1
00:00:07,941 --> 00:00:09,581
[Michelle] After being top rated,
2
00:00:09,661 --> 00:00:12,701
Chris and Shubham get to enjoy
some luxury Japanese cuisine.
3
00:00:12,781 --> 00:00:16,501
Oh, and they also have to block someone
from The Circle forever.
4
00:00:16,581 --> 00:00:20,301
Wow. Sushi? Yes!
5
00:00:20,381 --> 00:00:24,741
[Chris]
Oh, my gosh, look at this beautiful room.
6
00:00:24,821 --> 00:00:25,781
Nice.
7
00:00:26,821 --> 00:00:30,221
Y'all, I am so in disbelief right now.
8
00:00:30,301 --> 00:00:33,661
Y'all can't-- Hold on everybody, hold on,
imaginary friends.
9
00:00:33,741 --> 00:00:34,981
Ooh, is this a cocktail?
10
00:00:37,261 --> 00:00:39,541
Ooh, and it's so-- [stammers]
Ooh-hoo-hoo!
11
00:00:40,141 --> 00:00:43,141
Here is where I have to fight
for the ones I like.
12
00:00:43,221 --> 00:00:45,181
With great power
comes great responsibility,
13
00:00:45,261 --> 00:00:47,061
just like Spider-Man.
[makes whooshing sounds]
14
00:00:47,141 --> 00:00:50,541
Lord, please,
guide me with this decision because...
15
00:00:51,861 --> 00:00:53,101
it's somebody's dream.
16
00:00:53,181 --> 00:00:55,181
I think everybody wants to win,
17
00:00:55,341 --> 00:00:57,341
everybody for different reasons.
18
00:00:57,421 --> 00:01:00,181
But I know I gotta do what I gotta do,
and, honey,
19
00:01:00,901 --> 00:01:02,461
I'm trying to get to the top.
20
00:01:03,101 --> 00:01:04,341
To the finish line.
21
00:01:04,901 --> 00:01:06,581
I want to be able to help my mom,
22
00:01:07,061 --> 00:01:10,181
[clicks tongue, voice shaking]
I don't want us to struggle no more.
23
00:01:11,661 --> 00:01:14,501
I've built such real connections
with people
24
00:01:14,821 --> 00:01:17,101
that I would go
to the end of this game with,
25
00:01:17,181 --> 00:01:19,861
and that I just trust on such a real level
26
00:01:20,501 --> 00:01:22,661
that if I, like, don't protect them here,
27
00:01:23,661 --> 00:01:27,181
then I feel like, in many ways,
I don't even deserve to go back in there.
28
00:01:27,941 --> 00:01:30,501
[Michelle] While Shubham gets
to soul-searching over sushi,
29
00:01:30,581 --> 00:01:33,541
the other Players are feeling
like crabs in a bucket.
30
00:01:33,621 --> 00:01:34,461
[sighs]

00:01:37,741 --> 00:01:42,781

packing their bags yet besides me?"

Send.

"In all honesty,
I haven't unpacked since the first time."
34
00:01:49,381 --> 00:01:53,141
Oh, man. I really have to take
the sympathetic approach,
35
00:01:53,221 --> 00:01:56,381
because after this,
people will definitely resonate with me.
36
00:01:56,461 --> 00:02:01,301
Message. "I am actually in tears.
I am an extreme nervous wreck." Send.
37
00:02:04,101 --> 00:02:06,101
Aw, Rebecca.
38
00:02:06,181 --> 00:02:07,101
Damn it.
39
00:02:07,661 --> 00:02:09,101
Don't be in tears.
40
00:02:09,181 --> 00:02:11,461
Message. "No matter what,
we have to remember
41
00:02:12,581 --> 00:02:14,541
that this was an experience of a lifetime.
42
00:02:14,621 --> 00:02:16,301
All the goods and bads.
43
00:02:16,381 --> 00:02:18,021
Heart emoji." Send.
44
00:02:19,781 --> 00:02:22,421
They are definitely liking who I am.
45
00:02:23,501 --> 00:02:26,781
[chuckles] Not-- Not me,
but I'm responding as Rebecca.

just know this experience was amazing.

[Antonio] Message.
"I feel like if we can't control it,
49
00:02:39,421 --> 00:02:41,461
then there's no point
in stressing about it,
50
00:02:41,541 --> 00:02:44,181
so let's just relax
and wait for the decision.

Heart emoji, heart emoji,
#StillNervousThough." Send.

When you keepin' it player,

00:02:50,461 --> 00:02:52,381
you never gotta stress over nothing,
you know?
54
00:02:52,461 --> 00:02:54,741
We just cool, calm, and collected. Always.

"I am highly enthused and proud
of the outcomes of tonight's Ratings.

God's plan."

I am shitting bricks.

This is the true test.
60
00:03:10,741 --> 00:03:13,301
If Shooby has been honest and real,
61
00:03:15,741 --> 00:03:17,341
I'm not goin' home tonight.
62
00:03:18,621 --> 00:03:21,501

"Let's get right down to business,
63
00:03:21,581 --> 00:03:24,821
no time to waste. LOL."
64
00:03:25,501 --> 00:03:27,301
Send message.

00:03:34,621 --> 00:03:37,781
genuine, honest, and up-front." Send.
68
00:03:38,421 --> 00:03:42,061
I'm sure Chris is gonna rebut this
a little bit, but I could care less.
69
00:03:42,141 --> 00:03:45,541
Okay, so message. "My cons are,
70
00:03:45,621 --> 00:03:51,261
too much too soon,
over flirty, and too feisty."
71
00:03:52,101 --> 00:03:55,141
[chuckles]
This might work against me. Send.
72
00:03:56,941 --> 00:03:58,021
Message.
73
00:03:58,701 --> 00:04:03,621

to the next Player, Rebecca."

