Previously on Are You The One?
You are someone who is deserving of every inch of love
and every inch of passion.
Just being treated right, it's new.
We're two people in an experiment,
and we're fucking up the experiment.
I fuckin' knew.
If we're going based on probability,
Clay could be my perfect match.
And I wanna be my best version of myself for him.
Boom! Perfect match!
That's it, guys. Six beams.
Same as last week.
Head back to the house and get to work.
There's no time to waste.
We only had two additional beams.
Being at the very end right now, we don't have time to waste.
The house is just confused.
Who do we actually think those beams could be?
There's a lot that just happened right now.
Okay, Aqel and Anissa sat together.
Me and Leo sat together.
You and...
- Hamudi. - Hamudi sat together.
Two of us aren't.
And I'm, my gut feeling's still telling me
it's Mikey that's my match.
This week is hella important,
'cause we have no more time to waste.
We've done too many switch ups now.
- Yeah, so we'll... - Too many.
It's Aqel, Anissa, me, Mikey...
- I see Hamudi, like... - Better.
And that's the thing, that's, I just see Mikey better than Leo.
That's why I, I thought it was always Mikey.
The two beams were tonight were you and Hamudi,
and, and Jordanne and Eduardo.
Or Will and CC.
I don't see that one.
- No, no... - I don't see it.
It's Dew. It's Dew and Will.
I think it's Dew and Will.
We've played with our hearts,
but now we have so much information to go by,
that we cannot be stupid or blind anymore.
I've noticed that when we come up
to the matchup ceremony,
it's like...
A lot of the times, you, you bring up that we're,
we're just friends.
Everybody knows how I feel about Anissa.
Everything that she hasn't had in her past relationships
is literally everything that I have to offer.
And vice versa.
I'm not saying that we're not a match.
We most definitely can be that one beam from week two.
Am I certain?
- No. - Big facts.
And that's why, and that's exactly why I keep saying
we can be, it's a maybe.
I'm not taking it off the table,
but I'm not putting all my eggs in one basket on it.
Me and Anissa are one of the key couples,
'cause we have sat together the most.
And every time we've sat together, we've had beams.
And when we haven't sat together,
we got less beams.
Leo can potentially be my match, too.
And that's fine.
With Leo, he can bring me out of my bubble.
He's very spontaneous and adventurous,
and that's something that I feel like
I need in someone.
But with Aqel and I, he is an honorable man.
He's very genuine.
He's the type of man that I know I deserve.
The reason why I've been goin' hard for you from day one
is because I truly and honestly believe that
we are a perfect match.
Just because of everything that you've been through,
everything that you say that you need.
I am super confused with who my perfect match is.
I really think it could be Leo,
but I also still feel it could be Aqel.
Aqel and I have said that we, we always believed in some sense
that we could be that potential beam.
I'm really gonna try and win the next challenge,
so Aqel and I can go into the truth booth,
so I can, like, confirm it completely.

Smoothie gang.
What'd you think about last night, Mikey?
I feel like I knew we would probably get
the same amount of beams as the week before.
You did?
Yeah.
Obviously, we, we, I felt like we kinda know
which couples need to be swapped now,
and needs to be kept, pretty sure.
Do you believe you and Dew are a match, or no?
Nah, she knows she's with Will.
There's a lot of tension in the house at the moment.
Dew hates Will.
They've obviously both kinda came to the conclusion
that they might be a perfect match,
but they don't want to be.
Well, obviously, with everything that's going on
I don't think they want to sit together, but oh well.
Too bad.
The only person who I would be able to pick supposedly is Will,
because he's probably my match.
He said that you actually
deserve a date out of this house,
'cause so many people annoy you.
That is why he's trying to say,
because he wants to take me out on a date.
Dew, she does not care what anyone has to say.
She just does not wanna listen.
No, I think it's because genuinely...
I don't want to!
But unfortunately, we are a team.
It's not Dew and everyone else. It's Dew with us.
- No, I'm not saying... - I don't...
I don't believe what...
He is using it as an excuse!
