00:00All right, trying to help out the very thorough Sean.
00:04Sean told us a lot about his date with Emily,
00:08but has not heard back from Emily since their date.
00:11I don't know.
00:12He sounded like a thoughtful guy.
00:14Yeah, he did, but he said he really enjoyed listening to her talk,
00:18and so he's like, I just kind of was quiet and let her do most of the talking.
00:22So I don't know.
00:23Maybe that there's something there because maybe he didn't talk enough.
00:27Maybe she doesn't really know much about him.
00:29But I asked him, I'm like, if you could put your finger on anything,
00:32what would you think it could be?
00:34And he's like, well, maybe because I texted her too soon.
00:36But he texted her a couple times.
00:38Yeah, I don't think that's it.
00:40All right, so let's try to call Emily right now and see if we can get her on the phone.
00:59Hello.
01:00Hi, is this Emily?
01:02Yes.
01:02Hey, Emily.
01:03This is J.R. Lana and Kevin over here at 99.5 QIK.
01:06How are you doing?
01:10I'm okay.
01:12Hey, do you have a couple minutes?
01:13We want to see if we can talk to you about a date you went on.
01:16I know that's really random.
01:18Yes, it is.
01:19Have you heard of the second date update before?
01:23Oh, yes, I have.
01:24Okay.
01:25I know this is out, actually.
01:26As soon as you said that, I'm like, I think I know where this is going.
01:28Yeah.
01:29Yes.
01:29So we want to talk to you about Sean.
01:32Sean said that you guys had a great and casual first date.
01:36You guys went to Outback.
01:38And he said that, I mean, really, the way he described how you talked and how interesting you were and intriguing you were, it was like he was kind of gushing over you when we talked to him.
01:51And I guess he texted you to make sure that you made it home okay.
01:54You did.
01:55And then he said he reached out a couple days later, but then nothing from you.
02:00So he's kind of confused on what's going on.
02:02But I'll be honest with you.
02:03I mean, he really went into detail, like, of, you know, the way she speaks.
02:06I could listen to her talk all night.
02:08You know, like it was, like I said, he was definitely smitten over you.
02:12Yeah.
02:14I don't feel the same.
02:16Okay.
02:17Well, we'll talk to you later.
02:18No, no.
02:19What happened?
02:21He just, I mean, he's cheap.
02:24He's cheap?
02:25Yeah, that's the easiest way to say it.
02:28It was just kind of ridiculous, honestly.
02:30Huh.
02:31What happened?
02:32So he asked me out.
02:34And, like, right from the beginning of the date, he, like, before we even order, asked me, hey, are you cool if we split the check?
02:43Which, to be honest, I would just kind of expect him to offer to pay at least on the first date.
02:50But at the same time, I'm not going to make a big deal out of it.
02:53It's 2023.
02:54I make my own money.
02:55Fine.
02:55Sure.
02:56So I'm like, you know, okay, that's fine.
02:59But then when the check comes, you know, I pull out my credit card to give to the guy.
03:04And he takes out, we went to Outback, and he took out an Outback gift card.
03:09And he specifically says to the server, he's like, hey, so we're splitting it.
03:15So can you use the gift card for my half?
03:19And then whatever, you know, is on her half can go on that card.
03:23No way.
03:24Yes.
03:25Right.
03:26Let's say it's 50 and the bill's 60.
03:27You can't even cover the 50 and be like, okay, you just pay the extra 10.
03:30You know what I mean?
03:31Like, really?
03:32Yeah, it's a gift card.
03:33Like, you're going to be that?
03:34That's not for our good life.
03:35He's saving it for another date, apparently.
03:37It sounds like it.
03:38I guess so.
03:39I don't know.
03:39Yeah, maybe that's what he's going to do for our second date is use up the rest of his gift card.
03:43I don't know.
03:43Oh, wow.
03:45There was just no way.
03:45I just thought that was completely rude.
03:47And, I mean.
03:49Did you say anything?
03:51I didn't say anything because at that point, I already knew.
03:53I was like, there's not going to be a second date.
03:55This is not worth mentioning.
03:56I'm just not going to talk to him again.
03:57Let me ask you this.
03:59Despite this whole settling up at the end and it being awkward, were you cool with going to the Outback?
