It's giving me the fire ♪
Calling me a liar ♪
'Cause I'm into… ♪
[Natalie] Hello!
-[Nick] Hello hello!
-[all] Hello!
Everyone's looking stunning.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
How are we feeling?
-Great!
-Excited!
-Yeah? Happy to be out of the woods?
-[all] Yes!
A big congratulations
to all of our new couples.
[all cheering]
Now it's time to take things
to the next level
as you'll all move in together…
[light chuckling]
…and begin to ask the tough questions.
Is someone willing
to move across the country?
-Hi.
-Is a promise ring enough?
Or do you want more?
It's not enough, babe.
[Jorge chuckling]
And perhaps the biggest question of all.
How does age factor in
to all of those big life decisions?
[Nick] But this is also your time
to have fun,
grow closer, and really ask yourselves,
"Do we see a future together?"
Or do you take off those promise rings
and leave this experience
the same way you entered it, alone?
Oh.
Ouch. [chuckles]
-[group murmuring]
-Whoa!
I'm sure there's one big question
in everyone's mind.
Everyone's actual ages.
Well, I'll see ya.
[all chuckling]
Remember, everyone, we are 18 years apart,
so you're in safe… safe zone, you know?
[all chuckling]
I think I would love to start
with John and Theresa.
I knew it.
Why don't you two share your ages?
[tense music playing]
-Um, I am proud to be 54.
-[gasps]
-[Leah] Yeah!
-[Andrew] Wow. Let's go.
[Leah] Way to go, girl.
-[Vanessa] Yeah, Theresa.
-You're looking good. Dope.
-[chuckling]
-I am 27.
Whoo!
[chuckling]
Whoo!
Like, whoo! My friends would be like,
"What you doing?"
I was like, "I don't know anymore.
We're here, though." [chuckling]
That's not my life. Um, no offense.
-[Vanelle] I thought you were much older.
-Have you guys done the math?
Yeah, he's half my age.
-27 years apart.
-Yeah, 27.
Okay.
So did that finding out the age,
stir any issues up?
Or do you feel like y'all have…
y'all are good?
So I was definitely shocked
when he told me his age. [laughs]
I kind of wish that we could, like,
go back to, like, not knowing
each other's age for a little bit.
-Why?
-[Theresa] Um…
You know, I worry that it changes
your perception of someone
once you know their age.
Um, I also think, like,
an older woman with a younger guy
is not so accepted socially yet.
Um, I think it's getting there.
But the bottom line
is that we have connected,
and we just really enjoy
each other's company.
So, yeah, we're gonna see this out,
learn more about each other.
What matters is your guys' connections.
The judgments of the outside world…
You know, they're…
they're not welcome inside your home.
Yeah.
All right, Derrick and Pfeifer.
-All right. Am I going first?
-Yeah.
[Leah chuckling]
-Go ahead.
-I'm 23.
-Oh, good job.
-Wow.
And I'm 43.
-Dang!
-[all exclaiming, cheering]
[Pfeifer chuckling]
Yes. I knew it.
-Twenty years.
-Twenty years. Yep.
-I thought he was, like, 30.
-Derrick and I moisturize.
[all chuckling]
-How are y'all feeling?
-I mean, for me, it--
Our, you know, connection,
that wasn't gonna change
from knowing her age.
I was probably just more surprised
that she actually has had
the experience she's had at,
you know, at such an early age.
But, I mean, the connection was there,
so I wasn't gonna allow age
to take away from what we
already started and continue to grow.
[Pfeifer] Yeah, that sums it up.
I like Derrick for who he is,
not for anything surrounding his age.
Um, so, yeah, I was like, oh cool.
Good to know, I guess.
Like, you're pretty much double my age,
but right on.
-Then… Yeah.
-Throw that one in there. It's fine.
Hey, you look great. You look fantastic.
Um, but, yeah, I'm not too concerned.
-Okay, we love the confidence.
-Always.
All right. Andrew and Libby.
I'm 22.
[dramatic sting]
Thirty-eight.
Oh!
Damn.
What?
-Sixteen years apart?
-[scattered cheering]
-Yeah.
-Sixteen.
Sixteen.
What was the first thing that crossed
your mind when you found out Libby's age?
That she was closer to my oldest daughter
in age than she was to me.
-Okay.
-How old is your oldest daughter?
-She's 14.
-[Natalie] 14.
[Vanelle] Wow.
Are you more taken back
that he has a 14-year-old daughter
or that he's close to 40?
Both of those things
threw me off a little bit,
but it didn't really scare me too bad.
I just was shocked.
All right. Chris and Leah.
I am 26.
[dramatic sting]
All right, guys, you ready?
Forty-one.
-What?
-[all exclaiming]
Wow! Damn, you look good.
I've got to start doing better skin care.
-[Libby] Seriously.
-Oh my God.
I'm so sure this whole time that
Leah is in her thirties, young thirties.
She just has this, like, buoyant energy,
and then she said she's in her forties,
and like, these people in their forties,
they're killing the game.
-[Natalie] Chris.
-Ah. [exhales]
What was your first opinion
when hearing Leah's age?
-I was absolutely shocked. Not gonna lie.
-You were shocked?
To hear the word--
the number four first, I was like, okay.
[Leah chuckling]
Um, I was shocked, but,
you know, like, perception is reality.
So in the end of the day,
we perceive each other with no age gap,
and… and we got to know each other.
Now that we have the age gap,
