NARRATOR: Previously...
I chose to leave.

I also wrote leave.

..Claire and Jesse's
tragic fall from grace.

I'm talking to all of you,
but particularly Harrison.

You throw grenades like that,
they can do untold damage.

And...

I have a child.

..Alyssa's self doubt...

You don't want me to come?

..led to heartache for Duncan...

And I feel more rejected
than any relationship I've been in.

..as the experts kicked off
Feedback Week.

Tahnee will move into
your apartment with Rupert.

Evelyn will move into
your apartment with Duncan.

Lyndall will pack her bags
and move in with Ollie.

Swapping partners
gives our participants

the unique opportunity to reflect

and examine their own relationship
with a fresh set of eyes.

Do you think Ollie and I
are too good to be true?

The connection
that you both have together

is something out of a story book.

I think he is definitely on the way
to be the big L word.

How are ya, sheila?

(LAUGHS)

Hello.

But Melinda's new housemate...

And I don't feel comfortable, guys.
I don't feel comfortable doing that.

You're actually acting
like a Harrison right now.

..caused her marriage to implode.

You're doing this
to yourself, Layton.

I just want to be on my own.

Tonight...

Is Layton about to call it quits
with Melinda?

So Layton's refusing to come back
into my room.

This is not my fault.

That's a joke.

You shouldn't have been knocking
on my door.

Wrong door, sweetie.

And...

I don't think the plan is for you
to move to Darwin,

because it's not going to
change the fact,

if you were in Perth
or in Darwin.

..long-distance dating dilemma
for Lyndall and Cameron...

Clearly there's a lot of stuff

that we need to be talking about
before we're going to

commit to doing this massive
long-distance thing.

..before familiar faces return...

(CHEERING)

..for a boys'...

(SQUEALING)

..and girls' night.

I feel really nervous about
seeing Janelle.

There's still unfinished business
between us.

So you have feelings for Harrison?
Yep.

And Sandy doesn't hold back.

I don't believe it.

Whoa!

Don't you feel like he's
manipulating you?

She decided to attack me.

It's out of line.

I'm done.

Our couples have been through

an innovative stage
of Feedback Week,

where they swapped partners to gain

a new perspective
of their relationship.

Last day. I've learned a lot,

and I'm glad I got paired with you.
Same.

I feel like it's been pretty chill.

Yeah, just rooming with a mate.

Yeah.
Over the last three days, I've

definitely gotten a new perspective
on my relationship with Evelyn.

Tahnee's said some things
that really reassured me,

and there may be something there
with Evelyn and I moving forward.

Hopefully there is going to be
no tea this week,

but I reckon there will be.

LYNDALL: I've had a great time.
Talking about feelings.

Don't get to do that too often.
Right.

I found it really rewarding,
being able to talk to somebody

as a bit more of a sounding board.
Ollie's been giving advice,

he's really helping me out with it,
and I guess being able to say it

as I feel it and having Ollie
just accept it, no judgement,

is a really constructive
environment,

I guess, yeah.
It was good. It was great.

I don't feel as weighed down
or resentful or anything.

I feel like I got a lot out,
and I felt understood.

I feel less confused about
all of that stuff now.

That's the vibes, right there.

That's the vibe.
Yeah, so it makes me more confident

to talk about it with Cam, as well.
Yeah.

Should we do a hug? Because I
really enjoyed the experience.

But not everyone is comfortable
with the outcomes

of the partner swap stage
of Feedback Week.

For the last three days,

Melinda and Harrison have found
the arrangement awkward.

(QUIRKY MUSIC)

How's your coffee?

It is good.
You're welcome.

Thank you.
Mm-hmm.

Living with Harrison for the last
three days is...

It's not a vibe.

It's not a party in here.

There's been awkward moments.

I mean, sitting on the same couch
together is awkward.

Thank you for making more of a bed
out here for me last night.

I thought that was very nice of you.

And for tucking me in.

You're pushing it.
You did! You put the blanket on.

You're pushing it.
You tucked me in. You know you did.

That was nice!
Just admit it was nice.

You did a nice thing.

Are you serious?
It was nice!

No, I did not tuck you in!
I gave you a blanket.

Did you sleep good?
Not really.

Mmm.

Do you care?

(SOFT CHUCKLE)

(BOTH LAUGH)

Mmm.

Having completed
all the intense tasks

of the partner swap stage,

our brides and grooms prepare to
return to their homes and partners.

Give me a hug. I'll see you soon.

All the best, and tell Cam I said,
'How are ya, cobber?'

(CHUCKLES) I will.

How's it going?
How are you?

Honey, I'm home.

Missed ya.
Missed ya.

Tell me everything.
It was fun.

Me and Duncan, so he felt -
you gave the flowers,

and he's like,
'I've gotta do something.'

So we made this fun suggestion.

Yeah?
We did this photoshoot

for Alyssa,

and I was like,
throwing flour at him

and sprinkles at him.
That's gold.

What did you guys do?

I asked Tahnee if we
were compatible, and she said yes.

That's positive.
Yeah.

OK.
I was like, wow. Yep.

Lyndall was fun?
Fun to hang out with?

Yeah, she was good.
I think she needed it, mate.

We chatted deep.

Got to the core of the stuff,
and I think it was real refreshing.

She's like, 'I haven't had
a conversation like this

the whole time
I've been here with Cam.'

Oh.

How was your time?

Yeah, it was good.

It was a good couple of days.
Yeah. That's good.

(LAUGHS)
Yeah, good. Good chat.

I feel like there has been
a lot that's been building up

that I haven't felt comfortable
telling Cam.

And being able to have that fluid,
comfortable conversation

about hard topics with Ollie
after like three days,

it's pretty jolting really.

But the only way Cam's gonna
get better at these conversations

is if I have them with him.

So I actually just need to do it,
even though it's a bit scary.

What do you feel like Alyssa
had to offer?

I mainly brought up work.

Yeah.

New opportunities in his career
have Cameron concerned

about the chance
of his relationship with Lyndall

surviving outside the experiment.

I've told Lyndall about
my remote work, but I haven't really

confessed how much remote work
I actually do,

and how long I'm away from home,

and after speaking to Alyssa,
I think it's starting to come to

the realisation of what happens
after this experiment.

It's something I want to talk about
with Lyndall.

There's some times where I'll be
away for five or six weeks,

out remote, with no phone service.

Where I work, they've given me
an opportunity

like they've given no one else.
Mm-hmm.

I can't see myself
leaving the territory,

leaving my career, doing what I do.

So, that's where I'm at
in my career, I suppose.

Yeah.

I mean, I guess it puts me
in a bit of a weird spot.

