The date

First impressions

Act 1: Star Dust slides onto a wobbly stool and asks whether Quiz Pro Quo broke Chud's heart again. He grins back that he never loses to a team named after a Latin pun, and they trade quick jabs about the scoreboard.

The challenge

Act 2: A pigeon crashes through the back door and swoops over the answer sheets. Star Dust grabs a tea towel and warns Chud that this feathered menace wants the grand prize, while Chud steps toward the bird and sets out to catch it first.

The decision

Act 3: The pigeon is tangled in the tea towel and the quiz sheets. Star Dust agrees they should go again, but says she's heading home alone tonight. She brushes a feather off her shoulder and thanks Chud for a great night, leaving them friends.

The twist

The pigeon turns out to belong to Quiz Pro Quo, and it has been secretly marking their answers all night.

The finale

Star Dust turns Chud down for romance, but they part as friends and both want another date. She heads home alone while Chud is left still holding the tea towel.

Ending: Just friends

Who gets rejected? Chud the crusher

The box score

Awkwardness36-4
How this was scored

Just friends: warm enough (chemistry 67), but trust 52 never got there, and Star's dealbreaker tripped. Endings read where the numbers finished, not how far they moved. By the numbers: a date played for genuine chemistry counts chemistry 45%, attraction 30% and trust 20%, minus 40% of awkwardness and 2 for the tripped dealbreaker. This one came out +11.4 against an ordinary date: friends needs +11.0, a second date +16.0.
