The Bird Show.

We understand you're a little miffed?

I'm, like, I'm miffed and confused and dazed and everything.

Well, tell us about it.

Now, what's her name?

Her name was Tara.

Tara?

Tara, okay.

I know what? I've known her. It wasn't like I just met her out of the blue. It's like I knew her years and years ago. We used to work together at this restaurant. and she was great.

I mean, she was like a totally cool girl, totally nice.

We got along really well.

And then I bumped into her at the mall just like a week and a half ago.

Mm-hmm. I mean, she was like a totally, like, totally cool girl, totally nice. We got along really well, and then I bumped into her at the mall just like a week and a half ago, and I invited her out Friday night. So, I don't know, we went out for, I knew that she liked seafood. We went into a seafood place. It was cool. We, you know, and then it's like really quick dinner. It turned out to a really long dinner, and then we continued to hang out. We talked so much. It was like so easy. You know how that is. You know, when it was easy. What time did the night begin and what time did the night end? Well, I started early on purpose just in case it sort of bombs, you know? That's a good idea. So we started like at like 630 or so, 645. And then we finished dinner around 10.30 at night or something. We just kept on hanging out. And then she took me to this patio bar somewhere. I don't even know. And we just, we hung out there for a long time. And then I brought her back to her place and a bunch of her friends were there. And it just like, the night just kept on going on and on and on and on and on.

I didn't leave there until 5 a.m. in the morning. Wow. I was totally a gentleman. I mean, we did kiss a little bit, but it was like totally just chatting. Like one of those cool, cool nights, just like talking and hanging out and listening and stuff like that. I thought it was just great. Was it just the two of you or was it a group you said either a friend?

Yeah, yeah.

When we first got there, there was it a group you said, either a friend...

Yeah, yeah. When we first got there, there was a bunch of her friends there, and we had a very cool tie with them. We were laughing a lot. Is there anything that happened with you and the friends? I mean, not that I could think... I really, really, really truthfully, not that I could think up. I thought it went really well. And then we hung out for a while after that.

Because I just think friends are so influential in a decision that I could think of. I thought it went really well. And then we hung out for a while after that.

Because I just think friends are so influential in a decision that I just wonder if they are playing a factor.

This is how these things go. You know, like after a great first date, if it doesn't happen the second day, you just start picking apart and dissecting every little thing that happened in that 24 hours, you know?

All right, Alan, let's do this. Okay? We're going to get Tara on with us, and we're going to ask her to come clean with you. Now, you have to make this agreement that if we get her on, she can say whatever she wants, and your feelings you have to set those aside, because what's most important here is just that you have closure on the whole thing. I will.

All right.
