ANDREW MAXWELL: Single celebs came to find love.
You're going straight in.
I'm happy that we're here
and we can build a better connection.
I'm happy with how things are going right now. Cheers to that. Cheers.
But no-one said it would be easy.
At the very start, you were very, like, hot.
Now I feel like it's really, like, flatlined.
The slow burn isn't working.
Not this slow.
I'm not willing to, like, step up my speed.
I feel like he's pulled back,
and I actually don't know where I stand.
No disrespect to anyone, he will never, ever do better than me.
Mm. Ever.
'I feel like Yaz is digging me out
'when she slags off people that Lockie's been with.'
If she does it again, I am going to lose my shit.
With exes arriving, things got even tougher.
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho!
I'm obviously not gonna try to
stop, like, seeing what could happen there, potentially.
No-one's gonna disrespect me.
I'm done!
Both Chloe and I said we just thought
it was the most respectful thing, me coming to tell you.
We had a kiss on the date.
And with a former flame prowling the villa,
one celeb is about to be fed...
Oi, oi, oi!
...to... Is that an ex?
...the lions!
Dude, say something.
♪ I can mess with the devil... ♪
Say something!
Give us a roar!
Who is that?
♪ I'm the king You're the killer... ♪
Who's the lion?
No!
What's the craic, then? What's happening, people? Sweet?
Who is that? It's mine.
Rawr.
'Oh, my God.'
It's my ex.
'It's Joel. I'm feeling really nervous right now.
'My heart is going ten to the dozen.
'I've got Finn sat to the right of me.'
So that's a bit awkward.
Right. HE CHUCKLES
What's his, what's his name?
- Joel. - Joel? Yes.
Joel, OK. Where's he from?
He's from Essex.
You look gorgeous, you little sort.
What are you doing here?
ROARING
My name's Joel, and my ex is Chloe, and I'm here to get her back.
♪ The kingdom is mine... ♪
When me and Chloe first got together,
things moved rapidly.
We was deep in love. It was quick. We moved in together.
The whole thing was a dream.
Things were going really well until Chloe got the chance to work in LA.
Then it got distant, and then eventually fizzled out.
I think if Chloe didn't have the career opportunity,
we'd still be together.
♪ The kingdom is mine... ♪
I'm here because I wanna see if I can rekindle things with Chloe.
I'm coming here tonight as a lion, king of the jungle,
and I'm here to get my queen.

I look like a right plum, don't I?
ANDREW MAXWELL: I'd be lying if I said no!
You all right, Finn?
FINN: 'If I'm honest, I'm gutted that it's Chloe's ex.
'But I'm still feeling the exact same way towards Chloe.'
This is weird. Yeah.
Oh, there he is. ALL CHEER
How you doing? What's your name? Jake, bro. Nice to meet you.
You'll forget all the names, man. I'm forgetting them already, bro.
All right? Finn. Good to meet you. Nice to meet you.
Ashley, nice to meet you. Now I'll let you say hi.
How you doing? - My bum's out. - Good.
Soon as Joel the lion rocks up, she jumps all over him.
So if that doesn't show Finn what she's been missing,
I don't know what else will.
- I'm sweating. - But you're here. All right, so what's the deal?
Fill us out, fill us in.
So, this is Joel. Um, he is my ex-boyfriend.
We were together for a few months,
but we've known each other our whole lives.
When did you break up? We broke up about eight or so months ago.
Seven, eight months ago.
I wanted to go to America,
and I didn't think it was the right time for my career.
I know you didn't.
I wasn't gonna stop her - from doing her dreams. - Aw.
So, it is what it is.
But now I'm here, baby. - You are. - Yeah.
I feel really overwhelmed with emotions
because it's a familiar face.
It's someone I've spent a lot of time with,
that I've known forever.
And I just can't believe it's him.
So, what brings you here, man? I've come back for Chloe.
That's the main reason why.
I think it's time to rekindle now. Know what I mean?
Chloe, how do you feel, hearing that?
