"My name is Robert Sepulveda Jr." "I'm 33 years old, originally from Puerto Rico." "I founded RSJ Design, an award-winning interior design firm, currently based in Atlanta." "I'm also the president and founder of the Atlanta Rainbow Crosswalks, which is a nonprofit historic art project." "I'm definitely a hopeless romantic." "I'm looking for love, I'm looking for marriage." "I'm looking for that white picket fence dream." "It's my turn to find love." "My parents are the biggest support system." "They have accepted me through everything, and my sister as well." "She gives the most amazing advice and I can trust her." "She's my best friend." "I've accomplished things in my career." "I've accomplished things in the community." "But there's a missing piece, and that missing piece is someone that I can just hang out with, somebody that I can travel with." "I want what everybody wants." "To share my life with someone special." "My dream guy?" "He's articulate." "He's smart." "He's gorgeous." "Has good family values." "I'm ready for someone that's a go-getter, and most importantly, has an amazing heart." "I'm excited that I'm Prince Charming." "I'm making history here." "I get to meet 13 amazing guys and they're looking for love, just like me." "But this is a competition, and one by one, I will be eliminating these men until I find my perfect guy." "This journey is about finding love." "Connections will be made, but hearts are also gonna be broken." "But in the end, I know I'll leave here with the man of my dreams." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "How's it going, Robert?" "How are you?" "Good to see you." "Good to see you too, definitely." "Wow." "Here we are." "Here we are." "About to embark on this crazy experience." "Now, this is a game-changer." "I mean, it's 2016." "And there has not been an all-gay dating show." "Exactly." "So tonight will be very interesting because you're gonna get to enter the house as one of the suitors, so this is the best way to get a real first impression on all of these guys." "Are you nervous?" "Do you think this is gonna work?" "First of all, I'm gonna enjoy this." "I think this is an amazing way to really see how they are without them knowing that I'm their Prince Charming." "Now, I have to ask the question." "Some of these guys might be going in the house thinking it's summer camp, wanting to hook up." "What are you gonna do if that happens?" "Well, that's why I'm doing what I'm doing tonight." "I really want to get, like, an unfiltered look at what these guys are thinking, what they're doing." "Yeah, this is gonna be interesting but I" "I'm loving the opportunity to do this." "So what are you wanting to happen by the end of this?" "You know, I hope I meet someone just honest, genuine, but at the end of the day," "I want to find someone that I can build a life with." "That's my goal, is to meet someone that I can continue my path with, basically." "Well, I'm excited." "I am so excited." "I mean, to be next to you during this whole adventure." "Because an adventure it is gonna be." "And we're gonna find you true love." "Good." "Ready for this?" "Yeah, cheers to that." "All right, cheers to that." "Cheers to love." "To love." "Thank you, Lance." "I'm Eric, I'm 35 and I'm from Los Angeles." "When people first get to know me," "I'm quiet and I'm shy." "It's a protection mechanism, because growing up in Texas as a gay man was definitely a challenge." "I've been single for a little bit over two-and-a-half years." "Currently, I feel like I've just been trying to present myself in the most authentic way" "I possibly can and be true to myself." "Hi." "Thank you." "I'm Paul." "I am 34, from Dallas, Texas." "I moved there with my ex and we were engaged at the time." "He passed away this last Thanksgiving and I think that I have learned how to be a better partner as a result of being with him." "The one thing that I think still makes me lonely and frustrated at times is that the experience of sharing a life is something that is so much more rich than experiencing it alone." "I'm Paul." "Eric." "Eric?" "Nice to meet you." "Good to meet you." "How's it going?" "Well, it's really nice to meet you." "You have amazing eyes, by the way." "Thank you." "Yeah." "So, when I first walked in," "Eric was the only person there and my first thought was that he was the Prince Charming that we were all going to be vying for, and I actually, to be honest, was excited about that, 'cause he seems like a really great guy" "and he's obviously very attractive." "I genuinely want to get a chance to meet all these guys without any pretense." "I think for me, this is an amazing opportunity to get to know them and not have them know who I really am." "I like San Francisco to visit, but I don't" " I don't think I would want to live there." "Hi, guys." "Hey." "Hi." "Robert, how are you?" "How's it going?" "Eric." "Hi, Eric, nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you." "Pleasure." "Robert?" "Yeah, Robert." "Paul." "Pleasure." "Pleasure to meet you." "Cheers." "Cheers." "Nice to meet you guys." "Yeah, it's a pleasure to meet you as well." "This is gonna be an interesting experience." "It-- I was telling Eric, this is completely outside of my comfort zone." "Yeah." "The first two guys that I see are Paul and Eric." "Paul is striking and Eric is just as striking and I know that it's gonna be an amazing few weeks." "Hi, I'm Dillon." "Sorry." "Hi, Dillon." "Eric." "Hi." "Dillon." "Dillon?" "Paul." "Pleasure to meet you, Paul." "Hi, Robert." "Dillon." "Pleasure to meet you." "Nice to meet you as well." "I'm Dillon, I'm 26 and I live in Los Angeles, California." "Originally from New Orleans, Louisiana." "I come from a big family, you know." "They accept that I'm gay." "I'm the only gay person that I know in both sides of my family." "Are you excited about all this?" "Uh..." "I think so." "Yeah?" "I'm nervous." "Yeah?" "We all-- We all are." "Anxious, nervous." "We're all nervous, yeah." "I'm like, what's next, what's going on?" "Hi." "How's it going?" "Good, how are you?" "Hello." "Hi." "Hi, everyone." "Hello." "I'm Brandon." "Hi." "Brandon?" "Paul." "Hi." "Hi." "Wow." "Weird places." "And left there about five pounds heavier." "Hi." "Hi." "Hello." "How's it going?" "How are you?" "You can stop by the bar if you want." "Yeah, can I?" "I feel like it's rude." "My name's