NARRATOR: Previously...
Will you kiss me now?

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:06,920
I can kiss you,

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,040
but I'm not too sure if it's going
to make you feel something.

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,360
..Rachel's heart shattering
rejection.

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:16,960
Mwah.

6
00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:18,800
You're looking so good?
Do you like it?

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,920
Damn!

8
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,440
Alessandra's Intimacy Week task

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,600
took some couples
to a whole new level.

10
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,160
Made me feel a bit emotional.

11
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,440
The intimacy of it was
a beautiful experience.

12
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,640
Were you bullied?

13
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,400
Has a stranger ever
changed your life?

14
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,320
What's your favourite
quality about your ex?

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:40,800
While Grayson...

16
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,600
I'm really confused about how
you feel about me.

17
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:44,720
..and Rebecca...

18
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:45,960
It's just not for me.

19
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,800
..were left wanting
more from their partners.

20
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,960
He doesn't want to try
just for lip service.

21
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:56,120
..as Steve declined to participate i
Rebecca's ultimate fantasy night.

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,040
That's where I'm at.

23
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:04,440
Tonight...

24
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:05,960
It was huge for us.

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,400
..Mel and Luke's
incredible transformation.

26
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,920
I feel closer with Mel
after the task,

27
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,080
because that physical gap between us
has kind of been

28
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,080
bridged a little bit.

29
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,560
We have been progressing
in the right direction.

30
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,800
I really want to send
a clear message to Steven.

31
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,360
Rachel draws her
line in the sand.

32
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,080
A tense boy's workshop.

33
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,280
I feel like you're
skirting around my questions.

34
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:33,680
I disagree with you.

35
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,120
Alessandra calls
out Steve's behaviour.

36
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,760
The lack of respect that
you're showing me is appalling.

37
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,200
Really tread lightly.

38
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:47,080
I don't take to this well.

39
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,840
And in a shock turn of events,

40
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,880
one bride calls it quits and makes a
dramatic exit.

NARRATOR: After an unfulfilling
ultimate fantasy

44
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:17,880
for one of our couples...

45
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,640
..the night has taken
a hurtful turn.

46
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,160
Just hours after Steve
refused to take part in

47
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,280
Rebecca's ultimate fantasy
night,

48
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,600
an argument erupted between the two

49
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:46,480
when Steve accused Rebecca of not
being in the experiment for love,

50
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,160
but instead for
ulterior motives.

51
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,080
He can - I don't give a (BLEEP).

52
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,440
I feel so let down by him.

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,040
And the reality is there's no,
like, for me,

54
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,400
there's actually no
coming back now.

55
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,720
I made it very clear to Steve
that I came

56
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,160
into this experiment for one agenda,

57
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,520
and that was to find love.

58
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,240
So when he started challenging
me, saying,

59
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,120
"Oh, so you didn't
have an ulterior motive?"

60
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,880
I'm not in my 20s.
I don't need to be an influencer.

61
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,480
I don't need free skincare,
a free dress.

62
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,000
I can buy my own shit.

63
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,760
I'm sitting here in (BLEEP) tears.

64
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,080
Like, I know I haven't
been that true, authentic self,

65
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,720
because I'm so scared of
rejection,

66
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,640
and now I'm here to say,
seeing him react tonight...

67
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,080
..and doing that to me -
I'm (BLEEP) done.

68
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,440
As a new day breaks,

69
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,560
a solo Steve is still reeling

70
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,840
after last night's altercation
with Rebecca.

71
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,160
What happened last night? Um...

72
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,200
We just had an argument.
We just had a falling out, again.

73
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,360
At this point in time,

74
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,560
I don't think I'm doing a lot wrong,
to be honest.

75
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,520
I was sort of calling
out a few things,

76
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,760
and Rebecca...mm...

77
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,480
Rebecca can be quite obnoxious.

78
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,800
And I said, just calm down.

79
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,960
And unfortunately,
that didn't go down well either.

80
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,480
And Rebecca has very high emotions
and very low emotions,

81
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,160
so they're getting
a bit tricky to deal with.

82
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:55,200
And, you know, it's becoming
a daily occurrence

83
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,680
and I'm probably a little bit
tired from it.

84
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,800
Each and every day it seems
Rebecca's struggling,

85
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,680
and now I'm
struggling with Rebecca.

86
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,720
Rebecca's just highly
emotional and loud and rude

87
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:11,120
and quite crude as well.

88
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,400
And the emotions from
Rebecca are so high and low.

89
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:15,840
It's worn me down.

90
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:18,520
It's just been a lot.

91
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Rebecca's just a lot in general.

92
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:22,800
It's just...

93
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,600
Yeah, it's, uh, it's too much for me
at the moment.

94
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,640
Before this happened last night
I went into

95
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,200
intimacy week thinking
I'll try to work through it,

96
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,520
but I've definitely withdrawn
again.

97
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,280
So what do you do with
that going into this?

98
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,800
Yeah, it's an interesting
intimacy workshop today, mm.

99
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,120
For the rest of our couples,

100
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,400
Intimacy Week is in full swing
and already working wonders,

101
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,040
after Alessandra challenged
the brides

102
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,520
to create their ultimate fantasy
nights.

103
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,320
The Ultimate Fantasy Night

104
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,360
was designed to help our brides
feel empowered

105
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,080
and show their partner what it is
they desire in a relationship

106
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,080
in order to
form a stronger connection.

107
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,920
I will also hold a men's workshop.
OK.

108
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,280
So I can hear if the husbands rose
to the occasion

109
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,280
and this year I'll be setting them
a task of their own.

110
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,520
This morning, the couples are
still basking in the afterglow

111
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,440
of last night's fantasies.

112
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,080
I don't know what else
Alessandra wants from me.

113
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,480
I got my ultimate
fantasy,

114
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,520
home cooked meal,
and a smoking hot wife.

115
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:41,680
(LAUGHTER)

116
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,080
Before the grooms depart for their
turn at Alessandra's workshop.

117
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,320
How are you feeling today?
You got your workshop?

118
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,360
I know.

119
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,720
I don't know what
the guys will been doing

120
00:06:50,840 --> 00:06:52,320
because they don't dress in
lingerie.

121
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,480
I felt good last night.
We had a laugh.

122
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:55,560
We had a giggle.

123
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,640
I must confess, I've never
given a girl a foot rub before.

124
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,400
Feel nice?

125
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,120
It felt different not being in
control

126
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,200
because I'm just not used to being
dominated.

127
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,280
Get in, get in.

128
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,320
But if she likes it,
I'm happy to compromise.

129
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:11,880
You know, happy wife,
happy life, they say.

130
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,920
Despite currently living
in separate apartments

131
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,160
after a rocky start to
their relationship,

132
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,360
for Mel and Luke,

133
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,840
Intimacy Week seems to have
brought about a turning point.

134
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,160
Hello.
How are you going?

135
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,480
Come in.
Thank you. How'd you sleep?

136
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,960
Good, how about you?
Really good.

137
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,440
The mood between Luke
and I is so much better.

138
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,360
Holey Moley was good.
Yeah.

139
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,400
This time last week,
when we were looking at each other,

140
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,000
being like, I can't even look
at you in the eyes.

141
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,920
It was unfortunate that I won.
Yeah.

142
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,520
And it was even
more unfortunate that

143
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,280
I was such a sore loser.

144
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,600
Now we're actually talking
to each other

145
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,040
like we're actual human beings that
like each other.

146
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,320
Getting ready for the boys?
Yeah.

147
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,880
Getting ready for boys day.
Nice fit.

148
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,160
Do you reckon?
Yeah.

149
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,240
Vibes between me
and Mel are positive.

150
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:00,560
Yeah.

151
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,800
It definitely feels a lot
more chill around Mel now.

152
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,880
Like, I feel like for the first
time that I'm getting Mel,

153
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,120
like, the proper Mel.

154
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,040
Oh, my god.

155
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,120
Obviously, we're still
finding our feet with everything,

156
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,000
but we're keeping it pretty light,
and it's been -

157
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,200
yeah, it's been nice.

158
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,280
I think we go back there.

159
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:16,560
Same.
Yeah.

160
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Last night could have been
our cutest moment, to be fair.

161
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,000
It was the cutest
moment ever.

