-* Baby *
* Got a wildfire burning for you inside *
-Welcome to "Love Island USA."
Rob and Leah seemed like a match made in heaven.
Of course they do.
He's a snake wrangler, and she's dressed like a python.
Hakeem's looking to steal Kendall's girl, Hannah,
while Hannah's just looking to steal Hakeem's wine.
-So, how are you feeling?
-Feeling amazing. -Yeah?
-Always feeling good. -Tell me, tell me.
-What you mean, tell me? -Who's, like, your top three?
-Top-three, top-three. -Yeah.
-You know, there's this girl.
You know, she's wearing green. -[ Laughs ]
-You know what I'm saying?
-This is so bad to say, but, like,
I'm scared to talk to a Miami guy
'cause I know how Miami guys are. -Oh, true.
-You're not a fuckboy?
-I'm not. I think I'm lover boy.
I've been telling you this. -I know you told me,
but I'm like, "You're not a fuckboy?"
-I've been telling you. -Not the Miami fuckboy?
I've been nice to you. I've been saying...
-You have. -...I like staying inside.
And, like, I like chilling, working out.
You know what I'm saying? You know?
Like that's the whole thing. -I like it, I like it.
-You know, 'cause -- -I like it.
-I'm not gonna lie.
I'm kind of confused.
I'm very confused, actually,
because obviously, Kendall is the number-one pick.
But, then, Hakeem came up to me,
and we had a chat, as well, and it was very good, as well.
And he's feeling me, too.
And I'm like -- I'm feeling them both.
So I'm like I don't really know.
I don't know what to do.
-Um...how are you feeling?
-I'm with Hannah right now, but your boy Hakeem,
I know he's hunting.
Hunting.
Yeah, yeah. [ Laughs ] -Yeah.
-Yeah, but, like, I know he's, like, really, really into her.
I'm looking over. I'm like...
I'm seeing Hakeem and Hannah.
I'm like, "Hey."
I'm like, "Y'all are pretty close right now."
I'm like, "Back up."
Like, that's enough. That's enough.
Like, time-out. Like, y'all are done.
Like [chuckles] next chat."
-Obviously, like, I'm very attracted to you.
You have a very good personality, sense of humor.
So I am interested in you, as well.
-Gotcha. For sure. Okay. -You know?
-You got some things to process.
-I do. -You know?
-I mean, I'm feeling good, though.
Yeah. -I'm feeling great.
[ Both laughing ]
-Kordell's struggling with island life.
He and Serena haven't exactly hit it off.
And this evening,
he mixed up his shaving cream with superglue.
-So how are you feeling?
-I definitely like you.
Like, I will establish that.
But I obviously have some type of guard up, some type of --
-I still see it. That's what I'm saying.
-I love the fact that, like,
it's not, like, steering you away.
I definitely just think, but I'm not, like, a fast mover.
Like, I do believe, like, the best relationships come from,
like, when you were, like, truly, like, friends --
like best friends first.
-Are you trying to best-friend me?
-What does that mean -- like friend-zone you?
-Yeah. -No. I'm saying, like,
I need to know we can be, like, besties before --
-Right. -You know? I'm saying, like, I need to know
I have a friend in you before I can have,
like, you know, a relationship with you.
-Right. -But, like, honestly,
I'm hella attracted to you.
Like, you're fine as fuck. Like -- [ Laughs ]
And I know I probably haven't told you that
because, like, I be keeping my cards close to my chest.
Like, you're very attractive.
-And, you know, I ain't got no problems starting off slow.
You know, starting off slow is the best way
to see how it builds up.
-I had this really good chat with Connor.
However, out of everybody in the village still,
I'm the most, like, drawn to Kordell, in a way.
Like, we just get along better.
Although, like, I'm feeling him the most,
I'm, like, burning pretty slow.
Like, I'm just still trying to, like, figure things out.
Like, look. It's just so early.
Like, I think it's, like, really hard for me --
-When I say that, I'm not saying I want to lock in or --
-Yeah, no. -Unless, like, that's what you would want to.
Then I'd be down. But, like...
-[ Laughs ]
-Want to go talk? -Yeah.
-Can I call you? -Let's go talk. Yeah.
-Shortly after his kiss with Kaylor,
JaNa's pulled Connor to tell him he looks like Clark Kent.
JaNa, you need glasses -- Oh, no. Wait.
To look like Clark Kent, Connor needs glasses.
-You look like Clark Kent. Has anyone ever told you that?
-The boys were calling me that earlier.
-Like, when you walked in, you walked in all slow.
Like, do you not know how you walked in?
-No. How did I walk in?
Wait. Oh, yeah. Show me, show me, show me.
-This is you. -Uh-oh, uh-oh.
[ Laughs ]
-Like, coming to save the day. That's how you walk.
-That is not it. -It was -- No.
-It was, like, high confidence. -Was it good?
-It was really good. I'm very impressed. -Okay. Alright.
-Like, what are you looking for?
-I'm looking for, like, a serious relationship.
-I know. Serious.
I want my romantic partner to be my best friend, though.
I know everyone does, but, like, legit my best friend. -Legit.
-People think that's crazy. You know that?
-I like -- Cheesy's fun. -Cheesy's cute. [ Laughs ]
-I like cheesy. I also love to read.
-[ Gasps ]
-I feel like you've been, like, creeping on my conversations.
-Really? -Like, before I got here,
I was reading the dictionary.
I know that sounds really weird,
but, like, I just love learning, like, new words.
-That's kind of --
-There's nothing wrong with increasing your vocabulary.
