All language subtitles for Married At First Sight S06E08

NARRATOR: Last night, three couples
headed off on honeymoon.

A little bit of me froze,
watching her walking to the pool.

In South Australia's wine country...

In South Australia's wine country...

Oh!

..champagne wasn't all
that Lauren popped...

Last night I lost my virginity.

I can't remember the last time
I was this happy.

..while Ines and Bronson
headed off course.

..while Ines and Bronson
headed off course.

..while Ines and Bronson
headed off course.

When I say don't speak, shut up!

Sam bailed
on his honeymoon altogether...

This is not what I expected
to be waking up to.

..leaving a confused Elizabeth
to wonder what went wrong.

..leaving a confused Elizabeth
to wonder what went wrong.

..leaving a confused Elizabeth
to wonder what went wrong.

I don't know what's going on.

Tonight...

Hello!
Hello!

..it's the first dinner party.

Where's her husband?

How was your honeymoon?

How was your honeymoon?

No honeymoon.

He's a dick already.
I don't like him.

Ladies and gentlemen,
dinner is served.

And there's romance, raunch...

There's gonna be
a lot of wife-swapping.

You're a little minx, aren't you?

You're a little minx, aren't you?

..and plenty of drama
on the menu...

Here we go. Buckle up.

That's so fake.

That's so fake.

Oh, my God. You are ridiculous.

You sit there and you say,
'I don't know what to say.'

You sit there and you say,
'I don't know what to say.'

Because guess who's
coming to dinner...

This is going to rev the group up.

Honey, I'm home.

(CHURCH BELLS)

(TENSE MUSIC)

On a chilly morning
in Sydney,

Elizabeth is waking up alone
yet again.

No, I haven't heard from Sam.

It's like day four
and I don't know what's going on.

It's odd not to hear from him.

It's odd not to hear from him.

He's meant to be
fully committed to this

but he's attending
an ex's mother's funeral.

I want to believe him,

I want to believe him,

but I called yesterday

and left a voicemail
and, like, nothing.

I really just don't know
what's going on at the moment.

The fact that he's overseas
with his ex-girlfriend

The fact that he's overseas
with his ex-girlfriend

is just like the cherry on top,
I feel like -

is just like the cherry on top,
I feel like -

it's like, how can someone's mind
not go into overdrive?

Like, it's just normal. It's natural.

So right now, it feels like
I'm in solitary confinement.

It's not pleasant at all.

While Elizabeth
paces her apartment...

While Elizabeth
paces her apartment...

Inhale, lift the chest,
roll the shoulders back.

..the rest of the newlyweds

make the most of their precious
last hours on honeymoon.

Oh, oh!
(SQUEALS)

Oh, oh!
(SQUEALS)

Oh, oh!
(SQUEALS)

Overall, the honeymoon
has been amazing.

I mean, Mick has been amazing,

getting to know one another
has been amazing.

(GIGGLES)
Honey, what's that?

(LAUGHS) I (BLEEP) Hate you!

(LAUGHS) I (BLEEP) Hate you!

It's Vitamin D.
Vitamin E is Sorbolene cream.

Mmm.

MATT: Really, it's been perfect.

I know. Hopefully we can create
some more memories

back in Sydney.

back in Sydney.

Back in the real world.

Bye, honeymoon.

Good to go.

We are leaving.

# Don't wanna be

# All by myself

# Anymore. #

# Anymore. #

(SIGHS) Thank you.

(SAD MUSIC)

(WEAK CHUCKLE)

(US ACCENT) Are you there, Sam?
Are you in here, Sam?

(US ACCENT) Are you there, Sam?
Are you in here, Sam?

You hidin'?

Sam?

Sam?

Where art thou, Sam?

Yeah, I'm getting, like,
the horror four walls.

Literally, it's me, myself and I.

# I'm all alone. #

(SIGHS)

I was meant to be in Phuket.

I was meant to be
somewhere beautiful and tropical.

No, I've got a fur on.

This is not what was meant to happen.

This is meant to be marriage,

where he's here for me
and I'm here for him.

where he's here for me
and I'm here for him.

I need to get out here.
Dude, I need to get out of here.

Sam has 100% ruined my first week
and my experience in this experiment.

He's 100% ruined it.

He's 100% ruined it.

(EPIC ROMANTIC MUSIC)

With the honeymoons over,

the remaining newlyweds
have returned to Sydney...

Oh, you're a good husband.

Oh, you're a good husband.

You're like Cinderella?
Yep,

pretty much.

..and they are now preparing
for the next big challenge

of the experiment -
the first dinner party.

of the experiment -
the first dinner party.

Tonight's dinner party
is a crucial step in our experiment.

Our newlyweds will have to
present as a couple to the group

in a large social setting.

Look how smooth they are
on your legs.

Look how smooth they are
on your legs.

I know, they're pretty tight.

I know, they're pretty tight.

They don't leave much
to the imagination.

Oh, well, lucky me.
Ha!

Just holding the mirror up,

so I can get
all the angles of lighting

while I do my make-up.
This is married life.

while I do my make-up.
This is married life.

Connections were formed
at the bucks and hens night,

but tonight is the first time
the couples will meet as a group.

The girls, they are wild
and they are full-on.

The girls, they are wild
and they are full-on.

The guys aren't full-on at all.
They're, you know...

Really? Oh, these women
are gonna eat them up.

Really? Oh, these women
are gonna eat them up.

Oh, you just wait.

I'm nervous.
What are you nervous for?

I'm nervous.
What are you nervous for?

I don't know. You know, everyone's
just gonna be judging each other

and it's gonna be...

So what? Let them judge each other.

Judge us. Don't worry about them.

Yeah, well, we're killing it.

I think we're doing well, so...

I think we're doing well, so...

Don't worry, I've got your back.
I've got yours.

JOHN: For some,
it may trigger anxiety...

There's nervous butterflies going...
(MAKES FUNNY NOISE)

..as there'll be no hiding from those
hard-hitting questions tonight.

..as there'll be no hiding from those
hard-hitting questions tonight.

LOZ: Do you think the guys will ask,

LOZ: Do you think the guys will ask,

'Did you sleep together
on the honeymoon?'

I feel like that's going to be
one of the first things

out of their mouths.
Really?

out of their mouths.
Really?

Like, after they
introduce themselves,

you know, they've done
all the polite business,

that's probably
one of the first things

they're gonna want to know.

The fact that
I was a 29-year-old virgin

is a bit of an anomaly
and some of them at the bucks night

is a bit of an anomaly
and some of them at the bucks night

found it quite interesting
and strange.

So I feel like
this is going to be nine couples

all wanting to ask me and Loz
the one question.

How do you feel about
that kind of situation?

How do you feel about
that kind of situation?

(SIGHS) Um...

In a word, anxious.

Right now, my nerves
are sort of ramping up a bit.

Right now, my nerves
are sort of ramping up a bit.

I'm feeling
a little hot under the collar

and anxiety's sort of
getting the best of me.

Let's go.

Let's do it.
Yeah.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

JULES: Put your clothes on,
hurry up.

That's the first time
you've said that,

in a hurry.
(LAUGHS)

Mark, you need to put
the toilet seat down.

Mark, you need to put
the toilet seat down.

Mark, you need to put
the toilet seat down.

You look really nice tonight.
Aw! Thank you.

These clean? Yep.

With the relationship
with Jess and I,

there's just some
bloody ups and downs.

there's just some
bloody ups and downs.

You look good!

Yeah, you can polish a turd

occasionally.
Doesn't want me to touch his hair!

I don't know where I stand with her
most of the time, so...

You've got your work boots on, babe!

You've got your work boots on, babe!

They're me nicest shoes.

