"Lydia, I need your help."
"Yes?"
"I'm booked for the whole night, but I need you to deliver a package at the address I texted you. The package is in the storage room."
"..."
"Lydia?"
"I'm checking my phone!"
"Hurry up, please."
"Yeah, I got the address."
"Okay, good. Can you do that for me?"
"What's in the package? I mean- What's in the box!"
"That's not what's important. Can you deliver it? It's for this girl and I really need to make her smile, I'll explain it to you another time."
"Yes, I'll do it."
"Thank you so much."
"You owe me one."
"I owe you one."
"You like this girl, don't you?"
"Pffft, me? Nooo... If anything, she's falling for me."
"Finn, you're doing that weird thing with your voice again. I'm the matchmaker, I get it."
"Listen closely."
"Yes?"
"You're going to ring the doorbell, place the package on the front door then go in her backyard. There, I put some fairy lights all over the bushes. You're going to plug the lights and leave quickly, got it?"
"Yes."
"Okay, we can't lose any more time."
"Why fairy lights?"
"They spell out something."
"And what is that?"
"Lydia, I'm not trying to be rude but, I'll answer all your questions later. You have to hurry now!"
"If I'm gonna be the matchmaker I should at least know what is going on between you two."
"Lydia--"
"I need to at least--"
"Lydia, now I'm trying to be rude! Go!"
