00:00Previously...

00:04Movie night!

00:06An island movie date.

00:08Oh my god, stop it!

00:10Shoot!

00:11I wouldn't mind looking at that every day.

00:13Wouldn't mind waking up to that every day.

00:15Look at me go.

00:17Spilled speed dating secrets.

00:19He's my physical type.

00:21This isn't used to me.

00:23I'm not jealous. I don't get jealous in relationships.

00:25I'm really comfortable in my own skin.

00:27And couples code.

00:28Hola!

00:29Welcome! Welcome to Couples Code.

00:32Went from zero to awkward.

00:34I really want to talk about movie night.

00:36Really?

00:38I could definitely sense a little bit of jealousy there.

00:41When Emmanuel called out Sam.

00:43I feel like...

00:44Let me take this. This is me, yeah?

00:46You don't really like to let her talk to you.

00:47Would you say, like, I'm not trying to speak for you here,

00:49so feel free to jump in.

00:50My partner is just sat there with her lips closed.

00:54I don't want to be with her. I don't want to be near her.

00:56I don't want to be around her. I don't want a bar of her.

00:59Coming up next...

01:01Jess and Sam struggle to stay afloat.

01:04Where's your wedding ring?

01:05I understand you wanted this to work.

01:09And so have I.

01:14And a double date...

01:15Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome!

01:21Puts Tom in the hot seat.

01:24I really think that Tom has to grow a bit of a backbone.

01:27Are you feeling relationship or friendship at this present moment?

01:32Do you feel it's happened to Emily?

01:36Yeah.

01:37Yeah.

01:39And then, something unthinkable is on its way.

01:44What the hell?

01:46We have an out here.

01:49And for someone, the honeymoon is over.

01:52The honeymoon island experience has almost reached its halfway point.

02:10Our couples have now been stranded for 10 days.

02:13And one of our brides has woken up this morning feeling frustrated.

02:21Me and Byron have not had sex yet.

02:28Sexless marriage?

02:29Nah.

02:30I don't think I've ever met a guy who doesn't want to...

02:41Take my clothes off.

02:43I miss it.

02:44In recent days, Brie and Byron's affection levels have stalled.

02:48It's hard to hear for a girl as a girl that, like, the guy that you're dating, married to,

02:54spending a lot of time with...

02:55Yeah.

02:56..doesn't think about you sexually.

02:57I just want to keep on getting to know you, you know?

02:59Yeah.

03:00Like, I feel like that's where my intimacy grows, you know?

03:02Yeah, yeah.

03:03Absolutely.

03:04That's where I find attraction.

03:07And despite agreeing to a slow burn, Brie's starting to wonder if it's ever going to happen.

03:14It's weird.

03:16Especially, like, sleeping in a bed with him all night.

03:19So, yeah.

03:21Now the fun part.

03:23That's no good.

03:25I don't want him to think that I'm some sort of sex maniac or anything.

03:31But I definitely think in a relationship, sexual compatibility is just so important for it to work.

03:38The backspin.

03:40We are halfway.

03:41And, like, if he doesn't want to, like, it's not going to work.

03:45I'm not going to waste my time here.

03:47That's a hole in one.

03:49Measure that.

03:53While Brie is preoccupied with the idea of a roll in the sand with Byron...

04:02Good morning.

04:04Good morning.

04:06Our other couples are starting the day with their own frustrations about island life.

04:14What an annoying way to wake up.

04:16My bug just flew up my nose.

04:18Do your yawns always have to be tough?

04:24That's it.

04:26But the big topic on everyone's minds is yesterday's tumultuous and explosive Couples Cove.

04:34Couples Cove was, um, extra emotionally draining.

04:38And we were sitting, like, right in the middle, and then the drama was just going around that way, and then back that way, and back that way.

04:45And just, like, sitting back and watching it explode.

04:48Oh, my God.

04:49Sam's a shit-stirer, to be honest.

04:52Emmanuel was my type, and it's been what I've been going for for the last four or something years.

04:59And...

05:01Wasn't in the top three, guys, just Sapphire.

05:03Didn't make it.

05:05And we, yeah.

05:07And I felt...

05:08I feel like...

05:09Let me take this. This is me, yeah?

05:12You don't really like to let it talk to you.

05:17Would you say, like, I'm not trying to speak for you here, so feel free to jump in.

05:22Sam has been disrespectful to Jess.

05:25Jess, yeah, is very much a match for me that I need rather than I want.

05:31And I'm a compassionate person, and it doesn't make me feel good to see Sam talk down on Jess like this at all.

05:38You are making her feel uncomfortable right now.

05:41You don't even let your wife speak.

05:44Is that how you feel?

05:48I'll wake up.

05:50I've got a manual telling me that I'm not letting my partner speak at all.

05:54Are you going to stay?

05:56Thanks.

05:58And to top it off, my partner, my partner is just sat there with her lips closed.

06:07This, for me, is a total deal breaker.

06:10This is a deal breaker.

06:12I'm saying right now, I don't want to be with her.

06:13I don't want to be near her.

06:14I don't want to be around her.

06:15I don't want a bar of her.

06:17How do you think Sam and Jess would have went when they got back to their island?

06:23I don't know.

06:24The way that he addresses Jess and the way that he talks over her, you know, publicly in front of everybody was horrendous.

06:32Like, we can all see it.

06:34Yeah.

06:36I just did not like the way Sam was talking over Jess, you know.

06:40I just wanted to, I wanted him to understand that and just address it, you know, because I don't think Sam is treating her fairly.

06:48It's hard for me to befriend someone who hasn't, doesn't have respect for, you know.

06:53It's why.

06:54Fair to say Sam really needs to do some self work and Jess needs to run.

06:57Feeling pretty rough after Couples Cove.

07:12I understand that Sam feels hurt and he feels attacked.

07:18But his reaction was so abrasive.

07:22It was so snappy.

07:24And I felt really stuck.

07:29I don't know where we're at, to be honest.

07:31But he's obviously angry at me.

07:36I got really worked up yesterday.

07:39I was f***ing hated.

07:42Because I feel like I'd been fully stabbed in the back by my partner.

