Larissa & Anthony is an episode from the fifth season of Catfish: The TV Show. The episode tells the story of two individuals, Larissa and Anthony, who initially met on a dating app. Larissa, a 21-year-old woman from Texas, had been chatting with Anthony, a 24-year-old man from New York, for six months. They had even exchanged "I love yous" and discussed the possibility of meeting in person.

However, things took a turn for the worse when Anthony's phone broke, and he asked Larissa to send him money to buy a new one. She obliged, sending him $400, but soon after, Anthony disappeared, and Larissa was unable to reach him. She later discovered that his real name wasn't Anthony, and the person she thought she knew was an imposter.

Enter hosts Nev Schulman and Max Joseph, who are contacted by Larissa to help her find out the truth about the man she had been talking to. They delve into the mystery by reaching out to Anthony's supposed friends and family, as well as conducting a background check on his name.

As they investigate, the hosts discover that Anthony's true identity is not that of a young man from New York but rather an older man living in a different part of the country. They also uncover a series of lies that had been told to Larissa, including pictures of other men that had been used in Anthony's place.

The episode takes a dramatic turn when Nev and Max fly to Texas to meet with Larissa and confront the person who duped her. They sit down with Larissa and the imposter, who reveals the truth about his identity and his motivations for deceiving her. The hosts help Larissa come to terms with the fact that the person she had fallen in love with did not exist and offer her advice on how to move forward.

Through Larissa and Anthony's story, Catfish: The TV Show examines the dangers of online dating and the importance of being cautious when meeting someone new. The episode highlights the vulnerability that can come with forming relationships online and serves as a warning for viewers to be wary of people who may not be who they claim to be.
