A Date with Miss Fortune Page #6

Synopsis: When Jack gets rescued by Maria, a superstitious Portuguese beauty, he has no idea that his life and luck are both about to change. During this accidental "first date", Jack and Maria project idealistic images of themselves -- images that are humorously contradicted through a series of flash-forwards to their future life together.

memory of his deceased wife.

They say it's the world's most magnificent

monument dedicated to love and devotion.

What does it look like?

Oh, words can't even describe it.

It's just, so incredible.

Mmm, I am so jealous.

Here you are, this world traveller

and I've hardly been anywhere.

I figure we've only got this one world,

we should try and experience it.

Oh, you're alive!

I am.

Thank God.

See I assumed you were

dead because why else

when we have a network pitch

coming up would you go AWOL

and stop answering your email

and your phone and your text.

Uhh.

Um, holy sh*t!

Looks like Martha Stewart vomited in here.

What's going on?

I uhh, I got a roommate.

You're living with someone?

Yeah, my fianc.

Get the f...

Are you serious?

Yeah.

You're serious!?

Oh my god no, no, no.

This is the worst thing that

could happen to a writing team!

Wilson, come on,

Oh and you already got that

stupid look on your face.

No wonder your ideas lick!

You've got love brain!!

Hey, I don't have love brain

and my ideas don't lick!

What about my script "Special Agent Ed"?

That's about a retarded FBI agent!

Oh my god.

I do have love brain.

Ditch this chick.

Cause we've got three

network pitches coming up,

and we have Jack!

That's funny, I should write that down.

I promise I won't let my relationship

affect our work anymore.

I need this more than you do man.

Mhmm, that's debatable.

But Wilson, you have to meet Maria.

Maria?

Her names Maria, she's ethnic?!

Great!

That's like love brain on crack!!

Don't worry Senora Maria is

very nice, you'll love her.

I'm not worried.

Good.

Ah, Nelia, how are you?

I thought you died.

Evil eye thing, I got one of

these guys again, evil eye.

Oh, Nelia, this is Jack, my fianc.

Jack this is my favorite cousin, Nelia.

He so cute.

Oh my god.

What does Seora Maria think?

That's why we're here.

First time?

Yeah.

Good to see you!

Call me!

I know, I know!

Bye!

Bye.

This is your therapist's office?

Shhhhh!

You've got Tobe kidding me.

Stop it.

What?

This is not the man for you.

You must leave immediately.

What is it, what did she say?

So, how are the Patriots

lookin' on Sunday, huh?

Three turnovers. Pats lose by six.

Why don't you just tell me

what crystal ball lady said?

It's obviously upsetting you.

It's nothing.

Are those the same underwear

you had on last night?

No.

Ugh.

Two days in a row.

That's disgusting.

I showered before bed last night.

Why should I change them

after only sleeping in them?

Because that's the rule.

Everyone knows everyday

starts off with a fresh pair of underwear.

Well, there's 24-hours Ina

day, so technically...

I'm still good.

I better not catch you
