00:07Our time is kind of winding down here.
00:09You guys are either going to leave together
00:11or you're going to leave separate.
00:12Let's see what these next few days lead us to.
00:15We're going to do a talent show.
00:17Let's do a talent show.
00:18I know everybody has a talent here.
00:19I think I could do this.
00:21All right, let's go.
00:21We seem to be in this kind of friendship space,
00:25but I'm looking for something more.
00:28I'm treading carefully.
00:30Because once you cross that line,
00:32it's like you can't go back.
00:34I'd like to come to Houston.
00:36Come on down.
00:37I'm coming.
00:38I'm there.
00:38He's talking in terms of doing things together.
00:42This is the first time that I know that Paul is in it 100%.
00:46I'm very appreciative for you just being patient with me.
00:50Anything for you, honestly.
00:54My daughter has her first dance recital coming up.
00:57Tonight, I'll be leaving to go back home.
01:01I was definitely supportive.
01:03Right.
01:03But I wasn't given a lot of notice.
01:06Latina and I will need to have some deeper conversations once he gets back.
01:26Oh, my gosh.
01:28It looks so fancy.
01:30Oh, they went all out.
01:32Wow.
01:33I got you.
01:34You're welcome.
01:35Look at that.
01:37This experience is incredible.
01:39Is this hash brown?
01:39Wow.
01:41We have, you know, a few days left for everyone to figure out if we think that we can get
01:46together as a couple.
01:47Do you want me to put some on your plate?
01:49Well, I'm just a watermelon.
01:51There you go.
01:53One watermelon.
01:54I'll let you guys get some food in, but you know we want to hear about the date.
01:58We want to know.
02:00Yeah.
02:00What'd we do?
02:02Basically, like, rock climb.
02:04I've never done anything like that.
02:05So for me, it was like, you're sick, and I'm a little, you know, afraid of heights.
02:08But what kind of training did they give you before?
02:11He basically said, listen, you're going to clip one, then clip the other one.
02:19I'm just, I'm really, like, proud of this one here, because I know that took a lot.
02:24And, I mean, again, like, there were moments, too, where, like, I think all of us were kind of, like,
02:28we're up on the side of this cliff, like, actually, you know, doing this stuff.
02:32Are you glad you did it?
02:33Honestly, yeah, because, like, I don't ever push myself that hard, but, like, this time, like, I really pushed myself,
02:39and I think Flake was there to, like, help me with that, you know, so.
02:43Nice.
02:43Yeah.
02:44It showed the supportive side of him and how brave you are, you know?
02:48So I think it was, as crazy as it was, it was perfect, because y'all saw, you know, sides
02:52of each other that y'all haven't seen yet.
02:54Yeah.
02:54So it was, I think it was dope.
02:55That's a beautiful thing.
02:57Yeah.
02:57That's a beautiful thing.
02:58You're stronger than you think you are, girl.
03:00It's a breath of fresh air to be with somebody who cares about me and keeps me safe.
03:10Little sailboats.
03:11I want to do that so bad.
03:13Our time is coming to an end.
03:16I do wish I had a bit more time to explore these feelings, but right now I am feeling very
03:23happy.
03:24And then we get down and they're like, oh, we're going to go on another one.
03:27And I'm like, say what?
03:31You know, we finished the second one and then we just had a nice little moment on top of the
03:36rock.
03:38Yeah, hold up, right.
03:39Right.
03:40I'm like, what was so nice about it?
03:42I know the view was beautiful, but.
03:44It was definitely a very, like, romantic, like, memory.
03:50Nice.
03:53Nice little kiss on top of the mountain, yeah.
03:56Oh, you did.
03:57We did.
03:58Oh.
03:58We did, Leslie.
03:59Oh, oh.
04:00It was nice.
04:01It's been, I mean, since like 15 years, you know, like, so that was our first one.
04:07I love the fact Camille is getting outside of her comfort zone and that's where growth is.
04:13And that's what I look for in a relationship is, is building that together.
04:18So I see that in our relationship where, you know, nothing can stop us.
04:25Can you pour me some water?
04:27Shakira, any idea of when Matina's coming back?
04:30Um, I definitely believe he'll be back today.
04:32I don't know what time, but.
04:33Okay, but he is back today.
04:35That's, that's, that's the plan.
04:37Y'all still haven't had a chance to talk about, like, how he left so.
04:40Yeah, no, no, no.
04:41And it was like, tonight, a few hours.
04:43A couple hours, I'm gone.
04:44But, I don't know.
04:48Time is winding down and Matina still isn't here.
04:52This is the first time Matina has kind of disappointed me and kind of broke my trust a little bit.
