Evan goes on to the second part, and announces that there's something else he needs to say that "has been really, really kind of weighing on [his] nerves." On his "nerves"? Like it's been annoying him? I thought he was going to say that he hates her hair or something: "I choose you, but seriously, do something about those bangs. They're getting on my nerves." Evan says he doesn't want to hear Zora's answer until she's had time to think about this. Evan says (and I'm going to transcribe, because if you didn't see it, you would not believe how wordy it is, but you have to imagine long pauses between each phrase): "I've been going through this whole event with you and the others, and the hardest thing about doing this with you guys was -- and especially you in particular; you have a problem with not knowing whether to trust me or not. What I'm going to tell you now is, to me, something's that going to be, going to be somewhat of a relief, and it'll let you better know who I am as a person. [loooooooooong pause] I don't have fifty million dollars. I don't have fifty thousand dollars."

Zora looks down and away, and to me she looked more disappointed that he lied than disappointed that he wasn't rich, but how could I really know that? I also thought Evan was going to keep going on that theme, like: "I don't have five thousand dollars. I don't have five hundred dollars. I don't have fifty dollars. I don't have five dollars. I don't have fifty cents. I do have five cents, but that's only because I found a nickel on the floor in the hallway." Evan apologizes for lying, but says he wanted to find someone who loves him for who he has and not for what he may or may not have. Evan says he knows it's been hard for her, but he reiterates that she's the one he chooses and if she wants to accept that, he wants her to come to the ballroom tonight and let him know. Zora is completely silent throughout, which I find really difficult to believe. Wouldn't you have a million questions? Like, was Paul in on this? Did the other girls know? Do they know now? Why would you do this? Why do people think Jerry Lewis is funny? Okay, maybe not that last one. But they are in France, so she might get an answer. I think Zora said stuff, but they edited it out so we wouldn't get a sense of what her answer might be. Evan gets up and walks out. In an interview, Evan says that Zora is an amazing woman, and that they had a lot of ups and downs but managed to get through them together. He makes it sound like they've had fifty years of marriage and he's remembering the time the baby got the croup. Evan says that Zora makes him feel comfortable being himself, and he hopes she can forgive him for lying. Zora sits alone and looks like she does not have a thought in her head, if you ask me. She might be slightly hungry. That's all I got.
