All language subtitles for are you the one s08e01

Nour:I always felt like
I stuck out.

I was doing everything

that everybody told me
I'm not allowed to do.

Kylie:I don't want to change
who I am.

I want somebody to like me
for who I am.

Brandon:I felt like I was
everything I could have been

except honest.

I'm bisexual,
and I ( bleep ) love it.

? Oh, oh, oh

? Oh, oh, oh

Basit:
Live your truth, okay?

I sure am living mine.

? This vibe,
you can't fight it ?

I am very proud
of being bisexual.

I think of it
as a superpower, basically.

? We're gonna ride
this highway ?

What if we're a perfect match?

? Don't have no time to lose

I think you're ( bleep )
magic.

? I'm gonna take you
with me ?

I don't want no regrets,
just love.

? Get ready,
get ready ?

- Wow, you are mine.
- Hey, watch that tongue.

- No.
- Oh!

? Get ready

Are you ready, America?

- 'Cause I doubt it!
- Let's ( bleep ) go!

( music playing )

? La, la, la
Let's go, let's go ?

-? La, la, la
- ( screaming )

Oh, my God, I feel I'm, like,
rich and famous right now.

- I'm overwhelmed.
- Is anyone else here? Hello?

Kari:I have no idea
if my perfect match is gonna be
a male or a female.

I'm attracted to both genders.
I'm ambidextrous, for example.

I use both hands.
No one's ever questioned

that I'm just straight
to one hand.

You know what I mean?
It's like the same thing.

- Hi, I'm Jenna.
- Hi, I'm Kari.

- Nice to meet you.
How are you?
- Nice to meet you.

I am single because I am
very damaged,

and I attract
the wrong people.

It's almost like,
"You're ( bleep ) up.
You have a criminal record.

Awesome. I'm Kari.
Nice to meet you."

So tell me about your guys',
you know, sexuality.

- What's your story?
- Yo, so I'm pansexual meaning

I don't really care
about what your gender is

and what's going on
in your pants.

My gender is fluid.

? Your first touch
is taking me ?

Am I a girl or a boy?

Yes.

No.

Both.
Neither.

- Do you have a preferred
pronoun?
- So if you don't mind me asking

yeah, your preferred pronoun.

They/them is really cool.

It means that
you're thinking about it,

but honestly,
my preferred pronoun is Basit.

I am sick of basicness,
okay?

All my life,
I've had to dumb down who I am.

I've had to act more straight
than I wanted to be.

I'm sick of having to compromise
myself in relationships

because people can't handle
the person that I am.

And that is why
I am single.

Today's my mother( bleep )
birthday.

Happy birthday! Yay!

I do have some tendencies
that aren't very healthy
in terms of relationships.

- Wait, why--
- Happy birthday!

Jenna:
I'm extremely jealous.

Like if I feel
just this much jealousy,

I want to make them jealous,

which is totally uncalled for,
toxic, and unhealthy.

- Hey.
- Oh, my gosh. Younger people?

( all yelling )

- Welcome, welcome, welcome.
- Hi!

- Hi.
- You are so fine.
What is your name?

- You're so fine. I'm Kari.
What's your name?
- Kari? Aasha.

I had a boyfriend
and a serious relationship
for three years,

and while we were together,
I also was the one
that kind of, like,

opened the door to, like,
having a threesome.

but that blew up in my face

'cause he really thought
that he had two girlfriends.

I'm done with the flings.
I'm done with the
situationships,

and I'm ready to be
someone's queen.

I am a musician.
What do you do?

- I'm a bank manager.
- Bank manager?

Yeah, but I also make music.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

so maybe we can do something.

Maybe.
What kind of bank management?

- For a bank.
I manage people's money.
- ( laughing )

Jonathan:
People do tell me that
I'm beautiful and very striking

and beautiful eyes
and crazy hair and,
like, they love it,

but I do have a hard time
picking up people

because I don't really believe
those things about myself.

So I think I may lack
in the confidence department
just a little bit.

And that does sometimes put me
in positions

to be a little bit reserved,
maybe shy.

All right, I see you.

I definitely think
I have a crush on Jonathan.

He just, like,
what a mesmerizing mane of hair.

I'm a big fan
of "The Lion King,"

and Mufasa has a mane,
and I'm into that mane.

- ( indistinct chattering )
- I think I hear people.

- Shh, shh.
- Oh, there's people coming.
There's people coming.

- Where?
- Shh, shh, shh.

- There's people coming.
- Come here, come here,
come here.

- Shh, shh, shh.
- ( gasps )

- Holy ( bleep ).
- ( screaming )

- ( screaming )
- Welcome!

- What's your name?
- Hi, I'm Kari.

- Kari, I'm Kai.
Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

Kai:
I'm extremely excited
about this opportunity

because how many times do you
put a bunch of queer people

in a house and you just say,
"Go for it"?

