Original subtitles

Retreat! Couples retreat - let's go!

TRISTAN: We're off to Byron!

Crystals, hippies and Hemsworths - yes.

This is so nice!

WOMAN: What could possibly go wrong? (ECHOES)

SARA: I have some information about Jack.

He kissed me on my neck.

TIMOTHY: Jack kissed you on the neck?

LAUREN: Tonight, when Jack's out with the boys...

Boys' night!

..we need to tell Tori.

TORI: Jack and I are in a good place.

I do feel trust and safety.

SARA: We've gotta tell her.

(BLEEP).

(DARK, FROSTY MUSIC)

Alright, I need to have a chat with Tori and Sara,

if you guys don't mind.

Sorry, guys, we'll be back.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

Does anyone know what this is about? No.

I guess ask when they come back.

OK, so, like, obviously, more stuff about Jack's come up.

I was nervous before we told her what we knew about Jack

because I was worried

that she was either just going to shut the conversation down

or get angry with us and think that we were, like, attacking her.

As... This is making me feel sick, OK?

As your friends, we just need to tell you...

..because it's gonna come out anyway.

Just feels like it's important

to let Tori know because she needs to know all the facts.

She needs to know all the facts of what we all know

so then she can make her decision on what she wants to do

with her relationship based on the truth.

So, we need to tell you what the information is, what we have heard,

what's going on because, as your friends, if you hear it elsewhere,

then we're shitty friends that haven't given you all the facts.

Go on.

Um, I feel like, and maybe I'm in my head,

but, like, Jack's been, like, overly, like, flirty with me.

And then...

..there was a comment made at the gym about him saying to Tim, like,

"You've got, like, the hottest wife on the show."

(FOREBODING MUSIC)

And then, after that comment was made,

we were in the hall and Tim and I were going to the spa, and, um...

..he said hello to Tim and Tim walked in front of me

and, as I walked off, he kinda lightly smacked my butt.

I was like, "That just happened. I just need you to know that."

And then the second thing was when we were at the dinner party

and he came and apologised to you

and then apologised to me, he, like, kissed my neck.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

I was like, I feel like I'm questioning myself here,

I am, and I'm like...

But I shouldn't because I feel like those things happened

that made me feel a certain way,

and the only reason I'm now bringing it up

is because of all the other things that have happened

that have tied together.

Um...

Yeah, I'm genuinely still processing the...what was said.

But I just feel like

it's, like, blow after blow at this point, and it's getting a lot.

We felt the need to bring it to you first

before it became a group situation.

And it doesn't need to be a group situation.

But it will be.

You know it will be a group situation.

Oh, God, this just spells carnage, disaster.

So, I feel like, as your mates, like,

even if we were on the outside, I'd be like, "Girl.

"Like, you've gotta look at this and go, alright, something's up."

No, like, this...

This information pisses me off.

This is shit. This is so shit.

This is just, like, another thing to battle through.

Like, I didn't know I was going to war.

I thought I was going to find a husband.

I was scared shitless to say this to you,

but I really...like, whatever you need now, just let us know.

We have got you, 100%.

Please know that this comes from a good place.

We care so much about you.

I see you have genuine feelings.

I know how raw and real you are.

Oh, God, there's just, like, my...

something in my bones.

Yeah, same. Just the rattling, you know?

Tonight...

EDEN: I found being at the retreat a little bit difficult

'cause I feel like I'm holding a lot back.

Eden...

I've received this information that I didn't want.

..has...

I'm feeling so uncomfortable and so anxious.

..a secret.

I don't know what to do.

Information so damaging...

That can affect a lot of people in here.

..it will derail the entire experiment.

I'm stuck with either losing all the friendships I have in here

or I keep it to myself and lose my relationship with Jayden.

Whoo!

(SNIFFLING)

(RAUCOUS LAUGHTER)

At the Hinterland House in Byron Bay,

the girls' night is winding down

just in time for the boys to return home.

Hello!

Hey, ladies. Hey!

Whoo! The strippers!

Oh, strippers.

Strippers, strippers, strippers!

TORI: So, when the boys walked through the door,

they were pretty, like, happy and I was like, "Can't relate."

JACK: What's goin' on, wifey? Good to see you.

I just wanted to really bring that happiness down a few notches

because I was feeling pretty deflated

when I had that chat with the girls.

So, I wanted to pull Jack straight away and be like,

"What the (BLEEP) is going on?"

(FRAUGHT MUSIC)

So...

..Lauren and Sara pulled me aside.

And they said that...

..at the gym, about, like, you saying to Sara

that, like, she's, like, the hottest wife in the experiment,

and then there was a situation in the hallway

where you brushed past Sara and, like, touched her arse,

and she feels like you're flirty with her and, like,

there was a moment where you, like, had kissed her on the neck.

Um...

I don't even want to comment on it. That's so ridiculous.

I need something a bit more than that.

Um...

I'm not a pushover. I'm not a fool.

I don't have my rosy-coloured glasses on.

If I've got a problem, I'll say something.

And what was the thing...what has Sara said, I kissed her on the neck?

Yeah.

I try not to kiss 'em on the... anywhere near the cheek anyway.

This is so ridiculous.

Like, make-up, (BLEEP),

it's awkward and I just sort of do it and I let them kiss me normally.

This is just so ridiculous.

