TABLE for THREE
The Story:
Scott Teller (Brandon Routh) has just proposed. His would-be fiancée has just thrown up off a rooftop and broken up with him. His roommate has just left for Germany. Now heartbroken (we know this because he’s grown a beard) and living in an empty apartment, Scott places an ad in the paper for someone to share his moroseness and, more importantly, the rent. Enter Ryan (Jesse Bradford) and Mary (Sophia Bush), a Stepford couple who offer to look out for Scott and make sure he doesn’t rush into anything serious too soon. They’re always chipper, fix gourmet brunches, and make sure Scott doesn‘t drunk-dial his ex. But they also roleplay, eavesdrop on Scott’s phone conversations, and take photos of him while he’s sleeping. They would make good serial killers. Their antics from interrupting a private dress rehearsal of A Midsummer Night’s Dream to throwing the world’s worst birthday bash--make it impossible for Scott’s romance with new girl Leslie (Jennifer Morrison),who also has a habit of rushing things with new beaus, to bloom. And that’s just their plan. Scott believes that Ryan and Mary are intentionally sabotaging his chances with her because they desperately need him in their life to hold their dysfunctional relationship together.
