Fucking sick

Does the fake dating trope ever get old?

You need someone to help get your parents off your fucking back. Who better for the job than every father's worst nightmare? When your mother tries to set you up with a literal dud, your best friend Steve sets you up with someone much, much better. Eddie accepts the challenge of playing the boyfriend role for a simple dinner.

Too bad no game plan was laid out for catching feelings.
