Joel and Heather happened to be at the same posh Beverly Hills restaurant while celebrating milestones in both of their lives. Heather was with her girlfriends toasting her last day at a thankless modeling agency, only to start another thankless agency job the following day. Joel was with his guy friends celebrating the premiere of his film, which would mark his ascendence to even more Hollywood obscurity. Their groups bonded over a seafood tower and sliced steak and that's when Joel learned the way to Heather's heart...food. Specifically crab legs. Three months later, Joel finally worked up the courage to take Heather on a formal date. The rest is history!
