* You turn me on like a light switch *
* When you movin' your body around and around *
NARRATOR: Previous on "Love Island USA".
Baby Z.
Sydney.
NARRATOR: An emotional recoupling...
Mackenzie.
NARRATOR: ... had goodbyes...
NARRATOR: ... and reunions.
We've come a long way in six days.
I'm more than happy
that my heart led me to you, Syd.
NARRATOR: And an '80s party saw battle commence.
Oh, shit.
* You got me on a tight grip *
This is more than friendship from me, so...
-You talk with Joel? -Mm-hmm.
* I don't want to fight this *
-Oh, sorry. Hi. -Hey.
Oh, hi.
***
NARRATOR: Tonight...
... tensions rise.
Chad has very much downplayed his feeling
towards you, Phoebe.
I think it's a little unfair for you to say
he downplayed his feelings towards me.
How is that not fair, Phoebe? I'm looking out for you.
I would want to know that to someone else
he's not saying the same thing.
To the someone else who he knows is interested in him.
Let's play, Let's face it.
NARRATOR: And tweet...
So, the full tweet is...
Blank is faking it with Blank.
Oh, that is fucked up.
This is about to get real.
NARRATOR: ... leads to trouble.
Oh, my fucking God.
For him to sit out there and get annoyed at me...
Did he?
He was, like, all pissed.
Oh.
***
* Get ready, here we go now *
NARRATOR: Welcome to "Love Island USA".
Phoebe knows the way to a man's heart
is through his stomach.
I'm not sure the tongue is going to reach that far
but she's giving it a damn good try.
Luckily Mackenzie is about to interrupt
before Phoebe's tongue gets tangled up
in Chad's lower intestine.
Oh, sorry. Hi.
-Hey. -Oh, hi.
Hello. How are you?
-Hi! -Hey.
Perfect timing, right? Of course.
***
Did you have a good night?
Yeah. Yeah, I had a--
I had a fun night.
Bro, it is cold as balls.
I'm getting a sweatshirt.
I need a sweatshirt.
Um, I did just kiss Chad.
Needed to put that out there.
I kind of just sat here and kissed him.
Okay, I love you.
I just had to tell you because
that was really awkward. And I just came--
-It was awkward. -Yeah, exactly.
But I was like, "Uh,
-I'm just gonna come back in. -Good for you, though, girl.
Okay, thank you.
I'm gonna go shove grilled cheese in my mouth.
-Cool, when you encounter it-- -[cellphone chimes]
-Who was it? -I got a text!
-Oh! -Oh, shit.
Oh, no.
Islanders, the Hideaway is open tonight.
Please pick one couple to spend a night alone together.
#GetARoom #PullYourselvesTogether.
Jess and Deb.
Yay!
Going into the hideaway, man.
-I'm stoked. -Yeah!
It's '80s night. You will get frisky and disky.
It's been a long time coming, you know.
We worked very hard
just figuring each other's love language out, you know.
I think we've got that part down.
You look so hot.
So, I think now is the perfect time for us
to really get some time alone.
Should I wear cuter shoes?
-Yes. -Crocs?
-No. -Zeta wore heels.
I think it was time.
Like, we've been on this long journey together.
We've grown so much.
I'm just, like-- I'm excited to see
a sense in how each other operates without the villagers.
[knock on the door]
Oh, you look so cute. Oh, my God, the eye mask!
[cheering]
Damn, you all look good.
[shouts of encouragement]
***
-Whoa. -Wow.
This is so cool.
Wow.
You don't have to do--
[Deb laughing]
Oh. Oh, shit.
Ah!
Damn.
Do you work in Vegas?
I'm so turned on right now.
Oh, my gosh.
* Yeah, I feel good tonight *
How are you feeling?
I'm feeling good. How are you?
NARRATOR: After, like, kissing Chad,
Phoebe's, like, pulling Joel for, like, a chat.
And while she doesn't, like, really like Joel,
she, like, really, really likes saying the word like.
Like.
I tried to, like, have, like, a clean slate with everything.