You look like a 10.

It'll be good to catch up
with a couple of the boys

and just get their advice
and see what they have to say.

and just get their advice
and see what they have to say.

and just get their advice
and see what they have to say.

Absolutely.

Nailed it.
Let's go.

Bingo. Let's go.

Ooh, how exciting!

JOHN: The dinner party will either
strengthen our couple's relationships

or it could dial up the problems.

or it could dial up the problems.

If there was trouble
on the honeymoon,

those tensions will likely
bubble back up tonight.

(TENSE MUSIC)

You look really good.

You look really good.

So what are the girls like?

They're all quite different
to each other,

They're all quite different
to each other,

like a mixed bag of lollies,

but there's definitely
some lollies in there I'd put back

but there's definitely
some lollies in there I'd put back

if I took them out.

You'll have to point them out to me
when we get there.

Oh, you'll be able
to spot them, 100%.

(CHUCKLES)

I have not come to terms

I have not come to terms

with the fact
that Bronson is a stripper.

A gentleman is not a stripper.

(SIGHS)
It should be a good night.

I'm looking forward to it.

It'll be good to catch up
with the boys again.

It'll be good to catch up
with the boys again.

There are definitely feelings there
but it's...

There are definitely feelings there
but it's...

Uh, up and down.

One minute, you're happy.
The next minute, you're angry.

The next, you're happy.
The next, you're angry.

The next, you're happy.
The next, you're angry.

Yeah.
I find it

really hard to take.
It's like dating The Hulk.

(BOTH LAUGH)

I'm stressed! Shut the (BLEEP) up!

I can see why you're single, eh?
Really can.

I can see why you're single, eh?
Really can.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Since the honeymoon, it's difficult.

Do I push through? Pull back?

Do I get on the next plane?
Do I just disappear?

Do I get on the next plane?
Do I just disappear?

Do I get on the next plane?
Do I just disappear?

You look good, you look really good.
Are you ready to go?

Yeah.
Let's do it.

When she's good, she's great.

When she's bad, she's atrocious.

But, you know,
I'm in it for the long haul.

Beautiful. After you, mate.

Beautiful. After you, mate.

Thank you.
No worries.

Bronson and I
have been giving each other

a lot of space.

It's working wonders

for the relationship.
After you.

for the relationship.
After you.

Bronson has been doing nothing
that makes me think I'm his wife.

He just needs to put in
a lot more work,

just to, like, please me, really.

just to, like, please me, really.

just to, like, please me, really.

(TENSE MUSIC)

So where am I at
with my relationship with Sam?

So where am I at
with my relationship with Sam?

What relationship?
There is no relationship! My God!

I have not heard from him still.

I think this is like day 5000.

I think this is like day 5000.

Walking into
the dinner party tonight,

walking in by myself,

I'm actually feeling angry.

I'm actually feeling angry.

All these people have partners

and I'm walking in by myself

and I'm walking in by myself

with no one
and having no idea where Sam is.

What grown man

puts someone else out like this
with no communication?

puts someone else out like this
with no communication?

With no explanation whatsoever?

Who does that?

There's two people in this.

It's not just Sam.

I have no idea
if Sam's coming to the dinner party.

I have no idea
if Sam's coming to the dinner party.

Absolutely no idea.

If he's not here tonight,

I will see him again,

regardless of if it's in, like,
a year or whatever.

regardless of if it's in, like,
a year or whatever.

I will find Sam and hunt him down.

I never forget.

I forgive but I never forget.

Going to our first dinner party.

Mmm.

True. You'll be able to see

True. You'll be able to see

if there's tension.
Yeah.

if there's tension.
Yeah.

JOHN: At the dinner party,
it's essential that couples put on

a united front.

If they let the cracks
in their relationship show,

If they let the cracks
in their relationship show,

one of them will end up feeling
vulnerable and exposed.

Uh, no, it would never come to that.

Uh, no, it would never come to that.

Gotta be some drama. (LAUGHS)

There's gotta be
a bit of drama in there.

Oh, this is gonna be wild.
Yeah!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

TRISHA: Tonight,
it will be very obvious

TRISHA: Tonight,
it will be very obvious

if there's chemistry
between the couples.

JESS: I'm actually
really excited to meet the guys.

Are you?
Yeah. Can you not tell?

I'm, like, overly excited.
First time ever.

TRISHA: It's very hard
to hide your true feelings

in a social setting like this.

If I catch you checking out
another female tonight,

you know World War III? (LAUGHS)

you know World War III? (LAUGHS)

As we've seen

the group dynamic

around meeting other couples,

Yeah, unknown.
Yeah, the fear of the unknown.

Yeah, unknown.

It's putting me

where we're going to walk in,
all these eyes are going to be on us

and the first question

'Did you guys do it?
Are you still a virgin?'

Are you ready for this?
Let's do it.

of the hard stuff.

As we know,
Matthew is highly anxious.

I mean, this is a big deal
for Matthew,

because for a guy
that's never been with a woman,

now he's in a setting
with a lot of strangers

and some of them may ask him

whether he's had sex.

Have you let it out or what?

Well, the boys are grilling him.

Perfect. Good start.

That's where it starts.

That's great, man.

I think I've sorted of deflected

the whole, you know,
'Did you guys do it?

the whole, you know,
'Did you guys do it?

Are you still a virgin?' question.

I was able to just sort of
smile and nod my way out of it.

I was able to just sort of
smile and nod my way out of it.

I feel like the night's still young

and it might still come up later on,
but we'll see what happens, I guess.

Mmm.

Come here.

See that?

I've gotten you drinks...
I just realised we suck at marriage.

(LAUGHS)
What was that? What was that?

Anyway...

Anyway...

(TENSE MUSIC)

(TENSE MUSIC)

So are you going to
talk to people about,

like, your ex-stripping and stuff?

like, your ex-stripping and stuff?

Oh, all the boys know.

Oh, so that means
everyone's gonna know.

I really wanna know
if everyone got a hot husband,

because then I'd feel like
I got fully ripped off.

because then I'd feel like
I got fully ripped off.

Yeah, I wonder if people
will do outrageous things.

Dunno. I guess a few beers

and a few wines,
anything could happen.

Yeah...

I'm so bored.

Yeah, like,
I'm not having a good time.

Like, it sucks.

If I had a husband that I liked,

If I had a husband that I liked,

I would be hooking up with him
all the time.

Dinner parties are pretty dramatic.

Everyone just wants to know,
like, everyone's business.

Everyone just wants to know,

This is going to be interesting.

Ah.

Now, I'm really interested

What's their connection like?

Yes.

Ines is very demanding,

Ines is very demanding,

has high expectations
and has the big list, doesn't she?

Mm-hmm.

I wonder how he's measuring up
so far.

Congratulations, Ines.
Mwah, nice to meet you, darling.

Congratulations, Ines.

JOHN: So, Bronson and Ines -

thoughts?
No, I'm not getting a vibe.

thoughts?
No, I'm not getting a vibe.

I'm not getting much here at all.
No.

When they came in,
it was very separate,

When they came in,
it was very separate,

wasn't it?
Very separate.

There's almost
a stand-off-ish-ness about them.

How's your babe?
Yeah, he's gorgeous.

Is he?

How's it going? How are you?
Bronson,

like he never makes any effort
to make me feel like I am a wife.

like he never makes any effort
to make me feel like I am a wife.

You guys are like
a beautiful couple.

Thank you.
Absolutely gorgeous.

He's like scared of me or something.

Like, in my eyes,
I still feel single.

Like, in my eyes,
I still feel single.

You can sort of tell my husband
looks like a full porn star right?

You can sort of tell my husband
looks like a full porn star right?

Don't you reckon
he looks like a porn star?

