00:00Detroit spots that mean the most to you.
00:04Hi.
00:05I've wanted to kiss Bellows since the first date we had.
00:08He didn't disappoint.
00:09In order for a man to show he really cares,
00:11he has to spend some money.
00:12This situation made Christina drop on my list.
00:15So then you can either align with what you really want
00:18or gracefully bow out, because I don't play games.
00:21Xavier said, well, I like to move slow.
00:23And I said, has this experience made you reconsider
00:27how you approach dating?
00:29And he said, no.
00:31Oh, unfortunately, Xavier, you're not ready to love.
00:36I know it took me some time to get to the place
00:40that you wanted me to be.
00:42Oh, but now I'm ready, I'm ready to love.
00:59It's a nice house.
01:00It's a nice bed.
01:01OK.
01:02What up, Thomas?
01:03What up, what up?
01:04What's going on, baby?
01:05How you feeling?
01:06How you doing?
01:07I wonder what Tommy got us here for.
01:08Why did Tommy call us here?
01:10Tommy called for a meetup with the men only,
01:12and I definitely feel that Tommy has something up his sleeve,
01:14because why are we here?
01:16Fellas!
01:17What's going on, Tommy?
01:18Look at you.
01:19Tommy, what up?
01:20How y'all doing, man?
01:21Hey, what up?
01:22All right, looking good.
01:23What we doing, Darius?
01:24Hey, we on.
01:25We on, huh?
01:26We on Detroit.
01:27We on Detroit.
01:28OK, that's Detroit, right?
01:29You got the Tigers today.
01:30I thought my red carpet was going to pop.
01:32Upstage that, didn't you?
01:33We're sure.
01:34We're putting it together, baby.
01:35So listen up.
01:36I wanted to meet up with you all today
01:37to acknowledge your dedication
01:39to making real connections on this journey.
01:42I got nothing but R-E-S-P-E-C-T for you
01:46and that commitment.
01:47That is why we are here at the home of the Queen
01:51of Soul herself, Miss Aretha Franklin.
01:53Yeah, OK.
01:54We are here in the front of the Queen of Soul, baby.
01:57Yes, sir.
01:58You see, in this town, creating bonds
02:01is woven into its DNA, especially through music.
02:04Legendary artists like Aretha, the Supreme,
02:07Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, they led the charge.
02:11And let's be real.
02:11With hits like Let's Get It On and Sexual Healing,
02:14Marvin Gaye probably single-handedly
02:17boosted the birth rate in this country.
02:19Am I right or wrong?
02:20100%.
02:21Probably why I'm here.
02:22That's why you're here.
02:24With that being said, I am hosting a badge
02:27for all you singles that's going back to the old school.
02:30We're having a throwback, 70s Motown-inspired dance party.
02:36OK, OK, I can respect that.
02:38If your dance moves together, I want to see you all
02:41in your flyish Motown outfits.
02:43Spread the word to the ladies and let them know that I want to see them
02:48and name Motown best as well.
02:49Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:50Y'all get to it.
02:51I catch up with y'all later this week.
02:53All right.
02:53You should take a look inside, especially because of inspiration.
02:56All right, R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
02:59This is wild.
03:06This is very nice.
03:10Oh, my goodness.
03:11Look at this.
03:11This house is amazing.
03:12You see that?
03:13Look at that picture, brother.
03:14Point of the soul.
03:15All right.
03:16When I walk inside of Aretha Franklin's house, I'm like, whoa.
03:21I'm standing in the midst of history.
03:23I feel like I was in the dream.
03:24Aretha Franklin, you did your thing with this house, baby.
03:27Hey, fellas, I found the kitchen, man.
03:29Oh, yeah.
03:30Oh.
03:31Look at this.
03:32Oh, this is beautiful.
03:33Go.
03:34Go.
03:35Get him.
03:36Get him.
03:37Get him.
03:38Resuscitate.
03:39Resuscitate.
03:40Lord have mercy.
03:41I've been in some fantastic kitchens.
03:44This is easily 70 grand.
03:46I definitely salivated.
03:47I did some nasty things to the stove.
03:49I don't wish to share verbally, but I definitely rubbed on that stove in very seductive ways.
03:58Everybody got their inspiration?
04:00Everybody know how they coming?
04:01I believe so.
04:02I think I got the motivation we need for tonight.
04:04Let's let the ladies know.
04:05Let's let the ladies know.
04:06Don't it feel so good?
04:07Don't it feel so good to be alive?
04:08Don't it feel so good to be alive?
04:13Don't it feel so good to be alive?
04:14Don't it feel so good to be alive?
04:15Don't it feel so good to be alive?
04:28Today is Tommy's Motown throwback party.
04:31I'm most looking forward to see everybody's creative side.
04:36I love a man who can theme it up.
04:38When you think of Detroit, you think of rhythm as we go back.
04:44Way back.
04:45Back in time.
04:47Back to Motown.
04:49Yes!
04:50Turn up gorgeous.
04:51You look beautiful.
04:53I'm just a bit nervous because I felt like I focused my whole attention on my two, you
05:04know, connections that I really have not focused on any of the other six.
