Original subtitles

Start sexy mode.

[upbeat music playing]

[whispering] Yeah.

[chuckles]

Sheena and I use security cameras

so we can feel closer.

But after seven years, I'm finally flying

to the Philippines to meet her for the first time in person.

You wanna come home with me?

I don't have the best track record

when it comes to boyfriends.

But I'm flying to Morocco to meet my future husband, Ziad.

Don't leave me. All the boys run away from me.

[Laura] I met a guy online.

[friend] Wait, you're dating someone?

I am, it's not Michal.

Oh.

[Laura] Birkan is the man of my dreams.

But I think my best friend has feelings for me that are more

than just friendship.

I can't compete with six-foot-one "hot."

We hear you're going to the Philippines.

I'm going to see my wife.

When was the last time you saw her?

I've never even met my wife yet.

Oh, OK.

Annalyn and I have been married for three years.

And it's time to see how we function

in a marriage in person.

-Things have sure changed since we were married. -[Jovon] Yes.

[screams]

[Rick] I came all the way to Madagascar

to meet my dream girl.

But it's just hard for me to trust her.

I would call you, you would decline.

I feel like you were with somebody else.

[Lisa] For the past 21 years, I have been with women only.

But Daniel has no idea about this aspect of my life.

[Forrest] My mom is coming with me to meet Sheena,

and I'm kind of worried because...

[Molly] She blatantly lied.

That pisses me off.

Oh, my God!

I am totally thrown off by the text messages

that he sent me.

I mean, it's just like a weird thing to wait

until I get here to say.

I don't know what is wrong with him.

[Rick] All you're trying to do is just make me jealous,

and it's a game for you.

I will never be back to that ex.

I don't wanna talk about my ex!

I'm trying to work on us!

I'm done lying. I am done hiding truth.

[Lisa] I won't do that, sir.

I will leave, and Daniel can go home with you.

She tricked me.

[Lisa cries]

She have to leave.

It's done.

[birds chirping]

[peaceful piano music playing]

[Forrest] There we go.

Mm, hmm, hmm.

[Sheena speaking]

[Forrest] Don't worry, everything's going good, baby.

-I love you. -[Sheena speaking]

[fun, upbeat music playing]

[Forrest speaking]

-[Sheena speaking] -[Forrest] Yeah, I got egg and coffee.

My name's Forrest.

I'm 32, and I live in The Dalles, Oregon.

I'll call you after I'm done with my breakfast.

I've set my house up as a smart home.

Ah!

What are you doing down there? Are you picking on me?

I have, uh, tons of light bulbs, I have sensors for everything.

And to top it off, I have security cameras

that my girlfriend, Sheena, pretty much has access to 24/7.

I -- I know it might be awkward uh, for some people to have

their girlfriends have so much, you know,

control over their lives and be able to see them

and talk to them all the time.

But to me, it actually comforts me

and makes me feel a lot better

just knowing that she's always there.

Like, what if I fall over and nobody can, like,

see or I can't get to anybody?

There she is, right there, making sure I'm safe 24/7.

Sheena is extra special to me.

She's one of the only people that has truly

put out the effort to understand me.

But she lives in the Philippines,

and we've been dating for seven years,

but we never truly met each other in person.

So I'm on Filipino time because I wanna spend as much time

with Sheena as possible.

These are the blackout curtains that I use.

So at 4 AM, I say goodnight to her, I put these up,

and I sleep until three or four, and that's when

uh, Sheena wakes up,

and then we start our day anew, again together.

Oh, and as you can see here, I have all my bears

I've collected for Sheena.

Of course, the big panda bear is Sheena.

And this is kind of like our own, like, little kids

and everything right here for our future.

[laughs]

And then if she wants more romance,

hey, Siri, start sexy mode.

[music playing]

There it is.

[whispering] Yeah.

[chuckles]

At first, having our sexy moments on camera was

very awkward and interesting for me.

She was like, "Hey, Forrest, do you wanna go

in the other room and check things out?"

And I'm like, "What do you mean?"

It's like, "Strip down your clothes, boy."

And I was like, "Oh, OK."

So she got to see all that, and she said she loved my flab.

And I -- I got to see all, everything she had,

beautiful curves and everything. Oh, just imagining it

just makes my heart flutter.

And sorry, guys.

[sighs]

I am super duper confident that Sheena is 100%

the woman for me.

But I -- I don't want it to be virtual forever.

I want to move things forward.

So after seven years, I've finally, uh,

got enough money so I can book a flight to go visit Sheena

in the Philippines. I am super-duper excited.

I cannot wait to be there.

The only thing is, I'm not going alone.

[Molly] Forrest!

-Forrest! -Hey, Mom.

-How's it going? -[Molly] Ah, I'm alright.

God, that thing is always staring at me everywhere I go.

Hey, Sheena!

-Where is she? -[Forrest] At work.

[Molly] Oh, OK.

Are you ready for the trip?

[Forrest] Yeah, I can't wait, Mom.

Speaking of which, I'm gonna take you to a store.

[Forrest speaking]

A store you need to go to, to be prepared.

-Oh, oh! -You wait and see.

[Forrest] When I leave in a few days, both my mom and my stepdad

are going with me to the Philippines.

I feel happy knowing that they're going to be there

to support me and be there for me.

But I'm kind of worried

because my mom's definitely hard-headed.

She has her own, uh, opinions on things, and she'll definitely

say whatever's on her mind.

I'm ready to go.

-[Molly] OK, let's hit it. -Let's mosey on out of here.

-[Molly] OK. -All righty.

I know she has good intentions, but she also has an issue

with complicating things, and I'm really nervous

that she's going to blow everything up.

[Molly] God, Forrest, that camera just weirds me out.

It has a mind of its own.

[Emma] As long as I can remember,

I've always been a super hopeless romantic.

I just couldn't wait to have someone there who loves me

more than anything.

I used to envision being engaged and trying on dresses.

Honestly, there have been so many times where marriage

has felt like a fantasy to me

and has just felt fully out of reach.

[friends speaking]

I don't know, I think I just wanna try on a couple more,

just a couple. -OK, but we're here for me.

I'm getting married.

Right, OK.

-[friend] OK? -I'm sorry.

OK.

[Emma] OK, let's be honest.

Marriage still feels like a fantasy to me.

♪ Yeah ♪

♪ I'm the boss ♪

♪ You just play and I already won the game ♪

My name is Emma and I am 27 years old.

