All language subtitles for MAFS After the Dinner Party (2026) S01E02 Episode 2

I'm going to pour my drink on her.

Can you muzzle your woman? You're not
coming for my husband.

Dinner is served.

Well, what do you want to know? What
does woke culture mean to you?

Listen, listen, let me say this. It
almost felt like I was getting attacked

bunch of hyenas.

You're going around dropping bombs. You
came for my husband.

Stare at me with your evil eyes.

I got told that Jules wished that she
had been matched with a woman.

Listen to me.

Feisty. Shut up, newbie. Stop getting
involved in everyone else's shit. You're

mean girl and all you do is go around
and talk shit about every sex here.

Take a screenshot, shall we? I'm
disappointed.

You think that someone has your back or
they don't?

Welcome to Maths After the Dinner Party.
I'm Jules, joined by Laura.

Brittany and Brittany's Platt. And holy
hell, you proved that there is an

insatiable appetite for this show. And
we are back with so much more.

Just when you thought things would quiet
down after last week, we were proved

very, very wrong.

There is so much to unpack from
tonight's dinner party.

But before we do, this week we met three
new couples who certainly made quite

the impression with the good, the bad,
and let's be real, the weirdly

Very strange. Yeah, a bit strange.

That's all right. I'm vibing it. We said
goodbye to our first two couples, of

course, Brooke and Chris and Rebecca and
Steve.

And the rumour swirling around Gia and
Danny.

has caused a lot of carnage. Yeah, it
certainly has. Now, what you guys have

come to expect, we have so much more of
it. So much exclusive, unseen footage.

We'll be exploring what the hell went
down at that dinner party tonight.

And also, the most controversial groom
yet, Tyson, is going to be coming in,

who, quite frankly, he has a lot to
answer for.

Are we ready to talk about Beck?

Oh, I don't know if I'm ready. What
happened?

Everything. What happened?

Beck took aim at every single
relationship tonight, and I mean...

I think that the reason why she did this
is because she's trying to take the

heat off her own relationship. Oh, yeah.
Definitely a bit of, like, Beck's

expose, wasn't it? She's like, I am
going to get something from everyone and

absolutely no one is safe. Oh, I thought
she was auditioning to become an

expert. No, she's going to work on her
delivery, but, you know, kudos to her. I

mean, coming back to what we talked
about last week, like, the behaviour is

biggest thing and...

tonight wasn't good, put it that way.
Yeah, I'm curious to hear what was

it and we'll know very soon. Well,
unsurprisingly, the night ended, of

with Beck and Gia coming to absolute
blows and it was on like Donkey Kong. I

shooketh again.

Beck will be joining us next and after
what went down after that dinner party,

think she has some serious explaining to
do.

Oh, he repulses me.

Actually, I just want to know why it was
that you didn't feel the need to speak

to Juliet's parents. That's it.

What about your mom saying that you lay
in her lap and she scratches your back

while you cuddle your teddy bear? You've
given me the ick. If you can't read the

situation accurately... Oh, honey,
you're the one that wrote them and read

It ain't me. I'm reading them how you
said them.

I got told from Gia that Jules wished...

That she had been matched with a woman.
No, no, no. Grayson's coming back. I

didn't say that. I did not say that.
What the hell's up?

Grayson's coming back. I didn't say
that.

Don't look at me with those evil eyes,
Scott.

Wait, wait, wait. Scott, are you wearing
mirrors in your eyes? Shut up, newbie.

Hey, listen to me. Listen to me.

You try to meddle in all of these
people's relationships. You're trying to

like you guys are this power couple.
Those tattoos.

Not the 13 with the...

Neither of you have got any friends here
anymore.

Where does it end? You talk shit about
it less and non -stop, babe.

So let's pull up the receipt, shall we?

Because you're a mean girl.

I'm the mean girl.

Take a screenshot, shall we?

Watch her implode, everybody.

Oh, Beck.

Beck.

Wow. How are you feeling?

I know it's obvious. Thanks for that.

Do you know what?

I don't want to come here and make
excuses for my behavior, right?

Because that's not what I'm about.

You know, I've done a lot of growing
since then. But I know that people are

going to see that as this toxic, crazy
woman coming in. And I look at myself

just see how hurt I was in that moment.
You know? I came in there and I was

hurt. And I...

It's just quintessential deflection.

Watching it, you can see you're lashing
out at everyone, and that's not to

excuse the behaviour, but what was the
intention? What was the plan in doing

I thought, well, if I can prove that
she's lying about these things, you've

about my husband, and then I can prove
his trust.