I don't know. I'm a bit shocked.
I bet you are. We'll have a conversation.
What made you wait all the way until now?
Well, because she's done her stuff in America,
and she said she wants to settle down by 26 and have kids.
So it's now or never, innit? So...
'The main reason why we broke up
'was because I wanted to go to America to fulfil my dreams.'
But Joel was a massive party animal,
and that hindered our relationship because I was sober,
and I felt like being with Joel just wouldn't have been right.
Yeah, we have got... I've got to... Yeah, I have got to...
Ba-ba-ba, ba-ba-ta-ba-pap.
Aw.
And that's it, really. GIRLS:Aw!
Oh, baby, you good?
SOBBING
No, let him... Girls, let Joel bring her back.
You all right? I've missed you so much.
Don't, you'll make me emotional.
CHLOE SOBBING
♪ There's no way around this
♪ Only through... ♪
You have an expectation of what it's gonna be like when your ex turns up.
And then they turn up,
and your whole world just spins.
SHE SIGHS
It's so good to see you. Give me a kiss.
You look fucking beautiful. I'm nervous, but...
How are you feeling?
You look fucking beautiful. I'm nervous, but...
You're gonna fit in.
Finn, are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
I promise I'm fine. It's awkward, though.
Oh, my God.
I've tried to stop thinking about him,
to try and get him out of my mind,
and...
I haven't been able to. And I've been trying to suppress it.
Just seeing him in person has just really...
shook me up a little bit.
That was very emotional just now.
Well...
That was intense, wasn't it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cheers, bro. Oh.
'Chloe and Finn kissed today.'
Then, all of a sudden, her ex walks out.
I'm so happy it's not me, honestly.
Yeah, so, I got a question for you.
How would you feel if she was in here with another guy?
Not a problem, bro. You know, wouldn't bother me at all.
Why wouldn't it bother you? Cos it's just another person.
- What am I afraid of? - OK. That wouldn't bother me, like.
It's up to her to decide with anything, innit? So...
it is what it is. Yeah, OK.
And if-if it weren't on, it weren't on, so...
Of course. - May the best man win. - Yeah.
Are you all right? Why you looking at him for?
I see them look over, like. You onto her, yeah?
We can talk now, or we can talk on...
Whenever you want, brother.
SHE SQUEALS, LAUGHS
Watching this geezer squirm...
'I'm enjoying it just a bit too much!'
I've been getting to know Chloe for, well, since the start, really.
Yeah, yeah. Um, had a kiss on the date yesterday.
So, it's been going all right. Cool, sounds like it.
'It's not nice hearing that she's kissed someone else.'
But at the end of the day, I wasn't here. But I'm here now, so.
What's going on?
Nothing, just having a chat.
What's the plan for tonight? Just this, yeah?
We've been drinking, partying, we've been dancing.
Yeah. I'm thirsty. I don't drink.
Oh, swear down? You're not drinking?
No, I went sober four months ago.
Mm. Swear down.
'Joel's sober.
'I am so proud of him because it has been a massive problem in our past.'
So... this is a very, very good sign.
Got a pool and that.
ANDREW MAXWELL: Now he's met the competition,
Joel heads off to check out the villa.
Yeah, yeah. Got a lounge area,
kitchen over the back with bare snacks.
"Bear" snacks? He's a bloody lion!
I'm just so glad it weren't me. When that lion come out,
I thought it was gonna be Lockie the lion.
Do you feel a little disappointed it wasn't your ex, or no?
I can enjoy my night. I'm so excited I can enjoy my night.
- You're so excited? - Cheers. - Ah, cheers. - Cheers to that.
What do you guys think of that? Like, that was, like, a lot.
It was a lot cos the thing is, she's been cracking on with Finn.
- Yeah. - But it's quite clear that she does like her ex.
Cos she started crying - as soon as he walked in. - I know.
Tell you what. She likes Finn. - She loves Joel. - Yeah.
Chloe getting emotional only makes me...
think of times when I've felt the same.
