00:00♪ Maybe that's the problem, my heart's gone numb, we can't... ♪
00:03I've almost finished my album and my family's coming to Tampa to make a special music video.
00:08This is the last shot, so just give it your best.
00:12It's really fun to see all of us working together on this video project.
00:17It kind of makes me miss the old days when we all had,
00:20you know, our roles to play in the family band.
00:22Okay, that's a wrap!
00:26My man!
00:27I would say Andres is my closest friend that I have up here.
00:30I say we just kind of get out of our comfort zone, meet some girls or something.
00:34I'd be down.
00:35I know there's a lot that I have to learn about approaching women.
00:40I have a really terrible time with missing all that.
00:44I'm both scared and also really excited for you to hang out with Lynn.
00:48Why?
00:48I really want Brendan and my sister Lydia to meet and hang out.
00:54So much is like weighing on it and resting on it.
00:57It's like you taking me home to meet your parents, like that kind of pressure.
01:25Wait, how is playing the bass with those nails?
01:30Well, they act as picks.
01:33Okay.
01:34Today I'm at Ken's house.
01:36Mariah and Lydia are here to show me some music that they've written,
01:40and I thought I would show them my new bass.
01:42Making the music video was so much fun that I think all of us felt inspired
01:47to play music together again, even if it's just occasionally.
01:52So I know I've talked to you a bunch about starting a band.
01:55That's my next step.
01:57That's my goal for the next however long.
01:59I want to be able to do it by myself because I've learned we all have different lives.
02:04It's hard to get a bunch of people together at one time.
02:08So I'm starting a band with professional musicians,
02:11and then hopefully that'll inspire everybody else to join as much as possible.
02:15Everybody else who?
02:18Everybody in the family.
02:19Oh, in the family.
02:21The music video was a really good experience,
02:24and now my next goal is to go on the road and just sing wherever.
02:28So I love your idea of you start a band and we join in whenever we can,
02:35but we all have busy lives, and I don't know what that looks like practically.
02:39Why don't we just one time do a concert all together as a family like we used to?
02:45And it could be new songs.
02:46It could be songs you've written and songs you've written.
02:48Mm-hmm.
02:49Music has always been really important to me,
02:52and I love being able to connect with the children through music.
03:06Looking back on the family band,
03:09I would say those were some of the most happiest days of my life
03:12in the sense of being together as a family and playing music and traveling around.
03:17A lot of things have changed since we were a band.
03:20Oh, yeah.
03:21Like the girls have grown.
03:22Amber has an amazing voice.
03:24She needs to do a song where she solos.
03:26I wish she were here, yeah.
03:28Ethan needs to solo something too.
03:30He has an amazing voice.
03:33Look, we won't be doing gospel music, that's for sure.
03:36Yeah, I mean, we'll do whatever.
03:39I would like to just do worship music.
03:42But Mariah likes to sing about life, her experience, her journey.
03:45And if you mess with her, she will write a song about you.
03:53Lydia, when I say I'm not doing gospel,
03:56it's not because I'm like, no Christian songs whatsoever.
03:58That's not at all it.
04:00I still want to go in that genre.
04:01Yeah.
04:03I'm not sticking to one genre of music.
04:06I'd rather do country, pop, something that makes me
04:09something that makes me
04:12that feels like me and southern gospel isn't to me.
04:15Did you want to play a song for me?
04:17Yeah, I do.
04:18I know you've written a bunch of stuff that I haven't heard.
04:20Especially since I got the electric guitar.
04:22Yeah.
04:23I've been writing really weird songs ever since I got the electric guitar, though.
04:27I will say, I'll just warn you.
04:29Not only is it a challenge having a concert of us all coming together
04:33that we're so physically spread out over half the country,
04:37but we all have totally different musical styles.
04:41Mariah is more contemporary, secular rock.
04:45Lydia is more gospel hymns.
04:48Ethan is more old school country, Johnny Cash style.
04:52I really don't care what genre of music we play.
04:57Singing this song kind of goes against everything in me,
05:02but I'm singing to sing with Mariah.
05:04Aww.
05:05I'm sorry.
05:13I'm a monster, don't come closer.
05:17You can chase me, but I'm faster.
05:21Might be sweet at first, but if you come too close,
05:24I become a monster to protect her.
05:30I'd sing any song with Mariah, anytime.
05:33Because it's my sister.
05:35But me singing, I'm a monster, that just doesn't sit right with me.
05:42You say don't say that, that is the cold truth.
05:46I'm a monster, now I want you.
05:51Five years ago, Mariah couldn't stand to be in the same room with me,
05:54and now we're playing together and talking about doing a concert together as a family.
05:59I'm definitely excited.
06:00It's a little bit nerve-wracking, but I think it'd be fun to just get together and play.
06:06You can chase me, but I'm faster.
06:09I might be sweet at first, but if you come too close, I'm a monster.