Message. "My pros are sweet,
open-minded, and gentle."
77
00:04:15,541 --> 00:04:18,341
"And inclusive,
that's what she is. She's inclusive."
78
00:04:18,421 --> 00:04:19,421
"True."
79
00:04:20,461 --> 00:04:24,701
"I think we can both agree with ruling out
Rebecca from being blocked."
80
00:04:24,781 --> 00:04:26,581
"I totally agree."
81
00:04:26,661 --> 00:04:27,941
"Let's move on to Mercedeze."
82
00:04:28,021 --> 00:04:29,541
"Fantastic."
83
00:04:30,101 --> 00:04:33,141
"So, my cons with Mercedeze,
dot, dot, dot.
84
00:04:33,221 --> 00:04:35,341
In my opinion, she has none.
85
00:04:35,421 --> 00:04:37,661
She has been cooler
than a bitch from the jump.
86
00:04:37,741 --> 00:04:40,461
I truly believe she is a light
in this game,
87
00:04:40,541 --> 00:04:42,621
and I am not ready to turn it off."
88
00:04:42,701 --> 00:04:44,821
Love it. Send message.
89
00:04:45,301 --> 00:04:47,461
I can't say the catfish stuff here,
90
00:04:47,821 --> 00:04:50,741
because I'm only an idiot
to say that to his closest ally.
91
00:04:50,821 --> 00:04:53,821
I have to think about saving people,
not just getting rid of her.
92
00:04:54,501 --> 00:04:56,341
This is gonna be a compromise, of course.
93
00:04:56,421 --> 00:05:00,581
Shubham says, "Let's move on to Antonio.
You start, LOL."
94
00:05:00,661 --> 00:05:05,141
"My cons are,
I feel like I don't know him at all."
95
00:05:05,901 --> 00:05:06,741
Send.
96
00:05:07,221 --> 00:05:09,261
Let's see what Shubham has to say.
97
00:05:10,181 --> 00:05:12,301
Message. "Pros, exclamation mark.
98
00:05:12,861 --> 00:05:15,741
Antonio saved us both
when he was an Influencer."
99
00:05:16,181 --> 00:05:17,981
Send it.
100
00:05:18,541 --> 00:05:19,421
Hmm.
101
00:05:20,421 --> 00:05:25,701
"Cons, other people seem to think
he's a catfish, but I particularly don't."
102
00:05:26,621 --> 00:05:28,741
Yup, that is true. That was brought up
103
00:05:28,821 --> 00:05:32,741
that they're thinking he's a catfish,
and since they brought that up,
104
00:05:32,821 --> 00:05:34,181
it's tickled my mind.
105
00:05:34,741 --> 00:05:36,421
It's like, here's a person who saves me
106
00:05:36,501 --> 00:05:39,101
when I was at my lowest point
in this game.
107
00:05:41,021 --> 00:05:44,781
Shubham says, "Let's finish with Sammie.
I'll start." Come on, honey.
108
00:05:46,221 --> 00:05:47,341
"She's one of the...
109
00:05:48,341 --> 00:05:49,221
sweetest...
110
00:05:50,141 --> 00:05:51,221
people I've met."
111
00:05:52,141 --> 00:05:54,661
"Helped me a lot when I felt isolated.
112
00:05:54,741 --> 00:05:56,701
She is really authentic."
113
00:05:56,981 --> 00:05:58,221
Mm-hmm.
114
00:05:58,901 --> 00:06:00,701
Message. "Cons,
115
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:02,261
her second picture seemed
116
00:06:02,341 --> 00:06:04,581
extremely inconsistent
with her first one."
117
00:06:04,661 --> 00:06:07,821
Ah, good observation.
118
00:06:08,661 --> 00:06:12,381
It sucks, 'cause the last two people
this comes down to,
119
00:06:13,061 --> 00:06:16,661
Antonio and Sammie, they saved me
when I came eighth.
120
00:06:18,301 --> 00:06:19,821
Oh, my God.
121
00:06:20,341 --> 00:06:22,621
[Michelle] Another massive decision made,
122
00:06:22,701 --> 00:06:26,861
but which at-risk Player
have The Circle Gods forsaken?
123
00:06:27,621 --> 00:06:29,021
[alarm blares]
124
00:06:29,101 --> 00:06:30,341
Alert!
125
00:06:30,421 --> 00:06:31,781
[alarm continues blaring]
126
00:06:31,861 --> 00:06:33,621
Okay, it's about time.
127
00:06:33,701 --> 00:06:35,061
Finally.
128
00:06:35,141 --> 00:06:37,541
Please tell me who they don't like.
129
00:06:38,021 --> 00:06:40,741
And here we go,
the moment of truth, everybody.
130
00:06:40,821 --> 00:06:44,261
"The Influencers
have made their decision."
131
00:06:44,341 --> 00:06:45,781
[sighs] Oh, God.
132
00:06:46,381 --> 00:06:48,541
They're probably feeling like I felt.
133
00:06:48,621 --> 00:06:51,621
Cardiac arrest,
heavy heart attack symptoms,
134
00:06:51,701 --> 00:06:52,821
sweaty palms.
135
00:06:53,341 --> 00:06:54,661
[Sammie] Oh, my God.
136
00:06:55,541 --> 00:06:57,461
I could really be going home right now.
137
00:06:57,541 --> 00:06:58,901
[exhales]
138
00:07:00,821 --> 00:07:03,661
[Sammie] Circle, enter Circle Chat.
139
00:07:03,741 --> 00:07:05,821
[voice trembling] Oh...
140
00:07:05,901 --> 00:07:09,541
[clicks tongue, sighs] Message.
141
00:07:10,901 --> 00:07:12,901
[exhales] "Hey, everyone..."
142
00:07:13,981 --> 00:07:15,141
[Joey] "Hey, everyone,
143
00:07:15,221 --> 00:07:17,901
this decision was awful and difficult."
144
00:07:18,101 --> 00:07:20,901
Oh, God, Shooby,
I thought we had something.
145
00:07:20,981 --> 00:07:22,861
Oh, please don't be me.
146
00:07:22,941 --> 00:07:24,421
I don't want to go home.
147
00:07:24,501 --> 00:07:27,301
Come on, send Joey home, please.
148
00:07:27,781 --> 00:07:32,741
Prove to me that not every person you meet
is a scumbag, Shooby.
149
00:07:32,821 --> 00:07:34,541
Message. "But...
150
00:07:36,061 --> 00:07:39,341
Chris and I
have come to a final decision."
151
00:07:41,821 --> 00:07:42,821
[Seaburn sighs]
152
00:07:43,381 --> 00:07:46,101
[exhales]
153
00:07:46,181 --> 00:07:48,621
I just don't want it to be someone
that I've connected with,
154
00:07:48,701 --> 00:07:50,301
or someone that I want to connect with.
155
00:07:50,381 --> 00:07:53,701
[Sammie] It's, like, slowly just becoming
more and more real
156
00:07:53,781 --> 00:07:54,741
that I might be leaving.
157
00:07:56,941 --> 00:07:59,501
I don't know why I don't have confidence,
though, in Shubham.
158
00:08:00,061 --> 00:08:01,381
"We chose this person...
159
00:08:02,621 --> 00:08:06,061
[sighs] ...because we didn't feel
a strong connection to the Player."
160
00:08:06,141 --> 00:08:08,421
"Neither of us know enough
about this Player in The Circle."
161
00:08:08,501 --> 00:08:10,421
Okay, maybe there's hope.
162
00:08:10,501 --> 00:08:13,421
Maybe Shooby didn't stick it up my ass
after all.
163
00:08:13,501 --> 00:08:16,661
That means...
I have no idea what this means.
164
00:08:19,461 --> 00:08:20,701
Oh, shit.
165
00:08:21,261 --> 00:08:22,741
I don't even want to see this shit.
166
00:08:22,821 --> 00:08:23,741
Message.
167
00:08:24,301 --> 00:08:27,261
"The Player we've decided to block is..."
168
00:08:27,341 --> 00:08:29,061
Oh, God, please not me.
169
00:08:29,141 --> 00:08:31,101
[exhales slowly] Oh, my God,
I can hear,
170
00:08:31,181 --> 00:08:32,541
like, I can hear my heart.
171
00:08:33,021 --> 00:08:35,061
It's just like... [imitates heartbeat]
172
00:08:37,821 --> 00:08:39,541
I'm chopped liver here.
173
00:08:39,621 --> 00:08:40,981
Any of us could go.
174

-What's going on?
-[Karyn] I'm sorry!
211
00:11:01,701 --> 00:11:03,821
[Antonio] No!
212
00:11:03,901 --> 00:11:05,501
Yeah, it is me.
213
00:11:05,581 --> 00:11:07,581
-Nah, yo! This is crazy!
-[Karyn] Yeah.