What else did Sara say? I flirted with her?

No, I think it was, like,

you brushed past and, like, touched her arse.

This is an ordeal.

This is hilarious.

(CLEARS THROAT)

If I did brush her bum, it's an absolute accident.

I can't stand Sara.

You know I can't stand Sara.

She's not my kind of person at all, whatsoever.

Oh, my God.

Did you say she was the hottest wife in the...in here?

So...

So, Jono... This...

Maybe, like, I think I said she's the most striking.

Like, she would stand out the most like a red Ferrari kind of thing.

That's so out of context.

God, she's lookin' for some clout.

Who? Sara.

I don't know. I don't know.

Like, it's another thing.

It just feels ridiculous talking about it.

I'm mentally fatigued over it.

I'm sick of having the same conversations.

Like, issue after issue after issue

that Jack and I are dealing with, and it weighs really heavy.

Honestly, I'm just really worried that, at final vows,

I'm gonna be standing under a tree and you're gonna walk away from me.

No.

I would never do that to you.

I think it's hilarious.

This is actually a joke.

My anxiety's never been higher.

And, if I feel like I'm being done dirty, I will cut and run.

I'm not buying into this.

It's all...they're all just chasing clout.

It's a (BLEEP) shitshow.

(VOICE BREAKS, BEGINS TO SOB)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

It's the final day

of the Married at First Sight couples retreat in Byron Bay.

JADE: Babe, you're so hot!

A getaway designed to give them

quality time together outside of the confines of their domestic routine.

LAUREN: How'd you sleep?

I got a solid four hours.

Where the couples can build trust and renew their intimacy.

Oh, I feel...

And the retreat has been especially good

for one couple's emotional connection.

Your brick walls crumbling down

has been my favourite bit of this retreat, you know, just seeing you

show up the way that you have, I just think it's been awesome.

Yeah, thanks.

Timothy had an emotional breakthrough yesterday.

Everyone has an anchor.

And for the first time in their relationship,

he realised that Lucinda could be the anchor he's been missing.

(BOTH HUM CONTENTEDLY)

Just feel like so many walls came down tonight.

It was a real turnaround.

The hug that we had yesterday

was one of my most favourite hugs in my life.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

It's not easy.

You know, it's a lot and it sort of rattled me.

That's been one of my favourite things

is just seeing him for his true essence.

It's been really inspiring.

I wanted to read you the poem I wrote about you.

A beautiful buoy bobbing alone out at sea,

hardened by so much loss, no family.

Defending himself against the glow of life and love,

shielding himself from the stormy weathers above.

A divine and perfect soul with scars so deep,

his survival and self is the prize he has reap.

I'm here, I'm showing up, I'm alive, I'm awake.

I'm as real as (BLEEP) and the opposite of fake.

I want to share what's possible, my legacy to help others through.

Wow.

No, thank you.

I really appreciate it. Come here.

Proud of you.

Look, I had a pretty, pretty big incident yesterday,

and, yeah, I appreciated she was worried about me

and I felt very vulnerable,

but Lucinda made me feel like I was safe.

I've actually got to know her on a completely different level,

and the poem was really special.

It capped the retreat off.

I do think this is a really good growth.

Yeah.

Yeah, we've had some breakthroughs,

and I feel like Tim and I are really in a beautiful place.

I've got some quiches in the oven I've gotta go check.

Whoo! (BLEEP)!

Shit.

Inside, it's a different mood for Sara and Tim,

as Tim has just found out that his wife is accusing his friend, Jack,

of being inappropriate with her.

I told Tori...

Like, Lauren and I sat Tori down

and I brought up, like, what I told you about Jack,

just not feeling like some of the comments he's made or, like,

the things that have happened in passing were exactly appropriate.

I don't know what's going on, man, hey?

Obviously, I'm pissed. I'm not happy about it.

I mean, like, this whole situation is pretty triggering for me.

I don't like hearing my wife feels uncomfortable about another guy.

But then also, like, I've been cheated on before

and, Jack, he knows that.

He's kissing my wife on the neck, you know,

and we're supposed to be mates.

Like...

How did Tori seem when you told her?

She's like, "Oh, well, this pisses me off.

"Like, it pisses me off." Mm.

And Lauren was like, "It's good to see, like, you finally,

"like, having that emotion towards, like, something that Jack's done."

I haven't gotten a chance to properly speak to her

after the night, but I feel like she's, like, finally hearing us,

and can see Jack a little bit more for who he actually is,

and what we feel like is happening in their relationship.

I'm curious to know if that, like,

conversation happened with Jack and her.

Yeah, it probably would've happened.

Yeah.

I'm worried.

(JACK SMACKS LIPS)

How are you feeling?

Um...

(TENSE MUSIC)

I was really excited to come to the retreat.

Um...

(JACK CLEARS THROAT) But it's been really tough.

I think last night was, like, the last bit of fight I had left in me.

Yeah.

It upsets me that she's a bit hurt at the moment,

but people are always out for blood and this is what it's all about.

It's not fun but I know who I am and I know my character,

and I think my wife does.

We can get through this, absolutely.

I just need to, you know, reassure her and make her feel safe.

The biggest thing is, like, I feel, like, disappointed.

Yeah.

I know you're pissed off.

Of course, you're gonna be with what's gone on with those girls.

All I could do last night was defend, tell the truth.