We all like each other.
But at the same time,

I'm a little bit nervous.

I have these experiences
in the back of my head

where people, like,
have rolled their eyes at me.

- You are beautiful.
- Thank you.

- Hi, what's your name?
- You too, actually.

- What's your name?
- My name's Basit.

My name is Kai.

Kind of androgynous.

- You are so cute.
- Hi. You're so cute!

- Okay.
- Kai:I biologically was
female,

but when I was born,
no one consulted me
and was like,

Hey, uh,
do you like this name?

Does this gender
feel right for you?

All of a sudden,
it clicked for me

that the box wasn't locked.

Like, I could step outside
the box and be like,

"Oh, okay. Wait, like,
I'm allowed to choose."

What are your pronouns?

- He/him or they/them.
- Right.

I am a queer transmasculine
non-binary human

who has chosen
to medically transition.

Non-binary means that I don't
prescribe to either male
or female.

- I'm somewhere in between.
- He's honestly my snag.

- Who?
- He's so hot.

Who are we talking about?

He's so hot.
He's totally my type.

- Which one?
- He's so androgynous.

- Yeah.
- Oh, my God.

I want-- I want him.

He kinda reminds me
of Justin Beiber...

in the sexiest way.

Whoo!

- Oh!
- More people.

- Jasmine, I'm Paige. Hi.
- Hi.

Dang. This hair, bro.
What?

Growing up in conservative-ass
Texas,

I was terrified for anybody
to know I was bi.

I was a captain
on my football team.
I won All-State.

When I came out,
I felt the most relief

because that was literally
the biggest secret

I was probably holding
my entire life.

- Jasmine, Max.
- Max. Thank you.

- Danny. nice to meet you.
How are you doing?
- Danny, nice to meet you.

Brandon:
Coming into the house
this season,

you can be yourself and embrace
both men and women.

If you look good, like,
I mean, "Here's my digits.
What time are you coming over?"

- What's your name?
- I'm Kylie. What's yours?

- Kylie, I'm Justin.
Nice to meet you.
- Justin, nice to meet you.

I never really
have to approach people.

They just, uh,
naturally gravitate towards me.

I guess it's a gift,
but they've been extremely
disposable to me.

And I would love
a good chase.

- Hi.
- How's it going? Justin.

- I'm Nour. Justin?
- Nour?

- Nour.
- Wow, that's nice.

- Thanks.
- How's it going? Justin.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.

- Hey there.
- Hey. Justin.

- Nice to meet you, man.
- Nice to meet you, too.

- What's your name?
- Man, this is awesome.

Everyone's sexually fluid.
Everyone's a possibility.

- Hi.
- Hey. Justin.

- I'm a hugger.
- Excellent.

- That's pretty cool.
- Hi, I'm Amber.

This is just wild.
Oh, God, help me.

- He's a cutie.
- Yeah.

- Yummy.
- ( chuckles )

- I'm really feeling Justin.
- Brew it, brew it.

I'm thinking brew it, baby.

You get some feelings,
you gotta let it all out,

but you can't tell him,
yeah, you gotta brew it.

- Yeah, brew it. Brew it.
- Brew.

We need to do, like,
a group icebreaker thing.

Ladies and gentlemen,
quick little pow-wow.

- Stand on the mother( bleep )
table.
- All right, all right,

all right, all right, all right.
So for me to be here being
a Middle Eastern woman,

it is like a huge deal.

I grew up in a very traditional
Arab Muslim household.

Being bisexual,
I was the black sheep
of the entire community.

This is something
that I'm representing for a lot
of unspoken individuals

that have gone through
what I'm going through.

Justin:
I'm feeling Nour for sure.

She had to be strong,
and I really dig that.

( whistles )

Amber:Nour is like my type
to the T.

She's beautiful.
Her energy is beautiful.

- Let's go!
- I'll take that.

- There you go.
- Energy's perfect.

All right, this is actually
a really big deal for me

because this is my way
of coming out to everybody.

( cheers and applause )

My family does not know yet
that I am bisexual.

( cheers and applause )

I grew up Catholic,
and it's gonna be weird,

obviously, at first
'cause it's gonna catch them
off guard,

but I truly believe
that we're called to love
each other

regardless of who you love
and what you do.

- This is you, too?
- Amber: Only to my father.

I dated a girl for almost
six years and he never knew.

- Ooh!
- Whoa.

Coming out was not easy.
Like, I was 23 years old.

Growing up in Columbus, Ohio,
I hadn't learned that being bi
was even an option.

You guys are gonna make it
so ( bleep ) hard.

Aww, thank you.

Max:
Even now, I'm not completely
secure about my sexuality.

And I feel like that's kinda why
I haven't had much success.

- What's up? I'm Remy.
I have something to say.
- What up, Remy?

