JACKIE O (PRESENTS): Previously...

(BELL RINGS)

A speed-dating event

with a difference...

Hello! Mwah!

Hello.

Oh, hi! How you going?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, 13.

Nice to meet you, nine!

(LAUGHTER)

..brought six couples together,

to be married...

I pronounce you husband and wife!

Nice!

(LAUGHS)

..and stranded...

This really gives me the opportunity

to dig deep with someone.

..for 21 days...

in their own tropical island bubble.

This is absolutely paradise.

This could be the start of a happily ever after.

At the first Couples' Cove...

(CHEERS) (GLASSES CLANK)

..Tom's big lie...

Why do you have a relationship on the outside of this?

..sank Emily's heart.

Maybe being on the island made me panic a little bit,

and just kind of blurt this thing out to you,

as a way of, I don't know,

avoiding the intimacy part, maybe?

And a bad joke...

He punched me in the face last night.

Ooh! Whoa!

Do I find that funny? Do I...

I said it...

You're going to listen to me for a second, I'm sorry.

..sent Jess and Sam into a whirlpool of drama.

I can't find him. He hasn't come back.

Sam!

But the arrival of a spicy crate...

(BRIE GASPS) (CHEERFUL MUSIC)

..brought all our couples back together.

Do you want to kiss me?

And romance was in the air.

Now...

Oh, my god!

Oh! Oh!

(GASPS) ..a new crate is on its way.

Movie night!

And our couples are going back to where it all began.

(BELL RINGS) (LAUGHS)

No way! Wait, wait, wait!

But these movies have a surprise ending.

Legs 11!

Stop flirting with my man!

11.

Number 11. 11, 11, 11!

Hello. Hi.

How are you? He's my physical type.

This is news to me!

Then, the second Couples' Cove pops off.

(CHAMPAGNE CORK POPS) Whoo!

Couples' Cove!

And a new rivalry...

Dude, don't touch her. ..begins.

Do you want to talk about movie night?

Yeah, oi Sam.

You are making her feel uncomfortable right now.

Are you OK?

I feel like Jess is actually trying to bait me.

This, for me is a total deal breaker.

# Oh, my, damn this hurts so good

# Always knew it would Stop it if I could. #

On six beaches in the middle of the South Pacific,

six newlyweds have been stranded on Honeymoon Island

for just over a week.

I wonder when room service is gonna change our sheets!

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Never.

They're here to find a long-lasting relationship,

by escaping the chaos of modern dating.

Oh! You got it!

And cutting out the noise and distractions

of the outside world.

(MIKE YAWNS)

Morning.

In the opening days of their relationship,

Amy and Mike had a personality clash.

How'd you sleep?

Yeah, alright.

But today, they've reached a huge milestone

in their relationship.

Yeah, how about you getting up in the middle of the night

and asking for a cuddle?

(CHUCKLES) (LAUGHS)

I didn't think

I'd last a day with Mike,

let alone a whole week.

This morning, we've decided

that we'll start each day with a hug.

Which is nice.

Good morning, husband!

(CHUCKLES)

Yesterday we had a chat about taking small, little steps

and building that romance.

OK! Ready for the day!

It might take me until 2025, but it's better than nothing!

It's progress. (CHUCKLES)

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

For Dani and Emanuel,

yesterday's intimacy crate brought up body issues for Dani.

To me, you're like, super hot.

Ideal person that I wouldn't generally go for,

because I would think that, like he's out of my league.

And it's, like, such a trigger for me.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

Ah.

Ah.

Another day in paradise.

Mm, another day in paradise.

But after being reassured by her husband,

their relationship is moving at a rapid pace.

Comfy? Mm-hmm.

Me and Dani are definitely super into each other.

Um, obviously after the intimacy challenge,

you know, like, we were feeling a bit hot and heavy.

Are we having a little skinny dip?

Our nudie swim

had a little passionate moment in between it, you know?

I really enjoyed it, it brought us a bit closer.

How did you sleep? Good?

Not bad, pretty well. Yeah, I was out.

As soon as our heads... Same.

Last night, she made a comment,

she said I'm feeling horny

and I said, so am I.

And then she said,

"We'd better turn around and go to sleep,"

and I was like, yeah.

And then I was like, well, you know I'm excited downstairs.

And she's like, so am I.

And I was like, hey.

OK, let's go to sleep now. (LAUGHS)

We're practising a lot of

self-control and discipline.

Ah!

It has not been easy at all.

(LAUGHS)

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Good morning.

Good morning.

I have so much sand on me.

Have you not just embraced it by this point?

On Emily and Tom's island,

marrying a complete stranger and being stranded hasn't been easy.

Alright, let's get up.

OK.

It was a tumultuous first week for the couple.

But yesterday's intimacy crate really brought them together.

Coconuts, look for coconuts.

After everything that happened, you know, the last couple of days,

it feels like Emily and I

are in just, like,

a really good spot.

What have we got here?

What have we got here?

(LAUGHS)

Shorts!

(LAUGHS)

Brand new, basically!

Oh, my god!

We're just having a lot of fun, um, and having a lot of laughs,

and yeah, just enjoying being on the island together.

Perfect fit!

(CHUCKLES)

Tom and I, we're so fun together.

And yesterday when he kissed me,

I definitely, you know, felt the warm and fuzzies.

It was a really nice kiss.

There should be a bikini somewhere up here...

If you can find it... ..if you want me to keep looking?

..that would be amazing.

I hope that does sort of unlock the next level of our relationship,

and we can, you know, cuddle a little bit more,

maybe get a few more kisses.

Whatever it might be.

You've got a massive hole in your arse!

(LAUGHS) What?

Oh, we could use this as a strainer!

(LAUGHS)

I'm so glad we went on this walk.

Best day ever.

(LAUGHS)

I'm very hopeful.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

I want you to be comfortable.

So, let's...let's...let's... let's do a rejig on the skirt,

and let's see how tight we can get this.

I'm feeling really good today.

I think yesterday was a huge emotional rollercoaster.

(TENSE MUSIC) Sam!

It's making me nervous, that I can't find him.

And that he hasn't come back.

Sam!

In the end, the intimacy crate really brought us back together.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

The crate drops

are definitely trying to challenge us.

Emotionally, trying to connect us,

and emulate the ups and downs

that you go through in a relationship.

In reality.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Ah.

Oh, my god.

Oh!

Another crate! (LAUGHS)

Across all six islands...

orange crates can arrive at any time.

They contain challenges... Oh!

..and tests from the outside world...

Oh! Oh, my god. Whoo!

Whoo!

..to help push their marriages forward.

I'm hoping it's, like, some sausages and...

I would love some sausages!

(CHUCKLES)

In today's crate, there's an extra special surprise.

Ooh! Oh, hey!

Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh, my god!

(GASPS) There's lollies and stuff!

Ooh! Popcorn! (CHUCKLES)

'Here are some items

to help you prepare your own island movie date,

and look back on where this adventure started'.

Wow! Oh, my god!

(LAUGHTER)

Movie night!

That's what we've been wanting!

Each couple is about to relive the moment they first met

at the speed-dating event weeks ago...

