(Note: This is a continuation of A Date With Nate)

“Good idea!” Nate agrees. “You know, I always thought you to be a patron of the arts, like myself, and I always respected that about you.”

Deep down, you know Nate doesn’t like plays.

“I’m so glad you asked me out on this date,” Nate continues as the two of you walk into the theatre. “Or was it me that asked you? Ah, I never know.”

You refrain from telling him that he was the one that asked you out.

Nate continues. “But this play is astonishing, it is undeniably the greatest play that has ever existed in the history of theatre.”

You refrain from facepalming.

“And you’re going to love it,” Nate tells you. “Oh, take your seat, take your seat. You want some Cheez Doodles?”

Just then, the actors come onto the stage.

“Oh, it’s starting!” Nate exclaims. You both turn to the stage.

You are surprised to see that the actors are none other than Joe Moraliste and his new girlfriend, Palette. Joe is dressed in a white, unbuttoned shirt, and Palette’s rainbow hair is covered by a blonde wig.

“Thanks for taking me to this park, babe!” Palette’s character says.

“Thanks for paying for dinner,” Joe’s character says in a faux masculine voice.

“Oh, no problem,” Palette’s character says.

Joe’s character continues. “You’re welcome. Will you marry me?”

Palette’s character grabs Joe’s character’s hands. “Oh, of course! Who wouldn’t wanna get married on the first date!”

“Good thing I’m ordained,” Joe’s character says.

“Me too!” Palette’s character adds.

The two characters say at the same time, “I now pronounce us man and wife!”

You’re cringing this entire time. What is this play?

Beside you, Nate is sobbing emotionally. He stands up and applauds Joe and Palette. You stare at him, dumbfounded.

“Oh my God, it’s so unique!” He exclaims. “Every time you watch it, it’s something different. It’s something new, magical, unexplainably good!”

He wipes his eyes. “I think I need a minute, because I become so overcome at the core message of it, the beauty of the love between two dissonant souls, and just expressing themselves in, in dance and love. Oh, I just need a minute.”

You know Nate is obviously just trying to impress you.

You both leave the theatre. Nate then sees the poster for “The Double Vision.”

“Oh, the other play,” he says. “Do you... do you want to see it? It plays right after this one. I mean, there’s still time. Or we could keep moving on in the date, it’s really whatever you want. What do you think? The choice is yours.”