And that's only when I truly love someone and wanna be with them.
CHEERING
So, darling, tell me how you're feeling.
Fucking smoking! CHEERING
Karma is a bitch!
Welcome to my world!
LAUGHTER
If Finn hadn't been such a bell-end to me,
I possibly would've felt sorry for him.
But karma is a bitch.
SHE SQUEALS, LAUGHS
ANDREW: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Revenge is sweet, but it could all turn sour
when the next ex arrives under the cover of darkness.
SINISTER LAUGH
All right... Oh!
SNORTS
Did that just happen?
Oh, wow.
Who would you fancy, out of the whole villa?
- James. - Really? He's, like, my type.
How about you guys? - Finn. - Mm-hm.
Joe Garrett if he didn't open his mouth.
ANDREW: Ah, gossiping about boys and getting horny in the hot tub.
Looks like everyone's got over the shock of Joel's arrival.
Everyone except Chloe.
How are we? Are you all right?
I did not expect him to come in like that.
No, fine. I'm so sorry.
'I'm realising now this must feel very uncomfortable for Finn.'
I need to tell him exactly where my head's at.
How are you feeling?
And be honest. I don't care. I know. OK, yeah.
I'm feeling very overwhelmed. All right, honest.
But... I do feel like over the past few days,
me and you have been getting closer. Mm-hm.
And I'm not saying I want to put a permanent stop to that.
No, of course.
But...
...obviously I'm gonna take him for a chat.
And I'm gonna sit him down, I'm gonna debrief him,
just so he doesn't feel like
he's walked into his ex in another relationship...
I get that... and he's come to get her back, you know.
You showed me a lot of respect by allowing me
to have conversations with Paige and sort that out.
- Yeah. - So it's only right that I show you that same...
in terms of taking a step back,
not involving myself in it
until you sort of figure out your head and all of that.
Yeah. 'I feel like it'd be a shame
'if Chloe was to obviously rekindle things with Joel.'
Cos it means that we can't sort of progress any more
and that chapter will end. But equally,
I'm certainly not looking at Joel in a threat sort of sense at all.
I'm loving how it's progressing with me and you.
Definitely.
And I'm glad that we had that date
because we have had that time to get to know each other properly.
And we've shared a kiss and... Yeah, yeah.
We've been living together for a little while now.
It's like, OK, now I know where we could potentially go.
That's gonna help me, in my head, make that decision
on whether I wanna get back with him or not.
'My head is exploding.'
I don't even know how this is gonna end,
because Joel is a very upfront, straightforward guy.
He wants me, no-one else, and he's coming for me.
And I just don't want it to bubble up and explode.
ANDREW MAXWELL: While the new ex
settles into his first night in the villa...
Big man's out. LAUGHTER
Still got his tail on.
...Chloe B and Yaz have a different ex on their mind.
Just really hope if he arrives, there's no bad vibes.
Cos it's not from me.
Who?
I know, I'm nervous about it.
♪ We stay up all night... ♪
Love you all.
♪ Till the sun rises... ♪
Night, Joel. Good night, Joel, mate.
Welcome to the shitshow!
LAUGHTER
Yeah, but it's worrying me because I feel like
I've done all I can to make things all right with you.
But... No, you have.
But the thing is, for me, it doesn't bother me
because it was so long ago.
No offence, it shouldn't - bother you. - But it doesn't.
Because you were my pal and you slept with my fella.
We wasn't mates at the time. It shouldn't bother you at all.
It doesn't. But that's the thing.
That's why when it gets...
If anyone was entitled to get bothered, it was me.
I've apologised. I can't do any more than say I'm sorry.
Why are you bringing it up? You are!
I feel like I'm watching something that I shouldn't.
But I still kinda want to keep watching.
You've brought it up multiple times. I've said sorry over and over again.
It's all I can do, is say sorry. It happened three years ago!
I'm over it! And this is why I've not...
You've over it cos you done wrong.
If you're not all right with me, then say it.
If you're not all right with me, then don't have me in your bed.