-Nah, I gotta-- We gotta talk now.
215
00:11:11,021 --> 00:11:13,221
[Michelle] Hmm, I wonder
what they could possibly be ready
216
00:11:13,301 --> 00:11:14,181
to talk about?
217
00:11:15,261 --> 00:11:16,421
So why you catfishing?
218
00:11:17,061 --> 00:11:20,261
Would you have talked to me
if I looked like this on my default?
219
00:11:20,341 --> 00:11:21,981
Ooh, that's a good one.
220
00:11:22,061 --> 00:11:24,861
-That's a good one. I mean...
-[Karyn] Exactly. [laughs]
221
00:11:24,941 --> 00:11:28,101
I did the catfish
because, um, all my life I've been judged,
222
00:11:28,181 --> 00:11:30,781
-like, I'm not ugly, but I'm not feminine.
-Mm-hmm.
223
00:11:30,861 --> 00:11:32,901
So, it's really the fact of just,
224
00:11:33,381 --> 00:11:36,221
showing the world that you can't judge
a book by its cover.
225
00:11:36,341 --> 00:11:38,261
So, the picture's fake,
226
00:11:38,661 --> 00:11:41,901
[clicks tongue] but on my life,
everything that I have said has been me.
227
00:11:41,981 --> 00:11:44,181
I like that. I like that.
I can definitely dig that.
228
00:11:44,261 --> 00:11:45,421
-See?
-That's a hundred.
229
00:11:45,501 --> 00:11:47,581
Why'd you chose Mercedeze? The name?
230
00:11:47,661 --> 00:11:49,821
Oh, that's my middle name.
Like, on my birth certificate.
231
00:11:49,901 --> 00:11:51,421
-That's what I'm telling you--
-So, what's your real name?
232
00:11:51,501 --> 00:11:53,741
-Oh, my real name is Karyn. Like...
-[Antonio] Karyn.
233
00:11:53,821 --> 00:11:57,061
So now that I've said it in real life,
imagine me on a phone with you like,
234
00:11:57,141 --> 00:11:59,381
"Hey, this is Karyn,
do you mind if we link up?"
235
00:11:59,461 --> 00:12:01,101
And then I walk in, and I'm like,
"Yo, what up?"
236
00:12:01,181 --> 00:12:03,261
In some Air Maxes that are fitted
and a fresh shape-up,
237
00:12:03,341 --> 00:12:05,181
-and you like, "What the fuck?"
-You, the way--
238
00:12:05,261 --> 00:12:07,821
The way you trying to prove this point,
I-- I-- I feel that.
239
00:12:10,741 --> 00:12:14,501
Okay, well, it looks like he ain't coming
to see me tonight.
240
00:12:14,581 --> 00:12:16,661
You know what?
I'm actually a little offended
241
00:12:16,741 --> 00:12:18,141
he didn't come to see me,
to tell you the truth.
242
00:12:18,221 --> 00:12:20,021
I actually really wanted to see him.
243
00:12:21,141 --> 00:12:22,181
Thank you.
244
00:12:23,381 --> 00:12:25,301
Thank you, you heard my prayer.
245
00:12:27,781 --> 00:12:29,501
Why'd you think I was the catfish?
246
00:12:29,581 --> 00:12:31,501
-I didn't think you were!
-[Antonio] Okay.
247
00:12:31,581 --> 00:12:32,781
[Karyn] I think Sammie's the catfish.
248
00:12:32,861 --> 00:12:35,381
It was Chris and Shubham
that sent you home.
249
00:12:35,461 --> 00:12:37,261
I was just-- I didn't even say
250
00:12:37,341 --> 00:12:38,621
-anyone should send you home.
-[Antonio] Nah, it was you.
251
00:12:38,701 --> 00:12:40,421
You played that shit well.
252
00:12:40,501 --> 00:12:42,901
-If anyone, I'd watch you now.
-Now I feel bad, because you really are
253
00:12:42,981 --> 00:12:44,381
who you say you are. Damn.
254
00:12:44,461 --> 00:12:46,741
You gotta play this right.
I don't know what you gonna do next.
255
00:12:46,821 --> 00:12:48,741
I'mma keep flirting with Sammie,
and I ain't gonna hold you up.
256
00:12:48,821 --> 00:12:50,981
When we first spoke in the girls' chat,
she says she wasn't interested
257
00:12:51,061 --> 00:12:52,541
-in none of y'all.
-[Antonio] Mm-hmm.
258
00:12:52,621 --> 00:12:54,781
[Karyn] So, to me, it's like,
"Are you running a catfish,
259
00:12:54,861 --> 00:12:57,141
-are you a lesbian? What's your story?"
-[Antonio] Right.
260
00:12:58,021 --> 00:13:00,981
So, just keeping it a thousand,
261
00:13:01,541 --> 00:13:05,421
if you could've changed anything
or done anything differently,
262
00:13:05,501 --> 00:13:06,701
what would you have done?
263
00:13:08,581 --> 00:13:10,461
I don't think I would have done
anything differently,
264
00:13:10,541 --> 00:13:12,261
'cause I live my life.
I don't have no regrets.
265
00:13:12,341 --> 00:13:15,221
I tried to be strategic.
It obviously didn't work,
266
00:13:15,741 --> 00:13:17,981
but you know,
I wouldn't take anything back,
267
00:13:18,061 --> 00:13:19,981
because I learned a lot
about everybody on here.
268
00:13:20,061 --> 00:13:22,661
-I'm envious you get to go outside.
-[Antonio] You got this, though!
269
00:13:22,741 --> 00:13:24,821
Man, you about to win a hundred bands.
What you doing?
270
00:13:26,061 --> 00:13:28,701
-[Antonio] So you feel me?
-[Karyn] Bro, bottles on me, man.
271
00:13:28,781 --> 00:13:29,741
Bottles on me.
272
00:13:29,821 --> 00:13:32,421
-[Antonio] All right.
-So put it in the air for me one time.
273
00:13:32,501 --> 00:13:34,101
-[Antonio] Good luck!
-[Karyn] Yo, thank you, man.
274
00:13:34,741 --> 00:13:37,341
When I found out
Mercedeze wasn't Mercedeze,
275
00:13:37,661 --> 00:13:39,661
I really thought I was getting punked.
276
00:13:39,741 --> 00:13:41,621
[Karyn] Bro, blow her down.
277
00:13:41,701 --> 00:13:43,261

if you feel a tingle.

-[Antonio] Yeah.

-Good luck!
-[Karyn] Thank you, bro. Thank you.
280
00:13:48,021 --> 00:13:52,061
[Antonio] The Circle has taught me
that social media is basically fluff.
281

You can be anyone on social media.

Don't judge a book by its cover,

off their appearance

not to judge books by covers.