-Reading -- No, there isn't, there isn't.
-But, like, you promise you won't judge me?
I live by pinky.
I really like books on, like, serial killers
and, like, murderers. -I'm not judging you on that.
-It's very intriguing. -True-crime books are --
-Yeah. Just like the mind-set of a serial killer.
Like, it's good. -You're not brushing up...
-How to get away with murder. -...to, like, figure out...
-I would never murder, but I would know how to do it.
-I won't cross you. [ Both laugh ]
-Connor -- he's, like, really sweet.
I don't know if I'm, like, even on Connor's list,
but just based off the conversation we had,
I, like, genuinely enjoyed it.
There's no ring on my finger. Like, I'm not married.
But it's just one really good conversation, you know?
Like, there's still more to get to know him.
So it's like fair game. -So many people.
I'm really glad you pulled me, by the way. -Yeah.
-'Cause, I mean, you're, like, obviously gorgeous.
-You think so? -Yeah.
-You're so sweet. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-It's time for bed.
And after being pulled for a chat by JaNa,
Connor feels like Superman.
She said Clark Kent, you idiot!
-We'll see. I know she's, like, also very in there.
And so, like, we're just kind of feeling it out.
-With? -Yeah. JaNa.
-Oh. -She came and grabbed me.
-Yeah. -And I don't know.
We sat and talked and, like, had such a good conversation.
-Yeah. -And I was like, "Damn.
I thought you and Coye were gonna be married tomorrow.
-[ Laughs ]
[ Pop music plays ]
-How you feel about that?
-I don't feel like JaNa did me like that.
-I don't think she would. -Yeah.
-* Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh *
**
-Too serious for pillow talk. -But I just wanted
to, like, get her, like, side of it.
**
-Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
-How y'all doing?
-Like -- -Hey! What's up, ladies?
-How was your night? -Stress.
-Yeah, I don't think you should.
-I'm gonna be honest with you.
He kissed me. -Yeah.
-But, like, it wasn't, like -- -Yeah.
-It just, like, wasn't the same.
-Yeah, yeah. -Like, don't get me wrong.
He's a great guy and everything. It's just like
talking with you is so easy and fun and giddy.
We don't have serious conversations like this.
-No, we don't. -So we should.
-Yeah. -But no, I'm not gonna
force something that's not natural.
I can't pretend.
-Yeah. Don't know.
-* Oh-oh-oh-oh *
24/7.
* Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh *
* Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh *

-Shh!

-* Ah, ah *
-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Now, I'll admit, my only experience
of American culture is "Love Island."
But y'all cuddle too much in the mornings.
-* Barefoot in the backyard and... *
-Yo, a hug. Yo, a hug.
[ Laughing ]
Let me get a hug, buddy. [ Laughs ]
-You were hugging me all night. What are you talking about?
-I really was. [ Both laughing ]
-Come here!
-It's gonna be a big day.
It's gonna be a good day.
-So, last night, my convo with Connor...
we kissed. -[ Gasps ]
-But it realized --
Like, it made me, like, realize, like, it wasn't Aaron.
And, like, it wasn't the same.
-Kaylor said to me last night -- She was like,
"Oh, um, I went for a chat.
She said it was a bit stale.
She was then struggling to have a conversation,
but then he, like, leant in and, like, kissed her and stuff.
-What?!
-Did she kiss him back?
-Mm.
-Damn. -Oh, my God.
-I don't really know what to fucking believe,
so I was like, "Right. Fair enough."
-* We got them good, good *
-I'm, like, really overthinking everything.
-'Cause you guys kissed? Is that why?
-Like, I was like, "I don't want to lead Connor on."
And this is like the whole point of everything,
like, right now is to, like, explore.
It's not to, like, just be in one couple.
-We should talk to every person that walks in here.
So, I had a conversation with Connor.
I don't know if I'm Connor's second choice,
but I would hate for Connor to think,
"Well, I couldn't get Kaylor, so I'm gonna just get JaNa."
I never, ever want to be someone's second choice.
-If it's between me and another girl,
choose the other girl.
-[ Laughing ]
[ Indistinct conversations ]
-Little treat!
Little treat for you! -Thank you!
-Oh, my God. Thank you so much.
What are you doing?
-Do you want me to curl your eyelashes?
-No.
-Do you want to curl my eyelashes?
-Wait, wait. -Hey.
-Wait, wait, wait.
-[ Laughs ]
-I played baseball in high school,
and this meant steal.
So I came up with this signal for me and Leah,
like, if we need to meet,
and she finally figured it out.
So I think we're getting there.
-Mm. -Morning.
This is nice. Yeah.
This is good.
-Okay. I need to finish -- -Yeah. Sorry.
Sorry for... -[ Laughs ]
-Alright. Be safe, okay?
-I will.
-Be good. -[ Chuckles ]
-I'm not gonna lie. I feel like me and Kendall
are kind of locked in.
But, also, we still are gonna talk to other people.
Like, I'm still gonna talk to Hakeem today.
Yesterday, I was very confused. I was like 50/50, to be honest.
I was like, "I'm honestly feeling Kendall,
but Hakeem's hot, and he's got a good personality."
So obviously, like --
-So she's still got 24-hour service.
-Yeah. I need to figure it out, 'cause I don't know.
[ EDM music plays ]
-Hakeem and Liv are playing American football.
Do you know that sport they play in America with their hands?
-Alright. This is the last -- This is for everything, right?
-The Super Bowl. -Clock is on 1 second.
It's about to go to zero.
All set? Hike! Go!
Go, go! For the touchdown!
