Finally, all the stars aligned as Amelia Dimoldenberg and Andrew Garfield finally went on a (chicken shop) date after two years of a “will they, won’t they†speculation. It seems like only yesterday we were blushing over their Golden Globes interview, wondering when the news would break that they’re dating. Alas, that did not happen, and for about a year and a half, we were in a romance drought until the two reunited on Dimoldenberg’s home turf of a chicken restaurant on October 18. Plus, the two are both reportedly single. Is this the date we’ve all been waiting for? Below, a reminder of everything from Amelia Dimoldenberg and Andrew Garfield’s talking stage through their first date.

Coming in hot, Dimoldenberg shot her shot with Garfield, telling him she’s been “trying to get a date with†him on the show for a while. He fangirled over as he shared he didn’t get the invite. Garfield took a trip to Giggle City, population: him, as he could not stop laughing throughout the entire interview. They checked each other out as Garfield complimented her “leathery†dress, only creating more yearning in between the months of awards season.

This is true textbook romance. Honestly, if your face isn’t red after watching this video, you do not have the soul of a lover. The interaction comes in hot: Garfield was already blushing through his bronzer as Dimoldenberg asked him to “be normal†before saying, “We must stop meeting like this.†Garfield let out a Freudian slip, “I only ever want to see you,†before attempting to backtrack. “That’s not the end of the sentence,†he tried to explain while flirtatiously grabbing her arm, trying to stop the lovers quarrel. Garfield dug deeper into the hole, exclaiming in the most unbelievable manner, “I don’t think we should explore this,†as they talk about compatibility. Dimoldenberg let Garfield know that she was ready to explore a relationship further, most likely talking about setting up a Chicken Shop interview, but Garfield must’ve taken her literally as he looked afraid of falling in love again. I guess enough time has passed for the two to reunite now!

Finally, the big day comes. During their first date, these two flirty fools smirk so much that there just might be an international smirking shortage — someone check the supply! They gab about dating, how forward Dimoldenberg can be when asking people out, and whether Garfield would be hotter if he had an Oscar. Plus, we get some BTS gossip that Garfield asked for Dimoldenberg’s number at a party already. If you’re not fanning yourself just reading that, please start. Then they plan their second date. “I feel like this should just be a practice round,†Garfield says. “I feel like we should do it again, actually. And better.†Okay, guys, go for it. Just make sure there are still cameras.
