Avery pulls up to Ryan’s house to pick him up. Ryan gets in the car, objecting to Avery’s request to go inside to pee. He tells Avery to pull into a McDonald’s parking lot to use their bathroom. Avery complies but doesn’t explain to Ryan that using public bathrooms is uncomfortable for him, because some people object to him using the men’s room. When he comes back, Ryan explains that he wants to introduce Avery to his friends. Avery agrees, but Ryan first has other plans.

Cooper goes back to the Starbucks and scrolls through the dating app again, trying to find someone for one last fling—but he changes his mind and instead, he goes through his messages and insults the men who have messaged him until they block him. He blocks a man who recognizes his anger as a cry for help. He blocks another man who wants to meet up with him for sex. He feels some excitement insulting people and getting blocked, so he continues until the app bans him. Then he goes to Facebook and trolls on celebrity pages until he gets banned from Facebook. He does the same on every social media site until he’s banned from all of them.
