The episode features a dating show called "The Button" where contestants go on speed dates and can press a button to swap out their date for a new person if it's not going well. The episode showcases several dates, each with its own awkward and humorous moments.
One date features a 19-year-old who looks much older and has kids, which is a major turn-off for his date. Another date features a tall, fashionable man who is initially charming but ultimately gets rejected.
A third date features a man who brings a silent puppet to the date, which is a major creep factor for his date. Despite this, the date somehow manages to work out, with the woman even complimenting the puppet.
A fourth date features a woman who is a professional cuddler and a man who is a drug dealer and jewelry maker. The date is surprisingly successful, with the two hitting it off.
The final date features a man named Thurston who is a bit of a bad boy and a woman who is a Capricorn. The date is initially promising but ultimately becomes boring as they discuss their zodiac signs. Despite this, the two seem to connect and are interested in a second date.
The episode ends with a fairy tale ending for the final couple, with the man pulling up to pick up his date in his parents' minivan. The episode concludes with a promise to see the contestants on the next episode of "The Button."