I was desperately trying to save this
relationship, but instead of going in

having a conversation like an adult, not
like a feral, I went in.

and just attacked anyone that looked at
me but but beck do you not see that in

behaving like that you're doing exactly
what was done to you do you not see

absolutely you're damaging or had the
potential to damage everyone else's

relationship yeah and you know we look
at grayson and where they're at like

they're obviously already struggling you
lit a grenade in that relationship i

sit here and i'm telling you right now
the way i behaved at that dinner party

was unacceptable.

I should have walked in there and taken
accountability for my relationship and

said, guys, I'm drowning.

Because that's where I was. Do you feel
embarrassed?

Oh, I'm mortified.

Do you think that I look... Do you think
I watch this dinner party and think,

good on you, Bec? No, I think... I watch
this dinner party and think I've

embarrassed myself, my family, my
friend, the show.

It's mortifying, you know?

And, like, since that moment I have
grown, but yet it's mortifying to watch.

Sorry. I feel so bad for the people that
I hurt because that's not me.

I'm a kind person.

Sorry.

I'm a kind person and that reflects so
poorly, but I did that. They were my

actions.

Bec, I want to say one thing, though.

It takes an awful amount of
accountability to sit here after

and still have this conversation.

We gave Gia the opportunity to come in
and to have this conversation and to

accountability here on the couch. And
she chose not to do that. She chose to

post it on social media or do it in a
different way.

But that to me screams a lack of
accountability is what it does. Because

hard. This is really hard.

Not easy.

If you were given a chance, a do -over.
No, but describe to me, knowing you're

still feeling as fragile, what are the
actions you take that night? Do you know

what? I would have walked into that room
and used those women, my friends, and

told them how I was feeling and said to
them, guys, I'm drowning.

I've had the worst week. I need help.

But instead, I walked in there and I was
like...

I'm going to swear. You're in fight. No,
you can't. You're in fight mode. Fuck

you and fuck you and fuck you.

And if my relationship's bad, all of
your relationships should be bad too.

And that is just awful. It was the
ugliest side of me.

How did Danny react? Because that's one
thing we don't see. And, you know,

there's moments of it. We see that there
is a bit of a divide and you can see

that you're trying to get him to sit
with you to give you that sort of

almost, reassurance.

What then happened after this? How did
it affect things?

He went home and he said, well, I told
you I wanted to ride or die.

He thinks that proving that Gia was a
liar in that moment meant that that

cleared his name.

But the way I acted towards the other
couples to get to that point was

unacceptable. But what do you believe at
this point with Danny? Do you believe

he did it or not? This is my thought.

I was there at Icebergs that night. I
watched the conversation.

I was sitting here across the table and
I watched them lean across.

I think Danny said, things are going
okay with Beck, but, you know, maybe not

type, whether it be physically or, you
know, I'm quite brash and whatnot

sometimes, whatever it may be. Stop it.

Didn't you know?

I think that he said something to that
effect and Gia went, well, he must want

me, so I'll say it's me. And that's
where it's come from. I think that...

it's been pulled out of him. It's been,
like, prodded. Correct.

Or instigated, and that's how.

That's what I think has happened.

I think it's important to have a look at
some of the conversations that have

been happening since the show has aired
and some of the things that two of you

have had to say about each other. Yeah,
go for it.

Who do you want your side set on?

Beck. Yeah, I mean, you guys pretty much
saw that in the hens.

We've become arch -nemesis on the show.

What are your thoughts on the bride,
Gia?

I find her to be really...

She's going around saying that I called
her a trashy S -L -U -T at the hen's

party. It never happened.

She's a bit of a S -H -I -T stirrer. Her
and I kind of both give it to each

other and just rub each other the wrong
way. I just think that's just her and I.

The nation will be divided.

Some people will be on Gia's side and
some people will be Team Beck.

There's a lot of heavy, fiery dinner
parties.

I'm at the centre of a lot of them.
Guys, buckle up.

Buckle up.

Gia and I certainly do not get along.

We still don't.

We do need to talk a little bit about a
hen's night because the hen's night just

seems to be continuously brought up.

What went down that has caused all this?
Because that is ground zero. The show's

just started and it just feels like it
is exploding.

What happened? I think Gia and I both
walked into that hen's party as really

personalities and probably...

dominant over the other women in our
personalities.

There was nothing said, I don't believe,
like, that actually, like,

made it.

Did you not say what she just alleged?

I rang...

And I said, is there footage of me
saying this? Because if there is, I owe

an apology.