I'm an old lady.

Yes.

I just feel like at this point I should be married,

I should have a family, I should have kids,

but instead I'm living with my sister Izzi.

I literally hate how she did my Botox.

Let me see. Make, like, an angry face.

Now raise your eyebrows.

-Raise -- try to raise them. -Are they not raising?

No.

We are identical twins, and we both love beauty

and we love Botox.

I'm actually an office manager at a med spa,

and my sister works at a competing med spa

directly across the street from where I work,

which just fully, completely describes

our relationship as twins.

I, like, literally am trying.

Other than our love for Botox,

my sister and I are so different in every way.

Hello!

Hi, excuse me?

You're interrupting my yoga pose.

Let's go ahead and get in a child's pose.

Feel the calming energy from the puppies.

[Emma] Hello.

We are especially different when it comes to boys.

Izzi likes to take her time, but me, on the other hand...

I just love you.

Do you wanna come home with me?

Do you wanna be mine?

At least let him buy you a drink first.

I'm definitely a little bit boy crazy.

I fall in love after one date...

or one shot of tequila.

One shot of tequila, I love you,

two shots of tequila, I'm going home with you.

Is that bad to say?

You are so cute! No, don't leave me.

Don't leave me...OK.

All the boys run away from me.

But dating in LA is such a joke.

[Izzi speaking]

Excuse you!

Be a gentleman.

This one is so cute.

I can adopt you...

I don't think that's a good idea.

[Emma] Why?

'Cause I feel like you shouldn't even be going

to Morocco in the first place.

[Emma] It's not like I've met these stand-up guys in LA.

[Izzi] Well, it's not like you're meeting

stand-up guys in Morocco.

-Ziad is a stand-up guy, Izzi. -He has the same red flags

as the losers you date here. -[Emma] I mean, now he --

OK, you don't have to be mean and call them losers.

Well, they are.

You haven't even met him, and you're, like,

doing all of this to go across the world,

and I just feel like you're making a really big mistake.

[Emma] My sister is always skeptical about the guys that I'm dating

'cause I don't have the best track record

when it comes to boyfriends.

But when I met Ziad, he just made me feel like

he wanted me and there were no questions about it,

which is why I fell for him right away.

Ziad is 27 years old and he's from Marrakesh in Morocco.

He's such a sweetheart.

He's so genuine and he's so kind.

And he really just makes me feel like he truly loves me

for me, which is so different from anything else I've had

in the past.

A little over a year ago,

I downloaded an international dating app.

And after five minutes of downloading the app,

Ziad messaged me, and I thought he was so cute,

I just couldn't resist talking to him.

Ziad was calling me his future wife like 15 minutes

into our first conversation,

and that sealed the deal for me.

Me and Ziad talk a lot about our future together.

I mean, we talk about getting married.

We've talked about him moving to the US.

So in a few days, I am flying to Morocco to see him,

and I am not leaving until there is a ring on my finger

and I am engaged.

I really do love Ziad, and, like, he is different.

He bought me a ring, and I hope that he gives it to me

on my birthday, because I feel like that would be really cute.

A planned engagement that you know about?

I mean, we talk about our future, so,

you know, it's -- it's kind of planned.

You talk about your future with someone that you

don't even know.

Just 'cause we haven't met in person,

that doesn't mean that I don't know him.

[Izzi] They're planning an engagement

and to spend their lives together,

but the relationship seems very surface level,

and I'm not really sure what Ziad is looking for,

but it just doesn't seem like

it's -- it's true love.

I feel like I would be more excited for her going

to Morocco and getting engaged if this was something that

she hadn't done before.

Do you not realize that this is exactly what you did

with Mohammed last year?

And do you remember the outcome?

[Emma] I mean, yeah, I remember.

Ziad is actually not my first Moroccan boyfriend.

Last year, I flew to Morocco for the first time

to meet Mohammed.

And I was completely head-over-heels

in love with him.

But he ended up breaking my heart.

It's not gonna be the same outcome.

Like, I really feel like Ziad loves me.

I don't understand what's different.

[Emma] You're just...

I feel like you just don't get it.

I wouldn't be going to Morocco again if I wasn't sure that

this is completely different from my previous relationship.

But the main thing I'm worried about is that Ziad knows

nothing about any of this.

He doesn't know that I was engaged before,

to a different Moroccan man,

and I have no idea what's gonna happen when he finds out.

I am a fifth-grade teacher, and one of my favorite hobbies

is reading smutty, dark, romantasy novels.

I've even dabbled in writing them.

"Her pulse pounded, breath hitching as his dark eyes

"burned into hers, and then his lips crashed

against hers, hot, desperate, and consuming."

Sounds like a great night.

I am super duper excited to just finally start

our lives together!

Oh, well, Forrest, take your time.

I'm trying to put on a happy face for Forrest,

but there's some things in this situation that I've seen

that I don't like.

So I don't trust Sheena.

Once you meet, it could be something totally different.

Line dancing is a blast.

What do you think I should wear for line dancing?

[AI voice] Go for something casual, like jeans or leggings,

and pair it with a comfortable top.

If you have cowboy boots, they're perfect for the classic

line dancing vibe. -OK, thanks.

♪ I know that you're the one ♪

[Laura] Should I go get lunch first?

And do you have any good recommendations

since I'm kinda done with salads today?

[AI voice] You could try something like a warm grain bowl

with roasted veggies and protein,

or even a hearty sandwich.

[Laura] That sounds great.

You always give the best advice.

I'm Laura. I'm 47 years old.

I am a fifth-grade teacher at an elementary school,

and I'm from Vancouver, Washington.

Recently, I saw a social media reel,

and a girl was like,

"Hey, stop driving your friends crazy.

Use AI instead."

And then I just started using it to, like, help me

in my daily life when I have to write emails, text messages,

and when I have a question about pretty much anything.

Are Turkish men well endowed? Have you ever heard?

[AI voice] My guidelines won't let me talk about that.

Can I help you with something else?

[Laura] Sometimes AI is kind of prudish,

but I wouldn't consider myself a prude.

One of my favorite hobbies is reading smutty,

dark, romantasy novels.

I've even dabbled in writing them sometimes.

Would you like to hear one?

Let me get it on my phone here.

"Her pulse pounded, breath hitching as his dark eyes

"burned into hers, and then his lips crashed

"against hers, hot, desperate, and consuming.

"The taste of mint and smoke lingered on his tongue

"as he kissed her like he was staking his territory.