06:15I'm going to run at one, two, three.
06:20You dare to get that close to a monster?
06:23I'm a little scared.
06:31It does look like we're a bit early, so I think line dancing starts seven?
06:47Yeah.
06:47A little after seven.
06:48Me and Andres are going line dancing in the uptown section of Minneapolis.
06:54This type of line dancing I've never done before.
06:56I think without a sidekick, I probably wouldn't be out tonight, for sure.
07:02I might just chill at the bar a little bit, maybe talk to some people,
07:05find some chiquitas, you know what I'm saying?
07:07Yeah, we'll see how it goes.
07:08I'm a little nervous, actually.
07:10Yeah, I mean, it's only natural, right?
07:12Have you done this before?
07:13Like approaching girls and stuff?
07:15Yeah.
07:16Oh, yeah.
07:17Me and Olivia have been apart for a year, and the way that me and Olivia met and started dating,
07:22like when we went on our first date, we were like, we're going to get married, you know?
07:25And that's just how it was.
07:26So it was like, bang, right out of the gate, there it was.
07:32I didn't have any experience of going out in public, seeing a complete stranger,
07:37introducing myself, and seeing how the night goes.
07:40I mean, it's just so different from anything that I've ever, ever done before.
07:45Welcome to the Wild West.
07:48How you doing?
07:54Are you guys in line?
07:56Yeah, we're just hanging out.
07:56Can I bug you for a water?
07:58Yeah.
07:58Do you guys also have any coffee, by any chance?
08:01Oh, good.
08:02I don't think I've ever even been to Uptown since I've lived in Minnesota.
08:05I feel like I'm very ready for something new.
08:08And so I guess tonight I'm going to go approach somebody
08:12that I've never met before, never seen.
08:14Get it, bro, get it.
08:17Chop, chop.
08:18Wait, that's the plan, to approach someone tonight?
08:22I mean, yeah, I guess.
08:26Yeah, that's more so just get a little uncomfortable,
08:29get out of our comfort zone, just maybe try something new.
08:32Yeah.
08:52I noticed right away, it's a really, really cute blonde girl.
08:57I want to go introduce myself, but I feel a little bit nervous
09:00because she's really beautiful.
09:02So it's intimidating a little bit to approach a beautiful woman.
09:09Are you nervous at all?
09:11A little bit, got a little shaky leg.
09:13Lydia Grace is driving up from Phoenix today to spend some time with me and Brendan.
09:18I'm waiting.
09:19I worry about Olivia because this seems serious and I don't really know the guy.
09:42Me and Andreas walked in and I noticed right away, really, really cute blonde girl.
09:49I want to go introduce myself, but this is literally the first time that I have
09:54ever approached a girl that I didn't know before and see what happens.
10:01Feel a little bit nervous because she's really beautiful.
10:04So it's intimidating a little bit to approach a beautiful woman.
10:09Everything that runs through your head, she's going to say no.
10:11She has a boyfriend or, you know, I'm going to screw it up or whatever.
10:16But then I said, like, I was going to be line dancing later if you want to stick around.
10:20She said that she would think about it as a possibility.
10:23But her and her friend were planning on bar hopping.
10:27You want another drink?
10:28I can get you one.
10:29Sure.
10:29Yeah, I'll take a peach.
10:31A peach, okay.
10:33But then we ended up not going anywhere else.
10:37We just stood there and talked to them.
10:40How long have you been in Minnesota?
10:42Over a year.
10:43That's not that long.
10:44Yeah.
10:45Do I have a Minnesota accent?
10:47Not, not really.
10:50Out on the boat?
10:51Yeah, I can hear it a little bit.
10:54Putting yourself out there like that is much harder after you get past that.
10:58Then I felt like it's just, it's gotten a lot easier and it's going great.
11:01What prompted, like, the big move?
11:03Yeah.
11:04I wanted to be close to my grandparents.
11:06Yeah.
11:06I got there every weekend.
11:07I work in the shop with my granddad.
11:10So much fun.
11:11He's got, like, all these old tractors and I have my old cars up there.
11:15I've been into old cars since I was 13.
11:18What's, like, the dream car?
11:20Probably...
11:21Some Mustang?
11:22No, it's actually a 1934 Packard, maybe.
11:27Cars are definitely not what they used to be.
11:29The conversation feels like it's flowing very easily.
11:33Like, as soon as there was a lag, I was like, oh crap, I got to think of something to say.
11:37She would come right in with something and it just kept flowing nicely, I think.
11:42So that's your one passion, then?
11:44Anything else?
11:44Do what?
11:45Anything else besides cars?
11:48I'm not excited in front of, like, tons of people.
11:50Well, I love the country.
11:51And people who know.
11:52Cars.
11:53That's the thing, that's the thing.
11:56Ethan seems very, like, earnest and gentlemanly,
11:59so it's always nice to talk to, like, a nice guy, for sure.
