Sexy Beasts (2021) s02e01 Episode Script

1
One of my doubts about you was that
you haven't been in a relationship before,
so why do you think that is?
I just go for the wrong people.
What about you?
I used to, like, get myself into
some weird situations.
No, nothing weird about this.
[narrator] Let's face it,
when it comes to dating,
it's all about looks.
- I was on the cover of Playboy.
- [slurping]
So, in this show,
we've made everyone look ridiculous.
I think it looks like a ball bag.
Could you fall in love
based only on personality?
This could possibly be love.
And would you change your mind
when you saw their real face?
- Wow, wow, wow.
- Welcome to the weirdest blind date ever.
Are you ready to marry me?
This is Sexy Beasts.
Meet Mick, a tour guide
from Nashville, Tennessee.
I haven't dated in a while.
Uh, the last person I dated
was a few years ago,
and, you know, I'm definitely ready
for another relationship.
I'm very interested in finding someone
to love and start a life with.
And what are you looking for
in that life partner?
Someone who's empathetic,
a good communicator.
Someone who likes to enjoy
the same things that I do,
like dancing to music
or playing music or singing.
[jaunty tune]
Oh, what a life ♪
Might meet my wife ♪
And he just might.
One of these three freaks
could be the future Mrs. Mick.
I don't think I've ever had three girls
fight over me in one day,
so this is quite a unique experience.
Well, let's hope
they don't actually fight.
These are the three girls
who are looking to fire up our dragon.
Starting with Edith, a yoga instructor
and law student from California.
I don't know if I know what true love is.
I actually have never met someone
that has given me butterflies.
This could be the beginning
of an epic love story,
or it could be a disaster.[laughing]
Well, I'll be honest, either works for us.
So, how does an armadillo
prepare for a first date?
I center myself and do some
yoga breathing techniques,
just calm the nerves down.
I am a sexy armadillo.
Sexy armadillo [echoing]
You are a sexy armadillo.
[clears throat] Excuse me.
I'm looking for a fun,
adventurous, confident man.
I'm so excited to go meet my date.
If he's the one, he's the one.
Our next contender is Abby,
a customer assistant
from Lincoln, England.
In the past, I have gone for looks,
but their personality
resembles a wet sock.
I don't want to be shallow
and constantly look for looks.
The shark wants to go deep. Love it.
I've come here today
to find the love of my life.
I'm striving for the top
I've just whacked my little antler.
Whatever the hell that is.
I I think it's actually your eye.
Is that my eye?[chuckling]
That British accent just makes
everyone sound so intelligent.
[laughing]
Finally, this is Angella Katherine,
a professional swimmer
and lifeguard from Brooklyn, New York.
In my head, I'm a mermaid.
The amount of dates that I had to
pass up for because I had a swim meet?
This is why I'm here. [laughing]
And what are your hopes
for today, mer-kat?
I am here to find my soulmate.
I'm here to find my man.
I feel like if that person
can really, like, talk to me,
and we vibing, and we laughing, I'm sold.
It's a beautiful way to fall in love.
So, that's three women
all here to find true love.
I'm having the time of my life ♪
No pressure, Mick.
No wonder he looks scared.
Our hero will now speed date
our three hideous heroines
And you're Nick?
Mick with an "M." Like Jagger.
Like McDonald's. [laughing]
before ditching one of them
based purely on first impressions.
I I cannot stop staring at your face.
It's gorgeous.
Same for you. Phenomenal.
And only then
will he get to see her real face.
Is this your first time
in a situation like this?
I have never been on a date
as an armadillo.
- Oh, my God.
- [laughing]
How will our girls fare
inside the dragon's lair?
[dragon growling]
I'm a musician.
More recently,
I'm just interested in, like,
pop music and rock,
and making my own music.
I love Caribbean music.
Anything to dance, know what I mean?
- So you love to dance?
- Yeah.
We both have a mutual love of music.
