00:00:01Previously...
00:00:02What?
00:00:03That's huge.
00:00:04Our couples were given the option to meet
00:00:06who else they could have been matched with.
00:00:09That's it!
00:00:10Rhi and Jeff turned down the opportunity.
00:00:13I couldn't be happier with where we're at in our relationship.
00:00:15I think it would be very silly right now to throw that away.
00:00:20And despite secretly swapping numbers
00:00:22with the other person she was compatible with...
00:00:25You've got great posture and your pats are so strong.
00:00:28They're like real pats.
00:00:30Jackie celebrated her newfound appreciation for Ryan.
00:00:34Have a seat.
00:00:36Most of the couples took the option.
00:00:38I'm Adrian, nice to meet you.
00:00:39I'm Athena, do we?
00:00:41But Athena regretted her decision.
00:00:43I'm upset by our actions.
00:00:45My biggest worry was that you and I both went.
00:00:48I'm not worried, I couldn't care less.
00:00:50So if you're so happy, why are you here?
00:00:53Um...
00:00:54And when Paul's curiosity got the better of him...
00:00:57It's not cheating!
00:00:58It is!
00:00:59I don't appreciate that!
00:01:00You should know my morals!
00:01:01Karina drew her line in the sand.
00:01:04I'm so ready to go home without you.
00:01:07I'm actually done.
00:01:08Get your shit and leave.
00:01:13Tonight...
00:01:14Dinner is served.
00:01:16It's been such a wild ride.
00:01:18Cheers!
00:01:19It's the last dinner party of the experiment.
00:01:23It's been amazing.
00:01:24All our hard work that we've put in.
00:01:27I'm just so proud of us that we're here right now.
00:01:30While some are feeling stronger than ever...
00:01:32Grass is greener when you water it.
00:01:34Ryan and I, we're still watering our grass and it's still growing and we're happy.
00:01:37The same cannot be said for Athena and Adrian.
00:01:41It was a date and yeah, I regret it.
00:01:44He and I failed each other that day.
00:01:46Do you see any point going to final vows?
00:01:49Um...
00:01:50Like if you're truly happy with your relationship, you wouldn't have gone on a date.
00:01:53I wasn't thinking straight.
00:01:54It is not an excuse.
00:01:55Can Paul win back Karina's trust?
00:01:58It makes me feel sick.
00:01:59Everything that we have built together, it's out the window for me.
00:02:03And I'm so sorry for that.
00:02:04Try harder.
00:02:05No, I'm a catch.
00:02:07Anyone would die to be with me.
00:02:09Or will one shocking comment...
00:02:12Whoa, look.
00:02:15..see the couple implode right before final vows?
00:02:19Are you serious?
00:02:31Well, I'm certainly not filling the beers this morning.
00:02:33Yeah, I've just been reflecting and looking back on this stupid decision that I made yesterday,
00:02:40to go on this stupid date.
00:02:52Hey.
00:02:53Good, Paul.
00:02:54Hello.
00:02:55I'm Hannah.
00:02:56We'll do two.
00:02:57So if you're so happy, why are you here?
00:03:00Why are we on a date?
00:03:02Does she know that you're here?
00:03:07Have you done this in past relationships?
00:03:11Why didn't it work out with your wife?
00:03:21So I've got good news?
00:03:22Yeah.
00:03:23Oh, yay!
00:03:24What do you mean?
00:03:25Did you go?
00:03:26No, I did, I did, I did.
00:03:27But don't worry, it was...
00:03:29You went?
00:03:32No.
00:03:33No, no, no, no, no.
00:03:34There's no going past this.
00:03:35I understand.
00:03:36Like, you did not consider how I was going to feel again.
00:03:38And...
00:03:39Again, Paul.
00:03:40I...
00:03:41No, f*** this.
00:03:42Like, I'm not even...
00:03:43I'm not...
00:03:44I don't care.
00:03:45Like, that was the last straw.
00:03:46You say that because...
00:03:47You say that because you're angry about now.
00:03:48No, I'm done.
00:03:49I don't want anything to do with this.
00:03:50But, you're...
00:04:02Yeah, and I'm...
00:04:03Extremely remorseful, and I miss Karina.
00:04:05Like, I just, yeah, I'm just, yeah, I'm just stupid, that's, that's, yeah.
00:04:16As Paul navigates the consequences of the final task, across the hall, a heartbroken
00:04:25Karina is still processing and attempting to adjust to living in the marital home alone.
00:04:32Paul's actions, yeah, have definitely made me question our relationship.
00:04:38If he was, like, sincere and a realist and, you know, for the right reasons, it's draining,
00:04:48yeah, it's, you just want to sleep.
00:04:51I feel completely disrespected and embarrassed.
00:04:56My, like, the person that I am, like, I am such a, like, a loving, caring, gentle person,
00:05:06like, my soul and, like, try to be the best person I can be.
00:05:12But if anyone, like, oversteps that, then obviously my horns are going to come up.
00:05:17And that's exactly what's happened.
00:05:19I just feel like, yeah, I don't, I don't think there's any coming back from this.
00:05:24Like, I forgave him for other things that happened throughout the experiment and that was a big one for me.
00:05:36As Karina contemplates her future,
00:05:43the rest of the couples are getting ready for the final dinner party.
00:05:51Tonight is also the last time the group will be together before final vows.
00:05:59For Ree and Jeff, the final task only solidified their commitment to one another.
00:06:05And with the end of the experiment around the corner, the couple are reminiscing on the good times spent together.
00:06:13Hello.
00:06:14You look so good.
00:06:16I love the green.
00:06:17You look awesome.
00:06:19I feel great going into the dinner party with Ree tonight.
00:06:22We're in a great spot.
00:06:23We both said no to the task from the experts.
00:06:26I feel really strong with our relationship.
00:06:28Walking into the last dinner party together hand in hand in a romantic, solid relationship feels great.
00:06:33Do you remember our first dinner party?
00:06:35Yeah, I was so nervous.
00:06:36We were both so nervous.
00:06:37I was so nervous.
00:06:38We were just standing there behind that door shaking.
00:06:40Yeah.
00:06:41And it's weird to think that we were actually friends then.
00:06:43100%.
00:06:44I think thinking back on that first dinner party, like, yeah, we were friends, but also we just had each other's back.
00:06:50Like, and we, you know.
00:06:51We still held hands going in.
00:06:52Yeah, we held hands.
00:06:53Like, we were supportive of each other.
00:06:55And like, as scary and as daunting as it was, like, I still knew you were there for me.
00:06:59I never in my wildest dreams thought that I'd be walking into the dinner party with Jeff as strong as we are.
00:07:06Obviously from walking down the aisle to someone I dated, to being in the friend zone for like three or four weeks,
00:07:13to now being at the final dinner party, a really strong couple.
00:07:17It feels very, um, I feel very proud of us.
00:07:20It is, it is crazy thinking about how far we've come.
00:07:23And this is the last night in this house.
00:07:25Last one.
00:07:26A lot of lass.
00:07:27A lot of lass.
00:07:28But many first on their way.
00:07:30True.
00:07:31The final task has also done wonders for Jackie and Ryan.
00:07:38And peace has been restored to their relationship.
00:07:42But Jackie is feeling sentimental about it being the final dinner party of the experiment.
00:07:55You look so beautiful.
00:07:57I know, but it makes me sad that this will be our last dinner.
00:08:03It's been unbelievable for me.
00:08:06I've learned so much from this relationship.
00:08:08I've learned so much from you.
00:08:11You got me gifts.
00:08:13We drank some red wine.
00:08:14We cooked together.
00:08:15Made pasta.
00:08:16Yeah.
00:08:17I didn't know how open to that I was going to be, but I just, I just let it flow.
00:08:24Despite their united front, unbeknownst to husband Ryan, during the final task, Jackie swapped numbers with the other person she was compatible with.
00:08:35Well, I will be out of this experiment in probably 10 days.
00:08:3910 days.
00:08:43If you want to give me your number, then I can text you.
