Ever wonder where your unrealistic expectations of meeting someone in real life come from? Oh, right. Rom-Coms. It's not that you can't meet someone in the real world. It's that you're not gonna fall in love with every person you meet. In episode one, Maisie explores the ridiculousness of that trope as every person in the neighborhood can't help but get all googly eyed over her.

00:00She's so likable, relatable, clumsy and adorable, not looking for love but she
00:04stumbles upon it. This is the real life of a rom-com protagonist.
00:08Well, how far apart are her contractions?
00:11Well, tell my sister that I'm on my way not to have the baby till I get there.
00:14You're right, don't tell her I said that.
00:19I'm so sorry.
00:20No, it's my fault.
00:23Are you the girl on the third floor whose pottery wheel I hear in the morning?
00:26Yeah, I make small mugs for dolls.
00:29I actually pot on the second floor. I make ceramic bongs.
00:34Bongs?
00:34Don't worry, they're purely decorative. The glaze I use is extremely toxic.
00:39Hey look, I don't mean to be too forward, but would you maybe want to come upstairs and check out
00:46my hot kiln?
00:47I would love to.
00:49Bye Ethan, and thanks for the tiny bong. The dolls will love it.
01:04Small hot iced coffee.
01:07Oh, I'm sorry, I think this is my small hot iced coffee.
01:09Impossible, I'm the only one who orders a small hot iced coffee.
01:12Because you get cold brew concentration with the power of steam.
01:17I hope I'm not being too forward, but would you like to share this beverage with me?
01:21I would love to.
01:23I am so sorry.
01:25No, it's fine, it's my fault.
01:27Can we get another hot iced coffee?
01:29Yeah, I have one right here.
01:31How lucky.
01:32You ordered the same thing.
01:34Shit, no, I have to go. My niece is being born right now, okay?
01:37It's just, but...
01:39Before I...
01:41It's even better than I imagined.
01:43Okay, I gotta go.
01:44Do you need a ride? My hybrid convertible is right outside.
01:48Jesus dude, you're killing me.
01:50One more, okay.
01:53It's going in my memory journal.
01:55Okay.
01:57Oh, I am so sorry.
02:00I'm sorry miss, I hope I'm not being too forward, but...
02:03Do you want to adopt a dog together?
02:06Can I be one of those dogs that no one else wants?
02:09Yes.
02:10No, no, no, I have to go, I have to go.
02:16We need a breakup.
02:17We need a breakup.
02:17What?
02:22Shit.
02:26Sorry lady.
02:28I'm sorry if this is forward, but how old are you?
02:3118.
02:32I mean 40.
02:33Can you buy me cigarettes?
02:35Yes.
02:36Child!
02:37Is this woman vexing you?
02:39Now see here woman, I...
02:41Hi.
02:42Hi.
02:42I like your medal.
02:43Oh, it's plus five.
02:45Fantasy check!
02:53Someone take me to the hospital, please!
02:58The Earl of Raven's Loft is dead!
03:01Really?
03:01Bye!
03:02Taking...
03:03Uh...
03:04No?
03:04No?
03:04No!
03:04No!
03:05It's just like...
03:05No!