- [humming Beethoven's "Für Elise"]
- Bingo.
That's exciting to me.
Uh, what do you do?
- I'm a yogi. I'm a yoga teacher.
- Right on. I love yoga.
- Did you try hot yoga?
- Oh, yeah.
Show me your fire.
- [laughing]
- I think we could connect spiritually.
I'd love to see where that
could possibly go.
Have you been on any bad dates?
Do you know what? I am genuinely
a very easy-to-please person.
- Nice, yeah.
- I'm low maintenance.
I'm so friendly,
I can vibe with a brick wall.
- I definitely feel that from you.
- [laughing]
I loved that. I thought that was
so funny, and she's so easy to talk to.
Are you a beach person?
- I'm a beach lifeguard in the summertime.
- No way. That's cool.
- Baywatch. I'll be running in slow motion.
- [laughing]
I wanna see the world.
I wanna explore. I wanna find that person.
- Yeah.
- We get this one life.
- Absolutely. I love national parks.
- Mm-hmm.
Like, trying to hit
all of 'em before I die.
I love it. I'm down with it. Like
- Where's my mouth?
- [laughing]
Favorite musical?
I'm like, super obsessed with
the Moulin Rouge fantasy
of opening your own theater.
Yes!
I love the idea of, like,
your core group of thespians.
- That's the word I was looking for.
- Thespians.
Thespians. Here's to thespians.
Oh, my goodness.
William Shakespeare is like
B is just like, "Yes."
Is he, though?
I'd love to meet the one.
- I am hoping to find the one, as well.
- Beautiful.
It's just not happened for me, uh, yet.
We're just going with the flow.
With a dragon here.
Any questions?
- Anything you're curious about?
- Questions.
- [Mick] Yeah.
- Oh.
Or we can just sit. That's also fine.
- And stare into each other's eyes?
- Yeah, absolutely.
[Edith] Oh.
Shall we have a cheers?
Cheers.
If you could have one dip
with your nuggets, what would it be?
Honey mustard or something.
Don't think I'm a basic bitch,
but I just like ketchup.
So, if we ever went out,
we could share a 20 box.
I would fully smash out ten
with no issues.
The "Ten-Nugget Temptress"
they call her on the streets of Lincoln.
What a lady.
So, were any sparks flying
on the speed dates?
[Angella] I felt a connection and a spark,
for sure. He's so kind, so smart.
I'm just excited to see where it goes.
I genuinely want a second date.
I felt like there was a connection,
and we have a lot in common.
I really enjoyed the date.
It was such a good experience.
I am really hoping to be
picked for a second date.
I'm feeling positive, but you never know.
I had an awesome overall experience.
That was really fun.
It's gonna be tough to lose one of them,
but I'm embracing the game,
and I feel ready.
And Mick will embrace the game
by kicking one of the girls out of
the competition here at Sexy Beasts Manor,
the ceremonial site of beasts getting
dumped in the pursuit of true love.
Someone's going,
and her mask is coming off.
Hello, everyone.
- It's nice to see you again.
- [women] Hi.
[all laughing]
I had a lovely time with
each and every one of you.
Edith, you love yoga,
you love the outdoors. I love that.
Uh, Abby, uh, you made me laugh.
I really enjoyed that,
and came right out of the gates with it.
Uh, Angella Katherine,
we have so much in common.
You love theatrics and music.
So, I had a really nice time.
As much as I'd love to go on
a date with all three of you
[giggling]
I have to lose someone,
and that person is
[tense music playing]
Edith.
- [Mick] I'm sorry.
- [Abby] Aw, girl.
- [Edith] It was a pleasure meeting you.
- [Abby] You are a delight.
You really are. I'm so sorry.
It was so nice to meet you.
I'm not thrilled, but it's okay.
I hope you find what you're looking for.
Same. So sorry.
I'm still looking for the one.
- You guys ready for another date?
- [both] Yeah!