I don't want you to feel bad about
wanting that career.

But like, the options are
you don't want to leave Darwin

for your job, so what?
The plan is I'd move to Darwin?

And then you'd be away?

Not exactly the best environment
for forming a relationship, either.

I don't think the plan is for you
to move to Darwin, because it's not

going to change the fact,
if you're in Perth or in Darwin.

I'm still going to be out remote.

So I guess what we're staring down

at the moment
is long-distance for a while.

I think the long-distance thing
is gonna be a thing.

Cool.

(WEARY SIGH)

Clearly there's a lot of stuff that
we need to be talking about before

we're going to commit to doing
this massive long distance thing.

I don't really know what the deal is
at this point.

Not all our couples have reunited
after their partner swap.

Before moving back in with Melinda,
Layton wants to check in

one last time with his partner

for this stage of the experiment,
Bronte.

It's been a big week,
and I didn't fully agree

with this activity in general.

But you know,

I can see in hindsight
I'm getting value out of it.

It's been pretty good
to have a sounding board.

I wouldn't have thought it would
come from Bronte

of all people, but it was good
to have a female perspective

on everything
that I'm going through.

Good morning.
How are you?

I'm good. Come on in.

I don't know if you like acai bowls.

Thank you.
These are one of my favourites.

How are you feeling?

This was probably
the toughest week, I reckon.

A hundred percent.

I don't necessarily agree

with the task in principle,
but I feel like

anything that you had said to me
in our conversations yesterday

were, if anything, maybe some
reinforcement of things I had been

thinking about.

Am I right in questioning
Mel's morals

for how easily she was able
to move in with Harrison?

No, I don't think it's wrong at all.

Your first reaction is usually
genuinely

your raw authentic feeling.
Yep.

And the fact that that got
squashed..

Right.
..she kind of gaslit you.

She made you feel like
your emotions

were invalid.
Yep.

You have every right to feel
the way that you do.

I feel like if you wanted this
to work...

(TENSE MUSIC)

(WHISTLES)

You know, I just -
I don't think I'm ready

to even sort of move back in
tonight.

I just need time
to have a think about it,

because I just feel like
when I needed Mel most,

I felt like she wasn't there,
and not only was she not there,

she was there with Harrison.

One hundred percent.

Like, what the hell?
So weird.

It's confusing.

Because it does make me question
whether her morals and principles

align with mine, and if she's hated
this person or so long,

how can you so easily challenge me?

That's - like, we were talking
about red flags? That's a red flag.

You know Mel the best
out of everybody, right,

so you know that you're going to
walk in there, and she's going to

want to patch things up,
but in Mel form.

So you just need to take
this time now that you've got,

the next 24 hours to yourself.
Yep.

I just hope it's not taken
the wrong way.

If she doesn't know you by now,
will she ever know you?

Yep, agreed.

I've seen some things in Mel over
the last few days

that I really just don't agree with.

And that really does
make me question

the compatibility
in our relationship.

I appreciate it. You've been...
I've got you.

..a good sounding board.
Of course.

It's what I'm here for.
Who'd have thought,

Bronte and Layton!
Right?

(LAUGHS)

I feel like I've got to respect
my own boundaries as well.

Alright. I'll speak to you soon.

And right now I need time to process
everything that's happened.

I just need a night away from Mel
to have a think about it.

And then maybe tomorrow we can
get back together and have a chat.

Unaware of Layton's decision
to spend another night apart,

Melinda is waiting
in their apartment for his arrival.

I'm looking forward
to having Layton back.

We've got a lot we need to work on,

because we left on not a good note
when he was kicking off.

HARRISON: Why don't you just
give the challenge 100 percent?

I don't feel comfortable, guys.
I don't feel comfortable doing that,

and I now feel like I'm being put
on the spot.

It's something
I'm not comfortable with,

and I feel like
I'm being challenged on it.

You're impossible.

You're actually acting
like a Harrison right now.

If you're packing your bags
and about to

walk out and not even talk to me -

don't come and give me a hug,
when you won't even talk to me.

I'm hoping he comes back in,

there is an apology, and he does see

that he shouldn't just up and leave
things like that

when we're not going to talk
for three days.

That's not healthy for us.

(MOODY MUSIC)

(SIGHS)

Back where?

This has to be a joke.

I'm expecting an apology,
and for him not to come back...

I'm too angry and
I'm too frustrated inside.

Layton's just always been like that,

he's set in his ways, very stubborn.

It doesn't matter what Mel needs.

I need answers.

He's had three days away.

He's got different perspectives
from other people

that I thought would give him
a different perspective,

but maybe I'm wrong, so my mind
jumps to the worst case scenario.

Has Bronte said something,

you know, added fuel
to an explosion?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Hello.
Hi.

After the partner swap stage
of Feedback Week,

Layton is refusing to move back in
with his wife, Melinda.

Needing answers, Melinda is hoping
a visit to Layton's partner

for the last three days, Bronte,
will give her some clarity.

Hello.

Hi.
Is everything OK?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

So Layton's refusing to come back
into my room.

Yeah.
So what's happened?

I...

He feels that he's unsupported

by the fight that you two had.

There was a lot of blurred lines.
I didn't get a lot of detail.

I'm not pointing fingers.
I'm just trying to understand.

I don't trust
that what's happened in here

has de-escalated that in any way.
All I have done is listen.

I've listened and done the tasks.
That's all I have done.

But have you validated any of this?
Were you sitting there saying,

'How dare she? That's not good,
you deserve better.'

That's what I'm looking at.
No!

This is not my fault.

I have not persuaded Layton
to feel a certain way

or to act a certain way.

He felt that
before he even got here.

Like, Layton literally said -
these are Layton's words.

This has got nothing to do with me.

His feelings, he felt like
he wasn't supported.

How is that being inflicted onto me?

I'm not going to sit here
and point fingers

if my relationship goes south.
It's up to me to fix it.

I just got a real
kind of cold shoulder...

'He just feels
you're not supporting him, Mel.'

The way she said it to me
was like, it's...

'Yeah, I've confirmed
that you don't.'

It came across like that.

And he doesn't want this.

He doesn't want...

What's this?
He doesn't want to fight.

To yell.
That's a joke.

That's what he said.

Are you OK?

Do you think I'm OK?

Bloody hell.

I knew she'd think this was
something to do with me.

She came barging in here,
basically saying,

'What did you say to my husband
in order for him to move out?'

Again, everything is my fault.

She shouldn't have been knocking
on my door.

Wrong door, sweetie.
Go knock on his.

Worried that Bronte may have
misrepresented Melinda

during her stay with Layton,

Melinda wastes no time
in clearing the air.

