step five:
the Groucho effect.
Your package is here.
Thank you.
It says that men
won't join any club
that would have them
as a member.
Whoa, wait, he's here!
I need you.
Oh, I'm so sorry, sweetie.
I'm running late,
I can't do it.
But my Uncle Paul's here.
He used to be
an actor.
Uncle Paul!
Unlike women,
men just don't know
when they've got
something good.
Hello.
But when you make him
work to get in the club,
he thinks he's lucky
to get you.
Okay, come with me.
And because men
sometimes fear commitment,
there's a step six:
the pull-back.
Give him a view of what
life would be like without you,
and that's when he'll realize
what he really wants.
In David's case,
there was nothing like
a one-night stand
to make him realize I wasn't
just another one-night stand.
She's the one.
It's a bit of a gamble,
but if you have patience
and you play the game right,
it pays off.
And with David...
it paid off.
Well, it sure paid off
for you,
but... I don't know.
Hey, Rose!
How about we eat dinner
early tonight?
I'm hungry.
Oh, sorry, sweetie,
dinner with him tonight.
