(INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

HELEN DALLIMORE (NARRATES):
18 singles

from across the country...

Will you marry me?

..took the ultimate
leap of faith.

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)
Let's go.

This is what I've been looking for.

This is a true love story
right here.

I don't wanna be with anyone
that gets arrested.

Sorry. I'm late, everyone.

He was chewing gum
sort of with his mouth open.

Alessandra's intimacy week.

Definitely has brought Mel
closer to Luke.

..helped some couples
progress their relationships.

How was it?

But things stalled for Rebecca.

Who doesn't wanna try?
It's just all lip service.

Before Alessandra held Steve
to account.

Really tread lightly.
I don't take to this well.

And in a dramatic turn of events,
Brook made a sudden exit.

(JOYFUL SCREAMS)

Only to make a surprise
return to the dinner party

just 24 hours later.

I think you're a very rude bitch.

Brook went on the attack.
This is enough.

Shut up, Alissa. Loser.

(LAUGHS)
Oh.

Leaving her husband
isolated and confused.

And then...

..a shock allegation
about Danny preferring Gia.

There was nothing that I ever said.

Why would I make that up?

Caused Bec to spiral...

..unsure whether to believe
her husband or not.

Did she trust me first?

Tonight...

Are you falling in love?

I think, yeah.

..love is in the air.

It's been really good.
That's when the kissing started.

Made her blush. So... (LAUGHS)

Some will celebrate
incredible breakthroughs.

This morning I kissed him.

As Mel and Luke's
transformation continues...

We're doing so good.

I don't even know who you are.

..the experts unpack the question
on everyone's lips.

Did you say that, Danny?

It threw me that she didn't believe
a comment like that.

Absolutely not.

You're not gonna gaslight
a woman right now.

You know what you said.

You have zero credibility.

She wouldn't make that up, dude.

And...

Obviously, yeah, got carried away.

The experts call out
Brook's bad behaviour.

In all my years working
on 'Married at First Sight',

I have never experienced a woman
be so vicious toward other women.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(SOOTHING MUSIC)

It's the morning
of the second Commitment Ceremony

of the experiment...

and our couples are feeling
the shock waves

of last night's intense
dinner party.

Glad we dressed up for that.

I could've gone in my jammies.

Might as well have. At least
I would've been comfortable.

That was a wild night.

I would describe that as unhinged.

(CHUCKLES)

A lot of insults thrown
from Bec, Gia,

Brook towards, you know,
Stella, towards Alissa,

and it was hard to listen to.

It did bother me.

I didn't like it,
but I've definitely felt bad

for Alissa because, like,

I just see this girl
that's she's getting slammed,

and it's pretty intimidating,
I'd imagine.

I care about what people think.
I care about people's feelings.

You know?
I don't wanna have this conflict.

You know?

(SAD MUSIC)

Man, if I could sum up
last night's dinner party,

I feel like it was a pack of wolves
let loose on a village.

All they wanted to do was come in
and tear everything apart.

Alissa is really rocked
by the dinner party,

um, and I just wanna support her
right now.

Like, it feels crap.

You know,
this is damage control right now.

I feel like, you know,
I just need to be the hands

around her and just to comfort her
because it's been a rough night.

Oh, god.

I'm not going to the war zone again.
Last night was enough.

I put on a front,
and I-I handled it...

but I'm not doing it again.

(SAD MUSIC)

It's mean.

And if you can't find anything nice
to say about someone,

just say nothing.

You don't even know me.
You don't know David.

I don't have to sell you
this relationship.

I don't have to sell it to you...

'cause this is my love story...

and it's mean.

(SAD MUSIC)

Alissa wasn't the only one

at the receiving end of Brook's
unsolicited attacks.

Cheers.

Cheers. Good morning.
Good morning.

(KISSES)

Oh, what a night...

literally.

In a way, you're just
bringing to her top of mind.

She's like, "Oh, hang on.

I didn't get what I want
in this experiment,"

and it pisses her off.

I don't know.

Like, it would be only her
that knows the reasons why.

Um...

I don't know.

Um...

the funniest thing
that there was no crime.

There was actually no crime.

They just needed
to create a drama in,

out of thin air, and they did it.

I did have my heart rate up.
Absolutely.

I'm not psychopath.

You know, but I do not give power
to people to antagonise me

in any way, shape, or form.

If I lower myself
to your standard, I lost.

Obviously, there's something to,
for her to deal with her,

with herself internally.

She's got work...she's got work
to do.

Work to do.

This is just childish behaviour.
It's not even worth the aid.

It's not even worth... the effort.

That's-that's no good.
That's-that's no good.

No good. No good.
It's not good.

No good. No good.
It's not good.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Despite Chris's best efforts
during intimacy week,

Brook left the experiment

but made a surprise appearance
at last night's dinner party

with some unfinished business
to attend to.

The runaway bride returns.

The runaway returns.

The funniest thing is-is,
I didn't have a plan

going into the dinner party
last night.

I was like, "I'm just gonna
surprise everyone

and see how the night takes me."

There were
some crazy emotions yesterday.

I mean, I was going with a bang,
and I definitely did that.

You did the whole night.

We can hear it in the hallways.

Everyone's, like, crying and shit.

Oh, really?
Yeah.

Being called a bully,
I then react to that...

Mm.

..which I need to not react to that,
but I can't help it.

I don't regret having a voice
and speaking my opinion.

Um, but, at the end of the day,

obviously, I'm glad that's over
and done with ship sail.

I'm dropping that now.

Mm, I don't even know.
I just don't feel it.

I don't know if Chris is ready
to let this go, um,

but it doesn't change
anything for me.

I still feel how I feel,
and I'm not ready for this,

and he's not either.

But I still went in here
with 100% effort,

and it's not like I didn't.

As Brook looks back on last night,

an even bigger accusation
came to light

that rocked the experiment.

I reached out to Bec this morning
after the dinner party last night,

ah, just to see where she's at.

And I said, "How are you going?"
And she said, "Not good.

You've ruined my relationship.

I'm devastated. Leave me alone."

(TENSE MUSIC)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Be honest. Be honest, Danny.

Watch your mouth, girl.
I'm not watching.

Watch your mouth.
I'm-I'm being honest.

But you don't lie about me. Oh, no.
But you said that.

Don't ever do that.
But you said that.

Just... oh, yeah.

"In the outside world,
you would be my type,"

that is what Danny said.

What did...won't she'd be in love?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Brook obviously
was on one last night.

Brook said it, told her not to.
Brook said what she said.

And now for some reason,

this is all my fault
that they're not...they're not good.

Can you make that make sense

for your man saying something
Sunday night drunk

in front of me and a girl,
and the girl brings it up?

So, why is this my fault?

I just think it's Bec's
insecurities coming out

because she's trying to protect her
own relationship.

