[Nick.]
I have spent countless hours engaging with potential partners and, after all of that, like, I've actually found my wife.
It's just so crazy that we were able to do that, like, through pods.
It's so fricking weird.
[dramatic music intensifies.]
[Danielle.]
I am completely in love with Nick.
He's not only my fiancé, he's my best friend, and I'm about to see him for the first time.
[music stops.]
My God.

Hello.
I feel my cold heart caving in I see the daylight breaking through - You're beautiful.
- You're beautiful.
Will make it out of the dark We can follow the stars Want to see it all Feel it all with you Feel it all with you - I can feel your heart beating.
- Really pumping there.
Mine is just as much, yeah.
- Seems like it's been a lifetime.
- Yeah, it has been.
- [Nick.]
You look so pretty.
- [Danielle.]
Yeah? - [laughing.]
I was so scared.
- Why were you so scared? Why do you think? I was like, "What if he doesn't think I'm cute?" Of course I think you're cute.
Feel it all with you Feel it all with you [kissing.]
- My fiancé.
[chuckles.]
- I can't believe it.
- I love you.
- Love you too.
[Danielle chuckles.]
- You say it while I can see you.
- I know.
I love you.
Love you, too.
[chuckles.]
Being able to see the face behind the voice was just amazing.
He has the most beautiful blue eyes, and I have blue eyes.
Our kids are gonna be gorgeous.
I can't wait.
I'll remember this moment for the rest of my life.
I was nervous, so I put on teeth whiteners twice today.
- Today? - Yeah.
- I'm so awkward.
- [Nick chuckling.]
Oh my [Danielle.]
Oh, I like the socks.
- That's my dog.
- I figured.
Oh, he's cute.
[Nick.]
Yep.
It's your dog now too.
He's been looking for a mommy for a long time.
- Now he's finally got one.
- He's got one.
I can't believe that I fell in love with someone, and then I didn't get to see them, and then when I did see them, it only made it better.
- We're an engaged couple.
- [quietly.]
I know.
You're gonna have to get used to me being like this all the time.
[Nick chuckles.]
This experience, it's changed my life.
You took all my hesitation Shattered all my expectations Handed me an invitation to your heart [Danielle.]
I already am anticipating the wedding day.
I am so confident about the relationship that we're going to have, that I'm ready to be married to him tomorrow.
I am not going to let anything get in the way of this.
Can't wait to just start this wonderful life we have planned.
I cannot wait to go on this romantic getaway with Nick, because I think that it's just going to continue to develop what we've already started developing, and I'm gonna get to spend every single waking second with him in Mexico, and I cannot imagine anything better than that.
- Love you.
- I love you.
Now, I just get to work on spending the rest of my life with him.
[laughs.]
We'll be all right [upbeat music plays.]
I'm making moves Oh, I'm ready to go I'm making moves - [woman 1.]
Cheers.
- It's been crazy, bro.
I am a believer.
I'm never gonna stop Until I'm on top Let me ask you a question.
Have you ever thought of growing a beard? I don't grow a very good beard.
You're an attractive guy.
Imagine with the beard? - Game over.
- Ooh.
I'm making moves Oh, I'm ready to go I'm making moves Oh, yeah As crazy as this shit sound like on the outside looking in, this shit is working.
- [Iyanna.]
Yeah.
- And I don't know how.
I feel more and more certain every single time I speak with you.
I definitely feel like I've known you for forever.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy? So, would you feel comfortable if I moved in and I wanted to change up some stuff to make it feel more like my home? Our home? I mean, long as it's not, like, nothing too crazy, like, you Not, like, pink everywhere? No.
[both laughing.]
- Did we have a sex talk yet? - We haven't.
- Are you a very affectionate person, or - I can be.
I don't have to be making out.
I'm not a big make-outer, but - What? - [laughs.]
You don't like to kiss? I'm not gonna lie.
Like, saliva freaks me out.
- [blows raspberry laughing.]
- Is that weird? 'Cause I think about how many enzymes are in your saliva, and how they, like, eat away at Yo.
I've never thought about any [sighs.]
My brain be doing the most, bro.
- Oh my God.
[chuckles.]
- Like, that's what Oh God.
Like, just thinking about it.
Uh-uh.
When I think of intimacy, kissing is involved.
[laughs.]
Yes, but I don't wanna be, like, making out for, like, five plus minutes.
[laughing.]
Stop laughing at me! Stop! - [both laughing.]
- Leave me alone.
She's about, "Nah, don't kiss me too long.
" "How much time we done been kissing for? Four minutes, 37 seconds.
All right.
" "You got 30 more seconds, homie.
" [both chuckling.]
[Jarrette.]
It changes every day.
Because yesterday I felt like Mallory and I had a really good day.
And then today I feel like me and Iyanna had a really good day.
So, right now, it's Iyanna.
Yesterday it was Mallory.
It's tough.

You were getting fitted for some suit, like a business suit or whatever.
Taking all the measurements.
That's what you were doing.

I like that dream.
I woke up like, "Yo, what? How am I dreaming about somebody I've never met?" [chuckles.]
I was like, "What is this woman doing to me?" [chuckling.]
[Jarrette.]
For real.
How the fuck is this even happening? How is this even possible that I have not seen this person, but yet I'm starting to develop feelings for this person? Damn.

For sure.
Bruh.

If you turn me on [Jarrette chuckles.]
through a conversation, I'm not worried about anything else.
- Sorry, I'm so awkward right now.

Don't be scared now.
[Mallory.]
What if you see me and I'm not what you pictured? I'll be fine with what you look like.
I'm not worried about that at all.

[whispers.]
Oh my God.
What the fuck is going on? I listen to my heart Beating in my chest And I think Of you Just you It's you that I want Just you You that I need Just you Hello? Natalie? [Natalie sighs.]
[Shayne.]
Are you okay? [Natalie.]
Yesterday, after our conversation, I was nervous that I wouldn't talk to you again.
If it's not you, I don't think there's anyone else here for me.
[Shayne.]
Whatever I have to do to prove to you that I'm fully focused on you, I will do it.
I wanna Honestly, I just wanna hold you and hug you and make sure you're okay.
Hey, do you see on your cart? - What? - Do you see anything on your cart? [Natalie.]
What do you mean? Did you give me a rose? [chuckles.]
[Shayne.]
It's corny and cheesy, sure, but I just wanted to let you know, like, you are a magical person.
- Thanks.
- [both chuckle.]
You annoyed the fuck out of me yesterday, but [chuckles.]
Yeah, I feel like that's okay.
[chuckles.]
[Natalie.]
I feel differently about you than I ever have for someone else.
[Shayne.]
All I care about is making you happy and there is gonna be no more confusion.
I just wanna focus on us, and that's it.
Really.
Okay.
And these old walls were mine And this is home - [Shayne.]
So, question.
- Okay.
Will you be my girlfriend? This is where it started [Natalie.]
Yeah, of course.
This is where it started [chuckles.]
This is where my heart is I couldn't be happier.
Me too.
This is where it started [song ends.]
[Shaina.]
Did you have a date with Shayne just now? - What? - What happened? [Natalie.]
He asked me to be his girlfriend.
Are those champs? Are you ready for war? Bang bang Down they go, yeah Bang bang Can we popsy-pops? I'm, like, emotionally exhausted.
[chuckles.]
Are you ready for war? [cork pops.]
Tell me, baby Will you be waiting? Natalie and me have the strongest connection, but I have feelings for Shaina too, yes.
I have a romantic connection with both of them, 100%.
I just need to know where they stand and how they feel about me.