He used to - like, four years ago,

He used to - like, four years ago,

he was a stripper.
Do you like that?

I feel like you could get into that.

You could totally play

that porn star girlfriend type.
Do you reckon?

Yeah, just like...

I think everyone
looks so good together.

I think everyone
looks so good together.

And then there I am,
looking over at my husband

and I'm just like,
what happened here?

(LAUGHS)
How's your night?

Everyone's fully
hooking up with each other.

Everyone's fully
hooking up with each other.

So funny, isn't it?

I feel a bit jealous.

I feel a bit jealous.

If anyone is willing
to donate me their husband,

I would definitely, you know,

I would definitely, you know,

like to have a discussion
with them about it.

Yeah, it sounds like
a really good plan.

Yeah, I'm into it.

Lizzie, my friend, is not here yet.

Lizzie, my friend, is not here yet.

Oh, yeah. She'd be with Sam.

(GASPS) Which one's Sam?

Um, big, tall, handsome kid.

Oh, OK, great. OK.
Why are we waiting?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

I'm over it. I don't have a husband.

I don't know where he is.

It's just getting
beyond the point of ridiculousness.

When I'm walking in,

alone, by myself,
and the other couples are there,

I feel like the questions
will be like, 'What do you mean

you don't know where he is?'
I'll be like,

'There's been no phone call,
there's been no text,

there's been zilch.'

there's been zilch.'

(CHUCKLES)

Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

Hi!
(GROUP GREETINGS)

Hello! Wait, she's by herself.

Hello! Wait, she's by herself.

What the hell?

What the hell?

Where's her husband?

No Sam.
Has she come in on her own?

Oh, my God, she's by herself.

Where's Sam?

Oh, no!
Oh.

Oh, what is going on?

Oh, what is going on?

Is Sam the runaway bride?
Yeah, what's the go?

He's a runaway.

No.

Oh, no, this is not good at all.

Oh, no, this is not good at all.

What a terrible thing to have to do,

to go into a dinner party
on your own,

front up, answer the questions.
Yeah, what's happened?

front up, answer the questions.
Yeah, what's happened?

How are you?
Are you good?

Yep.

Entering the dinner party alone,

Entering the dinner party alone,

not ideal.

Eh, you do what you gotta do.

Hey.
Hi!

What happened?

I'm actually just really happy.

Seeing the girls after spending
all that time by myself.

Seeing the girls after spending
all that time by myself.

Did you have a wedding?
I had a wedding.

What happened?
He's gone.

Oh, my God.

Are you OK?

I'm OK, I'm OK.
It's not what I expected.

I'm OK, I'm OK.
It's not what I expected.

No, of course not.
You know, we're all here

to support you.

Well, the sisterhood
is rallying around her...

Yes.

..and giving her the support
and she needs that,

because that's
such a daunting situation

because that's
such a daunting situation

to come into like this.

(LAUGHS)
Why are you laughing?

Don't make me laugh, you evil bitch!
Why are you laughing?

Because it's so soon!

How was it that bad?

How was it that bad?

I was thinking
I had a few issues, but (BLEEP).

What happened to Elizabeth?

Is she divorced?
Is she single? Is she married?

Like, where's her husband?

Like, where's her husband?

Yeah, Elizabeth
should have stayed at home.

Yeah, Elizabeth
should have stayed at home.

Why is she here?

Big Sam.

That's full-on. What's happened?
Why? She looks like his type.

Guess we'll have to ask her.

Guess we'll have to ask her.

Ah...

Sam was one of the boys.

JULES: Guys, guys, everyone...

Speech!
Excuse me,

Lizzie just wants to have
a big, open conversation.

Lizzie just wants to have
a big, open conversation.

Yeah.
JOHN: Not a bad way to do it, is it?

Tell them all at once.
I mean, there's nowhere to hide.

She's going to have to
answer these questions

for the rest of the night.

And she's going to answer them

And she's going to answer them

And she's going to answer them

in her way from her perspective.
Mm-hmm.

He's not here to defend himself,

so it'll be interesting
to see how she tells the story.

First of all,

has everyone had a nice honeymoon?
(CHEERY RESPONSE)

has everyone had a nice honeymoon?
(CHEERY RESPONSE)

Everyone have a good honeymoon?
How was your honeymoon?

No honeymoon.
Ooh.

What happened?
I think the wedding at first

was just a bit of a shock,
do you know what I mean?

was just a bit of a shock,
do you know what I mean?

Did you feel that?
You were just kind of like,

processing everything,
taking it all in.

Then we went back to the hotel

and then next thing in the morning,
he's just like, he's gotta go...

and then next thing in the morning,
he's just like, he's gotta go...

Because he had to go to a funeral.

When you first hear that,
you're just like,

yeah, I'm like, 'Go to your funeral,'
and then he's like, 'Cool,'

and he goes,

and he goes,

'It's overseas.'
I'm like, 'OK.'

And then it was like,
it's to do with his ex-girlfriend.

So it's his ex-girlfriend's mother
who had passed away.

So it's his ex-girlfriend's mother
who had passed away.

Yeah, then he just went.

And never came back?
Never came back.

And never came back?
Never came back.

(QUITE GROAN)

Are youse together, or...

Are youse together, or...

I don't understand.
Have you spoken to him?

No contact,

no contact.

MEL: And that's the point here,

that he's fractured the relationship
because he's just

that he's fractured the relationship
because he's just

stopped communicating.
There's no contact at all, yeah.

So I reluctantly made a phone call.

I was like, 'I just hope you're OK,'
and that was like...

I was like, 'I just hope you're OK,'
and that was like...

Two days after.
You shouldn't even have done that.

Babe, I didn't wanna do that.
Do you know what, though?

Babe, I didn't wanna do that.
Do you know what, though?

The thing is...
But you get what I mean - like,

I say you shouldn't have
even have done that.

No, no, the thing is,

it's to do with the funeral,
you've got to remember -

it's to do with the funeral,
you've got to remember -

the bigger picture -
it's to do with the funeral,

so regardless if he's going to
end up being a piece of shit...

He is a piece of shit!
But babe,

it's got do with the funeral.
Maybe he's really at the funeral.

it's got do with the funeral.
Maybe he's really at the funeral.

CYRELL: But was it really a funeral?

That's why I laugh.
Was it really a funeral?

JOHN: Cyrell,
not that good in going forward...

No.
And at this point,

when you've just
made this announcement,

when you've just
made this announcement,

when you've just
made this announcement,

you don't want advice.

No.
You just want people in the group

to listen.

He's a dick already,
I don't like him.

From when we met with Sam,
he was pretty open.

He was definitely ready for love.
He's ready to commit.

He was definitely ready for love.
He's ready to commit.

Babe, I'm gonna disagree with you.

He's 26 years old.

What makes him think he knows
what he wants in his life?

You know what, honey,
I think you can do better.

You know what, honey,
I think you can do better.

Look, you're gonna break up
another relationship here, Liz.

NIC: Cyrell, you're assuming
that it's not legit.

NIC: Cyrell, you're assuming
that it's not legit.

No.
No? What,

No.
No? What,

you're not gonna talk to me?
Why are you making this about us?

I'm saying if it's legit,
then it's legit -

what are you gonna do?
It isn't legit, babe!

How do you know?
Alright, so a person -

I'm sorry, I'm sorry -
a person magically passes away

I'm sorry, I'm sorry -
a person magically passes away

that happens to be his ex-girlfriend

and he needs
to fly across the country

just after they got married?
I know.

Oh, my God.
You can't - don't get angry at me.

Oh, my God.
You can't - don't get angry at me.