You heard my side and I think you know,

that shit Sara was saying, it's absolute BS.

I've never had a conversation with Sara,

let alone had any intent towards her.

Yeah.

(SIGHS) Um...

But I've got no question with where I stand with you

and how I feel about you.

I do know that.

Yeah.

Like, you're lucky I'm thick-skinned and strong or you'd be screwed.

Um...

That's why I'm still here and I'm happy to cop some heat.

I'm happy to get dragged through the mud a little bit

with people that want to yap, you know, want to chat about shit

and drag me through the mud when they don't have the full context.

I'll do that for you.

I woke up still feeling pretty, like, flat about it all.

Um...

But, what the girls told me last night,

I don't believe that to be true.

I know how Jack feels about Sara.

I'm very, very, very shocked if there's any truth to that.

Very shocked.

Look, I feel, like, weird at the moment

with where we stand with the group now.

Um...

I'm not, um, I don't know, it's not where my mindset is, anyway.

I mean, if you have relations and whatnot in the group, it's great.

But, like, you know what's up.

You're intelligent, you make good decisions, so, you know,

if you're standing by me and we're happy in our relationship,

obviously, we know each other more than anyone else knows us,

we know what goes on, they should stay out of it and just trust you.

Yeah.

Those girls aren't helping themself in any stretch of the imagination.

No.

I do feel like Lauren and Sara are betting on

this, like, blowing up and not working.

But I know what I'm doing.

I have a great intuition.

I trust Jack and, yeah, I do have strong feelings for Jack,

and my feelings haven't wavered.

I stick by you and I'll continue to stick by you.

(FRAUGHT MUSIC)

Um, that's admirable and it's very attractive and I appreciate it.

You're welcome.

I'm gonna give you a kiss.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

Coming up...

(FOOTSTEPS CRUNCH)

A bombshell secret.

(EDEN SOBS)

(TRANQUIL MUSIC)

Following an emotional breakthrough yesterday

that brought them closer than ever before,

Lucinda's decided to take Timothy on a tour of her home town

to show him all it has to offer.

We're coming down, like, kind of the guts of Byron Bay.

Yeah, this is cool.

This is, like, old-school. Yeah.

So awesome to be in Byron.

I like that. You look so cute.

Tim and I are getting along like a house on fire.

What do you think of that?

Who are you supposed to be?

Jack.

I mean, of course, we always have such a laugh.

I feel like some pretty big walls came down yesterday,

and today I can really feel the effort that he's putting in.

Lucinda! We're gonna go on the seat?

Oh, it's iconic Byron Bay.

At some point, you've gotta sit on this seat and wish for the best.

Lucinda's been great.

What do you think of the cafe name Orgasmic Food?

Yeah, it's cool.

She's a special person.

Finally, I'm seeing her in her natural habitat.

Wait till our first bite and we have an orgasm, wait until that happens.

She is a free spirit and I'm loving it.

Nobody likes shoes here, eh?

No, we're a bunch of bare-footers.

No shoes.

Nuh, see!

He's got a pair.

He must be rich.

Hi, Schnauzy!

The retreat has been surprisingly a lot of fun.

Yeah, it's been good.

You could get matching hoodies, father and son!

That's a really good idea.

He'll love that.

Over the course of the experiment,

it's been really up and down for me and Lucinda.

But now we're in a really good place, best spot we've ever been in.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

Things are heating up in Byron Bay for the last day of the retreat,

and our couples are taking the opportunity

to have some fun by the pool.

For Lauren and Jonathan, the retreat

has given them a good opportunity to rekindle their relationship

after Lauren admitted to the experts

that she has been struggling to connect with her husband.

I think I am struggling with that spark with our personalities.

I feel like we are missing

a bit of that, like, banter, a bit of that back and forth.

I see you with other people

and you just become this different happy, bubbly person.

Yeah.

But then with me it's just like, boop.

I think I became, like, a little bit resentful

'cause Jono and I continue to argue about the muzzle comment.

Well, any wonder the banter's not there.

You know, banter isn't just automatic.

Yeah.

That comes when you're in rapport with each other,

when you've connected.

Is that something you're able to do?

I'm willing to do that.

We were obviously

very physically attracted to each other from day one.

I think we're both holding onto this hope that we can get back there.

I think the retreat's, like, perfect timing for us.

It gives us a chance to, like, refocus and, like, recalibrate

and, like, get back to, like, having fun together.

This is what we've been needing to do for...for weeks.

Yeah, true.

'Cause, at the end of the day, like, we came here to find a relationship,

so I feel like we just need to stick together.

I do want to spend more time with Lauren.

She's funny.

She has an amazing personality.

I've got feelings for her.

So, the retreat has been a great place to repair things between us.

Ready, set, go.

Since the commitment ceremony,

we both just seem to be connecting together.

Oh!

This is the closest we've been in weeks.

Oh...

How would you feel about a week in Perth at my apartment?

I'd love that.

I'm keen, let's do it.

Yeah, let's do it.

Like, there are genuine feelings there for Jono,

and I feel like we're back to going in the right direction,

and I'm excited to do that.

Despite the poolside fun...

(LAUGHTER)

That'll ruin me tan.

..not everyone is enjoying themselves.

I hate sitting around the pool.

Really? Yeah, I (BLEEP) hate it.

(LAUGHTER)

Just being around all these very good-looking people.

