42.365 - 48.571 Gabby

So Sierra's like, um, the pregnant lady is probably going to be Gabby. And Gabby's like, don't put that on me, especially in Jersey.

52.008 - 75.181 Carl

don't say the P word in the new and the NJ state. So now Carl and Carl's talking to Lil and, um, he's like, so hot. I'm sweating right now. I gotta say hello. I gotta cool off. And then people were drinking and enjoying it and everything. And people are eating stuff. And, and then Lil is, um, talking to Sierra saying, um, That's just like small talk around the party.

75.201 - 93.038 Carl

So finally, Carl is like, you know, so the plan is to have a space ready for January of 2025. But in the meantime, our Sprinter van is going to be doing pop ups all around the city. So get excited in the cold winter to stand outside on the sidewalk and drink some non-alcoholic drinks.

94.321 - 121.112 Gabby

Let me tell you the most popular time for people to want spreads. January. Huge time. Huge, huge time. So Jesse, Gabby, and Paige all sit down and talk. And Jesse's being like, hey, guys. It's so gorgeous. So they get right into it. And Paige is like, so did you see Lexi this week? And he's like, no, Paige. No, Paige. And she's like, well, did you or didn't you? Yeah. Did you miss her?

121.132 - 131.706 Gabby

I missed her. I missed her. Did you go on a cute little date? We went on our second or third date. Did you tell her you sucked her toe? Let's just get to it. I'm bored with you. Your charm does not work on me.

134.58 - 159.077 Carl

I'm just staring at the dent in your chest. So he's like, I mean, listen, we both know that we're not pursuing other people. Okay. All right. That's great. So do you want that? Yeah. I want to give it a try. I feel like I'm ready for it. Wow. That was amazing how little conviction you have in that. That was like the OJ Simpson trial of answers. There was zero conviction.

159.838 - 180.162 Gabby

And Gabby's like, so you had to talk about being exclusive? You really want that? You? And he's like, I mean, yeah. Like, listen, there's no guy on the planet who's going to be like, wow, can't wait to have sex with one woman for the rest of my life, right? I mean, come on. Like, no guy's going to think that.

181.293 - 188.676 Carl

And Kathy's like, um, I think that's exactly what it's supposed to be. Like that's the whole point.

Chapter 2: How did Carl's Soft Bar concept launch event unfold?

613.178 - 639.114 Carl

Wait a second. Where's the cafe area of this Walgreens? And that's why I'm launching tables. And people can sit at them if they want to. Yeah. They're called soft tables. And they don't really stand up, but they're soft and they're nice. So anyway, so Brian and I hit it off about six months ago, and we started workshopping this concept of tables and chairs in a 7-Eleven. And that didn't work out.

0

639.174 - 654.782 Carl

But either way, I'm very passionate about this space because I've seen people not only like myself in recovery needing an option and needing alternatives, but I've seen people that are pregnant, wild, raging bitches who are pregnant, who are mean and don't answer phone calls and are really cruel to people who broke up with them. And there's space for them.

0

654.842 - 656.363 Carl

They need to have a space to be able to drink things.

0

656.963 - 668.086 Gabby

Listen, people who have railed against brick and mortar, even they deserve a chance to sit in a 7-Eleven and drink some non-alcohol. Am I right? So here we go. Soft. People. Everybody. Oh, sorry. Go ahead.

0

668.286 - 677.049 Carl

Go ahead, me. I was just going to say, people who are really nasty human beings but give really good, hard, and tender hugs, they deserve a place to drink and to sit while they do it.

678.646 - 696.58 Gabby

Uh, everybody, this has been an amazing ride in the van from Manhattan, which is where we came from. So thanks, man. Everybody should get a van, really. Uh, thanks for coming. Okay. Uh, if anybody has a news twist on paper towels, I would buy some right now because I'm really sweating like a dog. So that would be great.

697.24 - 718.361 Carl

thanks so after this after well carl goes off to towel down his layer of sweat gabby and bailey sit on lawn chair so bailey's gonna get to actually be in like a group combo which is very exciting and jesse sits down he's holding two drinks and sierra's like jesse are you double fisting and i was like enough about the foursome okay can we just like talk about the scene

719.922 - 733.911 Gabby

Oh, well, I figured I'm mixing water. You know, I'm going to loopy from all the benefits. That's what's going on here. And so it's like, yeah, I heard about the toe sucking. So that was good for you. I was like, wait, what? You gross.

735.276 - 754.052 Carl

Well, I went into Emerald's room to see who he was having a threesome with, which, by the way, I feel like not enough time has been also spent with the idea that he just walked into a threesome. Like, I actually think that's, like, A, it's crazy. It's also, like, it's inappropriate. Like, they're having sexy times. You don't just, like, walk in on people having sex.

Chapter 3: What drama involves Jesse and his interactions with others?

1436.364 - 1438.866 Gabby

This is like Gabby's best episode of the year so far.

0

1439.026 - 1444.29 Carl

I agree. She's been so quiet all season, but like this episode, she is speaking to my soul.

0

1444.87 - 1463.816 Gabby

So they make teams and stuff, and Lindsay and Gabby are talking, and she's like, how was that, like, how was that, like, whatever you went to? Like, I don't even know what to call it. And Gabby's like, it was like a friends and family soft opening thing in New Jersey. Yeah.

0

1464.952 - 1469.514 Carl

And so Lindsay, the way Lindsay goes in on this was so funny.

0

1469.574 - 1484.26 Lexi

She's like, I mean, there's a lot of reasons why I didn't go, but most of which I've already wasted so much time on this, man. I'm not going to waste two hours there, two hours back for something that's not even opening. I don't need to once again celebrate you talking about doing something in the

1484.38 - 1511.353 Carl

future like it's still an inaction and he wasted more money i just like i can't i was like oh my god she's so i didn't even think about that but it's true like it's just more money spent on something that's like not even opening this isn't an opening this is just something to you know to say that you're doing something but you're not actually doing anything well in his defense which i can't even believe i'm going to defend him but in his defense you know he's starting small he's starting with what he can afford the van he's got the drinks he's got the ice

1512.253 - 1519.181 Gabby

So that's something. And he's putting it on TV to hopefully raise some money from viewers, which apparently he does have partners plan.

1519.662 - 1544.047 Carl

Yeah. It's not unlike Sonia Morgan's Sonia Morgan's whole like friends and family fashion show that she did, though. And then, well, to be fair, Tonya did finally get into that until, like, what was it? Century 21. And then Century 21 closed. Yeah. So, anyway, Gabby is like, yeah. She's like, yeah, it was an expensive event. I mean, like, and I appreciate that he had a ceviche.

1544.107 - 1547.991 Carl

And he's like, ceviche? Okay. And there was burrata and there was shrimp. She's like, okay, great.