What if he's telling the truth?
I'm on your side, but I'm saying,

I'm not gonna blow up.
Whatever, babe. Seriously, whatever.

I'm not gonna...

I'm not gonna...

I'm just saying,
I'm not gonna blow up...

Hey sweetheart,
do you think he's coming back?

Sweetheart? Um...

Sorry.
Do you think he's coming back?

I have no idea.
I haven't heard from him.

I have no idea.
I haven't heard from him.

I'd be pissed off.

100%.

(BELL RINGS)

Ladies and gentlemen,
dinner is served.

Coming up, dinner serves up
yet more controversy...

Coming up, dinner serves up
yet more controversy...

I wouldn't be surprised if this
turned into a massive sex party.

the well-being of the group.
Yeah.

but other people we've seen tonight.

It's really nice.

It's really nice to watch.

It makes me excited about,

Woo!

NIC: What did youse do?
Anything exciting?

I got to massage this sexy body!

What about you?
Did you give her a massage back?

Sure did.

Anything happen?

Anything happen?

Oh, look, I had to tell him
about five times,

firmer, Matt, firmer!
Too gentle.

I like it rough, you know!

(LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

Take notes, Matt, yeah.

Take notes, Matt, yeah.

MEL: Isn't it lovely
to see what's happening here

with Matthew and Lauren.

TRISHA: What a story of courage!

I mean, Matthew came in

really vulnerable
to this experiment.

really vulnerable
to this experiment.

JOHN: Absolutely.

And it's working for him.
Yep.

HEIDI: So tell me
about your wedding,

when you first laid eyes on her,

your honeymoon, everything.

OK.
I know, sorry,

OK.
I know, sorry,

but I'm straight to the point.

Did you straight away like her?
Like, did you feel the connection

Did you straight away like her?
Like, did you feel the connection

with her straight away?
Yeah, straight away.

And you get along
really well together?

Yeah, really well.

Yeah, really well.

I feel like, you know,

the way things have gone tonight,
I feel like feelings

are definitely growing.

Yeah, yeah,

I'm pretty smitten with Matt.
(CHUCKLES)

I'm pretty smitten with Matt.
(CHUCKLES)

We sort of balance each other out,
which is kind of cool.

So nice. In what way?

She's a bit more bubbly
and an extrovert

and I'm a bit more reserved
and kind of like, you know,

I sort of cool her down
and she fires me up sort of thing.

That's cool.
Yeah.

That's cool.
Yeah.

It's just like tick, tick, tick.

That's awesome.

MELISSA: Hey, so babe, have you
not heard from him at all?

MELISSA: Hey, so babe, have you
not heard from him at all?

Nothing, babe, nothing.

Wow.

I'm riding solo.

So when you tried calling him,

he didn't answer?
Straight to voicemail.

I think you're gonna get
a new husband, Liz,

don't worry about it.

I feel like this season's
gonna be different,

I feel like this season's
gonna be different,

like everyone's gonna be
getting a new husband.

What?

(COUGHS)

Don't you reckon?

No, no.

I can feel it in the air, like...
What?

I can feel it in the air, like...
What?

I can feel it in the air, like...
What?

I wouldn't be surprised

if this turned into
a massive sex party.

No, you can't...

No, you can't...

I'm not saying
this is what we're doing,

like...

MIKE: Well, who's gonna do it then?

INES: I'm just saying,
I get premonitions.

I can feel
that this is gonna happen.

I can feel
that this is gonna happen.

(GIGGLES)
MIKE: Really? OK.

From what I can gather,
it's as though you think

that there's gonna be wife swapping
and husband swapping.

I'm already telling you,

I'm already telling you,

there's gonna be a lot
of wife swapping.

there's gonna be a lot
of wife swapping.

JOHN: That's pretty provocative.

TRISHA: So there's something
going on for Ines.

She's projecting that

onto the group.
BOTH: Mmm.

Maybe she wants it to happen.
Mmm.

And her husband has no response.
No.

And her husband has no response.
No.

Just completely ignored it.

If it happened, like
if everyone was like,

let's have a mad orgy,

like, I wouldn't be surprised.

That's all I'm saying.

You're a little minx, aren't you?

You're a little minx, aren't you?

You know? Anyways... (CLEARS THROAT)

But everyone's really
quite dismissed it.

Maybe she did it
to try and get some attention.

Maybe she did it
to try and get some attention.

(INHALES) Anyways... (LAUGHS)

(INHALES) Anyways... (LAUGHS)

So what would you do
if he showed up tonight?

Would you try to
make the relationship work

or would you...

That's a really tough question,
to be honest,

That's a really tough question,
to be honest,

because remember, I've spent
less than 24 hours with the kid.

Do you know what I mean?
And you're already calling him kid,

so yeah, you've already...
I've made up my mind.

MEL: He's completely ghosted her

MEL: He's completely ghosted her

after their wedding.
Shut down the contact.

Absolutely. She's left
with all of these questions,

Absolutely. She's left
with all of these questions,

doubting herself, understandably.

What if he came in here
with his heart on his sleeve

What if he came in here
with his heart on his sleeve

and said, 'Look, I've screwed up
and I'm really wanting

to make it work with you,

please give me another chance.'
What would you do?

I'd be like, that's great, babe,

but this is what
you've made me go through.

but this is what
you've made me go through.

Look, this wedding band
means I'm still committed to this

and I want to find out
an explanation from him.

It's just hard
when I don't know where he is

It's just hard
when I don't know where he is

or what's happening with him.

or what's happening with him.

And so you wouldn't?
You wouldn't make it work?

It's hard.

JOHN: Well, I think
what's happened

is that it's a huge injury
to the relationship

and their attachment together.

and their attachment together.

For them to turn it around,

there'd have to be
a huge amount of talking

and particularly from Sam
and an understanding

of how he's hurt her.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC BUILDS)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC BUILDS)

Oh, hang on...
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oh!

Oh, my God, babe.

Whoa!

Hello, ladies. I'll say hello
to everyone. How are you?

Hello, ladies. I'll say hello
to everyone. How are you?

MEL: What's she going to do?

Buckle up.
(CHUCKLES)

Buckle up.
(CHUCKLES)

(CLEARS THROAT) How are you?

(TENSE MUSIC)

Surprise.

Surprise.

I'm seeing daggers.

It's coming, her smile's coming.
It's coming.

How are you, you alright?

I wanna hear your story first.
My story? Oh.

I wanna hear your story first.
My story? Oh.

OK, start from the very beginning.
Where have you been?

Tell us everything.
So, um,

basically after the wedding,
I looked through the phone

and had a few messages
and my ex had contacted me

and had a few messages
and my ex had contacted me

and her mother had passed away

and her mother had passed away

and I was very close with my ex

and her family
and everything like that.

I thought, right - I had to do it
and yeah, told Elizabeth.

I thought, right - I had to do it
and yeah, told Elizabeth.

Have you contacted Liz since...
Good question. Was there any contact?

Was there anything,
any contact towards...

I left a voicemail.
On what?

Your mobile?

I don't have a voicemail.

I don't have a voicemail.

There's no voicemail.
I'll show you my phone.

I'll prove it.
There was a voicemail.

I'll get my phone out
and show you.

(RECORDING) Hello, you've reached
the phone number of Samuel Ball.

Just leave your name and number
and I'll get back to you

Just leave your name and number
and I'll get back to you

as soon as possible.

as soon as possible.

(BEEP)

The kid said
he doesn't have a voicemail.

NIC: Had your back, Sam.
Yeah? What was said?

They didn't believe your story.

CYRELL: Sorry, babe,
I'm gonna say that I didn't.

CYRELL: Sorry, babe,
I'm gonna say that I didn't.

I was like the devil in there.
I was like, legit,

he dogged her.
What was said?