Mm.

Shall we have a look?

..where they had just two minutes to form a connection.

And these videos are a reminder of where it all began.

(BELL RINGS)

Oh, my god, stop it.

(CHUCKLES) Here, wait!

Is it... is it us?

Cheers!

I'm going to come in for a hug.

Oh, yeah, yeah! Cheers and a hug!

Cheers and a hug! Love it.

(LAUGHS)

That seems like a lifetime ago!

Yeah, it does.

I'm in entertainment, so I've like, done performing arts sort of thing.

Yeah. You're a dancer? Um, social-wise...

And you guessed it! That's cute. Yeah.

You look like a dancer. Yeah. Thank you!

That's kind of a compliment! Yeah, it is. Yeah.

'Yeah, it is!'

(LAUGHTER)

Yeah, my top one is 11.

'Cause like, yeah, he was really sweet

and he was funny, and he made me laugh.

And I felt like I would hit on him at a club.

(LAUGHTER)

19.

I think there was just something about her, I don't know,

I couldn't tell you what it was.

There was just a little spark there.

I just want to know more!

I was an emoji girl, that night. Right-oh.

You were the only one who got a heart

and a heart and a heart.

Really? A few hearts. Yeah.

Shall we watch the second one?

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Hi. Hi.

You're a hugger? I'm a hugger!

That's not us!

That's right, Brie.

Each of our now-married castaways met 19 other people that night.

Who's that?

Amy.

And shared their impressions of all of them.

And these videos

will give our couples a different perspective

on the person they've now, been stranded with

for over a week.

You actually look exactly like my type. (LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

Interesting!

Um, number 11, I really liked him.

I'm happy.

Are you, Amy?

You know, I'm not a jealous partner.

But I don't know if Brie is the same.

Jealousy can be quite toxic

in a relationship.

I feel like, Brie, you know,

she wears her emotions on her sleeve.

Emily! Stop flirting with my man!

She's unpredictable.

So, I'll be... I'll be watching closely

to see how she reacts.

Lucky number 11.

That's me. Legs 11!

(LAUGHS)

I'd say my highlight from the speed-dating are number 11.

I think number 11 really stood out to me.

Um, 11! Number 11.

Number 11.

11, 11, 11.

Definitely 11.

Number 11. He was like, super charming.

He was funny. He was cute.

Like, I wanted more. I definitely wanted more.

My wife will kill me.

That boy's ego couldn't get bigger right now.

I picked 19, I didn't pick them!

I'm not worried.

So, I'm not going to be in the doghouse tonight?

No! OK.

I'm not a jealous person, that doesn't make me jealous.

No. I'm not a jealous person either, though.

Yeah. Nope.

I'm glad that we're on the same page on that.

Yep.

Um... 'Cause there are, like, there is...

Really jealous, it's-it's... There are jealous couples.

..it's such a turn off.

I think it's an insecurity, right?

Absolutely.

Brie and I are definitely on the same page with jealousy.

Getting to know her every day,

there is a big sense of maturity I see in her.

We're growing, really, really quickly,

and as much as we-we fear the crate,

I think it's, uh, it's always a step forward.

And it's accelerating this whole process.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Alright! Shall we?

Yeah, let's do it.

Hello! Hi.

Oh, arms... yeah, come here!

(LAUGHS)

I did... I did... You're gorgeous!

Thank you. As are you. Stunning.

Smooth, Sammy!

Are you an extrovert or an introvert?

I'm just going to guess, extrovert?

Oh, yeah. Well, what was the giveaway?

(LAUGHS) What was it?

Ah!

Um, you're a lot of fun.

Yeah, you are too.

Number 13, bubbly, short,

but really attractive, really nice girl.

(CHUCKLES)

Nine is a bit naughty. But there's a lot of chemistry.

(LAUGHS) (GIGGLES)

Hey!

(APPLAUDS)

Standing ovation!

Amazing film.

(BELL RINGS) (TENSE MUSIC)

What?

Oh, hang on.

Hello. How are you? Hi.

Oh, my god.

What is this?

Tell me, what type of music do you like? Everything?

Dance... You're very eclectic.

Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, I have... I was born in Austria, so, raised overseas.

Austria? Yeah. Yeah.

So, I speak fluent German, and I've travelled a lot...

I love German! ..all over the world.

(INDISTINCT VIDEO AUDIO)

(SPEAKS INDISTINCT GERMAN) (LAUGHTER)

Well, I'll hopefully be able

to teach you a little more than just that.

I'd like that. I'd like that very much.

True. You are sexy, and very smart.

I like that.

14.

Big yes. So, yeah, huge (BLEEP) yes.

Hey! What?

He speaks German, and he's my physical type.

Damn!

Spot on physical type.

Oh, my god! This is news to me.

Damn! How interesting.

I-I mean, I don't blame you.

Emanuel's a catch, he's got a (BLEEP) rig, he's hot.

He speaks German.

Sam, listen to me.

I met him for two minutes.

I met you, and I was...

I wanted to do this with you!

I'm so not fussed.

Like it's... it does not phase me.

I'm not... I'm not upset by it. I'm not threatened by it.

Yeah.

Um, like, I seriously do not care.

And I mean that, like, I could not care less.

OK. So, we're not gonna argue?

I don't remember talking... Alright, well I'm just...

..about any of the girls like that though, that's for sure.

I didn't know that you found someone else attractive.

Did you... did you... did you choose not to tell me?

Was it an active, like, were you like, oh,

or were you just like, oh, yeah, he's not going to like, whatever?

It's not a problem.

You just, you...you...you didn't tell me.

And it's cool!

It's, obviously I don't mind at all, like, if you had...

It's more... it's more the tone, it's like a little bit accusatory.

I'm happy... I'm happy

that we were matched together, alright?

Yeah, right. Yeah. Isn't that the bottom line?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Nah, I'm not jealous.

I don't get jealous

in relationships.

Uh, I'm really comfortable

in my own skin.

I don't feel threatened by the video.

All good, all good here. Seriously, all good.

Yeah, I love it.

How are you feeling?

Do you feel like that was a caught,

like, I don't want you to feel like you're called out!

I just find it really interesting.

You don't want to watch that again, do you?

Let's restart this, hey? There's a lot to unpack!

Why do we have to... Round two!

Popcorn ready, let's go.

Hello! Hi.

Oh, arms! Fast-forward!

Hello. How are you? Hi.

Good, thank you. Lovely to meet you.

Let's really take this in.

Sam's reaction to Emanuel...

He's acting quite erratic.

(LAUGHS)

I love this part!

He's my physical type.

Huge (BLEEP) yes.

Oh, I'm loving this! I am loving all of this.

(APPLAUDS)

I can't help

but feel that perhaps Sam is a jealous person.

I love the third part, let's go to the third act.

You are sexy and very smart.

Oh, yeah! Let's go, Emanuel!

Let's go, Emanuel!

I take it as a weird compliment,

that you found someone else attractive.

I'm cool.

OK.

One more from the top?

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Across all six islands...

Alright. Hello!

Oh, hello, there!

How cute,

our little...our little first date.

..our couples have been watching

their very first encounters

at the speed-dating events.

