'Zatima' S2E7: Zac Gets Schooled by an OG
We pick up tonight’s episode from when Fatima catches Zac using the side chick she bought him. Fatima is relieved that it’s just a toy, but she also finds the scenario hilarious. Zac, not so much. He reminds her that he’s taking care of himself because she hasn’t been having sex with him but she flips it on him and says that his behavior lately hasn’t been very seductive. After that, she goes back to her phone call with Angie, who convinces her that it’s a good idea for the two of them to have an intimate dinner with Bryce and Zac. The point is for all of them to talk out their issues.
Zac went to see his boy Tony at the barbershop and vents about his problems with Fatima. As expected, Tony tells Zac that he should probably part ways with Fatima. However, Zac later encounters Tyrone, the OG at the barbershop, and he tells him to be careful who he gets advice from. In short, he explained to Zac that he has passed up some really amazing women due to being foolish and doesn’t want that to happen to Zac. Zac still needs a therapist, but he at least seemed to receive Tyrone’s message.
Speaking of receiving messages, Fatima goes to Dr. Reid’s office. That’s the therapist that Paul, the contractor, recommended. Fatima is seeking Dr. Reid’s help for Zac and Dr. Reid lets her know that they should both seek therapy. Fatima doesn’t think she needs it but there’s another problem — Zac already made it clear that he’s not into it. Fatima gets the bright idea to invite Dr. Reid over to dinner with her, Angela, Zac and Bryce. Dr. Reid accepts, in what seems very unconventional for a therapist. He definitely doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into. We’ll see how this goes.
Finally, the episode winds down with Tony and Nate stopping by Zac’s office to check on him. Nate is on a mission to prove to Zac that the hook-up site profile that’s using Fatima’s picture is actually Fatima. There’s a status on the site that says she’s at work, but down to have sex with random people in the parking lot. Nate sends a message and “Fatima” gives him a time and place…because the real Fatima would be dumb enough to hook up with Nate. Anyway, coincidentally, Zac gets a text from Fatima saying she’s going to be an hour late home from work. Zac still thinks that profile on the hook up site is a catfish, but his friends are dead set on proving otherwise, so he tells them they can do what they want, and we end the episode on that note.