And you know the worst is that
I know already what he's going to say when he's gonna pick me.
He's gonna say, "She's misunderstood."
I don't hate you, Dew.
But you don't need to be fake. You don't need to say...
I literally tell everyone the same thing
that I'm telling you right now.
"No, Dew is great.
She's misunderstood, she's caring."
I don't want to be called misunderstood,
that's not a personality trait.
- Other people... - I don't like that.
- Then I won't say that. - Okay.
If you don't want that, I won't say that.
This is making no sense.
Speechless.
What we're going to be doing today,
have two people sit down together...
And you have two minutes.
And talk to each other why you think you're a perfect match.
And what we're gonna do after that,
just rotate those couples.
- So, you go from here. - Speed dating.
It's like, yeah, speed dating.
Okay.
Some people are avoiding each other.
They haven't even spoken before,
and you need to give everybody a chance.
And this speed dating was a great way to do it.
You might click with someone
you just haven't clicked with before,
and try to change your mind in any way.
Hamudi is bringin' everybody together.
So we can do this speed dating,
just to kinda get us talking to the people we may have not been
talking to this whole time.
Stop, go! Action!
Why do you think you are my perfect match?
I don't fucking know, why, what the fuck do you need?
What are you, what were you looking for?
Who, who's your perfect match?
Speed dating is definitely helping us.
What'd you tell the matchmaker?
Like, the fuck?
It confused a couple of the girls.
But...
But it, it definitely helped us guys.
You didn't want someone that you had to reassure,
and I'm just not the type that needs reassurance.
- Yeah. - I see...
Like, a lot of where I could fit what you need.
I'm very caring.
I'm very open.
I'm very straightforward, but I'm also very protective.
I like to look after their needs.
Sometimes, before my own needs.
I have to really work out what went wrong last time,
and where I can really change it.
What are your deal breakers?
I don't want someone who's going to try to change me.
And I don't, also, want someone that I have to try and change.
I don't want to have to be screaming...
That's, that's exactly what I asked for.
Word for word.
Roz is amazing!
She really just brings out the best side of me.
Right now, I, I just think there's only a couple things...
Things that are different, yeah.
I feel like it has to be Leo.
And I think he realized I'm everything he asked for,
and he's got bits and pieces of things I've also asked for.
Where's your head at with, like, everything?
I don't know how do I say it.
You don't have to tense up, don't overthink it.
We just need to know what's going on.
Don't make it, like, too difficult.
That's when you need to ask another question, huh?
Yeah, well, start with that.
Where's your head at with everything?
Well...
I don't know.
That's why I don't know how to answer.
Dew, you're really making it so difficult.
I see you, like, you just wanna believe and trust.
Yeah.
And be secure in a relationship.
And that's what I wanna do, too.
I don't wanna have...
Do you think, maybe, we should've
had a chat weeks ago?
Eduardo's quite difficult to unravel.
When I've spoken to him at the beginning,
we had fairly deep chats.
But then coming to the end and realizing that
we could potentially be a match, he, he did open up a lot more.
I don't like to ask things in my relationships.
I don't...
I feel like I can always do it myself.
Like, I don't need help. Like, I can do it on my own.
But I also have a hard time asking.
So, like, you are very giving when you want to.
And I appreciate that.
Danielle, she understands me, everything.
I talk to her, we kinda relate so much in different ways.
I like somebody who has their own goals.
I don't want them to depend on me, like...
That's a lot of things I asked for
'cause my ex depended on me for his happiness.
Hamudi, his eggs are in another basket,
and I feel like there could've been
some chances that were missed.
You could be my match.
So we both put our career first,
and that's not something that I like.
Yeah, and you don't like materialistic things, right?
Dew's been on my list for a little while.
We have a lot in common.
We have such a similar past.
I know we've had our shitty up and downs
or whatever, but I can show you, like, look.
This isn't what love and everything
is supposed to be like.
You know what I mean?
So, I feel like that's extremely huge
for you and for myself.
Will and I have similar backgrounds.
Literally, I can see the similarities in us.