"A shiver ran down her spine as she melted into him,

surrendering to the fire between them."

Not too bad.

Sounds like a great night.

[chuckles]

But so far, none of my relationships

have had that happy ending.

I got married when I was only 21,

and it just didn't work out.

In the years since then,

I've dated some really nice guys.

I even got engaged at one point.

But I feel like there was always something missing,

because most guys haven't been very interested in the things

that I like until I met Michal.

-Hey, guys, sorry I'm late. -[Michal] About time.

[Laura] Alright, ready?

Heads up, tits up, let's [bleep] them up!

Go get them!

[rock music playing]

[Michal] Oh!

[Laura] There we go.

[Michal] Nice, you've been practicing.

[Laura] That was great.

I first met Michal playing pickleball at a local park.

We clicked instantly and also just cleaned up on the court.

And the more Michal and I started hanging out,

we just realized we had a ton in common.

Nice, nice.

Nice try, [bleep], it's too bad Michal can't get it up.

[friend laughs]

[Laura] Did I mess you up?

[Michal] I'm a mess because of you, Laura.

[Laura] We don't only play pickleball together.

We hike, we bike, we kayak, we line dance.

We cook together.

We have amazing conversations together.

Michal is always a great sounding board

and super supportive.

He is just an incredible person.

-[friend] Oh, poop! -[Michal] Nice game, guys.

[Laura] Good game, guys.

I forgot to tell you that I won't be able to play again

for a while.

I'm actually going to Turkey in about a week.

-Turkey? -[Laura] Yeah.

I met a guy online a couple months ago.

-Wait, you're dating someone? -[Laura] I am dating someone.

-It's not Michal. -So -- oh.

Oh, my God.

I can't compete with six-foot-one "hot."

[friend] No.

Everyone who has seen Michal and me interact would assume

that we are either dating or are married.

And even though things have been confusing between us at times...

[Michal speaking]

Would you like...

there you go.

-You're hilarious. -I know.

[Laura] ...he really is just my best friend.

My actual boyfriend's name is Birkan,

and he lives in Izmir, Turkey.

About six months ago, I decided to download Snapchat

because I really wanted some cute Christmas filters

for Christmas photos.

And me being just dumb with technology did not realize

that Snapchat was a way to,

like, meet new people to chat with.

I had no idea there was, like, a "find a friend" feature.

So that piqued my interest more than the actual filters.

So I never actually got a Christmas filter.

Instead, I got a lot of guys in my DMs.

And the one I was most interested in was Birkan.

♪ I'll never be a snack, I'm a four-course meal ♪

[Laura] Birkan has this amazing bad-boy aesthetic.

I mean, he's tall, he's got dark hair,

he's got a smokin'-hot tattoo,

and he is absolutely like the hot male main character

straight off the pages of a romance novel.

It's a little crazy, I know, I know.

-Why is it a little crazy? -[Laura] Because he's super young.

[friend] How old is he?

-He's 26. -Oh!

What?

-Oh, so it's a, like, winter-spring romance. -It's, like, [indistinct].

Sure, is that what it's called?

[Laura] I mean, but when you talk to him,

he doesn't come across like someone who's 26.

He feels like more of a man, like a manly man,

than anybody that I've dated here. -[friend] OK.

[Laura] It's been kinda difficult for him in Turkey,

but mainly works in cafes.

So that's why he wants to open one.

-[friend speaking] -[Laura] I don't know.

Super sweet, super great, and he's [bleep] hot.

He's really hot.

[friend] The most important characteristic.

I don't -- I don't know, he's hot, shut up.

My relationship with Laura is pretty close.

We've become essentially kind of like best friends.

Have a good one. Enjoy your dinner.

[friend] Thank you.

[Michal] We're pretty much partners all day long.

Sometimes people have said,

"Yeah, you guys are, like... you guys are definitely

a couple, we always thought you were a couple."

But when I met Laura, she was engaged,

so my brain was completely off.

I wasn't thinking of her in a romantic way.

-[Laura] You ready for dinner? -Yeah.

-What do you wanna do? -Sushi?

-Sushi sounds great. -My treat?

-Yeah, obviously. -I owe you.

Alright.

Uh, in a way, he already has.

If he must actually come here, I mean, that would completely

dissolve what we have.

You know, that -- that -- that camaraderie, that friendship,

that closeness. So thinking about losing her,

I -- I don't know.

I -- I have all these wild thoughts going through my head.

After you, Your Highness.

See, I can treat you like a princess, too.

[Laura] Oh, I love that for me, thank you.

[fun music playing]

[Molly] I tell you, you're gonna like this place.

[Forrest] Let us mosey.

-[Molly] So are you ready? -I am ready, Mom, I'm --

OK, so.

OK, do you remember when you turned 18 where we went?

-Oh, no way! -Yep.

-[Forrest] Oh, no. -We're going back there, the sex shop, yep.

-[Molly] It's seven years, long time coming. -Yeah.

Come on, you need to get her something special.

And I wouldn't steer you wrong ever, Forrest.

[Forrest] I know, Mom.

When he was 18, I discovered Forrest had gotten

into our little stash that me and my husband had of magazines

and videos and things like that.

And so I told Forrest that if he had an interest in that,

that I would take him to the adult shop,

but he had to stay out of my stuff.

I can't -- I can't wait to get in there, though.

[Forrest] It's nice that I can always go to her and to support me

and give me the advice that I need.

-Thank you. -We -- we're -- we're a good team.

Yep.

I think the easiest thing to bring with me

would probably be some, uh, maybe some lingerie there.

What's your favorite color?

Oh, I think it's purple.

Maybe get her a nice, purple little negligee.

You know, maybe even throw in the little thong panties with it, or...

Oh, my gosh, Sheena, thong panty.

Mom, I'm gonna run off the road if I start thinking too hard.

Yeah, don't do that.

[Forrest] For many other people, I think it would be awkward

to go to a sex shop with their mothers,

but besides Sheena, my mom is my best friend.

She's very caring, very loving.

And if it wasn't for my mother, I would have never met Sheena

in the first place.

Seven years ago, I was kinda having a hard time in my life.

I have autism and, uh, ADHD.

It can be very hard for me at times to relate

to other people.

So my mom added me to a social media group.

I was skeptical at first.

But after joining the group, it was about 35 seconds in,

and I saw Sheena's post.

I just commented on it, and everything happened.

She started messaging me, we just fell.

I just fell more and more in love with her every single day.

