Meat Cute
Imogen Markwell-Tweed, Ray Jericho
There's a joke there, but he's just too tired to find it.
Danny's 25, listless, bored, and vegetarian. He hates his job at the market, but he has no other plan and no real desire to find a plan, so, he'll just keep shaving turkey and making pasta salads.
Callum, on the other hand, is made almost exclusively out of plans. He has three planners, a color coordinated Google calendar, and a three, five, and ten year plan -- that are all on track, by the way.
When Callum is fired unexpectedly from his high corporate job, he has no choice but to return to his hometown for the holidays. Tasked with making the Thanksgiving meal, and having never made anything more complicated than a reservation, Callum has a hell of a time grocery shopping -- not made easier by the surly twenty-something that refuses to answer his questions on how to stuff a turkey.
When Danny's parents mistake Callum for his boyfriend, Danny and Callum are faced with an option: clear up the humiliating misconception, or let it play out so that they both look a little less pathetic for the holidays.
Callum has handled board meetings, screaming CEOs and a rigorous 50 hour work week on top of his Master's program. Danny has handled belligerent customers, PETA activists, and an underpaid, overbearing manager. Neither of them are prepared for each other.