Hey, I was in there
waiting for my apology, but...

What apology?

What apology?
You told them that you don't want to

come back to the apartment.
Whoa. Do you want to come in

and have a chat?
Yeah, but did you say that, first,

before I come in?
Yeah, I said, I'm not ready to go

back to the apartment yet.
I need a day.

I'm sitting there and I get told,

'Sorry, Layton
doesn't want to come in.'

How about hello?

You've left me there like that,
and you did what you did to me

that day, and I'm hoping
that for once

you could put yourself in my shoes.
Mel, I can't - now,

getting attacked, and you...
It's not attacked!

I'm upset. This is emotion.
OK, so...

Maybe - Mel...
And then - I get a knock...

I'm waiting for you to come in,
and yes, I want to chat about

a lot of things. I'm hoping
and praying that maybe

you're going to for once see it
from my side,

and you're going to have an apology.

I'm angry and I'm upset that he
left me at the beginning

of the week, and now he doesn't even
want to come back or tell me

that he needs another night.

Right now is the reason I said
I wanted some time today,

because I didn't want this
to happen,

and this is happening now.

So I would really appreciate...
I don't give a shit!

..if we could do this tomorrow.
No, you're gonna

chat to me now, because there's
gonna be no tomorrow.

I can promise you that I will
see things from your way,

and I will put myself in your shoes.

I need to request
that you do the same.

I didn't fully agree
with this activity in general.

Listen, I can...
I really needed Mel

on the day that we moved out,

and I feel like I didn't get
the support that I needed,

and talking to Bronte this morning

really made me question how aligned
Mel and I are in certain situations.

This is why I needed some time
for me,

without having to move back in
with Mel now.

And I just really need
to decompress.

There is no point having a chat
today, tomorrow,

ever, but you need to promise me
you will step out of your shoes

and put yourself in my shoes,

or there's no point
in having a chat.

Then let's go into the room.
We can sit down and have a chat.

Layton can so easily be so selfish

to the point that he's like,
'Well I need time.

More time.'
It doesn't matter what Mel needs.

I didn't want to do the task, too,

but I did it anyway, and Layton
didn't want to do that.

He's very stubborn in his own way.

Layton only sees what Layton sees,
and no one can change that.

I've opened the door
and I've seen you,

and you said to me you were waiting
for me to come in and apologise.

And I've told you why.
Can you tell me again?

Because I didn't understand.
Because I'm hurt.

What are you hurt over?

(SAD MUSIC)

I've been scared all the three days.
I've been scared this morning.

I've been worried about
what's going to happen.

I've been worked up about
what's going to happen,

how I can say the best thing,
how I can let you know

that I was there for you,
how can I let you know this,

and I've been trying to worry about
how I can do this,

because I was so upset and angry
for three days at you.

I was so upset and angry.

But I thought maybe if you could
go away for a few days...

Like, you don't even put yourself
in my shoes, so you don't know...

Hey, hey. Relax. I'm here with you.
I'm really upset.

Like, I've been upset here,
but my heart is breaking.

I'm just really upset.

Mel, you just need to relax.
To then have someone come in,

and I think it's you, and someone
comes in and says, 'Mel, I'm sorry,

but Layton's not coming back.'

That's not the case.
I didn't say I'm not coming back.

I said I needed a day. Hey, relax.

Mel. Bloody hell. Hey, come here.

Relax for a second. Calm down.

I felt attacked on the day,
by you and by Harrison.

Hits me...
How am I attacking you

when I've come in to hug you
and talk to you,

and say, 'Let me support you.'
Mel.

I'm sorry, Mel, the fact
that you're saying I left you

when I felt attacked...
It's all about you!

In that moment, I needed you.

I have backed you every step
of the way in this experiment.

I've gotta go. I'm sorry.
I'm getting - I can't do this.

I'm done.

I'm done.

(GRITTY MUSIC)

(SOBS)

Hey, hey, relax.
I'm really upset.

I'm not feeling great.
I'm not feeling great,

because I don't like seeing Mel
as upset as she is.

I didn't want to do a couple swap.
But Mel wanted to.

It's just, yeah - it's hard,
because I feel attacked

but then I also want
to care for Mel at the same time.

I thought maybe some space
after everything that's happened

in the last couple of days
would be good,

but Mel's really upset.

She's really been affected.

I don't know what the best course
of action is.

I feel like I care about you
so (BLEEP) much.

And I just don't feel
the same from you.

(MOODY MUSIC)

Mel, you know how much I care
about you as well, and I felt...

I did not want to live with Bronte.

I didn't want Harrison
coming in here.

But I didn't have your support.
I didn't feel like I was supported.

I felt like you were
siding with Harrison.

It's not what happened,
and it's not true.

But that's how I felt, Mel.

In that moment, I felt like I was

attacked by both you and somebody
that you had told me you hated.

I get it.
The person you say you hate most

in the world.
I get it.

And I'm sorry you felt like that.

But I didn't get to tell you that
on the day.

You didn't want to talk to me.
You didn't want a bar of me.

You were quick to think
that I had ganged up on you.

Because that's how I felt.
I get it, and I know.

But then let me tell you something
so that you can feel differently.

I get it. I appreciate it.

My husband not wanting to move in

with another female because he's in
a relationship with me...

What girl is going to have
a problem with that?

But what I wanted to do
is not attack you,

not try and change your mind -

I wanted to make sure that you had
different perspectives.

(MOODY MUSIC)

I am really sorry
that you felt that way.

That's why I'm here now,
because I can see that,

and I do care about you.
Anyway...

This is the reason why I just wanted
to have a day,

so we can both decompress, because I
didn't want this to happen.

What I think would be best

is to go back into the other room,
at least overnight.

Absolutely, absolutely.

I've had strong feelings
from the first week I met Mel.

But at the moment, I feel like

the best course of action is to have
a day apart.

Have a breather. Both just
to settle down a little bit.

And then we can have a conversation
that makes sense

tomorrow, when emotions
aren't heightened.

NARRATOR: With the partner swap
stage now over,

our couples are settling back
into normality.

I'm glad to be back.
Yeah. Yeah.

These experiments are meant to
challenge you,

and I did miss you,
and I grew a different

appreciation for you and us.
Yeah.

And after having the night away
from his wife, Melinda,

Layton has moved back in.

Knock-knock.

I'm feeling a little bit better,

for our couple swap leading into
me taking a night on my own.

How are you doing?

I think the space was quite healthy
and we probably needed it.

Mel might disagree, but I think
it was still good for us, so,

I'm ready to move back in with Mel.

The house hasn't been so light.

How are you?
I'm good.

