{\an8}[Kwame] What's up?
3
00:00:25,068 --> 00:00:28,112
{\an8}I was very, very excited to marry you.
4
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,948
{\an8}- Mm-hmm.
- [Chelsea] But last night...
5
00:00:30,948 --> 00:00:33,534
{\an8}You saying how it's important
6
00:00:33,534 --> 00:00:35,912
{\an8}that I don't take your name
7
00:00:36,954 --> 00:00:40,541
{\an8}until you're able to speak
to your mother about it,
8
00:00:41,042 --> 00:00:44,253
and, you know, make sure that she
9
00:00:45,254 --> 00:00:46,255
has a say
10
00:00:47,381 --> 00:00:50,343
in our marriage...
11
00:00:52,470 --> 00:00:55,389
I respect and understand
the situation with your mom,
12
00:00:55,389 --> 00:00:58,017
but we've been side by side
the whole time.
13
00:00:58,518 --> 00:01:01,979
And that may ultimately
lead to us saying yes,
14
00:01:01,979 --> 00:01:05,108
getting married,
without your mom's blessing.
15
00:01:06,317 --> 00:01:10,613
I feel like it's gonna be tough for me
to just look at my mom and be like,
16
00:01:10,613 --> 00:01:14,075
"You've cared for me
and loved me for 32 years,
17
00:01:14,075 --> 00:01:17,453
and I'm just throwing your opinion away."
18
00:01:17,453 --> 00:01:18,496
That's not fair.
19
00:01:19,497 --> 00:01:21,374
I know it's a tough scenario to be in.
20
00:01:21,374 --> 00:01:24,794
To be like, "Hey, I feel like I'm all-in
to wanna be with somebody,
21
00:01:24,794 --> 00:01:26,671
and they're not all-in
to wanna be with me."
22
00:01:27,964 --> 00:01:29,298
And it's not the case.
23
00:01:30,925 --> 00:01:34,637
Last night you were like,
you had this, um, like, large,
24
00:01:34,637 --> 00:01:36,889
kind of, like, looming idea
25
00:01:36,889 --> 00:01:39,517
that, like, our marriage
and our next year and all,
26
00:01:39,517 --> 00:01:42,728
it's gonna be really,
like, hard and laborious
27
00:01:42,728 --> 00:01:43,855
and, like, tough.
28
00:01:44,522 --> 00:01:46,691
Um, which there will be tough moments.
29
00:01:48,151 --> 00:01:49,735
Of course, right?
30
00:01:49,735 --> 00:01:52,613
I think I see, like,
more of a wholesome picture.
31
00:01:52,613 --> 00:01:56,409
And want you to see, like, the joy.
32
00:01:56,409 --> 00:01:58,452
We haven't even had,
like, the best moments
33
00:01:58,452 --> 00:02:00,371
and days of our lives together.
34
00:02:03,875 --> 00:02:04,709
[Kwame] Yeah.
35
00:02:06,002 --> 00:02:08,921
I see it as much more
of a positive journey.
36
00:02:08,921 --> 00:02:12,091
It's not that it's gonna be a hard year.
In the grand scheme of our relationship,
37
00:02:12,091 --> 00:02:13,843
it is going to be one
of the toughest years.
38
00:02:13,843 --> 00:02:15,178
We don't really know that, babe.
39
00:02:15,178 --> 00:02:18,014
I'm hoping that we start off amazing,
40
00:02:18,014 --> 00:02:20,516
and it just gets better,
but there's gonna be hard years.
41
00:02:20,516 --> 00:02:22,560
I don't think we can predict right now...
42
00:02:25,021 --> 00:02:27,231
- Yeah.
- ...what year is gonna be our hardest year.
43
00:02:27,231 --> 00:02:29,525
Or, like, you know, we just don't know.
44
00:02:29,525 --> 00:02:31,903
I know that. It's not a prediction.
45
00:02:31,903 --> 00:02:34,322
I don't know, like I said,
maybe I'm overthinking everything,
46
00:02:34,322 --> 00:02:37,033
but sometimes-- sometimes, occasionally,
47
00:02:37,033 --> 00:02:39,452
it helps to overthink. Sometimes.
48
00:02:40,912 --> 00:02:43,164
This is-- It's-- It's a big step for me.
49
00:02:44,415 --> 00:02:48,252
My dad doesn't even know,
and my mom doesn't even wanna know.
50
00:02:48,252 --> 00:02:52,423
I think we will need support
of our family in our marriage, 100%.
51
00:02:54,091 --> 00:02:54,926
Yeah.
52
00:02:54,926 --> 00:02:57,845
But falling in love with you in the pods
was one of the most sacred,
53
00:02:57,845 --> 00:02:59,889
beautiful things I ever got to do.
54
00:02:59,889 --> 00:03:02,058
Because my family has thoughts.
55
00:03:02,058 --> 00:03:03,559
- Opinions, right?
- Yeah.
56
00:03:04,936 --> 00:03:07,980
I fell in love with you
and picked you for me.
57
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:10,983
And it's truly the first time
in my entire life
58
00:03:10,983 --> 00:03:12,652
I can wholeheartedly say that.
59
00:03:16,197 --> 00:03:18,407
And for that reason, I'm so at peace.
60
00:03:18,991 --> 00:03:21,577
- I don't care what they think.
- [Kwame] Listen.
61
00:03:23,329 --> 00:03:26,123
When we get up to that altar,
it comes down to...
62
00:03:27,917 --> 00:03:33,506
It comes down to the decision
that will make us both happiest.
63
00:03:33,506 --> 00:03:36,259
So, I just wanna make sure
that we're both happy going into it.
64
00:03:40,346 --> 00:03:41,264
Of course. [chuckles]
65
00:03:42,765 --> 00:03:45,351
- Why wouldn't we be happy?
- Don't do that. Stop that.
66
00:03:46,227 --> 00:03:49,355
Don't do that. I'm just saying.
Look, we're making a decision.
67
00:03:49,355 --> 00:03:50,314
It's a big decision.
68
00:03:50,314 --> 00:03:54,360
We're just considering
all the factors of what goes into that.
69
00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:56,195
- Of course.
- Okay.
70
00:03:56,195 --> 00:03:59,240
But if you didn't make me the happiest
I've felt in my entire fucking life...
71
00:04:00,616 --> 00:04:03,035
- I would not be here marrying you.
- Okay.
72
00:04:09,834 --> 00:04:11,419
I'm here for you. You know that, right?
73
00:04:11,419 --> 00:04:13,296
[chuckles] I know. I know.

Obviously, a couple weeks ago,
like, we were not together, you know.
89

- Yeah.
- Like, how strong our connection is.
100
00:05:33,542 --> 00:05:36,337
Maybe you shouldn't have told my dad
how many days it was. [chuckles]

- Makes us seem, like, really crazy.

- Like, literally crazy.
- Yeah, but I mean, we know.
103
00:05:43,594 --> 00:05:45,096
We know what we feel is real,
104
00:05:45,096 --> 00:05:48,766
and every day we spend together,
I feel like we're growing closer,
105
00:05:48,766 --> 00:05:50,935
and the connection's getting stronger.
106
00:05:50,935 --> 00:05:51,894
[Bliss] Yeah, I think...
107
00:05:51,894 --> 00:05:54,647
- But the commitment is the scary part.
- Wait. "But" negates.
108
00:05:54,647 --> 00:05:57,900
"But" negates everything
you just said. So, say "and."
109
00:05:57,900 --> 00:05:59,151

110
00:06:00,986 --> 00:06:02,988
- And...
- Unless you mean "but."
111
00:06:02,988 --> 00:06:05,699
- Unless you mean to negate it.
- No, I don't to mean to negate it.
112
00:06:06,283 --> 00:06:09,120
- But... "But..." I can't help it.
- [laughs]
113
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,331
I know. It's fine.
It's okay. You can say "but."
114
00:06:12,331 --> 00:06:15,626
I'll know that you mean that you're
not negating everything you said by it.
115
00:06:15,626 --> 00:06:17,420
I know how you feel about me.
116

- Yeah.

- No, I do.

But yeah, I mean it's just...
121

- It's a big-- It's a big-- Yeah.
- It's, like, forever.

That's a long time. [laughs]
123
00:06:36,021 --> 00:06:38,065
- [Zack] You're right, Bliss.
- Yeah, I know.
124
00:06:38,065 --> 00:06:40,943
The reality is, at some point,
we're gonna have to take a leap of faith
125
00:06:40,943 --> 00:06:42,027
if we're gonna do this.
126
00:06:42,611 --> 00:06:46,282
And in my decision-making, like,
if I don't just commit,
127
00:06:46,282 --> 00:06:47,867
then I feel like
128
00:06:49,577 --> 00:06:51,996
I'll never make a decision,
if you get what I mean.
129
00:06:51,996 --> 00:06:55,541
I do, but that concerns me a little bit.
You were engaged to someone else.
130
00:06:55,541 --> 00:06:58,335
Then we got engaged, and you're like,
"Okay, I'm making this decision."
131
00:06:58,335 --> 00:07:00,421
-"I'm just gonna go with it."
- You should know.
132
00:07:00,421 --> 00:07:02,381
Because I said I'm engaged to you,
133
00:07:02,381 --> 00:07:04,967
that I'm committed to you.
134
00:07:04,967 --> 00:07:05,968
- No, I know.
- Right.
135
00:07:05,968 --> 00:07:07,636
- But, like, I could--
- But it's still--
136
00:07:07,636 --> 00:07:10,097
I could be questioning that,
but, like, I'm not.
137
00:07:11,474 --> 00:07:14,810
You know, like,
I've been 100% honest with you.
138
00:07:15,311 --> 00:07:18,564
- Yeah, I know that.
- And I'm not looking at anyone else.
139
00:07:18,564 --> 00:07:20,691
[Bliss] I'm not concerned
about you looking at anyone.
140
00:07:20,691 --> 00:07:24,361
It's more concerning about, "I'm making
this decision to be engaged to Bliss."
141
00:07:24,361 --> 00:07:26,530
"And I'm gonna marry her
'cause I made this decision."
142
00:07:26,530 --> 00:07:29,408
- Mm-hmm. Right.
- I want it to feel fully right to you.
143
00:07:29,408 --> 00:07:31,410
'Cause you owe that to yourself and to me.
144
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,832
I mean, you can just know that once
I make a decision, I'm committed to it.
145
00:07:36,832 --> 00:07:40,085
I don't want someone to be just committed
to me because they made a decision to.
146
00:07:40,085 --> 00:07:42,713
But, well,
that's exactly what marriage is.