Oh!
Oh, ho ho ho!
Touchdown. -Now the Aussie does the kick.
-Boom! [ Chuckles ]
We got to do a touchdown celebration.
The, like, shoulder bump, the shoulder chest.
Like, we jump, and then together.
-And then into the car.
-Oh. The driving ones?
The touchdown celebrations are crazy, though.
[ Laughs ]
But anyways, yeah. -Do you want some orange?
-I'm good. Thank you.
So, you chose Rob, right,
'cause you felt like, "Alright, cool."
You want to explore something there.
-Like, I'm looking for someone I can have a laugh with,
but, also, like, they know what they want.
Like, they're confident in the girl that they're with.
And, like, I don't want someone to, like, show me off,
but I want someone to be like...
-Like, "Hey, this is my girl.
Hey!" -Yeah. Mm-hmm.
My standards are so low, though, you know?
-Like, I don't expect a lot. -[ Chuckling ] On the ground?
-No. But, like, I don't even have high standards.
I'm like, "Where the hell are these people at?"
-Mm. So you've been choosing the wrong people.
-Like, yeah. I very much, like, can be sweet-talked.
-Oh. Words will do you.
Words will get you. -Uh-huh. Yeah.
-So what about you?
-Yeah. I'm looking for somebody
that I can grow with, somebody that, you know, is loyal,
you know, somebody -- -Super important.
-Yeah. So I want somebody that can grow with me.
-Yeah.
Everything Hakeem looks for is, like, stuff
that I would look for in a guy.
And, like, he's also cheeky, which I like.
And I mean, he's attractive obviously.
Yeah. I'm like -- didn't expect it from that chat.
So who knows.
-You're witty. Like you got the little wit to you.
You know how to just bah-bah-bah.
-Yeah. Let me pop off. Pop! For sure.
-I just wanted to grab you for a chat
and talk a little bit more
because I was kind of just happy you grabbed me last night,
and I feel like we had a good conversation.
I mean, I think, like, we get along really well.
I like how a goal oriented you are.
I like that you know what you want.
-I do. -Obviously think
you're very gorgeous.
-[ Laughs ] Thanks. -Yeah.
-I mean, they're talking again.
I don't know, they smiling. You know what I'm saying?
-Initially with Kaylor, she probably like caught my eye
when I first came in.
So like she was the first person I went and talked to,
but, like, it kind of like perked me up a lot like that
you came and grabbed me and told me that because I was like
kind of made my day a lot better.
-Aw. -Yeah, yeah, it was like you
caught my eye initially, but like --
-Shut it up. -No, no, no,
but like you immediately I saw your connection with Coye,
and I was like, okay.
But I am like trying to be super intentional
about who I'm talking to.
-I can tell. -I don't want to, like,
fuck around.
-Has JaNa been mentioning anything to you?
-I mean, she said the chat was really good.
I don't know if it was like super flirty
or if it was just like getting to know.
She just didn't want to be like the second choice
because obviously him and Kaylor made out last night.
-She done brought up that word "second choice"
like two times.
You know what I'm saying? -Yeah.
-If she was the first choice, like then what?
-Exactly. -You feel me?
-Yeah.
-You have a really good conversation.
Like I can see why it's so easy to talk to you,
and you give really good eye contact.
-It's easy to look in your eyes.
-Really? -Yeah.
It's an easy face to look at.
-You're so sweet.
Connor and Coye, they're so different.
Like, they're literally like opposites.
But I like them both, you know?
-I feel like when it comes to conversations with Coye,
I have to, like, initiate them.
Whereas Connor, it was just, like,
back and forth, nice and easy.
I don't know, I really like Coye's looks,
and it looks like he has really good family values.
But then Connor, really great looks, as well.
Great personality. That's how it's like that.
I'm the one sweating because I'm so used to this.
-Well, I was working out, so I'm definitely sweaty.
-I'm just sweating because I'm talking to you.
-[ Laughs ]
Never mind. I'm gonna change my answer.
That is why I'm sweating.
Because you're making me all nervous.
-I mean, it's just a conversation,
but at the same time, what's being said in the conversation?
-Yeah, the body language is not too bad.
-I mean, something there. Something.
-How many siblings you have?
-I have one. My sister. -Just one?
-That's nice. I have a big ass family.
Uh, my big momma is still alive and kicking it.
She's 101, which is fucking crazy...
-Oh, my God. -...'cause she done
seen it all.
Like, all the generations, all of the changes.
-That's amazing.
-And the best part about it is she still remembers everybody.
-So cute. -[ Chime ]
-Oh, shit! -I got a text!
-Oh, fuck.
-Oh, shit! -Get close. Let's go.
-Wait! -"Islanders, it's time to show
your hand and find out whose numbers are higher or lower.
#LowBlow. #DealBreaker.
[ All shouting ]
-Messy, oh! -What does that mean?
-We're about to find out y'all's secrets.
-I don't know what it means,
but the hashtags are scaring me of hashtag #LowBlow,
hashtag #DealBreaker.
Like, I don't know what this means.
-I'm scared.
-If I find out your body count is over 200, ew.
-200?!
-Shit, like this could be some deal breakers for some people
because I hate liars, hate cheaters.
Like, if you've done something shady.
I ain't a messy person. So I'm alright.
-I'm good.
-That's the first text that's come in while I'm in the villa,
and the cryptic nature of it
has me a little bit worried about what might go down.
It kind of feels like some things might get shaken up.
-High or lower? -What does it mean, dawg?
-What does it mean, higher or lower?
