Darcy: So I just start talking?
Lizzie (off-screen): Pretty much.
Darcy: Is there a specific topic, or...?
Lizzie (off-screen): You're the one who wanted to hijack my video today.
Darcy: Fair point.
Hello everyone.
Well as you might surmise from Lizzie's last videos, she and I have begun a relationship.
It has been six days now, and it--
Lizzie (off-screen): It's been a week.
Darcy: No, it's been six days. I have it in my calendar.
Lizzie: It's been a week.
We kissed on my birthday, one week ago.
Kissing you marks the inception of our relationship.
Darcy: Yes, but that was in the evening.
It wasn't a full day.
Lizzie: Partial days count. We're rounding up, so it's been a week.
Darcy: Fine. It has a been a week now.
And it has been, without a doubt, the best week of my life.
My name is William Darcy and...
Lizzie Bennet is amazing.
"Future Talk" Written by Jay Bushman
Lizzie: You know I'm just teasing you, right? About the week versus six days.
Darcy: I know. I've been learning. Slowly.
Eat enough dinners in the Bennet household and you learn plenty about being teased.
Lizzie: That just means my dad likes you.
He did invite you to see his trains.
Darcy: Still, had I known about the casual nature of social interaction in the Bennet family,
I might have better understood what I was doing wrong.
Lizzie: You didn't do anything wrong.
Darcy: I believe you typify our first meeting as "the most awkward dance ever."
Lizzie: Oh, yeah.
That was really bad.
Darcy: Not my finest hour.
Lizzie: But you didn't wanna like me then.
You wanted to take Bing and get the hell out of dodge.
Darcy: Well, my mind changed soon enough.
Lizzie: When?
Darcy: When?
Lizzie: When did you change your mind about me?
Darcy: I haven't a clue.
I honestly don't remember when.
I don't think there was one specific moment.
I was in the middle before I knew that I'd begun.
And what about you?
When did you discover your feelings had changed?
Lizzie: Oh, I think the moment I saw the offices at Pemberley Digital.
You should know, those napping pods? Women swoon!
No, like you, it happened gradually.
Until one day, things were just...
Darcy: We should probably change the topic.
Lizzie: Good plan.
Darcy: Well, I've been thinking about the future.
Lizzie: Well there's a mood changer.
Darcy: Well, as wonderful as this week has been,
I can only telecommute for so long before my investors start to think I'm
neglecting my responsibilities for my own personal indulgences.
Lizzie: Which, technically, you are.
Darcy: Point being, I need to get back soon.
And I know you need to finish up your degree, which, according to my calendar,
will be in about the next six weeks' time.
Lizzie: Which terrifies me in no way whatsoever.
Darcy: Well, I was thinking it might terrify you less if you had a job lined up.
Say, at Pemberley Digital.
Lizzie: Oh, wow.
Darcy: I would set up an entire department around you.
You could have access to state-of-the-art equipment.
Not to mention you'd be in San Francisco with me.
What do you say?
Lizzie: No.
Darcy: Is this one of those times when you're teasing me? I cannot tell.
Lizzie: I don't want to work at Pemberley Digital, as amazing as it is.
I want to be with you.
But I don't want to be the girl who dates the boss.
Does that make sense?
Darcy: Yes.
Well what do you think you will do when you graduate?
Lizzie: Yeah. Funny thing.
When you have a video diary that gets millions of views,
it attracts the attention of several people who run digital media companies.
Darcy: Oh, so you want to work for my competitors?
Lizzie: Actually, I was thinking of becoming one of your competitors.
Since I wrote about the diaries as a start-up for my final independent study,
I have the business plan in place, and since I mentioned that project on the internet,
I've been getting messages from potential investors.
Darcy: I might know some investors, too.
Lizzie: I was also thinking that, um, if I'm going to be starting my own company, that
San Francisco might be a great place to do it.
Optimal, even.
Darcy: I think I'm warming up to this vision of the future.
Lizzie: Well, be aware that my vision of the future includes lots of trips home and visits from Lydia.
I'm really enjoying getting to know my little sister better.
Darcy: Of course.
I should apologize for anything I ever said about her.
Lizzie: You don't think she's energetic?
Darcy: No, she is, but then again, so is Gigi.
It just took a while for me to see the similarities.
To see anything other than my first impression.
Lizzie: So...
Sound like a good future?
Darcy: I think it will do nicely.
But right now, we need to worry about the present.
I made a reservation for our one week anniversary.
Lizzie: I thought you said it was six days.
Darcy: My Aunt Catherine is in town.
I thought it might be nice to get dinner with her.
I think she and your mother will get along well.
Lizzie: Ha, ha. Very funny.
But I can tell when you're teasing.
You're, you're teasing, right?
Right?
Darcy: We have to go.