12:02So I grew up on a farm without any cell phones, computers.
12:07Computers, TVs.
12:09I mean, I grew up under a rock, literally.
12:11You're like Patrick Star.
12:13Who's that?
12:15Like Spongebob? Patrick?
12:16Spongebob? Oh, right, yeah.
12:17Like, under the rock?
12:18Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:18Yeah, like the starfish under the rock?
12:20Okay.
12:22I watched, like, two episodes of Spongebob with a friend's little three-year-old one
12:27Saturday morning.
12:28I was probably more interested in it than he was.
12:31We had a TV, but it was, like, VHS, you know, where we could watch movies or whatever.
12:38But there was only, like, 10 movies that we were able to watch.
12:44Talking with Ethan about how they grew up with, like, 10 movies,
12:48and they just kind of went through those on, like, the VCR or whatever,
12:52that resonated for me, because I definitely grew up watching, like,
12:54old TV shows and old movies and stuff like that, too.
12:56And I didn't have, like, cable growing up,
12:58so I definitely felt that.
12:59Not to the 10 movies extreme, but, yeah.
13:03All right, line up, guys.
13:04Let's do some line dancing.
13:06Come forward.
13:08Oh, my goodness gracious.
13:09Is there a washing period?
13:12They're up for dancing.
13:14I guess that's a good sign.
13:16That means that they're going to stick around and dance.
13:19It's game time.
13:20So we're going to learn a 32-count dance,
13:23and so you guys should be able to do this one.
13:24Super easy.
13:26No, actually.
13:26All right.
13:28You think.
13:28Here we go.
13:29I actually hold my hand.
13:30It's a new thing for you guys.
13:31Oh, my gosh.
13:32I cannot do this.
13:33Toe struts.
13:35Out and out.
13:36Toe struts.
13:38Out and out.
13:40Grapevine.
13:43I told you I was going to step on your feet.
13:45Sit back.
13:46I could see me and Rachel being good friends after tonight,
13:49but I think I saw a little spark between you and Lily.
13:54I got the grapevine part.
13:55That's it, though.
13:56At first, I think it just seemed like two nice dudes,
14:00but then I was like, hmm.
14:03Feels like there might be some flirt in there.
14:05Yeah.
14:15Maybe there's a little bit of chemistry.
14:17I think I can feel a little bit, maybe.
14:19But I don't know if that's just me reading into it
14:21or if it's actually there.
14:23Got a little bit of a boogie in your stuff now.
14:26Yeah.
14:29I've been single for a year.
14:32I am, like, dating, going on dates, looking.
14:35Yeah, I'm open to something.
14:39I totally didn't anticipate someone as beautiful as this being here tonight,
14:43but I guess I'll go shoot my shot and the worst she can say is no.
14:47Which, in that sense, I would suck.
14:53That was better.
14:54We did it.
14:55We did it.
14:56Only stepped on her foot one time.
14:58Yeah.
14:59Yeah, I stepped on her foot once.
15:02Dang it.
15:02We get one of those.
15:03Only one, though.
15:05Did you just make up that rule because I stepped on her foot once?
15:07If I stepped on it three times, you'd be like,
15:09yeah, it's like baseball.
15:10You get three strikes and you're out.
15:12You start to make me feel better.
15:14You messed up there a little bit on the end, though.
15:15I was like, I need you to sit here.
15:18I need you to sit right there.
15:20I don't think I didn't notice that.
15:21I mean, I would say overall, dancing was an absolute success.
15:25I can't imagine it going any better than it went tonight.
15:28OK, Lily, we're taking a picture.
15:31I was standing next to Lily.
15:32I was like, Zoe, do you think I could get your number?
15:37Did you give it to him?
15:38Yay.
15:40I did, yes.
15:42That's cute.
15:43That's cute.
15:44Did you save it?
15:45Hold on, Zoe, it's not done.
15:46Did you save it?
15:46I'll save it.
15:47I saved it, yeah.
15:47OK.
15:48Let me see, let me see it, let me see it.
15:53You look great.
15:54Are you going to call her?
15:56Yeah, I'm going to call her.
16:12Welcome in.
16:13Hi.
16:14How are you guys?
16:15Good, thank you.
16:17I've been enjoying our vacation on Sedona with, I don't know what to call him.
16:23Occasionally, I call Brendan my boyfriend because I just like scramble and I freeze
16:27and I don't know the words.
16:28I'm like, my boyfriend.
16:30But I don't love it.
16:31Like, it feels a little bit juvenile.
16:33And also, like, I've had a husband.
16:35So like, backing, I don't know.
16:40I don't know.
16:41Anyway, well, the person I'm dating named Brendan.
16:45Welcome to the Psychic Center.
16:47We have an appointment.
16:49Oh, cool.
16:50To get our auras read.
16:50Yeah, for aura photos.
16:52Today, we booked an appointment to have our auras read.
