00:00:00Previously, feedback from their peers...
00:00:03Steve-O needs to put on his captain's hat.
00:00:05...allowed some couples to deepen their connections.
00:00:08There's two ways to a woman's heart.
00:00:11Chocolate or cheese.
00:00:13Only the best for my wife.
00:00:15I'm excited by you taking the lead.
00:00:18It reminds you are appreciated.
00:00:22Want a nacho kiss?
00:00:23Thank you for sending tasks that really understand the dynamic of Stephen and I
00:00:28and what we needed.
00:00:30Probing questions reinforced some were on the same page.
00:00:34Yes, I do see as a father of my children.
00:00:36Once again, Danny avoided direct questions from Beck.
00:00:40Do you think you will fall in love with me and why?
00:00:43I want to be very careful I'll answer this question.
00:00:49Um...
00:00:49Chris and Sam were caught in a tense stalemate.
00:00:52Not getting defensive at all.
00:00:54Even like a little sorry it felt like that way for you, Sam.
00:00:56I'm sorry that it felt that way.
00:00:57Yeah, cool.
00:00:57Yeah, I'm sorry that it felt that way.
00:00:58Lead with that.
00:01:00And despite Scott's willingness to get fresh perspective...
00:01:04I'm definitely going to take it on board and I hope Gia does too.
00:01:07No thanks.
00:01:08Gia was less than impressed.
00:01:10Hi.
00:01:12We're just going through this.
00:01:13Oh, I want to get out.
00:01:14I love you.
00:01:15As her and Scott pulled off a disappearing act.
00:01:19Tonight.
00:01:20I feel like I have been caught up in the Gia room, Beck.
00:01:24What?
00:01:24It's been toxic from the start.
00:01:26I refuse to play the game anymore.
00:01:29Alissa's reached her limit and is standing her ground.
00:01:33I've had enough.
00:01:34And it's the first time she'll come face to face with Beck after those text messages.
00:01:41The vibe with Alissa was icy cold.
00:01:43It was vile and vicious.
00:01:45Very different vibe tonight, Alissa, doesn't she?
00:01:47Hang on, hang on a minute.
00:01:48Hang on, hang on.
00:01:49Oh, God.
00:01:50Stop using me!
00:01:52Why are you laughing?
00:01:54What bombshell has Sam dropped on Chris right before the dinner party?
00:01:58I'm fuming.
00:01:59I feel uncomfortable.
00:02:00I feel betrayed.
00:02:02I've never had someone do this to me.
00:02:05And then...
00:02:05That needs to stop.
00:02:07That needs to stop.
00:02:08Has Danny reached his breaking point?
00:02:10I want you to be wary about what you text people.
00:02:13Two months ago, Danny.
00:02:14Two months ago.
00:02:15I can't believe it was ten years ago.
00:02:27After a week of honest feedback about their relationships,
00:02:31tonight our couples are coming together
00:02:34to reflect and unpack at the sixth dinner party.
00:02:39And after feedback week,
00:02:41Stella and Phillip's relationship is going from strength to strength.
00:02:45Would you like a coffee?
00:02:47Just peppermint tea.
00:02:48Just peppermint tea.
00:02:49Please.
00:02:49A bit of honey.
00:02:50A bit of honey.
00:02:51Yeah, why not?
00:02:51Just spice it up a little bit.
00:02:54Feedback week was amazing, to be honest.
00:02:56Trying to understand each other,
00:02:57and that's definitely deepened our connection.
00:03:00I think feedback week was one of the best weeks.
00:03:03Yeah, it was good.
00:03:03It still really was.
00:03:04It was a good week.
00:03:05Yeah, everything's going great.
00:03:07Ready to rumble?
00:03:09I thoroughly enjoyed it, so hopefully everyone else got much out of it like we did.
00:03:16For Rachel and Stephen, feedback week brought plenty to smile about.
00:03:22I'm actually excited to share with the group, like, what a good week we've had.
00:03:26It was fun.
00:03:27It was flirty.
00:03:28We were really lucky.
00:03:30Yeah.
00:03:31I feel like we've really leant into feedback.
00:03:33Like, Stephen's definitely stepped up.
00:03:35It's time to let Steve-O put his captain hat on and lead for the day.
00:03:41Are you making me a microwave meal?
00:03:43Only the best for my wife.
00:03:47No one makes nachos like me, though, do they?
00:03:51No.
00:03:52And maybe they shouldn't.
00:03:59I like that task.
00:04:01I'd love to do it for more than one day, actually.
00:04:03You know, you'd be waking up, and I'll have my sailor's hat on,
00:04:05and you'd be like, oh, what's this guy up to?
00:04:09Oh, that was exactly what you're up to.
00:04:20After a bizarre disappearing act over the weekend...
00:04:26..Gia and Scott have returned to their apartment.
00:04:33I hated feedback week.
00:04:35I don't know, I just think everything got to me.
00:04:36..and I just wasn't feeling really good, and I wanted to leave.