Jasen." "I'm 33 years old and I live in New York City." "I think a lot of people think if you are gay, you can't be in a monogamous relationship." "That to me is very untrue." "I'm always monogamous." "I want to be with somebody who I can wake up next to every day and share my life with, but then, like, be passionate about and have, like, really great sex and have really great conversation," "have really great moments with." "We're all gonna be friends." "All right." "So we might as well get comfortable, right?" "Sounds good." "At this point, my ears are perking up." "My radar is on full blast." "I'm still undercover and I want to know what's gonna happen when I'm not around in the house, so I am definitely digging for gold." "I think you're the tallest one here." "How tall are you?" "Well, I usually am in most places." "What are you?" "Like, six-three?" "Six-three?" "Okay." "Good call." "Nice." "Six-three also, yeah." "Okay." "I'm six-two on a good day." "Are you?" "Yeah." "I try." "Yeah, I think so." "You know, it's a strange thing, so all of my exes have been five-eleven and below." "Okay." "How does that make you feel?" "Most guys are shorter than me, so it makes it easy." "But you generally go for short guys." "Yeah, I do." "Okay." "Yeah." "I thought that we may have been a match, but I can't change what he is and isn't into, you know?" "I'm not gonna shrink, so I'm definitely thinking, exit stage left, please." "My name's Justin." "I'm 29 years old." "And I live in sunny Seattle, Washington." "I am coming into this with an open heart and an open mind." "I have no idea who I'm about to meet and who this" "Prince Charming is going to be." "Being gay isn't all pride and pageantry." "I'm a man." "I'm a man who also wants to be in love and, you know, there's a part of that that people don't realize, like, gay dating is the same as straight dating." "There's still a courtship." "There's still these nerves that you get before a first date." "Based on who's already here," "I don't know what my chances are, so..." "I'm hoping there are not that many more." "Well, hey, cheers." "Cheers, nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you." "This is really exciting." "So, yeah." "Yeah." "Do you know any of the guys here?" "Um, not yet." "Oh, actually, I do now." "That's so funny you say that." "There you go." "Yeah?" "Fate." "That's so crazy." "Oh, my God." "I know..." "I know you." "Hi." "So good to see you." "How are you?" "Good to see you, too." "I'm Chad." "I'm 32 years old." "And I live in New York City." "I came out because I fell in love with someone" "I met on the Internet when I was 19." "I have been in love before." "You don't plan for it." "You don't look for it, necessarily, when it happens." "If you're looking for it, it doesn't usually happen." "I'm not here looking for love." "I'm here being open to something great." "Are we just-- Are we waiting for one of us to announce that he's our Prince Charming?" "And he's just been listening in." "That would be weird." "Well, I'm really nervous about, you know, not being honest, or being a little sneaky, but I think this is a good way to gauge the guys, so I'm gonna try to stand back" "a little bit and just let everybody talk." "This man looks like the prototype Disney prince." "If this is my competition, I have no chance whatsoever." "Were you born in Jersey?" "I was, yeah." "Okay." "Why, were you born in Jersey, also?" "No, I just could tell." "Do I sound like a Jersey person?" "Yes..." "But I like it." "So at this point, I am very nervous because they still don't know who I am." "I think there's a room full of amazing men." "There's a room full of Prince Charmings, but the next step is to reveal that the Prince Charming in this moment is gonna be me." "Hello." "Hi." "Welcome." "How you doing?" "How you guys doing?" "I'm sure this is not intimidating at all." "No." "I'm not." "Just a little bit." "We all went through it." "My name's Brodney." "I'm 34 and I live in Atlanta, Georgia." "I went through, like, a really, really bad relationship and working out was kind of, like, my therapy, and that's when I fell in love with exercising." "I've known that I was gay ever since I was four or five years old." "You don't even know about sexuality at that age, but you know what you feel." "Are you from L.A.?" "No." "I used to live in L.A., though." "Where do you live now?" "Atlanta." "Oh, I live in Atlanta." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "That's why you look familiar." "Hi." "Right." "Hello." "Hello." "Hi." "Hi." "How are you?" "Good." "How are you?" "Are you nervous?" "You look nervous." "A little nervous." "Robert." "Charlie." "Hi." "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you as well." "Charlie walks in, he's like, dripping sweat, nervous like a deer in headlights." "Cheers." "Welcome." "Cheers." "Yeah, welcome." "Hello." "Hi." "Hi." "How are you?" "Good, how are you?" "I'm Dillon." "Hi, I'm Nick." "Nice to meet you, Dillon." "Hi." "The second face that I see when I walk in this room is this man who looks like the prototype Disney prince, and I thought, if this is my competition," "I have no chance whatsoever." "Yeah." "Hello." "Oh, how are you?" "Welcome." "Yeah." "I'm Brandon." "Danique." "Danique, nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you." "I think everyone's sizing up the competition, and right now, I am competition, 'cause they don't know who I really am." "This is perfect for me." "I'm loving it." "Hi." "How are you guys?" "How are you?" "I'm Sam." "Danique." "Nice to meet you." "Robert." "Sam, nice to meet you." "My name is Sam, I'm 31 years old and I'm from Chicago." "The dating life for me in Chicago has been very difficult." "It's kinda funny, I'll go to a bar and people are on their phones." "No one knows how to speak, you know, face to face anymore, I feel like." "I've struggled with love." "I'm not the best dater out there." "I've never had a boyfriend in my life, which is kind of strange at 31 years old." "I'm here to put myself out there in a different way." "Obviously, what I'm doing isn't working." "Ah." "Very nice, very good, very good." "Here we are." "I'm here because I'm taking a chance on love." "Now, there's no shortage of love in my life." "However, I find this to be such a unique opportunity that I'd be remiss if I were to pass this up." "Party's started, bitches!" "I