NARRATOR: Previously...
Hello!

Wifey!

..two brand-new couples
took the ultimate leap of faith.

Tyson. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. (LAUGHS)

NARRATOR: Outspoken Tyson
was concerned his new bride

might be too dominant...

I'm exceptionally goal driven.

She did give across
masculine energy.

I want submissive vibes.

Otherwise, we're going
to have problems.

..before making his expectations
very clear.

What?

He hasn't got to push them out.

I've actually got many flaws.

Carpet, tiles, wood.

NARRATOR: And when Juliette
married Joel...

He still likes to lie on my lap
and have me scratch his back.

..unique wedding speeches

planted seeds of doubt for Juliette.

Yeah, I'm definitely a bit worried.

Maybe he's in it
for the wrong reasons.

NARRATOR: Tonight...

I'm a farmer and a gym owner.

I'm a fitness trainer by trade
but I am happiest outside.

NARRATOR: It's one of the most
incredible matches

the experiment's ever seen.

I feel like I've put my career first

but now, I want to focus on this.

I have thrown myself into my career

but now, I'm ready
to put love first.

Are they my vows?

I know, right! I know!

NARRATOR: The final couple
to enter this year's experiment.

Stop!

NARRATOR: The original couples
celebrate their first milestone.

There's no other way of explaining
our relationship

but for us to be just extra.

NARRATOR: And Julia drops
an unexpected bombshell...

"That burning desire doesn't seem
to be growing."

..leaving Grayson in shock.

It's hard.

NARRATOR: And then...

My rig's a lot of maintenance.
It's like a Ferrari.

NARRATOR: Stephanie
and Tyson's honeymoon

goes from bad...

Is it the situation or is it me?

I'd probably say it's you.

..to worse...

I don't want a slave for a wife.

All's I want is just
a submissive wife.

..as Stephanie butts heads
with her opinionated new husband.

Anyway.
Wow!

My blood is boiling.

I don't know who he thinks he is.

NARRATOR: Having returned
to their accommodation for the night

new bride, Juliette, is still
struggling to make sense

of the wedding speeches.

I need to talk with my husband.

I just want to have a conversation
with him

with my concerns because, yeah,
I think it's, like, worrying.

NARRATOR: Earlier,

husband Joel's performative speech
failed to land.

Through highs and lows,

my loyal for you will remain
as strong

as my BO after a Barry's class.

NARRATOR: But when Joel's mum,
Sharon, took her turn on the mic...

He was a baby that did not sleep.

..Juliette began questioning
if he was here for the right reasons

As he got older, he turned
into a gluttonous pig.

Who says shit like that?

Like, especially at a wedding speech

for someone who has no idea
who this guy is.

Thanks for a beautiful speech.

This whole thing
has been, like, a joke

and a theatrical performance.

NARRATOR: But Juliette's concerns
have been put on ice,

so Joel can introduce
a special someone

who couldn't make the wedding.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

It's Teddy!

Oh, my god. That's crazy!

What do you think about...

..a grown man having a teddy bear

or taking a teddy bear
into this experiment?

Um...

Tonight, it's just been like
the longest day of my life,

and after all of my discomfort
with today and the speeches...

Teddy, I'm fine with Teddy.
Yeah?

I would never count Teddy
as a red flag.

It's not like a big deal-breaker
for me.

But I'm definitely worried
about the other stuff.

The speeches,
yours and your mum's...

..was pretty bad, yeah.

What? My mum's speech?

Yeah.

Really?
Yeah.

How so?
The pig comment.

I wasn't a fan of that.

I think it, like, painted you
in a horrible picture.

Wow.
Yeah.

OK.
Yeah.

But that's how we speak.
It's insults or just truth.

That's very surprising.
Really?

Yeah.
OK.

I was absolutely shocked.

No one I have ever spoken to

that has interacted with my mum
like that

has ever said one single bad word
about her.

She is an angel on this earth.

She's everyone's angel.

You seem a bit concerned!

I am concerned.

Of course.
That's...

Because of what my mum
said about me?

And even the vibes that you guys
were saying.

You as well in your speech.

What?

It didn't feel, like, genuine.

Like, are you in this
for the right reason then?

Like, are you after a real, like,
deep love, emotional...

That's all that matters to me.
Relationship?

So, why wasn't that present
in the speech or the vows?

The vows were heartfelt

and more, like, deep.

You're maybe just seeing too much
of the joker,

you know, the joke maker.

Mm-hm.

I'm here to find love

and I'm here to work through it
with you,

silencing out the outside noise.

The outside noise,

I think, is literally everyone
that showed up to the wedding,

not that they, like,
said anything to me,

but you can read expressions
from everyone

and expressions are life.

I am positive and I want
to give it a shot...

OK, good.
..and I believe in giving it a shot

and being open-minded.

Let's both make a pact on that

and just have the best time ever.

Promise?
Yeah.

The thing is, like, the chemistry
between us is good.

Excited to do this with you.

Excited. I'm excited.

I'm going to trust that.

I'm going to sleep on it
and trust the experts

that this is all meant to happen
for a reason.

I think maybe tonight...

Yeah.
..we keep it classy

and we do separate beds.
Oh, sure.

For sure.

NARRATOR: As Juliette and Joel put
their first difficult conversation

and a teddy to bed...

..our other recent newlyweds,
Stephanie and Tyson,

are waking in separate rooms...

..after a tense first night
getting to know each other.

I stand firmly by my beliefs.

If the person across from me
today embraces woke culture,

we'll have a problem.

Oh, thank god.

(LAUGHTER)

NARRATOR: Although it was clear
the couple had plenty in common...

Everything he said
was really lovely.

I definitely think there was, like,
some good chemistry there.

..cracks soon appeared around
Stephanie's career-driven mindset.

I am exceptionally goal-driven
and ambitious.

Ooh.

Do you want to be house-husband?

Hell, no!

You may as well ask me if I want
to wear a skirt around the house.

I want someone that is very driven.

You're motivated, which is great.

But I don't want someone that's
going to bring masculine energy

to a relationship.

I'm very stressed.

I feel, like, my body is,
like, shutting down on me.

Yeah, look, I'm looking to lie.

I woke up this morning
having a lot of doubt.

Coming onto this experiment,

I thought you guys would match me up

with someone a little bit
more feminine,

someone that gives off
like those sweet vibes

and I'm just not feeling that
with Steph.

PRODUCER: Do you think
you've given it enough time?

I haven't, and I admit that.

I haven't given it enough time

but I don't actually look at her
as a partner or a wife right now.

Yeah, I just - I really do get
those boss bitch vibes.

We're kind of matching.

Yeah, I know.

NARRATOR: Despite some doubts
of her own,

and with their honeymoon
about to get underway...

How exciting!

..Stephanie is taking a very
different approach to the marriage.

Now that I've had time to rest
and reflect,

I think we've been matched
really well.

I'm definitely going into the
honeymoon, like, wanting to learn.

I want to learn more about Tyson.

"Dear newlyweds,
your honeymoon begins

"in the breathtaking beauty
of Shoalhaven,

"a coastal escape wear white sand
meets rolling green hills."

Shoalhaven. Do you surf?

Do I surf? No.

Alright. Well, something
we're going to have to put

on the old bucket list.

I'm going to have to teach you
how to surf.

You know how to surf?
A little bit.

I can tell he's, like,
trying to make an effort

to, like, show me that he's there
for me, be a gentleman.

That's actually really exciting.

Yay!

So, I want to put myself
out of my comfort zone.

