Love & Romance, Hollywood Style [Period 4, Class 4]

Drake was grinning as he started the class today. He'd had a date with a goddess last night, after all, so he had reason to be in a good mood. "Last week was love and death," he said, "so how about something a little more lighthearted this week? Love conquers all. You know the story. Boy meets girl, boy kidnaps girl, boy and girl obviously have the major hots for each other but instead act like they hate each other, boy loses girl, boy finds girl, girl loses boy, girl finds boy, boy loses girl, and the two angels trying to bring them together resort to bloodshed and violence to make them live happily ever after." Drake paused. "Okay, maybe I exaggerate the lightheartedness."

He snapped his fingers and started some clips playing on the projector. "In meta for A Life Less Ordinary, two angels are ordered to bring together Robert Lewis and Celine Naville. If they fail, they'll be banished back to Earth, because all the divorces and unhappy marriages are ruining their record of uniting couples in eternal bliss, and god is a bitch of a boss.

"So, Robert is a janitor and a hopeless dreamer," Drake went on. "Celine is a spoiled rich girl. Robert works as a janitor for Celine's father, and when he's fired and replaced by a machine, he flips out and demands his job back from Celine's father at gunpoint. He ends up taking Celine hostage -- by her doing, because she's bored and wants attention. Celine tries to guide Robert in the art of kidnapping while they bicker and fight and have an obligatory musical number. The two angels pursue them, disguised as bounty hunters, and come up with the brilliant plan of putting Robert and Celine in constant jeopardy to try to get them to fall in love.

"In the end," Drake concluded, "Robert and Celine do fall in love, and the angels' jobs are saved, though a minor miracle is needed to get everyone through it alive. So what do you think? Can love conquer all? Do you think Robert and Celine would've fallen in love without the divine influence? Do the angels pushing them together make their love any less real?"