and people are not who they appear to be.
342
00:17:04,301 --> 00:17:07,381
So, with that being said,
everyone, good luck.
343
00:17:07,461 --> 00:17:09,101
I wish everyone the best.
344
00:17:09,181 --> 00:17:11,701
Everyone, get y'all strategies
and shit together...
345
00:17:11,781 --> 00:17:14,021
-Oh, my God!
-...and always keep it player.
346
00:17:16,101 --> 00:17:17,741
What does that mean?
347
00:17:17,821 --> 00:17:19,661
Aw!
348
00:17:19,741 --> 00:17:22,101
Antonio, I'm so sorry, man.
349
00:17:22,581 --> 00:17:26,301
I'm going to hell.
That's it. I'm going to hell.
350
00:17:26,381 --> 00:17:28,541
There's nothing--
There's no future left for me.
351
00:17:28,621 --> 00:17:29,981
[Karyn sighs]
352
00:17:34,421 --> 00:17:37,821
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
353
00:17:37,901 --> 00:17:39,741
Somebody's not gonna be telling the truth,
354
00:17:39,821 --> 00:17:41,821
'cause they're not gonna admit
to meeting Antonio.
355
00:17:41,901 --> 00:17:44,621
After that message,
they can't admit to meeting Antonio.
356
00:17:45,661 --> 00:17:47,181
So, who did he meet with?
357
00:17:47,701 --> 00:17:50,381
In my mind, instantly,
I think Joey or Mercedeze,
358
00:17:50,461 --> 00:17:52,261
he had the greatest connections with.
359
00:17:52,341 --> 00:17:54,981
But Mercedeze seems so consistent.
360
00:17:55,461 --> 00:17:58,061
I feel like he either went to go see,
like, Sammie...
361
00:17:58,781 --> 00:18:00,021
or one of the guys.
362
00:18:00,101 --> 00:18:03,141
Antonio definitely either went to Chris
or Mercedeze.
363
00:18:03,221 --> 00:18:06,421
Oh, my suspicions are real!
364
00:18:07,021 --> 00:18:09,101
That is mind-blowing.
365
00:18:09,181 --> 00:18:12,621
I am in shock,
but I'm excited because now...
366
00:18:13,221 --> 00:18:14,661
we can get to work.
367
00:18:14,741 --> 00:18:19,301
I feel like I should say he met me,
because everyone kind of put us together.
368
00:18:20,301 --> 00:18:22,621
Or I can spin it
369
00:18:23,021 --> 00:18:27,301
and pretend I'm upset that he didn't come
to see me before he left.
370
00:18:27,381 --> 00:18:30,981
Right now, I don't think anyone
really suspects me as a catfish.
371
00:18:31,061 --> 00:18:34,741
The goal is to make everybody assume
it's somebody else.
372
00:18:35,541 --> 00:18:36,661
The question is, who?
373
00:18:37,221 --> 00:18:41,301
The first two people who got blocked
were who they completely said they were,
374
00:18:42,261 --> 00:18:44,021
so that means out of the six left,
375
00:18:44,101 --> 00:18:47,061
there's a good number of catfishes left.
376
00:18:47,141 --> 00:18:48,261
[imitates explosion]
377
00:18:48,861 --> 00:18:49,981
Mind blown.
378
00:18:50,581 --> 00:18:52,741
This is so much to take in.
379
00:18:53,381 --> 00:18:55,741
What a way to wake up.
What a way to wake up.
380
00:19:01,261 --> 00:19:04,941
[Michelle] A mood. Another Player gone,
so let the private chats commence.
381
00:19:05,021 --> 00:19:07,781
And I don't think Joey's ever gonna finish
that workout.

Dicks over chicks, right?
393
00:19:42,501 --> 00:19:44,101
Is it cool if we invite him in?"
394
00:19:44,901 --> 00:19:45,741
Send.
395
00:19:46,301 --> 00:19:49,421

Message.
"Yup, that's great. Let's bring him in."
397
00:19:55,821 --> 00:20:00,901
Ooh, all right, Shubham has invited us
to a group chat.
398
00:20:01,461 --> 00:20:05,981
I mean, it's worth a shot to see
if the three of us can build foundation
399
00:20:06,061 --> 00:20:07,501
and move forward together.
400
00:20:07,581 --> 00:20:10,861
Oh, it's just me, Shubham, and Joey.
401
00:20:10,941 --> 00:20:13,941
[Joey] All right, boys, let's talk.
402
00:20:14,061 --> 00:20:16,541
We have a lot to discuss.

407

"Honestly, it's a huge shame
that we had to send Antonio home.
408
00:20:29,781 --> 00:20:33,461
Unfortunately, he and I really never got
the chance to know each other better."
409
00:20:33,541 --> 00:20:34,621
That is true.
410
00:20:34,701 --> 00:20:37,301
"I'll be honest, out of all of us guys,
411
00:20:37,381 --> 00:20:40,341
I thought Antonio was the only one
not being real.
412
00:20:41,021 --> 00:20:42,941
I was wrong, and I'm owning that."
413
00:20:45,941 --> 00:20:47,141
That's honest, yeah.

We only have each other now, right?" Send.
416
00:20:55,141 --> 00:20:57,581
He keeps on trying to make
these bromances.
417
00:20:57,661 --> 00:20:58,781
It's just so annoying,
418
00:20:58,861 --> 00:21:01,621
'cause I know Chris is about to leak
all this information,
419
00:21:01,701 --> 00:21:03,341

Send message.
428

That says a lot,
but it says very little, too.
429
00:21:27,061 --> 00:21:28,221
Honey!
430
00:21:28,781 --> 00:21:31,661
We know that groups break up, right?
431
00:21:32,461 --> 00:21:35,021
So, you can be Michelle, you can be Kelly,
432
00:21:35,381 --> 00:21:38,821
but, honey,
we all know there is only one Beyoncé.
433
00:21:40,061 --> 00:21:42,301
[Michelle] Joey might have gotten
the group chat jumpin', jumpin',
434
00:21:42,381 --> 00:21:45,381
but Queen Bey Chris is intent on
being the sole survivor.
435
00:21:45,781 --> 00:21:49,741
Meanwhile, independent woman Sammie
is taking her destiny into her own hands
436
00:21:49,821 --> 00:21:52,781
by deciding to message Mercedeze,
aka Karyn.
437
00:21:53,821 --> 00:21:56,061
Circle, open private chat with Mercedeze.
438
00:21:57,381 --> 00:21:59,221

how are you, question mark." Send.
443
00:22:13,341 --> 00:22:16,581
Hmm. That was--
That was simple. Now it's "my love."
444
00:22:16,661 --> 00:22:18,581
Before, it was,
"Why would I even think about you?"
445
00:22:18,661 --> 00:22:22,101
I am going to plant the seed
in Sammie's head
446
00:22:22,181 --> 00:22:24,741
that Antonio didn't come
and see me last night.

Yeah. Send.
449
00:22:33,461 --> 00:22:35,781
Wait, she was steaming?
What was she mad about?
450
00:22:35,861 --> 00:22:40,181
"I've spoken to Antonio privately
almost every day.
451
00:22:40,261 --> 00:22:43,061
So the fact that I took time
and got pretty last night
452
00:22:43,141 --> 00:22:46,701
and wasted lashes for him not to show up."
453
00:22:47,741 --> 00:22:50,061
That sucks. Yeah, I would be mad too.
454
00:22:50,141 --> 00:22:53,941
Like, if I, like, liked somebody,
and I'm expecting them to walk in my door,
455
00:22:54,021 --> 00:22:56,301
and they don't,
that's like, the biggest letdown.
456
00:22:56,781 --> 00:22:59,301
But I don't know. I don't know if I should
believe her completely just yet.
457
00:22:59,381 --> 00:23:01,141
Like, I don't know.
He may have come and seen her,
458
00:23:01,221 --> 00:23:02,901
and this is her way of, like...
459
00:23:02,981 --> 00:23:05,501
[clicks tongue]
kind of averting me from the situation.

like, being a girl, you know?

Ooh, that feel good. That feels good.
That feels good.

I also agree with that.