I can sense that Mel's been
pretty upset about it,

and I can understand why, but I hope
we can just sort of try to

put that past us and refocus on us
and our relationship.

I'm really sorry that you felt
the way that you felt,

when I took some time.

The last thing I want for you,
is for you to be unhappy.

Time away for me makes it worse.
Time away for you makes it better.

I know. I totally get

why you would have felt
the way that you did.

If there's something I can do
for you, please tell me.

I mean it's obviously good
that Layton's moved back in,

but I guess it's going to

take me a little bit longer
to snap out of this time,

because yeah, a lot happened.

OK. I'm going to unpack.

I know Layton can pick up on
my down energy today,

and that bothers him, so...

His way of caring for that
is to step back a little

and acknowledge it and just not get
into a big heated discussion,

so yeah, that's at least good.

Our couples have been given
unique perspectives from their peers

during the partner swap,

and now they're about to enter
the next crucial stage

of Feedback Week.

(GIGGLES)

Nice.

(CLEARS THROAT)

We hope you have gained
some much-needed perspective

from your days outside your couple.

Hopefully your new pairing
helped you recognise things

you can change or improve
in your final week

before making the decision to stay
or leave your relationship

once the experiment comes to an end.

It's now time to let your hair down
at boys' and girls' night.

Woo!

I can't wait to tell the girls
my experience,

and I definitely want to hear
how Tahnee went

with living with my husband.

# Girls just want to have fun. #

(LAUGHS)

It's important at this stage of
the experiment to give our couples

an opportunity to get
some last minute insights

on their relationships.

The camaraderie of this night
in the past

has given our participants
the courage to take

the next major leap or address
the concerns they have

in their relationships,
with final vows

just around the corner.

But Bronte is nervous about going
into girls' night this evening,

reluctant to get into another
confrontation with Melinda.

The way that Melinda
came storming in here the other day

was just so inappropriate,

and I won't tolerate being spoken to
like that ever again.

I won't have a bar of it.

(WEAK CHUCKLE)

Girls' night.
Because girls' nights for me

in the past have gone down
really well.

Off the back end
of this partner swap,

I know that I'm going to be in
Melinda's firing line again.

(SIGHS) It gives me anxiety
just thinking about it.

It's not a nice feeling.

So, am I excited to see her?
Absolutely not.

After a tense discussion yesterday,

Duncan saw Alyssa leave, and today,
she has returned home.

Having spent some time with her son,

she's re-energised
and ready for girls' night.

You know I do like to match.

Let's see the options.

OK.

(GROANS)
White, black...

Nup.

I'm definitely in
a better headspace today.

When I spend some time with my son,
I definitely feel refreshed.

My God, Duncan,

this is taking too long
for you to choose a pair of shoes.

Alyssa's come back
in a pretty positive mindset.

I was like, hooray!

I was very upset when we last spoke.

I just thought it was a bit funny
to get someone a picture

of me acting as a goose.

What do you think? (GOOFY LAUGH)

But my gift went down
like a lead balloon in my eyes.

Cute.

So, I tried to talk about it
with Alyssa.

I want a dynamic where we can have
tough conversations

without them becoming extremely
emotionally charged.

But it all went downhill from there.

Duncan!
What?

I'm a very emotional person.

I need time and I need space.

What do you want me - how do you
want me to communicate that?

(MOODY MUSIC)

I think I just need time.
OK.

Bye.

I feel more rejected
in this relationship

than any relationship I've been in.

But having some time apart,
you get a bit more perspective,

and I guess the passion
gets taken out of it a little bit.

Why, what do you think?

It's what wives are for,

to help their husbands through
the tough times of which shoes.

Obviously there's still things that

we need to still talk through
and work through.

But I'll keep showing up,

keep being positive,
and if you keep doing that,

then you can maybe change
some of this negativity

about the whole sort of outlook
on things.

I don't like the green.

OK.

Duncan and I, we haven't really
spoken too much about

any of our issues
from yesterday's conversation.

In this experiment, you just
literally don't have time

to sit down and hash things out
for four hours, but I think things

are still really good between us,

and I'm absolutely
looking forward to tonight.

Are you ready?
Let's do it.

Just moved in, and now
we're leaving, separately.

Again. You just keep, you know...

Me?
It's all you.

It's now time to officially kick off

this year's girls' and boys' night,

as the wives and husbands
take leave from one another

and head out
for a night on the town.

Yeah, the girls!
Yeah, the girls. (LAUGHS)

Let's go girls.

(ROCK MUSIC)

Girls' night, girls' night,
girls' night!

Oh, my God. Yes!

Shiraz is good.

Shiraz?
Yes.

Ten.
(LAUGHS)

OK, guys.

I just wanted to say something.

(BLEEP) me.
Evelyn?

You guys all look beautiful.
(LAUGHTER)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

OK, tell me how it was
living with Rupert.

Who do you think
is the messy one, me or him?

I think it's Rupert.
Thank you! He thinks it's me!

But bitch, your hair is everywhere.

I literally got out, and I was like,
why is Evelyn hair all over me?

I was like, she's marking
her territory!

ALYSSA: Cam gave me the bed,
and then

I tucked your wedding photo in

and slept next to it.
Aw, cute!

Ollie dressed up as Cam.

Stop!
Yes.

He got a blonde wig
and a rip-off cowboy hat.

(COUNTRY MUSIC)

How are ya, sheila?

(LAUGHS)

Aw, God! It's a crocodile!

(LAUGHS)

How do I put this bloody thing
in a bun?

(LAUGHTER)

Whilst the girls continues to share
their partner swap experience,

on the other side of the city,

the boys have kicked off
their night out.

Boys' night. Sorry. (LAUGHS)

(ROCK MUSIC)

I think we've all been itching
for the boys' night.

I am looking forward to catching up

with everyone from the start of
the experiment.

I'll go a lager, please.

Get a few Scooey Scooey Moi Mois.

Six fireballs, yeah?

It'd be rude not to, wouldn't it?

A couple of Schooner Matatas.

And just have a good night out.

Boys. Boys' night.

Going into boys' night

after a pretty exhausting

and emotional few days,

I'm looking forward
to seeing all the lads.

Get together, have fun,

have a drink, unwind.

But you know,
in the last couple of days

I've seen a side of Harrison
which I haven't seen before.

Drama's not something I look for,
it's not something I want.

But there's a conversation

I feel like
I need to have with Harrison.

So how did you go?
Oh, mate, yeah. Like,

I think you saw
that I was uncomfortable.

I never asked for that challenge.

No one did.
It was set by the experts.

I wanted those three days
to work on my own relationship.

