People who like

disorder and mayhem.

Those guys always put weird

things in their apartments.

You know, another option...

No, you cannot live with me.

But you can stop hanging

around here and go get a job.

Hey, Mrs. Taylor.

Hey, Lexie.

You here to pick up the

flowers for the hospital?

Yes, I am.

Thank you.

Cool, be right back.

Oh, I saw your mother last week.

She's my favorite nurse.

Oh, well, you're her

favorite volunteer.

She said that you

had a break up.

Are you ok?

I'm fine.

Ok.

You'll bounce back.

I'll get your order.

You're Ethan, aren't you?

Oh, yes ma'am.

Your mother brags about you.

In what way?

She said you're the Helen

Keller of relationships.

She thinks I'm blind and

deaf when it comes to women?

No, you're the miracle worker.

Oh, you mean her

teacher, Amy Sullivan?

How's that?

You help the love

struck Helen Kellers

by shining light on flaws

that they're too blind to see.

I don't understand.

You talked Lexie into

ending it with her boyfriend.

Well, ultimately it was her

decision to do that, but...

Did you convince her

to break up with him?

Kinda.

There you have it.

Your parents hated that boy.

In fact, that they told

me that you've saved

Lexie from a few disasters.

She listens to me.

Why?

She trusts me, and I'm

just good at spotting

incompatibilities.

Why the 20 questions?

Could you do that for me?

Excuse me?

- Oh.

- Here you go.

Thank you.

Um, how much is this?

$10.

Sold.

We have a blind patient

and it's her birthday,

so could you put a ribbon on it?

Thanks.

Can you get rid of my

daughter's boyfriend?

Uh.

Please, I've tried everything.

I've never even

met your daughter.

Yes you have, in

elementary school.

Veronica.

No, I'm sorry.

I don't remember, and

I seriously doubt...

I don't want grandchildren

with no ambition and big ears.

Have you talked to her?

I'm her mother!

She doesn't listen to me.

But she might listen

to a stranger.

Nuh uh.

I'll pay you.

We should use code names.

I don't think that's necessary.

Oh, ok.

All right, this is Veronica.

It's like freaking tinder.

They're all group photos.

I have no idea which one she is.

That's Veronica.

She's pretty.

Thank you.

And that's Zach.

Big ears.

Thank you.

This is information on her.

She has a Maltese named beauty.

Oh, we could get you one, too!

Whoa, whoa... chill, boy.

I'm so sorry, he's

easily excited.

Oh, he is so cute.

What's his name?

Uh, I just call him beast.

Ethan Cooper?

Veronica Taylor.

Yeah.

Huh, you remember me.

Yeah.

It's been forever.

Yeah, it has.

That's a cute dog.

Oh, thanks.

I made a list of

things I don't like about him.

Huh, that's what I do.
