A bet that if Cora can''t find her ''One'' on the app, Bianca will call off her engagement. A challenge Bianca is all too ready to tackle head-on, even if it means a little conniving. Cora''s about to get swept off her feet, whether she likes it or not!Meanwhile, Cora is rolling her eyes so hard they might get stuck. Love is a fairy tale for other people, not her.