-* Ooh, la la *
-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Our Islanders are about to play a game of kings versus queens.
[ Cheering ]
Which is in no way based on the TV show "Card Sharks."
The Love Island legal team have asked me to mention.
It's just a fun, copyright free game of Higher or Lower.
-All right, boys, let's get into it.
What's the most amount of money
your girl has spent on their man
on one occasion?
-Serena has spent $300. -That's it.
-Once the first number is revealed,
the boys must guess if the next islander is higher or lower.
-Do you think Leah has spent higher or lower than Serena?
-Higher. -Higher.
-She be bougie, she be bougie.
-Oh!
-I knew it.
-It was a custom Louis Vuitton holder for his blunts.
[ Laughter ]
-What?! -For his blunts.
-Wow.
-Do you think the amount that JaNa has spent is higher
or lower than Leah?
-Higher. -Higher.
[ All shouting ]
-What did you spend? Buy him a house or something?
-Like a plane ticket. We went to, like, Cancun.
-Oh, a trip. -That's fuckin' crazy.
-Kaylor. Higher or lower?
-Lower. -Lower.
-Lower, lower.
-Whoa! -Oh!
-What? -What are you spending money on?
-Christmas.
-That baffles me. Absolutely baffles me.
-Liv. Higher or lower? -Lower.
-Whoo! -Okay.
-What you spending on? -Yeah, what you spend?
-Just dinner? -Dinner?
-That's a nice dinner. -Yeah.
-Hannah. Higher or lower than Liv?
-Higher, higher. -Higher.
Let's go. Come on.
-Oh! -Ah!
-You bought a Happy Meal?
-Bought him some gas station snacks.
[ Laughter ]
-You're not my boyfriend, there is no money getting spent.
Like, sorry. Not gonna happen.
-Get ready
because we're about to find out what
your girl's body count is.
-Oh, man.
-Sorry, Mom and Dad. -I'm just not looking.
-Serena's body count is six.
-You got to meet a lot of requirements to ride this ride.
-Yeah! -Oh.
-Do you think Leah's body count is higher
or lower than Serena's?
-Higher. -Yeah, we going up.
-16! -Let's go.
-Do you think JaNa's body count is higher or lower than Leah's?
-Lower. -Lower.
-Lower, lower.
-Oh! -Swear to God, she lied to me.
She's a fucking liar.
-And then he has these little unnecessary side comments.
I don't know what that is, so...
-I'm just glad it's not our fucking number.
-Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be...
-Do you think Kaylor's body count is higher
or lower than JaNa? -Lower.
-Oh. -Oh, whoa.
-A lot of frat parties? -I had a lot of fun
in high school and in college.
It's whatever I do in my time prior to the, like,
the relationship or even,
like, dating should be none of their business.
-Do you think Liv's body count is higher or lower?
-Lower. -Lower.
-Lower?
[ Cheering ]
-Hannah. -I mean you --
-Higher. It's higher.
-11. -Not bad. That's not bad.
-It's a respectable number.
-That's very good. That's very good.
-Okay, let's finish strong, boys. Let's finish strong.
Let's find out what the girls think is
too many sexual partners for their man.
Serena's number is 30.
-Higher. -I think higher.
[ All speaking ]
-Infinity!
-I think we know where to go after infinity.
-Infinity and beyond. -[ Laughs ] And beyond.
-Hundred. -Lower.
-70. -Okay.
-Lower. -Lower.
-Oh. -Very specific.
-Lower. -Lower.
-We're going lower. -Lower.
-30.
-I feel like us girls, our answers were like respectable.
-Now it's time for the girls to ask the questions.
-Let's find out how many times your boy has ghosted somebody.
-Okay.
-Lower, lower.
-Yeah!
-Do we think Hakeem has ghosted women more?
-Yes. -I think so, yeah.
-Ah!
-Oh, my God. -What?!
Explain yourself, sir.
-I'm related to a famous football player.
Uh, Odell Beckham Jr.
It's always him brought up in the conversations.
And when I noticed that, I'd be like,
"Girl, stop talking to me."
-Lord, when I heard who his brother was,
that's my celebrity crush.
-Family week. -Family week.
-Family week better be in person.
-I bet he's watching. -Hi, family.
-He's definitely watching. He comes to my club.
I've met him. Yeah, he comes to my club.
-Did you know that he's his brother?
-No, but he's not a good tipper.
-Okay, ladies, we're about to find out
what your boy's body count is.
Kendall. 27.
-That's not bad. -That's not that bad.
-That's not bad?
-We don't think that's bad.
-Connor's body count. Higher or lower than 27?
-Higher. Higher. -I think it's lower.
He's giving a wholesome king energy.
-I kind of agree. -Don't let me down, Connor.
-Yeah. -Damn.
-Yeah, I had, like, a little fun.
I'm 28 years old. I'm not ashamed.
-Fair enough. -So next we have Hakeem.
Do we think his body count is higher or lower?
-I think higher. -Yeah, I think higher.
-Whatever.
-Let's go! -Whoa!
-Yeah, y'all got it wrong. How y'all feel?
Yeah. Okay.
I don't know what's going on, but all the girls think
I'm this F-boy, I'm a play boy, I do girls dirty.
And that is literally the farthest thing from the truth.
You know, like, I could be a monk
for all they know. They don't know nothing.
-All right, ladies, Aaron.
Do you think Aaron's body count is higher or lower?
-I think it's higher.
[ Screams ]
-And your number was 70? -Mine was 70.
-You should have knocked five off.
-But in my defense, I was broken hearted.
I was just trying to mend my heart, so...