And just, like, really, like, give this a chance.
But there's just, like, something that's just off.
-Okay. -Like, just for me it's, like,
I know when when, like, I, like, want to be touchy with someone.
I know, like, when I want to, like,
feel that way with someone.
And, like, I just don't feel that way with you.
-Okay. -Like, I just, like, feel more
of, like-- I really like talking to you because,
like, you're just, like, an amazing person.
But I don't see it, like, getting to an intimate level.
Okay.
-You know? -Yeah.
-I understand that. -Okay.
-I love you, girl. -Oh, let's stand, let's stand.
I just had to, like, say that.
Because I don't want to, like, lead the situation on.
No. And I appreciate that.
We've had really good conversations
and we laugh, but the sexually intimacy part,
I just can't see myself getting to an intimate level with him.
And Chad better be out there right now ending it
or saying to Mackenzie they're just friends
so I can start cracking on.
I hope things with you and Chad really work out.
We'll see.
***
Um, I know that Courtney was super physical.
Like, that was her love language, basically.
And even Phoebe's pretty forward.
And, like, obviously as you can tell I'm not that way.
I don't want you to think I'm any less interested in you
because I'm not, like--
-Yeah, I get it. -on top of you, kind of thing.
No, I don't look at it that way at all.
I just go at my own pace sort of thing.
This is the first day I think I was actually kind of looking
at you and I was like, "Oh, you know we're in a couple."
-It's kind of crazy. -Yeah, it is crazy.
-Like, it's fun-- -It's fun but it's crazy.
-Yeah. -Yeah, no, I agree.
It's like, I do enjoy that we can be, like, fun.
You know? I mean, as of right now it kida still feels like--
I don't know if I guess the romance part of it is there.
-No, I agree. -Yeah, like-
-I feel the same. -Yeah.
It's kind of how I've been feeling as well,
that I couldn't imagine, like,
being coupled up with anyone else at this point.
Like, with who's all in here.
And, like, I just have so much fun with you.
-Yeah. -But I agree.
Like, I don't know that I'm feeling the romantic side of it.
Yeah.
You know, you can really connect with someone
on a human level
but it doesn't always mean that there's a romantic connection.
And Phoebe said that, you know, they kissed
and that she really feels a spark with him.
And I'm really happy for them, you know?
I never wanted to force something
and I think everything has played out the way
that it was meant to play out.
But I also think that people come into your life
for a reason sort of thing.
And I do feel like--
Regardless I feel like there is--
Yeah. We're gaining something from knowing one another.
Absolutely.
I feel better just because
it was just the right thing to do.
You know, it's good to just put shit out
and just be as honest as possible
so people just don't have to feel weird about shit.
Like, you can just-- like, we're fucking adults.
It is what it is. You know what I'm saying?
Aw, you're the best.
You are, too.
* Coming back from being defeated *
What are you doing? Geeze Louis.
[laughing]
Let's try to handcuff each other blindfolded.
Are we both blindfolded?
-Both blindfolded. -Okay.
All right.
How are we gonna do it at the same time?
It's going to be tough.
Where are you?
I have to find you?
Yeah. I got the cuffs.
Come here, boy.
Come here.
Oh, I got one.
* Ooh, I let the words get the best of me somehow *
Another crazy day in Love Island.
I know.
I think they gonna have a great time.
They are going to, you know, expand they bond.
Almost seven. We almost beat our record.
-You fucked up. -I'm sorry.
* Oh, I let the words get the best of me somehow *
* You know I never want to let you down *
Would you give me a chance if I walked in like this?
This is honestly not bad.
Let's be real.
I'm gonna pee myself.
* You know I never want to let you down *
So, yay/nay?
Do I sleep in the bed with you? Yeah.
I'm gonna make you work.
You can work for me a little harder.
* Never wanna, never wanna, never wanna *
* Let you down *
My God, you're so warm.
* Never wanna, never wanna *
* Never wana let you down *
* Never wanna, never wanna *
* Let you down *
* Never wanna, never wanna, never wanna *
* Let you down *
* Never wanna, never wanna, never wanna *
* Let you down *
***
* I'm so into you *
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA".