16:56Sedona is known for its spiritual energy, which I call woo-woo.
17:00And I'm at a point in my life where I want to explore that a little bit and not be judgmental
17:06about it.
17:06Find out what it means to me.
17:08So just have different options.
17:10It just kind of depends on how much information you want with the photo.
17:14And then we can also do the couple photo.
17:17Yeah, I definitely want to do the couple photo one.
17:19OK.
17:20Yeah.
17:22Yeah, you guys are very welcome.
17:23Hi, guys.
17:23How you doing?
17:24Come on in.
17:26My name's Molly.
17:27I'll be doing your aura photos today.
17:28Nice to meet you, Molly.
17:29Nice to meet you guys.
17:31I love your hair.
17:36So when it comes to aura and all that other stuff, I'm indifferent.
17:40But regardless, if it's something that I want to do,
17:43I think it's important not to feel like I'm robbing her of her enthusiasm or giving her
17:47a hard time about that.
17:48Because, you know, what does that do other than affect her ability to enjoy the thing
17:53that she really wanted to do?
17:55It's just an opportunity for me to learn and maybe understand something that I didn't
17:58necessarily understand before.
17:59So an aura photo is your body's energetic field.
18:03Usually this color stays the same, which is your base color.
18:06And these colors can shift depending on what's coming in for you, what energies, things like
18:11that.
18:11So we're going to take your photo.
18:12I want you guys to look at this camera and smile or do whatever you'd like.
18:16Okay.
18:16One, two, three.
18:18Perfect.
18:19It's so cute.
18:20All right.
18:20So now you guys get to share my handy dandy hand sensor here.
18:24You can like touch each other.
18:25You know, you are in a relationship.
18:29I'm going to relax.
18:34Beautiful.
18:35All right.
18:36So pretty.
18:36So right this way, guys.
18:38I have no idea what to expect, especially since I feel super stressed in my personal
18:44life right now, because I'm still traveling a lot, shooting so many weddings.
18:49And then also a long distance relationship is kind of stressful in some ways.
18:55There's like wires crossed and miscommunications and trying to figure all that out as you're
18:59getting to know somebody new.
19:00There's just a lot of things that feel kind of up in the air.
19:03So look at your beautiful colors together.
19:06So look at your beautiful colors together.
19:08You guys are taste the rainbow Skittles.
19:10I love to see this.
19:11So this the colors on this side here, which is that blue.
19:16This is the energy that our people people feel from you guys when you're together.
19:19And then the yellow on this side is the energy that's coming in for you guys.
19:23So let's go ahead and break that down.
19:25So you guys have.
19:27Yeah, this is easier as I can.
19:29All right.
19:29So this beautiful, bright yellow coming in.
19:32This is total transformation and shift.
19:34So bright new things heading in, whether that's like moving somewhere together or.
19:45You hungry for ice cream?
19:46Yeah.
19:47So much to choose from in here.
19:49Can I try the southern butter pecan?
19:51It's pecan.
19:52It's pecan.
19:54I don't think so.
19:55I pecan.
19:56I'm not, I pecan't.
19:59My wife gonna make some pecan pie tonight.
20:02Exactly.
20:04Mm.
20:20You hungry for ice cream?
20:21Yeah.
20:22There's so much to choose from in here.
20:24What are you thinking?
20:26I don't know.
20:26What do you want?
20:27Veronica's favorite things to do are go shopping and get ice cream.
20:31Those are literally her two favorite things.
20:34Can I try the southern butter pecan?
20:35Yeah.
20:36It's pecan.
20:37It's pecan.
20:38I don't think so.
20:40Pecan.
20:42It's, I pecan.
20:43I'm not, I pecan't.
20:46Them pecans.
20:48Pecan.
20:49My wife gonna make some pecan pie tonight.
20:52Exactly.
20:55I don't want this orange gummy bear.
20:56You could have it.
20:57I don't want a gummy bear.
21:00You're such an old man with what you like.
21:02Banana ice cream with raisins.
21:04I don't think I've ever had banana ice cream.
21:05I was just feeling it this morning.
21:07No, it sounds like something that you would make growing up.
21:09You would do like frozen fruit ice cream instead of ice cream.
21:12His version of growing up was very different from mine.
21:15My version of growing up?
21:16Everyone grows up.
21:17Yeah, no.
21:18There's not a version of it.
21:19So when he grew up, he didn't have any sugar.
21:22He told me all that.
21:22They would make homemade fruit ice cream out of bananas and probably honey and milk.
21:29You wouldn't put honey.
21:30Frozen fruit is sweet enough.
21:31Frozen bananas are very sweet.
21:33Fruit is sweet enough.
21:33And I got sugar-flavored sugar.
21:37Yeah, we have a family concert coming up.
21:41I think my family wants to do it.
21:42Can you come?
21:43I don't know when or where yet.