This is, like, the most uncomfortable I've been

in, like, these kind of settings ever.

I hate pools.

I wish I didn't have to worry about taking my shirt off, you know,

or people looking at me like I'm a freak.

I hate being the dude with, like, weight issues.

It (BLEEP) sucks, it makes you feel so weird.

Like, it's just really annoying.

I wish I could just feel confident.

As a body-conscious Tristan remains on the sidelines,

Timothy wants to share with Sara and Lauren a shocking incident

that happened at the pool yesterday involving his good mate, Tristan.

Tell me what you think of this. Mm.

Yesterday, Tristan didn't want to go down to the pool.

Yeah.

Because he's really body-conscious, and so I said,

"Come on, buddy, let's go sit in the pool area just for 20 minutes."

Yeah. And he's like, "OK."

So, he went down, I just...

I had my shirt off and laying on the concrete.

Lucinda was there laying on the other chair.

And our favourite guy, Jack, walks in and said,

"Oh, I see the whales are here today."

No, he did not. What the (BLEEP)?

Um... That's so (BLEEP) rude.

What a pig.

Yeah, he's a pig.

That's disgusting.

That's so (BLEEP)-up. I can't.

I sort of lifted my head,

and then I looked at Tristan and I don't know...

he had his glasses on so I don't know whether he heard it.

Yeah.

To make that comment when you've got a few people

that are really body-conscious, I don't know who it was directed at.

Oh, but it doesn't matter, you don't make those comments, period.

No.

Look, comment could've been at me. I'm not perfect.

But it doesn't matter who it is, you know?

Body shaming, it's a pretty shit thing.

Not everyone here has a perfect body, me included,

and, as a personal trainer, it's a real shit thing to say.

He's actually, like...

He can't help but be this (BLEEP) person, hey?

That's who he is. It's who he is.

Yeah.

Tori needs to understand that he is not a nice person.

I know. Like, he's misogynistic, he's rude.

He pisses me off.

Yep, 100%.

The original issue was, you know, is Jack into Tori?

But now we're just trying to figure out is Jack just a shit person?

Coming up...

Did you say that?

I did but no context.

You did? The gloves are off.

You know what, you're a shit (BLEEP) person.

I don't give a (BLEEP) what you think, mate.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(LIGHT, AIRY MUSIC)

Let's start with three big, deep breaths together.

Big inhalation.

And let it all go, anything you're holding onto.

Ah, let it all go.

After the drama of the first two days of the retreat,

this morning, Lucinda has decided to run a spiritual workshop

that she hopes will bring the group in touch with themselves

and each other.

Let's get the wrists involved.

Love a good wristy, don't you?

(LAUGHTER)

I really wanted to get this gorgeous bunch of people together

where everybody can just let go, loosen up, have a laugh,

just allowing conversation to flow and seeing what emerges.

We're getting into the sensuality.

Ooh, a bit of...

Oh, Jayden! Oh!

Come on, let's pull a Jayden. We're going rogue.

JAYDEN: What happens on retreat stays on retreat.

Ay-yi-yi-yi!

Look at Jayden.

Yeah, we're incredibly lucky to have someone like Lucinda in the group.

She brings the energy and the positivity and the vibes

and I think we all need that.

And you just want to find your unique tree.

Tim!

(LAUGHTER)

I mean, like, even Timothy's having a good time.

He looked like a Power Ranger crossed with the Blue Wiggle.

(LAUGHTER)

And then I'm just going to relax over,

and you just shape your body or do whatever you want.

Don't stress me!

(GUTTURAL MOAN)

(LAUGHTER) Tim!

Nice and gentle.

The idea is not to be a bull and a buck, you know what I mean?

(LAUGHTER)

ANDREA: You're scaring me! Never have sex with him!

LUCINDA: I was gonna say he looks like quite the ride.

(LAUGHTER)

We're gonna have a boogie.

Just a moment of expression, guys, don't hold back.

ANDREA: Lucinda just brings people closer together.

You guys are awesome.

The world needs a bit more Lucinda.

We need to share Lucinda with the world.

(MUSIC WITH RHYTHMIC DRUMS AND TAMBOURINES)

(EXCITED CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)

While the group enjoys their newfound closeness,

Eden is taking some time away from everybody else

after receiving a text message

from one of the other participants containing a bombshell revelation.

(SINISTER MUSIC, HAPPY CRY)

Yeah, I found being at the retreat a little bit difficult, I guess.

I do feel quite uncomfortable in these group settings.

It's just out of my comfort zone, that's for sure.

And I've had, um, quite a bit of stress and anxiety

over a few things that are on my mind.

I feel like I'm holding a lot back.

Um, I've been given information that I didn't want.

(LAUGHTER)

That's a secret that can affect a lot of people in here.

(SINISTER MUSIC CONTINUES)

And it makes me not want to hang out with everyone

because I'm feeling so uncomfortable and so anxious.

I don't know what to do.

I don't...

(CONTEMPLATIVE MUSIC)

And while Eden struggles with what to do about the secret she knows...

We'll go here.

..Sara has decided to take Tim away from the group

after his underwhelming reaction to hearing her accuse his friend, Jack,

of being inappropriate towards her.

(SARA SQUEALS)

I do, kind of, expect him to have an opinion

about what's happened with Jack.