It's morning and there were disgusting slapping noises
coming from under the duvet in that Hideaway all night.
Deb and Jesse's game of Patty Cake went on for hours.
* So baby, come light me up *
* A little less conversation *
* And a little more touch my body *
* 'Cause I'm so into you *
* Into you, into you *
* And everyone watching us *
* So baby, let's keep this secret *
-Hi, Deb. -Morning.
How'd your sleep?
Good. How did you sleep?
Slept good.
* A little bit scandalous *
* But baby, don't let them see it *
Looking like you're ready to conquer the day.
Always.
You look amazing.
Did you put your contacts in?
[chuckling]
I don't think they're working.
* 'Cause I'm so into you, into you *
Can't wait for Deb to get back.
-Right? And Jesse. -What a night.
What a night.
Maybe we do it again sometime?
-Yeah. -Okay, cool.
Phoebe, did Chad not ask you to sleep on the daybed?
-He did but I said no. -Oh, really?
Like, you need to work a little bit harder 'til we get into bed.
I didn't want it to be, like, that easy.
-What are you talking about? -Yeah.
Phoebe laid one on him in the dressing room.
-Last night? -Yeah.
And then Chad and I friend-zoned each other.
Dang.
So, Phoebe, would you say you and Chad
are, like, going to keep it going?
Yeah. I'm going to continue to get to know him.
And see where that goes.
Mackenzie, I have a question.
Yeah.
What changed?
I just kept feeling the same safe and comfortable
but not, like, excited.
-Right. -Or, like, romantic.
And I just kept on, like, hoping that it would come
and then it just wasn't.
And I just kind of felt like,
"Oh, maybe I'm not really feeling the romantic side
because of the situation with Courtney."
That's just something to be aware of, like, Chad has very
much downplayed his feelings towards you, Phoebe.
And I'm just being honest about that.
I think it's a little unfair for you to say that
he downplayed his feelings towards me
because I don't think he is going to tell you
while he's also friendzoning you
and getting know to you exactly how he feels about me.
Phoebe, he wasn't, like, friendzoning me, though.
We had a conversation.
You can't tell me it's not fair what he did
when you weren't in the conversation--
I'm saying it's not fair for you
to sit in front of everyone and say,
"No offense, but he's downplaying
how he feels towards you."
How is that not fair, Phoebe? I'm looking out for you.
Okay.
In front of me and Sydney and Jeff
he has said how much he likes Phoebe.
I believe you.
And that's why I'm letting you know that
I would want to know that to someone else
he's not saying the same thing.
To the someone else who he knows is interested in him,
he's not saying the same thing.
Yeah, but he didn't downplay his feeling about Courtney.
Okay.
We're home!
Hey!
[cheering and clapping]
It was fantastic.
-Fantastic. -Yeah.
We got to bond away from the other Ilanders.
You know, a successful prom night.
You did say your gonna get to
second base on prom night.
Yeah, I might have slid in.
-To second base. -To second base.
-My God. -Second base.
Bye.
I knew it. I knew it.
-She looks a mess. -Jesse!
She looks a mess.
-Hi! -Hi!
Oh my God, chocolate.
I brought snacks.
Give me.
I didn't get any of this.
Deb, how did it go?
It was good. It was fun.
It was nice just to like--
-Be away. -Yeah.
Let's talk about it, let's talk about it.
When you walked in there, was it, "Wow"?
Wow, wow!
They got the snake print.
They got the pole right there.
Oh, shit.
So?
Any juicy goss from last night?
I got my first kiss after prom.
-Shut up. -Aw!
Best prom ever, huh?
Best prom ever, bro.
You know, there was, like, a box in there,
bro, and I couldn't stop eating. It was like a random box.
We made out and, like,
it's just nice just to hang out by ourselves.
Did you get on the pole?
Jesse did.
[laughter]
It was so funny.
Do you feel like y'all grew your connection?
