For those of you who haven't seen Thoughtcrimes (or even heard of it):

Thoughtcrimes was hopefully to become a series and then didn't, but they made an intro movie thingy as part of the attempt and it stands well on its own.

The general idea is, a girl (Freya) starts hearing voices at her prom, and is institutionalised. Some time later a govt. funded group find her, and train her in her telepathy. She then starts helping the NSA (National Security Administration) with an investigation into a potential terrorist threat. The guy she's working with, Brendan Dean (JF) doesn't know she's a telepath.

The scene in which we meet him (and he meets Freya) is fucking adorable. It's not too spoilery, so I thought I'd share. :)
Here's a short version, with just their initial meeting: Brendan has a bad day (http://www.ambry.dreamhosters.com/Underground%20bunker/Thoughtcrimes%20-%20Brendan%20has%20a%20bad%20day.mp4) - .mpg, 6.4MB, right click save.
And here's an extended version, with their meeting and their interaction afterwards - this has Brendon singing the Scooby Doo themesong in his head, for those of you who have seen references to this in fic: Brendan meets Freya (http://www.ambry.dreamhosters.com/Underground%20bunker/Thoughtcrimes%20-%20Dean%20meets%20Freya.mp4) - .mpg, 15.2MB, right click save.

Small spoilery commentary on the clip: The moment when he chokes on the cough syrup? And then is all pissed off? Will never stop being adorable. Plus, him singing the Scooby Doo theme song is great. :) Sadly, even though he takes his shirt off, he's wearing a t-shirt underneath. Flanigan, you tease.
