00:00I don't know if you have kids, if you want kids, like...
00:05You want to know if I want kids?
00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo.
00:08And today, we're counting down our picks for the jaw-droppingest revelations
00:12from Netflix's age-gap dating show, Spoilers Ahead.
00:17For me, it's been fun to date younger.
00:20Healthy, I don't know, probably not fun, yes.
00:25Number 10.
00:27Pfeiffer's parents find out Derek's age.
00:30Sitting down to meet the parents is always nerve-wracking.
00:33It's double nerve-wracking for the cast of Age of Attraction,
00:36as in some cases, their new partner is actually as old as their parents.
00:41I'm the more flexible one because, of course, I'm younger than Derek.
00:47Okay.
00:48By how much, I'm curious.
00:50Pfeiffer Hill was 23 at the time of filming.
00:52When she found out the youthful-looking Derek Fleming was 20 years older than her,
00:57she took it in stride.
00:58However, her parents were shocked.
01:00So, I'm 43.
01:04Okay.
01:05You look good for 43.
01:07Yeah, and so we didn't know each other's ages.
01:10That was it.
01:11Wow.
01:11Okay, I would never have thought you're 43.
01:13On top of the age gap, the fact that Derek already has two children gives Pfeiffer's parents some pause.
01:20The more they digest Derek's existing situation, the more you can see the wheels turning in their heads.
01:26Being 23, and potentially having two immediate children?
01:33Yeah.
01:34I mean, like, it is what it is, I guess.
01:39And you hated babysitting.
01:40And I was bad at babysitting.
01:42Which, I haven't told him that.
01:43I haven't even told him that I did babysit.
01:45Number 9, meeting Teresa's children.
01:49Teresa DiMaria is terrified about what her three children might think about her much younger partner, John Merrill.
01:55Zero appetite.
01:57Zero appetite?
01:58No.
02:02Here they are.
02:03When they arrive at the restaurant for their scheduled lunch, Teresa looks like she wants to flee.
02:09She seems to be the most uncomfortable person at the table.
02:12When asked about their relationship, she doesn't seem sure if it will work, or if they can overcome the obstacle
02:17of age difference.
02:19How would you envision your ideal future together?
02:23Um, yeah, I mean, we don't know.
02:27Like, I'm not going to predict anything.
02:29Her apparent lack of pride in their relationship rubs John the wrong way.
02:33Once John leaves the table, though, Teresa actually refuses to reveal his age to her children.
02:39It doesn't bode well.
02:40So can you tell us about his age?
02:44No.
02:45I mean, I can, but I don't want to.
02:48Number 8, Logan's parents meet Vanessa.
02:51Well, it's a complicated thing.
02:52In relationship, it's a complicated thing.
02:54There's always challenges, you know.
02:56Yes!
02:57Right, and you know, again, you're his age.
03:00You know this.
03:01Well, actually, we're not the same age.
03:03But thank you for thinking that.
03:05Logan Goodrid is 29.
03:07And his match, Vanessa Drozda, is 49.
03:11When it comes time to meet his parents, his mother is ready to ask all the difficult questions.
03:16Where will they live?
03:17Will they have kids?
03:19How old is she?
03:20She's shocked by their 20-year age difference and is very honest about how it feels to potentially not be
03:26a grandmother given Vanessa's age.
03:28I mean, my friends are all starting to have grandkids.
03:38It's one of the more brutally honest but understandable reactions to such a large age gap.
03:43We watch in real time as they try to balance their care for their son and their own vision of
03:48what his future would look like.
03:49I don't know.
03:51I haven't thought that far ahead.
03:54If you're moving forward with this woman, then it's time to start thinking a little bit ahead.
03:59You know, she's not dilly-dallying.
04:01Right, right, right.
04:02But if there's something really there and you do have a connection, I guess it becomes how strong is that
04:09connection.
04:10Number 7.
04:11Chris Dumps Leah
04:12The moment Leah Woolfolk tells Chris Dallin she's ready to commit to him, he clears his throat.
04:19Excuse me.
04:24So, wow.
04:26Not a great sign.