-Yeah. -Yay.
It was nice. We talked a lot.
You guys just deserved it, you know?
Like, you've been here so long.
-It was time. -It was time,
that's what I was saying.
NARRATOR: Phoebe and Chad are headed off for an audition
to be JLO's backup dancers.
But first she wants to clear the air
about what Mackenzie's been saying.
So, I need to ask you what's going on because
Mackenzie's like, "I just think you need to be careful
because he's, like, downplaying
how he feels towards you a lot
and I would just watch out for that.
Because if a guy that I was interested in
was going around the villa kinda downplaying
how I feel or my situation with me,
that's something I would just, like, keep an eye on."
What am I going go and fucking do?
Tell her, "Oh, yeah, every time I see Phoebe I wanna--"
Exactly. Mackenzie was like,
"When he would about Courtney he would really, like, you know,
say how he feels.
But he doesn't do that with you, Phoebe."
That just pissed me off.
So, I do wanna know like, is there--
is there validity to what she is saying?
For one, I'm sorry that that had to--
-Yeah. -Because that is so unnecessary.
So unnecessary.
I didn't believe a second of it.
Yeah. I just didn't go into depths about
how I rock with you to Mackenzie.
That's literally all I was saying--
-Which I wouldn't want you to. -Wouldn't that be weird?
That's what I'm saying.
Telling her, "Oh my God, I'm fucking--"
I was like, "Watch out? That's a good thing."
I'm pretty irritated by the comments
that Mackenzie made.
I think that was attractive how Phoebe was able to speak up
for herself and kind of confront the situation
instead of just letting it pass by.
I would say the only validity in that is literally just me
not going into deep dark details about my interest in you.
That would be the only validity in that.
***
NARRATOR: Ladies and gentleman,
"Love Island USA" is proud to present: Phoebe says "like,"
Part 2.
I just really want to pull you
because I know, like, in the dressing room,
I, like, kind of, like, confronted you.
You said something about, like, how, like,
"I just want you to be careful because, like,
if a guy was going around kinda downplaying
how he felt about me, like,
that would just be something, like--"
I'm just explain my perspective
based on the way he'd spoken about you to me.
I don't think that you can speak to why Chad
didn't say more about you guys.
But I can. That's the thing.
Like, I know he's not that type of guy.
I don't think that Mackenzie has known Chad long enough
to make any time of conclusions or assumptions
or generalizations about his character.
Like, when someone needs to bring someone else down
to maybe make them feel better,
because they got rejected or whatever,
or friendzoned, I don't do that.
Like, I have known him just genuinely longer.
But Phoebe, you weren't sitting in in our chats.
And this is where, -like-
I know but I'm saying that, like--
But Phoebe, you don't know everything.
You don't know everything.
You have actually come in here
and you literally think that you know everything.
You think you know all about Chad but you don't.
From my perspective, it's disrespectful.
I never said disrespect.
No, you said you disrespected me.
You can ask the girls.
I was telling the girls about it.
And you kind of make me, like, take two steps back.
Nadjha asked me.
I'm telling you how I felt.
Why can't you also understand that?
I do understand how you feel, Phoebe.
But you're trying to make excuses for--
"Nadjha asked me. Nadjha did this."
Phoebe, I'm not going to be attacked by you like this.
I'm not attacking you, though.
You're not listening to what I'm saying.
Nadjha asked me a question and I answered it.
I don't feel as though my actions or my words
are responsible for how she might be feeling.
That's an ego thing. I'm not going to rewrite history
and say that something happened that didn't'.
I said that because you were saying it's disrespectful of you
to bring this up in front of everyone.
-I didn't say that, though. -Yes--
Okay.
[cellphone chimes]
I got a text!
[cheering]
-"Islanders." -Oh, no.
"It's time to find out the online buzz
around your relationships."
-Oh, shit! -Oh, no!
"#JoinTheChat #LetsFaceIt".
Damn.
-Fuck. -Oh, shit.
All I've to say is we are not coming back
as one big happy family.
***
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA".