21:45I think everyone's going to be there.
21:47That'd be fun.
21:48My family wants to have a little trip, vacation, slash band reunion.
21:53I don't know what it's going to look like.
21:55A lot of us haven't really played music in a few years.
21:58And I want you to come.
21:59You could like, you could do the tambourine.
22:01Me?
22:02I can't be in the Plath family band if I'm not in the Plath family.
22:05You're considered.
22:07I'm a considered family?
22:09Yes.
22:10So I have to play a tambourine?
22:12Welcome to the Plath family.
22:13No, you can just, you can do whatever you want to do.
22:15No one's forcing you.
22:16Can I yodel?
22:17No.
22:20My dad said it's okay if Ken goes.
22:22It should be interesting.
22:24That'd be fun.
22:25But do you think my mom and Ken aren't going to last?
22:29Because you've met them both.
22:30I mean, I've met them briefly.
22:32I know your mom a bit more than Ken.
22:34I love your mom.
22:35She's a sweetheart.
22:36Ken seems great as well.
22:38So we'll see.
22:39Yeah.
22:40I wonder if they say the same thing about us.
22:44Sure. Everyone says the same thing about us.
22:46Yikes.
22:47Veronica and I have been together for a year and a half.
22:52You know, we have ups and downs,
22:53but we communicate decently about what we want, what we need.
22:58And like, I switched up my lifestyle for her,
23:04which was a lot.
23:06But now I have something deep and meaningful.
23:09Just a thousand times better.
23:13What is there to do around here?
23:14You want to go walk around?
23:15You want to go shopping?
23:16Shopping for?
23:17Jewelry.
23:19Sure.
23:20I say we buy everything that sparkles.
23:23Read between the lines.
23:27So this beautiful bright yellow coming in,
23:33this is total transformation and shift.
23:36Brenda and I booked an appointment to have our auras read.
23:39So here we are.
23:41Find out what our energies are made of.
23:45So bright new things heading in,
23:46whether that's like moving somewhere together or...
23:53It's a cool energy.
23:54It's a fast energy and it's a positive, bright energy.
23:57But it feels like moving to me.
23:59So do you guys have any questions on that?
24:04I don't think so.
24:04I'm actually surprised at how spot on that was.
24:08A little bit, yeah.
24:10Molly said, it sounds like you have a big move coming up,
24:13which honestly feels really big.
24:15It feels really huge.
24:18My lease in LA is coming to an end.
24:21And I've been thinking, do I move?
24:23Do I not move?
24:24If I do move, should it be closer to Brendan?
24:28It's a lot to figure out.
24:31We have the beautiful green coming in above your head.
24:33So this has to do with this yellow energy,
24:36this yellow of the bright new things coming in.
24:38This is clarity.
24:39So you guys are going to immediately know.
24:41Trust your intuitions again.
24:43If you feel like yes, do it.
24:45If you feel no, don't do it.
24:47Moving out to LA was the first time I was on my own
24:50and like in the driver's seat of my own life.
24:53And thinking about moving for a relationship,
24:58like it feels like a big decision.
24:59It feels like there's a lot of like responsibility
25:02and care that comes with that.
25:04What if Brendan and I broke up?
25:05We didn't stay together.
25:06Am I going to regret it?
25:08I want to make choices that feel right for me.
25:10What's really interesting here too,
25:11is there's a lot of energy that needs to be let go of
25:14in our heart area.
25:15So like all this yellow, right?
25:17Oh yeah, all that yellow.
25:19It's almost, I call it like the pimple that needs to pop.
25:22But all in all guys, I love your energy together.
25:26How are you feeling?
25:27Good.
25:29Thank you so much for coming in.
25:31Molly, thank you so much.
25:32Good luck on your journey, guys.
25:34You got this, you got this.
25:38Are you glad that we did the reading?
25:39Yeah, I mean, I'm glad.
25:40I think it was pretty good, so.
25:42You think it was pretty accurate?
25:43Yeah.
25:44I need some food.
25:46I found that very interesting,
25:47but right now there's other things I want to focus on.
25:50Lydia gets into town tomorrow and I'd be lying if I said
25:55I was not anxious for them to get to know each other.
25:58Because I just want them to be besties
26:01and like love each other and get along.
26:04And I just have very high expectations
26:08and I'm scared I'm going to be let down.
26:10Like what if they hate each other?
26:12That's a possibility.
26:13I like that like together everything was really strong.
26:17Like all the shock, like all the core shockers were so strong.
26:20Yeah.
26:25Well, this looks perfect.
26:27I think so.
26:28You could stack other rings with that.
26:30It would look really pretty with a wedding band.
26:33Ever since I moved in with Veronica,
26:35I think in both of our minds, even with it unsaid,
26:38this marriage is on the table.
26:40You can buy it right now.
26:50If I was to pick anything in here, what would I pick?
27:01How did you know?
27:03Because I'm smart.
