-Welcome to "Love Island USA."

After talking with KC, Aniya is getting cold feet,

so she's asking Trinity for advice.

Forget advice. You should be borrowing her boots!

-[ Sighs ] Okay. Period.

-Bitch, let me tell you what happened.

-Yeah, 'cause I'm like, "What the fuck?"

-Okay, so we're having the conversation

and we're going through it.

It kind of, like, goes into a full circle,

not really making sense.

I'm telling him why I was initially upset.

He was like, "You can't expect me

to be serious 100% of the time."

I said, "No, I want you to be serious for five minutes."

-Yeah. -That's exactly what I said.

I feel like he's taking more of, like,

when I'm talking to him, saying, as in, like,

oh, I'm restricting him from exploring.

And I was like, "I have not said one time

you should not explore.

I've never said that. I literally never said that."

-If he does want to talk to Sol or whatever,

just let them.

See how that moves.

If he likes it, he likes it. If he doesn't...

That's the only way to test

if y'all really have something good.

Like, that's how me and Bryce had our thing.

-You can talk to Sol right now. Like, I don't give a fuck.

-Yeah. -I never once fucking said

that you can't talk to anyone in this fucking Villa.

I never even said that to the girls.

-We know you're going through the most right now,

so we just want to check in with our boy.

-Bro, her main thing was me not being serious.

-Like -- As in, like, just you as a person?

Just -- You're not a serious person with her?

-She's talking about the conversation.

She said she felt like I wasn't genuine.

She was like, "Yeah, I feel like, um, you know,

you really want to be..."

Not I really want to be with her, but, "You want to pursue."

And I stopped that, and I was like, "No.

I just kind of valued you more." -Yeah.

And I don't think that was getting through

to her head at all. She was basically like,

"I don't care if you talk to anyone else.

I don't care if you're open and stuff like that. I understand."

And I was just like, "I don't want you to feel

a certain type of way if I were to talk to someone."

-Yeah. -I feel like the conversation

comes from her just wanting to lock you up

and make sure you're tight. -Yeah.

-If she was just completely like, "You know what, dude?

If you really want to talk to Sol, you should do that."

If she said that to you, you'd be like,

"Now I don't want to talk to her."

-Yeah, you probably would be less likely to want to do it.

-That's what she was saying. It was off-putting

because I couldn't read if she was, like,

trying to be, like, funny.

it's kind of a tricky situation.

I'm already over the whole Sol shit anyways.

-Yeah. All you can do is be honest.

All you can do is say how you feel.

And if, like -- However she takes this,

as long as you were, like --

listened to her and you just said how you feel,

then when, you know, someone does come,

then you're like, "Damn, I actually want to see

if there's something there."

-So what are you gonna do? -Hm.

-Like, how are you gonna move from now, like, with that?

-I don't know. Because I really like KC.

-Yeah, you do.

-I just don't like being upset with him.

Like, I really don't. -I know. It sucks.

-He's frustrating the fuck out of me.

I'm not even playin'.

I really wish I could go through KC's brain

and figure out where all these issues came from.

Because I have no freaking idea!

If he wants to do what he wants to do, I'm-a be a bad bitch.

And I'm-a bask and be myself

and wake up every morning and do my makeup and look sexy as fuck

stepping out of this Villa.

I'm just confused how this shit got full circle.

-I'm confused, too, bitch. I don't even know what --

-You should have seen my face up there.

I was dead fucking confused.

Bro, that's why I'm like --

I feel like I got bamboozled up there, bitch.

-Yeah. Low-key. What the fuck?

But, you know, men so damn good with their words sometimes.

They be like, "Whoa." -I swear.

It was an Uno Reverse Card in that bitch.

'Cause I'm like why -- why am I being sympathetic?

-Yeah. What the fuck?

-She's very beautiful. Whatever.

But it's, like, more mindset.

-Yeah. -You know what I mean?

I think me and Aniya clicked,

but I don't think, like, click in the sense of, like --

-You might need someone a bit more...

-You and Kayda. You know what I mean?

-Yeah. Me and Kayda are so different.

I think that's why it works. -Yeah.

-She wants me to be serious all the time.

-She's very chill and serious.

-Yeah. -Do you know what I mean?

