NARRATOR: Previously on "Love Island USA."
One romance...
There are just these signs that I'm seeing
that he can't handle me.
But, he's chatting to Phoebe.
Oh, fuck.
NARRATOR: ...bit the dust.
Do you have any chapstick on you by chance?
-No. You wanna kiss? -That would be nice, huh?
[lips smacking]
Which one would you rather do, hard or long?
Nice.
I just feel like we are on different pages.
As much as I don't want to be.
***
NARRATOR: Tonight...
The boys decisions...
I would like to couple up with this girl.
NARRATOR: ...send one girl...
Uh.
NARRATOR: ...home.
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
[Love Island theme song playing]
NARRATOR: Welcome to "Love Island USA,"
the recoupling is about to begin.
Each boy must decide who to recouple with.
The girl who isn't chosen
will be dumped from the Island immediately.
First to choose is Timmy.
[F. Jaehn feat. J. Thompson's "Ain't Nobody" playing]
* The next thing I felt was you *
* Holding me close *
I want to couple up with this girl
because our dynamic has been growing ever since I met her.
It's something really special to me.
I really care about this girl a lot.
She makes me feel cool, sexy, funny.
* I've been wait for you, it's been so long *
Recently, I made it exclusive with her.
I feel so amazing about that.
I'm very excited to continue to grow with this girl.
And she deserves the world.
* You gave me freedom, you knew I could not resist *
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
* And now we're flyin' through the stars *
* I hope this night will last forever *
Baby Z.
* Ain't nobody loves me better *
* Makes me happy *
* Makes me feel this way *
* Ain't nobody loves me better than you *
NARRATOR: Next to go is Jesse.
I would like to couple up with this girl because
since she came into my life
I feel like I found my best friend.
This girl not only knows how to make smile,
but she knows how to make everybody else smile.
I feel like we are
just starting to hit our stride through this journey
and I want to continue this ride outside the villa.
I don't how I could live life without her.
[Jeff whistles]
Sounds like he's going to propose.
[Kelson's "The Heart Wants What it Wants" playing]
* The heart wants what it wants *
You know, it's been a very rocky road.
But, you know, I think through all the hurdles,
all the challenges we have faced,
it just made us stronger.
And I wouldn't trade it for nothing else.
* The heart wants what it wants *
So, the girl I would like to couple up is...
Deb.
[Islanders cheering]
***
NARRATOR: Up next is Jeff.
I would like to couple up with this girl because
walking into the villa I didn't know what to expect.
And then this Latina
came in here and she-- she caught my eye at first glance.
I feel like I let my guard down.
You know I always say I change my ways and shit,
but I'm willing to do that for her.
That shit sounds crazy but I'm trying to learn Spanish for her.
[girls giggling]
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
Nadjha.
[Islanders cheering]
[Alex Nova's "We're Going to Get it Right" playing]
-That was so fucking cute. -Thanks.
* This time, I'm gonna get it right *
-That was some good Spanish. -Yes.
-Skills A1. -I know. Thank you.
NARRATOR: Now for Isaiah, who's coupled up with Phoebe.
But has had a romantic connection with Sydney
since day one.
I would like to couple up with this girl.
She really did make me feel like Zay
in a way that I can't really explain.
She makes me feel like I can be myself.
She definitely makes me a better man.
We've been through a whole lot of bullshit.
And I'm just glad that
this girl was able to give me a second chance
to show her how much I really do care for her.
And fuck that day bed.
I'm glad to be in a fucking bed with this girl finally too.
So-- [chuckles]
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
Sydney.
* I'm all about you *
* Baby *
* I'm all about you *
Still sleeping on the day bed. I'm just kidding.
* I'm all about you *
[Jasmine Ash & Paul Whitehead's "Your Only Survival" playing]
NARRATOR: Single boy Joel is up next.
He's been chatting with both Phoebe and Courtney.
* Find what is true in the vine *
I would like to couple up with this girl because...
* Feels so empty inside *
not only is she beautiful, but every time we talk,
I feel that our conversations are genuine
and I would be a fool not to explore that further.
And see if I can find that connection.
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
***
Phoebe.