I mean, I'm already out of it

but I want to just, like, give
everything a go.

Bring it on. I'm excited.
Sweet.

Let's go. Cool.
Let's go honeymoon.

Yeah. Just want to be open.

NARRATOR: For Stephanie, who's never
been in a serious relationship,

a romantic getaway is a huge step.

I did go away once to Caloundra
with a partner.

But that was, like,
over ten years ago.

I'm very nervous.

My stomach is doing flip-flops.

Alright, let's rock 'n' roll.

I don't know what to expect.

Going away with a partner I never
met before, I'm shitting my pants.

Do you need help? I think you do.
Yes.

Come on.

NARRATOR: After their honest
discussion last night,

Juliette and Joel are starting
their day in high spirits.

Wow!
Wow!

Holy smokes!

Last night, he showed me
that he's kind,

he showed me that he's here
for the right reasons.

It's so nice.

This is insane.
Yeah.

So, today, I'm blocking out
any concerns from yesterday

and just giving this whole situation
the benefit of the doubt.

Oh, my god!
Those are our names.

Can I... Yes.
I'll let you do the honours.

I think we smoothed things over.

But for me, it's still concerning

how she was so easily influenced
by the opinions of other people.

"You're heading north to the
sparkling shore of Gold Coast!"

Yay!

I think the honeymoon is going
to bring us closer together.

Quality time is so important

because a lot of people meet me

and they misunderstand me
straight away.

Whoo!

We did good.

So, bring on the honeymoon, baby!

(LIVELY MUSIC)

NARRATOR: Back at the apartments...

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Oh! Ooh, I'm going to get this.

Your turn.

..an unexpected the delivery
heralds the arrival

of a brand-new challenge
for our couples.

Could be a million-dollar scratchy.

(LAUGHS)

Alright, so...

"Dear Mel and Luke...

"Dear Alissa and David...

"Congratulations. This week marks
your one month anniversary.

"So, today, Daniel will get
a second wife for the day."

(LAUGHS)

That's unreal!

(LAUGHS)

"In celebration of this milestone,

"this week, we are tasking you

"with doing something
for your partner.

This may be a gift, an experience,
or a heartfelt show of affection.

In this accelerated experiment,

our couples need to form
deep connections quickly

and learning to celebrate milestones
with a show of appreciation

is an important part of that process

One month anniversary!

I know, I know. OK, alright.

JOHN: Whether it's fun, romantic,
or a meaningful gesture,

this task is a chance to acknowledge
how far they've come,

what they've learned
about each other,

and to uncover
their sincerest side.

One month, and I've aged ten years.

Imagine if we stayed together
a year,

I'd look like a 90-year-old.

What do you mean imagine?
(LAUGHS)

You're not funny.

(LIVELY MUSIC)

NARRATOR: As the couples
begin planning their activities...

75 bucks a kilo.

(BLEEP) me!

This is going to ruffle
some feathers.

..Gia and Scott are diving
straight in

with a plan to mark their
first month together...

Here we go!

..permanently.

I never would have thought
I would come into this experiment

and literally meet someone
I like enough

to get a matching tattoo with.

Now that you've started,
I'm not going to get mine.

Why are you joking about that?

I'm joking!

Is that why you agreed
for me going first?

No!

And we're getting barbed wire
heart tattoos

with the number 13 inside

for season 13,
'Married at First Sight'.

I just think it's very us.

There's no other way
of explaining our relationship

but for us to be just extra.

We've really set the stone,
haven't we?

Set the tone?

The stone, the tone.
Tone.

I think the other couples

are probably going
on little lunch dates.

Cooking for each other
in an apartment situation.

My favourite shirt!

Going on a little picnic.

No one's going to be doing
what we're doing today

and that's what I love about us.

I can't wait to go to the dinner
party with my heels on

and be like, "Hi!"

We live an exceptional life.

I love it.

Me too.

BEC: You have to eat a piece
of salami as well though.

DANNY: Yeah.

Because otherwise we'll smell
like salami.

It's the most adorable thing

that anyone's ever done for me
in my life.

Look at the Cherry Ripe.
You're so cute!

I tried pretty hard on it,
to be fair.

Like, no one has ever done this
for me in my life, ever.

No man.

Last week was a really bad week
for us, right?

We didn't have a great time.

But each time we've faced
an adversity in our relationship,

we're stronger than were before.
We come back stronger, yeah.

Yeah. Do you feel that?

Yeah, we do. Yeah.

NARRATOR: It's been a turbulent
first few weeks for Bec and Danny,

following Gia's allegation that Dann
expressed an interest in her.

Babe...

But why would I make that up?

Why the (BLEEP)
would I make that up?

Joel, what do you do,
what do you do for work?

Sorry! Modelling.

For what?
Kmart or Big W?

BEC: Last night, Gia was
really disrespectful to Joel.

You should just be happy
anyone's talking to you, mate.

Like, it's crazy.

I do feel like it's attention
seeking behaviour.

It was just like when she made up
rumours about my husband.

Gia, why are you doing that?

I don't - I just think there's
a place and a time

if you've got something to say.

You've got no decorum.

Bad energy, that's what it is.

Yeah.

Yeah, at the end of the day,
Gia is the one that has hurt me

but even in the face
of, like, adversity

and, you know, people sort of coming
for our relationship,

we've come out of it on top.

Oh, my god! You're so cute!

He has gone to such an effort.

They're so beautiful. Thank you.

Like, I'm falling in love
with him...

..and it's, like, it's great.

It's the best feeling in the world.

Oh, my god.

That means so much.

NARRATOR: The one-month milestone
also marks the very last opportunity

for a new couple to join
the experiment...

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

Five, four, three, two, one.

Let's go.

..and our final groom...

Give the clap now.

Hey!

..is 34-year-old fitness studio
owner, Sam, from Adelaide.

In Sam's search for love,

lack of interest from women
hasn't been the problem.

PRODUCER: I wouldn't pick it.

Yeah, look, I feel like as you get
to know me better,

it will - you'll start
to, like, pick up on stuff

but I'm a gay man. It's true.

(LAUGHS) The rumours are true.

So, I think I need the experts

because the dating scene
here in Adelaide is not great...

..and it's just the same dudes
over and over,

and it's just, like, pretty hard
to find someone

looking for a real connection.

How are you feeling about it all?
Getting excited?

I'm very excited.

Don't know what's going to happen
but we'll see.

I've dated and I've travelled

and done heaps in my life,
and I've opened a business,

but I feel like the one thing

that I haven't really, like,
conquered yet, obviously,

is, like, finding the person

that I want to spend
the rest of my life with.

Are you open to opening up?

I know you're picky.
Yeah.

Are you going to throw yourself
fully into the experiment?

I didn't know I was picky, Shane.

That's brand-new information to me.

I think you're picky.
Yeah.

Yeah, you are.
Yeah, cool.

Yeah, that's two.
You want to chime in?

Yeah, I agree!

Yeah, maybe I am. (LAUGHS)

Maybe I'm a little bit picky.

But I really do trust this process.

I really trust the experts as well.

Yeah, their track record with gays
on MAFS hasn't been great

but I am here, hopefully,
to change that.

At least you'll finally stop
stealing all the good-looking women

off your single mates.

You've done that about the whole
time I've known you.

Yeah, cool.
(LAUGHTER)

I am happiest outside.

So, I'm just looking for someone
who I can take out camping

and sleep by the campfire

but also can get out with the girls
and hit the dance floor and be fun.

I am Christopher. I'm 38

and I'm from the south coast
of New South Wales.