I don't remember telling her that. There
might be footage. And if there is, then

I owe her an apology. Well, the team
actually responded to your request.

Is there footage?

Here's some unseen footage that might
bring some clarity.

I felt like you were a little bitch when
you walked in here. And now I feel

really bad because I think you're really
nice. Do you know what's so funny? I

just said that about you.

She said to me, I said fucked up shit
about you. So I was like, cool.

She's like, I'm sorry, I said fucked up
shit about you.

No, I don't like it. No, because she
said that so I wouldn't. Do you know

mean? But I did, I didn't give a fuck.

She doesn't know who she's dealing with.
She can figure it out. She doesn't know

who she's fucking with, so that's fine.

Okay, yeah.

Well, not a trashy S -O -U -T, but maybe
worse.

I don't know what's better.

Maybe A, maybe B.

I think the C next Tuesday is probably
worse.

Oh, way worse.

The floor's yours.

Yeah, I mean, I owe her an apology for
calling her that, if that's what I did.

You know, an apology.

If. Well, no, I owe her an apology for
calling her that. Yeah.

Apology where an apology is due.

I think you guys are like the perfect
example of someone who is a frenemy.

It's like this idea of keeping it. No,
but it's true. It's like keeping your

friends close, but your enemies closer.
And this dance that you seem to do

between like, we're friends, but we hate
each other. But we're friends, but we

hate like this dance.

Yeah. It's toxic as hell. And we can all
see it play out. But it goes in cycles.

And I doubt.

that we've seen the end of it, to be
honest.

Are you surprised that Gia is not here
tonight? I think Gia's not here because

she doesn't want to deal with the hard
questions.

It's not easy to sit here in front of
you guys.

It's not easy to sit here and say, you
acted disgustingly. One thing I will say

is different and a bit of a standout for
you is you are here showing up and

taking accountability, and I think that
is so important.

So I do want to say...

that you've done a good job at doing
that. So well done for at least taking

accountability. Again, I hope we never
see it from you again and I hope you've

learnt some lessons from it. Thank you.
But you did show up and you have

apologised. Thank you.

Bec, we are going to get you to stay
around because there is more to come.

Mr John Aitken is gracing us with his
presence, his insight and knowledge once

again with Aitken's Insights, which... I
really love.

Rebecca is lifting the lid on what Steve
was really like behind closed doors.

And deep breaths because the lone wolf
from tonight's dinner party, Tyson, is

about to join us. Oh, dear. While he's
only been on our screens a short time.

Too many days ago. Well, he has
certainly caused a stir, and if there's

thing we've learnt about him, he's not
one to hold back.

I wouldn't date or marry a woke person.
A lot of these woke people that I've met

aren't the shops, tools and the shed.
What would be a woke woman for you?

A woman with green hair, a complete
feminist.

A woman that hates Donald Trump. I
personally like Trump. I reckon he's

great job.

The worst case scenario would be she
walked down the aisle and she was fat.

And I was thinking, Mum?

Hello!

How old are you, if you don't mind me
asking?

I'm 32.

32? OK.

Not too happy about that. I was hoping
to get a wife maybe in her mid -20s. I'm

exceptionally goal -driven and
ambitious.

Oof. I want submissive vibes.

She came across very frigid.

She needs to definitely change that.

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.

Recently, I was in somewhat of a
relationship.

Unfortunately, she told me her body
count and I think it was like 78 or

something crazy.

I had to escort her out of the house
because, yeah, I sort of don't want to

HIV here.

If I'm into the girl, I'll pay.

But if I'm not really into her, then I'm
50 -50.

It's where I find it contradictory
because you're like, I want to be his

provider. I am your wife right now. All

right, well, I'm filled with a bit of
rage.

Rage, I don't even have a word. Sorry,
he is a walking red flag contradiction.

He's also offended every single woman in
Australia.

And people with green hair.

What's the thing with the green hair?

Wow. I think it's very obvious we have a
lot of questions for Tyson, so let's

get him on out here.

Ladies and gentlemen, how are we? Tyson,
Tyson, Tyson.

How are you?

Good, Tyson.

Bring it in, bring it in.

Long time no see. I reckon.

Take a seat.

Nice to meet you, Jules.

Brittany. Brittany. And Laura.

How are you doing?

Laura. Yeah, nice to meet you.

I just want to start by asking, what is
your dream wife, your dream life? Like,

set us up for it. You could have
anything.

Yeah, sure. So I guess for me, I'm just
a traditional wife. So when I say

traditional as well, like, I don't mean
she has to be at home cooking and

cleaning all day. Like, if she wants to
work, go for it.