joke." "I kid." "How lucky am I?" "I'm Robby." "Brodney." "Hi, Robert." "Hi, Robert." "Robby as well." "I like that name, very good." "Hi, Robby." "Oh, darling." "Can you stand it?" "Can you stand it?" "How are you?" "I'm well, Dillon." "Good to see you." "How are you?" "It's good to see you." "I think Robby's a fun person." "His, like, energy, is amazing, and he, like, exudes, like, fun." "So it's just us." "Cheers." "Cheers." "Cheers to..." "What are we "cheersing"?" "To being the last-- You were the last one." "I was the last." "They saved the best for last." "My name is Robby." "I'm 26 years old." "I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, but I live in West Hollywood, California." "I think people that don't know me find that perhaps I could be a little over the top, but then they come to realize that this is actually who I am, it's what I'm like, it's-- it's me." "I'm so grateful to have chosen to be alive during a time where" "I could be out of the closet." "Can you imagine going to an all-Catholic private high school, being on the football team and coming out of the closet at 15 years old and still having the football team rally up behind me, saying, if anyone f's with you, we'll kick their ass." "Blonde hair blue-eyed boys do absolutely nothing for me." "I like the eyes so dark you can't even see their pupils." "If you have that, we're good to go." "When are we gonna meet this guy?" "I don't know." "I'm excited to meet him." "Yeah." "What do you hope he's like?" "I mean..." "I hope he's got his shit together and..." "I don't know." "A go-getter." "Handsome." "Handsome is nice." "Handsome's very nice." "But handsome can only get you so far." "True." "You know, so hopefully, he's got," "I don't know, family oriented." "I'm really close to my family." "My family values are very important." "So the anticipation is growing." "Everybody wants to figure out who Mr. Right is, who Prince Charming is." "I'm really a genuine person, so I hope that they forgive me." "Where's Mr. Man, though?" "Maybe he's among us." "Maybe he's among us." "Is he?" "Is he among us?" "It's Lance Bass." "Hi." "Well, hey, guys." "Hey." "Is Lance Bass Prince Charming?" "Oh, my God!" "Oh!" "Unfortunately, I am not." "He's married, don't try it, queen." "Unfortunately, I'm not your Prince Charming today." "I'm already taken." "Oh!" "Lance Bass comes on through and if I didn't think we were legit before, we're definitely legit now, we're in this." "Welcome to "Finding Prince Charming."" "I'm Lance Bass and I'm gonna be with you every step of the way on this exciting new journey." "Now, I'm assuming you're all here because you want something more in your life." "Looking for that companion, that lover, someone you can share those amazing memories with and maybe grow old together." "Well, you came to the right place." "Because if you play your cards right, one of you is gonna win the heart of our Prince Charming." "During your time here, you're gonna have plenty of opportunities to go on dates, heat things up, and really create those special memories where you're tying yourselves together." "I'm sure you're curious to meet our Prince Charming." "Whoo-hoo!" "Yes!" "But before we do, we're gonna go inside because I want to play a little game with you." "Come with me." "It's about to get real." "Right now." "Okay, Lance, let's get to it." "Where's Prince Charming?" "All right, I think we all need to get to know each other a little better, so we're gonna play a little game called, tell me about your hashtag self, all right?" "So how we play this game, one at a time, you're gonna come up here, tell a little bit about yourself, and then I want you to describe yourself in one hashtag." "My hashtag would be like, hashtag, if I can find love, you can definitely find love." "All right?" "It's been hard to keep up this sneaky act, this lie, basically, so I am ready to just reveal to the guys who I am and why I had to do what I had to do." "So let's start off with Robby." "Hashtag, Lance don't make me dance." "Well, my name is Robby." "Originally from Boston, Massachusetts." "I live in Los Angeles now." "I work in the beauty business." "So my hashtag would be, hashtag, why be a nine when you could be a ten?" "I've never met anyone like Robby before, except for, like, someone in the theater or something like that." "Like, it's like a character." "Sam nudges me and he says, it's you." "And I'm" " I'm literally sweating bullets at this moment." "I am petrified, because I know that he's right, it is me." "You know, but I'll reveal myself in time." "I guess my hashtag would be, what the fuck Chuck and..." "Next up, Danique." "My name is Danique." "I am originally from Atlanta and I'm 30 years old." "I found that a lot of people really like my personality, they like me." "They just don't really want to be with me in that way." "The reason why I'm here is because this is probably the only thing that I haven't tried." "Um, what I'm looking for is someone to make me want to be barefoot and pregnant, just waiting for 'em, asking myself, what, when and why did this happen to me?" "And I guess my hashtag would be..." "Danique the freak." "Danique the freak." "I love this guy." "I think that he's full of life and I appreciate that." "Up next, let's go with..." "Paul." "Oh." "If I'd pick a hashtag, it would probably" "Hashtag perfectionist?" "I just can't get a good read on this guy." "Like, is he just being, you know, pompous?" "I am looking for that spark and my hashtag would be hopeful romantic." "Up next..." "Nick." "My hashtag would be," "I'm living for love, but haven't found it yet." "My name's Nick." "I'm 31." "And I'm from Hamilton, New Jersey." "All my life, I've always kind of approached life like love is just gonna happen and it's not working for me." "This is my opportunity to actually come here and take a huge chance to find that very special someone." "I've been in relationships before, but I definitely would say that I've never been in love." "Let's go with..." "Jasen." "Yeah!" "I'm 33." "I'm from New York City." "And my hashtag would be chemistry, 'cause it's all about chemistry for me." "My name is Brodney." "I'm a personal trainer from Atlanta, Georgia." "My hashtag would be ready for love." "Hi!" "I'm Eric." "I'm a hairstylist and I think my hashtag would be, hashtag, be myself." "Hi, everyone, I'm Dillon." "I think