-I could do that, but that shit's not fun.

It just seems like a fucking job at that point.

I don't really feel good that, like,

she didn't really understand where I was coming from.

I can't change myself for you, even if I wanted to.

Like, this is me.

I can't fake who I am to just make you feel comfortable.

-Can I interrupt y'all? -What?

-Can I interrupt y'all? You wanna go talk?

-Me? Yeah. -Yeah.

Catch up on our Bombshell stuff.

-Oh, my God! Yes! -We'll be right back.

-Sorry. -Go upstairs?

-Ah. Let's go.

-Everybody here, 10 out of 10.

-I agree. -Nobody's ugly here.

-I think we all are.

[ Laughter ]

-Ah. I miss being a Bombshell.

I feel like, since we've been here for a while,

we're not even Bombshells anymore.

How's everything going? -It's going good.

Um, getting adjusted to being in competition with another guy.

-Such a weird situation.

-Yeah. We had the conversation this morning.

I was like, "You do what you want to do.

I'm going to explore, as well, have conversations."

I think it almost made her realize

I wasn't gonna be in her back pocket.

-Does it bother you?

-I mean, it bothers me.

But also I'm reminding myself that, you know,

she didn't choose to be in the couple.

She kind of got placed in it because America saw,

you know, a little bit of a connection.

And, like, I don't blame her for any way she goes about things.

What she's told me and, like, the nightly kisses,

the cuddling and all that.

-I feel like you're right where you want to be.

-I know, I know. -Kenzie and Corbin,

I don't think they'll last much longer,

especially if Melanie settles into, like, the new couple.

I think they'll, like, build their connection,

and then it'll push Kenzie back to you more.

-I'm definitely still happy with Kenzie.

I know they're gonna have to talk things out,

so I'm not really thinking twice about it.

Every night we spend together and every conversation,

we just get closer and closer, so I'm excited where we're at.

-My couple, obviously, I'm happy I got paired up with Gabe,

but at the same time, when I am like,

"Oh, my God, I do really like Gabe,"

I'm like, "Girl, you need to calm down, like, right now."

I think he just makes me feel comfortable and, like, wanted,

so, like, that's nice. -Yeah. Yeah.

-After his night with Kayda,

Zach is having a bit of post-nut clarity.

I totally get that, Zach.

Last night, I are a king-size Snickers,

and I've felt terrible ever since.

-The Hideaway, I think it got all the girls

wanting to just be freaky with their man.

-Yeah, they were all like -- -We want to get some.

-I feel like no one thought it was an option

till the Hideaway popped up, and then everyone's like,

"Oh, shit, I forgot about that aspect

of being in a relationship and stuff."

How are you feeling with Kayda after all this?

-I still think we are open,

but it's a really weird thing because just I feel like

now there's a higher expectation to be more close

now that we've been in the Hideaway, I think.

And that's what scares me.

Because I do like her, but I'm just worried.

I don't know.

-I feel like Trinity is super into me,

but, like, I do wonder if, like, her exact type --

-...do you think she wants to, like, up your...?

-Yeah. -Basically.

How do you feel about that?

-Well, we got pretty close last night.

I had to stop it.

-Do you think you'll end up doing it in here?

-I don't know, bro.

I feel like, yeah, maybe.

-While the other Islanders get ready for bed,

Trinity has popped over to the Fijian rainforest

to release her boots back into the wild.

Be free, my pretties!

-Sincere and I chatted today.

-[ Gasps ] Shut the fuck up. -You can't say shit.

He was like -- He misses me

and, like, he doesn't want to close off our connection.

But I told him, honestly, because of all the lies,

like, the ball's in his court.

I need more than words. You know?

That's it. Don't tell anyone, please.

-I won't tell. -Please keep it a secret.

-I will.

-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

Last night, Gabriel and Jen were up till dawn doing Sudokus,

and Jen must be very good at them,

because she kept on yelling, "Harder, harder!"

-All I heard from every side was...

-Guys. -What?

-You like him?

-I don't know, cause it's like he comes in here

and he gives her a heart-shaped pancake,

so it makes it even weirder for me.

-It's time to just, like, go full in.

-Oh, Sincere had a close call last night.

He totally forgot Sol's name.

But, luckily, he managed to play it off.