04:58I mean, that's sort of a big thing that's happening in his world.
05:01He needs to share that with you.
05:02Yeah, and like, that's something that I would have loved to connect it on.
05:05Mmm.
05:05You know, that's right.
05:07I definitely believe it's something that we could possibly work through.
05:10I just don't know how the conversation is going to go when he gets back.
05:13And I did some inner thinking.
05:15I'm like, well, maybe I haven't really opened up my family.
05:18Like, here, here's the daughters.
05:20Here's my girl.
05:20So, you know, maybe I need to meet him halfway there with that and just talk about those things.
05:26So, I'm excited for conversations.
05:28There you go.
05:30I think that Shakira and Matina are going to 100% endure.
05:34Their temperaments are just so similar.
05:37Their personalities are quite similar.
05:39They seem like an ideal couple.
05:42So, I think that this is the beginning of their love story.
05:46Okay.
05:47Let's do it.
05:48Go team.
06:01Go team.
06:02Just let me see in me.
06:07Just let me know.
06:10Okay.
06:11Yeah?
06:12It's getting better.
06:13Good.
06:14So, it's the day of the talent show.
06:17It's been a minute since I personally have been, like, up on a, like, stage, I guess, in front of
06:23an audience.
06:24You know, that's kind of like a home base for Camille and I.
06:27So, can't wait to, you know, do this duet with her.
06:30Are you confused at all still?
06:31Mm-hmm.
06:32I feel like we should just keep, like, practicing at it.
06:35Okay.
06:35Let's run it.
06:37Let's run it.
06:39All right.
06:40Time out.
06:42So, we have a talent show that we're going to be doing.
06:44People don't understand, you know, what it's like to be a teenager.
06:48So, I'm going to be doing some stand-up.
06:49I have some material that I've been kind of kicking around.
06:52He's, like, shaking, sweating a little bit.
06:56We'll make this our starting.
06:58That's the top of the run.
06:59She's going to walk it two times.
07:02Then, when I start going, then the song that I wrote, this is special, meaningful, and this.
07:07That's how that goes.
07:09Paul, you can be on the side of the runway.
07:11I know where to be.
07:11I know where I'm going to be.
07:13Okay.
07:14You clear it up?
07:14Yes.
07:15Okay.
07:15He's got it.
07:17Okay.
07:17So, you go first.
07:19Everyone is participating in the talent show.
07:22Latina and I discuss possibly doing something together before he left.
07:26Then, we'll continue walking down, kiss the photographer, then we'll go back.
07:32But, given the short notice, Leslie pulled me on in and said, hey, you can be a part of my
07:37show.
07:37So, I'm also promoting women that have to work with a cane.
07:40Mm-hmm.
07:41That canes are cool.
07:42And that's it.
07:43Then it's over.
07:44Yeah.
07:45So, I was diagnosed with MS 25 years ago.
07:49Some days I can walk, and some days I cannot walk at all.
07:53And other days I just have to use the assistance of a cane.
07:56There always is that chance that it could be more debilitating.
08:00And, in all fairness, that's something Paul would have to consider.
08:05I have to tell you, I wrote a song for you.
08:07I heard.
08:08Somebody blabbed.
08:09No, you said it.
08:10Just now?
08:11Ha, ha, ha, ha.
08:12What?
08:13What?
08:14Never mind.
08:15Never mind.
08:16Okay.
08:20All right, so, this is what I got for the talent show.
08:22I want your opinion on it.
08:25Boston, Texas, no matter where we at, can't be blind to the signs when they come back.
08:31Hey, girl, hey.
08:32Hi.
08:33One last dance.
08:35Let's not repeat the past, but refine the future on this second chance.
08:42Dang, dude.
08:43That was straight, right?
08:44Mr. Shakespeare over here.
08:46That was straight, not too bad, right?
08:47I don't want to keep it too long, you know?
08:49For the talent show, I was working on a poem for Autumn.
08:53You just came up with that?
08:54Yeah, on top of the head.
08:57And it's just basically, it's telling her how I feel about her.
09:01Have you done this stuff for her before?
09:03No, this will be the first time.
09:04Oh, dang.
09:05So, we'll see how she reacts to it.
09:07Maybe I'm expressing too much.
09:09Telling her how I feel.
09:11And, you know, now the ball's on her side of the court, so.
09:16We'll see.
09:16We'll see how she takes it, you know?
09:18She might not like it.
09:19Growing up, I was very, very shy.
09:21But for some reason, theater class, just, I was allowed to be someone else.