07:47Jess didn't step up when Emmanuel started to tell me that I'd been cutting her off the whole time.

07:53How'd you sleep?

07:56Okay.

07:57How did you sleep?

07:59Yeah, well, considering Couples Cove.

08:03Another banger.

08:05Oh yeah.

08:07What a hoot.

08:09It really upset me.

08:10I feel humiliated and embarrassed.

08:13I felt like my partner just left me hanging out to dry.

08:15Things really went pear-shaped on the back end of yesterday for me.

08:19Me too.

08:21Where's your wedding ring?

08:23Oh, it's in my pocket.

08:27Did you take it off on purpose?

08:29It fell off this morning.

08:33Do you feel like I wasn't letting you speak yesterday?

08:36There's only once that I thought you didn't let me speak.

08:39Okay. So just to be clear, there was only one point in yesterday's entirety

08:44that you felt like I didn't let you speak, correct?

08:47Yeah, correct.

08:48Correct.

08:50Do you feel like that wasn't the time for you to potentially say,

08:52hey, Emmanuel, don't speak for me and don't speak for my partner?

08:56Sam hasn't done that.

08:59Do you not think that that was the time to maybe go, whoa, pull the break?

09:02I was shocked, Sam.

09:03I was shocked.

09:04I'm sorry that I didn't step in for you there.

09:07Cool.

09:08I need to know this because moving forward, like if those situations come up, I can expect my partner to be in shock and to not be ready to step up for me.

09:19I wasn't, I wasn't, I wasn't on my game right then.

09:22Okay.

09:23I would have, I would have questioned him.

09:24And I did, like, I...

09:27You seem to be getting really defensive right now.

09:29Like, I'm just trying to, we haven't spoken about this.

09:32I was attacked.

09:35I was blindsided.

09:37And the worst part of it all was by this, by you.

09:42I feel like, in the moment you set out to hurt me, and hats off to you, you've done a great job.

09:50Yesterday, I felt like that my partner might have been a wolf in sheep's clothing.

09:57That's how it came across to me.

09:59You know?

10:00Have I, have I made you think that?

10:01No, not, yeah, yesterday.

10:02Yeah, yesterday you did.

10:05I'm just, I'm being completely honest with you.

10:07How did this happen, Jess?

10:09Like, how did this happen and why did you not say anything?

10:11I was...

10:12Hey, Jess, I'm not, I'm not saying...

10:14Can you just stop?

10:15Like, you're actually speaking over me now.

10:17Okay.

10:18Stop.

10:20So how do we, how do you move forward?

10:22How do I move forward?

10:23Focus on the present.

10:24Right, the present right now.

10:25That's it.

10:26Don't worry about that other stuff.

10:27I made a mistake.

10:28You failed attack.

10:29I'm really sorry about that.

10:31I'm not trying to talk over you.

10:32I'm not trying to talk at you.

10:33I'm trying to just say my piece like you are, Jess.

10:36You know, I understand you wanted this to work, and so have I.

10:40But right now, with how I was left to hang out to dry like that yesterday, I am really hurt.

10:46Like, I'm really hurt.

10:48I feel like there's no trust between us.

10:51How do I come back from this?

10:59I need a minute.

11:21I am really hurt.

11:22I wanna see myself, your bonus.

11:23I want to check this out.

11:24I will answer that again..

11:25equilibrium back by being able to meet her.

11:27This week I am, really, feeling yes.

11:29I love child.

11:30At the moment, I feel really emotionally and mentally drained and super confused.

11:50That conversation, it definitely felt like a breakup conversation to me.

11:55Look, I still am hopeful about the relationship, like, when it comes to the relationship with Sam,

12:01but I'm not going to be in a relationship where someone thinks I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing.

12:06It's just, I can't do that.

12:08So, unless we figure out a way to get on the same page together, I don't know how we can move forward.

12:23Bullock.

12:25How are you feeling?

12:27Okay, how are you feeling?

12:28Yeah, I feel good.

12:29I feel really good.

12:30I feel really good.

12:33Yeah, it's a pretty big chat this morning.

12:36And, yeah, obviously I had a bit of time to think about it since then.

12:40You were pretty upset.

12:42Yeah.

12:42You were saying, this kind of changes things for me.

12:47You were making noises like you couldn't do it.

12:56Yeah.

12:57And therefore, you know, you're about to fail.

13:01Jess, after what's just happened, like, a lot has changed.

13:05Like, a lot changed.

13:06My emotions are high.

13:09I'm clearly quite sensitive.

13:11I can be emotionally reactive and eruptive at times.

13:15But, you know, I want to be here for this and I want you to realise that I want to be back where we were before Couples Cove.

13:26Yeah, me too.

13:30So I want to know from you what you're comfortable with both of us doing, both of us bringing the table, to move forward.

13:38Yeah.

13:39There is something I will need from you.

13:41For me, it's going to be a commitment from you that you'll have that voice to be next to me that goes, I don't feel like Sam talks over me or never lets me get a word in.

13:55That would be huge for me to know that I can trust you and that your intentions are genuine and clear.

14:00Because for me, from where I stand, I'm still confused sort of by it.

14:09The straw that broke the camel's back for me.

14:11It was feeling like my partner didn't have my back.

14:15I was accused of not allowing my partner a voice.

14:20And that really hurt me because I tend to think I've got a fairly decent sense of making sure that my partner is heard.

14:27And it sounds like I'm this bully boy partner of Jess's that never lets her speak.

14:34And that's just not the case.

14:36I need to know that you're going to be there for me.

14:40To write this shift.

14:44If this narrative comes up again, I've got to hear, I've got to hear Jess, shut it down immediately.

14:49As Jess and Sam continue to navigate their rocky route to love, the halfway point of the experience is rapidly approaching.

15:04All our couples have now been stranded on Honeymoon Island for 10 days of isolation and a total lack of creature comforts.

15:14For Amy and Mike, the experience has already uncovered new layers in more ways than one.

15:20Oh, look at those abs.

15:21I can't believe it.

15:23Look at those abs.

15:2437 years old, baby.

15:26Woo!