I honestly don't feel
like anything's changed.
I really don't,
and that's a beautiful thing.
-So I'm very excited for this next step.
-Better not change. [laughs]
All right, Logan and Vanessa.
-Go ahead.
-I'm 49.
-What?
-And I am 29.
-Dude. Okay.
-Oh!
Holy shit.
I don't know how old I thought he was,
but it wasn't that.
How are you feeling now?
I mean, I feel okay.
How do you feel? [laughs]
I feel-- I feel good. I'm excited.
I'm excited to learn more about her
and have fun.
We had some tough conversations
early on, right?
You know, you go into the retreat
not worrying about age, and…
It's something I brought up early, right?
So it was kind of
a little rough patch, but…
Um, we had some serious conversations,
and I'm looking forward
to having some fun. So…
Did you say you brought up age early?
-Yeah. I did.
-You did.
He was concerned about it.
[spluttering] I was just--
-But he was being honest.
-Okay.
I took it the wrong way,
and at the end of the day,
I feel like he was being honest
about his feelings
instead of just coming in like, yeah,
everything's sunshine and roses, y'know?
So I feel like because we got
the hard things out of the way first,
now it's time for us to enjoy
and have fun.
-[Libby] Yes!
-Yes, we made it.
All right, Jorge and Vanelle.
-Certainly last but not least.
-Oh man, it's not gonna be least.
[all chuckling]
I'm 27.
All right.
So I'm 35 plus 25. I'm 60.
-[Leah] What?
-Wow.
-What?
-[Logan] There is no fucking way.
There's no fucking way, dude.
Jorge, 60?
Damn, like I did not see that coming.
I didn't know
there were 60-year-olds here.
-[Natalie] What is that--
-[Vanessa] Thirty-three.
-Thirty-three.
-[Pfeifer] Dang!
-[Leah] You win.
-Thirty-three.
-[Leah] Okay.
-[Andrew] Damn.
-[Leah] They win…
-What?
Vanelle, how surprised were you
when you heard his age?
I was shocked because I thought
he was, like, in his forties.
-But he is fine, so I'm not mad at it.
-Thank you, dear. Thank you.
-Tell 'em. Tell 'em, tell 'em.
-[all laughing]
You all found each other,
and that is the most amazing thing.
Right now you're here, you're together,
but will you wanna leave this experience
as a couple?
That's a question you'll have to answer
at the commitment ceremony.
Oh.
[dramatic sting]
[Libby] Am I afraid of commitment?
Maybe. Am I afraid
of commitment ceremonies?
Yes.
You all found love
without knowing anyone's age.
-[Logan] Yeah!
-So give yourselves a toast.
And good luck.
-Enjoy your time together.
-[excited chatter]
-I love you.
-I love you.
[Logan] Cheers to ageless dating, right?
-[Derrick] Whoo!
-[Jorge] Yeah!
[upbeat music playing]
[music fades]
[funky music playing]
Ooh. Home sweet home.
-[Libby] I like that.
-Yeah.
[Libby chuckling]
Oh yay.
Super cozy.
-[chuckling]
-[Andrew] This is super, super cozy.
It's real--
-Yeah.
-I think my suitcase is bigger than…
-The bed, perhaps. Yeah.
-Than the bed.
This entire experience has been a bubble,
but then moving in together
makes it a little bit more real.
[chill music playing]
Don't worry,
you can borrow my curling iron.
-I know you were concerned about that.
-Don't put anything on my shelves.
[chuckling] I won't. Oh my gosh.
I definitely think it's going to…
to challenge us living together.
Like, are we on the same wavelength?
Like, is she someone
that I can see introducing to my kids?
You know, that's…
That's a lot to digest,
but every day that I spend with her,
I feel like I'm falling
a little bit more for her,
and I…
I do think
that she could be my forever person.
Um, so what's…
What's the bedroom situation looking like?
Um, well… It's looking good for me.
[music stops]
-Um…
-[Libby laughing]
Are you bringing…
are you bringing a friend?
I… I guess you could maybe be invited
if you act correctly.
-Okay.
-[Libby] Yeah.
-I think I can do that.
-Okay.
-I feel like you've done good so far.
-I try.
You earned a pass to sleep in the bed
and not the couch, I guess.
For one night.
One night. Okay.
-I'll take it.
-Yeah, say thank you.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
Oh my gosh. Aren't I so kind?
[lighthearted music playing]
I think we're gonna be fine.
I'm honestly not that nervous.
I feel like we're both just…
I mean, you're not chill, but I'm chill.
-Yeah.
-And I'm just very go with the flow.
So I think, like,
I'll be able to tolerate… this.
Aww.
That's the sweetest thing
a guy's ever said to me.
-You're so sweet.
-I know. I told you I'm a lover.
Aww.
Thank you. You're so kind.
I love when you say you tolerate me.
That's very sweet.
[both laughing]
[upbeat music playing]
-[Vanelle] Cheers.
-Cheers.
[glasses clinking]
[Jorge] To a new beginning.
-To a new beginning, baby.
-[both chuckle]
How do you feel?
-I'm glad we're finally here.
-[Vanelle] Me too.
You know what I mean?
We finally get our own alone time.
It's like we can talk about all the things
we wanna talk about. We can have fun.
'Cause, you know, our connection's dope,
but we gotta still talk.
'Cause I know
there's some things we were talking about.
You were talking about your sister.
I wanna hear about this.
-You're the youngest of five.
-I'm the youngest of five, yeah.
I have two older brothers
