[bunniefuu]

[suspenseful music playing]

So, um, do you believe
in sex before marriage?

Oh, sex before marriage.

Uh...

I don't believe in sex
be... uh, before marriage.

Oh.

I feel indifferent about that. I mean...

Indifferent?

Well, naturally,
I've never had sex before, but, um...

Well, okay, I should... Let me elaborate.

What I mean "indifferent" is, um,

I mean, I was raised Catholic.
I mean, I know, like, in the Bible,

like, it's... it's... it's strictly against
sex before marriage.

And, like, when I talked with my dad,
like, and other people about this advice,

it's, like... like, it's natural sometimes.

But no matter what species you are,

intimacy is something
people seek in a match.

You're, like, stuck
between a rock and a hard place.

Exactly.

But, you know, it's, um...

my aunt always tells me
that it's up to you.

You make the choices.
You make the decisions.

This is America.

You can. You can.

Actually, I, um...

I would be open to it as long as...
as long as both parties consent

and, like... and it's safe.
I see... I see no harm, no.

Mm-hmm. I think you're capable.

[whimsical music playing]

I think so.

Adan.

Do you feel like having a kiss?

-Of course.
-[Dani giggles]

[chuckles]

Beautiful.

Aw, thank you. [chuckles]

Such a wonderful time with you.
My gosh, this was just so romantic.

-So...
-Mm-hmm.

So magnanimous, marvelous, spectacular.

I had a wonderful time with you too, Adan.

Getting to know you and, um...

and especially, like,
um, going under the surface

of what the iceberg says.

-Would you like to share another kiss?
-Yes.

You won't believe me,

but you're the first girl
I've ever kissed,

and I consider that a... a blessing.

Thank you so much, Adan.

Thank you, Dani.

Is that an Apple Watch?

It is an Apple Watch!

[Adan] Nice!

[Dani] Mm.

One more time?

One more time.

[whimsical music continues]

[cell phone vibrating]

-[voice assistant] Dad.
-Oh, come on. Please wait, Dad.

[cell phone continues vibrating]

Not even a phone call
will break this moment.

[Dani chuckles]

[Adan] Mm-hmm.

[cell phone continues vibrating]

[dramatic music playing]

[narrator] In Georgia,

it's the morning after
Connor's teahouse date with Emily.

[Lise] Connor, will you come here?

[dramatic music stops]

[Connor] You called?

[Lise] So?

-[Connor] So?
-I'm dying to find out about yesterday.

-Oh, well...
-Can we... can we talk about it?

Sure. It was, uh...
it was pretty good. I mean...

Okay, so when you saw her, were you

attracted to her?

Well, yeah. I... I... I found her attractive.

But did you wanna think about,
like, holding her hand?

Yeah. To be honest, I actually feel
kind of embarrassed talking about it.

Okay, so we'll back off of that.
So that's cool.

At least the sparks are there.
Did you get a picture?

Oh, yes, I did.
We took a selfie by the phone box.

We didn't... we didn't go in it, mind you.

-I... Yay! Can I see it?
-[Jack] Look at the selfie.

-Well, here's the picture.
-[Lise] Let's see!

-Let me see!
-[Jack] Aww.

[Lise] Oh my gosh! I love it!

You both look so happy!

-[Jack] You clean up nice, brother.
-She looks so cu...

And she wears glasses!

Didn't you find glasses attractive?

Well... y...

Oh my gosh, you guys look so adorable.
You look like a stud muffin there.

Okay, the glasses thing, Mom,
that's kind of a sensitive subject.

Okay. I didn't know it was
a sensitive subject. I'll back off.

[Coco growling softly]

[Lise] So, were there next steps planned?

Uh...

-[Jack] Did you ask to see her again, or...
-Oh, yes! Yes, I did!

-Okay. Who asked first?
-[Connor] Uh...

Well, uh,

she did.

-Oh my gosh. So she really liked you.
-[Jack] That's good!

Here's something we have in common.

She has a shih tzu, too, named Ben,

as in Ben Kenobi!

Oh, that's wild.

[Lise] Okay!
That's awesome 'cause Chewie...

[Connor] He's named after Chewbacca.

That is so cool
that she has a dog, a shih tzu,

and named after a Star Wars character.