04:27As it turns out, he was far from ready to commit.
04:30It leaves Woolfolk wondering if he ever really cared for her at all.
04:34Chris didn't really want to be with me.
04:36If somebody really likes you, really wants to be with you, they'll be with you.
04:40And they'll fight.
04:41That's why I was willing to give us a shot and see if we really could get it together.
04:45But he wasn't.
04:48To make matters worse, at the show's reunion on The Vile Files,
04:52Dallin revealed that he is heading back into the reality dating show ring on another Netflix property.
04:57He's joining the streamer's fourth season of Perfect Match.
05:01I'm going in with the same mindset.
05:02I'm going to try to be myself.
05:03I'm going to try to be open.
05:04Try to talk to, you know, as many people as I can authentically.
05:07And if I find love, what a blessing.
05:09Can we expect a different Chris?
05:11I hope so.
05:12I hope you see a more authentic Chris.
05:13I hope you see more of me.
05:14It begs the question.
05:15How many Netflix shows does it take to find the one?
05:18Where will he go if that doesn't work out?
05:20Will he give Love is Blind a try?
05:22You were just talking about this desire about specifically going on reality TV,
05:27which, you know, is not a crime.
05:28But obviously, given this show and given, like, how real it is for people
05:34and what they sacrifice showing up, I'm just wondering,
05:37did your desire to be on reality TV supersede your consideration for these feelings?
05:43Number six.
05:44Libby is closer to Andrew's daughter's age.
05:47I do want a wife.
05:48I do want a partner.
05:49Definitely someone that maybe has more life experience
05:53and that is ready for something a little bit more serious.
05:5638-year-old Andrew Wheeler has a lot to consider.
06:00As a father of two daughters,
06:01he doesn't want to introduce them to a partner who may or may not be in his life on a
06:05permanent basis.
06:06When he finds out his new partner, Libby Vodicka's age,
06:10he has something else to consider.
06:11She's closer in age to his teenage daughters than to him.
06:15How old is your oldest daughter?
06:16She's 14.
06:1714.
06:17Wow.
06:18Are you more taken back that he has a 14-year-old daughter or that he's close to 40?
06:24Both of those things threw me off a little bit.
06:26When you put it that way, it makes it sound a lot more complicated, if nothing else.
06:30As Andrew later points out,
06:32it's not giving stepmother so much as it's giving big sister.
06:35There is a part of me that is nervous that
06:40if we get to the next step and we're outside of here,
06:43these doubts and reservations will just continue.
06:45And at that point, we will be fully in and that will only get harder.
06:53I need to know if this is something you're okay with or not.
06:57I don't know what to do.
06:59Can you at least put yourself in my shoes?
07:01I put myself in your shoes and what you're saying doesn't make any sense to me.
07:05During their time in the Promise Room,
07:07Vanell Fenmu and Jorge Sanchez had a bit more to get squared away than the other couples.
07:13Not only did they have the biggest age gap in the cast,
07:16but they also probably had the most baggage.
07:18One of the big revelations that Vanell was saving herself from marriage
07:22would hang over their relationship for the rest of the season.
07:25One of the ways I have made a promise to God as to honor God with my celibacy.
07:31I've been celibate for almost two years now,
07:33and I didn't make a promise to wait till marriage.
07:36At first, Jorge seemed cool with this.
07:39But as time went on,
07:40it turns out he wasn't as comfortable with this as he said.
07:44Unfortunately, it would set a tone of dishonesty in their relationship
07:47that saw them breaking up in the fifth episode.
07:50You made it seem to me like,
07:51oh, like, I don't care about that.
07:53It's fine.
07:54Like, I'm okay with that.
07:55And then coming in here,
07:56now you're like, oh, I don't know.
07:58If you told me, I don't know,
08:00I would have went home in the Promise Room.
08:02I would have not came all the way here, lived with you.
08:06Number four, Jorge's age.
08:08My dad has said that he doesn't want me to marry anyone 10 years or older than me.
08:13But I don't date young men.
08:14Like, the oldest I would date here is the 40s.
08:17The 40s.
