- It's kind of lonely sitting in the bed all by myself.
I mean normally my wife is right there.
It's not the same without her.
This week my wife and I are going to live
like we're single.
- You drink a lot more wine.
I'll be out of town.
- And I'm staying home.
I'm not replacing the decorative pillows.
- I was single when we met.
Couldn't possibly have changed that much.
- I'm at the airport. It's snowy and rainy
and that reflects our current mood.
- Personally, I love being single.
It gives you freedom to do whatever you want,
whenever you want.
- I'm hoping we can incorporate
what makes us unique as single people
into the context of our marriage.
- I'm just gonna be like a caricature of myself.
- Rediscover who you were before
you were defined by your relationship.
- That's right.
- [Zach] And in doing so, I think you two
can come back together stronger than before.
- Wow, alright.
- I don't want to leave.
- I don't want him to leave.
- Bye! And now to face TSA.
Here we go!
Feels weird.
I'm gonna put my wedding ring,
right next to this super cute picture of us
that's right next to this other super cute picture of us.
I already can't wait for us to get back together.
One of the things that I don't like to do
is eating by myself.
- [Zach] You eat when you're hungry.
You're not scheduling your meals around someone else.
Whatever you want, whenever you want.
- I'm eating popcorn for dinner.
- Ah, fridge full of beer.
- Shh!
- Already living the dream.
- Popcorn! I definitely enjoyed
the first couple of days because I could
kind of do whatever I wanted.
You cook?
- When you're single and you cook, you (bleep) up
the proportion size.
- Ah it's hot. Coffee for one, but I'm drinking for two.
- If you want to sleep till 11,
if your body wants to sleep till 11,
you're sleeping till 11.
- My wife and I normally go to the gym
in the mornings, but I slept in and didn't go.
- [Ariel] I don't have to make the bed
because I'm on vacation.
- Any of your old vices that went out the window,
those are all fair game now.
Go to bed when you feel like it.
- It's really hard for me to go to sleep
when Ned's not there. I've been avoiding going to bed
because Ned's not here.
- I really don't like being alone.
I'm getting a little spooked being in the house
all by myself. Do you hear that?
- I've just been playing on Pinterest.
- Oh god, there it is.
At least I can set the thermostat to whatever I want.
- Do you find that you end up working more?
- Absolutely.
- It's almost 11 o'clock. I didn't have to call Ariel
and let her know where I was, I could just work.
- She doesn't exist in his world right now.
- Here I am skiing without Ned. Woo!
- I go to drive everyone home
only to find out that my key's not working
and then the alarm starts going off.
These two boners are left with me.
So we need to have the tow truck come
and take the car.
- [Voiceover] Yes, you want to get it away from where it is.
- [Ariel] Woo hoo!
It's a little sad, but it's a beautiful day.
- [Ned] Wow, look at this.
- Hey!
- [Ned] Bye! It was harder to deal with this experience
being single because I didn't have
the support of a partner.
I did have the support of my friends.
As long as you have a good support network
then I think you can face any of life's obstacles.
What about a guy's night or a girl's night?
Out with the boys!
- To me that's just a night.
- It's not like this special,
once every month type of thing?
- No.
- Friday night as a single guy.
I'm hanging with my main man Zac.
- I'm here with my gorgeous sister.
- We'll see if there's someone that looks like worth
talking to, we will talk to them.
- Oh no, what?!
- We're drinking wine and playing with a puppy!
(squeaking)
- Everyone here, this guy's dick is huge.
- [Voiceover] Hi!
- Even though being single's not for me
it was pretty fun to go out with Zac.
- [Ariel] If there's anyone else I'd rather be with,
it's my family.
- Apparently we closed the bar down.
So, should Zac have hooked up with that girl or not?
Oh, damn!
Ugh, I'm so hungover.
- Figure out your weekend plans,
because otherwise you're gonna be totally alone.
- I've got four hours to kill before I have to
pick Ariel up from the airport.
I don't know what I'm gonna do today.
Drinking out of my Britney cup.
No pants, no problem.
I'm going for a walk right now.
Going deep, get it! Touchdown!
I made a fire. It's time to pick my wife up
from the airport which means, ah!
Feels back to normal.
I'm a little early so I actually parked the car
and I'm gonna surprise her by just being
right next to the gate when you walk out.
I've always wanted to get surprised
by someone at the gate.
I see her, I see her.
This is very exciting, it's very exciting.
Hi!
Yes! Best day ever.
I'm very happy that we're back together now.
- I am too. (laughter)
- It feels so good.
Even in a marriage, we're still two unique people
and sometimes we both do our own thing.
That's okay.
- You're my best friend.
(electronic beats)
- Popcorn.