Oh, God.
-Don't break his heart. -If you get under it.
-He was questioning me about my body count,
and I'm like, "Sir, like, can you list all the 70 girls
you hooked up with?"
-Kordell. Higher or lower?
It's lower from what I was told.
-Okay. Go. Go, girl. -So intense.
-30. -Nice.
-I mean, I could have been, you know,
really could have been slanging that Willie,
but I'm not like that.
-Mr. Coye.
Do you think Coye's body count higher
or lower than Kordell's?
-He told me. I already know. 100.
It's 100. Higher.
-We got it right. -Oh, shit.
You have some explaining to do, sir.
-I don't know if that's, like, impressive.
It's not a flex.
B.S. Like, we've talked about this.
He told me for sure the body count is 100.
Maybe a little bit lower.
I'm like, "I hope that's not your ego talking,
like your pride, 'cause it's not cute."
Last question.
Let's find out what the boys think is
too many sexual partners for their girl.
We all saw their numbers.
So this will be very interesting.
Kendall's number is...
Hundreds.
-Oh! -Okay.
-Do you think Connor's number is higher or lower?
-Lower. -Lower, lower.
-15?
-You know the clowns at the fair, and they're like,
that was me.
I was like, "No way."
-Okay, that sounds like a total double standard.
15 was not a good answer.
I will try and make amends with that.
-Do you think Rob's number is higher or lower than Connor?
-I feel like maybe higher.
-Higher, higher. -Higher, higher.
-Damn, he don't care at all. -It doesn't matter to me.
Once again, I would never ask a girl this question.
I think it's immature and not important.
-I think Rob's answer like shows to his maturity.
So I feel like that was even more like confirmation
that I like him and that I feel like we're good together.
-Do you think Hakeem's number is higher or lower than Rob's?
-Lower. -Lower.
-Good.
-At least we know. -It should be more than me.
-Do you think Aaron's number is higher
or lower than Hakeem's number?
-I'm thinking higher.
-Oh, jump scare. -Categorically,
I don't ever ask questions like this.
-But is it in the back of your mind,
whether you ask it or not?
-No, no, I wouldn't, I don't care.
-He was questioning me about my body count.
Meanwhile he's putting 10, and then he has, what,
over 70 bodies?
So like that doesn't really make sense to me.
-Do you think Kordell's number is higher or lower than Aaron?
-Higher. -I agree.
-Oh, okay. -Okay.
-I know what you do in your past, that's you.
It's cool. You know, I'm not going to down you
or degrade you because you did what you did.
-Young king, young king.
Coye, Coye, Coye.
Higher or lower then Cordell?
-Lower. -Lower.
-Yeah.
-Oh. [ Laughs ]
-As long as you got a clean, health history, it don't matter.
-Yeah. -Are you sure
150 are clean? -Yeah.
You getting a check on 150 of them?
-To think that a girl's body count should be 10 or less,
it's like you're no saint.
So who are you to judge?
-And the winners are...
the boys.
[ Cheering ]
Let's go! Let's go!
-No!
-That's because we're honest and open.
-I was like, "Damn, bro."
-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Kordell gets the ick when someone is too obsessed
with the fact his brother's OBJ.
You should try dating a 36-year-old Scottish man
who's never watched the NFL.
And I'm available, boo.
-Kordell, those girls go pulling you for the Odell chats.
-Once they found out, they was all talking.
-But we so like this. We grew up together.
-You did?
-Since I was born, we always been together.
-His name is Kordell and his brother's name is...
-Odell. -But can we admit,
him never, ever bringing it up,
he's so humble for that. -That's so humble.
I was -- I was, like, amazed by that.
Like, that speaks measures about his character.
-JaNa, were Coye's answers a deal breaker?
-You can't judge someone for their past, and I'm not,
but, like, you don't lie about it because I was just like --
-Well, like, now he just can't say anything.
-If you think 150 is cute, like...
-Bro, these girls are cooking.
I know they're cooking us right now, man.
-We're getting roasted.
They're gonna think what they want to think.
-Yeah. -I ain't got nothing to explain.
They gonna think what they want to think at the end of the day.
-JaNa was throwing shots at you today.
-Yeah, she was. -She was going at you.
-How you feel on that?
-That's cool, bro. I ain't did shit.
-"I don't give a fuck."
-I'm not tripping. People --
I let people think what they want to think.
I know who I am in the day.
That's all that matters. -That's all that matters, bro.
-I want to throw up. -Listen, listen.
-No, but it could be like he doesn't want to lose you.
-No, I want to throw up because I'm just confused.
If I'm being honest,
I liked Connor's answers better than Coye's answers.
-Oh, shit. -You know, what's so crazy?
Based off how Coye responds,
like, his energy if he's getting defensive,
is really going to, like -- -Turn you on?
-Compared to I definitely want to talk to Coye.
* Dun dun dun *
Coye, do you want to go talk? -Mm-hmm.
-Let's go over here. -Coye's serious, bro.
-Deep breaths.
Come on. -I'm coming.
-How are you feeling? -I feel good. What's up?
-You are? -Huh?
-You're feeling good? -Yeah, I feel good. What's good?
-I'm not feeling that good.
-About what? -I don't know.
Just, like, I heard your side comments.
-What side comment? Like the one that I said
"Oh, damn. She lied"? -Yeah.
How do you feel about me right now?
-Um...Good.
So you feeling Connor more?
-It's not like I'm feeling him more.
It's just it's easier to talk to him.
I just feel like you're like --
You're a cute little shell, right?