162
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,960
Last night was the best night
in the whole experiment for me.

163
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,800
You OK, babe?

164
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,280
It's actually quite relaxing.

165
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,400
I like it.
Yeah?

166
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,480
It was just so romantic
without being overtly sexual

167
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,880
and it just worked for us.

168
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,960
It was incredible.

169
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,000
It was so good.

170
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,320
I feel like a fantasy night,

171
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,040
you could have done
so much cliche shit.

172
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,240
I couldn't bring out
the whips and chains, babes.

173
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:55,880
Save that for later.

174
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,000
But what I'm saying is that
it was actually something

175
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,280
I've never done before.

176
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,360
I actually enjoyed it.
Absolutely.

177
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:02,640
And you didn't -

178
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,720
you took it seriously,
which I appreciate.

179
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,440
The experts actually said
that I needed to be more vulnerable.

180
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:12,920
And the task actually
allowed me to do that.

181
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,240
Like, I was going to write
like,

182
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,800
a joke word on her
or just take the piss.

183
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,800
But I didn't because I didn't
want to ruin her night.

184
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,440
Jokes might get out of jail
free card.

185
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:23,800
Yeah, it's a defence
mechanism at times.

186
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:28,360
But yesterday, you didn't...
you didn't joke around.

187
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,480
You took it seriously,
and I appreciate it very much.

188
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,080
No worries.

189
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,720
Every day was sort of seeing
different parts

190
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,640
of each other and progressing
a little bit more every day.

191
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,600
Uh, yeah, it was good.

192
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,360
Yeah, I enjoyed the night.

Me and Beck are
cruising along nicely.

194
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,720
We are intimate again.

195
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,520
So just, um, just relax
this morning, you know?

well and truly fulfilled last night

00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,240
it was a different story for Rachel,

199
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,520
who this morning is waking up in a
separate apartment,

200
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,600
hurt and confused.

201
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,040
Last night, Steven
flat out rejected me.

00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,640

I can kiss you.

205
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,560
But I'm not too sure if it's going
to make you feel something.

210
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,440
I left really upset.
I was absolutely devastated.

211
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,120
But this morning,
after reflecting on it

212
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,800
I'm kind of through
the sad part of it,

213
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,240
and I'm getting into
the anger of it,

214
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,120
because I am so confused.

00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:16,200
At the commitment ceremony,
Steven led myself,

216

the experts and this
entire group to believe

217
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:21,040
that he felt something for me.

218
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,240
And that's why he put stay.

219
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,640
And now you're telling me that
he doesn't feel something?

220

So this morning,

222
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,280
I really want to send a clear
message to Steven.

223
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,960
I want to let him know how
much I have actually done

224
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,800
and how much I've tried.

225
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,960
That's why I will not be moving
back into the apartment.

226
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,920
I will be staying put,
but on top of that,

Yeah, um, OK.

I'm guessing doesn't want
to see me at the moment.

it's not a good sign.

night,

00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,840

my heart turned to ice.

00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,320
However, when it comes to intimacy,

243
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,360
this is something that
cannot be forced.

244
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,440
It wasn't right to go in for
the kiss and be fake about it.

245
00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:45,560
But now she's so angry

Like I can't say that - she's angry.

So maybe the best time is
just to give her a bit of space.

251

Because I feel like the energy,
the body language,

out for a bit,

00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,440
so you've got a bit of time
to do what you need to do?

Yeah.

304

You know, with the slip ups
and things, it's just...

305
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,280
it's a lot to deal with.
Yeah.

00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,440

and gone,

in the right place."

00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,440
Bienvenidos, Caballeros!
Have a seat.

349
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,600
Thank you.
Hello.

350
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,000
I designed this exercise to help
empower the women of the experiment.

351
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:51,640
And it was my hope that
their husbands would be enthusiastic

352
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,440
about fulfilling
their partner's desires.

353
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,160
How's everybody doing?

354
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,440
All the better for
seeing you and being here.

355
00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,560
That's very good.

356
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:04,040
Um, as you all well know,
Intimacy Week is well underway, huh?

357
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,200
Oh, yeah. Big time, big time.
Big time.

358
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,160
I'm sure some of you
have reaped the benefits

359
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,760
of the Women's Workshop yesterday.

360
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,160
I had a good time.
You had a good time.

361
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,240
Alissa's ultimate fantasy
was my ultimate fantasy.

362
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:19,800
Ooh.
I'm just gonna be straight up.

363
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:20,960
Love it.

364
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,040
It was awesome.

365
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,240
Like, she was getting to
know me,

366
00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:26,640
and we really, really get along.

367
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,520
It's exciting stuff.

368
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,520
But I am very curious to
see how everybody went.

369
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,200
So who's gonna start it off?

370
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,520
Tell me a good experience.

371
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,360
I had a good experience.
You had a good experience, Danny.

372
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,440
Me and Bec done, like,

373
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,040
a blindfolded painting session,
so to speak.

374
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,880
It was actually pretty fun.

375
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,960
Took turns, and so we
painted words on each other.

376
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,960
Like what represent
our relationship?

377
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,120
Afterwards, I felt emotional.

378
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,560
I felt like I wanted to cry.

379
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,400
I don't even know why.

380
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,200
I just felt like we got closer.

381
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,360
There's a little cracking of
the hard shell going on there.

382
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:05,720
Mm.

383
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,040
Hearing what Danny had to say today,
you know, it was just great.

384
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,120
I think by leaning into
the unknown,

385
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,600
leaning into the uncomfortable and
taking the task seriously,

386
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,200
Danny actually is trying,
and it seems to be working for him.

387
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,040
I did want to, like,
crack a joke or whatever,

388
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,480
but I pulled myself back in
and I was like,

389
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,760
"Keep it serious, because this is
her night and it's her fantasy,"

390
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,040
and I didn't want to ruin it.

391
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,400
I think those are pretty
big, solid steps

392
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,520
in the right direction from you.
Thank you.

393
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,080
It makes me
personally feel very proud.

394
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,280
Thanks very much.

395
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,520
Love.

396
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,080
Very good, very good. Thank you.

397
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,880
Thanks.
Luke.

398
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:40,920
Yes.

399
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,600
You're smiling today,
which makes me so happy.

400
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,640
Yeah, I'm starting
to feel myself again.

401
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,600
How has it been since the
commitment ceremony?

402
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,400
Really good.
Yesterday we went on a date.

403
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,400
It was nice, we were like,
having a bit of banter,

404
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:55,560
a few jokes.

405
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,240
And yeah, I feel like we've been
looking at

406
00:19:58,360 --> 00:20:00,440
each other a lot more
than we ever have.

407
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,040
So that looking at each other,

408
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,320
was it flirty or how would you
describe?

409
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,240
Not like massively flirty yet.
I like the yet.

410
00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:12,360
Yeah the yet the yet
gives me a lot of hope.

411
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,320
Mr Grayson, tell us about
Julia's ultimate fantasy night

412
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,920
and how that played
out for you guys.

413
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,520
Yeah.

414
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,120
Obviously you're not
happy with what I've...

415
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,520
Absolutely not.
OK, well, this is a problem.

416
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,960
Jules, I feel at this point
that I'm wasting my time.

417
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,000
Oh.
Absolutely.

418
00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:32,960
Wasting my time.
Yeah.

419
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,920
Intimacy to me is like,
you know, chemistry,

420
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,840
romance, sexual stuff.

421
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,440
Jules definition of getting intimate
is

422
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,800
understanding someone on a on a
deeper level.

423
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,720
So she come up with a series
of questions

424
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,880
that she felt would
strengthen that or...

425
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,680
Well, what kind of
questions were they?

426
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,920
Sexy questions?
Were there enticing questions?

427
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,560
Nah.

428
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,320
At school were you bullied?

429
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,400
I...

430
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,800
Unfortunately, there was
zero sexiness or sauciness.

431
00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:15,680
OK.

432
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,400
Look, the questions that
I was dealing with are,

433
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,040
you know, things like what
is my fondest memory on

434
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:22,360
the football field? You know?

435
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,720
Just like life questions?
Yeah, yeah.

436
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,920
Whoa, whoa, I was really
expecting something different.

437
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,880
Yeah, I'm just -
I mean, ultimate fantasy.

438
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,400
Like, that's the definition
of the task.