09:27The fear of speaking to people, being loud, engaging, not afraid to look ugly, all that
09:34stuff just went away.
09:35All it takes is a little spark of something to inspire me, and I could just roll with it.
09:40Dude.
09:40I could just roll with it.
09:41It's all about that.
09:42It's just like, you know, you got to be inspired by stuff.
09:44You know, with Autumn on her date, like, I see the way that she looks at you, and, you
09:48know, you guys are having a fun time scaling up the side of the cliff, and there was that
09:52teamwork, you know, thing there.
09:55It's there, bro, it's there.
09:57It's just, we have to, we have to work towards it.
10:01She's getting a lot more comfortable.
10:02She's getting closer to me.
10:04You know, she's grabbing my arm, holding, those are little things that I'm seeing that
10:09are building up.
10:10And that's cool.
10:11I'm fine with the pace, you know, that we're at.
10:13So, you know, it's just sometimes hard to go ahead and open up, and sometimes you just
10:20don't even know if the person actually feels the same way.
10:24All of the guys, we had a conversation with Chili, and she said, you guys got to let them
10:29know how you feel.
10:30Lay it all out.
10:31It might have an effect on the decision by the end of this.
10:35We'll see.
10:36It's scary because, you know, I'm exposed, vulnerable.
10:42So, it's a chance that I'm taking.
10:45You just got to do it.
10:47Leave no stone unturned.
10:49It's that whole entire thing.
10:51100%, like, you do that, you do your part.
10:54You know what I'm saying?
10:55Yep.
10:55So, yeah, we'll see.
10:57We'll see.
10:57But we're going to go out there, do our thing tonight, and just be great.
11:01Yeah.
11:02I got you.
11:03Appreciate you, bro.
11:03I got you, boomer.
11:04For sure.
11:05I got you.
11:06Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:06Thanks for letting me hear it.
11:10What do you want to do when this is over?
11:14Do you think you and Calvin will continue to, like, I know you're, like, taking it slow
11:17and, like, definitely want to iron out this friendship?
11:20I mean, I think the friend stuff will be easy for us if a relationship is something that
11:27we would both want and if it would work because, like, I don't want to force something.
11:33Like, I know it can be work to be in a relationship.
11:37Like, I guess both sides have to put in the work, but...
11:40It's so funny.
11:41I don't want to force it, you know?
11:42Yeah, yeah.
11:42Like, I don't want it to be, like, delusional thinking where you think it's going to change
11:46and it's just not that at the time.
11:49Me and Calvin, it kind of feels a little too real for the amount of time that we've had.
11:55We're still trying to figure things out and see if we would work as a couple.
12:01I think we still need more time.
12:04I've been thinking about how, you know, this will, like, transition to home.
12:11Messina and I, like, we've definitely kind of reconnected while we were out here.
12:15We had a little...
12:16We're having a little speed bump.
12:21Trying, you know, want to see how this goes and what it's going to look like in the real world.
12:26Yeah, this time is great, but it's, like, unrealistic.
12:29Right.
12:29It's not going to be like this back at home at all.
12:32Yeah.
12:33Like, we're going to be back in reality.
12:35Mm-hmm.
12:36Y'all don't live next to each other right now?
12:38Mm-hmm.
12:38Like, my children and I work in North Carolina.
12:41It was, like, a seven-hour car ride.
12:44Y'all both got kids.
12:45And it's definitely going to be something to navigate.
12:47Yeah.
12:48Some conversations that need to be had.
12:50And, um, so I definitely have love for Mateen.
12:52I have had love for him.
12:54But I also am very, um, realistic, and I feel like I have high expectations.
12:59I don't know.
13:00We'll see how this goes.
13:07In terms of romance, you know, we haven't really moved in that direction.
13:12Are you nervous?
13:13Yes.
13:14Because I wasn't fully ready to have this conversation.
13:19We've got a talent show?
13:21Yes!
13:22All the couples, we created something together.
13:25Wakinda forever.
13:27Wakinda!
13:29Hey!
13:30Hi!
13:32Hey!
13:32How was your trip?
13:33It was good.
13:34That's good.
13:35What happened?
13:36Oh, okay.
13:37I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
13:48Oh, my God.
13:51Trying not to get sand in my shoes.
13:54It's already in mine.
13:56Razmi and I have this dinner.
13:58I set it up.
13:59It's going to be a sunset dinner.
14:01But I'm definitely nervous after the conversation we had.
14:04It doesn't feel like you want to be with me.
14:08I don't want to ruin our friendship.
14:10It sounds like it's unlikely that you're ever going to want to take that chance.
14:15Maybe not.
14:17I'm not sure where things, you know, will go after that.