* Fight the sky *
* Your only survival *
* Right the wrongs *
* And go down in a spiral*
* Oh, you'll wreck it all *
NARRATOR: So, it all comes down to Chad,
who's coupled up with Courtney.
But has been talking to Phoebe and Mackenzie.
Whoever he doesn't pick will immediately be dumped.
I want to couple up with this girl because she's dope.
You know, I've just felt comfortable
around this particular girl.
This girl is very beautiful inside and out.
This girl has a lot to offer.
You know, their good energy, their good vibe.
And I think, you know, they do elevate,
you know, people.
They're just-- they're just nice to everybody.
I-- I-- I value that a lot.
You know I think it's right for me to explore further.
[ANNALIA's "Cycles" playing]
* Back and forth and it's always changing *
* Over and over again *
So, the girl I would like to couple up with is...
* Back and forth and it's always changing *
* Over and over again *
Mackenzie.
* It's all in cycles *
* I wish I could hate you *
* But I could only stay mad for so long *
* Then, it's a spiral *
* 'Cause if I forgive you, I don't think I'd ever move on *
* It's all in cycles *
* Can't help myself *
***
[cellphone chiming]
[Avery Lynch feat. JORDY's "When It Ends" playing]
Bye.
* I guess we've come to realize *
* That just because we want it doesn't mean it's right *
Courtney, she is just the most genuine person I have ever met.
She was just a huge part of my happiness in here.
So...
Yeah.
You did so good in here.
Yeah.
I wasn't even expecting to get emotional, but it's so sad.
Like, we came into this together.
She's been there with all of us since day one
and it's going to be really hard.
She's definitely going to be missed.
Bye, Syd.
I love you too.
-I did. -Love you, [indistinct].
Love you, too.
-You did a great job here. -Thank you.
-A lot of respect for you. -Thank you.
* You're perfect *
* You're everything good but in a person *
Thank you.
Honestly, I am sad to see Courtney leave.
I couldn't I guess, give her exactly what she wanted.
But you know, I wasn't going to
take away somebody else's opportunity
to find a connection here away
because of the fact of keeping Courtney on,
when she has had her time here.
But I'm excited to keep getting to know Mackenzie.
I think that, you know, there could be potential possibly.
* I think the worst part of goodbye *
We love you.
* Is that I won't get to call and make sure you're all right *
* It's hard to know if this is right *
It's okay.
* When I can't go a day without you on my mind *
* How *
* How did you do this me? *
* You want to make me forget what's best for me *
I love you too. It was my time, though.
I'm so, so proud of her.
I know truly, to my core,
that she came here looking for something genuine.
And she gave it her absolute all.
It just sucks that she didn't find the love
she came here looking for.
But, I'm really thankful to have met all of you.
I loved my connection with Chad
but, like, we were just on different pages, you know?
-I'm going to miss your hugs. -Thank you, sexy.
Bye. Bye.
-Bye, Courtney. -Bye.
I'm so thankful to have met all of you.
And I hope you have an amazing rest of your time here.
-Oh. -Love you, Courtney.
We love you Courtney.
[Islanders cheering]
* What if *
* We didn't care for just a moment? *
* We let ourselves say the things we shouldn't *
* Cause those are the words *
* That'll make it harder when it ends *
* But you're perfect *
* You're everything good but in a person *
I feel sad to be leaving of course.
But at the same time,
I'm just a person who knows my worth
so it's hard for me to settle.
I'm just really thankful for this whole experience.
And for the people I've met.
The biggest lesson I've learned
is to live in the present moment.
And the love I want is loyal,
genuine and pure.
* Cause you're worth it *
* Cause it's worth it *
[Love Island theme song playing]
* I'm feeling like a warm breeze *
* I don't want it to escape me *
* But I know I'm moving on *
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Courtney is gone, but she should be proud.
She made it all the way to the eve
of the eve of the eve of the eve
of the eve of the eve of the final.
And you don't get much closer than that.
And Phoebe is just delighted to still be here.
How do you feel?
I feel good.
Like, I've been, like, wanting to just, like, feel wanted.
And, like, this is the first time I've been in the villa,
where, like, I feel, like, wanted.
-Do you know what I mean? -Yeah.
-So, like thank you. -Of course.
You know, I'm glad I could make you feel wanted
and I'm excited to get to know you more.