But just, I don't know, starting a
family, having a few kids, me being, I

you know, I've said it a million times,
but, you know, the provider of the

household. And having my partner stay
home, looking after the kids.

Yeah, just living a good life on the
Gold Coast.

Something you said then, which is not
what has been displayed, you said

traditional, traditional values,
traditional household.

But the word that you kept choosing on
tonight's episode and actually since

you've joined was submissive. I want
someone who is submissive. Do you know

that means? Do you know what submissive
actually means? I know submissive comes

across as controlling, right? I
understand that.

But I feel like for me...

And with my relationship with Steph, I
felt like she was kind of making me the

submissive one. Like I was doing all the
cooking, the cleaning. And just some of

the comments she was saying as well,
like just saying, oh, you know, do you

to be like a house husband and stuff
like that? And submission, just because,

look, as a guy, you don't want a
submissive wife.

How effing boring is that?

I disagree.

Why? What does that look like? No, no,
traditional. I've got, we've had a

traditional, you know, my wife has
brought up the kids. I've been the

breadwinner. That's traditional. Yeah.

But we're very equal.

If she did everything I said, that's
boring.

Like, get a Cavoodle.

I have one. They're great. They're
submissive. Just get a dog.

Like, why do you need a wife to be
submissive?

What's the appeal?

Well, you know, submissive, you know, I
probably could have worded it maybe a

little better. I probably could have
said traditional.

No, no, it's different. Because
traditional is an overarching thing.

Steph went in there wanting someone to
take control and take charge. She

actually said that. Did you know that?
She did say that, but she says one thing

and does another. So why did she change,
Tyson, in your opinion?

Why did she change?

Why did she go in there happy for a guy
to take charge and then change her

opinion? I don't know. Maybe I was too
forceful. I'm not too sure.

You say submissive, and maybe this is a
case.

of not understanding what the word
means. I disagree.

Submissive means... No, I'll give you
the definition of it so you know. And

I'll tell you my definition. No, no, but
there is an English definition that's

in the dictionary.

And it means compliance. You're sort of
talking down on me, but yeah.

Okay, I am, because it's frustrating and
really offensive as a woman. Well,

we're still talking, but I thought we've
answered the question.

Submissive means...

As the dictionary definition, compliant
and obedient.

That's what submissive means. Okay,
what's your definition?

It's not my definition. It is the
English Oxford Dictionary definition of

submissive. Is that what you want?

I think to an extent, I would like to be
the leader of the house. Yeah, I'd like

to be the leader of the house. What I'm
asking, do you want someone obedient?

Well, would you say that's controlling,
being the leader of the house? Would you

say that that?

I would say if you want someone who is
obedient.

Yes, it's controlling, and you want a
dog. Okay. Well, then, there you go.

Maybe that's what I want.

Wow. You want a dog.

I don't want a dog. I literally want a
dog, but I want to be the man of the

house. I don't think there's anything
wrong with that. A leader.

I'm sure every female wants that.

No, they don't.

They don't. That is funny. Women have
ambitions and dreams and careers.

Tyson, you do not believe that you think
that every woman wants to be

controlled. Well, look.

Maybe not every woman. And I don't
literally mean controlling. Amy. No, but

listen. I don't mean literally, like,
put a leash.

Like, I'm not that sort of guy. I'm not
saying it like that. And I'm not trying

to catch you out. I'm genuinely asking
you because the language that you're

using, and I'm talking on behalf of all
the women who... He's having a good

time. Yeah, he is. He always is. All the
women who are going to watch this, and

they hear that word, and words do have
literal meanings, and so therefore it is

important to get to the crux of it. I
don't want a subservient wife. Like, I

don't want my wife to feel like a dog.
It's like...

Yeah, or a slave. But I do, once again,
like those traditional values.

You are a walking contradiction.

I disagree.

You just said it in your opening line.
You said, I'm happy for her to work, but

I want a woman that stays at home. So
which one is it? Can she work or does

stay home? No, no, no. If she has kids,
if we have kids together, of course.

Stay home and look after the kids.

If not, go work. That's why I'm like
that. So, Laura, who looks after your

all the time? My husband a lot. But,
look.

I want to be clear. That's okay.

My husband is very ambitious, but we
juggle and we have parity in our

relationship. I love him, by the way.
Complete parity and equality.

And no one is submissive to the other.
And we both have big careers, big lives,

and we parent our children with equal
masculine and feminine energy. And in no

way do I look at my husband and think
he's less of a man for doing so.

