I think we're about to get a glimpse of Zak's sadistic side. Didn't Iris spy him with an age-appropriate Asian woman on the peer? I have a feeling that this evening is payback and will end with Zak telling Iris, "Oh, I thought you knew? Yes, I married just after you and I broke up. I'm so sorry about the misunderstanding. I really thought you just wanted to catch up (and possibly invest in my company)."
While i liked yesterday's comment about Zakik being a play on Zaks name (as I sadly also missed that), a simple Google search shows that zakik means 'she knows' in Basuqe, the language in a region that straddles Spain, a country where the language is Spanish, a language that is the priary language in Columbia, a country where there's a city with Bogota (and coastal regions apparently), a city where Fabiana resides.
If I'm not mistaken, La Rosa is the restaurant where Wilbur told Iris he had decided to leave the country for a year, a trip that would eventually lead him to Fabiana and the Beach of Bogota. Meanwhile, Iris is now on her second go-round with Zak.
Aha, "she knows"...that Zak is lying about "his" game, as evidenced by his clothing: there *are* game devs that wear suits, but they're "team members" in corporate-style companies, not brilliant start-up founders.
This is actually my favorite MW story line in recent history. It's characteristically unbelievable, yes. But it's also unpredictable. Where is Moy going with it? Will Zak turn out to be an acceptable mate for poor Iris? Will Iris come to her senses and dump him in time to save Wilbur after his inevitable heart break? Will Dawn fall for this dashing, successful businessman? Is Zak making all this up just to temporarily impress Iris? Will Iris finally find meaning in her life and stop being such a sap? Will Zak announce he's out of the closet?
Time will tell!
On the other hand, unless Moy breaks with her pattern, we'll be dragged through a completely lame conclusion to this story.
Boy, Zak sure does talk loud, we can even hear him in front of the restaurant. What an irritating person to dine with. Or maybe we should call him Yak?

Cracklin' Iris, you're a store bought woman....

The plot tie now makes perfect sense. She know.

So, Iris, enough about me. What have you been up to?
Uh, nothing. Absolutely nothing. My life is exactly where it was the last time we saw each other. Oh God, I need more wine.

Instead of "bigger," Zak should be using the adverbial form, which is "more bigly."
Oh, big deal. What about Wilbur’s game, WILEATS? Now, there’s a game you can sink your teeth into.