00:04:40I can see the difference in you with, um,
00:04:43being away from the experiment, like...
00:04:45Yeah, I know.
00:04:46I don't think Gia's good at, um, you know,
00:04:48taking feedback from anyone.
00:04:50So I planned ourselves a nice little weekend getaway,
00:04:53and I feel like it was the best thing we've ever done.
00:04:55I think the weekend away did really well for Scott and I.
00:04:59I feel much better today after our weekend.
00:05:01Yeah.
00:05:02Everything's been reset.
00:05:03I feel like we had a factory reset.
00:05:05And I guess the topics of tonight will probably be...
00:05:08Feedback week.
00:05:10The only issues that Scott and I have in our relationship
00:05:12are that we're in this experiment with people that we don't like.
00:05:15And also, uh, I don't take advice from people doing worse than me either.
00:05:21So, that's the only drama.
00:05:23Whenever these setbacks happen for me and Scott,
00:05:25I think it makes us stronger.
00:05:27Going into this dinner party with a smile on a doll
00:05:30and a spring in our step.
00:05:32Yeah.
00:05:33Moving forward, I just want to focus on Scott and I
00:05:35and have fun with a few people that are here now.
00:05:38Are you ready to hit the road, hit this dinner party, or what?
00:05:41Let's do it.
00:05:44Gia and Scott weren't the only couple
00:05:46who had a difficult feedback week.
00:05:51I...
00:05:52I've been anxious all weekend.
00:05:54Um, you know, I've been holding in some stuff with Chris
00:05:57that I'm not really happy with how, uh, feedback week ended.
00:06:01At the last commitment ceremony,
00:06:03Chris's plan for Sam to move to Sydney took him by surprise.
00:06:08Are you starting to think about life outside the experiment?
00:06:12I think what it would probably look like is he'd go to Sydney.
00:06:14I would stay primarily at the farm
00:06:16and then maybe we can float back and forth for a bit
00:06:18from Sydney to the farm.
00:06:20But when Sam raised the issue with Chris...
00:06:23Oh, that's the first time I heard that plan
00:06:25and it was kind of like you've just, like, made a decision
00:06:27on how this is going.
00:06:28Well, no, actually, no.
00:06:30That's not true.
00:06:31I feel like you're getting really, like, defensive with me now.
00:06:34I'm not getting defensive at all.
00:06:35Well, even, like, a little sorry it felt like that way.
00:06:37I'm sorry that it felt that way.
00:06:38OK, cool.
00:06:41That comment was maybe misconstrued or whatever.
00:06:45I'm happy to, like, just, like, move forward from it.
00:06:47Even now, I feel like you're getting defensive.
00:06:49I'm not getting defensive.
00:06:50I'm having a conversation.
00:06:51Leaving things unresolved.
00:06:55I just feel like Chris isn't understanding me.
00:06:58Like, he basically told the experts a plan
00:07:01of how it's going to work after the experiment
00:07:03without consulting me at all.
00:07:04And that just made me feel like I didn't really have a voice
00:07:06and I wasn't being heard
00:07:07and I didn't have much empathy around
00:07:08how this was all going to end.
00:07:10The next day, he tried to turn the whole thing around on me
00:07:13and gaslight me.
00:07:15And the only reason I've held it in
00:07:17is because I just can't feel like I can get through to him by myself.
00:07:21Yeah, going into tonight,
00:07:23I'm feeling really anxious about bringing this up.
00:07:25And the anxiety comes from I don't think
00:07:26it's going to be received well from Chris.
00:07:29I can see Chris cutting me off tonight
00:07:31if I try to talk about it.
00:07:32So I just need that group dynamic to bring it up.
00:07:35But hopefully, with the support of the group,
00:07:37maybe we can get there.
00:07:41Over the weekend,
00:07:43Feedback Week has prompted a change
00:07:45in Bec and Danny's relationship status.
00:07:48What about the fact that I'm not only a wife,
00:07:51but I'm a girlfriend now?
00:07:54Like, it still doesn't make too much sense to me,
00:07:57but whatever we roll with it.
00:08:01Danny and I talked about, you know,
00:08:04are we going to call each other husband and wife after this?
00:08:06And he was like, well, yeah, you're my wife.
00:08:08And I was like,
00:08:09what about the security of actually being your girlfriend?
00:08:12And he was like, will you be my girlfriend?
00:08:14And I was like, do you want me to be?
00:08:16And he said, absolutely.
00:08:18So I'm a girlfriend and a wife.
00:08:21Double parked.
00:08:23I think it's the security of, like,
00:08:25when we leave,
00:08:26we'll still be husband and wife, right?
00:08:29Well, yeah, of course.
00:08:31Yeah.
00:08:31So, but...
00:08:32If I just kind of whip the ring off and be like,
00:08:34right,
00:08:36we're mates.
00:08:38But, um...
00:08:38It's just the security of it, I think.
00:08:40It's nice.
00:08:42Interesting, isn't it?