and two older sisters.
So what are your brothers gonna think?
My brothers, I don't think
they're gonna care, actually.
-Really?
-Yeah.
I don't think they're gonna care
that much.
It's just my other middle sister
that might be more shocked
and might be a little bit uneasy about it.
But ultimately,
I think they're just gonna…
As long as, like, they know
you treat me right, they'll love you.
So, all right.
You have a kind of an understanding
of how your family feels?
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. What about you?
My family are all,
if you like them, then I love them.
They know I don't bring…
That's not something I…
I don't bring anyone around my family
that I'm not serious about.
But here's the thing
that we haven't talked about.
-Okay.
-I have children.
[inhales deeply]
And I see your face.
Does that bother you? What's going on?
Like, I mean, I guess, like,
we were in the Promise Room and stuff
and you brought up kids and stuff,
but then you didn't say that you had kids.
Well, to be honest with you,
I didn't think it was the time.
That day, the most important thing
was the age difference.
'Cause if you can handle
the age difference,
me having children has nothing to do
with anything, I didn't think
Well, just like you said to me
in the Promise Room
when I was bringing up, like,
my celibacy and stuff.
I was just very much
a little bit angsty about it and worried.
And you were just basically like,
"You should have told me this earlier."
"There's nothing we can't talk about."
That's how I feel about
the kid thing too, right now.
I'm not afraid
to bring up anything to you. I'm not.
Believe me, I'm not.
I wasn't trying to avoid anything from you
because they're very important to me.
-Mm-hmm.
-You know what I mean?
And obviously,
their ages are closer to your age.
I mean, my daughter
is basically the same age.
And my son, he's 23.
[Vanelle] Mmm.
[Jorge] My daughter, she will definitely
side-eye. Because she's--
My daughter is very, like your family,
very protective of me.
So how are your relationship
with your kids' mothers?
Good. Cordial. Cordial.
Now, are we friends? Best friends? No.
I mean, it's, you know…
-But you, like, get along.
-Yes. It's very cordial.
So how important is, like,
having more kids to you?
Like, would you be okay
if you never have more kids?
If I never have more kids, it'd be because
I'm never in a serious relationship.
So you do want more kids?
If I'm in a serious relationship.
And, like, let's say for instance,
let's say you and I got together.
You said, "Jorge, I don't want kids…"
-Okay. Be--
-Oh, you'd be okay with that?
Yeah. Because…
The most important thing to me
is the person that I'm with.
So if I come upon someone
who I genuinely connect with,
I'm gonna explore it to the utmost because
I wanna find a woman who…
Those are the last eyes I see
before I close mine, you know.
That is the epitome of a real love, right?
Do you think you can have that with me?
I can have it with you.
I know I can have it with you, babe.
-Do you believe it?
-I do.
I honestly thought he didn't have kids.
So I was just very surprised by that.
And it's not an issue that he has kids.
Like, I'm totally fine with it.
But I just don't want it to feel like
he's, like, keeping things from me.
I feel like he should've known,
who I am and the type of person that I am,
that it would be okay.
[brooding pop music playing]
[chuckling] I wanna
share something with you.
-Oh, you do?
-Yeah.
[both chuckling]
[Pfeifer] Oh my God, this is adorable.
[Derrick] Yeah, I like that smile.
-This is the cutest thing in the world.
-Yeah.
[Derrick chuckling softly]
[Pfeifer] Do you feel like when you
had him, you were ready for children?
Yeah, so I think,
honestly, to a certain degree,
you can never be completely ready.
-Right.
-Because every kid's, like, different.
-So you just, like…
-Right.
You gotta just roll with the punches,
you know,
because you're… you're trying to balance,
like, so much. Right?
And so for me, it was like…
Whether at that point,
like a relationship,
being a father and, like, career, it was--
I just had to understand that,
okay, some days
you're gonna suck at something.
You just gotta accept it.
Like, it's no way you can be all three.
But just make sure you don't suck
at the same thing all the time in a row.
-That's a good point, a great point.
-Yeah.
-Yeah. So.
-Yeah.
I've never dated anybody
who has had children before.
And I think being a stepparent or
being involved with somebody's children,
you can still have a great impact.
It means a lot
to do a good job in that role.
But I don't have any experience of my own.
And I haven't been around people
who have kids very often.
I wanna continue
going forward with Derrick.
And I… I am committed to him.
These are questions,
and these are challenges that'll come up.
I would be lying
if I said I wasn't anxious.
[Derrick] It's okay.
[Derrick groaning]
-Oh, I've been waiting for this.
-Yeah, this is nice.
-[Pfeifer] Mmm.
-Yeah.
I didn't tell you you have pretty eyes.
-Thank you. You said that many times.
-I know. Well…
-I'll say it a few more.
-I'll take it.

