He nailed the awkward date. The "I'm sure you've got hands" and proceeded with the conversation part finished me. One of my favorites thus far.

[@NkazimuloNxumalo-p9x]

They way Maps said in "Estrogen" instead "woman" 😂😂, he's so sly with his words

[@nthabisengwelheminamofoken2091]

Right, I think more people would have gotten it if he said “I don’t think that is something I Shudu (should do) but you tell Abigail …” when Lasizwe asked for a second date

[@busisiwezulu5508]

Is he really dating the ex Miss SA Shudufatso Musida?😮

[@timm7018]

[@PhumzileGladysMaseko-vi3qp]

Maps is seriously smart! When you talk to someone like that, you gotta be careful with what you say and how you say it because they're super observant and direct. It can also be pretty intimidating, you know? When Lasizwe was talking to Maps it was so awkward. I felt uncomfortable the whole time watching this.Love it

[@dorcasmofosi3247]

And I think for Lasizwe, he’s moving out of his comfort zone coz he started with his friends. I hope he grows from this date as he improves the caliber of his invitees.

[@Ntsako_tsakie]

Yoh just imagine you are on a date and your IQ is being tested 😂😂maps's questions though 😂😂

[@browney5791]

Maps sarcasm is borderline condescending. Intelligent people speak to be understood and not to sound smart because they know what communication is. Otherwise you might at well be talking to yourself, what’s the point other than to appear to be all knowing? I also think it’s probably because he was made to wait for the host and he got irritated. Also the whole date was him trying to put Laziswe down and try to make him seem dumb with comments he knew might fly over him. One can be smart/intelligent and still be kind. Ps: I loved his eye contact though. That way you know a person is listening and reading your subtle body language as well. Loved how Lasizwe was oblivious to the shade. So childlike 🥰

[@unhinged_vin]

Oh my! Thank you sm, the accuracy there is unmatched 🙌🏾

[@gugusithole2947]

I found Maps mean and condescending towards Lasizwe. The comment about the dentist was straight out of mean girls textbook. Then, the sugar packet psychology was strange but it seemed to have worked on Lasizwe.