-I love that Sincere calls me, like,

a bunch of little nicknames already.

-What does he call you.

-Like, beloved. and, like -- I don't know.

It's just, like, little, like, cute things when he, like,

addresses me.

I, like, really like it.

He has such, like a pure little, like, energy.

-He has a pure heart.

-Yeah, I feel like he just wants to, like,

focus on us and just, like, grow.

-Yeah.

-How was your talk with Corbin?

-Last night? -Yeah.

-It was good.

Like -- -"Last night?"

[ Both laugh ]

-I think we feel the same way right now,

where we miss our connection.

We're still trying to explore, like, our other connection,

but he's definitely giving me reassurance that --

-That he still is into you and everything?

-Yeah. -I love that.

-Yeah.

-I wonder if he's telling Melanie, like, that.

-I mean, I feel like she fucking can see it.

I feel like Kenzie's like a chicken with her head cut off

because she has so many, like, options.

I feel like both of the boys are trying to catch the chicken,

but, like, Corbin caught the chicken,

but then he's been letting the chicken go.

And I feel like Caleb's like, "I want that chicken."

-Yeah.

Yeah.

Last night?

Good.

Yeah.

Yeah. That's why he made you the heart pancake.

That's when he was like -- -That's why I was like --

-He does it right in front of her face, too.

I'd be like, "Damn."

-I need that shit.

-Yeah, I know, I know, I know.

-I need that shit.

I just needed to talk to you about it.

I, like, needed to say something.

-I love you! -I love you.

-Some people say this show is fake, and that is incorrect.

For example, here is Zach, Bryce, and Sincere chatting

next to some very real bananas.

-Alright, talk to us.

Did you do anything last night?

-I didn't do anything last night.

I genuinely didn't.

-I want to know what is going on in that king's head.

-First things first. Telling Sol --

that was probably the hardest thing I had to do.

That was the most nervous I was.

-That you were gonna chat with Mel?

-Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She took a second. She was like...

"Okay, like, I understand.

You know, that's alright."

And then I turn around and I'm like, "Oh, fuck."

I'm like, "Okay, here we go."

-How'd that convo go?

-It was, like, weird vibes. You know what I mean?

Like, it was like, neither of us really knew

what we wanted to say.

You know what I mean?

And then she was like, "Look, I miss you."

I was like, "I miss you, too."

-Fuck. Like, a lot, you miss her.

-Yeah. -The fact that she reciprocated, too.

-Yeah.

-We're not gonna close the door on each other.

You know what I mean?

Like, if shit happens and it circles back, then...

It's just tough, because, again,

like, I feel such strong emotions for both

of these women, you know? -No, I know, I know.

Like, who do you feel that you actually want to be

in a couple with now and, like, prioritize?

Or is it still not, like, that simple in your head?

-Like, it really is -- I'm not going to say

it's a coin flip, because, like, I think that

Sol and I are, like, growing.

Like, I'm just getting more comfortable with her.

I feel, even at night, like,

just sitting there, sleeping with her, holding her.

But I will say, like, that shit still hurts me,

like, watching them come down the stairs

and Melanie's not coming to me.

I never wanted to close the door with Melanie, like, ever.

I never wanted that to be the case.

And this shit has got me so much pain.

But this shit has never failed me.

And a lot of times, I'll be thinking with this

instead of this

and I'll get, like, fucked over.

Like, gun to my head, I don't know who I would pick.

-Gun to your head. -I don't know.

I wouldn't be able to pick.

-Life for Melanie in the Villa might be stressful,

but it's a lot easier than being at home.

I mean, imagine trying to sell bikinis in this weather.

-What you got to talk to me about?

What are you talkin' about?

-Nothing. I just want to chat. I haven't chatted with you.

-How you feel, though, that,

this morning when I was in the dressing room with y'all,

I gave you your breakfast and Kenzie her pancake?

-That kind of, um...

-How'd it make you feel?

-It makes me feel weird

because it makes me want you to, like, let you continue to,

like, be with her, because I don't want to be in the way.

-Don't self-sabotage. -I'm not.

-I mean, if you like the connection and where it's going,

you can't be scared to step on some toes.

-Yeah.

I don't know how I feel.

Actually, for the first time in the Villa, I don't know.