We're taking over the party ♪
Bring in that mash up
Killing it like karate ♪
[Leah] You know I'm still mad at you.
I never wanna be surprised
about something you've done.
Because at the end of the day,
I came here with you
and not to be or feel alone.
And I was very alone and-- In that moment.
I apologize for everything
about the situation.
The fact that
I didn't bring it up right away.
We clicked. And after a couple days,
I was like, should I bring this up?
And it was back and forth in my mind.
And I decided not to.
'Cause I just thought that'd be
a better decision. Clearly it wasn't.
Yeah. I just think, for me,
I wish you would've said something.
So I would've been,
"Oh no, he connected with someone."
"He did share a moment, a kiss."
Then I'm like, "All right, cool, I know."
I will say once we were in communication,
there was no communication with her.
It's just a mistake. It's a mistake.
I am upset at myself for allowing this
to even be a thing today.
It's kind of like
the honeymoon phase was the retreat.
We already passed the honeymoon phase.
It's too bad
that that was how we started this.
His immaturity
definitely showed a little bit.
[pensive music playing]
I want someone who can come to me,
who feels a safe space in-- with me,
like his partner.
And when he couldn't, it hurt.
I'm not gonna keep wasting time
on people who can't communicate well.
You literally place such a big thing
on communicating and being consistent.
That's why I was like, dope,
I got a communicator. I'm doing great.
Then all of a sudden this happens
and I'm, like, blindsided,
like in front of people.
It just… It hurt.
-It did.
-I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry, honestly.
["Give Me X's And O's"
by Nine One One playing]
All this to ourselves.
-This is nice.
-[Logan] How does it feel?
-[Vanessa] Amazing. Uh-huh.
-[Logan] Good?
So let's say we have, like,
an amazing two weeks here, okay?
We have an amazing two weeks.
We have this beautiful connection.
And we're like,
we want to explore this further.
-Yeah.
-What would that look like for us?
Like, you go back to Dallas.
I go back to Ohio.
Like, could you see this working out?
Like, we could continue
to have a long-distance relationship?
I mean, long-distance is hard, right?
I mean, obviously, like, distance…
The issue for me would be, like, trust.
I know you're gonna
wanna go out with your friends.
-You're gonna wanna, like, do things.
-Yeah.
I just would have to know, like,
I can trust you.
-That you're not, like…
-Yeah.
…going on dates with other girls
or bringing girls back to your house.
Would you actually be worried about that?
-Yes! I would be worried about that.
-[laughs]
-I mean, I feel like--
-Wow.
Have you been cheated on before?
Yes, I have.
-That's big for me, like…
-Yeah.
'Cause the minute
you compromise somebody's trust.
Yeah, you have to know,
that's like a scary thing.
-Like…
-That's fair.
I just would have to know
I could just trust you.
-Yeah.
-Like, would you trust me?
-Yeah. I would hope.
-Oh, I love that.
Okay, so let's say that this does work out
and we do the long-distance thing.
Would you tell your friends how old I am?
[Logan scoffing]
-Can we just lie and say I'm 39?
-Yeah, or we don't have to lie.
-Just own it.
-Really?
I love that you said that.
That was so cute.
I love that you're smart enough
to know the right answers.
[Logan chuckling]
-I think I've learned my lesson.
-Even if you don't mean it.
-I appreciate that you're saying that.
-Was that a good answer?
That was a good answer. Okay?
You think they'd make fun of you?
[Logan] Maybe. I don't know.
I don't think they would.
I mean, maybe.
They might say something, but like…
Should I… How much Botox should I get
before I come?
-Shut up. You don't need anything.
-[laughs] Should I get lip filler? Like…
Do you like girls with that?
-No.
-Okay.
-Am I annoying you asking these questions?
-No, your concerns are valid.
And they're sweet,
and it makes you look like
a little innocent…
-Needy?
-…sweet little girl.
-Am I worrying?
-[Logan] A little too much.
-Are you worried?
-I'm not.
I was only worried when you were worried.
Yeah, that was like a week ago.
-Oh my gosh. It feels like a year ago.
-Two weeks ago.
-I think we're good. Okay?
-Okay.

