Ep 2. The Chauvinist and the Playboy

In season 5, episode 2 of The Millionaire Matchmaker titled "The Chauvinist and the Playboy," Patti Stanger, the founder of the upscale matchmaking service Millionaire's Club, takes on two men with diametrically opposite personalities in search of true love.

The chauvinist in question is a successful businessman named Peter Curti who claims that he wants a woman who is domestic, submissive and obedient. Patti, however, isn't impressed by his outdated views and sets out to teach him a thing or two about modern relationships.

On the other end of the spectrum is Alex, a self-proclaimed playboy who has never been in a committed relationship in his life. Patti believes that he is afraid of getting hurt, and passes on her own life lessons to help him find the love that he so desperately craves.

As always, Patti has her work cut out for her with both clients, but with her years of experience, she is ready to tackle any challenge that comes her way.

She begins by setting up a mixer for both Peter and Alex to meet potential matches. The event is a roaring success, with plenty of eligible bachelorettes vying for the attention of the two men.

Despite her initial reservations, Patti manages to find a woman who meets Peter's exacting standards and introduces him to her on a one-on-one date. The pair seems to hit it off well, and Peter has to confront his own preconceptions about women who are independent and career-oriented.

Alex, on the other hand, seems to get cold feet after the mixer and Patti has to give him a stern talking-to. She reminds him that the man who is afraid of getting hurt is the man who never takes risks, and urges him to open his heart to the matchmakers she has found for him.

Throughout the episode, Patti also has to deal with several unexpected challenges, including one of the women dropping out at the last minute and another one who turns out to not be who she claimed to be. However, she takes all these setbacks in her stride and continues with her mission to find love for her clients.

As the episode draws to a close, both Peter and Alex seem to have made significant progress in their quest for love. Peter discovers that he doesn't necessarily need a woman who obeys his every whim, while Alex learns that it's okay to take a chance on love, even if it means getting hurt.

Overall, viewers of The Millionaire Matchmaker season 5, episode 2, will enjoy watching Patti Stanger navigate the tricky terrain of love and relationships with her trademark wit and wisdom. The show offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of high-end matchmaking, while also providing valuable insights into what it takes to find lasting love in today's fast-paced world.
