"I'm surprised this is eroticized childhood traumathe first time we're like, finally meeting," Jake says when he greets Shane at the door.
We are too, Jake.
Welcome back to another round of Shane Dawson's docu-series on Jake Paul. It only took four exhausting episodes for the controversial YouTuber to make an appearance!
SEE ALSO: Shane Dawson's Jake Paul docuseries is already a wild rideIn The World of Jake Paul, the fifth installation of an eight part series, Shane and therapist Kati Morton get a chance to hang out at the sprawling Team 10 mansion. More of an influencer commune or a frat house on steroids than a house, Jake Paul's residence includes a decked out gym, a full size boxing ring in the living room, and hidden Lego scenes built into the columns of a staggeringly large foyer.
Other highlights include a collection of luxury cars and a Sistine Chapel-like mural painted on a ceiling, which Jake calls "kind of awkward" because most of its subjects have either left Team 10 or have been kicked out.
"The first group of people, probably, were definitely greedy," Erica Costell, Jake's girlfriend and Team 10's COO, tells Shane.
"Everyone who's left has used us," Jake agrees, and reiterates Nick Crompton's point from the previous episode: Team 10 is still a business. "When these people come into Team 10, I give them everything: Managers, agents, food, money, places to live, cameramen, editors, brand deals ... like, everything. I give it to them, and then, they forget where it came from."
Now that Jake finally has a chance to talk, you almost find yourself pitying him. Instead of a sociopathic YouTuber hellbent on sensationalism and fame, he comes off as a misunderstood 21-year-old kid trying to keep his company afloat. There are moments of bizarre innocence, like when Jake says he built a gorgeous aquarium.
"I love fish," he shrugs, adorably.
Shane also finds himself relating to Jake. When he attempts to unpack the Pauls' childhood, they bond over the fact that growing up with divorced parents, they both were allowed to be kids at their mothers' houses but had to do physical labor at their fathers'.
But Kati Morton, the therapist who tagged along under the guise of being a producer, wasn't so quick to fall for it.
"I feel myself feeling bad for him," Kati says. "It makes me suspicious."
Others on Twitter felt the same way -- as Kati mentioned in the second episode, sociopaths have a knack for getting people to empathize with them.

So should we be wary of Jake? Or is he really just a kid who, in his own words, is "constantly trying to top" himself?
Even Shane starts to see the appeal of Team 10's lifestyle. Throughout the episode, he finds himself suggesting the team add a zipline to the living room, or a slide around their pool. When one roommate, Chad, begins licking spring-release mouse traps for a video, Shane shouts, "Do it on your nipple!"
Maybe, like Logan Paul said in an incensed reaction video, we all have sociopathic tendencies.
