Are you Carolina?

- Yeah, yes.|- Hi. I'm Heath Pierson.

Snake says you're the one to thank|for choosing me as a contestant.

You're welcome, Heath.|Was it a successful date?

Yes, yes it was.|The romance wasn't there, but...

we had a good time.

What a great attitude. Most people,|if it's not love at first sight,

they wished they had never|come on the show. Why did you?

I lost a bet with someone in my|office. But I thought, 'Why not? "

I'm new to L.A,|I don't know anyone.

And it's a difficult city|to meet people in, as you know.

We're on in 10 minutes.

You don't want that on you.

Hello, everybody.|Okay, is anyone nervous?

Don't be. The hard part's over.|You've already had the date.

Now all you have to do|is tell Chuck all about it.

- My date hated me. I could tell.|- I'm sure she didn't, John.

Actually, he's right.|He's a complete a**hole.

Okay. Tara, you know you can't|say "a**hole" on TV, right?

He took notes on everything I did.|And my name's not Tara, it's Kate.

I'm Tara.

And I didn't hate my date.|He was totally hot.

Oh, I see.

Okay, Kate.

Let's stick to positive comments|when we're on the air, okay?

I understand. You screwed up.

I should have had him.

Hello, I'm your new P.A.|Kristine.

Phone call

- for Carolina.|- Take a message, please.

Snake said to tell you that|Georgia's blowing chunks.

Excuse me, I'll be right back.

Kristine, can you please escort our|contestants to the holding room?

Okie dokie, you've got it.

So who knows where|the holding room is?

From Hollywood,

it's your favorite game show,|"The Perfect Date." And now here's

your perfect host,|Chuck McBride.

Keep it coming. I can feel it.|I can feel it. I need your love.

Georgia, you're supposed|to throw up all the time.

Maybe because there's a person|growing inside you.

We sent two contestants|on a blind date.

You get to see the results right|here. And then you get to decide.

Was it the perfect date!

What a putz.

Let's see those first two guests|right now. Here are Heath Pierson

and Tara Barnell.

Carolina!

What? You still haven't told|grandma you're pregnant yet?

Carolina!

Georgia, I'll call you back.

Do we still have anyone working|around this piece of crap show?

Job opening.

I am so sorry.|I heard what happened.

How did you know|this was my car?

Your name is on the fence.

Souvenir.

Do you want me|to sign it for you?

You're funny.

Yeah, well,|Chuck overruled funny.

You have to believe there's|something better coming along.

I'm guessing you don't want to work|a game show the rest of your life.

You must be from a rich family.

I thought so.

Well,

I can afford to buy you dinner.

You get me fired|and you want to buy me dinner?
