Queer Eye | Full Episode | Where There’s a Will... | Netflix

(bright music) - [Jonathan] Oh my God, there is Benjamin Franklin's house. - [Group] Ooh! - Don't you realize that literally, Alexander Hamilton probably invented the economy in that very building? - He did? - Yeah. - Ah. - Ugh, gorgeous Philly. Yes, we're here, we're ready, yay! Our hero this week is William Holmes, AKA, which I don't know if you knew this, but that stands for as known as- - Holmes. - Holmes? - Yeah, like Sherlock Holmes, honey. - Ooh. - I'm a man with a plan. I'm preparing for

the future, and the sooner you prepare yourself, the better. - He's 26. He's born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. - Brooklyn boy! - Yes. (group laughs) A year and a half ago, Holmes relocated to Philly from Brooklyn to take a job as a lead supply attendant for Delta Air Lines at the Philadelphia International Airport. - Wow. - Love a strong title. - He has been working for Delta for the last seven years, and he's been promoted four times. Que official! (group laughs) (upbeat music) His nomina

tor is Judy, the station manager for Delta. - Holmes is young, but he has such an old soul. He has a lot going on for him. I see potential in him. - And don't forget, Rose, gorgeous name, which is his girlfriend of 7+ years. - That's a long time to grow as an individual, and I know a lot about him, inside and out, and every day, I love him more. - Wow, he's got like commitment all over the place. (upbeat music) Holmes and Rose are in a long-distance relationship, otherwise known as an LDR. - The

transition from him living in Brooklyn to Philadelphia has been a little bit difficult. We switch off weekends from time to time. Sometimes, we'll meet in the middle. - Holmes lives with four roommates in his first-ever apartment. Congrats! But stays to himself in his room. When Rose visits, they tend to stay in to keep costs low. - He's heavily burdened with the student loans that he had that debt, and he felt, until he can pay it off, he's not living for today. - As most millennials know, stu

dent loan debt, or just debt in general is what's really slowing our generation down. - He lives such a minimalist lifestyle. - Sometimes, having a bag of chips on a weekend is my cheat day. - Because he puts all of his effort toward paying off his debt. - One thing that I will take the grave with me that my grandma taught me is to look out after yourself. - His grandmother recently passed away, but because he was raised by his grandparents, he's really grounded and he thinks that he should be s

omewhere different in life right now and his debt is kind of holding him back. - The fun will come later. That's the way I see it. (upbeat music) - We are 26 years old. You're only young once, and he calls his grandfather Pops. So sometimes, I'll be like, okay, Pops, we're going out, like we're going out. We're too young for this. Let's go. (upbeat music) - Beyond picking lint out of his hair in the morning, he doesn't touch much. When he's not wearing his work uniform, Holmes is all about comfo

rt. - Comfort over fashion is fashion. (upbeat music) - Maybe when he is referring to comfort, he means making no effort at all. - Like Uggs. (group laughs) - Rose is coming this weekend, and he needs the Fab 5 to help him show Rose that he's still the spontaneous man she loves. - Aww. - I want the world to actually get a good vision of who Will actually is, and not just his budgeting that has created this new version of himself. (upbeat music) - He's 26 years old. He really needs work/life bala

nce. - Our mission this week is to make like gorgeous Bette Midler and become the wind beneath Holmes' wings. Launch him into his gorgeous future. - [Group] Yeah! (upbeat music) ♪ You came into my life ♪ ♪ And my world never looked so bright, yeah ♪ ♪ It's true, you bring out the best in me ♪ ♪ When you are around ♪ ♪ Things keep getting better ♪ ♪ Yeah, yeah ♪ ♪ Things keep getting better ♪ (upbeat music) ♪ Better ♪ ♪ All things just keep getting better ♪ (cymbals crashing) (upbeat music) (plan

e engines roaring) (announcer speaking indistinctly) - Okay, so we're approaching Philly International. We're gonna meet Judy on the curbside, and then we're gonna go meet Holmes. Oh my gosh, there she is. (horns honking) Hi! - Hey, guys. - How nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you. Hey! - Hi! - You have such a great personality, Judy, and look good, yes! - We're gonna take you to meet Holmes. - Yeah! - Ready for this? - Yes. - Let's do it. - All right. - [Tan] Are you taking us in a separate car

? - [Judy] Yes, we're gonna take you in a separate car. - I feel so very VIP right now. The fact that Judy is bringing us in from the back door to the tarmac? - Let's go. - I feel like we're Beyonce right now because this is some next-level access. - [Tan] It's all so secretive. (mysterious adventure music) - Is that him right there? - Oh, there he is. - Come on, Tanny. - Hey! (group laughing) - Hi, Holmes. - Nice to meet you. - What are you up to? What are you doing? - I am currently going thro

ugh my list of parts that were supposed to come off this plane here. - Is he doing a good job? - He's doing an excellent job. - Of course. Top notch. - He is super handsome, incredible smile, like he just is jolly. I can see why Judy nominated him. - Are you mostly outside for your job? - Mostly, I'm inside in my office. - Okay. - Can you show us your office, then? - Yeah, come on. - So we can see. - Are we yelling? I can't tell. (upbeat music) - This way, guys. This is where the parts are store