She's acting
as if I lured Danny in and said,

"Do you wanna sleep with me
in the bathroom?"

I have no interest in Danny.

He's disgusting. Uh, yuck.

Their relationship's a bit fake
and full of it.

So, she'll put it
on other people's relationships.

Why don't you look
at your own relationship?

Bec's gonna bring it up tonight

and she's going to use me
as a way to,

I guess, bring them back together
in a way so that she can blame

someone else other than her
and Danny.

Because you're scared
to really face the fact

that maybe he isn't into you.

I hope at the Commitment Ceremony
they're open

and they actually tell us
what's going on.

Danny's a liar
and that's all there is to it.

He's-he's going around doing
everything but being accountable

and I'm sick of it.

And she's a fool, a total fool.

Danny was frustrated with Bec
for believing Gia last night

and slept in a separate apartment.

Gia and Brook have definitely
set out to rock my relationship,

and they are succeeding.

I've not felt this low... for years.

Gia and Brook have made this up.
It's not true.

I know it's not true.
I knew it wasn't true last night.

He would never have said
that to her ever.

Ever.

Don't accuse me
of doing things like that

because there's-there's no truth
in that whatsoever.

I need to ride or die.

You should trust me first.

I knew that you were gonna do this,
I'm done.

(SAD MUSIC)

Oi-oi, what's going on?

How are you?

Not the best. How are you?

I'm alright. I'm always good.

Ah. How was your night?

Shocking. How was yours?

You want me to start?

Yeah.

OK.

Last night when Gia whispered to me
at the dinner party

that you had supposedly told her
on Saturday night

that on the outside world...

she would be,
you would wanna be with her,

I didn't believe her for a second,
at all.

And then when you didn't wanna
come back and wouldn't speak to me,

I was like,
"Well, what have I done?"

'Cause I had such a bad time.

And then I was like, so, I'm gonna
have to lay here by myself

in this room, you won't speak to me.

(SOBS)

That was a mad one.

And she was crying now,
and she almost made me feel

like I was in the wrong.

What's all that about?

You got up and you stormed out.
Yeah, I did.

I was like, "Oh, my god.
Is this...is this a thing?"

And then I brought myself
back down to earth

and thought, "No, it's not."

You-you...

I'm obviously not the man you think
I am for you to believe that.

Oh, Danny, stop it.

That's what I believe.
And I have to say the truth, Bec.

This hurts me as well.
Do not think I'm hurting.

It was like a dagger
through the heart

for you to believe her for 1ms...

I know.
..and to your husband.

You threw...you threw our trust away

for her to believe at that
blatant lie over her husband,

um, it just hurt and I just needed
space, simple as that.

Like what I said
at the end of the aisle

when-when I married you was like,

the number one thing I want
in a relationship

and with a wife are two things,
trust and ride or die.

Like, because the...

I am ride or die.

..the-the ride or die
is not believing a lie about me

for one second.

That's ride or die.

I view women how I view my mum.

My mum would never ever betray
my dad, not in a month of Sundays,

not if a thousand people who were
saying bad things about him.

She'd never believe it
for one second.

And that's how I-I view
women off my mum

because that's what I grew up
watching.

That's what I'm looking
for in a woman,

a ride or die like my mum.

So, what does this mean for us?

I don't but I honestly
like to be honest,

my head scrambled with it.

Like, with all due respect, like,
you did betray me in that moment.

Ah.

Like, what do you want me to do?

Sit here and lie and say,
"Everything's fine, Bec.

Everything's fine. I don't care."
I'm done.

What I need from Bec now
is to prove to me

that she is ride or die,

and I don't know
how she's gonna do that.

She's just gotta come up
with something.

(SAD MUSIC)

Go. Go. Yeah. (SOBS)

(SAD MUSIC)

I just don't know how...

A comment which is a lie...

that I believed for a minute...

and then rectified...

could take us from being
where we were to where we are now.

(SOBS)

(SAD MUSIC)

I feel like we worked so hard
to get to where we are.

And now I just feel like
it's ruined.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Our couples are getting ready
for tonight's Commitment Ceremony.

The stakes have never been higher.

We are lions,
and, you know, lions don't worry

about what mice have to say.

Can I see a smile at all?

I don't feel like smiling today.

It's a sad day.
Mm.

What's the aftermath
of what you guys have chosen to do?

Like, they made a choice last night.

And so, are they happy
with how things have gone?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Will they stay
or leave the experiment?

(TENSE MUSIC)

But for one couple,

there has been a complete
180 overnight.

We went through
some challenges in intimacy week.

It's a bit rough around the edges.

Mm-hm. That's fair.

But there were some
really beautiful moments as well.

Grayson and I really did tie up
our intimacy week

in quite a beautiful way.

We have shared our first kiss,
which was really beautiful.

Um, yeah,
it kind of naturally happened.

I just sort of lent in,
and...and...and here we are.

(RELAXING MUSIC)

I'll see you there.

Hopefully,
not as many fireworks tonight.

He's hoping.

Should we get this show
on the road, say goodbye to you?

See you there.
Bye.

(SMOOCHES)

Wanna get in there?

You look amazing.
You too.

Yeah.

You look-look like a good snack.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Greetings, gents.
Hello. How are you?

Well.
Hello, boys.

Good evening.
How are you doing?

Good to see you all.

(TENSE MUSIC)

How're you going?

Good, how are you?
Great.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(EXHALES)

Well, welcome everybody
to the second Commitment Ceremony.

And if last night's dinner party
is anything to go by,

tonight we have a lot to get into.

Now, just a heads up,

our lovely expert Alessandra
has indeed

lost most of her voice.

And therefore tonight,

uh, you may hear a limited
amount from her.

And if she feels
the need to jump in,

she certainly will try.

First up on the couch...

Alissa and David.

(APPLAUSE)

Hello.
Hello.

How are you two? Oh.

Last night was pretty
heavy going for the two of you.

Yeah. Absolutely.

What was it like for you?

Oh, I'm just, uh...

I'm pretty disgusted.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

Last night was pretty
heavy going for the two of you.

Yeah. Absolutely.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

What was it like for you, Alissa?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Oh, I'm just, uh...

I'm pretty disgusted.

Just the disrespect...

the low-grade comments,
high school mean girl energy.

It was yelling, screaming,
storming off, banging on the table.

It was toxic behaviour.

Last night was really hurtful,
like really disgusting,

disrespectful behaviour,
and I am just gutted.

I just didn't wanna be here today.

I did not wanna walk into this room

but I would be letting
my husband down

if I didn't show up for him
and if I didn't stand up for myself.

She was right.
I was so harsh, isn't it?

What is it about your relationship

that you think is getting
under people's skin?

I don't know,

and I don't know
where the comments are coming from.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I haven't said one nasty thing

towards any of these people
sitting in this room.

If there was a reason to come at me,
come at me but talk to me.

Let's resolve this as adults.

