I think I want to go to the Creekside Cinemas. They have awesome big luxury recliners there, and that sounds so nice. Drinks, recliners, and race cars! San Marcos is always such a chill choice, I just love it there. Maybe I'll move there some day.

Sounds about right. Overpriced already, and the candy will be like twelve bucks a box or so!
assistant
I hear that. Ooooh, wait a minute, it looks like they don't have any available seats for the time you want, which is a 9:45 by the way.

Of course they don't, but if I didn't want to see it they would have the whole theater available! What about A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood?

Sounds like a plan to me! So is there a difference in price, and what kind of seating do they have open?

Your total stays the same at $23.18, and the seating is pretty wide open still,

Awesome. That sounds like a relaxing and pleasant night out. Nice to have a little change every now and then from all night dancing and drinking and partying. Spending some quality time with my man sounds fantastic!
assistant
It should be a welcome change for both of you, especially with your busy lives and hectic work schedules!

Okay, the Mister Rogers movie late show, please.

Done and done. Where would y'all like to sit in the theater?
user
Well, I guess it kind of depends on the layout. I want to sit near an aisle, so we can get out easily if we need to, but I don't want to have to keep moving for other people. So nearer the aisle than the center of the theater, and kind of mid to forward of room to the screen. Unless it's a room with balcony seating. Then I want to be much further back. Not all the way at the back of the theater, but almost, and still near the aisle. But leave at least like two seats between us and the aisle if you are able to, please.

Got it. The seating is pretty open as of yet, so you will almost have your pick of the room. It does appear to have balcony seating as well. I am looking at putting y'all 4 rows from the back of the theater, and there will be two seats between y'all and the aisle. You'll be off to the right of the screen just a bit, but in a great viewing area.

That sounds perfect. Go ahead and reserve those tickets, and I am going to go call Scott and tell him what we are going to be doing tonight. Thanks for your help!
assistant
You're very welcome. I hope you both have a wonderful evening and that the movie is a winner.
