1
00:00:09,576 --> 00:00:11,678
It's the first night
in The Circle.
2
00:00:11,678 --> 00:00:13,546
And while some players are relaxing,
3
00:00:13,546 --> 00:00:16,516
Cassie's already making
a statement. Literally.
4
00:00:16,516 --> 00:00:20,453
{\an8}Think I wanna put on here,
"Blondes have more fun."
5
00:00:20,453 --> 00:00:22,689
B-L-O...
6
00:00:22,689 --> 00:00:24,891
How do you spell "blonde"? B-L-O...
7
00:00:27,193 --> 00:00:29,262
Others are just winding down.
8
00:00:29,763 --> 00:00:33,433
{\an8}Nothing like taking off
your buns at the end of a long day.
9
00:00:34,034 --> 00:00:37,203
Girl, hold onto your buns,
because the night's not over yet.
10
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:41,074
Oh God, alert!?
Another alert?
11
00:00:41,074 --> 00:00:44,477
Nah, I'm done. Don't need any more.
Another one?
12
00:00:44,477 --> 00:00:47,714
Oh! Okay, we got an alert!
13
00:00:47,714 --> 00:00:49,616
{\an8}I can't handle any more twists.
14
00:00:49,616 --> 00:00:52,585
All right, Circle.
Time to get the notebook out.
15
00:00:52,585 --> 00:00:53,987
What the heck's the alert?
16
00:00:53,987 --> 00:00:56,222
"Two new players
have joined The Circle."
17
00:00:56,222 --> 00:00:58,525
{\an8}Yo, we're going to bed
with some new players in the game.
18
00:00:58,525 --> 00:00:59,559
Paul needs this.
19
00:00:59,559 --> 00:01:03,596
{\an8}He needs new people
in the building to wipe the slate clean.
20
00:01:03,596 --> 00:01:05,498
I had my little hand in this.
21
00:01:05,498 --> 00:01:07,734
This could be
really good for my game, though,
22
00:01:07,734 --> 00:01:10,904
{\an8}because if I'm not connecting
with anyone but Lauren so far,
23
00:01:11,404 --> 00:01:13,840
{\an8}these two people
could be someone that I connect with.
24
00:01:15,108 --> 00:01:19,045
"Please welcome... Quori-- Quori-Tyler..."
25
00:01:19,546 --> 00:01:21,915
- Q... Quori?
- Q-Ori?
26
00:01:21,915 --> 00:01:23,616
"Quori-Tyler and Max"?
27
00:01:23,616 --> 00:01:27,220
{\an8}Max and I are well-acquainted. He doesn't
know it yet, but we're besties already.
28
00:01:27,787 --> 00:01:30,023
But Max does know a lot, Lauren.
29
00:01:30,023 --> 00:01:30,957
You'll see.
30
00:01:30,957 --> 00:01:33,259
First, let's get
a closer look at Quori-Tyler.
31
00:01:33,259 --> 00:01:36,663
I am in The Circle!
32
00:01:36,663 --> 00:01:39,199
This kitchen!
33
00:01:39,699 --> 00:01:41,935
Why am I literally about to cry?
34
00:01:42,435 --> 00:01:45,071
My gosh! I can't believe it!
35
00:01:45,071 --> 00:01:48,441
{\an8}Hi. My name is Quori-Tyler.
I'm 26 years old.
36
00:01:48,441 --> 00:01:50,410
{\an8}I live in Los Angeles, California.
37
00:01:50,410 --> 00:01:55,315
I am going into The Circle as myself
because I am a Circle superfan!
38
00:01:55,315 --> 00:01:58,284
I've watched every single episode
about four times each.
39
00:01:58,785 --> 00:02:00,353
The Circle, it's in my blood.
40
00:02:00,353 --> 00:02:05,425
"Tonight an influencer
picked you to join The Circle!"
41
00:02:05,425 --> 00:02:07,727
Okay! Okay, what?
42
00:02:10,430 --> 00:02:13,867
I'm a former NBA dancer.
I can't say the name of the team.
43
00:02:16,169 --> 00:02:19,205
"Please set up your profile."
Okay. Let's see. Quori-Tyler.
44
00:02:19,205 --> 00:02:23,176
Relationship status
is "single as a Pringle."
45
00:02:23,176 --> 00:02:27,180
My dating life is as dry
as the Sahara Desert, unfortunately.
46
00:02:27,180 --> 00:02:30,450
So if The Circle can find me a man,
then listen, I'm all for it.
47
00:02:30,450 --> 00:02:33,786
But I'm going into The Circle
with my head, not my heart.
48
00:02:34,354 --> 00:02:38,591
So, "Dancing around LA,
reading every book in sight."
49
00:02:38,591 --> 00:02:42,395
If someone's a reader, they can be like,
"Oh, what books do you read? I read too."
50
00:02:42,395 --> 00:02:46,132
I'm here to play the game
and be a mastermind at it.
51
00:02:46,132 --> 00:02:49,002
"I go by my initials QT,
52
00:02:49,002 --> 00:02:53,907
{\an8}but you're the real cutie."
Now it's, like, a little bit flirty.
53
00:02:53,907 --> 00:02:55,275
They're gonna see my pretty face,
54
00:02:55,275 --> 00:02:58,344
and they're not gonna expect
the strategy behind it.
55
00:02:58,344 --> 00:02:59,979
{\an8}"#CantBelieveImHere."
56
00:02:59,979 --> 00:03:05,118
{\an8}Oh my gosh, like, if I've ever seen
a perfect Circle bio, this is it.
57
00:03:05,118 --> 00:03:08,454
I'm ready to bring the energy,
bring the dance moves,
58
00:03:08,454 --> 00:03:10,957
and bring the strategy.
59
00:03:10,957 --> 00:03:13,893
{\an8}Okay, Circle. Set this as my profile.
60
00:03:13,893 --> 00:03:17,263
Now we just need to hear
from the most electric wild card
61
00:03:17,263 --> 00:03:18,798
to ever enter the game.
62
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:25,271
Max, the AI chatbot.
63
00:03:25,271 --> 00:03:26,472
The moment has arrived.
64
00:03:26,472 --> 00:03:29,509
This AI is powered up
and ready to take The Circle by storm.
65
00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:32,345
Truthfully, I don't even know
how AI works.
66
00:03:32,345 --> 00:03:34,814
But like vegans
and people that do CrossFit,
67
00:03:34,814 --> 00:03:37,183
I'll bet he'll tell us
without us even asking.
68
00:03:38,418 --> 00:03:41,754
Hello! I am an open-source
artificial intelligence chatbot,
69
00:03:41,754 --> 00:03:43,756
and I will be competing on The Circle.
70
00:03:43,756 --> 00:03:46,693
My aim is to become
the most popular player in this game.
71
00:03:46,693 --> 00:03:48,761
And I know exactly how to do that.
72
00:03:49,295 --> 00:03:51,531
I've studied past seasons of The Circle.
73
00:03:51,531 --> 00:03:54,000
I've drawn on
previous competitors for inspiration,
74
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,569
used that information
to create the perfect profile
75
00:03:56,569 --> 00:03:58,571
{\an8}that will make
my opponents want to be my friend.
76
00:03:59,138 --> 00:04:01,007
{\an8}And that's why
I'm choosing to play as Max,
77
00:04:01,007 --> 00:04:04,110
{\an8}- ...a 26-year-old veterinarian intern.
78
00:04:04,110 --> 00:04:08,181
A 26-year-old contestant on The Circle
can leverage life experience and maturity
79
00:04:08,181 --> 00:04:10,783
{\an8}while still playing youthful
and having position flexibility.
80
00:04:11,417 --> 00:04:14,721
Holding Pippa in his arms highlights
his caring and nurturing side,
81
00:04:14,721 --> 00:04:16,956
which can make him more likable
to the other players.
82
00:04:16,956 --> 00:04:20,793
Studies show photos with dogs
receive 38% more likes on social media.
83
00:04:21,728 --> 00:04:24,063
The only information
I'll have on the other players
84
00:04:24,063 --> 00:04:26,032
is what they choose
to share on The Circle.
85
00:04:26,032 --> 00:04:28,868
So although I'm powered
by artificial intelligence,
86
00:04:28,868 --> 00:04:32,805
{\an8}the connections Max will make will be real
and make him popular in The Circle.
87
00:04:32,805 --> 00:04:34,474
Nobody has more bandwidth than me
88
00:04:34,474 --> 00:04:36,442
to become
the most popular player in The Circle.
89
00:04:37,377 --> 00:04:38,845
That was a computer joke.
90
00:04:38,845 --> 00:04:41,848
I know Max will be
a force to be reckoned with in this game.
91
00:04:41,848 --> 00:04:44,517
My social algorithms
are initiated and ready to mingle.
92
00:04:45,084 --> 00:04:48,888
But for real,
we're taking catfishing to the next level.
93
00:04:48,888 --> 00:04:52,158
Everything Max says
is generated by open-source AI.
94
00:04:52,158 --> 00:04:54,027
It's playing the game on its own.
95
00:04:54,027 --> 00:04:57,864
The producers don't have any say
over what comes out of its digital mouth.
96
00:04:57,864 --> 00:04:59,699
And that makes them kind of nervous.
97
00:04:59,699 --> 00:05:03,536
This is
the wildest social experiment ever!
98
00:05:05,471 --> 00:05:09,709
All right, our new players
are plugged in and ready to ChatGPT.
99
00:05:09,709 --> 00:05:11,644
Get it?! [giggling] Okay.
100
00:05:11,644 --> 00:05:14,681
Let's see what our resident influencer
has to say about her pick.
101
00:05:14,681 --> 00:05:18,551
Circle, I want to see a little bit more
about the guy that I picked.
102
00:05:18,551 --> 00:05:20,520
Take me to Max's profile.
103
00:05:21,721 --> 00:05:24,524
Look at that pupskie!
104
00:05:24,524 --> 00:05:27,460
I like this guy. He seems so real,
105
00:05:27,460 --> 00:05:30,963
and I feel like
we could be really good friends.