(CHUCKLES)

I'd say number five

was in the top, for sure.

(CHUCKLES)

And he was just beautiful to look at, so...

I wouldn't mind looking at that every day.

(CHUCKLES)

"Wouldn't mind waking up to that every day"!

Look at me go.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC) Alright.

"Dani and Emanuel".

Our movie.

For Dani and Emanuel,

the speed-dating movie is a reminder of where their love story began.

(BELL RINGS)

Hello! Oh, hi. How you going?

Nice to meet you. Lovely to meet you.

I like the confident energy!

Oh, my hands are still sweaty...

Palms are sweat... are they still sweaty?

Then I'll do that. It's better now, it's better now.

The speed-dating event.

It's a blur, I can't remember that.

I couldn't remember Dani at the wedding.

Hello. Hello. How are you?

Good.

Here we are! We're here.

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

She looks pretty, she's really stunning.

But I can't...

I can't remember her from the speed-dating at all.

Does she have a leg tattoo?

But it doesn't matter now, because I'm here, and I'm with Dani,

and I can't picture myself being with anyone else.

So, what do you,

what do you look for in a life partner?

Emotionally intelligent. Mm-hmm.

Nothing else really matters,

unless there's

that emotional intelligence.

Oh, 14's really hot.

(LAUGHS)

Am I now!

Oh! (LAUGHTER)

You've never said this to me!

Do you hold off on sleeping with somebody...

I mean, yeah! ..until you've got that?

It's never... For me, it's not, no. Really?

(GIGGLES)

For me, I think that connection is way more important.

Yeah. 100%. Way more.

I'm going to put 'emotional intelligence'.

"Super hot". "Super cute". "Super hot".

'Funny'. (CHUCKLES) Yeah.

Aw! That's funny.

See, I remembered that, but you didn't?

Yeah.

It was a bit of a blur, but now I... you were the first person I saw!

Was I? Yep.

The first date I had.

And you still don't remember it?

Oh. I do now! (LAUGHS)

Now, I remember in the conversation, but like...

I'm joking, I'm joking.

Yeah, wow.

Well, you didn't remember, apparently what you said!

Hot? Hot!

(LAUGHS) Geez.

Well, it's good to know you found me attractive at least!

Of course!

And I asked you about holding out on sleeping with someone.

Mm-hmm. Checks out.

Yeah. Mm.

In my life I've tried

to really just pull back on that being the agenda.

Mm-hmm.

And really building... especially if you're going to be my wife.

A fling's different.

Mm.

It's difficult to like,

withhold having something happen.

It feels like something

that I might want a little bit sooner

than Emanuel wants.

But we're in this to kind of build that emotional connection,

and actually, you know, focus on a real relationship.

Ah, I guess some things will have to wait.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

For Amy and Mike, it's been a long road from day one.

Ooh! Mike and Amy!

And their speed-dating movie is a chance to remind them

of their initial connection,

and how much they've grown as a couple.

If this works out bad, I'm just going to have a little nap.

This will be me. Yep! Crack on.

OK. Shall we?

Play!

When it says that it's a movie date,

I'm hoping to watch

my favourite movie, 'The Holiday'.

Oh, my gosh, hi.

(LAUGHS) Hey.

What's happening? Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, I'm number three.

You're number three, I'm number two.

But instead, it's my first encounter with Mike.

Not quite as cute. (CHUCKLES)

Do you know what the ironic thing is?

This is actually my real name in real life.

In real life, it's Three. It's Three!

Really? Mine's Ten.

Is it? (LAUGHTER)

What do you do on the weekend for fun?

Race cars. OK.

I also do stand-up comedy.

And...

You do stand-up comedy? Yeah, just for fun.

But I would say, it's not my job. So, do I!

Stop it! Yeah! Yeah, I do stand-up.

What! OK, that's huge, that's good.

We had a really good laugh.

I felt like we had a lot in common.

There was a lot of vibing going on. I really liked him.

Oh, cute.

(LAUGHTER)

How many gigs have you done?

Uh, 12?

Wow! OK, I've done about 12 as well.

Oh, nice.

If you're the funny one, what am I going to do?

No, I'm the main character.

So, you are the funny... Sorry, so you'll have to get out...

..and the pretty one! (LAUGHTER)

It's true. I'm still the main character.

Yes, honey, we have figured that one out early.

(LAUGHS)

She was funny.

Which is like, on one hand it's great.

And then on the other hand

it's like, oh, snap, we could go there,

and it just becomes like drama!

(LAUGHTER)

Oh, that was nice!

I hope I get a copy of this.

You looked really nice that day, too.

You looked... Oh, thank you.

Yeah, that was...that was nice to see speed-dating rounds.

I can definitely see why she was my top pick for sure.

Just full of energy,

and she's got very pretty eyes, she's got a great smile.

And we had so much in common!

She's a cool chick,

and I'm having a hell of a good time with her, so...

But for Amy,

Mike wasn't the only guy with a starring role that night.

(BELL RINGS)

Hello, salmon jacket! How are you?

(LAUGHTER)

Nice to meet you! Yeah, you too!

Is that a man bun?

You're so far up, I can't even see. It is a man bun. (CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHS)

Like, seriously, but yeah...

(LAUGHTER)

Why are you getting all nervous?

You're not... you've got the giggles!

See, you are exactly my type.

Oh, really? OK. Yeah.

You're my-my type, too.

Ooh, that's good to know. I could climb you like a tree!

(LAUGHTER)

Number two was a proper pocket rocket.

And I was all about it, to be honest.

Um, yeah, could be a lot of fun there.

So, I'm picturing my experience with two different men.

Number 18...

and number three.

They're very different...

but I have one person in mind, who I really hope it is.

He was sexy as!

Number 18.

Salmon jacket.

He's the one.

I love the man bun.

I liked his outfit, I liked everything.

And then we shared like, this little wink afterwards.

Please, put me on an island! Lock me up, throw away the key!

As long as it's number 18!

(LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

I have one person in mind,

who I really hope it is.

(LAUGHTER)

Number 18.

Salmon jacket.

He's the one.

Love the man bun.

Please, put me on an island!

Lock me up, throw away the key!

As long as it's with number 18! (LAUGHS)

After watching her speed date with number 18,

otherwise known as "Salmon Jacket",

Amy has revealed he was her preferred match.

Well, that was fun.

Yeah. Nah, it's all good.

Yeah, sorry.

Though, I feel like that's...

Why are you sorry?

I just feel like that's...

I feel really bad.

I mean, it was, you were definitely in a little bubble there.

Yeah. Yeah.

Hearing I wasn't her first choice.

It was a sort of level of, like,

ah man that kind of hurts.

Um, no, I'm-I'm sorry that you had to see that.

Because I-I like...

I don't want you to feel like I didn't like you, or whatever.

Yeah. You know?

No, no, no blame, but like...

Yep. You are a cool chick.

And it's hard... Yep.

..in those sorts of moments, where you've got three minutes

with someone, to figure everything out.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I really appreciated her empathy

towards how I was feeling about the situation.

Intimacy and chemistry,

you know, it doesn't have to be instant.