- Are you in your comfy clothes? - I am.
- What are you wearing? - I'm wearing these men's - Men's? Ex-boyfriend men's stuff or what? - No.
Never! No, they're like these men's gray joggers, with a black crop top.
[Shayne.]
Oh You are so fucking hot.
What's going on? Why are you holding back? I just don't want another failed engagement.
I don't wanna look stupid.
You're not gonna look stupid, so you don't need a hundred reassurances.
I just need, like, just to see that you're in it.
- [Shaina.]
Yeah, I told you that I care.
- Fight for it, then, or something.
- You know I care.
Of course I like you.
- [Shayne.]
Yeah.
[Shaina.]
But again, I won't play second fiddle to anybody.
[Shayne.]
I get that, trust me.
I'm not stupid.
I know that.
Shayne.
[chuckling.]
What? What was the conversation today? [Shayne.]
What do you mean? - Natalie? - [sighs deeply.]
I She said you asked her to be your girlfriend.
Did you say those things to Natalie? [Shayne.]
I love these questions.
- [Shaina.]
Did No - I love these questions.
Well, no, she made sure that she told me that you said that.
[Shayne.]
Oh my God - [Shaina.]
I'm asking you a question.
- I know, but I'm like, who cares? - I care.
- Why? - 'Cause I care.
- Why do you care about that? She knows that I'm talking to you.
Yeah, but if you have a girlfriend, that's a different story.
[Shayne chuckling.]
Oh my God.
Whatever she says, why does it matter? Shaina? Shayne.
Dude, just be honest.
Yes or no? You're making it way more difficult.
- Yes, I did.
- Okay.
That's all you had to say.
Okay.
There you go.
[sighs.]
I'm sorry, I guess [exhales deeply.]
Is it over, then, or what? If you have a girlfriend, yeah.
- That changes things, honey.
- [Shayne.]
Okay.
[sighs.]
Let it hurt Let it bleed [Shaina.]
I still adore you.
[Shayne.]
I hope so.
Gotta hold on to that someone Got nowhere to hide So let it hurt Let it bleed - Feel it all - [sighs.]
Lose everything - [sighs.]
- Let it hurt Just let it bleed Feel it all [Shayne.]
Damn it.
Shaina's like She's a fantastic person.
And I might never see her again, or talk to her again, and [sighs.]
Yeah, it just sucks.
Let it hurt Let it bleed Feel it all - Whoo! - Good luck.
Time Ohh Better than we've ever been I'm not working out.
I make bad diet choices.
Yeah, not winning any body contests over here but, you know, it's not my strong suit.
- No one cares.
- Yeah, you know They don't care.
This is here, it's happening Shake is not shy at all.
Clearly.
The way he worded the physical questions were very off-putting.
Made me feel really uneasy.
About, like, "I'm looking for a petite girl who I can put on my shoulders at a festival.
" I'm just like, "The way you're wording that is not good.
" "Don't ask the question like that.
" - First of all, it shouldn't matter at all.
- Is he the vet? Yeah, he's the vet.
Yeah.
That's why I was telling you, I was like, "Ooh.
We'd be a Dr.
and Mrs.
" [laughs.]
Shake places importance on the physical appearance, but we both have such similar mindsets and I've never met anybody else who's kind of gone through the same life experiences.
And I think that's really what bonds us.
- We got it.
- We got this.
I've never dated an Indian guy before, but I'm here to find that person that makes me complete.
[Deepti.]
How are you? - [Shake.]
Good.
You sound cheerful.
- I'm always cheerful.
You always are.
I like that about you.
- Yeah? Thank you.
- Yeah.
You're this bubbly little woman.
[chuckles.]
[Deepti.]
I know that, like, we connect.
- Yeah.
- [Deepti.]
But did I ever tell you that I lost a ton of weight? [Shake.]
No.
[Deepti.]
Um Like, close to, like, you know, 70, 80 pounds, probably.
[Shake.]
Wow.
How the hell am I the one who's, like, asking girls their, you know Like, these kind of superficial questions [Deepti.]
Mm-hmm.
And, like, nobody else is? Yeah.
And then I kind of felt kind of ashamed, embarrassed that I did.
And I'm like, "Wow, this is the experiment where you're not supposed to even, like, think about that stuff.
" And I'm like, "How am I thinking about that the way I am?" Just ironic.
- I was really chubby growing up, actually.
- [Deepti.]
Really? Yeah.
I think I've had a lot of body image issues for myself.
Because I was out of shape growing up and I was always kind of uncomfortable, I kind of would compensate by being with somebody in good shape.
I I'm, like I'm, like kind of looking at it objectively now, probably as a result of this experience, and it's like, is this a reflection of my own body issues? You know what I mean? It kind of is 'cause, like, everybody has their demons and maybe I had more demons in this department than I thought.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you shared that with me and, like, I just love that you're being so vulnerable.
It makes me so happy.
You're so confident and you're so strong and, like, the way you handled it was really impressive.
Aww I think it's so sweet that you said that I was confident in all these, but I really wasn't feeling that and I had to take a step back and kind of regroup and kind of, like, do my self-talk, 'cause I'm not always the most confident.
I had a lot of issues with self-esteem and, you know, feeling like I wasn't worth it or all those things, you know what I mean? [Shake.]
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know.
Yeah.
I think the potential that we have here is, like, really great.
And I totally see a future with you and, like, I was just waiting to see this vulnerable side to you.
I think, you know, I think things might really work out with us.
Yeah.
I really do.
Aww [Deepti sighs.]
That just gave me butterflies.
Whenever you feel low down When you're feeling heavy I'll be whatever you need You can put your weight on me Hello.
[Kyle.]
Well, well, well.
- What are you wearing? - [Kyle.]
What am I wearing? [laughs.]
That was a genuine laugh over there.
[Shaina.]
I did care for Shayne.
But Natalie, she came out very strong with her feelings for Shayne.
She was claiming her territory.
So, my pride got in the way of if he had that connection with another woman, why would I want to put myself out there? And right now, Kyle's giving me affirmation.
I love that he, right away, like, he knew it was me that he wanted.
What woman doesn't want a man to know right away? So effortless talking to you.
Like, you gave me the chills right now.
- I did? - Yeah.
- Why? - I don't know.
I just had such a good feeling.
I'm trying.
That's why I'm drawn to you, because you literally pull shit right out of my mouth.
[Shaina.]
Don't get me wrong.
I obviously am drawn to you Stop.
You're making me nervous.
but I'm, like, vetting you.
[Kyle.]
Huh.
Well, you're an intellectual, clearly.
You're very intelligent.
Thanks.
So are you.
You never went to school? [Kyle.]
No.
I love that.
I didn't go to college either.
- Really? - [Shaina.]
No.
- I think college is a waste of money.
- Yeah, I agree.
It wasn't worth it for me.
I love your mind.
It's It's Yeah, it's a little com Pretty complex.
- It is very complex.
- Thanks.
It's scary a little bit.
[laughs.]
Do you have faith? Are you anti-faith? Would you go to church with me on Sundays? [Kyle.]
My mom grew up religious.
They grew up Catholic.
[Shaina.]
Okay.
Faith is definitely important to me.
Definitely how I was raised and how I go through life is, like, being raised, Christian.
[Kyle.]
Now, I'm not religious at all.
Um [exhales deeply.]
So, like I'm, like, trying to be calm.
- Do you Are you atheist? - Yeah.
[Shaina.]
Oh.
I know.
However you're feeling, I can understand.
- [Shaina.]
You do? - Yeah.
We need to talk about it.
[chuckles.]
Oh.
- Let's say we get married.
- Okay.
- What if we have babies, right? - [Kyle.]
Okay.
Little Kylie's running around.
And they're at the dinner table.
Okay? - [Kyle.]
And you say, "Let's say grace.
" - Yes.
I'll try and fart or burp and say, "Who's Grace?" No! See? That's a question I need to ask you.
You're asking me if I'm okay with you instilling the religion into our children? - Yeah.
- [Kyle.]
That's fine.
- [Shaina.]
But, like, what about for you? - The kids will get to decide like I did.
I want to know why you're an atheist.
[Kyle chuckles.]
I just believe science.
God is science.
But the science doesn't check out.
Says who? Says a lot of people.
I am resistant to brainwashing.
I think you are brainwashed.
- I could argue the same.
- [Shaina.]
Not really.
You think we are accidentally here.
- It's not an accident.
- Exactly.
No, look, it's literally, like - So, you believe the Big Bang Theory? - Yeah.
It's explained.
It makes sense.
- No, it doesn't It makes no sense.
- So, you don't believe in evolution? - I do not believe in it at all.
- Stop it.
- I do not.
- That's so fucked up.
- Oh my God.
Kyle - There's some guy who wrote a book.
- Some guy? - Yeah, wrote the Bible.
Have you ever read it? - I've read parts of it and I am - So, exactly.
Every atheist has said that and until you read it, you can't say anything about it.
- You'll never change my mind.
- I'm not trying to.
I know, but I'm also not gonna, like, understand that.
- I'll pray for you.
- I Shaina has extreme views on religion, and I have extreme views on religion.
Deep down inside, I knew it was too good to be true.
- Ouch.
- Before we started we were ending [Kyle.]
I could definitely fall in love with Shaina.
But, like, we are such polar opposites.
And I don't think either of us are gonna change each other.
And it scares me.
In another life Maybe I was floating away a little bit, and I was just grounded.
[Shaina.]
Yeah.
In another life [upbeat music plays.]
Hey! It's written in the stars That you'll be mine, all mine 'Cause it's written in Written in the stars, yeah Honestly, really being here just It really made me question, did I know the people that I was with before? Like, how was I in relationships? Was it real love? I'll be very honest, for my situation, - I have not gone for a girl - [Jason.]
Yeah.
like Deeps, but I feel really fucking good about it.
I'm beyond words how excited I am about finding someone like Deeps.
So, do you see yourself having kids? Like, how many kids do you want? I definitely don't want just one.
I want as many as I can afford.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good way to put it.