00:08:43Tonight, I'm walking to a dinner party,
00:08:44not only as a wife in the experiment,
00:08:46but as a girlfriend overall,
00:08:49it proves that, you know,
00:08:50he's got my back.
00:08:51We're ride or die.
00:08:52And this is really serious.
00:08:54It's never been done before.
00:08:56No.
00:08:56There's not a wife who's a girlfriend.
00:08:58Yeah.
00:08:59Well, except from you now.
00:09:01But, yeah.
00:09:02I like it.
00:09:05Well, when a woman's your wife,
00:09:09to go back to being a girlfriend
00:09:10almost seems like you're downgrading.
00:09:13You know, men, a lot of the time,
00:09:14we do things we don't want to do
00:09:16or...
00:09:17Not that I didn't want to do it,
00:09:18I'm not saying that,
00:09:18but we just do things
00:09:20to make these women feel good.
00:09:22So, that's what it was.
00:09:25How are we feeling
00:09:26about going to the dinner party, boo?
00:09:28Feel good.
00:09:28Feel relaxed.
00:09:29I actually feel pretty good as well.
00:09:31Going into this dinner party
00:09:33is probably the least stressed I've been,
00:09:35but then again,
00:09:35that could be a really bad omen.
00:09:37Obviously, like,
00:09:38I've been on apology tours.
00:09:41Like...
00:09:42You've apologised more than OJ Sims.
00:09:44I know I have.
00:09:45It's a...
00:09:46And I'm still apologising now
00:09:48for messages that were wrote
00:09:49two and a half months ago.
00:09:50It's a disaster.
00:09:51Suck it up, champ.
00:09:53If Alyssa, you know,
00:09:54brings it up tonight,
00:09:55then I'm just going to sit
00:09:56as quiet as a field mouse.
00:09:58I'm not going to defend someone
00:09:59who's in the wrong.
00:10:00Yeah, I don't condone bad behaviour,
00:10:03even if it's from my wife,
00:10:04I don't condone it.
00:10:05But this should be the last time,
00:10:07I'd assume.
00:10:08It can't keep coming up.
00:10:09It has to.
00:10:10Yeah, I hope we can get
00:10:12to the end of the sorries.
00:10:13Do you know what I mean?
00:10:14Let's get to the end of them sorries
00:10:16because I didn't come
00:10:17on this experiment
00:10:19to just hear sorry.
00:10:25While Beck and Danny
00:10:26are hoping to move on,
00:10:28little do they know,
00:10:30the texts have since been circulated
00:10:33to the entire group.
00:10:49Yeah, the text messages
00:10:50are pretty bleak.
00:10:54Very descriptive, polarising.
00:10:57It was so long ago.
00:10:58It was two months ago
00:10:59that I wrote this message
00:11:00when I was furious
00:11:01after I'd gotten off the phone
00:11:03to Gia and Scott,
00:11:04being told that Alyssa and David
00:11:07were saying that Daniel's not into you,
00:11:10you're in a fake relationship,
00:11:12you're this, that and the other,
00:11:12and I was like,
00:11:13f*** you, you know?
00:11:14Regardless if it was six,
00:11:16eight, ten weeks ago.
00:11:17A month ago, two months ago.
00:11:19You still sent it,
00:11:21you still said it,
00:11:22and what you said
00:11:23was really, really horrible.
00:11:27Gia did this on purpose.
00:11:29She's taken the worst of me,
00:11:32right?
00:11:33And left the worst of her out of it.
00:11:38Gia's sitting there scot-free,
00:11:39but actually...
00:11:44..she's venomous.
00:11:46I wrote that message, right?
00:11:48I was angry.
00:11:49I did it.
00:11:49At the end of the day,
00:11:51she's hurting Alyssa and David.
00:11:53Gia, you're hurting Alyssa and David.
00:11:58Oh, here we go again.
00:12:00Obviously, I'm feeling pretty hurt still
00:12:02from reading the messages
00:12:03that were sent to me.
00:12:06I don't even want to use the words
00:12:08and the language
00:12:08because it's completely foul.
00:12:11And, yeah, I feel like
00:12:13it really needs to be addressed.
00:12:17Bec, I read the receipts.
00:12:19You said those things
00:12:21about David and I.
00:12:23Why?
00:12:24Like, what sparked that fuel
00:12:26and how does something so hatred
00:12:28come out of your mouth?
00:12:29I'm going to call it out.
00:12:31100%, and you should...
00:12:32You don't deserve to be treated
00:12:33the way they've treated you.
00:12:35Since the beginning of the experiment,
00:12:38Alyssa and David have been the target
00:12:40of unwanted scrutiny.
00:12:42Because I will say,
00:12:43I think it's a fake showmance.
00:12:45100% agree.
00:12:46I'm sorry, got to agree.
00:12:48Alyssa came under fire
00:12:50at every opportunity.
00:12:53Excuse me, that's not nice.
00:12:55Alyssa, shut up.
00:12:57Shut up, Alyssa,
00:12:59you ratchet idiot.
