The episode’s brilliance lies with the fact that the two dates served as parallels of each other. Ali is just starting out his journey while IsTi is already on its second wind — what Ali is only learning now, his friends already went through in Greece. Nico is a far cry from Basti. While Nico was quick to move on to his next prospect, Basti was willing to wait and stick it out until Iris was ready again to give their love a chance because she was the only one for him.
Ali will be fine. A princess would need to kiss a ton of frogs before landing a prince but while he hasn’t found him yet, he has his friends’ love to tide him over.