Okay. Tyson, do you think women and men
are equal?

Of course.

So then...

why when you guys were talking about
body count, you said your body count,

22, and you said... I don't know what it
is. Well, it's what we saw, and you

said, I think that's pretty good. That
was your verbatim quote.

And then when Seth gave you hers, which
was the same, you said that was too

much. So if women and men are equal, why
are they not equal with who they're

allowed to sleep with? Well, I feel like
men and women lie about their body

count. I feel like with a woman,
usually...

You have to have it, and with a man, a
man usually doubles it. So you're

thinking... I think she has a lot more.

Pardon? But it means you also have a lot
more. It doesn't matter. It means it's

the same. It could do. If you said 20
and she said 20 and you're both at 40,

cares? You're both the same.

Why as a man and a woman? They can't
have personal preference. Can I ask a

question?

Is it hard dating? When you have really
strong beliefs, are you willing to...

Compromise on that? Yeah, like I've said
it a million times on the show, I'm not

perfect. So what are you willing...
We'll be willing to make compromises for

sure. What do you think, based on what
you've seen and what we've seen,

you know, that was a little time ago,
what do you think you've already evolved

on? For me, like something I've improved
on, I think would be judgment.

Like I felt like I probably did come
across a little bit judgmental on the

So which judgments?

Like me as an individual, I feel like I
probably could have had a little bit

more decorum in certain things that I
said.

Um, so I think for me, I've grown in
that regard.

Yeah. I don't know if it was a joke and
I have three children myself.

Okay. You made the comment of like, it's
easy. You take them to the toilet. They

go to the toilet. You just, you have no
idea how hard it is. Okay. No, I take

accountability there. That is something.

That I regret saying. Like, I think it
was a little bit of immaturity on my

behalf because it's not easy. And quite
frankly, I do respect all the single

mums out there because they would be
doing it hard. And so they've got

children. Hey, Bec, how has Tyson's
arrival changed up the experience?

Oh, it's definitely given us a lot to
talk about, that's for sure. Hey, speak

for yourself.

True. Yeah, look,

it's definitely given us a lot to talk
about, that's for sure. I mean, you do

come in with some weird and, I mean, I'm
not normal, but like weird and wacky.

Shut up, darling.

Shut up, everyone.

Sorry. Oh, Tyson, everyone's been
talking about you. It's safe to say not

everyone has been fans.

Let's have a look at what the rest of
the gang said about you after the dinner

party. His whole demeanour pissed me
off.

That's not how a man should act or treat
a woman.

Burning bridges already, bro. Like,
maybe you want to keep that shit inside.

If Tyson backs his comments about being
a right -wing, homophobic, anti -woke

male, he's got a lot fucking coming for
him.

Tyson and the teeny -peeny. That's what
he's going to be called from now on.

Teeny -peeny? What the hell does that
mean?

Tyson in the bin.

I'm done.

I don't know what to say to that.

First of all, teeny -peeny, what are you
referring to?

That's bizarre.

You've got small dick energy, brother.

Okay. As a female, you give us small
dick energy.

Okay, well, it's bizarre to say.

I could... I know.

Why would they give you small dick
energy? I don't know, dude, because

walking around saying you want a fucking
servant. Like, are you joking? I'm not

saying that at all. Well, that's how we
took it. Have you seen the way that you

talk? I have seen the way I've acted,
yeah. Yeah, and it's terrible.

So I don't know where you get the small
dick energy thing from, but it's

completely inappropriate.

Tyson, how do you... I mean, I can tell
that you're uncomfortable, and I

understand why this is uncomfortable.

Yeah. How do you...

And how do you feel when you see things
like that? And you see how people have

spoken because they've interpreted what
you've said in a certain way. Yeah,

look, it's uncomfortable to watch. And,
you know, I clearly have offended quite

a few people by the looks of it. I
should have really just said

whole submissive thing was probably a
little bit out of place. Just the wrong

word. Well, wrong word, I guess. Okay,
look, Tyson, love you or not.

There's no doubt you speak your truth.
So we want to play a little game with

called the Honesty Box.

It should be very familiar. It's like
the honeymoon box.

It didn't go that well for you from
memory. Neither did me, babe. Don't

Okay. So in this box is a series of
rapid -fire questions.

And in true Tyson style, you can answer
with absolutely no filter.

All right. Let's get going.

Come on, Ty.

Let's go, baby.

Let's go.

Come on, Ty. Deep breath.

Come on, let's go, baby. Are you Team
Beck or Team Gia?

Neither.

Do you think Danny said Gia was his
type?

No.

