- Previously on "Temptation Island"...

- You made it!

- Wow, we're really on "Temptation Island."

- Welcome. - Anything goes,

you know, at this point.

- Oh, my... - You all came to the island

because you're at a crossroads. - This is crazy.

- You've embarked on this journey

where you're gonna date other people.

- I feel sick. Literally, I'm sick.

- The single men and women that you'll meet...

Yo, you seem very flirtatious.

I gotta keep an eye out on you.

- [ laughs ]

- ...are here because they're looking for love.

- Girlfriends wanna be wives, right?

- I have a problem with you already. [ laughs ]

- I pretty much talked to every girl.

- Do you think any of them are attractive, though?

- Sure. That is what it is.

- That's why you brought me here, right?

I don't wanna argue with you, but I wanna be honest with you,

so what the ----?

- I saw the girls. A lot of them are your type.

Can you really make the right decisions?

- I just don't want you to, like, do anything crazy...

- I'm not gonna do anything crazy.

- ...that you'll regret and that I can't forgive you for.

[ cries ] I can't do this.

* You're not gonna tempt me *

* You'll never forget me *

* You're not gonna tempt me, oh *

* Oh, oh, oh *

* You're not gonna tempt me *

* You'll never forget me *

[ whispers ] You're not gonna tempt me.

* There's something about us *

* That makes me nervous *

* What is this feeling *

- Gentlemen, let's go.

* That makes me lose focus? *

I'll see you boys soon. Let's go, boys. Let's go.

- [ sobbing ]

* If you feel the way that I do *

- ---- this. I'm going to bed.

- [ sighs ] ----

- [ crying ]

- Babe.

What's--Okay.

What's going on?

- [ voice breaking ] I'm just trying to be so strong,

and I'm listening to him, and I'm hearing what he's saying,

but I know him. I know him beyond this.

The minute he does something, I know that

I'm gonna overreact, and I'm gonna get out of character,

and that's gonna push him more away.

- Hmm. - That's one of my concerns.

It's not like they just have a house full of women.

We have a house full of men, too.

I know, like, it can go downhill from here.

***

- So they had their last dinner with their girlfriends tonight?

- When they walk in, we can be like, "Honey, I'm home."

- We should just, like, welcome them and give them a shot.

- Did they come from war? Why are we welcoming them?

[ laughter ] - You know, they might have

come from war. We don't know that.

[ indistinct conversations ] - Let's do it.

- We got a good night. - Hi, guys.

- Oh, wow, we got visitors.

- Hello! - Hey, guys.

- Come here! - Welcome!

***

- Cheers.

* I got all eyes on me, it don't matter what you see *

- Rick, you look scared. [ laughs ]

Rick, why you look so scared? - I am.

I'm out of my comfort zone right now.

I'm supposed to be living single,

and I'm in a relationship.

We're both risking a lot being out here,

and if I was meant to hook up with somebody else,

she'd be gone.

- Did you see your girlfriend? - Yeah, I saw her.

- And were you happy to see her? - It was emotional seeing her.

I really don't know how to, like, take this all in.

- Oh, so you're kinda like low-key telling me,

"I don't wanna talk about her." - [ sighs ] I kinda don't.

I don't wanna get all emotional and shit, so...

- That's okay. - Guess we'll go back to this

"get to know you better" right here.

- Don't say the word "better." That sounded weird.

I've got this bond with Ashley that I don't know

if I'll be able to make with any of these girls,

but I'm putting myself out there, and, you know,

just seeing what happens.

- I would love to connect with someone.

We also have to keep in the back of ourminds

you guys have girlfriends.

Casey is very goofy. He's corny,

but I think that he's just still a little--

little more of the reserved side,

so I think it'll take a little while to crack that cookie.

- Do you have a joke on hand that you always use

when someone wants to hear a joke?

- Ooh. - Because I do.

Do you wanna hear it?

- Let me--Yeah, let's hear it. - So...

- She got ass. I'm sorry. - Who?

- Y'all got backyard. Just saying. I'm sorry.

Excuse my French. - Is that, like,

on your list of, like-- - It's not on my list.

I'm just saying-- - Can you date a girl

that doesn't have an ass?

- I dated a woman that doesn't have an ass.

- Does your girl right now have an ass?