I do think that he could be my match.
- Then we good. - Mm-hm.
Good job.
Hey, everyone.
Hi, Kamie.
It's week nine.
Only two more matchup ceremonies left.
You came here from all over the world
because you wanted our matchmakers' help
to help you find true love.
And I believe that you will find that love,
because your perfect matches are right here in this room.
Find them, and you'll leave this experience
having found true love, and...
750 thousand dollars!
At the last matchup ceremony, you got six beams.
How are you guys feeling after last week?
We got a lot of information, so I can't be upset about that.
You guys have a better idea now of how you wanna move?
Yeah.
Okay.
For your next getaway challenge,
we're gonna seeing who you think
has been making the most out of this experience.
One at a time, you will head down to the challenge area.
Where you will find photos of your remaining housemates,
and three podiums.
You will answer the question by ranking your housemates
in first, second, and third place.
Who qualifies to go on the dates will be determined by
what's inside of this sealed envelope.
Aqel, this is for you to hold, but you know...
You can't open it just yet. Okay?
- So, keep it safe. - For sure.
Appreciate you.
It's time for another chance at a getaway date.
Are we ready?
Yes.
Okay, Anissa! Head on down.
♪ You know I get it done
♪ I get it done
♪ Oh, I don't stop until I get it done ♪
Oh, this is a hard one.
Who has shown the most growth?
I don't know.
Oh, boom, my guy Leo.
Leo, fuck yeah.
Leo definitely has given the most growth.
He has shown to me the most self awareness.
Rewinding back to day one,
he did a couple mistakes at the beginning.
I don't care that we're not a match.
Brooke and I would voluntarily get out to the honeymoon suite.
Like, that's where we're at.
Mijntje's tryin' to give me advice.
Fuck that shit!
Sad that obviously we aren't a match.
You really think I'm into you?
But he's taken accountability,
and he has a lot of self awareness
of what he's doing.
And he's a completely different man
from day one to where he is now.
Leo.
No, I'm happy for 'em. They're amazing people.
And I wouldn't wanna see Brooke with anyone else.
Hamudi, I put him first.
I see him changing a lot.
Hamudi was kinda really shy, in his shell.
It takes me a while before I can, like, open up slowly.
You know, and now, like, he's one of the loudest guys
in the house, and everybody loves him.
I don't care, they can put me on anybody.
I'm happy, because end of the day,
I'm playing this as a team.
Second, I'm gonna go with CC.
I'mma put my beautiful girl CC in the middle.
She came in a bit of a wreck.
And I'm genuinely hurt right now,
so if I'm shutting down, I just...
Can you just...?
But she's trying to learn.
When you came from nothing and you brought yourself up,
that's a big achievement.
Oh God, I needed this conversation.
I think I'm gonna go with Dew,
'cause I feel like she's grown massively
and just learned how to be around more people in the house.
Dew... We're still stuck on day one.
But it's okay, baby.
You're, you're so strong-minded, I love it.
Danielle, she, she started opening up quite a lot.
Showing her past relationship that she never had.
Danielle, as she's really come out of her shell.
Now she's got super confidence in herself.
I just want to have, like, my best friend in life.
And I don't need to be judged for like, who I am.
I actually believe she deserves a lot more
than how she was bein' treated.
One, two, three, done.
You just finished your getaway challenge,
where you were asked to rank your housemates
in first, second, and third place
based on who you think has grown the most from this experience.
Now, remember.
Who will be awarded the dates
is based on the results in the challenge
and what's in the sealed envelope
- that Aqel... - Oh yeah, huh.
Has possession of.
So Aqel, please do us the honors.
"The top ranked housemate chooses their date,
and another couple to also go on a date."
Big responsibility.
And the person that you all thought
showed the most growth is...
It's Leo!
Goes straight to my guy Leo.
I have seen him, day in and day out,
become a better and better person.
Really more cognitive of the things that he does and says.
I really care a lot about all these people.
And early on, I didn't know how
to talk to 'em in the right way and respect them.
