Whitney doesn't waste any time, posing some challenging yet astute questions. What talent would the guys be able to "instantly attain as skill," she asks the men? Most of the replies from the men are fairly polite but one man says he would want to "always find the G-spot every single time." Heather is a little surprised by how quickly things turn steamy. Whitney then inquires about everyone's "secret sexual fantasies." Without hesitation, the guys offer their responses. Even Heather doesn't know who they are yet!

Every man is required to paint his interpretation of Heather. Whitney and Heather must be shown each person's painting one at a time. All the paintings are intriguing in their own unique ways, yet some are unquestionably superior to others. Heather confesses, "I am glad it’s not going to come down to just whose painting I like the best because I am really happy with how they all turned out except Curtis’s." On the painting date, Heather doesn't decide on any of the men, but at least she's going out there! Heather is a single mother of two children, Eli and Ava. Heather previously dated Buddy Bell, who is also Whitney's best friend. Their romance failed, and he is currently engaged to Courtney Marsh.

'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' airs on TLC on Tuesdays at 10 pm
