00:00Oh, who'd you match with it?
00:07Tyler Nat?
00:11How do you guys know him?
00:13I mean, he had Vicky Sinaj on his stream.
00:15Bottom line, there is no way that Tyler Nat is matching with you on Tinder.
00:19Yeah, it might be a catfish.
00:22Well, the alleged catfish just messaged me.
00:29You want to be a journalist? Wow, she pretty and smart.
00:38I need to impress the big boss first.
00:40Send me something to read.
00:42I read the article and sent you an email with my thoughts.
00:46You're so talented.
00:48I can't believe you actually read it. Love your feedback.
00:52You surprised me.
00:54Good night, beautiful.
00:56No, I got it.
00:59You look so good, it hurts my soul.
01:03This time of the month sucks.
01:06Hashtag hot mess.
01:08Send me a photo.
01:10Take out the mess.
01:13You equals hot.
01:16I hope this care package helps.
01:22To y'all.
01:25Enjoy the rest of your afternoon.
01:29Snap out of it!
01:30Girl, don't you have an article to write in a Boston Press?
01:33Or do you love living in the mailroom?
01:34You know, I would like to be able to write one sentence without this thing crashing out on me.
01:46Oh, well, why don't you ask Mr. Moneyback's Tylenet to buy you a new one?
01:50Seriously, Mera, why are you being so naive?
01:53Well, you know my track record.
02:01You go to homecoming with me?
02:03I think that Jared might be the one.
02:17Okay.
02:18Sorry, this just isn't working for me.
02:27P.S.
02:28Max confused your stuffed animal as a chew toy.
02:32I'm sorry.
02:34Caleb said he was visiting his grandma in the hospital.
02:44Is Caleb's grandma blonde and wearing a cake face of makeup?
02:47Ty just makes me feel special.
03:05I've never really felt wanted like that before, and it's nice.
03:08You know, he could totally be a 50-year-old man with Cheeto dust-covered fingers trolling you from his parents' basement, right?
03:14You wouldn't understand, this Instagram model.
03:19Hey, sorry I'm late. I was at this tech conference.
03:22I just...
03:23I'm gonna throw this thing at the wall. I can't stand it.
03:25Hey, let me take a look at it.
03:27In the meantime, here.
03:29I was passing by your favorite bakery today, so...
03:32As much as I would love to inhale these, I can't if I want to fit into...
03:39this.
03:41I'm gonna wear it on my date with Ty tomorrow night.
03:43Mare, honey, I know you did not just spend a fortune on this dress when you can't even fix your laptop.
03:52You with your laptop.
03:53Mare, honey, I can't even use all of those.
03:54No one's coming.
03:55I'm not looking too late out, but here's where I need your parking lot.
03:56You, with your laptop...
03:58Please, thanks...
03:59My phone number is now on the screen and you'll click the same button.
04:00I've got to turn your laptop.
04:01How can I have to turn my phone number?
04:02Why can I hear you?
04:04I can't talk to you.
04:05I can't even worry.
04:06How can I hear you?
04:07I'll give it a time for you.
04:08I can't do this as well.
04:09Don't you know...
04:10I can't do this as possible.
04:11I can't do this as well.
04:12Even if you want to reach your laptop.
04:13I'm sorry, but don't have to show you how you do this.
04:14Excuse me.
04:28Hi.
04:29Hi.
04:30Uh, are we ready to order?
04:31Um, could I just have, like, one more minute?
04:35Unfortunately, we can only hold the table for an hour and a half.
04:39Restaurant policy.
04:41Okay.
04:44Sorry.
05:01I don't want to say I told you so.
05:09Hey, hey, hey, it's okay.
05:16It's okay.
05:16Just breathe.
05:17Just breathe.
05:17We got you.
05:20I'm going to go get you some water.
05:21What's wrong with me?
05:29Like, am I really that undateable?
05:32Like, just once, I'd like it if a guy was like, oh, you know, that girl, she's 10 out of 10.
05:39I'd wife her up.
05:45I'm going to die alone.
05:47Will you go to homecoming with me?
06:03I can't believe I was dumb enough to think he'd say yes.
06:23You're not dumb.
06:24Yes, I am.
06:25Oh, perfect.
06:27What?
06:30Huh?
06:36Sorry, couldn't make it.
06:38Something came up.
06:39Uh-uh.
06:39Big cap.
06:41Biggest cap in the world.
06:42Give me that.
06:42What are you doing?
06:43Pick up the phone.
06:44Hora if you're not a catfish.
06:46Hora.
06:46I know Ty's voice.
06:49Call him.
06:51I bet it's not.
06:52Hey, Meredith.
06:53Sorry about ghosting you.
06:55Things just been crazy.
06:56Like, for real.
06:57Crazy around here.
06:58Yo, I got a death threat today.
07:00What?
07:01You got a death threat?
07:02Yeah.
07:03Don't worry.
07:04This happens to famous people all the time.
07:06But I promise, I'm going to make it up to you.
07:08Oh, really?
07:09How?
07:10How?
07:10How?
07:10How?
