In Episode 1, Alex walks Jana through his cocktail creation "Tarry at the Airport Bar", featuring bourbon, Frangelico liqueur, and rhubarb bitters. They also discuss "My Maker" by Snail Mail, "Drink Up" by Grace Ives, and "Burial" by Anne Hathaway. Jana waxes poetic about airports and existential crises, Alex confesses he has Vanessa Carlton fan forum history, and they're both going to Devil Wears Prada 2 opening weekend.