00:13:01So, ultimately, girls...
00:13:03But ultimately, I wanted to be fake
00:13:05as usual.
00:13:07And nowhere was safe.
00:13:10We've literally been staying up
00:13:11for late hours just talking.
00:13:13Sounds like an infomercial.
00:13:15Selling hair products.
00:13:17Desperately 3am on your TV.
00:13:20Even when it got too much
00:13:22for Alyssa...
00:13:23I care about what people think.
00:13:25I care about people's feelings.
00:13:27You know?
00:13:28I don't want to have
00:13:29this conflict.
00:13:31The blows kept coming.
00:13:35There's a bit of chatter
00:13:36around Adelaide
00:13:39about Beck trying to actually
00:13:41dig shit up on Alyssa.
00:13:45Are you talking to people
00:13:46in Adelaide, like,
00:13:48about Alyssa?
00:13:49No.
00:13:51You're not digging up information?
00:13:53No.
00:13:53Not at all.
00:13:55With the texting drama
00:13:56being the latest
00:13:57in a long line of attacks.
00:13:59Why do you think
00:14:01people are coming after you?
00:14:03Ask them.
00:14:05I don't know.
00:14:07I don't know.
00:14:12I refuse to play the game anymore.
00:14:14You know?
00:14:15And be that
00:14:15horn in the middle.
00:14:17I don't care what's
00:14:18going to happen
00:14:19between Beck and Gia.
00:14:20You have to speak your truth
00:14:22and I know you will.
00:14:23Going into tonight,
00:14:25we've got each other's backs.
00:14:26Boys.
00:14:27I have never said
00:14:28a bad word
00:14:29about anyone.
00:14:31So,
00:14:32I'm not going to
00:14:33tolerate it anymore.
00:14:34Enough is enough.
00:14:35The behaviour
00:14:36needs to be addressed.
00:14:39Tonight,
00:14:40I am done.
00:14:42I just
00:14:43had enough.
00:14:44Had enough.
00:14:57Today is a good day.
00:14:58Walking to a dinner party.
00:15:00We're reset.
00:15:01We're refreshed.
00:15:03Vibes are high.
00:15:05And...
00:15:07Hold for sorry.
00:15:07Don't know about that.
00:15:10You told me.
00:15:20Dinner party number six.
00:15:21Now,
00:15:22they're coming off
00:15:22feedback week,
00:15:23which is always
00:15:23a pivotal part
00:15:24of the experiment.
00:15:25How does that make you feel
00:15:26knowing that someone loves you?
00:15:28It's good.
00:15:30It's some giggling.
00:15:33They all have
00:15:34pretty much
00:15:35a front row seat
00:15:36to each other's relationships.
00:15:38They're so intertwined by now.
00:15:39So,
00:15:39it'll be really interesting
00:15:40to see
00:15:41how they've
00:15:42taken on the feedback
00:15:43from the other people
00:15:44in the experiment.
00:15:48I think everyone's
00:15:49going to kind of discuss
00:15:50what letters they got,
00:15:51how their date went.
00:15:52Danny,
00:15:52it might be like,
00:15:53why didn't you turn up
00:15:54to the date?
00:15:54And I'll be like,
00:15:54because you're a wanker.
00:15:57Give me your hands.
00:16:02Oh,
00:16:02that was so smelly.
00:16:04It was so cute.
00:16:05Couples are starting
00:16:06to talk about
00:16:07beyond the experiment,
00:16:08which brings up
00:16:09even more.
00:16:10And I think
00:16:10it's a good time
00:16:11to be having
00:16:12those conversations
00:16:13before they go
00:16:13into home states
00:16:14so they can really
00:16:15prepare themselves
00:16:16to ask that question.
00:16:17Is this relationship
00:16:19going to survive
00:16:19outside the experiment?
00:16:20You look like
00:16:21an absolute queen today.
00:16:23And that's the highlight
00:16:24of my night already.
00:16:26And we haven't even
00:16:26started the dinner party.
00:16:29Hopefully,
00:16:30I can get a,
00:16:31you know,
00:16:32a couple bites
00:16:33of food down before
00:16:35someone raises
00:16:35their glass
00:16:36and ding,
00:16:37ding, ding, ding.
00:16:38I've got something
00:16:39to say.
00:16:43Let's go, babe.
00:16:44Oh, it's busy in here.
00:16:46Vic and Danny.
00:16:48How good does my wife look?
00:16:50Give everyone a 12.
00:16:52Not that there's
00:16:53no one in it, ever.
00:16:54Looking fancy
00:16:54and looking very together
00:16:55and very comfortable.
00:16:57Yes.
00:17:00Thanks, baby.
00:17:02I'll have a little one
00:17:03with you.
00:17:03Okay.
00:17:04That's cute.
00:17:04Not the tension
00:17:05that we saw
00:17:06from these two last week
00:17:07walking into that
00:17:08cocktail party.
00:17:09At least we're coming
00:17:10into this dinner party
00:17:12in such a good spot.