Was I not coming back?

Yeah, but there's been no contact.
There was nothing.

Because I was at a funeral.
But it was more than just one day.

That's right, it's not one day.

A funeral's one day.

Yeah, but...

There was like no contact.
There was nothing.

Yeah, well, I couldn't,

Yeah, well, I couldn't,

I didn't have your number

and I need it to contact you.
Yeah, yeah, cool.

and I need it to contact you.
Yeah, yeah, cool.

Geez, you're so mad.

What are you so angry for?

MEL: Is he really not aware...

MEL: Is he really not aware...

(LAUGHS)

I'm just absolutely dumbfounded
that he can be sitting there

eating his meal,
completely unaware of the impact.

I'm very frustrated at the situation
and you need to hear me out.

You need understand...
Well, I'm not talking, so yeah.

You need understand...
Well, I'm not talking, so yeah.

Keep going, I'm listening.

What do you mean?
I just feel like

it wasn't handled
in the right way.

I feel like there should have been

some more communication.
What, you feel like -

with the situation? Yeah.

TRISHA: He's not letting her speak.

TRISHA: He's not letting her speak.

He's just closing her down.

So what else were you thinking?

It's not something
you can just say...

No, there's nothing
I can just say at this point...

So angry.

So angry.

You should relax, just breathe.

Really?

Really?

Yeah, definitely.

(MUTTERS UNDER BREATH)
No need to be angry.

He looks pretty relaxed and happy.

He looks pretty relaxed and happy.

Oh, totally. He's brushed it -
there's no issue for him.

She's gotta calm down.

(CHATTER)

I reckon he's got
a couple of kangaroos

I reckon he's got
a couple of kangaroos

loose in the top paddock.
(LAUGHS)

Stop using all my sayings!
Bazinga!

That is it, I'm outta here.

(GIGGLES)

So on a lighter note -

this is really cute.
We've got some sign language

this is really cute.
We've got some sign language

this is really cute.
We've got some sign language

going on between Jess and Mick.

Yeah!
I'm loving those two right now.

They're really
bouncing off each other.

So if you take a quick look
around the room,

So if you take a quick look
around the room,

we've got
some good love stories happening.

Some good signs.
Yeah.

So Heidi and Mike,
they look comfortable

with each other, don't they?
They look really at ease, these two.

Yeah.

Cameron and Jules.

Cameron and Jules.

We've got Martha and Michael.

Did you notice
Ning's leaning into Mark?

That's a real
level of comfort, there, isn't it?

That's a real
level of comfort, there, isn't it?

Here, we've got Dino and Melissa.

Oh, they're a quirky couple!

Oh, they are.

Matthew and Lauren.

Lovely.

A growing love story there.

Yeah.
Really lovely.

Yeah.
Really lovely.

They're like this
little beacon of positivity

in amongst the drama and the venom

that's being spat across the table.

I'm jealous of youse two.

You look so in love.

Matt's a beautiful guy.

Matt's a beautiful guy.

He is like an angel

and I'm the devil
in this relationship.

I can see that!

You are so the devil
in this relationship.

I am taking control
of this relationship.

I am taking control
of this relationship.

And how do you feel about that?
I love it.

(LAUGHS)

It's funny because a lot of people
are comparing their relationships

to Matt and I.

I already knew that we had
something special,

I already knew that we had
something special,

but to hear other people say it,

like it really puts things
into perspective.

I think Matt and I
have each other's backs

more than anyone else
in this experiment.

more than anyone else
in this experiment.

Do you need some more water?
I didn't want to, like,

Do you need some more water?
I didn't want to, like,

just let all my frustration
just come out and just have a go

in front of everyone.
I don't really know you at all.

in front of everyone.
I don't really know you at all.

It's literally been, what,
even less than 24 hours.

Do you know what I mean?
So I'm trying to be respectful

of that situation.
Yeah, definitely.

Because it was
a pretty serious situation

that I went through, too.
It was pretty emotional.

that I went through, too.
It was pretty emotional.

You gotta be...
You know what?

The first thing I said to everyone
when I came in here,

when everyone said,
'Why are you by yourself?'

Other people tried to tell me
that you were bullshitting.

I said, 'There's no way he would be.'
Bullshitting? Yeah, that's right.

I said, 'There's no way he would be.'
Bullshitting? Yeah, that's right.

I'm not attacking you. That's what
I was trying to say before.

I'm not attacking you. That's what
I was trying to say before.

I'm going through my own issues
and what I've actually dealt with.

I'm feeling really hurt

and I'm feeling really confused
about the situation and honestly,

and I'm feeling really confused
about the situation and honestly,

I feel like
there's no respect towards me.

He doesn't even care.
He doesn't even care,

and I feel like he's just defensive.

So are you willing to understand

where I'm coming from?
I am,

that's why I'm listening.
I'm a very give and take guy.

that's why I'm listening.
I'm a very give and take guy.

The thing is, as I said...

You don't need to
keep talking over me.

You've gotta talk...

when you communicate,
you don't talk over each other.

You've gotta just
give each other time to talk.

That's what marriage
is all about, so...

Which is what I'm saying!

You're not listening
to what I'm saying!

If you're gonna talk like that...
It doesn't seem like

you can follow the situation.

Oh, definitely,
but you don't need to carry on.

You can just talk to me
like a human being.

You can just talk to me
like a human being.

Do you know why
I'm getting frustrated?

How old are you? We're adults.

Oh, that's a good one

to throw around.
We are, we're adults. Let's talk.

I'm sorry, this isn't...

(CHUCKLES)

OK, are you just gonna laugh?

OK, are you just gonna laugh?

Well, you're carrying on a bit.

JOHN: The problem
with these situations

is neither one is hearing each other.
They're point-scoring.

It escalates.

Eventually, one of them
is going to walk away.

Eventually, one of them
is going to walk away.

I didn't want to have a go at you
in front of everyone,

I didn't want to have a go at you
in front of everyone,

because I respected the situation

with what you had to deal with.
You're doing

what you didn't want to do.

How?

You said you didn't want
to have a go at me -

what are you doing?

All I'm seeing is a lot of
hand movements and attitude.

All I'm seeing is a lot of
hand movements and attitude.

Because obviously
you can't understand words

or English.
Ooh, OK,

alright, watch out.

Oh.

MEL: And now he's imitating her
and belittling her.

So once you get to contempt,
you're in real, real problems.

So once you get to contempt,
you're in real, real problems.

And I think that's
what we're seeing.

You're being a bit of diva,
so you should

You're being a bit of diva,
so you should

just relax.
A diva?

Well, I just think I'm talking
to a brick wall right now.

Seriously, you can't understand
when someone's being emotional

and had to deal with
a week by themselves?

You're being ridiculous.

TRISHA: I can feel
Elizabeth's frustration.

She accepted
that he went to this funeral,

She accepted
that he went to this funeral,

but she wasn't expecting
no contact for a whole week

to a man she just married.

I think she was expecting
some kind of apology.

There's no empathy here.

There's no understanding.
No acknowledge of the impact.

There's no understanding.
No acknowledge of the impact.

What don't you understand about what
I'm trying to say?

I do understand.
Can you tell me what you...

It's just funny.
What's funny?

That my feelings are being hurt?

And with his smiling,
he's actually mocking her.

And with his smiling,
he's actually mocking her.

It's like pouring acid
on the relationship.

Very difficult to turn it
around from here.

You keep talking over me.

Because you're not making
bloody sense!

You say don't raise your voice.
I say I'm emotional,

and you're just like...

I'm just saying,
we can talk like human beings.

Oh, my God. You are ridiculous.
Like, seriously.

Come on, Lizzie.

