a blind date unravels
Eleanor needs to have sex – at least that’s what her sister thinks. Eleanor has finally agreed to a blind-date, although the last thing she was expecting was a Frenchman who doesn’t speak English. Between awkward introductions and misunderstandings, Eleanor’s date seems to be going rather well, until her sister arrives in the arms of Jeremy – the real blind-date. What should have been an exciting evening for Eleanor turns into a total disaster. Still, this may turn out to be the best blind-date Eleanor’s had. Who wants to remember a number like that?