15:26Have you ever had abs before?

15:28Back in the day, yeah.

15:30It was a bit of a younger chicken back then.

15:33Yeah!

15:34Nice.

15:35But the reappearance of Mike's abs isn't the only development on this beach.

15:40At yesterday's Couples Cove, something happened which has changed everything for Amy.

15:46I spot what I want.

15:49My hairbrush!

15:51We got my brush!

15:53We got my brush.

15:54We got my make-up bag.

15:56Oh, my God.

15:57I'm going to be looking so hot.

15:58Oh, my God.

16:00My make-up bag was filled with so many treats.

16:02This is my favourite brush.

16:07I've been dying to get my hands on this.

16:09Oh, my God.

16:10Hair journey this morning.

16:12Oh, gosh.

16:13It's a mountain, but we're going to take baby steps.

16:17I literally have giant dreadlocks.

16:24I think the hair's a bit of a metaphor for Mike and I's relationship.

16:30It started in a big mess.

16:33But little by little, we'll get that.

16:37How's the hair going, Missy?

16:39Um, terribly.

16:41Really?

16:42Let me see.

16:43Ooh.

16:45Ooh.

16:46Is that what you have to do little bit by little bit?

16:49Yeah.

16:49How long is that going to take?

16:50A very, very long time.

16:52Oh, wow.

16:53It's so good to be a guy.

16:55Yeah.

16:55Like, we get to pee standing up.

16:57Yeah.

16:58Rub it in.

16:58We don't have to go through, like, periods and, like, women's stuff.

17:01Yeah.

17:01All right.

17:02Oh, man, it's so good.

17:04We don't have to have babies.

17:06Yeah.

17:06Man, we've got it going on.

17:08Yeah, and you don't have to deal with him.

17:10I don't have to deal with you.

17:11No.

17:11Why don't you go play with the fire?

17:12No.

17:12Yeah.

17:13Yeah.

17:13Can you just appreciate how good this pantry is that I made?

17:25After 10 days on Honeymoon Island, Tom is loving life in the elements.

17:30It looks good.

17:31It's good.

17:32No more mice.

17:32No more rats.

17:33But with the halfway point of the experience rapidly approaching, Emily is hoping to shift

17:38his attention from home improvements to relationship progress.

17:42Well, I have one more thing that you can appreciate.

17:45So, I was feeling inspired by all the girls' new outfits.

17:48I decided to create my own new outfit.

17:51Oh, you haven't...

17:52Because I think my wedding dress can probably retire at this point.

17:54You cut up your wedding dress.

17:56No.

17:57I did something else.

17:58Wait.

17:58I created a turn-skinned top!

18:04Woo!

18:05The relationship with Tom at this point is very stuck.

18:10That actually looks so good.

18:12Does it?

18:14Show me.

18:15Wait.

18:15I can't spin too fast because I don't know how well intact it is.

18:19That looks so good.

18:21I'm trying to show that I'm keen.

18:24You happy with it?

18:25So happy.

18:26You're going to be banging.

18:26But we haven't had a kiss since the intimacy crate.

18:32Do you want to kiss me?

18:36Maybe.

18:48I do really like Tom.

18:51And I do want this to sort of go towards more romantic vibes.

18:55But I'm just not getting it with Tom.

18:58I don't know why.

19:00Eyes are up here.

19:02Do you feel, like, physically attracted to anyone?

19:08Yeah.

19:09It's like, yeah, it feels like saying, like, are you attracted to your sister, you know?

19:24In a way, it kind of feels like that.

19:26How did you go chopping it up without me?

19:28I'm going to chop.

19:29I have more skills than you think.

19:31It's like that spark, that instant kind of attraction is just still missing.

19:36It's not just a pretty face.

19:38I'm not trying to get out of this.

19:40You know, I love being on the island.

19:42And, yeah, part of why I applied for this was because I wanted this experience.

19:49Let's go.

19:50But I don't think I can ever see love developing.

19:55As the sun rises on day 11, the Stranded on Honeymoon Island experience is officially over halfway.

20:17Take a moment for the hair.

20:18And Amy's hair nightmare has finally come to an end.

20:21Wait, I can actually run my hands through it.

20:23You're a tiger, you're a tiger.

20:25Give me...

20:26Oh!

20:27Oh, Amy, you got the sassy walk at the end of it, didn't you?

20:30To celebrate the halfway point of the experience, something has washed up with this morning's high tide.

20:36Oh!

20:37I woke up peeling a million dollars this morning.

20:39My hair is brushed and I'm in a good mood.

20:42I spot this little bottle and I'm like, oh, my God.

20:45Island mail, something's happening today.

20:49Is that another message in a bottle?

20:51It is!

20:52Message in a bottle, babe!

20:53Morning, sunshine.

20:54Hi.

20:55Look what I found soon.

20:57Right, hang on.

20:58Might need you to do that one.

21:00Oh, now I need my help.

21:01All right.

21:04Your island, which was so unfamiliar, has now become your home as you build a life of love.

21:11Cute.

21:11That is why today you are going island humming.

21:16Today you have guests.

21:18Brie and Byron are coming for a double date!

21:19Yeah!

21:20Oh, my God!

21:21Oh, my God!

21:23Oh, my God!

21:24Oh, my God!

21:24Oh!

21:25Oh!

21:27Woo!

21:28Yeah!

21:29That's so sick!

21:31Oh, my God!

21:31Oh, yo!

21:32Brie and Byron are coming to our place.

21:35We're having a function.

21:36Today, three double dates will take place across the islands.

21:43It's a much-needed opportunity for our couples to catch up about their relationships in a more relaxed setting.

21:50And for Sam, it's a chance to set the record straight about the last Couples Cove.

21:55You know I feel like I got made to look like a bit of a schmuck.

21:58It's important for me that Jess takes the lead on the conversation about what transpired at the end of Couples Cove the other day.

22:03I'm hoping that Jess has my back.

22:06Let's go have fun.

22:07Let's say, hey.

22:07And then when the time does come up, explain it, clear it out for me.

22:12Even if you need to say, like, I just want to clear things up for Sam and so we all, you know, whatever.