This is definitely my first time feeling this particular way about someone.
Without a doubt, I have never felt so close, so deep, so strong, so quickly.
Even in some of the Indian traditions, like touching the man's feet when I get married.
- Like, fuck that.
- I am right there with you.
I've come a long way, getting past superficial motivations for things and working through my insecurities.
I love being a vet, I hate the lifestyle of a vet.
So, owning your own practice, you'd have to be able to be flexible.
Not for a little while.
I like to be financially independent completely Me, too.
We're gonna have some smart, awesome kids.
I just know it.
Aww Deepti is like a puzzle piece that fits.
She fits in a way nobody else has ever fit.
["Could We Be Happy" playing.]
I've been waiting round For you to call my name But I don't hear the sounds No, nothing's gonna change I don't even know Where we're supposed to go From here - Hello.
- [Shake.]
Hey.
- Hi.
- [Shake.]
How's it goin'? - Good, how are you? - [Shake.]
I'm good.
[Shake exhales deeply.]
I wanted to just say something from the heart here.
So, when coincidence seems too convenient, I prefer to call that fate.
And I've never met someone who seems to understand me the way you do.
Our stories are so similar and they've already begun to intertwine.
You make me feel some type of way.
[Deepti chuckles.]
I'm gonna ask you to approach the wall here.
- [Deepti.]
Oh, I wish I could feel you.
- [Shake.]
I know.
I wish the same thing.
So, I'm gonna get down on one knee.
And, Deepti, will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me? Oh my gosh.
Abi.
I never thought that I would meet someone like you and Oh, man, I feel like fate has just gravitated us towards each other, and a thousand times yes! - [Shake.]
Yes! - Yes, yes! - Yes! All right! - I wish I could hug you right now.
- I know.
Oh my gosh, and then some.
- Abi, can't wait to see you.
- [Deepti exhales.]
- Wow, that feels amazing.
[Deepti.]
Whoo.
- We're engaged! - We're engaged.
- We're fucking engaged.
- I can't believe it.
[Deepti.]
Ah! - Rest of our lives, baby.
- Rest of our lives.
- Oh my God.
I just got goosebumps.
- Ah! I'm so excited! Got me spinning around Got me spinning round now You're in my head You're in my head Bye.
[Shake sighs.]
[squeals.]
- I'm engaged! - Yeah! Congratulations, hon! [squeals.]
Thank you! Thank you! Thanks.
[all cheering.]
- [man 1.]
Really? - [man 2.]
That is [Iyanna.]
So, I think if we're going to get married at the end of this, I want you to know everything.
Yeah.
So, do do you think there's, like, one thing that would be, like, the complete deal breaker in a marriage? Like, "Nah, this happened? This divorce is inevitable.
" For me, it's cheating.
And I mean, like, any form of cheating.
Like emotional cheating, or like, physically cheating.
So, do you [sighs.]
Do you think you have any any traumas that you're still, like, working through? So, I was sexually assaulted when I was 17.
- Hmm.
- [Iyanna.]
Like, my heart is healed.
It's just, like, sometimes my body remembers.
I mean, it can be difficult.
Like, I'm very, very, very selective on who I allow to get very, very close to me.
- Yeah.
- I can make quick acquaintances, very Like, that's fine.
But when it comes down to it, like, who am I investing my time with? - Mm-hmm.
- And it's not that many people, because I'm just very, very selective.
Mm-hmm.
You are one resilient person.
It doesn't feel fresh, but, um, there's still some, like, lingering um, things that I don't know, make me, I guess, like, have reflexes.
'Cause, I mean, I already struggle with trust in general and strangely enough, like, I feel like I trust you enough.
I mean, I do trust I understand you, like, extremely well.
- [exhales.]
That's huge.
- Yeah.
It is big.
[chuckles.]
Listen, outside of my family and my close friends, like no one no one knows this.
- [Iyanna.]
Mm-hmm.
- Um [sighs.]
A year ago - Almost lost my life.
- What? I had an issue with someone who I thought was a really close friend of mine.
There'd been friction between us for for quite some time.
We We had had, like, an issue.
I never saw the knife in his hand.
[gasps.]
[Jarrette.]
I was stabbed.
Oh my God.
- [sighs.]
- [Iyanna gasps.]
Yeah.
I end up passing out.
That's that's all I remember.
I woke up the next morning and have all these fucking tubes down my nose.
Didn't even know that I was gonna make it.
Probably one of the lowest points of my life.
- Oh my God.
- [Jarrette sighs.]
- Jesus.
- [Jarrette.]
Right.
I haven't had anybody there to go through this with.
I'm so sorry you went through that.
That's a lot.
[somber music playing.]
Dang, Jarrette.
[sniffles.]
I'm so sorry.
So, everything happens for a reason.
That's how I gotta look at it.
Yeah.
Honestly, it feels nice to open up to you.
And then for you to receive it so well, it feels nice.
I don't think I have anything else to think about anymore.
I think it's you.
Whoo.
I've made connections with you and Mallory.
And it's just, my brain is flustered.
I've literally been going back and forth every day.
[upbeat music playing.]
You don't know me, I know you want to I don't say please nor arigato Good luck, gents.
[Brandon.]
All right, fellas.
Enjoy yourself.
Make me proud.
Are you ready We've been having such deep conversations, I kind of bypassed all the basic shit.
- [Mallory.]
What do you mean? - What you do for work? I'm the communications manager for a non-profit.
This is the first time I've heard that.
I didn't ask this.
Really? Maybe we didn't talk about this.
And what about you? - [Jarrette.]
So, I wear a couple hats.
- Okay.
[Jarrette.]
So, my full-time job is I'm a healthcare consultant, and on the side, some of my entrepreneurial things I do, I cut hair.
So, part-time barber.
Couple friends of mine, we buy and resell sneakers.
And then I just started my own mobile hookah business.
[Mallory.]
Wow, I like that.
So, you're a hustler for sure.
Yeah.
I have a very big entrepreneurial mind.
So, I want myself and my wife to dive into that.
- Like, let's own property.
- [Mallory.]
Yeah.
I want to make sure our kids are fine when they go to college, grow up.
That works.
Yeah.
It's so important to me.
I really love that about you.
I don't know if I mentioned this, but I'm also a homeowner.
Oh.
Yes, I do.
I own a two flat.
- Hey, okay.
- Yeah.
It's my investments.
What do you think that would look like with your husband? I wanna be with somebody who is, like, a partner in all that, right? We can decide, do we want to live in your condo, or do we want to live in my house? Or do we want to rent both out and get something else? - I do have a dog.
So - [Jarrette.]
What kind of dog you got? I got a German Shepherd.
- I fucking love German Shepherds.
- Do you? She's a huge baby.
She's two and a half years old.
- [Jarrette.]
You be snuggling with her? - Oh my God.
Yeah.
She's very cuddly.
[Jarrette chuckles.]
Are you a big cuddler? I'm definitely a cuddler for sure.
I like to cuddle.
Um Feel like I haven't done it in a really long time.
[Jarrette.]
Mm-hmm.
You wanna cuddle with me? [Mallory.]
You sound like you'd be a good cuddler.
[laughs.]
[laughing.]
You're pumping through my veins [Mallory.]
Well, good night.
Sweet dreams, JerBear.
I'll do with you I'll do with you You make me wanna look crazy Like diving with my eyes closed Like free falling, just let go - Yeah, I need - Pretend I'm a lady and you're trying to Oh, yeah, bro.
[laughing and chattering.]
[Mallory.]
I have good connections with both Sal and Jarrette, but I definitely feel like Jarrette is a little bit more vocal about, like, seeing me in marriage.
But I want to stay open because I know that he's talking to other people.
He's talking to other people, so is Sal.
I think it's important to try to explore every conversation, every option.
It's just a lot of time to sit with my feelings and my thoughts.
And it's scary, and I'm scared.
So I'm emotional.
Um So, yeah.
Always in my head Always, always in my head [Salvador.]
Mal, how you feeling? [Mallory.]
I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling really good.
Yeah.
I've thought about you a lot.
It's just really interesting.
Yeah, or just finding myself, like, thinking about you, you know, like, throughout the day.
Obviously, you know, I really like you and [Mallory.]
Yeah.
And getting to know you has been very exciting.
It was so fast, but so slow at the same time.
- Yeah.
- [Salvador.]
You know? It's - [Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
- I know it's a lot.
[Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
You know, it's, like, the rational part of me and my brain is like, "What the fuck are you doing?" - Like, this is crazy.
- [Salvador.]
Mmm.
[Mallory.]
But, I think maybe for the first time I'm not listening to that.
Yeah.
This whole experience has definitely made me feel like I've dated the wrong way my whole life.
This has changed me a lot, and made me a better man.
I really do feel like I'm falling for you.
And that's what I feel has been the scariest thing.
You make me want to take that risk with you.
[Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
So, I did prepare something.
It's super cheesy.
[Mallory.]
Oh.
Okay.
You ready for this? [Mallory.]
I'm ready.
[breathing rapidly.]
[ukulele tune playing.]
Hey, Mal, it's been I just realized you and I Ar e two peas in a pod What a terrible joke Truthfully, I have to say I like my time spent with you the most Let's go somewhere remote I hope this makes you smile The way you make me smile [finishing note.]
Oh my God.
You're so cute! That was so good.
I am so red.
I cannot Oh man - That was, like, the nicest thing - [Salvador laughs.]
anyone's ever done for me.
Oh my God, you're so cute.
Write a song for me I wanna be the one Who makes you feel the way Feel the way, feel the way The one who makes you feel The one that makes you feel [romantic music plays.]
[exhales deeply.]
[Shake.]
I think in the past I've always been trying to run away from my culture.
I honestly think that in my prior ways I would've passed over an opportunity to connect with a girl like Deepti.
As soon as I see her, it's gonna be two hands.
Boom.
I already let her know.
From here on out, she's within a two-mile radius from me, that booty is not safe.
