Love Blossoms Page #2

interviews go?

Not good enough.

You want me to post

the job again?

Yeah, I

think so.

I think

we should.

Your father

could smell

a single drop of lime

in a glass of water.

Try a single drop

of lime in a gallon.

He was a

superhero.

Yeah, he was.

He was like a--

like a bloodhound.

God, he could smell

things from a mile away.

That's amazing, I've never

met anyone else like him.

I know.

One whiff and...

Violet...?

Is everything okay?

Yeah, don't post

the job listing okay?

I'll be back,

all right?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, here you

go, no problem.

Hi!

Excuse me, hi.

I just wanted to know if you

could help me find your friend.

I've got a

lot of friends.

The Apple Iced

Matcha guy?

We only serve

Iced Matcha here.

The one who spilled on me

and then I spilled and then--

Oh right.

Yeah, you

mean Dec!

Yeah Dec, yeah!

Okay sure, come

back tomorrow.

Same time, he's like

a homing pigeon.

Oh no, no, no.

I'm sorry, it's

really important

that I speak to

him today, please.

(sighs)

You'd be doing

me a huge favor.

Okay, fine.

Thanks.

You're not a

psycho, are you?

No, I'm not.

Okay, right,

even better.

Excuse me, do you know where

I can find Declan Granger?

I'm heading over there right

now if you want to tag along.

Okay.

So, how do

you know Dec?

I met him at

a coffee house.

Bean Fix?

Yes.

I always hoped he'd end

up with a nice girl like you.

Oh, no, no, no.

We're not-- no, no no.

Never mind.

Okay, so you follow that

path, past the Magnolias

and it will lead you

straight to the Conservatory.

Perfect,

thank you.

And to Dec.

Merci.

Ooops, ahh.

Don't worry, it's

gonna bite you.

It's just lavender.

Hi, apple

Iced Matcha.

Hey, Miss

Black Coffee.

Violet.

Violet Chappel.

Hey there.

Dec, nice to

meet you.

You know Violets is

the flower for loyalty.

Yes.

So I'm guessing this

isn't a coincidence?

No, I just

wanted to know.

Why Apple

Iced Matcha?

What's that?

Earlier, today.

You talked about

inventing Apple Iced Matcha.

I mean, I know why the

Matcha but why apple?

Is this a

trick question?

No, just curious.

Because I

smelled apple.

So you did--

Yeah.

You smelled

apple on me!

That's incredible,

I mean,

My scarf barely touched

a few apple blossoms.

You have a very

rare sense of smell

and to be able to know

combinations of scents

and plants and

smells, that's--

No, no, no, I

just know plants.

For instance, you keep

walking that direction,

you'll rub against a Poison

Oak and get a wicked rash.

Ah, stay

away from that.

I was wondering, can you

tell me what you smell?

No, I hate

perfume.

You're a gardener, what do you

think perfumes are made of?

Noxious chemicals,

and I am a Botanist.

Okay, Mr. Botanist.

Please?

Oakmoss...

Sandalwood

and Vetiver.

Wait, Sandalwood?

Yup.

You're sure?

Positive.

You have been more than

helpful, thank you so much.

Hey.

Hi!

Come here.

So I have gone

over the books.

Yes?

And your

father, yeah,

he put everything into

this trilogy of perfumes.

But it's safe

to say that,

if you don't deliver on

this deadline with SKY,

it's financially

devastating.

(phone ringing)

You might want

to get that.

What do you

mean devastating?

Well Vi, you're

stretched to the limit.

But with the success

of SEA and LAND,

you can hand

in SKY tomorrow

and Harv is not going

to know the difference.

So it's good

enough.

It's not

good enough.

My family's name

is on that perfume.

This is the last perfume my

father's ever going to create.

I mean, SKY has to do

the Trilogy justice.

We will, we'll

do it justice.

But I just feel like you're

going to be happier in Boston.

At home.

That's where

your life is.

Give in the

perfume as is.

I hear you...

But I can't.

It's okay, hey.

Oh, by the way, that

promising Perfumer--

Yeah?

Cancelled his

meeting today.

I'm thinking it's Caine,

trying to drain the talent pool.

You know what, don't

even worry about it.

I think I may

know someone.

Yeah?

Who?

You don't know him, but

can you do me a favor?

Can you take the

meeting with Harv?

Look, tell him

everything is on track.

We just need a couple more

days with my Dad's passing.

I don't work here.

I know, but you're the

best businessman I know.

Where are

you off to?

To follow

my nose.

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Hey Gus, you okay?

My back is

acting up again.

Here, let me

help you with that.

I can

handle pain.

Until it

hurts, right?

Take a seat.

You're cream

of the crop.

You never told me that

you have a girlfriend.

(grunts)

That's because

I don't.

Then you should ask that

nice lady out on a date.

(laughing)

Oh Gus,

you're too much.

That's what

my wife says!

Okay, I'm

back in five.

Hey, put some

ice on that.

Hi?

Hey, Professor!

What, are

you stalking me?

Maybe a little, but you did

peak my interest earlier.

Oh yeah...?

Professionally.

I was wondering...

What do

you smell?

What are

you doing?

Any Lily-of-the-Valley?

What's the proportion

of the blend?

What, is this

some kind of joke?

No.

Who put you

up to this?

Gus?

Huh?

No, it was Ty,

wasn't it?

(phone ringing)

Oh shoot.

I'm sorry, will you just excuse

me one really quick second?

Hi.

Harv is ticked off

that you're not here.

He said he wanted to

speak with the interim CEO,

not the, and I quote,

lackey assistant.

Okay, can you just

deal with it please.

I'm right in the

middle of something.

Violet, he's

threatening to sue.

Caine fed him

a bunch of lies,

and he said you

can't meet the deadline.

Okay, so

put him on.

Here you go...

Violet, I have some serious

concerns about the launch.

I heard you don't have

the formula for SKY.

Oh no,

that's not true.

Actually, I'm working

on it as we speak.

Look, I have

invested a fortune

in this Valentine's

Day campaign.

SKY should already

be in my warehouse.

Of course,

I understand.

But out of respect

for Chappel's,

could you give us just

a little bit more time?

I can't move

Valentine's Day.

You've got

twelve days.

Okay...

Sorry about that.

No, that's

all right.

So what are you

actually doing here?

Well you see,

my family--

well, I, own a

perfumery and we have

exactly twelve days

to recreate this.

And you're what we

call a Nose, you know,

someone who has a

phenomenal sense of smell.

And I'm here because I

want to offer you a job.

I've already

got one, thanks.

This is an opportunity

of a lifetime.

To smell perfume?

I'll have you know that Napoleon

used 54 bottles of cologne

every month and he always wore

his favorite scent into battle.

Oh, is that why

he was exiled?

I would kill to have

your sense of smell.

You know, making your own

perfume-- it's the ultimate.

Listen.

I'll raise your salary,

name your terms,

I'm sure we can

work something out.

Working for Chappel is

amazing, we're one big,

happy family and I know

you'll fit right in.

It's not gonna work.

Granger!

Where you been?