So, definitely two sides to me.

I'm a farmer and a gym owner.

I am definitely ready to share
my life with someone,

someone who's also career driven,
who's into health and fitness,

and someone who can enjoy just
a simple life on the farm with me.

It's really important for me that
my match is ready to settle down.

I want the white picket fence,
all that stuff.

My dream family set-up would be
me, my husband, two children,

you know, all of us at the farm
just enjoying our best life.

If my partner is from interstate,

I would definitely be open
to moving.

I feel like the business
is in a place

where, you know, I can leave it
and come back to it.

Like, I'm ready,
I've got itchy feet.

I'm ready to go somewhere else,

start something new.

NARRATOR: While Sam and Chris
are both ready to settle

and build a life with someone,

there is one aspect of Chris's
wish list that could prove tricky.

It's really important for me

that my match wants kids
or is open to the idea of children.

I've wanted to be a father
for so long

and as I've gotten older,

I feel like I can't wait to bring
a little human into this world.

So, it's wild, absolutely wild,

but I'm pregnant.

Not me, obviously.

(CHUCKLES)

There's two children coming.

I have one coming very soon.

And then I have another one
coming next year.

I am a donor daddy for a friend
of mine who's a lesbian.

Then I'm also having my own child
through surrogacy.

Tell me, Chris,
what's your plan going in,

in terms of revealing the kids
that are coming,

you know, into your life?

Yeah, I mean, it's a tough one.

In the dating world, I usually like
to bring it up as soon as possible

so that there's no issues.

Yeah, I like that,

and that goes to who you are,
what you see is what you get.

You're authentic.
Yes.

So, two children coming.

I know it's a lot
for my future husband.

It's obviously huge.

But yeah, I am going to make
the best dad

and I hope that my match
is willing to do the same.

As we know, Chris has already
begun his journey

to starting his own family.

Look, Chris, he's a driven guy,

and he's been nesting, waiting
for the right guy to come about.

I think that guy could be Sam.

He is such a catch.

Sam is open, accepting,

and he is now at a stage in his life

where he's looking
for that big love.

But what is interesting
with this pairing

is whether their timelines
for having a family

is going to match up.

Chris and Sam both
really crave monogamy.

I think we've got a really solid
couple here.

Compatibility just screams
off the page.

NARRATOR: The last couple
to enter the experiment

is Sam and Chris,

and soon they will marry
at first sight.

Coming up...

My rig's a lot of maintenance.
It's like a Ferrari.

You almost don't want to buy it,
it's that much maintenance.

You know what I mean?
Oh, my good god.

NARRATOR: Tyson's lunch topics...

..fail to impress wife, Stephanie.

It's not always what you say,
it's about how you say it.

NARRATOR: And Julia speaks
her truth...

"What a wild ride this has been
thus far."

..in an unforgettable
monthly milestone gesture.

What...

What is this?

NARRATOR: It's the morning
of Sam and Chris's wedding...

..and the first of our grooms, Chris

has awoken with pre-wedding nerves.

CHRIS: This is definitely not
how I imagined my wedding day.

I always thought I would get married
at my farm

to someone that I know

but monogamy in the gay community
is very tough to find

and that's why a lot of my dates
haven't worked.

I'd love to have a husband
and the white picket fence,

family, and it's really important
for my future kids too.

So, if this experiment didn't work,

obviously, it's going to be
devastating.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Hey!

How are you guys?

NARRATOR: Chris's sister, Becky,
and mum, Veronica...

Hi, Mum. How are you going?

..have travelled from Townsville
in northern Queensland

to support him on his big day.

Can you believe I'm getting married?

I cannot believe it.
It's happening today.

Mum and my sister, Becky,
we're super close.

I didn't sleep much last night.

Didn't you?

Mum's just a queen.
Just excited.

When we were little,
my parents divorced

and she raised us on her own.

We have been through
so much together.

I love them so much.

So, what do you think
he's going to look like?

Um, I don't know.

I hope - I just hope that he's kind.

Yeah, Chris just wants to be loved.

Yeah.
He wants someone

that's going to love him
unconditionally.

You're so ready for this.

I'm so ready.
So ready to start your next chapter.

Yeah.

He is about to become a father,
so that's very important.

So, this... That's me.

It's probably the biggest day
of his life today

and I just want to see him happy.

Thanks for supporting me.
Thank you so much, Mum.

I love you so much.
Thank you for coming.

I'm proud of you.
I appreciate it.

I wouldn't be anywhere else.

NARRATOR: Groom, Sam,
is starting his morning,

thinking about loved ones too.

SAM: Yeah, family is incredibly
important to me.

I wish my parents
could be here today.

NARRATOR: Sam's mum and dad
are away

touring in remote bushland...
(LINE RINGING)

..and are unable to attend
today's wedding.

Hello!

Hello. How are we?

Do you like the suit?

Oh, thanks, Mum. (LAUGHS)
Very good.

Yeah, we've just been getting ready

and yeah, then the day begins.

Meet my husband.

Yes! (LAUGHS)

Hope he's cool.
Hope he gets along with you guys.

That's very important to me.

I know you'd love to be here.

Yes, I know. Yep.

Oh, thanks, Mum!

Good.
There goes Mum.

(LAUGHS)

Knew that was going to happen.

Alright. Love you both. Bye.
OK.

Oh...

Yeah, I wish they were here.

Um...

I'm just, yeah, I'm so lucky
to have such supportive parents.

They're so cool.

And I just - yeah.

Not everyone has that support
from their parents

and it makes me...

Yeah, just so grateful.

(HOPEFUL MUSIC)

Wow!

(MUSIC BUILDING)

Beautiful.

Oh, this is so nice.

It's stunning.

Oh, here come the others.

Hi.

Hello. How are you going?
Hi!

Exciting! Nerve-wracking!

So, this is Mum, Veronica,
and I'm his sister, and best mate.

Oh, how good!

We're all best mates.

Oh, lovely!
Yeah!

Yep, yep. Yeah.

What's his name?
Yeah, what's his name?

Chris.

We've got a Sam.
We've got a Sam.

Sam!
Sam?

Yes!
Sam.

Does he like animals?
Loves them.

Loves them,
he loves animals.

Excellent.
Amazing.

I'm excited.

Sounding good.
Yeah.

I just hope that their values align.

That's obviously the ideal outcome.

Is Chris outgoing? Is he quiet?

Very outgoing.

Oh!

When we got to talk to Chris's
family members a little bit,

I feel like there was a bit of a
mirror kind of thing going on there.

Very similar.

It's going to be a good day.

I'd like a drink actually.

And I can have a drink
after this, right?

Is Chris outdoorsy?

He is, yes.
Oh, yes.

OK.
Very outdoorsy.

(CORK POPS)

Sam runs a fitness studio, so...

Oh!
Oh, stop.

So does Chris.

Really?
(LAUGHTER)

(CORK POPS)

They sound very similar already.

I never drink by myself normally.

This is weird for me to do.

I'm just going to have
a tiny, tiny little bit.

It looks like they have
a lot in common.

Oh, I'm so excited now.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Oh, here he is! Whoo!

Hunky spunk!

Oh, look at him!

How are you doing?

Hello, mate. How are you?
Good. Sam. Nice to meet you.

Very nice to meet you.

Hi. Bec.
Nice to meet you, Bec.

Lovely to meet you.
How are you doing?

Sam. Nice to meet you.

He's tall, good. (LAUGHS)

Where am I meant to stand?

This side maybe.
That side, I think.

Here, with you guys.