my hashtag would be hashtag spontaneity." "I want somebody that can take me to the next level." "I'm Chad." "I am from New York City, and if I had a hashtag, it would be hashtag flexible." "Don't take it the wrong way, don't take it the wrong way." "Who doesn't like a guy that's flexible?" "Come on." "TMI!" "What I meant is that I am mentally flexible." "I'm mentally flexible." "I can do many things at the same time." "I'm" "I'm pliable." "Well" " Well, you know what I mean." "Hi, everyone." "I'm Brandon." "If my life was a hashtag right now," "I would have to say it'd be happiness, 'cause that's all I'm really feeling right now, so I'm excited to be here." "I'm Brandon, I'm 29 and I live in Los Angeles." "I'm very confident." "I'm adventurous and I'm often ridiculous." "Me going from homeless alcoholic to where I am today," "I've learned that the greatest thing that I can do is connect with people on a day-to-day basis." "All right, up next, let's go with Charlie." "I am super nervous because I know that my hashtag is coming up and that's gonna be the big reveal." "My name is Charlie." "I am 26." "I am from Wisconsin and I live in Hermosa Beach, currently." "A lot of people are surprised to hear that I'm gay or they tell me I don't seem gay." "It's always kind of funny, because if they were to check my Internet history, they might think otherwise." "But..." "I guess my hashtag would be what the fuck Chuck and..." "I feel like Charlie's hashtag matched his personality." "All right." "Hi, guys, I'm Justin." "I live in Seattle, I'm from Portland originally." "My hashtag might be, don't limit yourself." "There you go, all right." "Up next, we're gonna go with Robert." "I am petrified, because I know that I'm gonna have to reveal to them that" "I'm the guy." "I'm Prince Charming." "My name is Robert Sepulveda, and, um..." "I am your Prince Charming." "No way!" "Really!" "Oh, my God!" "Oh, wonderful." "Oh, I love that." "Oh, that is so..." "I mean, did any of y'all have a clue at all?" "Yes." "Right here." "Totally had a clue." "Oh, my God." "I totally suspected that Robert was Prince Charming." "He looks like a walking Photoshop." "You lie like a rug!" "Super excited that Robert is our Prince Charming." "He's very prince-like, if I do say so myself." "All right, Robert." "Is there anything you'd like to say to these guys, now that they know you are our Prince Charming?" "Yeah, well, first of all, I want to apologize for being so sneaky." "Going forward now, I'm gonna be completely honest with you guys." "We're all taking a leap of faith, looking for real love." "I'm looking for my dream man and I hope that I can find that here." "Just to let you know... it's gonna be me." "Obviously, tonight was all about first impressions, so what do you think?" "I mean, some guys, I really appreciate them being so honest with me." "Other guys, it's gonna be an interesting journey." "Um..." "Don't worry, guys." "Tomorrow, you'll get another chance to make another first impression with Robert." "'Cause we're gonna have a little soiree by the pool tomorrow." "Yay." "So you'll have all day to take in some sun, and more importantly, get to know your Prince Charming." "And it's very important that you do, because, unfortunately, tomorrow night, some of you will be heading home." "I know I said hashtag chemistry as my hashtag and I felt chemistry, like, I really want to stay here and make a connection with Robert." "There are some things that I need to look for, too, because we both need to see if we're interested in each other." "All right, guys." "This is where we're gonna have to leave you." "Enjoy the house, get to know each other better." "Unfortunately, I have to take Mr. Prince Charming with me." "You'll get to see him tomorrow on your little soiree." "All right?" "Say your goodbyes." "Bye, guys." "See you tomorrow." "Robert is definitely a very, very handsome man, but I could tell he was won over by me when he first saw me." "I hope that doesn't sound cocky, but it's just..." "I know it." "Do you know him?" "Hmm?" "Do you know him?" "No, I just" "We go to the same gym, so I see him all the time, so..." "That's cool." "Eh, kinda." "But then you think about, like, what kind of impression have I made before, like, when I saw him on the machine, did I speak to him?" "Did I... da-da-da-da, da." "You know?" "So I've seen Robert before." "We've never interacted back home." "So when I walked in here to say, are there sparks between he and I," "I don't really think so." "Honestly, I felt like we made the best impressions," "I would-- I think." "I felt like I was too honest." "No, I'm afraid that I told him that all of my exes have been, like, below five-eleven." "Oh, so you think he's worried that..." "I think maybe a little, I don't know." "I need to do some damage control because I gave Robert the impression that I wouldn't be attracted to someone like him." "I'm not going to let tomorrow go by and not have that opportunity to talk to him." "Oh, all the beds are so tiny." "Well, I feel sorry for the tall guys who have to sleep in a twin bed." "Yeah, no." "Well, oh, barely." "So we all start to, like, move around the house, right?" "We're all checking it out, finding our place, and I'm like, oh, my God, I have to be in a room with four other guys and share a bathroom?" "I mean, the last time I was in a room with another person was when I was a kid with my brother." "What's your name again?" "Robby." "Okay." "What's yours, Mary?" "Um, are you always over the top like this?" "Or is this just who you are?" "It's just who I am." "Okay, I didn't know, 'cause I don't know who the hell you are." "Well, no, no, no, this is just me, me in the flesh, but honestly, it's-- What you see is what you get." "You can't make this shit up, this is like, real life." "It's real life." "Oh, you can make it up easily." "No, but he's not doing it." "Well, how do you know?" "You're gonna see." "You're gonna see." "What the hell is going on?" "Who is this kid coming into this place with all this energy and calling me darling and I love you and you are fabulous." "You don't know any of us." "You just walked in the house and" "You know, it just didn't seem authentic to me, so I called him out." "We have a Virgo on our hands, darling." "Don't get me started on the Virgo" "You speak like a Virgo." "You're a Virgo to the Nth degree." "What is a