Like, we're not
in the high school playground.

Like, let's just talk.

Yeah, it's really hurtful.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Alissa, I need to apologise
to you because my delivery

of what I said
to you was unacceptable.

The way I spoke to you last night,

I need to take accountability
for how cruel I was to both of you.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

I'm sorry for the way
that I spoke to you last night.

It wasn't acceptable.

It was mean and I can assure you
it won't happen again.

And I'm really genuinely sorry
to you both that that's the way

that I came at you.

I-I mean, it's yeah.

What's-what's your response to that?

I just, I'm lost for words.

I actually don't even wanna sit
at a table with half of the people

in this room
because I'm embarrassed.

I'm embarrassed to sit at the table

and share space
with the disrespectful,

the cattiness, the fire starting,
the interrogation.

That is just immature behaviour

and I'm just not here for it
and I'm not standing for it.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

The three of us
observing you were so impressed.

Watching the two of you
work as a team,

not buy into the comments,
stand your ground as a couple.

You turned toward each other.

You supported each other
and you were a real team.

(SOOTHING MUSIC)

You showed real dignity and grace.

It was so incredibly impressive.

So, credit to you both.

At the end of the day,
you can talk crap,

throw all those stupid insults
all you want,

it doesn't mean anything.

But if you're gonna come at my wife

and, you know, talk about women
that way, it says a lot about you.

Disgusting.

You know,
she's-she's a sensitive person.

She comes across a very bubbly,
outspoken.

But when you get to know her,
she's really a sensitive soul.

So, I think she didn't deserve that.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

You know, I'll thank myself
for sitting on this couch

next to my husband and, you know,
standing up for us

and what we've built along the way.

So, things seem
to be going pretty well.

Honestly, fantastic.

I feel like last night
made us even stronger.

Closer together again.
It just made us stronger.

It's like nothing's gonna stop us.
Just go away.

Yeah.
Don't burst a bubble.

Like, just leave us alone.

Like, we're here because we are
totally into each other

and we are giving this 100%.

I'm actually falling for this man.

I'm falling hard for him.

(JOYOUS MUSIC)

I feel the exact same way.

We are definitely
on that cusp of, uh...

It's so good.

..of falling in love and it's crazy,
it's crazy to actually say that.

And I have so much
more to offer her, and, yeah,

I'm just grateful that, you know,
you guys match us together.

And, yeah, I'm definitely
falling for her for sure.

(CALM MUSIC)

So, with that said,
we're gonna go to a decision.

Let's start with you, David.

Oh, OK. I knew it was coming at me.

Well, I mean,
I've already said a little bit

of what I wanna say
about this woman.

She is an amazing woman,
and I can't wait to see

how the rest of this
experience goes,

and I am really falling for her.

So, with that said...

Hey.

Pretty obvious.
Strong statement.

(APPLAUSE)
Love it.

Thank you. And to you, Alissa.

I'm not here for the BS,

and I'm here
to really test this relationship

and to find something rock solid.

This man keeps showing up
for me every day

and I really am falling for you.

So, stay with him, love heart.

(APPLAUSE)

Look, the two of you,
just keep doing what you're doing.

Keep turning toward each other.

Wherever you can, block out
that external noise

because as you've said,
what's important is what's here

between the two of you.

So, continue focusing on that.
Thank you.

Thanks a lot.
Good on you, guys.

Appreciate that.
Well done. Thank you.

(APPLAUSE)

Thank you.
Sure.

(UPLIFT MUSIC)

Our next couple up on the couch...

Mel and Luke.

(APPLAUSE)

Hey.

Oh, I've been looking
forward to this.

Hello you two.

We've been looking forward
to talking to you guys too.

I bet.

It's a whole new couple right here.

Well, I don't wanna speak
for both of us

but I feel like a different person.

You look...
Yeah.

..and sound like a different person.

I don't even know who you are.

I don't know either.
It's so crazy, isn't it?

(CHUCKLES)

What feels different for you, Mel?

Well, I just feel more positive.

Mm-hm.
I feel lighter.

Mm.
And do you know why?

It's because, like, obviously,
at the first Commitment Ceremony,

like, I listened to everything
you all said to me.

I acknowledged your advice.
I took it on board.

I changed my attitude.

I changed my outlook, and that's why
it's changed our relationship.

We're doing so good.

(RELAXING MUSIC)

We just have, just been
more curious with each other,

more open-minded.

When we're speaking to each other,
we've got eye contact.

Just keep in mind, like, us,
a week ago,

we didn't even look eye, you know.

Yeah.
Oh, we know.

Yeah.

Kind to each other,
positive with each other.

Love that.
We love it too.

(LAUGHTER)
Seriously.

Yeah.

Yes.
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

Mel, I'm so impressed with you.

Thank you, John.
I really appreciate that.

You-you had checked out.

I was.

You listened and you let go of,

I guess,
all your sort of expectations.

And you said,
"I'm going to begin now."

Yeah.
We-we really, really did reset.

We drew a line in the sand,
and we said...

Yeah.

.."We're not going back
and looking at anything

that's happened in the past."

Yes, we cannot forget
what's happened

but there's no point
talking about it.

So, we tried to keep it super light.

Super light. Yeah.

Super positive and that's about it.

Mel, you intrigued me
when I first met you

because you talked to me
about pink and blue jobs

in a relationship,
which I'd never heard of before.

Do you understand
what we're talking about?

No.
No.

Can you tell them, please, Mel?
Yeah.

Basically, what it is,
being pink makes you feel feminine.

It makes you feel girly.
It makes you feel light.

It makes you feel
like a pretty fairy, basically.

And then...and then a blue person
makes you feel that way

because they take sort of the weight
off your shoulders.

(SOOTHING MUSIC)

Is Luke someone who is a blue guy

that makes you feel pink?

If you asked me a few weeks ago,
I'd have been like,

no, Luke doesn't make me
feel pink at all

because I wasn't
sort of in my feminine...

Yeah.
..energy.

I was really in that
sort of negative energy

and negative mind-set.

But, yeah, Luke is definitely
a blue guy.

(JOYOUS MUSIC)

That's cute.

Wow.

I gather you two haven't been
living together this week.

No, we haven't.

Are you ready to make
that next step of moving back in?

I'd be...I'd be fine to do it.

I just feel like I'd want to move in

if I felt wanted to-to move in.

Yeah. Right.

I-I definitely do feel nervous
about it.

We've actually developed
a great relationship.

What if it just goes bad again?

(SOOTHING MUSIC)

You know what?
You'll never know until you do it.

I mean, the experiment is all about
getting out of your comfort zone.

Yeah, that's really right.
Moving forward.

You may as well keep going
with that process

because it's working.

Exciting. We got a plan.

Yeah, we do got a plan.

How about we go to a decision?
Yeah, let's just do that.

I'll say first.