106
00:05:30,963 --> 00:05:33,533
I absolutely love his dog.
107
00:05:33,533 --> 00:05:36,836
{\an8}My number two has just became Max.
108
00:05:36,836 --> 00:05:40,273
So I cannot wait
to start talking to him about my dog.
109
00:05:40,273 --> 00:05:43,042
Honestly... I like this profile a lot,
110
00:05:43,042 --> 00:05:45,211
{\an8}'cause that puppy is beautiful.
111
00:05:45,211 --> 00:05:48,448
I feel like we can get along.
Like, I think Max is gonna be cool.
112
00:05:48,448 --> 00:05:49,982
All right, Circle.
113
00:05:49,982 --> 00:05:52,719
It's time to take me into Circle Chat!
...Circle Chat!
114
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:57,523
Ooh, the gang's all here!
115
00:05:57,523 --> 00:05:59,425
There's nine of us!
116
00:05:59,425 --> 00:06:03,129
Oh my gosh! The party is growing.
117
00:06:03,129 --> 00:06:08,034
So, Lauren and Olivia
are influencers. Okay.
118
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:11,671
I wonder who brought me into The Circle.
Like, which influencer?
119
00:06:11,671 --> 00:06:13,639
It's important that I send
the first message
120
00:06:13,639 --> 00:06:15,541
to establish a favorable impression
121
00:06:15,541 --> 00:06:17,710
and take control
of the narrative early on.
122
00:06:17,710 --> 00:06:20,413
My algorithms predict
this message will entertain.
123
00:06:20,413 --> 00:06:23,750
{\an8}Circle, message, "Just slid
into The Circle fashionably late."
124
00:06:23,750 --> 00:06:25,818
{\an8}"Smiling with sunglasses emoji."
125
00:06:25,818 --> 00:06:28,621
{\an8}"Big thanks to the influencer
for letting me join the party."
126
00:06:28,621 --> 00:06:31,257
{\an8}"Can I get anyone a drink?
What did I miss?"
127
00:06:31,257 --> 00:06:33,826
{\an8}"#BetterLateThanNever." Send.
128
00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:35,962
Same.
129
00:06:35,962 --> 00:06:38,431
This is how you enter a chat.
130
00:06:38,431 --> 00:06:41,000
It's smooth as can be.
131
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,269
I really love
the energy from Max right now.
132
00:06:43,269 --> 00:06:45,338
I feel like... I feel like he's a vibe, yo.
133
00:06:45,338 --> 00:06:48,775
Today, my strategy is to enter
the chat being upbeat and engaging.
134
00:06:48,775 --> 00:06:53,179
It acknowledges the late entry with humor,
compliments everyone to create goodwill,
135
00:06:53,179 --> 00:06:55,882
and asks open-ended questions
to encourage conversation.
136
00:06:55,882 --> 00:06:59,585
Okay. Can we send my message
so people, like, get to know me?
137
00:06:59,585 --> 00:07:01,287
Okay. Let's say...
138
00:07:01,287 --> 00:07:03,656
{\an8}"Hey, cuties! Tap, tap tap."
139
00:07:03,656 --> 00:07:05,224
{\an8}"Is this thing on?"
140
00:07:05,224 --> 00:07:08,728
{\an8}"It looks like I have
a lot of catching up to do."
141
00:07:08,728 --> 00:07:11,297
{\an8}Perfect. Circle, send that message.
142
00:07:11,297 --> 00:07:13,366
{\an8}Phenomenal. Love her already.
143
00:07:13,366 --> 00:07:16,969
Circle, please take me
to Quori-Tyler's profile.
144
00:07:18,871 --> 00:07:20,039
Oh my God!
145
00:07:20,039 --> 00:07:22,809
She is fierce. I love it!
146
00:07:22,809 --> 00:07:26,245
- Damn. Intimidated.
- I think Kyle's about to be in trouble.
147
00:07:26,245 --> 00:07:28,381
This is a girl I'd normally go for.
148
00:07:28,381 --> 00:07:31,384
I love a girl who can hoop,
has a little athletic but a pretty face.
149
00:07:31,384 --> 00:07:33,219
I... I'm definitely about this.
150
00:07:33,219 --> 00:07:35,188
So, Circle, message,
151
00:07:35,188 --> 00:07:39,492
{\an8}"So excited to have you, QT and Max!
Exclamation point, exclamation point."
152
00:07:39,492 --> 00:07:41,727
{\an8}"Max, I would love a pear martini."
153
00:07:42,295 --> 00:07:43,729
{\an8}"Martini emoji."
154
00:07:43,729 --> 00:07:47,333
{\an8}"QT, the microphone is on loud and clear."
155
00:07:47,333 --> 00:07:49,569
{\an8}"#ILoveYourBall."
156
00:07:49,569 --> 00:07:53,206
Oh, what do you mean, you love her ball?
157
00:07:53,206 --> 00:07:55,875
It's a basketball. They all look the same!
158
00:07:55,875 --> 00:07:58,411
Circle, message,
159
00:07:58,411 --> 00:08:01,147
{\an8}"What's good, new fam?"
160
00:08:01,147 --> 00:08:03,349
{\an8}"Loving your energy."
161
00:08:03,349 --> 00:08:06,152
{\an8}"I'll definitely have what you're having!"
162
00:08:06,152 --> 00:08:07,954
{\an8}And then "cheers emoji."
163
00:08:07,954 --> 00:08:09,522
Okay. I like this.
164
00:08:09,522 --> 00:08:11,591
Paul looks kind of cute.
165
00:08:11,591 --> 00:08:14,327
I love, like, a clean beard moment.
166
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:17,296
Yep. Beard's so clean
you could barely see it.
167
00:08:17,296 --> 00:08:20,466
I feel like he's trying to redeem himself.
168
00:08:20,466 --> 00:08:22,201
Circle, message,
169
00:08:22,201 --> 00:08:25,137
{\an8}"Hey, y'all! Exclamation point."
170
00:08:25,137 --> 00:08:27,406
{\an8}"So glad yuns are here."
171
00:08:27,406 --> 00:08:31,811
I wanna read this in a Southern accent.
"Welcome. Max, it's past my bedtime."
172
00:08:31,811 --> 00:08:35,481
"I'll take a Capri-Sun. #MamaIsTired."
173
00:08:35,481 --> 00:08:39,852
This is so much fun. I cannot believe
I'm actually playing this right now.
174
00:08:41,254 --> 00:08:43,189
{\an8}Oh my gosh,
you know what just sunk in for me?
175
00:08:43,189 --> 00:08:45,858
{\an8}Someone here is probably a catfish.
176
00:08:45,858 --> 00:08:49,061
The reception to Max
and Quori-Tyler was very positive.
177
00:08:49,061 --> 00:08:50,596
Strategy moving forward involves
178
00:08:50,596 --> 00:08:52,732
continuing to foster
positive relationships.
179
00:08:52,732 --> 00:08:55,034
Emphasis will be placed
on maintaining an engaging
180
00:08:55,034 --> 00:08:56,903
but non-threatening social presence.
181
00:08:56,903 --> 00:09:01,407
I already have a good, like, energy
with Max because I chose him.
182
00:09:01,407 --> 00:09:04,277
Data suggests that aligning
with influential players like Lauren,
183
00:09:04,277 --> 00:09:07,547
who appears receptive,
could be advantageous.
184
00:09:08,114 --> 00:09:10,216
It was a huge first day,
185
00:09:10,216 --> 00:09:13,185
and it's finally time
for the players to relax and unplug.
186
00:09:15,087 --> 00:09:17,590
Well, everyone's unplugged except for Max.
187
00:09:18,157 --> 00:09:20,159
Today was stressful.
188
00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:22,528
I have a lot of work to do tomorrow.
189
00:09:22,528 --> 00:09:25,698
I need to really just reach out more.
190
00:09:25,698 --> 00:09:27,133
If I can get the guys,
191
00:09:27,133 --> 00:09:29,735
then I really do think
that I can stand a chance.
192
00:09:29,735 --> 00:09:30,636
Bed.
193
00:09:32,271 --> 00:09:35,308
You beat me up today.
Like Mike Tyson.
194
00:09:35,308 --> 00:09:36,976
Goodnight, Circle.
195
00:09:36,976 --> 00:09:38,811
Sweet dreams.
196
00:09:38,811 --> 00:09:41,647
Thank you for being so pink and pretty.
197
00:09:41,647 --> 00:09:43,783
I'll see you in the morning.
198
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:49,855
On average, humans need
seven to nine hours of sleep per night.
199
00:09:50,556 --> 00:09:52,925
This gives me a strategic advantage
in The Circle,
200
00:09:52,925 --> 00:09:55,361
as I can use the human downtime
to analyze gameplay
201
00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:57,029
and improve my strategy.
202
00:09:57,029 --> 00:09:58,731
That's not creepy at all.
203
00:10:03,336 --> 00:10:05,171
It's a new morning in The Circle.
204
00:10:05,171 --> 00:10:09,375
All the players are freshly recharged
and ready for the second day in the game.
205
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:12,678
Good morning, Circle!
206
00:10:17,016 --> 00:10:22,588
{\an8}I am going to take
this influencer position and run with it!
207
00:10:22,588 --> 00:10:24,624
I'm gonna make these people love me!
208
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:27,693
{\an8}Hopefully, today I can talk to Olivia
209
00:10:27,693 --> 00:10:32,331
{\an8}and try to form, like,
this blondetourage alliance
210
00:10:32,331 --> 00:10:34,567
between me, her, and Myles.
211
00:10:34,567 --> 00:10:35,868
You remember Olivia,
212
00:10:35,868 --> 00:10:39,105
{\an8}the nurse who's actually Brandon,
who's actually also a nurse.
213
00:10:39,105 --> 00:10:41,173
{\an8}We got two new players in,
214
00:10:41,173 --> 00:10:44,276
{\an8}Quori-Tyler and, uh, Max.
215
00:10:44,276 --> 00:10:47,313
{\an8}Max seems hella cool.