Or, like, give me a little insight
on what you're thinking.
509
00:25:35,341 --> 00:25:38,141
-Come on, Joey.
-Message.
510
00:25:38,701 --> 00:25:42,341
"It may be a person
we both have eyes for."
511
00:25:42,421 --> 00:25:43,741
[Miranda] "#Sammie."
512
00:25:44,261 --> 00:25:46,421
She's the best-looking person
up in here, so...
513
00:25:46,501 --> 00:25:48,141
[chuckles]
514
00:25:48,781 --> 00:25:51,621
Maybe, can this be my chance
to tell him he's got a great smile?
515
00:25:53,421 --> 00:25:56,581
"Your photo was actually the one
I noticed first.
516
00:25:56,661 --> 00:25:58,221
You're so handsome."
517
00:25:58,781 --> 00:26:00,381
Miranda's flirty.
518
00:26:01,061 --> 00:26:05,301
I don't know if it's genuine,
but I'll flirt with her. Message.
519
00:26:06,701 --> 00:26:09,301
'When I saw your pictures, I was like..."
520
00:26:10,821 --> 00:26:14,901
Emojis, hearts in the eyes,
let's send, like, four of 'em.
521
00:26:16,621 --> 00:26:19,861
Aw! Heart eyes, heart eyes,
heart eyes, heart eyes.
522
00:26:20,701 --> 00:26:21,581
Message.
523
00:26:22,061 --> 00:26:23,941
"Aw, so sweet!
524
00:26:24,741 --> 00:26:26,101
Heart eyes." As well.
525
00:26:27,141 --> 00:26:28,101
And then we'll send.
526
00:26:29,661 --> 00:26:32,901
I'm happy that he started flirting.
That made me feel good.
527
00:26:33,461 --> 00:26:36,221
He's definitely hung up on Sammie,
528
00:26:36,301 --> 00:26:38,941
but that doesn't mean you can't flirt
with any other ladies up in here.
529
00:26:39,941 --> 00:26:41,861
[Michelle] Trust me, boo,
you ain't gotta tell him that.
530
00:26:41,941 --> 00:26:42,781
[Miranda] Message.
531
00:26:43,261 --> 00:26:46,661
"I saw in your profile
that you're a family man.
532
00:26:46,741 --> 00:26:48,301
Love to see that."
533
00:26:48,821 --> 00:26:51,141
Message. "Family is all you got.
534
00:26:51,221 --> 00:26:53,621
God has blessed me
beyond my wildest dreams.
535
00:26:53,701 --> 00:26:56,261
#ProudMommasBoy."
536
00:26:56,821 --> 00:26:57,701
Send.
537
00:26:57,821 --> 00:27:01,061
"Proud Momma's boy!" Aww!
538
00:27:02,061 --> 00:27:04,581
I love to see people that appreciate
their family,
539
00:27:04,661 --> 00:27:06,301
because not everybody has one.
540
00:27:07,741 --> 00:27:10,381
Aw. "Are you close with your family?"
541
00:27:10,901 --> 00:27:12,821
Oh my--
That's already gonna make me tear up.
542
00:27:13,781 --> 00:27:15,941
[sighs] I'm good,
I'm gonna collect myself.
543
00:27:16,021 --> 00:27:17,141
[sniffles]
544
00:27:20,141 --> 00:27:24,461
"So happy you are blessed.
I am not close with my family."
545
00:27:25,781 --> 00:27:28,741
"My brothers and I actually bounced around
between family
546
00:27:29,301 --> 00:27:32,901
until we were separated
once we were put into foster care."
547
00:27:34,621 --> 00:27:35,861
Oh, my God.
548
00:27:37,701 --> 00:27:38,981
That is...
549
00:27:41,141 --> 00:27:42,541
so terrible.
550
00:27:48,341 --> 00:27:52,341
[sniffles] I'm honestly... blown away,
551
00:27:52,421 --> 00:27:56,461
because I was not expecting to hear that.
552
00:27:56,541 --> 00:27:58,661
That's... so heavy.
553
00:28:00,861 --> 00:28:05,421
"But I wouldn't change a thing.
It's made me stronger than ever.
554
00:28:06,221 --> 00:28:08,221
#FeelingStrong."
555
00:28:10,981 --> 00:28:13,261
Because I do. [chuckles softly]
556
00:28:13,341 --> 00:28:16,301
I want him to know that,
like, I can take care of myself, and...
557
00:28:17,541 --> 00:28:20,541
I've had to take care of myself.
It's kind of like...
558
00:28:20,621 --> 00:28:22,141
not really ever been a choice.
559
00:28:22,221 --> 00:28:23,781
What does this momma's boy think?
560
00:28:25,941 --> 00:28:26,781
Message.
561
00:28:27,741 --> 00:28:29,981
"Your positive outlook on life...
562
00:28:30,661 --> 00:28:32,941
is truly inspiring.
563
00:28:33,741 --> 00:28:38,101
I would be happy to welcome you
into my family with open arms.
564
00:28:38,781 --> 00:28:40,901
You're so brave to share your story.
565
00:28:41,261 --> 00:28:43,701
You have my respect." Send.
566
00:28:45,141 --> 00:28:47,741
[takes a deep breath]
Thank you, that was a wonderful reply,
567
00:28:47,861 --> 00:28:48,701
I appreciate it.
568
00:28:48,781 --> 00:28:52,941
[sniffles] Ah. Message. "Thank you.
569
00:28:53,021 --> 00:28:55,741
That means so much."
And we'll send a heart.
570
00:28:56,461 --> 00:28:58,541
[Joey] "Hopefully, we'll get to chat again
very soon."
571
00:29:00,141 --> 00:29:01,021
Send.
572
00:29:02,701 --> 00:29:04,781
I have complete respect for this girl,
573
00:29:05,781 --> 00:29:10,261
and I think my opinion of her
has changed dramatically.
574
00:29:10,341 --> 00:29:15,341
I didn't know what to think before,
and now my heart is definitely with her.
575
00:29:25,341 --> 00:29:26,981
[Michelle] It's afternoon in The Circle,
576
00:29:27,061 --> 00:29:29,101
and it looks like
all this constant surveillance
577
00:29:29,181 --> 00:29:31,261
is giving some of the Players
quite an appetite.
578
00:29:31,341 --> 00:29:32,661
Hope they got a sweet tooth,
579
00:29:32,741 --> 00:29:35,061
'cause this game
is literally a piece of cake.
580
00:29:36,701 --> 00:29:38,181
[Chris] Oh.
581
00:29:38,861 --> 00:29:40,861
"Nailed it! Failed it!"
582
00:29:41,421 --> 00:29:44,621
Circle, let's open up
this "Nailed It/Failed It" app. [pants]
583
00:29:45,661 --> 00:29:47,461
"Welcome to today's game."
584
00:29:47,541 --> 00:29:52,181
"Players must put their cake-making skills
to the test."
585
00:29:52,901 --> 00:29:53,781
What?
586
00:29:53,861 --> 00:29:55,061
Oh, shoot!
587
00:29:55,141 --> 00:29:57,341
I have never made a cake in my life.
588
00:29:57,421 --> 00:30:01,781
You have 30 minutes
to recreate this colorful masterpiece.
589
00:30:02,181 --> 00:30:04,461
[Michelle]
How complicated can copying a cake be?
590
00:30:05,221 --> 00:30:07,221
[Miranda] Holy shit!
591
00:30:07,421 --> 00:30:11,621
How the hell am I going to make that?
592
00:30:12,661 --> 00:30:13,861
[Sammie] Are you-- What?
593
00:30:15,261 --> 00:30:16,741
What even is that?
594
00:30:16,941 --> 00:30:20,221
Oh, wow.
595
00:30:20,301 --> 00:30:24,181
"You should upload a photo
of your completed cake to the newsfeed."
