SYNOPSIS:

Synopsis: On entering her new workplace for the first time,

Barbra collides with Skip, a graduate student who works as a salesman

for the firm. As usual, Skip had been in a hurry to meet a client.

Barbra is welcomed by Ms. Rymp, her new supervisor, and her dear friend

Jasmine. Later, by way of breaking the ice and making an apology, Skip

brings in some donuts for his officemates, but when he approaches

Barbra, he finds her too involved in her work to engage and, as she is

‘watching her calories’, not interested in accepting a donut. The next

day, as Barbra, Jasmine, and Heidi break for coffee, Skip comes in for a

cup, too, and in his hurry bumps into Jasmine as he turns causing him

to spill his coffee. He apologizes to Barbra for bumping into her who

says not to worry and seeing he is pressed for time, offers to clean up

the spill and does so. Later we see Jasmine in a car with her female

office mates who assure Barbra that Skip is a great guy and invite her

to join them on Thursday evening at Eduardo’s restaurant and bar.

Thursday comes. Everyone is to meet at Eduardo’s after work, however,

Barbra says she will be late as she has a previous commitment. Skip is

there but must hurry out to meet a client and, on his way out, as fate

would have it, in his hurry, he collides with Barbra, knocking her

umbrella to the floor. Skip apologizes, picks up the umbrella, and

suggests they need to stop meeting this way and asks Barbra to join him

for dinner sometime. They agree to work out the details of their meeting

at work the next day. On Friday night Skip arrives with flowers at

Barbra’s, and they go to dinner. At dinner, Barbra considers the

possibility of ordering a cyclone to drink, however on reconsidering,

they both order a brew and toast to smoother sailing . . . for the two

of them.