Well, it's an obvious one.

I wrote "Stay"
because we've had such a good week.

Yeah.
So, it makes sense.

(APPLAUSE)

I also think that
because we've had such a good week,

it'd be silly for me
to write anything else but "Stay."

Look at that.
Love that.

(APPLAUSE)
Good stuff.

Thanks, guys.

Can I also say it's a great example
for the rest of the group

that they were critical.

They were ready to break up
last week.

A week on, look at them now.

So, it is possible to turn it around
if you invest and go with it.

I see great things.
Thank you.

Uh, go back to the group.

I can't wait to see you next week.

Me too. Cheers.
Likewise. Thank you.

Enjoy.

(APPLAUSE)

Still to come,
a surprising breakthrough.

I kissed him.
Oh.

Yay.

And later...

Did you say that, Danny?
Absolutely not. Of course not.

Danny doubles down.

You know what you said.

Why the hell would I make...
Gia. Gia. Gia.

..stop. I'm talking.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Alright. Let's get our next couple
up on the couch.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Rebecca and Steve.

(APPLAUSE)
You guys. Kudos.

Alright.

Help us understand what's going on.

I don't know where to start, John.

Like, I'm... OK. Sorry, guys.

Um, I don't wanna, uh...
Take your time.

Tell us what particularly
has been disappointing for you.

I came into this experiment
wanting to find love.

I was open. I've been authentic.

I was here
for all the right reasons.

When I first met Steve,
like, we had our connection.

I was thought the experts
have got it right.

We had a great wedding,
great honeymoon.

As soon as I started saying to him,
"I need this from you,"

re-voicing my needs and my wants...

And what...
..telling him how...

I'd say, please let me finish.

Sorry. Sorry. Sorry, I was just...

Yeah.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I felt unheard in the relationship.

I felt like every time
I tried to voice how I was feeling,

I was getting shut down
and spoken over.

I feel like he wasn't vulnerable.
He didn't show up for me.

And I just feel that I've been
matched with someone

that hasn't been all in with me.

How hasn't he been all in?

He's too concerned

about what everyone else's
perceptions of Steve.

The Intimacy Week,
we didn't do a lot of it.

And when I ask him, why not?

It's like fruit salad,
just lip service.

It didn't make any sense.

Steve, what do you say to that?

I just disagree.

We did have, again,

what I would consider to be
a personality clash on...

I just stop you there.

(TENSE MUSIC)

You use the term personality clash.

Yeah.
That's a cop out?

What do you mean by that, though?

I tell you what I mean.
Yeah, please.

What is the clash?
What is it about the personality?

It's a very general term.
It's a throwaway comment.

Get specific.

Um, the discussion
started off being around.

You know, look, I'm sure a lot
of people have, you know,

not come in here with, um, you know,

knowing that they're gonna
find the one.

Surely, they've got, you know,
other motives and whatnot.

Rebecca said, not me.

I came in here for love only,
and, you know, it became very fiery.

Both of us, we don't communicate
well in those circumstances.

There's a complete disconnect
with how Rebecca sees a situation

and how I see it.

To be honest, there's no winning
or losing in that conversation.

It's almost like...
OK.

So, you're...
It's not about personality.

Well, or maybe it was just...

It's actually
about a communication style.

Yeah. OK.

Everyone has different patterns.
Yep.

But they can certainly be adjusted.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

After the last Commitment Ceremony
where I said to you,

"You've got your partner
sitting there saying,

I don't feel desired."

Mm-hm.
"Do something about it."

Mm-hm.
What have you done?

Um, I got in touch with Rebecca, um,

and invited her to lunch
on the Sunday.

Rebecca decided to go out
with other people on the Saturday

and I got cancelled
on-on Sunday morning.

It emotionally sets you back
a little bit,

and so, we didn't get to bond

when other people
had some time together.

And then we had a good Monday
when we came back together.

I think all came good again.

So, Steve, what about
after the Commitment Ceremony?

Yes.

You had the ability...
Oh, we...

..to Monday, Tuesday, today.

What have you done?

Well, Tuesday,
we had the dinner party,

so, we didn't really...

Steve, since you last saw me
sitting on this couch...

Yes. Yeah.
..it's a very simple question.

And I thought I was trying to...

Have you take her out for coffee,
a walk...

Yes.

..woken up saying
how was your sleep

and shown the nice gestures yet?

Because I haven't heard it.
Always.

Oh.

I've-I have done that.

Rebecca,
has he done any little favours

to show that he's interested?

No, Scott. He hasn't.
There's your answer.

I get up in the morning.
I give you kisses.

That's right, you make...
I get you a coffee.

He's made me...

I say, can I go get you coffee

and bring you takeaways.

Can I say?

He made me, he has made
me coffee a couple of times.

What have you done
to make her feel desired?

Apart from the organising lunch,
nothing.

Why?

Because I'm not romantically,

you know,
wanting to lead Rebecca on.

And I was kind
of given the impression

I now have to be a bit more genuine

with myself and with Rebecca.

And so, after meeting
with Alessandra,

it did make me think,
be honest with myself.

I'm gonna take you back
to the first time

you and I met via video.

Yes.

And we had a pretty
open conversation

about your past relationships.

Yeah, we do.

And the fact
that you described yourself

as being pretty selfish
in past relationships.

Mm.

It was all about you and your needs
as opposed to your partner.

You made yourself a bit of a promise

was that you were gonna
come into this experiment...

Mm.

..and try things differently.

Mm-hm.

How do you feel about that now?

I think I've tried very, you know,
in my own way I think I've tried,

and I think I've tried to progress,
um, faster than...

You think you've been
selfish in this relationship?

No, I don't think I've been selfish.
No, I don't.

I've-I've always asked Rebecca
to be herself.

I said, "You do you." You know?

Look at her now.

Sorry.
Look at her now.

What's that?
Look at her.

Yes. I know.

And I've been literally with Rebecca
for the last few weeks

and I've always been there
for her when she's feeling this way.

What could I say?
It's all lip service.

But when I say
I've been there for you but...

It's all fruit salad
and Caesar salad

and Greek salad all mixed in.

Alright. Alright.
It really is. It really is.

Steve, you tell us now,

have you contributed to the problems
in this relationship?

Oh, I miscommunicate with her

as much as she miscommunicates
with me.

It's half-half.

I want you to stop talking
about her because...

How?
..that's a real problem.

OK.

Spotlight is on you.
Yep.

What do you do
to contribute to the problems

in this relationship, you alone?

(TENSE MUSIC)

I don't know. I-I...

That's why I ask you
because you should know.

What we hear now is a guy
that's sitting there going,

"You know, I'm not selfish.

I've given it my all."

I don't think
you have given it your all.

You are not able
to answer the question.

I thought
I had answered the question.

You haven't. You've just said...

I-I don't know the other reasons.

