Sergio, Sergio.

Step four:

the follow-through.

Just in case things don't

go well that night,

always have some

reason to see her again.

David, I almost forgot.

You won a sweet item from

the charity raffle last month.

Congrats.

Thank you, that's great.

It's dinner for two

at Charlie Trotter's.

This is my mom's favorite

restaurant.

She'll be so excited.

Oh, that's so sweet.

Oh, no, it expires

on Sunday

and she's

out of town this weekend.

This sucks.

Hey, you know what...

she can't use 'em, there's no

use letting 'em go to waste.

Would you like to go?

Sure, I'd love to.

Great.

Just take somebody who

appreciates good food.

This move is like

the Jedi mind trick.

"Why don't you

go with me?

They're your certificates."

Well, hey, they're

your certificates.

Why don't you go with me?

And the most important step?

Step five:

the Groucho effect.

Groucho Marx once said,

"I wouldn't

belong to any club

that would have me

as a member."

Well, it was very nice

meeting you, Susan,

and I look

forward to dinner.

Leaving so soon?

If you show interest

in a girl too soon,

if she gets into

the club too easily,

she thinks she can

do better.

You know what?

I promised my girlfriend I

would try and stop by tonight.

Your girlfriend?

But if you make her work

to get into the club,

she thinks she's

lucky to get you.

Why don't you stay for just

one more glass of wine?

You know what?

I'd love to,

but I really shouldn't.

It's extremely difficult

and a bit of a gamble.

But if you have patience

and play the game right,

it pays off.

Come on.

One more glass isn't

gonna kill you, is it?

And when she fills your

wine glass

slightly more than hers,

it means she wants to take

advantage of you.

That's when

you know you've won.

Cheers.

Game over.

Watching you

in action last night,

David, was amazing.

Just amazing.

Rob get you home okay?

Forget about me.

I wanna hear

what happened with you.

Well, let me

put it this way.

Look what I'm wearing.

It's the same clothes

I wore last night.

Well, I'll be glad to pay

for some new clothes

if things are

a little tight.

No, I didn't

change clothes

from last night.

Talk about lazy.

Think, Grandpa.

Think.

Why didn't

I change clothes?

Ohh!

Oh, you devil, you!

All right, all right.

Listen.

Step one:

reconnaissance.

Do you know what kind of

woman you wanna meet?

Yeah, your grandmother.

Let me explain

something to you, David.

I'm not gonna

waste my time

on just anybody.

I have needs,

you see.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hold on.

Needs?

Are you...

are you saying that

you can still...

do the wild thing?

The what thing?

That you're still