- She got some cakes. - [ laughs ]

When I'm vibing with someone,

you will know because I tend to bite my lip a lot,

Like, we could be in the kitchen

and he's talking about this sandwich,

and I'll be like...

- She got some cupcakes.

- But we got cakes.

- Anyways...

- Wedding cake? Or...

- We not talking about wedding cakes.

* Crazy, crazy *

* La-la-la-love you *

- I don't wanna talk about our guys.

- I don't wanna talk about our guys or the others.

- Don't cry. - I'm not.

- Hey! - Hello!

- Shit. - How you guys doing?

- How are you? [ indistinct conversations ]

[ laughter ]

- Do you think you had a connection

with anybody yesterday or no? - Uh, it's hard...

I don't wanna act as if I'm single,

and I don't wanna give anyone the wrong impression

that I'm here to do anything

that disrespects my relationship.

- Ashley-Ash. - What's up, Ashley?

- I'm in my feelings right now,

so it's hard for me to be, like, "Oh, hey, guys!"

- You ain't the only one processing.

- I think we should just take a shot together, all of us.

- If you insist. [ laughter ]

- I'm smart enough to understand that

this is an experience for me to be in my feelings

and come up out of that.

- To infinity and beyond. - Cheers!

- And I'm a boss-ass bitch, like...

We're single, mother----ers. Let's have fun.

- I'm getting lit right now.

- Oh, shit. Here we go. Okay. - Oh!

[ laughter ]

* With a little bump and grind *

- [ cheering ] - That's it!

- We should play a game.

- So you just count to 21, okay?

And the first rule is 7 is 14, 14 is 7.

- I'm actually a little bit nervous

and anxious at the same time

because I'm not really used to being single,

and I just really miss Casey.

- Who's starting? Who's starting?

- I'll start. - Okay.

- One. - Two.

- Three. - Four.

- Five. - Six.

- 7. - 14.

[ laughter ]

- I know I come off, like, real hard,

like, I don't give nobody no free, easy pass.

You may think that you come off as a mean person,

but I could see-- No, I'm a keep--

I'm being honest right here.

You got a big heart. I could see right through you.

Come back over here. We ain't got a chance to talk.

Give me some love, girl. What's up?

Mmm. How are you doing? Good? - I'm good. How are you?

- I'm good. It's good. I mean, I'm good. How--

- I'll be running away from you. - See, you scared of me, huh?

- I am, very. - You better not be.

- My intentions aren't to be focused on any guy here.

It's really just all about Rick and me.

- Whoa! - But K.B. is hot.

I'm scared of him.

- Come on over here and give me

some of that little chocolate love.

* Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh *

* It's winner take all *

* Standing out on the edge *

* Ooh *

- I really wasn't expecting to see Kate today

at the date selection.

I was kind of in the mindset that when we left,

that was goodbye for 30 days.

* Nothing's gonna break me down, it's winner take all *

- Hello, you guys. - Morning, Mark.

- Morning. - Hey!

- Okay, couples, it is time to choose your first date.

[ birds chirping ]

Ladies, we're gonna start with you.

Kate, who would you like to ask out?

- I feel bad. I wanna date one person,

and it's David,

so it's really hard for me to choose someone.

Dom, would you like to go on a date with me?

- Of course.

- I choose Dominique because we have very similar interests,

um, as far as fitness and health.

- All right, Ashley G., are you ready?

- No. - You're not ready.

Okay, but you're gonna do it anyway?

- Yes. - All right.

- Oh, God...

- Yeah, definitely awkward, but it's cool.

- K.B. - Big dude.

- All right, K.B., have fun. - Absolutely.

I'm definitely a man that gets what I want.

The worst thing that can happen is one of these guys

wanna kill me for taking their girlfriend from 'em.

And the best thing that can happen is I can

take their girlfriend, and we live happily ever after.

And that's what I expect to happen.

- Okay, Ashley H.

***

- Will you go on a date with me? - Yeah.

- Okay, come on.

- [ whispers ] Is that Deac? - [ whispers ] That's Deac.

- Deac's walk-up line was, "The only thing that's gonna get

in between you and your girl is this Deac."

This Deac's getting in between me and my girl. [ laughs ]

- Esonica, it's all up to you. Who's the lucky guy?

- Who do I want?

Hey.

- Absolutely. - Cool.