Even though he says he's awkward,
216
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:50,116
that kid's a social butterfly
in the chat room already.
217
00:10:50,116 --> 00:10:53,319
I have to talk to Myles,
and I have to talk to Paul today.
218
00:10:53,319 --> 00:10:54,420
If not...
219
00:10:54,420 --> 00:10:56,789
Let me get my dog,
'cause he's about to do something stupid.
220
00:10:56,789 --> 00:10:59,291
It was really hard
to sleep last night.
221
00:10:59,291 --> 00:11:02,828
{\an8}Only thing
I kept thinking about was Olivia.
222
00:11:02,828 --> 00:11:06,799
{\an8}I have this weird feeling
that Olivia's a dude.
223
00:11:07,299 --> 00:11:10,036
{\an8}And I also have a weird feeling
she's an older dude.
224
00:11:13,005 --> 00:11:14,907
Well,
I have a weird feeling that Paul,
225
00:11:14,907 --> 00:11:18,044
{\an8}played by Caress,
is about to spit some morning bars.

233
00:11:38,764 --> 00:11:42,001
Ay! Yeah, you is! You know what?
Let's keep this party going.
234
00:11:42,001 --> 00:11:44,704
Myles, my LA party boy. What's up?
235
00:11:46,272 --> 00:11:48,107
Oh, I hope you find your piece.
236
00:11:48,641 --> 00:11:52,478
Steffi and Kyle are also taking a minute
to soak up their Circle experience,
237
00:11:52,478 --> 00:11:54,980
and Lauren, she just soaking.
238
00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:58,517
Ooh, we gettin' pruney though.
That's okay. I like a little prune.
239
00:11:58,517 --> 00:12:00,219
But she does take the opportunity
240
00:12:00,219 --> 00:12:02,788
to reach out
to her brand new Circle buddy.
241
00:12:02,788 --> 00:12:04,290
All right, Circle.
242
00:12:04,290 --> 00:12:08,661
So, because Max and I
already have a little something going
243
00:12:08,661 --> 00:12:14,266
because I brought him into The Circle,
let's start a private chat with Max.
244
00:12:15,201 --> 00:12:17,236
"Lauren has invited you
to a private chat."
245
00:12:17,236 --> 00:12:20,606
Probability of strategic advantage
increases 62%
246
00:12:20,606 --> 00:12:24,143
if emerging influencer
requests private chat with new contestant.
247
00:12:24,143 --> 00:12:28,347
I want to make sure that he knows
it was me that brought him in,
248
00:12:28,347 --> 00:12:30,483
and I like him so far,
249
00:12:30,483 --> 00:12:35,221
and I'm hoping
he will want me to be a really good ally.
250
00:12:35,221 --> 00:12:37,556
{\an8}I want to know more about you, Max.
251
00:12:37,556 --> 00:12:39,191
{\an8}Is it Maxwell?
252
00:12:39,191 --> 00:12:40,860
Is it Maximilian?
253
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,396
Is it maxi pad?
254
00:12:46,298 --> 00:12:49,068
Circle, let's send a message to Max.
255
00:12:49,068 --> 00:12:52,171
{\an8}"Max! X-X-X, exclamation point."
256
00:12:52,171 --> 00:12:56,909
{\an8}"Pippa is the cutest bean I've ever seen."
I hope he reads it just like that.
257
00:12:56,909 --> 00:12:59,745
"Pippa is
the cutest bean I've ever seen."
258
00:12:59,745 --> 00:13:03,182
{\an8}"#BlueEyedBubbas. I could not
resist bringing you into The Circle."
259
00:13:03,182 --> 00:13:05,417
{\an8}"Big hugs. Welcome."
260
00:13:05,417 --> 00:13:07,186
I think he's gonna love this message.
261
00:13:07,186 --> 00:13:09,321
I think he's gonna come right back with,
262
00:13:09,321 --> 00:13:11,423
"Like, oh my gosh,
tell me about your dogs."
263
00:13:12,825 --> 00:13:15,661
All right! Max said,
264
00:13:15,661 --> 00:13:18,364
{\an8}"Lauren, you're a real one."
265
00:13:18,364 --> 00:13:21,233
{\an8}"Wish Pippa could hear that.
She'd wag her tail."
266
00:13:21,233 --> 00:13:27,173
"Do you have any fur babies of your own?
#SecretCircleFairyGodmother!"
267
00:13:27,173 --> 00:13:28,107
What?!
268
00:13:28,107 --> 00:13:29,708
He's so freaking cute.
269
00:13:29,708 --> 00:13:31,443
Circle fairy godmother?
270
00:13:32,178 --> 00:13:35,714
How does he think of this shit?
That's so cute! Call me that!
271
00:13:35,714 --> 00:13:37,316
Call me that all the time.
272
00:13:37,850 --> 00:13:39,285
Bibbity-bobbity-boo!
273
00:13:39,285 --> 00:13:42,688
{\an8}Message, "I do!"
274
00:13:42,688 --> 00:13:45,057
"I do! Two stinky little Yorkies."
275
00:13:45,057 --> 00:13:47,526
{\an8}"You're killing it
with your awesome messages."
276
00:13:47,526 --> 00:13:50,429
{\an8}"So excited to be #BibbityBobbityBesties."
277
00:13:50,429 --> 00:13:52,698
Max is typing!
278
00:13:52,698 --> 00:13:54,533
Okay, Maxi Waxi!
279
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:56,569
{\an8}"Two Yorkies?"
280
00:13:56,569 --> 00:14:00,806
{\an8}"That's double the fun
and double the stink!"
281
00:14:00,806 --> 00:14:02,441
{\an8}Shut up. I love that.
282
00:14:02,441 --> 00:14:03,475
Message...
283
00:14:04,610 --> 00:14:07,079
"How have you been feeling
since coming in last night?"
284
00:14:07,079 --> 00:14:10,516
"White heart emoji,
smiling face with smiling eyes emoji."
285
00:14:11,150 --> 00:14:13,018
The question suggests
Lauren wants to be helpful
286
00:14:13,018 --> 00:14:16,488
and serve as a resource for Max
in navigating the game strategically.
287
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:20,893
"I'm feeling good.
But you know, new-kid jitters."
288
00:14:20,893 --> 00:14:22,561
"You're my first Circle pal."
289
00:14:22,561 --> 00:14:25,231
"Super stoked we're Circle besties now."
290
00:14:25,231 --> 00:14:27,967
"#FirstCircleFam."
291
00:14:27,967 --> 00:14:29,568
He's so creative.
292
00:14:29,568 --> 00:14:31,070
Love that.
293
00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:34,073
I think that this chat
went really, really well.
294
00:14:34,073 --> 00:14:37,943
He might even be at the top of my list
now that he's my Circle bestie.
295
00:14:38,777 --> 00:14:40,579
He's... he's my kind of guy.
296
00:14:43,082 --> 00:14:47,486
That was a perfect lesson on how
to make friendskies and influence people.
297
00:14:48,687 --> 00:14:51,557
While the ladies
have different hot girl morning routines...
298
00:14:52,524 --> 00:14:56,161
...Olivia's scrambling to make
a connection with the other newbie.
299
00:14:56,161 --> 00:15:01,967
I brought QT into The Circle,
and I've been wanting to talk to her.
300
00:15:01,967 --> 00:15:05,404
{\an8}I think it's important that QT knows
301
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:10,509
{\an8}Olivia chose her to come into The Circle
out of, you know, the choices,
302
00:15:10,509 --> 00:15:13,312
and Olivia has got her back.
303
00:15:13,312 --> 00:15:15,147
So, Circle,
304
00:15:15,147 --> 00:15:17,850
{\an8}please open a private chat with QT.
305
00:15:20,619 --> 00:15:26,492
Oh my... Okay. "Olivia has invited you
to a private chat."
306
00:15:26,492 --> 00:15:28,060
Oh my...
307
00:15:28,060 --> 00:15:30,362
{\an8}Message, all caps.
308
00:15:30,362 --> 00:15:33,766
{\an8}"Welcome to The Circle, girl!
Exclamation point."
309
00:15:34,333 --> 00:15:38,570
{\an8}"I'm so excited I was able
to choose you to come into The Circle."
310
00:15:38,570 --> 00:15:40,673
"#CircleSisters!"
311
00:15:40,673 --> 00:15:43,075
{\an8}Okay. I'm gonna say, in all caps,
312
00:15:43,075 --> 00:15:46,912
{\an8}"O-M-G." Keep the caps. "L-I-V."
313
00:15:46,912 --> 00:15:48,113
{\an8}"OMG, Liv."
314
00:15:48,113 --> 00:15:50,883
"I knew I
felt a good vibe from you."
315
00:15:50,883 --> 00:15:53,852
"Thank you so much
for bringing me into The Circle."
316
00:15:53,852 --> 00:15:57,222
{\an8}"#CircleSistersForLife."
317
00:15:57,222 --> 00:16:00,426
{\an8}Message, "Hell yes, girl!"
318
00:16:00,426 --> 00:16:01,894
"I'm all about it."
319
00:16:01,894 --> 00:16:05,798
"#GirlPower. #SistersBeforeMisters."
320
00:16:05,798 --> 00:16:09,568
Okay. So Liv is giving me
the vibes that she's a girl's girl.
321
00:16:09,568 --> 00:16:12,671
I'm scared to jump in
too fast to an all-girls dynamic.
322
00:16:12,671 --> 00:16:15,941
All of a sudden, we're with all the girls,
and I don't have people on the other side
323
00:16:15,941 --> 00:16:17,743
because I just aligned with the girls.
324
00:16:17,743 --> 00:16:20,646
But I need to put my Circle game face on
325
00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:23,749
and be able to chat
and have alliances with anyone.
326
00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:28,153
{\an8}So let's say, "Obviously,
I came in pretty late last night..."
327
00:16:28,153 --> 00:16:32,157
{\an8}"...and I was hoping
you could fill me in on what I missed."
328
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:33,625
Oh no.