America, you have been tweeting about the show.
I love Twitter.
NARRATOR: I've enjoyed your message for me.
Although Leon from Pittsburgh,
I will point out, I've tried.
But it's not physically possible for me
to do that to myself.
Oh, you look hot.
* Call me danger, call me trouble *
NARRATOR: And now it's time for the Islanders to find out
what's America been tweeting about them
in today's challenge, Let's Face It.
One at a time, couples will see
a tweet about their fellow Islanders.
"Blank's flying first class,
while blank's in coach cuz she's too good for him."
Oh.
This about to get real.
NARRATOR: They will compete to fill in the blanks
with the person the tweet is really about.
We said Mackenzie and Chad.
We said Jesse and Deb.
We said Sydney and Isaiah.
You know it can look like
she's been upset a few times.
And people may not necessarily like to see that.
Each correct answer scores them a point.
Wow. All right, so...
Zeta's flying first class--
I told you!
-- while Timmy's in coach cuz she's too good for him.
-Damn! -Boo!
I know it's meant to be a positive for me,
so I will take that.
However, he is my person.
And I don't want to hear anything bad about him.
So, he's in first class with me.
I like that it's that way.
Whoever wrote that tweet I'm glad you got reception
in your mother's basement.
I'm really happy for you, bro.
Next tweet.
Blank still has a thing for blank and blank and blank
and blank and blank and blank.
Oh, it could be!
Okay, we went with Mackenzie.
We said Phoebe.
Mackenzie.
And the tweet reads Phoebe.
I knew it!
Damn.
Still has a thing for Isaiah,
Joel, Chad, Jesse, Jeff and Timmy.
I haven't had an easy journey in here, you know.
I had a thing for Isaiah. I had a thing for Chad.
Then I tried Joel.
And now I'm back with Chad.
The people are going to talk.
I thought it was funny.
"Blank, if you know your worth, then why are you going back
to a man that's tried to jump ship on you TWICE now"?
Who did that twice?
Jesse did at the beginning.
Sydney, what'd you come up with?
I said that's a good question.
Maybe I should ask myself that.
I also said myself.
Only because of how I think it has been perceived
that Jesse tried to jump ship with Val and then also Sereniti.
The full tweet is
* Don't rush it, rush it *
Sydney.
"If you know your worth, then why are you going to jump back
to a man that tried to jump ship on you TWICE now"?
This just got really real.
It was bad.
I feel for them.
Okay, this tweet says...
"Blank is faking his strong feelings for blank, he is not
attracted to her emotionally or physically. No one can convince
me that he is."
That's harsh.
Talk your shit.
Is it you?
Maybe.
I think they are talking about Sai and Syd for sure.
Jesse and Deborah.
We said the same thing.
We said Syd and Sai.
LMAO.
"Jesse is faking his strong feelings for Deb."
Shit.
"He is not attracted to her emotionally or physically.
No one can convince me that he is."
Why do you gotta be so harsh on Twitter?
When was this data collected?
I knew Twitter was going to be harsh.
You know, I didn't expect nothing less from them.
All right.
"Finally catching on up on #LoveIslandUSA and it looks like
blank and blank are giving peanut butter & jelly vibes.
Fo sho a perfect match."
We went with Jeff and Nadjha.
We were biased.
We said us.
It's got to be the truth.
Look like Joel and Mackenzie are giving
peanut butter and jelly vibes.
Fo sho a perfect match"!
America, thank you. That's really sweet and cute.
She's the jelly and I'm the peanut butter.
And I seal the edges of the sandwich together
to make it all one cohesive unit.
"Blank is faking it with blank.
She is playing him for a fool."
We said Phoebe is playing Joel.
We also said Phoebe and Joel.
We want to be wrong about this.
But we said ourselves.
Because my head did turn in Casa Amor.
"Nadja is faking it with Jeff. She is playing him for a fool."
I don't what happened at Casa Amor,
like, what she was doing and shit.
But obviously it was enough for her to bring somebody back.
Honestly, fuck those Tweets.