[Vanelle] How was your night last night?
-Boring. I was not happy.
-[chuckling]
I learned a lot of things about you.
You know, the funny thing is, um,
I learned different things
from different people when I was young.
Very, very young.
Um, very involved in church, so it's like…
-That was the thing.
-So who was a pastor?
-Your mom, your dad?
-[Jorge] My dad.
-Your dad?
-Mm-hmm.
But my mother and my father,
they separated when I was five.
So I kind of grew up with my mom,
you know?
-And she was everything, always will be.
-Mm-hmm.
-I have voicemails of her in my phone.
-Oh, really?
Voicemails of her in my phone
that I still listen to.
Me and my father's relationship,
not so much.
-We didn't have a great relationship.
-Why?
Because he… He just wasn't around.
But you know, my mother,
the one thing I give to her
is that she would never,
no disrespect towards my father, never.
-Mm-hmm.
-And I think that's important.
That's why I am like I am now.
Any woman that was ever in my life,
I'm not gonna speak negative
about her. Just not.
So…
Do you think that separating and stuff
affected your dating life?
Um, no. I don't think they played a part.
I think that I'm a grown man.
I made my own decisions, you know.
And whatever decisions
that I made in my life,
I'll live with them, you know what I mean?
[Vanelle] Mm-hmm.
What's funny is,
because I'm so much older than you,
I should have like thousands
of more relationships, but I didn't.
Because I had several
long-term relationships, you know?
Really? And I haven't had
long-term relationships.
[Jorge] Really?
The longest is like, what, a year?
-A year and a half?
-Wow. Really?
-You haven't dated a lot.
-Mm-mm.
Which is really… That's not the norm.
Like, normally
if you meet someone who's 27, they--