Um, I feel like we all come
from, like,

really unique
individual walks of life,

and I'm just really excited
to get to know all of you

and just, like, maybe, like,
hookup or whatever.

( laughter )

"Or whatever."

Love you queer people.

( cheers and applause )

- All right, let's go.
- Whoo!

? Tumble like a lion
tangles in my hair ?

? Call me what you want
I don't care ?

Yo!

( clamoring )

What's up? Huddle up.
Come on.

What's up?

Welcome to "Are You the One?"

( cheering )

Welcome to the Big Island
of Hawaii.

I'm Terrence J,
and you know why you're here.

'Cause you all what?

All:
Suck at relationships!

- Yes, you really do.
- Fact.

We put you all through
a very extensive matchmaking
process.

Psychologists,
relationship experts,
interviews with your friends,

your family, and your exes.

And by the way, some of y'all
should not have let us speak
to your exes.

- Uh-oh!
- ( groans )

All right, some of y'all did
your exes very dirty.

- My heart.
- Kylie:I will love you
forever,

but if you ( bleep ) me over,

I will be petty enough
to ( bleep ) your family.

Now, you all may have noticed

we're doing things
a little differently
this time around.

For the first time
in "Are You the One?" history,

any one of the 15 people
standing next to you

could be your perfect match.

- I love it!
- Amazing.

Everyone in this house
is attracted to all
gender identities...

- Hey!
- ...and looking for true love,

no matter what package
it comes in.

Amber:
People do get surprised
that I am bisexual.

When I tell guys that,
they'll be like, "Damn,
that's hot.

Let's go out
and see what you can do."

I'm like, "Don't do that
'cause I may take your girl."

You guys are in a safe place

where you no longer have
to worry about your sexuality

being a boundary
to you making a connection.

Being from Mississippi,
you don't have a lot
of bisexuals

or sexually fluid people,
so being in this house,

it's gonna be much easier
to open up and be true
to who you are

because people aren't gonna
judge you.

So the big question is,

if the perfect person

was standing right in front
of you,

would you even know it?

Now, the good news is,
there's fewer of you,

so you'll only have to make
eight perfect matches.

But the bad news is,

since you can pick anyone,

your perfect match
may be harder to find.

There will be ten chances
to make eight perfect matches.

And if you can do that,

you will leave this island
with love and one...

All: Million dollars!

- ( cheers and applause )
- Money's money.

Danny:
This season,
it's gonna be ( bleep ) crazy.

From a naive, statistical
standpoint,

this is gonna be
345 times harder
than any previous season.

There are, like,
all these algorithms
and ( bleep ).

I've been doing my research.

There will be challenges...

( cheers and applause )

...designed to help you find out
why you suck at relationships.

( laughter )

I even brought in a professional
relationship coach, Dr. Frankie.

She'll be here from time to time
to help you along the way.

All right,
so get your game faces on,
people.

But let your heart
lead the way.

Now, I'll see you tomorrow
for your first challenge.

Kari:
My perfect match is here,
but it's gonna be crazy

because everyone is attracted
to everybody.

We have twice the options.
Like, I'm at a love buffet
and I'm ready to eat.

- Like, let's do it.
- And get on back to the house.

- I know y'all are ready
to turn up.
- Party, party, party.

( all cheering )

You don't even know
what you're asking for.
You don't even know.

- ? You don't even know,
said you don't even ?
- Uh, uh, uh, uh

? I think I do
I think I do ?

- ? Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
- ? I think I do
Hey!

Oh, my gosh.
There's so many decisions,

and there's so many
beautiful people.

There are so many
beautiful people.

I'm sitting next to one of them.
Oh, my gosh, he's beautiful.

Oh, me too.
I'm sitting next to one
of the most beautiful.

Like, low key,
high key.

- ( laughing )
- High key.

( clamoring )

- Yes!
- Okay.

I'ma totally love y'all,
everybody.

It's real, baby.
This is home-grown Mississippi
ass.

Home grown, baby.

People look at me,
and they be like, "Oh, my gosh.

You look like you stuck up."

But I do like to go mud bogging.
I do like to go hunting.

We go fishing.
I love getting down and dirty.

I'm a hard ass,
relationship-wise.

- Are you really?
- Relationship-wise,
I'm a hard ass.

- Like, I have so many walls
built up.
- Are we talking about under

- your shirt or under your
shorts?
- Like, I need somebody

that's gonna break
my walls down.

I'm single because I don't
let people win.

My real, like, first love
was with a girl

I was with for, like,
three years.

She could go talk
to another bitch, cheat on me,

but she always had me
coming back for her.

Then I realized, like,
that's not love.

If they can do that to you,
that's not love.

- Where is...
- Oh, Jenna and Kai, I think,
are hitting it off.

So we're gonna let them
do that.

( music playing )

- What's your thing?
- Um, I think my thing

is probably, like,
self-introspection

and psycho-analyzing myself
and others.