27:05I like shopping.
27:06She does like shopping.
27:08Definitely just walk by shiny objects and end up inside.
27:13Yeah, she definitely has that.
27:15You have a do with just yours is shiny cars,
27:17mine's shiny jewelry, tomato, tomato.
27:21Manifest it, dream it, chase it, grab it.
27:24You can have it.
27:27We should get that for the dog.
27:29$35,000.
27:31That's a great deal.
27:34Let us know if there's anything we could help you with today.
27:37Yeah, so we're just looking, but out of curiosity, what's your ring size?
27:43What finger?
27:46Did you guys actually ever had your finger sized at all or?
27:50Do you know what size you are?
27:51I know what size finger this is.
27:53Why don't we try it?
27:54I can measure all of your fingers.
27:57Veronica, Micah says, look at the rings.
28:00What's that mean to you?
28:01Definitely means something.
28:03I haven't fully processed it.
28:05We're just getting sizes and just looking, just hanging around.
28:11You're about seven and a half, eight, which is perfect.
28:13And it depends if you're thinking about an engagement ring
28:16or if you're thinking about just a fun ring.
28:19If you're thinking an engagement ring, I would recommend going with about seven and a half.
28:25We start talking about earrings and yeah, just electronic rings.
28:32Yeah, electromagnetic rings.
28:39Well, this looks perfect.
28:41What do you think?
28:43That is pretty.
28:45It matches.
28:46So I need it.
28:47I know, it's not too big.
28:49We haven't seriously talked about getting married.
28:52We've definitely, I've joked around about it,
28:54like we'd randomly get married and just show up.
28:57Don't know if that's my style being a type A.
28:59What does type A mean?
29:01There's type A and type B.
29:03You're type B because you're spur of the moment.
29:05I'm type A, like let's plan this.
29:08Yeah.
29:10Go ahead and try one more.
29:12That's really pretty.
29:13I think that's my favorite.
29:14Yeah.
29:15Let's put them together on the same finger.
29:18What do you think?
29:18Do you like emerald cut or radiant?
29:21I like emerald a little better.
29:22I'm just going to take a picture so you know.
29:27So you know what you like.
29:29Ever since I moved in with Veronica, I think in both of our minds,
29:34even with it unsaid, marriage is on the table.
29:38But to be honest, I'm not quite ready to, you know, put a ring on it.
29:45It's a big commitment.
29:47Like in my mind, I'm so young.
29:49Sometimes I'm just like, am I really in this stage of my life?
29:55But at the same time, like you're never 100% ready for anything.
29:59Just so I know, what do these rings cost?
30:02You're looking at completely sustainable diamond coated gems,
30:07which the average price for a ring would be under $500.
30:15You can buy it right now.
30:18How about this?
30:18I will buy this for you as a cocktail ring for now.
30:25Yeah.
30:26Yeah.
30:28Well, congratulations.
30:29Yeah.
30:30Congratulations on thinking about thinking about it.
30:32That's a step in the right direction.
30:35Yeah. No, I'm not thinking about anything actually.
30:39I know when you lie.
30:41I do.
30:42Every Plath boy gets like two dimples in bright red.
30:45No.
30:45Yeah.
30:47Engagement, if it ever happens.
30:50I'm not going to say when it will or when it wouldn't.
30:53Like I said, I think we're thinking about thinking.
30:55Thinking about thinking.
30:58Yeah. I'm only 23.
31:01We'll get this wrapped for you.
31:03Perfect.
31:03And why don't we have some champagne to celebrate?
31:08If he asked you to marry him today, would you say yes?
31:11Yeah.
31:12Aw.
31:15Here you go.
31:17Nice and pretty.
31:21Are you excited?
31:22Yeah.
31:22Me too.
31:31Me introducing you to Lydia and you guys hanging out is my version of like
31:34you taking me to meet your parents.
31:35Yeah.
31:36Olivia wants us to be family because that's the only real family
31:40that she feels like she has.
31:42And so there's a lot of pressure on me.
31:59All right.
32:00This is a brand new deck.
32:02So we have absolutely no idea what we're doing.
32:04No, I do.
32:04I know what I'm doing with it.
32:05I've just never used this deck before.
32:07Fair.
32:08I have to keep an eye for Lydia.
32:10Do you want me to shuffle and you can keep that?
32:12Yeah, I'm going to throw the football at her.
32:14Here you go.
32:15Get the football ready at least.
32:16Have it on your side so she can't see it like right here.
32:19Hold on.
32:20Lydia Grace is driving up from Phoenix today
32:22to spend some time with me and Brendan before he leaves to go back home today.
32:28Are you nervous at all?
32:30I wasn't.
32:30But now that it's actually time to meet her, a little bit.
32:32I got a little shaky leg.
32:34A little shaky leg.
32:35A little shaky leg.
32:36I met Lydia once when she was coming up to Virginia to pick up Olivia.