I think it's like when you first get to know someone,

you're just trying to figure them out,

and he's trying to figure me out.

But every time we have a conversation,

I like him a little bit more, so...

I don't know.

-I don't want to let go of you.

I like this.

-Last night, I told Kenzie that Caleb wears a wig,

so she's pulled him to Soul Ties to do some investigating.

-How do you feel, like, seeing Corbin and Melanie?

-I mean, yeah, I guess seeing them, it was kind of hard,

but now

I think it makes it easier for me during the day, kind of.

-Yeah. I feel like you've put more energy and effort

and, like, little flirty stuff with me since,

you know, yesterday.

-Yeah.

Yeah, I just want to be, like, more focused on, like,

me and you and growing our connection and, like,

getting deeper, because that's the only way

that we're going to get closer.

I'm so super-attracted to you. You are, like, adorable.

I'm noticing your freckles.

-What? My eyes or the face? -This one.

No, on this one.

Do you have really good vision?

-Yeah. 20/13. -I have 20/30.

-Do you? -Yeah.

20/13 isn't that good. 20/20 is the normal.

-Yeah. The lower the second number is, the better it is.

-No. No. -Mm-hmm.

-No. -Yeah.

-No, it's not.

Let me explain, because I was in nursing school.

-That's what they told me. They said I got fighter-pilot vision.

-I was in nursing school, bro.

That doesn't -- the low -- No.

20/30 -- so it means that what people have to be at

20 feet to see, I can see at 30 feet.

-Oh, I thought it was the opposite.

-No.

I'm trying my hardest to put myself first.

I definitely feel closer with Caleb.

I like being with him.

And I just want to see more of that masculine side of him.

Like, I want to feel like I can be taken care of.

I feel like if I was to see Caleb, like, fixing elevators,

I would be like, "Oh my God.

That's so fucking hot."

-It's good. -Yeah?

-Yeah. -Yeah?

Really good or just good?

I just really appreciate that you're just honest.

that's, like, a big thing for me.

-Yeah, I mean, that's what I try to do is just like be as, like,

just upfront and, like, drop my guard as much as I can.

-No, I'm happy. -Yeah.

-Mama happy.

-So am I.

-How do you describe me to the boys?

-[ Chuckles ]

I say that she's just like a ball of fresh air.

You make me comfortable. You make me happy.

And that's what Zach was saying.

He was like, "You guys are good together."

I've never talked to a girl like you before.

I've never experienced a woman like you before.

It's appealing, you know what I mean?

-Yeah. -It's like, what is she?

You know, like, what is going on in that little mind?

-He's like, "Damn, she's like an onion.

There's so many layers."

-Yeah, literally. I mean, there's so many layers.

There's so many layers. There's so many layers.

-I feel like some people I have dated before,

just like, I don't know, it's like, damn,

I've been seeing you for a while

and you don't even ask me, like, stuff to, like,

get to know, like, who I am.

And, like, you're just, like, content

with just, like, having my presence around,

but not really, like, fully knowing me.

-The curiosity is appealing to me because I'm like,

I want to know more, you know what I mean?

And that's why I ask you such, like,

even if it's just like little surface-level conversations

to, like, the big ones, because I want to know, like,

every little thing, you know? -Yeah.

-Because, like, the more someone actually knows about you,

the more you can feel safe, the more you can feel vulnerable

and just feel like you can just tell them whatever,

you know what I mean? -Yeah.

Every time I'm with him,

it just feels like -- it just feels easy.

And I love that, like, as deep as we can get,

like, we can also be super light-hearted

and, like, laugh with each other.

That's how, like, connection should be.

It shouldn't be like I'm pulling teeth,

so I'm happy.

He got me smiling.

-It always gets so awkward when you sleep with someone

when you're in your 20s,

which is why I avoided it completely.

-Do you just love kissing me?

-Yeah, lowkey.

Lowkey.

-I like kissing you. -Thanks.

-You're just so handsome. -Really?

-Did you genuinely think, like, you were gonna come in here

and find somebody, like, quick?

-I thought I'd explore more. I'll be real.

-Yeah.

-I did think, like, there'd be multiple people

I'd be, like, really wanting to get to know.

-Honestly, I agree with that, too.