Is that healthy?
I don't know.

- I do a lot of that as well.
- Oh, really?

So I'm like, okay, cool.
You're, like, speaking to
my brain.

- I understand
the internal torture.
- Okay, right? Okay, yes.

I pride myself on being
very emotionally intelligent.

- And I'm a creepy dramatic
person.
- You are--

But I care so much
about being caring and truthful
with people.

Kai:
Physically, like,
she's very much my type.

And, like, you start talking to
me about emotional intelligence,

I'm like...

"Talk to me more."

It's, like, really weird that,
like,

one of the first conversations
I have with somebody

is to be like, "Yeah,
I'm analytical and, like,

I'm creative, and also I am
emotionally intelligent."

- Emotionally intelligent.
- And I'm like, bing, bing,
bing.

My buzzer is going off.
I'm like, uh, okay.

I've been a ( bleep ) wreck
for most of my life.

I'm a total ( bleep ) show.

Hurtful to say that you're weak,
and that is okay.

This version of myself is only,
like, as of the last couple
of years.

I lived my entire life
as someone else, yeah.

It's weird.
I am finally becoming, like,

the version of myself
that I actually like.

That's awesome.
I'm really happy for you.

- You're definitely a contender.
You're definitely a contender.
- Contender?

That's so weird.
That's so weird for me.

That's so weird for me
to wrap my head around.

For the first time in my life,
I feel attractive.

That's, like,
really big for me.

You're dope.
You're pretty dope.

- Yeah.
- I'm into this.
This is cool.

Uh, unexpected.
Are we gonna do some sort
of thing for your birthday?

Should we find a candle
or something?

I definitely need
a birthday make-out
at some point tonight.

I wonder who that will be.
Hmm.

I don't know.
I'll have to find somebody.
It's gonna be really difficult.

This is my first, uh,
experience with a trans person,

and it doesn't feel
any different.

Just a person.
Just a human being.

Nothing different.
I just think he's sexy.

( music playing )

- I guess we did.
- Okay, here's the deal.

I don't want to be a ho,
but maybe a kiss on the cheek.

- How's that?
- Oh, a kiss on the cheek?

? Find a way you like it

? That's the way I like it

Oh god... This is the part
where we're going to kiss on
camera.

Yeah.

? I love the way you walk

? I love to hear you talk

? I love the way
I love the way ?

-? You caught my eye
- You're so funny.

Hey, shut up!
Kai and Jenna right now.

Let them hit it off.

( clamoring )

- Go for it!
- Whoo!

Shut up.

? It's my empire

? Don't you try
to take me down ?

? I never retire

You can spank me,
if you want.

- Oh, my God, you're so bad.
- Ain't she?

Nour is a hottie.
Hot tamale.

- Let's do it.
- I'm definitely gonna go
for what I want.

And she is what I want.

- Oh, gosh. Okay.
- Yeah.

- Tell me about you.
- Okay.

Well, I grew up in
a very conservative household.

My dad wasn't part of my life.
When I was 14,

he got deported,
and that kind of change
a lot for me.

I felt like I had to grow up
at a very, very young age.

Ended up getting married
at a very young age.

I was married at, like, 21.

And that's not something that--
till this day, I'm like,

( bleep ) why'd I do that,
you know?

- Yeah.
- Why'd I ( bleep ) do that?

The way I was raised, like,
this is wrong,

this is right, this is kind of
what you have to follow.

And if you don't follow it,
then you're going against
the religion.

The reason why my marriage
didn't work out

is because I was being
suppressed

from being who I truly was.

My ex-girlfriend,
we were together for almost
six years.

- Oh, ( bleep )
- Yeah.

- Oh, my God, that's a long--
- We were together for five
and a half years.

- Holy ( bleep )
- We were going to get married
to each other.

- Yeah.
- Both my exes cheated on me.

- Like, both of them.
- Like how? Like how
the ( bleep ) can someone

- cheat on you?
- I don't know.

Amber:I'm always falling
for the cheaters,

and when I do fall for them
and I catch them, like, someti--

like with my ex-girlfriend,
I always forgave her.

I always forgave her,
I went back to her.

I just don't want to fall
in the same habit

and look stupid
and have my time wasted.
Like, I don't.

And it just gives me
trust issues and loyalty issues.

That's not the type of person
that I am.

If I'm with you,
I'm down for you.

I will go--
I will go above and beyond

to make sure that you
are happy.

I love her, I think.

She said... ( mouths )
love.

- Same. Feeling's mutual.
- But... what?

I said feeling was mutual.

- Yes.
- Yeah.

? First class
like I'm new in school ?

? I'm like an igloo
'cause I'm too cool ?

? I go cuckoo on these
new dudes that's hatin' ?

- You don't like--
- I love green tea.

No, I asked if you were into
piss play.

