I'm down too.

Emily. What am I down with?

Oh, my goodness. It's a....

Your... Check your desktop.

Oh, crap.

- Hi.

Bi-curious? Skinny-dipping?

Rollerblading?

I mean, what is this, 1994?

You looked adorable in those shorts.

Men are gonna respond to that camel toe.

I'm gonna kill you, Trish.

Uh, how about "thank you"?

My office thinks I clean my house

in a naughty nurse costume.

That's fine.

That means you're open to role-paying.

We're trying to cast a wide net.

We don't know what guys you like.

You've got me in a keg stand

looking for a relationship.

- I don't even know what that means.

- You're flexible.

Guys wanna know that you're flexible

How do I cancel it?

You're not canceling it.

I'm in charge of that.

Wait a second. Who is that?

Oh, my God. He's cute.

Let me get this straight.

You put your personal, private details...

- ...on a very public website?

- Yes.

- Are you insane?

- No.

- Where you taking her?

- Don't do that to me.

- Taking her to the Blarney Stone.

- I like the jukebox.

- You're such a cheeseball.

- What?

You're gonna go on this date

and I'm gonna go with you.

- No, you're not.

- Yes, I am.

I'm scared.

You haven't done this in a long time.

This girl could be all sorts of crazy.

And, besides,

half those girls pee standing up, Tuck.

The other half

are on one of our watch lists.

- It's a date.

- Look, lucky for you, I'm free tonight.

And I'm gonna bring the binoculars,

the hand cream...

...keep a hundred-yard radius.

It'll be sweet stuff.

No, you can't bring the binoculars.

You're not watching my date.

I need a little privacy.

I'll be around the corner on ringtone.

I'll be at the video store.

One ring means you need an extraction,