[exhales sharply.]
I think Shake does place importance on appearance and physical aspects because, you know, to connect physically is important to him, but eliminating the physical piece of it has created such a bond and such a foundational stability for us.
He's actually this really sweet, articulate, sensitive, and fun, outgoing person.
I just think he's just a beautiful person inside out and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him.
[Shake.]
I've learned physical attraction isn't the biggest thing.
My test for if I can date a girl or not, which is, if I can put her on my shoulders at a music festival, then she's within a physical range that I would date, which, you know, looking back at, is such a superficial thing.
And I think I put on a front and try to be cool or try to be edgy.
All kinds of things that I use to protect myself.
I'm very fortunate to have been a part of this experiment and I think I landed an incredible woman because of it.
I think that Shake would not have gone for me if we were in the real world.
I think Shake definitely wants the most attractive woman in the room, kind of.
And so, I don't know, I'm just waiting to see what his initial reaction is, what his facial expressions are.
When I touch him, I hope, you know, I feel that spark and, you know, that he feels it back.
I hope that he sees that we can build a life together, even though I don't look like the typical girl he would go for.
I hope he likes me.
And I'm terrified.
I'd say I'm definitely terrified.
[dramatic music builds.]
- Holy shit.
- [Deepti.]
Hi.
- [Shake.]
Oh my God.
- [Deepti laughs.]
Oh my God.
- Oh my God.
- Hi! Oh my God.
Oh my God.
You're so beautiful.
Holy shit.
- Hi! - Look at that booty.
Oh my God.
You're perfect.
- Hi! - You're gonna be my fucking wife.
You're gonna be my husband.
Oh my God.
He was just like Just so surprised to see me.
I don't think he expected me to look the way I looked.
[laughs.]
- [Shake moaning.]
- He went straight for the ass.
[laughs.]
Um, which I love.
[Shake.]
Oh my God.
- I have something for you.
- Yeah? [Shake.]
Mm-hmm.
Can't live without you I want you and only you - You did not just do that.
- I'd do it for you.
[laughing.]
In the Indian culture, when you get married, the wife touches the husband's feet, and I told him I'm not doing that because we're equals.
And so the fact that he touched my feet was perfect.
He's perfect.
[whispering.]
Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh.
It's stunning.
You and only you [Shake.]
All right.
Here you go.
Wow.
- How's it look? - It looks stunning.
[Shake.]
You look stunning.
It's crazy.
I can't believe I have a ring on my finger.
Like I've wanted this my whole life.
[laughs.]
[Deepti.]
I'm so happy.
 I'm so happy.
Oh, I can't believe I waited 30 whole years to find my person.
[Shake.]
Holy shit.
You are so handsome.
Little puppy dog.
- [squeals.]
- Well You're so cute! Come here.
Even though I've dated so many blonde girls and and white girls in the past, Deeps is just perfect.
Deepti is one of the best things to ever happen to me.
I hope I'm gonna make her as happy as she deserves to be.
That's what I'm nervous about.
Honestly, like, you're everything that I would want.
I mean it.
It just gave me butterflies.
I want you and only you I got nothing left to lose [Shake moans.]
- We're gonna have so much fun.
- Mm-hmm.
[whispers.]
And I'm gonna get you pregnant.
- Get outta here.
- All right.
Here, take that.
- I'll see you soon.
- Okay.
[Deepti laughs.]
Whoo.
[exhales sharply.]
[Shake.]
I'm all right with that.
I want you and only you Take me back to where we were before I know that you want to go for sure In the past, I've been way too harsh on people, been way too stubborn.
But going through this, I realize that the ultimate goal is who can I be the happiest with? Shaina puts up with my strong personality.
She knows how to make me happy, and whenever I hear her voice, she just, like, lifts my spirits.
Am I gonna throw away an amazing woman because we disagree on religion? I've never had that dilemma, but my head has never been more clear.
[Shaina.]
Hello.
Good morning, beautiful.
[mouthing.]
Oh my God.
[Kyle.]
How are you? Um I'm okay.
How are you? I'm I'm feeling amazing.
- You are? - How are you feeling? Um, I'm good.
I have some questions.
Okay.
Our differences, like, the clear differences Yeah.
- Like, our core values.
- Yeah.
Does that, like, scare you? Like [Kyle.]
I think that, at this stage of my life, I can't.
I'll never find that perfect person where everything aligns so perfectly.
But our big things? They don't change how much love I have for you.
Does it scare you? There's a part of me that does feel right.
- Yeah.
- And then, I'm like, "Will we combust?" We have to risk it, honey.
- Right.
- Because I don't wanna have regrets.
- Do you see the box? - I do.
[chuckles.]
- [mouthing.]
Oh my God.
- [Kyle sighs deeply.]
- Are you holding it? - Do you want me to hold it? - I want you to, yeah.
- Okay.
You're holding my mother's engagement ring.
You remind me so much of my mother.
She was very, very religious, and she makes me the happiest.
I want someone who resembles her.
So Shaina Can you open your box, please? [pulsating rhythm builds.]
Oh my God.
Will you marry me? [dramatic music builds.]
Yes.
[chuckles.]
[laughing.]
Oh my God.
I'm dying to just grab your face and kiss you.
Baby, just because I got ya It don't mean I can wait - Do you know how much a kiss means? - Everything.
Yeah, it's the best feeling in the world to kiss somebody that you love.
I'm kind of in shock right now.
I know, and I didn't expect to ever pull that out.
I brought it with anticipation that maybe I would find somebody, and you are the perfect person for it.
I'm in shock.
I haven't put it on yet.
Are you excited to see me? I'm so excited to see you.
Oh my God.
[Kyle.]
I'll see you.
Okay.
Goodbye, beautiful.
I'm looking for the light Who am I to fall in line? In the forest of my mind Back-and-forth I go Back-and-forth I go Back-and-forth I go In the forest of my mind I just need, like, a second.
[inhales.]
[interviewer.]
So, why So, why are you crying? I guess it's just the idea of, like, being engaged again, and, um I just don't want to make, like, another mistake.
I care about Kyle a lot, but there's issues.
Huge things that we both do not see eye-to-eye on.
Sorry.
It's terrifying.
I made my past mistakes in not having integrity and staying true to myself.
And I Am I making that same mistake? I don't know.
[instrumental music plays.]
Joey, give me a pump-up speech.
I want you, the quietest one.
- Shayne, you're gonna do great, buddy.
- Okay.
That's it? - [Joey.]
Yeah.
- [laughter.]
God, you are bad.
You will never be my best man at my wedding.
- All right.
Cheers, boys.
- Cheers, boys.
This whole experiment's been crazy, but, like, somehow it works.
I developed strong feelings for two people.
I had deep, deep feelings for Shaina, but Shaina was always hesitant.
I mean, she never really actually told me how she felt.
Natalie asserted herself, and she just made me feel so safe and secure, and that's what I wanted.
Shayne, I just need to let you know you're my favorite.
- Oh.
- [both chuckle.]
When I first met Natalie, we had the most smoothest conversation.
We laugh constantly with each other, but we can also get to a deeper connection as well.
- Tell me about your family.
- My mom is, like, my best friend.
Um So, we I FaceTime her all the time.
I love that you have a really close relationship with your mom.
And you definitely make me feel comfortable.
[Shayne.]
She makes me feel excited.
Honestly, it's that euphoria you feel from someone when it's, like, she just gives you butterflies.
And I always said, when you know, you kind of know.
You just have that feeling.
It's wild.
- Yes! - [Shayne.]
You got it? [Natalie.]
Yes! Oh my God.
This is so exciting.
- [Shayne.]
There we go.
Perfect.
- I'm so happy.
- I can't believe you made this happen.
- Honey, I will make everything hap Whatever you want to happen, I will make it happen.
I've brought one girl home to my mom in my entire life.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
I've talked to you and gotten such deeper, like, connections with you in these, what, seven days, than I talked to her for six months.
It's been such a short period of time, but I feel like I've known her forever.
I mean, I'm riding so high on her and I'm ready to propose to this woman, 100%.
[chuckles.]
It's crazy to think.
- [Shayne.]
Hello.
- [woman.]
Hi.
[Shayne.]
Hi.
[exhales deeply.]
You know, so, I'm trying to think of all of my thoughts and emotions about how I feel, and when I think about this whole experience, it's like This is exactly how I feel like we were supposed to meet.
Are you okay? I'm good.
Um [dramatic music plays.]
So [Shayne.]
Is it Shaina? [Shaina.]
Yeah.
I'm just Would love for you to hear me out real quick.
[Shayne.]
Okay.
[sighs.]
Um Okay.
[heartbeat thumping.]
I just wanted you to know that I do have deep feelings for you.
[dramatic music plays.]
[softly.]
What the fuck.
[sighs deeply.]
[quietly.]
Fuck.
[sighing.]
We've been waiting All this time Anticipating That moments arrive
[exhales deeply.]
[Nick.]
I have spent countless hours engaging with potential partners and, after all of that, like, I've actually found my wife.
It's just so crazy that we were able to do that, like, through pods.
It's so fricking weird.
[dramatic music intensifies.]
[Danielle.]
I am completely in love with Nick.
He's not only my fiancé, he's my best friend, and I'm about to see him for the first time.
[music stops.]
My God.
[acoustic guitar music plays.]
Hello.
I feel my cold heart caving in I see the daylight breaking through - You're beautiful.
- You're beautiful.
Will make it out of the dark We can follow the stars Want to see it all Feel it all with you Feel it all with you - I can feel your heart beating.
- Really pumping there.
Mine is just as much, yeah.
- Seems like it's been a lifetime.
- Yeah, it has been.
- [Nick.]
You look so pretty.
- [Danielle.]
Yeah? - [laughing.]
I was so scared.
- Why were you so scared? Why do you think? I was like, "What if he doesn't think I'm cute?" Of course I think you're cute.