You're the one bringing it up. You've brought it up multiple times.
You've made several digs, and I've let it go.
What digs have I made?
If you don't... What digs?
If you don't know, I don't need...
Where I said I'm the best bird he's ever been with? That's facts.
I apologised then. I've apologised now.
I can't do anything more, and I'm not gonna sit here
and have that thrown in my face every single day
because she's worried that Lockie may or may not turn up.
But if you feel the need to say that
to bring other women down to bring yourself up...
It's not to bring other women down. It's to state facts.
OK.I'm not talking shit. I never bullshit.
I'm the best bird he's been with. That's the facts.
I'm glad that you feel like that. And he will tell you the same!
Listen, I didn't have that relationship...
I didn't wash his underwear. You did!
Of course you didn't cos you had a one-night stand!
I was washing his underwear
cos I was a good girl to him for four years.
You fucked him once in a Travelodge.
But that's you, and that's me! You're being rude.
I'm stating facts. Now fuck off. If you didn't have a problem...
Fuck off. ...don't pretend you did.
I'm not revisiting this.
I'm not gonna willingly put myself up to be dug out
because I apologised for what I done,
and I own up to the fact that I wasn't the best person.
But I can't keep apologising,
and I'm not gonna put myself up to being ridiculed by someone,
and that's just it.

SHE YAWNS
I'm gutted that Chloe B's made the decision to leave the villa
cos her and I did grow close in here,
but after witnessing the argument last night,
to be honest, I'm not shocked.
YAZ SIGHS CHLOE: What?
YAZ:
'Chloe B has decided to leave the villa.'
Obviously, I do feel gutted for her, and I do feel upset
because I did express a lot off my chest last night,
but knowing that my ex could potentially come in,
I think I just started to get really bad anxiety with it.
And I realised that maybe it's just still too soon
and too hard for me to be friends with her.
I just wanted to get through this, like, plain sailing and no rows.
Mm-hm.
YAZ SIGHS OK.
♪ No love left in this town... ♪
I am fucking shattered. I'm very tired.
'My first night in the villa was all right.'
I'm not bothered about what's happened already with Finn.
It's a minor to me. Me and Chloe have a good history,
so hopefully we can pick things up where we left off.
Good morning, besties. Good morning.
'Obviously, Joe has said that he wants a slow burn,
'so I'm just gonna try to roll with that
'cos I actually enjoy being round him.'
But I still wouldn't mind some fresh blood, I'm not gonna lie.
It might shake him up a bit, you know.
How do you feel about everything, though?
Where's you head at, kind of vibe?
I had a conversation - with Finn yesterday. - Yeah.
I think it's just really upsetting
because, like, I did actually start to like Finn.
I know.
And then when I look at Joel, I'm just like...
Yeah. Do you know what I mean?
It's very, like... It's a homely feeling.
But then I am... I'm questioning myself -
like, is it a homely feeling, or is it just a comfortable feeling?
Yeah.
And I think that's what I need to kind of... Figure out.
...figure out cos I don't wanna be co-dependent on that one person.
It doesn't actually sound like you're fully done
with the Finn sitch, are you?
Oh... Or that you're not sure if you're done?
I don't think there's anything wrong in what you're doing now.
I think as long as you're open and honest... Yeah.
I think it is a shame because you and Finn
were definitely developing something.
We were.
Me and Finn have got something good going on,
and the fact that Joel has come into the villa,
even though it's spun my head,
I don't wanna completely cut off Finn.
My mind is bamboozled.
Definitely have a chat with Joel,
and just figure out if he is now the man that you need.
SHE SIGHS I know.
Well, it's a stressful scenario for you, eh?
ANDREW: Well, Chloe, do you know what eases stress?
Spending time at sea.
It's boat party ti-i-i-ime!
Boat party, boat party, yeah!
'You've got Finn on one side of the boat catching my eye,
'then you've got Joel catching my other eye.'
This just feels really weird and abnormal, I'm not gonna lie.