439
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:36,920
And to be asking me what

440
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,720
my favourite traits were in my
ex-partner,

441
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,320
and what I've learned in my
personal development,

442
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:42,640
like that, come on.

443
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,880
Honestly, at this point,
I feel like I'm wasting my time.

444
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:54,800
I feel, um, powerless over my
position in this relationship.

445
00:21:55,680 --> 00:22:00,120
Like, I don't have any
form of say anymore.

446
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,880
And I don't know whether that's
me being weak as a man,

447
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,240
letting her dictate that from the
start.

448
00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:09,000
And I'm quite disappointed
in myself for that,

449
00:22:09,120 --> 00:22:11,760
because I feel like I've
allowed the relationship

450
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,040
to get to this point.

451
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,800
Yeah, I feel like I've
just been shoved away.

452
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,720
If she weren't
shoving you away

453
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,880
would you still want
to get close to her?

454
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,680
Absolutely.
I find her really attractive.

455
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,280
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fully committed.

456
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,600
I want this to work.

457
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,600
I've been super into Jules,
and it'll feel really nice

458
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,720
if Jules is willing to reciprocate,
you know,

459
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,640
because at the moment, I really
don't know where I stand with her.

460
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,720
Yeah, I just need brutal
honesty from Julia.

461
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,800
Yeah.

462
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,160
Steven.

463
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:49,840
(SIGHS) Excuse me.

464
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,840
My heart's, like,
going a million miles an hour.

465
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,080
OK.

466
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,720
Um...

467
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,680
How was Rachel's
ultimate fantasy night?

468
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,400
Yeah, because it obviously
didn't go too well.

469
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,800
I walked into the room
and Rachel was standing there

470
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:15,560
with a blindfold on and holding
sort of like an A3,

471
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,440
and it just said some words on
there.

472
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,200
And the questions started
off quite light, you know.

473
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,720
What do you like about
me and stuff like that?

474
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,840
But the next card said,

475
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,920
Could you give me a kiss that feels
like something.

476
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,920
Felt like at that time I had
three decisions to make.

477
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:40,800
Either give her a kiss and she
feels like it's empty.

478
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,200
Give her a kiss. Get through it.

479
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,400
In other words, fake it and give
Rachel the wrong impressions.

480
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,240
And she comes out of this
going,

481
00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:51,000
"Oh,
I felt a romantic connection there."

482
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:53,960
And the third decision was

483
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,680
that I'd tell her how I feel right
there and then.

484
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,600
And unfortunately,
I did take the hardest option

485
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,080
and said to her,
"I can give you a kiss,

486
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,320
but I don't know if there's going to
be any passion behind it."

487
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,880
How did she take it?
Not good.

488
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,320
It was hard to watch.

489
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,200
Men used to die in
trenches and fight wars.

490
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,040
And now he's too scared to even
just give his missus a kiss.

491
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,320
Like, just give her a kiss,
for (BLEEP) sake.

492
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,880
It's not really
that hard, is it?

493
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,680
And see where it
goes from there.

494
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,440
I reckon Steven's in the wrong.

495
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,640
Like he's not even
giving it a shot.

496
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,400
So why did you say stay?
Why did you say that?

497
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,160
Well, I chose to stay
because I didn't want to quit

498
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,080
just because I'm not there yet.

499
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,800
OK. Do you think you're
ever going to get there?

500
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,040
Well, I feel like I've screwed up
pretty bad now.

501
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,760
That's not my question.

502
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,840
I was hoping -
I was hopeful, yeah.

503
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,080
I don't know,
I think maybe hopeful

504
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,680
would have been a little bit of
leaning into

505
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,120
that particular situation.

506
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,440
Something like a kiss.

507
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:09,000
It's not the biggest thing,
but it can be something to clarify,

508
00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:12,960
especially when there's
been a lot of confusion.

509
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:20,360
I feel like I'm in
a similar boat as Rachel.

510
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,960
You know, it takes a lot of
emotional energy,

511
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,000
as you're all aware,
to be here,

512
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:29,280
and for the other person not to be
reciprocating

513
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,760
in effort and openness,
it sucks, man.

514
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,640
Like it sucks, you know? Um...

515
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,320
You know? So, I'm, uh...

516
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,080
You gotta dive in, man, like...

517
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,920
Rachel's craving
connection and intimacy.

518
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:54,400
And Stevens is, like,
tippy toeing pussyfooting around it.

519
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,120
That's what I see.

520
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,560
And, you know, I feel like I'm
getting at the same from Jules.

521
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,560
And that's sort of how I'm starting
to get to that point of like,

522
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:06,240
you're just stringing me along.

523
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,080
Chris.

524
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,600
I see you far, far away.

525
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,600
What's going on?
Um. It's so funny.

526
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,880
I've never had such
an experience with someone

527
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,280
where we get along in so many
different ways,

528
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,280
and we're honestly sharing, like,
a lot of intimacy

529
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:29,680
in where we were just cuddling
and able

530
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,160
to bathe in each other's company.

531
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,160
But at the same time,
I've got this roadblock.

532
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,600
Do you think she's still
struggling with the audition video

533
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,040
and her perception of that?

534
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,280
It's definitely in mind.

535
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,360
We've had a conversation
multiple times about how

536
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,440
she wanted to come in here
and have someone that was settled,

537
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,040
and she didn't
need to hold their hand

538
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,240
and guide them through like,
situations like that video.

539
00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:54,040
Obviously I'm a little bit upset
because I want someone,

540
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,920
I want to give the same emotion
and get it back.

541
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,040
Um, but in my mind, like,

542
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,360
logic goes out the window when I
deal with my emotions.

543
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,520
Like I just go all in.

544
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,320
So I would literally stay
here till the end of the experiment,

545
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,840
even if I was upset,
just to keep trying.

546
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,640
There's always going to be something
or a situation

547
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,080
that you might not like.

548
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,000
It doesn't mean that you
give up necessarily,

549
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:20,320
but it's also not about
just staying there forever,

550
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,160
taking her rejection of you.

551
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,600
So you have to find that balance
where that line is for you.

552
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:27,720
I don't know,

553
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,120
I feel like this is a very unique
situation that I'm in.

554
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:31,560
Obviously, I'm just going to
keep doing what I'm doing.

555
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,040
I just want to try and show
Brook and hopefully change her mind

556
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,920
day by day that, you know,
that we're good together.

557
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,440
And obviously I want
to make things work.

558
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,720
Coming up...
(SCOFFS)

559
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,240
..Steve's behaviour...

560
00:27:46,360 --> 00:27:48,440
Honestly, the lack of respect that
you're showing me...

561
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,080
OK.
..is appalling.

562
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,560
..sends shockwaves
through the experiment.

563
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,760
He's the oldest man
in the room as well.

564
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,240
And he's acting like a child.

565
00:27:58,360 --> 00:28:03,000
And later, Alessandra's task
brings Mel and Luke closer.

566
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,880
And one of the brides
has packed her bags

567
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,520
and left the apartments.

568
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,760
# #

569
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,440
OK, so, Steve...
Yes.

570
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,240
..how was Rebecca's ultimate
fantasy night for the two of you?

571
00:28:34,360 --> 00:28:37,280
Rebecca's ultimate fantasy.

572
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,760
Um, Rebecca did visit a sex shop
and bought a couple of outfits.

573
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,120
Ooh.

574
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,320
Eventually didn't put them on.
OK.

575
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,480
Out of respect for me.

576
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,760
She chose to not dress up
and make me uncomfortable.

577
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:57,920
For me,
that sounds like bullshit.

578
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,880
I had nothing but respect,

579
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,520
because Rebecca didn't come in
dressed up already.

580
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,200
Because I would have
found that uncomfortable.

581
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,040
So it actually bonded us.

582
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,320
You've actually bonded them.

583
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,840
(INHALES)
I don't know, to me, it's just...

584
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,080
It just doesn't make sense.

585
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,120
Gia was with Rebecca and hearing
Rebecca's perspective,

586
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,320
she's so into him,
she went to a sex shop last night.

587
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,280
She wanted to get her
ultimate fantasy done, and...

588
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,000
She brought us
closer by not doing that.

589
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,800
I think Steve's a bit full of shit.

