What Would You Do? Season 11 Episode 7 Fake Date; Stealing From the Tip Jar
- December 5, 2015
In season 11 episode 7 of What Would You Do?, the show's hidden cameras capture the reactions of unwitting bystanders as actors portray two different scenarios of unethical behavior.
In the first scenario, titled "Fake Date," the show explores the issue of fake dating profiles. The scenario features a man and a woman meeting for a first date at a coffee shop. The woman, played by an actor, reveals to the man that she created a fake profile with pictures of a younger and thinner woman in order to attract more men. The man, played by another actor, expresses his disappointment and discomfort at the deception. As the conversation continues, the woman's true intentions are revealed, leaving the man feeling manipulated and betrayed.
As the scene plays out, the show's hidden cameras capture the reactions of other patrons in the coffee shop. Will they speak up and confront the woman about her unethical behavior, or will they stay silent and let it go? Viewers will see a range of reactions from those who choose to intervene and speak their mind, to those who turn a blind eye and continue with their own business.
The second scenario, titled "Stealing From the Tip Jar," addresses the issue of employee theft. In this scene, the show's actors play employees of a restaurant who engage in the practice of stealing tips from the restaurant's tip jar. The cameras capture the reactions of both customers and fellow employees as they witness the thefts taking place. How will they respond when faced with this unethical behavior? Will they confront the employees or report it to management, or will they ignore the situation and go about their day?
As always, What Would You Do? presents a thought-provoking and insightful look into how ordinary people react to challenging and controversial situations. The show highlights the impact that individuals can have when they choose to speak up and address wrongdoing, as well as the potential consequences of staying silent and ignoring unethical behavior.