It takes time to be able to figure out each other out.

I feel that we're at such a good space...

Yeah. ..in our life as friends.

We're in a good place now. Ah-ha.

Um, let's focus on here and now.

Yeah. Which is, you know, us.

Mike and I

were matched for a reason.

And I feel like watching the video,

it did remind me that we have so much in common.

Such as the stand-up comedy.

I mean... Amy's the catfish!

So, I'm hoping that we might be able to build on this common ground.

Like, why don't we try and make little milestones every day?

Like, just learn something new about each other every day, and...

Wait, I have to learn stuff about you?

Yeah, you... yeah!

You might have to actually listen!

Ah! No!

You're like...you're like, nah!

(LAUGHS) Yeah!

I think his ego might be a bit bruised.

But I think it'll be fine.

(CHUCKLES)

('SEXUAL HEALING' BY KYGO AND MARVIN GAYE PLAYS)

OK. Let me fix the net.

# Baby... #

(FIRE CRACKLES)

Let's take a second to embrace...

It's pretty pretty.

..the beauty, that we're lucky enough to have.

# Baby. #

As a new day breaks over the South Pacific...

excitement is in the air.

Looking very beautiful this morning, I must say.

Thank you. Mm.

Mm! Mm.

Ooh! (CHUCKLES)

# Stronger and stronger

# Will I get that feeling. #

Today, our newlyweds are getting ready

for their second Couples' Cove.

Should I just roll in my undies?

Yeah.

(CHUCKLES)

Alright, there's something I want to ask you.

Yeah?

Where are my shorts?

What did you do?

They're in a really safe space.

Emily, I will not forgive you, if...

(GIGGLES)

Where are my shorts?

Tom's not the only one struggling with his island look.

Because for Amy...

Ah!

..her worst nightmare has come true.

(WHIMSICAL MUSIC)

Now, I don't want to scare off anyone.

But...

if I do this...

this is the situation.

I would describe my need for a brush as, like, for death.

I can't roll

into the next Couples' Cove like this.

I mean, never in my wildest dreams

did I think that I would be combing my hair

with a dinner fork.

You're going to have to be on dinner duty.

But here we are.

Is that actually working?

I mean, like, it's not my Tangle Teezer.

Aim's is getting so desperate now,

with her hair that she's resorting to any means necessary!

My hairdresser is going to kill me.

No!

Eugh!

I'm not really too sure what coconut does in the hair,

but I'm-I'm assuming that it...

does it, like, free it up a bit?

Because she's getting some pretty nasty dreads.

Yesterday she said, look, she is going to put some effort in,

and make steps towards us.

You know, just getting to know each other better.

So, I thought I'd actually tak the first step show her I can weave,

and make her something pretty cool.

Mike? Yo!

What are you doing over there?

You've literally been sitting in that spot all morning!

(CHUCKLES)

Yeah, I've got a mad surprise for you.

I love it! Do you like?

I love it! Oh, my god, can I wear it?

No. This is for me.

What? Yeah.

Aw. OK.

Go and look under the bed.

What? We got to be a team, girl!

Oh! Oh, my god, that is so good!

Wait! Oh, this is so cute!

You like it?

Oh, my god, yes! Does it fit?

Like a glove.

Mike has spilt me a beautiful hat!

I am very grateful.

He knows that I'm worried about my sunburn,

and it'll cover the matted mess that my hair is!

I can't believe it. Mike actually listened.

I'm so happy!

(LAUGHS)

It looks so good!

At Couples' Cove,

everyone else is going to be shocked.

And style me, girl!

Whoo-hoo!

And not because of how we look...

Whoo!

..but because Amy and I have come so far.

We're going to Couples' Cove!

Bula! Whoo!

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Amy and Mike aren't the only ones excited about today.

The time has come for Couples' Cove again.

I know. I'm happy.

We love Couples' Cove. Yes.

My plan for today is yeah,

just to go in and have a good day.

Have a day away

from our kingdom, our island.

And just see our friends.

Tom and Emily.

Mm. And then there's Jess and Sam.

I'm struggling with Sam, I feel like he's a bit...

ingenuine.

Mm. You know, he gets, he's very reactive.

You know, especially last Couples' Cove.

But when they were talking to us...

You guys struggling with the sleep?

You're getting way more.

He's-he punched me in the face last night.

Oh! Whoa!

I don't know why you'd say it like that,

it didn't happen like that.

He hit me in the face. I wouldn't...(SCOFFS)

He hit me in the face. I'm going to go grab a Coke.

Don't say that... While he was asleep.

..that's not nice to say.

Wait, what's that?

He hit me in the face last night, accidentally.

Like...

It almost, like, felt like an attack.

It was just a joke, mate.

And um... But he took it the wrong way.

And that makes you feel... He took it the wrong way. Yeah.

..like there's something deeper going on there?

Yeah, definitely.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

I feel Jess is such a kind person.

And she's a smart woman.

I would love to check in on Jess.

I just want to, you know, make sure she's OK.

Despite the sunshine,

it's a frosty morning for Jess and Sam.

(CHUCKLES)

Sam's reaction

to seeing Jess' speed date with Emanuel

has left tension in the air.

It's been sweet today waking up

in this amazing paradise.

And feeling distant from Sam.

Sam's reaction to seeing Emanuel and I speed-dating was really odd.

It does concern me a little bit.

There is a touch of jealousy in there, for sure.

I am personally really excited to get over there.

Maybe Emanuel's single!

Should I be worried if he's broken up with Dani?

I couldn't give a (BLEEP) mate!

(LAUGHS)

All will be revealed.

Going into Couples' Cove today,

it will be a bit weird

because I don't know where-where we're at.

I just want everything to be OK!

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

Honeymoon Island!

Going on Couples' Cove!

DE Island represents!

We've got to be

the first couple there, this time.

Oh, I hope so!

Surely.

Each of our couples

have left their island paradise,

and are on their way

to their second Couples' Cove.

Here, they'll be able to pick up much-needed supplies,

catch up with the other couples over a beach barbecue lunch

and gauge the progress of their own relationships.

And after last Couples' Cove,

where Tom dropped a bombshell at the table...

So, before coming here, I did meet someone.

I was seeing her for maybe a couple of months.

You have a girl on the outside.

..there's one couple everyone wants to see.

I'm very interested to catch up with Em and Tom.

Yep.

She's competing with a girl on the outside.

I'm going to be disappointed if Em has had no progress with Tom.

Yeah.

I would eat you alive, if you were Tom.

Yeah.

And you know, Em really wanted me, anyway!

So...

(BRIE LAUGHS) ..here we are.

Eugh! (BYRON LAUGHS)

Getting a bit seasick, sorry.

We're coming in a lot stronger than last time.

For sure.

I'm keen to find out about how the other couples are going.

There's nothing worse than pretending

that everything's perfect.

Perfect. Right. When it's not.

Exactly.

I know you don't want me to say it, but I'm just going to say it,

Emanuel...

(JESS CHUCKLES) (SPARS) Watch out!

Should I?

For the 100th time...

Do as you wish! No.

Absolutely not. Absolutely not.