[laughing]
167
00:08:34,223 --> 00:08:37,268
{\an8}- I knew it. I knew it.
- [Tiffany] I love it. I love it.
168
00:08:37,268 --> 00:08:41,355
[Herbert] So, what do you really think
of this young man here sitting beside you?
169
00:08:41,939 --> 00:08:43,607
[Tiffany] I think he's amazing.
170
00:08:43,607 --> 00:08:47,486
{\an8}I guess for me, like, I'm 36 years old.
171
00:08:47,486 --> 00:08:49,822
{\an8}So I've had the opportunity to date.
172
00:08:49,822 --> 00:08:52,866
I've had the opportunity
to see, you know, guys out there.
173
00:08:52,866 --> 00:08:55,202
- What would be best for me?
- [Herbert] Right.
174
00:08:55,202 --> 00:08:58,539
- And he has a quiet confidence about him.
- [Herbert] Yeah, right.
175
00:08:58,539 --> 00:09:01,250
I'll say that.
Not arrogance, but confidence.
176
00:09:01,250 --> 00:09:05,963
And I love a man
that is just self-assured.
177
00:09:05,963 --> 00:09:09,466
So, he just became
very captivating, didn't he?
178
00:09:09,466 --> 00:09:11,302
- Yeah, he did.
- [Herbert laughing]
179
00:09:11,302 --> 00:09:14,305
Like, I'm normally a pretty outgoing,
180
00:09:14,305 --> 00:09:15,556
like, just forward person.
181
00:09:15,556 --> 00:09:18,225
I just say, like,
what's, you know, on my heart.
182
00:09:18,225 --> 00:09:23,772
And I don't think he ever judged me
or he never told me to, you know,
183
00:09:23,772 --> 00:09:27,109
"Tiff, like, tone it down."
He would sit there, and he would listen.
184
00:09:27,109 --> 00:09:29,320
And that's something
that means a lot to me,
185
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,363
because I need somebody that grounds me.
186
00:09:31,363 --> 00:09:33,490
- Right, right.
- Sometimes my head is in the clouds.
187
00:09:33,490 --> 00:09:38,829
I'm a little hyper and everything.
But I think he balances, uh, me out.
188
00:09:38,829 --> 00:09:43,292
- Right. Mm-hmm.
- So, that's why I kept going back to him.
189
00:09:43,292 --> 00:09:45,586
- Okay.
- [Angus] How was your childhood?
190
00:09:45,586 --> 00:09:47,379
You kind of, like, middle class?
191
00:09:47,379 --> 00:09:51,008
- Upper middle? Low, like, growing up?
- [sighs] I mean...
192
00:09:51,008 --> 00:09:54,386
My parents definitely
didn't grow up in, like...
193
00:09:54,386 --> 00:09:57,640
Yeah, right.
They weren't wealthy people, right?
194
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,851
- [Tiffany] No, like, not at all.
- [laughs] Just... Yeah.
195
00:10:00,851 --> 00:10:07,691
And they, like, worked hard to make sure
that we had a better life.
196
00:10:07,691 --> 00:10:10,319
Yeah, I'll be looking forward
to meeting them really,
197
00:10:10,319 --> 00:10:12,529
because, uh, that's key.
198
00:10:12,529 --> 00:10:16,909
She didn't shy away from ever telling me
how she felt about me.
199
00:10:17,618 --> 00:10:20,329
And, you know, our family,
200
00:10:20,329 --> 00:10:24,375
we're not the best
at telling each other how we feel.
201
00:10:24,375 --> 00:10:27,127
- You know, we barely hug, but we dap up.
- [laughing]
202
00:10:27,127 --> 00:10:28,629
- [laughing]
- [Angus] We dap up.
203
00:10:28,629 --> 00:10:30,339
Yeah, it's amazing.
204
00:10:30,339 --> 00:10:33,133
We were close-knit in a certain way,
205
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:35,511
but we didn't express it,
you know, with the words.
206
00:10:35,511 --> 00:10:36,428
Yeah.
207
00:10:36,428 --> 00:10:37,930
[Herbert] Just listening to him talk
208
00:10:37,930 --> 00:10:40,015
and now listening here
to what you're saying,
209
00:10:40,015 --> 00:10:42,017
the way you discuss things,
210
00:10:42,017 --> 00:10:45,187
I think you guys made a good connection,
you know.
211
00:10:45,771 --> 00:10:48,399
- I think so.
- I think so too. [laughs]
212
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:51,402
[Herbert] What Brett said to me
when I talked to him, he said,
213
00:10:52,236 --> 00:10:54,488
"Wow, she's very supportive
214
00:10:54,488 --> 00:10:56,865
and, uh, understanding."
215
00:10:56,865 --> 00:11:00,244
I said, "Wow.
That's what we need as menfolk."
216
00:11:00,244 --> 00:11:02,955
Somebody who is
supportive and understanding."
217
00:11:02,955 --> 00:11:06,750
And apparently, you guys click
not based upon appearances, you know.
218
00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:08,419
It couldn't have been about appear--
219
00:11:08,419 --> 00:11:10,587
A lot of guys
get caught up in appearances.
220
00:11:10,587 --> 00:11:12,506
And once that's gone, nothing is left.
221
00:11:12,506 --> 00:11:14,049
- You're left dry.
- [Tiffany] Exactly.
222
00:11:14,049 --> 00:11:17,886
Looks like you guys
built something upon just the inner self.
223
00:11:17,886 --> 00:11:20,180
- [Tiffany] Yeah.
- What your inner self was.
224
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:21,265
And I think that's good.
225
00:11:21,265 --> 00:11:24,852
- Yeah.
- And so, that's why I support this.
226
00:11:24,852 --> 00:11:30,149
Because I know it wasn't tradition
and you didn't see each other for a while.
227
00:11:30,149 --> 00:11:33,610
All you had to go on
was what was expressed from within.
228
00:11:33,610 --> 00:11:36,029
And that's what builds
a good relationship.
229
00:11:36,029 --> 00:11:37,406
I really believe that.
230
00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:39,992
I tell you, Tiffany, I'm impressed.
231
00:11:39,992 --> 00:11:41,785
I'm impressed with his choice.
232
00:11:41,785 --> 00:11:45,497
And I'm impressed with you,
and I pray for you guys.
233
00:11:45,497 --> 00:11:46,665
Thank you.
234
00:11:46,665 --> 00:11:48,417
There's gonna come
some moments in your life
235
00:11:48,417 --> 00:11:50,711
that you're gonna
have to be put to the test.
236
00:11:50,711 --> 00:11:53,839
Every relationship
at some point in time is put to the test.
237
00:11:53,839 --> 00:11:54,757
[Tiffany] Mm-hmm.
238
00:11:54,757 --> 00:11:57,509
[Herbert] Don't worry about that.
As long as you got yourself focused
239
00:11:57,509 --> 00:12:00,554
and you know what you want,
and you guys are in unison,
240
00:12:01,054 --> 00:12:04,057
so far as your focus,
nobody can separate that.
241
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:05,350
Nobody can break that up.
242
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:08,103
I've always believed in that, you know.
243
00:12:08,103 --> 00:12:10,355
- Oh! Sorry.
- [Herbert] You know? So...
244
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:12,399
- [Tiffany] Oh! Yeah.
- I'm impressed, so...
245
00:12:13,525 --> 00:12:16,069
- Yeah.
- Um, do you approve of my hairdo?
246
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:17,988
- Huh?
- [Angus] Do you approve of my hairdo?
247
00:12:18,697 --> 00:12:19,823
[laughing]
248
00:12:19,823 --> 00:12:21,909
- I want people to be themselves.
- [Angus] Thank you.
249
00:12:21,909 --> 00:12:23,702
I really like you now. I appreciate it.
250
00:12:23,702 --> 00:12:26,497

{\an8}Well, I'm packing up,
and Micah's gonna be staying here.

It's gonna be the last day that
we see each other until the wedding.

00:13:02,574 --> 00:13:05,452
And we're gonna do
our bachelor parties as well.
267
00:13:06,036 --> 00:13:08,914
- Oh, my God.
- I feel like I have way more clothes now.
268
00:13:08,914 --> 00:13:12,042
[Micah laughs] I'm rubbing off on you.
Now you have all this stuff.
269
00:13:12,042 --> 00:13:14,002
[Paul] Yeah, I know.
What's happened to me?

00:13:14,002 --> 00:13:16,213
- Who am I? I don't even recognize myself.
- [laughs]
271
00:13:16,213 --> 00:13:18,841
[Paul] You're gonna need a tow truck.
A dump truck.
272
00:13:18,841 --> 00:13:20,634
- [laughs] A U-Haul?
- You know?
273
00:13:20,634 --> 00:13:22,678
Yeah, an entire U-Haul.
274
00:13:22,678 --> 00:13:25,597
What is this,
and how did it even get into this room?
275
00:13:25,597 --> 00:13:27,224
[both laughing]
276
00:13:27,224 --> 00:13:29,268
Where did this come from?
277
00:13:29,268 --> 00:13:31,728
I'm so happy you've not tried
to put this on.
278
00:13:31,728 --> 00:13:33,814
Oh, God, my other least favorite shirt.
279
00:13:34,439 --> 00:13:36,358
- [laughs]
- My tank top?
280
00:13:36,358 --> 00:13:38,610
"My tank top."
It's so funny when you say that.
281
00:13:38,610 --> 00:13:40,445
It's like, "My green shirt?"
"My tank top?"
282
00:13:40,445 --> 00:13:43,115
'Cause there's just one of everything.
- [laughing]
283
00:13:43,115 --> 00:13:45,868
[Micah] "You mean my underwear?" "Yeah."