-Yeah. She seems perfect for you.
-Where has this girl been all your life?

[in Italian] Where have you been
all my life?

-[Lise in English] That.
-Yeah.

Maybe on your next date,

you can take the dogs out
and do a little dog playdate.

-[Lise gasps]
-Oh yeah!

[Lise] Chewie and Ben?

Oh man, when do we get to meet her?

-[Connor] Uh...
-Am I rushing?

-A bit.
-[Lise] All right.

I'm just excited for you.

-[Jack] Awesome.
-Oh, well, there we go.

Why didn't you lock that door?

[Lise] Well, because he has a right
to come into his own house! He's thirsty.

[gentle music playing]

[June] I think where you're going
is kind of fancy.

You might wanna wear pants
to look a little nicer.

Oh, but I had to wear pants yesterday!
I was hoping to wear the shorts today!

-Are you gonna wear underwear instead?
-No. I want to... I want to wear these.

Just think. Millions of people
are gonna be watching you.

They're gonna say,
"Wow. Doesn't he look good in pants?"

[James sighs] Yes.

[sighs]

Damn it! All right.

[June] She was a...

[James] Oh, excuse me.

Yes. A teach... That looks better.

[James groans]

No. It just looks different.

It just means now I...
it means now I have to wear sneakers.

But before,
I was planning to wear sandals.

So tell me more about Maggie.

She's very fond of frogs.
I'm not certain why, but she is.

When I met her, she had a shirt
with a picture of a frog on it.

It sounds like, uh,
the first date went really, really well.

She doesn't seem to have
any kind of a temper.

No, I met her only once
so it's hard to say,

but not as far as I could tell.

Seems like a nice, calming person.

I sure hope so, yeah.

'Cause, as you know,
I have a lot of energy,

so I prefer someone...

-A nice, calming influence, huh?
-[James] I sure hope so. Um... mm.

Remember before, I said
the purpose of a first date is to...

-To get a second date.
-Okay, so the purpose of a second date...

[June giggles]

-Is to get a third date.
-There you go!

-Yay! [giggles]
-I knew he'd figure it out!

Now, another possible question is food.

-Oh, yes.
-What kind of food she likes.

I do not believe I asked that last time.

-What kind of food does she like?
-That's a good question to ask.

Your mother and I have
different food likes.

[James] Oh, yes, I've noticed.

I eat healthy. Your father eats goat food.

-[giggles]
-I eat what I wanna eat.

Food doesn't matter.

-If she's a "veedge-an," doesn't matter.
-Vegan.

-What?
-[June] Vegan.

Vegan.

[Cian] Would you date a vegan, James?

I don't know. I mean...

-[June giggling]
-Ooh...

-If she's vegan, doesn't matter.
-No, it doesn't matter, honey.

Well, since Maggie likes frogs,
I... I looked, I... I...

I attempted to find a bag of gummy frogs
to share with her when I next see her.

I couldn't find them. They do make them.
They were out of stock where I looked.

But I got her
a gummy flower bouquet instead.

-Ooh!
-Yes, isn't that...

-Do you have it? Can I see it? Ooh.
-Of course, please wait a moment.

[James chuckles]

-That's awesome!
-See? Isn't that nice?

Yeah.

Aw, look at the little hearts.

-Yes, not too bad.
-That's very nice. Very nice.

-Yes, I think I'll be leaving soon.
-All right.

[whimsical music playing]

-[James] Yes.
-Hugs.

-Oh, yes.
-Gotta give you a hug.

Mm. Okay, very good.

James, there you go.

-Yes, yes, of course.
-Enjoy.

Absolutely. I shall without a question.

-Yes.
-[Lawrence] Bye-bye.

-Goodbye. Have a nice day.
-Bye. Drive safely.

[James] Yes, of course I shall.
Thank you. Yes.

[groans]

[suspenseful music playing]

[seagulls calling loudly]

[narrator] In Chicago,

Journey is about to meet Talia
for a second date.

[seagulls screeching]

[Cian] How are you feeling?

I'm nervous but excited.

I'm nervous 'cause

I'm scared I'll run out of things to say,

and I don't wanna run out
of things to say. But, yeah.

[Cian] Looking forward
to seeing Talia again?

Actually, yes.

She was very fun last time, so... mm.

