And here's the master bedroom, lovingly decorated by me.
01:03:21And we'll go this way.
01:03:22I want to show you my favorite part of the house.
01:03:25And now we are arriving to my little home office.
01:03:30It isn't much to look at, but I do my consultations during the day, so I take my work home with me.
01:03:37This is cute.
01:03:38Thanks.
01:03:41And, uh, since you're here, uh, could you fix a tech problem for me?
01:03:46Computer?
01:03:47Yeah.
01:03:47Yeah, of course.
01:03:49Okay.
01:03:49What's going on?
01:03:50Um, it did some stupid auto-update, and it says it's not connected.
01:03:56I...
01:03:57Yeah, I mean, that's an easy fix.
01:04:05So all you have to...
01:04:07I can take care of it.
01:04:14Okay.
01:04:14Yeah.
01:04:15Oh, it's Tavi.
01:04:16I should take it.
01:04:17Yeah, you definitely should, but she filled me in on everything.
01:04:20I know he lost her.
01:04:21He just made a stupid snap decision.
01:04:24Hey, sweetheart.
01:04:26Now I can talk.
01:04:27I'll see you tomorrow, and we'll figure this out.
01:04:57Hey, sorry about that.
01:04:59Yeah, everything okay?
01:05:01She's holding on hope.
01:05:03They can work this out.
01:05:04I know it.
01:05:04Yeah, I think so, too.
01:05:06They're great for each other.
01:05:07Well, good news is, uh, you are officially reconnected.
01:05:10Ah, you're a genius.
01:05:14You did it.
01:05:18Dessert's ready.
01:05:21Coming.
01:05:21Coming.
01:05:21I think I nailed it.
01:05:49Hope you saved some room, Jude.
01:05:55Hey, can I, uh, can I talk to you guys about something?
01:05:59What's going on?
01:06:02So this resort, you guys know who's trying to make it happen, right?
01:06:06Yes, um, Alibi Industries.
01:06:10They're an investment group.
01:06:13Yeah, they are.
01:06:15It's an investment group.
01:06:18So the majority owner happens to be my boss.
01:06:24Alistair Bradfield.
01:06:25And Alibi also owns the tech company that I work for.
01:06:30Hotspot.
01:06:32The dating app.
01:06:36I'm not just here visiting with my mom.
01:06:40Lisa, you're the only thing that's standing in the way of Alibi buying the land that it needs to be able to develop the resort.
01:06:46So my boss, they sent me down here so that I could discover your secrets.
01:06:50Well, Melissa, the matchmaker's secrets.
01:06:52And, um, figure out a way to take you down.
01:06:56And then just make sure that the vote passes on the resort.
01:07:01Are you serious?
01:07:02Yeah.
01:07:03But after being here for a few days and seeing you and the folks in the town,
01:07:09just everything that you guys have built together,
01:07:11the great lengths that you guys go, just to help people find love.
01:07:15What's beautiful about this place is that it hasn't been corrupted by people like Alistair.
01:07:20And people like me.
01:07:23I think you should go.
01:07:26What I'm saying is I'm not going through with it.
01:07:28I'm not doing it anymore.
01:07:30I want to help.
01:07:31I want to save Aroha.
01:07:33I want to find a way to make sure Alistair's...
01:07:35You should go.
01:07:36You should go.
01:08:01I want to save Aroha.
01:08:06LAUGHTER
01:08:36Morning, sunshine. Leaving already?
01:08:45Yeah. Mom, I think I made a mistake coming here.
01:08:57How do the heart?
01:09:02You and your hearts.
01:09:06You know what, you were right. When you asked me if I was happy, I'm not happy.
01:09:13Stay for today.
01:09:16For a one-of-a-kind Earhart Valentine's Day.
01:09:21I can't. I can't. I blew it with Lisa.
01:09:29I lied to myself about being over her. I'm not.
01:09:37And seeing her and Declan together on Valentine's Day is just going to remind me how alone I really feel.
01:09:44You are never alone here, Jude.
01:09:46But there are so many people that love and value you.
01:09:53Starting right here.
01:09:58Come on, it'll be fun.
01:10:04Honey.
01:10:05You are going to be okay.
01:10:11I promise.
01:10:11I promise.
01:10:12You are going to be okay.
01:10:13You are going to be okay.
01:10:13I promise.
01:10:13I promise.