So, from your expert point of view,

tell me what you've seen
that I'm not doing...

I need you...I need you to tell me.
..and what I need to do.

I'm not sure.

I can't give you the answer...

other than the fact
that I thought I was trying.

This is a very important time
for you, Steve, because...

this moment, you can actually start
looking inwards.

What else might be a problem...

in terms of this relationship
and what you contribute to it?

No. Obviously, I've said no. So...

If we pivot
and go to the Intimacy Week,

there was an exchange
between you and Alessandra?

Yes.

Can you tell me
why it is that you became

so fixed against what Alessandra
was telling you about?

Um, I don't know if I-I wasn't sure

if I was fixed against
what you were saying.

To refresh your memory,
what actually happened,

you had a very difficult time
listening to an opinion

that differed from yours.

It was about not Steve's desires
and Steve's space

but understanding
what Rebecca wanted.

And you pushed back hard,
you spoke over me,

you disrespected me with your words

and also with the tone of voice
that you spoke.

You were skirting around issues.

And, of course, when you don't
give clear concise answers,

I will push back and try
and get something precise from you,

and that was impossible
to get from you.

And tonight,
it's been pretty impossible again

for you to give
any precise definitions

to these things that sound
very much like lip service.

OK.

Rebecca has been very forthright

about liking the possibility
of creating something with you,

wanting to move forward,

really championing and cheering
for that,

and you putting the brakes.

And if it's not at your pace,
then it becomes a problem.

Every time she's tried to speak up,
it has become a problem.

So, I think you have a little
reflection to do

as to where this miscommunication
really stems from

and how it is that you get here.

Hmm. OK.

OK.

Well, look, think it's time
that we go to a decision

with the two of you.

Steve.
Sure.

Um, we started off
fantastically well.

And, yeah, and since then
it's been going downhill.

I chose to, uh, to Leave.

And to you, Rebecca.
OK.

Whoa. Thank you for finding me
a match.

It hasn't quite worked out.

Came here for love
and I didn't get what I wanted.

I'm not gonna settle
and waste any more of my time.

I wrote "Leave" with a kiss.

I think this experience
is gonna bring up

some opportunities for reflection.

I really hope that there are some,

you know,
really valuable lessons here

that you can take on board in terms
of moving into this next chapter.

You both know what you need...

Yeah.
..in your next relationships.

Go out and get it.

Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thank you all of you.

And, Alessandra, I'm, I never
meant to, you know, any,

you know, speaking over you.

I apologise.

It was, um,
something I need to get better at,

and that's something
I've taken on board.

I really have.

So, um...
I appreciate that.

..I thank you for the feedback. OK?

Well, there's apologies
going around.

Is there an apology for me for being
robbing me off the experience?

I-I-I've enjoyed
being doing this with you.

You know that. We've had...
Yeah.

..some great times.

We have.
It's been amazing.

I just, anyway.

It's not the ideal finish but...

Yeah.
..we've been doing well.

Yeah. It's been (BLEEP) fine.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Well, let's get our
next couple up on the couch.

Grayson and Julia.
Yay.

(APPLAUSE)
Hello.

You look so amazing.

Aw.
I need this outfit of you.

Well, I've gotta say
the energy between the two of you

is very different from last week.

Yeah.
OK.

What's going on?
(CHUCKLES)

Yeah.

So, um, this morning, I kissed him.

Oh.

Hey.
Woo!

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

Grayson seems happy about that.

Yeah.

Well, what did the kiss
do to your relationship?

Yeah. It was very unexpected for me.

I was like, this isn't gonna happen

unless I let him know
that I'm open to that.

Yes.

And so that felt really necessary
for me

to be the-the one to-to do that.

And I think it was necessary
for Grayson

to-to have that very clear cue
that this is now OK.

Yeah.
Yeah.

So, in having the kiss,

did you feel there was chemistry

between the two of you
in that sense?

Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah-yeah.

I love the way
both your faces light up

when you talk about this kiss.

(LAUGHS)
Which is lovely to see.

And with that being the case,
let's get to the decision.

You first, Grayson.
Me? Alright.

Stay or leave?

I'm fully in this,
so, I'm gonna "Stay."

Good.
(APPLAUSE)

Uh, Jules, what are you gonna do?
Stay or leave?

So, I've written "Stay."
Right.

Oh, a little love heart.
So, he's still more snogging.

(APPLAUSE)

Well done, guys.
Good stuff.

(APPLAUSE)

Alright.
Let's get our next couple up.

Rachel and Steven.

Woo.
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

I love it. Let's go.

Hello.

Hello, you two.
Hello. Johnny, how are you going?

Got a story to tell you.
Yeah.

So, tell us about this Intimacy Week

because clearly it had an impact
on you in a positive way.

I rejected a simple kiss
on that ultimate fantasy

and essentially rejected her.

She was standing there vulnerable,
and I hurt her feelings,

and I felt terrible
how I made Rachel feel.

When it comes to intimacy,
I'm a bit of a dope

when it comes to it,

but I took Alessandra's advice
on very seriously

through the workshop, and I'm really
leaning into the tasks now.

Intimacy Week has made me feel

a lot more comfortable
around Rachel.

Fantastic.

Uh, it's a step forward for me,
and it's a massive step forward.

Right after your workshop,
Alessandra, he turns up at my door,

12-long stem roses.

Aw.
Yes.

What's a girl to do but swoon?

Like, I'm sorry.
She was swooning like a schoolgirl.

What I love is that you persevere
and move closer to her.

There are times
when you drop the ball

but what you don't do is give up.

And you can see him doing that.
I can.

That's why...
Look, it's why I'm still here.

It's why I moved back.
Yeah.

'Cause I could feel him trying.

I could feel it.

So, you did move back in?
I'm back in the house.

You're back in.

And I was very happy to be back.

And how's it been?
It's been good.

OK.
It's been really good.

That's when the kissing started.

Made her blush. So... (CHUCKLES)

I made her blush a bit too, I think.

Um, I don't know. I thought
that was a sweet-sweet moment.

Well, that's nice.
That's a nice way to describe it.

Yeah.

So, Rachel, how do you feel
about Steven right now?

I like Steven.
The crush grows for me.

The feelings are growing.
The crush grows?

The crush grows. It grows.
Getting bigger.

And that's
because he's trying with me.

Alright. Let's go to the decision.

Rachel.

I said to Steven that I'd give him
a chance to show me

that he's trying, and he has.

I'm staying.

(APPLAUSE)
Love it. Fantastic.

Steven, over to you.

I don't wanna be a quitter.

I know I'm gonna stuff up along
the way, and I hope I don't stuff up

much-much more because I've...

Stop. Oh. (CHUCKLES)

..I've done
a few stuff ups, and, you know,

hopefully, next week
is a much better week

and I can come in and go,
I aced it and I wrote "Stay."

Yes.
(APPLAUSE)

Oh.
Yes.