00:17:13Hmm.
00:17:14You didn't run away?
00:17:15I didn't run away.
00:17:15I always show up.
00:17:16You always show up, babe.
00:17:18Unlike Gia.
00:17:19I mean...
00:17:21Big news this week is
00:17:22you're now my wife
00:17:24and my girlfriend.
00:17:27Any wonder
00:17:28Bec's looking so happy
00:17:29and relaxed.
00:17:30She got a whole lot
00:17:32of validation.
00:17:34Danny asking me
00:17:35to be his girlfriend
00:17:35definitely gives me
00:17:36reassurance.
00:17:37It just feels like
00:17:39it's not just the experiment,
00:17:40but it's real life
00:17:41and it's really important.
00:17:44Is it important to you
00:17:45or not?
00:17:46I'm not going to lie.
00:17:46Not that important
00:17:47because, like,
00:17:48I take this experiment
00:17:49seriously anyway.
00:17:50Yeah.
00:17:50So, like,
00:17:51when we got married,
00:17:53getting married on national TV
00:17:54is about as serious
00:17:54as it gets.
00:17:55Do you know what you mean?
00:17:56So, I was just like...
00:17:57But, yeah.
00:17:58If it's important to you,
00:17:59it's important to me.
00:17:59That's right.
00:18:00It's one of them ones.
00:18:01That's right.
00:18:02I'm just not looking forward
00:18:03to having to, um...
00:18:06deal with the text messages.
00:18:08Well, one text message
00:18:09that I sent from two months ago
00:18:11to a group of women
00:18:12that I thought were my friends
00:18:13that I've obviously seen
00:18:14that aren't.
00:18:16Bec shouldn't have
00:18:16sent the messages.
00:18:17I've said that to her.
00:18:19It's hard for me
00:18:20to defend her.
00:18:21As a husband,
00:18:22it puts me in a bad situation
00:18:24because I feel like
00:18:25I'm letting her down
00:18:26when I don't defend her,
00:18:27but it's also
00:18:28I don't condone that behaviour
00:18:29so I don't want to defend her.
00:18:31I have all these text messages
00:18:33that Gia's written
00:18:33about these people,
00:18:34but I wouldn't stoop
00:18:35to that level
00:18:35of sending them out to people
00:18:37because as much as Gia annoys me,
00:18:40I don't want to hurt
00:18:40all these other people
00:18:41that she's talked about.
00:18:43Gia's come to war with me.
00:18:45Like, she just needs to stop.
00:18:48I'm sick of it.
00:18:50Hey!
00:18:52Hey!
00:18:53Oh, look at you!
00:18:55Oh, Stella and Phillip.
00:18:57Here we go.
00:18:58Another happy, confident entrant.
00:19:00Yes.
00:19:01Great to see.
00:19:03You guys had a good week?
00:19:04Yes, we did.
00:19:05Yeah, we had a good week.
00:19:06It was probably
00:19:06one of the best weeks,
00:19:07to be fair.
00:19:08They've seen.
00:19:10Oh!
00:19:11Hey!
00:19:12Hello.
00:19:14Rachel and Steve.
00:19:16Keeping out of trouble?
00:19:17Trying to.
00:19:18Nah, I'm keeping out of trouble.
00:19:20Oh, you're good.
00:19:20Nah, I'm screwing with you guys.
00:19:21Nah, it's been good.
00:19:22Hold the chat.
00:19:25I didn't just become a wife.
00:19:27I'm now a girlfriend.
00:19:28Oh!
00:19:31Okay.
00:19:32Okay.
00:19:34Cheers, God.
00:19:35Oh, and it's empty class.
00:19:36But, like, cheers.
00:19:37Okay.
00:19:37Cheers to that.
00:19:38Congratulations.
00:19:39That's cute AF.
00:19:41Excuse me.
00:19:41You didn't ask me to be a girlfriend.
00:19:43I did.
00:19:44You didn't ask me to be a girlfriend.
00:19:45Yes, yes, I did.
00:19:45And what did you tell me?
00:19:46What?
00:19:47Well, we're not going backwards.
00:19:48Okay, yeah.
00:19:49Okay.
00:19:49Hey, yeah?
00:19:50Yeah?
00:19:51Yeah?
00:19:51Yeah?
00:19:52Yeah?
00:19:53Yeah?
00:20:00We're proud of you showing up tonight.
00:20:02We're just there to show that you are a strong person and not because you need to tear other
00:20:07people down.
00:20:09I've never done that.
00:20:10We've always been kind.
00:20:11And I don't understand the why.
00:20:15I just want some clarity.
00:20:17Yeah.
00:20:17I think we all deserve that clarity.
00:20:19We just need some clarity and just to put it to bed for once and for all.
00:20:31Yay!
00:20:33There she is.
00:20:35Hi!
00:20:36Oh, Alyssa and David.
00:20:37All smiles.
00:20:39They're very cute.
00:20:40Always so affectionate.
00:20:42Love the blue liner on your eyes.