00:08:46If you want to stay in touch, we should.
00:08:48We'll be great.
00:08:49Yeah.
00:08:50Yeah.
00:08:51Did you tell Ryan that you swapped numbers with Rory?
00:08:53Um, I didn't tell Ryan that I swapped numbers with Rory, but he didn't ask, so it's okay.
00:09:00I think this was a real marriage.
00:09:02And I think we've had the opportunity to go through challenges together and overcome them as a couple.
00:09:08And I think in terms of the most successful marriage, I would say ours is probably the most successful marriage out of all of them.
00:09:14Across the hall, however, it's an entirely different story for Beth and TJ.
00:09:27I mean, obviously, he wrote Lee at the committing ceremony.
00:09:31Like, if I'd have written Lee, we would have gone and never spoken to each other again.
00:09:35So, we started the week off really, um, it was awkward.
00:09:39It didn't feel nice.
00:09:40It was animosity.
00:09:41We both then chose to go on our final dates with our other matches, which completely threw me.
00:09:48Like, I guess, with the mindset I was going, I was trying to get some, I guess, get rid of some head noise and see where that sort of pushed me, whether it was to or from you.
00:10:00And it kind of just left me neutral, to be completely honest with you.
00:10:06Excellent.
00:10:08Walking in with TJ tonight is not the nicest feeling.
00:10:11You know, when I go back to our first couple of dinner parties, I always felt so confident and so proud and so good walking in with TJ.
00:10:17Tonight, bit of a different story.
00:10:19There's a lot of tension, animosity, it's not feeling good.
00:10:22But I think tonight is going to be a big one.
00:10:25The most chaotic of them all.
00:10:29Whilst Beth grapples with a sense of finality, Adrian is embracing the nostalgia of the final days of the experiment.
00:10:38Tonight's the final dinner party.
00:10:40Actually, it'll be sad.
00:10:42Yeah?
00:10:43I feel like it was yesterday we had our first dinner party and today is the last one.
00:10:47Some good times and some bad times at these dinner parties.
00:10:50Little does he know why Fafina is still crestfallen after both chose to participate in the final task.
00:11:00I still think if you were to ask Adrian right now what I'm upset about, he would just say she's in a bad mood.
00:11:05Like, he just doesn't understand.
00:11:08Are you ready to go?
00:11:11Are you excited?
00:11:13He and I failed each other that day.
00:11:17Did you go?
00:11:18Yeah.
00:11:19You did?
00:11:20Yeah.
00:11:21I went on mine.
00:11:23Yeah, that's fine.
00:11:24I'm not worried.
00:11:26I couldn't care less.
00:11:30Yeah, I don't know.
00:11:31I just expected a stronger reaction from Adrian.
00:11:34I just went and hung out with the guy.
00:11:36Yeah.
00:11:37And you don't care.
00:11:38I care that you went.
00:11:39My perspective, it was a task, it wasn't a date.
00:11:42It hurts me because I know that he is so not aware of the situation and he doesn't understand that his actions have repercussions.
00:11:57He doesn't see me.
00:11:58He only sees himself.
00:12:00For Paul, tonight's dinner party marks the first time he will see Carina after a catastrophic end to the final task.
00:12:15As Carina and Paul prepare for the final dinner party in separate rooms, speculation about Paul's participation in the final task continues to circulate through the apartments.
00:12:28I'm pretty disappointed with Paul's behaviour.
00:12:29I thought they were in a great relationship.
00:12:31I feel like he'd probably feel pretty ashamed considering that him and Carina are now in another bad situation.
00:12:41I thought this was the last thing he would do, is go on a date.
00:12:45I do not know why Paul did that.
00:12:47Big mistake, bro.
00:12:50I have no idea if they're actually going to be walking in as a couple tonight or separately.
00:12:58I really do hope that Carina walks in with her head held high.
00:13:05Like, what's going on? What's next? I don't know what's going to happen tonight.
00:13:12It's ultimately up to Carina if she forgives.
00:13:18Is she capable of forgiving Paul?
00:13:20Because Paul, I think, is going to be on his hands and knees at this point.
00:13:24Here we are, the very final dinner party of the entire experiment.
00:13:43They're at the pointy end now.
00:13:44They've got to decide, am I going to take this relationship into the real world?
00:13:48So there's a lot at stake tonight.
00:13:51And this week we've given them a final task.
00:13:55Yes, that's right. I mean, we gave them this and it's unprecedented.
00:13:58It's never been done before.
00:14:00It's a polarising task where they were given the choice to meet another potential match.
00:14:05And we did this to find out just how committed they are to one another.
00:14:08We wanted to see how they actually respond to that, particularly now when they've got to make this final decision.
00:14:18I think what's going to be really telling is finding out who chose to partake in this final task and how that decision has impacted their relationship and perhaps even the commitment they had to the relationship in the first place.
00:14:32And it's also a test of resilience for the couple, isn't it, in terms of, okay, if my partner went out and met this other person, is this something we can repair from, that we can bounce back from and actually start a new chapter in the relationship?
00:14:47Yeah.
00:14:51Rhi and Jeff, looking loved up, comfortable, happy together, absolutely connected.
00:14:59It's just effortless.
00:15:00It's a lot of love.
00:15:01There's a lot of love.
00:15:02I have so much hope.
00:15:04I cannot wait to see how they show up at the final vows and take this relationship into the real world.
00:15:13Cheers.
00:15:14Cheers, yeah.
00:15:15The fact that it's the final dinner party, standing here with my husband, we walked in as friends.
00:15:20Obviously, it took us a little while to get here, but we're here.
00:15:23And it's been a journey.
00:15:24It sure has.
00:15:25All our hard work that we've put in, I'm just so proud of us that we're here right now, a strong couple.
00:15:31Cheers to the last dinner party.
00:15:32Yeah, cheers.
00:15:33Cheers to our relationship.
00:15:34Yes.
00:15:35Couldn't be more thankful and happy for the hard work we put in and the amazing person and wife I have here today.
00:15:40Oh, thanks.
00:15:42No, I, yeah, I'm very thankful and very happy.
00:15:44I can't wait to find out who went on the date.
00:15:47I can't wait either.
00:15:48I'd love to know everyone's like reasoning behind if they did go on it.
00:15:53Like, yeah.
00:15:54And like we both said to each other, we were curious of what they look like.
00:15:56Yeah.
00:15:57But there was nothing, that was it.
00:15:58That was where it stopped for me.
00:15:59But now I'm just like, thank God I'm in the relationship with you because I know it's real, you know it's real.
00:16:05Yeah.
00:16:06Just from that last task.
00:16:07It was sort of like the last, I guess, tick of the box for us, I think.
00:16:10There's a difference between curiosity and being curious and actioning that curiosity.
00:16:14Yeah, for sure.
00:16:15100%.
00:16:16Yeah.
00:16:17It's going to be crazy.
00:16:18Yeah.
00:16:19What's happened.
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:21Hi guys.
00:16:22Jamie and Dave.
00:16:24Big smiles.
00:16:25Hi.
00:16:26Hi.
00:16:27I'm so excited.
00:16:28It is actually nice to see them walking hand in hand and smiling.
00:16:33Eee.
00:16:35Don't do it.
00:16:36Go on.
00:16:37David, don't do it.
00:16:39If there wasn't a camera crew in here, I'd give you a right scuff.
00:16:46Cheers guys.
00:16:47Cheers.
00:16:48Cheers guys.
00:16:49Cheers.
00:16:50Cheers.
00:16:51Who would have thought?
00:16:52We were just talking about the task.
00:16:53I know you guys.
00:16:54What do you think, what do you think we did?
00:16:56Well, you guys are like the epitome of like, you know, that good piece of toast with butter,
00:17:00like always going to go down well.
00:17:02Oh, thank you.
00:17:03You don't know what we've done yet.
00:17:04Yeah.
00:17:05I know, there's no way.
00:17:07Did you?
00:17:08No.