In the real world, I've shied away from how I've acted
and gotten away with it.
And here, you can't do that.
But just to really have these people give me a, a,
more chances has been amazing.
Good man.
- Leo. - Yep.
Who would you like to take on a date?
The person I'm taking on this date,
she knows me different than a lot of people in this house.
You know? And...
I've been wanting to, you know, explore more with her
and stand next to her at the matchup ceremony,
so I'm goin' with Anissa.
- Hey, Anissa. - Hi.
How do you feel about going on a date with Leo?
I feel great.
Our connection has been really good the past couple of weeks.
We've been learning a lot about each other.
Aqel and Anissa are a perfect match.
This is awkward.
Leo.
So, obviously, the choice is ultimately yours.
But you can also feel free to discuss it with Anissa
as to who you want to choose to go on the date.
These beautiful people have yet to be on a date,
and I think they could be a potential match.
So, I'm goin' with Roz and Mikey.
I mean, Roz and Mikey could be great together.
They could be a match, and, and that's a true connection.
How do you feel? You're picked for the date.
Yeah, I didn't expect this!
But you're happy?
- Oh, yeah, of course! - Absolutely.
- I'm really buzzed.
I'm annoyed.
Had Leo chosen either Roz and him,
or me and Eduardo,
or Aqel and Anissa,
we would be a lot further along.
He's not thinking strategically.
Leo, you fumbled the ball.
You guys wanna hear where you're going?
Yes!
Pack your swimsuits.
'Cause you guys are gonna get to kick back, relax,
and enjoy the island life.
Okay...
Sipping champagne, eating oysters...
I've never had oysters!
In a romantic poolside cabana.
Okay, okay!
Wow.
A double whammy of aphrodisiacs there, so you're welcome.
Yes, yeah.
All right, guys, have fun! Off you go!
Enjoy!
♪ Get ready, get ready
♪ Livin' my best life
- Oh my gosh. - Wow.
This is my third date, it feels way different.
Super fun!
Anissa's an amazing woman.
She's helped me a lot through this house,
ever since Brooke's left.
♪ Get ready, get ready
♪ I got that power
♪ And you know I'm settin' it free ♪
♪ I'm livin' louder ♪
♪ You know what's louder than me? ♪
♪ Callin' that livin' my best life ♪
How you feeling?
I feel like I kinda got, like, like, a new,
like, breath of fresh air, honestly.
Like, in the house and stuff.
Yeah, you've grown a shit ton throughout this process.
You've helped me grow, though.
- You think so? - Yeah.
Because Leo is so outspoken, outgoing,
he's like the party type.
I'm able to, like, actually break through those walls
and allow him to be vulnerable.
Allow him to be more self aware,
and conscious of what he's doing.
You are probably more of, like, what I wanted
and needed at the same time.
So one, I was like, I wanted someone that's an athlete,
someone that's always in the gym,
someone that can be, like, spontaneous
and all that stuff.
But need, I need somebody that's gonna help me be confident.
Coming off of a 12 year relationship,
I don't wanna waste my time again.
So, I need to be certain.
I mean, the vibes with Anissa, it was right.
She opened up to me, it, it was perfect.
Can I kiss you?
Stop, Leo!
He's normally the type of man that I go for,
but I have a deeper connection with Aqel, obviously.
That's fair, so now you know what type of man I am.
Yeah.
I don't just go in, I'm a, I'm a forward guy.
I appreciate that.
- Cheers to that. - Being respectful, though.
No problem.
Okie dokie, ladies.
Leo and Anissa haven't sat together at all.
Aqel is super set on Anissa.
If we don't send them to the truth booth,
he might not let her go.
Do what you gotta do.
Mikey and Roz, obviously they've sat together before,
so make them a match and rule out things.
I mean, it's pretty much a no-brainer
to vote in Mikey and Roz.
And it's not a biased decision,
it's based on strategy and what's gonna give us
the absolute most information.
Anissa and Leo have never sat together,
so they've never been any beam at any point in time.
I'm gonna go Roz and Mikey.