And I'm, like, cracking at it,
trying to, like, you know, just, like get to --
you know, like, I don't know if it's harder
for you to open up or if it's just really how you are.
-I can definitely open up more.
You know, it's just I'm one of those type of people,
like, it's hard for me to really just open up
to somebody so fast.
I don't want to move too fast then something else happen.
I'm still trying to get to know you more.
It's like we only been here what, three days?
-I know, but within the three days, I feel like --
-Just saying you had better conversations.
I understand that.
And I can give you -- I can give you more conversations.
-I shouldn't have to ask you, though.
I shouldn't have to ask.
You should just be, like, giving me the same energy.
It's just like a dead wall.
Hmm.
Sorry, I'm just getting irritated.
It just sucks because I feel like I'm trying so hard,
and I just don't think he's trying as hard.
And it's just -- it's just frustrating, you know?
Like, I don't even know how he feels.
We've talked, like, the most, the longest out of everyone,
and I still don't know how he feels.
Like, that should tell me something,
but it's just frustrating.
-I feel like you mad.
I think a lot of people here are confused.
Be real.
-I think I'm the only one confused.
-You feel like you the only one that's confused?
-I think these girls are getting
really good clarity from their guys.
I don't think I'm getting the most clarity for me.
I don't know.
**
-Time to get ready for the evening.
And judging from his chat with JaNa,
Coye's body count won't be hitting 151 anytime soon.
-If I have to spend one more fucking night
in bed with the lovely Hakeem... -Yes, sir!
[ Laughter ]
-JaNa, where's your head at?
-I literally do not know.
So it's just, like, really irritating.
And when I asked him about it, he was just like --
[ Crying ] I think he tried to, like, brush it under the rug.
I'm sorry.
It's like pulling teeth at this point,
trying to, like, have a conversation with him.
If I'm telling you, I'm, like,
liking my conversations with Connor more,
he's just like, "I respect that.
Oh, I feel that. Like, I can see that."
I'm just like, "Fuck. Like, fight for someone."
You know what I mean? Like, fuck,
I'm trying hard and I shouldn't have to try hard.
-* You look so good in front of me *
* She's got that bad girl energy *
-Yes, sir.
Come on with it.
-Shake that ass, shake that ass, shake that ass, bitch.
-We're really funny.
-Let's take pics. -Wait.
Come take a photo on the balcony.
We're gonna take a selfie on the balcony.
-Okay. [ Speaks indistinctly ]
-* You got me begging, baby *
* Looks like I'm on my knees again *
* Feels like the walls are closing in *
-Have some fucking common decency and respect
to at least be -- -And speak up.
-Yeah. -Yeah.
[ Both laugh ]
-Pussy boy.
**
-* Looks like I'm on my knees again *
[ Cheering ]
-It looks good.
[ Cheering ]
-How'd you feel about my guy right here?
-He's okay.
I'm on the shit list right now. -Are you?
[ Cellphone chimes ] -Oh, my God.
-Wait, I've got -- That's my -- That's yours.
-Guys, guys, guys, I've got a text!
-She got a text? -Oh, already?
-Oh, God.
-Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
-* Oh, I could destroy you *
-What the fuck?
-* Oh, I could destroy you *
**
-* Sirens in my head *
-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
The recoupling is looming, which means unfortunately,
one boy will be dumped.
But good news -- the villa's body count will go down.
-* Silence in the dark *
* The violence in my heart *
* Wish I could remember *
* When I came apart *
-Just be upfront and honest.
Like, so -- -Yes. Okay.
-So you've been in the thing with Rob.
Obviously Rob's with Leah and then --
-Which I'm kind of, like,
pissed about the way he handled it.
Like, I'm someone who's very much like,
tell me honestly. Like, let me tell you,
I will put you in your place when it comes to it.
Like, I hate that. Don't make me look like an idiot.
-* I've been losing hope * -I get it,
because you like the reassurance and directness, but it's like --
-And he's not that.
-* Faith, I've been losing faith *
-When I heard the girls are picking tonight,
I was like, "Oh, damn, this --
this ain't looking good for your boy Hakeem right now."
-I do obviously -- Like, I'm feeling you.
Like, I think you're a really good guy.
Like, I can tell -- Like, I don't --
I barely know you, but I can tell that you're very direct
and you know what you want, and that's what I want.
And, like, it's me or nothing. Like I'm not doing,
like, waiting around for somebody to figure out
if they want me or not.
-I'm the same kind of way.
And with you just being 50/50,
it's not the best feeling, right?
Obviously. -Mm-hmm.
-But you got to know in some capacity.
You know? -I'm not gonna lie.
I'm like 50/50.
-You cannot still be 50/50 right now.
-I don't know.
I have two choices, but I'm just, like --
I'm not confident in anything.
-I feel like me, you, Hakeem, and Kendall,
we're the only four that really got something to worry about.
Your situation --
-You're just worrying about JaNa, right?
That's what you need to worry about.
-No, I'm worried about that.
I'm just saying, it's just the fact
that she's been telling everybody her
and Connor been having good conversation and stuff.
I don't know.
-* I've been losing hope *
-I've had a chat with Connor.
I haven't had a chat with Coye. Do you see this?
Notice how we're sitting here, he's sitting there.
He clearly sees me sitting here.
This is what I mean.
The problem is he doesn't take initiative.
-I don't want to go home.
Her and I had a really good talk.
Did I tell her enough for her to understand where I'm at?
I have no fucking clue.
-* Can't save me now *
* I'm on unsteady ground *
-Are you all right?
-I feel like I have to take the initiative to,
like, talk to you and, like, help you open up more.
