Girl, Cuff Him: Twitter Is Swooning Over Issa’s Fresh Meat On The ‘Insecure’ Season Three Premiere

“Lyft Bae” has fans in a fever.

The third season of Insecure premiered on Sunday night, and to the fans' pleasure, the first episode of the season did not disappoint.

In fact, as expected, it delivered some hilariously unforgettable moments that the series has built a reputation of delivering and during one of those very instances of hilarity, viewers were introduced to a new character that they've already seemed to have fallen in love with: Meet #LyftBae.

*Spoiler Alert*

Early in the season three premiere episode, viewers meet a humbled Issa who is now pursuing a side-hustle as a Lyft driver.

Appropriately dubbing her ride the "party Lyft," complete with complimentary Capri Suns, her car seems to be the place to be on your way to your destination.

During one of her pick-ups, she manages to meet a new rider named Nathan, played by Kendrick Sampson (How To Get Away With Murder, The Vampire Diaries), who managed to defend her honor after the ride turned into the Lyft Line trip from hell.

Things escalated quickly when Nathan got into a fight in the back seat with another rider played by former The Quad star Miles Stroter. While he ditched the ride after the compact brawl, he did manage to leave her a hefty tip before the episode concluded.

His gesture left Twitter swooning and curious to see how their "relationship" may unfold in the coming weeks:
