Chapter 5 Summary

Undeterred by his failure at the group dinner date, Don brings his questionnaire to a singles cocktail party. He is approached by a French woman, Fabienne, who asks him directly if she can buy him a drink elsewhere and announces that she would like to have sex. Don finds her very attractive, but he’s solely focused on the results of the questionnaire. Don tells her that someone suitable may show up if she waits longer; he’s disappointed when she fails to qualify as a suitable partner according to his questionnaire.

 

Next, Don tries speed-dating. He eliminates all of the women quickly and efficiently using his questionnaire. He is puzzled that none of the women want to talk to him once he tells them that they have been eliminated.

 

When Don posts the questionnaire on the internet, he receives 279 responses, bringing his total to 304. Gene helps him to sort through them, insisting that Don is missing some good potential mates because he is unwilling to compromise on some of his requirements. Gene offers to look through all of the questionnaires and give Don the results. Don agrees to ask the women that Gene identifies as candidates out for dinner.