I feel like Roz deserves Mikey,
she's been on him for awhile now.
For me, Roz and Mikey it is.
- Let's go, team! - All right.
Perfect match!
Let's go.
Wow.
Cheers.
- To an amazing date. - First date!
Love this, love this.
With Roz, it seems like more of, like, a friendship.
That it could develop, I don't know.
And after Danielle not bein' my match,
it's been a bit of a tough time in the house
tryin' to work out which actually is the match.
You're beautiful.
- Thank you. - You're funny.
You are a little loud a bit, sometimes.
Sometimes? All the time!
But you're loud in a good way.
Do you know what I mean? You're not loud in a...
You're not loud in a fiery, intimidatin' way.
Thank you, thank you. Correct word, I like that.
He knows me without me havin' to explain myself.
Because he sees it.
Me and Mikey have a lot more talkin' to do,
but I feel like I'm gettin' there with him.
Oh yeah, try your first oyster.
Oh my God, mm-hm. You know what, I'mma try that.
Does it taste like mussels? Okay.
Cheers.
What do you think?
You hate it. You absolutely hate it.
I don't know!
It tastes good.
I don't trust your taste palate.
- Wash it down. - Mm-hm.
Oh my God.
Good evening, y'all.
Hi!
Well, I really hope that you guys have taken my advice
from the last matchup ceremony.
And you've been thinking hard about each and every beam,
and who they might belong to.
But I cannot wait to hear about your dates.
So, Leo...
Comin' to you first.
You've been on a few dates.
- Yeah. - How was it with Anissa?
Couldn't have been better, I felt at home.
I've always known that, that me and Anissa
are a match.
And everybody's been tellin' me that I'm wrong and shit,
and sometimes you just gotta let these fools just walk
and figure out the path on they own.
With Leo, we found that we have like, a really good balance.
He's taking me out of my little bubble
that I put myself in.
So, today was a really fun date.
I think you are a match.
If I didn't vote for Anissa and Leo,
that maybe Aqel would pick her again.
So...
So, you don't think that Aqel and Anissa are a match?
I don't. I think that they are a match.
You think Leo and Anissa
- Are a match? - Yes.
I haven't had that one-on-one date with Aqel, obviously.
And I feel like there's a lot of distraction in the house,
so there is potential that me and Aqel
can also have a deeper connection
if we were to go on a date.
And who is your match, Dew?
I think he's my match.
Who is he?
- Will. - We made some progress today!
Dew, baby girl!
She's coming around.
Roz and Mikey, are you surprised to be in
this position right now?
Well, I appreciate what Leo has done by givin' us a chance
to actually get to know each other deeper.
Because if we are a true match,
then you know what, it also
cancels out a lot of information for people for week two.
So, it is kind of a yes and no.
True, I really hope that this truth booth
gives you the piece of the puzzle
that you need at this stage of the game.
All right.
The votes are in.
And the couple headed into the truth booth is...
Mikey and Roz is the most information.
Whether they are or whether they aren't,
versus the wild card, Leo and Anissa.
Roz and Mikey.
How are you feeling about going into the truth booth?
I'm excited.
I'm glad everybody voted us in, and yeah,
you're gonna get a lot of information, either or.
Mikey and Roz, if they are a perfect match,
it absolutely rules out me and Anissa.
It rules out Leo for Danielle, and that's it.
Anissa and Leo, are you disappointed to not be
sent in tonight?
No, I'm hoping that they are a perfect match.
Okay, this is it.
Roz and Mikey, it is time for you guys to go down to
the truth booth,
and find if you are each other's perfect match.
You can head on down!
Good luck!
I'm excited to go into
the truth booth tonight with Roz.
We've got to know each other on a deeper level,
and we're really excited to get into truth booth
and find out if we're a match or not.
If Mikey's not my match,
I do not have a fuckin' clue what I've been doin' or sayin'
this whole goddamn, whole goddamn ten weeks.
We're goin' into this truth booth,
it's probably our most important one.
Because we're still guessin' about who's coupled.
Oh God.