(LAUGHTER)

He's got such a kind face,
very handsome as well,

so we're happy.
Yeah, we're happy.

How are you feeling?
Yeah, I feel good.

Lovely.

But yeah, this is the most stressful
part right now, I guess.

We've done some intel, Sam.
It's all looking...

Yeah, we think you're in good hands.

There you go.

CHRIS: I have been wanted
to get married for so long now.

And yes, I have dreamt
of this day for a very long time.

I'm just worried if we're going
to like each other,

if he's going to like me
and if I'm going to like him.

If we have anything in common.

And obviously, that initial spark
and that initial click.

I'm hoping for someone kind,

someone to do life with.

Someone to start a family with.

Oh, here he comes.

Oh! Oh, he's handsome.

Hi!
Hello. How are you doing?

Good. How are you?
Very good.

Nice to meet you.
I'm Chris. Lovely to meet you.

Sam. What's going on?

Nice to meet you.

Thanks for showing up.
Yeah, you too.

(LAUGHTER)

You look handsome.
You too.

A big huge wow.

Yeah, you look great.

Yeah, thank you. (LAUGHS)

He has a really kind face,
he's got beautiful eyes,

great energy and is super handsome.

Did you meet my mum and that?
Yeah, I just met them all before.

Yeah? Cute.

Yes.
Do you approve?

(LAUGHTER)
Tick.

Great.
(LAUGHTER)

I think there's a spark, for sure.

I'm really obsessed with his eyes.

Their, like, really blue.
They were just like striking.

Yeah, he's really handsome.

Here we go.
Let's do it.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm going to try not to cry.

Good afternoon and a heartfelt
welcome to everyone gathered here

as we witness the joining
of Chris and Sam in marriage.

In the presence of those who love
and support you,

I now invite you to share your vows.

I've got a tissue if you cry.

Sorry, I can't actually see.
That's OK.

I'm seeing you
for the first time now.

(LAUGHTER)

Hope you like it.
I do, I do.

(LAUGHTER)

It's good. I'm happy.

When he put his glasses on,
I felt like crumbling to my feet.

He's so handsome and it was so cute

and yeah, he's a vibe. I loved it.

Chris, it's nice
to finally meet you.

I'm a fitness trainer by trade

and I own my own successful
fitness studio in Adelaide.

When I'm not yelling over music
at clients,

I am normally outside camping.

There's something about being
out in nature

that makes me feel whole.

Wow.

Sure, I have mates that could come

but they're not so keen on a cuddle
in the swag by the fire.

So, I hope this is something
you'd be into.

Nothing beats a fire
under the stars of a night.

That's the way to my heart.

That's great!

I know I'm pretty dressed up today

but I'm usually knee-deep
in mud and cow shit.

I hope you like the great outdoors

because if you haven't guessed,
I'm a farmer.

Whilst the farm is my happy place,

I do also have an apartment
in the city that I bounce between.

In the city, I run a very successful
PT business.

Are they my vows?

I know, right! I know!

Finding love in Adelaide
has been tough.

I feel like I've stayed in Adelaide
for a long time

to put my career first,
but now, I want to focus on this.

For a long time, I have thrown
myself into my career,

but now, I'm at a stage in my life
where I'm ready to put love first,

so I'm just hoping that you and I

can reignite my passion for love
and romance.

I'm a bit of a romantic,

whether it's planning a date,
booking a spontaneous trip,

or just bringing you a coffee
in bed.

Oh, stop it!
Those moments matter to me

because they're how I show love.

Wow! (LAUGHS)

I'm ready to enjoy coffees on
the verandah, sunsets at the farm,

and all the little ordinary moments
that turn into something special

because I still want
my happily ever after

and I really hope it's with you.

Here's to hopefully being
happily ever after.

Yours, Sam.

That was amazing.
Thank you so much.

That was so good.

(APPLAUSE)

We have very similar interests.

Same, same.

We seem to really align.

Like, we almost said
the same things.

With this ring...
With this ring...

I offer you my heart...
I offer you my heart...

And my everlasting devotion.

Yeah, I'm very happy.

You know, I was just,
like, picturing,

like, a possible life together

and I was, like, yeah,
I can see this.

With the blessings
of everyone present,

it is my joy to declare
Chris and Sam as husbands!

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)
There we go!

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

Thank you. You did amazing.

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

I'm so happy to be married.

I can't believe I've got a husband.

The only thing is,

I'm not sure, like, where he stands
on family and children

and how important that is to him.

Let's go.

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

If he doesn't want kids,
that would be devastating.

We did it!

Oh, god.

(LIVELY MUSIC)

My name is Joel and this is
my beautiful wife...

Juliette.
..Juliette.

This is so nice!
Wow, this is beautiful.

How lovely!

NARRATOR: Our recent newlyweds

are arriving at their honeymoon
destinations.

Wow!

"Welcome to the island. We hope
you enjoy your stay with us.

"Here is $1,000 comped
on the bar tab."

It did not say that.

We're in the Gold Coast!
How exciting!

The more I'm getting to know Joel,

I'm realising that he really is
extremely charismatic.

This is just like our connection.

The fizz is still fizzing.

So, I'm excited to be with someone
like that.

Cheers.
So happy to be here with you.

Thanks. I'm happy to be here
with you too.

But it's not the type of vibe

where I've wanted to, like,

obviously, like, jump his bones
right now.

But I'm very comfortable sleeping
in the bed with you tonight.

But I guess I just want to, like,
take it slow in the intimacy part.

You know, when it comes
to the bedroom,

you're the boss.

Yeah.
You're in charge

and you set the rules.
OK, good.

Trust before lust.

Trust before lust.
A pact?

Yes.
Trust before lust.

I... Like, I feel safe with you.

I feel very comfortable and safe
with you,

and that's why I feel also
comfortable not rushing into it.

I have no expectation of intimacy

and I think we're both
very aligned on that,

that she wants to take it slow,
I want to take it slow,

so there's no problems with that.

But the bed is going to be
a little cramped

because I'm bringing along
my little friend,

the good old teddy.

You know Teddy's going to be
sleeping with us every night?

And we come as a package.

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

We all need to give a big cheers
and a welcome

to the new husbands,

so raise a glass and welcome
to the new husbands!

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

Welcome!

How are you?

Good!

Yeah, the ceremony was really good.

Cheers!

Oh, cheers, guys!

So, at the moment, I'm feeling very
encouraged by the whole situation.

When I was talking to Sammy

about what kind of person
are you looking for,

I think we even joked about,
like, a farmer, which is crazy.

Thank you.

Someone who values their health
and fitness as well,

so another box ticked.

Yeah, so many values align.

Yeah, how old are you?

34.
OK. I'm 38.

Yeah.
38. Yeah.

Yeah, dating an older man, OK.

(LAUGHTER)

First time, actually.
Right. OK.

Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, right. OK.

You have to show me the ropes.
Yeah, right.

(LAUGHS)

I fancy Sam a lot.

The experts have done so well.

I can totally picture him
at the farm

with his cute glasses on,

reading the paper.

And I don't even need
to speak with my mum.

She is in love with him already.
I can tell.

How long have you had the farm for?

The first farm I bought in 2019

and the one that I'm in now,
I've had that for two years.

Right.
Yeah.

And like just hearing about, like,

you starting your PT business
and then buying a farm...

Yeah.
..I'm like, this guy's like me

but a few years ahead. Like...

Yeah, and there's a lot more
you don't know yet either.

Oh, yeah? There's more?
There's a lot more, yeah.

It's good news?
Great news.