[suspenseful music playing]

Hey!

[gasps] Oh my God, hi!

-How are you?
-[Talia laughing]

[Journey] It's been too long!
It's been too long!

Like, how... like, how have you been
since I last saw you?

Oh, I've been good.
Just been working. Nothing major.

[Journey] Oh, working!

It's really nice to see you again.

There's, like, snacks in here.

-[Talia] Bon appétit!
-[giggles]

Tastes good.

[Journey] So, um,

there was something else... I was gonna ask.

Have you thought about this date
since our last date?

Like, it coming up and stuff.

I think I was excited.

I was like, "I know I'mma go,
and it's gonna be a vibe."

No matter what we do,
we're gonna have a great time.

Yeah, I got, like...
I got, like, super nervous.

I know I really enjoyed our date,

but what if
something terrible happens somehow,

and I don't know.
Just anxiety and stuff like that.

I don't know. I get anxious.

I always think,
like, I'll run out of things to say

or I'll just, like,
randomly get quiet and stuff like that.

Not like there's anything wrong with that,
if you were to just randomly get quiet.

That's kinda how I am.

'Cause sometimes
I am, like, still present.

-It's just I might not talk as much.
-Yeah!

When people go, "What's wrong?"
I'm like, "Nothing."

-"I don't have anything to say!"
-"Just chilling."

-"Enjoying everyone's presence."
-Yeah, I do that all the time.

I'm always hoping
people don't think I don't like them.

-You can tell if I don't like you.
-It's okay. I know you like me.

The way you got up,
like you were on a cloud!

-You got up mad quick!
-[giggling]

-[laughing] I was like, "Wow!"
-Sorry!

No, you're okay!
I was like, "Okay, that's a good sign!"

I feel like you can read me really well.

Like, it always surprises me.
You always know what I'm, like, thinking!

I was like, "This is really weird!"

I'm not very, um, experienced in dating,

so I'm, like, always, like, nervous
that it'll go really bad 'cause I never...

I don't know how dates work,
but you make the dates, like, really fun,

and we get along really well.
And you're really funny and nice.

So I'm like, "This is really..."
I'm like, "This is working out very well!"

I appreciate that. I think
you're just as sweet, if not sweeter.

[Journey laughs]

-Sweeter than the éclairs.
-[both laugh]

-[chuckles] No, but...
-The jokes! [laughs]

But, no, you're sincerely really great,
and I had a great time.

I would like to keep pursuing things
with you, if that's okay.

Yes, that's more than okay!
Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing!

-So, should we go for a walk?
-Yeah, of course. I would love to.

-[Talia chuckles]
-[laughs loudly]

Wait. Actually, sorry,
you're already up now!

-[Talia] It's fine.
-[laughing]

I tried!

-[Talia] I appreciate you trying!
-[laughing]

Because she has... doesn't have
that much dating experience,

it's kind of moving a little slow,
I guess you could say,

but I would rather just take my time

and make sure, like, she feels comfortable
so that it can go well.

So, do you want to

hold hands, maybe?

-Yes!
-Yeah?

Of course. I would love to hold your hand.

Sorry if my hand gets, like, sweaty.

I feel like
I get, like, hand sweats when I'm nervous.

Mine are gonna get sweaty.
They're cold now, but just you wait.

Let me warm them up for you.

-Time will tell...
-Time will tell!

...if they will get sweaty and you won't
wanna hold my hand anymore. [laughs]

[both giggling]

[regal music playing]

[narrator] At the Crane Estate,

James is waiting to meet Maggie
for their second date.

How does my hair look?

[Cian] It looks good.

Good, yes. Just brushed it
in my car a moment ago.

[fly buzzing]

[high-pitched buzzing]

It just...

[buzzing]

Damn f*cking bugs!

[low-pitched droning]

I'm glad we don't have
Asian giant hornets around here.

Ooh-ooh!

I don't know.
If the climate keeps changing, we might.

[Cian] Are you hoping there's sparks,
like last time?

Yes, of course.
Obviously, I'm hoping for that.

-[Cian] Maybe another kiss?
-[chuckles] Uh...

Yes, of course. That's why I brought
those... those peppermints. Yes.

[Cian] Oh, for fresh breath.

Obviously!

Hi!

Yes, how are you doing today?

