What do you think the characters' personality types (MBTI) are?

https://www.16personalities.com/personality-types (more details if you click on them)

On Weibo, some fans say ENFP for Eliza and INTJ for Henry. Or ESFP and ISTJ. I'm thinking a mix of ESFP and INTJ.

  • ENFP: Campaigner - Enthusiastic, creative and social free spirits, who can always find a reason to smile.
  • ESFP: Entertainer - Spontaneous, energetic and enthusiastic people - life is never boring around them.
  • INTJ: Architect - Imaginative and strategic thinkers, with a plan for everything.
  • ISTJ: Logistician - Practical and fact-minded individuals, whose reliability cannot be doubted.

I think Charmonique is ENTP, mostly because of the sarcasm lol Debater: Smart and curious thinkers who cannot resist an intellectual challenge

Sam Saperstein seems like an ENFP.

And Bryn might be ISTP based on her DIY projects: Virtuoso - Bold and practical experimenters, masters of all kinds of tools or ISFJ towards her friend group - Defender: Very dedicated and warm protectors, always ready to defend their loved ones.

What song do you think Eliza would've had on her playlist after Henry's "rejection" in episode 10? And if Henry were inclined to do so, what song do you think he would use to confess his feelings later on?

I think it's not really explicitly shown on the show but I like to think that both Eliza and Henry shared some overlapping musical taste or at least knowledge (like when Eliza said Biggie & 2pac squashed it and Henry said he knew they would).

I don't have a clue of Eliza's taste in music other than that video where she talks about Nsync & Backstreet Boys but I like to think she probably enjoys most music from any era as long as it's a banger. Henry most likely leans towards older stuff.

My guess for an Eliza post rejection song would be a fairly old one...maybe too old for her character but I think it fits. Maybe her character might've had an interest in retro music of the 80s.

Pat Benetar - Love is a Battlefield

For Henry's love confession song I'd go even farther back in time.

Elvis - Can't Help Falling in Love

Any guesses on Henry and Eliza's birthdays?

Eliza mentioned her birthday is a week after October 18 in episode 12 "Stick in the Mud", but that would have been a Saturday in 2014. In episode 8 "Traumatic Party Stress Disorder", she said her next birthday landed on Tuesday. Since the episodes aired later than the dates referenced, I wanna guess Eliza's birthday is on October 27, Tuesday in 2015. That would be 9 days (a little over a week) after Bethany's first born. I just saw a comment on FB saying her being a Scorpio is perfect (if we're going by the old astrology dates).

I'm not too sure about Henry's birthday. All I know it was on a Saturday in 2014 lol. I've also seen Chinese fans guessing the characters' MBTI personality types.

What could've been...

Just some random ideas of future episodes and events that I think could've occurred after episode 13.

Eliza birthday episode - Henry enlists the help of Eliza's neighbors/book club friends to hold a surprise birthday party and bake a cake for Eliza. Freddy also makes plans for her birthday. Henry calls her but it goes to voicemail. He leaves a message wishing her happy birthday and asks if she'll be free to meet later that day. As Eliza does not suspect a surprise birthday and at Freddy's insistence she doesn't call back. When she arrives home she finds the cake with a card from Henry.

Eliza comes into her own episodes - Henry needs to fly over to visit his mom and deal with an urgent family matter. While there he works remotely but struggles with virtual meetings and dealing with his family. Not wanting to disturb Henry, Eliza goes to Freddy when facing some challenges but he isn't very helpful or gives bad advice. She manages to overcome these challenges herself (sometimes by recalling previous advice from Henry) and gains more self confidence. She recalls what she told Henry about him hiding in his relationship while not being in love and realizes she is doing the same thing with Freddy. She tells Freddy that even though they've had fun they haven't made each other better people so it's best that they break up for good this time.

Rebuilding the OTP ship episode - Eliza embraces being single. After wondering how Henry is doing with his family, she decides to check in on her mom and sister and also look for a gift for her sister's baby. Henry, recalling his past overly harsh and hypercritical behavior with Eliza, changes tack which enables him to resolve his family issues. As he packs his luggage and prepares to fly back home he realizes how much he wants to see Eliza. He looks at her instagram and notices that there no longer seem to be any photos with Freddy. Henry scrolls some more and finds the old photo of the two of them with the white horse. He sets it on his phone's home screen. At that moment Eliza calls him and asks how he's doing.

Henry man's up episode - It starts with him in front of Eliza's apartment door but then flashes back to earlier that day. Henry had run into a series of increasingly ridiculous and improbable mishaps/obstacles that kept him from arriving at Eliza's apartment (the last being the elevator at Eliza's apartment being broken). With a blue rose in hand, he says, "Eliza, I love you." Her eyes begin to water as she responds, "Took you long enough, dumb dumb". Henry responds in turn, "Better than a coxcomb at least." As they spend the night together it begins to rain outside.

Private Karaoke episode - Henry plans to take Eliza to a reunion concert of her favorite boy band but it gets cancelled. Instead they go on a noraebang date. They sing various songs. Henry tries to make up for the concert cancellation by doing a song & dance cover of Eliza's favorite boy band song much to her amusement.

A musical finale episode - A series of song & dance numbers ending with Eliza & Henry in formal attire performing a waltz (under a chandelier) in the style of My Fair Lady. Afterwards they go outside on the balcony to watch the fireworks. Henry turns his gaze over towards Eliza and then hers to him. As they lock eyes for a moment, Henry says, "Eliza, thank you for not giving up on me."

Henry being the best advocate and cheerleader for Eliza

Felt like compiling some of what I thought were Henry's most encouraging and/or supportive words (plus some apologies) to Eliza throughout the series.

s01e01

Eliza: You don't even want to know where I had to stash my phone.
Henry: No phones, no wedding selfies. Today is about focusing on a beauty other than your own.

s01e03

Henry: I know how important it is for your digestion to eat standing up.
Eliza: Actually, that's just an excuse I use...because growing up nobody ever wanted to sit with me at lunch. Now I'm just kinda used to it.
Henry: Well in that case...is this seat taken?

s01e04

Henry: I'm really proud of you. You really did a good job tonight.

Saperstein: I could dip you.
Henry: Actually sir, it was Eliza's revelation.

s01e05

Saperstein: She's the perfect +1.
Henry: Actually sir, she's more than a +1. She's VIP.

Henry: Eliza, I'm sorry. I wasn't listening to you. You weren't hurting me this weekend, you were helping me.

Henry: That exclamation aside, I don't want you to think I value my job more than I value...our friendship.

Eliza: You worship me.
Henry: I do not worship you.
Eliza: Admit it, just admit it, you worship me. It's okay.
Henry: I...I have grown accustomed to your face.
Eliza: Thank you.

s01e09

Henry: Eliza, this is a good idea and I want him to know it's yours.

Eliza: A little bit of you, a little bit of me.
Henry: That seems to be the winning combination.

Henry: Eliza, try to stay off your phone tonight. The only thing that should be glowing at that table is you.
Eliza: Heh, glowing.

s01e13

Eliza: Henry, I don't need you to be right, right now, okay?
Henry: Okay.

Security guard: You're not cool.
Henry: No, I never was...
Henry: She is.

Henry: I don't want you to give me a lap dance. I want you to stop feeling sorry for yourself and start standing up for yourself. You have a lot to be proud of.
Eliza: Yeah!
Henry: Yeah!
