The finale episode part one aired on September 14, was a happy moment for Gabby when Erich met her entire family and friends again as the only man in her life who she could picture herself getting settled down with.

Erich shared how madly he is falling in love with Gabby. He said that she is the only girl who understands him for who he is. He also added that he can picture himself having a blissful life ahead with Gabby and will do everything possible to keep her happy. On the other side, Gabby feels really loved and pampered by Erich. Then she also tells her family that she has finally found a person who can make her feel so comfortable and understands her for who she is. For Gabby, Erich is a person who has accepted her with all her flaws and imperfections.

Erich's words left Gabby's grandpa John impressed and he finally gave his stamp of approval to the guy. Erich is a perfect guy who can keep her happy, he said. The episode left fans of Gabby and Erich overjoyed. Many took to Twitter to express their happiness with grandpa John approving Erich.
