You are a silly willy billy!
Oh, my god.
Ahh, you are so funny!
What are you doing?
I’ve been talking to someone on Tinder, mom.
Recently, I found myself using Tinder.
Ah ha! I’ve received a Tinder match!
Ha ha ha! Another Tinder match!
Ow!
I think I’ve met the love of my life.
Boman, how do you know this is a real person?
My mom begins to tear me apart
as if I’m some sort of unidentifiable parasite.
This is unprecedented disrespect.
Really– today, right now?
I just don’t want you to get your
heart broken again and again...
We don’t know if this is a real person,
and it can happen again, and again...
—Okay, thank...thank you. —and again.
Thank you.
Maybe you’re right.
Maybe my mom has a point.
How do I know this person is who they say they are?
So what are you gonna do?
Mom, it’s time to do some sleuthing.
Oh.
I decided to write a letter to my friends at MTV’s Catfish
so that we can get to the bottom of this.
Hopefully my friends Nev and Kamie at MTV’s Catfish
can help me get to the bottom of this.
—I feel like... —Tune in to all new episodes of MTV’s Catfish!
Hello.
Oh.
—We’re... —Sorry.
—We’re literally in the middle of... —Okay, sorry.
—of a scene
Ok can we just, can we just roll to the next clip?
We got an email here from Boman.
Alright, here it is.
I recently met my soul mate on Tinder but,
—ah there is always a but.
I recently met my soulmate on Tinder but,
I have reasons to believe their life story
is nothing but an entanglement of lies,
falsehoods, contradictions and plot holes.
Wow.
Due to the extinction of voice calls in the
vast geographical distance between us,
the only way we can see each other face to face is by video chat.
However, my alleged soul mate failed to show up to our first scheduled call
embarrassing me in front of the wedding planner I had invited as a romantic surprise.
I have cut off all contact until the completion of your investigation.
With a broken heart, but the warmest regards,
Boman
Awe.
Poor, poor guy.
Boman sounds like he’s ready to jump the broom,
tie the knot, he’s ready to go the whole way.
Yeah, we should help him out.
Hi guys!
Hey what’s up, man? Boman!
Hi.
How’s it going?
How are you doing?
You know what it’s going as well as it can be.
Yeah, we read your email, um…
You mentioned that you met this guy on Tinder right?
Yes.
And, and so is their profile verified?
What do you mean verified?
So if you go to their Tinder profile, and you look at it.
Is there a blue check mark on their profile?
Yeah. There is.
Yeah. I thought that was an emoji.
—No that’s it. —That’s it then.
I mean, you’re good.
You’re in the clear.
If it’s got the blue check mark then that, those are verified photos.
Oh.
This is not what I was expecting from my first appearance on MTV’s Catfish.
I mean where’s the drama?
Where’s the...
—Tune in to all new… —Not now.
Not right now.
—Okay well then somebody’s supposed to tell me when I’m supposed to go on.
I’ll tell you when, okay?
This is ridiculous, oh my gosh.
So like that’s, that’s it?
No calling my Facebook friends for intel?
No dramatic meeting at a park?
No “you did this for what”?
None of that?
Kamie, what do you think?
No, I mean, you’re all set.
He’s verified. We’re good to go.
He’s straight, he’s good.
No problem.
Not a catfish.