But I'm like, if I'm going in here,

I'm going to get something
out of it, and for me,

all I wanted to get out of it was,
can I spend three days

trapped in a room
with someone I don't like?

Just for me, when we had
the activity,

I felt like I had
both of you together

working against me,
and that's not fair.

I've had so many arguments with Mel
backing you, and I felt like -

and similarly, when I needed to
I supported Mel, and I felt like

in that moment I'm saying, 'Guys,
this is my principle,

I'm going to do it my way...'
Right.

It was this thing about,
why don't I have your support?

Because I have been...
Oh, you wanted my support?

Well, both my partner's
and your support.

So that's why I reacted
the way that I did.

Yeah I got roasted from Mel
multiple times

for supporting and backing you,

and that's just...
That sounds like Mel.

He's trying to stir me up.

All I'm starting to sense is this is
actually what Harrison is like.

Harrison I just think can't seem to
be honest with me.

He just always seems to have

some sort of ulterior motive,
and lies.

I don't like when people
are standing in glass houses

and throwing stones.

I feel like she would have seen
a different side to me

over the three days,
you know what I mean?

Like, i cooked us dinner
on the first night.

I had a bottle of wine.

We sat up to 2am
just talking about life.

Yeah.
He's saying he stayed up

and talked to all hours
of the morning with Mel.

Because we did that
every day we were there.

It has hit home to me recently.

I've been seeing a bit more

from Harrison that sort of rubs me
a little bit the wrong way.

I would certainly think twice now

before trusting him,
that's for sure.

NARRATOR: Coming up...

(SQUEALING)

..the final stage of Feedback Week
sees the return of familiar faces.

But...

What do you want
from this conversation, Adam?

..will the arrival of some former
participants re-open old wounds?

I want to see Claire.

There's still unfinished business
between us.

And...

So you have feelings for Harrison?

Yep.

..Sandy delivers Bronte

some hard truths.
I don't believe it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Whoa.

It's out of line.

I'm done.

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

NARRATOR: With girls'
and boys' night in full swing,

the final stage of Feedback Week
is about to commence.

We've invited
our past participants along

to boys' and girls' night,

so that they can celebrate

and confer with those
still in the experiment.

I'm looking forward to seeing
all the girls tonight.

Woop-woop!

Be prepared, girls.

Mel is back.

It's also an opportunity for them

to interact with their peers

and catch up on everything
they've missed

since leaving the experiment.

I've got my little crystal
that I'll be bringing with me.

It's for good energy!

Claire was a bride
who made a big impact

in this year's experiment.

Having been at the centre
of several dramas,

Claire has returned tonight

armed with her crystals

to share some positive news about
her and Jesse's relationship.

Since leaving the experiment,
Jesse and I talk. We talk a lot.

Outside of the experiment
we have spoken,

and he has said that he is
not going to come tonight.

I know that he doesn't really like
confrontation,

so I think that it was for the best
that Jesse doesn't show up tonight.

Yep.

But Claire is walking into
girls' night

concerned about seeing
fellow bride Janelle,

after Claire's kiss
with Janelle's husband Adam

ended Janelle and Adam's
relationship.

Yeah, the only person I guess
I'm feeling a little bit nervous

about seeing is Janelle.

Obviously everything
that had happened with Adam...

I'm embarrassed that I kissed him.

Like, yeah, it's pretty shit,
and I do feel really bad.

And when I saw Janelle
at the last dinner party,

it wasn't a very warm welcome.

(MOODY MUSIC)

Hi, guys. Hi, Janelle.

Hi, Alyssa.
How are you going? Hi, Janelle.

So that's kind of the only person

I'm feeling a little bit
apprehensive about seeing.

But I'd like to take the time

to tell her I made a mistake,
I'm sorry.

I really hope that I can earn
my forgiveness with Janelle.

I really hope that she can see that
I am truly remorseful,

and I can just hope that she has it
in her heart to forgive me.

I wanted to come here
and learn more about myself

in relationships,
but both Adam and Claire

have completely stripped me
of anything that I was looking for

in this experience.

Tonight, I want to see Claire
and really speak to her one on one,

because she's got
some explaining to do.

This year saw one of
the most authentic brides

in the experiment's history

go against her family and community
to participate.

And Sandy is applying
her finishing touches

before her big arrival
at girls' night.

I'm excited to see all the girls.

At this point, I'm just trying to
move on with my life.

I'm back in Melbourne.

I'm focusing on my business,
you know, focusing on who I am.

I'm getting there.

Yep.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

What I went through with Dan
wasn't great,

but I learned a lot from it.

I will never allow someone
to make me feel that way.

I will always use my voice.

I feel so much stronger.

(SQUEALING AND CHEERING)

(SQUAWKS AND LAUGHS)

It was my girl.
I was so happy to see her.

I'm good, how are you going?
Oh, my God.

I almost combusted when I saw Sandy.

She's just such a genuine, amazing,
strong woman. Like...

I love her to bits.

ALL: Cheers.
EVELYN: How the hell are you?

What's been happening?
A lot better now.

I mean, when I first left,
the first week was shit.

(GROANS OF SYMPATHY)

I'm building myself back up now.
It's all good.

You look amazing.
(GIGGLES)

Have you spoken to Dan?

Yeah, he's been messaging me.
Ooh!

Yuck. Block him, bye.
I've just

kept it civil, but nothing...

I'm not reaching out,

I'm not trying to go out there
and make him look bad.

I mean, Dan's done that himself.
He's does that himself.

What I will say
is that you dodged a bullet.

Yep.
So please do not ever...

Dodged a bullet but broke my heart
in the process, which sucks.

Even though it really hurt...

It hurts like hell, but you've got
to stand up for yourself.

I have to remind myself,
what do I deserve, what is my worth,

and keep going...

As much as I want it to work,
and I'm hopeful, like,

I haven't even told
my parents yet. Sorry.

Aw, babe.
I don't know how to tell them.

Like if I had hopes about
this working,

obviously they had hopes,
and in our community,

a marriage breaking up
is a big deal.

Like, that's shame for my parents.
Once they know that you chose

your worth...
I know,

but they're not gonna know that
right now.

Like for them, it's still
a hard - thank you.

It's a hard conversation to have
and explain to them

why it didn't work.

Well, it's not on you.
It's not on you.

Regardless.

In my culture, the break up
of a marriage can be seen

as a really shameful thing,
and that's something my parents

now have to face in the community.

Sandy is just such a genuine woman,

and her journey touched us all.

It's heartbreaking, all the stuff
she had to go through,

all the things Dan said to her.

I'm actually embarrassed
that I put him

top three
of the attractiveness challenge.

I take that back.