You know, there's a lot at stake for us right now.
We really need, you know,
another perfect match would be great to help us out.
Perfect match! Perfect match!
Come on! Come on!
No!
Oh fuck, you guys.
We're a no match.
Fuck...
Fuck!
- It's okay. - Shit!
Who the fuck could be her match?
I don't know!
You guys, we don't have time for this shit.
It could've been Leo.
Oh...
Shit.
I mean, that was the strategy.
Yeah.
Everybody thinks that me and her are a match,
because we've gotten along great, she's picked me twice.
I've picked her, so yeah.
Aww, Rozzy!
- Fuck. - No!
I know. Thanks.
It's okay!
I know.
It's okay!
Leo, he could've went with Roz.
'Cause that was the beams that happened.
They were sitting together, so...
The whole thing is fucked, now.
We're really gonna have to dig deep
and work out who the potential matches are,
so we can finish on a high.
Just need a bit of a break.
No, we don't know everything in this house.
I am so lost.
Let's just take a break. - Tomorrow, I'mma be up.
Work things out.
Getting ready.
Me and Roz stayed up all night,
working out the scenarios
and the scenarios within those scenarios
that could be the possible beams.
I didn't sit with Leo any of the early weeks, so...
No, but week six.
Okay, week six, yeah, 'cause I thought...
I'm talking about this one.
- The four beam one. - Yeah.
But the four beam one was week three.
We're goin' back to week two. We have three possible options.
Jordanne came up with it.
- What's you call it? - A logical tree,
where we set up three perfect matches
from the week where we only had
- those options. - Three options.
As a perfect match, 'cause we had one beam.
So there's three scenarios that we can follow,
and they will show us which person is our match.
I stayed up all night, working this out.
Figuring out every single possible scenario.
And it's impossible that Eduardo's my match.
In real life, that's my match. But here?
No.
So, week two. We have two beams.
Week two has the most information,
because if we can secure one beam from there,
everything else falls in place.
And as much as we hated those one beam weeks,
they speak volumes.
Okay, so week two, we have two beams.
Aqel and Anissa, Ollie and Brooke.
Okay, yeah.
Brooke is out, so there's one there.
So I feel like tonight, we have to stick with
Aqel and Anissa
because they're the ones who sat together the most.
We are bankin' a lot on them bein' the match.
I know it's risky.
Week three, we have four beams.
Me and Danielle sat together.
- One beam. - One beam.
Ollie and Brooke.
- Ollie and Brooke. - Aqel and I.
- Aqel and you. - Brendan and...
- Julia Ruth. - Brendan and Julia Ruth.
- There you go. - Four beams.
Yes!
I think that this is the first time that we have
collectively agreed on the strategy.
We're really putting all our eggs in one basket
with Aqel and I being a perfect match.
Then I'll therefore still be with CC in this one.
- We've never sat together. - Oh, you've never sat together?
- No. - Perfect.
We'll try it out.
Yes!
At the end of the house meeting,
I do agree with the plan.
And for me, tonight it's gonna be Courtney.
Courtney does make sense to me on paper for sure.
Our upbringing, what we want in the future.
I am so fucking tired.

It's week nine.
We've been fucking it up so many times.

Hey, everyone!
Hey, Kamie!
Welcome to your ninth matchup.
Can you believe it?
Insane.
But let's talk about those beams.
Over the last nine weeks,
you've all been working to leave
the issues of your past relationships behind you
and find your perfect match.
You all traveled here from around the globe,
for your chance to find true love.
Last week, you were stuck at another week of six beams.
Which means you still have
five more perfect matches to discover.
If all 11 have really looked at what you need
and find your perfect match,
then you will leave the house with everything.
True love, and...
750 thousand dollars!
Tricky lil bunch.
But if just one person gets it wrong,
and you're not 11 for 11,
then it's back to the house for one final shot
at working this out.
And, of course,
if you get no new matches tonight,
then it's a blackout.
And your prize money is cut again by 250 thousand dollars.
- It ain't gonna happen. - Hell no!