- No.
- Wow, that's really boring.

- Have you never pissed
on anyone?
- Oh, my God!

No, I'm so serious.

Not everyone is as open
and as much of a ho as I am.

I just happen to be, you know,
one of them.

- Oh, my God.
- Babe, you have to live
a little.

You've done it?

Okay, in the shower,
it's a little less crazy.

I like pushing the boundaries,
and that's kind of like the fun

of being obnoxious,
but when you get to know me,

it's like you can't hate me...

( laughing )

...Because I'm really charming.
( chuckles )

I've probably ( bleep )
more people

than everybody in this house
collectively combined.

- How many?
- I'm at like 900.

Yeah, but...

Whoa!

We all are here for a reason.
We suck at ( bleep ) love.

We suck at relationships.
We actually want to find
our person.

And, Remy, you better not
( bleep ) it up

because you just want to have
fun and be the biggest ho, okay?

I know most of the people
that I've had sex with.

I can't remember everyone.

But do you got a list?

Not a list, but you just go
through my Grindr.

I'm in denial
that I've ever had a Grindr,

so I delete it
and then make it again

- and then I delete it
and then I make it again.
- There's no shame.

- There's no shame.
- Kai:I gotta be honest
with you

I didn't admit that I like guys
until I transitioned.

And I think I just didn't want
to admit it,

'cause I was like,
"I'm already trying to figure
out my gender.

Now I gotta add this in to?
Ah! This is a lot."

And I can't help the fact
that I'm on testosterone
makes you horny.

Kai has this player energy
that I just kind of
vibe off of.

- I still feel like
I'm in this weird dream.
- Yeah, me too.

Like, what is happening?

Kai and Jenna...

I know you want to kiss me,

but I don't want to do it
in front of everybody.

...Cute. Um, that's my cue

to slide in, be...
a messy bitch.

It's early in the game.
Everybody's fair at this point.

Cheers.
( chuckles )

- Okay.
- What's up?

- Nour and I
are a perfect match.
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Why?
- Because we just have a lot
in common.

- A lot in common.
- Oh, my gosh.

It's day one.
What are you saying?

( overlapping chatter )

So I was originally trying
to get with Nour.

- Mm.
- I think she's, like, sexy.

But then Amber came in

and ( bleep ) swooped her
straight from under me.

And I was like,
"Well, ( bleep )."

Then there's Jonathan.

Then there's Jonathan.

- I'm very simple.
- No way.

Yeah, I am.

I think you're complex.
I think you're complicated.

- I think there's a lot to you.
- There's not.

( laughing )

I usually--
No one ever says that actually.

Like your first person
that you were like,
"( bleep ) yeah,

I could spend the rest
of my life with,

who would you look at first?"

- Oh, man.
- God, I looked at you first.

- No way.
- I did.

- He knows what he wants.
- ( chuckles )

Okay, well, I'm done.

- Uh, no, you're not.
- ( laughing )

( music playing )

Here's a fact.

- You can't see color
in your peripheral vision.
- Okay.

I'm like a software developer
and a data analyst.

I love knowing stuff.

- What color is it?
- Orange.

I think people see me
as being a square.

-I embrace that.
- Green.

But I got a little rogue in me,
you know?

I got a little slithery
underbelly.

Let's party, let's dance.

I gotta put on something
sluttier.

You know, I'm into
some freaky ( bleep ), man.

You know, like...
not foot stuff,

but other-- other things.

? We be living so dangerous

? We ain't like them

? No, no,
we ain't like them ?

? You're gonna catch us
walking on the edge ?

? We be living so

? Dangerous

? I like how it makes me feel

? I like how it makes me feel

? We be living so dangerous

? Make 'em bounce

? All this dirty money
in the city ?

Nour is entrancing.
She and Amber,

they're really vibing
with each other,

but I'm not gonna
not fight for Nour.

( music playing )

I can't wrap my head around
who the ( bleep ) could be
my person.

- I can't think--
- Tell me more about you.

I've been through some pretty
( bleep ) insane stuff.

- Yeah? I can tell.
- Yeah.

I felt like I had to grow up
at such a young age,

- so that's-- I feel like that's
the reason why...
- No, I feel that.

...that's the reason why I am
the way I am.

Or like the way I'm super
dominant sometimes.

I have, like,
not the best family setting.

Uh, basically, I just didn't
have my parents around.

Uh, so, I joined the military.

- Stop.
- ( bleep )

At 17 I joined the navy,
and I've been self-sufficient
ever since.

I spent six years active duty,
and that's when I fully started

experiencing and experimenting
with my sexuality.

- How was it?
- It was wild.

- Yeah?
- Yeah, definitely made me
the person I am today.

- Yeah.
-Hearing everything
that Justin is saying,

I'm loving it.
I'm loving the approach.
I'm loving the confidence.

On the surface, it's beautiful.
But on the inside, I know
there's a lot there.