You walked away from something that
wasn't good for you and stood up

for yourself. Like, they have to be
so proud of that.

Hundred percent.
I'm so proud of you for that.

Also, you were so effing strong
up there

and held yourself so well,
and spoke so eloquently.

You'll be a role model
to so many women,

and that's what you've taught us.

Thanks, Alyssa.

A hundred percent.

I love being around the girls.
That's where I feel my energy.

Just having all the women around me.
Knowing I've got support,

I'll be fine.

These women are amazing.
I love them all.

I didn't get love,
but I got love from - how many?

11 other women. Sorry.

Every single girl in there,
I was so happy to see.

It's nice. It's really nice.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

What do you think is happening
at the boys' night tonight?

The boys are gonna be like,
"Yeah the boys,

"beers, beers, beers, beers, beers!"

(WOOF NOISES AND CHEERING)

The boys are on.
(LAUGHS)

NARRATOR: Now that the boys have
caught up on what they've learned

from their partner swap,
their attention

turns to the return

of some familiar faces, to get some
much-needed critical feedback.

Who's coming in first?

I'm saying Shannon first.
I'm saying Josh.

Oh, Josh.

I've missed Thor
and his hammer. (LAUGHS)

You're gonna hear him coming
from a mile away.

(CHEERING)

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

Everyone loves Josh.

Bro.
Bro!

Walked in, smiling assassin.

How are you?
How are you, brother?

Good, how are you?

Love it. Love catching up with him.

Here he is!

(CHEERING)

Mate, it's a pleasure to meet you.
I've heard fantastic things.

Josh 2.0.

I don't really see it,

other than he's really
ruggedly handsome and good-looking.

I tell you what, you actually
look very similar.

If you mean both handsome

as hell, then...
See, that -

I could imagine him saying that!

(LAUGHS)

Did you have
a super-successful relationship

on the experiment?
Well I'm not in

the experiment anymore, so...
I did notice that.

Yeah, yeah.
I'm also not in the experiment.

Is this a parallel universe?

Who ordered
the (BLEEP) (UNINTELLIGIBLE)?

Out of the fellas I didn't meet,

I thought Josh was awesome.

I really like him.
I feel like I'd get along with him.

Shannon, not so much.

One memorable former participant
keen for tonight is Caitlin.

Since leaving the experiment,
Caitlin has found her feet,

and she is planning
to share her strength

with the remaining brides.

I'm so excited going into
girls' night. I can't wait.

The Caitlin that we have seen,
she was pretty beaten down.

She was supporting someone
who didn't deserve it,

and she doesn't have that
on her shoulders anymore.

(LAUGHS) It feels good.

I'm looking forward to seeing
all the girls tonight.

Like, when I left, the bond
between women was so strong.

They were so supportive
and comforting.

This man does not deserve me.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

So I will be leaving.

(APPLAUSE)

I really loved
every single one of them,

and I can't wait to see them.

Even though the relationship
didn't work with Shannon,

I'm so grateful for this experiment,

and for the experts,
because I needed this time

to grow and self-reflect,
and without them, I wouldn't have

gone onto this journey
of discovering myself.

Tonight, I am bringing
a new Caitlin,

and she deserves to be shown off.

Ooh, someone's coming.

(SQUEALING AND CHEERING)

Oh, my God!

Caitlin's back, baby! (LAUGHS)

I've missed you guys!

Oh, my God. I was puffed
after sprinting towards Caitlin.

It was so good to see her.

Tell me about your husband.

You've never heard
about Shannon? Ooh!

Being married to Shannon
was kind of like being at the top

of a really big slippery-dip, yeah?
You're like,

this looks like it could be
really fun at the top,

but then you start going down,
and the further you go down,

the more you're like,
(BLEEP) - regrets.

(LAUGHTER)
And a pile of elephant shit

at the bottom, and essentially
I came off and into

the elephant shit that was
the end of our relationship.

I hate him already.
He doesn't deserve my anger.

LYNDALL: I'm with you there,
100 percent.

I try to show up as the best person
that I can be, so,

there's no point in harbouring
any resentment or anger.

I'm just going to forgive the guy.
We live, we learn.

Let's just move on.

(GASPS) Mel!

I don't know who to hug first!

MELINDA: The energy of the girls
and the hype of the girls tonight

was nice to see.

Hello!

Oh, hey. Nice to meet you.

I would do girls' night
any night of the week.

Hi!
(CHEERING)

Hi, baby.
It's only been a couple of days

for Claire, but still too long.
(LAUGHS)

She's such a beautiful person,
and to see her so happy

and vibrant is really good to see.

I'm really happy for her.

You look stunning.
Beautiful!

Oh, my God. You're beautiful.

(LAUGHTER)

Good to see you, hi!

(MOODY MUSIC)

I don't want to say hi to Claire.

She tried to exploit
my relationship many times.

She's attacked Harrison,
she's attacked me.

Drink, drink, drink, drink!
Hello, hello. No hello?

Hello, hi.

No. That's OK. Hello, hi.

(MOODY MUSIC)

(WARM MUSIC)

Good to see everyone again.

ALL: Cheers.
Cheers, girls. Cheers.

Yeah, we've been speaking.
I think

that we're in...

A better space.
..a really great place.

Yeah, I'm still wearing
my wedding ring,

yeah, because it's super-nostalgic
and it means a lot.

I've created a beautiful friendship
with Jesse.

We still message nearly every day,

photos of our dogs, our cats,
our lives.

I've taken so much away from this.

I've learned so much about myself

that I genuinely
did not expect to learn.

I kind of walked in going,
what's a man going to teach me?

You know, but...

Jesse felt that for sure.
Yeah, he did!

How's it been? What have I missed?

So you've missed the partner swap.
We wife and husband swapped.

It was for a different perspective
on our relationships.

So we had all of these
honesty tasks and stuff.

I was with Cam.
Lyndall was with Ollie.

I was with Rupert.
Rupert.

Duncan, and then these two swapped.

So Mel was with Harrison.

LYNDALL: It was
a massive three days. Like,

huge, huge, three days.

Very emotionally-taxing I think,
for everybody.

Well I was alone,

for three days.

Harrison went to live with Mel.

I sat around for hours

wondering what was going on,

and then I get a knock on the door,
and it's Layton.

And he's like, 'We need to have
a chat,' and I'm thinking,

oh God, what's gone on
with Mel and Harrison already?

It's been a few hours.
I was like, what's going on?

Basically he sat me down,
he was like,

'You need a glass of red for this.'

And I was like, oh God,
what is going on?

And he's like, 'I'm not moving in.'

Oh, shut up.

So, I was alone.
Shut up.