00:20:44They're so sexy.
00:20:50I saw Bec and I'm always kind.
00:20:53I'm going to say hello.
00:20:54I'm going to give her a hug.
00:20:57You look like JLo.
00:20:58Yeah.
00:20:59Oh, you look like JLo.
00:21:01But inside, I'm like, oh, this person has stabbed me so hard in the back.
00:21:09I've seen the messages.
00:21:12How vicious and how hurtful they were.
00:21:17I don't know what's going on here, but I'm not playing a game anymore.
00:21:23So, I feel like there is a lot to be said.
00:21:27How was your week?
00:21:31It was...
00:21:33It was an interesting week.
00:21:35I feel like feedback week was a big one.
00:21:36It was a big one.
00:21:37Yeah.
00:21:39She has a very different vibe tonight, Alyssa, doesn't she?
00:21:42She seems inside her head.
00:21:44Yes.
00:21:46I don't know.
00:21:47Unless she has an issue with Bec because of the texts that have gone on in the past.
00:21:51True.
00:21:53So, do you feel like...
00:21:55Because can I...
00:21:56I don't want to talk about it right now.
00:21:58Okay.
00:21:58We'll give her about it at the dinner table.
00:22:01The vibe with Alyssa is icy.
00:22:03It's icy cold.
00:22:05She's been quite cold in a sense that she didn't even want to speak to me.
00:22:09Can I tell you guys something?
00:22:11My husband didn't get to do the task where he met with someone.
00:22:15I met with David.
00:22:16He didn't get to do it.
00:22:17Gia refused to and he was quite upset about it.
00:22:21Bec had a lot to say about Gia.
00:22:24And I'm thinking, do I pull out the screenshots?
00:22:28She's probably going to say, Alyssa, that was like four, five weeks ago.
00:22:32It doesn't matter.
00:22:35Regardless of if it was four weeks ago or yesterday, it doesn't matter.
00:22:40Take some accountability for your f***ing bad behaviour.
00:22:45We're not friends, girl.
00:23:01We're not friends, girl.
00:23:43We're not friends, man.
00:23:47happy with how things ended last week and the only reason I haven't spoken about it is because I
00:23:52didn't feel like I was getting through to you just by myself and I feel like I need some people
00:23:56around to give us both an outside perspective on the situation. Is this in relation to the comment
00:24:02that I said to Mel? That's what I brought up but it's the whole defensiveness from that?
00:24:10I just don't feel like you're hearing me and I don't feel like you're genuine with your apology
00:24:15and I feel like you really understand what you've done wrong and I've tried to explain it a little bit
00:24:21I'm fuming
00:24:28I'm angry
00:24:31because my husband and my partner has just dropped a bombshell on me five minutes before entering a
00:24:37social gathering. Make it seem like I don't leave a space that's safe for you to come up and feedback
00:24:42for me and that's basically like the definition of gaslighting is turning the situation around
00:24:48not to me. I feel uncomfortable, I feel betrayed
00:24:54I'm anxious and nauseous because I f***ing hate standing up for myself like this
00:24:58I thought this was all over so this is all new to me
00:25:02I had no idea what was going on and I could feel the awkwardness yesterday when I got home
00:25:06and I'm afraid now we're walking to a dinner party and getting everyone involved
00:25:11I just got called a gaslighter and got told that my apologies weren't genuine
00:25:16I've never had someone do this to me
00:25:47I've never had someone do this to me
00:25:47I've never had someone do this to me
00:25:48Chris and Sam, very separate.
00:25:50Why are they not holding hands?
00:25:52I've never seen this from them.
00:25:55Hello, my man.
00:25:57Sam and Chris, we just look like two mates walking in,
00:26:00to be honest, or not even good mates.
00:26:02Hi, honey.
00:26:04That was frosty.
00:26:05It looked disconnected, disinterested.
00:26:09It was shocking, to be honest.
00:26:13This is new, something's happened.
00:26:16Oh, babe, yucky.
00:26:18What's going on, babe?
00:26:19Um, where do I start?
00:26:21I'm sure he wants to do it in this forum,
00:26:24so you'll hear all about it.
00:26:25I just got told five minutes before entering the dinner party
00:26:28by Sam that he will be bringing up in front of the whole group
00:26:32that my four apologies weren't genuine enough
00:26:35on the back end of calling me a gaslighter.
00:26:37So I've just walked into the dinner party,
00:26:38hoping to have some drinks with my friends
00:26:39and catch up with everyone,
00:26:41and he has just dropped a bomb on me in the car,
00:26:44like, five minutes before walking in the door.
00:26:46Like, amazing.
00:26:49How you been, mate?
00:26:51Been a rough week, man.
00:26:52You look flat as a pancake.
00:26:54What's up?
00:26:57Um...
00:26:58So, basically, sitting on the commitment ceremony,
00:27:00Mel asked, like, what's the plan after the experiment?
00:27:02And Chris, like, said, well, Sam's going to move to Sydney,
00:27:04and then you can do this, move there, move that.