You are gonna make mistakes,
both of you.

Yeah.
Don't quit.

I'm not gonna be perfect,
I'm just gonna try here.

And if I make mistakes,
I'll pick myself up,

I'll keep going forward.

Thank you, guys.
Thank you all so much.

Well done. Good on you.
Good work.

Thanks, John.
Beautiful, Rachel.

Thank you.

(RAIN POURS)

(TENSE MUSIC)

Alright.
Let's get our next couple up.

Gia and Scott.

Oh, we're here.
Let's go.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Good evening.
Evening.

Hello.

Where do you wanna start?

Firstly, I wanna apologise
to the entire group.

Um, yesterday,
my behaviour was really not OK.

(SAD MUSIC)

Especially, I wanna focus
on Alissa and David though

because I really,

I came at you and I didn't
have enough information to go off.

I went crazy and I really want you
to know that I am genuinely sorry.

And I think you guys are like this,

and I'm-I'm really happy
for you guys.

And Stella as well.

I'm sorry about last night joining
in with Brook and,

like, going over the top like it
was just not OK, my behaviour.

So, sorry.

Well, thank you for that, Gia.

Your behaviour last night was ugly.

It was mean.

This is something
that you need to take on board.

I cannot stress that enough.

Yeah.

I am curious to know
where that came from

'cause I haven't seen that before.

Yeah.

Um, I've had a quite
an emotional few days.

Like, we had our first argument.

Oh.
Yeah.

Um...

We're bound to have one.
It was gonna happen.

But, you know, we went out.

He was really tired
and wanted to go home.

Obviously, he doesn't drink.

So, you know, sober person
in a room full of drunk people is,

like, not always a fun time.

And I probably should have listened
to him and gone home at 08:00

when he said and I didn't...

I totally apologise to him.

I was-I was a kind of,
accountable for my behaviour,

and it, like, I would never do
that again.

It, like, made him uncomfortable.

And what did that do
to the two of you?

Um...

in reflection of the weekend,

it's actually taught me a lot
on a positive note...

because it's, I've experienced
now social environments

and just how do we handle
one another around people.

And I think it was just,
it was more the aftermath,

you know, a big night the next day,
emotions start coming out.

And just, you know, some things
hurt me a bit,

which we communicated with, and I'd,

I faced it straight away
because it really did hurt me.

What sort of things?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Just, uh, and it could be
a thing of emotions start coming out

but words I didn't appreciate was,
"You don't like me,

you're here for the wrong reasons,
and I can get any guy I want."

Coming up...

I just wanted to do the right thing.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I have never experienced
a woman be so vicious

toward other women.

What the heck?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Words I didn't appreciate was...

"You don't like me,
you're here for wrong reasons

and I can get any guy I want."

(TENSE MUSIC)

I'm not putting you under the bus,

it's because I really care
about you.

Wait. You're talking about
what I said when I was drunk?

No, this is the next day.

(SAD MUSIC)

And it could be a-a thing of,
you know, it's been a big night.

Yeah.

You know, words do hurt me,

and that's kinda
what's taken me a step back.

Gia, explain to me

why you would say to Scott
that you could get any guy you want?

(TENSE MUSIC)

I do tend to self-sabotage.

If something's going too well,
I find a reason to, like,

push back a bit.

Oh, it's too good.

Like, it's not, you know,
let me throw some shit at it

and see what happens.

And you certainly did that. Yeah.
Yeah.

It was like
self-destructive behaviour.

So, do you feel like
you're testing him a little bit?

A little bit. Yeah.

And I know it's bad
but I feel like I am to see, like,

if he'll hang around.

You're doing these self-sabotage
type of behaviours

and I'm wondering
what you're scared of.

I'm like scared to fully let him in

because I'm scared
I'm gonna get hurt.

(SAD MUSIC)

It's hard for me because,
like, in my previous relationship,

the wall had to stay up
because I was never protected.

I-I don't wanna go into this and do
the same thing but it's just,

it's harder for me to pull the wall
all the way down.

It's really scary for me
to be honest.

I can see that.
Yeah.

What are you afraid
that might happen

if you let the wall down?

That I'll get hurt.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

But if you notice
how I speak to your daughter,

I speak to your mum, I show efforts,
I'm there every day...

No, you do.
..for you.

Like...

Yeah.

..there's no reason
to not allow me in.

It's one of the things where, like,

we're still a little bit
early in the experiment.

We've now had a hurdle.

We're... We've had such
a beautiful time.

Like, I keep saying,

I'm all in on this and I see
so many more positives.

Some things that weren't meant
to be said happened.

And I know you don't mean it
but as long as you're self aware,

I just don't want it happen again.

But-but it's very...
it's very important

what you've heard from Gia tonight

is that she's testing you
not because she doesn't like you

but you're also pushing him away.

Yep.

And so you're on notice with that.

Yep.

You've got a guy
that adores you right now,

who fits exactly what you want.

But if you keep doing
what you're doing,

he's gonna start to lose interest.

Gia, how do you feel about Scott?

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

I really like Scott.

Everyone would probably agree,
like, genuine, kind-hearted.

I've let him in my whole life,
and I mean,

he's met my daughter on FaceTime.

Yeah, I don't want it to end
to be honest.

(SOOTHING MUSIC)

It's funny because I feel
like we're in a ten-year marriage

already the way we carry
on our lifestyle and our routine.

You know what I mean?

Like...
Yeah.

..we wake up in the morning.

As soon as we get up,
we're both on the other side,

we pull the sheet over.

It starts there,
and it's like we're aligned.

It makes me feel complete

because it's like that's
what I was missing

and I just can't stop smiling.

Let's go to the decision.

Gia.

Um, I'm obviously gonna "Stay."
Good.

(APPLAUSE)

Scott, stay or leave?

'Course I'll "Stay."

(APPLAUSE)
Good.

Yes.

Well done.
Well, you've learned a lot.

You kinda know exactly
what direction you need to go in.

Yep.
Now, let him in.

I know it's scary but that's
where the fairy tale lies.

Yep.

And you gotta embrace
it if you want it.

Yep.
Alright.

Back to the group.
Thank you.

Thank you.
Appreciate it.

Well done, you guys.

Yew!

Our next couple up on the couch...

Bec and Danny.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(APPLAUSE)

Hi, guys.
Hello.

How are you all?

We're doing pretty well.
What about you two?

Not good.

Bec, you look
like you're really struggling.

(SAD MUSIC)

Help us understand what's going on.

Um, we had like the best week.

Alessandra's Intimacy Week
was amazing for us.

And then last night,
Gia made a comment to me

that on Saturday night,
Danny said to her...

"In the outside world,
you would be the type of girl

that I would be interested in,
not me."

Did you say that, Danny?

Absolutely not. Of course not.

(TENSE MUSIC)

So, I walked off,

and then he stayed somewhere else
last night.