I'm really nervous about meeting up with her

and doing those kinds of things.

-I know we talked about it... -Well...

But I'm super-duper excited to just finally

start our lives together, we talked about it for so long.

Oh, well, Forrest, take your time.

I -- I know it's been, like, seven years,

and you guys have gotten into a routine

of how you things -- do things.

But once you meet...

and you guys -- it -- it could be something totally different.

Right.

I'm trying to put on a happy face for Forrest

because I know they love each other.

I've never seen my son happier, and I don't want him

to lose that.

But I would have an issue with Forrest going if I wasn't going,

because I don't trust Sheena.

There's some things in this situation that I've seen

that I don't like.

He can be taken advantage of.

And I desperately worry that this trip is about

to be a disaster.

[Forrest] Alright, make sure you got your ID, Mom.

They're gonna card you.

Oh, yeah, there you go.

I see a big truck coming at me and coming at Forrest

that I'm gonna have to grab him and pull him out of the way of.

[Forrest] Oh, my gosh.

[Rick] Five, six, seven, and eight.

[upbeat music playing]

I'm kind of a jack-of-all-trades.

We got a natural, raw Indian hair.

But any time that I have free, I'm spending with my kids.

You know Dad's girlfriend, Trisha?

He's finally gonna get to meet her in person.

Me and Trisha getting closer and closer,

and I could see visions of us as a family.

But ever since a few weeks ago, I don't know if I can

fully trust her.

[electronic music playing]

[phone ringing]

[Emma] Hi, babe.

Hi, babe, how are you?

[Emma] You look so handsome.

Look, I'm at the beach right now.

I'm trying to get tan. Do I look tan?

In a few days, I am flying to Morocco for the second time.

But this time, I'm gonna meet my future husband, Ziad.

I love Ziad, and he's who I wanna be with,

because not only is Ziad so sweet and so kind

and so loving to me.

He's sexy.

I can't wait for you to pick me up at the airport,

and I can finally kiss you.

Wait, so am I allowed to kiss you in the airport?

No, but aren't there, like, weird rules about, like...

[Ziad speaking]

Are you nervous for our first night, babe?

[Ziad speaking]

You only wanna kiss and hug me?

That's it?

We're gonna do everything on night one.

We're getting right to it.

-Ah. -[Emma] OK?

Ziad and my ex, Mohammed, are both Muslim.

But Mohammed was very conservative,

whereas Ziad has been really open with me

when it comes to sexual things.

I send Ziad sexy selfies all the time.

He's seen everything about me from head to toe,

but he's actually never returned the favor.

He's never sent me sexy nudes.

We've never had, like, sexy video chats.

So even though I'm completely in love with him,

I'm just really concerned

because what if his penis is really small,

or what if it's uncircumcised?

I hope that I don't, like, pull his pants down and find

any surprises down there.

Like, I truly don't know what I would do.

So what else are we gonna do when I'm there?

You're gonna be with me on my birthday, babe.

Are you gonna plan something special for my birthday?

[Ziad speaking]

Yeah, but the plan is to get engaged.

Is it gonna happen?

OK.

All I ever wanted was a happy relationship

and to get married.

But Ziad is acting really vague about getting engaged,

and it just kinda makes me concerned.

After Mohammed being such a fail,

this is really my chance.

I found someone that I really care about and that I love.

So I'm hoping that he isn't having second thoughts about us.

I can't wait to see you, babe.

OK, give me a kiss.

Alright, bye, babe.

See you in just a couple of days.

OK, see you soon.

Alright, ladies, it's tax time, so we're having

our annual Tax Day sale.

We got the natural raw Indian hair,

and we got nice blonde look.

My name is Rick.

I'm 52 years old, and I live in Los Angeles, California.

Save 20% using promo code SAVE20.

Don't hesitate, get it now.

I started a hair and wig extension business

'cause my ex-wife's a hairstylist,

and some of her clients used to be in need of some hair,

so I decided to order the best quality hair

that I possibly could from India.

Around tax season, business starts to pick up.

Women get money, and they tend to buy the --

the higher-quality stuff at that time.

The business is kinda seasonal, so it doesn't pay all the bills,

but I'm kind of a jack-of-all-trades.

OK.

Five, six, seven, and eight.

[tap shows clicking]

People are usually surprised to find out that I teach

tap dance, but my mom,

she grew up on Shirley Temple movies,

and I kinda quickly became,

-[kid] Whoo, whoo, whoo! -[Frederick] Daddy, daddy!

[Samson speaking]

Any time that I have free, I'm spending with my kids.

Good job! You're so strong, man!

I have five children, three are grown adults

from previous relationships,

and two young sons from my most recent marriage.

Whoo!

I love being a dad.

It brings joy to my heart, and I consider it a blessing.

Oh, you're gonna make your own castle?

-[Samson speaking] -[Rick] There it is.

-[Samson] Wow. -[Rick] Madagascar bridge.

-Samson? -[Samson] What?

You know dad's girlfriend, Trisha?

He's been talking to her for a very long time,

and he's finally gonna get to meet her in person.

-Isn't that exciting? -Yeah.

[Rick] Yeah.

[Samson] Yeah.

[Rick] My girlfriend's name is Trisha.

She's 25 years old, and she's from Madagascar.

Antana...Antana...

V -- I know there's two Vs, V-I-V-O.

Capital...

of Madagascar.

She lives in Antananarivo, Madagascar.

-[Rick] You wanna talk to her? -Yeah.

Alright, let's go. Frederick, come on.

Let's go talk to Trish.

I love to travel, and on a recent trip,

I met two very attractive women from Madagascar.

My only knowledge of Madagascar was the animated film.

I didn't even know that, uh, the country really existed.

But it's an island nation off the eastern coast of Africa.

Either way, I thought to myself,

"These girls are so beautiful."

So I decided to go on the dating site

and search to Madagascar.

[phone ringing]

-Alright. -[Trisha speaking]

[Samson speaking]

[Rick] Baby, you look amazing.

Hello, Trish.

When I first saw her pictures, I just thought she was

so adorable with her curly hair and her big smile.

Her eyes sparkling through my phone

really caught my attention.

Trish was sending me many, many messages,

and we were getting closer and closer day by day,

and I could see visions of us holding hands,

going to the beach,

spending time together as a family.

Come this way.

[Frederick] Yeah, let's go.

You know, when I look at Frederick and Samson,

they're so cute, it makes me to want to have a babies.