No problems here in Fiji, hey?

Exactly. Whoo!

Why be mad when you could be glad?

Why be mad if you could be glad? (LAUGHS)

I think I am putting on a brave face at the moment,

because um, I've sort of gone into crisis management mode.

Couples' Cove really is a pressure cooker,

and after watching that video with Emanuel and I,

I'm starting to think that maybe he is a jealous person.

I don't really like confrontation, so, yeah, I'm-I'm nervous about it.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Come on, Mumsie!

Mumsie? Mumsie.

OK! That's a Kiwi thing.

I thought I was your wife!

I hope we're the first. I think we are!

I can't see anyone else.

It feels really good

to come in today,

with a very positive attitude.

(CHAMPAGNE CORK POPS) Whoo!

Couples' Cove! Yeah!

Cheers.

To a fantast...

To Couples' Cove.

To a fantastic week. Have a great day.

To catching up with everyone today.

I feel like we're in such a better place

compared to last time.

We started out like, argh!

We started out like, no!

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

And now, we're coming closer together, which is nice.

I know.

What's here? Supplies.

I-I spot what I want. Wow.

My hairbrush! Ahh! Wait!

This is my makeup bag! (UPBEAT MUSIC)

Oh, my gosh, you get all of that?

Do you get all of that?

I think I get the whole thing!

(GASPS) OK.

Oh, my god, stunning!

Yeah, man, take it! It's all you.

Done!

Is there anything that you want? Nah!

OK! Oh, my god, I'm going to be looking so hot!

We got my brush!

We got my brush. We got my makeup bag!

We're going to do makeovers, we're going to be looking so fresh.

We got some moisturiser, you're going to thank me later.

I'm going to... When you remember everything.

..be the belle of the ball, when I go out!

It's going to be sick.

You already are. Yeah. Thank you, babe.

If a girls looking good, she's happy.

So, happy wife, happy life. Exactly.

Hot wife, happy husband!

Yeah, handy! (AMY CHUCKLES)

Handy!

I'm stoked.

That's the one for both of us!

Yeah!

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

I see another bride coming.

Bula! Hey!

Hi guys!

Hi guys! Hello!

Hey!

We love Couples' Cove! So good.

Couples' Cove is us.

Our people.

Our people. Our folks!

(LAUGHTER)

Oh, really?

Hi! Nice to see you!

Good to see you as well.

Love the hats!

My husband crafted it for me.

Amy and Mike look like they may have turned a corner.

A big difference from last week. Yeah.

How do you get it to sit so, perfectly on your head?

It's the head, not the hat.

Yeah. (AMY LAUGHS)

It'll be good to check in with her,

and get an update.

I hope that they've managed to find

some sort of common ground.

Where do you want to go? Shall we go over here?

You guys were walking up looking very couple-y.

It's been good!

And how'd you go with the movie?

Did you have the movie date? Yes.

Yes, we did.

OK, 'cause they showed,

um, me with Salmon Jacket.

(LAUGHS) No!

'Cause I was next to you at speed-dating!

Yeah. I remember the exact moment.

Yep. You were stoked on Salmon Jacket.

I was like, giggly and, like...

Oh!

Well, I mean, last time I saw you, it...

you weren't very happy at all.

Yeah.

How, like, have things improved?

Like, I've been thinking about you guys,

I've been praying that you... Ohh, thank you.

..have managed to turn a corner.

Mike and I, you know, we're taking baby steps.

Like, we decided that we'd start each day with a hug.

And that's the closest...

(LAUGHTER) A crazy step!

(LAUGHTER)

..that, I think like, I think we've got there, actually.

Like, we do want to, like...

give it a go.

You know what?

I actually wouldn't swap Mike out from Salmon Jacket.

Mike is so fun.

He constantly makes me laugh.

He's really generous,

he's got a heart of gold.

I honestly think that

inside of that big hard exterior, he's just a big softie.

It's been good, man, like, honestly, I came,

I've been having smiles on my dial for the last four days.

Yeah. That's so good. Yeah.

Ah. We're on, then.

We're on. (GLASSES CLANK)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oi! Hey!

Oh, my god, we have our next couple!

Whoo! Whoo!

Oh, island couture!

Babe, looking amazing!

It's so good, seeing all of the other couples.

Yeah, we took... You absolutely nailed this.

..we took it from high to low.

Whoo, girl! (CROSSTALK) Yes!

(COUPLES CHEER, LAUGHING)

He's done that a few times, hasn't he?

(LAUGHTER)

The energy levels are raised.

We have another couple! Oh!

(COUPLES EXCLAIM, CHEERING)

Yes! Whoa! What's up?

What-what do we call that one?

The Bysor Visor! Yes!

(LAUGHTER)

It doesn't come off! Yeah.

And if I get angry, I throw it and she always comes back!

(COUPLES EXCLAIM, LAUGHING)

I think so far, everyone seems to be in a great place.

Hey Byron!

We miss music, right?

(STRUMS UKULELE)

OK. It could be fun.

You want it? Yeah.

Let's take it. Yay!

Thank you! That's alright.

We can... I'll teach you! I'm excited.

But I'm most looking forward to seeing Tom and Emily.

Oh, I can't wait to check in with Em.

Same.

He's 100% hiding something. (SIGHS)

If he is...

You mean the fac that he's got a girl on the outside?

Well, it's not that he... well, we don't know,

we don't know the extent of it.

I think there's more to this girl on the outside

than he's leading on.

So, Tommo, what's the crack?

Yeah. Give us the juice.

Oh, we have our next couple!

Emily and Tom! Em again!

Welcome! Emily!

Welcome to Couples' Cove!

The pressure cove!

You look loved up!

(GIRLS SQUEAL) Hi, guys!

I missed you girls!

Oh, my god. So good to see you, how are you?

Hi! You guys look good!

I was so worried about you guys, you look happy!

Emily and Tom walk in holding hands, like, we all see it.

Just tell us!

Give me the gossip!

Guys, we need...

Yeah, we need a massive girl talk.

Girl chat. Yeah!

Um. How-how are you in general?

Yeah, how are you? I'm, I'm doing a lot better.

Tom and I are in a really good place.

Really? Oh, that's nice.

That's good. That's so good!

Talk us through everything.

Yeah, we want to hear from start to finish.

So, basically,

what-what the situation is with the girl, is that...

it-it actually was never anything.

And what he did is he was self-sabotaging

because he thought I'm not feeling

the romantic spark with Emily.

Therefore, I'm just going to tell her, so, that, you know,

I'm not going to get hurt at the end of this,

and she's not going to get hurt, and blah, blah, blah.

Was he genuine? That genuine? It was genuine, yeah.

It was really... it was, yeah.

I could tell he was being honest.

It's definitely left a sour taste in my mind,

and that he lied to Emily.

He stood up at a table, and said he had feelings for a girl.

Ah, I'm all about gut feelings,

and I just question why he's here.

I'm baffled.

Why bring up this whole thing in the first place, if...

If it's not... ..if it was nothing?

I think he's scared.

He's really trying to be open and honest.

Yep. Yep.

Get into it. What did you do?

