Colby Wadsworth left Season 12 a few episodes ago with his shirt off, single, and the only person in the room to describe his sexuality as "Bugs Bunny." When that episode wrapped, he kissed his roommate. He has a chubby cat named Fat Nancy who screams at him when he tries to cut back her meals. He's gullible ("you show me a little attention, you can do pretty much whatever"), avoidant, in therapy about it, and has been called a diva by multiple people. He prefers to drive. He is not looking for someone nice.King Colbey is 27, a part-time model and full-time homebody who works at a nonprofit, spends his days around kids and housing programs, and got brought back as our Season 12 finale King after a standout run as a contestant in Episode 2. He's a Taurus. He does backflips. He is aggressively anti-AI and will tell you so. He grew up unhoused, moving place to place, and getting people a roof over their heads is near and dear to him. He's looking for someone decisive — someone who can plan, lead, and pull him out of his own head — without making it her whole job.Three blind dates. Ten minutes each. A trip to the Minneapolis Rodeo on the line. And then the floor opens up.Date 1: Lexi — 26, national champion pom dancer, med-spa marketer, cat mom whose Korean mom signed her up without telling her. He'd just called a cat photo in the first ten minutes a borderline red flag. She pulled hers in sixty seconds. Connect the dots.Date 2: Haley — 23, legal assistant by day, Solidcore coach by night, competitive about literally everything, says she keeps getting cast on dating shows and can't commit to any of them. Six-four-and-a-half-inch height check turned her into "a victim of the system." Likes a man who's a little mean. He'd just said that was his thing.Date 3: Maggie — 28, nurse, dog mom, Taurus, has watched every WW2 documentary ever made. Accidentally dated a married man — met the kids, read them bedtime stories — so her standards are sky high. Showed up in cowboy boots before she'd won a single thing. She already knew.Then came Shoot Your Shot. No surprise date, no script — just whoever in the room had the nerve to walk up. Four did. One of them was a man, and he came with a meter, a f**k-marry-kill, and a follow-up question nobody on stage saw coming. Two made it into the final lineup.Hosted by Tobi Shamu. Live at Graze in Minneapolis's North Loop. Season 12, Episode 5 — the Finale.