-Like, I'm -- I want to open up more to you.
I really do. -And I want you to.
God, I want that so bad. You have no idea.
Connor and Coye, I think they're both, like, 10 out of 10.
But the thing I want is good communication.
Like, the teeter-totter is literally
like this at this point.
I'm just going with my gut.
I hate this feeling.
-* No one can save me now *
* I'm on unsteady ground *
* Whoa *
-Ariana Madix is here.
Oh, I'd love to be at this recoupling.
I've got some serious FOMO.
Oh, brilliant. I'll just grab my Crocs, Ariana.
**
-Hey, Islanders! -Oh, shit. Ahh.
-Fucking Ariana's here. Ohh.
-Every time she comes, I just want to, like, pee.
-Can you all please gather at the fire pit?
-* Here we come *
* It's just begun *
* You better run, run, run *
* It's just begun *
* Here we come *
-I'm sure you all know why I'm here.
It's time for the first recoupling.
**
Each girl will choose the boy they want to couple up with.
The boy who isn't chosen to be in a couple
will be dumped from the villa immediately.
**
Serena, please stand up.
You're up first.
Tell us who you would like to couple up with and why.
-I would like to couple up with this boy
because we get along very well.
We have a lot of similar interests.
He has a great sense of humor.
This was not a difficult decision,
because I feel like I'm not really getting along
with anybody else in the same ways
that I'm getting on with him.
-* Baby, I just want you here with me *
-So the boy that I would like to couple up with is...
-* I just want you here *
-...Kordell.
-* Holding on to you *
-Congratulations, Kordell.
Please go and join Serena.
-* I'm holding on to you *
* Hey *
* You *
**
-You guys are really cute. -Thank you.
-* Oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa, oh-oh *
**
Kaylor. You're up next.
-I would like to couple up with this boy
because I feel like from the jump,
everything has been so natural.
And I not only feel like this boy is one of my best friends,
but I'm really excited to see what the future may hold.
So the boy that I would like to couple up with is...
**
...Aaron.
[ Applause ] -* Look into the cloudy sky *
* Where the sun shines through *
* And I'll be there **
**
-I'm kidding.
-[ Smooches ]
**
-* You can't run away now *
* Caught in the web *
* Of all of the truth and the lies *
**
-[ Breathes deeply ] -Hannah.
Over to you. -Let's get it!
-If you want to tell us who you'd like
to couple up with, and why.
[ Woman vocalizing ]
-Okay.
I would like to couple up with this boy
because we make each other laugh.
You know, we have such a good time around each other.
I think he has such a great personality.
You know, he has so many amazing qualities about him.
I really just love being around him.
I can't wait to explore it and get to know him more.
He makes me just, like -- I feel like a little kid.
You know? I get excited to be around him.
[ Laughs ]
I know that I'm making the right decision.
**
So, the boy I would like to couple up with is...
-* Get ready for the showdown, baby *
* Are you ready for me? *
-...Kendall. -* It's going down *
[ Applause ]
**
-Baby! -[ Laughs ]
-Mm... -Let's go,
Mr. and Mrs. Hollywood!
-[ Laughs ]
-* You're going down *
-Kendall. You okay?
-I'm feeling good now. [ Laughter ]
**
-* You're going down *
**
-Okay, Liv. We're coming to you next.
Who would you like to couple up with?
**
-I would like to couple up with this boy
because over the past, like, few chats we've had,
it's gone really well.
I feel like he knows what he wants, and that's,
like, a massive thing that I look for.
He's also very, like,
a traditional kind of romance style.
Like, he likes to be the gentleman.
I've had some ups and downs in the last couple of days,
but I feel like this could grow to something.
It's been intense.
I mean, coming in, having to steal someone's guy,
getting to know everyone.
One thing I really don't like is when people aren't straight up
and honest with their feelings,
'cause I have more respect for you.
And that's something that I feel like the person
I'm gonna couple up with does.
So the boy I'd like to couple up with is...
-* Lost our light *
* Was the ultimate sacrifice *
-...Hakeem.
-Hey.
-* We built this love on a bed of stones *
* To watch it fall and break up *
-Oh! -* We both know *
* We were doomed from the start *
* There's nothing heavy like a broken heart *
-Hakeem.
You came in and got yourself a girl.
-I did. -Is that what you expected?
-You know,
I'm just not here for anybody being not upfront.
Like, waking up this morning, I was like,
"Hannah's already feeling Kendall much more,"
just from the actions that she was exhibiting.
Didn't align with what she was saying.
-So you wanted her to tell you earlier on
that that's how she was feeling? -I would have loved
for that to happen. Like, I kept on asking her.
-I told you where I was at. -She never said that.
-I told you I was -- I told you he was my number one.
But I said, "I would like to get to know you,
but I am feeling Kendall more."
-That was never stated.
She said -- -Yes, it was stated.
-She said, "I'm 50-50," from last night,
to this morning, to literally two seconds ago.
-* Let's talk about it *
-I did say I was 50-50
because I gotta consider, you know?
Like, I gotta get to know both of you.
But, you know, I am 50-50, and I'm...
I don't know. -Well, it's zero right now.
**
[ No audio ]
-So I don't feel like I did anything wrong.
My connection with him is stronger.
-Yeah. -But I do feel kind of confused.
-You can obviously explore different people,
but when it comes down to it, if you are feeling someone more,
just say that.
I feel like standing there
and saying, "I want to get to know you both,"
yeah, you're still trying to like both,
could come across as a bit shady or playing.
-I'm over this shit.