- [Mick] Fun day tomorrow. Let's do it.
- [Abby] Let's go.
Are we going now?
- Easy there, lady.
- [laughing]
First, we need to see
what the real Edith looks like.
Arma-hello!
What a way to come out of your shell.
Has Mick let the wrong beast go?
- The anticipation's killing me.
- [laughing]
- [gasping] Oh!
- Oh, my God.
- [Abby] There she is!
- No, like
[Mick] No idea.
- Hi!
- [Angella] Oh, my God.
That hurt.
I felt that.
That was a tough reveal. Yeah.
Sorry, it didn't work out.
Yeah, me too.
Um, I did have a question for you.
Lay it on me.
Why?
I just felt, like, at times,
the conversation stalled out,
where with these two,
it just kind of kept going.
I'm really happy I asked
the question as to why,
so I can just apply it to future dates
and not be quietly awkward.
I was genuinely shocked.
I didn't expect that
she was beautiful and
I just couldn't see it through the mask.
I mean, that is
the point of the entire show.
Anyway, Mick was impressed.
But what will Edith think when she gets
a sneaky glimpse of his real face?
Oh, wow.
No. Wow.
Mick's the type of guy I'd go for.
[sighing] His personality, too.
It's okay, it's okay. [laughing]
[groaning]
So, Abby and Angella Katherine
now get a second date with Mick,
before he chooses his sexy beast
and all the masks come off.
First to try and win
the dragon heart is Abby.
I would say I'm quite the dating queen.
I don't wanna blow my own
trumpet or anything,
but I am confident in my abilities
to win him over for sure.
Well, let's see if she can,
as Mick takes Abby on a wild night out,
flower arranging.
[Mick] This is pretty wonderful.
With a lovely woman named Judith.
We're going to create
something magnificent.
Let's get started.
And after a bouquet-making masterclass
And there you are.
A beautiful bunch of flowers.
Absolutely gorge.
Mick and Abby are
left to create their own.
- I'm going full on rainbow vibes.
- I love it.
While breathing in the sweet
scent of potential love.
I picked you, 'cause, you know,
you were making me laugh.
- I was very charmed.
- You were Am I a charmer?
You are a charmer.
That's such a good compliment,
isn't it, really?
I'm clearly smooth.
- [cup falls over]
- Oh.
[Mick] Abby definitely has happy energy.
[laughing]
It's contagious.
Looks like a toilet brush.
- [laughing]
- Don't tell Judith I said that, will you?
I'm constantly charmed by that.
[Abby] I feel like it's kinda vibing.
I like it. Well,
you got the colors going on.
But be careful of these ones.
- Your bouquet is a hazard now.
- [Mick laughing]
Personality-wise, Mick definitely isn't
the sort of guy I normally go for,
but then, I'm still single,
so my type clearly isn't working.
[laughing]
[Abby] I definitely think
there's spice there.
Look how beautiful they are.
Well, I'd like to give you this,
made specifically for you, Abby.
- There's yours.
- Okay. Oh, I love this.
I really do. I think that you nailed it.
Aw, they've given each other flowers.
- Yay!
- Thanks.
Let's get Judge Judith to ruin the moment
by saying whose is best.
[Judith] Now, you created this one?
You know what? Yes.
Ah, so, Mick's sneakily keeping quiet
that they've swapped their bouquets over.
This guy knows how to party.
I think that the choice of
flowers is great.
That's all me.
Hm.
But what about the bouquet
Mick actually made?
This is incredible.
Such a short lesson,
that you can do this is exceptional.
- What would you rate it out of ten?
- We could give this a nine.
[Abby gasping]
Oh, my God.
Yeah, don't suppose
you'd rate this one, too?
- I think we'll give this one an eight.
- Okay.
[Abby] I'm fuming about that,
but I'm not surprised,
actually, thinking about it.
My bouquet did get the highest mark,
and I didn't necessarily
get credit for it.