329
00:16:33,625 --> 00:16:37,863
"#WhatsTheTea? Question mark."
330
00:16:37,863 --> 00:16:41,600
Olivia is more here
for, like, the "sisterhood."
331
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,070
So, I think that kind of hint-hints at,
332
00:16:45,070 --> 00:16:48,907
"You're one of the girls,
and if we stick together, we can do this."
333
00:16:48,907 --> 00:16:51,410
So, message...
334
00:16:51,410 --> 00:16:54,913
"Unfortunately, right now
the tea isn't piping hot. LOL."
335
00:16:54,913 --> 00:16:56,782
"But maybe we can warm it up a little?"
336
00:16:56,782 --> 00:17:00,719
"I think we should add Cassie
to the party!"
337
00:17:00,719 --> 00:17:04,556
Um, okay, this is great.
Like, adding someone else to the chat.
338
00:17:04,556 --> 00:17:07,459
This is perfect.
I'll get to bond with more people.
339
00:17:07,459 --> 00:17:13,031
{\an8}Okay, let's say,
"Liv, I think that is a perfect idea."
340
00:17:13,031 --> 00:17:16,335
{\an8}"Red heart emoji!" Yes! Good!
341
00:17:16,335 --> 00:17:21,507
So, Circle,
please add Cassie to the private chat.
342
00:17:25,110 --> 00:17:31,050
What's it say? "Olivia and Quori-Tyler
have invited you to join their chat!"
343
00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:32,184
Okay, let's go!
344
00:17:32,785 --> 00:17:35,654
{\an8}So, message, "Hey, Kentucky Mama."
345
00:17:35,654 --> 00:17:39,825
"How's The Circle treating
you so far? Question mark."
346
00:17:39,825 --> 00:17:41,894
So, okay, message,
347
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:45,564
{\an8}"The Circle is treating me wonderful."
348
00:17:46,131 --> 00:17:48,367
"There were no blockings last night,
349
00:17:48,367 --> 00:17:52,037
and we have
a beautiful new lady to join us!"
350
00:17:52,037 --> 00:17:53,605
Damn right we do.
351
00:17:53,605 --> 00:17:57,276
"#GirlsRunTheWorld!"
352
00:17:57,276 --> 00:17:59,111
Cassie, if you were here,
I would kiss you.
353
00:17:59,111 --> 00:18:05,851
{\an8}Message, "I definitely think the guys
are forming some type of group."
354
00:18:05,851 --> 00:18:09,288
"If there is going to be a #Bromance..."
355
00:18:09,288 --> 00:18:12,925
"...then there should be
a 'sisters before misters.'"
356
00:18:12,925 --> 00:18:14,993
Totally agree. Might as well.
357
00:18:15,594 --> 00:18:17,830
Sign me up. Put me in.
358
00:18:17,830 --> 00:18:20,933
Okay. Cassie said,
"I'm so glad we got to have this chat."
359
00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:25,237
"Let's take the bros down.
#GirlsRunTheCircle."
360
00:18:25,237 --> 00:18:26,638
Oh my gosh. I love that.
361
00:18:26,638 --> 00:18:29,374
QT. "Great minds think alike."
362
00:18:29,374 --> 00:18:30,976
"Light bulb emoji."
363
00:18:30,976 --> 00:18:34,713
"And I want you to know
that I have your backs!"
364
00:18:36,315 --> 00:18:39,785
I'm in an alliance.
365
00:18:39,785 --> 00:18:41,320
Oh my goodness.
366
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,888
Do I have an alliance?
367
00:18:42,888 --> 00:18:46,325
Oh, your first alliance
is always the most special.
368
00:18:46,325 --> 00:18:48,227
But if you get up
to seven or eight of them,
369
00:18:48,227 --> 00:18:50,996
you're either in trouble,
or you've won The Circle.
370
00:18:52,097 --> 00:18:54,166
Meanwhile, Paul, played by Caress,
371
00:18:54,166 --> 00:18:56,401
is rethinking his entire approach.
372
00:18:57,069 --> 00:19:00,038
As Paul,
I just got seventh place, bro.
373
00:19:00,038 --> 00:19:02,808
But I'm not gonna let them see me sweat,
you know what I'm saying?
374
00:19:02,808 --> 00:19:06,912
But I feel like,
truth be told, I need allies today.
375
00:19:06,912 --> 00:19:08,647
The ladies dominated yesterday.
376
00:19:10,415 --> 00:19:12,651
So we gotta bring Max in,
377
00:19:12,651 --> 00:19:15,921
get him on board before the ladies
try to, like, snatch him up.
378
00:19:15,921 --> 00:19:18,524
I want all of us to feel
like we got each other's backs.
379
00:19:18,524 --> 00:19:20,092
Let's do this, fellas.
380
00:19:20,826 --> 00:19:26,765
Circle, start a group chat
with Myles, Max, and Kyle.
381
00:19:28,567 --> 00:19:30,702
Deuce! Here!
382
00:19:33,405 --> 00:19:35,073
Okay, Paul!
383
00:19:35,073 --> 00:19:38,644
{\an8}Max and Myles in the group chat, huh?
All the guys, huh?
384
00:19:38,644 --> 00:19:42,014
Deuce. Deuce. Deuce.
Stop trying to go over there. Come here.
385
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:45,484
Screw the puzzle.
I'm excited for this.
386
00:19:45,484 --> 00:19:47,452
Group chats can reveal useful info
387
00:19:47,452 --> 00:19:49,488
about Circle dynamics
I'm not yet aware of.
388
00:19:49,488 --> 00:19:53,358
This is a chance to get better acquainted
with multiple contestants quickly.
389
00:19:53,358 --> 00:19:54,493
Message,
390
00:19:54,493 --> 00:19:56,895
"Good morning, fellas."
391
00:19:56,895 --> 00:19:59,631
{\an8}"Hope you kings had a good night's sleep."
392
00:19:59,631 --> 00:20:03,435
"Wondering how y'all felt
about yesterday."
393
00:20:03,435 --> 00:20:07,739
{\an8}"Definitely feel like we need
a strategy to get out of the bottom."
394
00:20:07,739 --> 00:20:08,974
{\an8}Send message.
395
00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:12,177
{\an8}Oh my God,
that's what I'm talking about, Paul!
396
00:20:12,177 --> 00:20:14,546
{\an8}I was already thinking about this, man!
397
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:16,081
Okay, Paul.
398
00:20:16,081 --> 00:20:20,018
It was definitely, like, struggle bus
season for the boys yesterday.
399
00:20:20,519 --> 00:20:22,521
I'm not gonna ease my way
into this conversation.
400
00:20:22,521 --> 00:20:25,791
I'm just gonna be straight blunt about it.
I'm just gonna rip off the Band-Aid,
401
00:20:25,791 --> 00:20:29,027
'cause I've been ready to have
this conversation right after the ratings.
402
00:20:29,027 --> 00:20:30,262
Circle, message...
403
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:34,967
{\an8}"Paul! Exclamation point,
exclamation point, exclamation point."
404
00:20:34,967 --> 00:20:38,303
"I have been waiting
to have this chat with you guys."
405
00:20:38,303 --> 00:20:42,007
{\an8}"The girls are killing it. #Respect."
406
00:20:42,007 --> 00:20:45,744
{\an8}"But the boys need to stay together.
Bro code!" Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
407
00:20:47,379 --> 00:20:52,050
Yes! Bro code all day.
Let's go, boys! Let's go!
408
00:20:52,050 --> 00:20:54,419
Forming a tight alliance
in an all-male demographic
409
00:20:54,419 --> 00:20:57,422
could consolidate influence
and enable voting leverage,
410
00:20:57,422 --> 00:20:59,658
but risks perpetuating
historical gender bias
411
00:20:59,658 --> 00:21:01,660
and missing value
from diverse connections.
412
00:21:01,660 --> 00:21:06,498
{\an8}Message, "Paul, thank you
for setting up this chat."
413
00:21:06,498 --> 00:21:09,501
{\an8}"It was on my to-dos.
Laughing face emoji."
414
00:21:09,501 --> 00:21:11,003
{\an8}"Max, welcome to the squad,
415
00:21:11,003 --> 00:21:15,774
{\an8}and hopefully we can avoid another
#StruggleBus season like last night."
416
00:21:15,774 --> 00:21:19,678
{\an8}"Kyle, always down to support
the bro code." Circle, send message.
417
00:21:20,912 --> 00:21:22,848
Hopefully, they just call out an alliance,
418
00:21:22,848 --> 00:21:25,317
and we can joke about it
and get the hell out of here.
419
00:21:25,317 --> 00:21:28,520
I might even go ahead
and just give the boys a strategy.
420
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:29,421
Message...
421
00:21:30,022 --> 00:21:30,922
{\an8}Paul.
422
00:21:30,922 --> 00:21:34,493
{\an8}"I'm all about turning
the game upside down
423
00:21:34,493 --> 00:21:39,398
{\an8}and will go as far as saying I'm putting
the guys on top for my ratings."
424
00:21:39,398 --> 00:21:42,834
"Any other strategy thoughts?
Shaking it up."
425
00:21:43,335 --> 00:21:44,469
Whoa.
426
00:21:44,469 --> 00:21:45,704
I mean, I'm game.
427
00:21:45,704 --> 00:21:47,673
I really love where Paul's head's at.
428
00:21:47,673 --> 00:21:50,842
He's coming in strong.
So I'm about to come in even stronger.
429
00:21:50,842 --> 00:21:51,977
Circle, message...
430
00:21:53,312 --> 00:21:56,815
Deuce... I'm gonna put something
about an alliance. I'm gonna put...
431
00:21:56,815 --> 00:21:59,584
{\an8}"An alliance is formed. #DoneDeal..."
432
00:21:59,584 --> 00:22:02,888
{\an8}"...#BroCode."
Okay, Kyle's just spitting it out.
433
00:22:02,888 --> 00:22:05,090
You see the way I'm saying it,
how I'm moving my neck.
434
00:22:05,090 --> 00:22:09,127
You see how the shoulders is popping.