05:09Can we get a cheers to Great Connections and Devon?
05:12I'm going to have to swing around the room and hope that people are available to converse,
05:17but that could be a problem.
05:22My man seems to look like a private eye in the 70s, your friend.
05:26Let's get some shots, though.
05:27Let's go.
05:28Let's go.
05:29Shot.
05:30Shot.
05:31Anybody ready to cut a rug?
05:32Hell yeah.
05:33Let's dance.
05:34You don't know what you've done.
05:35You're brighter than the sun.
05:37100 million degrees.
05:40The era of Motown music in the city of Detroit is rich, full of tradition, history.
05:46This is where the Motown sound was born.
05:48Everybody wants you now, now, now, now, now.
05:53If you're looking for a good time, soul, style, and expression, that's us.
05:58Oh, we grooving, baby.
05:59Break it down.
06:00Break it down?
06:01Break it down.
06:02Break it down.
06:03Magic.
06:04Break it down.
06:05Break it down.
06:06Break it down.
06:07Break it down.
06:08No, man.
06:09Break it down.
06:10How you doing, baby?
06:11What?
06:12You smell amazing.
06:13Thank you, thank you.
06:14You look good.
06:15But you always look good.
06:16I appreciate it.
06:17Yeah.
06:18I'm ready for one second.
06:19Wait a minute now.
06:21These buttons, what?
06:22Another button?
06:23Another button?
06:24Don't tip me.
06:28So I'm excited about tonight.
06:30Yeah.
06:31However, there's an elephant in the room.
06:32Absolutely.
06:33Gotta be addressed.
06:34When I heard that Vince referred to me as a B word, I was shocked.
06:40I almost didn't believe it.
06:42Did anybody actually hear him call somebody a B word?
06:45I heard he said it.
06:46And it was said about you.
06:47What?
06:48Yeah, girl.
06:49What's about you?
06:50He was the tall bitch.
06:51I have been called a B word by a man in the past, and it is one thing that I absolutely
06:56will not tolerate.
06:57I don't even know if there's anything that he could say to me to make me feel comfortable
07:01again.
07:02Yeah.
07:03To me, that's poor character.
07:04It's unfortunate, it's inappropriate, and it's unacceptable.
07:06I feel like I need to confront Vince because, in general, I don't like the B word at all.
07:11It's disrespectful, and I'm really hoping that could clear up some of the confusion and allow
07:16me to look at him in a different light other than careless.
07:19He is handsome.
07:20You know?
07:21He did seem like he had some things that could have went for him, being a hard worker and
07:25a great father.
07:26But the reality is, it's not saying that he can't learn from this, right?
07:32Yeah.
07:33Do you like animals?
07:36Like dogs?
07:37Or cats, or...
07:38I like cats.
07:39I do too.
07:40All right, thank you.
07:41Can I have a picture here?
07:42Yeah, you're good.
07:43You're good.
07:44You know it's just gonna blow over in a second.
07:45It's gonna blow, but it's okay.
07:46If somebody said, describe it to me, other than that, it'd be fine.
07:50As hell.
07:51I don't know what I would tell them.
07:52A great person, first of all.
07:54You make me so nervous.
07:55What?
07:57Another, please.
07:59Marquine?
08:00Espeso, yeah.
08:01Oh, that's your thing.
08:03Now, this does both jobs.
08:04It'll wake me up and get me drunk at the same time.
08:08Because I'm a little tired.
08:10I went harder than Jim today.
08:12Okay, what you do?
08:13The pecs a little bit, I...
08:16You're moving your shoulders.
08:17You're not moving your...
08:18Okay, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
08:23Vince is so funny, y'all.
08:25I just connect with that.
08:27We talk every day.
08:28We're really getting to know each other,
08:30and we like each other.
08:32I need three seconds of pecs movement
08:34to know that it's pecs and not shoulders.
08:36You can't look at it.
08:37You gotta look at me.
08:38I don't know if it's moving or not.
08:40You gotta have eye contact.
08:42Okay, okay.
08:43All right, go ahead.
08:44Yeah.
08:45Okay.
08:47Approved.
08:48Approved.
08:50Donna, you know, even though I'm loud,
08:52even though I'm passionate,
08:54I feel like she gets what type of sense of humor that I have.
08:57She's just a sweet girl.
08:59Every time that I'm around her,
09:00she just reaffirms how sweet she is,
09:03and I think it's amazing.
09:05You know, I just 200 push-ups in the morning type .
09:09And you inspire me, honestly.
09:11Do I inspire?
09:12Like, I go,
09:13but I need to be, like, way more consistent.
09:15Well, you know what?
09:17You're more than welcome.
09:19To join you?
09:20Yeah.
09:21Sounds amazing.
09:22Hey, Tommy.
09:23Hey, Tommy.
09:24Hey, Tommy.
09:25Hey, Tommy.
09:26Hey, Tommy.
09:27Hey, Tommy.
09:28Hey, Tommy.
09:29Hey, Tommy.
09:30Hey, Tommy.
09:31Hey, Tommy.
09:32Hey, Tommy.
