He finds himself working on an account at his firm that has him frustrated. On a recommendation from a friend, and for a needed break, he goes to Jen’s Caffe for coffee, where, of course, he encounters Reese. Charlie’s voice alone is an attraction for Reese, but Reese believes he has nothing to offer anyone and still can’t see himself in a relationship. In a test to see if they can even be friends, Charlie and Reese go on a ‘silent date’, which, it turns out, is really hard for Charlie. He wants to get to know Reese better, but Reese is not willing to share his life. Charlie might be somewhat geeky and persistent with Reese, but he holds some surprises for Reese, too.
