  • ***CORRECTION!!!*** Xochi is not a Masters student/PhD candidate, therefore it is understandable they got confused while these episodes were recorded (out of order) and some details from last episode were accidentally included in this weeks episode: Turk did not reconnect with his ex girlfriend on FaceBook, he did not specify how or why they got back in touch. So just... use your imagination. xoxo -Xochi