OK, good.
Yeah.

A thousand percent trying to subtly
hint where Sam's at with family.

But yeah, I'm pretty old school.

My mother has raised me
to be very old school

and, you know, I want
a white picket fence, children.

You know, two dogs running around,

like someone to come home to,
someone who's your teammate.

You know, family.

But he's so hard to read.

So, I want him
to get to know me first

just a little bit

and then I'm going to tell him
about the children.

It's funny, when you said,
like old school values,

like, when I think of that, I just
think of like a man and a woman.

I was like, I think we're
in the wrong place.

(LAUGHTER)

NARRATOR: As Chris delays
revealing his baby news...

..in Shoalhaven, Stephanie and Tyson

are bonding over a shared worldview.

There seems to be a lot of hatred
out there.

Yeah.
The world needs a lot of healing.

I guess why there's a lot
of single people out there.

I couldn't agree more with you.

I think a lot of that comes down
to social media as well.

They're constantly
comparing themselves

and, you know, everyone
is under the impression

the grass is always greener.

Yeah.
Um, so...

The grass is green
where you water it.

That's a good one.

So, what do you want
to do this evening?

I might go for a bit of a beach walk

or maybe hit the gym
or something like that.

Just to sort of clear the mind.

And also, my rig's
a lot of maintenance.

It's like a Ferrari.

Like, you almost don't want
to buy it,

it's that much maintenance,
you know what I mean?

Oh, my good god.
But um...

Listen to him.

He's approach to conversations
is interesting.

Thank you so much.

He's got a very high opinion
of himself.

He does not hold back.

Does it shock you
that you are single?

Well, with me, Steph,

I'm very fussy with who I bring
into my life

and I do, I really feel like
I bring a lot to the table.

I've seen people,

I say, geez, that person has,
like, a girlfriend or a boyfriend,

whatever, and you're like, geez,

like, there really is someone
out there for everyone. Like...

Wait, what? Sorry. Go back to that.
What do you mean?

I'm just saying, like,
sometimes, like,

you might see someone who's...

I don't know.

Someone who you wouldn't think
might get a girlfriend

with a girlfriend.
Why?

Oh, well, why? Um...

Could be a lot of different reasons
there, Steph.

Use the imagination.

It's not always what you say,
it's about how you say it.

"Here's the thing, Steph."

"Well, this is how it is, Steph."

"And dah, dah, dah, Steph."

One thing's for sure, Steph,
you just demolished that.

Hmm.

Like, what of it, mate?

I just think it's typical of him

to comment on people's appearance

and what they eat and what they do.

I think he's very judgemental.

Dang, you can eat.

NARRATOR: But before Tyson
can continue his commentary

on Stephanie's eating habits,

the honeymoon box is served.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

Well, I'm a little bit disappointed
there's no chocolate.

But I'll read it. (CLEARS THROAT)

"What is one important thing
I should know about you?"

Do you have one?

I've got one.
Do you want me to start?

You start.
Yeah.

I can't think.

So, with me, I take care of myself
and I take care of my possessions.

So, my house is like a prize home.

Some people have even said,
"You've got OCD."

I said, "I probably do."

But I don't look at it that way.

I just look at it as a good trait
in myself to have.

I think it's - I like it.

It's funny though.
You leave the toilet seat up.

Do I?
Yeah. It's gross.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

Alright. Well, next question.

"So, tell me about
your relationship history."

Oh, well, yeah. You know mine.
I don't have one.

What about you?

For me, recently, I was in
somewhat of a relationship.

And beautiful girl,

but unfortunately, she told me
her body count history,

like, how many guys
she's slept with,

and I think it was like 78
or something crazy.

I had to escort her
out of the house 'cause...

What? Did you really?
Yeah, I sort of

don't want to get HIV here.

Oh, god, Tyson.

Well, it's too many for me.

Like, that's a lot of tallywhackers,
quite frankly.

Um...

I think my ideal body count
for a female would be zero, really.

You know, I'm not asking
for a virgin

'cause I don't - you know,
that's nearly impossible, right?

But yeah, having a person
with a high body count,

it's actually pretty dirty.

Do you think if a girl said
she'd slept with 80 guys

and a guy said that he had slept
with 80 girls,

do think that's different?

A little bit.

I think a woman can control
her urges better than a guy.

A guy is high testosterone.

You know, we're hunters,
we're out there hunting,

we're mating, you know,
we're doing what we got to do.

She should have more self-control.

She's not full of testosterone.

You guys should have
more self-control.

I just feel like, as well,

if a woman has
a high body count,

chances are she's got
daddy issues too.

Wow!

NARRATOR: Coming up...

Are you making judgements of me
based on that number?

A little bit of a problem. Hmm.

..Stephanie's body count
challenges Tyson.

I haven't had sex in three years.

Well, credit to you.

I'm almost tempted to give you
a high-five, quite frankly.

NARRATOR: And later...

How are you feeling?

Good. Big day.

NARRATOR: Will Chris bite the bullet
with his baby news?

I don't know how he's going
to react.

It's a huge risk but I'm going
to have to do it.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

Let's bring on the next one.

Oh, there we go. "How many
sexual partners have you had?"

(CHUCKLES) Um...

I don't know, 20 to 30.

It's not that many, I don't think.

But that number
could be a lot higher.

Don't get me wrong.

But how many, so yeah, how many
partners do you have, Steph?

Oh, you make me laugh.

I think I've had about 20.

About 20, OK.

How does that make you feel?

And obviously, these are
all partners that...

You weren't in a relationship
with any of these people, were you?

No.
About 20, OK.

Are you making judgements of me
based on that number?

A little bit of a problem. Hmm.

What is the problem?

Tell me what the problem is.

I think the problem is that you've
never been in a relationship before

yet you've slept with 20 guys,
that's the problem.

The problem, to me,
is, like, you enjoy lust

over actually finding that soulmate.

But I've never found that soulmate.

Yeah, I know.
And a lot of it was, like,

in my early 20s.

I mean, we all went
and partied then.

Hmm.

You know, he's slept
with more people than I have,

yet my number was too high.

I bit my tongue

for the sake of maintaining
a civil conversation today.

I haven't had sex in three years.

Well, credit to you.

I'm almost tempted to give you
a high-five, quite frankly.

But I just love watching
him judge me...

..because it says so much about him.

(LIVELY MUSIC)

NARRATOR: The sun has set
on Sam and Chris's wedding,

and the formalities
are out of the way.

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

But with the weight of his baby news
still hanging in the air,

Chris has pulled Sam aside
for a private chat.

How are you feeling?

Good. Big day.

Look, it's going to be hard.

I'm not sure it's the right time.

It's a huge risk but we're
moving in together tonight.

I'm going to have to do it.

Are you scared about anything,
moving forward? Or are you like...

I don't think so. No.
No?

And how do you feel
about the age thing?

Like, does that bother you?

Ah, I don't think it bothers me.

It's just something for me
to, like, think about

that I've thought about before

because I've only dated
younger people.

Yep.
And then dating someone a bit older

is, like, OK, am I fast-forwarding,

like, you know...
OK, gotcha.

..like, kids and all those things
that I do want in my life.

Are they going to happen,
like, sooner now?

Right. Yeah, and is that a problem?

I don't know if it's a problem.
Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, it could be.

Right.
It depends how quickly,

like, that stuff sort of has
to happen for you...

Right, OK.
But I think,

you know, even like...
Like, give me some examples.

Oh, like, I mean,
if you wanted kids next year,

I don't think that
would be something

that I would be ready for just yet.