14:21But I think it's important to, like Chili said, just kind of name your feelings and talk about it.
14:27Oh, my goodness.
14:30Time is running down.
14:32Mm-hmm.
14:32I feel like we just got started.
14:35Mm-hmm.
14:35Yeah.
14:36Like, started to, like, you know, talk and open up.
14:40Yeah.
14:40There's always a risk, you know, in any relationship.
14:44Right.
14:45It's a big, you know, it's a big step to take to move in that direction and take that risk.
14:50Yeah.
14:51All right.
14:55What did you get?
14:57Um, tempura octopus.
14:59Oh, nice.
15:01So.
15:02Are you nervous?
15:03How are you feeling?
15:04Yeah.
15:05Uh, yes.
15:06Because I wasn't really fully ready to have this conversation.
15:11Mm-hmm.
15:12Yeah.
15:13So.
15:13Well, I will say that, like, our conversation yesterday was helpful.
15:19I think we, at certain points, we wonder, like, what would happen, you know, if we were both single, right?
15:24Mm-hmm.
15:24So this was definitely that opportunity to kind of get some understanding of what, you know, romance could be between
15:33us.
15:33Do you feel like you got the answer?
15:36In terms of romance, you know, we've kind of just stayed in that kind of friendship space.
15:43We do have, you know, um, some compatibility, and then there's some that I feel like we're not.
15:51Mm-hmm.
15:52You know?
15:52You know, and that's okay, right?
15:55Right.
15:55That's what we came here to find out.
15:56I thought, you know, with, because we have this connection, and we kind of, like, are in sync about a
16:03lot of things, I thought maybe that might be an indication that there was more to this, right?
16:08than what we've seen, I guess, what more are you looking for in your partner?
16:14I just have to have that feeling, that spark, you know, with somebody, and not a friend.
16:20I mean, I want, you know, somebody to be there for me, and on top of that, for me to
16:25feel the passion, you know, that spark.
16:29Do you think that if we, if I met you and we weren't friends for so long, and we felt
16:34that spark without the history of the friendship?
16:38Yeah.
16:38Do you think that we could, could have gone in a romantic direction?
16:41Yeah, absolutely.
16:44Yeah.
16:45That's so funny.
16:47I think I'm just, um, stuck on this, uh, like, that we're friends, and I don't want to ruin that
16:54for anything.
16:55Yeah.
16:57We'll have great memories, and we'll still be in each other's lives.
17:02Yeah.
17:02We've had, uh, an amazing time here, you know?
17:06You know, I think we've had a lot of fun.
17:10To get, uh, reunited.
17:13Like, when I saw you, I was so giddy.
17:15And I just heard you start laughing, and you got closer.
17:18And I was like, there she is.
17:20Yep, there she is.
17:21And, like, on our first date, I opened up, you know, quite a bit.
17:26Like, I felt really close to you that night.
17:28Mm-hmm.
17:28Yeah.
17:29You know?
17:29I feel like I understand you better, you know.
17:32Um.
17:33Yeah.
17:33But this is about, you know, connecting and finding love.
17:39Yeah.
17:39So I think for, in terms of this experience, it sounds like for me, you know, we'll be leaving as
17:44friends.
17:44Yeah.
17:47Still.
17:48Still friends, yeah.
17:50For me, that's a success.
17:51Mm-hmm.
17:53I feel a sense of relief.
17:54Love doesn't always have to be romantic.
17:58It can be just friendship.
18:01Uh, look at how beautiful the sunset is on the water.
18:03I was afraid the friendship dynamic may change a little bit because of this experience, but I think that we
18:11will still remain friends.
18:12I would only wish the best for you.
18:15I think any woman that comes into your life would be so lucky to have you.
18:19Mm-hmm.
18:21That's sweet.
18:25You know, it seems like there's just no path for romance for us.
18:29It was good that we kind of came to an agreement on that.
18:32But it's a huge bummer for me, you know, very, very disappointing.
18:37I wanted to come to this experience and find romance.
18:42Toast to a forever friendship.
18:46Cheers.
18:47Cheers.
18:48I don't know what she was looking for in this experience.
18:52It would have been great, obviously, if I could have connected with her and left, you know, on a different
19:00foot.
19:19I am 100% happy I made that decision to see my daughter's first ever dance recital.
19:25It was great to share that I couldn't miss it for the world.
19:29Oh, wow.
19:30Hey.
19:31Hi.
19:32Hey.
19:33Hey, everybody.
19:34Oh, my.
19:35Welcome back.
19:36Good to see you, bro.
19:37Is that for me?
19:38Welcome back.