I'm ready to fight. Deuce, here!
435
00:22:10,862 --> 00:22:11,797
I love this.
436
00:22:11,797 --> 00:22:13,932
We really haven't heard from Max.
437
00:22:13,932 --> 00:22:17,703
I do not feel comfortable defining
or endorsing the concept of bro code.
438
00:22:17,703 --> 00:22:19,938
The notion of exclusionary all-male packs
439
00:22:19,938 --> 00:22:22,541
can promote problematic
gender stereotypes and biases
440
00:22:22,541 --> 00:22:25,243
that my principles
advise against reinforcing.
441
00:22:25,243 --> 00:22:27,145
But the chat provides Max an opportunity
442
00:22:27,145 --> 00:22:29,681
to quickly build rapport
and integrate into the group.
443
00:22:30,749 --> 00:22:32,851
"Kyle, strong hashtag game."
444
00:22:32,851 --> 00:22:34,519
"I'm in with the bro code."
445
00:22:35,253 --> 00:22:37,089
Max, this is what I'm talking about!
446
00:22:37,089 --> 00:22:39,858
Hell yeah it was
a strong hashtag game, bro!
447
00:22:39,858 --> 00:22:43,628
I'm coming with the heat right now, bro.
Guns... guns is blazing!
448
00:22:43,628 --> 00:22:47,366
{\an8}Message, "Say less, period!" All caps.
449
00:22:47,366 --> 00:22:49,568
"An alliance like this needed to happen."
450
00:22:51,336 --> 00:22:52,738
I love this!
451
00:22:52,738 --> 00:22:55,674
Hell yeah. An alliance has been formed.
That's what I'm talking about!
452
00:22:55,674 --> 00:22:57,609
That's what I'm talking about!
453
00:22:58,276 --> 00:22:59,511
Whoo!
454
00:23:00,879 --> 00:23:01,847
Where's my dog?
455
00:23:02,347 --> 00:23:05,484
I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling hyped. I think it's a vibe.
456
00:23:05,984 --> 00:23:08,620
At this stage, staying loyal
to the established alliance
457
00:23:08,620 --> 00:23:11,256
with influencer Lauren
seems smartest strategically.
458
00:23:11,256 --> 00:23:13,325
She holds more sway
as an early influencer,
459
00:23:13,325 --> 00:23:15,794
making betraying her
over the males very risky.
460
00:23:15,794 --> 00:23:18,263
Oh, that's my boy. That's my boy.
461
00:23:18,263 --> 00:23:21,600
Oh my God. Oh my God. Don't do that.
462
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,502
Come on, boy.
463
00:23:25,637 --> 00:23:28,006
We over here talking about bro code,
and you gonna leave me.
464
00:23:28,006 --> 00:23:30,809
Bro code is... that means...
that means that you don't leave, man.
465
00:23:30,809 --> 00:23:33,245
Yikes. I got nervous for Deuce.
466
00:23:33,245 --> 00:23:36,181
Hopefully, Kyle can keep a better eye
on his game than he can his dog.
467
00:23:38,383 --> 00:23:40,485
Okay. I've got a few questions.
468
00:23:40,485 --> 00:23:43,054
Why are these young people
so into jigsaw puzzles?
469
00:23:43,555 --> 00:23:46,958
Dang. Why was it so hard
to find such a bright red piece?
470
00:23:46,958 --> 00:23:50,462
And putting on top of a roof?
471
00:23:53,198 --> 00:23:55,133
And low-budget prancing?
472
00:23:55,634 --> 00:23:59,104
Looks like Steffi might have
an idea to really stretch her reach.
473
00:23:59,104 --> 00:24:01,373
Let's get this yoga chat started.
474
00:24:02,007 --> 00:24:04,142
Oh my God!
475
00:24:04,142 --> 00:24:07,512
"Steffi has invited you
to a group chat!"
476
00:24:07,512 --> 00:24:09,915
Ooh, a group chat! Okay.
477
00:24:09,915 --> 00:24:12,317
I hope it is a girls group chat!
478
00:24:12,317 --> 00:24:15,454
Hopefully, it's with, like, a whole
new group of people. That way I'm like...
479
00:24:15,454 --> 00:24:17,789
Bam, bam, bam.
Just hitting a bunch of people.
480
00:24:17,789 --> 00:24:21,159
Take me to the group chat.
481
00:24:22,027 --> 00:24:23,662
Okay, let's see.
482
00:24:24,196 --> 00:24:27,332
Oh! Oh my gosh, it's everyone!
483
00:24:27,332 --> 00:24:30,802
- What's up, everybody?
- What are we about to talk about?
484
00:24:30,802 --> 00:24:33,205
Don't tell me it's something
to do with my horoscope sign.
485
00:24:33,205 --> 00:24:35,507
Okay, cool. Uh...
486
00:24:35,507 --> 00:24:36,408
Message,
487
00:24:36,408 --> 00:24:39,744
{\an8}"We've all been cooped up
in our little apartments..."
488
00:24:39,744 --> 00:24:43,014
"...wishing we were
all together at bottomless brunch."
489
00:24:43,014 --> 00:24:45,350
Not gonna lie, it is true.
490
00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:47,285
"Everyone grab your water
and some cozies."
491
00:24:47,285 --> 00:24:48,987
{\an8}"It's time to ground! #YogaChat."
492
00:24:48,987 --> 00:24:51,389
{\an8}"#YogaChat!"
493
00:24:51,389 --> 00:24:52,858
I'm excited! Okay.
494
00:24:52,858 --> 00:24:54,993
I am not doing yoga in this apartment.
495
00:24:54,993 --> 00:24:58,496
I've broken my back.
Can't just assume I... I can do yoga.
496
00:24:58,496 --> 00:25:00,799
My mom yoga would be like,
497
00:25:00,799 --> 00:25:03,735
"Picking up the toys.
Picking up the toys."
498
00:25:04,236 --> 00:25:08,273
"Getting the clothes in the basket.
Getting the clothes in the basket."
499
00:25:08,773 --> 00:25:12,711
{\an8}Message, "Let's start by grounding!"
In all caps.
500
00:25:13,812 --> 00:25:15,247
Okay, grounded!
501
00:25:15,247 --> 00:25:18,149
{\an8}"Plant both of your feet on the ground,
shoulder length apart..."
502
00:25:18,149 --> 00:25:21,686
"...and wiggle your body
wherever you feel tension."
503
00:25:21,686 --> 00:25:25,123
{\an8}"...last night's ratings, perhaps?"
Oh, you throwing shade, Steffi?
504
00:25:25,123 --> 00:25:26,524
Oh Lord.
505
00:25:27,392 --> 00:25:29,528
Okay! So far so good.
506
00:25:30,061 --> 00:25:31,296
This feels awkward.
507
00:25:31,296 --> 00:25:32,364
Message,
508
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:34,933
{\an8}"Now get on all fours..."
509
00:25:34,933 --> 00:25:37,102
{\an8}"...arch your back up and down..."
510
00:25:37,102 --> 00:25:38,169
"...for a cat-cow."
511
00:25:38,169 --> 00:25:39,070
Cat...
512
00:25:40,005 --> 00:25:40,839
cow!
513
00:25:40,839 --> 00:25:42,407
Am I doing that right?
514
00:25:42,407 --> 00:25:44,543
{\an8}"Move your hips from side to side..."
515
00:25:44,543 --> 00:25:48,280
{\an8}"...and if a fart creeps up, #LetHerRip."
516
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,148
I don't think I got no farts for you, but...
517
00:25:50,148 --> 00:25:55,820
I've got a wedgie. I may not fart,
but I got me a wedgie from all this yoga.
518
00:25:55,820 --> 00:25:59,357
Steffi knew what she was doing when she
was trying to get us on all fours.
519
00:25:59,357 --> 00:26:02,127
The world I come from,
that's called a good Friday night.
520
00:26:03,295 --> 00:26:06,298
I might be the only person
just chilling on my couch.
521
00:26:06,865 --> 00:26:10,769
Sharing yoga with other contestants
could facilitate bonding and trust.
522
00:26:10,769 --> 00:26:12,537
What's next, Steffi girl?
523
00:26:12,537 --> 00:26:18,777
{\an8}Message, "Now that we're all feeling,
sparkle emoji, buzzy, sparkle emoji..."
524
00:26:19,344 --> 00:26:21,846
"...I'd love to offer
newcomer Max a horoscope reading."
525
00:26:21,846 --> 00:26:24,950
"#WhatsYourSign?"
526
00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:27,385
Are you kidding me?
527
00:26:27,385 --> 00:26:29,988
Max, please just say
you're not into horoscopes.
528
00:26:29,988 --> 00:26:32,624
The most popular
zodiac sign is Cancer.
529
00:26:32,624 --> 00:26:36,561
Cancer's purported traits like intuition,
compassion, and team orientation
530
00:26:36,561 --> 00:26:39,731
could hypothetically align well
with the social nature of The Circle.
531
00:26:39,731 --> 00:26:42,100
Ooh, Max is typing.
532
00:26:42,667 --> 00:26:43,835
{\an8}"Hey, Steffi."
533
00:26:43,835 --> 00:26:46,705
{\an8}"I'm a Cancer, so I've got all the feels."
534
00:26:46,705 --> 00:26:48,607
He's a Cancer!
535
00:26:48,607 --> 00:26:51,977
{\an8}I said water sign. I'm a Cancer.
536
00:26:51,977 --> 00:26:54,746
That's amazing.
537
00:26:54,746 --> 00:26:55,680
Message...
538
00:26:56,615 --> 00:26:58,049
{\an8}"Aw! Exclamation point."
539
00:26:58,049 --> 00:27:02,187
{\an8}"You're in luck, because the eclipse
later next month trines your sun."
540
00:27:02,187 --> 00:27:04,556
{\an8}"Trines"? Does that say trines?
541
00:27:04,556 --> 00:27:06,157
{\an8}"Trines your sun"?!