00:17:09No, we didn't do it.
00:17:10For me, it was just simply because I'm the nosiest bloody bitch.
00:17:15Yeah.
00:17:16I couldn't help myself.
00:17:18I honestly was just like, who is he?
00:17:20And that's why I was when Dave said, I didn't see this other woman.
00:17:23I'm like, why not?
00:17:24And curiosity does kill the bloody cat because like, I still have no idea who this person
00:17:30is.
00:17:31You just stood up.
00:17:32Never even met this man.
00:17:33So it was actually, it was the worst case scenario because I'm like, so now I've done
00:17:37all this.
00:17:38You are kidding.
00:17:39The fact, it's actually funny that Jamie took up the offer to go on the date and then
00:17:44got stood up.
00:17:46I think it's quite hilarious.
00:17:48I'm just a nosy bitch.
00:17:49I was like, who is this other person?
00:17:51Yeah.
00:17:52I started speculating.
00:17:53Speaking of speculating.
00:17:54Who else do you reckon went on the date?
00:17:55We're done.
00:17:56It's nothing bad.
00:17:57Why the **** am I the bad guy now?
00:18:02We've been great.
00:18:04Like we had one more dinner party.
00:18:20You know, I'm pretty good at taking accountability sometimes.
00:18:22And this is one of those times where it's absolutely not my fault.
00:18:25I'm looking so miserable.
00:18:28Adrian, you just don't give a ****.
00:18:30You don't listen.
00:18:31You don't care.
00:18:32You're going to ruin your own time.
00:18:33Yeah.
00:18:34You know what?
00:18:35Maybe you should have asked for a better match.
00:18:37Hey.
00:18:38Hey.
00:18:39Hey.
00:18:40Two packs of calls here.
00:18:41Yeah, mate.
00:18:42Adrian and Afina.
00:18:43Oh.
00:18:44Pretty low energy.
00:18:46Yep.
00:18:47Entrance for the two of them, isn't it?
00:18:49What's going on, mate?
00:18:50Big day?
00:18:51Oh my God, I love this.
00:18:52Yeah.
00:18:53Yes, they're holding hands, but definitely a lower level of energy and excitement than we're
00:18:57used to.
00:18:58Hello.
00:18:59Hello, hot style.
00:19:00Thanks.
00:19:01Back at you, baby.
00:19:02Oh, about to.
00:19:03I'm not talking to this.
00:19:04I hope so.
00:19:05My wife's why I eat bees.
00:19:06Look, Adrian, we definitely weren't talking to you.
00:19:08We were talking to each other.
00:19:09I do want to hear what's going on with Adrian and Afina.
00:19:12I feel like there's just a lot of pots again simmering, so let's just air it all out tonight.
00:19:17Did you guys go on your catch up?
00:19:19We did, yeah.
00:19:20Both of us.
00:19:21Hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:19:22You both went on the dice.
00:19:23Yeah.
00:19:24Afina and Adrian both met their other potential match.
00:19:27Their energy ship is so big.
00:19:29What does that say?
00:19:30They are.
00:19:31If you do have some level of doubt in your relationship, curiosity's still going to be there.
00:19:35I think you and I must have been curious.
00:19:37I had a few questions that I felt like I wanted answers to.
00:19:40That's how I went into it.
00:19:41I didn't go out of curiosity who the other person was.
00:19:43That was my perspective going into that.
00:19:45I looked at it as a task, a different perspective.
00:19:47Do you actually think you looked at it like a task?
00:19:49Adrian's making light of it.
00:19:52Are they acting like they're in a real marriage?
00:19:54Are they considering this relationship with the gravitas and the importance that you would in a real marriage?
00:20:00Hang on, hang on.
00:20:01So you didn't go because of curiosity?
00:20:03I wanted to see why.
00:20:04Isn't that curiosity?
00:20:05Seeing why?
00:20:06Yeah, that's curiosity.
00:20:07We both were curious and we both said yes to the task.
00:20:11Some of the language he uses is because he's trying to not answer the question.
00:20:15He's avoiding answering the question.
00:20:17Afina, do you regret going on it?
00:20:19I felt like we failed that task.
00:20:20Like at the end of it, I reflect in hindsight, I feel like we both failed.
00:20:25She didn't answer Jeff's question.
00:20:26I did.
00:20:27Did you regret it or not?
00:20:28I actually did.
00:20:29I did, Adrian.
00:20:30Do you listen to me?
00:20:31I mean you did a big answer.
00:20:32I actually said I regret it.
00:20:34We both did the challenge, babe.
00:20:36I do regret it.
00:20:37I regret it because I feel like you and I both failed.
00:20:39So I copped it for going and she did it.
00:20:41Figure that one out.
00:20:42Did you actually cop it though, Adrian?
00:20:44You were mad at me.
00:20:45You said you were mad.
00:20:46Let's tell everyone about what my mad looks like, okay?
00:20:48You made the decision.
00:20:49Own it, Adrian.
00:20:50Every time you're upset, you come at me like this.
00:20:52And that's exactly what she did.
00:20:53I'm actually not entertaining you right now.
00:20:55Alright, let's have a...
00:20:56I'm not entertaining you right now, Adrian.
00:20:57I don't care.
00:20:58There's multiple times throughout this moment where I don't feel seen or heard by Adrian.
00:21:03Or sometimes I'm voicing an opinion instead of actually validating your partner.
00:21:07I think he thinks about how it looks rather than how his partner is feeling.
00:21:11When I read that challenge, I was curious.
00:21:14And so was you.
00:21:15At times in my relationship, I have wondered why we were paired together.
00:21:19Yeah.
00:21:20And it took weeks for him to even ask me questions about my child.
00:21:23And then when I met this other person, like, you know, they were asking me questions, like,
00:21:27about my son, about my job.
00:21:29Adrian didn't know I had a job three weeks in.
00:21:31Ah, so that's interesting from Afina.
00:21:34I mean, it's hard to know, isn't it, whether Afina has had this realization since the final test,
00:21:39or whether she was aware of it throughout the experiment.
00:21:42Yeah.
00:21:43She may not have been ready to see what she already knew.
00:21:45Yeah.
00:21:46Yeah.
00:21:48Oh!
00:21:49Hey!
00:21:50The king and queen of confusion are back.
00:21:55Jackie and Ryan.
00:21:57Oh, my God!
00:21:58You guys never fail to entertain me!
00:22:01Hello!
00:22:03How are you, my bro?
00:22:04Good.
00:22:05Good, good.
00:22:06It was really nice walking in with Ryan.
00:22:07It was just, like, this acknowledgement of, like, wow, we made it.
00:22:10And we're so glad we had each other.
00:22:13And there's no one else we would have rather done this experiment with.
00:22:17You know, if Ryan and I actually committed final vows, we'll be at each other's graves,
00:22:21you know?
00:22:22Like, there's nothing that could possibly come between us.
00:22:27Did you guys go on the task?
00:22:30Yeah.
00:22:33Yeah, we just...
00:22:34And you're still here together?
00:22:35Yeah.
00:22:36That's right.
00:22:37How the hell does this work?
00:22:38Yeah, like, it's just one of those things where, after all the shit we've been through,
00:22:41like, you know, one little meeting, one little encounter,
00:22:46yeah, but still got a ring on the finger.
00:22:48Wow, so...
00:22:49Final test.
00:22:50This final test, this final task has brought Jackie and Ryan closer.
00:22:55Hi!
00:22:56Hey!
00:22:57Hey!
00:22:58Hey!
00:22:59Oh, Beth and TJ.
00:23:01Hey.
00:23:02Hello, hello.
00:23:03You look stunning.
00:23:05Wow, that's two very separate people entering the room.
00:23:10I would not be surprised for Beth and TJ to have chosen to meet their other matches.
00:23:16They have not been in a good place.
00:23:18Beth.
00:23:19Oh, wow, we're all here.
00:23:20What the hell is going on with you guys?
00:23:22The beginning of the week, obviously, was rough because, obviously, I wrote to stay.