- My fiancé.
[chuckles.]

Being able to see the face behind the voice was just amazing.
He has the most beautiful blue eyes, and I have blue eyes.
Our kids are gonna be gorgeous.
I can't wait.
I'll remember this moment for the rest of my life.
I was nervous, so I put on teeth whiteners twice today.
- Today? - Yeah.
- I'm so awkward.

Oh my [Danielle.]
Oh, I like the socks.

- I figured.
Oh, he's cute.
[Nick.]
Yep.
It's your dog now too.
He's been looking for a mommy for a long time.
- Now he's finally got one.
- He's got one.
I can't believe that I fell in love with someone, and then I didn't get to see them, and then when I did see them, it only made it better.
- We're an engaged couple.
- [quietly.]
I know.
You're gonna have to get used to me being like this all the time.
[Nick chuckles.]
This experience, it's changed my life.
You took all my hesitation Shattered all my expectations Handed me an invitation to your heart [Danielle.]
I already am anticipating the wedding day.
I am so confident about the relationship that we're going to have, that I'm ready to be married to him tomorrow.
I am not going to let anything get in the way of this.
Can't wait to just start this wonderful life we have planned.
I cannot wait to go on this romantic getaway with Nick, because I think that it's just going to continue to develop what we've already started developing, and I'm gonna get to spend every single waking second with him in Mexico, and I cannot imagine anything better than that.
- Love you.
- I love you.
Now, I just get to work on spending the rest of my life with him.
[laughs.]
We'll be all right [upbeat music plays.]
I'm making moves Oh, I'm ready to go I'm making moves - [woman 1.]
Cheers.
- It's been crazy, bro.
I am a believer.
I'm never gonna stop Until I'm on top Let me ask you a question.
Have you ever thought of growing a beard? I don't grow a very good beard.
You're an attractive guy.
Imagine with the beard? - Game over.
- Ooh.
I'm making moves Oh, I'm ready to go I'm making moves Oh, yeah As crazy as this shit sound like on the outside looking in, this shit is working.
- [Iyanna.]
Yeah.
- And I don't know how.
I feel more and more certain every single time I speak with you.
I definitely feel like I've known you for forever.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy? So, would you feel comfortable if I moved in and I wanted to change up some stuff to make it feel more like my home? Our home? I mean, long as it's not, like, nothing too crazy, like, you Not, like, pink everywhere? No.
[both laughing.]
- Did we have a sex talk yet? - We haven't.
- Are you a very affectionate person, or - I can be.
I don't have to be making out.
I'm not a big make-outer, but - What? - [laughs.]
You don't like to kiss? I'm not gonna lie.
Like, saliva freaks me out.
- [blows raspberry laughing.]
- Is that weird? 'Cause I think about how many enzymes are in your saliva, and how they, like, eat away at Yo.
I've never thought about any [sighs.]
My brain be doing the most, bro.
- Oh my God.
[chuckles.]
- Like, that's what Oh God.
Like, just thinking about it.
Uh-uh.
When I think of intimacy, kissing is involved.
[laughs.]
Yes, but I don't wanna be, like, making out for, like, five plus minutes.
[laughing.]
Stop laughing at me! Stop! - [both laughing.]
- Leave me alone.
She's about, "Nah, don't kiss me too long.
" "How much time we done been kissing for? Four minutes, 37 seconds.
All right.
" "You got 30 more seconds, homie.
" [both chuckling.]
[Jarrette.]
It changes every day.
Because yesterday I felt like Mallory and I had a really good day.
And then today I feel like me and Iyanna had a really good day.
So, right now, it's Iyanna.
Yesterday it was Mallory.
It's tough.

Maybe it was.
You were getting fitted for some suit, like a business suit or whatever.
Taking all the measurements.
That's what you were doing.
- I was sitting there, watching.
- [Mallory.]
I like that dream.
I woke up like, "Yo, what? How am I dreaming about somebody I've never met?" [chuckles.]
I was like, "What is this woman doing to me?" [chuckling.]
[Jarrette.]
For real.
How the fuck is this even happening? How is this even possible that I have not seen this person, but yet I'm starting to develop feelings for this person? Damn.
- [Jarrette.]
I have a question for you.
- [Mallory.]
Hmm.

- [Jarrette.]
All right, cool.
If that's what you want, we gonna do that.

- I keep holding on 'Cause I got you [chuckles.]
[Jarrette.]
Have you thought about what life or marriage would look like between us? [Mallory.]
For sure.
Bruh.
[both laughing.]
[Mallory.]
If you turn me on [Jarrette chuckles.]
through a conversation, I'm not worried about anything else.
- Sorry, I'm so awkward right now.
- [Jarrette.]
Don't be scared now.
[Mallory.]
What if you see me and I'm not what you pictured? I'll be fine with what you look like.
I'm not worried about that at all.
Oh my God.
[both laughing.]
[Jarrette.]
Let me tell you.
Well, sweet dreams.
- Hopefully, you dream about me too.
- Yeah.
[laughs.]
Baby, 'cause if this is what it feels To be catching feels, baby - Oh, oh - Oh, oh Hola.

What game? I'm excited.
- We're gonna be playing Never Have I Ever.
- Ooh.
I really like that.
- [Mallory.]
Do you? - Yeah.
[Mallory.]
I bet you do.
Let's see.
Never have I ever slept with someone of the same sex.
- I have never.
- Okay.
I have, so, I will drink.
- Oh my goodness.
I didn't expect that.
- [laughing.]
Yeah.
But, okay.
I like that.
This is rated R now.
No! [both laughing.]
Okay, never have I ever had sex in a public place.
- Well, that's a lie.
I definitely have.
- Really? Mm-hmm.
Have you? - No, I haven't.
It's always been - Really? Yeah, it's been behind closed doors.
Some kind of doors, you know.
Okay.

I don't know, it's fun to do it with someone else.
Oh my God.
It's Is there AC in here? [laughs.]