22:18That would mean a lot.

22:18That would mean the world to me.

22:19And it would be that sort of rebuilding of trust like what we were talking about yesterday.

22:25I do have some nervousness that the story might change when we get there or Jess maybe wants to avoid the conversation.

22:33I don't want to get back to our island this afternoon and having had stuff simmer all day because it wasn't addressed correctly.

22:40And I certainly don't want to make a scene on the double date.

22:43Come on.

22:44I certainly don't want to get back to our island tonight and you and I end up going backwards.

22:48Yeah.

22:52As Jess and Sam prepare to set sail for Georgia and Chad's island, Brie and Byron are already on their way to Amy and Mike's.

23:01I've got the fire ready.

23:03Okay, brilliant.

23:05I'm so excited to host.

23:06I am a dinner party gal.

23:08I love events.

23:10I love setting up.

23:11You're making the runway?

23:13Yep.

23:13Love it.

23:14We've made the camp look so cute.

23:16I hope that they're impressed.

23:17The bed's almost made.

23:20I'm so happy it's Brie and Byron.

23:22I have a really good relationship with Brie.

23:25I brought welcome B&B.

23:28Aw, cute.

23:30I know that they've had a little bit of a struggle in terms of intimacy.

23:34So maybe today, Mike and I could sort of help them on their path.

23:39Yeah, because she wants to get some and he was dilly-dallying.

23:44I'm excited to see if they've progressed to the next step.

23:47Yeah.

23:48I'm sure you'll get to the bottom of it.

23:50I will.

23:50I'm going to get all of the gossip and I can't wait.

23:54I can see a huge spark between Byron and Brie.

23:57I think they're so cute together.

23:58I'm so excited to chat to them.

24:01But they're not getting with each other.

24:03I don't know.

24:03Maybe Byron's just a bit frigid.

24:05Yay!

24:08Hi!

24:09Welcome!

24:11Welcome to the party!

24:13Party all day!

24:16Hi!

24:17I'm so happy it was Amy and Mike.

24:20But mainly Amy.

24:22I love Amy.

24:23We're very similar people.

24:27Hello.

24:29We have spoken about, like, me and Byron's intimacy.

24:33She's obviously going to ask.

24:35Because she was like, no, we're going to turn this around.

24:37I'm like, good luck!

24:40Welcome.

24:41Cheers, guys!

24:42All cured, everyone.

24:42Thank you for coming on our island.

24:44Thank you for having us.

24:44Thanks for having an amazing lunch.

24:46And no doubt, Amy will get involved with some drama later.

24:52I love it.

24:53Cheers, guys!

24:54Cheers!

24:54Welcome!

24:55Voila!

24:57I always feel comfortable to ask hard questions.

25:00So, yeah, I'll definitely be asking them about their intimacy.

25:04I plan to ask them right off the boat.

25:08Okay, I need to know.

25:10Have you done the deed?

25:11No, do you?

25:12Man.

25:13I feel like there's no romance in there.

25:15Well, let's try and spark that up today.

25:16Yeah, maybe.

25:17He's the one who hasn't really been wanting to be that intimate.

25:21I've got a smoker at home.

25:22Oh, yeah, yeah, nice.

25:24Mental.

25:24Like, smoking meat?

25:26I get all horny about it.

25:28I feel like he was really into me at first, and then it's like, it kind of like, then

25:33now I, then I got really into him, and then it kind of swapped.

25:34Oh, no, is it your personality?

25:36Maybe.

25:37I don't think he likes my personality.

25:41Oh, no.

25:42Impossible.

25:43I'm kidding.

25:43We can flip this.

25:44Can we?

25:45There was so much chemistry between you guys.

25:47That's like, it's gone.

25:48No, you can bring it back.

25:50Yeah?

25:50Yeah, fully.

25:51I believe that Brie and Byron can get the romance going.

25:56Yeah, crazier things have happened.

25:58Who would have thought I'd be in a good place with Mike?

26:01All right, everyone grab a salmon.

26:03Grab a salmon.

26:03There you go.

26:04There you go.

26:07Tell me, Byron, how are you feeling?

26:15I feel like I'm still kind of like going day by day.

26:17What does that mean?

26:19I'm not rushing anything.

26:20Do you feel like you guys are moving forward?

26:22In some ways, yes.

26:23Tell me more.

26:27I feel like every day we get more and more comfortable with each other and have fun together.

26:33When it comes to like the intimacy side and relationship sort of side of things, maybe that's getting a little bit tough.

26:41Like, Byron is such a good guy.

26:47He is a really good guy.

26:48But I think, I don't know, it's hard to say where we're standing at the moment.

26:54So in a nutshell, you're just trying to take things slow.

26:59Yeah.

27:00And building process.

27:01Yeah.

27:02I think our relationship is growing.

27:03Yeah.

27:04Maybe not as fast as either of us live.

27:07I think we do have a very special connection.

27:10I think I'm just worried it's turning into a friendship.

27:15That scares me.

27:18When I'm on friendship island, like, we're married.

27:21It sucks to think that we're not working romantically.

27:26And it's hard to keep going here knowing that.

27:30Like, what's the point?

27:31Like, I could just go home.

27:34I'm not saying nothing can grow either.

27:37But we don't have any romance.

27:40Are you guys both open to, like, moving forward in that direction?

27:44Honestly, I think Bree is beautiful in so many different ways.

27:48Are you guys attracted to each other?

27:51Honestly, I think Bree is beautiful in so many different ways.

28:17And you are very attractive.

28:18It's just, like, there's just been no real connection on that kind of intimacy side, you know?

28:23And I, like, I get caught up in my own head thinking about all that stuff.

28:28I'm not trying to do anything I don't want to do as well, you know?

28:30I feel like it's got to be organic.

28:32And I feel like those feelings will hopefully come.

28:36Bree, do you, when he says that, do you believe that?

28:39I, yeah.

28:41But, like, to be honest, I need intimacy.

28:49Yeah, I think it has plateaued a tiny bit into a friendship.

28:53I think we're being less affectionate and we don't cuddle at night that much anymore.