32:40That was a brief interaction.
32:42And then since then, it's been a lot of video calls.
32:44There's always going to be nerves involved.
32:46But for the most part, I'm confident that she's a good person
32:50and we'll have a good relationship.
32:52I think I hear footsteps.
32:58Where you at?
33:03You're at the right place when a football comes flying at you.
33:06Your face was like beaming.
33:07You were waiting for that moment.
33:08I was waiting.
33:11Hey, Brendan.
33:12Oh, it's good to see you again.
33:14Brendan is Olivia's new boyfriend.
33:16I call him Brendan.
33:17I met him for like 10 minutes, but I don't really know the guy.
33:21So I definitely want to get to know him.
33:23And especially because this seems serious.
33:25Unfortunately, I'm coming in like the afternoon
33:27and Brendan's flight doesn't leave too far from now.
33:29So we're a crush for time.
33:31Brendan, I can't really stay and hang.
33:33Brendan, how was your flight?
33:35It was fine.
33:36Yeah, layover in Austin, so.
33:39Mm, cowboy country.
33:41Yeah, I had a little bit of time on my hands.
33:42Got a meal, milkshake.
33:46The way that you're talking, I'm sorry.
33:47I just feel like you rehearsed it and got a meal.
33:51I know that Brendan makes my sister so happy,
33:53but I worry about Olivia.
33:55She and Ethan were basically babies when they got married.
33:59Being with somebody for five years in a relationship,
34:01that's your first relationship.
34:02That's all you know.
34:03So I think it's important to take that into consideration
34:06when thinking about jumping into something like this.
34:08There's so much of life to experience
34:10and there's a lot to experience when you're single
34:11and not attached to somebody.
34:13She has not been single realistically for long at all.
34:16So you want to do a reading?
34:17Are you doing tarot readings right now?
34:19Yes.
34:19How do you know how to do a tarot reading?
34:20He only charges $5.
34:21Because it's like right here.
34:22Because it's not good.
34:23Wow, hater nation.
34:27Cut the deck.
34:28Cut the deck in your first.
34:29Let's see what you get.
34:30I need scissors.
34:31Huh?
34:32No.
34:34Like pull half the deck.
34:36Is that called cutting?
34:37Yeah.
34:39Sitting around chatting, I just feel very at ease with him.
34:42I don't feel like there's any walls up, to be honest.
34:44And he's just really chill.
34:46So I personally feel like we get along pretty well
34:48for not really knowing each other.
34:49This will be your immediate past.
34:51It's upside down.
34:52That's a bad omen.
34:53No, it just means it's the opposite of whatever it says.
34:56All of them are upside down.
34:57Sheesh.
34:58If we're being logical, it's the way they relate out.
35:00Yeah.
35:00Perspective is everything.
35:03There is just like a feeling about Olivia
35:05when she is around Lydia.
35:06And when she's talking to her,
35:07it definitely makes her feel like
35:08she's more free to just be herself.
35:10So it's just nice to see that, honestly, more than anything.
35:13You want to do one for Olivia?
35:14Okay, yeah.
35:14You want to read mine?
35:17She has endless energy and thrives on being busy.
35:20That's very much you.
35:22At work, her desk would look like merry chaos.
35:24My past.
35:25She's flying around with a clipboard,
35:26organizing everyone else's pool of ideas.
35:28This is absolutely your past.
35:29Yeah.
35:31I feel like it's going great so far.
35:33They haven't tried to kill each other.
35:35So that's a positive sign.
35:39I don't know.
35:40I just feel like you have a very chill energy
35:41and it's easy to get along with you.
35:42Thank you. Appreciate it.
35:44I talk about you a lot.
35:45Just a little.
35:46Just a little?
35:47Just a little.
35:47Almost everything is a good thing.
35:49Well, I think we're very intertwined in each other's lives at this point.
35:51So whoever we're dating is going to have to hear about them
35:54whether they want to or not.
35:55Yes? Yes, Jackie.
35:58Yeah, well, because I might be the only family member
36:00you'll ever get to meet,
36:02number one, I just want to make sure that you feel welcomed
36:04and valued and loved.
36:06But it's also just kind of sad
36:08because there's 10 of us, you know,
36:09and you just get to meet one.
36:12I think that's why I was so nervous about
36:14you and Brendan meeting and hanging out.
36:16I wasn't going to say it.
36:17No, it's wise because I realized, like,
36:19I told him when we first started dating,
36:22I was like, you realize, like,
36:23I can't bring you home to my parents.
36:24I know what it feels like to not have supportive family
36:27when you're with somebody.
36:27So, like, I can't imagine giving that to someone else.
36:32Me introducing you to Lydia and you guys hanging out
36:34is my version of, like,
36:35you taking me to meet your parents.
36:36Yeah, yeah.
36:38And yeah, you don't have the supportive family
36:40that's going to, you know, welcome him and love him.
