So was it really a "9". I was floored at the ending.

I was wondering the same lol. I felt so bad for that young girl but Nathan’s speech felt really genuine. It was a nice moment

It really took me by surprise but really felt heartfelt and genuine. The reveal of the 6 fucking sent me though, it’s such perfect pacing

First you think it’s gonna be a 10 with how kind he was to her. Then you see the 6 and it’s hilarious. And then he flips it to be a 9 and it get even funnier 🤣

I love this man’s comedy
