The One Thing From 2017 I Can’t Let Go of is Dev’s “Search” for Sara in ‘Master of None’ Season 2

I’m not one to hold grudges but there are certain things I can’t get over. Or should I say, that I refuse to get over. The Bellas deserved an “L” (badly) against Das Sound Machine in Pitch Perfect 2, how incredible Cars 3 is (Yes, I’m still on that), and Dev’s (Aziz Ansari) “search” for Sara in Season 2 of Master of None. Lemme repaint the picture, Season 2 of Master of None dropped back in May 2017. In Episode 1 (“The Thief”), Dev is in Modena, Italy doing real chef shit. Ya boy cooking. He cooking. Dev decides to treat himself to a birthday lunch at this Bruce Wayne, entry-by-reservation-only type restaurant, Hosteria Giusti. He meets Sara (Clare-Hope Ashitey) who mistakingly booked her reservation for the following month. Dev invites her to eat with him ’cause it’s the nice thing to do, and what ensues is 100% uncut cute shit. They engage in slightly awkward conversations getting to know one another, talking about the social norms of conversation. They see they have a similar type of humor and continue to hang out, eating ice cream and riding bikes together. It’s a buffet of cute shit and I came back for fourths. Once it’s time to depart, Sara tells Dev she and some friends rented a house in Puglia for the weekend. She gives him her number and tells him to come through. Dev later gets his phone stolen and gives a valiant effort trying to catch the thief, but comes up short. Y’all know how the rest plays out. “Have you learned nothing from BBC’s Sherlock?” I’m watching this…