09:33Hey, Tommy.
09:34Hey, Tommy.
09:35All right, y'all bring it in, bring it in.
09:37When Tommy stepped in with his Motown outfit,
09:40he clearly showed us that he's about his business.
09:43Daddy T is in the house.
09:45Okay, Tommy.
09:46You know what you're doing,
09:47and you Motown ready, bruh.
09:49Welcome to Detroit.
09:50Welcome to our throwback 70s Motown-inspired party.
09:55What up?
09:57I see you.
09:58All right, Donna.
09:59I'm doing the math on this thing.
10:02Mm-hmm.
10:03Hey, I always got something to say.
10:07All right, all right.
10:10Let's get down to it.
10:11Now, what I want everybody to have a good time
10:13and channel your inner Motown.
10:15Woo!
10:16This night is still about making a good impression,
10:19especially you ladies,
10:22because one of you will be going home tonight.
10:26Oh.
10:27Oh.
10:28Leaving on that midnight train.
10:30Oh, my God.
10:31You ain't going to Georgia, but you are going home.
10:34It's crazy.
10:35I want to throw up.
10:36When Tommy said that one woman was going home,
10:38my eyes was like, oh, my goodness.
10:41But hey, nobody didn't step up.
10:43If they didn't step up, then, you know, they got to go.
10:45So y'all get this party started and make some magic.
10:49And if it ain't right, you're going home tonight.
10:52Tommy said it.
10:55I thought tonight was just a celebration.
10:58I know, right?
10:59Ooh.
11:00There's a lady going home tonight.
11:01Ooh.
11:02A little nervous.
11:03That's crazy.
11:04This just turned from a party to like, oh, we got to talk,
11:08because as far as I know, Vince is my only connection.
11:12Andy has other connections, so I don't feel secure.
11:15It could be my time to go home.
11:17I mean, do you feel like your connections you made
11:19are strong enough to keep you here?
11:21I don't know.
11:35Every man that I've ever dated wants to marry me.
11:38But I don't date, I don't marry liars.
11:41I don't marry cheaters.
11:42Wow.
11:43I don't know who wearing the pants.
11:45You wearing the pants or the pants wearing you.
11:46But it's looking good to me.
11:49Hey.
11:50What's it going?
11:52Good.
11:53So I wanted to come home with myself and apologize in public,
11:58not in private, not trying to send a text,
12:02not on the phone, because that's weak.
12:04I really want to look Lauren in her face
12:07and express how I am genuinely sorry that the word bitch
12:12was said.
12:13It was definitely on the front of my mind to get to her
12:17so I can alleviate any tension that we had.
12:21I'm completely, completely sorry.
12:24You have done nothing but been open to me.
12:28We've only had great conversations.
12:30Yeah.
12:31And so you don't deserve that.
12:33Mm-hmm.
12:34And I'm putting you in a situation where you feel bad.
12:37Yeah, I was embarrassed.
12:38And I am also, by the way.
12:40But it's not about me.
12:41I can't imagine how you feel.
12:43So I just wanted to say that I apologize.
12:49I feel like you're being authentic.
12:51You can let it marinate a little bit.
12:55I mean, you can.
12:56I appreciate it.
12:58100%.
12:59Apologizing, it's impactful, because I believe 100%
13:04that Vince is truly remorseful.
13:06I accept your apology.
13:08Well, I appreciate that.
13:10I think that Vince has learned from his actions.
13:13He seems like a very caring man,
13:15and I see him in a different light.
13:17If there's anything else, just let me know.
13:21Tits out.
13:24Tits out.
13:30Show me a dance ball.
13:31You gotta do the hair.
13:33Do the hair.
13:34I'm gonna shake it like fuck.
13:35Shake it.
13:36Yeah.
13:37Yeah.
13:38Sometimes I just sit back and look at you.
13:39I'm like, you know what?
13:40She look good.
13:41Really?
13:42I do.
13:43And that's not a game.
13:44You know what that is?
13:45What?
13:46That's gospel.
13:51When it's night on the phone.
13:53Had me on the phone for a long time.
13:54Let's go.
13:55Let's go.
13:56During this process so far, I've been connecting
13:59with Steven, but Darius is cool.
14:02We have so much fun on the phone,
14:05but we have not had a chance to spend a lot of time
14:08together since the first mixer.
14:10So hopefully, I can get to know him more.
14:12Y'all showed up.
14:13No, you showed up.
14:15When you been out the car, I seen you walking in.
14:18They're like, who that?
14:20I'm like, that's a shank.
14:21That's a shank.
14:22Hey.
14:23That's so long.
14:24Yeah, let him know.
14:25Why are you looking?
14:26I'm just looking at you.
14:27Oh, you just pulling me so you can stare?
14:29Should I pose?
14:30Yeah, pose.
14:31You know, I'm a photographer, so I didn't tell you that.
14:33How long you been on that?
14:34I was like 13, 14 shooting pictures.
14:36How old are you now?
14:37I'm 40.
14:38Really?
14:39Yeah.
14:40Okay.
14:4140.
14:42Okay, okay.