Right.

Um... Yeah, it's a little bit
disheartening.

It's a little bit sad, to be honest.

And so, is that a deal-breaker?
Or what's like...

It so hard to say.

Like, you know...

But that's OK.
We can still work with it.

That just solidified that it's not
the right time to tell him.

I'm just going to get to know him
a little bit better,

go on the honeymoon,

and that I'm going to pop
the kids in there.

I'll just do a little soft...

I'll do it softly. Yeah.

Right now, in my current situation,
in my current life,

kids next year is not something
that I would see.

But also, one of the children
isn't coming next year,

it's coming in a couple of months.

NARRATOR: The original couples
are now in full swing

with their monthly milestone tasks..

..making an array of playful...

Oh, my god.
I might be good at this game!

..meaningful...

Thank you.

..and romantic gestures
of appreciation for one another.

Surprised he hasn't told me.
She doesn't know where she's going.

Oh, my god! Babes! Stop!

NARRATOR: For Julia and Grayson,
the opportunity to celebrate

has come at a pivotal time.

How are you?
Good. How are you?

Yeah, I'm OK.
Yeah?

How are you feeling?
Yeah, good.

Yeah?
Yeah.

Hi!

NARRATOR: Despite an initial spark..

What's your name?
I'm Grayson.

Grayson!
What's your name?

Julia.

This is a very interesting way
to wake up.

NARRATOR: Finding ways
to connect physically

was a struggle for Julia and Grayson

And even stretching.

I'd like to see it progress
into a more romantic relationship.

It sounds to me like, Julia,
you set the pace

and Grayson, then you said,
"Oh, well, OK."

I feel powerless over my position
in this relationship.

NARRATOR: As Grayson struggled
to make his voice heard...

This doesn't need to be a big deal.

No, it is a big deal

because this is something I -
that's important to me.

..Julia's ultimate fantasy night
was a reminder

he was stuck firmly
in the friend zone.

"What's the greatest moment
you've had on the footy field?"

Those questions were a bit
of a cop-out, to be honest.

"At school, were you bullied?"

It's intimacy week.

This is designed to help you

move into the next stage
of your relationship.

Big smile on your face.

NARRATOR: Today, despite
a turbulent few weeks...

"Dear Gray..."

..Julia has chosen to mark
the one-month milestone

with a heartfelt letter.

"What a wild ride
this has been thus far.

"It feels like I've known you
for years

"and it's only been a month."

Grayson and I,
we've been a bit up and down.

But writing letters is definitely
a love language of mine.

"I chose to participate
in this experiment

"to find a deep soul connection
with someone."

I connect through words

and so, having something to read
to him feels authentic.

"We have grown so much
separately and together.

"I have seen you lean in

"and I have, too,
with everything we have."

When Jules does
nice things like this,

I get those little, you know,
those little butterflies

and I get excited and I'm like,
"Well, this is great.

"Let's build on this, let's go."

"However, that burning desire
we have both spoken about...

"..doesn't seem to be growing.

"Our moments of true connection
have been fleeting.

"Despite us making progress
in many ways...

"..at this stage, a flame of mutual
chemistry hasn't been ignited

"and I don't want to
force anything."

What... What is this?

"I need to choose myself.
I must listen to my intuition."

I just feel really confused,
to be honest.

Um...

I actually thought we were making
some progress in our relationship.

(SIGHS)

GRAYSON: (SIGHS) Um...

Thanks for...

..being open...

..and yeah, for taking the time
to write that.

I just really am hurt.

I'm sad.

I came here to fall in love
with someone...

..and it hasn't, you know...

It's just...

I, yeah, I feel like...

I just don't think that the effort's
been met.

Help me understand why this hasn't
worked for us.

Relationships and connecting
are incredibly personal and nuanced.

I don't really - I just don't -

that burning desire that
we keep discussing

just isn't there for me.

I knew that a conversation
was necessary

at this point in the experiment.

For me, I think, that romantic side
wasn't really being progressed

and it really sort of sunk in

that this is probably not
my forever person.

I'm...
Tell me,

have you put your heart and soul
into this experiment?

I have, and I'm letting you know

that I am not feeling like this
is something that I...

..that is right for me.

Yeah, and that's fine.

That's fine if it's not right.

But can you walk away
from the experiment,

saying, "I gave my absolute
everything to this?"

Yes.
Really?

Yeah.

I'm the one that's made
this place here a home,

I've showed up for you
and been your support,

I've been your safe place

and I know that I've supported you
through all your needs.

Not true.
I bring you a coffee home

every morning.
Yes, it is true, Julia.

It is. I'm just - just take
some responsibility.

You've been here,
but you haven't been.

I...
You haven't been here.

I disagree.

For me, it hasn't progressed
and I don't want to waste your time.

That's it.
Well, you have.

You've wasted my time.

You've wasted my time since...

I reckon you probably wasted my time
since the honeymoon

because you've tippy-toed
around this whole thing.

Oh, Gray.

I'm so disappointed.

I care about her a lot, I really do.

Yeah, it's...

Like, it's... It's hard.

(EMOTIVE MUSIC)

Um...

Ah...

I was really hopeful...

..and unfortunately,
it hasn't worked out for me.

NARRATOR: As a devastated Grayson
grapples with Julia's revelation...

(LIVELY MUSIC)

..the final couple of the experiment
Sam and Chris,

are waking to their first morning
as husbands.

Do you like your ring?
I do like it a lot, actually.

Are you still glad that you did it?

Oh, yeah. I'm pumped to be here.
Yeah, great. Yeah, awesome.

We did share a kiss,

just another little peck
before we went to sleep.

Yeah, I love this for us.
Yeah.

I think it's nice.

Like, I want to show Chris
that I do like him

but, like, I really do want
to get to know him

before I'm intimate with him.

NARRATOR: But intimacy is the least
of Chris's concerns

as excitement
for their honeymoon builds.

You can open it.

NARRATOR: He's still processing Sam'
revelation from last night's wedding

"Newlyweds, yesterday,
you took a leap of faith

"in the hope of forever.

"Today, you embark on the journey
of connecting at a deeper level.

"It's time to leave
the whirlwind behind...

(SAM'S VOICE FADES)
"..and disappear into the quiet

"beauty of the Central Coast."

Last night, my head was spinning
when I got home.

He said that he wouldn't be ready
to have kids next year.

One of my kids are coming this year.

Like, quite soon.

"Nestled between forest
and the hills and serene waterways,

"you'll explore hidden beaches
and experience the joy

"of simply being..."

It's really emotional for me
because it's just...

Sorry.

I just feel like it's...

You know, it's such a big part
of my life

and, obviously, he needs to know.

"Your honeymoon retreat
awaits at Tumbi Umbi."

Cool.
Is that north or south?

North, yeah.

Maybe a little bit warmer.

I feel like I might tell him
on the honeymoon.

No, I really don't know where I...

Yeah, I'm not sure
when I'm going to tell him.

NARRATOR: Coming up...

Sounds like a you problem
not a me problem.

NARRATOR: Stephanie
holds her ground.

Well, it's a you problem
'cause it won't work out.

You're missing out on all this.

Wow!

Someone ordered a French maid
to clean this place up?

(LAUGHS)

NARRATOR: Our original couples

are embracing their monthly
milestone tasks...

Watch how romantically
I can clean this bowl.

..and finding all sorts
of new levels of intimacy.

Come on, keep going!

(LAUGHS) Come on, faster!

I'm slipping!
(LAUGHS)

How are you?

Good!
Good?