d and located, different parts for the aircraft. - Oh. - Y'all be careful. - Oh, my gosh. This is one of my favorite people of all time. (laughs) I don't know if there's any better energy you could possible have gazing upon you on a daily basis. Happy, gorgeous, Bob Ross. - Even when I mess up, you know, I just think of the happy trees. - It's the happy trees. - There's no mistakes. - Love that. - This is my fridge here. - [Antoni] I really appreciate the no aircraft parts in the fridge. - Yes,

this is what I bring for lunch. I meal prep, I have a little salad, a little rice, peas, carrots. (phone ringing) - How can I help you? The flight is on its way, so I'll send them right over. Can you go ahead and get me a part, Tan? - I sure can. - Thanks. - Here's those files you were asking for. - Thank you so much, I needed these. - [Tan] Oh, you dropped something on the floor. - Oh. (Tan yells) (group laughs) - [Tan] That was way too see-through. - So you prepare your dishes at the beginning

of the week- - Every Sunday. - For the entire week, usually? - Yep. - And then, you're all set. - All set for the week. - Why do you do that? - Saves time, you know? - Yeah. - It's just easier and you know what you're gonna have, you know what's going into your body. - He's got his meal prep figured out. But I'm not seeing a lot of joy in the everyday. Life gets redundant. You've gotta keep it exciting. - We've seen airplanes. We've seen where you work. I wanna see where you live. - Come on. -

All right. (upbeat music) - Is this your home right here? - Oh, yep, yep, just pull in right here. That's my house. - We're home. (upbeat music) - [Bobby] I'm so excited to see your home. (upbeat music) - Come on in. - It's a good sized kitchen. - Your kitchen is very clean. - Who did the house rules? - And who laminated them, because I already love them? - [Holmes] That's the landlord's idea. - Oh, I like that. - Your landlord's a Virgo. (group laughs) - I know you share with four other people,

but how long have you been living here? - About 13, 14 months now. - You've been here for over a year? - Yes. - Is there a reason why you haven't put any furniture in here? - Um, I don't really see the necessity to put furniture out here. - In a shared space. - Why? - 'Cause my room is where I have all my- - Oh, let's go look at it. - Okay, right behind you. (upbeat music) - Come on in. - Here, Tanny. - Ooh. - I love how much, like Delta pride you have, you know? - [Holmes] Everywhere. - [Jonat

han] Ah, I love that picture of Seoul. - These places that you've visited, or that you wanna visit? - I haven't been to Seoul yet or Paris, but I have been to 20 different countries and 38 states. - What was your favorite? - Thailand was my favorite so far. - Have you guys ever been together? - Last April, Rose and I went to Japan together. - Aw, we were in Japan. - Whose art is this? - Rose and I, we did a sip and paint. - Oh, I like that. - A bottle of wine, we sat on the floor. - Is that what

you two do for date night, you'll stay in and do stuff just at home? - Yeah. - Does she love that? Is that her favorite thing to do? - Well, after a hard week or work, we just wanna just really just be- - We or you? - We or you, yeah. - We or I? - Okay, so I, after a long, hard week, feel it's more important just to stay here, you know, in my 10x10. - If I was Holmes' girlfriend, Rose, I would not wanna hang out here. This looks like a tiny prison. Ain't nobody staying in this room. Can we look

around some more? - By all means. - Ooh, here we go. He does do meal prep. He's not kidding around. (upbeat music) (Jonathan gasping) - Who is this little guy? I'll make this tree happy. Do you know, the little happy trees and the little happy clouds. - It's not the worst. He's got hoodies, but I don't mind that. - Look at this. - Oh my. - Ooh. - The self-care product population in Holmes' bathroom is, you know, it's a good little village in Eastern Ukraine, like in the winter. - Why are there

no chairs for this wobbly table? - [Bobby] I have a feeling they probably all eat in their bedrooms. - Oh. - [Tan] I like the sneakers, actually. - Bills, bills, bills. FHA loan, car insurance, students, is this all his debt? - Step into my office. - Okay. - So I see that you have a very regimented kitchen schedule. - Yes. - I don't see one in here. - No. - There's no bathroom do's and don'ts. - Thank God. - Now, how does your confidence relate to the way that you present yourself? - I feel like

, when I look like now how I look, it's just not... What I want to look like. - Do you wanna spend more time on yourself on a day to day basis? (light music) - It would help. - Maybe your haircare and your skincare is not really busting into those top three priorities. - I wouldn't even put it in my top 10, I feel. - Not even top 10? - Nah, I don't even think it's in my top 10. - I just wonder if there's anything that we could do in how you approach your self-care on a daily basis that would kin

d of help you just feel, okay, I got both my feet on the ground, I know what my goals are, I know what I'm gonna do, but let me just take this little five minutes and just kind of slow it down. - Okay. - It's that time. - Okay. All right. - You know? - Oh, this is for the funeral. (gentle music) It would be difficult to find a person more generous or giving. - She will remain in the hearts of many, and will forever be loved by her friends and family always. That's lovely. - She was basically his