00:23:25He wrote to leave.
00:23:26The delusional me was like, if I stay in the week, maybe I'll change his mind.
00:23:30Um, and I don't even know how it turned so sour, but it just completely flipped.
00:23:35I don't, I love Beth, but like, why are you walking in with this man?
00:23:42Why are you walking in with this man?
00:23:44It makes me sad to think of our wedding or honeymoon to where we are now.
00:23:49You've made some amazing memories, but it makes me sad.
00:23:54Babe, you are being used as a human shield.
00:23:58If this man is not being a good partner, if you have an issue, if you've been crying,
00:24:02if he has completely failed you, walk in by yourself and make a statement.
00:24:09Paul's in a bag of strife.
00:24:10Oh, mate, well, I said to Ree, if this was like his first stuff up, then maybe.
00:24:16But like, he said this is his third.
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:19I'm like, mate, what's happened?
00:24:23Oh, no.
00:24:24Oh, in baseball, if you have three strikes, what's that mean?
00:24:27Yeah, mate, he's, um, you're out of here.
00:24:29You're out.
00:24:37It's, it's weird, wicked on my own.
00:24:40I've always walked in, you know, with Corinna, feeling strong, feeling united.
00:24:45You know, we've had a lot of ups and downs, but we've always walked in strong.
00:24:51So, yeah.
00:24:52I really grew to be so close with Paul, and it's lonely in the apartment, it's lonely
00:25:01doing this without him, and I'm sure he's feeling the same.
00:25:05Or I would hope he is feeling the same.
00:25:07Yeah, it just doesn't feel right.
00:25:10It's like something's missing, someone's missing, obviously, so...
00:25:12I think this feeling right now that I'm feeling is just, yeah, sadness, that, like, uncomfortableness
00:25:27and anxiety where I don't want to be going into situations like these by myself.
00:25:39I'm sad that I'm walking in without him, especially our final dinner party.
00:25:45When everyone sees Paul and I walking in alone tonight, they are going to be absolutely shocked.
00:25:51But he's the one that put us in this position, not me.
00:26:01Oh!
00:26:02Oh, she's on her own.
00:26:03It's crazy.
00:26:10Still to come.
00:26:11I guess we should start with the elephant in the room.
00:26:14Paul faces the firing line.
00:26:16Just can't even fathom why you'd want to even do that or entertain it.
00:26:19I just don't fucking understand it.
00:26:20Guys, I know, I totally get it.
00:26:21She is incredible.
00:26:22I get it, I know.
00:26:23How can you not think of her?
00:26:24I know.
00:26:25If Geoff did something like this to me, I can't see any coming back from that personally.
00:26:30A mistake repeated more than once is a decision.
00:26:33And he has decided to make these choices again and again.
00:26:51Oh, hello!
00:26:53Oh!
00:26:54Oh, she's on her own.
00:26:56It's crazy.
00:26:57Let's go, let's go pop your cup off.
00:27:00I need a, yeah, these are gorgeous ladies.
00:27:04Are you okay?
00:27:05Um, I'm okay.
00:27:07Yeah, I'm just trying to collect my dignity and hopefully it's not outside the window at
00:27:14the moment.
00:27:15No, this is not, this is.
00:27:16Yeah.
00:27:17No, I'm okay.
00:27:18This is not on you.
00:27:19Yeah.
00:27:20Have you spoken to Paul at all?
00:27:22He messaged me over the weekend, three times.
00:27:25No call.
00:27:26Oh, no.
00:27:27Sounds like maybe Paul went on a date.
00:27:31I'm just trying to suppress the feelings and the emotions and like my way of showing
00:27:37how upset I am is just by putting on a face.
00:27:41And yeah, joking and laughing.
00:27:43Yeah.
00:27:44Yeah.
00:27:47I laugh and smile, but really I'm, I'm actually cut and I'm disappointed and I'm, I'm devastated.
00:27:54Babe.
00:27:55Yeah.
00:27:56I'm angry.
00:27:57I'm not even a call.
00:27:58As it's like stewing and I'm processing.
00:28:01I'm just like, I'm, it makes me feel sick to my stomach.
00:28:06Like everything that we have built together.
00:28:09It's out the window for me.
00:28:11What did he say when he walked into the house?
00:28:13He ran up to me.
00:28:15I was doing the dishes and he ran up to me and gave me the biggest hug and kiss and was
00:28:20like, I missed you so much.
00:28:22He's like, I just couldn't wait to see you.
00:28:25And I was like, I was like, Paul.
00:28:27And I just like pulled away from him and he goes, but, but like, I've missed you so much.
00:28:32We're talking about you the whole time.
00:28:33She just kept asking me questions and all I could do was talk about you.
00:28:36And I was like, not cool.
00:28:38And I just flip.
00:28:41Okay.
00:28:42I really did not see that coming.
00:28:43We had a couple here talking about how their values were aligned, how they were talking
00:28:48about having children in the future.
00:28:50They were committed.
00:28:51And now less than a few days later, he's off on a date with someone else.
00:28:57It's quite shocking.
00:28:59Yeah.
00:29:00Yeah.
00:29:01Have I not done enough?
00:29:03Like, have I not made or done any?
00:29:06I definitely don't think that's the case at all.
00:29:09I'm just thinking about if he's got temptation in this experiment, what's going to happen
00:29:13on the outside world?
00:29:14Yeah.
00:29:15And that's what worries me the most.
00:29:17Like, are you kidding me?
00:29:19I feel like if this was the first time this has ever, he'd ever messed up.
00:29:22Yeah.
00:29:23He probably would have maybe like, been a little bit more softer about it.
00:29:26Yeah.
00:29:27They're not little, little mistakes.
00:29:28No.
00:29:29Like they're major.
00:29:30This big one has like, hit alarms for me.
00:29:34It's made me question, like, what is a soulmate?
00:29:39What, what is a partnership?
00:29:41Like, what is a long lasting relationship?
00:29:46What does that even look like?
00:29:48It's made me question so many things because I thought I had that with Paul.
00:29:52Did he give you a reason?
00:29:53Mm-hmm.
00:29:54What was the reason?
00:29:55He, um, was curious and he thought it would be funny.
00:29:59He used the word funny.
00:30:01I'm sorry, Paul, what are you playing at?
00:30:06You have Karina as your wife and you want to entertain someone else because you're curious
00:30:14and you think it'd be funny.
00:30:16What a f***ing joke.
00:30:17Do you know what's funny now, bruv?
00:30:18You've lost your f***ing wife.
00:30:19That's what's funny.
00:30:20Joke's on you.
00:30:21Joke's on you.
00:30:22Yeah.
00:30:23I'm sorry, but when he's got you.
00:30:24Yeah.
00:30:25Why would you need to be curious?
00:30:26That's exactly what I said to Joke.
00:30:27Why would you need to be curious?
00:30:28What more do you want, honestly?
00:30:30Babe, I'm sorry.
00:30:31Yeah.
00:30:32And I'm sorry to use the word curious and thought it'd be funny like a joke.
00:30:37Do you think you guys will have a chat tonight or what's your, have you got a game plan?
00:30:41I don't know.
00:30:43I feel like after everything that Karina has experienced over the past couple of days, like I know, you
00:30:49know, she hasn't really heard from Paul much apart from a few text messages.
00:30:52I felt like today was a great chance for Karina to really tell Paul exactly how she feels.
00:30:58And I'm really going to have Karina's back tonight and make sure that she feels heard
00:31:02and seen.
00:31:03It's, um, it's a bad spot to be in, man.
00:31:07Oh, I know.
00:31:08It's shocking.
00:31:09When they walked in on the last new party, Paul was sitting next to me and I said to him,
00:31:15you look like you went wild, bro.
00:31:16Yeah.
00:31:17You look so happy.
00:31:18Yeah.
00:31:19And then this.
00:31:20In his head, he's thinking like, that's not that big a deal.
00:31:24And then obviously now he realises it is a big deal.