Yeah. Hi!

How are you? Come in!

NARRATOR: As well as finding
fun and meaningful ways

to celebrate their husbands...

I'm thirsty and I'm hungry.
Thirsty and hungry?

And I'm keen for a chat.

..Mel, Rachel, and Stella

are making time to support
each other as well.

To the girls!
Cheers.

Cheers to the girlies!
Cheers, cheers.

I asked the girls to come over with
lunch and wine to share date ideas.

Have you done any active dates?

I recommended going
to the smash room

but he didn't want to go because...
Go to bowling.

Bowling is such a cool, fun game.

Yeah.

Go go-karting.

We've all been married for a month.

I know, I think we'd be lying

if we said it was like a bed
of roses.

It's been a rollercoaster.
(LAUGHS) It's been a bloody ride.

It feels good to be able to share
with the girls where we're at.

That's what we're here for.

We are here to be supportive.

I am team Mel and Luke.

We're here for it,
I've got my pom-poms out.

NARRATOR: As our original couples

reflect on an intense first month
of marriage,

on the Gold Coast, Juliette and Joel

are still getting to grips
with the very basics.

Can I just say that you have
nice toes.

Oh! Thank you!

I think that's an important feature.

Yeah, I actually get a lot
of comments on my feet.

Yeah.
Should I sell my feet

for feet pics?

Oh, my god. Please don't.
I'll buy them.

She has sexy features.
Simple as that.

Especially, the toes.
I like nice feet.

Shall we do a little bomb?
Sexy 'kini!

Nice feet, tick. Nice tush, tick.

Tick, tick, tick!

Sexy 'kini!

Who is she?

Oh, my god! It is way too cold!

I'm definitely liking Joel the more
the day goes on.

Like, I think, like, the connection
we've got is, like, building up.

I think we're really kind of
like able

to, like, read each other's vibes
and adjust.

It's a day seven of our honeymoon.

Day seven of our honeymoon?

Still in love.

(LAUGHS)

I feel safe with him

and I feel happy with him

and he makes me feel giddy and sexy.

I can feel the beginnings of, like,
the good foundation blocks

starting in a relationship.

OK, well, so far...

(BORAT IMPRESSION)
Great success, yes!

Where's your mankini?

(BORAT IMPRESSION)
I like you people!

It was nice. I felt the bond.

It's good. Good vibes.

I haven't had sex in a long time,

so obviously, you know,
can get a bit excited

with even the sight of a woman,

let alone the touch and the feel
up close, so...

(SQUEALS)
Oh, there you go.

I had to delay my exit
out of the pool, let's say.

(LAUGHS)

Read between those lines!

NARRATOR: As things heat up
on the Gold Coast,

in Shoalhaven,
Stefanie and Tyson's relationship

is getting frostier by the minute,
following a tense honeymoon box.

Pretty bad weather, hey?

How are you feeling?

How am I feeling?

Um...
Yeah.

I'm still feeling just a little bit
out of place.

Um, so what I'm going to do

is I'm just going to go to the gym
for a couple of hours.

There are many other places
I'd rather be right now,

if I'm being honest with you.

Just to clear my head.

So, I'm going to go to the gym now
just for a couple of hours.

Just to get away from Steph.

It would be good for you
just to clear your head

and just to think about things
and ponder

and just to see, like, yeah,
where we're at with everything.

Is it the situation or is it me?
Or is it both?

Um, I'd probably say it's you.

Me?
Yeah.

Well, the situation as well.

Like, it's everything.

It's everything all at once. Like...

So, what about me is it?

Well, I think obviously,
we've got dominant personalities.

Yeah. So, I think...
Yeah, see, look,

I'm just going to stop you there.

This is where I find you to be
a bit of a walking contradiction,

to be honest...
OK.

Hmm. How so?
..because...

Because you say you want someone
who's driven and ambitious,

and blah, blah, blah,
but then you're also saying,

"I want, like, a stay-at-home mum
that's going to, you know..."

It just doesn't make sense to me.
Like, I just...

Like, I don't think you actually
know what you really want.

I do. I do know what I want.

I do want a stay-at-home mum

and she can have a side hustle,
that's great.

But like the boys said,
I'm the provider, I'm the protector.

OK.

Hmm.
Interesting.

So...

I know exactly what I want
in my wife.

Someone that's submissive,

someone that's not going to say,
"Would you be a house-husband?"

Um, once again, that gives off...

It's sort of - it's emasculating
towards me.

I'm not a maid, you know,
I'm not doing that.

So, what I'm going to do is
I'm going to go to the gym.

Yeah, I think it's a good idea.
I just want to clear my head,

and you can stay here,
do what you want.

Cool.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

She's a very driven girl

and look, that's great,
and I do want a driven girl, but...

I don't know, she brings,
like, this dominance thing

to the relationship

and I want to be the one
essentially calling the shots.

If she's going to bring that
as well,

we're definitely going to clash.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

Don't get me wrong, Steph.

Like, I think it's great that you're
a businesswoman and all.

But you just come across
in a relationship very masculine.

Well, that's your perception.
When masculine energy...

Well, when masculine energy
comes to a relationship,

that's just the problem
and sometimes I feel that with you.

I feel like it makes you
feel emasculated...

Emasculated? No, no.
..Tyson. Yeah.

I definitely do.
No, I think it's just you bring

masculine energy to the
relationship, that's what I think.

Hmm.
Hmm.

Sounds like a you problem
not a me problem.

Well, it's a you problem
'cause it won't work out.

And you're missing out
on all this, so...

It's a you problem,
not me, sweetheart.

Anyway.
Wow!

My blood is boiling.

I don't know who he thinks
he's, like, talking to.

He's just - I think he's
a bloody immature child,

to be honest.

(GRAND MUSIC)

Hi. How are you?

Good afternoon, Chris and Sam.

Welcome and congratulations.

NARRATOR: The last of our recent
newlyweds, Sam and Chris,

have arrived at their honeymoon
in Central Coast's Tumbi Umbi.

Champagne!

Robe, yeah, I'm going to get
into that.

Good bed?
It's big enough for both of us.

This is good.
Just.

Perfect. (LAUGHS)

NARRATOR: With no time to waste,

the couple has settled into
a lazy afternoon at the hotel...

Booyah!

..and their very first task
of the experiment.

What's this?

Damn it.

It looks like the honeymoon box.

"Honesty is key here."

And I'm sure there's going to be
a question about kids.

OK.

OK. "What does your perfect future
look like to you?"

Um, somewhere in the country, like,
if we're looking in the distance.

Um...

Lots of animals,
hopefully raising a family.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Yeah.

"What does your perfect future
look like?"

I feel like I'm pretty close to it.

I always wanted a farm,
I wanted to live on the land,

I wanted to have lots of open space.

Obviously, I want to build a family,

there's no questions about it.

That's what my perfect future
looks like.

I'm pretty close to it.

I'm just missing, yeah, that person
to share it with.

You're definitely close.
You've got so much going for you.

So close!
You're like doing it, man!

Now, alright.
Yeah.

Do you want the next one?
Ah, yeah.

(LAUGHS) OK.

Um... "What is one important thing
I should know about you?"

(BLEEP) (BLEEP) (BLEEP)

This is such a full-on question.

Um...

You should know that my independence
is, like, super important to me.

Yeah.

I'm glad that he answered it first

because what am I going to say?

Yeah.

I don't want to lose myself
to someone.

I want to keep a being who I am...

Yeah.
..and have someone else

who, like, complements...
For sure.

..my life.
Yeah.