00:27:06Like, this is how it's all going to work.
00:27:07We had never discussed a plan.
00:27:09Oh, really?
00:27:10At all?
00:27:11At all?
00:27:13By watching it, I just assumed you'd had them conversations.
00:27:15Yeah, so we hadn't.
00:27:16And at the end of the day, it's fine.
00:27:17Like, he might have been excited or whatever,
00:27:18but then in feedback week, I, like, just wanted to say...
00:27:21Mm-hmm.
00:27:22I just wanted to say to him, like, hey, man, like,
00:27:25when you made the plan of, like, how it's already made,
00:27:28and he just goes, that's not what I said.
00:27:30What I said was, like, dismissing, shutting it down.
00:27:32Do you get quite aggressive?
00:27:34That conversation went awfully.
00:27:35Then, basically, I was like...
00:27:38He's like, what do you want me to do?
00:27:39I was like, can you just say sorry?
00:27:40Like, the apology just comes with defensiveness.
00:27:43Like, he apologised in the same voice that he was defensive.
00:27:46Yeah.
00:27:46Like, it's like, it's not genuine.
00:27:47I don't feel it yet.
00:27:49And he's just so defensive with me today as well,
00:27:51and I'm like, all I'm trying to do is be heard.
00:27:53And, like, he's upset that I've spoken up.
00:27:55Yeah.
00:27:57That's not okay.
00:27:58Balcony.
00:27:58Yeah.
00:27:59Yeah.
00:28:01Hi.
00:28:02Hello.
00:28:03Lucky loss.
00:28:06Ah.
00:28:06And here's Gia and Scott.
00:28:08We didn't know if we wanted to come, you know?
00:28:10Nice for Gia to show up tonight.
00:28:12Do you know what I mean?
00:28:13She's got one of them robes, what Harry Potter has,
00:28:16where she goes invisible from time to time.
00:28:18How are you?
00:28:18How are you, mate?
00:28:19Good to see you.
00:28:21How are you going?
00:28:21Yeah.
00:28:22How are you going?
00:28:23Surprising to see Gia and Scott actually hugging Bec and Danny.
00:28:27Particularly Scott, who made it very clear that he didn't want
00:28:31to have anything to do with Bec.
00:28:32Oh, thank you.
00:28:33You look nice.
00:28:34How are you?
00:28:37Oh, look at your man.
00:28:37You guys look duffer.
00:28:39Gia.
00:28:39Hi.
00:28:40Good to see you.
00:28:41You too.
00:28:42Hello.
00:28:42Hello.
00:28:43My eyes are very, very, very much open with Gia.
00:28:47You've shared personal messages between you, myself and a few other ladies, right?
00:28:52To try and take me down.
00:28:55You are vicious.
00:28:58Stay away from me.
00:29:00Stay away.
00:29:01Hi, babe.
00:29:02Hi.
00:29:03Love you.
00:29:03We got separated.
00:29:04Yeah, hold it.
00:29:05It's on.
00:29:06It's on.
00:29:06Do you want to grab a drink?
00:29:07Yeah.
00:29:07Yeah.
00:29:08I was so happy to see Chris.
00:29:09I knew he'd been stressing.
00:29:11The way he ran, it was like, he needs to talk to his girl.
00:29:14We were in the car on the way over and we have not spoken all day.
00:29:17It's been awkward as .
00:29:18And then in the car, he called me a gas lighter.
00:29:23I never really liked Sam from the minute I saw him.
00:29:27Sam doesn't play his cards how his cards really are.
00:29:32He's waited until tonight to do this.
00:29:34This is a, like, this will happen last week.
00:29:37Yeah.
00:29:38Very calculated.
00:29:39Very super calculated and cruel.
00:29:40But I'm going to back myself.
00:29:42Yeah.
00:29:42I'm not apologising again.
00:29:43I've apologised four times.
00:29:45How much more can you do?
00:29:47Yeah.
00:29:48Yeah.
00:29:49Childish.
00:29:50You want to play games like a little boy?
00:29:53Sorry.
00:29:54No, you're not doing that to Chris.
00:29:55Obviously, he's going to have, like, Bec on his side, so.
00:29:58Well, yeah.
00:29:59Yeah.
00:30:01So, us versus that.
00:30:02That's right.
00:30:03Mmm.
00:30:06Dinner is served.
00:30:13All right.
00:30:14Bon appetit.
00:30:16Oh, the table's compressed.
00:30:18I think tonight we're going to see some of the consequences of that feedback week playing out.
00:30:25With a small amount of couples left in the experiment, the dinner parties become much more intimate.
00:30:29Yes.
00:30:30You're very much a part of all of the drama that unfolds.
00:30:36It's a lot easier to have one conversation in the group rather than a variety of them going on at
00:30:41the same time.
00:30:42It puts a lot of pressure on what they actually choose to talk about.
00:30:59Wow.
00:31:00The red one is you on that stage is so good.