01:10:14I promise.
01:10:14I promise.
01:10:15I promise.
01:10:15I promise.
01:10:16I promise.

01:10:17I promise.
01:10:18I promise.
01:10:18I promise.
01:10:18I promise.
01:10:18I promise.
01:10:19I promise.
01:10:19I promise.
01:10:20I promise.
01:10:20I promise.
01:10:20I promise.
01:10:21I promise.
01:10:21I promise.
01:10:21I promise.
01:10:22I promise.
01:10:22I promise.
01:10:22I promise.
01:10:23I promise.
01:10:24I promise.
01:10:24I promise.
01:10:24I promise.
01:10:25I promise.
01:10:25I promise.

01:10:27I promise.
01:10:27I promise.
01:10:28I promise.
01:10:28I promise.
01:10:29I promise.
01:10:29I promise.
01:10:30Happy Valentine's.
01:10:50If you're local, please vote no on the resort development.
01:10:53Where are you going?
01:11:06Yeah, I don't think I should be here.
01:11:09I'm going to be straight up because apparently subtlety doesn't work with you.
01:11:15Be brave.
01:11:17Take a chance.
01:11:19You might crash, but if you don't try, you've already crashed.
01:11:24Follow your heart, Judy.
01:11:26Get out of here!
01:11:28Yeah, yeah, okay.
01:11:29Be brave.
01:11:30I'll be brave.
01:11:31Alistair.
01:11:32Hey there, kid.
01:11:33What are you doing here?
01:11:34I'm doing what you couldn't do.
01:11:36Or, more accurately, what you wouldn't.
01:11:40That's not what it looks like.
01:11:42I thought I could count on you, but I guess you're soft, just like this little town of yours.
01:11:47Honestly, all this crap and nobody's making any money off of it.
01:11:51Hey, these are good people here.
01:11:52Are they?
01:11:53Well, then they'll all be very good and happy when I turn this dump into a real town.
01:11:57Mr. Bradfield.
01:11:58Please call me Alistair.
01:11:59Jude, how's it going?
01:12:01But, may I call you, Mr. Mayor?
01:12:03Oh, God, no.
01:12:04Richie's fine.
01:12:05Good to see you, Richie.
01:12:06We all set?
01:12:07Yes, right this way.
01:12:08You think I didn't have a plan B and C?
01:12:15You're fired, by the way, just in case that wasn't obvious.
01:12:38Hi.
01:12:39What do you want?
01:12:41Uh, look, so I know that I haven't been the most.
01:12:44Ladies and gentlemen, happy Valentine's Day.
01:12:47Woo!
01:12:49Later.
01:12:55Hey.
01:12:56Hey.
01:12:57Hey.
01:12:58Hey.
01:12:59It is my pleasure to welcome you all to the 67th annual Valentine's Day Festival in our fair town of Earhart.
01:13:06Now, I know we've had a lively debate over the question of the Allaby Industries development proposal.
01:13:17I know many of you are waiting to hear what I have to say before you make up your minds.
01:13:21If you're from here, it's certainly likely that you have some strong opinions about what this town represents
01:13:26and why it should stay that way.
01:13:28But, I thought it was only fair for us to hear a little bit more about the development and what it might mean for all of us.
01:13:33So, with that in mind, I've invited Mr. Alistair Bradfield, the majority owner of Allaby Industries, to come and say a few words for his side of the debate.
01:13:41Are you kidding me?
01:13:42Are you kidding me?
01:13:50My friends, it is so great to be here in Arrowheart.
01:13:54And I know that together, we can make it what it truly deserves to be.
01:13:59A beacon for love and happiness, where people will come from all over the country, from all over the world, to share in the spirit of that love and happiness.
01:14:10They already do! To see Melissa?
01:14:14Yes, Melissa. The matchmaker.
01:14:19I know that Ms. Bloom has rallied a lot of opposition to our proposal, but she's not being honest with you about why.
01:14:26It is purely to serve the interests of her business, so that she can convince her would-be customers that they, too, can share in the fairytale romance like she and her main squeeze, Mr. Declan Harper.
01:14:38But I'm afraid that, too, is a lie.
01:14:41I have some photographs here of Mr. Harper and some other woman who is clearly not Ms. Bloom.
01:14:50The entire opposition to this development is predicated on Ms. Bloom trying to save herself and her business, not your wonderful town.