Next Tweet. This tweet reads, "It would suck for blank
to find out blank was comparing to blank's 'natural beauty'."
Oh. That is fucked up.
I have no idea.
-Really? -Yeah.
Mackenzie. Chad.
Phoebe.
You don't think I'm natural? Just kidding.
Sydney, Isaiah and Phoebe.
Okay, we said it would suck if Mackenzie found out
Chad was comparing her to Phoebe's natural beauty.
Goddamnit.
Full tweet reads, "It would suck for...
* I've been trying to let it go? *
Sydney.
"... to find out Isaiah was comparing her to Phoebe's
'natural beauty'."
Oh, my fucking God, bro.
* Tear drops keep on falling *
* Keep on crying 'til they turn off *
It's a shitty feeling.
He didn't comfort me at all.
He was just offensive.
At the end of the day, his actions in Casa Amor
is what is causing this, so...
It's just not a good look.
The winners of Let's Face It are...
Mackenzie and Chad!
[cheering]
NARRATOR: Thank you for the 1000s of
Tweets about our Islanders.
Especially the thoughtful and considerate ones.
We appreciated both of those.
* I don't, I don't know *
* Truth is I'm scared *
* I need something for my soul *
Ah, my God.
* Teardrops keep on falling, they won't stop *
I'm kinda fucking pissed off.
We were in such a good spot
and now shit gets brought up
from some bullshit tweet.
And now we're not.
So, back to fucking square one again.
* Tear drops *
***
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA".
There is drama in the villa
because the public have been saying
mean things about our Islanders.
How dare they!
That's my job.
Fake relationship.
We're all in fake relationships apparently.
Man, I just can't believe
America thinks I'm in a fake relationship.
That's wild.
Faking my emotional connection and physical connection.
How can I do that for fucking 37 days?
Blows my mind, buddy.
Ah.
Syd, may I give you a hug?
Yeah, I don't want a lot of attention brought to me, so...
I know, I know.
I don't appreciate the way
he handled it out there either.
For him to sit out there and get annoyed at me.
Did he?
He was, like, all pissed.
No, it's not you, babe.
Sydney, it is not you.
He wasn't pissed at you.
You know how emotional Isaiah is.
And hearing that what he said has come out,
he is just feeling so uncomfortable
that that's how he acted.
It's not about him being pissed at you at all.
No, Syd.
Don't ever harbor that in at all.
But I do understand why you are upset.
-I know, but it's just, like... -I completely get you.
Did he fucking say it?
That's a low blow if he did that.
And I don't appreciate the comparing.
That's fucked.
I'm going to have to look back on my experience in
here being compared to other girls.
Like, what the fuck?
That's what I'm internally dealing with right now.
I do get you.
But he does rate you so much.
And he is extremely attracted to you.
No boy who is not attracted to a girl,
acts the way he acts with you.
The boy cannot keep his hands off of you.
So, you will get over it.
He never said that to you?
Comparing me?
-Hmm? -Comparing our beauty? No.
Not to me.
I want to know---
Which boy here know.
Oh, one of the boys here know, for sure.
I think Jeff might know, to be completely honest.
Jeff is a huge cheerleader for me.
Jeff was like--
I remember Jeff telling me that
he was, like, to Isaiah, "Yo, she's it."
She's one of a kind." Shit like that.
So, maybe Jeff was in on that conversation.
Jeff, come here.
-We have a question. -What?
Did this conversation between you and Isaiah
or Isaiah and the boys ever come about?
What do you mean?
About the natural beauty thing.
Don't lie to me.
It did. Jeff does know.
He probably mentioned it to me.
-He mentioned it to you? -I think so.
I just feel like he was in the moment saying that shit.
You know what I mean?
He was on a high
'cause he had met somebody.
He met a new romantic relation--
or, connection with.
But he went--
he came back down from that high and realized
"That's not what I want."
So he was just like,
"I think Phoebe's more naturally pretty than Sydney"?
I don't think it was like that.
But I don't know. I honestly don't remember.
