So we go to Massachusetts and I turn up first pretending to be her friend Charlie from Austin. Which is a really stupid idea, because I can't do an Austin accent to save my life.

MINDY, ARRIVING AT HER FOLKS Is he already here? What do you think about him?

MADONNA SPECTACLE Meanwhile, her mom has been so convinced by my straight-dude charms, combined with a glass or two too much, she's decided to come on to me by locking the both of us in a broom closet.

MINDY, ARRIVING AT HER FOLKS Dad – where's mom and Maddy – I mean, Charlie?

MADONNA SPECTACLE I escape in the nick of time, Mindy's dad catches her calling me "Maddy", and the cat's finally out of the bag. Mindy's mom is ticked off, but we put her to bed. Mindy's dad really likes me. That night, in the bedroom, Madonna Spectacle does a private rendition of "Crazy For You", only for Mindy, the most special person in my whole entire life.