It's been, like, the biggest thing for us this whole experiment

is the, like, not supporting me, not stepping up, not speaking up,

yeah, not feeling...like, having an opinion about things that matter.

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

Their difference in communication styles

has been something that Sara has flagged since the beginning.

Yeah.

I am a big personality,

and I've always wanted someone that's gonna match my energy

in that sense.

The main message I sort of got from it was, like,

I feel like I needed to step up to more of an assertive role.

Yeah.

But, despite promising to be more assertive for her,

when the opportunity arose during the first night of the retreat...

He has not tried for three weeks. Can you just relax for a second?

No, because you're making no sense to me 'cause you're shallow.

..Tim failed to come to her defence yet again...

You shut up right now, you're getting on my nerves.

What is your problem?

..leaving Sara worried that Tim might never come through for her.

Yeah.

What is going on?

Tim's just, like, laying there,

not saying anything, and I'm just sick of it.

Like, it makes me feel like

he doesn't care enough to get angry about something.

Like, what Jack's done to me

should be enough for him to be, like, furious.

I'm frustrated and upset at Jack,

but I'm not gonna blow up about it, you know, like...

That sort of aggressive conversation behaviour, like, that's not me.

I'm constantly telling her, like, "I do have your back."

"I'm trying my best," and she's saying it's not enough.

So, I'm battling between, like,

being the person that she wants me to be and not changing who I am.

Tonight, I expect him to, like, put his foot down and, like, tell Jack,

like, "Mate, that's not on and, like, this should never happen."

It really does shit me

that people can't see what's right and what's wrong sometimes.

Like, Jack's married and that shouldn't be taken lightly.

That's something you shouldn't support.

It's been hours since Eden took some time out from the group,

but she's still struggling with the scandalous secret

that she's been entrusted with.

Mm!

What's goin' on in here?

He found the snacks. He found the snacks.

Bye. No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

No, you have your guys' chat, don't worry about it.

Since we've been here, Eden hasn't been her usual self.

She does get a bit nervous and anxious in social situations.

She doesn't often get these anxiety attacks, if you want to call them,

it doesn't happen very often and, when it does, it's never this bad.

I'm not sure why that is,

so I've gotta check in on her, make sure that she's OK.

I'm not gonna try and push her too much.

I'm hoping that she'll open up when she's ready.

But, for now, all I can do is sort of comfort her

and tell her, "It's gonna be OK."

Thank you.

Hands in pockets.

Like this.

Jiggle, jiggle, jiggle.

Do you want water? Do you want a drink?

Nuh, I'm all good.

Oh!

Oh, it's actually a pretty soft bed.

You know what would be nice to have now, a spa.

I'm feeling absolutely terrible.

I feel so guilty.

Like, the only person I'm really close with in here is Jayden,

so I don't want to lie,

but this information can affect a lot of people in here.

That's why I feel like that's probably why

it's getting me a little bit stressed.

I've been put in a position where I'm either sharing the information

and probably losing all the friendships I have in here...

..or I keep it to myself and then

I probably lose my relationship with Jayden for lying to him.

So, yeah, I feel like I'm in a lose-lose situation.

(NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

As the Byron Bay retreat draws to a close...

Darlin', lookin' deece.

Love the white and the tan.

..the couples are getting ready for the final night dinner and drinks.

I don't want it to be the last night.

I had a really great time.

I reckon we'll have some fun.

(INTROSPECTIVE MUSIC)

I'm really nervous and anxious about tonight.

Knowing that I hold information about someone in the group...

Sound good?

..that is so explosive.

Today has been a really emotional time for me trying to work out

what's the right thing to do and what's the wrong thing to do.

But it's not something I'm comfortable to share at the moment,

so, tonight, I kinda don't want to chat too much,

I just want to kinda keep to myself as much as possible

because the pressure of this secret is pretty overwhelming,

to be honest.

Someone else who is keen to avoid any dramas tonight is Jack.

Do you think Sara will say anything to you tonight

based on what she had to say to me last night?

I'm gonna give her no credibility for anything she's said.

There's obviously nothing to apologise for.

I don't really want to hear from her.

Yeah.

"I'm happy in my relationship, work on your own."

Jack definitely crossed a line with me.

(FRAUGHT MUSIC)

I want Tim to have my back and call Jack out on his behaviour.

Tim and I have had this conversation so many times, and he has...

I couldn't have been clearer in what I need from him.

I got your back. I know.

I actually, like, I'm really happy

because I feel like you've just been, like, reassuring me

that you do and, like, that's made me feel, like, more comfortable

going into tonight.

Yeah.

I want to believe he's being truthful,

but, if he doesn't stand up for me tonight,

like, it's kind of a big, like, make or break for our relationship.

I know Sara wants me to defend her, but...

Yeah.

I'm definitely not really a super confrontational person.

I'm not too sure if I can meet her expectations,

and so I'm just feeling a little bit apprehensive, I think.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

The last night!

We did it!

The night is gorgeous.

Cass is gorgeous.

Oh, back at you!

(CORK POPS)

Do you want one of these? No... Oh, look, yes.

We'll start off with some bubbles.

Ow!

Ow, ow, ow!

I would describe tonight as actually

quite a nice, celebratory kind of vibe, you know?

Everyone seems in quite good spirits.

(SINGS PLAYFULLY) I love Tori!

