01E09 - ...Someone Like Me as a Member
Because of Chidi's plea on her behalf, Michael has decided to fight to keep Eleanor in the good place. As such, Trevor and his bad entourage are still in the good place for negotiations. Such negotiations are outside of Michael's mentality - he only knowing how to be good and give in to what others want - so he calls in backup in the form of Tahani. Regardless of what Tahani may or may not be able to teach him, it will still have to be Michael who carries out the actions. Meanwhile, the real Eleanor, Chidi, Eleanor, and Trevor go on a double date of sorts, for the real Eleanor to experience what it's going to be like, especially the food, in the good place after being in the bad place, and for Trevor to give Eleanor a taste of what it's going to be like for her with him in the bad place. Especially as the real Eleanor and Chidi are supposed to be soul mates, it also gives Eleanor an opportunity to see what Chidi's time in the good place is really supposed to be, while giving Chidi an opportunity to compare life between the two Eleanors. And Jianyu opens up to the one being in the good place with who he feels a true kinship as the only being that he believes treats him well for being himself.