07:10How?
07:10How?
07:10How?
07:12How?
07:12How?
07:12How?
07:13How?
07:14How?
07:16Oh, my goodness.
07:34Diamond earrings.
07:35I cannot believe you gave your address to a catfish.
07:38Clearly, he's not a catfish, Tori.
07:39You heard his voice.
07:42Well, if he's not a catfish, then...
07:45Then he's a cheater.
07:53So when were you going to tell me you have a girlfriend, huh?
07:55Yeah, or that you're not even real.
07:57Yeah, I don't even know if you're the real Tylanette.
07:59Hashtag catfish.
08:01For real?
08:02You think I'm a catfish?
08:04Bet.
08:05I'll video call you.
08:06Let me get to my PC.
08:08My phone camera's all jacked up.
08:09A hundred dollars?
08:14He's not real.
08:16Good thing Pat fixed your computer so you can see that I'm right.
08:25There you go.
08:26Good as new.
08:27You're a lifesaver.
08:29Hopefully my writer's block goes away so I can actually write something.
08:32Oh, look at us.
08:37Yeah.
08:38Oh.
08:38Look at us.
08:46You're real.
08:48So then you're a cheater then.
08:50We saw that article with you and Gabrielle.
08:52Yo.
08:53It ain't what it seems.
08:54She and I only dated for some PR crap.
08:55I only care about you.
09:00Those earrings look good on you.
09:02You like them?
09:03They're lovely, but they're too much you shouldn't have.
09:06I should have.
09:07Meredith.
09:09You were a ten out of ten.
09:11You deserve a hundred diamonds.
09:12Not for real.
09:13I love spoiling you.
09:15And I always believe what goes around comes around.
09:18And I know you'll spoil me in other ways.
09:22I gotta go.
09:24Someone's breaking in.
09:24Wait.
09:25Tell me your address.
09:26I'll call the police.
09:27Ty.
09:29Ty?
09:35I haven't heard from him in weeks.
09:36I hope he's okay.
09:38I told you something isn't right.
09:40Hey.
09:40I got you your favorite double-double.
09:42No onions.
09:43Light mayo.
09:43Just the way you like it.
09:45Thanks, Patrick.
09:45Thanks, Patrick.
09:54What is it?
09:59No way he's in the hospital.
10:05See?
10:06He posted this on IG today.
10:09Yeah, well, he probably has his post scheduled out.
10:12Like, all celebrities do that.
10:14You know, they don't post in real time.
10:15Oh, my God.
10:16Meredith.
10:16I can't with you.
10:19Ask him to send a photo of him with his thumbs up if it's really him.
10:22I'm not gonna do that.
10:23Yeah, because you know I'm right.
10:25He's been ghosting you for weeks.
10:27Poor guy's in the hospital, and...
10:29He's not in the hospital.
10:31Meredith, can't you see that this is all one big scam?
10:35See?
10:36Are you happy now?
10:41That could have totally been photoshopped.
10:48You're in the hospital?
10:50Oh, my gosh.
10:50Baby.
10:51Baby.
10:52It's okay.
10:53This happens to a ton of celebs.
10:55Here's the thing, though.
10:56I had to freeze all my accounts.
10:57I can't pay for nothing, or they're gonna be able to track me.
11:02Look, girl.
11:03I hate to ask you this, but is there any way...
11:06Any way you can help me out?
11:08I mean...
11:10I know it's a lot to ask, but I promise you I'm gonna pay you back.
11:14Double.
11:16Have I ever broken a promise to you?
11:20Oh, my goodness.
11:25I ain't here to play with your feelings, okay?
11:27I want a future with you.
11:29Nobody else.
11:31So can you help me?
11:33Oh, man.
11:34I feel pathetic for even asking.
11:36I mean, look at you.
11:37You're perfect.
11:39I can't believe I was dumb enough to think that he'd say yes.
11:42You're not dumb.
11:43That's right.
11:44I don't even want to go to Hong Kong anymore.
11:48Just...
11:48face it.
11:49I'll help you.
11:55How much do you need?
11:57One million dollars.
12:04And you'll never hear from me again.
12:06What's wrong?
12:22He asked for money, didn't he?
12:27No, he didn't.
12:28What's wrong?
12:45No, he didn't.
13:17It's been weeks and his number's out of service and I just, I don't even know what to do anymore.
13:43Let the ghost be a ghost.
13:45I understand when he was treating you right, but girl.
13:48Stop being the loo-
13:49It's not just that.
13:50It's-
13:51Do you remember when you asked if he asked for money?
13:58How much did you give him?
14:02Mayor, how much?
14:05How much did you give him?
14:12Tell me the truth.
14:13I'm literally at work.
14:14How much did you give him?
14:15I'm one million dollars in debt, okay?
14:16I'm just gonna have to figure out how to make the money back somehow.
14:24I don't know.
14:24Fake.
14:33What do you mean they're fake?
14:35Cubic zirconia.
14:36I don't know what to do anymore.
14:41I've lost everything.
14:43You're the only one that cares about me.