- Congratulations, Kareem.

Well, on to the gentlemen,

and, David, we'll start with you.

***

- Kari, you wanna go on a date? - Yeah. Thanks.

- Kari. - Well, we match, too.

- I think David chose Kari because she's not his type.

I think he would rather choose someone who's not his type

just to make me feel more comfortable.

- Rick, you're up. - All right.

- Who is the lady you'd like to ask out?

***

- Would you go on a date with me?

- Sure. - All right.

- [ chuckles ]

- Medinah. - [ singsongy ] That's me.

- Casey, you're next up.

***

- Payton, would you like to go on the date?

- Yes. - All right.

- Payton. - I'm not surprised.

She kinda looks like me, and she's short,

and he really like short girls, so I literally feel like

I have to puke, like this whole entire time.

Maybe she's, like, the most confident girl ever.

And I'm not.

- Gavin, are you ready?

- I think so. - Okay, good luck.

- [ whispers ] Oh, man.

***

Toneata. - Yeah?

- Will you go out with me? - Yes, I would love to.

- Okay, yeah. Okay.

- Gentleman. You let her walk first. I noticed that.

- Lucky you.

- Now we have eight couples for our first date.

Wanna get some reaction from you guys.

David, what was it about Kari that you felt connected

and why you chose her?

- I mean, I actually didn't have a connection with her,

to be honest, so my thinking on the first date was

to choose someone that I really didn't have

the opportunity to have a one-to-one conversation.

- Good idea. - I say that

we really don't have a connection,

but it's really not the truth.

It was just obviously a weird situation for me

knowing that my girlfriend is sitting right next to me.

- Rick. - [ chuckles ]

- What did you think of Ashley's choice?

- Uh, Ashley's choice?

[ laughter ]

No, I'm not hatin'. Guy has a nice smile or whatever,

so, you know, I'm not handcuffing her.

- [ gasps ] - Shit.

- If he's not handcuffing, someone else will, so...

- [ whistles ] - Ooh.

- Then here we are. - Okay.

- Handcuffs are not always a bad thing.

- They're not. You know, sometimes they're fun.

- She turned it up. [ chuckles ]

- Rick basically said that we were single,

and it just stings. Everything he says today just stings.

It hurts.

- I know you're gonna have a great time on your date,

and I'll see you soon, okay?

- I just don't wanna even look at his face, 'cause I'm scared.

I want him to, like, be a little bit more emotional.

It's like I wanna know that you're, like, jealous

that I'm going on a date with another dude.

[ voice breaking ] I just wanna trust him

and know that, like, he wants to be with me

'cause I wanna be with him.

* Ah, ah-ah, oh-oh *

* Ooh, ah-ah, yeah, you and me love like savages *

- You had a long day? - No, I'm just, like,

drained emotionally. I need a minute, you know?

- I did not expect today to go how it went.

Rick completely curved the ---- out of me.

- We gon' take your mind right off of that.

- Please do.

[ laughter ]

What size shoes do you wear?

- 13.

- 13? - Mm-hmm.

- Oh, my God.

[ laughter ]

* Treat you like a queen *

- I'm definitely ready to give Ashley what Rick can't give her.

Rick should be worried, and I know he's worried.

***

- I'm not the loudest voice in the room.

- She's not. - I'm not.

I'm not always the loudest voice and...

Thank you.

- It's beautiful, by the way.

- The single guys--we don't really know what you girls

are going through and what's going on.

- Yeah, it's so hard. That first girl that Casey

introduced me to that's, like, his friend,

I later found out that they slept together.

- If he didn't tell you, like, "Six months ago,

couple years ago, we hooked up," if he didn't say that to you,

that's--is he hiding something? - What his feelings are

is that his past shouldn't affect anything

in our relationship and feels like they shouldn't be a threat,

but I do. I feel uncomfortable, and he doesn't understand that.

Ben is really nice. I feel like he also has the respect level

that I appreciate.

He's not making me feel like I have to be, like,

interested in him and, like, interested in dating him.

- Cheers to having fun tonight.

[ all cheering ]

- You have to believe in Heaven after seeing this.