All right.
Before we get into it,
let's welcome back our confirmed perfect matches.
Julia Ruth and Brendan,
Brooke and Ollie,
Mijntje and Sam...
Who, as you know, for personal reasons,
left the house.
And last but not least, Taylor and Clay.
How are you enjoying life in the honeymoon suite?
I'm having, you know, such a good time.
It's really amazing,
just really get to see that personal side.
Even more than we saw in the villa.
And Brooke and Ollie,
with one more week left to go,
how are you feeling about the house
working out all these matches
and trying to get to those 11 beams?
Nervous, but I think they've got this.
Yeah, I think they have a lot of answers.
Each time you come back from the honeymoon suite,
it's something new.
Like, I'm out of the house.
Like, I have no say in what's going on.
And there's a lot of big personalities
that were in the house to lead the group.
We cannot afford to mess this up.
This week, it's the gentleman's pick.
And I hate to stress this,
but the pressure is on tonight.
And I'm sure you guys can feel it.
Yeah.
I really, really hope you've made some progress tonight.
So, positive vibes...
Deep breath.
Here we go.
First up...
Will, come and join me!
You know we had to let the birthday boy go first.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
So, I'm very curious to see,
who is your perfect match tonight?
You know, we haven't been seein' eye to eye.
There's just something that has been in the middle of us.
But you know, I do think she's a great person.
So Dew, come on down.
Hi.
Do you agree that Will is likely your match?
I see similarities in our past.
Pretty convinced that this is my match, so...
I am doing this for the team.
Will and Dew, at least they have something in common together.
So, that could be a potential match.
Will, Dew, lock in your votes.
You're locked, you can have a seat.
There's a lot of earnesty for this matchup ceremony.
I mean, we don't have fuckin' time left.
Mikey, you're up next!
Come on down.
Yeah, Mikey!
How you feelin'?
I'm feeling great tonight, actually, thank you.
So, who is your perfect match tonight?
Tonight, my perfect match is someone who is a boss.
She's a CEO, she's so fun, she's loyal.
I'm so happy to be standin' next to her.
It's gonna be Jordanne.
Jordanne, come on down!
So, how are you feeling about standing next to Mikey tonight?
We got to talking today, and...
As a hard-working creative
who's also tryin' to build his brand into more,
he's a dancer, and he wants so much more out of life.
I could very much see, like,
why you guys would have matched us up.
Mikey, Jordanne, lock in your votes.
Here's to 750 thousand dollars.
Exactly.
You're locked, you can have a seat.
Hamudi. Down you come!
Tell me, Hamudi.
Who is your perfect match tonight?
Tonight, I'm picking Danielle.
Danielle!
Hey, Danielle.
Okay, so you guys have sat together once before.
- Yeah. - Yes.
So, why are you guys convinced that you are one of those beams?
After talking today, the fun kind of
outshines how serious I am,
and I get a little misunderstood at times.
Hamudi, Danielle, lock in your votes.
You're locked, you can have a seat.
Nathan, come on down!
Have you felt the urgency to make new connections this week?
Yeah, I've been exploring something completely new.
Feel like this person's constantly, like,
been placed in a box.
And she's super talented,
and she's one of the best singers I've heard.
And that is CC.
CC, come on down!
I got to see a different side of Nathan.
He comes on really fuckin' arrogant and cocky.
He's actually a really genuine, sweet person.
Like, he's literally everything I need.
Nathan, CC, lock in your votes.
I believe she's my perfect match.
We're both very similar in a way
that we just don't care what anybody's got to say.
Eduardo, come on down!
How did you come to your decision tonight?
Tell me your thought process behind it.
The person I'm choosing tonight,
I've never been on the stage with her before.
I've seen her from afar,
haven't been able to really have a deeper connection with her.
But I see the beauty and amazingness in this woman.
And something that we both cherish
is loyalty and respect.
The girl I'm choosing tonight is Courtney.
Courtney! Come on down!
Courtney, is this new pairing a shock for you?
It was, until we, like, sat down and had conversations.
