For weeks, there has been wild speculation on social media about which character Chris Perfetti is playing DTF St. Louisa dark comedy show on HBO Max.
When episode 6, titled The Denny’s Plan, is dropped, the actor has stepped out of the shadows.
The star, best known for her leading role Abbott Elementaryhas made his debut where fans probably least expected him.
What unfolds in episode 6 is that Clark Forrest (Jason Bateman) goes to Chicago to find someone to date Floyd Smernitch (David Harbour).
“Do you think you can get an erection from my boyfriend for $900?” Clark asks Terry, a random waiter at Denny’s restaurant, leaving the stranger confused and worried.
But while Clark is desperate to find a potential suitor for Floyd, Perfetti’s unknown character stepped forward and said, “I’ll do it.”
But this isn’t the only shocking thing that happened in the episode.
Later, Perfetti’s character adopted the alias “Tiger Tiger” on the DTF dating app that Clark had previously shown to Floyd.
He assumed the pseudo identity and traveled to St. Louis to meet Floyd for a meeting. However, disaster awaited.
When ‘Tiger Tiger’ arrived on the scene, he was shocked by what he saw: Floyd in person was diametrically different from what Clark had shown him in photos.
In response, Perfetti’s on-screen character panicked and left, leaving Clark in an awkwardly cramped spot in the park, where the date was to take place.
Forced by the situation, Bateman’s character made a confession, admitting to Floyd that he had paid someone to boost his self-confidence.
This ending left fans on edge for the finale, which aired on April 12.
How many episodes of DTF St. Louis are there?
There are a total of seven episodes in the darkly comedic series.
“A darkly comedic story about three middle-aged individuals caught in a love triangle that leads to one’s untimely demise,” read the show’s logline.
