My life is never--
(button beeping) Oh my gosh.
Because I'm a creative person?

When the button lights up red, either player may press it
and swap out their date for a new person.

they win an all-expenses-paid second date.

'Cause I look younger? (chuckles)

You have a really nice smile.
- Thank you.
- And you have a really sincere voice.
- Voice?
(button beeping)

Did you go to Terrace?

(Sky laughs) Can I still show them, or no?
(Sky laughs)

Just guessing. (laughs)

- What do you want?
- I don't know, that's why I haven't gotten one yet.
(button beeping)
- [Button] Oh, wow, was it the tattoos?
- The indecisiveness.
I like somebody who knows what they want, you know?
Hello.

And then right after work I like to get a run in,
do some weights.
- Do you have any other hobbies?
- Hobbies?
I can't really say I'm that interesting.
- [Button] Austin.
What was up with that?
- The fact that you don't have any other hobbies.
I'm a very creative person, I guess.
My life is never.
(button beeping) Oh my gosh.
Because I'm a creative person?
- No, just, you're not cute, sorry.
- [Button] Ouch, ouch, ouch.
- I'm not cute?
Okay, I'm not cute. (laughs)

- Oh, I love running.
- [Button] Would you go running with him?
- I'm like a walker.
I like to walk with my dog and not run with my dog.
- You're a dogger?
- [Button] Austin, do you like dogs?
(button beeping)
- Aw weak, you caught me when I was looking up.
- My dog is my child. (laughs)
- Sorry, I am not a dog person.
- It's okay.
- [Austin] I love cats.
- [Button] Why did you reject him?
- If you're not a dog person,
that's a deal breaker. (laughs)
- [Danny] I'm Danny.
April, nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.
- [Button] Okay, right away.
Are you attracted to each other?
- Do you find me attractive?
- I do not, but you seem funny.
- Yeah.
- [Button] Danny says he has a good sense of humor.
Tell her a joke.
- A joke?
Oh, you gotta do me a joke like this?
- Science puns are my thing.
So if you got a good one for me?
- A science pun, do you have a science pun?
Can you help me out with this?
- Are you made out of 11 protons
because you are sodium fine.
(Danny chuckles)
(April laughs)
It's okay, come at me, I gave my share.
- All right, I know you gave your share.
I gotta do it too.
(awkward music)
(button beeping)
- Dang, that's it?
(April laughs)
- [Button] Sorry, Danny. - It was nice meeting you.
- Nice to meet you too, yeah, for real.
- Yes. (laughs)
- [Button] Why did you reject him?
- We asked him for a joke, but I still had to give first.
And so it's definitely giving
I have to take the initiative.
Hi. - [Miles] Hello, how are you?
- Good, good, like the pants.
- I love the hair.
(April laughs)
- [Button] I like this, you look good together.
- Oh thank you, I think we look good together.
- Thank you, thank you.
- [Button] Miles is a great cook.
(miles chuckles)
- What's your go-to?
- I'm from Louisiana so I definitely like making
like a seafood pasta.
- My seafood pasta dish is a linguini frutti di mare.
That's my favorite to make.
- Ooh man, so you trying to have a pasta cook off?
- [Button] Talk about your last relationship.
(Miles laughs)
- My last relationship ended terribly.
I was out for work, I came back home,
turns out she cheated on me
and also got pregnant with that guy's child.
- Do you think there's anything
that you could have recognized earlier on?
- Definitely.
I think it was because, I think I noticed
some red flags and stuff like that.
Like personality just hit a whole 180,
but I think I didn't want to like, believe it.
So I was trying to drown myself in work.
You know, 2020 was not my best year, so.
(button beeping)
- I'm sorry, it has nothing to do with any of that.
Just FYI. (chuckles)
- No, no, it's fine, it's totally fine.
I appreciate you.
- It was nice meeting you. - Sorry Miles.
- Nah, it's okay.
- [Button] Why did you reject him?
- How many times did he ask me about myself?
- [Button] Good point girl.
(April laughs)

oh I kind of miss the company.
- Yeah, but I have my dog too.
You're not a allergic to dogs, are you?
- [Egypt] No, I love dogs.
- Okay, that was a deal breaker. Someone wasn't into dogs.
- I love dogs. - Yeah, okay.
- Dogs love me. (April laughs)
You know what I'm saying?
What made you dye your hair orange?
- I have a skin condition.
Psoriasis.
I have a platform where I am trying to
like normalize the beauty standards
of trying to make people comfortable in their skin.
I'm trying to trend orange to be psoriasis awareness.
- Okay. - So this is me.
- Yeah. - Trending it
as much as possible and now it's become kind of my look.
- [Button] It is so cute.
(both laugh)
- It is, I agree.
- [Button] Ask her if she likes daddy's.
(April laughs)
- Okay.
- What does that mean? (laughs)
- Do you like guys that have kids?
Yeah, 'cause I have two kids.
- [Button] Is it a deal breaker that he has kids?
- No, it's not a deal breaker.
(Egypt laughs) (April laughs)
- [Button] So I'm gonna turn red one more time
and if you don't click it. - Are you gonna press it?
- [Button] We'll pay for a second date.
(dramatic music)
You matched!
(both laugh)
Congrats.
(crew applauding) (April laughing)
- I'm really sweaty. (laughs)
- I am as well, I'm nervous.
- Maybe I shouldn't have worn light gray.
- You're wearing long sleeves?
You tripping.
Are we able to switch IG's? - I gave them my stuff so.
- [Button] Get outta here.
Do that somewhere else. - Oh, I'm sorry.
(producers mumbling)
- We're good? Oh, damn. - Bye, I'm sorry!
