And while I hope @robertdowneyjr and #ChrisEvans *loved* their meal and enjoyed their time at Better Half, none of it would have been possible if Joel wouldn’t have invited them in. 🙏 For this and many many other reasons I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful cooks and servers who work by our side. They make these nights memorable and easy going for all, not only with these two “super hero’s” but many other actors and artist that have come our way as well as for the good ol’ regular folks that dine with us regularly and whom we appreciate so much. I have two regrets about this night: 1) that in the heat of the moment, our servers weren’t asked to be in the picture. They deserved it a hell of a lot more than I did. 2) that I didn’t have the guts to ask @jennyslate and Mrs. Downey for a photo because I truly believe that behind a great man there is an even greater #women and those two are the bees knees and major super stars themselves. Lastly, yes, I know I did a DC #superhero pose next to Marvel super hero’s. Have I not proven my #nerdship to you all yet? Geez. Any further questions I’ll answer with: no comment.

Setelah itu, Evans dan Slate mulai aktif berbalas komentar dan pesan di Twitter. Ketika Evans berkicau tentang lagu yang bisa menenangkannya saat stres dan butuh istirahat, Slate tiba-tiba berkomentar tentang sang kekasih punya waktu luang seminggu penuh.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">"Probably haven't"???? Cmon, Christopher. Have you done your homework or haven't you? It's 7pm and you've had the whoooole weekend. Cmon.</p>— jenny slate (@jennyslate) <a href="https://twitter.com/jennyslate/status/921872932850118656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 21, 2017</a></blockquote>

“Lagu tema untuk Mash membuatku stres. Respons Pavlovian adalah sekarang waktunnya untuk tidur. Dan aku mungkin belum mengerjakan PR-ku,” kicau Evans Oktober lalu.
Slate datang dengan komentar, “’Mungkin belum?’ Ayolah, Christopher. Sudah atau belumkah kau mengerjakan PR-mu? Ini jam 7 malam dan kau punya waktu seminggu. Ayolah.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is terrifying and exhilarating. Meet me behind the gym after science. I have shark bites.</p>— jenny slate (@jennyslate) <a href="https://twitter.com/jennyslate/status/921919432674263042?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 22, 2017</a></blockquote>

Evans langsung menanggapi komentar aneh Slate tersebut. Dengan bercanda Evans meminta Slate untuk menuliskannya sesuatu dan mengajaknya membolos.

“Ini menakutkan dan menyenangkan. Temui aku di belakang gym setelah jam pelajaran IPA. Aku punya gigitan hiu,” balas Slate. Demikian dilansir Los Angeles Times, Jumat (1/12/2017).