00:31:34It's just been an emotional last couple of days.
00:31:39I'm just feeling anxious.
00:31:40I'm, you know, I'm upset at myself.
00:31:45The whole bunch of emotions going through my head at the moment.
00:31:48Yeah.
00:31:49I just hope that she can hear me out tonight again.
00:31:54I just hope that she's going to be able to hear.
00:31:57Yeah.
00:31:58We've passed that.
00:31:59Got a coffee and a little patisserie this morning and dropped it off to her at her door and just
00:32:10didn't really, didn't really, didn't really hear from her.
00:32:15It's a tough spot that I'm in at the moment because there's so many times I can apologise for something.
00:32:27There's only so much I can say.
00:32:30Right now I am going to keep apologising as much as I need to.
00:32:41But she also needs to be receptive.
00:32:44I'm hoping that she is going to be willing to, to move past that because if she were to decide to throw this relationship after three months,
00:32:54when we've actually had an amazing time majority of the time, yeah, I'll be a little bit upset.
00:32:59Knowing that now, you know your final decision to come and find a vows.
00:33:17This is not a group that is receiving him with any enthusiasm whatsoever.
00:33:26You dressed for a funeral?
00:33:27Oh, yeah, yeah, sort of.
00:33:28Yeah, I think you're dressed for your own.
00:33:30Yeah.
00:33:31Yes, I have.
00:33:32What's that?
00:33:33No?
00:33:34I'm definitely, like, separate.
00:33:36My intention was actually to pull her one on one before the dinner party, to just have a chat with her, to reassure her, to tell her how much I want this relationship to continue and to work on the outside.
00:33:53I really hope so with all my heart.
00:33:54Oh.
00:33:55Good night.
00:33:56Can I talk to you for a second?
00:33:57Good night.
00:33:58Good night.
00:33:59Can I talk to you for a second?
00:34:04Mm-hmm.
00:34:05Mm-hmm.
00:34:06Dinner is served.
00:34:07Yay!
00:34:08Last one!
00:34:09How excited!

00:34:40Hey!
00:34:41Hey!
00:34:42Hey!
00:34:43Hey!
00:34:44Hey!
00:34:45Hey!
00:34:46Can I have one of them, Jeff?
00:34:47This is the last time, before going to final vows, that they'll get to have this kind
00:34:51of interaction.
00:34:52You can sense the excitement in the room.
00:34:54Yeah.
00:34:55Yeah.
00:34:56Thanks.
00:34:57Oh, damn!
00:34:58I'm loving this.
00:34:59And it is, no doubt, a very shared experience.
00:35:02It's unique.
00:35:03Yeah.
00:35:04Holy moly!
00:35:05Last dinner party, you guys!
00:35:06I know!
00:35:07What the hell?
00:35:08Are we gonna do a cheese tour last dinner party?
00:35:09Yeah, yeah.
00:35:10Has everyone got a drink?
00:35:11There really is a very deep bond, I think, between a lot of people within the experience.
00:35:14I wanna say, it's been, like, such a wild ride.
00:35:18Honestly, I'm so glad to have shared this experience with you guys.
00:35:21I feel like we've all learnt a lot.
00:35:23We've laughed, we've cried.
00:35:24But it's been amazing!
00:35:25Cheers!
00:35:26Cheers!
00:35:27Cheers!
00:35:28Cheers!
00:35:29Cheers!
00:35:30Cheers!
00:35:31Cheers, guys!
00:35:32Cheers, guys!
00:35:33And I think, also, what we see tonight, there's a finality to it all.
00:35:37Cheers!
00:35:38Cheers!

00:35:51I just wanna, like, run away from the table and I don't wanna sit next to him.
00:36:00I wanna pick my plate up and move next to Reen Jeff.
00:36:04That's honestly what I wanna do.
00:36:17Paul knows he's up.
00:36:19You can see it on his face.
00:36:20Last week, Paul was saying that, you know, they're looking at moving in together.
00:36:24After the commitment ceremony that him and Karina just had after homestays, for him to go on the date, it's insane.
00:36:31It's gonna be interesting to see what the future holds for them.
00:36:34Does she see herself getting past this?
00:36:36Is this the end for them?
00:36:37Can she forgive him?
00:36:38Can she see his perspective?
00:36:40Well, I guess we should start with the elephant in the room.
00:36:43Um, walking in separately is a pretty big statement on the last dinner party.
00:36:48And we wanna know what's going on.
00:36:57Do you want to go...?
00:36:59You can go first.
00:37:08Well, look, obviously, you've all, you know, we've all had the same task.
00:37:12Um...
00:37:14I...
00:37:18I'm trying to find the right way to stop that.
00:37:29I just...
00:37:30I really want to make it clear, guys.
00:37:33When I...
00:37:34When I took the decision to go,
00:37:36there was no...
00:37:37It...
00:37:38I didn't have any second thoughts.
00:37:39I didn't have, like, it's...
00:37:40I was genuinely really happy with my relationship.
00:37:42I swear to God.
00:37:43And it was just purely...
00:37:44I was just being stupidly curious.
00:37:50When I got to the location, when I was waiting for this person to ruck up,
00:37:54I genuinely started to realise, like, that I was doing something wrong.
00:37:57When you got there, that's when you thought I was doing something wrong?
00:38:00Yeah.
00:38:01Yeah, when I got there, I just started realising, like, what the f*** am I even doing here?
00:38:09Like, this is just so wrong.
00:38:11I wasn't thinking.
00:38:13I just didn't think.
00:38:14Which is, again, like, the reason why, like, as I'm, you know, getting there to the location,
00:38:19when I was there, I was like, like, what the f***?
00:38:22Like, why are you even here?
00:38:27You've got the most amazing woman by her side.
00:38:28I just can't even fathom why you'd want to even do that or entertain it.
00:38:31I just don't f***ing understand it.
00:38:33She is incredible.
00:38:34I get it. I know.
00:38:35It's...
00:38:36It makes no f***ing sense.
00:38:39No.
00:38:40Red flag.
00:38:41Red flag.
00:38:42I don't know about Karina, and I feel like if I was Karina, and my partner went on a date,
00:38:47I'd be f***ing livid.
00:38:48I'd have thrown his s*** out the door.
00:38:50Yeah.
00:38:52I think why it's confusing a lot for us too is because on the commitment ceremony couch,
00:38:55you know, you mentioned you want Karina to meet your parents,
00:38:58and you guys are thinking about moving in together and these kinds of things.
00:39:01I know.
00:39:02Mate, like, I think, like, other people could have bet my life that it wouldn't have happened.
00:39:05That's why it's confusing.
00:39:06I was just isolating that.
00:39:07I was, I know, I was isolating that room, and I just, I don't, honestly, like,
00:39:11it's like I had a bloody donkey brain for a second.
00:39:13It's like I wasn't thinking straight.
00:39:14It is not an excuse.
00:39:16That's how I was thinking.
00:39:17I'm not, I'm not trying to justify myself.
00:39:18I'm just saying that this is how I was feeling at the moment when I,
00:39:21that's what I was thinking when I took this decision.
00:39:24Now, after the last task with the feedback week, and you've seen how hurt she was,
00:39:27how can you not think of her?
00:39:29I know.
00:39:30And this is the whole reason why I'm so upset at myself,
00:39:32because, again, and like I said, I wasn't considering her feelings when I took that decision,
00:39:36and I'm just, yeah.
00:39:37How can you not think of Karina?
00:39:41She's always maintained those boundaries very strictly in the relationship.
00:39:45How could you not?
00:39:47The sleeping arrangements with everybody and how, like, uncomfortable she felt even.
00:39:52I get it.
00:39:53And then, like, on feedback week where you did go behind her back again and said stuff,
00:39:56she said in confidence, like, why don't you think that you're thinking of these things at these moments?
00:40:01Guys, I know, I totally, I totally get it.
00:40:06It just, yeah, just, it was just, like, just negative things after negative things, bang, bang, bang.