And see if we can make some spark.
Same.
You know, we'll just take it day by day.
I feel really good about my decision
to pick Phoebe and stick with her.
You know, her and I had, you know,
a really great, easy conversation.
And we're ready to see what happens.
I feel like I have the opportunity
to have a chance to try to build something.
So, I'm really excited about that.
-You know what I mean? -Yeah, absolutely.
Cause I came in with fucking Isaiah.
And we all know how that panned out.
And like, I'm so happy I have a person I can, like, talk to.
Like, that is on my side. Holy fuck.
I don't really know what me and Joel can be.
But I do know that, like, we do have conversations
and they are comfortable and we do laugh.
And like, he did end up choosing me tonight.
So, I kind of just want to ride it out
and just, like, see what happens.
-No pressure. -I know.
We are just going to enjoy the moment.
Enjoy our time here.
And if-- if something happens, then that's all the more better.
I agree.
The man of the hour.
The man with the power. Chad.
I liked that introduction.
That was good. Yeah, that was good.
Come on, man. Rightfully so.
Me and Phoebe did kiss before the recoupling.
-Oh, shit. -Wait, today?
-Yeah. -Damn.
-Right before the recoup? -Yeah.
I was like, "Do you have any chapstick?"
She was like, "No. But you can kiss me."
I said, "Sure," you know, I'm not going to--
Honestly, 'cause her lips had chapstick.
-No, it was just a service. -She was really helping me out.
That's what everybody does, bro. That's what everybody does.
She was being a--
If Timmy wanted Chapstick, I would tell him to fuck off.
Yeah. That's right.
-Right. Right. Right. -Yeah.
Realistically, I'm definitely going to tell Mackenzie
for sure, I think.
Yeah, I think if you figure out
what that kiss really is about with Phoebe,
then you'll-- I mean, that'll steer the ship, bro.
'Cause I don't know how torn you are
between Mackenzie and Phoebe.
'Cause like, if you are still trying to get to know both,
-equally-- -That was my plan.
-That's your plan right now? -Yeah, to get to know both.
But you're just leaning towards Phoebe more?
Yeah, I was going to lean towards Phoebe more.
That kiss with Phoebe was kinda something
that was in the making for a minute.
But out of respect for that,
me and Mackenzie are going to be sharing a bed.
I will put our time, you know, first.
I think she just wanted to give me some chapstick, you know.
That's some shit.
That's interesting.
Interesting technique, you know.
-Yeah. -There are other ways,
but, like, I do understand, just you know.
Sometimes you just running short, man.
And, like, got to be resourceful.
What was I going to do,
sit there and have dry ass lips? No.
Do you know what flavor it was? Was it--
-It was good flavor. -Good flavor, okay.
Whatever flavor it was, I enjoyed the flavor.
It tasted good flavor.
Good flavor, okay.
NARRATOR: Zeta's in tears.
I'm guessing it is either
because she's lost her best friend,
or her hay fever tablets.
My money's on hay fever tablets.
Those flowers are a nightmare.
[groaning]
I hate it.
I want to get my tear ducts removed.
Tear ducts.
Can you imagine me in the surgery table, like--
[both laughing]
Yeah, Timmy, I don't know.
It's like, you comforting me,
It just makes me feel [indistinct]
just like, what I really wanted in a boy.
-Mmhmm. -Mmhmm.
-I don't know, you're just-- -In tough times,
a little comfort, just being sweet and nice.
I've already, like, been a softy but you're making it worse.
You know, I don't really like to show my cards but--
I have my own cards. Let's collab.
Put them together.
I'm so into you.
So, into you. That really how you feel?
I feel so strongly about Timmy.
Just how he was with me tonight.
It was just so special.
It just put me in that place
of, like, "I'm going to go through things in life,
"and this boy's going to be there."
It's just the feeling that
you've looked for your whole life.
It's really powerful.
I'm a confident dude
but you give me a different--
different level of confidence.
-Mmm, Timmy. -I feel good.
What am I going to do with you?
Just do what you've been doing.
* Wherever our road leads to *
* You know I will be standing by your side *
* Until the end of time I give you all of mine *
* All my everything *
I'm so happy to be here with you.