596
00:30:24,261 --> 00:30:25,821
Oh, no.
597
00:30:25,901 --> 00:30:30,501
"The cake that gets the most likes
will earn their baker a special prize."
598
00:30:30,581 --> 00:30:31,741
I am so screwed.
599
00:30:33,781 --> 00:30:35,581
[Sammie] "Everything you need
has been delivered to your door.
600
00:30:35,661 --> 00:30:37,141
Your time starts now!" [screams]
601
00:30:37,221 --> 00:30:40,341
[Michelle] That's how amped I'd be
if cake was delivered directly to my door.
602
00:30:40,421 --> 00:30:42,661
Now they've got sponges,
they just need to decorate.
603
00:30:42,741 --> 00:30:45,661
I honestly don't know where to begin.
604
00:30:47,341 --> 00:30:49,461
Oh, my God, this is real cooking.
605
00:30:49,541 --> 00:30:51,221
Yes. And there's a picture of the cake.
606
00:30:51,301 --> 00:30:52,781
All right, what do we got? Oh, my gosh.
607
00:30:52,861 --> 00:30:55,461
What's that? Fondant,
molding chocolate? Oh, crud.
608
00:30:55,541 --> 00:30:59,181
We got a bowl. We got--
I don't know what that is.
609
00:30:59,261 --> 00:31:00,581
[Sammie] I have no idea
610
00:31:01,141 --> 00:31:02,821
how I'm supposed to do this.
611
00:31:02,901 --> 00:31:04,861
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Okay.
612
00:31:04,941 --> 00:31:07,781
[Joey] I'm trying to make this thing
look somewhat professional,
613
00:31:07,861 --> 00:31:10,941
and I have no idea what I'm doing.
I got frosting everywhere.
614
00:31:11,021 --> 00:31:13,701
Why is this piece
so much bigger than everything else?
615
00:31:13,781 --> 00:31:16,581
I'm gonna dismember this a little bit
and put it on that.
616
00:31:16,661 --> 00:31:18,541
This'll make it unique, you know?
617
00:31:19,341 --> 00:31:21,421
Let's get this done, cover it,
and coat it.
618
00:31:21,501 --> 00:31:23,301
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
619
00:31:23,381 --> 00:31:25,141
That's it. Get it in there, baby.
620
00:31:25,701 --> 00:31:28,181
That's it!
I don't even know what color that is.
621
00:31:28,861 --> 00:31:30,021
I wish I wasn't a perfectionist,
622
00:31:30,101 --> 00:31:33,021
'cause I feel like I would've been able
to go a bit quicker.
623
00:31:33,101 --> 00:31:34,741
[Michelle] Speaking of perfectionists...
624
00:31:34,821 --> 00:31:35,821
[cake splats]
625
00:31:35,901 --> 00:31:37,541
No!
626
00:31:38,221 --> 00:31:40,901
See, I bet these other kids just go and...
[blows raspberry]
627
00:31:40,981 --> 00:31:43,421
[Joey] Oh, flour! It's snowing!
628
00:31:47,061 --> 00:31:50,101
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
629
00:31:50,181 --> 00:31:52,221
[Sammie groans] Oh, no!
630
00:31:52,301 --> 00:31:54,461
There's cake everywhere.
631
00:31:56,901 --> 00:31:59,781
Oh, he's got his little feet.
Look at that.
632
00:31:59,861 --> 00:32:01,101
[alarm sounds]
633
00:32:01,981 --> 00:32:02,861
[Miranda] "Time's up.
634
00:32:02,941 --> 00:32:05,061
Players should stop decorating
their cakes."
635
00:32:05,141 --> 00:32:06,621
Oh, wow.
636
00:32:06,701 --> 00:32:08,861
It's a magnificent work of art.
637
00:32:09,421 --> 00:32:10,501
[Michelle] Everyone gets a tablet
638
00:32:10,581 --> 00:32:13,261
so they can take a photo
of their colorful concoctions
639
00:32:13,341 --> 00:32:15,541
and upload them to The Circle
for judgment.
640
00:32:15,621 --> 00:32:17,461
You would have to be blind...
641
00:32:18,301 --> 00:32:20,741
to look at this picture and look at this
642
00:32:20,821 --> 00:32:22,501
and not see the same thing.
643
00:32:22,581 --> 00:32:23,861
It's the same guy.
644
00:32:24,381 --> 00:32:26,341
[Shubham]
I can never beat anyone at their own game.
645
00:32:26,421 --> 00:32:29,421
I can't beat
these Gordon Ramsays at cakes,
646
00:32:29,501 --> 00:32:32,181
but I can beat 'em at making
my own type of a cake.
647
00:32:32,261 --> 00:32:33,981
God. [sighs]
648
00:32:34,061 --> 00:32:36,141
[Michelle] The cakes are,
and in Joey's case,
649
00:32:36,221 --> 00:32:38,901
I use this word very generously,
decorated.
650
00:32:38,981 --> 00:32:42,581
It's time for a social media classic:
anonymous judgment.
651
00:32:42,661 --> 00:32:45,061
[Seaburn] "All Players should now go
to the newsfeed."
652
00:32:45,621 --> 00:32:49,541
Okay, I'm on my way. Hold up, honey.
Let me touch up my big-ass six head.
653
00:32:49,621 --> 00:32:52,941
[Michelle] First to pop her cake cherry
is Mercedeze, aka Karyn.
654
00:32:53,021 --> 00:32:56,101
Cake one looks just like the real thing.
655
00:32:56,861 --> 00:32:58,541
[Chris] Not too bad.
656
00:32:59,101 --> 00:33:02,221
And look, even the little flowers
have their little texture.
657
00:33:02,821 --> 00:33:05,141
That's really good,
I'm not even gonna lie.
658
00:33:05,221 --> 00:33:07,061
Show me cake number two.
659
00:33:07,621 --> 00:33:10,261
Aw, look at my cake.
660
00:33:10,781 --> 00:33:13,261
Oh, my God. [laughs]
661
00:33:13,341 --> 00:33:16,101
The bottom looks like colorful dog poop.
662
00:33:16,581 --> 00:33:19,901
The two guys on top look cute.
I tried to do a guy on the top.
663
00:33:19,981 --> 00:33:20,941
It was a stick figure.
664
00:33:21,581 --> 00:33:23,341
Circle, open cake three.
665
00:33:23,461 --> 00:33:25,181
[Michelle] Cake three is Shooby.
666
00:33:25,261 --> 00:33:27,061
[Sammie] What the hell is on top of that?
667
00:33:27,141 --> 00:33:31,861
[Chris] Oh, wow. Social medusa.
668
00:33:31,941 --> 00:33:36,421
I give it a thumb-up for creativity
and using all kinds of stuff.
669
00:33:37,541 --> 00:33:41,421
Well, that looks nothing like the cake.
[laughs awkwardly]
670
00:33:41,501 --> 00:33:43,741
Circle, show me cake number four.
671
00:33:45,021 --> 00:33:46,341
[Miranda] Oh, it's mine!
672
00:33:46,941 --> 00:33:49,141
Let's see how it looks
compared to everybody else's right now.
673
00:33:49,221 --> 00:33:51,701
[Chris] Okay,
I think I just got my ass beat.
674
00:33:51,781 --> 00:33:53,821
This is really good.
675
00:33:53,901 --> 00:33:55,741
I love the giraffe and the zebra on top,
676
00:33:55,821 --> 00:33:57,821
'cause I couldn't do it. Good shit.
677
00:33:57,901 --> 00:34:01,701
Are these, like, people all lying,
and they're, like, master chefs?
678
00:34:01,781 --> 00:34:03,701