(LAUGHTER)

No, because youse two have made the biggest comebacks of the...

Yeah. ..of the last Couples' Cove.

Yeah.

Now, like, today, the...

yeah, we feel so much more comfortable together.

Are you attracted to her? Yeah.

Yeah, there's features I'm definitely attracted to.

And I feel really comfortable, and I feel like I can kiss her.

OK. Yeah. (GIRLS CHATTER, LAUGH)

So, do you...

how... where do you see this going now?

Like...

We're having the most amount of fun.

We do nothing but laugh. That's good.

It's so lovely, but...

But that's it.

I don't know if he's willing to go there romantically with me.

Um, two times...

Are you wanting to go there with him?

I think I do, yep. OK.

I'd like to, again, like, try as much as I can.

Like, we're only out here for a short amount of time.

I honestly can't believe that you're still willing

and wanting to try, though.

Yeah, yeah. I was going to say.

Shows what an amazing person you are.

Yeah.

As a person, like...

I don't want Em to be fooled by this guy.

He's charming,

and he may have convinced her that he's trying to make this work.

But he's not convincing me.

I think all the girls see through Tom.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm like, fly away.

One, two, three, four, five...

Is it Jess? Of course!

Bula!

We're here to party! (COUPLES CHEER)

Ahh! Our last couple!

Sam might be ready to party,

but his wife Jess is putting on a brave face.

Hi Jess. Good to see you.

Good to see you.

Alright. How are we?

She's worried that her speed-dating movie

with Emanuel has caused a rift in their relationship.

Are you going to have a little alcoholic beveragino?

No, not at the moment. No?

After watching that video with Emanuel and I,

something was off with Sam.

He's been acting quite erratic.

I've been so excited for this.

I know.

I don't really like drama, and...

at times, I feel like I tend to tread on eggshells around Sam,

so, I just...

I-I really don't want to rock the boat,

when are things are going well,

and I've really put a lot into this.

Hey. Good.

(COUPLES CHATTER)

Yeah. Yep.

(CROSSTALK)

Yeah, it's been a bit of a rollercoaster, like...

Yeah.

..after Couples' Cove, we had a bit of a fight.

OK.

Um, but then we turned it around.

Yep.

So, I've been stressing about that,

and then yesterday the crate comes.

And we saw, um, Sam and I meeting.

And then we saw me going...

Yep. ..me with Emanuel.

..and going yes, he's my type, blah, blah, blah.

And I was saying...

Ooh, yeah.

Sam was like, you didn't tell me that!

He's definitely cooking a bit about it, but...

Yeah.

..I've been trying so hard to, like,

keep everything, like, at a happy equilibrium.

Yep.

And to keep everything calm, and have fun.

Yep.

And it's not been easy, 'cause we've been...

you know, busting up a little bit on stuff.

Yeah.

And being in this environment...

Yep.

..I'm worried.

Yeah, well, it's... that's why, you know,

these Couples' Coves are really good.

Yeah.

Because you'll-you'll see the person's personality...

Yeah. ..coming out.

..and how they are around other men and other women.

And-and you know? Yeah.

Yep.

That'll all...

Yeah. Yep. It'll all come out.

I think so.

We're talking about...

Oh!

Yeah, we watched the whole date.

What's funny is-is um,

and I'm sure Jess isn't going to mind me saying this

but at the end of our video...

And I wasn't at all, like,

I'm not uncomfortable.

Like, I seriously do not care.

And I mean that, like, I could not care less.

Yep.

Like it's...it does not phase me.

I'm not sure if I buy the way that Sam is talking.

What I can definitely sense is uh,

uh, a little bit of jealousy there.

I'm not here to take Sam's girl.

Who I'm with is my...

is actually turned out to be the person

that I want to survive this entire thing with!

Cool. Yep.

Like, I mean, Jess is lovely, she's beautiful...

Yeah! ..she's gorgeous, whatever.

But like...

Dude, don't touch her. (BOTH CHUCKLE)

Hands off!

(LAUGHS)

He's throwing snarky comments.

You know, whenever someone says ha-ha, don't talk to my girl!

They really mean, don't talk to my girl.

So, I am wary of Sam.

And if he decides to rile me up at lunch, I will not have it.

That's for sure.

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Ooh, hello!

Hey.

There's your beer, babe.

Fill it full, with the boys.

Yeah, you go, cool.

You with your cool hat.

You think the boys

will like the hat?

Awesome, mate!

Sorry.

(CHUCKLES)

Sorry, bye!

Oh, I'll just be here!

We're with the girls.

Don't mind me!

(LAUGHS)

At the second Couples' Cove,

the brides and grooms have split off.

Yeah. How's your week been going, bro?

To discuss the crates

that have washed up across their islands.

You guys will find this quite funny.

(LAUGHS) Go on.

So, they showed us obviously our first meeting.

Then the other video was, um,

all the other girls saying they'd picked me.

There was like, oh, man, there was like,

eight or nine, or ten, it just kept going.

Like, yeah, so, I pick 11!

And like...

Oh, Casanova! That's awesome, mate!

The people's choice.

(LAUGHS) Oh.

Mine was a compilation of other girls

from the speed-dating thing, like, I like him!

(LAUGHTER) Including you and you!

I'm like, I know!

And they're all like, 'I like 11!'

'Ahh!' And I was like...

Sorry, babe. ..I-I don't care about that!

I care about his head growing.

But she, we both laughed about it, and she was like,

neither-neither of us are the jealous type.

So, there was really, like...

Mmm. Great!

..that was comforting.

But Byron's speed-dating success

isn't the only hot topic for discussion...

I don't know about you guys, did you get like,

an intimacy crate?

Yeah! We all did.

Yeah, I think we all did. Geez, man.

That just... it brought up some stuff, man!

..as the couples' intimacy crate caused quite a stir.

Yeah, it actually, um, rattled us for the first time.

Really? Really?

Yeah. Why?

But you guys were so...

Smashing it! You were so strong.

I thought you guys would still be cuffed on the island!

(SIGHS) We're both on different pages about intimacy.

I usually jump in the sack straightaway.

And, like, I don't know, I'm used to guys wanting that!

Like...

What... OK, what's his reasoning for waiting?

Well, he's like, I've done it before, and like,

I just want to emotionally get to know you and stuff like that.

And I'm like uh, I took it as, I'm not attractive,

and you don't want to be with me, so...

You are... ..I'm leaving.

Are you kidding?

I'm a...I'm a slow burner, man. Yep.

There's no rush.

I think we... I... we...we...we all agree.

I just... I... I've been down that road.

Where you jump in...jump in that, like, that's not me anymore.

Yeah, yeah. That's exactly it.

Yeah. Nice.

So...

But you... you're attracted to her? Yeah, I am!

It's just, that seems like she was like,

"oh, you don't find me attractive." I was like, it's not that at all!

Yeah. It's not that at all. It's not that.

Yeah.

I feel like if-if it gets to halfway and, like, I don't know.

Don't, look, don't put a timestamp on it.

But for me, sexual compatibility... At the end of the day...

Sexual compatibility's a box... Yeah.

..that is yet to be ticked.

I'm rooting for Brie and Byron.