* Turn it up with me, everything lit *

* Everybody's sippin', getting fit *

* Fellas better find yourself a chick *

* Ladies, pick a man, we gon' turn it up *

* That's a plan * - [ all cheering ]

- I love exciting things. Like, I will,

like, jump off cliffs and, like--

- Even if you know, like,

that you could possibly, like, be paralyzed--

- But you're not supposed to think that way.

- I just don't, like, wanna put myself in the position

to get hurt if I don't need to.

- I feel like I'm literally the complete opposite of you.

- So did you have, like, a tough time picking

when you first-- - Um, I'm gonna be real.

It was kinda tough, but you got game. You--You slick.

- You got game. That's why you picked me for the first date.

- Yeah, I guess so. - We both got

a little bit of game, but you were like,

"Let me see what her game is like."

- I wanna see what you about. - I'm so excited.

- Yeah, I'm excited, too, so that's my reasoning

for choosing you.

- I enjoy getting to know a man. We're vibing.

If Rick really is interested in me,

it's gonna be a great time. Ashley should be worried.

- And you bad, so... - So that's why.

- Yeah, you bad.

[ cheering, indistinct conversations ]

- We got a birthday in the house.

- So today is my birthday.

[ women cheering ]

- Whoo!

- All right. - It's my birthday.

[ all cheering ]

- Things just got out of hand really, really quickly.

[ cheering ] * Shake it out, little mama *

* See you looking thick in the cut, little mama *

* And every night, we hooking up, little mama *

***

- Like, I'm really trying to be a good boyfriend,

but I really don't know what to do.

There's a lot of twerking going out there.

And who doesn't appreciate a nice twerk?

I mean, I know Ido.

* Now I know you like, what it gon' be *

[ cheering ]

* I just wanna see the way you move *

* Party all night, I don't even move *

- Mine! - * Got me in the groove *

* Checking out my moves, I already knew *

- Hey! It's your ----ing birthday, dog.

[ cheering fades ]

- Do you know handle this?

- Oh, I do.

- I think you do. - I do.

I'm trying to keep this very PG.

Your eyes are saying rated "R," though.

- Mm-hmm.

- Rick has already explained that he's single,

so I'm definitely willing to, um, embrace it all.

- How much do you wanna feel guilty about?

That's the question. - Handcuffs are off, right?

- I ain't handcuffing you. - Ain't no--

- That's what you said. - Ain't no handcuffs.

- [ laughs ]

Well, that's a big bed. It look like it can fit two.

- Stop it!

- I got you. - Wow.

- I got you.

* Baby, I ain't down, that's dangerous *

- I have no idea what we're about to do.

* Ah-ah-ah *

* Dangerous *

* Ah-ah-ah *

* Dangerous *

- Loves it. Loves it. - Right?

- I'm getting in my bed. - Can I get in your bed?

- You can get in my bed. I don't care.

- Then I'm-a come back and undress.

- My feelings are all over the place,

and I never thought that I would be tempted

and not be able to control myself.

What did I get myself into?

[ switches clicking ]

You're a problem.

- Me and Ashley G. are vibing.

I'm doing what a single man does.

I'm enjoying my experience.

Handcuffs.

- [ gasps ]

- It was off. And you ain't cuffing her.

I cuffed her.

- Oh, my God. I can't believe... [ sighs ]

- She wasin a relationship.

It's over now. I'm the captain now.

***

- Oh, my God.

***

* What is done is done *

***

* No turning back now *

- Oh, my God, babe. - [ crying ]

- I didn't expect anyone to hook up on the first night,

but I also had heard that, you know,

Rick has done a lot of things in the past.

So I felt like it was her time to get back at him a little bit.

And I'm like, oh, shit, if she can do this already,

then does that mean David can do this already?

This is real.

[ birds chirping ]

***

* Ooh, I say, it's a perfect, perfect day *

- Whoo! * It's a perfect, perfect day *

- Now we're turning up.

- Whoo! Oh!

- Whoo! - No hands!

- Oh, my God! Hey. - So my hands are 10 and 2.

- Wait, is that how you normally drive?

- Look at these guys.

- Whoo! - I came in today

with no expectations for this date.

But it is a little bit scary to realize

that Ashley's doing the same.

I don't know. I just wish Ashley the best of luck

and hope that she's still thinking of me,

just like I'm thinking of her.

- I feel like I'm at a point in my life where

lately I've been questioning the traditional way

of doing anything, really.

- Mm. - So with relationships...

