Ep 13. Angel & Jordan

Angel and Jordan have an unusual online relationship that has lasted for almost a year, with Angel never having met Jordan in person. Jordan tells Angel that he is a model, which puts Angel under a lot of pressure to look her best since meeting him would be a dream come true. It is apparent that Angel is insecure about her looks, and as the episode goes on, it becomes clear that the situation is even more complicated than it seems.

Angel receives a lot of messages from Jordan but never hears his voice. This puts her in doubt about the authenticity of their relationship, and she starts to worry that Jordan may not be who he says he is. She has tried to video call him but has never succeeded in seeing his face, which Jordan attributes to his phone camera not working. Meanwhile, Angel's friends and family are urging her to be cautious and not invest too much emotionally in someone she has never met.

As things progress, Angel reaches out to Nev and Max to help her find out who Jordan is in real life. The two hosts begin their investigation by looking at Jordan's social media profile and photos and find that they have a different understanding of what it means to be a model. As they dig deeper, they discover that Jordan may not be the person he claims to be.

The team arranges a meeting with Angel, and they all travel to meet her in person. While waiting for Jordan to arrive, Max and Nev speak with Angel and try to understand how she feels. It is clear that Angel is nervous about the impending meeting, and she is unsure of what to expect. She admits to Nev and Max that she has never met anyone online before, but she is hoping that Jordan will be the one.

When Jordan arrives, things take an unexpected turn as Nev and Max confront him about his identity. It becomes evident that Jordan has been lying about being a model, and he even admits that he has been using someone else's pictures all along. Angel is heartbroken, feeling like she has wasted so much time and energy on a lie. Jordan tries to apologize, but Angel is not having it.

The episode ends with Angel reflecting on the experience and how she is going to move forward. Nev, Max, and Angel have a heart-to-heart, where they discuss the importance of being truthful in relationships. Angel ultimately decides to forgive Jordan, but she also acknowledges that they are not meant to be together.