Do you like the shirt? Yeah, I do like the shirt.
Why does everyone like this shirt so much?
It's very boat vibes, isn't it? That's what I thought.
This earring's nice. That's cool.
This? It's really cool.
They're Parker's actually. What is it?
Parker's. What's that?
Her earrings. I stole them from her. Oh, I thought it was a brand.
'Me and Tamara are getting on.'
At this moment in time, I'm not sure if it's fully there.
Who knows? We'll see.
You seem to be settling in really well.
Yeah, everyone's nice.
They've accepted me into their little group.
So, yeah, all good. They have.
So, what are you feeling now? What is...?
Where do we go from here?
I just think at the minute, obviously, before you came in,
me and Finn were getting along really well.
Yeah. And my head is scrambled right now.
I just wanna know why...
you think us getting back together is gonna work for the long run.
There was things I needed to change. Yeah.
I've changed them. Do you know what I mean?
I've had the time to myself to think and reflect.
But all I'm saying is now
is that I think it will be really good for us
for the long run to realise...
To see where we're at. ..why we're meant to be together.
The last thing I want is for us to end up
in the same position, in the same cycle.
I don't want that, you know?
'Me and Joel broke up for a reason.'
Even though I got emotional when I seen him last night,
I need to understand why he's changed, how he's changed,
that it's good for the longevity.
I want to make sure that if we give it another go,
it's gonna work this time round, you know? So do I.
I understand where she's coming from,
but I don't really like the feeling of being in limbo.
'I just wanna know what she really wants.'
If it was up to me, I'd be moving things forward a little faster.
I know you and IV had such an amazing time together when you did.
The one thing I would say is I still do believe
Parker still might be into you.
Would you say that you're actually holding yourself back still, then?
Yeah. I am, I am. Yeah, you are brother, I can see it.
So, now it's just about, you know, recollecting,
regrouping and coming back, and I think I'm almost there.
All right. Good, good, I'm glad. So, how about you, bro?
Obviously, Joel came in last night. Yep.
Where's your head at, kind of thing? Bit of a bummer.
I was enjoying getting to know her. Progression was there.
I was enjoying it. You were getting on.
We were getting on really well.
However, they've got a lot of history.
Yeah. She gave me a lot of respect in allowing me to sort my head out
with Paige at the start, so I'm doing the exact same.
I'm gonna take a step back,
allow them to sort whatever needs to be sorted out.
You know, do it in a way where I'm not taking a step back
that Chloe's like, "Oh, God's sake, he's not interested at all."
I'll still let her know, like,
"Obviously, you know, if you sort your head out
"and want to still progress with me, then absolutely fine."
If it was to be sorted out and she came back like, "Actually..."
Yeah, I'd be happy with that, you know what I'm saying?
Equally, I respect Chloe, I've got care for Chloe cos we're close.
You just wanna see her happy. I wanna see her happy.
Stay in the picture, but obviously not just...
Yeah, exactly that, exactly that. No, thank you, bro, thank you.
Oh, what a day. What a day on the boat, eh?
Eh, it's been good, Joe.
Did you do a backflip, Jarred? I did two, bro.
Reckon you could teach us? Yeah, I can teach you guys.
TABLET CHIMES
What? What was that?
What was that? What was that?
- Grab it! - No! You're kidding.
Wait what? - No. - No!
So, we're having a great time,
and the Tablet of Terror has just went off.
'I do not feel great.'
My stomach is like a washing machine.

Me and Tamara were together for six months, on and off.
If it wasn't the distance,
I think we would definitely still be together.
Every time it was on, it was always good fun.

Finley, good to meet you, mate. Afternoon.
Hello. How are you?
Yeah, I'm good. How are you? Good, good, you're looking well.
How you doing, bro? Nice to meet you.
I don't know if there's unfinished business,
but she is looking a little nervous.
What's the story? It's a bit of a distance thing.
She lived in Gold Coast and Melbourne. I was in Sydney.