Who would you hate to be stuck in a lift
with?

I'm sorry, Beck, probably you. I thought
it was going to be me.

Who would you least like to be matched
with?

I'd probably say Mel.

Interesting. I'd probably say Mel, no
offence, but probably you.

If not...

Stephanie, which other bride would you
like to be matched with? None. Oh,

actually, no, I'll take that back. I'll
take that back. I reckon Stella.

Stella's a really, really good chick.
Hard to argue with that. Okay. Who is

best -looking bride?

I'd probably say Alyssa, I reckon.

I reckon she's quite pretty. She's
beautiful. Who is the best -looking

I'd say me.

No.

It's back to itself. I love the modesty.
I love the modesty. That was

entertaining. I need a drink.

Beck and Tyson, thank you for joining us
tonight. It has, well, given us a lot

to think about. It's been a
rollercoaster. It's been a real ride. I

hope you come back at some time, I
think. After that, I don't know.

With a dictionary.

That would be great. I wish you guys
well. I'm sure that there is a lot more

come. Appreciate it, guys.

How do you get out of here? All right,
well, look, for now, it is time to troll

the trolls.

You'll join some other familiar faces to
read out the most glowing reviews.

Looking forward to it.

It can't be anywhere.

Let's have some fun with it. He's posted
and roasted.

If I wanted to make my husband as
unattractive as possible, I'd dress him

Danny's shirt.

That's gold.

Striking routine.

5813 writes, I worry that Stephen smells
like Lynx Africa.

Why would you worry about that? Would
you rather I, you know?

Smell like shit.

At B Doven 22, Beck giving off Timu
Sophie Monk vibes.

What an honour.

Slut triple four pasta.

I'm also a slut for a pasta. Says, if
he's 31, I'm a newborn.

Pets, plants and places. Says, so once
Pauline Hanson, minus the children.

Well, yeah. I don't mind Pauline Anson,
actually.

If she's 10 years younger, I think we'd
make a great couple. And who knows? We

might even have great -looking kids.

At LKJHGGFHD1.

Chris is definitely not six foot. I've
fucking measured myself four fucking

times. I'm six foot.

At LloydGSR says, Beck's lovely and all,
but looks a little bit like a Whoville

resident.

Do you know what, guys?

The Grinch is my favourite movie.

Bertie G says, Tyson's personality will
only attract a bald dog.

That's actually quite funny. You're
probably not wrong.

At Lucky Bitch 555, Danny just doesn't
look like a guy who could make someone

look like him.

Salty's Official underscore 2 .0 says,
Imagine going to Turkey and getting a

beard like that.

Imagine going to Turkey and not getting
a beard like that.

Are there nice ones in here?

No.

Did you snort?

Alright, well, speaking of roastings,
Joel's mum didn't see Deliver on the

wedding night with that speech. My
goodness.

He would also only feed when he wanted
to and refused milk from any bottle.

He would rather starve himself...

which turned into the opposite problem
as he got older, and he turned into a

gluttonous pig.

Oh, my God. I love the fact that they
have this sense of humor between them.

It's really beautiful.

You just need to understand that no one
else gets it. So choose your audience.

I'm in place, so I actually think Joel's
mum wants Joel to be single forever.

But of all the newcomers, I am really
rooting for Chris and Sam. I don't know

about you, but I had a smile on my face.
They're adorable. The whole wedding,

from the moment they saw each other. The
problem is Chris is holding back on

some very big, very important news.

So to help us unpack that, the man, the
myth, the legend himself, John.

Aiken is going to be joining us on this
hot little couch. It is time for Aiken's

Insights. Can I just stop you there? No.
All right. We've heard enough.

Here he is.

Hello, Jill. Welcome back. Great to have
you back. What a week. Those new

newlyweds have certainly arrived with
style.

They have. And one of the great things
about this part of the experiment is

you're inserting these new couples into
a group that's well established.

And so it creates all sorts of ripple
effects.

And you also are seeing whether some
true love can once again blossom.

Oh, my God. Speaking of true love, Sam
and Chris, we adore them. Adore them.

Great matching.

But Chris has a very big secret, and he
has a baby that's coming.

That's right. We've never seen this
before. We've never had it before. It's

little bit like if we were matching a
pregnant woman.

Or different because a pregnant woman,
depending on where she is, probably

hide it as well. Yeah, that's a good
point.

And so when you're looking to match
someone like Chris, you have to be

about the person that you're putting him
with.

They've got to be into kids'
responsibility.

They've got to see the big picture and
not be wanting something casual or being

unsure about their relationship
expectations.