00:40:12And I was just, like, I was just sitting there thinking, OK, holy , like, it just, I kind of felt like we were just only focusing on the, on the bad, on the wrong tonight.
00:40:22Um, and, on all the things that I did wrong, and, yeah, it kind of just feels like that.
00:40:28All the good things that I've done was just, or has been almost forgotten.
00:40:32It's like...
00:40:34How was the day, Paul? How was the day?
00:40:40It was honestly...
00:40:41No, I'm serious. I actually want to know.
00:40:42Genuinely.
00:40:43No, but I'll tell you guys, it was the most uncomfortable, most awkward interaction ever.
00:40:47I was being polite. I was just asking the bare minimum, the most basic question.
00:40:54The entire day, I was actually was talking about Karina the whole time to the point where this, this poor woman was like, why are you here?
00:40:59And I said to her, in all honesty, I don't know, I should not be here.
00:41:02And, honestly, it was so awkward, I just wanted to run away.
00:41:07Even when you got home, and Karina explained to Ria and myself, when you got home, your reaction was, like, bizarre to me.
00:41:12Like, you came in, you're kissing her and saying, oh, I went on a date, but it was, like...
00:41:15No, no, no, sorry, I'll explain that.
00:41:18When I got back to the apartment, I was genuinely so happy to see her face.
00:41:21And I, I, I literally gave her the biggest hug and the biggest kiss.
00:41:24And I was feeling so awkward because, obviously, I was about to say I went on that date.
00:41:28I was telling her, obviously, everything I've just told you guys, I told Karina.
00:41:31Like, how awkward it was and everything and blah, blah, blah, right?
00:41:34And I was really doing my best to try to give her as much for assurance, telling her, like, how much I was...
00:41:38I still value our relationship, how much I liked her, how much I still want this to continue.
00:41:42And I understand she was so upset that she couldn't hear anything else.
00:41:45It was, yeah, it was...
00:41:46Did you need clarity?
00:41:47Did you need a different perspective?
00:41:48Like...
00:41:49Well, no, I didn't, I didn't need, like, honestly, genuinely, I know it's so hard to believe
00:41:58because I was in such a good place.
00:42:00We were in such a good place.
00:42:01I was so happy with my relationship with myself, with Karina, with everything.
00:42:04Clearly not.
00:42:05But were you truly happy with your relationship?
00:42:06Clearly not.
00:42:07But, like, if you're truly happy with your relationship, you wouldn't have gone on a date.
00:42:16The group is holding him to account.
00:42:19And it's almost like no matter what he says tonight, it's not going to land.
00:42:24I mean, looking at Karina now, she looks sad.
00:42:28Yeah, she does.
00:42:29I want to know what Karina actually thinks.
00:42:32Guys, guys, guys, can Karina speak?
00:42:37How do you feel, babe?
00:42:49Yeah, look, there's...
00:43:03I didn't see this one coming whatsoever.
00:43:08I feel like now there's a massive question mark in our relationship.
00:43:14Um, yeah, I can't really look at you the same way.
00:43:23I don't think you were considering my feelings in any way.
00:43:30The biggest thing, not only have you disrespected me,
00:43:33but you've disrespected yourself and my family.
00:43:37And family's everything to me.
00:43:40And I can't believe that you didn't even consider that.
00:43:42Like, you were just so shut off from considering your partner, your wife,
00:43:46and then everything else that you just went through the week before.
00:43:51You just, you jumped at the idea.
00:43:53And that's what worries me.
00:43:54If it's so easy to do that in this experiment,
00:43:57what's going to happen on the outside world when you do get attention?
00:44:03Are you going to go the extra mile if you're interested in the girl
00:44:05because she's attractive and she's your...
00:44:07I understand that this is what you think that this could potentially happen on the outside.
00:44:12The reassurance that I can give you right now is...
00:44:16So, first of all, obviously, this...
00:44:18I took that as a task and I didn't think, once again,
00:44:21I would have never gone out of my way to sneak out, go see someone else.
00:44:26I just want you to know that I don't have that in me.
00:44:30I'm not...
00:44:31I'm not the kind of guy who has this capability of sneaking out behind your back
00:44:36to go meet with other people and end it wrong by you behind your back.
00:44:40But you did go meet with someone else.
00:44:42No, no, I know.
00:44:43No, I know.
00:44:44But, like, it's like...
00:44:45Like, I didn't organise...
00:44:46What I'm just trying to say is, like, I didn't organise...
00:44:49You didn't organise it.
00:44:50So, just say you're a bar, right?
00:44:51And you say you don't go out of your way.
00:44:52But what if there's an opportunity and a girl comes up to you?
00:44:55That's not going out of your way.
00:44:56I know, but that's presented to you.
00:44:57Absolutely.
00:44:58So, yeah.
00:45:01He didn't have to go.
00:45:02There was the choice to go.
00:45:03There was the choice to not go.
00:45:05The fact that you went.
00:45:08That is not something that's going to be in any way security for her in the relationship.
00:45:17I simply wasn't considering Corinna's feelings.
00:45:21But you even got upset with the experts, Paul, about saying that you lack emotional intelligence.
00:45:26That is exactly another example of you lacking emotional intelligence.
00:45:29Yeah, I get that.
00:45:30I've 100% lacked emotional intelligence when I threw that decision.
00:45:31Like, you weren't considering how I would feel like the repercussions of your actions.
00:45:34And then just justify myself.
00:45:35But I'm just saying, like, obviously I'm not just going to brush off this situation.
00:45:39No, of course.
00:45:40And I don't expect you to.
00:45:41This is a real big deal for me.
00:45:42I get it.
00:45:43And you're giving me the bare minimum.
00:45:44I just thought that maybe Corinna was going to be a little bit more, just to be more receptive.
00:45:52She is still quite upset.
00:45:54She is still in that, in that funny weird head space, you know.
00:45:59She's still, she's still, yeah, she's still re-questioning the relationship.
00:46:03She's still questioning my sincerity.
00:46:05And so, yeah, I just need to, I just need, I need to do everything to reconnect with her
00:46:12and to regain her trust.
00:46:14Paul, can I just say, the reason is pisses me off so much.
00:46:17She has stood by you through everything in this experiment.
00:46:19As soon as you have the opportunity to jump ship, you did it.
00:46:21And it's really boring.
00:46:23I can't believe you've done that to me.
00:46:24You've hurt her so much.
00:46:26I know.
00:46:28And we thought that as a couple they had worked so hard to repair from some of their early troubles
00:46:33and there was forgiveness in the mix.
00:46:35Yep.
00:46:36This is a woman who has stood by his side.
00:46:38She may have got to her tipping point.
00:46:42Maybe he got overly confident because she has been so steady.
00:46:46Yeah, I just, again, like I just, I just regret, I just regret so much taking that decision.
00:46:50I, I've just shot myself in the foot.
00:46:52I've ruined my entire relationship.
00:46:54I've just, I've just, it's.
00:46:56What's really disappointing and I feel like if Geoff did something like this to me,
00:47:01I can't see any coming back from that personally.
00:47:04For me, it would take me so long to get over something like this, if, if at all.
00:47:10And I think just because of the other couple of hiccups that you've had,
00:47:14like it's just put you, both of you in such an awful position.
00:47:19Like I said, I wasn't considering how you were going to feel.
00:47:24And this is the, this is what I'm, this is what I'm regretting right now.
00:47:27And I, and I'm so sorry for, again, putting you in that situation.
00:47:32Karina's a very forgiving person.
00:47:34But if Karina doesn't move on from it, I absolutely understand why.
00:47:38It'd be a very hard thing to move on from when there's been other issues along the way that I've portrayed a trust.
00:47:43And I'm sorry for making you question yourself and re-question the whole relationship and my sincerity and everything else.
00:47:50I genuinely don't know why I did it.
00:47:54There's no ifs or buts about it.
00:47:57He's betrayed Karina's trust time and time again.
00:48:00And there's going to be a lot of making up to do if they'd ever come back from that.
