A week later he cutely stops by her work to get her number. He is a great date - he doesn't try to get her to invite him in.

He takes Rachel bowling after dinner in a cute way. On Valentine's Day, Rachel and Andrew end up sharing a table at an Italian restaurant and end up going on a date. She hasn't dated or had sex in 16 months because the last man she had a relationship with, Eric, was still in love with his ex-wife and she had control over him and his daughter's life.