08:19Somewhere in the 40s.
08:20The big reveal is the entire reason age of attraction exists.
08:24What happens when a couple finds out just how big their age gap really is?
08:28Jorge Sanchez and Vanell Fenmu had the show's biggest separation at 33 years.
08:34When Jorge told her that he was 60 years old,
08:37Vanell was gagged.
08:38What?
08:40Does it affect you?
08:45It's very shocking.
08:49I literally thought you were like,
08:52oldest, like 47 or something.
08:54You can tell there's some hesitation on her part.
08:57And it's understandable.
08:58She's only 27 after all.
09:00She very quickly realizes that maybe they had to meet this way for a reason.
09:04It was everything we were hoping this show would be.
09:07He's 60.
09:10Oh my gosh.
09:12I think it's like 30, 40, 50.
09:16No.
09:1740, 50, 60.
09:19Yeah, 33.
09:20He's 33 years older than me.
09:23Number three.
09:24Tristan's preferences.
09:26When you're creating a show in hopes that single people will couple up regardless of age,
09:31you would hope that your participants are open-minded enough to make good on that premise.
09:35Tristan is almost a little too open-minded.
09:37My age range is evil.
09:39Like, no one is safe.
09:41I swear.
09:42I could date you or your mom.
09:44And I'm open to both.
09:45His interest in older women can only be described as enthusiastic.
09:49He's not afraid to tell us either.
09:51But it seems to go way deeper, with him even likening his future partner to his mother.
09:56My mom is only 19 years older than me.
09:59So when I date women that are getting up there, this is going to sound horrible.
10:03But like, if you're not as hot as my mom, I'm not going to marry you.
10:08When the producers of Age of Attraction came up with this idea,
10:11they had to know they'd attract a Tristan or two.
10:13Ironically, he was deemed too immature by the woman he was most interested in.
10:18He's really young.
10:19Little baby face.
10:21And that...
10:22I'm finding that that does matter.
10:24Number two.
10:25It's not a breakup.
10:26It's a proposal.
10:28I don't want to make promises that I can't.
10:35So...
10:40I hate the promise ring back.
10:42Look, a dramatic proposal can be romantic, but this one is borderline cruel.
10:47After dragging Vanessa up to this beautiful overlook and letting her pour her heart out,
10:52Logan starts yapping on about his doubts and how hard their relationship has been.
10:56The time alone has made me realize that maybe I'm not the man for you.
11:08Maybe I'm not good enough for you.
11:10It's really questioning that.
11:11If he went another second, he would have fully whipped out an,
11:14it's not you, it's me.
11:16He fully just lets her think she's getting dumped until he gets down on one knee and produces an
11:20engagement ring.
11:21Sir, you could have cut the speech in half.
11:23We'd be mad if it weren't such good TV.
11:26Oh my god, I'm shaking.
11:28You tricked me so hard.
11:41As it turns out, it's not necessarily the age gap that does this couple in.
11:46Vanell Fenmu asked Jorge Sanchez about whether he has children or wants them.
11:50He decides to dance around the first part of the question,
11:54instead telling her that he would be interested in having children if he got married again.
11:58If I'm gonna have a child with someone, we have to be in a marriage that's not gonna break up.
12:03I'm not willing to have no baby mamas.
12:05No, I'm not having that.
12:07So that's not gonna happen.
12:08But to answer your question, yes, I wouldn't mind having kids.
12:11He neglects to mention that he's already a father.
12:14In fact, he tells some of their fellow castmates before telling her.
12:25When he finally does tell her, he acts as if her hesitation is about his being a father,
12:30and not that he didn't tell her when the time was right.
12:33Lying by omission is still lying,
12:35and it spells trouble that the couple ultimately can't come back from.
12:39So I was just very surprised by that.
12:41And it's not an issue that he has kids.
12:44Like, I'm totally fine with it.
12:45But I just don't want it to feel like he's, like, keeping things from me.
12:49I feel like he should have known, like, who I am
12:52and the type of person that I am, that it would be okay.
12:55Are you hype for Age of Attraction Season 2?