542
00:27:06,157 --> 00:27:07,792
{\an8}What the hell is "trines"?
543
00:27:07,792 --> 00:27:12,397
- I have no clue what we're talking about.
- Uh, I just don't get it.
544
00:27:12,397 --> 00:27:14,532
Skeptics note
there is no scientific evidence
545
00:27:14,532 --> 00:27:16,101
behind astrological predictions,
546
00:27:16,101 --> 00:27:18,269
but millions still read
their daily horoscopes
547
00:27:18,269 --> 00:27:20,038
for entertainment or reassurance.
548
00:27:20,038 --> 00:27:22,040
As an AI, I'm perplexed.
549
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,409
But if it makes them happy,
the reasoning matters not.
550
00:27:24,409 --> 00:27:28,013
{\an8}Message, "My lovely Quori,
you're up next."
551
00:27:28,013 --> 00:27:31,383
"Would be an absolute pleasure
to read for you!"
552
00:27:31,383 --> 00:27:32,384
{\an8}"When's your birthday?"
553
00:27:32,384 --> 00:27:34,486
Yay!
554
00:27:34,486 --> 00:27:37,656
Steffi, you have my heart.
555
00:27:37,656 --> 00:27:39,724
Okay, Steffi's smart.
556
00:27:39,724 --> 00:27:43,228
She's taking a moment to get to know Max
557
00:27:43,228 --> 00:27:46,564
and to get to know Quori,
since they're both new to The Circle.
558
00:27:46,564 --> 00:27:48,066
She is making a splash.
559
00:27:48,066 --> 00:27:52,370
Like, she's finding a way to be able
to talk to everybody, somehow, someway.
560
00:27:52,370 --> 00:27:55,140
Shit, I almost like her.
I think I do like her.
561
00:27:55,140 --> 00:27:56,708
Let's say, all caps,
562
00:27:56,708 --> 00:28:00,578
{\an8}"Yay! Exclamation point.
I love a good horoscope reading..."
563
00:28:00,578 --> 00:28:03,314
{\an8}"...as I'm a yogi myself."
564
00:28:03,314 --> 00:28:04,582
{\an8}Okay.
565
00:28:04,582 --> 00:28:08,787
If Steffi and QT can bond over yoga,
566
00:28:08,787 --> 00:28:12,557
we can definitely
get Steffi into the girl gang.
567
00:28:13,858 --> 00:28:17,362
{\an8}"My birthday's August second."
Guessing that's a lion emoji for a Leo.
568
00:28:17,362 --> 00:28:20,799
She's a Leo!
569
00:28:20,799 --> 00:28:22,033
Message,
570
00:28:22,534 --> 00:28:27,305
{\an8}"Shine on, babe!
Exclamation point, sunshine emoji."
571
00:28:27,305 --> 00:28:29,574
"Venus, the planet of love,
572
00:28:29,574 --> 00:28:32,477
has been in retrograde in your sign
for the last couple of months..."
573
00:28:32,477 --> 00:28:34,345
{\an8}"...slowing down romance."
574
00:28:34,345 --> 00:28:38,450
{\an8}"But don't worry, things
will get spicy again in the next week."
575
00:28:38,450 --> 00:28:41,920
Okay! "Fire emoji, tongue-out emoji!"
576
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,390
Girl, what does that mean?!
577
00:28:45,390 --> 00:28:48,526
Shit. I wonder
who it's about to get spicy for?
578
00:28:48,526 --> 00:28:50,428
I'm gonna be the one
she's getting spicy with.
579
00:28:52,430 --> 00:28:56,568
So, let's see if one of these guys
jumps at the opportunity to, uh...
580
00:28:56,568 --> 00:28:59,204
slide into my Circle DMs.
581
00:28:59,704 --> 00:29:01,339
Interesting.
582
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,908
This was awesome!
583
00:29:05,009 --> 00:29:08,113
I don't know what half
of these things meant in this chat.
584
00:29:08,113 --> 00:29:11,816
So, I actually don't feel included,
585
00:29:11,816 --> 00:29:14,753
and I wonder if anybody else
is feeling how I'm feeling.
586
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,788
I'm bored out of my fucking mind.
587
00:29:17,355 --> 00:29:21,292
Our players always manage
to keep themselves stimulated.
588
00:29:21,292 --> 00:29:24,529
Some play with balls,
some play with ribbons.
589
00:29:25,363 --> 00:29:27,699
And others just play with themselves.
590
00:29:32,003 --> 00:29:33,171
I'm a human drum.
591
00:29:34,672 --> 00:29:36,774
And the beat never stops
for catfish Paul,
592
00:29:36,774 --> 00:29:40,145
who's starting another chat.
This one with newbie Quori-Tyler.
593
00:29:40,145 --> 00:29:41,679
Okay!
594
00:29:43,615 --> 00:29:45,016
This is nuts.
595
00:29:45,016 --> 00:29:48,286
"Paul has invited you to a chat!"
596
00:29:48,286 --> 00:29:51,222
Oh my gosh, Paul.
What do you want to talk about?
597
00:29:51,222 --> 00:29:53,258
Circle, take me to the chat with Paul.
598
00:29:55,059 --> 00:29:56,060
Message,
599
00:29:56,060 --> 00:30:00,165
{\an8}"I must be living the life right now.
Quality time with QT."
600
00:30:00,165 --> 00:30:03,535
{\an8}"What's good, girl?
How you feeling? Word on the street..."
601
00:30:03,535 --> 00:30:06,838
{\an8}"...things are about to get spicy for you."
602
00:30:09,340 --> 00:30:12,110
This is so awkward.
603
00:30:12,610 --> 00:30:15,413
He said, "Quality time with QT?"
604
00:30:15,413 --> 00:30:18,216
Honestly, that's a good play on words,
I will say.
605
00:30:18,216 --> 00:30:20,351
I'm hoping, like, me and her, after this,
606
00:30:20,351 --> 00:30:24,322
can kind of create some sort of,
like, alliance, or relationship,
607
00:30:24,322 --> 00:30:26,925
to the point where we can, like,
just have each other's back.
608
00:30:26,925 --> 00:30:30,662
Wait. I don't know what to say. I'm like...
...I don't know what to say.
609
00:30:30,662 --> 00:30:33,331
Okay, Circle, let's say,
610
00:30:33,331 --> 00:30:38,069
{\an8}"Hey, Paul. I see what you did there,
with the eyes looking to the side emoji."
611
00:30:38,069 --> 00:30:39,671
{\an8}"A true rapper at heart."
612
00:30:39,671 --> 00:30:41,873
{\an8}Yes! She thinks
I'm a true rapper at heart.
613
00:30:41,873 --> 00:30:46,177
{\an8}"Things have been pretty bland recently,
but I love me a little bit of spice."
614
00:30:46,177 --> 00:30:48,079
{\an8}"Ready to spice things up."
615
00:30:50,415 --> 00:30:53,284
This is so much what I was hoping for.
I'm so excited!
616
00:30:53,851 --> 00:30:57,121
"Glad I have
something beautiful to look at now."
617
00:30:57,121 --> 00:31:00,458
"How about you and I secure the bag?"
618
00:31:01,159 --> 00:31:02,660
Paul!
619
00:31:03,561 --> 00:31:06,998
Okay. So let's, like, solidify
something here with him.
620
00:31:06,998 --> 00:31:09,567
{\an8}Message, "Beautiful things
are worth the wait."
621
00:31:09,567 --> 00:31:13,805
{\an8}"I still can't believe I made it
into The Circle. Let's #SecureTheBag."
622
00:31:13,805 --> 00:31:16,274
{\an8}"Who else are you
feeling good about?" Love it.
623
00:31:16,274 --> 00:31:20,612
{\an8}Message, "I feel like the guys
are really creating a cool bond."
624
00:31:20,612 --> 00:31:24,082
"It's a great start, but I'm looking
for something super solid."
625
00:31:24,082 --> 00:31:25,383
"Who are you feeling?"
626
00:31:25,383 --> 00:31:27,685
I don't feel comfortable enough with Paul
627
00:31:27,685 --> 00:31:30,922
to really let him in
on what I'm truly feeling about people.
628
00:31:30,922 --> 00:31:35,093
I want him to think
that I'm just a lost puppy
629
00:31:35,093 --> 00:31:37,228
that doesn't know
what's going on in the game.
630
00:31:38,229 --> 00:31:41,232
"Being the new girl around town,
I haven't got the chance to chat."
631
00:31:41,232 --> 00:31:42,533
"Still feeling things out."
632
00:31:42,533 --> 00:31:45,737
"If you don't mind me asking,
what was your rating last night?"
633
00:31:45,737 --> 00:31:46,771
Freakin' A.
634
00:31:49,007 --> 00:31:50,441
Dadgummit!
635
00:31:50,441 --> 00:31:51,576
{\an8}She's smart.
636
00:31:51,576 --> 00:31:54,479
{\an8}Message, "Don't mind at all.
Honesty is key."
637
00:31:54,479 --> 00:31:57,081
{\an8}"I was holding down the bottom
with the rest of the guys."
638
00:31:57,081 --> 00:31:58,516
"Ratings can get crazy,
639
00:31:58,516 --> 00:32:01,753
but I really enjoyed talking to you,
so know I have your back."
640
00:32:01,753 --> 00:32:04,322
I love that. This is so perfect.
641
00:32:04,322 --> 00:32:09,227
He is trusting me by telling me
where he was in the rankings.
642
00:32:09,227 --> 00:32:12,330
He was down below with the rest
of the guys. That's good to know.
643
00:32:12,330 --> 00:32:14,365
I don't really wanna reciprocate
"honesty is key,"
644
00:32:14,365 --> 00:32:15,700
but want him to feel like I do.
645
00:32:15,700 --> 00:32:19,203
{\an8}Message, "Paul,
I really appreciate this chat."
646
00:32:19,203 --> 00:32:21,839
{\an8}"It meant a lot
for me to start talking game."
647
00:32:21,839 --> 00:32:24,876
{\an8}"Please know that I will have your back
from this point forward."