36:42But you also get it from his family.
36:44Yeah, your family's super nice to me.
36:47Yeah, they love you.
36:48They added me to their family group chat.
36:50The 18 family group chats?
36:51Yeah, the 18 different ones.
36:53Yeah.
36:54That says something.
36:56I love Lydia.
36:58She's a great person.
36:59And I realized Olivia wants us to be family
37:02because that's the only real family
37:04that she feels like she has.
37:06And so there's a lot of pressure on me
37:08to be the best person I can be for Olivia.
37:09So it can be daunting to feel like
37:11I'm not on that level sometimes.
37:14Hey, guys.
37:15I actually just looked at the time
37:16and I got to get out of here.
37:17So otherwise I might not make my flight.
37:19Okay.
37:20You ready?
37:21Yeah, I didn't look at the time.
37:22I'm glad I got to hang out with you a little bit.
37:23Yeah, it was nice to see you.
37:24It was good to see you too.
37:25Oh, always good to see you.
37:27You take care.
37:27I'll walk you to your car.
37:28Yeah, you want me to drive?
37:29Yeah.
37:30I really do admire her.
37:31And I have a lot of love for her.
37:32If you love something, you'll let it free.
37:34And if it loves you, it'll come back.
37:35And that's kind of hard to keep in mind sometimes
37:40because I do realize that Olivia is so free in that.
37:51I'm not necessarily the best thing to come back to, so.
38:00I think that they genuinely care about each other and she's happy.
38:04But I do worry, I guess.
38:06I feel like this relationship is really new
38:09and really serious really quickly.
38:11That is just my observation and my opinion.
38:13You know, anyone can take that with a grain of salt.
38:16If I'm being completely honest,
38:17I just didn't see her getting into something so quickly.
38:20I do feel like it's rash.
38:22I'm gonna miss you.
38:23I'm gonna miss you so much.
38:30Thanks for meeting Lyd.
38:31Yeah.
38:34You know how I feel.
38:35You think you're gonna get along with her?
38:36Yeah, I already told you this.
38:37You know how I feel about her.
38:37She's great.
38:38Just checking.
38:40I do know that Olivia is a very emotional person.
38:43And she does tend to throw herself into things and invest.
38:46She's just one of those people that I think sometimes
38:47has to learn lessons the hard way by jumping in with her heart.
38:52So I'm happy for her.
38:53But yeah, I'm just a little bit wary.
39:00So
39:26it's been a few days since me and Andres went line dancing.
39:29And, well, Lily gave me her number.
39:33We've been texting.
39:34But I just don't know how to read, like, whether a girl likes me or not.
39:40She asked what I was doing.
39:42And I told her and sent her some pictures of whatever car I was working on.
39:46And then I asked her what she likes to do.
39:49And she said she liked riding in old cars.
39:52And I think I just responded like,
39:54oh, OK, that's really nice or something like that.
39:57It's a complete dork.
39:59You ever think she might be flirting with you?
40:01Yeah, I missed that one.
40:07I don't think I can take Lily out in this car.
40:10I don't know.
40:10There's still something about that that is too fresh.
40:16This 1937 Plymouth is the car that I took Olivia out on our first date.
40:21And it's the car that we took out when I proposed to her
40:24when we drove off from our wedding in it.
40:26It's very hard for me to imagine loving someone else.
40:30I think that's what I'm still struggling with,
40:32is, like, feeling something for someone else.
40:35I think I keep looking for what I felt for Olivia,
40:39like, when I first met her with someone else.
40:42And I don't know.
40:42Maybe that's just not how the next one will play out.
40:45But it seems worth it to try again.
40:49Otherwise, I'll never know the answer to that.
40:51Otherwise, I'll never know the answer to that.
40:54So I suppose I have a couple other old cars I could take Lily out in.
41:14I finally booked a date for the concert,
41:17and it is much sooner than I expected.
41:22I'm going to sound like quite the beginner.
41:27It's been probably six years since we all played together.
41:31Check, check, testing.
41:32What could possibly go wrong?
41:35I'm not running south. I don't remember how to run south.
41:39Hey.
41:39Hey.
41:40Just like old times, huh?
41:43This is kind of a big deal because we're all here together, including Ken.
41:48This is the moment, you know, because I really haven't sat down with Ken before.
41:53I'm just wanting to see who punches who first.
42:03Dad, do you know what's going on with Mariah?
42:04She's...
42:05I know it's her life, but I'm not okay with that.
42:08We went from, like, Ethan dropping a bombshell of news...
42:12I don't know where Micah and Ethan went.
42:15...to basically a riot with pitchforks of plaids.
42:21So we have her location.
42:23I need to talk to Mariah. I need to see if I can get her.
42:25She won't answer.
42:27It's literally a chaotic hot mess.
42:30Where are you?
42:31I'll call you back in a bit.