- [Paul] "My sock? You only have one sock?"
- [laughing]
285
00:13:49,913 --> 00:13:52,583
I have to alternate feet during the day.
Just swap 'em.

I feel like it's gonna be really fun.

00:14:00,007 --> 00:14:01,675
- Yeah?
- Hopefully. Yeah.
290
00:14:01,675 --> 00:14:04,845
I'm interested how everyone's,
like, doing and have fun together
291
00:14:04,845 --> 00:14:08,599
before everything goes down.
Yeah. [laughs]
292
00:14:08,599 --> 00:14:10,642
Yeah. Can't wait to see you in the dress.
293
00:14:10,642 --> 00:14:13,228
- [Micah] I know. I'm really excited.
- Yeah.
294
00:14:13,228 --> 00:14:15,272
- I feel you're gonna look so handsome.
- Aww.
295
00:14:15,272 --> 00:14:16,440
- I hope so.
- [Micah laughs]
296
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,108
- You hope so?
- Yeah.
297
00:14:19,651 --> 00:14:22,529
- There he goes. The last shoe.
- [Paul] You think he can fit in there?
298

- [Micah laughs] Yeah.
- [chuckles]
299
00:14:24,448 --> 00:14:28,452
Micah and I, we can't go 15 minutes
without being like, "I miss you."
300
00:14:28,452 --> 00:14:31,830
Like, I'm literally in the bathroom.
She's, like, across the room.
301
00:14:31,830 --> 00:14:34,625
Like, you're not supposed to see the bride
before the wedding,
302
00:14:34,625 --> 00:14:38,337
but I think that hopefully we're just
gonna be, like, texting and still talking.
303
00:14:38,337 --> 00:14:40,088
But I think we're gonna miss each other.
304
00:14:41,924 --> 00:14:43,634
- Sad.
- Yeah.
305
00:14:43,634 --> 00:14:45,427
Don't have too much fun at your party.
306
00:14:45,427 --> 00:14:49,139
Yeah, I was gonna say, "Keep the ones
in your pocket. No strippers."
307
00:14:49,139 --> 00:14:50,349
- [laughing]
- [Paul] Okay.
308
00:14:50,349 --> 00:14:54,394
- You're like, "I counted. It was 13 ones."
- I already looked in your big-ass wallet.
309
00:14:54,394 --> 00:14:55,896
"You better have 13."

[laughing]
311
00:14:56,939 --> 00:14:58,649
Better have 13 ones
when you get back here.

00:14:58,649 --> 00:14:59,691
- [chuckles] Yeah.
- Yeah.
313

Well, love you.
314
00:15:01,485 --> 00:15:02,819
Yeah, love you too.

