   I love the female lead's personality. She's outgoing, resourceful, rational, and prioritizes her own interests, constantly challenging and defeating those patriarchal old men. She's also very clear-headed about relationships; she doesn't hesitate to target the male lead's company for her own company's benefit, and he even falls for her advances. I really want her to teach a class on this; I want to learn it!