- Absolutely. - Lately, I've been like,

if you like you need someone else

to give you something that I can't, then go get that.

- Maybe bringing somebody into the bedroom or what?

Is that what you're thinking? Like, I don't know.

- I mean, I'm definitely open to that.

- You'd be open to that. All right. Okay.

- [ laughs ]

- Ashley came up with the whole list

of rules that, you know, of what I couldn't do.

No kissing or touching, massages.

As for me, I didn't put any rules on her.

I just wanna see how she acts.

* Don't kill my vibe, baby *

* I'm walking on the moon, oh, oh-oh *

- [ laughs ] - Oh, yeah, hold on tight.

[ laughter ]

- You're just like, "I'm not even asking.

I'm just doing it." - You need it. You're burning.

- Thanks for picking me, Ash.

- You're fun, and that's what I need right now.

I just need to laugh instead of being upset and stuff.

- Yeah. - I definitely feel weird

that I'm in a relationship

and going on a date with somebody else.

After the date selection, I definitely was

a little bit insecure, but Deac is here to kind of distract me

from, um, being upset.

- I feel as vulnerable as anyone can ever feel.

And Gavin choosing somebody

that's completely different from me

makes me insecure, of course.

- You're not close enough. You should be, like, here.

Waking up this morning, I felt alarmed

when seeing K.B. laying next to me.

I just wanna make sure that K.B.'s the right guy now

after last night.

***

- So what is your-- What is your man like?

- It's really just that I want him to open up more.

- Do you see yourself marrying him?

- I do. - Do you?

- I do. - All right, then.

- I mean, I-I love him. This is my, like, last attempt

to make sure, like, that we work.

- Yeah. - I also know that two, like,

really amazing people might not be right for each other,

because that's what happened in my last relationship.

- Yeah. - Um...

I haven't really told anyone, but, like,

I was married before.

- Oh, were you? - And so, um,

I don't wanna go through that again.

Like, I know how that feels. - Of course, of course.

- I'm scared.

I'm scared that I'm saying how much I wanna be with him,

and David's saying something different.

- Oh, we're the only ones that didn't get in.

- Do you wanna go?

'Cause my life is, like, more meaningful with him.

* Tell me you want me *

* Tell you I want you *

* Maybe this is how it begins *

- First of all, I said that we didn't have a connection.

- I know. You did. - And I'm sorry about that,

'cause, like, that's not true, because, like, I thought

we had, like, a connection, you know?

Like, I'm more than happy to tell you that.

- I honestly feel like you've opened up a lot, so...

- Well, that's what I'm hoping I'm doing.

- You're doing a great job. [ laughs ]

- I think it's important to live, like, separate lives.

You know? - So pretty much, you are

looking for a little bit more independence, I guess.

- I love a girl that has, like, an alpha female personality

that can hold her own.

So I definitely wanna be with someone that's independent.

If there was ever an experience to, like,

help us get clarity, like, this--this would be it.

- Aah!

***

- You can sit closer.

- Oh, wait, wait. I'm allowed to get closer?

- You know, like arm's length. Arm's length.

Enough space.

Not too much.

While I'm here, I should have a good time,

but I can't help but to think about Gavin.

'Cause I'll be pissed as shit if Gavin,

first date, lovey-dovey with "Toti-anna,"

"Tonita"...

Toneata, I'll be mad.

***

- So were you expecting, like, to have sparks immediately,

like, with somebody in the house?

- Yeah. I mean, sometimes love happens like that.

What do youwant?

Like, do you think your girlfriend is the one?

- As of right now, I can't answer that question,

not with an honest "yes."

- Yeah. - So we're still evaluating.

- Well, I understand.

***

- Wow, looks, like, super mystical up there,

like, the hills.

- I feel like you're taking me to secretly propose.

- Is that--Is that what it is? - That's what it feels like.

- I think that's what you're hoping for, but...

Wow. - [ chuckles ]

- Medinah definitely has me feeling tempted.

I know I love Ashley, but sometimes

I do think maybe there is

somebody out there better for me.

- Why did you pick me for your first date?

- I'm a sucker for a smile, a nice smile.

Then maybe the ass. Maybe the... [ laughs ]

But hold up. Are you the type to, like,

if I was to check out another woman with you,

like, would you be, like, offended by that?

