Hattie is a children’s author who is perfectly content with her single life, but her friends have other plans. After being gifted a subscription to a dating app for her birthday, she is thrown into a world of comical mismatches that only reinforce her belief that she is better off on her own. Her resolve seems stronger than ever.
That certainty is challenged when she meets Henry, a widower with a unique perspective on modern romance. He operates by a single, guiding principle: you cannot truly know someone until you have gone on at least five dates. His structured approach to connection is the complete opposite of Hattie’s desire to be left alone, forcing her to question everything she thought she wanted. Will Henry’s thoughtful method be enough to break through her defenses, or will he just become another dating disaster?
Five Date Rule airs Sunday October 19, at 7/6c on UPtv.