01:15:01My friends, I implore you, don't listen to someone who doesn't have your best interests at heart.
01:15:07You may be worried about change, but change is a good thing.
01:15:12Do what is right for you and for Arrowheart.
01:15:17Vote yes.
01:15:24Hey, what are you doing?
01:15:26Give me one second, one second.
01:15:28Wait, everyone, everyone?
01:15:30My name is Jude Whitlock, and I see a lot of familiar faces from when I grew up here.
01:15:39So hopefully you'll remember me and are willing to hear what I have to say.
01:15:43I know this man.
01:15:45Up until five minutes ago, I used to work for him.
01:15:48Don't believe a word he says.
01:15:50He does not have our best interests at heart.
01:15:53He's here for one reason and one reason only, so that he can get even bigger stacks of cash for himself and his investors.
01:16:03Arrowheart, we are better than that.
01:16:08And Alistair, whatever secrets you think you uncovered about Lisa and Declan, that wasn't yours to reveal.
01:16:15Nor does that discredit the incredible work that she's done for this community.
01:16:20She has helped hundreds of couples find their special someone without some silly app.
01:16:26Because love is not an algorithm.
01:16:31I know our town is struggling, but after being back here just for a few days, it's easy to see.
01:16:36We don't need some tacky themed resort to save our town.
01:16:40All we have to do is show the world who we are and embrace it.
01:16:45All of our flaws, all of our quirks, all the joy that we get just from being a part of this community.
01:16:51Yes, it's going to take some time, energy, money, effort, and a good dose of 21st century technology.
01:16:58Which if our great mayor approves, I'd like to offer my services to the town for free.
01:17:06Arrowheart isn't about fear, cynicism, and greed.
01:17:09It's about love and opening our hearts to each other.
01:17:12But that's what it means when we say Valentine's Day every day.
01:17:17Every day.
01:17:34Now that we've heard from both sides, let the voting begin.
01:17:48Tabby, I am so sorry.
01:17:51I guess I've been feeling restless and I didn't know how to tell you.
01:17:54I don't want anything else.
01:17:56Because anything else would just take me away from you.
01:17:59Just know that I will work every day to show you my love.
01:18:06Not in front of the constituents.
01:18:08I love you, cupcake.
01:18:09I love you too.
01:18:17I love you too.
01:18:20Folks, can I have your attention?
01:18:23The votes have been tallied.
01:18:27The yeses are.
01:18:2929%!
01:18:31With 71% voting no!
01:18:33But it's a nice thing in this country.
01:18:35I love you too!
01:18:37I love you too!
01:18:39I love you too!
01:18:41I love you too!
01:18:43I love you too!
01:18:45I love you too!
01:18:49I love you too!
01:18:51I love you too!
01:18:53I love you too!
01:18:54Hey Alistair.
01:18:56You lost.
01:18:57In case that wasn't obvious.
01:18:59I love you too.
01:19:00that was pretty incredible
01:19:13I'm serious
01:19:14I can do this
01:19:15I can make it work
01:19:16so you're gonna move here?
01:19:19yeah I don't think I've ever truly been happy
01:19:22in LA
01:19:22I'm happy here
01:19:24and I've been on so many dates
01:19:27I've lost track
01:19:29the only time that I've ever felt any real connection
01:19:32was on our practice day with you
01:19:34Lisa I know that the last few days have been absolutely crazy
01:19:37and you have no reason to want to talk to me
01:19:39no look Declan and I broke up three months ago
01:19:41everyone held us up as this idealized couple
01:19:45and I was terrified for the business
01:19:48if we failed as a couple
01:19:49we decided to break the news to everyone after the vote
01:19:53well someone very special to me told me that
01:19:58if you're looking for love
01:20:00honesty is a critical component
01:20:03you have to be honest with yourself
01:20:05about what you want
01:20:06about what you need
01:20:07about where
01:20:08change can be scary
01:20:21breaking out of your comfort zone can be frightening
01:20:24whether it's a breakup
01:20:26losing a job
01:20:27or even moving from one home to another
01:20:30but your evolution as a human being depends on it
01:20:34just remember
01:20:35we're all on a journey
01:20:37so when we hit a bump in the road
01:20:39it's just a reminder to take a moment
01:20:41and make sure we know where we're going
01:20:43you'll find the right way forward