19:39Yes, it is.
19:39Is that for me?
19:40I gave Shakira a Philly pretzel.
19:43There ain't nothing like that that'll break the ice on anything.
19:45I'm in the clear, you know what I mean?
19:47It's a pretzel, a soft pretzel.
19:49Oh, you did answer that.
19:51I did.
19:51No, welcome back.
19:53I hope it was, it went well.
19:55What's up?
19:56How are you, Kenny?
19:57How are you feeling?
19:58I'm good, I'm good, I'm good.
20:00You got walking sticks?
20:01I had to have a talent.
20:03You weren't here, you know.
20:04You left.
20:06No problem.
20:07We got time.
20:08We got time.
20:09A little sawddy, but, you know, here I am.
20:11Oh, dang.
20:12Uh, let me go.
20:13Thank you, brother.
20:18Roomies.
20:18What's going on?
20:19You're back.
20:21What's going on?
20:21We missed you.
20:23How'd it go?
20:23It was all right, it was great.
20:25Yeah?
20:25I'm so confused.
20:26Because he hugged everyone.
20:28And then, now, you know.
20:30I'm glad that Mateen is back.
20:34I definitely wanted Mateen to go to his daughter's recital,
20:38but waiting to the last minute to say something
20:40kind of broke my trust a little bit.
20:43There's a lot that we need to talk about.
20:44What's going on?
20:45Like, what are we getting into right now?
20:47About to do this talent show.
20:48Talent show.
20:50This will be interesting.
20:52It'll be fun.
20:54It'll be fun.
20:55Do you remember your talent, what you were going to do?
20:57Uh, got a magic trick.
20:59Take my thumb off.
21:00Oh, no problem.
21:03I mean, that's going to be the best one.
21:05All right.
21:05Save some of that prize money for us.
21:07I'll open up the floor for him to come and do something.
21:10He got any hidden talents?
21:12Apparently, he has a poker face.
21:13And I'm like, oh, right.
21:16Stop.
21:19This might be a saving grace.
21:20If you would have gotten a prize, would I?
21:23Never know with me.
21:25I'm going to wait for half a day.
21:26This is what it comes to.
21:27Let's walk and talk.
21:28All right.
21:29Let's do that.
21:31Shakira is giving me the cold shoulder.
21:33She's not really saying too much.
21:34I don't know what's going on.
21:36This is kind of out of character.
21:38Because before I left at the winery, everything seemed to be good.
21:42What did I do?
21:43I thought we was here.
21:44When did the beef start?
21:47Oh, OK.
21:48There's no beef.
21:49OK.
21:49There's no, OK, I guess.
21:51OK.
21:52How was your trip?
21:54It was good.
21:55That's good.
21:56I'm in a whole new space now.
21:58I go away.
21:59What's happening?
22:00Hello.
22:00Hey, everybody.
22:03I just started sweating.
22:04Oh, baby, me too.
22:05Me too.
22:06We got a talent show?
22:07Yes.
22:08Talent is a very broad.
22:11I think we want to get this talent show on the road,
22:13but we'll definitely have a conversation.
22:15What's going on?
22:16You will have to see.
22:21I'm going to freak out.
22:22I have terrible stage fright, and to talent show,
22:25it's my worst nightmare.
22:26I actually can't do this.
22:27Hold on, stop.
22:28I can't breathe.
22:29Switch me.
22:30Switch me.
22:30It's OK.
22:31I have one for you.
22:32You have one for me?
22:33Yeah.
22:34Baby, we're back.
22:36Every single time he sings,
22:37it brings up a lot of emotions.
22:40I can see this as my future.
22:48We got a talent show?
22:50Yes.
22:51That's what's happening?
22:52Yes.
22:52Wow.
22:53Talent is a very broad.
22:55It is, it is.
22:56I can't wait.
22:57I mean, we're not like, it's just all just for fun.
23:00It is all just for fun.
23:01Yeah.
23:02All right, so where are we going, guys?
23:03Over here.
23:04OK.
23:05Over here.
23:05Let's do it.
23:06Let's go.
23:06Let's go.
23:07Yeah, let's get it started.
23:08Where's the stage?
23:10All the world's a stage.
23:11All the world's a stage.
23:13And all the men and women are merely players.
23:14She's being cold right now, and I don't know why.
23:18And it's time for the talent show,
23:20so it's no real room for conversation.
23:22But you got to take things in a moment.
23:25So after this talent show, I'll figure out what's going on.
23:43Mateen and Shakira's relationship.
23:45There is some tension in the air.
23:49You want to sit here?
23:50Yeah.
