A great episode on online dating. Very much reminded me of the "First Date" episode (S2, E4) in Master of None.
Dave quickly puts Doja Cat on a pedestal and gets disappointed just as fast. We get a glimpse into Doja's reality - she stole the show in this episode - and understand how draining and superficial celebrity life can be. Anonymous internet users insult her, work partners are uncooperative, and guys she wants to go on dates with (Dave) are insecure and jump to conclusions.
It's a commentary on everything that is wrong with online dating and modern romance. Users are always on the lookout for the next better option and don't hesitate to cancel last minute for a potentially more "rewarding" date. It happens to Dave, it happens to his Plan B, and then it happens to his Plan B's date: a white guy ordering gumbo at a fine dining restaurant. Once he learns his date won't make it, he just goes back to swiping (which cracked me up).
Best episode of season 2 so far.