Virgo to you?" "Grounded, conservative, beige." "I'm not conservative." "I'm not beige." "Oh, you came in with a pinstriped suit, Mary." ""Why are you so fabulous?"" ""Why are you acting like this?" I didn't call you fabulous." "Oh, well, pardon me, then." "I didn't call you fabulous." "Fix your dress." "Oh, my God, okay." "Do you believe this?" "There's" " It's enough." "Do you believe this?" "Like, I think you're going too far, seriously." "I mean, point taken." "I'm going too far?" "He's calling me conservative." "He didn't say fix your dress, though, like..." "Calling my shit out, my fucking suit." "Conservative, fix your dress, like that's, like..." "I liked your suit." "You guys, let's just..." "Tone it down." "Yeah, I feel like we need to tone it down a notch." "I'm here to get to know Robert." "Why would you even engage in something so petty?" "Why would you waste your energy and time over something that is so insignificant?" "This whole night went from zero to 100 really quick." "So stupid." "Coming up next..." "No, you're not!" "Yes!" "I know a spray tan machine when I see one." "Um, are you shy or reserved?" "Um..." "Did you wear denim shorts to bed?" "I don't-- I don't wear anything to bed." "I just wore this to be nice to everybody." "Oh." "You didn't want us to be intimidated, is that what it is?" "I am excited." "Gosh, you're funny." "Today at the pool party, we get a second chance to make a first impression on Robert." "These bitches better back out of the way, because I'm gonna go full force, like, letting myself just ooze all over this guy." "When I find something that I like, I'm like, bitches, move out of the way." "What is happening in here?" "No, you're not!" "Yes!" "I know a spray tan machine when I see one." "For a pool party with Robert and these guys?" "That is exactly what I need." "All right, here we go, ready?" "I love Nick, so I tried my best to spray tan him." "All right, Nick." "Let's take you from pasty to tasty, my love." "But I'm rocking one contact lens right now, and I just" "I couldn't gauge it the right way." "That looks wonderful." "Okay." "It may look like a dirty tractor drove over me." "But I appreciate that Robby was trying to help me." "You have real abs, so I don't have" "Look at this!" "No, it's like three feet." "Jesus." "Oh!" "Whoa!" "Wonder when he's gonna get here." "Hopefully sometime soon." "Or I'm gonna just be meeting him drunk." "Slow down then." "You don't know how?" "You have one speed?" "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Honeys, I'm home." "Now that I can be the real Robert and they know who I am," "I really want to spend some time with these guys and see where they're coming from." "Hey." "Hi." "What's going on?" "Hi, boys." "How are you?" "It's important for us to really connect." "Did you sleep well?" "I did." "Did you guys?" "Because it's our first elimination tonight and there are three guys that I already have questions about." "Brandon didn't talk to me at all last night." "Nick, same thing." "Paul, yesterday, there were some unanswered questions about height and maybe I'm not his type, so I definitely want to have some time with him to talk about it." "Darling, this is so delicious." "I must get you one." "Hey, you want to get wet?" "Oh, God, wet hugs, wet hugs." "Oh, God, you look too good to get all wet, darling." "After Robert comes in, it is like shark-infested waters." "Yeah, I did." "Eric, Chad, Brandon, definitely take care of themselves, so I look forward to seeing them in the pool." "I'm excited to see Robert with his shirt off, because he already looks like he's in really great shape." "I can't imagine it would disappoint anybody." "I can tell." "Are you making friends?" "Yeah." "Do you want to go talk?" "Yeah, sure." "Dillon's extremely aggressive." "And he immediately took a big risk to be the first one to talk to Robert." "I'm half-Brazilian, half-black, so I have one brother and three sisters." "Do you have any family in Brazil?" "My dad's family is there." "Robert is someone I could totally fall for." "Dillon was the first one to grab me." "I appreciate how confident he is." "That's very attractive to me." "Danique, I'm rooting for you too, boo." "Those luscious lips." "How are you gonna do that?" "How you gonna root for me but" "Oh, my." "I don't want to be an asshole, but do you want to go inside and talk?" "Yeah." "Let's go, Sam." "My first impression of Sam was, he's not very nice." "Have you been making friends?" "Yeah, I met some good people, yeah." "It's really fun." "But it's all about connection and how you interact with Robert." "It's kind of ironic that you are the Prince Charming because, you know, I saw you and, I was like, wow, you know, he's real handsome." "What's most attractive about Robert is his eyes." "They're very piercing, almost intimidating." "I definitely could see myself with someone like Sam." "Hey." "Let's chitchat." "Where do you want to sit?" "Um..." "You" " You-- You tell me where you want to sit." "Um..." "On paper, Brodney is the perfect match." "He lives in Atlanta, he's a personal trainer." "He definitely has an amazing body." "I wanted to connect with him since the moment I saw him." "Okay, we can sit here." "But I can't figure it out." "He doesn't make eye contact." "There's something there that isn't clicking." "We have crossed paths now multiple times." "Are you shy or reserved or..." "Yeah." "Until I'm comfortable." "How long have you been single?" "Um..." "Maybe three-and-a-half, four years." "Three-and-a-half, four years?" "That's a long time." "Which is why this is so new to me." "If I don't feel safe enough to open up, I'm not gonna do it." "Pool time, Robert." "Like, this is a pool party, you know?" "But, you know, one has to put themselves out there and take a risk." "It's just how the cards have fell, I guess." "All right." "Here we go." "Oh, my goodness." "Oh, my gosh." "So hot!" "Oh, my God." "I'm dying." "Dead." "Full blown death." "Everyone here is thirstier than Tara Reid in rehab, honey." "Hi." "I'm gonna take these guys off." "I'm totally intimidated to talk to Robert." "I had some liquid motivation to build up my courage." "I'm sweating way too much." "I apologize." "Me too." "It's a hot day." "It really, really is." "I'm a sweater anyway." "I apologize." "It's our first elimination tonight, so I need to figure out who I have a connection