Like, is that something-- - I don't think so.

But I'm totally fine with, like, complimenting...

- Okay. So you're secure. - Very secure.

- Okay. So let--Why not?

Let's appreciate it together without getting in trouble.

- Do you get in trouble now? - Yes.

- [ laughs ]

- [ imitates Medinah's laugh ] That laugh.

I feel like we connected on another level

that I hadn't thought that was again happen before,

but I'm not trying to rush anything.

I'm just vibing out.

But for now, you know, I like--I like it.

- First dates can be really awkward, though.

- First dates could really be awkward,

but there's no awkward moments with you.

- [ laughs ]

It's been so much fun hanging out with you.

- Absolutely.

- I enjoy it, and I wanna do this more.

- But I'm-a tell you this, though.

Did you expect to find

a connection so soon with somebody?

Coming here, did you expect that?

- No, I most certainly didn't expect to connect with anyone.

I feel like especially after...

Rick made that comment.

- That he wasn't handcuffing you?

- He wasn't handcuffing me. - Pretty much made it like,

she can go do whatever she wanna go do.

- Basically.

He freed me. - Right.

* You know that I want you *

* So come a little closer *

- But how about we stop talking about Rick

and you take that shirt off and get comfortable?

- I can feel that.

Yeah.

* I wanna get to know you *

* And everything about you *

* You're driving me crazy *

- I really do like K.B. I feel like I put my claws into him.

He understands that I'm very emotional,

and he respects that,

and that's what makes me feel safe and secure around him.

I just wanna see more of that.

You making it easy to move on. Here you go.

Yeah, definitely.

- I had an amazing time.

- I want kisses.

* You know that I want you *

***

* Yeah, you know that I want you *

* Let it rain on me *

* Let it, let it rain, let it, let it rain on *

* Let it, let it rain, let it, let it rain on me *

- Do you feel better or worse?

- Things happen. I'm tempted. I've been tempted,

and I didn't expect it to be that.

- Why are we doing this? [ scoffs ]

- I know, right? Like, why did I sign us up for it?

- Did you chase all the guys away? What happened?

Hi, girls. - [ laughs ]

- How are you? - Good. How are you?

- I just wanna drop by and to let you know that

tonight is gonna be your first bonfire.

***

- I'm the one that brought us here,

and I didn't have to...

[ voice breaking ] completely change the path

of our relationship.

But I don't even know if he's doing anything stupid.

***

- I'll see you guys tonight, okay?

- Thank you.

- Bye. - Thank you. Bye.

- Bye.

Are you worried about anything that they're gonna see?

- I'm not worried about what they'regonna see.

- I am.

- How you feel?

- Guilty.

[ flames whooshing ]

I feel like I'm about to go walk on hot stones.

I don't even want to, like, watch the video,

but at the same time,

I feel like I need to watch the video

to see what he's doing to either free myself

from all the guilt or re-evaluate

how I handle myself.

- Welcome to your first bonfire. This is the place

where we'll get you away from the craziness of the villa

and the distractions of the single guys

and a chance for us to check in

and talk about what's going on in your experience.

It's also the place where you'll get a glimpse

into your boyfriends' experience on the island as well.

So before we get into it,

how has this experience been for you?

Ashley G., have you had any revelations

about your relationship?

- [ sighs ] I thought I was mentally prepared

to fight off all temptations, and I thought that,

you know, I was coming here specifically

to determine if Rick was loyal to me,

and unfortunately, I'm seeing that it's much harder

to fight off temptations.

It's--It's been eye-opening.

- Eye opening is exactly what it's supposed to be.

All right, so here's how this works.

Each time you're at bonfire,

I'm gonna offer you a chance to see clips,

each one specifically selected for you,

showing your boyfriends in their experience on the island.

Here's what you need to keep in mind, you guys.

It's a moment in their experience.

You don't see what led up to it.

You don't know what happened after it.

So you'll see and hear things that may be difficult for you,

but hopefully, it'll provide perspective

on your relationships.

Are you ready?

- Mm-hmm. - No.

- We're gonna start with you, Ashley H.

- I'm super worried. I'm scared to see

what he could possibly bedoing without me around.

[ cheering ]

[ hooting and shouting ]

[ indistinct conversations ]

[ cheering ]

[ laughter ]

***

- [ crying ]

- What are the tears about? What did you see, Ashley?