-I'm doing well. Thank you.
-[James] Good! That's great.

Yes. So I was... I remember last time,
you said you liked frogs.

So I tried to find
a bag of gummy frogs to share with you,

but I was not able to find those,

So, look, I got
a gummy bouquet of flowers though.

-Thank you!
-If you're... if you're interested.

-I mean, so they're...
-Yeah! Cool!

[James] Yes, thank you.
They're better than normal flowers.

Normal flowers look good,
you can't do anything with them.

You leave them on a vase.
They wither after a few days.

But these look good, and you can eat them.
They're emergency rations, basically.

I love them! Thank you!

-Good! Glad that you like those.
-Thanks, yeah.

Yes, okay.

-So, have you...
-Hug!

-Thank you.
-Yes, of course. You're very welcome.

-Yes, have you ever been here before?
-I haven't, no.

[James] Oh, no, neither have I.
But this is quite stunning.

-Like to look at some of these statues?
-Yeah, I'd love that!

Great. Very good.

-Let's go.
-[James] Okay.

Yes, so I'm not entirely certain
which goddess this one is

because she has a vase in one hand
and a bowl in the other,

but I'm sorry, I don't remember.

Are you well-versed in Greek mythology?

I read a few books that are
reinterpretations of the myths,

but I don't remember the gods.
All of them.

So I know that's definitely Athena, yes.

Yeah, she has the snake too.

I'll definitely presume this is Aphrodite

because, you know,
she's minimally clothed, so, yes.

Been a big fan of Greek
and Roman mythology,

but I have to admit, I am a bit rusty.
Haven't kept myself sharp in that regard.

Oh, no, it's fine.
I get them all confused in my head.

But I like mythology a lot.

Oh, good. No, I know. I do also.

Yes, and you said you like frogs.

When you were younger, did you ever read
the Frog and Toad series?

-Yeah!
-Good, yes. Mm.

I have one of those shirts that...
I don't know if you ev...

There's a meme about how, like, in China,
they made Frog and Toad shirts,

but it said, like,
"Eff the police" on them.

Ooh, interesting!

By accident.
I have one of those shirts somewhere.

It's Frog and Toad on a bike,
and then it says that.

-Uh-huh. I see.
-I like Frog and Toad a lot.

Oh wow, look at that!

-Oh, it's beautiful!
-I can't believe that. It's beautiful.

Whoever owns this place
must be fabulously wealthy.

-[Maggie] Yeah.
-Wow.

-Quite a magnificent view, isn't it?
-It is.

I definitely feel like
I'm in, like, a Disney movie,

and I'm going to give a speech
to my subjects.

[James] Oh yes. Definitely. Definitely.

If I may ask,

are you a big fan of barbecue?

Um...

I... I'm vegetarian.

Ah, okay.
That's not too bad, then, I guess.

Um, there... some scientists
are working on ways

to grow raw meat from animal cells.
Would you eat something like that?

Like lab meat?

I... I don't know.

It just seems very weird.
I wonder if I would be grossed out

'cause in general,
sometimes meat grosses me out as well.

If other people eat it,
that's totally fine.

-But...
-Ah, I see.

-I would maybe try it.
-That's not too bad.

'Cause, you know, when I was younger,
the scent of pickles would make me vomit.

Doesn't happen anymore.
The scent still turns my stomach,

but I don't vomit anymore.
I've gotten over that part, yes.

-I love pickles. That's okay though.
-Oh, I see.

[suspenseful music playing]

[narrator] In Georgia,

Connor is about to meet Emily
for a second date.

[Connor] It's, uh, pretty hot out.

I think the flowers are wilting.

-Lousy bugs!
-[buzzing]

[high-pitched buzzing]

Well, I am glad you're here, Chewie.

Just try to have fun with it, okay, buddy?

Oh! Here she...
Okay, Chewie, get ready! Here she comes!

[fly buzzing]

Darn these bugs!

[softly] Holy sh*t!

Okay, Chewie, here they come.
Best behavior!

Be on your best behavior!

-Hi, Emily!
-Hey!

Sorry, my hands are full right now!
Ben just got really nervous.

-Yeah.
-There, down you go.

Go on, Chewie. Go say hello.

[Emily] Come on, Ben.
It's all right. Say hi to Chewie.