NARRATOR: Some people can take a secret
all the way to the grave.
Sadly, Isaiah could only take a secret
all the way to the kitchen.
I guess Phoebe and Chad
kissed before the recoupling tonight.
[gasps]
-Really? -Yeah.
I knew it.
Okay so, me and Phoebe did kiss today.
You guys kissed today?
-Yeah. -When?
Before the recoupling.
Oh, shit.
But I just wanted to tell you that
so that you wouldn't hear it from her.
That was really considerate of you.
'Cause it definitely could have come up in the dressing room.
So, I appreciate you letting me know.
So, I didn't find out, like, there.
I really just, like, always appreciate
when people are up front and honest, yeah.
Like I very much want him to feel like
he can explore with Phoebe.
They have a physical connection already.
But, I'm just excited to just go at our own pace
and just get to know each other.
Regardless, then we will get along well
because it kind of the name of my game here--
It's just literally saying whatever is, like, the case.
-Yeah. -You know?
No, I can tell you are that way.
[Ella Eyre's "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" playing]
* Not a word from your lips *
* You just took for granted *
* That I want to skinny dip *
I'm going to miss her, bro.
Oh, I cannot cope.
-Yeah. Yeah. -I know.
Courtney was here from the beginning.
She was an OG with you all.
She literally made everybody's day, always.
* So, come on, baby, won't you show some class *
* Why do you have to move so fast *
I'm all booed up now.
I'm all booed up for sure now.
Who taught him to say that in Spanish?
-Was it you? -Jeff did it all on his own.
He came in here, wanting that.
And I think he's found it.
[Nadjha laughing]
* We don't have to take our clothes off *
Sydney, you are finally back with Isaiah.
I get a bed.
Did you and Chad kiss?
It wasn't a kiss.
Don't worry, he told me.
-He was like "I need chapstick." -Wait, When was this?
It was like in our two second conversation.
-He's like-- -Today?
Yeah, before I talked to Joel.
I think you were very into Chad.
And I think something that held you back
was that you really liked Courtney.
You really respected what they had.
So, I think you held back.
-Yeah, I did. -Exactly.
So, now that he's...
coupled up with Mackenzie and it's clearly fresh and new.
-Okay. I do exist. -No, no, no. I'm saying, like--
I know, but Nadjha, like, I get what you're saying
but, like, I don't feel like there is an acknowledgement
-that I have been into Chad. -Right.
I hear that you guys have a connection.
I'm just saying, like, it has hurt my feelings a bit.
-Right. -I just want
an opportunity to get to know him.
Yeah, of course, and I wa--
I genuinely want that opportunity for you as well.
[Ella Eyre's "We Don’t Have to Take Our Clothes Off”]
* We could dance and party all night *
Okay.
Yeah.
* We don't have to take our clothes off *
-Oh! -Ooh!
-Good night. -Good night.
* We don't have to take *
* Our clothes off, no *
* To have a good time *
* Oh oh *
* And we could dance *
* And party all night *
* And drink some sherry wine *
* Oh *
[Love Island theme song]
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA.”
Courtney’s gone with nothing more than memories
and some plastic bottles with their name on them.
Uh, they’re not dishwasher friendly, Courtney.
And after last night’s recoupling,
the new couples are Phoebe and Joel,
Mackenzie and Chad,
Nadjha and Jeff,
Jesse and Deb,
Sydney and Isaiah,
Zeta and Timmy.
[LaLa Rose's "Say My Name”]
* Oh, nobody do it like me *
* Oh, one of a kind, yeah *
What's up, babe?
* I got you mesmerizing *
* Say my name *
* If you want it *
* Better say my name *
* Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah *
Hey there, lover.
Oh!
[growling]
* I’ll leave ya chasing *
How are you feeling, Mackenzie?
Funny like being surrounded
on either side by, like, very, like, loved up couples
and, like, a brand new couple.
* Oh, one of a kind *
Well, I feel like my skin has gotten just so ugh, here.
My skin is so bad.
My skin usually like glows.
Honestly, actually. Never mind.
I think it’s maybe ‘cause I haven’t had sex.
* Say my name *
And you feel-- feeling pretty good about Mackenzie?
I’m excited to, uh, get to know her
without having like, any, like, reservations in my mind.