28:58I feel like it's going downhill in that sense.

29:00Did you start off doing that, now you've grown apart in that way?

29:03I think so, yeah.

29:07It's hard, it is hard to hear that.

29:09I think Bree thinks we're kind of still treading water, you know?

29:13The last few days have been really tough.

29:15And, you know, she thinks our friend's owned her.

29:18And, yeah, maybe she's right.

29:20One thing about this island, this experience, and I'm even surprised to say this about myself,

29:27is it brings out everything.

29:29You can't run, you have to actually attack it straight on.

29:32Yeah.

29:34I feel like there's definitely been sparks in our relationship between Bree and I,

29:38and there is an attraction there for sure.

29:40It comes and goes.

29:43But, you know, we're halfway through the adventure,

29:47and there's only a short amount of time left.

29:50Can we find the spark?

29:54I don't know.

29:56Well, Byron, you'd better figure it out,

29:59because you're at the halfway point of this experience.

30:03Meanwhile, Danny and Emmanuel are awaiting the arrival of Emily and Tom,

30:07who've had a checkered history in this experience, to say the least.

30:11I found out last night Tom's got a girl on the outside.

30:15What?

30:15That's really hard on Emily and completely unfair.

30:18How they move forward from this, I don't know.

30:21You look loved up!

30:23I'm doing a lot better.

30:24Tom and I are in a really good place.

30:26We are having the most amount of fun.

30:28That's good.

30:28It's so lovely.

30:30But I don't know if he's willing to go there romantically with me.

30:35Do you want to go there with him?

30:37I think I do.

30:38I think Tom and I are trying.

30:39They're really trying.

30:40Emily's here for it.

30:41Tom probably isn't.

30:42Yeah.

30:43But they're giving it a red-hot go.

30:44Yeah.

30:48Welcome, welcome, welcome.

30:51Look, Emmanuel and I are great hosts, and I'm really excited to have Tom and Emily here.

30:55You know, we want to have a deep chat, figure out what's really going on under the surface,

30:59and hopefully find some resolution for them so they can move forward.

31:03They've got some new fit on.

31:05I like it.

31:05I know, I've got a new outfit.

31:07I like it.

31:08Love it.

31:09I think Emily does have feelings for Tom.

31:12I just don't think that Tom's giving it 110%.

31:14You want some coconuts?

31:16Yeah.

31:16I like that.

31:17I don't know whether Emily's just living in, you know, ignorant bliss, or whether she's just really optimistic,

31:22or whether she's just holding out and hoping for the best.

31:25All right, let's go.

31:25Check out the set-up.

31:26I love your wizard style.

31:27I'm still trying to get to know Tom.

31:28I'm just a little bit unsure as to, like, how he feels or where he stands with the relationship with Emily.

31:36Well, hey, Chiefs, guys.

31:37Cheers.

31:37Welcome.

31:38Welcome.

31:38Thanks for having us.

31:39You're welcome.

31:39No worries.

31:41Ah, well, yeah.

31:42Oh.

31:43What's the latest?

31:44No, we actually are having a good time.

31:47Yeah.

31:48I keep saying, I'm like, we have the most amount of fun.

31:50Yeah.

31:50We get along like a house on fire.

31:52It's just that, like, next step that we're really struggling to get to.

31:56Yeah.

31:57Do you want to get to the next step?

32:01At this point in time?

32:05I think so.

32:06It scares me.

32:08Hmm.

32:08It makes me nervous, because I'm like, well, what if I do allow myself to have feelings?

32:13Hmm.

32:14And then all the feelings that, you know, had happened at the start, what if they come back?

32:18Because it did hurt.

32:19I definitely feel like I've got a guard up when it comes to Tom.

32:22Obviously, with everything that's happened, I don't want to put myself out there too much and then get hurt in the end.

32:29Do you think that you would need to hear, like, a full confirmation from Tom to be able to be, like, even enter that place?

32:35I think so, yeah.

32:38And how willing, I guess, do you feel to do that?

32:42Like, I'm willing, for sure.

32:45Yeah.

32:45It's just, yeah, it's probably, I just don't know how to do these things.

32:52I think there's things that I still need to pick up my game and still need to work on.

32:57What I need most from Tom is just for him to give me black and white.

33:01Like, I'm willing to give this 100%, but I'm sick of all the talk.

33:07I need, I need action at this point.

33:11Do you want to start some water maybe, babe?

33:14Yeah, yeah, yeah.

33:14For the pasta?

33:15Yeah.

33:15How are you going?

33:20Yeah, good.

33:21Yeah?

33:21Good.

33:21It's, it's for me, I'm just stuck in this, like, do I keep trying, do I give up?

33:26Mmm.

33:27But, and like, again, like, we have, we have so much fun, but there's more to a relationship

33:34than just fun and physical connection.

33:35Fun, exactly.

33:36Do you trust him to keep trying?

33:38Like, do you trust him enough to be able to open up and keep trying?

33:46You and Emily, is it a thing that is going to be a thing, or do you feel like you guys

33:52are on friendship vibe, right, still?

33:54Yeah, we're still, we're still on friendship vibe.

33:56Um, we really have to kind of really work on the intimacy side, like the physical intimacy,

34:03emotional intimacy.

34:04Was that even something you want?

34:07Yeah, it's hard at the moment.

34:13No.

34:16Like, then, you know, you just have to be honest.

34:21This is that hard pill of truth you've got to swallow because it just is better when you

34:27say it.

34:28Do you get what I mean?

34:29Like, that's what you need to do.

34:32I really think that Tom has to grow a bit of a backbone.

34:35It's way better for him to clear it out right now and say, hey, look, I don't want to lead

34:40you on or drag you down this path anymore.

34:43I just hope he does the right thing.

34:45Today, all our couples are on double dates across the islands.

34:58On Amy and Mike's beach, Byron has admitted that halfway through the experience, he's still

35:04struggling to connect with his wife, Bree, on a romantic level.

35:08OK, let's go.

35:09And Amy has pulled him aside to dig deeper and find out why.

35:14I'm totally rooting for Bree and Byron, but I think maybe Byron has some walls up and yeah,

35:24I'm really hoping that I can crack those down.