-[Connor] How've you been?
-I've been good. How are you?

[Connor] Pretty good, thanks.

I got these for you. I hope that was okay.

That's fine. I actually got something
for you too.

-Really?
-Yeah.

-Thank you.
-No problem.

Here you are.

-Here you go.
-Thank you.

[Connor] Wha... what'd ya...

May I open it?

[Emily] Absolutely.

[Connor] What... what have we here?

Oh, look at that!

It's a little Chewbacca chew toy
for Chewie!

-[Emily] Exactly.
-That's very thoughtful, Emily.

-[Emily] Thank you.
-Thank you.

These are really nice.

-I really like the colors.
-Uh, thank you. I'm glad you like them.

-[Chewie grunting softly]
-[Connor] Oh!

-Chewie! Oh my God!
-[Emily] Oh my God!

Oh my G... I am so sorry about that!

-I'm really... I'm absolute...
-[Emily] Uh, it's... it's... it's...

[Connor] I'm so, so sorry!

Chewie's usually not like this! I'm... I'm...

Again, I'm very sorry about that.

[Emily] Don't be. Don't be.

Now... now... uh...

uh...

I'm so sorry. Where were we?

Should we go over by the creek?

Um, sure.

-[Connor] Take a walk right over here.
-[Emily] Great.

[gentle music playing]

-[Connor] Oh.
-[Emily chuckles] Oh. Thanks.

Anytime.

Watch out for the branches.

This is a nice, quiet spot.

[Emily] It is. It's really nice.

[Connor] Uh...

-I see a snake!
-A snake?

-Oh. Oh!
-[Connor] Is it a corn snake?

[Emily] I do not know snakes.

Yeah, me neither.

If red touches yellow,
you're a dead fellow

If red touches black, you're okay, Jack

[Emily] I honestly didn't realize

snakes could... be that close to the water.

Oh, that's nothing.
Snakes can actually swim.

They what?

They... they...
Yeah, you heard me. They can swim.

[Emily] Wow.

You mentioned that you wanted to see
Rise of the Beasts, right?

I did.

Um...

do you think when it comes out,
we could, like, go watch it together?

[Connor] Yes, I... I would.

-That would be great!
-Yeah.

I mean, it's nice to finally see
Unicron finally portrayed

as he was meant to be.

That's definitely a bonus.

I... I feel like they were just kinda...

rippin' off Transformers: Prime
in the Bay movies, 'cause I... I...

Exactly!

I feel like they knew that the writing
was on the wall with The Last Knight.

-Yeah, exactly.
-So they just... gave up.

Where Unicron wasn't going to eat
the earth, but he was the earth!

[buzzing]

So, does your, uh...

does your family do anything for a living?

Uh, my mom is retired.
My dad is actually a high school teacher.

[Connor] Oh, what subject?

-Engineering.
-Huh.

He's actually
head of the school robotics team.

-Robotics? That's nice!
-Yeah.

I... I... Don't quote me on this,
but I think we have won some things.

-My mom sells granite countertops.
-Oh.

-That's interesting.
-Yeah.

Awkward silence!

Yeah, oh, yes!

Um... um...

I...

So, Emily, this is our

third date, yes?

I mean, if you count
the speed dating, yes.

Yeah, okay. Uh...

Date... okay, two... two and a half.

-If you wanna put it... Yeah.
-That's fair.

-Can I be honest about something?
-Sure.

Okay.

I just... um...

[smacks lips]

[inhales, exhales slowly]

I hope you don't think me blunt
or anything, but I...

[jaunty music playing]

[narrator] Dani is in Echo Park,

waiting to meet Adan for another date.

[Cian] How are you feeling about
seeing him again since last time?

It was, like, fantastic,
and I bet Adan is going to enjoy more.

[Cian] More of what?

More of the kissing experience.

[Cian] How is his kissing?

Well, his kissing's really good.
It's just, um...

Eventually, it will get better.

[quacks]

[quacking]

Oh. Oh my goodness.

-[grunting]
-[quacking]

You know what? It's Mother Nature.

[quacking]

May God give me confidence.
Give me strength.

Give me

this moment.

[jaunty music playing]

-Hello there!
-Ah! Adan!

-Good seeing you!
-Oh my gosh!