That's where Sam comes in. He's an
absolute down -to -earth.

reliable sort of guy, lovely guy, who I
think can take on this big picture that

Chris comes in with.

The baby news is a huge thing to reveal,
and the honeymoon would have been the

perfect time to do it. However, he did
hold back.

Let's revisit it and have a look.

What is one important thing I should
know about you?

Fuck, fuck, fuck.

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?

There is something that I want to tell
you, 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.

It's interesting because we here on The
Lounge know this news. The audience at

home knows this news. You know this
news. It seems like everyone's in on it

except the person that needs to be,
which is Sam.

Do you think that he should have told
him, like Chris would have told him in

that moment? Do you know what? I really
like the way he couched it because he's

alluding to it. He's saying, I've got
something big that I really want to tell

you about, but now is just not quite the
right time.

I think that was better than him just
saying, no, no, no, I don't have

really major. So I think what he's doing
is he's gently laying the groundwork to

really tell him this huge reveal.

And we see that a number of the time
during the experiment, that people have

secrets or big moments that they want to
discuss. They've just got to pick the

time. But it's not like Gia and Scott,
where Scott would be a stepdad. You're

coming in at the inception.

Sam actually really becomes an equal
father from the start. And I think with

particularly, what you're going to see
is a guy with an amazing personality

the more you see him, the more you
think, you know, he can deal with this.

of people couldn't, but I think Sam is a
person that can really step into that

role that you're talking about.

Well, there you go. We're looking
forward to seeing the newlyweds.

The commitment ceremony.

Thanks so much. We always love your
insights.

Thanks, John.

Thanks for coming.

Hey, well, the entire nation was rooting
for Rebecca and Steve on their wedding

day, me included. As soon as she walked
out and saw him and he saw her, sparks

were flying. And I thought, oh, this is
going to be the couple and the love

story we all need. But it didn't take
long for the cracks to show. And let me

tell you, once it started snowballing,
it was like an avalanche. Have a look at

this.

Hello. How are you?

Very happy.

Very happy. I'm attracted to her. Really
happy at this point.

Rebecca's not my usual type. Her
emotions are very high and very low. I

understand some of her humour. Rebecca's
just a lot in general.

How's it going?

Very happy. Nothing wrong with the
wedding day, the connection, everything.

Make a hug.

Anyway, I'll show you what I bought.

If you wanted me to put it on... I'd
rather not.

At this point in time, I don't think I'm
doing a lot wrong, to be honest.

I'm sick of being half of who I am
because I'm so fearful that I'm going to

too much for you. You are too much for
me, yes, I agree.

Yeah.

Let's just leave it at that.

I would have to be the weakest man.

I've ever met in my entire life.

I chose to leave. Leave with a kiss.

Rebecca.

Oh, my God. Looking at your wedding day,
we all had such high hopes for what

that was going to be.

I mean, did you feel the same at that
point?

Absolutely, yeah. And where do you think
things started to unravel?

Where do I start?

Well, you have to start. Oh, my God.

Yeah, like the wedding that we all saw
on the screens obviously was exactly how

it was. It was beautiful.

Like it really was a beautiful day.

I did say to John, I'm going to be the
poster girl for over 50s. I'm married at

first sight, finding love. Like we've
got this.

And as soon as I saw him, there was that
instant connection straight away. That

was real. That was how I felt in that
moment.

The honeymoon was great.

Everything was great until we moved in.

to the apartment.

It sort of started to unravel, which was
really, really difficult.

Everything was great. We were going at
Steve's pace.

As soon as I started saying, I want to
go on a date, I want to go out for

coffee, just a bit of romance.

But Steve's pace was like a snail. No,
but what was Steve's pace? Because the

thing is, sometimes objectively watching
it, it seems as though there's this

expectation of physical intimacy, that
that's the pace. But you're saying, I

just want to go on a date. I just want
to go out together. So was he not doing

any of those things when the cameras
weren't rolling?

Nothing. Nothing. With the whole
intimacy thing, I wasn't talking about

jump into bed.

That wasn't what I wanted to do at all.
I was just talking about like a hand,

like a hug.

Just some kind of connection.

Just give me something. And there was a
zero. And the thing is, looking back now

when I'm watching it, he just wasn't
into me. And the thing is, that's okay.

I want to be really clear. It's not
about the rejection for me. It's about

fact that I went in, crazy now in
hindsight, thinking, I'm going to find

person.

So just the disappointment and robbing
me of that experience, I'm still...

Like, it's still hard for me.

You'd be mad about it. I would be too.