14:43I'm a grown man.
14:44I'm a grown girl.
14:45That's Shantae.
14:46She was just smiling.
14:47She was happy.
14:48And our vibe got a little stronger, a little deeper.
14:52I felt it.
14:53You know, I'm telling a thing, but I don't have to come see you.
14:56Mm-hmm.
14:57What are you looking at?
14:58I'm up here.
14:59I'm looking at your chain.
15:00Uh-huh.
15:01Your chain.
15:02Yeah, girl, I'm looking at it.
15:03I'm trying to figure out the chain.
15:04What's going on?
15:05Yeah, like, okay.
15:06Yeah, that keeps getting swallowed.
15:07You sound like T.D. Jakes.
15:09Don't want to be swallowed.
15:11What?
15:12That is funny.
15:13Just let it do with me.
15:14There ain't nothing wrong with that.
15:16I've got a good thing going, and I'm never slowing down.
15:23Can I ask you a question?
15:24So, like, when you say, um...
15:26I love that question.
15:28You're stupid.
15:29I'm not.
15:30I'm so intelligent.
15:31You smell amazing.
15:33Chris is very cool.
15:35I didn't stop building with Chris just because he didn't get the massage.
15:38I ain't even mad at it.
15:40I literally asked three of my interests.
15:42Yeah, I would love to go to a spa.
15:44It would make me feel so special.
15:45Chris, he gave me an understanding answer.
15:47I would love to, but I'm not in a position right now.
15:50If we're talking about, like, past experiences, like, what do you feel like were the biggest hurdles that you had to kind of overcome?
15:59So, when it came to different relationships, I let a lot of men go because I felt like they weren't meeting my expectations.
16:06This is what I started doing.
16:08I'm not going to chase you to give me what I want from you.
16:11I'm going to really sit back and be patient enough to observe what you are offering to know if you are considerate or inconsiderate.
16:20So, my question is, how do you do that with multiple people in a six-week time span?
16:25Easy.
16:26I asked the three men that I was very interested in for a massage for me.
16:31A man who really wants you is willing to take care of you.
16:34The massage thing.
16:35I didn't know that this was a conversation she had with three other guys.
16:40It was like, what?
16:42Like, that was weird.
16:44But before you could even become my man, I gotta know what you need to give me.
16:53Cheers.
16:56Did you miss me?
16:57Hell yeah.
16:59I can't tell.
17:01You can't tell?
17:02No.
17:03I talked to everybody but you today.
17:05You think I don't see you in the corner of my eye?
17:07You want me to tell you where you were sitting?
17:08You were sitting right over there with Chris.
17:10Then you moved over there.
17:11You're talking to Cardi.
17:12I'm talking to you now.
17:13You're cute.
17:17All right.
17:18All right.
17:20Cheers to that.
17:21Cheers to that.
17:22Girl, you shining.
17:23I like your outfit.
17:24You look nice.
17:26At this point, my connection with Bello is pretty intense.
17:29But I also feel like Devon is a great guy.
17:32I enjoy his company.
17:34So I want to keep an open mind.
17:37So we were talking about passion.
17:40Is there something on the horizon that you're working on?
17:43The fly closet.
17:45The fly closet.
17:46The fly closet.
17:48That's my store that I'm planning on opening very soon.
17:51I think it would be pretty dope.
17:52I appreciate it.
17:53I just so happen to do real estate.
17:56So they feel about the location.
18:02I find it.
18:03I love it.
18:04You love it?
18:05I love the fact that you even thinking about my business.
18:08Oh, yeah.
18:09He's a great listener.
18:10I think that's one of his great abilities.
18:12And he is very thoughtful.
18:14And I love that about him.
18:15And I was receiving that man.
18:17I liked him.
18:19You're amazing.
18:22I love it here.
18:23What do you mean?
18:27That's how my mind works.
18:28I don't know.
18:29If we're not working on our dreams or our purpose, then what are we doing?
18:32I need to have an ambitious wife simply because I want to make sure that she understands that I'm coming into the relationship whole.
18:39And I expect my partner to come in whole.
18:42And Dominique is self-assured.
18:44She's confident.
18:45She's articulate.
18:47She is perfect.
18:49You ever get overwhelmed by a presence of a person?
18:52Even with this wig on?
18:54The wig.
18:56Take this wig off.
19:01You going too fast?
19:03Feels great.
19:22Hey!
19:25I felt like the dance floor was electric and I was ready to get up on it.
19:28And everybody went down the Soul Train line.
19:30We killed it.
19:31We knocked it out the box.
19:32Go, girl!
19:37There's a lot of energy going on.
19:38People are dancing.
19:39I mean, they're doing a robot.
19:41Everything.
19:42So I'm happy to be here right now.
19:44Party breaks into the worm.
19:58I wasn't ready for that.
19:59Uh-uh.
20:00Uh-uh.
20:12We really enjoy each other.
20:15And these are the moments that I like.
20:17I feel like these moments bring everybody together
20:19going this journey.
20:27Your whole chest is out?
20:29Yeah, it is.
20:30OK.
20:30I mean, you look good.
20:31Don't look good?