35:27What is the deal?

35:29Talk to me.

35:31What would you like to know?

35:32Well, OK, you and Bree, you had an instant connection.

35:36You seem to be into each other.

35:38Things seem to like pop off on day one and then they seem to have gone downhill.

35:43So what's the go?

35:45I don't think it's gone downhill.

35:49Like, are you into it?

35:52It's so tricky to say yes or no.

35:55Like, I am into her in a lot of ways, but that physical way, I don't know.

36:01Did you feel it at the start?

36:03When I saw Bree, I was like, oh, awesome.

36:06Like, I had a massive grin on my face, you know.

36:08And I saw that in her too, you know.

36:10Yeah, yeah.

36:12When I first met Bree at the altar there, you know, I felt like there was an instant chemistry.

36:21Hi.

36:22How are you?

36:23You look so beautiful.

36:25You look so cute.

36:27You look so weird.

36:29Wow.

36:32Wow.

36:33I'm so happy.

36:33Yeah, me too.

36:35But as time went on, we had our hurdles.

36:37And I feel like the big ick is the way Bree does love drama.

36:44And after the first couple's cove, I feel like the spark sort of started failing and falling away.

36:50You know, the question is, how do we recover from this?

36:54Can we find the spark?

36:55Or is this it?

36:57It feels like it's a make or break scenario.

37:00Like, we're over halfway now.

37:02Do you reckon there might be any part of you that gets to the end of this?

37:06Yeah.

37:06And, like, regrets, like, regrets, like, not having tried harder.

37:12I came here for something real, you know, I came here for something real, you know, to find love and, you know, I don't want to look back and regret not trying it because you don't want to wake up thinking, what if?

37:21Yeah, for sure.

37:22Yeah, for sure, I think, I think that was, you have that in every sort of aspect of life.

37:27You were matched for a reason.

37:29And the intimacy is a very important part of a relationship.

37:32Would it be the worst thing to just, like, I don't know, have a more passionate kiss?

37:37That conversation, it did bring up some feelings and it did make me wonder.

37:42Yeah, I'm here to give this a crack and the door hasn't closed at all.

37:49I'm still here.

37:52Byron's door might still be open, but on Danny and Emanuel's beach, Tom has just privately admitted to Emanuel that for him and Emily, the door is firmly closed.

38:04All right, let's get to eating.

38:06I'm hungry.

38:06It's a black and white situation right now.

38:09Emily's definitely here for a relationship.

38:11She really came onto this experience to actually find love.

38:15Does Tom really want to actually give this opportunity a try?

38:19But I'd say no, no way.

38:21I really think that Tom has to grow a bit of a backbone.

38:25Bro, just be honest.

38:26So how do you feel now, Tom?

38:28Like, how do you feel towards Emily?

38:29You guys keep saying, we're friends, we get along really well, we have the same sense of humour.

38:34Yeah, at the moment with Emily, taking into account everything that's happened,

38:38and I don't know if it's, if we're going to be able to turn it into something, like, romantic.

38:43Yeah.

38:43But, you know, I'm hopeful.

38:48You know, I've said in the past that, like, she's not my type originally, but, like, I can see, like, how attractive you are,

38:55and there's so many qualities that I like about you.

38:57Oh, my God, this guy's, like, all over the place.

39:01He's obviously just dilly-dallying around the point and not really, you know, being black or white about it.

39:07It's way better for him to clear it out right now and say, hey, look, we're just friends.

39:13I don't want to lead you on or drag you down this path anymore.

39:16Are you feeling relationship or friendship at this present moment?

39:22Again, I just don't know.

39:23Yeah, it's like, yeah, I want to trust this whole process and really throw myself in, but it's a hard position.

39:28Well, seeing this, like, the last week, you kind of, there's something you need to just decide on, and you're the only one that knows, you know,

39:43and you kind of just have to make a strong, definitive decision on that egg.

39:47If you're already kind of feeling like, okay, well, outside this, I don't see it going past what I've done,

39:52I guess you just have to be honest.

39:54So it helps Emily just breathe, you know?

40:02You're just going to have to step up, otherwise you're going to just both be kind of sitting in this, like, I don't know.

40:07Limbo, 100%.

40:07I don't know.

40:09And it should be now.

40:13Do you want to, like, at the moment, do you see me as a friend or do you see me as something that can potentially happen between us?

40:20I'll admit, like, I'd love to have the feelings of love.

40:26I would love that.

40:30Yeah, okay.

40:31And what is it that you need from me?

40:35I just need you to, like, try.

40:38Like, I don't feel like I'm asking for a lot.

40:43Let's be real, he's not trying.

40:45At this point in time, I have no idea why Tom is even here.

40:48Maybe he wanted a holiday.

40:51I'm not going to lie, it's a great place for a holiday.

40:55I'm wasting my time.

40:56Like, if I'm being completely honest, I am wasting my time.

41:01I don't know if I can do it any longer.

41:05With this half-assed partner, husband.

41:08Jess and Sam are on their way to Georgia and Chad's island for a double date.

41:37An outing which has arrived at a critical moment for the couple after drama at Couples Cove pushed their relationship to breaking point.

41:46After yesterday, I do feel a little bit like I'm walking on eggshells with Sam.

41:51I don't want to disrupt the peace between us.

41:54Yeah, I think I'm so hopeful that I can, that the connection has legs and it's going to work out that I'm kind of putting on a brave face and holding it together right now.

42:07Hello!

42:09And I'm hoping that getting off the island will take, like, a little bit of pressure off.

42:13I just like to have fun and enjoy each other's company.

42:16No more drama.

42:17Welcome to the Big Malala!

42:26What an entrance!

42:28How are you, mate?

42:29Good to see you, brother.

42:31Mate, you look amazing!

42:32The plan for today is just to keep it fun.

42:35Hi, Georgia.

42:37To get Chad and Georgia, I am over the moon.

42:40They're the couple out of everyone that I would choose to have lunch with for sure.

42:44And I'm not bagging everyone else, but I really, I love Chad.

42:48I think he is just the bee's knees.