I'm loving the fact
that he's super open

about how he feels
towards me.

I think that you are one of
the highest potentials here.

I think that we have
a connection.

I think so, too.

Nour hasn't had an easy life
at all.

Neither have I.
I'm all about that.
She's strong.

Let's go over, like,
away from everyone.

Okay, let's do it.

I'm starting to see Nour and
Justin hitting it off a lot.

I'm a good partner for
( bleep ) horror movies.
Like, I am.

I don't like that.

- Oh, I lost my shoe.
- ( chuckles )

I got the chance to explore
Justin,

and I got the chance
to explore Amber,

and I'm being tugged and pulled
by both, you know?

And it's--
you can't blame me.

? I can't help stop and stare

? Show me what you got

? I hope you came prepared
right there ?

( cheering )

It's challenge day.
Oh, man, I'm so excited
for the first challenge,

but I'm also super nervous
because there are some real
competitors in this house.

All right,
what's up, y'all?

It's time for your first
getaway challenge.

( cheers and applause )

But before we move on,
we're doing something
very special this year.

Here I have renowned
relationship expert

and your relationship coach.

I want you to meet Dr. Frankie.

( cheers and applause )

Hello.
I'm so happy to be here.

Thanks for being here.

Dr. Frankie, what are some
of the biggest

relationship obstacles
in dating today?

Fear of commitment,
fear of intimacy,

- lying, cheating,
not compromising.
- Uh-huh.

What about vindictive
or controlling?

- Oh, yeah.
- I don't ( bleep ) with that.

- I'm not controlling.
- These are the things

that could blow up
any relationship.

But whatever the obstacles are,

identifying them is the first
step to conquering them.

All right, so with that said,
here's how the first getaway
challenge will work.

I want you to pair up
with someone that you want to
go out on a date with.

And together,
you're going to navigate
the obstacles of dating.

The first piece of the challenge
are the hurdles
of relationships.

On the hurdles that you've been
through, you jump over them.

On the hurdles that you've never
had to deal with,

you go under them.

Next up,
baggage in relationships.

I want you to grab
three of those sandbags

that represent that past baggage
you've carried around
in relationships.

You're going to take
those sandbags from point A.

You're going to drop
those sandbags off at point B.

Final step, you're going to use
those tandem walkers,

and you're going to navigate
through the minefield
of relationships.

The three couples that finish
fastest will get to go on
a beautiful getaway date.

( cheers and applause )

You some quality alone time
with that person you've been
looking at.

And that puts you one step
closer to finding
your perfect match.

All right, time to pair up,
people.

- Okay.
- Got him.

( all murmuring )

My gosh.

Amber:I was hoping to pair up
with Nour.

I just don't like how Nour and I
had a deep conversation

and then-- I don't know.
I feel like-- I feel second.

I'm picking Justin
because he's just as athletic,

if not more than I am.

I don't know how competitive
Amber is.

Jenna, Kai,
you're first up to bat.

Ready, set, let's go!

Both jumping over
that fear of commitment.

Jenna going over
that intimidation.

I'm over here thinking
I have all of these problems.

Terrence J: Jenna going over
one night stands.

Who's gonna trust me?

Trust issues 'cause I don't
trust no mother( bleep ) body.

( laughter )

Trust issues, Jasmine.
I got you.

I'm loyal, I'm honest.
You ain't got nothing to worry
about, baby.

Both: Right, left, right.

Kylie and I are communicating
like we have been together
for five years.

Both:
Right, left, right, left.

Right, left, right, left.

Both:
Right, left, right, left.

We stay focused,
we stay focused.

- Right, left, right, left.
- Keep going, go, go.

Ew, ew, ew, ew.

( screaming )

( cheers and applause )

All right, I feel good about
this team right here.
Kari, Jonathan.

Ready, set, let's go.

- Oh!
- I fell over the first one,

-which was fear
of being vulnerable.
- Oh!

I'm going to say that my fear
of being vulnerable
never hurt that bad.

( bleep )
This is heavy ( bleep ).

- Oh!
- Oh, no. Oh, my God.

You gotta leave
that emotional baggage behind
in a relationship,

especially if it's the same size
as you.

Right. Okay, go ahead.
Left, right.

Oh, y'all is just
ganging through.

Amber and Nour were saying
that they were a match.

But maybe they're just sexually
drawn to each other.

And I think Nour and Justin
actually have a connection.

Y'all are cute.
I like this.

- Right.
- And there you go.
Crossed the finish line.

- Whoo!
- There we have it.

All right,
the results are in.

And in first place,
Basit and Kylie.

( cheers and applause )

I'm on cloud 99, okay?
Kylie and I are in sync.

All I want to do now
is get to know Kylie more.

She's giving me the strong
butterflies.

In second place,
Jasmine and Paige.