14:44I'm not the only one.
14:46Guys, after analyzing these images, these are definitely AI generated, and he's probably
14:55using a voice changer and a program to change his appearance on video calls.
14:58See, you would need a PC for that, because a phone lacks the power and efficiency to generate
15:06realistic AI video calls in real time while a PC can do all that heavy lifting with ease.
15:11That's probably why he's not taking any calls on the phone.
15:13Gosh, I love my nerdy friends, except when they act dumb.
15:20Look, I'm probably gonna lose my apartment, and I don't have enough time to even worry about
15:25writing my article anymore.
15:27That's it.
15:28We're gonna get you your money back.
15:30That catfish isn't gonna swim away that easily.
15:39First, let's try to find out where this creep is.
15:41Guys, go through all of your messages with a fine-toothed comb.
15:45See if there's anything that can give us a hint.
15:48Guys, he's gotta be on the East Coast, because at 9.30 a.m., he texts me saying,
15:55enjoy the rest of your afternoon.
15:57That's a good start.
16:07I got it.
16:07I'll do a deep dive into his account and try to find an email or a phone number.
16:12Good idea.
16:13Yeah.
16:17I'll head up some influencers I know and see if they've heard of anything.
16:21Maybe this guy's done this before.
16:23Come on, don't tell me you don't know anything, girl.
16:25You live for gossip.
16:26I'm not finding anything.
16:42This guy really covered his tracks.
16:44Is there anything from your guys' conversation that might have stood out to you?
16:50Anything you might have seen?
16:53Meredith, you were 10 out of 10.
16:57You deserve 100 diamonds.
16:58I love spoiling you.
16:59Actually, I think that I saw, like, a take-out bag in the background of one of his videos.
17:05Like, he had just had lunch.
17:07And, like, a pizza box.
17:19That must be the food.
17:22I'm starving.
17:23Game glass.
17:33Did you guys find him?
17:35What'd I miss?
17:39Hey.
17:40Look into this one.
17:42One of my influencer girls said that someone pretended to be him on Tinder about a year ago and used this number.
17:48Guys, listen to this.
17:49Like, when you find the perfect study spot in the library with just enough light without getting fried.
17:57That's weird, right?
18:00Wait, NYU.
18:02From one of my failed dating experiences, there was this guy from NYU, and he told me about how all the students would get sunburned in the library because they had these huge windows.
18:10He's got to be there somewhere.
18:25God!
18:30That guy looks familiar.
18:37He had a Tinder profile.
18:38I swiped left on him.
18:40So, what now?
18:44We burned this loser's life to the ground.
18:50So, I looked into him more, and it looks like this Greg guy is a super socially awkward kid.
18:56Apparently, he was also left out of the yearbook for one year.
18:59Ouch.
19:00I was voted prettiest.
19:01Should we call the cops?
19:12No, not yet.
19:13When the real-life Tinder swindler got busted, none of the women got their money back.
19:17But we are.
19:18We're going to scam the scammer.
19:28He's clearly desperate for a girlfriend, so let's give him what he wants.
19:34We'll orchestrate a meeting between Tori and this guy.
19:37But do you really think he's going to fall for his own scheme?
19:40Yes, because ours will be different this time.
19:43We're using a real influencer, and it'll be in person.
19:45First, we get him to take the bait.
19:50That's me.
19:51I'm the bait.
19:52I got that.
19:54Next, we'll build a rapport.
19:56Then, we get him to trust Tori.
20:10Once he's head over heels in love, which won't be hard for someone that's starved for affection,
20:18we kick things into gear.
20:21We get our money back.
20:26And once we get our money, we ghost him.
20:56I can't even tell Patrick.
21:01Is that all you want to tell Patrick?
21:03What?
21:04Seriously?
21:06Mayor, you are so bad at love.
21:10Patrick is crazy about you.
21:12He's always there for you.
21:15Think about it.
21:18Oh, sorry to do this, Mayor, but my date's waiting for me.
21:24Are you going to be okay?
21:26You didn't think I was going to let you spend homecoming alone, did you?
21:43Oh my gosh, you're right.
21:53Oh my gosh, you're right.
22:23Oh, hey, Greg.
22:27Wait, what's going on?
22:28Why are you ghosting me?
22:29Sorry, I've just been working on a big surprise for you.
22:45How could you do this to me?
22:48I loved you.
22:50Well, I guess you could say what goes around comes around, right?
22:53Mm-hmm.
22:54Say cheese.
22:54Cheese.
23:23Congrats, Mayor, on officially becoming a published journalist.
23:30You're welcome for the advice.
23:33And congrats to you, Patrick, on being recruited by the FBI.
23:37They got you wearing a wire, yeah?
23:41I'm going to miss you when you move.
23:44Oh, by the way, I got you a little congratulatory gift.
23:49What?
23:51What is this?
23:52Oh, my goodness.
23:57I know you had to sell the one I got you back when.
24:00Back when I was too blind to realize what I wanted was right there in front of me.
24:06Will you guys just kiss already?
24:07Do you guys advantages?
24:24You