"What is one important thing
I should know about you, Chris?"

Um...

Yeah...

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

There is something
that I want to tell you.

Um...

But I'm not going to answer
that question just yet.

I feel like I want to get to know
you a little bit better.

I still feel like it's not
the right time to tell him.

Yeah.
I just want to get a bit further in.

Yeah.

I just feel like it wouldn't give -
it wouldn't be respectful for...

It wouldn't be respectful
for myself,

it wouldn't be respectful
for the children.

I just - I don't know.
I just - some, you know,

some situations with friends
and family members, it seems right.

This just doesn't seem right
to tell him just yet.

I will just tell you
that, yeah, you know,

I have had a lot of heartbreak
and failed relationships,

and I just want to do
the right thing.

Yeah, I get that.
Yeah.

I don't feel any, like, rush

or insecurities around
each other holding something.

Can I hold your hand
and say something?

I feel like there's every chance
this could work out,

there's so many reasons it could.

I'm having a great time...
Yeah.

..and I hope you can see that.

Yeah.
Like, we get along.

Yeah.

It's his news.

He will share it.

We'll get there when we get there.

It's kind of nice

'cause I feel like it maybe shows

the secure position that Chris
is putting me in as a partner.

Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.

He'll... He'll open up
when he's ready.

Thank you.

NARRATOR: As Chris delays
his baby news once again...

..in Shoalhaven, Tyson has returned

to wife, Stephanie, at the villa...
(KEYPAD BEEPING)

..to apologise
for their earlier disagreement.

Hey, Steph.
Hey!

How did you go?
You right to talk for a sec?

Hey?
You right to have a bit of a chat?

Yeah.
Alright, cool.

I've been thinking about it,

you know, in my mind.

I shouldn't have made a smart-arse
remark to you before.

I just got caught up in my own head

and, yeah, it was a bit sort of
immature on my behalf.

So, what I'd like to do
is just start fresh, start again,

and maybe we can stop for now
talking about, you know,

what you bring to the table,
what I bring to the table,

and just try and enjoy
this honeymoon, at least,

because I feel like, you know,
talking about,

you know, masculine energy,
feminine energy,

all this sort of stuff,

I think it's just going to cause
more conflict.

Yeah, I mean, it's -

that's something that you continue
to bring up though.

I'm not talking about that.
Yeah, well, OK, whatever.

But anyway,
what I'm trying to say is

I'd just like to start fresh

and I think, as well,
it would be good

to potentially get a separate room.

Yeah, I mean, unless you're prepared
to sleep on the couch,

I couldn't agree more.

Yeah. Well, you could also sleep
on the couch too.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

But whatever that may be...

Can I... I'm just going
to stop you there. Like...

You like to say that you, you know,
you like to be the gentleman

and, you know, provide for a woman,

yet you wouldn't be prepared
to, like, offer me, like, the bed

and you're saying, "Well, you could
sleep on the couch too."

Well, it's just you come across
with an attitude,

like, "Oh, you know,
I'm taking the bed,

"like, you're having the couch."

Well, yeah.
Like, once again,

masculine energy.
Very demanding. Um...

I could say the same about you,
Tyson.

It's not masculine at all to call
someone out on their behaviour.

Just the way that you speak to me

and come in and like
direct conversation.

Yeah, he comes in,
he controls the room,

he says how it's going to be.

I just think he wants someone

that he can just tell what to do
all the time,

and, I'm sorry,
it's not happening, buddy.

Like...

Let's just move on from that.

I mean, it's just going to come up
again, isn't it?

Well, but that's, but that's...
'Cause you can't get off the topic

of masculine energy.
OK.

Well, that is true,

but the thing is,
I'd rather just start fresh.

I'd rather not
bring that up anymore.

So, I'm not going to bring it up.

If you don't bring it up,
I won't bring it up.

I've never brought it up.

But also, I think, like,
you're apologising

for the way that you reacted before,

firing off with
a smart-arse comment,

like, you know, "That's going to be
your loss, sweetheart."

Like, I don't know who you think
you're talking to.

But clearly, to me, that indicates

that you don't like to be challenged
by a woman.

I think she tries to talk to me
like she's figured me out

and she knows me,
when clearly she doesn't.

Like, do you - are you looking
for someone

who's going to, like, bow down
at your feet

and, like, treat you like a king?

I clearly don't want a slave
for a wife.

If anything, you know, my wife
can work, like, that's great.

All's I want is just
a submissive wife.

Well, once again, the challenge,

like, that's the masculine energy
coming out of you once again.

No, it's just an adult

having a conversation.
I'm not looking for a challenge.

I'm not looking for a challenge,

I'm looking for a submissive woman.
You're looking for someone

who's going to bow down at your feet

and treat you like a king.
No, definitely not.

Definitely not.

OK, so what does submissive
look like to you then?

The opposite of you.

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)

(TENSE SOUNDTRACK)
I'm not looking for a challenge.

I'm looking for a submissive woman.

You're looking for someone...
Submissive.

..who's going to bow down
at your feet

and treat you like a king.
No, definitely not.

Definitely not.

OK, so what does submissive
look like to you then?

The opposite of you.

To me, a submissive woman
would be someone

that's really easy-going
and sweet to talk to,

um, someone that wants
to cook for me,

not constantly try to compete
against me.

OK, so someone who's not going
to challenge you

when you are coming at me
with bullshit,

you expect me to just take that.
So, also, you're trying...

You're trying to challenge me...

Yeah.
..and you're very independent,

I can see that. You haven't been
in a relationship your whole life.

That's got nothing to do
with independence.

But OK.
OK.

But I'm just saying, once again...
I think it's I can hold my own

and you want someone
who wants to be run by you.

That does not work.
No, I wouldn't say...

I wouldn't say run.

I'd say just more submissive.
I would.

I am just trying to rectify
the issue.

You're always trying
to challenge me.

Yeah, because...
You know?

..I'm pulling you up
on your bullshit.

I think in the real world,
he would like his wife

to just keep her mouth shut.

What bullshit?

The way that you're coming at me
right now.

He honestly needs someone
who will just bow down to his feet

and praise him for the amazing
god-gift that he is.

(EXHALES) Me challenging you

on what you're saying

and getting you to think about
things in a different way,

you don't like.

You don't like to be challenged
in your thinking.

You like it your way and that's it.

It's very clear to me

that it's Tyson's way
and only Tyson's way,

and if you don't get your way,
you throw your toys out of the cot.

Let's just not bring it up anymore,
OK?

I'm going to go to a different room.

I think that's a great idea.
I reckon we should have some...

I reckon it's the best idea
I've had all experiment,

if you really want to know.

I'm over it. I'm not going to lie.

From the get-go,
she's brought masculine energy

to this relationship

and I think she needs to get
some constructive criticism

from the experts who have effective
communication, obviously.

I'm going to see you tomorrow.

OK?
Yeah.

I don't want a loudmouth.

I don't want someone that thinks
they're going to boss me around.

If we are both getting wound up,

obviously, learn to, you know,
stay quiet.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Catch you later, buddy.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

JOHN AIKEN:
We have three new couples.

Welcome to the experiment.
(CHEERING)

NARRATOR:
New love is served.

MAN: I want a submissive wife.

Otherwise,
we're gonna have problems.

JOHN: When you say submissive...

I'm just a lone lion
trying to defend myself.

New emotions simmer...

BEC: You came for my husband
with lies.

Shall I pull up the receipts,
shall I?

Wowza.

(CACKLES WITH LAUGHTER)

A night to savour...
