Your Trish Your Trish Is On His List

On a practically empty stage with just a piano, a man and a woman in formalwear, looking like they're understudying for the role of Jesse and Trish, sing two notes before being interrupted by Trish's confessional: "I think one of the most powerful aphrodisiacs you can have is wanting to kiss somebody." I thought one of the most powerful aphrodisiacs you could have was Spanish Fly. That's what the song said, anyway. Not the song in the opera. I don't understand that song. It's in the language of Foreignia, so I never thought to learn it. The opera couple kisses on stage, and the song ends to thunderous applause from Jesse and Trish. If you rewind it and play it back really slowly, you'll notice that the four hands clapping actually spell out the words in Morse Code: "A Master's at Juilliard, and for what?"

The second date box is here! The second date box is here! It's a rough-hewn old wicker thing decorated with pine cones. Jesse-XX will do the honors: "Mandy, Amber, Anne-Catherine, Suzie, Jenny, Kristy, Jean Marie, and Jess. Let's leave the mansion behind and experience the great outdoors." The Spy -- who is Jenny -- recounts her stock speech to tell us how excited she is to talk to Jesse about some "very important things." Hey, we're ready when you are, Jeffersonian Vice-President Aaron Blur.

Back at a night at the opera, the curtain rises on the post-opera stage (yeah, stupid performers! Get outta here. Who needs you?) to reveal a table set for a faaaaaanchy dinner. Rose petals fall from the sky. Jesse asks Trish to join him at dinner, confessionalizing that it's like "a fairy tale" because that's what you say at this point in the...oh, sorry. No SpongeBob for him either. Although considering the physical description "absorbent and yellow and porous is he," Jesse might actually be the SpongeBob plush toy. No wonder they keep referring to him as "a prize."

Jesse wastes no time: "Do you ever see yourself having a big family?" Trish volleys back that she thinks about not ever having children, adding, "I don't know that I'd be popping out four kids." An utter turnaround is suddenly in progress, Jesse saying he didn't think he was ready to have kids at this point anyway, and we kick it to a confessional in which Jesse tells us, "She talked about kids and she talked about family, and she's talked about things that are very, very important to her." Like how much she doesn't want kids and hates all families. Back at the house, Tara notes, "I don't think that Jesse needs to waste any more time getting to know Trish." And, at the end of the date, Trish and Jesse make with the nookie as Trish tells us, "In my dating experience -- and my god, I've had a lot of it -- this one takes the cake." Hooker.
