Oh! Uh. [ How to explain his predicament? Damn Athena, she really got in his head with her teasing! That teenage menace... ]

So there's somebody-- one of my students' parents, from back home-- I thought I really didn't like him, because he was handsome, but totally mean, like a Terminator-- the Robert Patrick Terminator, not the Arnold one--

[ JEFF. FOCUS. ]

But it turns out I might've totally misjudged him? Y'know, bad first impressions, judging a tailored book by its fancy cover... Anyway. We kind of had a decent conversation? Then I thought we were flirting, but then he got weird on me, so now I don't know-- He called me 'Mr. Avocado'?

[ None of this makes any sense, does it. He's not good at relaying, uh, these kinds of feelings. ]

Like... he abruptly changed the subject. And then gave me a nickname based on my love of avocados.

[ WHY. WHY DID HE CALL JEFF THAT? ]

It was all through text, so it's hard to say what his tone was, y'know?

I mean... It might be? I don't really know him that well.

Honestly, I barely know him at all! It makes him really hard to get a read on! Is he the jerk I thought he was, or the sweet guy he seems to be, or--

[ SIGH. One of those possibilities, he's totally into. The other? Not so much. It's those little moments of utter dorkiness, and those moments when Waltz showed the depth of his compassion, that Jeff started to think: 'shit, maybe this guy IS my type.' ]

I think he finds me attractive, buuuuut he also called me an idiot in the same breath. So even if there was something there...

[ Waltz probably wouldn't want anything more than a fun roll in the hay. Like Jeff's fucking material, not dating material. ]

[ SIGH. A defeated admission: ] I think I do.

[ Pause pause pause. ]

You think so?

[ Stop sounding so hopeful, Calhoun, you sap! ]

Yeah...

Like when he told me I should've become a stripper instead of a teacher.

[ Pause. He mulls over that insult again. ]

Okay, now I feel better about my chances with him.

Oh... Don't ask me that. I could come up with a thousand different answers...

But I see your point! [ Pause. ] Thanks. For talking me through this.