00:15:35,894 --> 00:15:39,731
Look at that! Look at this!
328
00:15:39,731 --> 00:15:41,692
- [chattering]
- [laughing]
329
00:15:42,734 --> 00:15:43,568
[man] Hey, man.
330
00:15:43,568 --> 00:15:45,237
{\an8}- What up?
- Hey, Josh.
331
00:15:45,237 --> 00:15:47,990
{\an8}[Josh] Can't believe it, dude.
Thanks for the call after a year, huh?
332
00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:49,032
[laughs]
333
00:15:49,032 --> 00:15:52,536
{\an8}- What up, baby? How you doing, baby?
- Oh-ho-ho!
334
00:15:52,536 --> 00:15:53,495
{\an8}[laughing]
335
00:15:53,495 --> 00:15:55,497
{\an8}- [Lakayana] How do you feel, bro?
- Amazing.
336
00:15:55,497 --> 00:15:59,251
{\an8}- Been an unforgettable experience.
- This your boy right here.
337
00:15:59,251 --> 00:16:01,545
{\an8}This has been unforgettable experience
on so many levels,
338
00:16:01,545 --> 00:16:02,796
{\an8}but I couldn't be happier.
339
00:16:02,796 --> 00:16:04,047
{\an8}Yeah, glad you guys made it.
340
00:16:04,047 --> 00:16:07,342
{\an8}I know. I saw you walk in, and I was like,
"He's looking good. He's looking sharp."
341
00:16:07,342 --> 00:16:09,386
{\an8}- This is yours.
- What is this? A rum and coke?
342
00:16:09,386 --> 00:16:12,347
{\an8}- Yeah. Wait, your boy here ordered it.
- I ordered rum and coke.
343
00:16:12,347 --> 00:16:15,767
{\an8}- Yeah, I got you all the same thing.
- I don't do brown liquor like that.
344
00:16:15,892 --> 00:16:18,061
{\an8}- No, you got this one.
- Come on, man. No! No, no, no!
345
00:16:18,061 --> 00:16:19,938
This is what Tiffany
gonna take off our hands.
346
00:16:19,938 --> 00:16:21,565
[laughing]
347
00:16:21,565 --> 00:16:25,652
- [Tiffany] Yes!
- [Bliss] Our last night as single ladies!
348
00:16:25,652 --> 00:16:27,112
[women cheer]
349
00:16:27,112 --> 00:16:29,489
{\an8}Yeah!
350
00:16:29,489 --> 00:16:31,700
- Hi, ladies!
- [cheering]
351
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:34,619
{\an8}[Tiffany] Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
352
00:16:34,619 --> 00:16:37,581
{\an8}[laughs] I'm Tiffany.
Nice to meet you. Melanie!
353
00:16:37,581 --> 00:16:41,001
{\an8}If there are strippers tonight,
my fiancé is ten times hotter
354
00:16:41,001 --> 00:16:43,295
{\an8}than every single stripper
that we're gonna get.
355
00:16:43,295 --> 00:16:45,714
{\an8}Wait. You haven't seen
my ring in person. Hi!
356
00:16:45,714 --> 00:16:48,216
{\an8}You haven't seen me
since I've been engaged!
357
00:16:48,216 --> 00:16:52,137
Tonight is my bachelorette party.
It's wild. But it's exciting.
358
00:16:52,137 --> 00:16:53,722
[dance music playing]
359
00:16:53,722 --> 00:16:56,308
[woman] Yes! Girl, you better work it.
360
00:16:56,308 --> 00:16:59,186
- Yes! Yes!
- [cheering]
361
00:16:59,186 --> 00:17:01,646
- I'm actually a real stripper, guys.
- [Tiffany shouts]
362
00:17:01,646 --> 00:17:04,649
{\an8}I'm definitely gonna be extra.
Own who you are.
363
00:17:04,649 --> 00:17:05,984
{\an8}Never dull it down.
364
00:17:05,984 --> 00:17:08,987
[women cheering, shouting]
365
00:17:08,987 --> 00:17:12,616
- [laughs]
- [shouts]
366
00:17:12,616 --> 00:17:14,284
[cheering]
367
00:17:14,910 --> 00:17:18,371
- [woman 2] Let's go!
- [woman 3] Work it!
368
00:17:18,955 --> 00:17:21,875
[burlesque music playing]
369
00:17:25,796 --> 00:17:29,257
♪ You wanna have a good time... ♪
370
00:17:29,257 --> 00:17:31,343
{\an8}Okay, I didn't expect this.
371
00:17:32,260 --> 00:17:35,388
[Kwame laughs] I knew-- Oh! Hey,
what the fuck is going on here? Hold on.
372
00:17:35,388 --> 00:17:38,058
Y'all missing the show.
Y'all missing the show!
373
00:17:38,058 --> 00:17:39,184
[Zack] Yeah, we're good.
374
00:17:39,184 --> 00:17:42,104
We're just gonna hang out over here,
honestly. It's not really our style.
375
00:17:42,104 --> 00:17:45,690
The burlesque dancers,
um, it's just not my thing.
376
00:17:45,690 --> 00:17:48,151
{\an8}I mean, my mother was a stripper.
377
00:17:48,151 --> 00:17:51,279
{\an8}[chuckles] Like,
I don't have anything against it.
378
00:17:51,279 --> 00:17:52,739
{\an8}Uh, I just...
379
00:17:53,698 --> 00:17:55,492
Yeah, I'm not really into it.
380
00:17:56,701 --> 00:17:58,995
- All right. [laughs]
- All right, all right, all right!
381
00:17:58,995 --> 00:18:01,289
I can't look too long.
You know what I'm saying?
382
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,295
This man never met me.
This man never saw my face.
383
00:18:07,921 --> 00:18:11,800
- Yeah. Chelsea's always loud. [laughs]
- He knows me so well!
384
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,386
- [Tiffany] My baby girl.
- [laughing]
385
00:18:14,386 --> 00:18:15,512
{\an8}Kwame and I's love story
386
00:18:15,512 --> 00:18:18,723
{\an8}is like a very, like, beautiful,
like, slow dance.
387
00:18:18,723 --> 00:18:21,143
{\an8}- Does he like Rocky?
- He loves Rocky, you guys.
388
00:18:21,143 --> 00:18:23,186
{\an8}- What was that interaction like?
- They are so cute.
389
00:18:23,186 --> 00:18:24,980
- You guys.
- I'm genuinely curious.
390
00:18:24,980 --> 00:18:27,816
- You guys.
- If he doesn't like your dog...
391
00:18:27,816 --> 00:18:29,985
- That's a dealbreaker. Dealbreaker.
- Right?
392
00:18:29,985 --> 00:18:33,989
It's honestly the healthiest thing
I've ever had. He loves me for me.
393
00:18:33,989 --> 00:18:37,117
He loves me for being extra.
He loves me for who I am.
394
00:18:37,117 --> 00:18:39,369
And I've never had that
in a relationship ever.
395
00:18:39,369 --> 00:18:41,997
- [Ellison] He love his family?
- [Melody] Do you like his family?
396
00:18:41,997 --> 00:18:46,084
[Chelsea] So, I will say, the family
situation is one of our kind of hurdles.
397
00:18:46,084 --> 00:18:48,837
His mom would prefer for him
398
00:18:48,837 --> 00:18:51,214
to, you know,
marry a traditionally Ghanaian woman.
399
00:18:51,798 --> 00:18:53,508
- Have you met her?
- No.
400
00:18:54,551 --> 00:18:57,220
Have you talked to her? At all?
401
00:18:57,220 --> 00:18:59,598
[Chelsea] His mom,
she's not coming to the wedding.
402
00:19:00,390 --> 00:19:02,559
So, it'll be a journey.
403
00:19:03,518 --> 00:19:06,062
I'm not gonna sit here and say,
like, I can change her mind,
404
00:19:06,062 --> 00:19:08,565
but I will say I love her son.
405
00:19:10,192 --> 00:19:13,987
{\an8}Her family is so supportive
of what she's doing.
406
00:19:14,738 --> 00:19:16,865
{\an8}Like, it actually kind of blows my mind.
407
00:19:16,865 --> 00:19:18,825
{\an8}[man] Is that different from your family?
408
00:19:20,327 --> 00:19:22,245
My brother and sister are very supportive.
409
00:19:22,245 --> 00:19:24,497
- [man] Right.
- [Kwame] But my mom is not.
410
00:19:25,582 --> 00:19:27,542
No offense against Chelsea at all.
411
00:19:27,542 --> 00:19:29,711
- It's just the circumstances.
- [man] Yeah, right.
412
00:19:29,711 --> 00:19:32,672
- She gonna be at the wedding?
- My mom's not gonna be at the wedding.
413
00:19:32,672 --> 00:19:35,508
{\an8}- Devastating, man. It's your mom. Yeah.
- Not good.
414
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:37,052
Yeah, you know, it's my mom.
415
00:19:42,140 --> 00:19:43,516
[chuckles]
416
00:19:43,516 --> 00:19:44,851
Don't get emotional, man.
417
00:19:46,186 --> 00:19:49,564
I mean, I think once she meets Chelsea,
like, she'll be in love.
418
00:19:49,564 --> 00:19:50,649
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
419
00:19:50,649 --> 00:19:52,984
[Matt] So you would move in
right here, in Seattle?
420
00:19:52,984 --> 00:19:54,486
- Listen, listen!
- Oh, my God!
421
00:19:54,486 --> 00:19:56,154
- Listen, listen.
- [laughing]
422
00:19:56,154 --> 00:20:01,952
My April to my August
are shirtless jogging months.
423
00:20:02,535 --> 00:20:05,080
- Shirt off. Run. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba.
- [Ezekiel] Soccer, soccer.
424
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,666
- Soccer right after. Okay?
- Not in Seattle. [laughing]
425
00:20:07,666 --> 00:20:08,917
Not in Seattle!
426
00:20:08,917 --> 00:20:10,126
- In your fur coat?
- Yeah.
427
00:20:10,126 --> 00:20:11,044
{\an8}I'll be honest.
428
00:20:11,044 --> 00:20:16,049
{\an8}I know Seattle's gonna hate me for this,
but like, Seattle, you're overpriced.
429
00:20:16,675 --> 00:20:19,302
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you are like...
430
00:20:20,262 --> 00:20:23,974
You are Lamar Odom
with Michael Jordan prices.
431
00:20:23,974 --> 00:20:25,600
You're not that great.
432
00:20:26,268 --> 00:20:28,645
But, you know... [laughs]
433
00:20:28,645 --> 00:20:30,855
...I'm trying to get over that.
434
00:20:30,855 --> 00:20:33,692
So, just to make sure,
you are marrying her, saying yes, right?
435
00:20:33,692 --> 00:20:35,777
[laughing]
436
00:20:37,070 --> 00:20:40,740
[Ezekiel] Bro, 'cause if you don't,
bro, 'cause if you don't, bro,
437
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:42,242
you're missing out.
438
00:20:42,242 --> 00:20:43,952
Oh, man!
439
00:20:44,703 --> 00:20:46,705
{\an8}Like, the signs are there.
440
00:20:47,414 --> 00:20:50,792
{\an8}The signs that she's the right one,
it's there.
441
00:20:50,792 --> 00:20:52,794
{\an8}So, what are the signs?
442
00:20:52,794 --> 00:20:54,462
{\an8}[Zack] We're in the pods together, right?
443
00:20:54,462 --> 00:20:55,672
{\an8}I'm like, "Listen, you know,
444
00:20:55,672 --> 00:20:59,634
I've already figured out what my song
I wanna have for my first dance is.
445
00:20:59,634 --> 00:21:02,012
"I Hope You Dance" by Lee Ann Womack.
446
00:21:02,012 --> 00:21:04,597
She had the same song on her wedding list.
447
00:21:05,932 --> 00:21:08,810
- And that's not a mainstream song.
- That's not a very common song.
448
00:21:08,810 --> 00:21:10,478
'Cause I've never heard of that song.
449
00:21:10,478 --> 00:21:13,398
So then she says she had had a dream
450
00:21:13,398 --> 00:21:17,235
that, like, an owl would come
and bring her peace.
451
00:21:18,194 --> 00:21:19,154
And I go...
452
00:21:19,654 --> 00:21:20,780
Oh.
453
00:21:20,780 --> 00:21:25,368
I'm not making this up. And I'm like,
"This is, uh, this is kind of wild."
454
00:21:25,368 --> 00:21:28,913
- Right.
-"An owl is, like, my favorite animal."
455
00:21:28,913 --> 00:21:30,248
And she's like, "No."
456
00:21:30,749 --> 00:21:35,670
And I'm like, "Yeah, I'm actually wearing
a tie bar with an owl on it currently."
457
00:21:35,670 --> 00:21:36,588
[laughs]
458
00:21:36,588 --> 00:21:38,923
And I am.
I'm actually, like, at that moment.
459
00:21:38,923 --> 00:21:40,675
So, like, there's literal signs
460
00:21:40,675 --> 00:21:43,511
that this is probably
the woman I should get married to.
461
00:21:43,511 --> 00:21:44,471
Yeah.
462
00:21:44,471 --> 00:21:47,432
She is everything
that I have been looking for in a wife.
463
00:21:47,432 --> 00:21:50,810
Dude, I know how particular you are
when you're changing your brand of milk.
464
00:21:50,810 --> 00:21:52,145
- Yeah.
- [Josh laughs]
465
00:21:52,145 --> 00:21:55,607
This dude and I will spend, like,
a week talking about the research
466
00:21:55,607 --> 00:21:57,400
on the new toilet paper brand he picked.
467
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:58,443
[Josh] That is so funny.
468
00:21:58,443 --> 00:22:01,613
I can't even imagine what's going through
his head picking a wife.
469
00:22:03,615 --> 00:22:06,868
{\an8}It's scary to make,
like, a life-long commitment.
470
00:22:06,868 --> 00:22:09,204
{\an8}- It's very scary.
- Yeah.
471
00:22:11,331 --> 00:22:14,084
I think as long as, you know,
you guys both take it seriously.
472
00:22:14,084 --> 00:22:19,464
But it's about, like, making things work
for you and what you guys want.
473
00:22:19,464 --> 00:22:21,633
And if there's communication,
474
00:22:21,633 --> 00:22:24,427
like, I really feel
like you can have that.
475
00:22:24,427 --> 00:22:25,553
- Yeah.
- You know?
476
00:22:25,553 --> 00:22:27,055
We talk so much.
477
00:22:27,055 --> 00:22:29,641
[laughs] Communication is not a problem.