I want morey! (LAUGHTER)

And adding to those good vibes,

Timothy has a surprise for his bestie, Tristan.

Can you wait here for 30 seconds?

Yeah, I can wait here 30 seconds, Dad.

30 seconds.

Last dad said that, they didn't bring back the milk, you know, so...

He brought a matching hoodie with Byron Bay on it for him and Tristan.

Oh, that's cute! That's so adorable.

That's so cute.

He's really adopted him.

It's the son he never had or something.

Tim really has come so far at the retreat.

What did you get me? This looks cool.

I can just feel that he's opening and softening.

He's just winning hearts and it's just lovely to watch.

It's gonna be self-explanatory.

Oh, I love jumpers, you know that.

Look.

We got matching hoodies.

We've got matching hoodies!

We've got the same hoodies.

That's so cute!

Oh, I need to put it on now, no excuse.

As you can see, I've got my Byron Bay jumper on.

Papa got us a matching jumper, surprised me.

It was bloody adorable.

I love Timothy. Oi, Jono. What?

Papa and me have got matching hoodies.

I know.

We've got father and son hoodies.

We are looking good, we are looking good.

Tristan's my boy.

He's my favourite guy out of everybody.

You know, I've got a lot of time for Tristan.

He's just...

He's just genuinely got a big heart.

Father and son hoodies.

Oh! Oh, my goodness.

I hung out with Tristan a lot,

it's just that protective thing,

and especially after the whale comment from Jack,

and I'm not lettin' it go.

What's goin' on, big dog?

I was with Tristan all day yesterday by the pool

and, you know, he's body-conscious.

Yeah, yeah.

And then Jack walked in and said, "Oh, the whales are here today."

"The whales are here today," yeah.

And you heard it and you said, "That's a bit rough."

Arrogance of that statement.

Yeah. Like, that...

That's up there with puttin' a muzzle on

because not everyone here looked like (BLEEP) out of 'Love Island',

you know, and a few people are conscious about it.

To make an arsehole comment like that...

It was really rough.

I've had enough of him. Yeah.

Timothy's not the only one who has an issue with Jack.

TIM: Very worried about coming into tonight.

I know Sara wants me to defend her

and hold Jack accountable for his actions in public.

Obviously, if Jack's kissing my wife on the neck with bad intentions,

I'm not happy about it.

I need to bring it up with him.

But Jack is very articulate and he's very good with his words,

so I'm not looking forward to confronting him.

But it has to be done.

Look, Jack.

(DYNAMIC, TENSE MUSIC)

I've got a bone to pick with you.

(SOFT CHATTER)

(NECK CRACKING)

Jack, I've got a bone to pick with you.

No worries.

How about you explain...?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Look, Jack.

You've made my wife feel uncomfortable.

I've sort of brushed it off to her

and I apologise to you for not, like, taking it seriously.

So, over the course of the experiment,

you've done a few things.

You said over-the-top compliments to Sara.

(MUSIC RACES)

You know, and...

..tapped her on the arse.

Oh!

It's like a chain of events and then...

This is bullshit. I'm still speaking.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

Alright, alright.

And kind of the nail in the coffin for me...

..she said that you kissed her on the neck.

MICHAEL: Whoa.

TIMOTHY: Jesus.

It's made her feel uncomfortable. She doesn't like it at all.

Oh!

MICHAEL: He kissed her on the neck?

I would never kiss my friend's wife on the neck.

That's, like... That's just...

That's weird.

When did I kiss her on the neck?

(ALARMING MUSIC)

At the dinner party!

Wrong thing to do and you need to know, like, you can't be doing that.

I didn't even realise I did it.

I am awkward when I kiss people on the cheek,

make-up, all the rest of it.

I just sort of lean in.

Um, I actually thought I...

Um, yeah, anyway, so I didn't even realise I had done that.

The butt tap, when did I tap you on the butt?

Tim and I were going to the spa, you said hi to Tim,

Tim walked to the front, you gave me a light tap on the butt.

Can't even remember it.

Can only imagine it was, like, absolute accidental.

Didn't mean anything by it.

But, like, you know what, I, in my head, was like,

"Am I just (BLEEP) imagining this?"

But then in those moments, I was like, might have been an accident,

questioning myself,

but all of these other things that have been happening...

..I'm thinking, maybe that was, like, a purposeful thing.

I can assure you it's not.

There's no intent there or anything like that.

It's ridiculous. Just scratchin', man, like...

Sara likes a bit of drama.

I think she's attracted to confrontation.

That conversation to me is absolute rubbish.

It's made up.

I got no time for that kind of bullshit.

It's unacceptable.

But, if that has happened and you've felt like that...

Yeah.

OK, Sara, I apologise.

OK.

Tim really stepped up tonight.

Like, when I went to go speak and he was like,

"No, I got this," I was like, "Damn!"

It was just so sexy.

He was so articulate.

He was so firm, so assertive.

I'm just sitting back, like, yeah, that's my man.

So, what do you think she's done?

She's kind of twisted Tim against me tonight.

I think he put on a show for Sara tonight

and he's lucky I let him have it.

Yeah, I...

I apologise.

(GENTLY JOLTING MUSIC)

Tim, thank you for calling me out.

I apologise to you, as well.

I don't give a (BLEEP) what you think, mate.