590
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,760
That's what I'm confused because
Gia was with her last night

591
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,840
at the sex shop,
and she was like saying,

592
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,040
"I can't wait to dress up,
do all these naughty things."

593
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,840
But then apparently she gets in.
She doesn't want to do it.

594
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,320
That's the only thing
I'm confused about.

595
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,160
It's very confusing.

596
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,600
The overall story is we
had ultimate intimacy last night,

597
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,640
so your partner should
be able to have a choice

598
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,400
to bring you guys closer.
Which she did.

599
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:56,640
Right, she didn't.

600
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,160
She had a choice.
Why didn't she have a choice?

601
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,480
I didn't say, don't do it.

602
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,800
I just said it will make me very
uncomfortable if that happens.

603
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,240
I'm quite shocked.

604
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:07,880
*The whole point of last night

605
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,120
was for the woman to have her
ultimate fantasy.

606
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,840
And I feel like Steve
really failed on that.

607
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,120
And I feel like Steve
just doesn't care.

608
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,320
He just I think he's only
thinking about himself.

609
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,120
I'm a little bit
more conservative.

610
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:25,080
And I wouldn't want to, uh,
to possibly put myself in

611
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,680
a position like that on,
you know,

612
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,160
in front of many people.

613
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,560
After the cameras left...
Yes.

614
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,240
..was her ultimate fantasy then

615
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,560
realised just between the
two of you.

616
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:40,400
Um, we talked it through,
but then we had a falling out

617
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:44,520
after that and we didn't stay in
the same room last night, so...

618
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,800
Oh. What happened?

619
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,440
Um, Rebecca was saying that

620
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,320
the only reason she is here
was to find love.

621
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,400
And I kind of called her
out on that,

622
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,080
because I'm sure there's other
reasons Rebecca's here also.

623
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,160
She's telling you that
the only reason

624
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:03,840
she came here was to find love.

625
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,440
And I am sure of that because I had
various conversations with Rebecca

626
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,200
prior to her being officially a part
of the experiment.

627
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,120
But I'm sure people don't
say

628
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,320
there's other reasons in their
audition tape.

629
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,040
So on her ultimate Fantasy Night,

630
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,200
she doesn't get to act out her
fantasy,

631
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:27,600
and got none of the feeling desire,

632
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,320
but then got a little
judgement on why she's here.

633
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,800
It doesn't sound very good for
Rebecca.

634
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,160
From what I'm hearing.
It wasn't good for either one of us.

635
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,520
Yes, but it was her night,

636
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,160
so I'm concerned about
how good it was for her.

637
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,120
I didn't ask for her to please me.
So this was her night.

638
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:43,440
No, but you did stay here,

639
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,480
and say you wanted
to work on the relationship.

640
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,280
Yeah.

641
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,080
And when presented with
the opportunity to

642
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,720
help her understand that she is
somebody

643
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,840
that you are attracted to,
like you have stated in the past.

644
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,440
I said I could be
attracted to Rebecca, yeah.

645
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,480
You said you found
her very attractive.

646
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,120
As a person, yeah, absolutely.

647
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,200
There's an internal
attractiveness

648
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,160
and there's an external, so...

649
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:06,960
So which one are you attracted to?

650
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:09,960
Um...

651
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,120
Um...

652
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,680
Externally, Rebecca
is a beautiful woman.

653
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,240
Um, there's parts of
Rebecca's personality

654
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:20,720
which are beautiful as well.

655
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,760
Externally, she's beautiful,
internally, parts.

656
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,280
Is that your answer?

657
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,960
Internally, there's
personality traits

658
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:30,480
which I find adorable, yeah.

659
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,680
A bit of a bullshit comment,
to be honest.

660
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,880
Like, I feel like Steve's
flirting around

661
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,840
instead of just saying the straight
answer.

662
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,840
I feel like he's not being 100% open
with Alessandra or Rebecca,

663
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,080
but I don't think he's telling her,

664
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,040
I think he's flirting,
fluffing around

665
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,640
with all these other things.

666
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,200
He was being pretty combative.

667
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,160
I feel like you're skirting around
my questions...

668
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,800
No, not at all.
..trying to sound good...

669
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,520
I'm trying to sound good?
..and I don't really - mm!

670
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:56,600
Like that.

671
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,600
OK, well, I mean,
I disagree with you.

672
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,560
Ask me a question,
I'll give you a genuine answer.

673
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,240
I'm not waiting for anybody
to tell me what to say.

674
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:16,840
OK.

675
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,600
Honestly, the lack of respect
that you're showing me as somebody

676
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,160
who's here to help guide you...

677
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,440
OK.
..is appalling.

678
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,440
Really tread lightly.

679
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,520
I don't take to this well.

680
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,760
I wasn't referring to...
(STAMMERS)

681
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,280
Honestly, who else
would you be referring to?

682
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,200
It's so absurd.
Yeah.

683
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,600
OK.

684
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,200
I feel like a 50 year
old man should know better

685
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:43,520
and how to speak to a woman.

686
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,160
He should be apologising to
Alessandra the way he spoke to her.

687
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,240
Again, Steve, do not even.

688
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,560
(LAUGHS)

689
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,000
Again, Steve, really tread lightly.

690
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,080
I don't take to this well.

691
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,000
Well, I'd rather
not say any more.

692
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:15,800
I think that was misinterpreted.

693
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,000
So I withdraw when I hear things
like that,

694
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,640
because then I just -
I'd rather not continue.

695
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,840
It is really disappointing
that you're not realising

696
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,040
the amount of compatibility that
there is between you and Rebecca,

697
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,040
and the real possibility for
something fabulous to grow here.

698
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,520
OK.

699
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,840
I didn't take a lot of it,
to be honest.

700
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,800
Yeah, I find there was a lot
of contradiction in the room.

701
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,080
Um, so I listened.

702
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,880
Um, I heard and as I said,

703
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,440
I didn't really take anything from
it, to be honest.

704
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,880
I think Steve had a complete
lack of respect towards Alessandra,

705
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,920
didn't listen to
what she had to say,

706
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,200
and that obviously shows
his intentions

707
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,760
of what he's done with Rebecca on
her ultimate fantasy night.

708
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,720
It gives you an ultimate reflection.

709
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,640
Doesn't show any respect
or any remorse.

710
00:35:17,720 --> 00:35:18,840
NARRATOR: At the apartments,

711
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,240
the grooms are back
from the intimacy workshop.

712
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,120
Your back.

713
00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:28,120
I missed you.
I missed you.

714
00:35:28,240 --> 00:35:30,320
Oh, I got us a nice
bottle of wine.

715
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:31,520
OK. Love it.

716
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,440
Mm.

717
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,600
The brides are eager to
hear what advice

718
00:35:37,720 --> 00:35:39,960
Alessandra had for their husbands.

719
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,600
OK, so tell me, how was it?

720
00:35:41,720 --> 00:35:43,520
Um...

721
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,720
However, the men are still reeling

722
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,160
after witnessing one groom's
behaviour.

723
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,760
I was pretty pissed off.
What do you mean?

724
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,800
Steve was (BLEEP) rude.

725
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,440
Steve ended up like
basically having an argument

726
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,160
with Alessandra.

727
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,000
He was being completely
disrespectful towards Alessandra.

728
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,120
He was disrespecting -

729
00:36:03,240 --> 00:36:04,760
Wait. What?
Yeah.

730
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,040
He was like, you've
got an earpiece in.

731
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,200
It's like,
what are you talking about?

732
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:10,440
That's not on.

733
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,560
He was just being (BLEEP) rude,
pretty much.

734
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,160
Steve, being rude to
Alessandra doesn't shock me,

735
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,320
because he is the kind of man
that talks over women

736
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,680
and likes to control situations.

737
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,440
And the minute he's not in control,
he loses it.

738
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:24,560
That's not OK.

739
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,680
He's the oldest man
in the room as well.

740
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,400
And he's acting like a child.

741
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,160
But there's more.

742
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,280
When you and Rebecca
got all those outfits.

743
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,800
Like, what was her
intention behind that?

744
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,320
She wanted to put them
on and be like, hey, Steve,

745
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:38,680
like, this is me.

746
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,360
But she said to me,

747
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,120
"If he's weird
when I get in there,

748
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:44,360
and I say, I've been shopping
and I bought this,

749
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,080
I'm not gonna put myself out
there like that."