[Mallory.]
Never have I ever got a tattoo.
I will drink because I have one.
[in Spanish.]
Where? [in English.]
Under my boob.
Ooh.
What is it of? [Mallory.]
Um, it's a tree.
Like the tree of life and just kind of, like, a family tree.
Ooh, yes.
I like that.
 I like that.
How about you? I have to drink.
Yeah.
Well, dang.
What do you have? Family is really big for me too.
So, my siblings and I, we all decided to get tattoos.
- Like, sibling tattoos.
- [Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
It's supposed to be, like, four little dots that represent all of us.
Oh, I like that, that's cute.
Yeah.
That's the only one I have.
Oh.
I really like this.
Yeah, this is really nice.
This is fun.
Yeah.
I'm really, really enjoying this.
Please, give me a glass of bubbly I want to feel how lucky I am with you I'm dying to know if I can be yours And you will be mine [melancholy music plays.]
[whispers.]
Oh my God.
What the fuck is going on? I listen to my heart Beating in my chest And I think Of you Just you It's you that I want Just you You that I need Just you Hello? Natalie? [Natalie sighs.]
[Shayne.]
Are you okay? [Natalie.]
Yesterday, after our conversation, I was nervous that I wouldn't talk to you again.
If it's not you, I don't think there's anyone else here for me.
[Shayne.]
Whatever I have to do to prove to you that I'm fully focused on you, I will do it.
I wanna Honestly, I just wanna hold you and hug you and make sure you're okay.
Hey, do you see on your cart? - What? - Do you see anything on your cart? [Natalie.]
What do you mean? Did you give me a rose? [chuckles.]
[Shayne.]
It's corny and cheesy, sure, but I just wanted to let you know, like, you are a magical person.
- Thanks.
- [both chuckle.]
You annoyed the fuck out of me yesterday, but [chuckles.]
Yeah, I feel like that's okay.
[chuckles.]
[Natalie.]
I feel differently about you than I ever have for someone else.
[Shayne.]
All I care about is making you happy and there is gonna be no more confusion.
I just wanna focus on us, and that's it.
Really.
Okay.
And these old walls were mine And this is home - [Shayne.]
So, question.
- Okay.
Will you be my girlfriend? This is where it started [Natalie.]
Yeah, of course.
This is where it started [chuckles.]
This is where my heart is I couldn't be happier.
Me too.
This is where it started [song ends.]
[Shaina.]
Did you have a date with Shayne just now? - What? - What happened? [Natalie.]
He asked me to be his girlfriend.
Are those champs? Are you ready for war? Bang bang Down they go, yeah Bang bang Can we popsy-pops? I'm, like, emotionally exhausted.
[chuckles.]
Are you ready for war? [cork pops.]
Tell me, baby Will you be waiting? Natalie and me have the strongest connection, but I have feelings for Shaina too, yes.
I have a romantic connection with both of them, 100%.
I just need to know where they stand and how they feel about me.
- We're all coming out better, regardless.
- 100%.
- So, who's your secondary wife? - Nunya.
- Sorry? - Nunya business! [laughing.]
Yeah, yeah Hello? - Hello.
- Hi.
- [Shayne.]
How you doing, honey? - I'm good, honey.
[Shayne.]
You're toots, not honey.
- Yeah.
You're honey.
- I know.
I fucked up.
- Are you in your comfy clothes? - I am.
- What are you wearing? - I'm wearing these men's - Men's? Ex-boyfriend men's stuff or what? - No.
Never! No, they're like these men's gray joggers, with a black crop top.
[Shayne.]
Oh You are so fucking hot.
What's going on? Why are you holding back? I just don't want another failed engagement.
I don't wanna look stupid.
You're not gonna look stupid, so you don't need a hundred reassurances.
I just need, like, just to see that you're in it.
- [Shaina.]
Yeah, I told you that I care.
- Fight for it, then, or something.
- You know I care.
Of course I like you.
- [Shayne.]
Yeah.
[Shaina.]
But again, I won't play second fiddle to anybody.
[Shayne.]
I get that, trust me.
I'm not stupid.
I know that.
Shayne.
[chuckling.]
What? What was the conversation today? [Shayne.]
What do you mean? - Natalie? - [sighs deeply.]
I She said you asked her to be your girlfriend.
Did you say those things to Natalie? [Shayne.]
I love these questions.
- [Shaina.]
Did No - I love these questions.
Well, no, she made sure that she told me that you said that.
[Shayne.]
Oh my God - [Shaina.]
I'm asking you a question.
- I know, but I'm like, who cares? - I care.
- Why? - 'Cause I care.
- Why do you care about that? She knows that I'm talking to you.
Yeah, but if you have a girlfriend, that's a different story.
[Shayne chuckling.]
Oh my God.
Whatever she says, why does it matter? Shaina? Shayne.
Dude, just be honest.
Yes or no? You're making it way more difficult.
- Yes, I did.
- Okay.
That's all you had to say.
Okay.
There you go.
[sighs.]
I'm sorry, I guess [exhales deeply.]
Is it over, then, or what? If you have a girlfriend, yeah.
- That changes things, honey.
- [Shayne.]
Okay.
[sighs.]
Let it hurt Let it bleed [Shaina.]
I still adore you.
[Shayne.]
I hope so.
Gotta hold on to that someone Got nowhere to hide So let it hurt Let it bleed - Feel it all - [sighs.]
Lose everything - [sighs.]
- Let it hurt Just let it bleed Feel it all [Shayne.]
Damn it.
Shaina's like She's a fantastic person.
And I might never see her again, or talk to her again, and [sighs.]
Yeah, it just sucks.
Let it hurt Let it bleed Feel it all - Whoo! - Good luck.
Time Ohh Better than we've ever been I'm not working out.
I make bad diet choices.
Yeah, not winning any body contests over here but, you know, it's not my strong suit.
- No one cares.
- Yeah, you know They don't care.
This is here, it's happening Shake is not shy at all.
Clearly.
The way he worded the physical questions were very off-putting.
Made me feel really uneasy.
About, like, "I'm looking for a petite girl who I can put on my shoulders at a festival.
" I'm just like, "The way you're wording that is not good.
" "Don't ask the question like that.
" - First of all, it shouldn't matter at all.
- Is he the vet? Yeah, he's the vet.
Yeah.
That's why I was telling you, I was like, "Ooh.
We'd be a Dr.
and Mrs.
" [laughs.]
Shake places importance on the physical appearance, but we both have such similar mindsets and I've never met anybody else who's kind of gone through the same life experiences.
And I think that's really what bonds us.
- We got it.
- We got this.
I've never dated an Indian guy before, but I'm here to find that person that makes me complete.
[Deepti.]
How are you? - [Shake.]
Good.
You sound cheerful.
- I'm always cheerful.
You always are.
I like that about you.
- Yeah? Thank you.
- Yeah.
You're this bubbly little woman.
[chuckles.]
[Deepti.]
I know that, like, we connect.
- Yeah.
- [Deepti.]
But did I ever tell you that I lost a ton of weight? [Shake.]
No.
[Deepti.]
Um Like, close to, like, you know, 70, 80 pounds, probably.
[Shake.]
Wow.
How the hell am I the one who's, like, asking girls their, you know Like, these kind of superficial questions [Deepti.]
Mm-hmm.
And, like, nobody else is? Yeah.
And then I kind of felt kind of ashamed, embarrassed that I did.
And I'm like, "Wow, this is the experiment where you're not supposed to even, like, think about that stuff.
" And I'm like, "How am I thinking about that the way I am?" Just ironic.
- I was really chubby growing up, actually.
- [Deepti.]
Really? Yeah.
I think I've had a lot of body image issues for myself.
Because I was out of shape growing up and I was always kind of uncomfortable, I kind of would compensate by being with somebody in good shape.
I I'm, like I'm, like kind of looking at it objectively now, probably as a result of this experience, and it's like, is this a reflection of my own body issues? You know what I mean? It kind of is 'cause, like, everybody has their demons and maybe I had more demons in this department than I thought.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you shared that with me and, like, I just love that you're being so vulnerable.
It makes me so happy.
You're so confident and you're so strong and, like, the way you handled it was really impressive.
Aww I think it's so sweet that you said that I was confident in all these, but I really wasn't feeling that and I had to take a step back and kind of regroup and kind of, like, do my self-talk, 'cause I'm not always the most confident.
I had a lot of issues with self-esteem and, you know, feeling like I wasn't worth it or all those things, you know what I mean? [Shake.]
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know.
Yeah.
I think the potential that we have here is, like, really great.
And I totally see a future with you and, like, I was just waiting to see this vulnerable side to you.
I think, you know, I think things might really work out with us.
Yeah.
I really do.
Aww [Deepti sighs.]
That just gave me butterflies.
Whenever you feel low down When you're feeling heavy I'll be whatever you need You can put your weight on me Hello.
[Kyle.]
Well, well, well.
- What are you wearing? - [Kyle.]
What am I wearing? [laughs.]
That was a genuine laugh over there.
[Shaina.]
I did care for Shayne.
But Natalie, she came out very strong with her feelings for Shayne.
She was claiming her territory.
So, my pride got in the way of if he had that connection with another woman, why would I want to put myself out there? And right now, Kyle's giving me affirmation.
I love that he, right away, like, he knew it was me that he wanted.
What woman doesn't want a man to know right away? So effortless talking to you.
Like, you gave me the chills right now.
- I did? - Yeah.
- Why? - I don't know.
I just had such a good feeling.
I'm trying.
That's why I'm drawn to you, because you literally pull shit right out of my mouth.
[Shaina.]
Don't get me wrong.
I obviously am drawn to you Stop.
You're making me nervous.
but I'm, like, vetting you.
[Kyle.]
Huh.
Well, you're an intellectual, clearly.
You're very intelligent.
Thanks.
So are you.
You never went to school? [Kyle.]
No.
I love that.
I didn't go to college either.
- Really? - [Shaina.]
No.
- I think college is a waste of money.
- Yeah, I agree.
It wasn't worth it for me.
I love your mind.
It's It's Yeah, it's a little com Pretty complex.
- It is very complex.
- Thanks.
It's scary a little bit.
[laughs.]
Do you have faith? Are you anti-faith? Would you go to church with me on Sundays? [Kyle.]
My mom grew up religious.
They grew up Catholic.
[Shaina.]
Okay.
Faith is definitely important to me.
Definitely how I was raised and how I go through life is, like, being raised, Christian.
[Kyle.]
Now, I'm not religious at all.
Um [exhales deeply.]
So, like I'm, like, trying to be calm.
- Do you Are you atheist? - Yeah.
[Shaina.]
Oh.
I know.
However you're feeling, I can understand.
- [Shaina.]
You do? - Yeah.
We need to talk about it.
[chuckles.]
Oh.
- Let's say we get married.
- Okay.
- What if we have babies, right? - [Kyle.]
Okay.
Little Kylie's running around.
And they're at the dinner table.
Okay? - [Kyle.]
And you say, "Let's say grace.
" - Yes.
I'll try and fart or burp and say, "Who's Grace?" No! See? That's a question I need to ask you.
You're asking me if I'm okay with you instilling the religion into our children? - Yeah.
- [Kyle.]
That's fine.
- [Shaina.]
But, like, what about for you? - The kids will get to decide like I did.
I want to know why you're an atheist.
[Kyle chuckles.]
I just believe science.
God is science.
But the science doesn't check out.
Says who? Says a lot of people.
I am resistant to brainwashing.
I think you are brainwashed.
- I could argue the same.
- [Shaina.]
Not really.
You think we are accidentally here.
- It's not an accident.
- Exactly.
No, look, it's literally, like - So, you believe the Big Bang Theory? - Yeah.
It's explained.
It makes sense.
- No, it doesn't It makes no sense.
- So, you don't believe in evolution? - I do not believe in it at all.
- Stop it.
- I do not.
- That's so fucked up.
- Oh my God.
Kyle - There's some guy who wrote a book.
- Some guy? - Yeah, wrote the Bible.
Have you ever read it? - I've read parts of it and I am - So, exactly.
Every atheist has said that and until you read it, you can't say anything about it.
- You'll never change my mind.
- I'm not trying to.
I know, but I'm also not gonna, like, understand that.
- I'll pray for you.
- I Shaina has extreme views on religion, and I have extreme views on religion.
Deep down inside, I knew it was too good to be true.
- Ouch.
- Before we started we were ending [Kyle.]
I could definitely fall in love with Shaina.
But, like, we are such polar opposites.
And I don't think either of us are gonna change each other.
And it scares me.