with, and right now," "Nick is totally dripping sweat." "Sorry, this is, like, a mess." "I apologize." "Robert hadn't seen the sprayed-on abs yet and I'm hoping I never have to show him." "So, you're from Atlanta, I heard." "Have you ever been to New Jersey?" "I have." "Have you?" "Where?" "Paramus." "Oh, okay, well, yeah." "It's about an hour north from where I am, in Hamilton." "I could see myself living maybe overseas, maybe back in New York." "Okay." "Yeah." "Maybe Hamilton, New Jersey." "Yeah." "I mean..." "Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead." "Just as my conversation with Robert is really taking off," "Chad swims over and I thought, I'll be gracious." "Well" " No, no, no." "You know what?" "It's totally cool." "Why don't you guys spend some time together?" "Chad is a lot like me." "Can I sit next to you?" "Yeah." "He's playful and goofy and flexible." "I mean, you know, flexibility is good." "It's really good, at times." "You have very pretty eyes." "You too." "These old things?" "You too, Mr. Flexible." "Just call me Chad." "What is going on?" "I'm talking to Robert, and all of a sudden, like, within two minutes, everyone's closing in." "Oh, your birthday's tomorrow?" "Yeah, your birthday is tomorrow." "I know." "Have fun with that game, y'all." "It's a good one." "Brandon is athletic, handsome, but last night, it seemed like Brandon was talking to everybody else but me, so I'm a little concerned." "That's a great way to get to know someone." "You're attracted to them, so let me" "Let me ignore them." "Yeah." "Where are you from originally?" "Originally from Michigan." "Okay." "How's your family?" "So that's an involved conversation." "I was disowned at 16 for being gay." "I'm sorry to hear that." "It's okay." "It's" " It was the most profound experience." "My best friend and his mom took me in." "My parents signed power of attorney over to them, and so they're my family that, like, I talk to, people that I, you know, go home to the holidays for and, you know," "my brother just got married and, like, he's gay too, and it's a big gay Disney wedding." "Brandon is sexy." "You know, a beard is very sexy, a little facial hair, a little ruggedness." "I'm into a guy that's a guy." "Hey, guys." "Hey, Eric." "How's it going?" "Good, how are you?" "Very good." "Do you want to go inside and cool off?" "Sure, yeah." "Nice to talk to you." "Good to see you." "But you seem like..." "We're all nervous." "Yeah." "I'm nervous, you know?" "Eric has these amazing bright blue eyes and this beautiful childish smile that's just so sincere and honest." "It's" " You know, I got-- I have my eye on that." "I'm feeling more and more nervous as the day goes on that I've sabotaged myself." "How?" "Making the stupid comment about the fact that all of my exes have been five-eleven or under." "So..." "You're fine." "Let's hope so." "I guess we'll find out tonight, won't we?" "Time is ticking away and I have not had an opportunity to tell Robert my true feelings and several of the other guys have." "My little sister's actually a lesbian, so it's" "I have helped her along the path and then her coming out has helped me." "Hmm." "Wow." "I don't know why you're nervous." "You're gonna have to get over that." "Not only are you stunning, but you're more beautiful on the inside than the outside." "I was born in D.C." "My father is Dominican Puerto-Rican so I have family in Carolina and Boca Chita." "Whoo!" "Appreciate that." "Yeah, they're really stunning." "Well, that's sweet." "Um, there are people who, are, like, deliberately trying to get under other people's skin." "Oh, okay." "For their own advantage." "I'm kind of disappointed, because I was having an amazing time in the pool." "I don't need Charlie telling me about drama in the house." "It's really causing us to not connect." "I'm feeling good." "I think that I have sparked enough interest in Robert." "I'm very confident in my connection with him." "The gray hair?" "That's Paul." "Oh, Paul." "Paul." "Where's Paul?" "Robert was asking me, where is the tall gray-haired man?" "Paul wasn't making himself available." "I didn't expect anyone to just not come and talk to me, so I'm concerned." "I mean, if Paul isn't feeling a connection with me," "I'd rather him be honest with me and tell me." "I think Paul could have been a frontrunner if he grew a set of balls." "I'm incredibly nervous." "Where are Paul's balls?" "Go big or go home." "I just don't want to go home." "Hey, guys." "Hey." "I gotta get out of here." "I made some really amazing connections today, so again, thank you for being honest and sincere with me." "That's all we can do with each other, is just be real." "But I have some really hard decisions to make tonight." "Robert tells us that he's leaving and he will look forward to seeing us tonight at the elimination." "I have lost my opportunity and I am probably going to go home tonight." "I'll see you guys later tonight, okay?" "All right." "Thank you." "Bye, guys." "Bye." "Bye." "Robert!" "All of a sudden, I see Paul chasing down Robert like this desperate dog who got out of the house, chasing his parents car as it's driving on its way to work." "Sorry, um..." "I meant to talk to you earlier." "And I thought, oh, darling, this is where it ends for you." "Yeah?" "Robert just left the pool party to get ready for the big elimination tonight, and I see Paul trying to finally talk to Robert, and I just know there's just no chance that Robert is gonna enjoy that." "I... said something last night that wasn't reflective of what I actually feel." "But we had all day to spend with each other and I don't know why you think you don't need to be as vulnerable as everybody else is being." "You think you don't need to be?" "I don't get it." "It's our first elimination tonight, so I was hoping to have some one-on-one time with everybody to figure out who I have a connection with." "Paul didn't come and talk to me, so I'm concerned." "I'm thinking about why." "I" " I guess the part that is missing is that my-- my ex passed away this past Thanksgiving, and I have had a really hard time opening my heart up since then." "It's-- I'm sorry to hear that." "Thank you." "My ex came out when he was 18 and he was ostracized a lot." "That scar never healed for him." "He spent his whole life trying to prove to everyone around him that he was good enough to be