I set the timer for 30 minutes into the date and set the alarm to my ringtone. If the date is going well, just ignore with "Oh, I'm sorry, should've put it on vibrate. How rude of me." If the date is going badly, turn that baby up on high whilst it's in your pocket (or purse, I guess) and let the acting begin. "I'm sorry, I told my friend to call me if she found out anything about her cat, etc." Love it! I also use the iPhone timer to get out of dates.