mother. - Yeah. - Let's put this back. That's where it belongs. - So when Rose comes, where do you guys eat? - In my room. - You think that makes her feel at home? - She has brought it up before that she sits pretty confined. - I've lived in spaces like this, where I've had roommates and you do end up just like living in your room. - Right. - And that can be a bit confining. (disappointed western music) - It's just a space for me, you know? I really don't have much, you know, effort, energy, in

to this space. This is just a step toward the future. - But, even though you know this isn't your forever home. - Right. - For your current sanity, it needs to be. - So there's one thing that I noticed, I saw that it was a program. Was that the same grandma that passed away? - Yep, the same one. - That beautiful description of her, she used to cook? - My grandpa was usually working, so it would be my Nana cooking. - What were some favorite things? - Mashed potatoes, but it had broccoli cut up in

it. - Okay. Oh, that's how she snuck in the vegetables. - (laughs) Yeah, yeah. - Got it. - Yeah, and a little teaspoon of butter, perfect. - Yeah. What else? - Her sweet potato pies were to die for. - Okay. What about it did you love so much? - It would be, most often, a surprise. You know, me and my brother would come home from school and boom, hot, sweet potato pie ready. - Yeah. Your face lights up when you talk about it. - Yeah, so I loved the sweet potato pie. Even to this day, I'm still t

rying to find a sweet potato pie that would taste remotely- - It's never gonna taste like your dear grandma's sweet potato pie. - Yes. I should just give up. - You can go to the depths of the Earth, and you will never find it. - Yep. She took the recipe with her, you know, rest in peace. - And does the whole family know about this pie? - The whole family, everybody. - Someone's gotta have the recipe. - What is your look? 'Cause all I see now is your uniform and then this. You got a lot of sweats

, like a lot of sweatshirts, and then, you've got some more granddaddy stuff. - Okay. - So three adjectives. Cool, funky, whatever. - How 'bout if I give it a sentence? - Go. - Okay, comfort is fashion. - Just because something's comfortable doesn't make it stylish. I know how my clothes make me feel. I know what I want from my clothes. Tell me what you want. - Well, I really just wanna have people do a double, triple, quadruple look when I walk into a room, and say, oh, who's this? I guess with

my current style, it's not really... Feasible to have that. - Yeah. - But that's my, that's what I would really like, you know? - Okay. You could have that. - Okay. - Even on your budget, you can get not even good, great style, on any budget. - Okay. - So I'm actually excited to talk to you, because I saw inside of your room this little mini-budget, and it had loan on it. - Oh, yeah. - Do you have a lot of little mini-budgets like that everywhere? - Everywhere. I have it on my phone, I have it

on my laptop. I have it on a notepad. - So it's all student loans? (melancholy music) - If I didn't have debt, I could already be a homeowner. I could've already started a family. It's constantly on my mind. - How often do you think about your present and what's actually happening right now? - Probably, this is the first time today. - Today? - Yeah, probably the first time. - Wow. And how do you think it's affecting your relationship? - Now I feel it's not... It's not going so good. I basically

left the part of me that she enjoyed in New York where I'm carefree and happy all the time, and now she's seeing Philadelphia me, where it's work, work, work, work, work just to get where I need to go. - When you have a lot of anxiety about your future, it's because you're unsure about where you are today. Listen, this is gonna be a fun week, but it's also gonna be challenging and open you up. - Okay. - You have so many reasons to celebrate and be proud of yourself. I think we just wanna help yo

u get a few of the eggs that are in your super-focused basket, and put them like, one in the fun basket, a couple in your relational basket. - Okay. - You know, just- - Okay. - Just- - Spread it all out. - Yes, just spread around the eggs a little tiny bit. You know? - Do you trust us? - I trust Jonathan the most. (group laughs) (upbeat music) ♪ Don't it feel so good ♪ ♪ Don't it feel so good ♪ ♪ To be alive ♪ - Holmes is experiencing a lot of anxiety around his finances, which is stopping him f

rom being in the present and having fun. So we gotta help him to get over that hurdle. ♪ Stand up for love ♪ - He is a 26 year old young man who is working really hard to find that stability that everyone wants. So I wanna show him that self-care really can be a little bit of a home base, so that he can keep up with these new changes that his life is bringing him. ♪ We gotta learn the truth ♪ - His diet is incredibly regimented. It's like Groundhog Day, but sometimes, you just have to lean into

doing something that's not in your itinerary, and that's what I wanna do with Holmes. - Holmes' apartment feels very temporary, and it is. I want him to think of his home as less a stepping stone and more of a cornerstone that's being used to build his future. - He's accomplished, he's well-traveled, however, that does not read in his wardrobe. Everything is just very functional. I wanna offer Holmes a wardrobe that he feels inspired by. ♪ Don't it feel so good ♪ ♪ One, three, four, two ♪ ♪ Tell

me you're having fun ♪ ♪ Run away from everyone ♪ ♪ Not in this time ♪ - [Bobby] So we are at the Material Culture. - [Holmes] We are. - So I wanted to bring you somewhere that combined what I love, home stuff, with what you love, travel stuff. (upbeat music) There's a lot of stuff here from Southeast Asia, from the Middle East, and I wanted to just show you that putting things in your home that remind you of places you've traveled. - Right. - Can make it feel at home. - Okay. - Well, when Rose

