So it's no wonder then that he's spent his career crafting them on the long-running reality dating show \u003ci\u003eEver After\u003c\/i\u003e. As the most successful producer in the franchise's history, Dev always scripts the perfect love story for his contestants, even as his own love life crashes and burns.

Behind the scenes, he's cold, awkward, and emotionally closed-off. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs Dev fights to get Charlie to connect with the contestants on a whirlwind, worldwide tour, they begin to open up to each other, and Charlie realizes he has better chemistry with Dev than with any of his female co-stars.