Come on, Lizzie.

Nah. I'm done.

Nah. I'm done.

(CHURCH BELLS)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC)

With the first dinner party
of the experiment in full swing...

Anything else, anything at all!
(LAUGHS)

Anything else, anything at all!
(LAUGHS)

Our couples are more comfortable

..socialising
with the other newlyweds.

NIC: You know,
it's very early days

and the honeymoon's
just full of awkward.

You don't even know when to breathe
around the person still.

You don't even know when to breathe
around the person still.

Actually, I was like...
Yeah, you don't even know

how to touch a shoulder,
you're still awkward.

It's very early days.

CAM: Ah, so good.

Are you sleeping in the same bed?
Yeah.

Are you sleeping in the same bed?
Yeah.

Good.
Yeah.

Yeah, look, nothing
to write home about but, uh...

Well, it's just like
crossing the Nullarbor.

It's a long haul,

so, um...

so, um...

Can't give up on her,
can't give up on her.

You know...

Oh, like, see,

you've got the very edge.

So like there's the outskirts
of your double bed,

So like there's the outskirts
of your double bed,

So like there's the outskirts
of your double bed,

obviously it's exaggerated,

so Jess is like here

and then I'm like...

You're almost
coming off the edge there!

Sometimes - sometimes I sneak here

Sometimes - sometimes I sneak here

and then see the bloody...

Yeah.

(LAUGHTER)
Then the bloody...

All over there and then like,

sometimes even like
that sort of situation.

sometimes even like
that sort of situation.

And then it'll be bloody
all of a sudden...

You get a hit, you get a hit,
so you get outta there!

You get a hit, you get a hit,
so you get outta there!

JOHN: This is one of
the key challenges

JOHN: This is one of
the key challenges

in the experiment,
is how you navigate sex

and the pace of it
with a new partner.

Yeah.

Good.
Happy days.

(LAUGHTER)

(LAUGHTER)

(TENSE MUSIC)

Want some water, sweetie?

I've got water.
Yeah, 100%.

I said I was
going to come back, 100%.

Port Douglas? That's good.

Port Douglas? That's good.

Oh, mate.

New Zealand for you?

Yeah. (LAUGHS)

Nah, it was good.

This is not how I thought

it would go, though.
No.

Are we missing something here?

It doesn't feel like he understands

the significance
of what's happened

the significance
of what's happened

to the relationship.

I think she was hoping
for some kind of explanation

and understand about what's happened
but he's given her nothing, so...

Now she's going to get angry.

Now she's going to get angry.

How do you feel?

I think the kid's disgusting.

The fact that he's just
pushing my feelings aside

is making this
even more of a big deal.

Honestly, you've left me speechless -

I don't even know what to say.
You're just a dick.

I know. Like, (BLEEP) off,
who are you?

I know. Like, (BLEEP) off,
who are you?

She's grumpy.

Yeah, let her simmer down
a little bit. She'll come round.

It's not even - like I said,

it's not even my fault.

Um, I think Sam, you know,

went to the funeral,
had sex with his ex-girlfriend.

Like, you go missing for five days,

you couldn't make contact once?
Who are you kidding?

you couldn't make contact once?
Who are you kidding?

you couldn't make contact once?
Who are you kidding?

Like I was saying,
I'm not an arsehole, like...

I had to do what I had to do.

It just seemed really implausible

because you hadn't contacted her
when you were away.

I mean, it's not like
you're going to the Himalayas.

You're only in New Zealand.

And what, five days?
I don't know. Look,

it didn't look good on paper.
You know what I mean?

What do you do?

Let her be curious for a while.

She'll go through the motions.

Just cop it for a bit.

Do exactly what you were gonna do.

See, I would like it
if she just forgave you,

See, I would like it
if she just forgave you,

but I'm quick to forgive.

but I'm quick to forgive.

Is that men,
or is that certain individuals?

(GROANS)

Two men have gotten together
and they've summed her up -

she's very unreasonable.

Yep.
And now it's a fact.

What's really upsetting here

is the way in which Mike and Sam
are generalising.

is the way in which Mike and Sam
are generalising.

They're making the women wrong
because they have feelings.

Yeah, it makes sense.
Right. We're logical.

Yeah, it makes sense.
Right. We're logical.

MEL: As a woman,
it's very hard to combat

MEL: As a woman,
it's very hard to combat

because no matter what she says,
as a woman,

he's going to
further pathologize her

and say,
'Well, you're just saying that

because you're overly emotional.'

So she's actually
in a lose-lose situation.

So she's actually
in a lose-lose situation.

If someone wrongs me

and they have
a good reason for it,

I'm sort of like, yeah,
alright, well that makes sense.

Alright, I forgive you.
And sometimes I go, you know what?

I apologise to you,
because I think I misunderstood.

I apologise to you,
because I think I misunderstood.

INES: This is just so fun to watch.

Elizabeth is definitely
too much for Sam.

She's a bit extreme.

She's a bit extreme.

Argh! I just go, aw, girl!
Legit!

INES: I think, you know,
Sam's attractive -

surely Elizabeth
would have to know he's a playboy.

If I was Elizabeth,

If I was Elizabeth,

I would have sex with him
for as long as I could

before he left me.

I'm gonna sit back
and watch what unfolds.

CYRELL: You're not happy, are you?

CYRELL: You're not happy, are you?

What did he say?

He's like, why are you
raising your voice?

I said, 'I'm getting emotional.'
He's like, 'Calm down, breathe.'

I said, 'Aren't I allowed
to have emotions?'

So he's actually had the nerve

So he's actually had the nerve

to turn around and tell you
to calm down and relax your emotions

when he didn't even come
to your honeymoon?

Oh, bitch, I hope you told him off.
Are you gonna say something?

Oh, bitch, I hope you told him off.
Are you gonna say something?

Don't you realise how they

turn around
and put the blame on you?

You did nothing.
I did nothing!

He's not been here
after not seeing you

from your wedding day.

Go around then and talk to him.

Go around then and talk to him.

You know what you need to say.
You know what you wanna say.

Turn around and say
'I want to talk to you alone.'

Go.

Go around there and talk to him.

Go around there and talk to him.

Don't put up with it.

(EPIC DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oh, nice, yeah.

Can we go and have a chat?
Oh, yes, yeah.

Can we go and have a chat?
Oh, yes, yeah.

Yeah, I'll be back. I'll be back.

Um-mah! Good luck!
(CHUCKLES)

Um-mah! Good luck!

(CHURCH BELLS)

(TENSE MUSIC)

Oh, nice, yeah.

Oh, yes, yeah, yeah.
I'll be back.

Oh, yes, yeah, yeah.
I'll be back.

I'll be back, no worries.

I'll be back, no worries.

I'm honestly having
a really hard time

processing my emotions right now.
I'm actually really confused

and numb.

I need to sit down with him
and be like,

this is what
I've been going through.

this is what
I've been going through.

Um-mah, good luck!

(CHUCKLES)

I will definitely -
best believe me -

tell him how I've been feeling.

He needs to understand
where I'm coming from.

(SIGHS)

(SIGHS)

So...

I just wanted you to hear me out -
how I've actually been feeling.

I was kind of like,

what happens to me now?

what happens to me now?

I didn't realise
that you'd be gone so long.

I honestly had no idea
if you were even coming back.

I really need you to know
that it hurt.

Yep.

I don't wanna be with anyone
who's involved in their ex's life.

I don't wanna be with anyone
who's involved in their ex's life.

Yeah.
I just wanted you

to acknowledge the fact

that the honeymoon
was taken away from me.

It's been really hard.
I've been really, really angry.

I didn't know what was going on.

I didn't know what was going on.

I did leave a voicemail

and then there was nothing.