750
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,160
Did she dress up?
No.

751
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,200
(BLEEP) you, Steven, are you joking?

752
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,280
Obviously, she felt
completely uncomfortable.

753
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,680
That's (BLEEP).
He's literally dulling her...

754
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,000
her shine every day.

755
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,520
Rebecca was so excited yesterday.

756
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,720
She was full of life.
She was confident.

757
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,280
She was feeling hot.

758
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,000
She got these little outfits.
She was giggling.

759
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,040
It was a good time.

760
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,680
And then for her
to have gone home,

761
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,080
and she sounds like she
didn't put any of them on.

762
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:13,800
It's crazy to me.

763
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:15,440
But he also said that,
well,

764
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,200
Rebecca's not even there
just for love.

765
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:20,320
She's there for other reasons.
Rebecca?

766
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,000
Yeah.
Are you serious?

767
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:23,400
Yeah.

768
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:24,960
Rebecca is 100% here
for the right reasons.

769
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,200
She only wants love.

770
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,720
She has so much love to give.

771
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:33,040
And I think for him to just
treat her like that

772
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,720
and not make her feel her best self
is really not OK.

773
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:37,800
I can't believe it.

774
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,640
I'm actually going to have words
with him at the dinner party,

775
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,360
because that's not OK.

776
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,000
After some terse words from
Alessandra,

777
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,680
a defiant Steve has
arrived home where,

778
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,360
after their night apart,
Rebecca has moved back in,

779
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,680
hoping he's had time to reflect on
last night's argument.

780
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,080
Oh.

781
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:08,880
Um, you know, we sort of
had a little dust up,

782
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,120
and it just feels like we're back
to scratch again.

783
00:38:11,240 --> 00:38:12,720
Yeah.

784
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,080
Um, I'm not sure the way forward.

785
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,760
So, yeah, it's just, um,

786
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,280
I have no other words.

787
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,840
I just feel like that, um,
we're on completely different pages.

788
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,560
Even in that whole intimacy
challenge,

789
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:29,760
like I respected you.

790
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,280
I've been going at your speed
pretty much.

791
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,680
I feel like I'm giving a lot
more into it than you are.

792
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,840
I think that's unfair.

793
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,240
Apart from the intimacy thing,

794
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,080
not wanting to do anything
that I consider

795
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,160
personally not TV-worthy.
Yep, yep.

796
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,520
OK? I find it something
I wouldn't do in real life,

797
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:49,720
let alone on TV.

798
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,960
We're on Married At First Sight
to be out of our comfort zone?

799
00:38:54,240 --> 00:38:56,600
I'm saying,
but intimacy is not about sex.

800
00:38:56,720 --> 00:38:59,160
And now you're saying it's...
I'm not saying it's about sex.

801
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:00,640
You just said
it's Sex At First Sight.

802
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:05,760
I'm saying I'm not about
to put on a show making it

803
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,680
look like a soft porn or
something like that.

804
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,400
It's actually quite laughable.

805
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,640
Anyway, yeah, I just get
the feeling that you're not all in

806
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:17,640
to make yourself vulnerable,
to do it with me.

807
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,560
And for me, I haven't been my
true, authentic self.

808
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,200
OK.

809
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,520
And I'm sick of being half
of who I am,

810
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,880
because I'm so fearful that I'm
going to be too much for you.

811
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,240
So chances are
you are too much for me.

812
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,880
Yes, I agree.
I think we're on the same page.

813
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,000
Yeah.

814
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,200
Yeah, OK.

815
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,640
So, you know, end of story,
isn't it?

816
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,920
I'm not going to all of a sudden
turn this around and go,

817
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,480
"Hey, let's try again."

818
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,560
You know what, Steve?
I wouldn't expect you to.

819
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,520
I think that you're more concerned
about how you're going to look.

820
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:50,640
Where I don't care.

821
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,000
I don't mind how people want
to perceive me or judge me.

822
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,880
The only thing I've always
worried about is

823
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,600
I think I'm a kind,
respectful person.

824
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,040
So, yeah, alright?

825
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,480
So I'll get some things,
and then they'll let me know,

826
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:07,800
I guess, where I'm staying.

827
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,440
And I'll get some dinner. I'll...
Yeah.

828
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,560
You know, I think I tried anyway,
so...

829
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,280
Yeah.

830
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,360
Let's just leave it at that.

831
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,560
OK.

832
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,200
What a stand-up guy.

833
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,280
He didn't even want to try.

834
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:23,960
He doesn't want to try.

835
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,080
And he will not take
accountability for his actions.

836
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:30,720
He does not care.

837
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,120
He doesn't care.

838
00:40:33,240 --> 00:40:37,760
OK, and I'm sorry it hasn't worked
out the way you maybe wanted it to,

839
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,400
but I've been kind, I've been nice,
and I've been there for you.

840
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,080
There you go "the way you
wanted it to work out."

841
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:45,880
No, OK, the way we want to...

842
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,360
We came in here to actually make a
relationship.

843
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,000
I'm trying to...
Yeah, Steve.

844
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:50,880
At least you get
to be yourself now, yeah?

845
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,800
And you can
give them the TV gold

846
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,640
that you've been holding back on,
yeah?

847
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:55,840
So, go for it.

848
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:00,360
Joke.

849
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:01,800
"I'm a nice guy, I'm kind."

850
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:03,320
"I'm here for the right reasons."

851
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,360
No, you're not, Steve.

852
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,560
He honestly thinks, hand on heart,

853
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,480
that he's tried in this experiment,
which is not the case.

854
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:24,520
He would have to be the weakest man
I've ever met in my entire life.

855
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,040
If he wasn't ready he should never,
ever have joined the experiment.

856
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,080
He simply was not ready for it.

857
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:32,480
He's tried.

858
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,400
Steve was not vulnerable
at all in this experiment.

859
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,080
I actually have no words.
Sorry, guys.

860
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,200
I'm just like, I'm (BLEEP) ropeable.

861
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,240
If he came to this experiment
with, um,

862
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:48,200
hope of meeting a potential person
at the end of it or whatever,

863
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:49,880
he would have come back in today,

864
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,920
he would have swallowed his pride
and his ego,

865
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,200
he would have taken
accountability for his actions,

866
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,440
and he'd done some self-reflection
and owned his shit.

867
00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,080
Instead, he did zero.

868
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,080
And then the cop out.
Am I a lot for him?

869
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,960
Well, no.
The reality is I'm just enough.

870
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:07,840
And he's not enough for me.

871
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:10,800
Coming up...

872
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,240
Careful, might poke your eye out.

873
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,520
Alessandra sets
the groom's a secret mission.

874
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,080
What is David doing?

875
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,040
Damn, boy.

876
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,000
So this is yours
if you want it.

877
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,360
But will all the wives be
keen on their covert plans?

878
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:25,360
No, I don't want to.

879
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,960

880
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,120
NARRATOR: Intimacy week has begun
in earnest for our grooms,

881
00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:41,520
with Alessandra having
assigned them covert tasks

882
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:43,360
to perform for their wives.

883
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:46,880
After the Men's Intimacy
workshop,

884
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:51,520
I challenged the grooms to perform
a covert task for their wives,

885
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,880
secretly displaying care,
compassion, and attraction

886
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,720
by doing something small yet special
for their partner.

887
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,080
After the workshop with
Alessandra today,

888
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,120
my plan is to pull all the stops out
of the bag tonight

889
00:43:09,240 --> 00:43:12,160
and treat my wife like the queen she
is.

890
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,840
Oh, hey, gorgeous, how are you?
Hello.

891
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,040
Good, how are you?
It feels like forever.

892
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,320
I know Alissa loves a clean
apartment,

893
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,640
so I'm gonna offer my cleaning
services.

894
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,800
How you been doing?
Yeah, it was good. Just chill -

895
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:27,800
Pretty chill.
Just chilling.

896
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,000
But you know we're not
going to just find this,

897
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:31,440
you know on Google search.

898
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,480
This is an exclusive service.

899
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,760
And my wife is one lucky lady.

900
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,760
I'm gonna have to
tidy up this fridge.

901
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,360
Mm?
It's just looking a bit messy.

902
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:43,640
What?

903
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,440
Careful, might poke your eye out.