But I did win. I did win.
Doesn't feel like a very honest victory,
but a victory is a victory.
[laughing]
Except when it's a defeat.
- [laughing]
- Right.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
I don't normally do
posh things like this, do you?
Okay. I try to be as classy as possible,
but I don't find myself in,
like, very classy situations.
But here I am saying that
over a glass of champagne under a
- [Abby giggling] A flowered arch.
- A flower arc.
With a hammerhead shark.
[laughing]
I would happily come back,
do this again with you.
Oh, my God, yeah.
It went really well.
We were vibing, for sure.
I'm waiting for you to
get on one knee and pull out a ring.
- [laughing]
- [Mick] That's
This date set a pretty high bar.
I mean, this was perfect for me.
So, things are looking good
for the shark. Over to you, meerkat.
Everything I do, I go into it
with high hopes and high expectations.
[sing-song] He better come to me!
'Cause I'm ready, okay?
[chuckling] Period.
[bell dings]
Well, let's hope
they're both ready to rock,
as Mick and Angella Katherine go
bouldering
in a warehouse
with an instructor named Warren.
Have either of you
done any of this before,
any bouldering or climbing?
- No.
- No.
So, with this, we don't have any
harnesses or any ropes to protect us.
- We've just got the floor instead.
- Oh, jeopardy.
After a quick warm-up,
Mick tries a solo run.
I believe in you.
- I feel good.
- Yes.
That's the one right there.
Okay, upper body strength.
- Oh, I got it.
- You're inspiring me.
- I got it.
- [Angella laughing]
That was crazy.
I climbed up it as reptilian as possible.
- Bravo.
- Ooh.
Amazing.
Maybe the inspiration was
having Angella around?
Thank you.
Okay, Angella Katherine,
your turn to wow on the wall.
I'm deathly afraid of heights.
I do not like being off the ground.
Oh, dear.
But I like a challenge.
- You're definitely afraid of heights?
- Yes.
But I love a challenge. I'm like,
"Mama ain't raised no scaredy-cat."
Oh, shit.
- [squealing]
- [Mike] Oh!
[gasping] Oh, God! Someone call 911.
Meerkat down. Meerkat d
- [squealing]
- Oh, wait.
Wh What was that drop, like half a foot?
- [Mike] I didn't see that coming.
- [laughing]
I've never felt so giddy
in such a short time.
Well, that's a fear of heights for you.
I was feeling giddy because of Mick.
So many other people
would've probably been laughing,
but his main goal was to make sure
I got up and tried it again.
- Ooh!
- Impressed me that she got back up again.
- [Warren] Perfect. That's the top.
- It's lit.
[laughing]
I think Angella and I have
a great connection.
- High-five. You did good.
- High-five.
I feel a spark.
Let's get outta here.
[Angella giggling]
[Angella] We made it. Cheers.
Cheers to a successful rock-climbing date.
- Good luck.
- [splutters]
[Mick] Oh, that didn't help.
[laughing]
CPR. [coughing]
- The mermaid is drowning.
- Mermaid?
- The mermaid is my spirit animal.
- Okay, right on.
I watched a documentary
on mermaids, and, like,
they basically originated
from, like, Africa.
A lot of people think they're fake.
- I think they're real. Yeah.
- You think they're real?
I don't know if mermaids are real.
I'm not a historian or scientist,
so who am I to say otherwise?
Oh, you know what's funny? [giggling]
I'm in a competition
right now with other girls,
and it doesn't even
feel like a competition.
Oh!
When you feel that connection,
no one else matters.
Actual footage there of a meerkat
aggressively marking its territory.
My date with Angella was amazing.
- [Mick] I feel pretty great.
- Oh, I feel like
Like, what's that feeling
when you like, "Ah!"
Like, "Oh, my God!" That's the feeling.
Honestly, it could be love, and
I don't say the L word too quickly,
but I genuinely love his spirit.