-Right. -You know, we don’t
have to, like, force and rush shit.
-Yeah. -We just
kinda just let it go how it is going to go.
Phoebe and I talked last night
and she said that y’all shared a kiss.
[birds chirping]
Phoebe, I think Chad was-- Would’ve picked you.
-Do you think so? -One hundred-- I think so.
I still want that to happen
because I feel like me and Chad
could like be really fun here and like together.
I think Joel’s just like,
he’s a little too...
Like too mature.
I was expecting her to, you know,
to let you know and tell you that.
‘Cause I wasn’t gonna be the person to...
after a fucking recoupling
and I come on to you like, "Hey, you know--
-By the way. -"We just kissed.”
Like, yeah. Like, no fuck that.
I’m not about to do that shit.
And obviously, you know, it wasn’t like...
You know, we were making love on the couch,
-You know what I’m saying? -Yeah.
It was a small little kiss.
I just like need Chad
to like, tell me up front,
like what-- what his deal is with me.
So, I’m coupled up with Joel
and I promised myself today
I would have a clean slate and just go for it.
But I do have a stronger connection with Chad,
so I wanna make sure that even though he is
coupled up with Mackenzie, he’s still open
because I’m still open
to further exploring
the connection we’ve been building the past couple days.
Is that something that you’re still looking
to possibly pursue?
Yeah, I still want to continue to get to know her.
For sure, you know, um, ‘cause me and Phoebe
did also kind of, you know, connect the points.
Yeah, I definitely wanna be respectful,
but I also want to just like, just get after it, you know?
You know, I trust in the process and, uh,
we just kinda just let it go how it’s going to go.
You know, in whatever direction that may be.
Right.
[Love Island theme song]
NARRATOR: So after the last 24 hours,
the question on everyone’s lips is:
does Chad see Phoebe as girlfriend material
or just as a giant human chapstick dispenser?
Big night, last night.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, it was.
-Definitely. -Yeah.
I’ve kind of just been confused
with the whole situation last night
because I didn’t really--
We didn’t really get to speak.
I kind of just laid a kiss on you
and then walked away.
-[laughing] -Um--
-Which I did enjoy by the way. -Yeah.
I just-- I-- like, I don’t really know...
like...
what you’re thinking to be completely honest.
Let’s put it this way.
Like I’m not gonna hold back with like
being like open with you.
-Mm-hmm. -[laughing]
-Score. -[laughing]
[Love Island theme song]
Sydney, how was last night?
-Yeah, you are back. -How was--
Yeah, it was really fun.
Do you think he was excited to be back in bed with you--
Yeah, we hadn’t slept on the bed together in like-- in a--
-In a minute. -Yeah.
In like a while.
Like since Mady was here
was the last time we had shared a bed.
-Oh wow! -Yeah.
Just excited to grow in our journey.
Like, I feel like we’re very much still blossoming,
but in a good way, you know?
My first night back in bed with Isaiah was really nice.
I really missed it, so I’m really glad
that we are like back in a couple together
and we’re just like growing every single day.
So, I’m super, super excited.
It’s definitely like still major fireworks,
which is really nice.
Who would’ve thought, y’all?
[laughing]
-Bae. -Bae.
Not yet. Ooh!
-Hello, governor. -Oh, you did?
Uh!
[giggling]
I can’t remember the last time I shared a bed with boy.
Really? You can’t remember that?
It has to have been like months and months and months.
-Yeah. -Was it okay?
No, it was good. You’re a big guy.
-Yeah. -Like a big--
and it was like, "Wow! It’s like cozy."
Mm-hmm. That’s fun. Okay, good. Yeah. No, it was really good.
I think the thing with Chad is
I feel super safe with him and I’m excited to see
if that safeness can be translated
into something a little more romantic.
I think as of right now,
like I’m-- I’m really enjoying my time with him for sure.
How are you feeling this morning?
Are you at all like--
This is like the least stressed out I’ve felt though
like the past, like, five days.
Yeah, it kind of worked out perfectly for the both of us,
the situation, because,
where my head is at
and like my experience and everything, like,
I might have been like the best person for you
to ultimately be coupled up with.
-You know what I mean? -Yeah.
Does Jeff always just sleep there all day?
