Married at first sight, Season 1, Behind the Scenes Part 3
When Andrew finally called two days later, Phil's heart clenched in his chest. So much depended on this man's answer. May and Coulson had searched and searched for another expert, but nobody was good enough or free at that time. In short - Garner had to agree, there was no alternative.
"Coulson, this is Andrew Garner. I actually just wanted to inform you that I will work with you, if the offer still stands", a polite voice said.
Phil exhaled loudly.
"Believe me, it very much stands", he began. "We need you here and I am looking forward working with you. I will e-mail you all the important information. About everything basically. From your dental insurance to the dates we have planned for the couples. There will also be the material about the candidates, and I warn you, it will be quite a bit. However, you will only meet the other experts on the first day we start filming, when the couples will be chosen. Of course we won't show the whole process, we will use the most entertaining bits of the discussions."
"Alright, sounds fine to me", the other man answered, "I will let you know if I have any more questions."
"Okay", the director replied, "and Mr Garner, you are always welcome to give suggestions."
Just when he had hung up, his PA entered the office. When she saw his facial expression she raised an eyebrow. He simply got up from his chair and went over to her to wrap her into a tight hug. After a moment of confusion, she reciprocated, closing her arms behind his back.
"May, I think I will survive this season after all", he whispered into her hair, making her huff good naturedly.
She pulled back a little back.
"Phil, we always survive. As long as Pierce is our biggest problem, everything will be fine. Now, don't we have work to do?"
He laughed and let her go, sitting down again to send the files out to all of the three experts.
"What do you think of the other two?", Phil asked May after a while, "I forgot to ask you in all the stress."
"Maximoff is smart, very young, a bit insecure and can come across a bit weirdly at first", the woman responded, " Grey is experienced, attractive and influential and God she knows it. But she is an expert, there is no doubt in that. Those three together are going to be interesting."
"Well, let's hope they keep it interesting and don't let it become catastrophic", her boss responded.
When he called Pierce to tell the producer that another psychologist had been found, the man only replied that he had expected it anyway. He really was a dick, never acknowledging the effort others put into their work. Still, Phil would keep his job and that was enough for now.
I know this is super short but content-wise it made sense to cut here. I hope the next chapter will be up sooner than is one.
Up next: The first meeting between the experts and the first decisions about the couples, therefore this will be Episode 1