Well, you guys left at the last
commitment ceremony, but we do have an

moment from your last dinner party on
the experiment.

Understandably, it didn't fit into the
chaos and craziness of that night, but

is interesting, and I think we all have
some questions.

Okay. I feel like that he hasn't been
here with me in this experiment at all.

said there's no romantic connection.

Yes or no, but do you find her
attractive? Yes or no? Oh, I said

very attractive woman.

But not my type.

But he hasn't actually said that to me.
Okay, I'm more conservative.

Because I'm losing my shit because I
came in here for the right reasons.

He's drung me along. Just tell me two
weeks ago. I'm not that into you. I

care. Oh, Rebecca.

To me, it seems like that was the first
time that you had ever heard Steve say

that you weren't his type, was it? Yeah.

Yeah. He just gaslit me the whole way
through. And that's the thing. Like,

be honest. Like, just say you're not
into me. I mean, you've spoken about

This is something that you took very
seriously. And that was one, I mean, the

accusations that were thrown around,
which was like, what are the real

you're here for?

Oh, God, yeah.

You seem as though this is still
emotionally really affecting you. Do you

feel super disappointed by the lack of
how Steve took it seriously?

Absolutely. Look, I've had my journey.
It didn't work out.

But it's so disappointing that he just
didn't show up. Like, you feel robbed.

Like, I feel completely robbed. I don't
know if he could have won.

I know that, like, on one hand, if he
did as you said and two weeks ago said,

I'm not feeling it, I want to leave,
then everyone would have got into him

said, you're not even willing to give
this a chance. But if they do stay and

they say, I'm not feeling it, but I'm
willing to give it a go, then we're

that they're leading you on and
stringing you up.

Okay, you're starting to sound a bit
like Steve now.

Sorry. That's a joke. That's a joke. I
don't mean that.

Okay. So the thing is, is this. I was
saying to him that I was here for love.

They're the reasons I'm here. He
basically said, people are sick. Like

other contributors are not just here for
love. You'd be an idiot just to be here

for love. And I'm like, well, I was.

And then I found out that he had, I'm
giving you a shout out, Steve.

He had an app that he was working on and
he was going around asking the

contributors to invest.

Oh.

There's your shout -out, Steve.

Just giving him a shout -out.

So he wasn't there for me at all. And
that's the thing that hurts me.

I'm not your type. That's fine. But lean
into it. Let's just have some fun with

it and be a decent human being.

Let's have the respect for each other
and be decent.

Look, we did invite him here tonight.

Unfortunately, he declined the
invitation.

But here's an unseen clip of what he had
to say when he left the experiment.

I want to meet someone. I want to...

Find someone, go for dinner Friday night
or Saturday, see them on Monday,

Tuesday. I need to get to this point
that this was really too much too soon,

think, for me. I'm ready for a
relationship, just possibly not one

I've gone from being single to living
with someone, being married with someone

overnight, and that is a lot to take on.

It's like he's never seen Married at
First Sight. It's like he's never been

real relationship.

I don't know. I don't think he was ready
for a relationship with me.

Yeah, I was too much for him. He didn't
want a marriage. He wanted a girlfriend

that lived at a separate house. And
look, you should be able to have that at

that age. You want your freedoms.

Wasted your time.

absolutely yeah look Rebecca genuinely
we want to say thank you for being so

open and vulnerable and there were so
many people rooting for you to find love

truly do believe you when you say that
you came here to find that yeah and I

really do hope that you find it out
there in that big weird wild wonderful

and I know there is someone waiting for
you so thank you fellas Slide into the

DMs. Just make sure you're also
available Wednesdays and Thursdays too.

Oh, well, the drama has been absolutely
off the charts at the commitment

ceremonies this year. Personally, I
can't wait for Sunday night. Here is a

peek of the chaos to come.

You're saying I want to be with someone
who will lie down, give up their rights.

I'm not saying that. Well, you are.

I'm not. You actually are saying that.
Watching you last night.

apply a blowtorch to pretty much
everybody at the dinner party if you

enough grenades in other people's
relationships you can avoid having tough

conversations about the two of you

Well, everyone, that is all that we have
time for tonight. But with the new

couples officially moving in and the OGs
meeting the families, there will no

doubt be so much more for us to unpack
next time. Catch it all on 9 and 9 now

from Sunday to Wednesday. We'll be back
at the same time next week, straight

after the dinner party on Stan.

And if this week is anything to go by,
the experiment is going to keep us on

toes. Prepare to be shocked.

See you next week.

Bye. See ya.