20:31Yeah, you look good.
20:33Devon's Motown outfit is nice.
20:35He got his chest out.
20:38Hmm.
20:40So he looking right.
20:42Want to go and sit?
20:43I do.
20:43Want to sit there?
20:45Yeah, let's go sit there.
20:46My connection with Devon has grown,
20:48and I feel like blossomed.
20:50We talk for a long time on the phone.
20:53It's very much, like, comfortable with Devon.
20:57I like it.
20:58So what's something that you like to share with people,
21:03like an activity or something you like to do?
21:06Working out is one.
21:07You like to work out with friends and people, like,
21:09bring them to work out with you?
21:10Yes, I do.
21:11I like to share my love for, actually, it's working out too,
21:15but specifically Pilates.
21:17You might have to check out a Pilates class.
21:18I would.
21:19I'm not, because I'm not doing it right now.
21:21But yeah, of course I would.
21:21Oh, OK.
21:22Absolutely.
21:23Cool.
21:23Yeah.
21:25I'm glad that makes you so excited.
21:26Yeah.
21:27I would definitely do it.
21:28Well, I've had men be like, I'm not doing that.
21:31Because I think it's, like, very, like,
21:33Feminine.
21:33Yeah.
21:34So I'm very comfortable in my sexuality.
21:37I love that for you.
21:38Because a lot of men are not.
21:40Me and Shannon Vibe, I'm realizing
21:42that we have a lot in common.
21:44You know, I like it.
21:45I dig it.
21:46She's pretty dope.
21:48You look so pretty.
21:50It's a little distracting, actually.
21:51It's distracting?
21:53Wow.
21:54I've never heard that one before.
22:05You're looking really nice.
22:07Oh, thank you.
22:08I mean.
22:08Yeah, you're fine.
22:10That's what we do right there.
22:11See, like, you the only one that got me talking out of pocket.
22:13What?
22:14You got me talking out of pocket.
22:15A little bit.
22:16You at least had some slick .
22:17Yeah.
22:18I don't know if you're hearing about it.
22:18Listen, I don't be talking like this.
22:20Hey, all of a sudden I talk to you,
22:21I'll be like, I done lost all coos.
22:25It's you and I.
22:26Come on.
22:26Let's do it.
22:27OK.
22:28Let's get some new energy.
22:29OK.
22:30I'd like for us to figure out where, you know,
22:32more about each other so that we can understand who we are.
22:35So, to be clear, I want to first ask what turned the energy
22:39to stay up.
22:40Because I'm not a fake person.
22:41And the reason why I felt different is because a friend
22:44of mine has been called a bitch.
22:47Using the B word, you know, you're in a setting to find
22:51love with all these beautiful, talented,
22:53hardworking women.
22:54That's crazy.
22:55Oh, you're calling bitches.
22:56Whoa.
22:57Who?
22:58I'm ready to love.
22:59You know what I'm saying?
23:00And it made me feel like, wow.
23:01First of all, I have apologized to her because it's not
23:05fair for her to feel that way.
23:06Second of all, for you to not even ask me about it
23:09and then just go feel the type of way, that's unfair.
23:13If I heard something about you, I'm going to respect you.
23:17And if anything is said that I think that was disrespectful,
23:20before I come at you or judge you,
23:22I'm just going to ask you.
23:23It sounds ironic coming off of me disrespecting
23:26someone that I'm talking about respect.
23:29But Christina is very disrespectful.
23:32What you made a judgment point on without talking to me?
23:34No, no, I didn't make a judgment.
23:35That's unfair.
23:36If you were, because when you come up
23:37and you don't speak to me like you speak to everybody else,
23:39that's your, that's, I'm sorry to let you know.
23:41Let me have you understand something.
23:43I'm not going to treat every man the same
23:44because I'm interested in some man.
23:46The three men that I was interested in
23:48and I mentioned my needs, they don't make sure
23:50I'm okay in every scenario.
23:52Because they bought you the spa massage?
23:53No, the massage.
23:55I felt like Vince needed to confirm for himself
23:57that I was not interested in the way that I am not.
24:01I didn't ask for .
24:03You didn't ask them for anything?
24:04No, I didn't.
24:05I probably what I needed for me.
24:06And they gave it to you?
24:07Because, let me tell you something.
24:09And that makes you, you seem like it makes you really happy.
24:10Let me have you understand something.
24:11Okay.
24:12Baby, do right, baby.
24:14You might get me.
24:17My question is that when do you expect this to happen?
24:19Immediately?
24:20Let me tell you something.
24:21When you got connections, you can know somebody for two days
24:23and baby, I want to lick your neck.
24:24Okay.
24:25Christina, I don't think you're looking for love.
24:29We see what you're ready for.
24:30Like, we can understand what you're ready for.
24:32All you're trying to do is get paid.
24:35If I say I'm struggling with anything,
24:37my man should be wanting and willing as a provider.
24:41And I know that this may not resonate with you,
24:43but from my example, from my father,
24:45anything my mama needs, she can't, baby.
24:47And if you can't take care of me
24:49as well as my daddy take care of my mama for 39 years,
24:52I don't want it.