How can someone not consider
the other person's feelings

How can someone not consider
the other person's feelings

in this situation?
Getting really paranoid

in my own head
and bringing up past relationships...

in my own head
and bringing up past relationships...

(VOICEOVER) Ugh,
she won't stop talking.

What's the point
in me even being here?

What's the point...
(V.O.) It's a nightmare.

(V.O.) It's a bloody nightmare.

Did you get the voicemail
that I left?

(V.O.) Kill me.

(V.O.) Kill me.

I didn't know what to do.

(V.O.) I'm just looking at her
just going, oh, please stop.

Are you even wanting to be here?

Yeah, I definitely am.

Yeah, I definitely am.

(V.O.)
(BLEEP) get me outta here.

Just imagine
if the roles were reversed.

Just imagine
if the roles were reversed.

How would you feel about that?

(V.O.) How do I stop this?

I've given up a lot to be here.

(V.O.) How do I
tell this girl to stop?

(V.O.) How do I
tell this girl to stop?

Did you ever, like,

when you were away just go,
I wonder how she's doing?

Yeah, I don't know,
I don't know. I'm just sorry.

(QUIRKY MUSIC)

Honestly,

I just want you to know
that I'm sorry.

I just want you to know
that I'm sorry.

I have to be honest, I was not
expecting you to say that.

OK, yeah...

Like... thank you.

Yep.
(STAMMERS) That's...

Yep.
(STAMMERS) That's...

That's kind of
what I needed to hear first.

That's kind of
what I needed to hear first.

Yep, right.

Like...

I know I probably came across
like a bit of a dick

when I walked in and whatever
and I understand you're angry,

when I walked in and whatever
and I understand you're angry,

but...

That's just not - I'm not that guy.

I'm confused...

(QUIRKY MUSIC CONTINUES)

..as to what just happened.

..as to what just happened.

I do understand now

where you're coming from
and what you're saying.

I understand.

This has just done my head in.

Can I hug you? Is that alright?

Can I hug you? Is that alright?

Can I hug you? Is that alright?

Is that OK?
That's OK.

I didn't expect Sam to be apologetic.

Like, it can't just be that simple
and be like, 'OK, I messed up,

let's move on,
I'll make it up to you.'

I'm just like, what's the catch?

I'm just like, what's the catch?

(GRUNTS)
OK.

You alright?
Mm-hmm.

I didn't expect you to, like,
apologise.

Of course I was going to apologise.

(CHATTER)

That crazy girl, what's her name?
Sam and Lizzie.

That crazy girl, what's her name?
Sam and Lizzie.

Yeah, Sam...

In real life,
he would never look at her, right?

In real life,
he would never look at her, right?

You know, he's that hot, right?

He's that hot
and he's that charming, he would...

Personally,
I don't find him attractive.

I think he looks like
a complete twit.

I think he looks like
a complete twit.

Oh, really?

Sam is like a hot guy, you know?

But I know a playboy
when I see a playboy.

Yeah, I'm done with that stuff now.
Yep.

We'll be alright.

We'll be alright.

I'll make it up to you.
You happy now? Lizzie's back.

Happy? Excited?
Happy? Happy? Yeah, I'm happy.

Happy? Excited?
Happy? Happy? Yeah, I'm happy.

I think Elizabeth
is kidding herself.

Like, absolutely kidding herself.

Like, absolutely kidding herself.

I hope so.
What?

Happy days.

Hope so.

(CHEERY MUSIC)

MELISSA: I have had the best night!

MELISSA: I have had the best night!

It was so, so, so, so good
seeing everyone

and I'm just
so happy for all of them.

They are all so loved up.

They are all so loved up.

And they've been matched perfectly.

And they've been matched perfectly.

So meeting Mike was amazing.

So, looking at him,
if Jason Statham

So, looking at him,
if Jason Statham

and Bruce Willis had a baby,

that is him, right? Amazing.

Heidi's a hugely lucky girl.

Mike is a hugely lucky guy.

They're just beautiful together.

They're just beautiful together.

Cameron,

stop it! Like, you know what?

That is a six,
or whatever they say in cricket.

He is an absolute six.
He's a legend.

He is an absolute six.
He's a legend.

He is an absolute six.
He's a legend.

Those two, as a couple, beautiful.

I mean, the experts
have outdone themselves.

So, OK, I'm just saying,

you two have everything in common.

Yeah!
MARTHA: Thank you!

Yeah!
MARTHA: Thank you!

Like, isn't Martha
just like the pinup,

you know, Greek goddess,

beautiful, house-mother

and then her match, oh, my God -
like, his little manbun,

his gorgeous little cuteness.

Like, I said
I want them to have my babies.

Right away. What a match.

Right away. What a match.

Right away. What a match.

So I've just been so entertained
and been excited

to speak to everyone.

(LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

Hi, babe.

Hi, babe.

Oh, dear, are you OK?

Nah, I'm not really.

I feel like I've missed
a very vital part of this story.

So Heidi's partner

looked directly at Mick and I

looked directly at Mick and I

and he was like, oh, that's so fake.

What's so fake?
Mick and I.

Coming into the dinner party,

I did hear Mike say,
'That's so fake,'

I did hear Mike say,
'That's so fake,'

or 'You're so fake.'
It was something along those lines.

It was directed straight at me
and I'm not just gonna sleep on it.

Like, I'm not gonna let this go.

Honey, could we have
a conversation with you?

Honey, could we have
a conversation with you?

Yeah, OK.

I have to tell you,

I'm a little put out with a comment
that was made earlier.

I'm a little put out with a comment
that was made earlier.

About what?

You sort of looked straight at me

You sort of looked straight at me

and you were like,

'Oh, that's so fake.'

What? No, I didn't.
Yes, you did.

What? No, I didn't.
Yes, you did.

No, I didn't.
You did.

No, I didn't.
You did.

I'm sorry, what?

No, you definitely did.

Sweetheart, you're wrong about that.
I tell you what,

there's nothing about you

there's nothing about you

that looks fake to me, OK?

So I wouldn't have made the comment.

I look at you
and I don't see a fake girl.

I see a pretty blonde girl.

See them all the time.

See them all the time.

You seem lovely.

You seem lovely.

Why would I make
a criticism like that about you?

I'm not really too sure,
which I why I brought you over.

Wow, this is confrontational.

Absolutely.
Jess is hauling him in.

Absolutely.
Jess is hauling him in.

MEL: So what we're seeing
with Jessika

is she's taken this one small issue

and blown it way out of proportion.

MIKE: I definitely didn't say it.
Maybe you've misunderstood

what I've said.
Yeah, I...

what I've said.
Yeah, I...

Yeah - I think, yeah.

Perhaps. And I'm loving
how you're speaking up now, babe.

JOHN: And Mick's
just sitting beside...

Yes.
..Mike right now

and...

and...

He's not saying anything.

MEL: He's a non-confrontational
kind of guy.

Can you give me the context
in which I said it?

Should I draw
like a diaphragm of where we were?

'Diagram'.

What did I say?
What were the words? Like...

'That's so fake.'

And you looked directly at me

as you said it.

I wouldn't have said it.

I wouldn't have said it.

I'm completely focused

on that girl up the end
and my opinion of you is a high one.

Perhaps you heard me

Perhaps you heard me

say something else.
Yeah, perhaps I have...

Know what I mean? That's all?

Know what I mean? That's all?

..I have, yeah,
got it out of context.

Yeah, well, I don't want there
to be a misunderstanding out there.

I'm glad we've solved this.

Let's stand up

and have a cuddle.

and have a cuddle.

I didn't hear it, but yeah, I...

Yeah, of course
you didn't hear it, honey.