Why are you here? HE LAUGHS
Why are you here? See how you are.
See how things go, you know?
You look happy anyway. I'm, like, shocked.
When was the last time you guys seen each other?
Bali. It was Bali, wasn't it?
How long was you together?
On and off for, like, six months to a year.
It was always good times, like, - but just distance. - Yeah.
So, this is probably the most we're gonna spend together...
Literally! ...ever.
Make or break. Like, see what happens.
'There is only a certain time you can kind of slow burn.'
And I guess this will tell now with her ex coming in.
Well, welcome mate. Welcome.
Thank you, boys. I feel welcome. Welcome, bro.
Why me?

'and then I have Craig who I have unfinished business with.'

Don't know what the right thing is. Welcome to me.
Craig, welcome to the fam.
Welcome. Whoo!
All hail Craig!
Craig, do you wanna come for a chat?
Enjoy, guys.
How are you feeling? Is it a bit weird or not?
No. No?
SOFTLY:No, I think me and her are just more friends, man.
I think so. She's a beautiful girl,
and I think she's great inside and out, but...
And especially today, I just thought
this is a great opportunity for her
to rekindle things with someone she's still really into.
I think, in my mind...
I think I need to have a conversation with her tomorrow.
NORMALLY: I don't believe it's fair any more to drag it out.
'Now Craig's in the villa,
'it is definitely the best time to leave it.
'I think I just need to be upfront and honest with her
'and just cut it where it is.'
Ah!
ANDREW: Here he comes, the tumbling twat.
Right, so how are you?
Pretty dizzy, I reckon.
Good, no, everyone's sound in here, like.
Why are you here, Craig? Just tell me.
See how things are with you
and see if there's anything still there.
OK.And just to see if it can actually lead to summat proper.
I just kind of feel like we...
SHE LAUGHS
...just had all this sexual attraction to each other,
and there was nothing, like, with substance.
So, for me, right now that you're here,
I'm kind of like...
Well, you've taken that step to come here.
Exactly, that's what I'm saying.
So, since coming in here, I've obviously had
sort of like a connection with someone.
I'm not sure where that's going,
cos seeing you today made me, like...
...really question everything that I've been doing.
But I have been hanging out with Joe.
Yeah. We've had, like, one kiss...
...and that's literally it.
That doesn't mean that I'm not willing to...
...suss out our vibes and see if there is something more.
Squash that.
I have to squash it? Completely?
Obviously.
Do you want me to start cracking on with someone else until you decide?
No? There you go.
Squash it.
We'll move on together, ride off into the sunset.
Craig's telling me I need to squash things with Joe.
In my head, I'm thinking, why?
No-one's gonna tell me to stop. I'll do what I want.
This is a lot for me, you know?
I feel like the chat went well.
I definitely think there's a chance for me and Tamara to rekindle,
so there's a lot riding on this.
I think this time in the villa is gonna be make or break.
♪ I don't even know what I do Can't remember
♪ I've been in and out Of my head
♪ Please forgive me... ♪
Craig asked me to end everything with Joe.
SHE GASPS
And I don't want to... I don't want to end it.
I think that is a fucking liberty. Liberty.
That is liberty.
Right, night, boys. Welcome, Craig. First night, bro.
Yeah, boys.
♪ Waking up a bit too late... ♪
It's a day of rest. Fuck off.
HE YAWNS
MUFFLED SPEECH
So, I'm gonna have a chat with Tamara today
and really just let her know exactly where my head's at,
and that I do see it more as friends.
This is definitely gonna be really, really hard for me to do,
but I think I've just got to rip the plaster and just let her know.
Hi, baby.
How are you feeling?
Refreshed. Why are you glowing? Fucking 12 hours of sleep.
I had a great sleep!
'I definitely want to have a talk with James today.
'I obviously feel the sexual chemistry. How can you not?'
But I think it does kind of need to be built up, still,
so hopefully today is a step towards that.
Top of your lip.
Stop. Do you want to walk about with a big pimple?
Come here. No.