And then today when he came in,

he basically said to me that...

we've got no trust because...

because he wants someone

that's a Bonnie and Clyde
kind of love.

And that because I believed him
for a minute...

that, basically,
I have to rebuild the trust

and he doesn't know
what I can do to do that.

Sorry.

So, Danny, you were saying
that Bec had broken your trust.

For me, obviously,
when we spoke this morning...

(TENSE MUSIC)

..there was just like, it threw me

that she'd even believe a comment
like that.

(TENSE MUSIC)

And, Bec, where do you sit on this?

Do you believe Danny at this point?

(TENSE MUSIC)

I don't think he would do that
because I know how loyal he is,

and that's something
that we're basing

our whole relationship off of.

And I know I've broken your trust
and I'm sorry.

I was just in a, on a diff...
I-I was a space cadet last night.

I was on a different planet.

It's alright.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Absolutely not. You're not gonna
gaslight a woman right now.

You know what you said.

Why the hell would I make...
Gia. Gia. Gia.

Stop. I'm talking.

(RAIN POURS)

(TENSE MUSIC)

Absolutely not. You're not gonna
gaslight a woman right now.

(TENSE MUSIC)

You know what you said.

Why the hell would I make...
Gia. Gia. Gia.

Stop. I'm talking.

Why would I make this up?

I'm so happy in my match
and my relationship.

(TENSE MUSIC)

You're making her feel like
she can't trust you now,

when you've lied.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Gia, you have zero credibility.

I swear on my daughter's life.
Do not lie.

You and I both know the truth,
and you know what you said.

And now you're trying
to cover your ass.

Scott, you was there with me
the whole night.

She wouldn't make that up, dude.

Gia. Gia.

No, I'm not going back
and forth on this.

Can I just say one thing?

Not interested anymore.
You're not interested?

It's gonna go around and around.
Like, he's never gonna admit it.

He's never gonna.

He's saying, I lied.
Why would I lie?

Please get a lie detector test.
Please.

(TENSE MUSIC)

So, Danny, you're saying
that Gia's description of you

didn't happen.

That didn't happen. No.

It's just weird
how no-one else heard it.

And-and, Bec, if he did say that,

would that be something
you could move past?

No. No. It's not.

Why is that?

It's hard for me because
we've had such a good week

where it felt like the connection
was so intense and amazing.

And I feel like
we've got a real connection.

So, like, for-for, I-I...

No, I'm not...I'm not...I'm not
gonna believe that.

I'm not gonna believe it.

I would be doing our relationship
an injustice

if I didn't believe him
and respect him.

We're in this relationship.

Do you trust me?

Yeah, I do.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Why do you say that?

Because I'd-I'd, like I do.

I don't think she'd betray me
on no major level.

It frustrated me.
Do know what I mean?

But it's not, nothing,
that can't be fixed.

That's why I'm still here.

Alright.

What you're gonna need to do
this week particularly is be kind,

to have that mind-set.

That's all you gotta focus on.

Make sure
you're there for each other.

We're gonna go to the decision.

We're gonna start with Danny.
Stay or leave?

Obviously,
it's been a bit of a rough 24 hours

but I still wanna stay
and work through this.

Good. Good. I like that.

(APPLAUSE)

And for you, Bec?

It's 100% stay,

and there's a little "Adore u"
next to it.

Thank you.

On that you can go
back to the group.

Thanks, guys.
Thank you, guys.

Oh-huh.

(APPLAUSE)

Can I get a kiss, please?

Next up on the couch,

Stella and Filip.

(APPLAUSE)
Woo!

Hi. How are you going?
Good.

How are you?
Great. How are you?

Yeah. We're going alright.

We're just...yeah.

Stella, you know, last night was,

you know, pretty intense for you.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Uh, the spotlight hit,
and they came for you.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I watched closely
to see how you would act

under that sort
of intense challenge.

Mm.
And you didn't react.

You stayed very calm...

and you were very mature.

Thank you.

And it was quite outstanding
to watch.

Now, you've had some apologies
since then.

Uh, how's that landed?
How do you feel about it?

The apologies?
Yeah.

Um.

Hmm.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

Look, apology...

is worth nothing
without changed behaviour.

So...

unfortunately,
I can't witness changed behaviour

just yet, if ever.

I don't hold grudges but, yeah,

you know, apology without
changed behaviour is nothing.

And what did that do to you,

Filip, when you saw her in that sort
of situation and how she responded?

When she's getting
pressed and when, you know,

when things are not comfortable,
you know, she keeps her cool.

But I-I just really wanna put it
out there and just say,

I really respect
how you handled yourself.

Like, how you talk to people
and approach life,

I dare say that that's like
your greatest superpower.

She held her own and-and,
like, yeah.

And now we just choose to,
we're just,

in our own lane
we got the horse blinkers on,

we're just doing our thing.

Yeah.

You know, like, we're just up
in each other's grill,

having a good time, and it's good.

Stella, how deep
are your feelings for him now?

Um...

Whatever future holds.
It's good. Yeah.

Yeah. I've never met
a man like him.

Wow.

How I'm feeling,
it just unlocks so much more

beauty to my life.

Like, so, as much as it feels
surreal, I feel like, um...

it was just meant to happen.

So, are you falling in love?

I think yeah.
Wow.

I feel very mushy, very vulnerable,

you know,
and that obviously means...

that obviously means that, you know.

So, yeah.

What about you, Filip?
Do you feel the same way?

Um...

She knows that I definitely
feel a certain way about her.

And, um, yeah, so I can definitely
see myself starting to offer her.

For sure, definitely.

Well, I don't think, ah,
there are gonna be any surprises

here but we're gonna go
to the decision.

Stay or leave, and we're gonna go
with you first, Stella.

Obviously, not a question, right?

So... (CHUCKLES)
Great.

A mere formality.

(LAUGHS)
Ah, for you, Filip.

Every week keeps getting better
and better with you, no doubt.

Uh, and I'm looking forward
to the next one,

so I'm going to write, "Stay."

(APPLAUSE)
Love it, guys.

Off you go.

Yay, guys.

(APPLAUSE)
(JOYOUS MUSIC)

And last up on the couch...

Brook and Chris.

After you.
Thanks.

Hello, you two.

Hello.

Hi.
Hi.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Alright. Where do we start
with you two?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Oh, gosh.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(RAIN POURS)

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

Alright.
Where do we start with you two?

Oh, gosh.

Um, before we start,
I just wanna say,

um, especially to Alissa, Stella,

I'm extremely sorry for my actions
last night.

I feel so much guilt and, um,
you know, regret today.

Um...

I, you know,
I did take it too far last night.

Um...

Um, there's no excuse
for that behaviour,

and I'm really sorry I took it
too far and I shouldn't have.

So, I'm sorry.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

Well, just on that, Brook,

why did you react like that
at the dinner party?