24:54But what you're saying is that we just don't connect.
24:57We might not be compatible.
24:59I appreciate you.
25:00I do.
25:01For real.
25:01I do.
25:02I'm glad we have the conversation.
25:15Kick it out now.
25:16To the right now.
25:17To the left now.
25:19To the back now.
25:21I like this.
25:23This definitely looks like a...
25:25Oh.
25:26How's it feel?
25:27How's it feel?
25:28No, it looks like a different material.
25:30Like boyfriend material?
25:31I was celibate for a long time.
25:33And that's something you intentionally...
25:35Yeah.
25:36What I did was semen retention.
25:37Oh.
25:38You know, we're going to release.
25:39That's all.
25:43With Darius, we have a certain vibe that no one else has.
25:46But I don't know.
25:47I still have reservations up because of how many connections
25:50he do have, which is a little concerning for me.
25:54How you feeling?
25:55Honestly, it's been really heavy on me that like...
25:59What if I don't find my person here?
26:00You know what I'm saying?
26:01What if I...
26:02I had that moment last night.
26:03I am a bit insecure in this process.
26:06And I'm also very scared because I feel like it could be me getting eliminated tonight.
26:11But I feel like I have been my complete self this entire time.
26:14And the right person will be able to handle me.
26:16Excuse my language, but I really with you.
26:18I think that you're beautiful.
26:19I think you're so smart.
26:20No, seriously.
26:21Don't turn your head to the side.
26:24Look in my eyes.
26:26Hey.
26:28Okay, we found the rhythm now.
26:30So are you a boobs guy or a butt guy?
26:32Mmm, butt guy if I had to choose.
26:34Okay.
26:35I got boobs, so it's not...
26:36There you go.
26:37Yeah, it's not a big deal.
26:42How do you know what you want?
26:43Like, how do you know?
26:44I don't want a regular woman.
26:45I want an extraordinary woman.
26:47Like myself, I'm extraordinary.
26:49I'm not no regular dude.
26:50But how do you know like this is the one?
26:52Because...
26:53It's how you feel when you're around you.
26:55Is that flutter?
26:56That flutter in your heart.
26:57When they talk to you, they talking to your soul.
26:59You can't replace that feeling, baby.
27:00It's deep.
27:01Have you had that feeling before?
27:02I'm having that feeling now.
27:05My connection with Ashley, I mean, it's growing day by day.
27:08Man, we have beautiful conversations, man.
27:10We understand each other.
27:12I mean, we've been on the phone for four hours.
27:14Back to back.
27:15Falling asleep like kids.
27:16Waking up.
27:17Everything.
27:18This is something phenomenal.
27:19Okay.
27:20I was just...
27:21I was just picking your brain a little bit.
27:22But I want to pick yours, though.
27:23I want to know how you feel.
27:25I mean, sometimes I can have a wall up.
27:28Okay.
27:29Because when guys see me, they say certain stuff,
27:32but they don't never hold up to what they say.
27:34Well, I'm coming with the sludge hammer.
27:36That wall coming down.
27:37Really.
27:38I'll take your word for it.
27:39Hey, look.
27:40Lock it up.
27:41Throw away the key.
27:42Let's go.
27:43Darius does have a big heart under all that fur.
27:45He gives off this macho man, strong exterior,
27:49when really he's very loving.
27:51But I do think that he is a little too friendly
27:54with the other women.
27:55And I come second to nobody.
27:58It is getting a little closer towards the end,
28:00and you do still have to make connections,
28:02but I still need to know, like,
28:03because I don't like being played with.
28:05I'm never going to play with you.
28:06So when I come to you, I'm coming genuine.
28:08Mm-hmm.
28:09And I'm going to say this.
28:10We're still in the process of learning each other
28:13in a lot of different ways.
28:14There's a lot of layers to us.
28:16Mm-hmm.
28:17From what I know, I'll take that ball and roll it right now.
28:21Seriously.
28:22We're going to strike every time,
28:24because you ain't missed yet with me.
28:27OK.
28:29Well, I can let you have your little talks,
28:31but they can't be mad if I just snatch you,
28:33pull you away.
28:34I'm serious, y'all.
28:35That's the whole thing.
28:36You think I'm playing?
28:37I'm going to let you have your little talks again.
28:38You go ahead and make your little rounds.
28:39It's you, you know?
28:40Ladies and gentlemen.
28:41OK, so we locked in.
28:42We locked in, baby.
28:43OK.
28:44We locked in.
28:45Yeah.
28:46OK.
28:50I feel like my connection got deeper with Ashley.
28:53We sat down, and we gazed in each other's eyes.
28:57And man, I swear, we was locked in.
29:00It was a different vibe and feeling than I had.
29:04OK, no, we got to do it for real.
29:05Like that.
29:06We got a kiss.
29:07Mm-hmm.
29:08We in there.
29:09Just like that.
29:10I like that.
29:16Mm-hmm.
29:18Funky chicken.
29:21You look amazing, by the way.
29:22You do, too.
29:23I think I could have made a nigger.