Look at you and look at me.

We can make a good babies, like...

Oh, I -- I -- I have no doubt about that.

I know that if we had babies,

they would turn out so beautiful.

But, you know, I already have five of my own, and it's...

Yeah, but...

Yeah, I think -- I think that would be best

if we talk about it later.

We got three weeks together to -- to figure everything out

and, um, and address other concerns as well.

OK.

[Rick] Even if I did wanna have a baby with Trish,

I don't feel like our relationship is ready to be

thinking about kids right now, because I don't know if I can

fully trust her.

A few weeks ago, she just stopped talking to me.

She basically ghosted me.

I was going crazy because I didn't know what was happening.

I... [exhales]

I felt abandoned.

Finally, after five days, she answered my call.

I've tried to discuss this with her.

But all it does is make her angry.

So I still don't know what really happened.

I need to get to the bottom of the truth.

When I see her in person...

we need to build trust

or it's not gonna work out between us.

I cannot wait you to come. The time goes so slow.

Long overdue, baby.

I gotta pack the kids up now.

-Love you. -[Rick] Love you, too, baby.

I'll see you in my dreams, OK?

You're constantly on my mind, even in my sleep.

-OK. -[Rick] Alright, baby.

I'm looking past the parents.

Forrest, you can't look past the parents, because Sheena

does everything that the parents want her to do.

She's been dishonest to you, and I'm afraid

there's something fishy going on.

Oh, yeah, he...

on a few other things. -Purple, good -- let's go -- let's head on over here.

she -- she is shapely. -We -- we are queen size.

-Yes, voluptuous. -"Queen size" is a way to say it.

-Yeah, no, I'm a such a rude... -[Cashier] Yes, queen size is perfect.

[Forrest] In a few days, I'm heading to the Philippines

to meet Sheena.

It feels unbelievable that after seven years

of being online, talking,

chatting, that I'm finally gonna be able to hold her

in my arms and just get to experience her.

I'm looking so forward to it.

-[cashier] We do have our queen size, yeah. -I'm eyeballing that.

Sorry, I'm eyeballing that right there, Forrest.

This one is fantastic.

We have a wide variety of sizes um, with the cup.

And then we also have the magenta without the cup.

-[Molly] Ooh! -Isn't that pretty?

[Molly] Forrest, which do you think she would like?

Uh...

I like this style here, but I'm not good at this stuff,

and I got my mom here, too, to help me out with that, so.

I love that she's helping you. That is wonderful.

I'm super duper nervous just being in here,

and lots of stuff going on.

[Molly] That's what Mom is for, right?

Yep.

Sheena and I, we have been having

kind of sexual intercourse over the cameras and everything.

But I've never slept with a woman before

and I've never really kissed a woman before

besides my mother and my grandmother.

I don't think that counts.

I'm more drawn to this.

Yeah, I definitely think she would like this a lot more.

Sheena's a virgin as well, and when I get

to the Philippines, we're planning

on losing our virginity together.

I'm hoping it's gonna go OK. It's very...

crazy, crazy to think about.

I'm gonna go ahead and set these here for you,

and I'll come check on you guys in a few minutes, OK?

-[Forrest] All righty. Thank you. -[Molly] I appreciate that.

Thank you, Mom. I'm going...

I'm glad that you're gonna be there with me.

I will be there with you through thick and thin.

Dev will be there.

[Molly] Dev is gonna be there, too.

And he has his...

he wants to support you, but he has the same questions

that I do.

And I do want you to have a happy family,

but gosh-darn it, Forrest, there's something

fishy going on with her parents.

I'm looking past the parents.

Forrest, you can't look past the parents,

because Sheena does everything that the parents want her to do.

She's proven that. She's been dishonest to you.

-Mm-hmm. -[Molly] And I'm just concerned.

I'm af -- I'm afraid they're scammers.

Initially, I trusted Sheena.

Then I started seeing the little signs.

Sheena had a bank account with money that was supposed

to be saved for her and Forrest, so that they could start

their lives together.

But years later, Sheena tells Forrest that her parents were

on that account, and they took all of the money out of it,

stole it.

Forrest said, "Sheena, open your own bank account up

"and put your money in there.

Do not give your family any more money."

But then four years later, they did it a second time,

same thing.

It's like, wait a minute, something's fishy about this.

You've been trying to get things set up so that she can

come over here and all that type stuff.

Did she ever make the account? Her own account?

'Cause she promised that she did.

She told me she did. I believe that she did.

I do believe I can trust Sheena 100%.

When Sheena lied to me about the money,

I wasn't upset with Sheena as much as the parents,

because I feel like the parents manipulated their daughter.

I think the people that are the scammers are

Sheena's parents, while Sheena is, unfortunately, Cinderella.

I didn't wanna mention this, Mom,

but I might end up staying longer.

No.

No.

If I'm able to stay there longer, then I can get

the visa process more, and she can get

further away from her parents. -No, no.

This is not the path for you.

No.

What's going on with this thing over here?

Is this like a scarf or what?

Well, Mohammed's mom made that for me.

So you're gonna tell him that Mohammed's mom

gifted that to you?

[Emma] I haven't told Ziad about Mohammed

because, when me and Ziad first started talking,

there was a little bit of an overlap

between the two of them.

If it was me, it would be instant breakup.

That's what's gonna happen with most guys.

[Emma] I can't believe today's the day.

I couldn't sleep last night.

I'm, like, really, really excited.

I mean, I've been thinking about this for...

I feel like, every day for months now.

I bought, like, some really cute thongs the other day,

like, sexy ones.

There's, like, barely anything there,

'cause I wanna look sexy.

Even when I'm sleeping, I can never look gross.

OK, so this looks good.

The problem is gonna be

getting all of this stuff downstairs.

[grunts]

-[Zach speaking] -[Emma] Almost.

This is mine. She's not taking this.

-[Zach] Damn, Em. -Are you OK?

[Emma] Yeah, I just have a lot of stuff to bring.

Well, you still have to pack all of this, and your flight

is, like, in an hour. -I'm, like, almost ready.

So what's going on with this thing over here?

Is this, like, a scarf or what? What do you do with this?

[Emma] Well, Mohammed's mom made that for me.

[Izzi] Why are you bringing a dress that Mohammed's mom made you

to go meet Ziad for the first time?

That makes me feel like you're not over him.

[Emma] I mean, Mohammed put me through hell.

So that's not the case.