- Baby, baby, baby, baby.
- ( cheers and applause )

And finally, the last couple
going on the date...

Me and Kai are so emotionally
invested in each other.

So winning this challenge
is insanely important for us.

- Oh, man.
- Justin: It has to be
Nour and I.

We need to go on this date
to solidify that we are a match.

Coming in third place...

Me and Kai are so emotionally
invested in each other,

so winning this challenge
is insanely important for us.

- Oh, man.
- Justin: It has to be
Nour and I.

We need to go on this date
to solidify that we are a match.

Coming in third place...

- Justin and Nour.
- Whoo!

( cheers and applause )

Oh, I'm so over Nour.

Not really,
but I'm just saying that
'cause I'm mad.

- Whoo.
- Y'all are hyped up.

So hyped.

The rest of you staying behind
have some important work
ahead of you.

You'll have to vote
one of these couples
into the Truth Booth.

Now the Truth Booth is the only
way to verify

if a couple is a perfect match
or not.

It is vital that you guys
put the best couple in there.

All right, make it a good one.
Head on back to the house
and turn up.

( cheers and applause )

? Put your money
where your mouth is ?

? I heard you talking
now you seem no action ?

Cheers. Cheers.

We're cheering to
our first challenge

and our first
potential match.

( clamoring )

- Whoo!
- I said potential, okay?

I'm very proud of you
for saying that.

- I'm very proud of you.
- It took a lot.

Kari:
Amber's still here for Nour
after Nour didn't even pick her

at the challenge.
Amber's a cool girl, you know?

She needs to step up her ground
and be like, "No, Nour.

If I'm not your first pick,
then I'm not your second pick."

- My baby. Don't worry.
- ( laughing )

If we had a match in mind,
I swear.

It is hard because you have
this bond with one person,

and then the other person
comes through,

and you have another bond
with them.

And it's like you don't know
what to do.

Imagine you guys are a match,
I'll be tight.

- No, I just said that to him!
- I'll be tight.

I'll be like, what?

Who is your top gun right now?

I actually think Kylie
could be my match.

- Yeah?
- She likes to have fun
and she loves to party

and I'm like that too,
but she's also a little crazy.

I like a little crazy.
I need a little crazy.
You know what I mean?

- People are crazy.
- Yeah.

- Hey, sexy.
- I don't mean to interrupt.

Um, would you like to join me?
You can join me too,
if you want.

I have to do my testosterone.
Moral support is pretty awesome.

If you want to learn,
you can come.

Oh, no, you guys can just--
I want you all to bond.

It's cool.

I lived the first 20-something
years of my life

as a completely different
person,

and now I'm in
a new frame of mind,
I'm in a new body.

I got a brand new
$10,000 chest.

But I also feel
like I'm new in relationships.

Mine hasn't been very linear.
I was on testosterone

for about four or five months
and then I got off of it

for a couple of months.

'Cause I was a little bit
scared and also just like
feeling it out.

- Yeah.
- My identity is not linear
like male to female.

And so that's me unpacking
how masculine do I want
to become?

There's no guidebook to this.
I mean, there are literally
books on relationships

for heterosexual people
like "Dating for Dummies,"
blah, blah, blah, blah, right?

But how about
"Dating Trans People
for Dummies"?

That doesn't exist.

Now with this part.

Yeah, why do you think
I called you over?

I've done this so many times,
but like--

I'm already like, oh.

It's gonna be totally chill.

Do you want me to hold your--
you can't have it in your hand.

No, it's cool.
I just gotta psych myself up.

You got it.

Ow, small needle.

? I am swept away

Jenna:
Letting your guard down
and being vulnerable.

That's the only way to really
get to know someone.

Yes, you're done.

You are...

And I appreciate you.

( music playing )

This is kind of overwhelming.

She just said
all the right things.

And she makes me feel good
about myself.

I was hoping she's my match,
and I feel my cheeks
getting red.

Hoo.
( chuckles )

- Are you nervous still?
- A little bit.

- Yeah? You're red.
- I know.

You look cute
when you're red.

- Wait, wait,
don't bust your ass.
- Okay, no, no, no.

- No, no.
- I'll go first.

- Okay. Ooh.
- Whoo-hoo-hoo.

- Oh!
- ( laughter )

( yelling )

I meant to do that.

Jasmine:
You go on dates
when you win challenges.

And we going kayaking
in the ocean, y'all.

I go kayaking all the time.

Usually when I go kayaking,
it be in lake water.

But we in the ocean, bitch!

And I get to go snorkeling
and go up under the water
and see the little fishies.

all: Cheers!

I'm ready.
Like, let's do this.

? Just a young gun
with a quick fuse ?

- Yes! ( chuckles )
-? I was uptight

? Wanna let loose

I want to jump in
the ocean!

? Wanna leave my old life
behind ?

