Kate and Dave: Desperate and Dateless

Kate and Dave met for the first time when the girls had to help him deliver a calf on their way to a Bachelor and Spinster Ball. When Kate was complaining to the girls how she thinks their going to the party is pointless, Jodi told her that Kate might just meet the man of her dreams.

The first thing Kate heard Dave say was:

(Whistling) For one night only, Dave..and the Brewerettes!

and the first thing he heard her say was:

Well, you need to roll her to her side and stabilize her so you could get a firm grip on the calf and then turn the foot.

Dave: Hello vet.
Kate: Kate Manfredi. BSC Agricultural Science.
Dave: Dave Brewer. Sagittarius.

And when they were about to shake hands, Kate withdrew when Dave revealed his gloved hand that he used for the delivery. WAHAHAHA! How romantic!

Dave and the girls discovered that Kate keeps gum boots, garbage bags, first aid kit, scissors and a raincoat in the trunk of her car, and she can even rig up a stretcher. Hm, reminds me of the tote I carry around all day. Kate and Dave discovered a common interest in Adam Ant, the King of the New Frontier album and the New Romantic movement.

The girls had to chase down (or rather walk and hitch down) a hitchhiker who ran off with Kate's car, a graduation gift from her Dad. The guys were thrown out of a bar when Alex and Kane fought with a gang who wanted to take over the pool table. Jodi revealed that Kate slept with her Biology student-teacher, Mr. Porton. The girls then chanced upon the guys on a field on the side of the road where the Ryans' car broke down.

Kate: So, did you get into any fights?
Dave: Oh, no. I make it a point never to come between two men and a pool cue.
Kate: You're funny!

At the end of the day, they just decided to have their own party right then and there. While Nick and Tess are talking and Stevie and Jodie dance with Alex, Kate surreptitiously walked to Dave and chatted with him whilst sitting atop the hood of the car.

Kate: So then Brandon reckoned all we had to do was sit there and the bees will just come buzzing.
Dave: Well, he's got it all wrong! What you need to do is get the honey and pour it all over your naked body. Uh, forget about it.
(uncomfortable silence as Kate's brain tries to process this information)
Kate: So you reckon there's anything else I need to know about difficult births?
Dave: You what?
Kate: The cow this morning. Anything else I need to know, the next time?
Dave: Sometimes it's better not to know.

What a way to start a tragic story.