-Dani, you look fabulous!
-[Dani] You look fabulous too.

-You look gorgeous.
-Thank you so much.

Really like your ring, by the way.

I love the ring I made.
This was my final project for jewelry.

-Pure silver.
-Thank you!

Oh, no! I just wanted to show this to you.

This isn't for you.
I just wanted to show you.

Oh. Why, thank you. So, um...

Oh.

I have a little something for you,
but you gotta do two things.

Number one, close your eyes, pretty lady.

Number two, put out your hand.

Perfect. Keep 'em closed.

I thought of you
when I was making this project.

I had to jump through
some serious hoops. Open 'em.

Hm? Oh wow!

[Adan] I made you a ring.

I... This... this looks good.

I... I know it's not pretty.
Messed it up in the acid, unfortunately,

but the beauty is,
everything is made of brass,

except the center. Pure silver.

Oh, this is fantastic! Wow!

Despite everything, despite
whatever's happening in the world,

imperfect, etc., what matters is
that you remain true to yourself.

-This reminded me of you.
-Thank you.

-Thank you.
-Glad to.

And I think I...
I think this reminded me of you too,

because I think
nobody's perfect is the thing.

Nobody.

Shall we go down for the swan boats?

-After you.
-All right, thank you.

Fortunately, I can handle this.

[whimsical music playing]

[Adan] What do you like to do?
Long walks on the beaches?

[Dani] I like walking on beaches and hike.
I like going to hiking,

and I also like to see Cirque du Soleil.

Oh my gosh! You've seen Cirque du Soleil?!

Oh yeah, Cirque du Soleil shows
plenty of times.

[Adan] Girl, where have you been?

We just don't wanna get wet
by the sprinklers,

by this big, gigantic fountain,

even though
it's one of the most fascinating sights

in Echo Park.

Especially since you and I went through
the trouble of looking this beautiful.

Oh yes!

[suspenseful music playing]

[James] Yes, sure is
a nice, lovely view, isn't it?

[Maggie] It is.

I hope this doesn't sound a bit weird,
but would you like a peppermint patty?

-Uh... sure.
-[James] You don't have to have one.

-Thought I'd offer.
-Thank you.

-Yes, thank you.
-Very sweet of you.

Offering me a chocolate
on the first date too.

Oh, yes. Just trying to...
just trying to be polite and friendly.

-Thank you!
-Yes.

[Maggie] Mm.

[James] It's...

It's not too bad. Um...

So, you have your own place?

With housemates, yeah.

Oh, I see, 'cause, yeah,
I... I still live with my parents, actually.

Yeah, I know, but it's just that houses
are terribly expensive,

but I'm looking around, actually.

There was a house
that was just put on the market.

When I checked this morning, it'd been
on the market about seven hours,

so I already sent a text message
to my... the agent with whom I'm working,

let her know I was interested.
Open house tomorrow, so that's cool.

-That is cool.
-Yes.

-I just rent the apartment with everyone.
-Ah.

Right, I see, yeah.
Things are pretty tough right now.

You know, back when,
like, my parents were young,

a person could work one job
and support a family on one income,

but you can't do that now, sadly.

-No. I can barely... Yeah.
-Oof. [groans]

Very unfortunate, but I'm doing my best.

Would you like to take a picture of us
with the castle in the background?

-Sounds great!
-Yes.

I'm not very good with selfies, I'm sorry,
so I hope that I look good with it.

-I hope you look good in it too.
-Oh, thank you.

Oh, these glasses are so dorky looking!

[Cian] How're you feeling, Maggie?

Think it's going well, yeah!

Um...

I'm having fun. He's very sweet.

I love the gummy bouquet.

It's very nice.

-I think it looks nice, yeah!
-Oh, very good.

Yes, I hope... I hope... I hope I look okay,
but I think you look just fine.

[Cian] How are you feeling?
How's the date?

Oh, I think it's going excellently.
I'm having a great time.

Okay, I would miss...

I am a little disappointed
to learn that she's a vegetarian,

but, you know,
that's a pretty minor thing.

In the... in the... grand...
in the grand scheme of things,

that's... that's pretty minor.

It's not the end of the universe.
I... I can handle that. Mm.

I've been having a wonderful time today.
Have you, I hope?

-Yeah, I have. Thank you!
-Good.

