1 man, 1 woman
Two seniors, Rose and Charlie, meet on a blind date in a cafe. It’s a good thing she brought a rose and he brought a horse, otherwise, they may still be looking for the person who replied to their personal ad. What happens next is a witty exchange and the realization that they’re both looking for the same thing — just not each other. If only Rose had known “the code” earlier!