478
00:22:29,641 --> 00:22:32,435
We're both so, like,
data-focused and logic-focused.
479
00:22:32,435 --> 00:22:35,730
There's no data that tells you
it's gonna last forever.
480
00:22:35,730 --> 00:22:38,149
You guys are both very logical people.
481
00:22:38,149 --> 00:22:40,610
I really think that
when it really comes down to it,
482
00:22:40,610 --> 00:22:44,656
it's about, like,
how you feel, like, right now. Yeah.
483
00:22:44,656 --> 00:22:46,282
I hope I wake up in the morning
484
00:22:46,282 --> 00:22:50,495
and, like, know exactly what I want
and feel, and I'm gonna follow that.
485
00:22:50,495 --> 00:22:55,333
Whether it's a yes, whether it's a no,
like, I'm gonna do what feels right.
486
00:22:56,251 --> 00:22:57,961
{\an8}I feel ready for marriage.
487
00:22:57,961 --> 00:23:01,047
{\an8}Do I feel, like, fully ready with Zack?
488
00:23:01,047 --> 00:23:02,882
{\an8}Like, I don't know.
489
00:23:02,882 --> 00:23:05,552
It's hard because of the story
that Zack and I have had.
490
00:23:05,552 --> 00:23:08,179
Not being together
and then being together.
491
00:23:08,179 --> 00:23:11,683
But I love Zack very much.
I've never met anyone like him.
492
00:23:12,559 --> 00:23:14,727
It just feels like he's my person.
493
00:23:14,727 --> 00:23:18,440
I feel it in my soul,
in my body, in my bones.
494
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:23,111
It feels like such the right thing to do,
but I'm giving myself the freedom
495
00:23:23,111 --> 00:23:26,114
to change my mind
if that feels like the right thing to do.
496
00:23:26,114 --> 00:23:27,866
You know what I mean?
497
00:23:27,866 --> 00:23:29,325
This is the thought.
498
00:23:30,076 --> 00:23:31,744
[shouts, laughs]
499
00:23:33,163 --> 00:23:35,331
How many times
you been in love before this?
500
00:23:36,958 --> 00:23:38,751
- None.
- Whoo!
501
00:23:39,794 --> 00:23:42,130
How do you know you in love?
How do you know you in love?
502
00:23:42,130 --> 00:23:45,967
{\an8}So, I find myself genuinely thinking
503
00:23:45,967 --> 00:23:49,053
{\an8}about what makes her happy.
504
00:23:49,554 --> 00:23:51,848
{\an8}I find myself thinking about her...
505
00:23:52,599 --> 00:23:53,850
{\an8}Will she be a great mother?
506
00:23:55,143 --> 00:23:58,313
{\an8}I find myself thinking about
what can I do for her
507
00:23:58,313 --> 00:24:00,231
- [laughs]
- [Lakayana] Wow.
508
00:24:00,231 --> 00:24:03,693
I honestly feel
that we're on the same page.
509
00:24:04,944 --> 00:24:08,948
As far as our commitment,
as far as how we feel about each other,
510
00:24:08,948 --> 00:24:12,327
as far as what we want our marriage to be,
you get to the altar,
511
00:24:12,327 --> 00:24:13,953
it's like, you don't know.
512
00:24:14,954 --> 00:24:17,540
So, what would be the doubt
that she wouldn't say yes?
513
00:24:17,540 --> 00:24:19,167
Is there anything in particular?
514
00:24:19,167 --> 00:24:20,251
I don't--
515
00:24:21,085 --> 00:24:23,338
- This is a big decision for anybody.
- 100%.
516
00:24:23,338 --> 00:24:25,465
[Brett] So, I don't wanna
come across like,
517
00:24:25,465 --> 00:24:27,383
"Oh, yeah, of course she's gonna say yes."
518
00:24:27,967 --> 00:24:28,801
That's healthy.
519
00:24:28,801 --> 00:24:31,179
- I feel that she is.
- That's healthy.
520
00:24:31,179 --> 00:24:34,974
But I don't wanna--
I don't wanna be overconfident here.
521
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:38,853
{\an8}Are you ready? Are you excited?
Are you nervous? Are you... [chuckles]
522
00:24:38,853 --> 00:24:41,856
{\an8}The thing is
I feel like I've met my match.
523
00:24:41,856 --> 00:24:44,984
{\an8}- I've met my equal.
- Yeah.
524
00:24:44,984 --> 00:24:46,402
{\an8}My only, like,
525
00:24:46,402 --> 00:24:49,864
{\an8}reservation is because it's such,
like, a blissful, like, fun time.
526
00:24:49,864 --> 00:24:52,242
- That I really hope--
- The honeymoon stage.
527
00:24:52,242 --> 00:24:55,203
[Janae] No, I really do hope
that you guys are able--
528
00:24:55,203 --> 00:24:59,332
It doesn't sound like you guys have had,
like, any conflict or like, whatever.
529
00:24:59,332 --> 00:25:01,793
But if you have or you have not,
530
00:25:01,793 --> 00:25:03,294
I really hope you guys are able
531
00:25:03,294 --> 00:25:06,881
to understand how
to properly handle conflict.
532
00:25:06,881 --> 00:25:10,051
- Yeah. Yeah.
- 'Cause, girl, you can be...
533
00:25:12,637 --> 00:25:14,764
He's not a man that gives up easily.
534
00:25:14,764 --> 00:25:18,101
He's a man that's gonna continue
to persevere when,
535
00:25:18,101 --> 00:25:21,729
you know, like,
life throws you curveballs.
536
00:25:21,729 --> 00:25:24,607
[Christy] We're always going to be here.
We've seen what other men
537
00:25:24,607 --> 00:25:28,111
have taken from you,
and we ain't doing that again.
538
00:25:30,321 --> 00:25:32,407
Is there anything holding
you back, though, from it?
539
00:25:32,407 --> 00:25:37,495
{\an8}To make a lifelong commitment
based on the amount of data that I have
540
00:25:37,495 --> 00:25:42,542
{\an8}would accrue
just a tremendous amount of risk.
541
00:25:42,542 --> 00:25:45,128
{\an8}- You're so analytical. You know, like...
- I know.
542
00:25:45,128 --> 00:25:47,839
{\an8}Yeah, like I was saying, like,
you gotta feel it. You gotta feel it.
543
00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:51,092
{\an8}- If you feel it, you feel it, you know?
- Especially these days, man.
544
00:25:51,092 --> 00:25:53,678
Yeah, and that's the thing,
is I think that I do.
545
00:25:53,678 --> 00:25:56,764
Like, I know that I feel love for her.
I know that.
546
00:25:56,764 --> 00:25:58,933
We had such a good date yesterday.
547
00:25:58,933 --> 00:26:03,021
So, we went and forged our wedding rings
at, like, a, you know, blacksmith forge.
548
00:26:03,021 --> 00:26:05,023
- It was so cool, dude.
- Cool, dude.
549
00:26:05,023 --> 00:26:08,067
[Paul] We have similar goals.
Similar understandings.
550
00:26:08,067 --> 00:26:09,652
We look at the world very similarly.
551
00:26:09,652 --> 00:26:12,614
Actually, the same way that kind of both
of you look at the world.
552
00:26:12,614 --> 00:26:13,531
{\an8}Really?
553
00:26:13,531 --> 00:26:16,534
{\an8}This inherent, like,
"the world is fucking absurd," right?
554
00:26:16,534 --> 00:26:18,036
- [Bobby] Yeah.
- It's hilarious.
555
00:26:18,036 --> 00:26:19,746
I don't know who I am
every day of my life.
556
00:26:19,746 --> 00:26:21,539
- [Paul] Yeah.
- [laughing]
557
00:26:21,539 --> 00:26:24,500
When shit doesn't work out,
it's like we can laugh at it, right?
558
00:26:24,500 --> 00:26:27,837
And she can do that, dude,
and I love it so much.
559
00:26:27,837 --> 00:26:29,589
It makes me so happy.
560
00:26:30,256 --> 00:26:32,800
{\an8}Cheers to Micah getting married.
561
00:26:33,384 --> 00:26:34,344
{\an8}[Micah] Cheers.
562
00:26:34,344 --> 00:26:36,346
{\an8}- You crazy bitches!
- [laughing]
563
00:26:38,014 --> 00:26:39,474
[Micah] So, where's my fucking phone?
564
00:26:40,224 --> 00:26:41,225
I need to talk to Paul.
565
00:26:41,225 --> 00:26:43,853
{\an8}- Paul's right here.
- [Micah] I hate you, you crazy bitch.
566
00:26:43,853 --> 00:26:45,980
{\an8}[laughing]
567
00:26:45,980 --> 00:26:48,858
{\an8}[Ruby] Oh, my God! The famous Paul.
568
00:26:48,858 --> 00:26:50,109
{\an8}[Shelby] Look at him!
569
00:26:50,109 --> 00:26:53,029
[Micah] Wait, Zack! Wait, come here.
570
00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:54,572
Meet my friend Ruby.
571
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,492
[Ruby] Hi.
572
00:26:57,492 --> 00:26:59,410
[Micah] Do you miss me, or do you love me?
573
00:26:59,410 --> 00:27:01,412
I don't know what the fuck she's saying.
574
00:27:01,412 --> 00:27:02,872
[Micah] Do you like me or no?
575
00:27:02,872 --> 00:27:06,000
[laughing] Of course I do.
576
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,502
How much? Seriously?
577
00:27:08,002 --> 00:27:09,545
Figure out a way to hear it.
578
00:27:09,545 --> 00:27:12,256
- How much do you love me? Go.
- [Paul laughs]
579
00:27:12,256 --> 00:27:15,301
- [Shelby] No one knows.
- You crazy bitch.
580
00:27:15,301 --> 00:27:17,220
I feel like I'm looking at the ceiling.
581
00:27:17,220 --> 00:27:19,013
- [Shelby] Hey, Paul.
- [Micah] Paul!
582
00:27:19,597 --> 00:27:20,932
Shelby.
583
00:27:20,932 --> 00:27:22,475
[Shelby] It's me getting involved.
584
00:27:22,475 --> 00:27:25,937
I'm really showing up
to your bachelor party right now.
585
00:27:25,937 --> 00:27:26,938
I can't hear you.
586
00:27:26,938 --> 00:27:29,691
- We're gonna come crash.
- I'm showing up. [gasps]
587
00:27:29,691 --> 00:27:31,609
- He hung up.
- No, he didn't.
588
00:27:32,193 --> 00:27:35,613
[Micah] Wait. He actually just called back
four times in a row.
589
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,491
- I need you to meet him.
- [Ruby] I have to meet Paul.
590
00:27:38,491 --> 00:27:40,993
{\an8}He's a super nice guy, but...
591
00:27:40,993 --> 00:27:43,371
{\an8}- [Ruby] But what?
- [Micah] What do you mean "but"?
592
00:27:43,371 --> 00:27:44,747
[Shelby] You know my "but."
593
00:27:44,747 --> 00:27:47,250
[Ruby] What is your "but"?
Besides your huge ass.
594
00:27:47,250 --> 00:27:49,877
[Shelby] He's a great guy.
I like him a lot.
595
00:27:50,586 --> 00:27:52,630
I think she deserves
everything in the world,
596
00:27:52,630 --> 00:27:53,881
and I don't think this is it.
597
00:27:56,342 --> 00:27:59,053
[Micah] I think you guys just both
don't know him very well.
598
00:27:59,053 --> 00:28:02,181
- [Shelby] I met him.
- No, I know that. I know. But no.
599
00:28:02,181 --> 00:28:04,600
[Shelby] Oh, you know him?
After two months?
600
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,020
- I know him better than you do.
- [Ruby] No, but I've heard you once.
601
00:28:08,020 --> 00:28:11,899
I mean, I spent, like,
20 hours a day talking to him.
602
00:28:11,899 --> 00:28:15,778
Do I feel like
he is everything I've ever wanted?
603
00:28:15,778 --> 00:28:17,780
Yes, in this moment, I do.
604
00:28:18,656 --> 00:28:20,616
I need you to understand.
605
00:28:20,616 --> 00:28:24,162
No matter what I do,
I just hope that you guys will support me.
606
00:28:24,162 --> 00:28:25,455
That's all I can ask.
607
00:28:26,539 --> 00:28:28,833
I'm gonna support you.
I might be pissed off.
608
00:28:28,833 --> 00:28:31,711
Do I know if I'll make the right decision?
No, I have no idea.
609
00:28:31,711 --> 00:28:35,965
But, like, in that moment,
all I'm going to need is support.
610
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,427
- I will be there.
- [Micah] Okay, good.
611
00:28:40,595 --> 00:28:43,222
{\an8}I don't think Shelby understands at all,
612
00:28:43,222 --> 00:28:47,977
{\an8}like, what Paul and I have built
through this experience.
613
00:28:47,977 --> 00:28:51,230
He's, like, someone that,
like, people, like, underestimate,
614
00:28:51,230 --> 00:28:53,191
and it's like, "Listen, like, he's great."
615
00:28:53,191 --> 00:28:55,276
"He's great. I promise you guys."
You know?
616
00:28:55,276 --> 00:28:57,737
And I just, like,
I hate that I have to do that.
617
00:28:58,738 --> 00:29:01,574
Paul is, like, so smart.
618
00:29:01,574 --> 00:29:03,284
He's so funny.
619
00:29:03,284 --> 00:29:07,038
He's so cute. He is so epic and so good.
620
00:29:07,038 --> 00:29:08,790
I just want people to, like, see that.
621
00:29:08,790 --> 00:29:13,377
I've been apart from him
for, like, 45 seconds practically,
622
00:29:13,377 --> 00:29:15,254
and I miss him so much.
623
00:29:15,254 --> 00:29:17,757
[chuckles] I love him.
I wish we were together.
624
00:29:18,341 --> 00:29:19,717
I'm gonna text him.
625
00:29:19,717 --> 00:29:23,054
Paul is like a really great love.
626
00:29:23,054 --> 00:29:25,348
It's my life. It's my relationship.
627
00:29:25,348 --> 00:29:28,434
And, you know,
if he's love of my life, like,
628
00:29:29,268 --> 00:29:31,979
that's it,
regardless of anyone else's opinion.

