01x02 - Dating

[bunniefuu]

[funky drumming plays]

[Thando] It's the best film ever made.

[Simon] It's old, it's dated.

It pretends to be about hip-hop,

but actually it's about a couple

who we know are going

to get together anyway.

Talking a lot.

Who doesn't like Brown Sugar?

- You know what I mean?

- Baby girl.

That film taught me about falling in love.

- My love, you were what, ten years old?

- [scoffs]

Come on, who falls in love

at ten years old?

- This one is called Strike One.

- [laughs]

Why do I feel like you're using

my non-existent love life

to name your c*ck, bro?

I am absolutely using

your non-existent love life

to name my c*ck

because you make it so easy.

[chuckles] Whatever.

What about friendships, then?

Men and women were never

supposed to be friends.

Someone's always gonna wanna have sex.

I live with my best friend.

- He's ugly.

- He's not ugly.

- Baby mama drama?

- No.

Or maybe he likes boys.

No!

This one is called

Friends Without Benefits.

- [cackles] This is your best one yet.

- [laughs]

You got any cash on you?

I don't think so. Why?

How are you going to pay

for your share of the popcorn?

[scoffs incredulously] Wow. Okay, um

You know what, sweetheart,

I'm done here, okay? Good night.

- Jeez!

- Whoa, hang on a second.

What exactly were you expecting?

What exactly was What

What I was expecting

is to not have to pay

for a small box of popcorn

after buying you an entire film ticket,

and then having a debate

on whether love exists or not

with a filmmaker who's never even

made a film before

and probably still lives with his mom.

You don't

Wow. Okay. Okay.

So, Thando, you have my number, right?

You'll send me an eWallet?

[Thando] Ah, f*ck that eWallet.

You're such a bore.

[kisses teeth] Geez.

[soulful funky music plays]

I'm gonna add this to my list.

I just can't.

Thando, whoa. Relax.

Twenty days. You're still single,

and there's only 20 days.

We need to put in some work here.

If there's one thing my mother taught me

as a psychologist,

it's that you need to download Bumble.

Your mother never taught you that.

You're absolutely right, but she said

you need to learn to be uncomfortable.

Yeah, well, bro, I

I like being comfortable, please.

Thando, you're 30 and single,

and there aren't any buttons

on your pants.
