While I was doing that, Rex meets Jean-Paul for dinner...

"Bon soir, Rex." "Oh, hi. Is that a new top? I have one just like it."

"Merci, you look très bien as well. I love your shirt, you should wear it more often."

So Jean-Paul tells Rex he'd like to take him out to dinner, to a new Japanese/Chinese kinda place.

They order sushi and japanese beers.

(I got the paintings and endtables and lamps etc. at BNJ x LVR.)

So they're talking about women's shoes, like they do, and Rex asks if his sister, Simone, ever wears heels at all.

Jean-Paul says he has no idea what she wears on her feet. But he would like to discuss hiring Rex to redecorate a loft he wants to buy. He's an architect and he loves all the light this loft gets plus all the space so he can have an office in his apartment, what does Rex think?

You French are so romantic. You bring Rex to this lovely restaurant that clearly has the only women's room within a hundred miles and you ask Rex to work for you? Rex tells him that he'll certainly decorate his loft and since he had the bad taste to talk about it on their date, Rex isn't going to feel bad charging him markup.Bone jewer.

He makes it up to him and tells him that they're going to jump in a cab and go somewhere else. Rex still hasn't found out anything about Simone yet.

So they go to a bar and Rex asks, "So, does your sister, Simone, wear a digital watch?"

Jean-Paul wants to know why all the questions about Simone, is Rex interested in her?
"No, my friend Moo is, she wanted me to ask you about her." "Qu'est-ce que c'est Moo? I do not understand. A cow?"
"Mon Dieu! I love this song!" He grabs Rex's hand and pulls him on the dance floor so they can dance to Cher's "Take Me Home."
Rex cannot believe his eyes. They will just let anyone in these straight bars. Next time they'll go to boy bar when they want to dance.
Jean-Paul has to leave since he's closing on the loft tomorrow morning. He'd invite Rex home but he's living with all his relatives right now...
Don't get all new-agey on me now.

 

All of that and Rex still didn't find out a thing about Simone.
