INT. BEDROOM -- NIGHT

Charlie is sitting at the computer looking at various windows of the internet. An animated pop-up appears in neon colors reading “Unlucky in love? Is it because you’re too nerdy to function? How about extremely shy? Or because you have a restraining order against you? Fear not! Our Lesbian love guru is the perfect mentor for you! The first session is free!” Charlie clicks on the ad and we cut.

CHARLIE

I can’t approach girls, no matter how hard I try, it never works out right.

GURU

Just act normally, no facade, no crazyness, just talk to them as yourself?