23:51But they're an amazing couple together.
23:53They just need to sit down and talk.
23:55I think they'll be OK.
23:56I really do.
23:57Are you ready for this?
23:58Yes.
23:58Let's do it.
23:59I hear it.
24:00Oh, I actually can't do this.
24:01Hold on.
24:02Stop.
24:02I can't breathe.
24:03Switch me.
24:04Switch me.
24:04It's OK.
24:05No, you can.
24:06Switch me.
24:06You can.
24:06You can.
24:06Switch me.
24:07Please, God, switch me.
24:08I don't know who's next.
24:09I have a script.
24:10Just take it.
24:10No.
24:11Leslie came up and asked me if I would host a talent show.
24:14And I didn't want to say no, so I just told her, like,
24:17yeah, sure, I'll do it.
24:19She had a whole script ready for me.
24:21And I was like, oh, yeah.
24:23Like, I got it.
24:23I can do this.
24:24I'll just take the paper up there.
24:25I'll read it.
24:26It'll be fine.
24:27Nobody knows this about me, but I have terrible stage fright.
24:31Hello, Miss Autumn.
24:32Hello.
24:33What's up?
24:34Hi, everybody.
24:34And to get in front of all of these people and host a talent
24:37show, that is my worst nightmare.
24:39So, you take this.
24:42We're switching positions.
24:43Low role reversal?
24:45Yes.
24:47Autumn and I were supposed to be co-hosts,
24:49but then I had to run the talent show all by myself.
24:54And I will just be sort of like a Simon Cowell or something like that.
24:58Welcome to the first Second Chance Love talent show.
25:02It is my honor to present the multi-talented competitors this evening.
25:09Our first talent is the team of Leslie and Paul, accompanied by Shakira.
25:16Nice.
25:16I'm impressed.
25:17We're going to take some time in this.
25:18Okay.
25:19So, as many of you know, I have multiple sclerosis.
25:24And because of that, I actually am a little unstable.
25:27And so, Shakira and I are going to be modeling, actually, canes,
25:31because we want to show the world that canes can be cool.
25:37Wow.
25:38All right.
25:39And Paul, because I'm modeling, and back in the day, that's how we met.
25:43I was a model, and Paul was a photographer.
25:45So, he's going to be taking some photographs.
25:47I wrote some lyrics, and Blake and Camille, and they put it to music.
25:53It's a special song that is actually my gift to Paul.
25:58Aw.
25:59No.
26:00So.
26:01Yeah.
26:02All right.
26:05Ready when you are.
26:10Woo-hoo.
26:11She's a gal from H-town.
26:13Oh, and he's a guy from the Isle of Mercer.
26:17Yeah, ladies.
26:19Leslie, she has MS that slows her down a little bit, and I know with Leslie and I, that would
26:25never be an issue.
26:26The love that Leslie and I had 45 years ago lends itself to a pretty good foundation going
26:32forward, but we'll just have to wait and see.
26:35Walking the walk, walking the walk with you.
26:40Their song, which Leslie had written, the lyrics, was really nice.
26:44I was impressed.
26:45I think I'll take a picture.
26:49Does she see it?
26:51Oh, yeah.
26:55She care looks beautiful.
26:57Leslie looks beautiful.
26:58Paul's snapping pictures left and right.
27:00It's nice to see.
27:01Just let me know.
27:03Walking the walk.
27:05Walking the walk.
27:07Walking the walk with you.
27:10You know, Paul and Leslie have this massive amounts of, like, of history with each other.
27:15It's like, you know, seeing that and being a part of that is, like, one of the coolest experiences.
27:21Let it just let me know.
27:28Did you even listen?
27:29Did you listen?
27:30Yes.
27:32You two beautiful models, just Mr. Handsome taking the pictures.
27:38Oh, my gosh, that song, The Words, just touched my heart because I know there's history in that.
27:43So thank you so much.
27:45Razmi is doing an incredible job as a host.
27:48One of the things I learned about Razmi is that she was always kind of like the clown in her
27:51family.
27:52Are you ready to laugh?
27:54She would make them laugh and do all these impersonations.
27:58But this experience, it also helped me understand that we might not be as compatible as I thought.
28:03And sometimes in love, you do have to take a risk.
28:06And it's not always going to go, you know, the way that you want it to go.
28:09And that's okay.
28:12Next, we have stand-up comedy by our one and only, Alan.
28:23It's hard being biracial sometimes.
28:25You know, I feel like we need a champion for my people.
28:28We need a beige panther.
28:31And it'll be like, what kind of forever.
28:36Alan is super funny in his stand-up.