00:48:05If she accepts that.
00:48:09There'd have to be a lot of ground to make up in order for them to come back from it right now for sure.
00:48:13I'm actually pissed off at myself even because I'm like, that's not me.
00:48:18That's not who you are.
00:48:19Like normally you think things through, you know, so, yeah, again, like I'm, I'm, yeah, so.
00:48:26After what has happened with Paul and Karina over the past three months, I couldn't forgive Paul.
00:48:32And I hope she doesn't forgive Paul because I feel like a mistake repeated more than once is a decision.
00:48:38And he has decided to make these choices again and again.
00:48:42To me, that's unforgivable.
00:48:44Again, like when I took the decision, I was just being so silly.
00:48:47I didn't think, and again, I wasn't considering how you were going to feel.
00:48:51And then I'm so sorry for that.
00:48:52And I genuinely regret that so much that I'm hating that I'm putting you in this position.
00:48:57Like seriously, I just hope that you're willing to move past that.
00:49:08I just hope that you're willing to move past that.
00:49:11And I genuinely regret that so much that I'm hating that I'm putting you in this position.
00:49:29Like seriously, I just hope that you're willing to move past that.
00:49:36Sorry.
00:49:40In all my previous relationships, in my entire life, I've never cheated on anyone.
00:49:47I'm seriously hating myself for what I've done.
00:49:50I'm hating myself.
00:49:52I've never sneaked out behind any of my partner's back to do anything dodgy.
00:49:56I've apologized to Karina multiple times.
00:49:58I want to apologize to you again in front of everyone here.
00:50:01I was being completely oblivious.
00:50:03I didn't think.
00:50:04I wasn't.
00:50:05Did you read that part to Afina?
00:50:08Yeah, I read it like that.
00:50:10Yeah.
00:50:11I'm sorry.
00:50:12Sorry for putting you in that situation, for making you question yourself.
00:50:17I'm actually embarrassed.
00:50:19I'm sorry.
00:50:20I'm sorry.
00:50:21I want to apologize if I've hurt you or if you felt attacked.
00:50:25It's because I care.
00:50:27But do you hear what I'm saying?
00:50:29Like when I say, like, it just made me feel...
00:50:31Oh, I feel sick.
00:50:32Oh, I know.
00:50:33I'm sorry, babe.
00:50:34Come here.
00:50:35It's not enough.
00:50:48It's not good enough.
00:50:50Continuously apologizing and saying sorry is not enough.
00:50:55You're not even giving me any form of validation.
00:50:58Like, you could have picked up the phone and you chose not to.
00:51:01You didn't call me, you called the boys and you obviously got reassurance from the boys,
00:51:05but you didn't call me.
00:51:06Let me finish.
00:51:07No.
00:51:08No, you didn't call me.
00:51:10We're in the same apartment complex.
00:51:12It would make me realize, okay, maybe he actually cares when he wants to fight for me
00:51:16and he's showing me that he's sorry in other ways.
00:51:20Like, surely you've noticed by the other **** ups that you did that all I wanted was your affection.
00:51:26You might feel like I want space, but no, I really want you to try really, really hard
00:51:32to win me over and make me, make me feel like you only want me.
00:51:35I just assumed you wanted to see me at all because I wasn't getting no reply from me.
00:51:39I just thought ****, she just doesn't want to see me at all.
00:51:41I was, I just, all I wanted to do was even like just one, one takes back just an acknowledgement
00:51:47saying like, look, I just need my space, I need my time.
00:51:49Like, I'm just not ready to talk to you yet.
00:51:51That's, that's, that's all, it would have been, it would have been good.
00:51:54No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:51:57I know I mean wrong, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:52:01Let me just finish.
00:52:02Because I was being fully ghosted.
00:52:06I know you. Don't tell me the stories you matched eight months ago. What happened?
00:52:21We went on a hike. I never spoke to him since. He ghosted me. Yeah.
00:52:28Do you remember when we went on that first hike and then we were meant to go out for
00:52:35dinner that Saturday night? Remember that? I started getting ready and I came to meet you
00:52:40and you said, I'm so sorry, it's just going to be a boys night, but I really, really, really
00:52:43want to see you. And then I was like, what the ****? I was like, because it's bringing
00:52:48back memories. You're not consistent. Yeah. Didn't really appreciate him saying that I
00:52:55ghosted him because it's making me think like, wow, well, that's rich coming from you.
00:53:00This is bringing back, like, it's making me feel like you generally are not interested
00:53:05in this. Say again, like, have you not heard my turn of rules? Like, are you serious?
00:53:10The biggest thing that offends me so much and I feel so betrayed is that you literally
00:53:15were in my family home the week before, Paul. My dad gave you the yes. Like, that does not
00:53:21happen. You came into my home. We treated you like a son. The world was given to you
00:53:28everything that you wanted. Then the next week you're going on a date with another woman.
00:53:32I'm sorry. How am I going to wrap my head around these things? And that is the
00:53:35ultimate disrespect. Like, just imagine if your sister's partner or boyfriend did this
00:53:40to her, how would you as a brother feel? Would you be protective and overbearing?
00:53:45Would you, what would you do? So imagine your sister in my position.
00:53:50This is why we put this final task right before final vows. To test our couple's commitment
00:54:01to one another. And that's so important before they make that final decision.
00:54:05Real life is so much more nuanced and complicated. But it's not until this happens that we really
00:54:13get the full picture.
00:54:18I never meant to hurt Karina. I never meant to...
00:54:20But you have. You've made me feel so insecure. You've made me feel like I'm not worthy.
00:54:24And I'm so sorry for that. You've made me feel like I'm not good enough for you.
00:54:27Do you feel that that trust can be rebuilt?
00:54:30I don't know. I don't know how to feel.
00:54:33I think the effort needs to be put in, man.
00:54:36Yeah, like...
00:54:37The effort needs to be put in because you'll never know otherwise.
00:54:39You can't just give up.
00:54:40The only thing I want to say is like, you know, like, we've had an amazing experiment.
00:54:44We've had an amazing time. We've had like little ups and downs throughout the experiment.
00:54:47But overall it's been, we've had, I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but we've had an amazing
00:54:51time, a beautiful time. And I did a massive up and I do realise that.
00:54:55Which is why I'm going to fight for it.
00:54:57But I feel like all of that has like fully just gone out the window for me.
00:55:01All of that has gone out the window because I'm trying to figure out if you're genuine or not.
00:55:06All I hear are words and Paul trying to justify his reasoning.
00:55:13Continuously apologising and saying sorry.
00:55:16And I've heard it so many times that it's like, it's like you're a broken record.
00:55:21Try harder. No, I'm a catch. Anyone would die to be with me. I'm a catch.
00:55:27And that's that. Sorry, I'm a catch.
00:55:30You're great. You're great. That's what you're here for.
00:55:33You're great. Don't, don't worry yourself.
00:55:35Well, no, apparently I'm just, I've been done shit.
00:55:37You just have to try harder, that's all.
00:55:39What the way is.
00:55:40Here's what's the best way.
00:55:50Come on.
00:55:51What the way is.
00:55:52– A lot of the question that I was asking too Karina obviously, like yes, some of her answers were extremely hard to hear, hard to swallow but.
00:56:02Yeah, okay, and I guess once again I just have to put myself in that situation, so...
00:56:17I guess I just got what I deserve, I don't know.
00:56:32Sorry guys, give me two seconds.
00:57:02So damn smart. That's literally one of my favourite things, is I can engage with you on so many levels and sometimes get lost along the way, so yeah.
00:57:27Someone's getting laid tonight.
00:57:29Imagine being at a dinner party where you're like Jackie and Ryan are one of the strongest relationships we have.
00:57:39Well, that's a tough day in the office right there.
00:57:44We haven't spoken about you guys. You guys both went on the date?
00:57:47Yeah.
00:57:48What was your reasoning behind it?
00:57:49Because I wanted to make sure that at Final Vows we're making the best of everything possible.
