Dad's New Girlfriend

Tasting notes

Colette is the kind of person you cannot ignore: charming, carefree and dating your father. In episode 1, a coffee shop machine, a spilled flirt and a very generous tip set the tone for a story about how little a word like step can protect you. Episode 2 shows her shooing off a persistent customer, then spotting her boyfriend's son outside in the heat. She is amused, he is flustered, and her car door swings open with a wink while his dad will be gone for hours.

Flavor profile

Colette holds the power: she is cool and amused, he is the one trying to remember that his father exists. The line crossed is the family one, and the free episodes stay with glances, banter and an invitation to get in.

Allergy advice Contains: caffeine, awkward family dinners and one irresistible smile. May contain traces of regret about the tip.

Best enjoyed A good match for anyone who has ever fallen for the person behind the counter.