Yep.

Bronte is being very dramatic.

For starters, my husband
doesn't talk like that.

I feel like he wouldn't have done it
in that dramatised staging.

'You're going to need
a wine for this.

There's some big stuff
I've gotta tell you.

Get a wine and take a seat.

The big thing is -
do you have your wine, Bronte?

I'm not gonna do the challenge.'

He was, like, freaking out.

Don't ever talk about my husband
in a way that is not true.

Don't bring him into your drama.

No, it's not happening.
Not in front of my eyes.

You were not alone for three days.

What do you mean?
Like...

Because he still did the tasks

with you...
Oh, yeah, when I say I was alone,

he still came to do the tasks
with me.

But he didn't actually live with me.

I was upset,
but I don't actually know

what's actually gone on
over at that apartment.

So I respected his boundaries.

Melinda just seems to just
want an argument.

I mean, yesterday,
she came storming into my apartment,

pointing fingers at me,

and accused me, that I was
the reason why Layton

wasn't moving back into
his apartment.

All I know is that - well, obviously
you did come in and speak to me.

How would you describe me
coming into your place?

You were distressed
when you came in.

A hundred percent.
Yeah, and I felt like you were, like

quite cold to me. You could see

emotions, and you were very like,
'You're just gonna have to

ask your husband.'
That's what I got from you.

You were saying things like, 'Well,

Layton thinks you don't
support him, and I've got his story

so that's all I could go by,'

and it just sounded like you were
validating him the whole time.

I gave Harrison
your side to everything.

I never validated him.

I told him, 'Have an open mind,'
and he's walked back into you.

My husband didn't come back to me.

I can see...
And that's why I came in

so upset.
No, I can see how you were upset,

but I was getting
the finger pointed at me

for the reason why Layton
wasn't moving back in.

So I'm sorry
if I didn't want to listen.

I feel like Melinda is coming at me

because I am in
a secure relationship,

and because she is sad in her own.

Harrison and I,
we're in a good place,

and all I care about
right now is his opinion.

SANDY: So where would you say
your relationship is at the moment?

Harrison is...

He is a great guy,

and we do...

We are controversial.

Like, we are.

So you have feelings for Harrison?
Totally.

Yep.

I don't believe it.

Whoa!

You don't believe that?
Don't you

feel like he's manipulating you?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Sandy, for missing so much,

it feels like you've been here
the whole time.

There has never been a moment where
Harrison has emotionally manipulated

my feelings for him,
but we have had discussions

about the way
that he asks me to talk,

and the tone of my voice.

So there has been things
that we have spoken about,

but no, I don't believe that
Harrison emotionally manipulates me.

Bronte says things like that,
I'm like, are you joking?

I've heard some things Harrison said
during the experiment.

And then, even then,
Bronte is supporting that.

It just - it says a lot to me.

There was that spark
with Harrison and I from day one,

and that's all that I held onto.

The girls don't get it.

They genuinely don't believe
that my 180 with Harrison is real.

Him and I have fought tooth and nail
to be where we are right now,

and all I held onto was that spark
that we had at the wedding.

And I was like, I know that that guy
from the wedding is still there,

and he kept saying
the same thing to me.

OK.

Harrison and I have fought a lot,
but we're good.

The girls don't like him,
they never have,

so me defending him is wrong

to the girls.
I shouldn't be doing it.

And then to have Sandy say
that she doesn't believe

that my feelings are real, it's just
the biggest slap in the face.

I wish I knew why they were always
at me and Harrison. Like...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

No, I don't want to speak
to any of them.

No.

As far as I'm concerned,

tonight, I'm done.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR: Feeling she is
constantly explaining

the nuances of her relationship
with Harrison to the group,

Bronte has left girls' night
without saying goodbye.

Where is Bronte?

Is she coming back or has she left?

I don't know.

She didn't even say hello to me.
I don't know.

Bronte?

Where did Bronte go?

I've checked bathrooms,
I've checked...

She's left.
Like, 'gone' gone,

the whole venue, we reckon?

Yeah.
She's left the whole venue?

She's left the last three times
we've been...

Four times now.
Four times?

In a row.
This is the fourth time.

That's pretty disappointing.

CAITLIN: I wanted to talk to Bronte,
see her side of things.

There was not even heat on her.
We weren't even talking

about anything, and she just gets up
and leaves.

I've been in a toxic relationship
myself,

so I really wanted to go and see if
I could offer my support.

But unfortunately,
she was out of there.

Out of there. She was gone.

OK, what else happened? I feel like
I've missed out on all of it.

Oh, you've missed so much, so...

So Claire and Adam actually cheated
on each other that first week.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
That actually happened.

She cheated?

Yeah.
Claire made a mistake.

She was very accountable.

She showed how she was sorry,
tried to turn it around.

Unfortunately Jesse
couldn't get rid of it,

so they've now left.
Yep.

Shit.

I completely regretted it
instantly, and yeah.

I feel really nervous
about seeing Janelle. I haven't

spoken to her since obviously
everything that had happened

with Adam.

Maybe Janelle's thought about it.
Maybe she's still angry, you know?

And I don't know what to expect.

JANELLE:
I'm a very hot-headed person

when it comes to people doing
the wrong thing.

When Claire did the wrong thing
by kissing my husband,

I was very, very angry.

I didn't want to listen
to her apology.

I went back home and I sat on it,

and I think there's still
unfinished business between us.

(SQUEALING AND CHEERING)
(WARM MUSIC)

Sandy!
I frickin' love you.

You look so good!
Oh, my God!

Look at that eye-shadow!
Look at you!

OK, I'm going to get a drink first.
What's good to get?

It was a little bit awkward
seeing Janelle.

How have you been?
I've been good, hey.

I was happy to be home.
I had about two weeks of mourning.

I feel like that's a common thing.

But you know,
during the Friends and Family week,

my dad said not to run away
when you mess up,

and to stand
in the difficulty of it,

and I know that's
going to be really hard.

Hi, how are you?

Yeah, good.
I had two weeks of mourning

and depression, and then

I bounced right back.
Yeah.

Um...

You know, there's so many times

I should've told you,
and I could've,

and I didn't, and I was not cool.

And I respect you so much,
and I'm really sorry.

Thank you. You know, when you see
your apology versus Adam's,

you can just see how genuine you are
and how sorry you are

that you hurt me.
Honestly, I can't ask anything else.

So I don't want to hate you.

I think you are a kind person,

so you know, no hate, no bad blood.

You're an amazing woman.
Let's move on.

That just shows you as well,
and your strength of woman,

and yeah, I cannot be more grateful.