00:57:53I've really put our relationship to the test and made me question what a marriage really is and like how much Ryan and I have gone through in the three months that we've had.
00:58:03And like all the ups and downs and the fact that we've been so resilient and that we're still committed to one another.
00:58:10Do you think it brought you stronger together?
00:58:12Because that is a remarkable turnaround in our eyes.
00:58:14Like I took this task very seriously with my whole heart in it and I can say Ryan is one of like the strongest men I've ever met.
00:58:24He's one of the most physically attracted men I've ever met.
00:58:26I'm now attracted to him.
00:58:30So like in terms of would I consider you as a potential life partner?
00:58:35Absolutely yes.
00:58:41In life, the grass may look greener, but the question is whether you want to go into the grass and whether you want to actually move to that grass.
00:58:49And like that's what marriage is about. It's being like, you know, I'm going to admire the green grass over there, but like that's not my grass.
00:58:57My grass is here and I'm going to, what do they say?
00:59:00The grass isn't greener on the other side. The grass is greener where you water it.
00:59:06And that's what Ryan and I have been doing over the past three months.
00:59:09We're still watering our grass and it's still growing. We're happy.
00:59:12I know we both went on the date. The fact that she did show up in a lot of different ways afterwards that like, that reassured me.
00:59:22I think you've, I think you've really grown into understanding my perspective.
00:59:27It's a shitty feeling watching a couple like Jackie and Ryan, who had some very real issues, regardless of the last week, get stronger.
00:59:35And then when push came to shove, Adrian and I really crumbled and I'm, yeah, I'm disappointed and I don't feel great.
00:59:48And I've actually said from day one, these guys are going to be the one that actually last out of this relationship, out of this place.
00:59:55And I keep saying that, everyone calls me, this is still going to last.
00:59:59I'm going to stay on my word here. I've been pretty good at predicting certain things.
01:00:04I'm going to say once the experiment ends, they're going to stay together for some time.
01:00:09Yeah. Yeah.
01:00:11It makes no sense to me or anyone else, but it makes sense to them.
01:00:14And that's why post experiment, they're going to stay together and shock everyone.
01:00:18And I said it here first.
01:00:21Was your, was your date more compatible, Adrian?
01:00:24No.
01:00:25No.
01:00:28No, so me and her, we did have things in common.
01:00:31Like what?
01:00:33Oh, she started a business, I have my own business.
01:00:36She's into the gym. Same as Athena, but we had to say, you know, the only difference was she's into Sydney.
01:00:42Perth is the first state away from my family's base.
01:00:45So, yeah.
01:00:47When we were on the date, I sort of came to the realisation that, um, the long distance is the hardest challenge.
01:00:53And I was careful, Athena, but, um, yeah, I'm not willing to do long distance for a long period of time.
01:01:00So, I feel pressured that I have to make the move to Perth and...
01:01:04Yeah, no, it is a massive decision.
01:01:07We both said we were willing to do long distance.
01:01:11Are you?
01:01:13Prior to this commitment ceremony, last week I was like, yeah, for a short period of time, yes.
01:01:17But then we did this dating, and I asked myself, why did I go? Why?
01:01:22So now you're questioning if you actually have strong feelings for Athena or not?
01:01:25No.
01:01:27I do care for her. There's no if, buts, or maybes. I've spent 12 weeks, one of the best experiences I've had in my life.
01:01:32I think when we're good, it's good. I think it's great. And I think we have fun.
01:01:35And we don't actually worry about anything else besides the present moment, spending time with each other.
01:01:44But, again, do I care enough to pack up bags tomorrow and leave? No.
01:01:48I feel like everything's turned quite a bit. So do I.
01:01:55I'm so confused by Adrian.
01:02:00In one stance, you go, no, I could see a long distance relationship with Ephemath.
01:02:05In another instance, you say, I'm not sure.
01:02:08When I voice my concerns, I do feel like sometimes he tries to brush everything under the rug.
01:02:13Yes, I like Adrian. I've got a physical attraction to Adrian.
01:02:19My feelings definitely have grown, but do I have doubt that we're going to survive a long distance relationship?
01:02:25Yes.
01:02:30Like I said, then we did this date thing this week.
01:02:33And like I said, me and Athena were like, we did up.
01:02:36It's funny though, this language you were using right now, you didn't use when you came back to that room that day.
01:02:41I was the one questioning why you and I did it. You didn't even seem to care.
01:02:46But I feel like there was a lot of questions on my end and a lot of conviction in regards to this task and this long distance relationship.
01:02:54But I feel like you skirted around everything.
01:02:57But you come in tonight and you're like to everyone, it was a date.
01:03:01And yeah, I regret it.
01:03:03And long distance seems almost unachievable right now.
01:03:06I feel pressured that you want an answer from me that I cannot give you right now.
01:03:12I'm feeling pressured that if I don't move, this doesn't work.
01:03:15I just feel like your language today is so different to your language when you walk up into the apartment.
01:03:19You know exactly where I stand.
01:03:20I don't really see myself moving right now.
01:03:24I've said from the start, do I see myself moving, you know, for the right person, eventually, maybe one day, if that, I don't know.
01:03:30For the right person, that's the issue, Adrian.
01:03:33Let's not hide behind this challenge, Adrian.
01:03:36What challenge?
01:03:38Let's not hide behind long distance.
01:03:40I am not the right person.
01:03:43Say it.
01:03:49Say it.
01:03:59I've said from the start, do I see myself moving, you know, for the right person, eventually, maybe one day, if that, I don't know.
01:04:05For the right person, that's the issue, Adrian.
01:04:06Let's not hide behind this challenge, Adrian.
01:04:10What challenge?
01:04:11Let's not hide behind long distance.
01:04:15I am not the right person.
01:04:17Say it.
01:04:20Yeah, right now, it's uncertainty.
01:04:25Would you move to Sydney?
01:04:28Absolutely not.
01:04:31There you go.
01:04:32You're both answering that off, like, a motion right now.
01:04:39Do you see any point going to final vows?
01:04:44Um...
01:04:46No.
01:04:47Absolutely. Right as instant, no.
01:04:48A big no.
01:04:49I feel like the reasons I'm here aren't good enough to have given up what I have.
01:05:05Babe.
01:05:14I stay for him.
01:05:16It's not been worth it the entire time.
01:05:19I don't want to be here wasting my time anymore.
01:05:20Here you go.
01:05:21What the hell does that mean?
01:05:22Why?
01:05:23What the hell does that mean?
01:05:24Why?
01:05:25What the hell does that mean?
01:05:26Why?
01:05:27Final vows.
01:05:29Fifi, are you okay?
01:05:32Fifi, are you okay?
01:05:33What the hell does that mean?
01:05:35What the hell does that mean?
01:05:37Final vows.
01:05:43Faithy, are you okay?
01:05:58I feel like I have, throughout this whole experiment,
01:06:01just put him on his pedestal.
01:06:04And I'm over it.
01:06:08I just would have loved just a little bit of reassurance
01:06:10from my partner.
01:06:13For him to step up to the plate.
01:06:17Just one time.
01:06:22I know. I know.
01:06:25Next time, over two big nights,
01:06:28it's the final vows ceremonies.
01:06:31I'm taking this decision very seriously.
01:06:34Which of our couples will continue their marriage
01:06:37beyond the experiment?
01:06:39It's one of the biggest decisions I've had to make in my life.
01:06:42I have something else I want to tell you as well.
01:06:45Jackie's shock confession.
01:06:47I don't really like keeping secrets from you.
01:06:49Leaves Ryan reeling.
01:06:51It's made me angry.
01:06:53What are you going to do?
01:06:54Athena's ultimate decision.
01:06:57Would you be happy if you had a daughter
01:06:59to be with someone like Adrian?
01:07:00It's the conclusion no one saw coming.
01:07:03And?
01:07:08Karina, you are kind and compassionate.
01:07:10All I can do now is ask for your forgiveness.
01:07:13Can Karina forgive Paul one last time?