You're being spiteful with this now. I'm not being spiteful with it.
I've been picking your spots. I'm doing you a favour.
Finn and I are getting along.
'I got ignored for a couple of days.'
Only now are we back in a better place,
and I'm kinda enjoying it.
You need some oils. Mm.
Does that feel better? Yeah.
It just feels like how it was, you know?
This WAS how it was, you little mug.
I know!
I'm sorry.
It is what it is.
I have been thinking quite a lot
about this whole Joel-Finn situation.
'I feel like I need to make a decision,
'and I haven't got a lot of time,
'but I am gonna have to let someone down.'
ANDREW: Oh, that sounds stressful, Chloe.
But if you get a wriggle on,
you might be able to get a last-minute appointment
at the villa's new and exclusive wellness spa.
Do you come here often?
I work here, babe, yeah, so I'm here every day.
When's your day off?
I don't get days off. Oh, that's a shame. All right.
Close your eyes. Shut your mouth.
ANDREW: Ooh, she's a charmer (!)
T-Dog.
Chat?
'I don't think Tamara's gonna take it very well.'
I think she's gonna be very upset, actually.
What's going on?
Go for a little chitchat.
Mm-hm.
It's just gonna be a hard pill to swallow, I think.
I just wanted to be, like, completely upfront
and as honest as I possibly can. Yeah.
Obviously, it's been great, getting to know each other,
but I'm just really not feeling it any more.
OK.
ANDREW: Oh, harsh. You're off the team, sweetheart!
And I know there was a bit of a slow burn and whatever else, erm,
but, yeah, I guess it's kind of fizzled out now and just...
but, like, I still love being your friend and stuff.
Yeah. And I really hope we still can be.
Of course. You promise?
Yes, it's fine, come here. I appreciate it so much.
All good. Sure?
Yeah. OK, great.
All right. - Not a problem. - All right.
♪ Where we gonna hide Our broken hearts... ♪
Ugh, why was I so harsh?
I don't think Joe is ready for commitment
in any way, shape or form.
'I just don't think he has it in him, if I'm honest.
'It's hard, cos I really do like him.'
♪ Let the tears pour out Wash away all the past
♪ We can drown in the flood Let this breath be our last
♪ When the walls come down... ♪
ANDREW: With Chloe and Joel getting reacquainted,
poor old Finn's wandering around the villa like a lost puppy.
So, have you been pied off completely?
No.
You must have started to feel something.
No?
Or do you feel too awkward telling me?
Are we not at that stage yet?
No, no, no, I prom... Like, I would tell you, like...
I'm glad we can chat, but...
The situation with myself and Chloe,
I feel like the door's been left open
so a chat with her today would probably be nice
just to confirm where her head's at.
That tea, by the way,
looks the shittest tea I've ever seen in my life.
Well, good thing you're not drinking it.
ANDREW: Ha! You're lucky not to be wearing it.
The Tablet of Terror is feeling the love,
and has sent exes Parker and James on a date.
Oh, this is nice.
This is nice. Oh, this is nice!
ANDREW: Time for a spot of romance... and tapas.
Can you feed me some grapes?
Ooh, should I throw in some bread?
'James is looking so yummy.'
'Definitely still feeling the attraction.'
Definitely still feeling the chemistry,
so we're gonna see what happens.
How about I throw one? How about I throw one?
Yeah. OK.
Ooh! I mean...
How about I give you all the carbs next?
If you want these abs to stay... SHE LAUGHS
...I'm not touching any of that.
Parker and I always have a good time together,
and I always enjoy her company, so I'm happy to be here with her.
I did miss you a little bit.
I was very closed off in the past couple of days
just because that breakup with IVD was very tough.
But I feel like I'm back and I'm better,
and I wouldn't want to do this experience with anybody else
because you are one of the exes that definitely got away from me.
I do think from everything we've gone through so far
and the way you've handled yourself,
there's definitely been change I've been seeing.
I think the best way to, like, rekindle things honestly
is just continue to have conversations,
continue to get that chemistry back.
