Funny Story

Daphne and Miles hardly see one another for a week, and she wonders if he is serious about showing her the city. Daphne helps her branch manager, Harvey, work on a display at work, and he notes that she has been happier recently. Daphne feels guilty thinking that her post-breakup depression has affected her job, but Harvey assures her that she can be herself with them at the library. As she’s finishing her regular Saturday storytime, Miles shows up at the library out of the blue, just in time to hear her pretend to be a mouse from the story. Miles’s thick beard makes him look like the Big Bad Wolf, and Daphne wonders if he’ll scare the children, but he jokes that it attracts older women. Miles wants to have their first “WANING BAY TOURISM” day on Sunday (100), but Daphne tells him he doesn’t have to keep his promise; he’s excited about his plan and invites Ashleigh and Daphne to Cherry Hill that night.

Miles is late to pick up Daphne, but he is getting her coffee. She’s also suddenly aware that his array of strange tattoos is sexy. He drives them out to the country to several farmstands for fresh produce.