But it had to be. She in there fucked up.
If you're saying stuff here, just own up to it.
Because it's going to come out eventually.
I feel for Sydney honestly.
Yeah, she's not okay.
Damn, man.

NARRATOR: As the Islanders prepare for the evening,
Isaiah's going through his nightly routine.
Exfoliating scrub, cleanser, toner, PH balance cream,
anti-aging formula, eye bag serum,
neck wrinkle balm and hair wax.
He's such a fan of natural beauty.
What do I wear?
* I was lost in her *
* Thinking here and now is where we're supposed to be *
You talk to her yet?
-About who? -Syd.
No.
I don't even remember what the fuck I said.
I don't even remember.
It's just really shitty that it's this late in the experience
and I did come here to find love.
* The things we said when we were saying *
* With a broken heart *
Do you know what it would be?
I don't remember you saying anything,
like, to that nature.
I probably said some shit in the spur of the moment, bro.
-I don't remember. -If shit goes south,
we're here, we got your back.
If you need to talk, whatever.
You're not alone in this, all right?
I'm just trying to figure out for myself
if there is anything that he can do that will make this better.
So, if he did mean it exactly how it sounded
but he says you obviously are the most beautiful girl--
To be honest, it's just gonna have to depend
on how this next conversation with him goes.
***
It will either go really good or really bad.
* I still want you to hear me *
If it doesn't go so well,
I do see myself not being with him.
* I want you to hear me *
* We don't talk like we used to before *
* We used to on the daily *
* But noticing that lately *
* That we don't talk like we used to before *
* Feel it changing, baby *
* And I been noticing it lately *
***
Cheers to all of the hot girls here,
to the guys that are dressed kinda nice tonight.
And cheers to Zeta
hopefully bringing us all to first class.
Cheers.
***
* You taking off, I'm moving on *
[chatter]
Come on, we gon' talk about this shit, bro.
Tell me how you feeling right now.
What's in your heart right now?
Obviously, I feel like what was said
was said was-- I was a little bit into Phoebe.
So, I must have said some shit
in the spur of the moment.
-So, I don't really- -Remember.
Yeah. It must not have been that important.
Right. I feel that.
Jeff was, like, my cheerleader through all of Casa Amor,
so I felt like he might know something
about what was said.
Just asked him, like, "So, was something brought up
about natural beauty?"
He really didn't tell me specifics.
So, therefore I can't tell you Isaiah said this.
-But it was said. -That he, like, mentioned it.
Yeah. He did say that.
Isaiah did mention it.
What do you feel like you should do in this situation?
Tell her that my feeling are super genuine for her.
Ultimately just man the fuck up and tell her that
I am sorry about the shit that had happened.
We human, bro. We do shit.
And we made decisions and say shit that we don't mean.
And I feel like I can get past the shit.
I don't think I want to talk to him right now.
I know it fucking sucks.
I don't even want to hear what he has to say.
Like, I don't want to look at him.
***
I'm going to go over here.
* Boy, you're such a lost cause *
Damn, she's walked away.
* Now you're name is crossed off *
* How are you going to fix this? *
* You can't even fix yourself *
I don't know, man.
[deep sigh]
-Fuck. -Bro, we gon' have to--
You gon' have to talk to her, bro.
-It's bad. -I do feel like a piece of shit.
Obviously, you know, if I could take it back, I would.
So, I need to figure all this out because I really
do, really do care about her.
* I always knew that you were too damn selfish *
I'll be back.

[sobbing]
He should have told me everything that
I should have expected to hear.
He probably didn't even realize he said something.
It really was just so in passing.
Just know you are going to get through this.
I've been so good to him.
You have.
* Shouldn't love you but I couldn't help it *
* Had a feeling that you never felt it *
* I always knew that you were too damn selfish *
You've been more than understanding with him.
What happened with Isaiah
comparing me Phoebe's physical looks--
I'm extremely hurt by this.
We'll see if I can get past this.
* Shouldn't love you but I couldn't help it *
* Had a feeling that you never felt it *
* I always knew that you were damn selfish *
***
Jesus.