Mohammed and I had a lot of good times together,

but the whole thing really ended horribly.

I had been visiting him in Morocco, and we got engaged.

But then, while I was on the plane back to Los Angeles,

something felt weird.

So I went on Mohammed's social media, and I messaged

pretty much every single girl that he was following.

And it turned out that he had almost 20 other girlfriends,

and they were all talking to him.

After I landed back in LA, Mohammed sent me

a text message. "You're crazy, and I'm done."

I felt really heartbroken because I left Morocco

seeing a future between us, and at the end, I just felt

just really used, and I felt broken.

And it took me a lot of time to come back from that.

But I don't wanna cry.

Sorry.

[Izzi] I think if I was getting engaged, the last thing

that I would be thinking about is bringing these gifts

that Mohammed's family got for you.

He's gonna be like, "How do you have this dress?"

Like, "Where did you get this from?"

Yeah, and then I'll tell him.

So you're gonna tell him that Mohammed's mom

gifted that to you on your last trip

when you got engaged?

I will tell him, yes, eventually.

At some point on the trip, I'm gonna tell him everything.

I did tell Ziad that I was in Morocco before,

but he thinks that I was there with a friend.

I haven't told Ziad about Mohammed

because when me and Ziad first started talking online,

me and Mohammed were kind of on rocky terms.

So there was a little bit of an overlap

between the two of them.

Me and Ziad talked for about a couple of weeks,

but I decided I was gonna make things work with Mohammed,

and I ended up cutting things off with Ziad.

But eventually, things fell apart with Mohammed and I.

And five months ago, I got a message from Ziad,

and we kind of just, like, picked up where we left off.

I wanna tell Ziad everything, but at the same time,

to tell him something that might make him think differently of me

really makes me nervous.

I just think it's a little messed up that you're planning

or hoping that you're gonna get engaged,

and, like, he doesn't even realize that you were

just engaged a year ago.

I'm telling you, if it was me, it would be instant breakup,

like right there on the spot in Morocco.

I'm going home. I don't care how you got here.

Well, don't say that, Zach, 'cause you're gonna stress me out.

But that's what's gonna happen with most guys.

I don't think what Emma's going through right now

is actual love.

After the whole disaster with Mohammed,

I never expected her to do something like this again.

So I'm just really worried that she's just gonna repeat

the same mistakes and this is just gonna turn

into another heartbreak.

[Zach] Even if he is the love of her life,

when Ziad finds out about Mohammed,

he's not gonna be very happy.

So I don't think it's gonna end very well.

OK, I think I got everything, right?

Bye, house. I'll miss you.

When I come back, I will be an engaged gal.

This is not a normal dynamic.

You want time and attention as though I am your girlfriend,

but you're so afraid to take that risk and go all in.

We have to pick a way.

[Laura speaking]

-Don't cut it too small. -[Michal] Yes, ma'am.

[Laura] Then it gets the chocolate everywhere.

That's better.

I'm leaving for Turkey in a few days

to meet the love of my life, Birkan, in person

for the first time.

And I'm a little overwhelmed with all of the things

that I still have to do.

Michal and I have spent a lot of time creating

a really delicious recipe for protein bars.

They give me all of the nutrients that I need,

so I would like to take them with me.

It's funny how I went from making all those cookies

for people, and now everybody wants my protein bars.

My health and fitness is extremely important to me.

During the COVID pandemic, my weight had completely

spiraled out of control, and I was up to 315 pounds.

And I hit a point where I knew that I needed to make

some changes, and I've lost 140 pounds in about 14 months,

all through diet and exercise.

Even though Birkan does assure me that he loves me

exactly the way I am, I do still have some insecurities

about my weight. -Looking good.

Looking like protein bars.

I'm excited to take these to Turkey,

'cause I wanna make sure I have something healthy to take.

So speaking of Turkey, you haven't really said

anything about my coming. How are you feeling?

I am a little on the fence, but maybe we can just

play it by ear.

I mean, if you wanna let me know while you're there,

I will buy a plane ticket

last minute for you and I will fly there, and I will make sure

that you are taken care of. -I appreciate that.

When I very first talked about going to Turkey,

I naturally asked Michal to come with me,

because we do everything together.

We travel, we adventure, and so it just kind of seemed

like a natural extension of that.

But lately, I have been rethinking it.

I know he doesn't like me.

I don't wanna interfere with that.

But if you wanna keep me in your life,

then it'd be nice if he can meet me

and we can do our duking it out guy thing,

whatever it is that men do when we lock horns, you know?

I don't know.

Birkan does not like the fact that I have a male friend

that I spend this much time with.

I asked him why he was so against it,

and his response to me was, "Men know men."

I don't wanna be in a relationship where I feel

like I have a controlling partner who thinks

he can tell me who I can and can't be friends with.

But I can't really blame Birkan for the way that he feels

about Michal, because in reality,

Michal and I are really a lot closer

than, like, a typical guy-girl friendship.

He is a person that I spend the most time with.

I mean,

if he feels that I'm a problem...

-[Laura] Mm-hmm. -Then, my biggest concern is,

how much is he gonna want you to pull away?

[Laura] I mean, I told you that this has an expiration date.

When either one of us met someone,

everything would change.

This is not a normal dynamic.

It's like a relationship but not a relationship

with every single aspect other than the physical aspect of it.

And I'm not quite sure where you want that to go.

At some point during my friendship with Michal.

I definitely developed feelings for him.

He was increasingly spending time with me,

but then would say things like, "I need to find a partner

or someone that I wanna be with."

And so it was a little confusing.

Ultimately, I just decided to take the hit

and move on and keep Michal as a best friend.

But I have noticed Michal's behavior change since I started

getting a lot more serious with Birkan.

His interactions with me have definitely gotten

a little more touchy-feely. He started holding my hand.

He took me on a --

what I can only describe as a date.

So I'm starting to think that Michal has feelings for me

that are more than just friendship.

And for whatever reason,

he has refused to accept or acknowledge it.

I feel like you want my time and attention

as though I am your girlfriend, but you're so afraid

to take that risk and go all in

because you don't wanna end up hurt.

I mean...

It's like it can't go both ways.

We have to pick a way.

So what do you want, Laura?

I want a man who wants to be a man.

I want a man who wants to make me a priority,

who wants to take care of me, protect me, that I can rely on,

that I can depend on.

That's what I want.

[Michal speaking]

[exhales sharply]

Look, Laura, I --

I really appreciate our relationship.