she's been through her relations.

-Absolutely not.
How is that not--
How… how is that possible?

I know that my sister--

questioning things. I'm like, huh?
If he was just older than my oldest son,
life would be
a little bit sweeter right now. [chuckles]
-I think, like, my personal circle…
-Mm-hmm.
…they're gonna be like, "What?"
-Hu-- Huh?
-[John] Uh-huh.
In what aspect?
[birds chirping]
Um, interests.
-Not only interests.
-Well, yeah. Like, do you like--
I mean, typically, like, younger
and older people, generally speaking,
don't do, like,
the same type of activities, right?
[John] Mm-hmm.
I mean, obviously I think we both know
or, like, we're realizing
we have more in common than we do not.
[John] Mm-hmm.
Again, like being an older woman,
with a younger guy is just not something
that's like commonly seen.
So I think that's
something to just ponder
and realize that, like,
we're kind of not in the masses.
-Yeah.
-[Theresa] Right?
-Do you wanna be in the masses?
-No, I don't care.
I wanna be with someone
who I'm, like, in love with.
-[John] Yeah.
-And, you know, my point is-- is like…
…there's just gonna obviously
be repercussions because of that.
-Because we're like kind of unique…

Absolutely.

anything merits a conversation, right?
Why you're doing it?
What's the real motivation behind it?

Yeah. And I didn't, I mean, like, I--
I didn't expect it to be like that.
What did you expect?
I mean, I don't know. I was just--
I was, actually, very…
A little nervous

You know what I mean?
I wanna feel like I can't be without you.
-[Theresa] Exactly.
-It's the beginning.
That beginning phase of the relationship.
So, do you think he is just holding back,
or do you think he's, like…
Like, do you think he wants more?
Yeah, I don't know. That's where we're at.
-I'm at a point right now that I'm, like…
-[Theresa] Yeah.
Because you definitely should feel
like this person wants--
-[Vanessa] Yeah, wants me.
-Is in it. Right, exactly.
-[Vanessa] I wanna respect his journey.
-Yeah.
But I felt like,
when we arrived in Vancouver
and we were at our mixer,
like, everybody was cuddled up
and we were just, like, you know.
Kind of holding hands from afar.
So then I'm like,
is this issue that I'm having with him,
is this an age-related issue
or is this just his personality?
-So I feel like he's apprehensive.
-Exactly. If he's in his head.
Yeah. And I think there's a stigma that
people think women after a certain age,
like, oh, we're just gonna dry up
and we're not into that.
-Oh God, no.
-I'm, like, on fire.
-Like, I've been ready to explode.