In another life Maybe I was floating away a little bit, and I was just grounded.
[Shaina.]
Yeah.
In another life [upbeat music plays.]
Hey! It's written in the stars That you'll be mine, all mine 'Cause it's written in Written in the stars, yeah Honestly, really being here just It really made me question, did I know the people that I was with before? Like, how was I in relationships? Was it real love? I'll be very honest, for my situation, - I have not gone for a girl - [Jason.]
Yeah.
like Deeps, but I feel really fucking good about it.
I'm beyond words how excited I am about finding someone like Deeps.
So, do you see yourself having kids? Like, how many kids do you want? I definitely don't want just one.
I want as many as I can afford.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good way to put it.
This is definitely my first time feeling this particular way about someone.
Without a doubt, I have never felt so close, so deep, so strong, so quickly.
Even in some of the Indian traditions, like touching the man's feet when I get married.
- Like, fuck that.
- I am right there with you.
I've come a long way, getting past superficial motivations for things and working through my insecurities.
I love being a vet, I hate the lifestyle of a vet.
So, owning your own practice, you'd have to be able to be flexible.
Not for a little while.
I like to be financially independent completely Me, too.
We're gonna have some smart, awesome kids.
I just know it.
Aww Deepti is like a puzzle piece that fits.
She fits in a way nobody else has ever fit.
["Could We Be Happy" playing.]
I've been waiting round For you to call my name But I don't hear the sounds No, nothing's gonna change I don't even know Where we're supposed to go From here - Hello.
- [Shake.]
Hey.
- Hi.
- [Shake.]
How's it goin'? - Good, how are you? - [Shake.]
I'm good.
[Shake exhales deeply.]
I wanted to just say something from the heart here.
So, when coincidence seems too convenient, I prefer to call that fate.
And I've never met someone who seems to understand me the way you do.
Our stories are so similar and they've already begun to intertwine.
You make me feel some type of way.
[Deepti chuckles.]
I'm gonna ask you to approach the wall here.
- [Deepti.]
Oh, I wish I could feel you.
- [Shake.]
I know.
I wish the same thing.
So, I'm gonna get down on one knee.
And, Deepti, will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me? Oh my gosh.
Abi.
I never thought that I would meet someone like you and Oh, man, I feel like fate has just gravitated us towards each other, and a thousand times yes! - [Shake.]
Yes! - Yes, yes! - Yes! All right! - I wish I could hug you right now.
- I know.
Oh my gosh, and then some.
- Abi, can't wait to see you.
- [Deepti exhales.]
- Wow, that feels amazing.
[Deepti.]
Whoo.
- We're engaged! - We're engaged.
- We're fucking engaged.
- I can't believe it.
[Deepti.]
Ah! - Rest of our lives, baby.
- Rest of our lives.
- Oh my God.
I just got goosebumps.
- Ah! I'm so excited! Got me spinning around Got me spinning round now You're in my head You're in my head Bye.
[Shake sighs.]
[squeals.]
- I'm engaged! - Yeah! Congratulations, hon! [squeals.]
Thank you! Thank you! Thanks.
[all cheering.]
- [man 1.]
Really? - [man 2.]
That is [Iyanna.]
So, I think if we're going to get married at the end of this, I want you to know everything.
Yeah.
So, do do you think there's, like, one thing that would be, like, the complete deal breaker in a marriage? Like, "Nah, this happened? This divorce is inevitable.
" For me, it's cheating.
And I mean, like, any form of cheating.
Like emotional cheating, or like, physically cheating.
So, do you [sighs.]
Do you think you have any any traumas that you're still, like, working through? So, I was sexually assaulted when I was 17.
- Hmm.
- [Iyanna.]
Like, my heart is healed.
It's just, like, sometimes my body remembers.
I mean, it can be difficult.
Like, I'm very, very, very selective on who I allow to get very, very close to me.
- Yeah.
- I can make quick acquaintances, very Like, that's fine.
But when it comes down to it, like, who am I investing my time with? - Mm-hmm.
- And it's not that many people, because I'm just very, very selective.
Mm-hmm.
You are one resilient person.
It doesn't feel fresh, but, um, there's still some, like, lingering um, things that I don't know, make me, I guess, like, have reflexes.
'Cause, I mean, I already struggle with trust in general and strangely enough, like, I feel like I trust you enough.
I mean, I do trust I understand you, like, extremely well.
- [exhales.]
That's huge.
- Yeah.
It is big.
[chuckles.]
Listen, outside of my family and my close friends, like no one no one knows this.
- [Iyanna.]
Mm-hmm.
- Um [sighs.]
A year ago - Almost lost my life.
- What? I had an issue with someone who I thought was a really close friend of mine.
There'd been friction between us for for quite some time.
We We had had, like, an issue.
I never saw the knife in his hand.
[gasps.]
[Jarrette.]
I was stabbed.
Oh my God.
- [sighs.]
- [Iyanna gasps.]
Yeah.
I end up passing out.
That's that's all I remember.
I woke up the next morning and have all these fucking tubes down my nose.
Didn't even know that I was gonna make it.
Probably one of the lowest points of my life.
- Oh my God.
- [Jarrette sighs.]
- Jesus.
- [Jarrette.]
Right.
I haven't had anybody there to go through this with.
I'm so sorry you went through that.
That's a lot.
[somber music playing.]
Dang, Jarrette.
[sniffles.]
I'm so sorry.
So, everything happens for a reason.
That's how I gotta look at it.
Yeah.
Honestly, it feels nice to open up to you.
And then for you to receive it so well, it feels nice.
I don't think I have anything else to think about anymore.
I think it's you.
Whoo.
I've made connections with you and Mallory.
And it's just, my brain is flustered.
I've literally been going back and forth every day.
[upbeat music playing.]
You don't know me, I know you want to I don't say please nor arigato Good luck, gents.
[Brandon.]
All right, fellas.
Enjoy yourself.
Make me proud.
Are you ready We've been having such deep conversations, I kind of bypassed all the basic shit.
- [Mallory.]
What do you mean? - What you do for work? I'm the communications manager for a non-profit.
This is the first time I've heard that.
I didn't ask this.
Really? Maybe we didn't talk about this.
And what about you? - [Jarrette.]
So, I wear a couple hats.
- Okay.
[Jarrette.]
So, my full-time job is I'm a healthcare consultant, and on the side, some of my entrepreneurial things I do, I cut hair.
So, part-time barber.
Couple friends of mine, we buy and resell sneakers.
And then I just started my own mobile hookah business.
[Mallory.]
Wow, I like that.
So, you're a hustler for sure.
Yeah.
I have a very big entrepreneurial mind.
So, I want myself and my wife to dive into that.
- Like, let's own property.
- [Mallory.]
Yeah.
I want to make sure our kids are fine when they go to college, grow up.
That works.
Yeah.
It's so important to me.
I really love that about you.
I don't know if I mentioned this, but I'm also a homeowner.
Oh.
Yes, I do.
I own a two flat.
- Hey, okay.
- Yeah.
It's my investments.
What do you think that would look like with your husband? I wanna be with somebody who is, like, a partner in all that, right? We can decide, do we want to live in your condo, or do we want to live in my house? Or do we want to rent both out and get something else? - I do have a dog.
So - [Jarrette.]
What kind of dog you got? I got a German Shepherd.
- I fucking love German Shepherds.
- Do you? She's a huge baby.
She's two and a half years old.
- [Jarrette.]
You be snuggling with her? - Oh my God.
Yeah.
She's very cuddly.
[Jarrette chuckles.]
Are you a big cuddler? I'm definitely a cuddler for sure.
I like to cuddle.
Um Feel like I haven't done it in a really long time.
[Jarrette.]
Mm-hmm.
You wanna cuddle with me? [Mallory.]
You sound like you'd be a good cuddler.
[laughs.]
[laughing.]
You're pumping through my veins [Mallory.]
Well, good night.
Sweet dreams, JerBear.
I'll do with you I'll do with you You make me wanna look crazy Like diving with my eyes closed Like free falling, just let go - Yeah, I need - Pretend I'm a lady and you're trying to Oh, yeah, bro.
[laughing and chattering.]
[Mallory.]
I have good connections with both Sal and Jarrette, but I definitely feel like Jarrette is a little bit more vocal about, like, seeing me in marriage.
But I want to stay open because I know that he's talking to other people.
He's talking to other people, so is Sal.
I think it's important to try to explore every conversation, every option.
It's just a lot of time to sit with my feelings and my thoughts.
And it's scary, and I'm scared.
So I'm emotional.
Um So, yeah.
Always in my head Always, always in my head [Salvador.]
Mal, how you feeling? [Mallory.]
I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling really good.
Yeah.
I've thought about you a lot.
It's just really interesting.
Yeah, or just finding myself, like, thinking about you, you know, like, throughout the day.
Obviously, you know, I really like you and [Mallory.]
Yeah.
And getting to know you has been very exciting.
It was so fast, but so slow at the same time.
- Yeah.
- [Salvador.]
You know? It's - [Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
- I know it's a lot.
[Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
You know, it's, like, the rational part of me and my brain is like, "What the fuck are you doing?" - Like, this is crazy.
- [Salvador.]
Mmm.
[Mallory.]
But, I think maybe for the first time I'm not listening to that.
Yeah.
This whole experience has definitely made me feel like I've dated the wrong way my whole life.
This has changed me a lot, and made me a better man.
I really do feel like I'm falling for you.
And that's what I feel has been the scariest thing.
You make me want to take that risk with you.
[Mallory.]
Mm-hmm.
So, I did prepare something.
It's super cheesy.
[Mallory.]
Oh.
Okay.
You ready for this? [Mallory.]
I'm ready.
[breathing rapidly.]
[ukulele tune playing.]
Hey, Mal, it's been I just realized you and I Ar e two peas in a pod What a terrible joke Truthfully, I have to say I like my time spent with you the most Let's go somewhere remote I hope this makes you smile The way you make me smile [finishing note.]
Oh my God.
You're so cute! That was so good.
I am so red.
I cannot Oh man - That was, like, the nicest thing - [Salvador laughs.]
anyone's ever done for me.
Oh my God, you're so cute.
Write a song for me I wanna be the one Who makes you feel the way Feel the way, feel the way The one who makes you feel The one that makes you feel [romantic music plays.]
[exhales deeply.]
[Shake.]
I think in the past I've always been trying to run away from my culture.
I honestly think that in my prior ways I would've passed over an opportunity to connect with a girl like Deepti.
As soon as I see her, it's gonna be two hands.
Boom.
I already let her know.
From here on out, she's within a two-mile radius from me, that booty is not safe.
[exhales sharply.]
I think Shake does place importance on appearance and physical aspects because, you know, to connect physically is important to him, but eliminating the physical piece of it has created such a bond and such a foundational stability for us.
He's actually this really sweet, articulate, sensitive, and fun, outgoing person.
I just think he's just a beautiful person inside out and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him.
[Shake.]
I've learned physical attraction isn't the biggest thing.
My test for if I can date a girl or not, which is, if I can put her on my shoulders at a music festival, then she's within a physical range that I would date, which, you know, looking back at, is such a superficial thing.
And I think I put on a front and try to be cool or try to be edgy.
All kinds of things that I use to protect myself.
I'm very fortunate to have been a part of this experiment and I think I landed an incredible woman because of it.
I think that Shake would not have gone for me if we were in the real world.
I think Shake definitely wants the most attractive woman in the room, kind of.
And so, I don't know, I'm just waiting to see what his initial reaction is, what his facial expressions are.
When I touch him, I hope, you know, I feel that spark and, you know, that he feels it back.
I hope that he sees that we can build a life together, even though I don't look like the typical girl he would go for.
I hope he likes me.
And I'm terrified.
I'd say I'm definitely terrified.
[dramatic music builds.]
- Holy shit.
- [Deepti.]
Hi.
- [Shake.]