You know what, you're a shit (BLEEP) person,

and the reason you're a shit (BLEEP) person, and I didn't want to say,

when we were at the pool yesterday, you had the audacity to walk in

and go, "Oh, what, are the whales here today?"

Ooh.

It's a (BLEEP) joke.

TIMOTHY: Girls, is that a joke?

That's not a joke.

When you say, "Here come the whales," whales insinuates fat.

ANDREA: Jack, if you called me a whale...

..my God, it's not OK.

It's not even funny to joke about.

Jack, did you say that? I would never...

I would never directly call anyone a whale.

These are just cheap shots.

Like, there's banter happening all over the place.

But that, like, the whale comment's kind of a body image attack.

That's just not right. That's body shaming.

That's not on at all. It's body shaming.

Yeah, it's body shame, man.

It's out of context.

So...

Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack.

Yeah, it's a shit (BLEEP) stack.

It's, yeah, it's one bit of shit piled on another.

None of us like it.

Yeah, he can't explain himself.

Did you say that?

I...I did but no context.

You did?

What's the context?

It was said, what was the context?

I honestly think I was probably saying it to Ridge.

Nuh, nuh.

I'm like, brah, you're on your own.

Like, I can't support someone who's like that.

I don't remember hearing it. If it was said, it was bad.

Ridge wasn't there. That's... It's...

That's deflection again.

Why did you say it?

I think it was to Tristan, Timothy.

MAN: Was it at a guy? JACK: I don't know.

The problem is, if someone heard that

and maybe they are harboured it,

they're gonna take that to heart and that can affect their mental...

You know, it's a body image attack.

That's...

That's not banter 'cause nobody talks back at it.

That's just hangin' shit, mate.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

You know how shit it is

being the only dude that has, like, body insecurities?

It's the comments like that that (BLEEP) me up.

I hate pools.

I hate taking my shirt off.

And you've rocked up being like, "Oh, look at all the whales here."

Like, that's just... But that's just... Oh, whatever, whatever.

If I've said that, yeah, outrageous banter, like,

absolute banter bullshit and it's not the only banter I hear here.

That's a deflection bullshit.

Have I directed that at anyone?

Well...

Have I directed that at anyone? You don't say it.

There was a bunch of people laying around the pool,

but the guys were him and me that heard it,

and I was literally like, "That's a bit rough."

It's all banter.

There are things that aren't banter

like walking up to a bunch of people who are laying with their rigs out.

So much banter that goes...

This is bullshit.

This was banter.

Banter is back and forward.

Have a go, mate, have a go.

Shut up. Huh?

Just shut up. Hey!

Here he goes again.

It's just one thing after another.

And it's, like, blow after blow at this point, and I've had enough.

Jack, Jack!

Stop.

How am I meant to answer these questions?

Stop. I'm trying to answer them honestly.

I'm not gonna sit here and have my shit called out...

Stop.

Lauren, would you say...?

Everybody does!

So, I'm allowed to stand up and say my piece.

I actually cannot sit here for much longer.

Whatever, Lauren.

It's the answer.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

You know what? I'm done with this.

Jack...

I'm not gonna sit here and have my shit called out when it's not true.

Lauren, would you say...?

Everybody does.

The night started OK.

Whatever, Lauren. It's the answer.

But there are big, feisty characters.

Jack, Jack!

And, you know, I don't like all the drama.

I'm done with this.

It's making me feel anxious.

(MUSIC BUILDS)

What a night.

(DISQUIETING MUSIC)

What a night.

How are you doin'?

I just feel like there's just always something.

Yeah, well...

You know me, there's never any malice.

I've always said Jack is not a malicious person.

But that comment is completely malicious.

I've never really felt, like, a deep disappointment in him

but, like, that, I was like, "Why?"

Like, that is just so... it's so unacceptable.

It goes against everything that he says he stands for.

Like, his line of work.

The fact is I have the target on my back.

(STRANGE MUSIC)

They've gone and plotted...

The guys that are having trouble in their relationships

with their girls and this is why they're doing this, obviously.

Like, who picked it up?

Tell me who picked it up, my comment at the pool?

Who picked it up?

Timothy, but it doesn't matter who picked it up.

I know but that's just proven the point, I've got a target on my back.

But it makes you look like a (BLEEP) idiot.

Yeah.

I don't sit here and premeditate,

I don't sit here and worry, I just live, and it was not...

What did I say? I'll say it again. It wasn't directed at anyone.

Each week, when you say, "Put a muzzle on Lauren."

Tells me to shut up.

Every week when you say...

and then you say the whale, it's a character trait.

It's not (BLEEP) banter.

At least we said our piece and that's it,

that's all we needed to do was say our piece.

Tori can make the decision based off all of that.

You hear them? Yeah.

Do you know what, end of the day, that is (BLEEP) noise to me...

..'cause I'm here for you.

And after this experiment,

I'm not going and hanging out with these people

or calling these people or proving myself to these people, you know?

It's you.

(EMOTIVE PIANO MUSIC)

So, I'm here for you.

I care for you.

We are here with these people.

None of them (BLEEP) like you.

And the list is growing.

It's quite, like, fatiguing to have all these things come out.

I feel like I look like an idiot 'cause I'm backing him constantly.

I know the externals are tough

but I see us getting through to final vows, 100%.

(APPREHENSIVE MUSIC)

So, that's why I can keep face right now

'cause I know that wouldn't break you.