-If it was me and I was in your shoes…

-Maybe tonight's the night.
-That's what I'd do.
Obviously, you deserve

when do you make that decision
to say, "Okay, enough is enough."

like, I can't move forward with this."

How old were you
when you were playing soccer here?
Twenty-one.
When that didn't work out,
it was, like, a huge letdown?
Or was it just kind of like,
okay, I'll revert now?
Like, all I ever wanted to do growing up
was play soccer.
I didn't care about my grades.
My grades were just to get me through
so that I could continue to play soccer.
Like, it was soccer, soccer, soccer.
Like, that's all I ever wanted to do.
I think what messed me up

my dad.
I know that he was so disappointed
without-- and he would never say it to me.
But, like, I feel still to this day

Yeah, that's hard.
But I think a lot of people
probably disappoint their parents.

you're letting your guard down.

softer, more intentional side of you.
And I'm just like, who is this person?
And it's, I don't know,
it's really melting my heart a little bit.

And honestly, like, I--
I am really surprised.
I don't think that at 22
I would ever be able
to do something like this.
So I think it speaks to,
you know, the woman that you are.
Because I don't think
I would've been in the right place
to… to do something like this.
I told you I'm… I'm a little crazy.
[Andrew chuckling]
We know that.
It seems like where we're both at
in our lives at this point
is the perfect time
for us to make this relationship work.
I think I'm definitely more attracted
to the fact that he's more mature.
If I met him at 22,
from the way that he's described
himself at that age,
I don't think we would be compatible.
I love the perspective he has
due to the fact that he's older,
and he has gone through
certain experiences
that make him the person that he is today.
So this is perfect timing. [chuckling]
I have a huge, like, man crush
on Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham.
Like, I would fangirl big time
if I ever met David Beckham.
Yeah. And that's wild to me
that you don't know who his wife is.

-You don't know the Spice Girls?
I do, but, like, I couldn't name one.
Not one single Spice Girl?
No.
-That's wild.
-I know, um, TLC.
TLC, but you don't know Spice Girls?
They were like
the biggest, like, girl pop band ever.
When?
-Uh, a little while ago, but it happened.

of the Powder Puff Girls.
-Know what that is?
-No.
-Okay.
-Powder Puff?
Don't worry about it.

-That's what it sounds like.
-[dramatic sting]
[Logan] It's not that
there's a hesitation to be intimate.
I don't think that's, um,
the driving factor.
If a relationship
starts way too passionate,
way too obsessed,
I think, you know,
a flame that burns too hot too quickly
can burn out.
I'm not gonna love bomb you
because that's…
-It's fake, yeah.
-And it's manipulative.
Okay. Like,
I appreciate you respecting me,
and I appreciate, like,
your communication with me.
But I don't wanna be,
like, a two-week fling,
and then you don't wanna
talk to me anymore.
I don't wanna start developing feelings
for someone who just, like,
think this is a throwaway thing.
I don't wanna go back home
to my empty house.
I don't wanna do this all for nothing.
Like, is he the right person?
Did I pick the right person?
Or did I pick wrong again?
[dramatic music playing]
I just wanted to share with you.
And I-- I just feel like…
[dramatic sting]
[Vanessa sighing]
[brooding pop song playing]
I just wanna feel like
this is just more than a friendship.

Is this the end? ♪
Is this the final moment? ♪
Oh ♪

In the eleventh hour ♪
Where you'll take my hand ♪
Or is this the end? ♪
What if tonight is all we have? ♪
Will you choose another path? ♪
What if the end was a new beginning? ♪
Another chance, or is this the end? ♪