904
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,440
(GIGGLES)
What are you doing?

905
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:53,640
What is David doing?

906
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,000
Oh, my god, this is a lot.

907
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,680
Damn, boy.

908
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,480
I got my, uh, baby making gown,

909
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,960
and now I'm gonna clean the hell out
of our apartment.

910
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:05,840
You know, if this doesn't
get her tingling,

911
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,400
I don't know what will.

912
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,600
Why don't you clean to
me like this every day?

913
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,240
He's thick.
"He's thick."

914
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,280
That thick ass.

915
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:19,960
Wow.

916
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,120
No dust is going
to be left behind.

917
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,640
Oh, why did you know
this is my fantasy?

918
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:31,920
I just know you, babe.

919
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:33,520
And cleans.
I know how to get you turned on.

920
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,080
Can you do the lampshade,
please, as well?

921
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:36,280
Absolutely.

922
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:37,760
Do you want it harder?
Faster? Or slower?

923
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,920
Slower, just...
oh, yeah, that's way better.

924
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,080
Acts of service.
That's a turn on for me

925
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,960
When men do things that help you,
that's a turn on.

926
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,920
So if you're going to do those
things, I'll serve you.

927
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:53,440
I'll serve you later.

928
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:54,560
Gorgeous.

929
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,040
Do you like the view from behind
or...?

930
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,120
Yeah, it's a juicy booty.

931
00:44:58,240 --> 00:44:59,320
It's just so hot.

932
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:00,760
Can I just touch them?

933
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,680
You can touch them.
Yeah, they're really, really nice.

934
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,320
I think the pecs on it,

935
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,240
like he's got bigger tits than me,
honestly.

936
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,360
Yeah.
These are cleaning man's pecs.

937
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,400
Can you make them dance for me?

938
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,360
That's it. That's my boy.

939
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,560
(LAUGHTER)

940
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,960
I always love a man that cleans,
and he's definitely

941
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,320
going to have to be cleaning
in that apron from now on,

942
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,680
but I think he's going to
have to lose the jocks.

943
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:31,040
While David's cleaning seems
to have sparked some intimacy

944
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:32,360
in his relationship,

945
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,200
things are
far less certain for Steven,

946
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,880
who's hoping a peace offering
will help get his relationship

947
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,240
with Rachel back on track.

948
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,160
I don't know where
I currently stand, Rachel.

949
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,640
The way she was packing
her bags this morning,

950
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,040
there was a bit of anger.

951
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:50,600
She totally cleaned
out the apartment.

952
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:57,280
So I'd like to know where she's
at and work my way from there.

953
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,720
Hello.
Holy shit. What?

954
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,960
I thought I'd bring
you a little something.

955
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,360
I love roses much.

956
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,160
Rachel loves her flowers,

957
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:14,920
but I wouldn't say I've
won her over.

958
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,320
I would say she's
given me a chance.

959
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:23,360
I noticed you really
cleaned out the apartment,

960
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,240
and I sort of took that as
a message of like,

961
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,800
oh, shit,
maybe she's checked out now.

962
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,800
Um, I guess I was trying to,
like,

963
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,720
send a message and get you to
understand,

964
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,880
like, how serious is this for me?

965
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,520
I stood there really vulnerably
last night,

966
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,240
and I feel rejected.

967
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,280
Flowers, help.
They do help.

968
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,560
But it's more than flowers.

969
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:54,760
I understand that.

970
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,800
It needs to come from you now.

971
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,400
Yeah.

972
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,840
I'm really sorry that
I hurt your feelings.

973
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,160
And I felt like now that I've
reflected on it,

974
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,560
I could have done your ultimate
fantasy task differently.

975
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,760
You are sorry,
and I appreciate that,

976
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:17,080
but also not going to back away
from holding you accountable

977
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:18,960
to what you're saying
you're going to do.

978
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:21,560
I'm not giving up.

979
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,800
Steven popping in tonight
has really helped our relationship

980
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,840
because I really
didn't expect him to.

981
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:32,400
I feel like it's sunk in how
he actually made me feel.

982
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,080
But I wouldn't call it a huge
turning point yet

983
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:37,440
because there's more to follow.

984
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,800
Actions speak louder than words.

985
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,280
So I'll go back in
with Steven tomorrow.

986
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,320
But for me, actions
is what I need.

987
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:48,280
Alright, I'll see you tomorrow,
right?

988
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:49,680
Get some sleep.

989
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,320
I'm glad to
be given a second chance,

990
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,040
and I'm really hopeful that
it's a turning point.

991
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:55,600
Talk tomorrow.
Yeah.

992
00:47:55,720 --> 00:47:58,960
I'm hoping this time in a few days
it's a much different situation.

993
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,240
I need to put
some water in them.

994
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:09,160
Also hoping to turn things
around in his relationship is Chris,

995
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,440
who's finally home from
a late night shopping spree

996
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,200
to help with his intimacy
task for Brook.

997
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,680
Obviously, I'm going to do
something nice for Brook.

998
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,880
I'd do something nice
for Brook regardless,

999
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,000
but obviously it's just trying
to reinforce the fact that I'm here

1000
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:27,760
and I'm doing the best I can.

1001
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:29,960
How are you going?
Amazing.

1002
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,640
How was today?
Um, yeah.

1003
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,120
No, there's a bit of insight.

1004
00:48:37,240 --> 00:48:39,600
What was in the insight?

1005
00:48:39,720 --> 00:48:44,040
Um, just to keep - I don't know,
putting my best foot forward.

1006
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:45,600
Mm.

1007
00:48:45,720 --> 00:48:50,680
After the hiccups that we've had,
I'm just going to show Brook that,

1008
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:52,960
you know, that we're good
together and reinforce that.

1009
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:57,000
I've got something I'd like to
do for yourself.

1010
00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:00,800
Gosh.
Um, you give me five?

1011
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:01,960
OK.

1012
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:04,320
And I want to set something
up for you.

1013
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:05,880
Alright?
Alright.

1014
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,600
Alright. Get out of here.

1015
00:49:07,720 --> 00:49:10,200
I just want to try and switch
her mindset bit by bit

1016
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,880
into putting her trust in me.

1017
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,040
OK. Bye.
Trust me.

1018
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,360
OK.
Thanks.

1019
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,560
So I'm gonna
do spa night for Brook.

1020
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,400
A few little face masks,
bubble bath,

1021
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,320
something just nice and small,
but also make her feel appreciated.

1022
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,680
Obviously,
I'm hoping it pays off.

1023
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,160
I think anyone in my position
would be hoping it pays off.

1024
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,120
Obviously feeling
a little overwhelmed.

1025
00:49:38,240 --> 00:49:43,160
Um, I was kind of looking
forward for some space

1026
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,880
after what I had left Chris on this
morning,

1027
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,960
but he's going out and doing
these tasks

1028
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:50,280
to make me feel good, obviously,

1029
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,840
but I feel a little bit smothered.

1030
00:49:55,240 --> 00:49:58,600
I've tried to explain that to
him so many times,

1031
00:49:58,720 --> 00:50:01,240
and I don't think he's
understanding.

1032
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,920
Why am I nervous?
Don't be nervous.

1033
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,720
I just am hoping that it's not too
romantic or anything like that,

1034
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,160
considering I'm just
feeling a little overwhelmed

1035
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,760
with how I'm feeling towards
him at the moment.

1036
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:20,360
(ANGULAR STRINGS)

1037
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,120
So this is yours if you want it.

1038
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,160
Mm.
So what are you thinking?

1039
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,040
Worst case, we can, we can...

1040
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:35,840
we can do maybe a couple of
glasses of champagne,

1041
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,000
some face masks on the couch
if you want to, but up to you.

1042
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:39,920
No, I don't want to.

1043
00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,320
Sorry.
Nah, nah, it's fine.

1044
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,960
He's done something super
thoughtful for me,

1045
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,440
which is beautiful,

1046
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,800
but I'm not feeling it
at the moment.

1047
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:53,680
I think after this morning's chat,
I don't know if he's

1048
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,760
really understanding where
I'm at still.

1049
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:58,640
And I don't know how many
times I can tell him.

1050
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:02,840
Obviously, there's a bit of
a situation between us

1051
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,800
where you're feeling a bit uneasy.
Mm.