42:50Can I just tell you something first before we get going, right?

42:53This morning, I was just standing at the water.

42:56Then I noticed this big fish and this wave hit it and it went, landed in slow motion in front of my feet.

43:04You're kidding.

43:05Stop it.

43:05You are kidding.

43:06Oh, my God!

43:07What?

43:11There is a fish!

43:12Oh, look at that!

43:13Ah!

43:14Ah!

43:14Oh, God!

43:15Shit!

43:16Oh, my God!

43:17Oh, my God!

43:18Oh, my God!

43:19Babe, babe, we've got a fish!

43:28This is the fish!

43:31It literally jumped into my hands.

43:33It's like over two kilos.

43:36So, that's our lunch today, guys.

43:37How serious is this?

43:38Like, who better to share it with?

43:40A gift from the island gods.

43:42I just want everyone to have fun, everyone to have a good time.

43:44We're on an island.

43:46We should be feeling grateful for this experience.

43:48So, the fish, it was a very good omen.

43:51I think it's going to be a really good day.

43:53Well, do you want to gut the fish and I can do that?

43:55Yeah, okay.

43:56Sounds good.

43:56Do you want to gut the fish?

43:57I'll come over with Chardon.

43:58Yeah.

43:59Do you want to come with me to the watering hole?

44:01Yeah, I'm going to take my emotional support water bottle.

44:03Yeah, you go.

44:04It goes everywhere over here.

44:05It was really good to see Jess today.

44:07I was thinking about her after the last Couples Cove with all the drama.

44:13I wanted to check in on her.

44:16So, what did you guys do yesterday?

44:19Um, fought, mostly.

44:21Oh.

44:22How do you feel after Couples Cove?

44:24Oh, it was big.

44:25Yeah.

44:25Um, the Emanuel stuff.

44:28Yeah.

44:28It was not good.

44:29It was not good at all.

44:30Let me know if you need a hand at all.

44:33Oh, yeah.

44:34Yum.

44:36You only got to do it once, dude.

44:37I didn't expect to see that.

44:37You got to do it once.

44:39That's it, man.

44:39That's it.

44:41All the stuff at the table happened.

44:43I had a bit of a chat to Emanuel.

44:45Yeah, what was that chat about?

44:47He kind of said, like, I just want to make sure that you're being heard.

44:52Mm.

44:53Um, yeah.

44:55In the relationship and you're not, like, and you're being listened to and not just, like, spoken to.

45:00Okay.

45:01It kind of, like, got a bit heavy for me internally because I don't want to be a woman in a relationship that's not being heard.

45:09And then you, like, get in your head about it.

45:10Yeah.

45:11Especially, yeah, if someone says something from the outside, yeah, of course you're going to, like, think about it and be like, oh, my God, am I in that situation?

45:19Yeah, like, I was like, I need to check myself because I don't want to be that person.

45:23Maybe that's the observation that he's made about me.

45:25To be honest, I do have a little bit of fear that within this relationship I'm not being as vocal or as assertive as I should be and as I would like to be.

45:35I know that Sam wants me to say that it's not the case but that realisation that I might be losing myself scares me.

45:46But Jess isn't the only one worried that she's losing her voice and Sam's behaviour at Couples Cove is the hot topic across all our double dates.

45:56Jess says that she's happy with Sam but I think there's more that's going on behind closed doors.

46:01I don't like that Sam aggressively speaks over the top of people, including his wife.

46:07He comes up with a little manipulative and, like, totally.

46:11Gaslight, a bit gaslighty.

46:13Oh, gas, gaslight central.

46:17I think Jess might overlook some of his red flags because she actually wants to make this work.

46:24I see where you're coming from.

46:25Yeah.

46:27She chooses harmony.

46:28Are we happy to talk about the elephant in the room?

46:34Yeah, yeah, I've been...

46:35I'm definitely keen to talk about sort of what happened that day.

46:38Yeah, let's talk about that.

46:39Are we happy to bring that up?

46:40Yeah, absolutely.

46:41No, we'd love to.

46:42You please, Jess, like, by all means, tell us.

46:44Yeah, yesterday was...

46:45Fill everyone in on what's been going on.

46:47It's important for me that Jess takes the lead on the conversation about what transpired at the end of Couples Cove the other day.

46:53Jess and I have already cleared up the talking over her at the table.

46:56Jess has said she's going to come to the table for that one and reiterate that.

47:00It's just not true.

47:02So I went off to the bar and Emmanuel got up at the same time and he said, do you want to have a chat?

47:11And I said, yeah, that'd be nice.

47:12We started talking and the first thing he said to me was, I just want to make sure you're being heard and you're being listened to in the relationship, not being spoken to.

47:27And he said, from what I can see from you, you're a very emotionally intelligent woman and you're very articulate and sometimes Sam just seems to speak for you.

47:38Can I ask what your response to that comment was?

47:47I kind of was like, really?

47:49I was confused and I went into like, I kind of mentally imploded because I was like, am I not being heard?

48:00Like, what's going on?

48:01Is that what's happening here?

48:03And then I started stressing about the relationship, I guess.

48:08Yeah.

48:08I mean, yeah.

48:10Sam is, Sam is louder than me.

48:13And sometimes he's just like, you know what?

48:15Like, I'm going to jump in for a little bit, I think.

48:18I'm a little bit lost because yesterday Jess said that I don't speak over her in this relationship.

48:25I'm starting to get a little confused and stuff to wear this.

48:31We've spoken about this.

48:34I mean, you've said to me already in a private setting that that wasn't the case.

48:48Yep, yep.

49:11You second guess.

49:12Yeah, I was second guessing.

49:17I'm over the drama.

49:18I'm over it.

49:19I really thought Jess and I have already cleared up the talking over her at the table.

49:23Like, why are we having this conversation again, 24 hours later?

49:30I'm confused.

49:32I'm worried that more drama is going to come from this before it actually gets better.

49:36So how are you guys going to move forward now?

49:38Honestly, you guys, like, I can't stress it enough.

49:42Like, I cannot stress it enough.

49:44I have had enough drama in my past 12 months.

