If your hot TF seems suspiciously more flirtatious than usual, offer her/him a swig of Rubinov from your Poland Springs bottle. This is your last chance. Ask them when you could meet to talk about your paper; when they answer, explain that you will unfortunately be bedridden at that time. Then just wink. Then maybe take a shot and try winking...