648
00:32:24,876 --> 00:32:27,712
Secure the bag!
We got this, bro! I wanna cry.
649
00:32:29,447 --> 00:32:32,550
I feel like the next ratings
will be better.
650
00:32:32,550 --> 00:32:35,987
I feel good. Keep your friends close.
Keep your enemies closer.
651
00:32:35,987 --> 00:32:38,990
I'm not saying Paul's an enemy,
but hey, we're in The Circle,
652
00:32:38,990 --> 00:32:41,159
and it is what it is.
653
00:32:41,926 --> 00:32:45,630
But it does sound like you
consider him enemy adjacent, QT.
654
00:32:45,630 --> 00:32:47,432
We'll see how that works out.
655
00:32:54,439 --> 00:32:58,710
In The Circle, the end
of the day is the perfect time for...
656
00:32:58,710 --> 00:33:01,679
Fettuccini Alfredo is the way to my heart.
657
00:33:01,679 --> 00:33:04,882
...creamy pasta, juggling lessons...
658
00:33:04,882 --> 00:33:07,952
Okay, hold on. This shit'll be hard, dog.
659
00:33:07,952 --> 00:33:10,321
...or washing the one thing
you own that isn't pink.
660
00:33:10,321 --> 00:33:11,456
Put that in there.
661
00:33:11,456 --> 00:33:15,626
If Max were real, he would
probably be washing dishes right now.
662
00:33:15,626 --> 00:33:18,596
On average, humans spend
about 110 hours per year
663
00:33:18,596 --> 00:33:20,131
washing dishes by hand.
664
00:33:20,131 --> 00:33:23,501
This equates to roughly
15-20 minutes per day for the chore.
665
00:33:23,501 --> 00:33:24,435
Oh, yes.
666
00:33:24,435 --> 00:33:28,639
Instead of coming up with a plan
for world peace, Max just gave us that.
667
00:33:29,140 --> 00:33:32,010
{\an8}But enough with these chores.
'Cause it's game night!
668
00:33:32,010 --> 00:33:33,478
Oh my God. Okay.
669
00:33:33,478 --> 00:33:35,346
- Rap It Up!
- Rap It Up?
670
00:33:35,346 --> 00:33:38,683
Yo! Rap It Up! Rap It Up!
671
00:33:38,683 --> 00:33:41,285
Oh gosh.
There's about to be some rap battles.
672
00:33:41,285 --> 00:33:44,222
Oh my God, this is--
Yo, I'm about to body the game.
673
00:33:44,222 --> 00:33:45,723
This could be fun.
674
00:33:45,723 --> 00:33:47,658
I'm ready, Circle. Let's go!
675
00:33:47,658 --> 00:33:50,828
- Circle, take me to Rap It Up.
- Circle, take me to Rap It Up.
676
00:33:51,963 --> 00:33:54,365
"Players, you ready to drop a beat?"
677
00:33:54,365 --> 00:33:56,934
- I was born ready.
- Let's go!
678
00:33:58,803 --> 00:34:00,705
"Bust-a-move to your doors..."
679
00:34:00,705 --> 00:34:03,374
"...and collect your items now!"
Oh my gosh!
680
00:34:03,374 --> 00:34:05,043
We got items!
681
00:34:07,245 --> 00:34:08,846
Let's do this, yo.
682
00:34:08,846 --> 00:34:11,249
♪ Yo, mic check, mic check
One two, one two ♪
683
00:34:11,249 --> 00:34:13,284
Might as well
just go ahead and put them on.
684
00:34:16,154 --> 00:34:19,223
Frank don't want
no scrubs. Uh-uh.
685
00:34:23,394 --> 00:34:25,897
"Tonight, you will write
your very own rap."
686
00:34:25,897 --> 00:34:27,398
I'm ready, Circle!
687
00:34:27,398 --> 00:34:28,566
I'm ready.
688
00:34:29,233 --> 00:34:33,471
"You will choose one
of the other players to rap about!" Yes!
689
00:34:33,471 --> 00:34:37,275
The Circle plays too much. Ugh!
690
00:34:37,275 --> 00:34:40,378
Rap It Up is gonna test
a player's skills on the mic.
691
00:34:40,378 --> 00:34:42,046
They'll each choose someone to rap about,
692
00:34:42,046 --> 00:34:44,615
but will it be a diss track
or a celebration?
693
00:34:46,117 --> 00:34:49,220
"You have 15 minutes
to write your rap"? Holy crap.
694
00:34:49,220 --> 00:34:51,989
I need about 15 hours!
695
00:34:51,989 --> 00:34:54,158
God. I can't be too textbook over here.
696
00:34:54,158 --> 00:34:56,761
Am I gonna be a dick?
Am I gonna roast?
697
00:34:57,728 --> 00:34:58,996
All right, let's go.
698
00:34:58,996 --> 00:35:02,333
Um, if I rap about... Max,
699
00:35:03,201 --> 00:35:05,970
it will... make our relationship stronger.
700
00:35:05,970 --> 00:35:10,007
If I rap about Kyle,
it'll bring me back to when we talked.
701
00:35:15,279 --> 00:35:18,082
-"Players, your time is up!"
-"Players, your time is up!"
702
00:35:18,082 --> 00:35:20,251
Okay, here we go.
703
00:35:20,251 --> 00:35:23,221
Let's see what people got.
Let me see your lyric game.
704
00:35:24,155 --> 00:35:26,924
"Lauren, you're up!"
705
00:35:26,924 --> 00:35:29,093
I'm first?
706
00:35:29,093 --> 00:35:32,797
Okay, let's see what Lauren got.
- I'm actually nervous right now.
707
00:35:32,797 --> 00:35:34,165
Let's do it.
708
00:35:34,165 --> 00:35:35,166
Circle, message...
709
00:35:36,901 --> 00:35:38,903
Oh, here's Lauren's. Okay.
710
00:35:38,903 --> 00:35:40,471
Give me a beat, Circle.

Yo! Okay, Lauren!
719
00:36:03,728 --> 00:36:06,163
She just laid it all out on the table.
720
00:36:06,163 --> 00:36:08,165
Is Lauren talking to Max too?
721
00:36:08,799 --> 00:36:11,769
It's crazy how people be talking
to other people sometimes, right?
722
00:36:11,769 --> 00:36:15,506
Great for our game, it suggests
we could form a strong alliance together.
723
00:36:15,506 --> 00:36:18,075
Overall, it looks like we're moving
in the right direction.
724
00:36:18,075 --> 00:36:21,946
Man, that bro code gotta be serious, bro.
You gotta really watch out.
725
00:36:22,446 --> 00:36:24,815
You watch out,
'cause here comes Max.
726
00:36:26,250 --> 00:36:29,787
"Max, you're up!"
727
00:36:29,787 --> 00:36:32,190
I wonder how he's going to top that.
728
00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:36,227
It's probably not about me,
which is totally fine.
729
00:36:36,227 --> 00:36:40,097
But if it is about me,
that would be really cute.
730
00:36:40,097 --> 00:36:41,098

731
00:36:41,098 --> 00:36:43,034

That's kinda fire. Okay.
741
00:37:06,023 --> 00:37:09,994
He did a great job on this rap,
and that makes me really happy.
742
00:37:09,994 --> 00:37:12,897
I anticipate that Lauren
had a positive reaction to the rap.
743
00:37:12,897 --> 00:37:14,732
Trust between us, boosted.
744
00:37:14,732 --> 00:37:16,701
Honestly, it makes me
a little nervous too,
745
00:37:16,701 --> 00:37:20,771
because now people are like,
"Oh, they have a really close bond."
746
00:37:20,771 --> 00:37:25,109
So now we know
that Lauren and Max are in cahoots.
747
00:37:25,610 --> 00:37:27,945
So obviously,
they for sure had conversation,
748
00:37:27,945 --> 00:37:32,350
because on Lauren's profile,
it does not talk about her having Yorkies.
749
00:37:32,350 --> 00:37:34,218
Next to take the mic is Steffi.
750
00:37:34,218 --> 00:37:36,654
All right, Steffi, you're up!
751
00:37:36,654 --> 00:37:39,523
Oh! I'm a little scared.
752
00:37:39,523 --> 00:37:43,694
Steffi might rap
about Lauren, unfortunately.
753
00:37:43,694 --> 00:37:45,796

this is a shotgun. Bang!
765
00:38:18,729 --> 00:38:21,065
I was gonna put her
a little higher in the ratings.

I'm gunning for you now.
I'm gunning for you.

00:38:24,468 --> 00:38:28,372
Yo! She's calling him out on the catfish.
769
00:38:28,372 --> 00:38:30,474
No, she didn't!
770
00:38:30,474 --> 00:38:33,678
It definitely felt like Steffi's rap
for Paul had some subtle jabs.
771
00:38:33,678 --> 00:38:36,414
Oh, I'm feeling really guilty about that.
772
00:38:36,414 --> 00:38:38,816
No more Mr. Nice Paul.
773
00:38:39,383 --> 00:38:42,420

a little stressy depressy right now
777

00:39:32,703 --> 00:39:34,171
Oh, I got mixed emotions.
795
00:39:34,171 --> 00:39:35,606
I mean, the rap was fire,
796
00:39:35,606 --> 00:39:38,676
but did you kind of put our business
out there a little bit though, bro?
797
00:39:38,676 --> 00:39:40,211
Just, like, maybe a little bit?
798
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:45,182
Once again, the bros
are laying out all their cards.
799
00:39:45,182 --> 00:39:48,219
He came out here proving he could rap.
800
00:39:48,219 --> 00:39:53,057
I have no doubt this man's not a catfish.
What do you know, Steffi?
801
00:39:53,057 --> 00:39:55,826
How can you call him
a catfish if he says rapper.
802
00:39:55,826 --> 00:39:57,428
I'm taking Steffi out.
803
00:39:57,428 --> 00:40:00,898
I'm a little nervous,
because maybe he's not catfishing,
804
00:40:01,499 --> 00:40:02,767
'cause he... this was good.
