Ana mourns the loss of her digital soulmate “Alan” after a gender identity bombshell, Ace reveals he’s been propositioned for a platonic jerk session on Bumble BFF, and the two spiral into hilarious chaos, from stinky beds and toddler scandals to the Real Housewives of Miami falling apart at Fashion Week.