04:04Yeah.
04:04No, he asked me beforehand.
04:06He was like, hey.
04:07We know why, I guess.
04:08Casual.
04:09Yeah.
04:09Do you mind going to Outback?
04:11And I was like, I mean, sure.
04:13I don't mind.
04:13That's.
04:14I like Outback.
04:14That's fine.
04:15That wasn't the problem.
04:16It was the fact that he not only asked me to split the check, but use the gift.
04:22Like, that's what makes me think he picked Outback is because he had a gift card.
04:26Well, obviously.
04:26A hundred percent.
04:28Oh, yeah.
04:29All right, Emily.
04:30Well, the other half of this story is with Sean and we actually have him on the other line.
04:37I want to bring him on with us because I get what you're saying and that would be very awkward.
04:42Sean.
04:44Hi.
04:45Sean, is that accurate?
04:46Did you pay for your half and only your half with a gift card?
04:52Yeah, because I thought that's what we agreed to.
04:54I like I wouldn't have done it if we didn't agree to it.
04:57So I'm a little confused because you said that you were OK with that.
05:02And then that's what happened.
05:04But now it's not OK.
05:06I was OK with splitting the check.
05:08I'm not OK with you only paying for your half when you have a gift card.
05:14It's free to you.
05:16Do you not understand how bad that looks?
05:18Yeah, Sean, from a guy's perspective, she agrees to split the bill with you.
05:22And then you really kind of were looking for a free meal because you plan to go to this place.
05:27Yeah.
05:27And then you.
05:28I wasn't looking for a free meal.
05:30I had the gift card, which was money at the place that we ate.
05:34And I don't think it was gutsy to ask to split the bill either because I feel like, you know, we're equals.
05:40Right.
05:41I don't often pay for meals for perfect strangers.
05:44But you asked me out.
05:46You don't think you should expect to pay or at least like not pay with a gift card only your half.
05:54No, not when we said that that's what we would do.
05:57It seems to me like maybe you weren't honest about how you felt when you said that you were right.
06:03All right.
06:03This is going nowhere slowly.
06:04Yeah.
06:05OK.
06:06Yeah.
06:07Why don't you just pay for the whole thing, though?
06:09Yeah.
06:09Would you be willing to.
06:10Get a gift card, Sean.
06:11Since you spent zero of your own money on the first date, would you be willing to.
06:14I've got like 15 bucks left on it.
06:15What's that?
06:16I've got like 15 bucks left on the gift card.
06:19Oh, is that where we're going for date number two?
06:21OK.
06:22Now I'm going to use it for lunch.
06:23What do you say?
06:25Well, listen, let me ask you a question, Emily.
06:27I don't.
06:27I think I know the answer already, but I'll ask you anyway.
06:30Would you be willing to go on another date if he paid for it?
06:34OK.
06:34Well, Sean, now you know what was going on.
06:37Interesting move on your part.
06:38Interesting strategy.
06:39But again, didn't cost you anything.
06:41So there's that.
06:42So I appreciate you reaching out to us.
06:45I'm sorry.
06:45We're not going to be able to make another date happen.
06:47I wish you luck.
06:48At least I'm famous now.
06:49So that's cool.
06:50You're famous because you're on this show.
06:51I don't know, man.
06:53All right, Emily, thanks for your time.
06:55You guys have a great day.
06:56All right, thanks.
06:57Bye.
06:59Woo.
07:00Sean's a little goofy, I feel like.
07:02At least I'm famous now.
07:05I didn't want to break it to him.
07:07That's probably not the case.
07:08But yeah, that is kind of, you know, I get,
07:12pulling out a gift card on a date.
07:13It was $15 left.
07:15But pulling out a gift card on a date is a little bit,
07:18on a first date is a little bit, I don't know.
07:20Third, fourth date, no problem.
07:21Especially.
07:23Yeah, I don't know about that.
07:24I mean, even if he was going to pay the whole thing
07:26on a first date, pulling out a gift card is a little weird,
07:28especially when you've asked ahead of time, like,
07:30hey, can we go to this certain restaurant
07:32that you happen to have a gift card to?
07:34That's a little different.
07:35But maybe it wouldn't have bothered some people.
