  • - Not a good time to be second guessing myself.

  • - Oh my God!

  • - Shh, shh.

  • (rock music)

  • - So the only reason that I've never gotten a tattoo

  • is that I've never known what to get myself.

  • - Problem solved.

  • Just take that outta the equation.

  • I pick something for you.

  • Everyone wins.

  • - Unless it's awful.

  • - We're here at Body Electric Tattoo.

  • - We are siblings.

  • - You have something on your teeth.

  • You have lipstick on your teeth.

  • - Fix it.

  • - We have chosen tattoos for each other.

  • We have not told the other person what they are.

  • - And we won't know until it is on our bodies.

  • - Forever and ever.

  • - We've worked very hard

  • to have it be a wonderful, supportive relationship,

  • and it could all just go to hell after this.

  • - How could we lose?

  • It's gonna be great.

  • - I think I trust you.

  • We spent a lot of our childhood in Colorado,

  • so there's like a range of mountains, the Twin Sister Peaks.

  • I drew the mountains.

  • - Do you want me to redraw the trees

  • so they look a little more--

  • - You mean like make it better?

  • (laughing)

  • - Yeah yeah yeah.

  • - Simple geometric design, and combine it with this flower

  • that is from a picture from the front

  • of our old childhood home.

  • - It can be done.

  • - Oh, great!

  • 'Cause I don't have a backup.

  • - My sister, my brother, and I,

  • we all live in different parts of the world.

  • She lives in London.

  • We have this unique family connection

  • we call, for whatever reason, a flavor wavelength.

  • I know it sounds pretty ridiculous.

  • It's like our own family's frequency that only we have.

  • - Sure, right right.

  • - [Mike] So the word and having it

  • just kind of subtly transition into like a heartbeat.

  • - A lot of people kind of believe

  • that the full moon definitely has a real impact

  • on the world around us.

  • He's a pretty big believer in this,

  • and whenever I see a big moon in the sky,

  • I'll immediately text him and he gets really excited.

  • It's like he's sending me good vibes from wherever he is.

  • You know, kind of like a misty, dark background,

  • so you can see that it's a full moon,

  • and then a little bit of like an abstract feel to it.

  • I'm really excited about it.

  • I think it's gonna look sweet.

  • (rock music)

  • - I am about to get my first tattoo.

  • - What am I doing?

  • - All right, you ready to rock?

  • - Okay, let's do it.

  • - Let's do it.

  • (buzzing of tattoo gear)

  • - You know when you pick someone a gift,

  • and you're worried if it's gonna be what they want?

  • - I can't return this.

  • - It feels like a single cat nail digging into you.

  • - This hurts a lot worse than I anticipated.

  • - Ow, it hurts!

  • - We all know who the tougher sister is.

  • - Regardless of what it is,

  • it'll always make me think of you.

  • - That was quick.

  • - [Adriana] It's a cartoon penis, isn't it?

  • - So excited just that it's over.

  • - I have no idea what was just permanently drawn

  • onto my body.

  • - If I don't like it, can I have that scarf

  • I really like of yours?

  • - I really wanna look at my arm.

  • - Whenever you're ready, just take a look at it.

  • - Oh my God!

  • It's so cool!

  • - It's gonna be there for a long time.

  • - A really long time.

  • Thank you so much.

  • - Okay, here we go.

  • Oh my God!

  • No (bleep) way.

  • This is so, Ben, this is so perfect.

  • - Do you like it?

  • - Yes.

  • I know, it's amazing.

  • I'm so happy.

  • - Ooh.

  • - It's a magnolia from our magnolia tree

  • in front of the house.

  • - That's really beautiful.

  • - I thought it was really cool

  • that we chose different places

  • that have to do with our childhood.

  • - Three, two, one.

  • - Oh!

  • My God!

  • Wow!

  • - Yes?

  • - Yes!

  • The moon is my favorite thing in the world.

  • She'll always text me when there's a full moon.

  • It's just like another extension of the flavor wavelength.

  • This is awesome.

  • - Ben, it's perfect.

  • Everything about this is amazing.

  • - This is my style.

  • Look at this.

  • It complements the tattoos I already have.

  • - [Melissa] So, solid first piece of ink on your body?

  • - Yeah, I'm ready to get a full sleeve now.

  • - Oh, Jesus.

  • I'm so happy that you love it.

  • - When I'm really mad at you,

  • I'm just going to carve it out.

  • - I know.

  • - Now, when you're in London,

  • you'll always be able to look down

  • and just remember your brother.

  • - When are we gonna tell Mom?

  • (laughing)

- Not a good time to be second guessing myself.
