He’s gorgeous and looks stunning without a shirt. Lucas soon demonstrates that the positive traits he’s cultivated via Instagram are a mere hint of his true perfection. They certainly won’t develop any kind of relationship beyond friendship because he’s heading back to Spain in six weeks and she’s… well, she’s got no real reason but whatever.
She’ll sleep in the bed, he’ll sleep on the sofa. She blurts and verbally stumbles in ways that I imagine are meant to make her adorable and relatable, but since she mentally bashes herself for her foot-in-mouth blunders, proves that she’s too self aware to be so silly.Īnyway, after some ‘No, you take it’ back and forth-ing between Lucas and Rosie over who should remain in the studio, they decide to share it. (Okay for teen girls and their heartthrobs but kind of creepy for an adult woman.) When she finally encounters the guy in person, she becomes the equivalent of a thirteen year old boy trying to ask the prom queen for a date. It may be because Rosie has been stalking Lucas via Instagram for months and has a massive crush on him.
Yet Rosie feels shame and guilt and the need to hide her situation from a guy she’s never met. Lina is her best friend, she has a spare key, and her apartment is uninhabitable. Even more confusing is why she feels the need to lie about her reason for being there when Lucas sees all of her belongings and the perishable food items she’s trying to salvage. She falls all over herself in apology for making a mistake anyone would in such a situation, as if she were the biggest buffoon on the planet. When Lucas, Lina’s sexy Spanish cousin, shows up with his own key, Rosie loses the ability to act like a rational human being. And when you learn that instead of an intruder, the person breaking in is, in fact, your best friend’s relative with a legitimate reason to be there, you’d apologize for the mistake, but you’d hardly beat yourself up for assuming the worst.Īnd yet this is exactly our introduction to Rosie Graham, who has escaped to her honeymooning best friend Lina’s empty studio apartment after her own apartment suffers a ceiling cave-in. Your emotions would certainly contain fear and outrage and some measure of hostility. What would you do? I would imagine that, like me, your first instinct would be to grab your phone and key up 9-1-1.
You aren’t expecting anyone, so you fear this may be an intruder up to no good. Imagine if you were alone in your best friend’s NYC apartment and you heard someone trying to come in through the locked door.