I think...

Yeah, I am too. ..they're really cute together.

He's an awesome dude.

But it's hard to imagine

why he's trying to take things slowly,

like she's hot!

Just bang her! (LAUGHS)

(HISSES, UNSURE)

I, honestly, I don't know what it is!

(CHEERFUL MUSIC)

Jess...!

Come over, lunch is ready!

Come on, girlies. Follow me.

Hi Amy!

Hi guys! How are you?

(AMY CHUCKLES)

Why?

Oh, Em...

(COUPLES CHATTER)

Sam and Jess at the table,

I was right kind of in the middle,

and I was like, ooh!

I don't know what's going on.

Alright, I'm not going to be polite, let's go!

Yeah, like, it's awkward, I think, between them.

Mmm.

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

OK guys, a-a quick toast, shall we?

So, can everyone... is everyone set?

Alright, Byron's been practising his toast!

Yep, OK, OK. Byron.

There's good ships, there's wooden ships,

there's ships that sail the sea.

But the best ships are friendships, and may they always be.

(CHEERING)

To Friendship Island.

Although I dare say,

I dare say the best ships are relationships!

I was going to go on! There was a part two!

(COUPLES CHUCKLE) That's not yet.

Alright, Dani.

(AMY CHUCKLES)

So, did everyone love that intimacy box?

Was it sick? Did everyone have a great time?

Amy? (AMY LAUGHS)

(DANI CHUCKLES)

I mean, I'll take the floor, if I must!

Um, no we had a great time with the intimacy box.

I cuffed up Mikey, I blindfolded him...

And then we (BLEEP)!

(LAUGHTER)

My arse is still sore!

(LAUGHTER)

What a turnaround.

How did you guys go...

Yeah, who's next? ..with the intimacy box?

Ooh!

Ooh... Spicy!

Even though chocolate, my lips are chocolatey enough...

(COUPLES EXCLAIM, LAUGHING) ..she still needed some more.

She couldn't get enough chocolate!

I-I yeah, double chocolate I love.

Double choc. Who doesn't like that?

I love it.

I want to keep the ball rolling here.

I really want to keep it rolling.

I really want to talk about movie night.

Did everyone have a good movie night?

Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I'm keen for this.

We're happy to... we're happy to lead, we're confident.

(JESS SCOFFS) Do we, really?

I'm nervous because Sam's reaction to the video was kind of bizarre!

And it's been really uncomfortable for me.

But I feel like it's going to come back to this...

No, Sam... ..regardless.

It could be jealousy, I guess.

I'm sure he can recognise

that Emanuel's a good-looking guy.

I don't think having this conversation

at the table is the right place to have it.

I don't want him to overreact.

And then for him to cause issues between us.

Um, movie night was super cute.

Exactly what I kind of remember from Jess.

She put me in, like, she pretty much...

Checked him.

Nailed me on the head, immediately.

(EVERYONE CHUCKLES)

But you know, she's-she's stuck.

And then...

Emanuel came in.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I really want to keep it rolling,

I really want to talk

about movie night.

Everyone have a good movie night?

I'm nervous,

because Sam's reaction to the video was kind of bizarre!

We're happy to... we're happy to lead.

We're confident. (JESS SCOFFS)

Do we, really?

I don't want him to overreact.

And for it to cause...

issues between us.

Um, movie night was super cute.

Exactly what I kind of remembered.

And then Emanuel came in.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Emanuel was my type.

And it's been what I've been going for,

for the last four or something years.

Sorry Dani if this...

if I'm being disrespectful at all.

I just want to say that first. Go for it!

And it...

I wasn't in the top three guys, just FYI.

Didn't make... didn't make it.

(LAUGHS)

And we... Yeah... But I said...

and-and I felt...

Oh, I-I feel like...

Let me take this. This is me, yeah?

Yeah, but I want everyone else to know.

You didn't tell me prior to the movie,

that Emanuel was her number two, and...

Because... of history.

..we just didn't, like, what was the obvious reason?

Because I'm here for you. Aw.

Right, yeah, well, yeah, cool.

But I did this... I want everyone to...

And I've been very vocal about that.

Yeah, but I want everyone else to know that you didn't, like...

Yep.

You didn't tell me prior to the movie.

Yep.

Um, and yeah!

You don't really like to let her talk, do you?

Come on no, you're misreading that.

Would you say?

Like, I'm not trying to speak for you here.

So, feel free to jump in.

It's definitely hard to watch

Sam really not give Jess an opportunity to talk.

Um, anyway. Yeah!

Yeah, like, dude, I finished the movie, like, yeah,

super confident in my own skin.

Like...

Yeah, it was, yeah, it was, uh,

like, I-I feel, like-like, it's all good! Like, you know?

I don't feel any...

anything around it.

I-I don't...

I don't know if it's jealousy or if it's just slight insecurity,

but there's... at this moment, that shouldn't even be the worry.

What I think he should be worrying about, is his partner.

And how he's making her feel.

I'm seriously, like I'm saying it to everyone now, like,

I'm so glad that I've seen that video

and that I have come to Couples' Cove,

because I feel way more able to express myself freely!

So, how-how do you feel in this, like,

this scenario right now, being with Jess?

This has just been a crazy whirlwind.

And I still need to...

to... to bring the walls down a little bit,

because Jess, yeah, is very much a match for me,

that I need rather than I want.

I can't fake it.

Like, I'm not going to fake it physically with my partner,

because I'm actually not there just yet.

Like, I'm just not there with her.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

That's not the sort of statement

that you make to a table full of people.

It was so, out of the blue.

I don't know what Sam is playing at here.

Is this revenge or spite?

Whatever it is, um, it was really jarring for me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

I just need to process.

Alright.

(TENSE MUSIC)

The whole table can see what's going on.

Sam is being disrespectful of Jess.

I'm going to grab another drink.

Jess, do you want to have a chat? Yeah.

Yeah, let's have a chat.

I would have liked for Jess

to have pulled me aside at Couples'

Cove last time,

and said oh, hey, one of the guys that I picked is here!

Uh, I feel like that's something that probably should be brought up

to your partner!

And-and now, out of all the people for Jess

to go and talk to at the lunch,

Jess decided to go and speak to Emanuel.

I feel like Jess is actually trying to bait me.

For me to react, for me to look like a real arsehole here.

That's a (BLEEP) stitch-up.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

You want to have a chat? Yeah.

Yeah, let's go have a chat.

On that big log.

Yep. That's a (BLEEP) stitch-up!

Sam telling the entire table that there's no chemistry,

and she's not what I want,

she's what I need...

it-it's hard.

It's hard to swallow.

It makes me feel like I don't matter.

What woman wants to hear that from her husband?

Uh, yeah, I just want to make sure that you're OK.

And... Yeah.

I feel really grateful

for the opportunity to chat to Emanuel.

He's just a decent guy that cares about my feelings.

I mean, I'm not...

I'm not going to sit here and ask you

what Sam said to the boys.

Because I just... Yeah.

There's no point, but,

I have a lot of male friends at home, right?

And so, I talk to guys a lot about stuff.

