Premise

Three guys are invited into Slade's house, every week to live with him and compete for Jo's heart. Every day, one of Jo's friends deliver a red and white polka dot box containing a note and a clue hinting at the days events, to her house.

The Premiere

Season 1, Episode 1
  • Winner: David
  • Eliminated: Martin, Michael, Nelson


It starts out with the four guys being brought to the house and introduced to Slade after the news that their brief residence is, in fact, his house. They are shown their small living quarters, 4 twin beds in a cramped room with one bathroom.
They have all planned dates and Martin, the real estate salesman goes first. He takes Jo to a restaurant, which he has shut down just for them. He cooks her a meal in the restaurant's kitchen with minimal help from Jo. They then go dancing in the restaurant. She reveals that she likes a man in an apron but doesn't like that she had hardly talked. Slade agrees with Myia that Jo has hardly put a word in. When Martin gets back he refuses to talk about the date.
Slade wakes Michael up in the morning and Michael says "It's weird to be woken up by the ex-fiancee of the woman you are trying to pursue." He takes Jo out on a boat to teach her to fish. Jo only catches a small fish but seems satisfied. Michael taught her how to gut a fish, much to her displeasure. They then went out on the bow of the boat and had breakfast. Not unlike Martin, Michael refuses to talk about his date. David's date starts with him blindfolding her with a Louis Vouitton scarf and leading her up to the roof. There is a private helicopter and champagne. Jo calls Martin cocky. They enjoy champagne then climb into the helicopter for a ride around Los Angeles

The last part of the date is shooting each other with water guns on the beach.
Slade approaches David before elimination and tells him that he doesn't feel that he can trust him and that he is to drop out.
