Bunion, dancers are a dime a dozen in New York City. 

But not butt bongos.

I don't know how much they are paying for the apartment in Princeton, but they could probably get a place in Queens for less.  Brooklyn and Manhattan are out of the question, and I don't think they'd want to move to the Bronx and Staten Island.  Steven and Olga (another 90 DF couple) moved to Queens from Maryland and they seem happy.

I suspect based on the area Ari isn’t even in Princeton. Apartment complex looks more like West Windsor...

[Bees52]

Sheesh Bini wasted no time doing stupid dance moves on the subway. Smh

“We’re not sure what we’re gonna do for money so I took Bini to one of the most expensive cities in the US.”

She's scouting good corners for Bini's potential panhandling/busking locations. 

[Frozendiva]

Maybe Bini can busk.

[kacesq]

Oh Bini needs to be grateful for the apartment when Ari whined about it? Of course.

[Suzywriter]

I do like how Bini is appreciative of his surroundings, unlike some of these pouting bitches complaining that nothing is good enough. 

[Straycat80]

Good luck trying to afford NYC.

Biniyam: Can we go see Hudson University?

He's going to be a judge on "America's Got Butt Bongo Talent."

Ahh, there is the Ari we all know and, um, know.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Areola is lecturing Bunion about not appreciating her parents? Pot, kettle? Maybe we can send him a B Grateful shirt.

[Adeejay]

Penn Station; 34th Street; Times Square; Central Park. Even though I live here, I am enjoying this tour with Bini and Ari.

Most dangerous college in the states!

[OoogleEyes]

Her parents did not do her any favors. This woman is a damn shame 

[My Girls]

Ari's carrying the family by getting her mom and dad to pay.

I think he'd hustle like crazy in NYC...he'd be bussing tables, playing butt bongos and busking on the way between jobs.

And for my next number, I'll need a volunteer from the audience.  Maam, if you could turn upside and stick your ass in the air. . . . 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Areola, YOU WANTED THIS.

[charmed1]

Oh Areola, be real. You’ve never paid rent nor utilities in other countries either.

[Hotel Snarker]

I’d watch a show just about Bini in New York.

Not only strike through, but spoiler seems to be missing.   However, this morning I couldn't look at any posting, on any thread.   And I couldn't zap my notifications.   Notifications is fixed, so I'm hoping that strike through and spoiler are coming back too.  

John is interesting, beer for breakfast is probably a story line too, but John's totally drunk.  So, is John really Patrick's brother or from Central Casting?    

Good point. They don't really look alike. 

[kacesq]

Oh...Ari is the practical one. Of course she is. How’s that job hunt going Ari?

[Straycat80]

I wonder who braided Ari’s hair? And she had to go ruin Bini’s first time in NYC. Lighten up for one day. 

[Grifter Lives]

Based on the "No Smoking" signs on the railings around their table, Ari took Bini to some bar in a train station or somewhere.  I think that New York Penn Station may have been closed, and that doesn't look like Grand Central.  They may have been in Newark Penn Station.

Did Debris dip his head in a bowl of cotton candy?

I had to laugh when Bini is jumping around the subway car with a camera crew and the New Yorkers at the end of the car were just looking at their phones

Why the heck is she starting an argument over his delight with NYC? Bini, what do you want with her?

Is he wearing a Vivint hat? That’s my alarm company. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.

Did you get a visit from him to your door to sell you the alarm?

Jibri's mom needs to spend some time with Emily.

Areola whines more in 60 seconds than should be humanly possible...  That last little aria about money and Bini not being grateful was just about too much for me.  She is SUCH a noodje.  I cannot with her. At. All.

[Suzywriter]

I biked to work for the first time this season. 4 little miles... I used the non-motorized bike, and I swear, they added hills since last year.

FIFY

[Auntie Anxiety]

If I remember correctly, Bunion has been in the States before. In fact, he stayed too long in the States, right?

Mohamed, you are a guest in Yve's home. You don't own it and can't tell her what to do. A man and a woman cannot be alone? It's her house, sunshine. Get used to it. And Yve, ask what you are 'allowed' to do and if you don't like it, send him home.

And what is Yve going to do? Mohammed is in the house, so is her son. Is she gonna sleep with the plumber on the bathroom floor?

She has out-kvetched Jenny.

Jibri, you and Miona can walk the dogs. Fresh air.

Is going through her laundry like going through her phone?

Don’t like it Gerbil, move out!