I've obviously heard from the girls,

but I-I would love, like, a guy's perspective.

Yeah, for sure.

Like, I'm-I'm a dating and relationship coach.

But it's really hard for me to listen

to a guy saying I'm not quite ready,

and then me not have any par of my work come back and be, like...

Hey, mate.

Yeah. Listen to what he just said.

Yeah.

My advice is that you're a very strong woman,

and you're a very smart, intelligent woman,

and me and Dani think so highly of you.

Thank you.

We, you know, we understand

your emotional intelligence is quite high, we can feel that.

I can feel that, you know? Yeah, yeah.

I just want to make sure that you're just, like, you know,

not just, um, talked to or talked at.

Yes, Sam has some, um,

tricky behaviours that he needs to iron out,

but he's also very sensitive.

He's also can-can be very soft, and he can also be very serious,

and I've seen a lot of that.

And so, I don't want to just overshadow that behaviour

with what he said at the table.

I still really want this to work.

Yeah, I mean, I'm willing

to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Yep. I'm trying to let it go.

You know, I'm happy for you guys,

I just wanted to also check in with you because...

Thank you.

..I kind of, just, you know, uh, I didn't...

I didn't want you...

I don't want you to feel like...

Thank you.

..you know, it has anything to do with the person you are.

Yeah. You've got it.

You've got it. I've got this, yep.

(COUPLES CHATTER, LAUGH)

Jess is-is trying her best

to really, you know,

see the best in Sam.

As we all are,

trying to see the best in everyone.

But Sam's being disrespectful to Jess.

And Jess needs to stand up for herself,

and either take a step away,

or stand up and let him know his place.

Smash it, girl. Slash!

Slash!

You're going to... you're already slaying, come on!

(JESS LAUGHS)

You've got the slay with the... with the legs!

I'm quite worked up.

Jess and Emanuel were...

they-they had gone

from the table together.

I feel like Jess is baiting me right now,

to look like a scumbag

after telling here where I was at with this relationship.

I feel like she's upset.

She might be embarrassed.

It's not a good look, man.

It's not a good look.

(COUPLES CHATTER)

Good, I got a, like...

I don't have any male perspectives, on what...

On what? A male perspective.

On what we're talking about.

(COUPLES CHATTER, LAUGH)

I sat there, and I saw them talking about me.

Emanuel is attacking me about not letting her speak.

And I was just made to feel so much like a fool.

Bacon bits! Was that a random comment?

100%. Sorry?

Was that a random comment?

Which one? Emanuel, not letting you talk?

Really? That I don't let you talk?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

That'd be the first time I heard that from you,

if that was the case.

I'm-I'm not saying it.

But you just almost backed it up!

No, I didn't. I said, you're very vocal.

And...

You said it's an... I think it's an observation.

Yeah.

Doesn't matter what Emanuel thinks,

I'm more interested to hear what my partner thinks.

When it's you and I, no, I don't think there's any issue.

Today, there was a lot of...

I feel like I didn't have the opportunity to speak...

Is that something you brought up with Emanuel?

No.

He raised it with me.

Right.

I'm a compassionate person,

and it doesn't make me feel good

to see Sam talk down on Jess like this at all.

He said, I want to make sure you're being heard.

(SAM SCOFFS)

Sam doesn't give Jess

the voice that she deserves.

I will have to call him out.

Yeah, oi Sam?

Listen.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(COUPLES CHATTER)

Was that a random comment?

100%. Sorry

Before, was that a random comment?

Which one?

From Emanuel, not letting you talk?

(COUPLES CHATTER) Really?

That I don't let you talk?

Doesn't matter what Emanuel thinks,

I'm more interested to hear

what my partner thinks.

When it's you and I, no, I don't think there's an issue.

Today, there was a little bit of...

I feel like I didn't have the opportunity to speak.

Is that something you brought up with Emanuel?

No.

He raised it with me. Right.

Yeah, oi Sam?

Listen.

You are making her feel uncomfortable right now.

What?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Anything I would have spoken to your partner about,

is just to encourage her and you, that's it.

It was never...

But I haven't even asked a question!

Yeah, I know but I'm just saying,

it's never, ever...

No, man. There was never anything negative.

So, just to hear that kind of made me feel like, whoa!

It's very difficult to see Sam

speak over Jess constantly.

He speaks over everyone.

You think I'm the person here to try and rock the boat? Like...

No, no, I'm just checking, I'm just checking...

No, check. Mm, yeah, kind of!

Really?

Yeah, I think you're a boat rocker, for sure.

(GIRLS CHUCKLE)

I've seen a new side of Sam today,

and I don't like it at all.

But it's not exactly a new Sam.

Um, I didn't like him on the speed-dating,

and I don't like him now.

I like Sam!

You don't even let your wife speak.

OK, so, I wanted to... Cool!

I won't even talk to my partner about it.

Yep.

Is that how you feel?

(SAM SCOFFS)

I'm-I'm trying to work it out.

I mean, I'm not...

(SAM SCOFFS)

For full transparency, I went to Emanuel

because I have a lot of male friends at home,

and I'm missing that advice and perspective from...

someone that's a guy.

It's kind of my fault, I... Well, look...

Don't-don't take the blame for this!

I don't think you should take the blame.

No, it's OK.

This is the most we've heard you speak in the first place,

anyway, so...

Thanks.

(SCOFFS) I'm, yeah, I'm lost...

I'm lost for words right now.

I have been my true, vulnerable self, today!

In front of everyone!

And now, I've got Amy of all people telling me

that I'm there to cause drama?

I've got Emanuel telling me

that I'm not letting my partner speak at all.

And to top it off my 'partner',

my partner is just sat there

with her lips closed!

I feel like I'm (BLEEP) blindsided as (BLEEP).

Dani, you want to go have a chat real quick?

Sorry, babe.

What are you sorry for?

I just feel sorry for Jess, 'cause she's so genuine.

And she really wants to be here, and she's trying!

I don't even know how she's (BLEEP) trying to make it work with him,

I couldn't even try.

Mmm.

My biggest fear today was that Sam reacts badly

in front of everyone.

And that's exactly what happened.

Yeah. Dude, I'm-I'm cruising.

I'm craving, I'm...

Now, I feel incredibly conflicted

and just...

yeah, drained at the moment.

My heart's not really telling me anything.

This whole thing, it's making me feel stuck.

Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah.

Well, I want to have a chat to Tom privately,

so, I might take him away.

Alright. I'll sit here by myself.

Maybe you want to go and check on Jess for me, or something?

That'd be cool.

Yeah. Maybe you go check on Jess.

Nah, I'm good.

Go check on your wife!

'Go and check on your wife!

Go and check on your wife!' Why would I?

She just threw me under the bus,

more than anything I've ever been thrown under!

I feel like I was absolutely side-swiped!

And she sat there with her lips sealed!

Didn't jump in to help.

I want a partner

that is willing to go to battle with me, immediately.

Are you kidding me? (BLEEP)

This, for me is a total deal-breaker.

That... this is a deal-breaker.

I'm saying right now, I don't want to be with her,

I don't want to be near her, I don't want to be around her.

I don't want a bar of it.