49:52I am not here for this shit.

49:56I'm not here for it.

49:58I am seriously at my wit's end with this shit.

50:01Like, I'm fully at my wit's end.

50:02How much do I want this to work out?

50:07I want this to work out more than anything else.

50:09If I didn't, I wouldn't be here.

50:11But I am sick of the drama.

50:14I've had a crazy year going through a really toxic breakup and most of all, losing my dad,

50:20watching my mum lose her soulmate and her partner.

50:23I came here looking for love.

50:25I came here looking to fall in love.

50:27I remember feeling really excited at the start of this experience.

50:30There's a connection there.

50:32I can see it.

50:33Jess can see it.

50:34I can feel it.

50:35But I'm constantly fighting a losing battle, questioning whether I can actually trust it.

50:40Like, we're in a really unique experience and there will be blow-ups.

50:45There will be, you know, maybe an argument or something.

50:49But it's about how you guys come back together and then move past it.

50:53I've got to think about whether I have the time, whether I have the patience, whether

50:59I feel like Jess is the one for me to put another six months of work into.

51:04Like, this has been fast-tracked.

51:09Every day, Sam and I go from zero to 100.

51:13One step forward, two steps back, and, yeah, you worry about where we're going to be when

51:20we get home tonight.

51:23As the day comes to an end, it's time for all our couples to say goodbye and return to

51:29their married bubbles.

51:30Love you having you guys.

51:32Love you.

51:33See you guys.

51:34See you guys.

51:35I miss you already.

51:36Take care.

51:36Bye, guys.

51:37Bye-bye.

51:38But today's double dates have had a massive impact.

51:46I did feel like, for the first time, I was, like, telling someone, this has plateaued into

51:51a friendship hardcore.

51:53We haven't been progressing, and I'm questioning, what's the point?

52:00For Emily, a day with Danny and Emmanuel has her doubting Tom's commitment to the experience

52:05more than ever.

52:06I just have a slight feeling Tom's freaking out.

52:09He's been told by multiple people he needs to start telling me how he feels.

52:15Are you 100% in or 100% out?

52:18What I need is the truth.

52:19But the day is not over yet.

52:32While the double dates have been taking place, something has come in with the high tide.

52:39Is that another crate?

52:42Is that a crate?

52:44At the halfway point of the experience, this crate has arrived carrying something that

52:50will test our couples like never before.

52:53Ah!

52:54What's it going to be?

52:55A single item which will change the course of this experience for good.

53:01Do you want to open it?

53:01Yeah.

53:02Let's do it.

53:02Ready?

53:07Yep.

53:09Ooh.

53:10What the hell?

53:14Newly wedged.

53:14If you don't think there's a future for love or growth with the person next to you, pull

53:19the flare.

53:22You will leave Honeymoon Island for good.

53:27Just think about it.

53:29Your decision.

53:30No way!

53:31This is a huge game changer.

53:38We have an out here.

53:53Is that another crate?

53:56No.

53:57Couldn't be.

53:57At the halfway point of the Stranded on Honeymoon Island experience, a crate has arrived, containing

54:05one single item with the potential to change everything.

54:11Ah!

54:12What's it going to be?

54:14Oh, God.

54:15Oh, my God.

54:20What the hell?

54:24Newly wedged.

54:25If you don't think there's a future for love or growth with the person next to you, pull

54:29the flare.

54:33You will leave Honeymoon Island for good.

54:37This flare can only be used until tomorrow afternoon.

54:41Just think about it.

54:42Your decision.

54:42No way!

54:43No way!

54:45Whoa!

54:47Big one!

54:48Game changer.

54:49It's a game changer.

54:50Yep.

54:50This flare, if pulled by sundown tomorrow, will trigger an immediate island rescue.

54:59Straight for the flare.

55:00The couple will abandon the experience and their dreams of a happy ending.

55:06Do we need this?

55:08The flare is a way out and I've been a bit of a flight risk this whole time.

55:12In past relationships, when things get tough, I run.

55:17And it's a common pattern that I do.

55:21Like, there's been so many times in this journey that I'm like, take me home.

55:27The fact that we haven't been progressing does scare me.

55:31And now I have an out.

55:32Let's just put the flare in arm's reach, but a little bit of distance, just in case.

55:44How do you feel about this?

55:46We have an out here.

55:51I don't even know how I feel about this.

55:57Is there a future for love or growth with the person next to you?

56:02This is a huge game changer.

56:10I don't really know at this point in time what I'm going to do.

56:18This is without a doubt one of the biggest decisions of my life.

56:21I came here with the best of intentions.

56:26I've been single seven years.

56:28I wanted this to work.

56:31I really did.

56:32And I tried everything.

56:34I don't know at this point anymore.

56:36And I just...

56:38I don't...

56:40Yeah.

56:41I don't know whether to give up or not.

56:44Yeah.

56:45Yeah.

56:45That's stressful.

57:09Wasn't expecting this.

57:10It's huge.

57:15A lot to think about, hey?

57:16Yeah.

57:17Especially in light of the last three days.

57:21Dating and relationship coach Jess would say, pull the flare and run.

57:25There's been red flags with Sam, but I still see potential with him.

57:33I'm not going to pull the flare, but Sam is pretty emotionally reactive, so there's certainly

57:38a little bit of nervousness around him delivering his decision.

57:43I'm speechless.

57:46I'm speechless.

57:46Yeah.

57:47We've got an eject button.

57:49The flare is a way out.

57:54I have definitely thought about getting out of here.

57:57I think you know how big it's been for Jess and I, the last 48, 24, 72 hours.

58:03Take your pick.

58:04This experience has been hectic.

58:07I'm looking for love.

58:10And the biggest thing for me is, after all the drama, can I find it with Jess?

58:16Still to come.

58:28I think I just heard a flare.

58:30That's a flare.

58:31That's a flare?

58:34Who?

58:35I didn't think this would be so hard.

58:37Hold.

58:38I need to start thinking with my head and not my heart.

58:41The flare.

58:42Trust is a non-negotiable in a relationship, and once it's broken, it's hard to rebuild.

58:47Someone's going to get hurt.
