The premise

Here’s the bit.

Darrell interrupts Yvonne before a movie, asks about her boyfriend and keeps looking for an opening to get her number. Her attempts to decline only prompt more compliments about her name and ponytail. When she asks to watch the previews alone, he finally backs away while continuing his one-sided farewell.