So, I just want to get to, like, know each other again.
'James has definitely gotten my trust back slowly
'and has changed for the better.'
But we're gonna take it day by day and see.
So, are you saying you're not looking at any more,
talking to any more guys,
and I'm not talking to any more girls?
As of right now, I would like that.
So, is this, like, dating?
Yeah. We could say it's dating. OK, dating, dating, OK.
It's like dating. Dating.
Dating? Dating.
Yes. OK.
Cool. LAUGHTER
The date was amazing. We're going back to the villa
and we're dating, but not boyfriend and girlfriend.
'I'm super excited.'
Cheers to a new future together.
You have to stare in each other's eyes.
Otherwise it's seven years of bad sex.
So, look, cheers. This is...
You have to look... You looked away.
The... OK.
ANDREW: Hmm, I think they might be dating.
And back at the villa,
things still look a bit hairy for Chloe.
I need to shave my armpits.
Do you want me to do that for you and all?
I need my arse shaving, Yaz, I'm not...
Bend over, girl! LAUGHTER
Joe shaves his ass. Yeah.
The old hair removal cream. Yeah.
I've done it on my arse and it's never grown back.
TABLET CHIMES
No!
Oh, you're kidding.
Oh, my God.
The Tablet of Terror's gone off.
'I do not need any more drama.'
All right, are you guys ready?
"The sun may be setting but it's only getting hotter.
"Ashley...
"Paige...
"Yaz...
"..for one of you, your past is about to wash up on the beach."
No! Oh!
Oh, shit.
"Will there be romance under the full moon,
"or will you be left howling?"
So, you're going to the beach. At night-time.
When it's dark.
I've never seen all three women this nervous before.
'I mean, we're kinda just on edge right now.'
And I'm hoping it's not Ashley's.
Ah, my heart's hit my arse.
'I'm in shock.'
Please don't let it be my ex.
At night. That's just not safe.
We're three women going to the beach at night.
That just makes no sense to me. I'm staying here.
I don't want to go. I don't wanna go.
ANDREW: Oh-ho-ho, Ashley!
You can't run from the Tablet of Terror.
SINISTER LAUGH
Oh, my gosh, girls. LAUGHTER
Oh! - Oh, my God. - All right.
To be on the beach at night...
I'm not gonna lie, I'm nervous.
This feels weird at night.
I don't like it at night. It's spooky.
This is horrible.
I wanna go home!
I wanna go home.
'I feel a little bit numb at the moment.'
This is a weird situation. My emotions are just everywhere.
So, what's the story with your ex, Ashley?
The one ex that I'm more concerned about,
we were really close.
I wanted to be serious and he just didn't wanna be serious,
so I ended up cutting it off, and it was hard.
If it was your ex, though,
do you think it would ruin things for you and Jarred or not?
I don't think my head could be turned, but if somebody comes out,
I do think that this will test the bounds of our relationship.
'I have one ex that would be kind of concerning to see.'
I did have strong feelings for him,
so seeing him would be kind of tough.
OK.
I'm just hoping it's one of yours.
I'm gonnae need a few sips of this.
Paige, how are you feeling? Nervous.
I wouldn't even acknowledge the geezer.
Do you know what I mean? It's that bad.
I'm alone with my past right now,
and it is haunting the shit out of me.
I'm nervous for me, but I'm nervous for you girls as well.
Yaz, how are you feeling?
So, me and my ex was on and off for about four years.
We was on a reality show together, which was pretty intense.
We kind of outplayed our relationship to the nation.
And I haven't seen him since for about a good year and a half.
Would you be, like, sweet, would youse get on,
would youse acknowledge each other?
He'd have to be a completely new person.
This could be really bad.
Things in the past are definitely left better in the past.
Whatever happens... we're in it together.
Please do not be my ex.
Ah, gosh.
Well, whoever does walk in,
if it's one of my exes, you don't know me.
Oh, God!
Fucking hell.
Oh, my God.