and open up all the gifts?
648
00:30:25,741 --> 00:30:28,494
That's what I felt this morning,
but, like, a hundred times.
649
00:30:28,494 --> 00:30:30,371
That's my bouquet. [chuckles]
650
00:30:30,371 --> 00:30:31,873
It's so beautiful.
651
00:30:31,873 --> 00:30:37,128
I have been preparing my whole life
to marry a man like Kwame.
652
00:30:37,753 --> 00:30:41,424
Kwame possesses every quality
that I've been looking for.
653
00:30:41,424 --> 00:30:44,677
Not only to make a good husband,
but to make a good man, a good person,
654
00:30:44,677 --> 00:30:46,512
a good friend, a loyal son.
655
00:30:47,555 --> 00:30:50,016
You know? I wanted somebody
who was passionate,
656
00:30:50,016 --> 00:30:51,350
compassionate about their work,
657
00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:54,061
what they do,
about the world, about people.
658
00:30:54,061 --> 00:30:57,815
Kwame is all those things.
He's the most talented man I've ever met.
659
00:30:57,815 --> 00:31:00,693
♪ Pick you up, take you where we stay ♪
660
00:31:00,693 --> 00:31:03,821
♪ Take you to the beach
And on that sand, we could lay ♪
661
00:31:03,821 --> 00:31:05,489
♪ I said that real thing ♪
662
00:31:05,489 --> 00:31:08,534
- [both laugh]
- [Chelsea] Oh!
663
00:31:10,244 --> 00:31:14,707
[Kwame] I'm just so excited to wake up
next to you every single day.
664
00:31:14,707 --> 00:31:19,629
And so, I wanted to ask you,
if you would be willing to marry me?
665
00:31:20,796 --> 00:31:24,175
- A thousand times yes!
- [laughing]
666
00:31:24,175 --> 00:31:26,052
[Chelsea] Love you. I love you too.
667
00:31:26,052 --> 00:31:28,179
I'm seriously the luckiest girl on Earth,
you know.
668
00:31:28,179 --> 00:31:32,099
I've never met somebody in my life
that I wanted to be with more than you.
669
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,852
- Mmm. Mmm.
- I love you no matter what.
670
00:31:35,353 --> 00:31:38,189
- [pop music playing]
- [vocalizing]
671
00:31:38,189 --> 00:31:39,982
♪ I won't give up on you... ♪
672
00:31:39,982 --> 00:31:43,194
{\an8}Today is my wedding day.
Talk about excitement. [laughs]
673
00:31:44,570 --> 00:31:47,573
I like to think of my life
as somebody who wants to go all the way
674
00:31:47,573 --> 00:31:51,285
and go extreme, and dive all in
to whatever I decide to do.
675
00:31:51,285 --> 00:31:52,662
Hey!
676
00:31:52,662 --> 00:31:55,706
- [men] Yo! Yo! Yo! Yo!
- [Kwame] The boys. The boys.
677
00:31:55,706 --> 00:31:58,167
{\an8}- What up, baby?
- [Sam] What's up?
678
00:31:58,167 --> 00:32:00,753
{\an8}So, if I'm gonna be married
at the end of today,
679
00:32:00,753 --> 00:32:03,839
{\an8}I'm gonna dive all into being married,
and if I'm gonna be single,
680
00:32:03,839 --> 00:32:07,468
I might just book a flight
to Vegas after this, so... [laughs]
681
00:32:07,468 --> 00:32:10,930
This arguably is the biggest decision
I'm ever gonna make.
682
00:32:11,430 --> 00:32:14,642
There's no way
that anybody in their right mind
683
00:32:15,142 --> 00:32:17,395
could go through what we've gone through,
walk to an altar
684
00:32:17,395 --> 00:32:19,063
and not have any reservations.
685
00:32:19,897 --> 00:32:22,608
I have nothing here
that helps me get back to myself.
686
00:32:22,608 --> 00:32:26,487
I'm gonna drive to Portland
for three hours, and then go lay in my bed
687
00:32:26,487 --> 00:32:28,990
and take a deep breath
and then come back? [chuckles]
688
00:32:29,615 --> 00:32:31,951
I've always been willing
to move to Seattle.
689
00:32:32,576 --> 00:32:35,037
- Sacrifice what you want?
- I'm not sacrificing.
690
00:32:35,037 --> 00:32:36,747
But I am compromising.
691
00:32:36,747 --> 00:32:39,458
{\an8}I wanted to just let you know
692
00:32:39,458 --> 00:32:42,253
{\an8}that I did find someone in the experiment.
693
00:32:42,253 --> 00:32:43,629
You're mad?
694
00:32:44,964 --> 00:32:47,883
- All right, Mom. Bye.
- [phone beeps]
695
00:32:47,883 --> 00:32:49,343
Didn't go well.
696
00:32:49,343 --> 00:32:52,179
My mom's been a big part
of my life. Massive.
697
00:32:52,179 --> 00:32:54,432
She doesn't think that
I used my head in this situation.
698
00:32:56,976 --> 00:33:00,479
Will you say yes to me
without your mom's approval?
699
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,817
It's tough for me
to just look at my mom and be like,
700
00:33:04,817 --> 00:33:08,279
"You've cared for me and loved me
for 32 years,
701
00:33:08,279 --> 00:33:11,615
and I'm just throwing your opinion away."
702
00:33:13,534 --> 00:33:17,496
[Ezekiel] My man is getting married
in less than what, in three hours?
703
00:33:17,496 --> 00:33:20,875
[laughs] I'm getting married
pretty damn soon.
704
00:33:20,875 --> 00:33:24,045
- Yeah.
- Does it, uh, feel surreal to you?
705
00:33:24,879 --> 00:33:26,714
Bro, when I say, man...
706
00:33:27,465 --> 00:33:29,842
[chuckles] ...like, I still, like--
707
00:33:30,718 --> 00:33:33,763
{\an8}I'm still in, like,
a state of surprise, a state of shock.
708
00:33:33,763 --> 00:33:36,182
{\an8}A couple of months ago,
I don't think, like, I knew--
709
00:33:36,682 --> 00:33:38,976
I didn't even know
what a wedding registry was.
710
00:33:38,976 --> 00:33:42,438
- [laughing]
- You know what I'm saying? Like...
711
00:33:42,438 --> 00:33:44,065
It's a whole different life now.
712
00:33:44,065 --> 00:33:45,649
Which by the way, um,
713
00:33:45,649 --> 00:33:48,527
I'm going to send y'all the link
to our wedding registry after this.
714
00:33:48,527 --> 00:33:51,197
{\an8}- [laughing]
- Uh-oh.
715
00:33:51,197 --> 00:33:53,866
{\an8}- Are you expecting something from us, bro?
- [laughs]
716
00:33:54,450 --> 00:33:57,161
Oh! [laughing]
717
00:33:57,161 --> 00:33:58,496
[woman laughs]
718
00:34:00,331 --> 00:34:03,626
{\an8}[Chelsea] Oh, my God.
Thank God you guys are here.
719
00:34:03,626 --> 00:34:05,795
- Oh, my God!
- Would never miss this.
720
00:34:05,795 --> 00:34:08,631
- [Chelsea] Aww. Love you.
- Love you.
721
00:34:08,631 --> 00:34:10,925
[Chelsea] I have such a hard time
describing the feeling,
722
00:34:10,925 --> 00:34:13,260
just because all the love
is so overwhelming.
723
00:34:13,844 --> 00:34:15,763
The gratitude I have for these people.
724
00:34:16,555 --> 00:34:20,768
{\an8}To not only come here,
to travel last minute, right?
725
00:34:20,768 --> 00:34:23,270
Take this on, but to believe in me.
726
00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:27,108
To support the decision that I am making
wholeheartedly and to believe in me.
727
00:34:27,108 --> 00:34:30,402
- You're getting married.
- [shouts] I'm getting married!
728
00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:32,905
{\an8}- I'm so happy.
- [Chelsea laughing]
729
00:34:32,905 --> 00:34:34,365
{\an8}That means everything.
730
00:34:34,365 --> 00:34:38,077
That means more than anything
I could have ever wanted
731
00:34:38,077 --> 00:34:39,453
from my friends and family.
732
00:34:39,453 --> 00:34:42,039
- [sobs]
- Okay, get it all out now.
733
00:34:42,039 --> 00:34:43,207
[sobs, sniffles]
734
00:34:43,207 --> 00:34:44,166
[gasps]
735
00:34:44,166 --> 00:34:46,877
- Look at my bouquet, you guys.
- [Alex] I know. It's incredible.
736
00:34:46,877 --> 00:34:48,963
[Chelsea] It's a fairy tale.
737
00:34:48,963 --> 00:34:50,840
[chuckles, sniffles]
738
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,299
[sniffles]
739
00:34:52,299 --> 00:34:53,759
But your heart's good?
740
00:34:54,301 --> 00:34:55,719
My heart is good. [sighs]
741
00:34:56,303 --> 00:34:59,431
{\an8}I mean, this has been
the craziest journey ever,
742
00:34:59,431 --> 00:35:00,516
but it was so good.
743
00:35:00,516 --> 00:35:02,476
The way I described falling in love
in the pods.
744
00:35:02,476 --> 00:35:05,229
Like, it was the most sacred--
it's, like, the most sacred thing.
745
00:35:05,229 --> 00:35:07,606
- To have conversations.
- [Chelsea] I didn't have family.
746
00:35:07,606 --> 00:35:10,568
I didn't have the friends.
I didn't have, like, any influence.
747
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,237
Like, for the very first time
in my whole life,
748
00:35:13,237 --> 00:35:15,281
I picked somebody solely for me.
749
00:35:15,865 --> 00:35:17,241
Never having seen him.
750
00:35:18,367 --> 00:35:20,077
- You know?
- [Alex] Mm-hmm. Absolutely.
751
00:35:20,077 --> 00:35:22,371
[Chelsea] I get to meet his sister
and his brother today.
752
00:35:22,371 --> 00:35:23,706
- I'm so excited.
- [Alex] Oh!
753
00:35:23,706 --> 00:35:26,500
[Chelsea] Barbara is his sister's name.
She FaceTimed me last night.
754
00:35:26,500 --> 00:35:29,628
She was like, "I'm checking on you.
I love you. Are you okay?"
755
00:35:29,628 --> 00:35:32,381
- That's sweet. She's married too?
- [Chelsea] "Remember what matters."
756
00:35:32,381 --> 00:35:35,926
She's married. She has two young kids.
I was hoping they were gonna get to come.
757
00:35:35,926 --> 00:35:37,678
But with that being said,
758
00:35:38,721 --> 00:35:41,557
for Kwame and I,
you might not know this, but, you know.
759
00:35:41,557 --> 00:35:46,228
- His mother is Ghanaian, as Kwame is.
- [Dimitria] Mm-hmm.
760
00:35:46,228 --> 00:35:49,732
And she has a lot of, um, you know,
761
00:35:49,732 --> 00:35:52,443
morals and ideals and religious values.
762
00:35:52,443 --> 00:35:54,904
Um, for that she would, you know,
763
00:35:54,904 --> 00:35:58,574
appreciate her son to uphold
in a marriage.
764
00:35:58,574 --> 00:36:00,993
And marrying me does not do that.
765
00:36:03,746 --> 00:36:05,956
So, honestly, Kwame's scared.
766
00:36:06,916 --> 00:36:09,543
We do not have her blessing at this time.
767
00:36:11,337 --> 00:36:12,713
Hmm.
768
00:36:12,713 --> 00:36:14,506
[Alex] How does that make you feel?
769
00:36:14,506 --> 00:36:17,384
I have-- I have sadness for him.
770
00:36:17,384 --> 00:36:19,637
I have empathy for that situation.
771
00:36:19,637 --> 00:36:20,638
Not even just for me,
772
00:36:20,638 --> 00:36:23,349
but just for the love
of someone's son and their mother.
773
00:36:23,349 --> 00:36:25,726
- Who wants to get in the way of that?
- Yeah.
774
00:36:25,726 --> 00:36:27,436
Hmm.
775
00:36:27,436 --> 00:36:31,065
So, I think, you know,
that's definitely a fear, you know.
776
00:36:31,065 --> 00:36:34,360
Also, men are not ready
as early as we are.
777
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,653
- No.
- [women chuckle]
778
00:36:35,653 --> 00:36:38,530
[Chelsea] The last few weeks,
he has had to grapple
779
00:36:38,530 --> 00:36:42,326
and come to terms with himself.
"Am I ready?"
780
00:36:42,326 --> 00:36:44,578
You're in.
Like, you are ready to get married.
781
00:36:44,578 --> 00:36:46,080
You're ready to be a wife.
782
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,458
And then to have someone not so ready...
783
00:36:49,458 --> 00:36:51,001
- It's a little scary.
- It is.
784
00:36:51,001 --> 00:36:54,380
- [Dimitria] I mean, that's terrifying.
- Mm-hmm. It is.
785
00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:57,758