To be honest, I don't think this is
gonna be a hard decision for me.
I know who I'm gonna choose.
Curveball, it's Judith.
I hear you, dragon balls,
but, sadly, Judith is off the table.
[romantic music slowing]
So, let's return to the manor
for Mick to choose his Sexy Beast.
Did romance blossom with Abby?
I'm clearly smooth.
- [cup falls over]
- Oh.
Or has Mick fallen
- Oh!
- for Angella Katherine?
Hi, Abby.
- Hi.
- Hi, Angella Katherine.
I just wanna thank you both so much
for going on a second date with me.
Uh, Abby, it was amazing
getting to be creative with you
and sharing laughs with you.
Angella Katherine,
we got to be physical and adventurous
and just get to talk over wine.
I've made my decision.
My Sexy Beast is
[tense music playing]
Angella Katherine.
I'm so happy for you.
[Angella] I'm very excited.
You know, when you feel the sparks,
it's so interesting to feel them
without ever seeing how he looks.
- Your Sexy Beast. [laughing]
- Yeah.
I chose Angella Katherine as the winner
'cause we have so much in common.
We just vibe.
I think I feel a real connection, yeah.
I know he's gonna fancy me,
but looks alone aren't enough, are they?
I'm walking away,
and I will go back to my DMs
as soon as I get back. [laughing]
I'm ready to see my dragon,
how he look and if he breathes fire.
[trills] Okay.
Well, let's hope he doesn't, because
this place is a massive fire hazard.
Anyway, let's descale the real Mick.
Whoa! Check out that mane.
The dragon may be gone,
but Mick is smokin'.
Before he meets his Sexy Beast,
let's reveal the one who got away.
Goodbye, shark antlers.
Thankfully, Abby's real head
looks nothing like a hammer.
Will Mick regret throwing her back?
We'll find out as they meet in
the manor's Great Hall of Romance.
- Wow! Oh, God.
- Are you kidding me?
Look at your hair.
- I did not expect it.
- Look at you!
Abby's beautiful.
I was absolutely floored.
- Oh, my God. You're beautiful.
- Okay.
Mick isn't normally
the type of guy that I go for,
but I do appreciate his handsomeness.
He looked like a surfer.
- Definitely stay in touch.
- Let's do it.
- Farewell, my darling.
- Bye.
I was blown away by Abby,
but from the first speed date,
I knew Angella was my winner.
So, the meerkat has always been the one,
but how will Mick feel
when he meets the real Angella Katherine
for the very first time?
[triumphant music playing]
Oh, my God.
Well, I guess if you hang out with
a dragon, you wind up hot.
You look so good.
- Look at you. My God.
- You're beautiful. [squealing]
Look at your hair.
Look at your hair.
No, you're actually so gorgeous.
- You too.
- Oh, my goodness!
He's beautiful. [sighing]
I'm trying to be calm.
But, like, inside,
I'm just like [squealing]
[clears throat]
Well, you know, gotta keep it classy.
I really loved her personality,
and then she walked out,
and I was blown away.
Like, I can't describe
how blown away I was.
[triumphant music playing]
- [Mick] You are beautiful.
- Oh, my God.
You are beautiful.
If I saw her out, I'd [hesitates]
She's She's out of my league.
I would've said,
"This girl? No way." Oh, my God.
Ooh! I'm shaking. Like, I'm like
Oh, my gosh. [sighing]
Just get my words out.
I am so happy.
You have beautiful eyes.
You have a beautiful soul,
beautiful spirit, and I'm like
[squealing]
Oh, my God. This is amazing.
I feel This is crazy.
I sure hope that there's a future,
and I I can't wait to find out.
Are you gonna carry me over the threshold?
- I'm the one that makes the party.
- Never say that again.
I hate you so much.
Don't be a dick. Don't be rude.
- Oh! Jesus Christ!
- I said I wasn't going to be disappointed
[theme music playing]