One of the first days you met me...

[crying]

[sobs]

[somber music playing]

[Laura] I understand that.

I do.

And yet, you're saying we have an expiration date.

You said you'd never leave.

I think that Michal's past traumas have really created

this self-fulfilling prophecy where he just is so afraid

to let people get close.

I really was trying to give him a chance to say

how he really truly felt. And he almost did.

But I don't think Michal will ever admit how he really feels.

Part of me worries that I could be choosing the wrong guy.

But I deserve to be fully loved by someone.

And Birkan is offering that to me.

I'm just hoping that I don't have to lose my friendship

with Michal in order to be with Birkan.

If it came down to a choice...

I really don't know what I would do.

[Emma speaking]

I got some texts from Ziad when I got off the plane.

They're making me a little anxious now.

Am I gonna get there to everything he's been

saying to me is just...

gonna change and be different?

It's been seven years.

I'm ready to go all the way and beyond.

I might have to stay there longer

and help Sheena out more.

It's only a couple months.

No.

[dramatic music playing]

This -- no!

Tha -- this is -- this is bull malarkey.

It's total bull malarkey.

Who suggested you staying over there longer?

-Who? -Me and Sheena talked

about it briefly. -Oh!

But I believe it'd be beneficial on my own.

-That just makes no sense! -It makes perfect sense to me.

If she can't do things by herself and it's hard,

it's difficult to get a visa,

why not have me there?

Hard and difficult because why?

Because her parents are putting the roadblocks

in every single thing. Oh, oh, oh.

It's her parents doing that.

Yeah, but I'm going to remove her parents from it,

and I'm going to be in the driver's seat.

-You're not. -[Forrest] Then I won't have

to stay there longer. -No, no, no, no.

I'm not surprised at my mom's reaction,

but she does not have that control over me.

I am an adult, I am my own man, and I will make my own path.

No matter what my mom says, I will do what I have to do

to rescue Sheena.

Her parents, they will just get you under,

if they have her under her thumbs already,

they're gonna put you under their thumbs,

and you will be across the world from me,

and I can't protect you.

Once you get over there, she's gonna keep you over there.

She's going to say, "Forrest, it's so wonderful.

It's so great here."

And then when the nookie scene gets into it, Forrest,

then all bets are off, because once you have had

that nam, nam...

Then I know you're gonna even be more

that you're not gonna wanna leave that.

I know that.

Oh, god.

This is like my worst nightmare.

Forrest, wants to be a independent grown man

and make all these grownly adult decisions.

But the last time he was left to his own devices,

before he met Sheena, Forrest was scammed by a girl

in Indonesia.

He was sending her all of his money,

everything that he made.

He went to meet her by himself, and it fell apart.

That's especially a reason why I wanted to go with Forrest

over there because he can be taken advantage of.

I failed to keep him safe the last time,

and I cannot let that happen again.

Just please, let's just agree that when we get over...

[Forrest] I'll keep my mind open.

I will see if this is going well or not,

and then we'll talk about me staying there longer or not.

that I am flying to Morocco to meet my future husband, Ziad.

I know that Izzi and Zach have their doubts, but I'm just

really ready for something positive in my life.

I kind of can't believe that I'm going, like, right now.

Yeah, I can't believe you're going either.

[Emma] I love Morocco, though.

Maybe I just don't have to come home.

-Um, no. -And I can just, like, move and become,

like, a Moroccan princess. -Emma, come on.

[Emma] I mean, I have, like, nothing holding me back.

-Why? -What do you mean?

I actually got fired.

-What? -You got fired?

-Yes, yesterday. -What?

-Are you OK? -[Emma] No.

Like, I've been, like, so upset about it.

-Like, I left work crying. -Why didn't she say anything?

Because, like, you know, I was leaving for this trip,

and I didn't want it to affect my trip.

I got fired yesterday.

Basically, there was a situation with my old best friend

who I work with, and another girl

that we work with made, like, an inappropriate

comment to her.

I didn't wanna, like, get in trouble for the situation,

so I told HR that I wasn't there,

um, when I was.

And so I got fired for withholding information.

[Izzi] Wait, so what are you gonna do about money now?

Do you even think it's smart to still go?

Yeah, I'm still going.

I'm not gonna let this, like, ruin my trip.

I've saved so much money to make this happen.

I'm not gonna, like, not go on the trip.

I know you saved money just to, like, get out there,

but now you're not gonna have any money when you go,

and he's expecting you to pay for everything.

Ziad is a nurse, and I know he doesn't make a lot of money,

so I offered to pay for a rental in Marrakesh.

I'm a very generous person.

I feel like a lot of guys in my past

have taken advantage of that,

but a lot of them didn't even have a job.

So, Ziad is different, and hopefully when

I'm in Morocco, he'll understand and be OK with me not paying

for every single thing.

[Zach] Oh, my legs.

[Izzi] I'm only grabbing one suitcase.

Let's go.

[Emma] Off to Morocco.

[Izzi] Emma, these are, like, so heavy.

[Emma] I know. I figured, like,

one suitcase a week, and then the carry-on stuff is,

like, all of my makeup, so...

I love you, too. I'm gonna miss you.

-[Izzi mumbles] -I'm gonna miss you, too.

Let me know when you get through security, OK?

[Emma] I will.

-All right, love you, guys. -[Izzi] Love you.

Bye.

OK, we are about to go through security.

I can't believe that this has finally come.

I can't wait to see my boyfriend

and to be in person for the first time.

I'm getting excited.

We are in Paris. I have a two-hour layover.

And I got some texts from Ziad when I got off the plane.

They're making me a little anxious now.

You know, everything's been fine,

and now I don't know how to feel.

I wasn't really worried about anything, and I was so,

like, happy and excited to get to Morocco, and now I'm just

starting to think, like,

am I gonna get there?

Everything he's been saying to me is just...

gonna change and be different

than what he's been telling me on the phone?

I'm getting stressed out now.

It was about five days where I didn't hear from her.

When she did eventually start talking to me, she had,

like, some excuse that she was dealing with the police.

[Meika] Huh?

[Rick] But I don't know if I believe her.

In my experience, when someone disappears like that,

it's because they're hiding something.

Maybe the ex is more involved than you think.

♪♪

[Meika] So these are the mild ones.

So you're gonna take yours and slice 'em down the back.

I left halftime, and the Lakers were up

on Oklahoma for about 27 points, man.

OKC, KFC, UFC, Lakers in five.