and I am so happy to see you just grow
808
00:37:59,570 --> 00:38:02,239
and be the man that you are.
I've raised you right.
809
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,616
[laughs]
810
00:38:04,616 --> 00:38:06,660
- [Barbara] You're my best friend.
- [Kwame] Mm-hmm.
811
00:38:06,660 --> 00:38:08,704
- We slept in the same bed, so...
- Yep.
812
00:38:08,704 --> 00:38:12,666
When I had to sneak out,
I had you sleep on my side, so...
813
00:38:12,666 --> 00:38:15,544
You may not be the best brother.
You know what I mean?
814
00:38:15,544 --> 00:38:16,879
[laughing]
815
00:38:17,463 --> 00:38:19,173
[Barbara] You don't check on nobody.
816
00:38:19,173 --> 00:38:22,301
But I know
just for a fact the person you are.
817
00:38:22,301 --> 00:38:24,511
I know that you're gonna be
a phenomenal husband,
818
00:38:24,511 --> 00:38:26,638
and I am looking forward to it.
819
00:38:30,809 --> 00:38:31,894
[Kwame] I wanna talk to Mom.
820
00:38:31,894 --> 00:38:35,773
I want Mom to still know
that her genuine opinion,
821
00:38:35,773 --> 00:38:38,233
her thoughts still matter to me.
822
00:38:38,233 --> 00:38:39,151
[Barbara] Yeah.
823
00:38:39,693 --> 00:38:41,320
- I spoke to Dad.
- Dad knows?
824
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,030
[Jerry] Yeah. He was excited, bro.
825
00:38:43,030 --> 00:38:44,907
- He's happy for you.
- [Jerry] He's excited.
826
00:38:44,907 --> 00:38:47,201
- Call him. He's excited, bro.
- [Kwame] Really?
827
00:38:47,201 --> 00:38:49,411
- And he's supportive of it, okay?
- Yeah.
828
00:38:49,411 --> 00:38:51,413
But let's talk about Mom,
your best friend.
829
00:38:51,413 --> 00:38:54,208
- My best friend. My best friend.
- Your best friend, you know.
830
00:38:54,208 --> 00:38:56,794
- She's your best friend. You know?
- [laughs]
831
00:38:56,794 --> 00:38:58,796
[Barbara] No one can really replace Mom.
832
00:38:58,796 --> 00:39:02,674
- [Kwame] Yes.
- Mom has been there for you 100%.
833
00:39:02,674 --> 00:39:03,842
One-hundred and ten.
834
00:39:03,842 --> 00:39:05,969
- You know, Mom is into the Word.
- [Kwame] Hmm.
835
00:39:05,969 --> 00:39:07,429
Mom is into prayer.
836
00:39:07,429 --> 00:39:11,308
So, even if she's not here,
she's praying for you.
837
00:39:11,308 --> 00:39:14,103
- She's praying for you to be the best man.
- [Kwame] Mm-hmm.
838
00:39:14,103 --> 00:39:18,232
To be the best son, you know.
Kwame, you still pray?
839
00:39:18,816 --> 00:39:22,069
- [Jerry scoffs] Yeah.
- Anyway, I'm telling Mom. I'm telling Mom.
840
00:39:22,069 --> 00:39:24,154
- [laughing]
- I'm telling Mom.
841
00:39:25,823 --> 00:39:29,410
Boy hasn't said a prayer in,
like, 15 years. [laughing]
842
00:39:29,410 --> 00:39:33,205
I always knew I will find a way
for Mom to cut you off the will.
843
00:39:33,205 --> 00:39:36,375
"Hey, Ma. Kwame don't pray."
"Okay, I'm done with him."
844
00:39:36,375 --> 00:39:38,085
- [laughing]
- You can't do that, bro.
845
00:39:38,085 --> 00:39:40,379
But one thing that I know for sure is
846
00:39:40,379 --> 00:39:44,007
she loves you dearly, and she will
forever love you, and she still loves you.
847
00:39:44,007 --> 00:39:47,428
So, when the time is right,
you know, when you come home,
848
00:39:47,928 --> 00:39:50,681
she'll get to meet her daughter-in-law.
849
00:39:50,681 --> 00:39:52,516
- Yeah.
- [Barbara] She's gonna love Chelsea.
850
00:39:52,516 --> 00:39:53,600
I believe so too.
851
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,812
I think you just have to give her
some time, but when that time is due,
852
00:39:56,812 --> 00:39:59,898
and you bring her, Mom will...
you can't help it.
853
00:40:02,025 --> 00:40:03,277
- I love you.
- [Jerry] Yeah.
854
00:40:03,277 --> 00:40:04,820
You know how much you mean to me.
855
00:40:04,820 --> 00:40:07,197
I'll be right there with you.
Jerry will be right there.
856
00:40:07,197 --> 00:40:09,658
We got you, but there's no turning back.
857
00:40:09,658 --> 00:40:12,703
- You turn back, I'm pushing you to...
- [laughing]
858
00:40:12,703 --> 00:40:15,456
By God, you ain't getting me
all the way here...
859
00:40:15,456 --> 00:40:18,250
- [Jerry] Too late to turn back.
- No turning back.
860
00:40:18,250 --> 00:40:19,751
And nothing but the best.
861
00:40:19,751 --> 00:40:22,754
You mind if we say, um,
a quick prayer before we head out?
862
00:40:22,754 --> 00:40:25,382
- Let's do it. Let's do it.
- Yeah. Come on. Hey! [mutters]
863
00:40:25,382 --> 00:40:28,302
[laughing]
864
00:40:28,302 --> 00:40:29,553
[Jerry] All right, Father God,
865
00:40:29,553 --> 00:40:32,014
we just commit
our brother into your hands today,
866
00:40:32,014 --> 00:40:37,186
that as he's going through his journey
with his marriage, that you protect him.
867
00:40:37,186 --> 00:40:42,316
Make him the man he needs to be,
the husband his wife would want him to be,
868
00:40:42,316 --> 00:40:44,443
and as they grow and have kids,
869
00:40:44,443 --> 00:40:46,695
he would be the father his kids need.
870
00:40:46,695 --> 00:40:48,864
Um, we just pray that
in Jesus' name. Amen.
871
00:40:48,864 --> 00:40:49,948
- Amen.
- Amen.

