- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Oh wait, don't eat it, don't eat it,
don't eat it, don't eat it, don't eat it!
(upbeat music) (dog barks)
Hi, my name is Aoi,
and today I will be selecting a date based off their pet.
I moved out to the U.S. when I was four
and I've been here ever since.
A year after I emigrated here I got a dog.
Her name is Berry.
I've had Berry for about 20 years now,
and so at this point she's just family.
She's not even a pet.
I think pets and their caretakers kind of go hand in hand.
Like they feed off the energies of each other.
The more energy a pet has, for example,
I would assume their caretakers, like,
have just as much energy.
All right, I am ready to meet the pets.
(upbeat music)
Oh, it's bunnies!
Oh, cool.
Hi. (laughs)
- Hi, I'm Vi, and this is Toni and this is Braxton,
my pet rabbits.
I've had Toni for five years now
and then he just fell in love with Braxton in June
so I've had her for two months now.
Rabbits are actually the most misunderstood pets
since they don't bark or meow.
You always have to be paying attention
to their body language.
I think the rabbits kind of represent me
with both of their personalities.
When Toni first met Braxton, he was so shy and freaking out,
and then she was just all over him.
And I think I'm a little bit of both
because at first I can be kind of shy
but then when I open up I'm like, "That's my man."
These bunnies are my number one.
So when I'm looking for someone to date
I'm making sure that they don't have a hay allergy
and that they're treating them as well as I am.
- I don't know what to do with like, bunnies.
- I hope he's not scared.
- Are bunnies like this big, usually?
- Everyone always says that.
Everyone's always surprised how big bunnies are.
- (laughs) Yo, this one has red eyes.
That's crazy.
- (laughs) That is not how you pick up a bunny.
- "Hi, I'm Toni.
"And this is my bun-wife, Braxton.
"As you can tell from our names, we're big music lovers.
"Our favorite activities are going on walks to the beach
"and cuddling while watching TV."
Whoa!
- Wow, Toni seems to like him.
He doesn't always like guys.
- "I was in my mom's life for five years
"until one day she realized I needed to go
"from bachelor to hus-bun.
"And Braxton and I have been inseparable ever since.
"We hope our mom will find love
"as true as ours."
You know, like, those types of people that are like,
really into Harry Potter?
I feel like that's the type of person
that would have rabbits.
- Harry Potter's all right.
I like watching the movies. (laughs)
- So apparently I can give these bunnies bananas.
I'll give that a shot.
Want a banana?
Come here.
Okay.
All right.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Want a banana? Yo!
- Oh, he's straight munching.
Toni loves treats.
That's like his favorite thing.
You want a banana?
No?
They're all gone now, so I don't know what's gonna. (laughs)
- They would be totally freaked out if they didn't like him,
so they're just excited.
It's a good sign, actually.
Braxton. (laughs)
Toni. Where'd you go?
I'm gonna go look around.
All right. No, no, come back.
- (laughs) Oh no. They're too excited.
- Toni and Braxton are very independent.
I feel like whoever is the owner
is probably really independent and stuff like that.
- He said that I'm probably really independent
because they're independent, which I like.
- Well, it was great meeting you guys.
It's my first experience like, petting bunnies.
Wow. You are fluffy.
Like you've got some gnarly waves.
- Hi, I'm Carolina and this is my baby Leo.
I've had him for nine months.
So Leo is a little crazy, but he's a good time.
He is always stealing my stuff.
He's always getting into trouble.
I think it's just, you know, growing pains.
I think if the bachelor meets Leo he might think I'm insane
because he is nonstop, just energy 24 seven.
But that's not too far from who I am, so.
I feel 100% confident putting my love life
into his little paws.
I think my dog is a great reflection of me,
so if anyone picks him
then I would be flattered to go on this date.
- Hi.
Kind of energetic.
- I don't think he's as excited to meet Leo
as I would have anticipated.
- "Hi, I'm Leo.
"I may seem very sweet,
"but my real intention is to steal your socks
"and your heart.
"I love a good tug of war
"and of course I'm the life of the party
"wherever I go like my mom.
"I require lots of attention,
"but I promise, at least with us it's never boring."
Very fluffy.
It doesn't jump on me,
so that's kinda cool in a way.
- Yeah, Leo's being surprisingly chill around him.
- Has a mind of its own, just doing its own thing now.
Kind of got bored of me, so.
- Yeah, Leo's not interested.
- Does your mom have hair like you?
You don't know? Okay.
- I wish my hair was like Leo's.
- Sit. Leo, sit.
Okay.
- He does not care. He knows how to sit.
- Wow, she's like very calm.
- He is so chill. I don't get it.
- He looks very well-groomed.
I mean, you have to be well-groomed in order to keep this,
like, cool wave thing going on.
He's very friendly,
so I'm assuming the mom is very friendly as well.
- Yeah. That I am.
- Like I would see the owner being more of like,
going out on hikes a lot, very active.
- I don't go hiking too often.
I have a bad knee.
- Wow. You're adorable.
He's biting his tail.
- So now they're starting to bond a little.
- I think we made a good connection though.
I don't know if he necessarily likes me,
but I kind of like him.
He's cool.
No, you don't like this? Okay.
He's a very cool dog.
I like him a lot.
- I'm not as cool as Leo, for sure.
- Leo, it was nice meeting you.
Bye!
So I met three different animals today
of two different owners.
On one corner we had Toni and Braxton, the two bunnies.
One didn't really like me that much,
but the other one kept eating the banana, Toni.
Toni was cool.
- Hey I can teach him a little bit
about how to interact with rabbits.
In the other corner there was Leo, the dog.
He was mellow but had a little bit of like spunk to him.
- Cool dog indeed.
- I assume the Toni Braxton caretaker is really into books.
Leo's owner is probably, I'm assuming,
the more energetic one out of the two.
Okay.
I've made my decision.
The pet owner that I will be meeting with is...
- Oh my God, come on, tell me!
- (exhales) Okay.
- I'll go with,
I'll go with Leo.
Because of, you know, the hair,
the overall like, chilled out vibe,
but also has like, a little bit of, like, energy to him.
I'm excited to meet Leo's owner
and see if my theory checks out.
- I'm excited to meet the bachelor.
- Whoever I date has to love my bunnies,
and since he doesn't it's not meant to be.
- [Carolina] Hello.
- Hi. - Hi.
I'm Carolina, nice to meet you.
- Aoi, nice to meet you.
- I know I'm not as cute as my dog,
but I hope I'm not too disappointing.
- Leo was cool.
- The coolest.
- Yeah, like a very chilled out dog.
- But he's not chill.
- But he was chill. - But I think he was
just matching your energy.
- Oh.
If we go on a date,
that means like, he's gonna be, like, even more energetic?
- Probably.
I don't know if we can keep up.
- (laughs) We'll see about that.
So do you wanna go on a date?
- I guess. (laughs) Yeah, I'll do it.
- We are done with the first date.
- How would you say it went?
- It went pretty well.
I think my theory about the dogs
and their owners kinda works.
- I think, yeah. - Yeah.
- I think you got my energy right.
I don't think you read Leo.
- We'll see what happens.