-Yeah. -I thought so, too.

-It could still happen.

-I know.

I feel like our connection is good.

Like, we haven't had that, like, person

to come in to really kind of test our connection.

And I don't know, it makes me scared

for when someone does come in,

but I think it would just make us stronger, anyways.

We shall see.

You never know when this fucking Villa is about to erupt.

-We interrupt your normal broadcast

for a special weather update from our weather correspondent,

Corbin Mims.

Corbin, over to you.

-Shit, raining and shit, bro.

-This is what I listen to, like, when I'm relaxing in my room.

-Yeah. -Rain.

I listen to rain at night, so... -It's white noise.

Melanie, you were coupled up with Corbin,

Sol and Sincere, you are currently in a couple.

So, Sincere, it's your turn.

Sincere, it looks like you have more than one letter.

Please read the first letter.

-"To Sincere, our first impressions,

I've always felt a magnetic connection,

to get deep and to laugh with someone in the same breath.

I get this feeling when I put my hand on your chest.

Your smirk makes me smile.

I can guarantee we'll be with each other for a while.

Your thoughtfulness and kind, your kisses are sweet.

I feel so lucky it all gets to come to me.

You make me feel at ease.

My nervous system gets to rest with the reassurance you give.

I feel like I can give you my best.

Excited to see where this goes.

Who knows what's in store,

but I'm sincerely interested to keep opening our next doors."

-"Love, Sol."

-Sincere, now please read the second letter.

-"Dear Sincere, when I came here,

I had no clue I would fall for someone so fast.

My intentions when I first got here were to have fun,

be free and experience things I never got the chance to.

But I met you.

I realized I was falling for you."

♪ Sometimes I blink, I'm back to our first night ♪

-"I like how you make me feel.

I like how much I laugh with you

and how much you understand my lingo.

I love how I've had to learn to let go of

my hyperindependence with you.

I love learning about you and your family.

I love that your favorite birthday memory is you being

around your family with a Sour Patch cake.

Sincere, you make me giddy every time we lock eyes.

I feel like my eyes sparkle. I think about you all the time.

Even when I'm away from you,

I can't wait to be around you again.

Ever since we got broken apart.

I've been hoping for another opportunity to tell you

how I feel about you and how much I want to be with you.

Sincere, I'm sorry.

And I would really like to try this again with you.

And I can see us having a future together outside of this."

-"From the moment I walked into the villa,

I laid my eyes on you.

I knew I was close to home.

There was something real between us.

But it fell apart like a broken glass.

You can't put the pieces back together

and expect it to hold water.

With that being said,

you can't rewind time before you broke the glass.

And now that history is a part of our story.

I feel like I understand you so much better.

Your laughter rings bells inside of me.

And your smile is as contagious as ever.

The time we had apart has made it clear to me

how much I need you.

Your touch, your sweet smell,

and even hearing your soft breath at night

are all the things I've been missing in our time apart.

We've always said this makes sense outside of the villa.

I can already picture our first date in Philly

laying on the hammocks at Penn's Landing,

just like we talked about.

This is me taking action and making the first step

towards learning from my past mistakes.

Home is where I want to be, and that is with you.

Love, Sincere."

-Melanie, how do you feel reading Sincere's letter?

-I loved it so much.

I'm so happy.

I love that he even remembered

where I would want to go on my first date with him,

which is Penn's Landing.

So, I just I want to keep this forever

because I really like it.

-♪ You're probably laying on the floor ♪

-Thank you.

-♪ Hello, my old lover ♪

-Sincere, how are you feeling?

-I mean, I feel great, but again, like it's...

This wasn't easy at all. You know, it was tough.

It was really, really tough.

You know, two lovely women

with bright and beautiful spirits.

It's, um, it's not an easy decision,

but, I mean, I knew deep down

that she was what I needed, so...

-And Sincere, how did you feel about Melanie's letter to you?

-I mean, it was great. Like, again,

I can't believe that she remembered

my favorite birthday kind of memory,

which was having a Sour Patch Kid cake.

-The cake was Sour Patch Kids?

-It was shaped as a Sour Patch Kid.

-That's pretty cool. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Well, that means, Melanie and Sincere, congratulations.

You are back together and coupled up again.