Um, I think for me walking in,

there was a lot of things
that I was a little bit upset

with that had happened...

and there was things
that I wanted to vocalise.

But my emotions got
the better of me,

and I came out and attacked.

Um, no-one's perfect.
I know I'm definitely not perfect.

Um, that's not who I am.

I don't even do
that in the outside world.

So, I was like,
why did I do that in here?

I mean, I can only apologise
and take accountability.

So...

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

..I wasn't even gonna
be there to start with.

Um...

Well, just on that, Brook,
you decided to up and leave.

Yeah.

Take us there.
What was that all about?

Um, since the video,
I've had my guard up still.

I had tried to let it go down.
Um, I felt really sad.

I think also sad
because I know how hard

Chris is trying as well um, to,
you know, get us progressing.

But in the same time, there's things
in actions that Chris has done

that I can't move past.

As much as I've got a lot of work
to do on myself, um, you know,

Chris and I have discussed,

he's got a lot of work to do
on himself as well.

We get along like a house on fire.

We enjoy each other's company
but it's friends.

Chris, if I jump in,

what impact did it have on you
when Brook left?

I just...
It was just a little bit rushed,

and that was probably the only part
that sort of made me

a little bit uneasy
but-but saying that again...

Did it hurt?

Not...not...not hurt, no.

It wasn't like I was blind sided
in any means.

What would be the feeling?

Just the feeling of that void
that was left.

And did you feel rejected?

No.

Not really rejected

purely because I knew
to get to where we are now

has been mostly my fault.

I know that Brook
is-is an amazing person

and-and giving
as-as much as she can.

I know...I know that I've been
more or less the problem in this.

So, I've never...I've never
once felt blind sided by Brook.

Thank you.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Chris, do you have
romantic feelings for Brook?

Um, Just I've gown,

I've got...I've got feelings
for Brook.

Yes.
Romantic ones?

What-what defines romantic?

Well, more than a friend.

Obviously, I care. I care...I care
a lot about her. Yeah.

If she was interested
in exploring that with you,

is that something
that you'd be keen to do?

I think...I think throughout
the experiment,

we've had issues obviously
with the-the video

and things like that.

That it's-it's gotten Brook
to this point where she,

her-her guard is up,
and she just doesn't really see,

especially in this experiment,
anything progressing with us.

I know exactly how she feels
towards me

and towards this whole experiment.

So, it means I feel...

How does she feel towards you?

She knows she's got a lot of care

and...and...and emotional
respect for me.

We just know
that it won't work in here.

But I'm-I'm more at the point
where I'm like,

it's not that it won't work in here.

It's the fact that it's like,

it won't work on the outside either,
Chris.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I'm not saying like
we're ending this

and we're gonna be 100%
on the outside.

Yeah.
Like, that's not it.

No. No. It's more...

Like, you're go off
and live your life.

Yeah.
Do better for you.

You work on yourself.

If you wanna do whatever
you wanna do, do that.

And I'll do the same with me.
Yeah.

You know, we have such
a beautiful friendship.

And there's things and actions
that Chris has done

that I can't move past.

I have had to hold your hand
the last couple of weeks.

I have to ask you to apologise

to people and, like,
things like that, and I'm not,

I didn't come here
to hold your hand.

And in my life, I've always
had to hold my own hand.

And so I want my hand
to be held now.

Which is fair.

You alright?

And, Brook, why-why did you
come back?

Um, I mean, I left, and within,
like, two hours of being home

as much as I was enjoying the sun
and the Gold Coast,

I felt guilty for leaving Chris.

I had guilt that I'd left,
and I was like,

I need to get back there, and so,
that's why I decided to come back.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I just wanted to do the right thing.

Just whatever.

(GROANS)

Can I share
an observation with you, Brook.

So, you're saying that,
you know, you felt guilty

about-about leaving Chris,
so, you wanted to come back.

But observing you coming
into the dinner party...

Mm.

..you quickly acknowledged him

and then shifted your focus
to the rest of the room.

Mm.

And we didn't see you
interacting with Chris much.

Could you see how it might
have looked like you came back

to have a go at people?

100%.

(SAD MUSIC)

Why do you think you did that?

Why did I not talk to Chris
at the beginning?

Yeah.

Obviously, yeah, got carried away.

So, at the last Commitment Ceremony

when we were here,

you had some issues with the way
Chris spoke about women

in his audition...

Mm-hm.
..video.

I guess I'm just reflecting
on last night

and observing you, Brook.

I know and I've taken
full accountability and...

And the way that you spoke to women.

Oh.

Can you see
how that feels a little bit at odds

with the attitude you're having
toward Chris last week.

100%.

And I get that you're sitting here
and saying that but I'm like,

also, it was a tough week,
and I wasn't feeling myself.

Um, you know,
it was a difficult situation.

Like, there's been a few things
that I've just kind of struggled

to get past in this experiment...

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

..but I've still gone out
of my way to go and apologise.

Sorry. Can I just jump in there?

I've gotta say in all my years

working on 'Married at First Sight',

I have never experienced a woman

be so vicious toward other women.

Mm.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

In all my years working
on 'Married at First Sight',

I have never experienced a woman

be so vicious toward other women.

Mm.

It was relentless.

Mm.

And to continue doing
that for several hours

without barely taking a breath,
it was vicious.

Mm.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I'm gonna go to the toilet quickly.

What the heck?

I'm just going to the loo.

(TENSE MUSIC)

But you've just got to...

(TENSE MUSIC)

(HUMS MUSIC)

No, I think Brook's gone.

I don't think she's coming back.

Hopefully not.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Yeah. Once Brook gets back.

Yeah.

And she was like, see you later.

She knew they were about
to get into her and she went drunk.

Yeah. Sure.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(CLEARS THROAT)

Chris...

I've got some news.

Unfortunately,
Brook is not coming back.

She's decided to do
a runner... again.

I'm not... Nah. Nah.

(TENSE MUSIC)

No.

It just shouldn't have ended
that way for them.

Tomorrow night, the experiment
enters its next exciting chapter.

To fall in love in this experiment
would mean everything.

Over two big nights,
love will be in the air.

I'm definitely ready to share
my life with someone.

When three brand new couples
enter the experiment.

I'm just ready to go all in.

First, we meet the regimented groom

who's struggling to find true love.

If they have children,
that's the first red flag.

I'm not here to look
after someone else's kids.

That's not my job.

If the person across from me
today embraces woke culture,

we'll have a problem.

Plus.

This outgoing bride is looking
for her eccentric class clown.

Shall we get married?
I'm hungry.

But will the groom's wedding vows...

I've actually got many flaws.

Carpet, tiles, wood.

You name it, baby.

(CROWS CAW)

..or his mother's
unusual tribute...

And you turn into a gluttonous pig.

..derail the wedding day.