Glad to hear that! Yes. Um...

-Do you mind if I hold your hand?
-Oh, okay!

If you're not comfortable,
I don't have to!

-No, no! It's nice. It's fine.
-Oh, okay, that's fine.

Look at this view here. Look at the way
the ocean stretches out like that.

[Maggie] It does. It looks nice.

It is a bit chilly.

-Do you mind if I put my sweatshirt on?
-No, I'm feeling cold as well.

-Better put on our outer layers again.
-One second.

-Thank you so much.
-Of course. You're welcome.

Oh, I like that design.

Does that have
any special significance to you?

[Maggie] Um, I saw it in a shop in Hanoi,
and I liked it.

-Oh, very nice
-Yeah.

-It's not too bad, then.
-No.

-Yes, I feel much warmer now.
-I feel so much better, yeah.

-Yes, no kidding.
-Thank you.

Yes, absolutely.

Yes, so...

-So glad... glad you had a good time.
-Yeah, I did.

Absolutely. Um... um...

S...

What... what else is there...

Do you... Yeah! Uh,
would you like to go on another date?

Absolutely, I'd love to!
Yes, we can always...

-Yeah.
-Yes.

Okay. [chuckles]

[giggles]

That's okay. Thank you!

Yes, thank you,
and you're very welcome, then.

-Well, let's go and walk to the car.
-Yes.

[romantic music playing]

-[pleasant music playing]
-[Connor] Um...

[exhales slowly]

[panting]

I...

I hope you don't think me blunt
or anything, but I...

I kind of...

-You...
-...like you.

Oh!

And I was wondering if... maybe...

you'd like to hold hands?

Oh. Uh, all right.

Don't...

Uh...

This feels a bit, uh...

[Emily] It feels... pretty nice.

-Yeah, I guess.
-Yeah.

Should... maybe...

we should... should we let...

um...

-You all right?
-Yeah. Yeah. It's just...

Ooh, that was, uh...

ki...

kind of strange.

It's fine. I can take it.

Oh, it... it... it felt... it felt nice,

but at the same time, uh,

a little scary.

I'm sorry.

-It's... it's fine. It's fine. I get it.
-Um...

Don't... don't feel like
you have to apologize for that. It's fine.

It's all right?

The reason I... I said it was scary,

I don't mean anything against you!
No, no, no!

Oh, nothing. It's just...

I just felt a bit nervous about it.

It's fine!

So,

yeah, let's, uh...
lets... let's... let's just forget about it.

I mean... I mean,

stop talk...

[sighs] Wh...

Oh.

Thank you.

What I mean is, I...

I like it out here with you
and spending time with you.

[Emily] Mm-hmm.

[sweet instrumental music playing]

Uh...

And I actually have...

well, the week after next week,
I actually have the whole week off, so...

Oh, nice!

Maybe

wanna do something else, uh, with me?

I... I could introduce you to my family.

Oh, um... sure!

-Really?
-[Emily] Yeah.

That... that sounds like it would be fun.

Well, we could...

call each other.

Yeah, that... that sounds good.

Sounds great.

I'm really glad
that I could see you today, Emily.

[Emily] Me too.

[Connor] Yeah.

[quacks]

-[Adan] This is romantic.
-This is, indeed.

And good to see the, um... the pond.

[Adan] Yup. The view,
the nature, being at a park.

-[Dani giggles]
-[quacking]

[Adan] This duck's
just as annoying as Daffy Duck.

[Dani] Oh yes.

-[Adan] Hey, duck!
-[quacks]

[Adan] Stop it! We're trying to have
a date, bud.

-[giggles]
-You know how to ruin the moment!

[quacks]

How do you feel about
going on the swan boat? Was it fantastic?

It was. It was beautiful.
It was romantic. And I'm not gonna lie,

I almost got lightheaded
several instances,

pushing myself pedaling,

but what made it enjoyable
was spending it with you.

Spending time with you.
I've got something for you.

Oh!

-Okay. All right.
-Okay, close your eyes! No peeking!

I promise I'm not.

-What's this?
-Open up!

Oh my God. Sprinkles cupcakes!
I love Sprinkles cupcakes!

My mother introduced me to them,
and I've been a fan ever since.