29:25I think you could have, too!
29:31You heard something else.
29:33So, I have wondered, from the date that we had, if what I said about religion and spirituality was maybe misinterpreted by you?
29:48For some reason, some of the guys got the message that I did not believe in God, that I was an atheist.
29:53I did speak with the fellas today.
29:56Quite a few of us are religious, and they just felt a concern.
30:00Will there be this support of somebody that you date that might be a religion?
30:06The communication about my religious views has been really messed up.
30:10And I was wondering if that's because Ed did not actually understand me.
30:14Do you and your family come from, like, a religious background?
30:18I don't think any of us claim Christianity.
30:21Oh, what?
30:22For me personally, I'm spiritual.
30:24There are a lot of people involved in this process, and we are playing the telephone game at this point.
30:29I'd only had that conversation with you and Devon.
30:32So, I felt like maybe the miscommunication happened with me and you.
30:37The word atheist has been thrown around.
30:40Mm-hmm.
30:41And I never said that I don't believe, and actually, I said the opposite of that, that I do believe in God.
30:46I'm bringing it up because I want to make sure that you understand me.
30:49That's what matters to me. I want to be understood more than anything else.
30:52I feel like, you know, you're still on the journey, on the path.
30:57You're still kind of figuring a lot of things out in that area.
30:59No, I'm not on a journey to find that.
31:02I'm very sure and very grounded on what I believe.
31:07Yeah, you know, I understood that you believed in God.
31:10Okay.
31:11You believed in the deity.
31:12Okay.
31:13You know, our, I believe our misalignment is Jesus, because Jesus is God.
31:19We may not be on one accord with that.
31:22Okay.
31:23There's a stalemate when it comes to alignment on religion.
31:27And I was just very turned off by that.
31:29And that's not the kind of vibe I feel like I'm looking for when I'm looking for love.
31:33So, based on the conversation between Donna and I, Donna's a no-go.
31:38I want to just have that constant alignment there.
31:41I feel like the right relationship, the right man, you are gonna be in sync.
31:47I feel like I'm a little disappointed because there are too many misconceptions about me.
31:52I don't feel secure.
31:53And I feel like I'm on a chopping block again.
31:56I do feel like you're going to find that right man, and y'all are going to be centralized on that.
32:02Okay.
32:05Oh, yes. Yes, indeed.
32:17You got any anxiety about tonight?
32:20It's a bit stressful just because, obviously, one of us is going home tonight.
32:25I'm just going to be me, always.
32:27Absolutely.
32:28You've always been you, so, something that's really great, you know?
32:31Yeah.
32:32We need to organize a Zoom date, and I will plan something magical over that computer screen.
32:37I don't know what, but I'm going to think of something, and I will set us up with a date, and we do not get one.
32:42Because that is how much I am interested in getting to know you more.
32:45I love them.
32:46The men who were chosen to be a part of this, is everybody a romantic connection for me?
32:50Obviously, no.
32:51Right?
32:52I only need to work once.
32:53I only need one husband.
32:54Hey, hey, hey!
32:56Hey!
32:57What's up, y'all?
32:58What's going on?
32:59Let's go!
33:00I see the party's in full effect.
33:02Mixing and mangling.
33:03Everybody having a good time?
33:04Yes.
33:05All right, then.
33:06It's time for a reminder why we're here, and that is to make genuine, meaningful connections.
33:11As you know, one lady will be going home tonight.
33:14Go .
33:15So, I got to put the party on pause and steal the men for a second.
33:18Damn.
33:19Fellas!
33:20Oh, damn.
33:21Follow me to the back patio, please.
33:23Fella, make good decisions.
33:24Mm-hmm.
33:25Mm-hmm.
33:26Mm-hmm.
33:27My mind.
33:28Mm-hmm.
33:29I'm back with Tommy.
33:30Hey, beautiful.
33:31I'll be back.
33:32Somebody going home, I'm...
33:33Y'all nervous?
33:34Listen.
33:35Y'all nervous, I know all.
33:36As the men are taking away with Tommy, I'm thinking to myself, y'all better have my back.
33:45I'm fighting tooth and nail out here in this hot-ass afro.
33:49Don't piss me off.
33:50Because if Ashanti ends up on that chopping block, somebody lying.
33:54Got your seat.
33:55Fall in, fall in.
33:56As you know, we got some business to tend to.
33:58All right.
33:59All right.
34:00So let's get right to it.
34:01Any connections being made?
34:02Almost ever.
34:03More than ever.
34:04More than ever?
34:05That's the problem.
34:06All right.
34:07Who you digging on tonight?
34:08Man, Nicole.
34:09Start to mingle a little more.
34:10Pull that layer back.
34:11Okay, okay.
34:12Get a little more deep.
34:13That's good.
34:14Steven?
34:15Ashanti, you know?
34:16Ashanti?
34:17Ashanti.
34:18Yeah?
34:19Ashanti, man.
34:20You just said it three times.
34:21Ashanti.
34:22No, it's a real good vibe, man.
34:24She, like, fun.
34:25She all that stuff.
34:26All right, all right.
34:27Darius?