He’s there often. Yeah.
[phone beeps]
Of course I do. I got a text!
-No, you didn’t! -Swear to God.
You’re lying.
Bro, I did bro.
-[laughing] -Read it!
Ew!
[cheering and clapping]
Yeah. Right on.
-Wow! -Spit in my mouth.
Very afraid to be yakked on hearing this news. So.
-I have a really clean mouth. -I believe you.
-[laughing] -Your mouth looks great.
It really does.
Who wants to gargle food and just
throw it through another fucking person’s mouth
and throw it into a cup.
That’s weird.
This is the most terrified I’ve been
in the past, like 30 days.
I just don’t have, like, a fear of these things.
I do, so we’re really gonna have--
You’re gonna have to like motivate me now--
-Carry the team. -And help me through.
[Love Island theme song]
[cheering]
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
It’s challenge time.
Get ready for the infamous "dine-and-dash."
Guess who’s winning?
NARRATOR: The couples must move a seven course meal
from one side of the course
to the other using only their mouth.
NARRATOR: The couple that transfer
the most food fastest wins,
while we all watch and lose.
-Yeah. -I’m so nervous.
NARRATOR: On the menu:
clam chowder in a bread bowl,
chili French fries,
strawberry milkshake,
mac and cheese,
spaghetti,
churros dipped in chocolate syrup,
chocolate lava cake.
I get car sick.
NARRATOR: Disengage that gag reflex for your first course,
clam chowder in a bread bowl.
On your marks,
get set, blow chunks.
* If you wanna take some, take a break *
Timmy likes clam chowder.
When that thing got in my mouth...
it tasted like throw up on bread.
* But not as much as I know *
Ew, ew, ew.
I can't, I can't.
Isaiah has the bigger mouth.
You can put a whole lot of shit in there.
No, I’m not happy about what just happened.
* I’m locked, loaded *
* Know that you can’t win *
Me and Joel actually really enjoyed
the taste of the clam chowder.
-We love clam chowder. -We love it. Yes.
-That’s it! -Ew!
Isaiah, that was a big piece.
Absolutely atrocious.
[horn blowing]
That tastes like [indistinct].
NARRATOR: Chili French fries coming right up
your wind pipe.
-Ew! -Oh!
It looked like dog poo.
* A girl like you *
-Mm-mm. -[sobbing]
* If not, I understand *
I think I peed my pants a little.
* Uh, uh baby *
Eat that.
I had to chew it up a little bit and then feed her.
-Like a bird. -[laughing]
* All right *
Having chili in your fucking mouth
already is disgusting like
when you’re not about to eat it.
And then having to put it into another person’s mouth.
-Yeah. -No that was-- that wasn’t dope.
-Mm-hmm. -[giggling]
Don’t throw up.
-[giggling] -Don’t do it.
[giggling]
Like two pigs in a trough.
Are you calling me a pig?
I knew that was gonna happen.
[laughing]
[cheering and laughing]
Oh, my God! What the fuck?
Ugh!
NARRATOR: Our strawberry milkshake brings
all the hurls to the yard.
Come on, Timmy!
Well done. Well done. Well done. Well done.
Good job everybody.
* Stand clear *
The milkshake, I almost threw up.
That one was awful.
-Go on. Go on. -Ew!
That is not a milkshake!
One thing that-- that kind of threw us
was there were so many chunks in it.
The chunks. Chunk, chunk, chunk.
And I’m like, "Just go, go, go.”

[horn blowing]
We struggled with that one.
That was so gross.
Dude, it got all over me.
I’ll lick it all off too.
That one wasn’t that bad.
NARRATOR: Now serving Mac and cheese, or yak and cheese.
[screaming]
* I only came in here to dominate it *
* You stand clear *
-You gave me one noodle. -[giggling]
Mac and cheese, like to me,
it is just like slimy, gooey, bro.
I can’t-- I don’t fuck with that shit.
You have to give me more than one noodle.
* I only came here to dominate *
It was really bad for Jeff.
Bro.
-Fuck! Disgusting! -No! Fine.
[laughing]
Why she giggling?
‘Cause I feel so bad for you.
Yeah. I feel crazy right now.
You got it.