Then it started to make sense.
Eduardo, Courtney, lock in your votes.
Leo, come on down!
Oh, wow!
Leo, it has been a big week for you.
Being voted the most vulnerable in the house.
Who is your perfect match tonight?
- Roz, come here. - Roz, come on down!
Roz, you guys weren't even on the date together.
How was that time?
What he did was an act of kindness.
Yesterday, him choosin' me
and lettin' me explore with Mikey,
I kinda always knew it was one of the other.
So since it wasn't Mikey, I was like...
No one else there is my match.
This is a pairing I can get on board with,
so you guys can lock it in, Leo, Roz, lock in your votes.
You guys are locked, you can have a seat.
And finally, Aqel,
I think you know your perfect match is Anissa.
Come on up here, both of you.
Aqel and Anissa.
You guys have been a constant at these matchup ceremonies.
You've had a bond from the start,
so where's your head at now?
You know, it's only taken me nine weeks to realize,
being the lovely man that he is,
he really has shown me what I deserve.
And Aqel, I mean, you've been vocal.
But what makes sense to you about this pairing?
Everything just flowed so seamless.
I found that with her very, very early on.
This strategy is purely based on you guys
believing you were a beam this whole time.
Which is a bold statement.
- Yep, yep. - I think we got this.
We'll see what happens.
Aqel, Anissa, lock it in.
Yep.
You're locked, you can have a seat.
Yeah, boy.
We're into week nine, and we can't afford any slips.
Soon, the beams will reveal
how many couples are a perfect match,
but it will not reveal who those couples are.
Behind me are 11 beams of light.
Each beam represents a perfect match.
One beam represents one perfect match.
11 beams is 11 perfect matches,
which means that you've won true love and...
750 thousand dollars!
But...
If just one person gets it wrong,
then you're back to the house
at one last shot to get it right.
And of course,
if you get no new matches tonight,
then it's a blackout.
And your prize money is cut again by 250 thousand dollars.
It's not happenin', baby. It's not happenin'.
We've come too far.
We've only got two more of these, so...
Let's not.
Tonight, you start with four beams lit,
representing your confirmed perfect matches:
Julia Ruth and Brendan,
Brook and Ollie,
Mijntje and Sam,
and Taylor and Clay.
All right, guys.
I really hope this hard work pays off for you,
and you get the answers that you're looking for.
Oh my God!
Me likey this.
Me likey, me likey a lot.
Oh, shit.
And the number of perfect matches is...
Five beams! No blackout.
Six beams!
Seven beams!
Holy shit, we just got seven beams.
Can we get to nine?!
We've got another, we've got another.
We've got another.
Please, one more.
One more beam! One more beam!
Boom, boom!
10 and 11 just crack off, and I didn't know what to think!
I was speechless.
I love you!
I love you, too. We did it.
Brendan can teach me so much,
we're still learning together.
I've grown for myself,
I know where I need to still grow on
and work on.
But I'm really happy with the outcome that it has been.
I was not 100% confident in us.
But we pulled it off.
What a great comeback story.

Oh my God!
- He got it right the whole time! - The whole time!
I love Aqel.
We both go hard for the person that we wanna be with,
we both are very loyal, we're both very passionate.
But at the same time, we put that other person first.
I am super happy to know that Aqel was my match.
Eduardo and I were put together
because of what's important to us in life.
Although it took me ages to find him,
when I found him, I realized, "Okay, wow, yeah."
I totally understand why we've been matched together.
You guys were able to find all 11 matches
with still one week left to go.
You guys have done everything that you needed to do
to break your old dating habits.
Open your hearts,
and form meaningful connections with each other.
And I am so fucking proud of you, seriously.
You worked as a team, and it has paid off.
I've been going on this journey to be better.
I feel like having these people around
who are not judging me based off what I do,
just getting to know me genuinely
has been, like, so beautiful.
I just feel so blessed to have met these people
in the way that I have.
This experience is, like, once in a lifetime.
As your reward...
You're walking away with love...
And?
And 750 thousand dollars!