- Someone grinding up on my man. Two people, not just one.

[ sniffles ] I literally wanna scream so loud right now.

[ sniffles ]

- If you could scream, what would you be saying?

- ---- you.

[ crying ] It's not what I expected at all.

- Did you guys establish any sort of guidelines or rules?

- Yes.

- Did he break any of them in that?

- I mean, he didn't touch them,

but he let their asses rub up all on him so...

- Do you think someone else is gonna tempt him away from you?

- [ crying ]

- Do you think you're good enough for him?

- [ whispers ] You are. You're too good for him.

- [ sniffles ]

Well, at this point, I feel like I've been better than him--

better than that because that's disrespectful to me.

- You're right where you need to be in this process.

***

- [ sniffles ] - Okay, Kate, you're up next.

***

- I'm--First of all, I said that we didn't have a connection.

- I know. You did. - And I'm sorry about that,

'cause, like, that's not true, because, like,

I thought we had, like, a connection, you know?

I'm more than happy to tell you that.

- I honestly feel like you definitely,

even just in the few days of being here,

I feel like you've opened up a lot.

***

- What does that make you feel?

- I mean, he--he went in front of everyone the other day

and said he chose her 'cause they didn't have a connection,

that they didn't speak, and now he's saying something different.

[ voice breaking ] So it already shows

that he's not exactly the most trustworthy person,

even with his words.

And it seems that he's opening up to other people,

and something I've been asking of him for a very long time.

It seems like he's choosing to do that

with other people rather than for me.

It's really hard to see that.

I was actually really excited just to see his face tonight.

And it's just really hard to see him sitting

just so--so close and so happy with somebody else.

- You can't control their behavior,

but you canlook inward to your own growth.

Esonica, you're next.

- Oh, boy.

***

- Esonica can be very...emotional.

Like, one of her favorite quotes are,

"You're annoying me right now. I don't know why."

But I'm like, what?

- Do you think your girlfriend is the one?

***

As of right now, I can't answer that question,

not with an honest "yes."

- Well, that's some deep shit.

[ chuckles ]

[ sighs ]

What am I supposed to say now? - In the short time I know you,

I know that whatever you say is gonna be honest.

so what--say what's in your heart.

What do you feel?

It was not my choice to come here.

Definitely not my choice to sit down

and see how bad my boyfriend gonna talk about me.

So that's a problem.

The fact that he chose to pick someone completely different

from who I am and then to talk about the way

he does not like me

definitely is rubbing me in the wrong way.

- We don't know the before or the after,

but in that clip, that wasn't particularly loving. I get it.

Ashley G.

Are you okay? - Yeah.

- You ready to see this?

- [ whispering ] Yes.

[ sighs heavily ]

Oh, my God. I'm not gonna cry.

[ sniffles ]

[ flames crackling ]

- Wow, I feel like the view

just keeps getting better and better.

- I know. - Looks like super mystical

up there, like the hills. - I feel like

you're taking me to secretly propose.

- Is that what-- Is that what it is?

I think that's what you're hoping for, but...

- [ laughs ] - Nah.

- [ chuckles ]

- What'd you see, Ashley?

- He's holding hands with her.

But I can't-- I can't get upset with it.

It's just like...

- Holding hands is appropriate while walking across rocks.

She proposed. He didn't bite. That's all good stuff.

But it still brings tears to your eyes.

Are the tears about his actions

or are the tears about how you'refeeling?

- If that's the worst clip from this experience,

then I have guilt for how I've behaved,

and...now he has to sit and watch that.

***

- It's a lot to think about, a lot to process.

Remember, you guys are a support group for each other.

That's all I got for you guys. Thank you.

You're free to go.

- [ whispers ] Thank you. [ sniffles ]

I kinda ----ed everything up.

***

I'm definitely worried about what he's gonna see.

- [ crying ] - You okay?

- I don't wanna be here.

[ continues crying ]

***

***

- If I see Kate doing something physically with somebody,

for me that's just it. That's a wrap.

We both have a clear understanding

that the other person is gonna walk away

and has-- you have to respect that.

- I don't think I'm gonna see much.

She's not gonna, you know, do anything crazy wild

to disrespect me in any way, so...