here." "On Thanksgiving of last year, he decided to take his own life." "That's the hardest thing that I've ever experienced." "And I finally think that I'm ready to start putting myself out there again." "Well,thank you." "Again, I understand what you're saying now." "Paul took a risk." "I'm still not sure he's ready for a relationship, but I'm just glad that he was honest with me about it." "So, I'll see you later." "Okay?" "All right." "All right." "See you later." "Yeah." "Bye." "You okay?" "What do you need?" "Maybe a cup of coffee before the elimination ceremony, so if I get sent home, it can be with energy and pep." "I am going to wear a custom suit." "Were you able to get a good conversation in with the lover boy before he left?" "Yeah." "He didn't make me feel extremely confident." "I am petrified going into tonight's elimination." "I have no idea if I did enough to convince Robert" "I really do want to explore where things could go between us." "He's just really a genuinely kind person." "Hey, Robert." "Looking good, my friend." "Thank you." "Are you getting nervous?" "Yeah, you could say that." "Yeah." "Tonight's a big night." "Your first elimination." "Definitely." "And what does it feel like when you have 13 amazing suitors all here for you?" "It's humbling." "It makes me feel special, it makes me feel loved, it makes me feel wanted." "I want what you have." "I want a marriage." "I want, you know, someone to start a life with and that's why I'm here." "So tell me a little bit what happened today at the party." "What stood out to you?" "Everybody was having fun and opening up." "That's, to me, the most important thing." "Yesterday, everyone was really nervous and today, everyone was themselves, so I appreciated that." "Who looked the best in a swimsuit?" "Give it to me." "I won't" " I won't say." "Come on, you gotta-- I will not say." "I'm not gonna tell anybody." "All of them did." "All of them." "Tonight's the hard part." "You know, we're at 13 guys right now." "I'm gonna have to make you get rid of three." "That's tough." "It's gonna be very tough to eliminate three guys that I spent time with and opened up to me and were very vulnerable to me." "Do you feel like you know the guys that probably will be going home right now?" "Or are you still calculating this in your head?" "You know, I'm still thinking about it, but I definitely have a few guys that I'm questioning." "Paul, from the beginning, he said he didn't like guys that were over, you know, five-eleven." "Also, because of what happened to his ex," "I think that maybe he's not ready for a relationship." "All of a sudden, he was leaving and I didn't want him to make a decision before I told him, so..." "Right." "Who else?" "Who else might be on the bottom tonight?" "Um, I was thinking Brandon." "I mean, I don't know if he's here for me or if he's here just to have fun, you know, a little summer vacation, but I really need to figure out exactly what he's doing here." "Going into this elimination, I know that I did my best to have time with him and I don't think he would be careless enough to dismiss someone before he's gotten to know them." "When I went up next to him by the pool, that was, like, the most aggressive I've ever been." "Today in the pool, Charlie talked to me about, you know, he thinks that maybe some guys aren't here for the right reasons, but he's supposed to be here for our relationship." "That exchange, like, put us on a more level playing field." "I'm shy." "I'm very shy, but I'm not" "You're not-- I don't lack confidence." "On paper, Brodney is, you know, the perfect match, in a sense." "When Brodney walked in, I was like, well, this could be a good match, you know," "Atlanta, very good-looking guy." "Definitely, yeah." "But I don't know why he has his walls up." "I'm not able to be vulnerable at all, and people take that as me being closed off." "Well, Robert, the time has come." "I'm gonna give you a minute to go over your thoughts, and then I'm gonna need a decision." "Okay." "All right?" "I'll see you out there." "All right." "It's gonna be tough to let these guys go, because I'm a very empathetic person and everyone has their feelings on the line here." "I respect each of these guys a lot, so it's gonna be very painful." "Oh, God, here we go." "As I'm walking up for elimination," "I'm so freaking nervous." "I feel like all these emotions come up." "Honestly, I'm here for love, and for me, Robert is the perfect fit." "Robert is very, very attractive." "I felt like we really connected." "I would be devastated if I was sent home tonight." "Good evening, gentlemen." "You're all looking very nice tonight." "Welcome to our first black tie affair." "You getting nervous?" "Excited?" "Both." "The black tie affair is all about connection." "If Robert feels that there has been a connection developed, he'll offer a black tie." "However, if the spark isn't there, you will not receive a tie and your time here will be done." "Hey, guys." "Hi." "How's everybody doing?" "Okay." "I think tonight Robert literally is Prince Charming." "Tall, dark, handsome." "He's just so cute." "He's cute." "He's just, like, cute." "And now, Robert has a very difficult decision to make, because three of you are gonna be going home." "It's time to get things started." "Eric." "Please step forward." "How are you?" "I'm good." "You seem like a super sweet guy." "Um..." "I've enjoyed getting to know you." "So, will you wear a tie?" "Yeah." "Okay." "All right." "Get back there." "I am not surprised at all." "Eric is extremely handsome and really inspiring, and I think Eric and myself are going to give everyone a good run for their money." "Dillon." "How are you, Dillon?" "How are you?" "I'm okay." "Are you nervous?" "Am I?" "Yeah." "Yes." "Well..." "It's been nice getting to know you today and I want to get to know you more." "So, will you wear this tie?" "Is that a question?" "Yes." "Okay." "Like, my heart is, like, falling out of my chest right now." "Brandon." "I really felt a spark at the pool party." "If I went home tonight, it would be a huge blow to the ego." "We haven't really gotten a lot of time to get to know each other." "Um..." "And I hope we get a little more time, you know, in the coming weeks, so will you wear a tie?" "Of course." "Okay." "Robert is freely giving these ties away." "Thank you." "And with each passing