* Yeah, like corn on the cob, nut butter and onion rings *
-[coughing] -Oh no!
-Oh! -Are you okay?
-Save me. -[horn blowing]
NARRATOR: Next up is churros dipped in--
I mean, who cares if it’s gonna end up on the floor?
[BTS's "Butter”]
Churros was actually I think
the easiest to transfer ‘cause they all stuck together
‘cause of the chocolate sauce.
* Smooth like butter *
* Like a criminal undercover *
* Gon' pop like trouble *
* Breakin' into your heart like that (Ooh) *
I would fit my mouth the most I could
and then I would squeeze it
so I could like compress it for her mouth.
Don’t put that many.
I put like ten of them thangs in my mouth.
-Yeah. -She couldn’t take it all.
-Oh! -[laughing]
Joel was like, "You know, I’m just gonna put
"all the sticks in my mouth.”
Right away, I was just thinking like, "Dicks!”
These are the Costco microwave ones.
NARRATOR: I hope they left room for the chocolate lava cake.
Wow! Oh shit!
* Pull you in like no other *
-Go, go, go, go, go. -Have fun.
Isaiah and Sydney, just nasty.
Sicko.
Sicko. Real sickos.
-Oh my God! -Huh!
Okay. This is my strategy. My face like a tray.
They’re just got everything all over them
and they’re sitting there just still snogging, ew!
* (Yeah) We gon' make you bounce and you say (Yeah) *
-Who’s bigger? -It’s mine for sure.
* Get it, let it roll *
-[horn blowing] -[cheering and clapping]
NARRATOR: The challenge team are feeling pretty smug
about how that went.
NARRATOR: Well, wait until they see
what they’re having for dinner.
The winners of Dine and Dash are...
Phoebe and Joel.
-[upbeat instrumental] -[cheering and clapping]
-Yay! -We won baby!
Oh!
Joel and Phoebe cheated for sure.
Their wheels were greasier.
[laughing]
Let’s clean up and head back to the villa.
-Let’s go. -[cheering]
[Love Island theme song]
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Back at the beach, a load of half chewed food
is being fought over by seagulls and unemployed actors,
while here in the villa there’s a cause for celebration.
I can’t believe nobody threw up during that challenge.
That was crazy.
I’m lit I didn't.
I was just telling him to shove it in his mouth
and put it on my face.
[laughing]
-[phone beeping] -Ah!
I got a text!
-Oh my God! -Ooh!
-Oh, shit. -Ooh!
-Yay! -[cheering]
-Party, party, party! -It's a party. It’s a party.
I’m gonna wear some leg warmers.
NARRATOR: It’s a very special treat.
Tonight, our Islanders are traveling all the way back
to the ‘80s, where much of my material comes from.
Sheesh!
I look like David Bowie’s sister.
I don’t know who that is.
This is really what they wore in the ‘80s, bro?
Zay has teleported back to the ‘80s
and he is ready to show these fucking kids his moves.
-I cannot believe. -We gotta bring it back.
[Schwarzenegger impression] Get to the chopper. Come on!
What are you waiting for? Do it.
[laughing]
[A-ha's "Take On Me”]
We’re going back to the ‘80s.
* I'll be coming for your love, okay? *
* Take on me (take on me) *
* Take me on (take on me) *
* I'll be gone *
I don’t know anything about the '80s.
I was born in the 21st century.
***
‘80s night.
You know what I’m saying? The ladies were out.
Ah! The good old days.
Shout out to the ladies in the '80s.
[cheering]
[Run D.M.C. "It’s Tricky”]
* To rock a rhyme to rock a rhyme *
* That's right on time it's tricky *
* Tr-tr-tr-tricky tricky *
* I met this little girlie *
* Her hair was kinda curly *
* Went to her house and bust her out *
* I had to leave real early *
* These girls are really sleazy *
* All they just say is please me *
* Or spend some time and rock a rhyme *
* Said it's not that easy *
* It's tricky, tr-tr-tr-tricky tricky *
I just feel cool.
It’s just like how I look in sunglasses
so why would I not wear them at night too.
NARRATOR: The girls are about to have a frank discussion
and trust me, sparks are going to fly.
Nobody’s arguing.
It’s just the static of those
cheap taffeta prom dresses.