***

- Going into the bonfire, this is kinda like a surreal moment.

It's like, oh, shit.

I am nervous right now. I'm hoping that

I don't leave this bonfire feeling worse

than I did before I came in.

- Gentlemen, welcome to your first bonfire.

Gavin, what do you think is going on at the ladies' villa?

- At night, like, when I go back to my room,

that's when I think about Esonica

and I wonder, like, what's going on,

and I wonder if they're having as much fun as we are.

- [ chuckles ] - Or if it's clean

as some of our fun is?

- Is your fun clean so far?

- I don't know. From the outside looking in,

it can look bad, but...it's clean.

- Now I'm gonna be honest with you.

Some of the things that you'll hear

and you'll see here could be difficult.

But the point of this is

every emotion you feel at bonfire

is an answer to a question about how legit

is your relationship? - Okay.

- Casey, we're gonna start with you. Ready?

- I think so. I'm confident.

***

- The first girl that he introduced me to

that's, like, his friend,

I later found out that they slept together.

- If he didn't tell you, like, "We hooked up,"

is he hiding something? - What his feelings are

is that his past shouldn't affect anything

in our relationship and feels like

they shouldn't be a threat, but I do.

I feel uncomfortable, and he doesn't understand that.

***

- What did you hear, Casey?

- Um, I heard the same thing that I've heard

a lot of other times, but it was a little bit different

hearing it not being in the conversation

and just watching it and seeing her share that

with someone else, especially a male.

I just don't understand her insecurity sometimes, so...

- Apparently, it's something that really bothers Ashley.

At what point are those friendships

less important than Ashley feeling comfortable with you?

- I definitely 100% wouldn't wanna lose Ashley

over anything like that.

In the past, how I'd acted towards it is

it's only something that she can fix.

I've never done anything to her whatsoever,

but she might still think there's reason to doubt me.

So I wanna prove myself,

and I do want her to also be a little bit more trusting

and confident in our relationship.

I'm already thinking a lot, so, and seeing what I can do better.

- Thank you, Casey. I appreciate that.

David, you okay? - Good.

- You're up next. - I'm ready.

***

- I'll put a little bit on your back.

- [ chuckles ] - You need it. You're burning.

- I know.

- Do you see yourself marrying him?

- I do. - Do you?

- I do. - All right, then.

I mean, I love him. This is my, like,

last attempt to make sure, like, that we work.

- Thoughts? - I mean, yeah, you know,

having a guy put suntan lotion on her body,

I mean, I'm not jumping up and down about that,

but, um, at the same time, it seemed pretty innocent.

You know, I wanna see her excited

to get out of her comfort zone, and that's gonna help her grow,

and that's obviously gonna help our relationship.

It's only a positive, so... - There isthe possibility

that the growth that you find here

makes you grow into a different relationship.

- A lot of things can happen at "Temptation Island,"

so, um, there's risk on her side,

and obviously there's risk on mine as well, so...

- Okay. Gavin, you ready?

- Those first two clips got me a little nervous now.

I can't lie. I'm ready.

***

[ clears throat ]

***

- If your boyfriend was to do something,

how would that make you feel?

Like, this is--he's around 12 beautiful women, right?

- That'd be sad. Like, why would he do that?

- Have you guys ever been in a situation where

it was like you may have caught him

in a certain situation? Or, like, has it been--

- Ugh! Well, he's a dude, right?

- Oh, I don't know what that means.

- You know what I'm saying? - There's good guys.

There's bad guys. - You know what they say?

Like, you can't have your cake and eat it, too.

- Okay.

***

- What's that about, Gavin?

- To me, it seems like Kareem was trying to pry a little bit.

Um, I kinda like the way Esonica answered the question.

I don't think she gave away too much information.

She's still respecting the relationship,

at least the privacy of the relationship.

- Looks like she was holding it down.

- Yeah, definitely.

I'm actually proud of what I saw with her.

- All right. Rick?

- What's going on? - You know,

I only know you a short time, but I feel like I feel you.

- Yeah, you feel me? [ chuckles ]

- Feel nervous. - Yeah, I'm a little nervous.

- That lets me know you're kind of in love, I think.

- Yeah, of course. - All right.

Let's take a look.

- All right. Let's do it.

[ exhales deeply ]

***

- What did I get myself into?

You're a problem.