comes, I wanna put things that make her feel at home, as well. One thing we need, since you don't have a closet, is an armoire. It adds detail to the room, it adds interest to the room, but you can also get one that's deep enough for hangers, and see, there's a dowel in here, so that way, you can hang your clothes. Probably put baskets down in there. - Ah, okay. - You have like, one basket of sheets, one basket that could be like, underwear, socks. - And you could even put a small little mirror

here. - Yep. - You know? - Because I'm sure you also don't leave a lot of your, I don't even know if you have self-care products in the bathroom behind. Probably don't love keeping them in there, 'cause maybe they get used by your roommates. - Okay. - [Bobby] Some places in Thailand, they do a lot of white walls, but then dark woods. - Yes. - A nice contrast. So although I think that one's beautiful, something like this, to me, screams, this came straight out of a big old fancy hotel in Thailan

d. - Yep. - I know that Holmes is super focused on the future in his career, and that's great. - [Holmes] It could serve as a seat and a table. - Exactly. But setting up the space that you need to be recharging in is important. Rugs for days. - For days. - [Bobby] For days, rugs for days. What are some of your favorite colors? - So like a tan or a beige. It's the most practical for cleaning purposes. - No! No, Holmes! All right, I do like the fact that you're being practical, but if you tried so

mething with a pattern, it hides stuff. - Okay, right. - So if it has a little bit of dirt on it here and there, or if it gets a stain on it, you don't even really notice it 'cause it's got a- - It's so much to look at. - Pattern on it, yeah. - Oh, this is pretty cool. - You like that one? - I like the red. - I find that red is not a really relaxing color. Even though it's beautiful, colors really do affect your mood and for, especially a space that you're sleeping in, I always try to use darker

colors, more like blues and serene colors. - Got you, got you. - Yeah. - See, if I was by myself, this is the color I would've gotten. - This, if you get a dark stain on it, you're screwed. - Mm-hmm. Yeah, dark is better. Oh, this is nice. - This one's really pretty. I like this a lot. - How did we skip this one? - I don't know. - We fold that one. - All right. Save those. I'm gonna finish shopping, and get your place fixed. - [Holmes] That sounds like a plan to me. (upbeat music) - [Tan] When

was the last time you came shopping? - [Holmes] Probably before I moved here. - Ooh. - Yeah. - All right, well, it's definitely time for a freshening up. Okay, Uniqlo. They have everything that you could need. - I'm a little overwhelmed right now. - Tell me why. - [Holmes] It's a lot of things that I see in the store alone. - [Tan] Things that you see that you love? - Yeah, there are some things that I could rock with. (upbeat music) - [Tan] Tell me about the fit of what you've got on right now.

Do you think it's working? - I'm very comfortable. (Tan laughs) Yes. - Yes, comfort. The out of work wear right now is looking so lackluster. These couldn't be more long, but I just did that, it just makes you look more put together. - Yeah. - But I know there's so much more in there. He's just not presenting that to the world. You said you wanna walk into a room, and not just have somebody do like a double take, triple take, quadruple take. Why is that important? - It's, I feel like it's a goo

d confidence boost, you know? Everybody likes to feel confident and feel wanted, and I just haven't had that in awhile, you know? Yes, there's Rose. She gives me all the google eyes that I need, but it would be nice to walk into work or a bar or somewhere and say, oh, is that a celebrity? Oh, is that? - (laughs) Yeah. - And you know, my clothes that I have now, they really... I really don't feel happy about. - It's just fine, and there's things that I could do with what you're wearing right now

that could make it look more let's look at him, but again, unless you feel it, feel it, nobody's looking. I wanna focus on stuff that you could potentially wear when you and Rose are going out on a date. When it comes to button-up shirts, there are polka dots available, there are stripes available. Use this as sort of a way to add in a little bit of you. - A little personality. - A little personality. - Okay. - And then a trouser or a chino, something like this, it's a little bit thinner. - Yeah

, these look cool and they feel nice. - So functional but also stylist. - Got you. - [Tan] All right, kiddo, ready for this? - I'm ready. - Let's see it. (upbeat music) Oh my, oh my, okay. So tell me what you think. - Right off the rip, I love it. This is absolutely amazing. - Get out! - I absolutely love it. - That makes me so happy. - I never thought that you could match, you know, checkerboard with you know, corduroy with plain, but seeing it all put together- - It works. - I love it. - He ha

sn't seen himself look like this ever. Great! Shall we try the next look? - Yeah. - Come with me. - [Holmes] Okay. - Okay, Holmes, let's see this. - Okay. Let's see what I look like. (dramatic music) Oh, wow! (bright music) Whoa! It looks nice. - It looks real nice. - Man. - Do you see a difference at all from when we first walked into your closet? - 1000% difference. - Tell me what it is. - Looking at myself now, I feel more whole, like more myself. - Yeah. - You know, I feel more natural and t

his is what I should be wearing. - Yeah. - This is style. - Yes, this is style. I wanna see what your version of turning my head is. - Okay. (upbeat music) - He looks fresh, he looks young, he looks date-ready. It is the complete package. Oh, there he is! It was there all along. - We found him. Go get change, Holmes. - Hey, thanks, bud. (upbeat music) ♪ You and me together ♪ ♪ Is all I wanna know, yeah ♪ - [Antoni] We've come to the right place. You know exactly what we're here to do. - [Holmes]

