An Opportunity Video (MV)

Now just where have you been?
You left us short-handed
During the lunch rush!
I know, I know, I'm sorry. I just
You just what?
Ladies, ladies, can't we
All just...get along?
You're next
Zip it
Gertrude!
Cut the girl some slack
We did just fine
Why don't you come help me
Look over the finances for the month?
I'll deal with you two later
I swear that man is a saint
How in the world could such
A nice man be married to that?
Because he loves her
Sure, they have completely
Different temperaments, but that
Doesn't mean they
Shouldn't be together
For his sake, I hope he outlives her
Oh, stop it
Speaking of which, are
You gonna spill the goods?
What goods?
You know well what
Goods I'm talking about
Jamie Jackson?
AKA Mr. Gorgeous?
What about him?
You two just escaped from
This diner together
Did you tell him all about
Your music career?
What about
No, Dahlia
I never brought it up
I just took him out the back
Door and apologized for
Being an absolute clutz
You were gone an awfully long time
I mean, he was nice
We made small talk and
Then I left the park
That was it
Park?
What park?
You didn't say anything about a park
Don't you have some magazines
To read while you
Neglect the customers?
Clarice, this is important!
What park did you go to?
Central Park!
We went to Central Park
He offered to meet me there
Later but I turned him down
You did what?!
You heard me
I have more important
Things to do tonight
What things could possibly be
More important than meeting
Jamie Jackson at Central Park?
Look, Clarice
When a super hot celebrity
Music producer asks you to
Meet him at Central Park
You meet him at Central Park
Yeah, and why should I?
Isn't it obvious?
What? Look, Dahlia, I
Don't have time for this
Clarice, just please listen
To me this one time
This could be your chance
You could finally get out of
This diner and make
Something of yourself
Where are you going with this?
When Jamie asked to meet
You tonight, did it seem
Like he was asking you on a date?
I don't think so?
I mean...it's not impossible, I guess
But why would he ask me on a date?
Nevermind that
What I'm trying to say is if
He asked you on a date...maybe
You should go along with it
You mean...I should pretend
Like I'm interested in him?
Of course, you're the one girl
On this planet that has zero interest
In one of the most charming
Guys in the universe
Dahlia, I couldn't possibly do that
That's so incredibly slimy and desperate
Then don't think of it as pretending
Think of it as being there for him
While he struggles to find his next project
And as he's at the end of his rope; poof
There you are, a young
Attractive, talented singer
You'll save the day
I don't know
It still doesn't feel right
What if he's not even
Interested in me to begin with?
Then make him interested
So, then what happens after
I tell him I'm a singer?
Am I just supposed to pretend
To be in love with him
For the rest of my life?
Of course, not
Just dump him when the release
Of your third album goes platinum
Or you could always just marry him
Dahlia!
Regardless
This could work, Clarice
But it won't if you sit here
And don't get that date back
Did he give you his number or anything?
No. He just told me to meet him
At seven in Central Park
If I changed my mind
Well, there you go
You can go home, get all dolled
Up and win that man's heart
I don't know
It just seems so...manipulative
For once, Clarice, put yourself first
This is an opportunity
You can't pass up
What's this I'm hearing about, Clarice?
An opportunity?
Clarice got asked out on a
Date with this amazing guy!
Technically he didn't ask me
Oh, hush! He's in a position where
He could totally
Launch her singing career!
But Dahlia, I can't even go
I have to work tonight, isn't
That right, Mr. Peters?
Actually, I think you
Could use a night off
You're way too hard on yourself
You should go out and do
Whatever it is you
Youngsters do nowadays
Ha! That's it! You're going!
