This is where things get funky.

One evening, Miz called Maryse and asked her to pull over somewhere nearby. It was 2AM, and Miz suggested the parking lot of a "porn shop". You're laughing, but it's true. Maryse was as confused as anyone would be, even more so when she learned there was method to Miz's madness.

What a guy. What a first date.
