One of the most awkward arguments about the bill took place on the opening episode of First Dates USA
NBC NBC
THE AMERICAN VERSION of First Dates launched in the USA earlier this year, but it’s finally come to our side of the Atlantic thanks to E4.
They showed the very first episode of the series on Thursday night.
It has Drew Barrymore narrating, an Italian Maître D and all the awkward moments you’d expect from a quality First Dates.
But one moment in particular has gone viral since E4 shared it on their Facebook page last night.
When the bill came out for this couple
Oh. No.
As is First Dates tradition, they left the most dramatic date until last. Woody and Katheryn seemed to be getting along well – a few shots of tequila helped – until the bill was presented at the end. Now, any seasoned watcher of First Dates should know that the splitting of the bill is often a point of discussion – but the Americans, given it’s the opening episode, had no idea.
That’s when things got awkward.
Before the bill was even opened, Woody checked to see where Katheryn stood on the issue

E4 E4
And she had a *strong* position on the matter
E4 E4
OK.
Woody repeated it back out loud just to be sure he heard it correctly
E4 E4
Oh yes
E4 E4
So then, Woody opened up the bill to see the damage
E4 E4
Katheryn wasn’t happy with that
E4 E4
Immediately upon seeing the total, Woody ran to the jacks

^the face of someone who’s worried about not having enough on the card
Katheryn had some worries about his quick exit
E4 E4
But no, he was just going there to make a phone call
E4 E4
And the waiter came to get the bill… but it hasn’t been paid
E4 E4
Woody described the situation to his friend

Woody came back out and paid the bill. But it only got more awkward from there:
“This was expensive. Just to let you know”
E4 E4
He then showed her the $200 figure before they left
E4 E4
Her response?
THIS IS A CAR CRASH.
Then they went into the decision room
E4 E4
Woody was straight in there:
“I do not want to see you again”
E4 E4
Well, that’s one way to do it.
First Dates gave us an update on them at the end – and Katheryn is seeing someone* now
E4 E4
*who pays for all her meals
Woody and Katheryn will always have their one night together – and everyone watching will never forget their argument about the bill.
Welcome to First Dates, America. Enjoy.