In the Indian culture, when you get married, the wife touches the husband's feet, and I told him I'm not doing that because we're equals.
And so the fact that he touched my feet was perfect.

Even though I've dated so many blonde girls and and white girls in the past, Deeps is just perfect.
Deepti is one of the best things to ever happen to me.
I hope I'm gonna make her as happy as she deserves to be.
That's what I'm nervous about.

[Shake.]
I'm all right with that.
I want you and only you Take me back to where we were before I know that you want to go for sure In the past, I've been way too harsh on people, been way too stubborn.
But going through this, I realize that the ultimate goal is who can I be the happiest with? Shaina puts up with my strong personality.
She knows how to make me happy, and whenever I hear her voice, she just, like, lifts my spirits.
Am I gonna throw away an amazing woman because we disagree on religion? I've never had that dilemma, but my head has never been more clear.
[Shaina.]
Hello.
Good morning, beautiful.
[mouthing.]
Oh my God.
[Kyle.]
How are you? Um I'm okay.
How are you? I'm I'm feeling amazing.
- You are? - How are you feeling? Um, I'm good.
I have some questions.
Okay.
Our differences, like, the clear differences Yeah.
- Like, our core values.
- Yeah.
Does that, like, scare you? Like [Kyle.]
I think that, at this stage of my life, I can't.
I'll never find that perfect person where everything aligns so perfectly.
But our big things? They don't change how much love I have for you.
Does it scare you? There's a part of me that does feel right.
- Yeah.
- And then, I'm like, "Will we combust?" We have to risk it, honey.
- Right.
- Because I don't wanna have regrets.
- Do you see the box? - I do.
[chuckles.]
- [mouthing.]
Oh my God.
- [Kyle sighs deeply.]
- Are you holding it? - Do you want me to hold it? - I want you to, yeah.
- Okay.
You're holding my mother's engagement ring.
You remind me so much of my mother.
She was very, very religious, and she makes me the happiest.
I want someone who resembles her.
So Shaina Can you open your box, please? [pulsating rhythm builds.]
Oh my God.
Will you marry me? [dramatic music builds.]
Yes.
[chuckles.]
[laughing.]
Oh my God.
I'm dying to just grab your face and kiss you.
Baby, just because I got ya It don't mean I can wait - Do you know how much a kiss means? - Everything.
Yeah, it's the best feeling in the world to kiss somebody that you love.
I'm kind of in shock right now.
I know, and I didn't expect to ever pull that out.
I brought it with anticipation that maybe I would find somebody, and you are the perfect person for it.
I'm in shock.
I haven't put it on yet.
Are you excited to see me? I'm so excited to see you.
Oh my God.
[Kyle.]
I'll see you.
Okay.
Goodbye, beautiful.
I'm looking for the light Who am I to fall in line? In the forest of my mind Back-and-forth I go Back-and-forth I go Back-and-forth I go In the forest of my mind I just need, like, a second.
[inhales.]
[interviewer.]
So, why So, why are you crying? I guess it's just the idea of, like, being engaged again, and, um I just don't want to make, like, another mistake.
I care about Kyle a lot, but there's issues.
Huge things that we both do not see eye-to-eye on.
Sorry.
It's terrifying.
I made my past mistakes in not having integrity and staying true to myself.
And I Am I making that same mistake? I don't know.
[instrumental music plays.]
Joey, give me a pump-up speech.
I want you, the quietest one.
- Shayne, you're gonna do great, buddy.
- Okay.
That's it? - [Joey.]
Yeah.
- [laughter.]
God, you are bad.
You will never be my best man at my wedding.
- All right.
Cheers, boys.
- Cheers, boys.
This whole experiment's been crazy, but, like, somehow it works.
I developed strong feelings for two people.
I had deep, deep feelings for Shaina, but Shaina was always hesitant.
I mean, she never really actually told me how she felt.
Natalie asserted herself, and she just made me feel so safe and secure, and that's what I wanted.
Shayne, I just need to let you know you're my favorite.
- Oh.
- [both chuckle.]
When I first met Natalie, we had the most smoothest conversation.
We laugh constantly with each other, but we can also get to a deeper connection as well.
- Tell me about your family.
- My mom is, like, my best friend.
Um So, we I FaceTime her all the time.
I love that you have a really close relationship with your mom.
And you definitely make me feel comfortable.
[Shayne.]
She makes me feel excited.
Honestly, it's that euphoria you feel from someone when it's, like, she just gives you butterflies.
And I always said, when you know, you kind of know.
You just have that feeling.
It's wild.
- Yes! - [Shayne.]
You got it? [Natalie.]
Yes! Oh my God.
This is so exciting.
- [Shayne.]
There we go.
Perfect.
- I'm so happy.
- I can't believe you made this happen.
- Honey, I will make everything hap Whatever you want to happen, I will make it happen.
I've brought one girl home to my mom in my entire life.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
I've talked to you and gotten such deeper, like, connections with you in these, what, seven days, than I talked to her for six months.
It's been such a short period of time, but I feel like I've known her forever.
I mean, I'm riding so high on her and I'm ready to propose to this woman, 100%.
[chuckles.]
It's crazy to think.
- [Shayne.]
Hello.
- [woman.]
Hi.
[Shayne.]

[exhales deeply.]
You know, so, I'm trying to think of all of my thoughts and emotions about how I feel, and when I think about this whole experience, it's like This is exactly how I feel like we were supposed to meet.
Are you okay? I'm good.