Mom, just so you know,
you know, when I was, um,

when I was falling in love
with Kwame in the pods... [sniffles]
906

and be like, "Your wife."

better than that, Zeke!

Everything is meant to be.

- Yes, you do.

- So, something blue.
- Oh, something blue.
952

Something new.
953
00:44:25,163 --> 00:44:29,167
- Oh, that's so sweet.
- This is really the women in our culture.
954
00:44:29,167 --> 00:44:31,753
- They put this together, you know.

of Ghana with you.
957

- That's very sweet.
- [Barbara] And we love you so much.
958
00:44:39,553 --> 00:44:42,264
- Thank you.
- [Barbara] You're gonna be the best.
959
00:44:42,264 --> 00:44:46,101
I am looking forward to just...
having a sister. I'm the only girl.
960
00:44:46,101 --> 00:44:48,019
I just wanna say, you know, thank you for...
961
00:44:48,019 --> 00:44:52,524
[sniffles] ...you know, your part
in making your brother who he is for me.

00:45:14,963 --> 00:45:17,382
- [Chelsea] Thank you, Barbara.
- Bye, Barbara.
972
00:45:17,382 --> 00:45:20,385
Whatever decision you make,
we support you, man.
973
00:45:20,385 --> 00:45:21,762
- To love.
- Cheers, boys.

00:45:41,198 --> 00:45:42,991
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Yeah. Do you wish Mom was here?
981
00:46:00,133 --> 00:46:02,010
- Of course.
- Yeah.
982
00:46:02,010 --> 00:46:03,136
I can't be Mom.
983
00:46:03,136 --> 00:46:05,722
- [laughs]
- But Mom loves you regardless.
984
00:46:05,722 --> 00:46:07,808
You know what I mean? Just know that.
985
00:46:07,808 --> 00:46:10,602
You're gonna do great.
You're gonna be a good husband.
986
00:46:10,602 --> 00:46:12,854
- Make us proud.

When I look at Chelsea,
I see-- I see my partner.
992
00:46:30,038 --> 00:46:32,707
Someone who's very strong.
Someone who's very bold.
993
00:46:32,707 --> 00:46:35,252
Someone who is loving.
Somebody who's very caring.
994

Somebody who is
995
00:46:38,255 --> 00:46:40,173
very, very confident.
996
00:46:40,173 --> 00:46:42,843

to understanding.

Yeah.

00:46:48,181 --> 00:46:49,391
- This is amazing.
- Yeah.
1000
00:46:55,814 --> 00:46:57,566
But I do have cold feet.
1001
00:46:58,233 --> 00:47:00,694
I think it wouldn't be right
to not have cold feet.
1002
00:47:00,694 --> 00:47:03,029
There's so much coming up, and I'm scared.
1003
00:47:03,029 --> 00:47:05,115
[chuckles] I'm hella scared.
1004
00:47:06,908 --> 00:47:09,035
My biggest fear is that we crash and burn.
1005
00:47:09,035 --> 00:47:11,621
We jump off of a cliff
and don't have a parachute,
1006
00:47:11,621 --> 00:47:16,042
don't have a safety net,
nothing works, and then, um, we implode.
1007
00:47:16,626 --> 00:47:18,503
That's a pretty scary moment.
1008
00:47:19,170 --> 00:47:21,464
So, I hope that we make the right choices.

this very significant moment
in their lives,
1066
00:50:44,042 --> 00:50:47,170
as they decide whether or not
to become a married couple.
1067
00:50:49,172 --> 00:50:51,257
Marriage is a commitment to life.
1068
00:50:51,257 --> 00:50:54,594
The best that two people can find
and bring out in each other.
1069
00:50:55,345 --> 00:50:56,888
Marriage is perhaps the greatest
1070
00:50:56,888 --> 00:51:00,350
and most challenging adventure
of all human relationships.
1071
00:51:00,850 --> 00:51:02,936
It's a physical and emotional joining
1072

that is promised for a lifetime.
1073
00:51:05,271 --> 00:51:09,692

and a best friend.

I love you not only for who you are,

00:51:28,503 --> 00:51:30,421
but for who I am when I'm with you."

"I love you because of what you have done
1082
00:51:32,298 --> 00:51:34,467

to do to make me better."

"So, here's to jumping off together
to the cliff of the eternal universe,
1084

but in each other's arms."

for the most beautiful adventure of life
with you as your wife forever."

00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:01,703
I will share what's on my mind.
1090
00:52:03,746 --> 00:52:05,915
I love the sound of your voice.
1091
00:52:05,915 --> 00:52:07,917
I love the way you make me feel.
1092
00:52:08,710 --> 00:52:12,922
I love when we disagree
because it makes us come back together
1093
00:52:12,922 --> 00:52:15,216
and let us know how strong we are.
1094
00:52:15,216 --> 00:52:16,926
We get stronger by the moment.
1095
00:52:18,178 --> 00:52:19,345
We get closer by the day.
1096
00:52:19,929 --> 00:52:22,557
And the reason I did not need
to write anything
1097
00:52:22,557 --> 00:52:26,186
is because I will be able
to tell you right now how I feel,
1098
00:52:26,186 --> 00:52:28,313
and that's not something I can write down.
1099
00:52:28,313 --> 00:52:33,193
I fell in love with your beautiful soul
in an opportunity where I didn't get
1100
00:52:33,193 --> 00:52:36,613
to see your absolutely
incredibly stunning shell.
1101

[Chelsea chuckles]
1102
00:52:39,032 --> 00:52:41,201
[Kwame] I just cannot believe
that I'm fortunate enough
1103
00:52:41,201 --> 00:52:43,578
to stand across from somebody
1104
00:52:44,204 --> 00:52:46,164
who is as captivating as you.
1105
00:52:51,252 --> 00:52:53,087
[officiant] The two
of you chose to get engaged
1106
00:52:53,087 --> 00:52:57,342
and spend the rest of your lives together
based on a deep emotional connection.
1107
00:52:57,342 --> 00:53:00,803
You fell in love with each other
based on who you are on the inside
1108
00:53:00,803 --> 00:53:03,890
and decided to get married sight unseen.
1109
00:53:06,476 --> 00:53:09,729
Now is the time to decide
if love is blind.
1110
00:53:12,273 --> 00:53:15,777
Do you, Chelsea, take Kwame
to be your lawfully wedded husband?
1111
00:53:15,777 --> 00:53:19,239
Do you promise to support him
in sickness and in health,
1112
00:53:19,864 --> 00:53:23,284
in joy and in sorrow,
in good times and in bad?
1113
00:53:23,785 --> 00:53:25,995
Do you promise
to love him without distraction
1114
00:53:25,995 --> 00:53:28,122
and comfort him in times of distress?
1115
00:53:28,122 --> 00:53:31,000
To grow with him in mind and spirit?
1116
00:53:31,584 --> 00:53:33,628
To always be open and honest with him?
1117
00:53:33,628 --> 00:53:36,923
To cherish him
for as long as you both shall live?

00:53:39,133 --> 00:53:40,134
I do.

because it could be,

of Paul and I's life together.
1125
00:54:22,260 --> 00:54:23,261
You guys like?
1126
00:54:23,261 --> 00:54:24,304
Stunning.
1127
00:54:24,304 --> 00:54:27,223
We're more in love than ever.
We're happier than ever.
1128
00:54:27,223 --> 00:54:31,644
You know, when you love someone,
it doesn't mean it's going to work out.
1129
00:54:32,895 --> 00:54:35,440
[Paul] Today will be one
of the biggest decisions
1130
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:36,816
I've ever made in my life.
1131
00:54:36,816 --> 00:54:38,109
I do love her. I do.
1132
00:54:38,109 --> 00:54:39,360
That is what matters.
1133
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:43,281
If I ended up losing her,
I would not be okay with it.
1134

I'm vacillating between
that deep peace and then like... [shouts]

1136

[Bliss] I really, really,
really, really love Zack,
1137
00:54:51,539 --> 00:54:53,124
but it's a lot of pressure.
1138
00:54:54,584 --> 00:54:57,670
[Zack] I don't wanna be in a marriage

of my life.

I don't ever wanna be a person
that makes a decision like this,

00:55:05,845 --> 00:55:07,138
then comes back and be like,

"Actually, sorry, babe.
It didn't work out."