Anybody home?

-Hey! -Oh!

Look who finally showed up!

[indistinct]

Where you want me to put this?

-[Meika] In the kitchen. -[Rick] OK.

In less than a week, I'll be going to Madagascar to meet

my amazing girlfriend, Trish, in person for the first time.

What you got on this grill, man?

[Rick] OK. Give me one of those, man.

My sister's having a barbecue, and she's invited

some of the family members over.

What's up, Dougie?

-How you doing, man? -How you doing?

All right. What you doing over here?

Playing some dominoes, waiting for some food,

maybe some drinks, something going on.

My family, we're close. We get together.

We sit around and talk, gossip, and, you know, find out

what the latest news is on each other.

[Rick] Yeah, yeah, I thought you knew Mom-mom played.

-She played with all of us. -[Doug] Oh, really?

She never did play with me. Never did learn.

-[Dougie] Are you serious? -[Rick] Man.

How you Black and don't know how to play dominoes?

-I know, huh? -[Rick chuckles]

You guys playing for money?

I ain't got no money, you know.

How many we have to pick out? Seven?

That's what I thought.

[Meika] So when are you leaving?

[Rick] In the next few days.

You know, I've been having these dreams

for the last few years.

And the vision that I'm seeing is exactly like Trish.

[Meika] So that's it? You're convinced

she's the one you wanna marry?

I mean,

I was, but...

a few weeks ago, she's done some things that's

kind of made me question it.

Like what?

[Rick] Uh...

it was about five days where I didn't hear from her.

She wasn't calling and barely texting.

[Rick] It went from 100 to maybe two,

because she would give me, like, one-word replies,

very seldom.

When she did eventually start talking to me, she had, like,

some excuse that her brother wrecked her motorcycle,

and she was dealing with the police.

At the same time, the police was called

on her because her ex-boyfriend had accused her of robbing

his family's house.

[Meika] Huh?

[Doug] You know, that's a bad sign.

[Rick] She said the whole thing was a misunderstanding

and that she cleared her name,

but still, something doesn't seem right.

That all sounds very suspicious.

I mean, if that was the truth, that's no reason to stop

speaking to someone.

You know, it's not like you were locked up in jail

and you couldn't get to your phone.

The situation, it worries me.

They're so far away from each other

that anything can be going on.

I mean, my first thought was I thought there, you know,

another dude involved, you know, obviously.

Maybe the ex is more involved than you think.

That's really a possibility.

[Rick] The situation where Trish ghosted me for five days,

it made me lose trust in her.

And when it comes to Trish's ex-boyfriend, I don't think

that she would go back with him.

But he has money, and that makes me insecure

because I'm not in a position to be spoiling her like that.

You know, I'm on a budget.

And in my experience, when someone

disappears like that,

it's because they're hiding something.

Did you ask her, "Were you with someone else, or...?"

Yeah, I kept asking her.

And she was in total denial that that's what was happening.

Things are going more in the right direction

with her right now.

But I have a lot of questions for her.

Get out there, you need to clear the air with her.

Find out if anything actually happened,

because it's all speculation.

I do need to get down to the bottom of those five days

when Trish was ghosting me.

But there's a little bit more to the story.

When I wasn't hearing from Trish, something happened

that she has no idea about.

Sometimes you make choices

that stay with you,

and this one's been haunting me.

[Emma] I mean, it's just like a weird thing to wait

until I get here to say.

[Emma] No, you didn't.

No.

You never said that before.

I'm so confused, I don't know what to do.

It feels like he's been lying to me this whole time.

Yeah.

When I see Emma in the first time in social media,

I see she was so perfect.

She was so gorgeous in her pictures.

I sent her first message, "Hello, wifey!"

And she answered me quickly.

It's like girls, they like to listen these words.

Yeah.

[Emma] Ah! I'm here!

What is wrong with my...

OK.

So I have to find this parking lot.

I'll find it.

I don't know why he couldn't have met me here.

Oh!

I don't know if I could take this cart.

OK.

All right, this is gonna be fun.

Let's see,

That should help.

OK.

We'll make it work.

OK.

There we go.

We're on the move.

I'm really excited to finally be here and to see Ziad,

but I'm totally thrown off by the text messages

that he sent me while I was on the plane.

It wasn't like a sweet check-in.

He kind of -- it was more like a demand.

Oh!

And, I just, I'm so confused. I don't know what to do.

But I'm just hoping for the best.

Oh!

Oh, no. Oh, no!

Sorry.

Oh, my God. This is so crazy.

Thank you, babe.

Hi, babe.

I can't believe this day has come, 'cause it's been,

like, so much, like, anticipation that it feels

kind of, like, unreal.

Yeah.

I think you look perfect and handsome.

Aw!

What about my boobs?

Sorry.

He doesn't want me to talk sexual.

I do respect your religion, but how many times have I said,

"Can we do anything in public?" You were like,

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine, it's fine."

And then I was on the plane, and we were texting.

I mean, it's just like a weird thing to wait

until I get here to say.

-I remember I say it before. -No, no, you didn't.

No. You never said that before.

Wait, so am I allowed to kiss you in the airport?

Yeah, but aren't there, like, weird rules about, like...

No, no, no.

I don't wanna mess up my makeup.

So you're not gonna kiss me anymore?

OK.

I feel really pissed off, and I feel really blindsided.

Leading up to me coming to Morocco,

all of our conversations have been how much we want each other

and how much we love each other and can't wait to touch

each other and be all over each other.

But to be standing next to him and he's telling me to my face,

"No, I won't touch you, no, I won't kiss you."

Why are you choosing right now to tell me all of this?

I'm just really upset.

I don't know what is wrong with him.

It feels like he's been lying to me this whole time.

I've heard a lot of things about you.

And I have evidence there are other girls.

This is you, isn't it?

[Birkan] Why is he here?

You can't just barge into my apartment

and hug my girlfriend.

[Ziad speaking]

I was working on myself.

Is this an act for me?

I can't be with someone who is going to constantly lie to me.

It -- it really hurts me deep in the core.

I'm taking all of my money out of the machine.

I'm doing everything I can possibly do,

and you can't even be on my side.

-You crossed the line. -I don't care.

I have nothing left to say to you.

Don't be a [bleep] asshole.

I can just sit here and get my feet done.

Rick, you lie so much.

-You lie. -But then now that we,

we've met, and we -- -Shut up, please shut up!

I'm really upset. Why am I doing this again?