You can cut the tension with a fucking--
What is it? What's the saying? Knife.
-Scissors. -Scissors.
NARRATOR: Welcome back to "Love Island USA".
Phoebe's pulled Chad for a chat.
Now we were hoping to make Phoebe says "like"
a trilogy.
But it's not happening.
She wanted far too much money.
Plus, 30% of the merch.
So...
Jesus.
Is she all right?
-Yeah. -Is she?
No.
Actually have a question for you.
Do you remember this comment he made?
I wasn't--
This was, like, a boy-boy conversation.
There was no way he would have said to me, like,
"You're more naturally pretty than Sydney.
Shit's hard to hear sometimes
but all we have to do is deal with our problems head-on.
And I think that that is what has allowed
all the relationships within this villa to grow
to the strength they have grown to.
At the end of the day,
I think you have to take all of the shit on the chin though.
I was about to say, it's all about how he reacts to this.
I feel really shitty because I'm like--
A part of it.
I can't get away from this fucking drama.
And I don't know if there is coming back from this.
Hey.
-Hey. -How's it going?
-Chilling. -It's going.
Do you know anything that can be related to it?
Huh?
Anything that was said with that tweet.
Honestly, like I coul--
like I said, I couldn't remember what was said.
But I don't think it's not necessarily about--
At this point I think it's about how it made Sydney feel.
And I think that's what is most important.
It's terrible how it's making Sydney feel.
I just didn't--
It wasn't about me, so I didn't register in the moment.
I know it's terrible. I know.
It is just really hard as a woman feeling like
that is what men see us as.
Is something unnatural.
I can't speak to how you meant it, you know.
But, like, we hear that and it's like,
but we are natural and, like--
It just is-- It feels very derogatory.
I'm telling you I tell her she's beautiful 50 times a day.
I don't understand.
It is what pisses me off the most.
But Isaiah, I'm just trying to explain.
This is the kind of thing that if you talk about the woman--
like, you don't ask a woman's weight.
Like, talking about if she's natural or not natural
is probably not something you should necessarily comment on.
Another thing that upset her was that
you kind of I guess got defensive
when she got upset in the challenge.
I think that was kind of a moment
where you should have been just like,
"Fuck. I'm so sorry.
I don't know if I said that. We can talk about it later."
And I think the fact you got a little defensive on her
made her even more upset.
Yeah. I can understand that.
I feel like it's super important
to clear stuff up to Sydney.
Taking accountability.
This situation is honestly important for my realization.
I don't mean to put her in those predicaments,
in those spots.
Look at how Sydney reacted when they were, like,
saying all the comments about you.
She was like-- she was backing you.
And really, like, supporting you.
And I think even though it's not like you were
throwing her under the bus,
it's like she wanted to feel the same support from you.
In that moment it mattered a little more to you.
It seemed like by reacting that way,
it mattered more how you were feeling
instead how she was feeling.
It's all in the reaction, you know?
***
NARRATOR: Isaiah's natural beauty comments
have left Sydney in tears.
And Isaiah looking like a naughty school boy
who's been told to sit outside the head master's office.
Hands out your pockets, son.
Dude, Sydney is not okay.
I just feel bad for him.
I don't really feel that bad for him.
I feel bad for Sydney.
I feel you. It just sucks, man.
He was doing so good.
I'm rooting for them because
I know she really likes him and he really likes her.
-So, of course-- -You can tell.
I want what is best for them.
Yeah.
But he did fuck up.
You can't be making mistakes like that.
He literally looks like a sad--
He about to talk to her, he about to talk to her.
Want to go on the balcony?
-Want to go on the balcony? -Sure.
* I guess I took it for granted *
* You would bury me some day *
* All the big plans that I planted *
* While you planned your own escape *
* Never thought I was the greatest *
* But I was great for you *
* Just assumed I was your favorite *
* With no one else to choose *
[heavy sigh]
I just don't know how to go forward.
* I was good, just wasn't good enough *