I see it. - After you. - Thank you. - Cue the sweet potato pie. (upbeat music) We couldn't figure out what the recipe was. - Right. - But Aunt Keisha was able to provide the ingredients- (Holmes laughs) so I have a little guide. Why is that so funny? - 'Cause I can just picture Keisha, you know, on the phone, with you saying, ah, you need this, you need this, you need this. - And the things that we don't need, 'cause she was very specific about that. - Oh, okay! - Which makes this kind of inter

esting. Holmes has a rich history of food memories, and I think he's just not tapping into that right now, because he's too distracted by focusing on the future. We have boiled sweet potatoes. - Right. - Salted butter, sugar, real vanilla extract, in all caps, no milk or eggs. - See, I did not know that. - Everything is hand-whipped. - Right. - There's no machinery being used. Buttermilk, for the crust, and then, some fresh nutmeg, cinnamon, corn starch. So we have all the ingredients. I have a

very simple pie crust here, that's nice and cool. (upbeat music) And then, we're gonna take a little bit of flour, so that it doesn't stick. - Right. - Most sweet potato pie recipes, you wanna bake the crust before you put the filling in, but we are here to honor Nana. - She would just take it right out of the hot bowl. - And she would put it right into the oven. - [Holmes] Right into the pan, yep. - And that's how we're gonna do it. Baking a pie is the direct opposite of the functionality of me

al prep. A cup of sugar, because it is a pie, after all. (Holmes laughs) There's joy in it. That's something Holmes needs more of in his life. (upbeat music) - How much cinnamon? - You know better than I do. - I... Let's go two and a half. - Two and a half? Okay. And then nutmeg. I love fresh nutmeg, and then, we're gonna just start mashing this up. See, when you make this in your apartment, I'll be a nice change from the smell of meal prep to having- - Holiday pie, nutmeg, cinnamon. (gentle mus

ic) - Does it smell like Grandma's house yet? - Yeah, yeah. (gentle music) I'm feeling all kind of nostalgia and- - Yeah! - Yeah. (gentle music) - We have those memories. We have to keep them living on. - Yeah. (heartfelt music) - I think it's a wonderful way to honor the people that taught us these things. - Taught us, yeah. Yeah. - So you have your heavy cream. - Right. - You can just put in a little bit at a time, and then, we're gonna gently whisk that in. (whisk tapping) And then, we put it

into the raw crust. - Yeah. - 'Cause that's how she made it. - [Holmes] This is it. (upbeat music) - Beautiful. Perfect. All right. (door banging) I envision you having like a cute little night with Rose. You can make this pie, you know? - Yeah. - Yeah. Nice. - Yes! - [Antoni] This is our homage to your dear Nana. - [Holmes] Okay, let's see. - [Antoni] (laughs) That's the biggest slice I've ever seen. - [Holmes] A quarter of the pie is one slice. - [Antoni] Wait! - Yes. (whipped cream squirting

) Let's see. (upbeat music) Mm. - The answer's in the pie. - Just how I remember it. (upbeat music) Mm. - That's really good. - Top notch. ♪ Sweet sugar, honey bunny ♪ (upbeat music) - [Bobby] So to get that Polynesian Thai feel- - Okay. - I wanna do a really pretty wood ceiling, and then, we're gonna do Southeast Asian rug. - [Tyka] Love that. (upbeat music) ♪ Where did the fun go ♪ ♪ Where did the fun go ♪ - Hey! - Hey. - What's up? Get into the Lyft with me. - I'm coming, I'm coming. I've nev

er been catcalled at before. - You haven't? - No. First time. (both laughing) (upbeat music) - [Karamo] Normally, what do you do? Do you just drive from home to work? - From work to the gym before I go home, because I know once I go home, it's a wrap. - So it's three destinations you go to daily. - That's it. - How often do you ever go outside of those three destinations? - Pretty rare. - Rare? - Yeah, pretty rare. (upbeat music) - I'm all about the present, and as someone, as we discovered, who

's living in the future because of debt and everything else, you should be all about the present this week, as well. - I'm afraid of the present, you know? It's uncertain, you know? - Yeah. - There's no security. It's frightening. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Holmes is having a lot of anxiety about his future, but he has to get out of that mindset, because Holmes might not be living the life that he's gonna live one day, but he's also not unsuccessful in the life he has right now. - Growing up, you know, I

was always secure. I was always safe. Now I'm really on my own. (gentle hip-hop music) - [Karamo] The security blanket for you was your grandmother, right? - Correct. Not having her around now is, it's kind of throwing me into a whirlwind, you know? I just, I'm trying to gather myself. - But from the outside, I see nothing but someone who is very secure. If your grandmother was here, she would be very proud (Holmes laughs) of the man you are. (Holmes sniffles) She would. (Holmes crying) - The F