Let's hug it out.

Let's hug it out. Come on.

Please don't take
anything away from it.

Alright, good talk. Good talk.
Thanks, hun.

Alright, good talk. Good talk.
Thanks, hun.

I love how you stood up
for me there, babe. Thanks.

I love how you stood up
for me there, babe. Thanks.

I didn't hear it, darl.

I didn't hear it. I can't bloody

stand up for anything
if I didn't hear it.

stand up for anything
if I didn't hear it.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I am (BLEEP) upset.

Did she hear what she heard?
Did she not hear?

Did he say it?

What do you do? I don't know.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

What's this all about?

I do feel like she set him up there,

I do feel like she set him up there,

because that was not an occasion
that he was going to rise to.

Did she hear what she heard?
Did she not hear?

Did he say it?

What do you do? I don't know.

What do you do? I don't know.

I'm upset with the fact that

you know how much
I hate confrontation...

Yeah.
..and I've had to go and grab

your friend, who, you know,
you sit there

and you have
this great (BLEEP) banter with.

and you have
this great (BLEEP) banter with.

I told you I didn't hear it, darl.
I know, but...

Like, it doesn't matter!

You should still be there for me

as a partner.
I was there!

You weren't!

You sat there the whole time,
looking at me

You sat there the whole time,
looking at me

and looking at him, like,

'I don't know
what we're talking about.'

(STAMMERS)

(SIGHS)

Like, I had to deal with
that whole situation

Like, I had to deal with
that whole situation

on my own, babe,
it's not fair!

Like, I didn't want to

I felt like you weren't even
there for me as a partner!

I... (SIGHS)

I don't even know
what you want me to say here.

I don't want you to say anything.

You know what,
just don't worry about it.

Don't worry about it, Mick.

It's what it's like all the time.

Every time it comes down
to something hard,

Every time it comes down
to something hard,

you sit there and you say,

'I don't know what to say!
I don't know what to say!'

Why don't you pour yourself another
(BLEEP) beer and (BLEEP) off!

Why don't you pour yourself another

(DOOR SLAMS)

JOHN: Mick loves to please everybody,

you know,
he doesn't want to create waves

you know,
he doesn't want to create waves

and this conflict

is very difficult for him.
Yep.

And truly,
he doesn't know what to say.

Yeah, he does.

How's it going?

I'm hating my husband.

I don't know whether

or something, I don't know.

or something, I don't know.

I don't bloody know.

I'm upset that Mick
hasn't had my back

in a sense where I would have his.

Like, if someone had said
something nasty about Mick tonight

Like, if someone had said
something nasty about Mick tonight

about, you know,

they hate his work boots
or his flanno,

whatever, that's what
makes Mick, Mick, right?

And if someone
had said something to me

And if someone
had said something to me

The fact that Mick's just sat there

with his hands back, going,

'I don't know
what you're talking about, darl.

Pour me another beer.'

Like, it makes me look idiotic

I love that laugh.

I know, like Count Dracula

from Sesame Street.
I love it, love it.

from Sesame Street.
I love it, love it.

One, mwah-ha-ha-ha.
Two, mwah-ha-ha.

No, when I'm laughing,
you'll hear people in the background

going, 'One,

two, and I'm like, ha, ha, ha.

two, and I'm like, ha, ha, ha.

I'm like, to Mel,
'Don't ever change that,

because that's you.'

It's like a gaggle of Counts.

Like, yeah.

You do it better than me!
(LAUGHS)

You do it better than me!
(LAUGHS)

You do my laugh
better than I can laugh!

Don't do that -
like, you're making my laugh...

Everyone's had a go
at doing my laugh

Everyone's had a go
at doing my laugh

and it got remixed tonight.

How does it go, Cam?
(IMITATES LAUGH)

Seven!

(ALL LAUGH)

I'm definitely going to
come into the next dinner party

I'm definitely going to
come into the next dinner party

with a cape on,
like Count Dracula.

So, you know...

You're so cute!
..gotta embrace the laugh. Yep.

You're so cute!
(MUFFLED LAUGH)

You're so cute!
(MUFFLED LAUGH)

NARRATOR: It's late in the evening

and as our first dinner party
winds down,

Matt is still not off the hook

Matt is still not off the hook

as the conversation
returns to the bedroom.

I was interested about, you know,

you were talking about
the love life,

You're kissing her?

You're kissing her?

MATT: As the dinner party
progresses,

people keep hounding me
about specifics.

'Did you guys do it?
Are you still a virgin?'

I guess they're kind of
fascinated by it.

They're curious and then they're
also curious to see if, you know,

They're curious and then they're
also curious to see if, you know,

They're curious and then they're
also curious to see if, you know,

that's no longer the case. Um...

Are you at heavy petting?

Sweet.

We're at heavy petting, too.

Yeah. And is there chemistry?

Like, when you have kissing,
are you like, yeah?

Yeah.

Good.
(CHUCKLES)

You know what's great
about Matthew right now,

You know what's great
about Matthew right now,

it's that he's holding his own

in a social situation
where he's getting grilled

and he typically hates

that situation.
Yeah.

that situation.
Yeah.

Proud of you, mate.

Look at the guns on this kid. What?

Look at the guns on this kid. What?

Can I touch them?
It's just the shirt.

They actually do look
very defined in that material.

It's just the shirt.

I'm enjoying looking at them.

They are.
Nearly - watch out.

They are.
Nearly - watch out.

No, they are.

I got rimmed a new one out there.

You know,

I'm in the dog house

for something I didn't hear
and I didn't back her up.

for something I didn't hear
and I didn't back her up.

Bloody...

I don't get it.

I don't get it either.
This is why I'm single.

I don't get it either.
This is why I'm single.

I totally agree!
Before this, yeah.

I've got no answers for you,
either, so...

I've got no answers for you,
either, so...

You were stuck.
I don't know.

Like, you couldn't win.
You're in trouble.

(EXASPERATED SPLUTTERING)

Well, a massive first dinner party,

wasn't it?
I mean, what a night.

Exhausting.
So much drama going on here.

Exhausting.
So much drama going on here.

What do you do?
MEL: I think tonight

has brought up
a lot of questions for us

has brought up
a lot of questions for us

rather than answers.

TRISHA: And we've got couples
who are travelling really well.

(LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

But we've also got couples
who are really on shaky ground.

Which is going to make it
really interesting

for the commitment ceremony.

for the commitment ceremony.

Can't wait for that,

because we can ask
some really hard questions

and get to the bottom

Commitment ceremony
is going to be big.

I think tonight
actually was quite dramatic. Like,

Jess attracts drama, whatever.

I wasn't expecting Sam
to come back in

and rescue Elizabeth.

and rescue Elizabeth.

Oh, my God.

Sam - he's so hot.

There's no way them two
are gonna build

a healthy marriage together.

a healthy marriage together.

Elizabeth, she's a liability
in my eyes.

Do you carry on as husband and wife?

Do you carry on as husband and wife?

Or do you call it quits?

In the very first commitment
ceremony...

I feel like he was tailor
made for me.

..real love...

He's a great guy.

Struck gold.

Struck gold.

I just, wanna touch him.

..is in the air.

But, big trouble...

..is brewing.

I don't wanna be here.

Well (bleep)off.

Oh my god!

I think Sam is used to getting
what Sam wants.

So thanks for being a jerk, Sam.

How's the intimacy going?

I don't know how you put it
delicately...

I don't know how you put it
delicately...

We really connected, and then, um...

Things have spiralled and now your
communication style is appalling.

A tip from me to you...

..don't use language like that.

..don't use language like that.

Don't speak about women like that,

if you want any chance of a
relationship with a woman.

Married's first commitment ceremony.