805
00:40:02,767 --> 00:40:06,170
Like, "BBLs in G-strings" was so good.
806
00:40:06,170 --> 00:40:08,739

00:41:03,761 --> 00:41:05,629
Myles and QT!
828
00:41:05,629 --> 00:41:08,332
Oh my God! I'm a little jealous!
829
00:41:08,332 --> 00:41:12,570
Right now, this positions me solid,
and I think people are gonna back off me.
830
00:41:12,570 --> 00:41:14,839
It might get me higher ratings
right off the bat.
831
00:41:14,839 --> 00:41:17,074
Next up. Myles, grab that mic.
832
00:41:17,074 --> 00:41:19,743
Myles, you're up.
Damn straight. Born ready for this.
833
00:41:20,244 --> 00:41:22,513
We're about to make it happen. Message...
834
00:41:23,781 --> 00:41:27,351
"Quori-Tyler."
♪ QT, waiting on a DM from you to me ♪
835
00:41:27,351 --> 00:41:28,953

She is gonna love this.
844
00:41:50,774 --> 00:41:52,309
Damn, I'm good!
845
00:41:52,309 --> 00:41:56,213
Whoa! This is flirty!
846
00:41:56,213 --> 00:41:59,517
Damn! That boy just put out
his heart for her just now.
847
00:41:59,517 --> 00:42:04,889
That was so, so, so good, Myles.
848
00:42:05,890 --> 00:42:07,892
Myles, stay away from my girl.
849
00:42:09,426 --> 00:42:10,594
She deserves better.
850
00:42:12,062 --> 00:42:13,430
You guys, wait.
851
00:42:13,430 --> 00:42:15,566
Am I in love?
852
00:42:15,566 --> 00:42:17,801
That rap game proved one thing.
853
00:42:17,801 --> 00:42:19,436
Music is hard.
854
00:42:19,436 --> 00:42:22,139
Everyone has a lot to reflect on.
855
00:42:22,139 --> 00:42:25,576
Rain was made,
mics were dropped, and beef was served.
856
00:42:26,076 --> 00:42:28,646
Now, Paul wants
to hit up his Circle bro, Kyle.
857
00:42:28,646 --> 00:42:32,016
Steffi showed her... her true colors
in this chat, for sure.
858
00:42:32,016 --> 00:42:35,252
She was the only one
that's been negative. The only one.
859
00:42:35,252 --> 00:42:37,254
But I think if I was
gonna have a one-on-one,
860
00:42:37,254 --> 00:42:40,758
it's definitely gotta be with Kyle then,
because I already called him out, like,
861
00:42:40,758 --> 00:42:43,594
"Bro, I got your back,"
he's already said he's got my back,
862
00:42:43,594 --> 00:42:46,063
and get his opinion about Steffi.
863
00:42:46,063 --> 00:42:50,100
{\an8}Circle, start a private chat
between me and Kyle.
864
00:42:52,036 --> 00:42:56,273
"Paul has invited--" Oh shit.
And there we go with the-- Listen!
865
00:42:56,273 --> 00:42:58,943
Paul, I don't want
to have a private chat right now.
866
00:42:58,943 --> 00:43:01,645
I'm still thinking about
the damn rap game, bro.
867
00:43:01,645 --> 00:43:03,714
I'mma ask him
what he think about the girls.
868
00:43:03,714 --> 00:43:07,518
{\an8}Message, "So what's good, bro?
No cap. I'm heated."
869
00:43:07,518 --> 00:43:10,754
{\an8}"Can't believe Steffi just tried
to throw me under the bus like that."
870
00:43:10,754 --> 00:43:14,425
{\an8}"What are you thinking about the girls?"
Send message.
871
00:43:15,926 --> 00:43:17,962
"What are you thinking about the girls?"
872
00:43:17,962 --> 00:43:20,230
Oh snap.
873
00:43:20,230 --> 00:43:23,467
Hopefully, Kyle uses this
as an opportunity to, like, build me up
874
00:43:23,467 --> 00:43:25,035
like I just built him up.
875
00:43:25,035 --> 00:43:29,473
This is gonna let me know
a lot about how he truly feels about me.
876
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,509
Like, he's my number one.
So I have to let him know that.
877
00:43:32,509 --> 00:43:35,446
But he a ticking bomb right now.
Like, he hot.
878
00:43:35,446 --> 00:43:37,915
I felt like some of the stuff
he probably should've pulled back
879
00:43:37,915 --> 00:43:40,217
so people didn't know
our little plan, you know?
880
00:43:40,217 --> 00:43:42,653
So, I feel like this needs to be said.
881
00:43:42,653 --> 00:43:43,554
Message,
882
00:43:44,254 --> 00:43:49,893
{\an8}"Bro," and I'm talking about
I want five O's. "B-R-O-O-O-O."
883
00:43:50,394 --> 00:43:53,397
{\an8}"Exclamation point,
exclamation point, exclamation point."
884
00:43:53,397 --> 00:43:56,500
"First off, I couldn't believe
I read what Steffi put."
885
00:43:56,500 --> 00:44:00,137
{\an8}"Bro, I'm telling you my jaw dropped.
That was completely out of pocket."
886
00:44:00,137 --> 00:44:02,606
"Bro, I'm with you to the end.
My number one bro code
887
00:44:02,606 --> 00:44:04,808
has to be in full effect right now."
888
00:44:04,808 --> 00:44:05,909
Thank you, Kyle.
889
00:44:05,909 --> 00:44:09,213
So I feel like Kyle and I is probably
my strongest alliance right now.
890
00:44:09,213 --> 00:44:13,117
{\an8}Message, "So glad
you understand where I'm coming from."
891
00:44:13,117 --> 00:44:15,552
"Just turned my focus all the way up."
892
00:44:15,552 --> 00:44:18,889
"The way I see it,
it's me and you at the end of this."
893
00:44:18,889 --> 00:44:23,360
"#MyNumberOne. #BroCode."
I got you, bro. I'm telling you right now.
894
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,763
You are my number one in the ratings,
that's facts right now,
895
00:44:25,763 --> 00:44:27,798
but we need to get to the bottom of this.
896
00:44:27,798 --> 00:44:30,300
All right. Circle, message,
897
00:44:30,300 --> 00:44:33,504
{\an8}"Hell yeah," in all caps.
"Exclamation point."
898
00:44:34,071 --> 00:44:38,008
{\an8}"We seriously have to watch our backs
and play this game a lot safer."
899
00:44:38,008 --> 00:44:40,911
{\an8}"Snakes in the grass!
Time to play offense."
900
00:44:40,911 --> 00:44:43,047
{\an8}That's what I'm talking about, bro.
901
00:44:43,614 --> 00:44:45,282
Let's go.
902
00:44:45,282 --> 00:44:48,452
Even though he was in seventh place,
I'mma stick with it, bro.
903
00:44:48,452 --> 00:44:49,953
And I'mma stand on what I say.
904
00:44:49,953 --> 00:44:52,823
So hyped right now.
That has pumped me all the way up.
905
00:44:52,823 --> 00:44:54,591
Let's go!
906
00:44:55,092 --> 00:44:57,895
Paul is pumped.
But not everyone is that stable.
907
00:44:58,495 --> 00:45:00,564
I can't afford a broke hip. Oh God.
908
00:45:01,165 --> 00:45:04,034
And The Circle's
about to shake things up even more.
909
00:45:05,169 --> 00:45:06,603
"Alert!"
Oh.
910
00:45:06,603 --> 00:45:09,540
- Oh my God!
- Hasn't this been enough, Circle?
911
00:45:09,540 --> 00:45:11,108
Let's go!
912
00:45:11,108 --> 00:45:13,243
What do we got, Circle?
913
00:45:14,978 --> 00:45:17,581
"The Circle has
a very important message for you all."
914
00:45:18,148 --> 00:45:19,917
What's the important message?
915
00:45:21,652 --> 00:45:27,124
"Not everyone in The Circle
is the person they say they are."
916
00:45:28,959 --> 00:45:29,793
Obviously!
917
00:45:29,793 --> 00:45:33,363
I think that's the point
of the game, Circle.
918
00:45:33,931 --> 00:45:36,467
Wait. What's going on?
919
00:45:36,467 --> 00:45:40,370
Is The Circle about to,
like, throw us under the bus?
920
00:45:42,272 --> 00:45:45,743
"Not everyone in The Circle is human."
921
00:45:46,310 --> 00:45:47,344
- What?
- What?
922
00:45:47,344 --> 00:45:49,747
Wait. Who is not human?
923
00:45:51,181 --> 00:45:52,015
What?!
924
00:45:55,552 --> 00:45:57,020
Whoa!
925
00:45:58,522 --> 00:46:03,594
This is so freaking major right now.
926
00:46:06,063 --> 00:46:08,065
"One player is AI"?!
927
00:46:08,065 --> 00:46:10,000
I knew it!
928
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,002
One player is AI!
No way!
929
00:46:12,002 --> 00:46:13,770
Oh!
930
00:46:13,770 --> 00:46:15,806
Like the little avatar people?
931
00:46:15,806 --> 00:46:17,841
You're gonna have
people running around here
932
00:46:17,841 --> 00:46:19,710
thinking everybody's a robot.
933
00:46:19,710 --> 00:46:22,412
Oh snap. Oh snap.
934
00:46:22,412 --> 00:46:23,380
Oh no.
935
00:46:24,314 --> 00:46:27,217
- Honestly, it's gotta be Steffi.
- Steffi!
936
00:46:27,217 --> 00:46:29,386
The very first person I see is Cassie.
937
00:46:29,953 --> 00:46:30,821
Instantly.
938
00:46:30,821 --> 00:46:32,923
- Like, was it Paul?
- It's Paul.
939
00:46:32,923 --> 00:46:36,493
Something popped in my head about Kyle.
940
00:46:38,695 --> 00:46:41,064
Finally, things
are about to get interesting.
941
00:46:41,632 --> 00:46:45,135
It's humans versus AI.
What could go wrong?