**
-Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
We're in the middle of the first recoupling of this series,
and it's Leah's turn to choose.
-Leah. Please stand up.
Who are you going to couple up with?
-I would like to couple up with this boy
because I feel like from the moment
that we set eyes on each other,
we just had an instant connection.
And the more I talk to him, the more I start to like him.
And he's very different from what I feel like I'm used to.
I think he's, like, a proper gentleman.
So the boy I would like to couple up with is...
**
...Rob.
-* Let's go chasing stars this evening *
* Eyes wide shut in fast cars, dreaming *
-Rob, how does it feel to be back with Leah?
-Oh, it feels good. It feels right.
And I think it was good that we kind of got a little shook up.
You know, I think it really,
like, helped me realize how much I really like her.
And I'm happy.
A happy boy.
**
-JaNa, you are the last to pick.
-Yes.
**
[ Breathes deeply ]
**
-There are two boys left -- Coye and Connor.
Whoever you don't choose to couple up with
will leave the villa tonight.
[ Dramatic music plays ]
**
Who are you going to couple up with?
-I would like to couple up with this boy
because other than the fact
that he is obviously very handsome,
I want to believe that he is open
to working on our relationship.
This has been a very difficult decision.
At this point, I'm just going to go with my gut.
**
Sorry.
Thank you.
**
So the boy I would like to couple up with is...
**
...Connor.
**
-* Just let me fade away into the night *
-* Into the night *
-* If you just let go *
* We'll be alright *
-Connor. How are you feeling?
-I mean, obviously that was a really tough decision for her.
So, I mean, I'm really happy she chose me.
Um, I think we have a really good connection
and I'm excited to explore that.
-I told myself I'm gonna just always put myself first
while I'm here, so that if I were to leave,
it's, like, with no regrets, you know?
So I did what I felt like I needed to do.
-What was it that you felt didn't work
with you and Coye?
-Communication. Like, when it comes to our conversations,
I just felt like I always had to, like,
push, you know, like, initiate them first.
And I feel like it should be, like, a two-way street.
And it just didn't feel like a two-way street at all.
-I respect that. -Yeah.
**
Thank you.
**
-Coye, you haven't been chosen to be in a couple,
and that means your time on Love Island is over.
Is there anything you want to say?
-Um, I feel like, uh, JaNa,
she made the best decision for her.
Um, she's going off her emotions, which is valid.
And I respect it.
-Thank you.
**
I'm sorry.
-* I fell by the wayside, like everyone else *
-The rest of you, I'll see you soon.
* When you're hurt under the surface *
* Like trouble water *
-I love you, brother. -I love you, brother.
-Oh, no. -Oh.
-What the fuck, man?!
-Yeah, I'm getting all sentimental and shit.
-You're gonna be missed, my boy.
-Safe travels, man. Safe travels.
-Alright, bro. -No hard feelings.
-There ain't no hard feelings, bro.
-I don't know why I'm crying. -No crying. No crying. I know.
-I'm emotional, so I can't even imagine.
-Ohh.
-Bro, I'm gonna miss you, dawg.
-All of y'all boys, already.
-Come on. Give me a hug. -Thanks.
-I'm sorry. -It's all good.
You got to do what you got to do.
-Just knowing that I'm not going to say the name
that everyone was expecting,
it was, like, just the worst feeling.
It's such, like, a shitty feeling.
-Group hug, group hug, everyone.
-I thought we had such a strong start.
You know? It felt like we could have built more,
but he just didn't seem to care.
Like, he just wasn't trying hard enough, you know?
-Oh. [ Sighs ] Dude, I really can't get over, bro,
all this shit, dude. -This shit is all crazy.
I ain't gonna lie. -It's fucking crazy.
-Up, down, up, down, up, down. [ Laughs ]
-It was a fucking curveball, man.
-Yeah, that was a curveball. I ain't gonna lie.
-We all grew a bond, like, instantly.
Coye was like a big bro to me, for sure.
-I feel like she'll regret it, but whatever.
It's done now, isn't it? -But, man,
it's just, it's definitely gonna be different...
not seeing the 6'8" man in the villa no more.
-Fuck, man!
-I want to walk out with you, bro.
They're gonna let me walk out with you?
-Are you leaving now?
-No. Can't believe that shit happening.
-Want to talk real quick?
Is it okay? Just, like, right here.
Can I borrow him for, like, two seconds? Sorry.
-* Would we be better off by now? *
-I just want to, like, apologize.
And I hope that there's, like, no bad blood, okay?
-There's no bad blood. Trust me.
-Pinkie promise? -Pinkie promise.
-And you can, like, understand why?
-Yes, I can understand why.
No bad blood. Trust me.
-Can I have a hug?
Okay. I'm sorry, babe.
-* Maybe, I guess we'll never know *
-What? -All of us out here.
-Yes! -Everybody, get on my back.
[ Laughter ] -Yeah!
-* Before you go *
-See ya, big dawg. -See y'all.
-Bye! -Bye!
-The man! -Big love!
-* If only I'd have known... *
-It was -- It was real early days in there.
I feel like I didn't really have enough time, honestly.
I don't feel upset.
I mean, she's -- she's entitled to feel
how she wants to feel about her emotions.
I feel like she made the best decision for herself.
If I done it again differently,
I would probably explore more options.
-* Before you go *
-Tomorrow night...
-Like, I'm fucking pissed.
-...recoupling repercussions.
-You kind of played me. -There's some animosity here.
-How you acted was a bit disrespectful.
Don't do that. I don't like it.
[ Man vocalizing ]