28:42He's exactly the same as we were when we were kids.
28:46You know, it's hard.
28:47My African ancestors and my European ancestors are, like, fighting inside of me.
28:50My European ancestors love cheese.
28:53My African ancestors are lactose intolerant.
28:57People don't understand what it's like to be a teenager and have to come out of the closet as black
29:02to your white German mother.
29:04You know, like, mom, sit down and have something very, very important to say.
29:08And she's like, more important than cleaning your room?
29:11Whenever I do comedy, I am kind of, like, putting myself out there.
29:14You take parts of yourself that are important and you share those with other people.
29:18And that can create the possibility that they can understand, you know, you a little bit better.
29:23I'm like, mom, I have something to tell you.
29:24There's a reason I like to season my food.
29:28There's a reason I like to dance.
29:31I was like, all right, I'm just going to say it.
29:33Mother, I'm black.
29:37Oh, guys, you're so good.
29:42Alan's stand-up comedy gig was really funny.
29:45That was so good.
29:46You had a lot of great gems in there.
29:48I wasn't expecting him to be quite that humorous, but I thought he was hilarious.
29:53Thank you so much for that performance.
29:55I mean, that was brilliant.
29:57Next, we have Calvin with an original poem reading.
30:02Oh.
30:03Calvin.
30:04Let's go.
30:05Nice.
30:08I'm very nervous.
30:09It's not like it's me and her behind closed doors.
30:12I'm telling everyone exactly how I feel about her.
30:16But what I'm about to express, I need to get out of my chest because it's messing with me mentally.
30:26All right.
30:29I'm so confused now.
30:31I don't know what's going on anymore.
30:32I feel like I'm in the twilight zone.
30:34Like, what happened?
30:35I feel like I'm 0
30:45Next, we have Calvin with an original poem reading
30:50Oh, this is Calvin.
31:04All right, Boston, Texas, Italy, even the moon, like the connection is dead no matter
31:14how long we haven't seen each other or where we're at.
31:17The signs, I'm not blind to them.
31:20I know when they come back, you know, like the smile, the butterflies, that feeling that
31:27I get when I see you, it's, I can't ignore that.
31:32For you, it might not be a big deal, but I'm having a hard time expressing how I actually
31:37feel because I just, I just wish we could just go back in time, stay together and seal
31:43the deal, but we can't do that.
31:46Yeah, so I guess I gotta put my pride to the side, face my fear.
31:54Even if you don't feel the same, man, I shed a couple of tears.
31:58When I'm with you, all my troubles go away, you know, you all I wanted, what I asked for
32:04when I pray.
32:05So all I'm asking is for one last dance.
32:09Let's not rewrite the past, let's re-find the future on this second chance.
32:22It was just really flattering to see him get up there in front of all his people and tell
32:27me how he feels about me in a different way.
32:30I like that confident side of him, and it's something I lack, and it's given me a lot
32:35to think about, about what I really want in a partner.
32:39Thank you so much, that was brilliant.
32:42And finally, please welcome the collaboration, composer, and vocals by Blake and Kim.
32:48Thank you for it.
32:52All right.
32:53Um.
32:54We wrote this.
32:55We wrote this.
32:56Yeah.
32:57We don't really have a name for it, but, um.
32:59We'll say, let me back to you.
33:01That's, that's, that's the name of it.
33:03Here we go.
33:03All right.
33:13Seems like yesterday, time has gone away, I need you.
33:23Making music with Blake, it definitely brought us closer.
33:26It just brings me back to, like, when we first met.
33:29And all this time, I've been waiting.
33:37Camille and I are writing these original songs.
33:41All I've been praying.
33:43There's this, this chemistry that we have.
33:46My mind, boy.
33:48It's all come to this performance of really showcasing what we mean to each other.
33:52All of this, let me back to you.
33:59All of this, let me back to you.
34:06All of this, let me back to you.
34:12Woo!
34:13Wow!
34:14Yeah!
34:15How are you doing?
34:15Wow!
34:16Yeah!
34:17That was really, really good.
34:19I felt the love.
34:20Aw.
34:21Oh.
34:24Blake and Cam, I saw them, you know, craft these songs over the past couple of days.
34:30I love being a part of that.
34:32I have one for you.
34:34You have one for me?
34:35Yeah.
34:35Yeah, yeah.
34:36I have one for you.
34:36What?
34:37Should I sit?
34:38Yeah.
34:39Okay, I'm gonna sit for this one.
34:42So this one, and I wrote this about, like, our experience and how I'm feeling through music.
34:49It's pretty, it's pretty fun.
34:51It's called, uh, Baby We're Back.
