Anyway, David Hewlett was in the Canadian drama "Traders" (about stock market folk) and he played Grant Jansky, the programmer geek genius type who makes Rodney McKay look as suave as James Bond ;) Yes, Grant works in a closet (at his own request) and I'm pretty sure I heard in one episode (it's been a while) he likes to be paid in chocolate. Yes, an oddball. Anyway, in this clip, a coworker, Donald (Rick Roberts) is trying to hook up Grant with a girl whom Grant really likes but is clueless on how to approach.
So, enjoy :)

Date: 2008-10-01 04:02 am (UTC)In the first episode Grant appears, (ep 1x3, "Bad is Good"), derivatives genius Grant Jansky is coaxed out of retirement by Jack Larkin (David Cubitt, "Medium") when a bad deal puts the investment bank Gardner Ross in the hole for 2 million dollars and the company needs money quick. Grant doesn't want money, but Jack insists he has to be paid so Grant negotiates 50 pounds of chocolate a week as his salary.