34:28I'm vibing with Ash.
34:29She locked in pretty well.
34:30Anybody else after that?
34:31It's real close.
34:33It's a tie.
34:34It's a tie between who?
34:35It's got to be between Ashanti and Damo.
34:38Damo.
34:39Dominique.
34:40Y'all on next.
34:41Yeah, that's Damo.
34:42There we go.
34:43Dom, Dominique.
34:44She's more than meets the eye.
34:45She's funny, but also, like, will pray over you.
34:47You know, she just has a lot of these qualities that, you know,
34:50that you would find in a woman that you want.
34:53Yeah.
34:54All right, all right.
34:55Kevon.
34:56Tonight, Shannon.
34:57Just laughing up.
34:58And Dominique's still my boo.
35:00Chris!
35:01I actually had a really great conversation with Mahal,
35:03and I'm interested to get to know her a little bit more.
35:05All right.
35:06My African brother.
35:07Yes, sir.
35:08Peace!
35:09At the very beginning, Dominique hit everything.
35:11The vibe, the connection.
35:13So Dominique is still my top.
35:15Okay.
35:16All right, now we're gonna find out who we are not connecting with.
35:19Vince, not connected with.
35:22I'm not connected with Christina.
35:25She was very adamant about money meaning a lot to her,
35:29and this person did this for me, this person did that for me,
35:32and that means they're stepping up.
35:34And if you're looking for me to lead with my money and lead with what I have,
35:37then this ain't for you.
35:38Yeah.
35:39Anybody else?
35:40Yeah.
35:41Unfortunately, it's Christina.
35:42It's disheartening because in 85% of her, she's exactly what I want.
35:46But then this other side is like, if this is true, then this other 85% don't matter.
35:50Similar to what Chris was saying, Christina with that situation.
35:55Mm.
35:56It's really hard.
35:57All right.
35:58Darius?
35:59Man, you know, the only person I'm not connected with is Donna.
36:03I was prejudged, and she never cared to just take the time doing the assignment of getting to know me.
36:09Got you.
36:10Anybody else?
36:11Yeah.
36:12With Donna today, we just weren't connected.
36:13It wasn't a good conversation.
36:14I felt like we were just misalignment.
36:16So my least connections is also Donna.
36:21I think our just initial series of interactions is her being very busy.
36:27And it was a turn off for me.
36:31To hear people say, well, Donna doesn't have time.
36:34Well, she don't got time for you.
36:36Because I talked to Donna, and I don't think she's busy.
36:41Maybe she's not feeling you.
36:43Woo!
36:44Y'all know where this brings us, don't you?
36:46Yup.
36:47Yeah.
36:48Time for y'all to go back to these ladies to talk square bits.
36:51And let one of them know that they are not ready to lock.
36:55Mm.
36:56It's getting tight.
36:57It's getting tough, though, man.
36:58It is what it is.
36:59There's some great women, bro.
37:00It's tough.
37:01Yeah, it is.
37:02Y'all figure it out.
37:03I'll see y'all back at the park.
37:04All right.
37:05Yeah.
37:06Let's go.
37:07It bothers me that Donna is in people's bottom connection
37:12because she's one of my biggest connections.
37:15So I'm a little antsy.
37:17Let's get it.
37:18Let's get it.
37:19We got a job to do.
37:20Woo!
37:21A job needs to be done.
37:22I just want to say that you guys look absolutely stunning.
37:32I am a stylist.
37:33And I would not have styled anybody any differently.
37:36Aww.
37:37These men are going to have a hard decision.
37:39I'm nervous.
37:40There's nobody safe.
37:41A lot of them are at the point where now they're expecting us to reciprocate.
37:45Like, in real life, I'm used to being pursued.
37:49I feel like if I'm chasing, then this ain't the right person for me.
37:53Exactly.
37:54I don't have guy friends.
37:55All my friends are females.
37:56I hear every single day, this man broke my heart.
37:58My feelings are hurt.
37:59I'm sad.
38:00I'm crying.
38:01So to me, oh, this is going to end bad for somebody in this room.
38:04It could be me.
38:05It could be somebody else.
38:06So it's making me sad.
38:07The reality is, now we not in control.
38:09Somebody else is in control of somebody going home.
38:11Uh-oh.
38:12It sounds like the manor rack.
38:13Uh-oh.
38:14All right, everybody.
38:16I need y'all to bring it in.
38:17Fuck me, bring it in.
38:18Bring it to the dance floor.
38:19Here we go.
38:20Here we go.
38:21Come on in.
38:22Come on in.
38:23Everybody had a good time?
38:24Yes.
38:25More connections being made?
38:26Absolutely.
38:27With all this Motown magic in the air, I can tell we're getting closer to something real.
38:33I hope that today you not only were having a good time, but I hope you started the process
38:38of building a genuine, long-lasting romance with your connection.
38:43Now, to the business at hand, ladies, unfortunately the party has come to an end for one of you.
38:51Because the gentleman felt like that connection is no longer there.
38:56Tagebaa.

38:58Ana.
38:59Why don't you step up in my man?
39:00The floor is yours.
