Episode 16: A kitchen romance

Michal: Oh Bronka! I'm so miserable! Alice doesn't want to go out with me.
Helen: Oh sorry, Michal. Am I interrupting something here?
Michal: No, no, I'm just pouring my heart out to Bronka.
Helen: Oh yeah, I found out that Alice gave you a knock-back but it's not the end of the world. There are plenty more fish in the sea you know.
Michal: Fish? I don't want a fish, I want a date!
Helen: Well, there's someone right in front of you!
Michal: You're always too busy studying. You wouldn't go out with a guy like me.
Helen: Oh wouldn't I? Why don't you ask first!
Michal: Would you?
Helen: I'd love to!

Vocabulary :

There are plenty more fish in the sea: (idiom): There are other people available (in this episode, Helen suggest there are other girlfriends apart from Alice for Michal).