1052
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,400
Um, which is completely fine.

1053
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:10,160
As I said, there's two
people in a relationship.

1054
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:11,200
Yeah.

1055
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:16,160
Um, it's sort of for me
about just doing the best that I can

1056
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,840
and knowing that I've tried to
do whatever I can

1057
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,440
to make things comfortable or better
for you.

1058
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,480
Yeah, but I just need you to know
that, like, it's not about that.

1059
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,880
Yeah.
It's about what I've seen.

1060
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:29,920
And that's what I'm struggling with.

1061
00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:33,480
It's taking a toll on me.
Like it really is.

1062
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,000
And I just need a little bit
of space,

1063
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:37,160
and that's all I can
ask for right now.

1064
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,960
Disappointed, um,
more in myself, obviously.

1065
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,680
Causing Brook to pull back.

1066
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,320
But it's just that in
the back of her mind,

1067
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:53,520
she's got some doubt.

1068
00:51:54,720 --> 00:51:57,280
I'm obviously invested.

1069
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:00,080
It's just a matter of -
I don't know.

1070
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,600
Wait and see how things pan
out over the coming weeks.

1071
00:52:02,720 --> 00:52:05,920
I definitely feel like I'm in
limbo at the end of the day,

1072
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,680
I've got obviously got feelings,
Brook's got feelings.

1073
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,920
She's just she's just
holding them back.

1074
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:15,280
So I think she's not really gonna
dive into them unless

1075
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,640
she's fully confident of the
situation and where it's going.

1076
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,160
Um, so I guess that, yeah,

1077
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,720
that's basically
what we're waiting for.

1078
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,200
Yeah. Yeah, I'm doing well.

1079
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,040
Yeah.

1080
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,040

1081
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:45,320
NARRATOR: After a challenging start
to their relationship,

1082
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,480
Intimacy Week now has Mel and Luke
heading in the right direction.

1083
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,800
(KNOCKING)
We have a letter.

1084
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,840
However, Intimacy Week itself is not
without its own challenges.

1085
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,360
Alright, let's do it.

1086
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,360
Physical intimacy can take time.

1087
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:03,160
Jumping right in is not
always the best way

1088
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:04,680
forward for individuals.

1089
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,680
I knew intimacy week wouldn't
be intimacy week

1090
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,680
without some kind of physical
intimacy.

1091
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:10,800
I knew it.

1092
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,160
Are you nervous?

1093
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,000
Physical intimacy between
Mel and I

1094
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,480
is still waiting outside the door.

1095
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:19,920
It's not even in here yet.

1096
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:24,040
This task invites you to build trust
and grow physical connection

1097
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:28,440
between partaking in small steps
through the eyes and the body.

1098
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,360
Luke and I basically
have no physical intimacy.

1099
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,800
Mini golf, we high fived.
Mini golf, we didn't even hug.

1100
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:36,600
So this task is like, whoa!

1101
00:53:36,720 --> 00:53:38,200
Enjoy. Alessandra.

1102
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,160
What's the next thing say?

1103
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,680
Step 1: The Eye Gaze.

1104
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,480
Begin by sitting across from
your partner

1105
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:51,880
and looking in their eyes for three
uninterrupted minutes.

1106
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:54,960
Three minutes.
Three uninterrupted minutes.

1107
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,880
Staring at Luke's eyes for
three minutes?

1108
00:53:58,000 --> 00:53:59,280
Holy moly.

1109
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,640
Like, internally,
I'm screaming like ah!

1110
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,560
Like,
this is really intense for us,

1111
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,760
for two people who have just
recently started hugging.

1112
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:08,760
Ready, set, go!

1113
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,960
As I was really looking into
Luke's eyes,

1114
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:32,960
I realised he's got a really caring
heart

1115
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,800
and I'm definitely more
comfortable with him.

1116
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,760
As it kind of went on,
it just became more and more chill,

1117
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:43,880
and then felt like
a comfortable kind of place.

1118
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,720
Well, I think I've ever looked at
someone with three minutes before.

1119
00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,000
No. (LAUGHS)
Have you ever done that?

1120
00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,360
Right. Step 2: The Hug.

1121
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,120
Now that you've connected
through the eyes,

1122
00:54:57,240 --> 00:54:58,840
bring your bodies together.

1123
00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:05,120
Melt into each other's arms
and share a long three minutes...

1124
00:55:05,240 --> 00:55:07,280
Oh, my god!
..embrace.

1125
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:10,800
Oh, I'm so nervous for this.

1126
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:13,360
We haven't had more than a one
second hug,

1127
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,280
so a three minute hug is like
crazy town for us.

1128
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,400
Oh, man.

1129
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:25,920
OK, ready?

1130
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:27,480
Are you going over or under?
Over.

1131
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,160
Or should I go under? I'll go...
You're gonna drag me down?

1132
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:31,880
I'll go under.
No, no, you do whatever you want.

1133
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,360
OK, ready, set, go.

1134
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,120
(GENTLE MUSIC)

1135
00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,360
We've never hugged like this.

1136
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,240
We've given, like, a little,
hello, how you going?

1137
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,640
But, like, not a hug, hug.

1138
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:06,720
And I feel like I am a bit of,
like a physical person.

1139
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:09,760
So bridging that gap of
being a little bit physical.

1140
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,200
Yeah, it feels nice.

1141
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,320
(ALARM SOUNDS)

1142
00:56:24,720 --> 00:56:26,840
Nice.
OK.

1143
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,000
That was a big milestone for us.

1144
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,600
Are you OK?
Yeah.

1145
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:33,800
I feel like if we did that
hug a week ago,

1146
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,760
we would have been counting down
the seconds till it ended.

1147
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,560
So I definitely see
a little bit of progress.

1148
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:39,600
Oh, my god,

1149
00:56:39,720 --> 00:56:42,080
I'm so shocked that we were able to
hug each other for three -

1150
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:45,600
hug each other for three minutes
like we've just started hugging.

1151
00:56:45,720 --> 00:56:46,800
Let's be real.

1152
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:51,160
So the fact that we could hug for a
long time like shooketh to my core.

1153
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:55,200
We've already come so far just now,
so I'm, I'm happy.

1154
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:56,280
Same. Me too.

1155
00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:00,040
This task definitely
has brought me closer to Luke,

1156
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:03,080
and we definitely have been
progressing in the right direction.

1157
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:04,680
I'm finally getting to a place where

1158
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:07,080
I am letting my walls down a little
bit.

1159
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,560
Imagine us this time two weeks
ago having to do this challenge.

1160
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:12,720
I know, impossible.
Oh.

1161
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,120
Oh, my god.

1162
00:57:14,240 --> 00:57:15,200
See you later.

1163
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,560
Like one of us would have walked out
of the room table, flipped.

1164
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:18,920
You know, shit everywhere.

1165
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:20,560
Like we would have
stormed out of the room.

1166
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,920
So to be able to do this,
it was huge for us.

1167
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,080
I reckon we've done well.
Me too.

1168
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:27,960
I feel closer with Mel after the
task,

1169
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:30,280
because that physical gap between us

1170
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,520
has kind of been
bridged a little bit.

1171
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,600
Near the start of intimacy week,

1172
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,520
I didn't know how the tasks were
beneficial,

1173
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,800
but now I'm starting to see like,
yeah,

1174
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,800
the tasks have a bit
of a positive impact.

1175
00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:45,920
(LAUGHS) I got you.

1176
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:47,240
Coming up...

1177
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:51,760
Is this going to be the hill
as a couple we die on?

1178
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:53,760
It's Steven's
moment of truth.

1179
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:55,840
I can't.

1180
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,240
And one bride
has disappeared.

1181
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:09,960
NARRATOR: After a heartfelt apology
last night from Steven.

1182
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:13,320
This morning, Rachel is moving
back into the apartment.

1183
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:17,840
In you go.

1184
00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:22,280
Rachel's home with her
half a dozen bags

1185
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,160
and all her stuff.

1186
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,280
Yeah, it's nice for her to be back

1187
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,920
and bring a few of the household
items.

1188
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,560
As you can see, you can
bounce a coin off this bed.

1189
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,520
I wouldn't say you
could bounce a coin off it,

1190
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:36,760
but you have made it.

1191
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,360
And that's a start.
I love it.