riday before she passed, I couldn't make it in time to the hospital, but I called her to make sure I told her something, and she said, "William, I'm gonna go, "but I'm very proud of you, and I love you." (sobs) (gentle music) - Listen, the stuff that your grandma did for you, and what she gave you in the security, that blanket is still wrapped around you, and you're living it, and you have the courage, the bravery, the attitude, the perspective that's only gonna continue to grow and carry you in

to greatness. (hopeful music) - So maybe I did take her advice more seriously than I thought I did. You know, like look out after yourself. - You 100% did. - Now I can realize I'm doing what I need to do. She put me on the right path, and now I gotta walk it, and make it my own. - While you're on that path, stop worrying about tomorrow so much, because you need to remember that you're great today. So there's no point of you isolating and not going out and not seeing the city because life is good

, and it's gonna continue to get better. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - There's so many things to do that you don't have to spend a whole bunch of money. - Yeah. - Going to bars gets expensive real quick, buying drinks. - One beer is $6! - Thank you. And guess what? - What? - The place we go, you can bring your own. - Perfect. Yes. (bright jazzy music) Hey, thank you so much, man. Have a good one. - This is a moment for Holmes to practice getting more comfortable, being spontaneous for himself and for Ro

se. - Oh, wow, they have everything here. - Everything. (upbeat music) - One for you. - Thank you. Boom! And there you go. We gonna play? - Yeah! (upbeat music) (bell ringing) (punching bag banging) - Whoo! - Don't mess with me, man. - Clearly. (laughs) Wind 'em up, wind 'em up. No, I didn't even get... I suck! (upbeat music) Ah! Ah! You're not easy on this one. You're not easy. (both groaning) (buzzer ringing) - 29. - I suck! This is gonna be fun. - Ah! Ah! (puck clinking) (puck rattling) - I'm

letting you win. I'm finally seeing the playful side of Holmes. He's not stressing about his finances or his future. He's just having a good time and letting all that anxiety go. Did you have a good time? - Had an amazing time. - Good! (upbeat music) ♪ Life's just way too short ♪ ♪ For us not to have as much fun ♪ - All right- ♪ As we want ♪ - This salon is super (beeps) cool. Excuse my French. Come on in. - Hey. - Hi, Sci-Fi. - [Holmes] How you doing? - This is Holmes, Holmes, Sci-Fi. - Hey. -

Welcome to Another Planet Barber Shop. - [Holmes] Thank you, thank you. - Okay, so here's the thing. First, I wanna take your lips to a little mini-spa. - Okay. - So we're just gonna step back here. - All right. (Jonathan cooing) - And we'll be right back. So what I wanna start by doing is I'm just gonna give yourself a little baby lip scrub. - [Holmes] Okay. - I literally made it myself. This is basically vitamin E oil, coconut oil, agave nectar, honey, and a little bit of lanolin. Baby Holmes

' lips are just really lacking a little baby bit of moisture. They need a little bit of attention and love and care. The total of these ingredients cost like $7. I want his lips to be a moisturized jungle, but right now, they're the Sahara. And we're just gonna stand up and put our lips on there. - [Holmes] Do I pucker my lips? Or relax- - You just relax 'em, but it's also good for your whole face, a little steam in our lives. (light jazzy music) Yes! Yes! You are giving me model, you are giving

me self-care. Yes. Put that on your lips, and start to make little, small circular motions. - Okay. - Yes, yes, thriving. And don't forget that top lip. It's getting jealous. - Yep. I've never done this before. - [Jonathan] Are you liking it? - Yeah. - You told me that self-care wasn't in your top 10 of priorities. - It's not, but I'm gonna have to change some things about my life to better myself. - Yeah. Whether that's in skincare, whether that is in clothing, whatever your budget is, we do h

ave choices, right? - Yeah. - Okay, let's wipe it off. - All right. - [Jonathan] Now Shea butter based lip mask. - [Holmes] Okay. - Grab that out. - All right. - Yes. - See if I can- - Yes. Steam it. Yes. - Mm. - Lip spa. Just an express little lip mask in our life. Okay. - That I can feel. - Yes. - Just like a shield. - Right? Look at how good your lips look. That isn't dramatic, let's go. Let's go see Sci-Fi. Without further ado, come on over. - Hey, how you doing, man? - Hey. - [Jonathan] Tak

e a seat. Love it, good job. Really proud. If you need me to assist you in any way, queen, I am here. - Ah, just be cute. - Okay. Nailing it. So he's looking for his signature look, but I don't think that needs to look corporate and lame. And I also really think we should celebrate your natural texture because it's beautiful. - So we'll be doing what we call here in Philadelphia a blowout fade. - Yes. - You got it. Keep the mustache? - Nah. - Okay! You ready to rock, or you wanna- - I'm ready to

rock. - All right. We're ready to rock. - So ready to rock. (upbeat music) That's a nice hardcore pickout, yes. Yes! - [Sci-Fi] About to hook him up. (upbeat music) - You are an artist, all caps lock. (Sci-Fi laughs) Whoo! Honey. Wow, that detail. - [Sci-Fi] And typically, this is a $70 haircut in my shop. - Really? I feel like $70 for a gorgeous haircut is money well-spent. Let's say that you see Sci-Fi every four weeks, right? You're really paying what $18 a week to come into work, knowing th

at you look and feel confident. - That would make a lot of sense, yeah. - Yeah. Yeah, yeah. (upbeat music) (clippers buzzing) I think when we convince ourselves that we can't afford the time to nurture ourselves, it can really take the light out of our eyes, and it is so good to see Holmes with that twinkle, knowing that he's actually capable and able to sit down and give himself a little bit of gratitude for all the hard work he's accomplished. Thank you so much. Show him the new him. - What do