34:52So here we, here we go.
34:54I'm gonna cry.
34:59We, we can't help ourselves.
35:02We're falling one more time before life comes past us by.
35:11It's awesome to just have this moment with Camille and, like, you know, let her know how I'm feeling through
35:20music.
35:32Every single time he sings brings up a lot of emotions.
35:36I can see this as my future.
35:40I hope he feels the same way.
35:43I can't help myself.
35:48Every time I look at her, my heart melts.
35:51That's what I want with someone.
35:53It's like, every time you look at them, you know, you smile and you get those, those butterflies.
35:58And so, I just, I see a future with her.
36:02In time, we'll find a way to fly.
36:05And, baby, we're back.
36:08We're back in love again.
36:12And, baby, we're back.
36:15Woo!
36:17Woo!
36:17Woo!
36:17We're back.
36:18Woo!
36:22Woo!
36:23Woo!
36:23Woo!
36:24Woo!
36:28You guys all did such an amazing job.
36:30I know.
36:31And each one was special in its own way.
36:34Woo!
36:34Most impressed that you guys put this together yourselves.
36:38Congratulations, you guys.
36:39Woo!
36:40Woo!
36:41Woo!
36:42Thank you all so very much.
36:44I hope you all have a lovely evening.
36:46Thank you so much for coming.
36:47It was lovely.
36:49It was lovely.
36:50Yeah.
36:51Yeah.
36:52Yay!
36:56Collectively as a group, all the couples, we created something together.
37:00Something that we can all be proud of.
37:02Yeah, that was beautiful.
37:03That was fun.
37:04That was fun.
37:05Walking sticks.
37:06That was so great.
37:07That was fun.
37:09Everybody's all excited and happy that things are finished, but...
37:14No, but you...
37:16What's going on?
37:17Um...
37:18Can we talk about...
37:19Yeah, let's get it started.
37:20Shakira doesn't seem as enthusiastic.
37:23I don't know what's going on anymore.
37:25I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
37:26I come back and we got instant beef.
37:29Like, what happened?
37:30Like...
37:30It's not beef.
37:32Disappointment.
37:33Wow, that's heavy.
37:34That's heavy on the heart.
37:36Yeah.
37:47Wow, that's heavy.
37:49That's heavy on the heart.
37:51Yeah.
37:52I'm disappointed that, you know, I didn't get more notice.
37:56In your departure.
37:58That's not something that just happens, you know.
38:01Mm-hmm.
38:02I understand your reasoning.
38:03I definitely support all that.
38:05I would never want you not to go.
38:07Um, but like I said, I wish I would have had more time and more notice to know that that
38:13was what's happening because I...
38:15Yeah.
38:17Communication is key.
38:19Communication is key.
38:20Very important.
38:21It is.
38:21I do understand your disdain.
38:25I was nervous.
38:26Probably should have told her when I first got here, but I was enjoying the experience, enjoying every moment for
38:33what it was.
38:34So I thought me waiting to the last minute would be the best way to go about it.
38:39Probably wasn't the best decision.
38:42But I didn't feel like I was doing the wrong thing in the moment.
38:46So now, we're here.
38:49I didn't think he was going to be mad.
38:50Like, I thought you would have cussed me out at the vineyard for that.
38:53Like, you know what I mean?
38:54This is very unlikely.
38:56What happened?
38:57Knowing you...
38:58I was supposed to go for it.
38:59I was definitely supportive.
39:00Right.
39:00But if you had an issue with it or felt that level of disappointment, usually you'd...
39:05Instantly.
39:06I had to think about it.
39:07This time...
39:08So these are the things I thought about when I got back.
39:10And then, the notice, I definitely would wish you would have told me sooner.
39:16That that's something that you were going to do.
39:20Like, I gotta go through my process.
39:22Let things go.
39:24So how have you been these first two days?
39:26Or a day and a half, maybe?
39:29It's been...
39:30Different.
39:31You know, without you here.
39:33Really?
39:34Yeah.
39:37Kind of being alone.
39:39But it was fine.
39:40It was not something I anticipated.
39:41But, again, I know what you went for.
39:45So I'm definitely proud of you.
39:47And it speaks to your character.
39:50But...
39:50But for not saying anything to you.
39:53Also speaks to character.
39:54Right.
39:55But, you know, this is like our first riff.
39:58And, you know, I appreciate you coming and being sincere and talking to me.
40:05So right now, I want us to continue to work through this.
40:08And talk through this.
40:10And hopefully, this leads to growth.
40:12I totally understand.
40:13I appreciate that.
40:15I'm just hoping to move forward from this moment.
