I feel like I'm owed an apology and an explanation
to why I'm going through this alone.
As far as your commitment to the process alone?
Yeah.
You know, I think the best I can do
is continue to get to know you and value this friendship.
OK.
We're not friends.
We are married.
I'm still in this.
And I haven't backed out.
I've questioned myself.
I didn't come into this thinking,
if I don't get the girl I'm attracted to immediately,
screw it.
But you have to have a friendship as a foundation,
though, right?
You have to start somewhere, right?
Correct.
So that's all I'm saying is that.
I certainly-- it is important to me
at this point to at least value that, for sure.
Seems like he tries harder when your friends are around.
Like, he's so pleasant and so nice when we're all there.
Be open to it, but it's like--
Yeah, be cautious.
Because you obviously-- you can't trust him.
Everything that he's given you since then, since you've met,
I feel like is not something that
is a foundation for a trusting relationship,
any type of relationship.
He can say all the things and say pretty words, but like--
Yeah, he needs to do.
Actions.
Yeah.
Actions to follow through is how you can at least
try to start building that.
Speaking of actions, I kind of invited him over.
I said that I'm going to be open and committed,
so if he's going to make an effort,
I'm not going to turn away from that.
Let's see what happens--
[doorbell]
Someone's here.
Do you want me to get it?
OK.
Coming.
[gasps] Hi.
[gasps] Puppy.
OK, I probably shouldn't get all up in your grill
if you're nervous here.
Oh, my god.
Puppy.
Go ahead and say hey.
Hi.
I appreciate my friends' concerns.
But right now, I'm happy.
I'm excited.
I can't believe that Zach came over.
So it gives me hope that maybe he is serious about making more
of an effort in our marriage.
If he can continue showing me this kind of effort,
that's what I've been wanting all along.
And I'm just--
I'm so ready for it.
What'd you bring?
Some good wine.
I know you like the box wine, though, so I got you a box.
Cool.
I'll have some of that, too. - Well--
Yeah, if there's some left.
Or do you want-- do you want this?
I brought that over because I'm going to have to drink
it and come back and finish it.
So then it's like, you know, setting reasons to come back.
That's true.
More obvious reasons to come back.
Did you guys put the box wine in the refrigerator?
No.
We don't do that.
Did you guys finish it?
The box?
No, it's around here somewhere.
Anyone else need a top off?
Carlo?
Yeah, a little bit.
OK.
We hold it.
Oh, just hold it-- yeah, no problem.
Good?
Really?
Yeah, really.
Like, yeah, I would like a whole glass of wine, please.
I'll have some more.
Appreciate it.
Zach is showing her some hope.
Doesn't change the fact that you're putting in like,
the bare minimum effort.
Instead, you want to come and show up and be like, look,
I'm here.
I'm a good person.
You're not in this alone.
So I still think that portion's still kind of [bleep]..
How do you feel about the space?
I like the apartment.
I live close by.
How close do you live?
10 minutes closer to the city.
Yeah.
This is a sweet location.
I'm digging it.
So you like the space.
You think this is nice.
What are your reservations about moving in here?
I guess--
Guys, I-- OK, I got to tell my friends that I love
how much you care about me.
I appreciate that you're coming over and having wine.
I don't want this to be grilling Zach.
I just-- my only question is, are you still in this?
Like--
Yes.
--are you still willing to get to know
Mindy and actually uphold the vows that you guys shared?
He's here right now, you know.
Yeah, and that's showing us yes.
But I don't want to take it in the wrong way.
Sure.
I genuinely want to be here.
And I feel good about momentum, you know.
And it's honest.
Well, we're happy that you're here.
We really are.
Like, we're super stoked to have you here, but also Mills.
Yeah.
Definitely.
Because he's cool.