1192
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,760
It's good to be home and it's
nice to be back with Steven,

1193
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,280
but I have made it very clear
that Steven has to step up.

1194
00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,920
It's all going to come from you now,

1195
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:52,760
but I wouldn't come back if I didn't
feel good about us.

1196
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:56,120
I'm here because I want
to be here, OK?

1197
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:57,480
OK.
Can I have a hug?

1198
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:58,960
Sure.

1199
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,120
It's good to have you back.

1200
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:06,120
I felt like I really
screwed up with Rachel.

1201
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:10,040
And I'm glad to be
given a second chance.

1202
00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:12,920
She's put the ball in my court,
so it's up to me now.

1203
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,160
Let's get the relationship
back on track.

1204
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:17,560
As always, you make me feel
really comfortable.

1205
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:18,680
As always. Um...

1206
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,920
(KNOCKING)
Oh, hold that thought.

1207
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:24,000
Uno momento.

1208
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:27,440
Luckily for Steven,
Alessandra's next task

1209
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,800
could just give him
the opportunity

1210
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:32,320
to put his money where his mouth is.

1211
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:33,600
Ah! We got mail.

1212
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,200
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo,
hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo!

1213
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,760
Physical intimacy can take time.

1214
00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,640
Jumping right in is not
always the best way

1215
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:45,360
forward for all individuals.

1216
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:49,320
I know Steven struggles
with intimacy.

1217
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,400
He's expressed that
multiple times.

1218
00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:56,600
Obviously, one of our tasks
definitely didn't go well.

1219
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,480
But if you're not going to
put everything into these tasks,

1220
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:00,960
what's the point?

1221
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:04,480
The kiss.

1222
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:07,680
Share a long, passionate kiss.

1223
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:11,520
Your goal is to make
your partner feel seen,

1224
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:13,080
wanted, and desired.

1225
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:18,000
I really stuffed up with
the ultimate fantasy.

1226
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:20,400
Seeing her break down
in front of me,

1227
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:22,680
it's really scarred me,

1228
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,720
and I thought there was no coming
back from that.

1229
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,880
If you're comfortable,

1230
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:32,040
I encourage you to kiss for three
minutes with no distractions,

1231
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:36,560
no hesitation, just passion,
presence and connection.

1232
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,920
Miles will chuck some
nerves in there as well

1233
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:40,400
to make it even more awkward.

1234
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:46,080
If this is something you're
willing to try,

1235
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:50,240
essentially, I will follow
your lead on this

1236
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:54,000
because I've already told you once

1237
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:55,880
and I'm going to reiterate it,

1238
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:57,520
this now comes from you.

1239
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,000
I've already put myself out there...
Yeah.

1240
01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:00,760
..in this like respect.

1241
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:04,240
So I will follow your
lead on this one.

1242
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:05,920
Just look...

1243
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:08,800
You know, I don't go
around kissing all the time,

1244
01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:10,120
so it's been a while.

1245
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:15,440
Last night he said if he
could do things differently,

1246
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:16,600
he probably would.

1247
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:19,640
Well, this is do or die, babes.

1248
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,360
I can't.

1249
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,680
Three minutes is a long time.

1250
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,840
Is this going to be the hill
as a couple we die on?

1251
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:31,360
There is no way
I can do three minutes.

1252
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:38,760
I don't want our first proper
kiss to be three minutes.

1253
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,560
I think that that's
just a bit too much.

1254
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,080
You know what?

1255
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:46,240
(BLEEP) it.

1256
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:47,960
Just give me a kiss, damn it.

1257
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:11,640
And you said
you're a bad kisser.

1258
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,040
How was it?
It was good.

1259
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,680
I've still got it.

1260
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,720
I just can't believe how blushed
you've gone.

1261
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:22,080
What can I say?

1262
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,760
The guy I like
finally kissed me.

1263
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,720
I'm pretty happy with myself.

1264
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,360
He seized the moment.

1265
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,000
I've really been wanting
Steven to show me

1266
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,880
in his actions, not just his words,

1267
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:38,880
and he really did that.

1268
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:41,160
So I have learned
a lot this week.

1269
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,480
So it's not just this task,
it's all the tasks.

1270
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,640
And I could take my time
back on that one

1271
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,680
where I really (BLEEP) up,
I would change it.

1272
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:51,880
I really would,
I would do things differently.

1273
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,120
I do hope that he
felt something from that

1274
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:56,720
because shit I did.

1275
01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:00,120
I want to have another hug.
Oh.

1276
01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:04,160
Thank you.

1277
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:05,800
Well, one bride's relationship

1278
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,040
seems to be moving
in the right direction.

1279
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,720
Another bride has disappeared.

1280
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:25,320
# #

1281
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:29,120
After a fraught intimacy week,

1282
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:34,480
Brook has made the shock decision to
leave the experiment.

1283
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:38,560
Mm.

1284
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:42,840
Just trying to
think how to word it.

1285
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:50,120
Brook's decided to go back
home to the Gold Coast.

1286
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:54,520
She's just followed her,
her mind and her heart,

1287
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,080
and had to had to pull the pin.

1288
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:03,840
I'm not gonna sit here and lie
and say I'm not upset.

1289
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:11,320
I think anyone with feelings and
emotions directed towards someone,

1290
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:13,120
and then obviously
they're not reciprocating.

1291
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:14,520
It's always going to hurt.

1292
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,440
I came in this not thinking I'd
get matched with anyone

1293
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:19,920
that I'd have a connection
with at all.

1294
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:21,520
And then I met Brook.

1295
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:26,160
I've said from the start
that I thought she was

1296
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,840
this amazing person with
an awesome personality.

1297
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,200
And obviously I was attracted to
her and had feelings for her.

1298
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:34,360
I met someone that
I didn't think I would meet

1299
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,040
in a million years.

1300
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:38,280
We got along so well
and had a lot in common.

1301
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:39,400
And you know,

1302
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,840
we talk and share things
openly and honestly.

1303
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:45,440
It feels like I've
known her for years.

1304
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:48,640
But Brook's gone and I'm
here by myself now

1305
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,760
and it's, you know, it's difficult.
It feels like there's a void now.

1306
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:59,200
Obviously sad, but I understand
how we've gotten to where we are,

1307
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:05,040
and I know it all stems from me,
my attitude and my audition video.

1308
01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:07,040
Obviously, it's just been a bit
of a catalyst,

1309
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,880
and it made things very hard to sort
of get to a good spot with Brook.

1310
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,760
So I think I'm more just
disappointed in myself.

1311
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,680
There's been a lot of learnings.

1312
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:18,160
I think, I think the biggest
thing for me is just to start

1313
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:22,920
thinking a lot more about situations
and the gravity of situations

1314
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:26,160
before I make
comments and remarks,

1315
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:28,440
which get me in trouble
every day in life.

1316
01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:31,640
But I do feel like I gave 100%.

1317
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:33,880
I've been trying to be that
positive person

1318
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:35,120
and put my best foot forward.

1319
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,200
Obviously hoping to change
her how she feels about me.

1320
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:42,920
But now, um, I just feel defeated.

1321
01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,160
(BELL RINGS)

1322
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:51,760
NARRATOR: Tomorrow night.

1323
01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:53,440
What is going on here?

1324
01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:55,600
I don't understand.

1325
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:57,360
We need an explanation.

1326
01:05:57,480 --> 01:05:59,920
A dinner party so confronting...

1327
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:01,120
Oh.

1328
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,680
..it has to be seen
to be believed.

1329
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:04,960
Oh, my god.

1330
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:08,120
No.

1331
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,000
It's the allegation...

1332
01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:11,120
I'm beyond shocked.

1333
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,520
..that will split
the experiment wide open.

1334
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:17,160
Oi, no!
That's enough, guys.

1335
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,080
Just calm down.
Don't talk about her like that.

1336
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:20,520
Hell broke loose.

1337
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:21,800
It was just insane.

1338
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:23,880
It's a real betrayal.
Yeah.

1339
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,960
And it's had a terrible
effect on the entire group.

1340
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,400
I don't want to be sitting
at a table with that going on.

1341
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:35,640
I think some relationships
will be destroyed tonight.

1342
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:37,720
I mean, honestly.

1343
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,200
I think it's going to be
hard to come back from this.

1344
