In an Auckland Chinese diner, cynical Elle regrets swiping right on old-fashioned Winson. His kung-fu hero profile feels like a catfish, and he's annoyed she arrived late. Just as they're ready to leave, a mountain of food arrives—Winson's classic Chinese over-ordering. Guilt and hunger keep Elle at the table. Tensions rise as she mocks traditional dating, and he accuses her of being "not Chinese enough." Their clash turns physical—tea is served, chopsticks fly, kung-fu ignites.