Circle, take me to cake five.
679
00:34:04,261 --> 00:34:05,661
[Michelle] Sammie's time to shine!
680
00:34:05,741 --> 00:34:08,741
Okay. You have the decorations,
but where's the Zebra?
681
00:34:08,821 --> 00:34:10,981
[Shubham] This one,
the flowers are really good.
682
00:34:11,061 --> 00:34:13,461
It seems a little bland, though.
A little boring.
683
00:34:13,541 --> 00:34:17,221
Circle, take me to cake number six.
684
00:34:18,101 --> 00:34:20,861
-[Michelle] Yo, I'm here for Joey's cake.
-Ah!
685
00:34:20,941 --> 00:34:22,701
[laughs]
686
00:34:22,781 --> 00:34:24,301
[Seaburn] Whoa!
687
00:34:24,381 --> 00:34:28,061
[exclaims, laughs]
688
00:34:28,141 --> 00:34:33,101
This looks like a cake monster
just took a huge dump on the table, man.
689
00:34:33,181 --> 00:34:34,581
[continues laughing]
690
00:34:34,661 --> 00:34:38,461
[Michelle] Tough one to follow.
Finally, it's Rebecca, aka Seaburn.
691
00:34:38,541 --> 00:34:41,141
Aw!
692
00:34:41,221 --> 00:34:44,621
This is, like, the best one besides mine
right now that I've seen so far.
693
00:34:44,701 --> 00:34:46,421
[Michelle] Time to rate those cakes,
people.
694
00:34:46,501 --> 00:34:49,341
And remember, this is anonymous,
so there's no room for tactics.
695
00:34:49,421 --> 00:34:51,621
My vote is for cake number four.
696
00:34:52,341 --> 00:34:54,421
Like cake number two.
697
00:34:54,901 --> 00:34:58,821
Gorgeous job, I love it.
Circle, give it all my love.
698
00:34:59,421 --> 00:35:02,341
[Michelle] I never thought
I'd be this stressed over a cake. Who won?
699
00:35:02,421 --> 00:35:04,421
Come on, Circle, show me the results.
700
00:35:04,541 --> 00:35:07,461
Drumroll... [imitates drumroll]
701
00:35:09,061 --> 00:35:10,501
[Miranda gasps] What?
702
00:35:10,581 --> 00:35:13,461
"Congratulations, Miranda,
for winning the game!
703
00:35:13,541 --> 00:35:16,661
You will now receive a video
on your profile." [claps]
704
00:35:16,741 --> 00:35:17,621
Yes!
705
00:35:17,701 --> 00:35:20,781
Miranda? Whoa!
706
00:35:21,381 --> 00:35:23,621
-Good for her.
-Miranda?
707
00:35:23,701 --> 00:35:25,181
Meh. Uh-uh.
708
00:35:25,261 --> 00:35:27,341
Yes! Yes! Yes!
709
00:35:30,541 --> 00:35:33,181
[Michelle] The cake challenge is over,
and it's fair to say Joey failed it.
710
00:35:33,261 --> 00:35:34,861
I gotta clean this spot.
711
00:35:34,941 --> 00:35:35,781
[Michelle] Hard.
712
00:35:35,861 --> 00:35:37,061
[Joey] This is terrible.
713
00:35:37,141 --> 00:35:40,261
[Michelle] Because Miranda nailed it,
the cake queen can now add a video
714
00:35:40,341 --> 00:35:42,621
from her private albums
to her Circle profile.
715
00:35:44,061 --> 00:35:46,581
All right, Circle,
716
00:35:47,261 --> 00:35:48,941
let's check out my albums, please.
717
00:35:49,221 --> 00:35:53,981
[takes a deep breath] Okay, Circle.
Will you play my prize video one, please.
718
00:35:54,901 --> 00:35:57,261
[gasps] This looks so good.
719
00:35:57,341 --> 00:35:59,701
I'm really excited, actually.
720
00:35:59,781 --> 00:36:02,541
Circle, will you add this video
to my profile, please?
721
00:36:03,541 --> 00:36:06,781
I'm not really sure how
everyone's gonna react to it, but...
722
00:36:06,861 --> 00:36:08,021
hopefully they feel my energy,
723
00:36:08,101 --> 00:36:10,341
and I'm really excited
for everyone to see it.
724
00:36:11,941 --> 00:36:14,421
[Michelle] Video posted,
it's time for the other Players
725
00:36:14,501 --> 00:36:15,861
to have a look at Miranda.
726
00:36:15,941 --> 00:36:18,141
Circle, view Miranda's video.
727
00:36:21,181 --> 00:36:23,301
[Chris] Oh, okay.
It's a simple little loop.
728
00:36:23,381 --> 00:36:27,101
It's swimsuit season, obviously.
I missed the memo.
729
00:36:27,181 --> 00:36:29,741
[Michelle] For sure,
Sammie will be a fan of this video.
730
00:36:30,221 --> 00:36:33,381
I'm not a fan of that video.
I feel like, of all videos,
731
00:36:33,461 --> 00:36:35,261
I wonder why she chose that one.
732
00:36:35,701 --> 00:36:39,101
Is that her? [laughing]
What the fuck is goin' on right now?
733
00:36:39,181 --> 00:36:41,941
No, this was not what I expected at all.
734
00:36:42,381 --> 00:36:44,061
She likes her tattoos.
735
00:36:44,141 --> 00:36:46,901
She's braver than me
'cause I'm scared of all them needles.
736
00:36:47,541 --> 00:36:48,701
[Seaburn] That was cute.
737
00:36:49,741 --> 00:36:53,581
It doesn't look like her, though.
And her tattoo looks different.
738
00:36:54,461 --> 00:36:55,661
Hold on, wait a second.
739
00:36:58,181 --> 00:36:59,621
I gotta analyze this.
740
00:37:00,101 --> 00:37:02,581
Yup, just like I thought.
741
00:37:03,181 --> 00:37:05,461
Miranda's playing the flirting angle.
742
00:37:05,541 --> 00:37:07,221
I think she looks cute.
743
00:37:07,301 --> 00:37:09,461
[Seaburn] She got a tattoo on her knee
744
00:37:09,781 --> 00:37:11,381
but not in the picture.
745
00:37:11,861 --> 00:37:13,861
Open Miranda's second photo.
746
00:37:14,421 --> 00:37:18,541
And the tattoo's magically gone,
and that definitely doesn't look like her.
747
00:37:18,741 --> 00:37:20,461
Uh, whoa!
748
00:37:21,861 --> 00:37:23,221
Just changed the narrative.
749
00:37:23,701 --> 00:37:25,781
There's a little discrepancy
between the face
750
00:37:25,861 --> 00:37:27,381
on the first and third picture.
751
00:37:28,021 --> 00:37:30,661
She has the rose bouquet here,
752
00:37:30,741 --> 00:37:33,581
and there should be a tattoo right there
that I don't see.
753
00:37:33,661 --> 00:37:35,301
[Michelle] Shooby's mind
will be even more blown
754
00:37:35,381 --> 00:37:38,181
when I tell him people aren't born
with tattoos.
755
00:37:39,461 --> 00:37:42,381
Yesterday, Miranda joked to the group
that Sammie was a catfish,
756
00:37:42,461 --> 00:37:44,941
and for the first time ever,
a statement made on social media
757
00:37:45,021 --> 00:37:46,301
was taken the wrong way.
758
00:37:46,381 --> 00:37:49,941
Unaware Sammie was a little annoyed,
Miranda started a private chat.
759
00:37:50,021 --> 00:37:52,021
[Sammie] "Miranda has invited you
to a private chat."
760
00:37:52,101 --> 00:37:54,741
All right, what do you have to say
for yourself, Miranda?
761
00:37:55,221 --> 00:37:58,541