(WARM MUSIC)

Claire's apology was genuine,
and there was literally

nothing else she could have said
to make that apology better.

So, it's all water under the bridge.

I don't want any bad blood
between us.

So, why did you and Jesse leave?

OK, so we were
in a really good place.

We were trying to bring it back
to a really friendly place,

which we did, and we were like, OK,
now let's focus on romance.

And then we got to the dinner party,
and I said something to Harrison,

and he goes, 'Claire,
what the (BLEEP) do you care for?

You don't even like Jesse.

You're just here
to clear your name.'

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

And that sent Jesse
into a very downward spiral.

So he dropped a bomb
and then continued with his life?

Yeah.
He just didn't want the heat

to be on him, so he thought,
weakest link,

where can I throw this bomb?

It makes sense why he was so quick
to jump on Adam.

Harrison doesn't give
a single (BLEEP).

He didn't care.
What a piece of shit.

For someone that's made some of

the biggest mistakes in here,
Harrison seems to be

on a very, very high horse.
Get off your high horse, mate.

Yeah.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Adam, at the end of the day,
he's not sorry.

We've all known from day one
that Adam's full of shit.

(CHEERING)

Oh, (BLEEP). There he is.

How are you?
Good, good, good.

Dunc! Looking fresh.
How are you, bruv?

What's going on?

What's up?

Boys, boys, we need to hear this.

I'm here apologising -

Jesse's not even here, but I've
really apologised to him, so,

it's like, to all you guys,
I feel terrible

for my actions that night,
and how I made him feel,

and how I was selfish
in that moment.

I wasn't even thinking about him.

We had a heart to heart
out the front.

He was the only one that even spoke
to me at that dinner party,

to be honest with you guys.

I was apologetic,
and I did know my wrong.

What do you want
from this conversation, Adam?

(TENSE MUSIC)

What do you mean what do I want
from this conversation?

Well you're getting my attention,
you're stopping the room -

what do you want to get out of this?

I'm here to apologise so you guys
know that I am truly sorry

about my actions for that night,
and there's no buts involved.

It's more defensiveness, bro.
It's more defensiveness.

Just own what you did.
That's what he's doing now.

I'm completely owning it, Harrison.
OK, why are you sorry?

That's what I want to hear.
I'm sorry

for every action about it.
I'm sorry for gaslighting.

I'm sorry for kissing Claire.

I'm sorry for all that (BLEEP) shit.
You understand?

Yeah, listen, listen, - Harrison,

Harrison.

Harrison.
Adam, look, look,

you've come in here tonight,
and you had an opportunity

to just own some behaviour,
and I feel like

you just need to own what you did.

(BLEEP) sake, Harrison!

So what I see is a guy who's willing
to throw the boys

under the bus to save himself.

Why is it to save myself?
That's what you always do, Adam!

You just throw people under the bus
to save yourself!

You throw everyone under the bus -

you did it to (BLEEP) Jesse,
you did it to me and Dan,

and (BLEEP) now, man.
You're gonna

knock your wine over, mate.

You're gonna
knock your wine over, boy.

Heh.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

OK, so Janelle's the newcomer.

Has Adam reached out to you?

Adam has not reached out
to me at all.

But he did accidentally
butt dial me today.

(CHEERING)

No, he didn't!
I don't believe it!

Butt dials happen!
I butt dial people all the time.

We should all get matching t-shirts.

Butt dial.
(LAUGHTER)

It sounds like people
are not believing you.

I think everyone does believe me.
People believe her, just not

the person at fault.

Harrison showed me messages
saying the butt dial is not real.

He's such a little Gossip Girl,
isn't he?

I am never going to hear the end
of this bloody butt dial.

Harrison is sitting there like,
'Boil, boil, toil and trouble.'

Like who the (BLEEP)
does he think he is?

You just throw people under the bus

to save yourself!

You did it to (BLEEP) Jesse,

you've done it to me and Dan...
You're gonna knock your wine over.

You're gonna knock
your wine over, boy.

Heh.

The thing is, I think it's time
for you to start owning shit.

Enough said on that. See ya, pal.

You get that one.

You threw Dan under the bus.

You weren't man enough to say that
you actually got a girl's number.

Has someone got a mirror,
so I can hold it

in front of Harrison's face
so he can talk to it?

Mate, he needs to start
owning some shit.

Nah, mate.
If I'm gonna

come in here and own my shit,

I feel like Harrison needs to
own his shit for once.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

There's not a remorseful bone
in his body.

It's the truth. It's the truth.

You're not liking the truth,
are you?

Anyway, can we move on from that?
I don't even want to

talk about him anymore.
He's not worth my time.

(WOMEN LAUGHING)

So I said he was as shady
as his fake tan. I was like...

(LAUGHTER)

I love your nails.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm looking around the room,
and I'm just really in awe.

We're a bunch of beautiful girls

who encourage
and inspire each other.

It's really nice.

(GLASS CHIME)

Can I just say, isn't this just
(BLEEP) beautiful?

This unity amongst women,

supporting each other,
backing each other.

We said it at the Hens.

And no matter what challenges
we've faced, we've overcome it.

SANDY: We need a new word.
There's a bro code,

and the bro code is bullshit.

Chicks before dicks.

Yeah, the girls!

Women supporting women!

Whether you've left,
whether you're still here,

remember what you are (BLEEP) worth.
Be soft, be kind, but take no shit.

ALL: Yes!

(APPLAUSE AND CHEERING)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

We had a good girls' night.

It was a great night.
It was so nice to have a room

full of amazing, confident, strong,

beautiful women

giving amazing advice -
loving, supportive advice.

I'm feeling really proud
to know these women.

(CHEERING AND GLASSES CLINKING)

ALYSSA: Oh, I love girls' night!

Tomorrow night, the table is set
for the second last dinner party.

(CHEERING)

But one guest is missing.

No Bronte?

Where is Bronte?

Now he's doing the like,
'Woe is me.'

Where is Bronte,
and what did you do?

And...

I could be out there
for six months to a year.

..unexpected
and heartbreaking truths...

I just went into shock.
..will be revealed...

He's not considering me at all.

..that could spell the end

of Lyndall's pursuit
of her happily ever after.

So do you see
a future outside of here?

Um...

Before...

I try and support you.
You don't let me.

Why would I not support you?

HARRISON: The dinner party took
an unexpected turn into Fun Town.

And I'm all about having fun.

It's Melinda versus Layton...

How do you think you made Mel feel
when you said that?

..versus Harrison.

How are you helping
by saying rubbish like that?

What are you doing?
Tit-for-tat?

Will his meddling...

I'm gonna do a Bronte.
..claim yet another couple?
