-This sucks.

-Don't move an inch.

-You're really enjoying this, aren't you?

-More than you know.

As you've heard many times

before right here...

you're not prepared to cook vegetables

unless you're prepared to pick them.

You don' t just ask anybody to dance.

You ask the girl that looks good to you.

Now, what's wrong

with this picture?

This lady has had

a night of self-indulgence.

You don't take her home

to your mom.

This is perfection.

"P" for perfect.

No detergents

smelling up her aroma.

No bruises shading her figure.

No, this is perfect. Wait!

Where is Al?

Alfred?

There he is. Al, my son.

Al, come out here. Come on.

Don't dawdle. These people

have got places do go.

My son, Al,

ladies and gentlemen.

He's going to be a chef too.

He's so cute.

Feel that. You tell me,

is that perfection?

Yeah, it's pretty ripe.

Al knows how to pick perfection.

How do I know?

Because she's in the audience

right now. And she is a tomato.

Imogen. I said it right this time.

Stand up, honey.

Stand up. Come on.

There she is.

-Say hello to your parents.

-Hi.

-Did you pick perfection or what?

-Yeah, dad. She's perfect for me.

When you're falling in love, sometimes

one night makes it complete.

In our case, it was my birthday.

Imogen went all out.

"Find the other candle."

The other candle?

Happy birthday.

-You look...

-You like?

-I like it a lot.

-Good.

-Where are we?

-I wanted this night to be special.

I wanted to share something that's

important to me with you.

This is my favorite place

in New York. I come here a lot...

if I'm feeling down or homesick,

or if I just need a little inspiration.

This place has real soul.

It's not like those cheesy art galleries

which have T-shirts and postcards.

This is why I want

to be an artist.

Here, come on.

They're all so beautiful.

I don't know much about art.

I kind of stopped with finger-painting.

But I like this...

...blurry one.

-It's impressionistic.

It's not about how you see the world.

It's how the artist sees it.

It's somehow completely personal.

What do you see in this?

-Morning?

-Morning.

Well, yeah. See, because all the

colors, the oranges and yellows...

it kinda reminds me of

two people having eggs.

-I don' t know.

-Do you see what the artist did...

with the way the colors

blend with the light?

And the brush technique says

something about the ambiance.

It sets a mood with

its luminous tones...

and brilliant colors.

It's really just a moment captured...

but in away that

makes it feel...

alive.

You make me feel alive.

This is the best birthday

I've ever had.

There's more upstairs.

I'm falling in love with you.

I love you.