We all make mistakes.

(UNEASY MUSIC)

All I can do is apologise.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Move on, you know, right now.

There's only so many times you can say sorry

before the word sorry doesn't stick.

(SNIFFLES)

You don't have to support me just because you're my wife,

only do it if you feel it's right.

I can't support that, Jack.

I cannot support that.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(TENSE MUSIC)

Whoo!

(LAUGHTER)

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

EDEN: Listening to everyone right now, it's making me feel anxious.

We get to a place called Orgasmic Food.

It was amazing. (ECHOES)

I'm feeling really upset and guilty, as well.

Because, obviously, I know a secret about someone in the group

and what they've done.

(EXAGGERATED LAUGHTER)

And it's really, really bad.

(BLEEP), I'll make it up to you every day if I have to. (ECHOES)

I found it really hard to be here tonight.

I just really, really strongly feel that it needs to come out.

Um, yeah, I'm scared it's too much.

(FOOTSTEPS CRUNCH)

(EDEN SOBS)

(SOBBING CONTINUES)

(RAUCOUS LAUGHTER)

(LAUGHTER) Oh, my...

(EDEN'S VOICE SHAKES)

(DISQUIETING VIOLIN MUSIC)

(DISQUIETING VIOLIN MUSIC)

With the end of the retreat fast approaching,

while everyone else is packing up ready to head back to Sydney...

We absolutely scored with the room, didn't we?

..Jayden is still feeling worried about Eden.

Alright. Here we go.

(GENTLE MUSIC)

Eden's anxiety has never, ever been a problem

this whole experiment until, obviously, we came to the retreat.

It's all new to me and I'm really trying my best

just to get to the bottom of what's actually happening.

You know, this kind of thing, I have never seen before,

I've never dealt with before,

so I'm struggling to learn how to help you out with it.

I'm doing my best. Yeah.

You know?

But I do sometimes get uncomfortable or anxious in a big social setting,

and that's evident being here.

Like, has anything else happened? Just, like...

I, like...

If you keep it to yourself,

it's just adding...like, it just makes, you know, your anxiety and...

Yeah.

..it just makes it so much worse.

(TENSE MUSIC)

At the end of the day, it's not fair for me

because I've received this information that I didn't want,

and now I'm stuck with either losing all the friendships I have in here

and sharing the information

or I keep it to myself and pretend it never happened,

and then I probably lose my relationship with Jayden

because the more and more I'm gonna push him away.

So, I feel like he needs to know what's going on.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

I feel like, by sharing it, it is doing the wrong thing.

Yeah.

But, just before retreat,

someone in the experiment sent me a message asking me for clothes.

She's like, "I want to wear a cool top to dinner tonight."

And I was like, "Sweet."

And I had written to her, "Where are you going for dinner?"

And, when I opened it, she said, um,

"I'm seeing my ex-boyfriend."

(SINISTER MUSIC)

(BLEEP). Who is it?

It's Sara.

That's (BLEEP).

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

It's so crazy how quickly things can change in here.

I know, yeah.

(DARK MUSIC)

I feel like last night really...

I don't know, it just, like, it was like a shift for us, you know?

Yeah.

You know, it felt like it was sort of make or break

and you needed to see me have your back, and I wanted to do that.

And, like, I just feel like,

if we continue like this, like, it'll just be really good.

So...

I don't know if anything happened with the ex-boyfriend.

Even if nothing happened,

even if they didn't sleep together, they didn't...

Even if nothing happened, we know that they were obviously talking

in some way of communication and we know that they met up.

Talking, whether it's calls or messaging,

that's a form of cheating,

and meeting up with your ex-partner behind your husband's back

is also a form of cheating.

(UNEASY MUSIC)

No matter what way you look at it, it's wrong,

and I think you and I both know that.

Yeah. You know?

And it makes it even worse that I am close with him.

Mm. That just adds salt to the wound.

Yeah, it's hit a little bit of a soft spot for me

because I know what it would be like to be in Tim's situation right now.

Anyone who knows me after my past relationships being cheated on,

I am very passionately against cheating,

and it's even worse the fact that Tim's my friend.

I feel like he deserves to know.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Back to...back to Skye, back to Sydney.

I'm sad we're leaving Byron

but, like, I'm excited for the next, like, few weeks.

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

I don't think Tim deserves that. No.

And I think, if he knew, he wouldn't be here.

In my opinion, it definitely needs to come out.

Yeah, agree.

If I was Tim, I would want to know.

(FRAUGHT ORCHESTRAL MUSIC)

I feel like we get stronger and stronger.

VOICEOVER: There's never..

Tim and I have been the biggest comeback.

..been a secret. This.. (LAUGH)

Watching Tim and Sara.. ..tantalising.

It is eating me alive.

Thread by thread. I'm not protecting you any more.

A web of lies will be untangled.

Tell Tim what you did last weekend. Otherwise we will do it.

You ok Tim? Nah.

Not ok.

VOICEOVER CONTINUES: It's the dinner party..

Oh my god. (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

..of the year.

She has not apologised, she has not acknowledged.

I want to have a front row seat to the apology tour.

I want a gold class ticket, maybe some popcorn.

VOICEOVER: Nothing.. It's a betrayal.

..will stop... (INDISTINCT) No way.

..the truth.
