Description
Iris turns to the Inner Monster app to try to better understand Manny Taur.
Summary
Cleo consoles a crying Iris, who is upset because she is having troubles with Manny. She wants Manny to open up to her more, but when she asks him what he's really feeling, he is unable to talk and just stares dumbly. Cleo suggests that if they can't have a real conversation together, she should consider breaking up with him, but Iris doesn't want to give up on him just yet.
Later at lunchtime, Iris is finally having the meaningful conversation she's always wanted.. unfortunately it's not with Manny, but with her Inner Monster app. When her Inner Monster says it knows exactly how she feels, Iris realizes she could use the app to figure out what Manny is really feeling.
Iris approaches Manny at the Casketball court, and swaps out her Inner Monster avatar with Manny's. Manny greets her with a casual "sup" and the Inner Monster translates it as him really saying "Every moment away from your fangtastic beauty has been an agonizing eternity." Iris is delighted, exclaiming that beneath Manny's rugged exterior beats the heart of a poet. Manny is confused by this, but the Inner Monster helpfully informs him it means she likes him.
Cleo sits with Deuce and watches the two embrace, wondering if they'll be alright. She asks if Deuce needs an app to tell her how he really, truly feels about her. Deuce becomes tongue-tied, and Cleo has to open her own Inner Monster to translate Deuce's mumblings into "He likes you too".