So, message. "Hey, Sammie, smiley face.
762
00:37:59,341 --> 00:38:01,621
Happy to get this one-on-one with you
763
00:38:01,701 --> 00:38:04,261
so I can get to know you,
exclamation point."
764
00:38:06,341 --> 00:38:09,461
Message. "To be honest,
you kind of hurt my feelings
765
00:38:09,981 --> 00:38:12,461
when you said that you thought
I was a catfish."
766
00:38:13,181 --> 00:38:14,061
Send.
767
00:38:16,661 --> 00:38:18,301
I didn't say she was a catfish.
768
00:38:18,381 --> 00:38:19,501
Message.
769
00:38:19,861 --> 00:38:21,301
"I don't think you're a catfish.
770
00:38:21,381 --> 00:38:23,261
I was just intimidated by you.
771
00:38:23,341 --> 00:38:26,821
You're so extremely gorgeous.
I'm sorry if it came out wrong."
772
00:38:28,741 --> 00:38:30,501
Don't say things you don't mean.
773
00:38:31,181 --> 00:38:32,741
It hurts people's feelings.
774
00:38:33,101 --> 00:38:35,941
I feel bad that she felt that way
because that wasn't my intention.
775
00:38:36,501 --> 00:38:38,101
Just message.
776
00:38:38,861 --> 00:38:42,501
"All love here, girl, exclamation point,
a heart." And we'll send it.
777
00:38:44,301 --> 00:38:47,101
Message. "Don't worry at all.
It's hard when you're just reading things
778
00:38:47,181 --> 00:38:49,941
without having any emotion
or personality behind the words,
779
00:38:50,021 --> 00:38:53,301
but I brushed it off, LOL.
I'm just excited to get to know you now.
780
00:38:53,381 --> 00:38:54,981
How do you feel so far,
coming in The Circle
781
00:38:55,061 --> 00:38:56,901
later than everyone else?" Send.
782
00:38:56,981 --> 00:38:59,461
Message. "So far, everyone's been great.
783
00:38:59,541 --> 00:39:02,541
Mercedeze is spunky, and Joey is so sweet.
784
00:39:03,101 --> 00:39:05,661
Happy to feel
I can add you to my friends list."
785
00:39:07,781 --> 00:39:08,661
Message.
786
00:39:09,541 --> 00:39:12,861
Message. "Yes, Mercedeze is a boss,
and Joey is adorable.
787
00:39:13,461 --> 00:39:15,101
He's definitely attractive.
788
00:39:15,181 --> 00:39:17,061
I will warn you..."
789
00:39:17,141 --> 00:39:19,901
"He is extremely flirty. #GirlCode."
790
00:39:19,981 --> 00:39:22,421
"Nothing wrong with
a little bit of flirting, though, right?
791
00:39:22,501 --> 00:39:24,101
Winky face." Send.
792
00:39:25,661 --> 00:39:26,661
[chuckles]
793
00:39:27,981 --> 00:39:28,861
Message.
794
00:39:29,301 --> 00:39:32,301
"So let's see if maybe we can have
a little friendly,
795
00:39:32,381 --> 00:39:33,781
flirty competition of...
796
00:39:34,581 --> 00:39:38,821
who can get a naughty emoji
from Joey." Send.
797
00:39:39,261 --> 00:39:40,941
[chuckles softly]
798
00:39:41,021 --> 00:39:43,701
"LOL,
I can't turn down a friendly competition.
799
00:39:43,781 --> 00:39:45,861
I just hope
this doesn't give him the wrong idea."
800
00:39:47,701 --> 00:39:50,701
"Don't be mad when you lose." [chuckles]
801
00:39:50,781 --> 00:39:53,461
[Sammie] "#VirtualHugs.
Talk to you later,
802
00:39:53,541 --> 00:39:55,181
exclamation point." Send.
803
00:39:56,901 --> 00:39:58,021
Thanks, girl.
804
00:39:58,661 --> 00:40:01,981
That was fun. I feel good about that! Yes!
805
00:40:02,061 --> 00:40:04,381
[Michelle] While Miranda
and Sammie start training
806
00:40:04,461 --> 00:40:06,061
for the world's easiest competition,
807
00:40:06,141 --> 00:40:08,341
Chris slides into Mercedeze,
aka Karyn's,
808
00:40:08,421 --> 00:40:11,381
DMs to talk about The Circle's
most scandalous video.
809
00:40:11,461 --> 00:40:12,341
Message.
810
00:40:12,661 --> 00:40:15,781
"So, Miss Thing, what did you think
about Miranda's video?
811
00:40:16,341 --> 00:40:19,861
All y'all girls
are clearly turning the body out.
812
00:40:19,941 --> 00:40:23,181
#SuckingInMyGut."
813
00:40:23,661 --> 00:40:27,181
[scoffs] That--
The "sucking in my gut" part is hilarious,
814
00:40:27,261 --> 00:40:30,581
because, Chris, honey, honey,
I don't miss no meals, love.
815
00:40:30,661 --> 00:40:33,461
Message. "I thought it was cute.
I wasn't expecting it, though,
816
00:40:33,541 --> 00:40:35,021
laugh out loud." Send.
817
00:40:35,101 --> 00:40:38,941
Message. "Laugh my ass off,
exclamation point.
818
00:40:39,021 --> 00:40:40,901
Not what I expected either."
819
00:40:40,981 --> 00:40:44,421
"She seems chill, but in my mind,
you still wear the crown."
820
00:40:44,701 --> 00:40:46,461
Yes, love! Thank you!
821
00:40:46,541 --> 00:40:50,941
And it's true, since day one,
I've always been... drawn to her.
822
00:40:51,501 --> 00:40:52,581
[sighs]
823
00:40:53,141 --> 00:40:55,861
I want to bring up the video
that Antonio left,
824
00:40:55,941 --> 00:40:58,421
because he literally called out someone
being a catfish,
825
00:40:58,501 --> 00:41:01,581
and I need to add a hint of doubt
826
00:41:01,661 --> 00:41:04,581
in Chris's thoughts
that I met Antonio last night.
827
00:41:05,061 --> 00:41:06,301
I got this. I got this.
828
00:41:07,101 --> 00:41:07,981
Message.
829
00:41:09,101 --> 00:41:12,981
"Well, seeing how Antonio stood me up
last night, I'm not sure how to feel,
830
00:41:13,061 --> 00:41:15,541
because he definitely told me
Joey was a catfish."
831
00:41:20,741 --> 00:41:23,781
That's some juicy tea right there,
Miss Mercedeze.
832
00:41:24,541 --> 00:41:28,781
I'm hoping that Chris picks up
on me saying that Antonio told me
833
00:41:28,861 --> 00:41:31,501
Joey's a-- a catfish.
Kinda makes him, like,
834
00:41:32,581 --> 00:41:34,181
"Well, what you know that I don't know?"
835
00:41:34,261 --> 00:41:37,701
Hold on. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, girl.
836
00:41:38,701 --> 00:41:41,421
Antonio had the opportunity
to go see somebody, right?
837
00:41:41,661 --> 00:41:43,741
And he went and saw them. Right.
838
00:41:43,821 --> 00:41:46,981
Then he put that video out
for everybody saying that
839
00:41:47,221 --> 00:41:50,981
whoever he went to go visit
was a huge catfish.
840
00:41:51,061 --> 00:41:51,901
Correct?
841
00:41:52,501 --> 00:41:55,901
Mercedeze is saying it was not her
842
00:41:55,981 --> 00:41:57,981
that was visited by Antonio,
843
00:41:58,061 --> 00:42:00,981
so Mercedeze is not the catfish
844
00:42:01,061 --> 00:42:04,741
that Antonio was warning