Yeah. How’s it going with Joel?
-I really can’t. -Oh no!
Like as of right now, like I have
more of a connection with Chad than I do with Joel.
-Really? -Mm-hmm.
And it’s like, it’s just more of like a physical one
than I have with Joel, right?
What are you gonna do? You gonna like--
I'm gonna pull Chad for a chat.
You got us right here.
I decided to have a mission:
to get Chad alone with no interruptions.
Joel not coming up to me and Mackenzie being distracted.
I get a little frisky when I know there’s a party,
so maybe I’ll turn it up a little bit.
God, girl! You have hella levels to this shit.
[laughing]
NARRATOR: Two minutes of the ‘80s was plenty.
Apparently, some people lived through ten years of them.
No wonder they’re so angry.
Still, Jeff’s a huge fan of the giant purple arm puff.
You look so good, baby.
Oh, no I don’t. But, thank you.
Like, every day, I just feel natural
and just like, we being ourselves now
and growing every day.
-We just flow. -We really do.
-We do baby. -Yeah.
Jeff, every single day like, I just like him more and more.
And like, we’re just both on the same page
with a lot of things.
I know it’s still early in this stuff but...
falling for you is like-- like a big step type of shit.
[upbeat piano music]
Do you really think you’re falling like in love with me.
[Morgan Harper-Jones' "I Wanna Dance With Somebody”]
* I've been all right up to now *
* It's the light of day *
* That shows me how *
I am.
I am falling for you, baby.
I think I’m falling for you for sure.
Stop. I’ll cry.
[laughing]
Stop. Don’t tell me that right now!
No, for real like, baby, you mean so much to me.
-Promise. -I mean it this shit.
-Pinky promise me. -I mean this shit.
I mean this shit.
In every way.
-Really? -And I hope it’s the same.
It is.
* Oh, I wanna dance with somebody *
I’m falling for you too, Jeff.
* I wanna feel the heat with somebody *
-You’re so cute. -Like emotionally, mentally.
* Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody *
I’m falling for her.
* With somebody who loves me *
We're really growing man.
I’m saying shit I’ve never said before.
* Don't you wanna dance *
It’s definitely amazing, bro.
* With somebody who loves me *
-Oh my God! -[giggling]
[Love Island theme song]
NARRATOR: If you’re just joining us now,
before the ad break, Mackenzie and Joel
were asked to dress up in what they would wear
if they were invited to an Amish wedding.
So, how are you feeling?
I’m feeling good, you know?
Um, I feel like the competition really increased
the-- the chemistry between Phoebe and I,
um, which was fun and like, you know,
fun to experience someone
who has the same competitive fire that I do
and really just like bond over that.
It was a good day.
How are you feeling about Chad?
How is that all that going?
-I think it’s going good. -Yeah?
-I really like being around him. -Yeah?
Just feels-- Like he just makes me feel
really at ease, really comfortable.
People come into your life at a certain time
and they are meant to be there
and you’re meant to learn something from them
or gain something from that connection.
And I think that Chad and I both truly have
gained something from our connection together.
I think everything has played out
the way that it was meant to play out.
Today just brought us like closer together.
-Yeah. -The-- the challenge and--
-Come here. -Shit!
[Tove Styrke's "Hardcore”]
* I could be all you need *
* All your wild fantasies *
* Look at this body *
* Sweeter than honey *
Do you feel that Phoebe is
a threat to you and him or do you--
I don’t see Phoebe as a threat.
* Losing my mind *
* And I won't ever *
* Let you go *
* Baby, it's all *
* Hardcore *
* Go, make my heart *
You know, you guys are so different
that it’s really gonna come down
to what he wants.
Yeah.
* Baby, it's only one life right now *
We need to chat at least once a day.
-Absolutely. -I love your loafers.
-Thank you. -I just noticed them.
-Thank you. -They’re nice.
-I appreciate. -I really enjoyed them.
-[laughing] -There we go.
* Go, make my heart explode *
* I want you hardcore *
* Baby, it's yeah-yeah, hardcore *
* Yeah-yeah, hardcore *
Ooh! Sorry. Hi.
-Hey. -Oh, hi.
-Hello. How are you? -Hi.
Hey.
