Episode #0709

[It's up to the first poster to come up with a set up, and then each following post will either complete it or fill in the blank(s). And, as always, whoever posts the set up is certainly allowed to post their own completion/fill in as a follow up.]

Set-up:
Barn: (thinking) "So... I should probably play it cool, don't want to risk rejection... but what the hell, if this craps out, another identical Josette is bound to come along sooner or later!"
RD: "Should I leave you alone while you ________?"

"..silently talk to yourself, Mr Collins?"
