Skyler Maxon guest starred on this week’s new episode of MTV’s Faking It. The episode finds the show’s leading men looking to work out their frustrations with a mixed martial arts class. Shane (played by Michael J. Willett) instantly gets over his reluctance to participate when he spots the hot instructor, Duke (played by Skyler). Shane sets out to win a bet by proving that Duke is gay. After some suggestive sparring, he attempts to expose a tattoo on Duke’s hip that he remembers from photos on a gay dating app. His efforts appear to fail as he finds no such tattoo, until later when Duke privately reveals Shane looked on the wrong side. Sparks fly between the two characters, with the men sharing a kiss.