I look like? Let's see. - Let's do it. - What? What? That me? - That's you, babe. - Oh my God. - Look at how you are lined up right now. - Sci-Fi, this is... Probably the best haircut I've ever gotten in my entire life. - Oh, wow. - Ah, this attention to detail in the back right now is just next-level, unparalleled. - I love it. This is definitely my signature haircut now. I'm in love with it. - Do you feel fly? Do you feel attractive? - I feel- - Like who is he? - I'm a sexy man now. (Sci-Fi l

aughs) (upbeat music) - That's really important. Aw. He looks so good. - Come, give me some love. - Give me some love, too. - Aw. (claps) (upbeat music) ♪ I still feel the fire ♪ ♪ Burning, burning ♪ - [Karamo] Are you excited to see your new place? - I'm actually kind of nervous. ♪ You gotta stand up ♪ - Oh my God. - Oh my God. ♪ Don't ever let go ♪ - Are you ready? - I am. - [Karamo] All right. Keep going. (upbeat music) - Okay. - One, two. Ta-da! (upbeat music) - [Holmes] Oh my God. This is n

ot even the same place. And now I can sit and have breakfast. What? It's a 747. - Yeah, it is. We knew that. - [Bobby] More plants. I noticed you liked plants. - Yes. (upbeat music) The shelves. - You have shelves. - And look at the painting of your grandma. I took that photo and I turned it into a painting from a local artist. (Holmes sobbing) Aww, hey, buddy. - Thank you so much. - Aww. - Oh my God, this is so beautiful. Oh, I didn't even see that! You know what this means, right? - Yes. - Yes

. - Ready and- (camera flashing) - [All] Yay! - [Tan] That was cute. - [Holmes] Okay, we're gonna walk, just gonna walk, walk. - [Bobby] Yes. - Ah, what? (upbeat music) - [Bobby] You love to travel. I wanted it to make it feel like a little hotel room in Southeast Asia. - [Holmes] This is, oh my God, this is absolutely amazing. (upbeat music) - Look at the ceiling. (upbeat music) - What? - Very pretty. - How cozy. Ah, come here. - Over here. - Yes. - I got you a map. I want you to see everywhere

you've been, and I also want you to put a pin in Philly, because right now, Philly, it is home. - [Holmes] It's my home. - There's somebody that wants to share this with you. Hey, Google. Call Pops. - [Google] Making a call to Pops. (phone ringing) - Hey! - Pops! - [Holmes] Nice to see you. You look good. - I look good? - Yeah. - Maybe you need my glasses. (group laughs) That's where you live at? - Yeah. I'm in my room. - You got all these girls and boys in your room. (group laughs) - It's a pa

rty here. All right, I'll talk to you later, okay? - All righty. - I love you. - So lovely to meet you. - Bye! - Bye! (button beeping) - So you can call Rose, you can know the weather. It'll tell you how long it's gonna take to get to work. - [Holmes] Uh-huh. Yes. - Oh! - Isn't she gorgeous? - What? - Okay, so tonight, you're gonna see Rose. - Uh-huh. - So I wanna kinda show you what you would do all to prepare yourself for a quick little baby date, okay? - Okay. - So you might not have time to

get to a shower. Take one little cleansing wipe, it's a charcoal cleansing wipe. - Oh. - And just wipe off the day. - Right. - And then, this is quick, easy. I love a facial spray. So if you put on sunscreen in the morning, which we should've, this can kind of remove anything that you put on for your day time. - Like the residue. - Exactly. - Right, okay. - Mist. (bottle spraying) And then, follow it up with a little bit of lip, you know? - Okay. Mm. - So do you feel like maybe self-care could h

ave broken into the top 10. - Yes. The top three now. - Top three? - Top three, top three for sure. - Wow. It's full-on Watergate but with a happy ending. Hugs. - Aw. - How you doing? - I'm good. - So I think it'd be a little too ambitious to have you make a sweet potato pie from scratch right when you guys get back, 'cause it's gonna be late. - Probably. - So- (Holmes laughs) One of them is just for you and Rose, and one we're gonna have to attack this before we leave Philly- - Do I smell pie?

- Yes, you do. - Come get a piece. - It's Nana's. Is that good? - It's so good. - Oh my God. - It's really good. - Okay, then, well, hello, my love. - Okay. (upbeat music) - Now I'm gonna have a piece. - All right, Holmes, let's check out this wardrobe of yours. - Okay. - So you favor comfort like no one I know, so I got you pieces that are casual, comfortable, but also relatively classic. - Okay. - I wanted to get you outerwear that is gonna be refined, sophisticated, so if you were to wear tha

t with a pair of jeans, a pair of sneakers, a great sweater, a great tee, you're gonna look cool, you're gonna look young, you're gonna look hip. However, if you really wanna go cool, young and hip, I got you easier options. - Oh, I love that. (upbeat music) - Isn't that nice? - I love that. - This is reversible. This is two in one. It's a way to freshen up your look without having to make that much of an effort. - Yep, yep. - I got you sports coats that you can pop with a pair of jeans. - Okay.

- That kind of thing for date night, wonderful. - Right. - So let me get you into a look that could be your work look. Hey! You boys ready? - Yeah! - Okay, great. Are you ready? - [Holmes] I'm ready. - (gasps) Our man's ready. - Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. - This is business look. - Wow! - Oh my God. - You look very handsome. - That's a fantastic jacket. I love the collar of the shirt. - I love it. I love a good brown jacket. - With the oxfords. - [Tan] And he loves a kooky sock. Corgi! - Wow! - Th

ose are cute. Look at your turnout. I'm only a little offended you didn't get some for me, too. - Let me take this off. - Ooh, I like that. - Yes! Wow! I do feel like you found a very gorgeous confidence, honey. - You're right. Yeah. - Yeah. - I feel like it's emanating from inside. I feel it, like I'm believing it. - I would tend to look at you two, three, four times. You would command a room. - Yeah, yeah? - Agreed. - All right, shall we try the next look on? - Yeah. Let's go. - After you. (up

beat music) Okay, boys, date night outfit. Come show them how hot you look, please. - Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. - Here we go. - Oh, shoot. - Yes! - Wow, I love that. - [Karamo] You do look gorgeous. - He looks super hot. - You look really sexy. Oh my God. How do you feel? - Stunning. (group laughs) - Is this a head-turning outfit? - Yeah, I think so. - Yeah it is. What do you think Rose is gonna say? - She's gonna have a hard time keeping her hands off of me. - Ooh. - Right? I'm struggling, I'm su

re she's gonna struggle also. - Rose is here, so we need to rush out. - Oh my gosh, yes. - Onwards. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, carry me, Tanny.

Babe, these are for you. - Thank you. (hopeful music) (group laughing) - What is going through your mind, my love? - I'm in shock. - You're shaking. It's okay. - This is the best you've ever looked in the seven years that I've known you. - $1 million isn't enough. I feel like $2 million. - Yeah. - $2 million.

- $2 million plus tax. - No, no tax. Tax free. - No tax? - Tax free. - You look amazing. - That's an understatement. - Yeah. Ah! - Ooh. - Give us a quick model walk, and see how many heads you can turn. (crowd cheers) - Yeah? - I want a full four, I want a full four turns. - All right, here we go. - All right. (upbeat music) (crowd cheers) Yeah! Yes! - How was that? How was that? - That was very good. - Hey, you turned my head four times. - Okay? - Take notes, take notes. - You look so good. - A

nd I'm gonna take all the lessons that you guys gave me and I'm gonna apply it every day. It's coming from within, you know? You have the potential to do whatever you want, and be whoever you want. Just don't fall off the track, you know, and be more confident with yourself. - And you have two strong women to remind you, too, in case you do fall off that path again. So yes. - Partnership together. (group laughs) - From the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you

. - It's time for you two to connect. - You got the car all night, queen. - Got the car. Time to go on your date. - Let's go. Come on, babe. (crowd cheers) - Goodbye! (smooth jazzy music) - Tonight's just for us. (bright jazzy music) We are at Parc, which is right across the park. - If you are so focused on achieving perfection, you don't get to enjoy life right now. - Bottle of Veuve Clicquot 40. - Thank you. - Top notch, my man. - Take a moment, take stock of everything you've already achieved

, and celebrate that. - How do you feel? - I feel whole now. Before, I was just living here, you know, just living, you know, I wasn't really living. I was existing but not living. And the Fab 5, they helped me realize that it's important to live just as much as you exist. - That's so good. This is step one. - Step one, day one. - To the future. - I like that. To the future, babe. - It's not just about future goals. It's not just about future destinations. It's about where you're at right now. -

Can you feel the music? - Yeah, it's a cello. - Making sure that every moment counts. (light cello music) - This is our moment. - Yeah, I feel it, right? Do you feel it? - Holmes has finally realized that he's always been on the same path that his grandmother set him on, and that path is bright. - I have a surprise for you. (gentle romantic music) Watch the door. Come on. And open. (bright music) - What the (beeps)? Oh my God! - Wait till you see the room. (gentle music) (Rose screams) This is

so... Yes. - This is the part that I'm the most excited for. (gentle music) Dessert is homemade sweet potato pie. - [Rose] Yay! It looks so pretty. - Try it. It tastes like home, huh? With this newfound confidence, I feel at home here in Philadelphia. Mm, this is so good. Oh my God. And I wanna share my home with Rose, and I can do that now. (gentle music) Mm. I love you. - [Rose] I love you. (electronic beeping) (plane engine whirring) (upbeat music) - [Announcer] All passengers should be onboa