I don't really know how Nour
feels about me necessarily

'cause she obviously
has a thing with Amber,

but she chose me
on the challenge.

The connection we have,
I feel like it's gonna really
lead somewhere.

? Thunder

? Feel the thunder

? Lightning and the thunder

( music playing )

All right,
it's Truth Booth time.

I totally think Basit and Kylie
have a really good connection,

but with Justin and Nour,
I really feel like their
energies balance better.

Today's our first Truth Booth.

- All right, here we go.
I'm gonna do it.
- Go ahead.

The Truth Booth is the only way
to find out that two people
are a perfect match.

This is gonna be my only chance
to touch Justin's chest.

Danny:
Because there are so many
different possibilities

for each person in the house...

Justin, you were the hottest
thing that I saw walk through
the door,

but I think it's time
to send you guys in.

...It's really important
that we go with a couple
that we're confident in.

All right,
I'm gonna go with the same,

but he ain't the sexiest person
that walked through that door.

Ahem.

( laughing )

? Un, deux, trois

I know it's not a match,
and I want to clarify it now

so they can break up.

So, sorry, but...

? Babe I do

? Can't go nowhere
'cause I'm stuck to you ?

? If I got paid every time

Honestly honest,
serious note.

I have never dated somebody
that is similar to you.

I would be shocked
if you did.

- Shut up!
- I mean, who else is like me?

Hey, that's a fact. All...
( trills )

Being pansexual,
I've stayed very guarded

because when a girl
or a female-identifying person

finds out that you're attracted
to other men,

they immediately are like,
"Mm, that sounds like
you're just gay,"

which is a tired idea.

- I do perform in drag.
- Okay.

My drag name is Deon Slay.

Ooh! Deon Slay!

She is a hoot and a holler.
And she turns every party.

- I can't wait to meet
Deon Slay.
- You may meet her soon.

- I hope I do.
- How do you feel about that?

I feel like it's a vibe,
for sure.

I like it.
No, I like it, I really do.

I'm very intrigued,
and I'm-- I wanted something
different,

and this is that different.
'Cause I don't judge.

I don't give a--
do whatever the ( bleep )
you want.

That means a lot.
That means a lot.

Hey, I told you.
I'm accepting.

You just gotta be willing
to let it down.

You might be the one though.
You might be the one.

- Hey, you might be the one.
- You might be the one.

I feel extremely special.

Our communication
and everything we have
is so genuine and it's real.

Basit is amazing,
and we'll see what happens.

I feel like my heart beats
really fast.

( imitates rapid heartbeat )

And I don't want it to stop.

So I am a little new
to this community.

This is the first time
that I'm really feeling
kind of, you know,

actually explore and see
is there a possibility

of a romantic connection
with a woman.

But for me it's different
'cause I've been out

since I was 14
in, like eighth grade.

Living in rural areas,
it was harder

'cause I was the only one
out in the eighth grade.

- I was the only one.
- Yeah.

You know, it just taught me
to be more confident

with my sexuality
and who I am.

I don't know how I feel
about having somebody
who's so new to the community.

'Cause like, "Hmm,
you got me questioning.

Gotta make sure this is what
you want, baby."

So we might just be the perfect
friendship match, for real.

So we have completely
totally different experiences.

- Yeah.
- We have to be honest
with our family members,

and we have to let them know
this is who I am.

I can say this is like
best friends for life.

( chuckles )

In my past,
I dated mostly men.

I never felt, I guess,
comfortable to date women
as much

because of just like
the household that I was
raised in.

You know, you picked me
in the challenge over Amber.

Why did you do that?

Because I want you.

That's why I picked you
as a partner.

I want to see what this is.

You're like a good partner.
You're just mad supportive.

And I'm all about that.
Like I definitely need that.

Yeah. If it's one thing
that I feel like I bring
to the table,

it's a huge support system.

Like I will always be there
rooting you on,

telling you, like,
go after your dreams,
do it.

Like, how are we going
to do this together?
Like, let's do it. Come on.

Like, let's come up
with a game plan or whatever.

Just to make sure
that you reach your goal.

I think that Nour
is completely ride or die.

She says it,
and I believe the words

before they even
leave her mouth.

I've never really had, like,
a partner in a relationship.

You know, I've either been like
putting a lot in

or taking a lot out,
but never like equal.

And I feel like I can continue
to grow with you.

'Cause you already know
who you are.

I know who I am,
and I'm just ready
to grow together.

Come here.

? I

? Would have waited lifetimes
to find you ?

This date with Nour has
definitely strengthened
our connection,

and we're ready.
We're ready to be put in
the Truth Booth.

( music playing )

- I can't wait to see
the "no match."
- Oh!

You can't wait to see them
as a "no match"?

Oh!

I think you're really
( bleep ) hot,

and I'm upset about it.

I like Jenna,
but this is a hot house.

Jenna, chill.

( moaning )