tie..." "Mr. Flexible." "I start getting more nervous." "That's a nice tie." "I like that." "You like it?" "I do like it." "Here you go." "Thank you so much." "All right." "Charlie, get up here." "I'm not very nervous." "I think that I'm staying for at least one more night." "Um..." "You know, I just didn't feel a connection today." "Yeah." "Immediately, I can feel Robert's tone change." "I know Charlie is going home." "His hashtag enough was, like, it was foreshadowing." "He foreshadowed it." "In the pool today, you were only talking about other people." "So, I'm sorry, but tonight, you're not gonna get a tie." "Thank you for being here." "Yeah." "Absolutely." "I feel an instant sense of relief." "That's one less elimination spot that I'm gonna have to face." "I'm happy to see Charlie go home." "All right." "Five left." "Only three ties to give out." "Sam." "How are you, Sam?" "I'm good, how are you?" "It's been great getting to know you." "And..." "Sam, I like you." "Will you wear the tie?" "Absolutely." "Whew." "Nick." "How are you, Nick?" "Good, how are you?" "I'm okay." "I can feel his serious tone." "I'm hoping it's not the serious tone he used with Charlie." "I think you're a great guy and I wouldn't want to keep you here unless I knew that there was a strong connection." "But I'm sorry." "You're not gonna be receiving a tie tonight." "Okay?" "It was great to meet you." "Good luck to you in everything." "Bye, Nick." "Three handsome men left." "Only two ties left." "Danique." "Danique, today we had a very good conversation." "So, will you wear a tie?" "Yes, of course." "Thank you." "Thank you." "I'm petrified." "There are two people remaining and one tie left." "Brodney and Paul, can you please step up?" "Brodney is strikingly attractive, so I'm pretty sure I'm going to be going home." "I'm really nervous." "I'm ready for love, but Robert might not think that I really opened up as strong as I needed to." "Robert has to make a difficult decision." "Brodney and Paul, can you please step up?" "If Robert sends me home tonight, I might have missed out on an opportunity that I won't have again in my life." "I hope that Robert sees that I'm a genuine person and that what I've given is authentic." "Paul, let's be frank." "A couple times, you told me that you are into, you know, much shorter guys." "If you're not attracted to me, then what are you doing here?" "I hope to show you that I am more than willing to move forward with you." "Brodney." "On paper, you're perfect." "You know, we live in the same city, we're both athletic, but I tried to find a connection with you and it just seems that you have a wall up." "That's an issue for me." "I am somewhat guarded, but I do know that if given the space to feel that I can be vulnerable," "I know how to open up." "This isn't the easiest of decisions, but it's a decision that has to be made." "Brodney..." "I'm sorry." "Tonight, you're not gonna receive a tie." "I understand." "But it's been wonderful getting to know you." "Thank you." "So, thank you for being here." "I appreciate it." "Can I hug you?" "Yeah." "Thank you." "I'll see you in Atlanta." "All right." "Good luck, everybody." "Will you wear a tie?" "I would love to." "You're not-- You know..." "I'm watching you." "There you go." "I'll see you later." "Thank you." "This experience is not a game." "We are not playing for a trophy." "We are all opening ourselves up to the opportunity to potentially find the person that we're spending the rest of our lives with and I realized that I need to take advantage of that." "Well, gentlemen, that must feel pretty good." "Yeah." "Are we a little less nervous now?" "No." "All right, guys." "Have a good night." "Good night, guys." "Good night." "Thank you." "This has been one of the hardest nights of my life and I know that it's only gonna get harder." "But there's ten amazing guys remaining, and I hope one of these guys could be the one for me and I look forward to getting to know them better." "Robert says that he's looking for someone to be authentic, so I just want him to be authentic." "He should create a space, if he wants people to open up to him." "He did say that there was no connection, but I feel like I made room for the others, and I feel like in life and in relationships, you have to leave room for other people, so I think I was doing the gracious thing." "I think there are some ungracious people that are still in the house." "I made it, like, abundantly clear that I was looking out for his best interest and I guess he didn't see that." "Welcome to "Finding Prince Charming."" "There he is!" "A real-life James Bond." "I'm here to find the love of my life." "I'm here to find my partner." "And I know that love is very close." "No longer about just being in a house full of guys vying for the attention of some Prince Charming who we don't know." "It is real." "Are you falling in love?" "My heart is definitely falling in love with several of the guys." "Who wants the next date with Robert?" "Let me see what you got." "We have feelings for the same guy." "And it's absolutely crazy in this house now." "You're a fucking liar, dude." "Some people think that this is a game." "I never came onto you." "Some people are playing dirty." "It's dangerous to have a friendship in this house." "I don't think that anybody expected for this to happen." "Give me a break." "No one's gonna fucking bite me 'cause I'll fucking attack." "Red flag." "Where the fuck are you?" "What the fuck is happening?" "I'm calling the cops." "I'm calling the cops." "I don't want this to just be a moment in time." "I want this to be something long-lasting." "I need to figure out what the guys are really here for." "For me to be happy as a person," "I need to find love again." "I really care about him." "I'm gonna tell him tonight." "Just be a good boy." "I am a good boy." "My mind's spinning, emotional." "I have to make a decision." "Just knowing that I have to let someone down is difficult." "We are here because we want to meet our Prince Charming." "We just got a letter!" "But we are a part of something so much bigger." "Every gay man understands what it's like to be an underdog." "Cheers!" "We need each other more than ever." "Ooh!" "He dances like Mrs. Doubtfire." "Oh, my God!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "To you guys." "I want to fall in love." "Everyone deserves love."