And the thing is,
is that when it comes to having a cupcake,

it's just like when we're kissing, right?

Oh, absolutely.

Like, what I saw from the videos,
I watched how, um, they kiss,

how this woman was able to kiss
with her cupcake, and she does it gently.

-Like...
-[chuckles]

Like that. And do it very smoothly,
like you're kissing, like...

Gotcha.

-It's not like...
-Gotcha.

-Like, you're just like...
-Of course.

We all have to take it
gentle and smooth, like this, right?

Oh, 100%. 100%.

-You have one, and I have one.
-Sweet.

Usually, I start with the lips,

and then start doing
the tongue afterwards.

[Adan grunting]

They say the tongue is
the strongest muscle in your body.

Okay, I see. I see.

[Dani] Mm.

-It's not bites or anything.
-Now she tells me.

[both chuckle]

Let me try one side where I didn't bite.

[Dani] Mm.

Sometimes you just have to tilt
your head too, right?

I think I'm starting
to get the hang of it.

Okay, let's try... apply what we learn.

-Ready when you are, Teach.
-Okay.

[Adan] How's this?

So nice, but usually
we start with the lips first.

[Adan] Oh, of course.

You put the tongue, very tip, there.

-[Adan] Okay, I understand.
-Mm-hmm.

How am I doing, Teach?

You're doing better.

-Thanks. You're not so bad yourself.
-Mm-hmm.

-You're a very good teacher, Dani.
-Thank you so much.

[Adan] Dani.

-I'd like to ask you something.
-[Dani] Yes?

-After seeing you on numerous occasions...
-Mm-hmm.

Be still, my beating heart.
[clears throat]

[Dani chuckles]

Would you like to be my girlfriend?

-Well...
-It's up to you.

And, yes, I would definitely
would like to be your girlfriend.

We'll make our relationship work out.

I certainly hope so. Yeah.

-The cupcakes. The ring.
-Mm-hmm.

The boat ride.

All of the above.

-Very nice.
-[chuckles]

[David] Close your eyes.

No peeking.

[Abbey] But if I close my eyes,
I can't see where I'm going.

[David] I got you.

[narrator] It's Abbey and David's
last night in Africa,

and David has organized
a romantic rendezvous.

[Abbey] Thanks.

[David] Almost there.

Okay. You can look now.

[Abbey gasps] Oh!

-I made this for you.
-Oh my God!

This is a dream come true to me!

[David] Have a seat right there.

It's a nice view.

[David] Mm-hmm.

[Abbey] So many trees.

[David] Yep, and the yellow grass

and the mountains and the sky.

This is a miracle to me.

It sure is.

I have been wanting to do this
ever since our first date.

Wow.

-I was there on our first date.
-You were?

[David] Abbey, I got you a drink.

Oh, thank you.

[romantic music playing]

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

You're my best boyfriend
in the world, David.

You make me feel like a princess,
like a romance.

You're the best girlfriend in the world.

You made me feel like a prince
in a romance.

Oh, thank you.
Thanks for making my dreams come true.

-You're welcome.
-That means a lot to me.

David, I never wanna lose you.

I want you to be
my boyfriend forever or fiancé.

When we get married, we can have
a big bowl of candy on our table.

Aww! But if only
they have the kinds I like!

The Hershey's, the Reese's,
the M&Ms, and the Kit Kats and...

-Even gummies, right?
-And gummies.

And Oreo cookies.

And Chips Ahoys.

[Abbey] Okay.

You have a good time in Africa?

Yes, I knew I was gonna see lionesses
with their cubs!

[David] Aww!

Thomson's gazelles and the rhinos

and the vultures and the marabou stork.

The giraffes, the hippos,

the zebras, the elephants.

-[Abbey] We heard hyenas last night.
-Yeah, like every night, you mean.

They only come out at night.
That's very romantic.

Yeah. It is.

[Abbey] I hope we can get married one day.

[David] Me too.

We'll find out sooner or later.

Okay.

-Abbey?
-What?

[David] Yes.

This will help you
remember our trip forever.

Oh, thank you! What is it?

Open up and find out.

Wow!

-No way.
-[David] Yeah.

It's a necklace.

Lioness, Africa 2022!

[David] Yeah!

That's amazing.
That means everything to me.

-Thank you so much.
-You're welcome.