00:31:15Oh, there's a tension in there, isn't there?
00:31:18There is tension.
00:31:24It was very awkward at the start of the dinner party.
00:31:30There were crickets.
00:31:31I could hear them.
00:31:31I was sitting cutting my steak and I could hear...
00:31:36I'm looking at Bec and I already know what she said about me and my husband behind my back.
00:31:43Obviously, Gia's hurt me too, but nothing can top the screenshots of the messages that Bec said about David and
00:31:50I.
00:31:54How have you been, Alyssa? Are you okay?
00:31:57I've had enough of this ya-ya, these individual conversations and sweeping shit under the rug.
00:32:02I feel like it all needs to be brought to light and I feel like the other couples need to
00:32:06know as well.
00:32:07So if everybody wants to listen in, so there were obviously some receipts from the last commitment ceremony.
00:32:18That Juliet received from Gia.
00:32:27And after that commitment ceremony, Juliet was like, Alyssa, I really need you to see these messages.
00:32:33And I guess reading those messages brought up a lot of hurt.
00:32:37Because, you know, this happened weeks ago.
00:32:41This happened like four or five weeks ago.
00:32:44Five weeks ago.
00:32:46Two months ago.
00:32:47Babe, I've got some dates on there.
00:32:48Two months ago.
00:32:50Yeah, anyway, whatever.
00:32:50But it doesn't matter, babe.
00:32:52Like, it doesn't matter because they were the most vicious, vulgar.
00:32:58Yeah.
00:32:58I would never say that to someone in real life, let alone in a message.
00:33:04Like, people at this table don't even know that I was called a rap.
00:33:10Ooh.
00:33:11My husband's a rap.
00:33:17My head is so far up my ass and how much of a I am.
00:33:24Oh.
00:33:29My husband's a rap.
00:33:30And we're c***** licking c*****.
00:33:33Oh, no.
00:33:45They were the most vicious, vulgar.
00:33:49I would never say that to someone in real life,
00:33:52let alone in a message.
00:33:55Like, people at this table don't even know
00:33:58that I was called a rap.
00:34:02My husband's a rap.
00:34:05My head is so far up my f***ing arse
00:34:08and how much of a f***ing I am.
00:34:12We're f***ing licking f***ing.
00:34:16Oh, no.
00:34:18Why, why, why would you do that?
00:34:21Why would you do that?
00:34:24Really vile language.
00:34:27That's really destructive.
00:34:29Incredibly disappointing.
00:34:32Gia played a part in them as well,
00:34:33but what came out of your mouth?
00:34:35I'm telling you, I was in tears.
00:34:37It was vile and vicious, babe.
00:34:39I've seen repetitive behaviour, not just with me,
00:34:42but with other people at this table
00:34:43where you've come at them, and I'm just like...
00:34:45Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:34:46Like, there's been hurts, babe.
00:34:47Hang on, hang on a minute.
00:34:47Hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:34:48Alyssa, I don't think you can say
00:34:50that the people at this dinner table...
00:34:52I know, but everybody's been affected
00:34:53by your behaviour, babe.
00:34:54Hang on, wait.
00:34:54I'm sorry, everyone at this table
00:34:56at some point has been affected...
00:34:57I'm affected by your behaviour.
00:35:01I get it.
00:35:01And I know that you're saying sorry,
00:35:03and I know that you've said sorry,
00:35:04but I'm saying right now...
00:35:06Listen to me for one second.
00:35:11I feel like Alyssa was really trying to hold her own,
00:35:13but Ben keeps talking over the top of her.
00:35:17We saw it at retreat with me.
00:35:19It's just really frustrating.
00:35:22I understand what you're saying.
00:35:23I'm just trying to have one...
00:35:25Like, just let me have a piece.
00:35:26I understand what you're saying, right?
00:35:28I agree that the messages that I wrote
00:35:31were unacceptable.
00:35:33They were disgusting.
00:35:34They were disgusting.
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:36The reality of the situation
00:35:37is that you've seen snippets, right?
00:35:40Snippets.
00:35:40Well, then what else is there?
00:35:41I'm not...
00:35:42But I'm not going to do that.
00:35:43There is no excuse for what I wrote.
00:35:46I am sorry to you for what I wrote about you.
00:35:49Would I ever say that to your face?
00:35:51Never.
00:35:51Did I...
00:35:52Do I think that?
00:35:53No.
00:35:54Definitely not.
00:35:56That controls conversation.
00:35:58That controls narrative.
00:35:59I could just feel this beside me being like,
00:36:01accept some accountability
00:36:02and stop deflecting to everyone else.
00:36:06Is it okay?
00:36:07No.
00:36:10But I'm not going to send you the messages
00:36:12that everyone else has said about you
00:36:14to hurt you
00:36:15to get to her
00:36:16because that makes me just as bad.
00:36:21She isn't able to take on any sort of accountability
00:36:25for her actions.
00:36:29This is what Bec does, yeah.
00:36:31She is wrong
00:36:33and tries to think of anyone else who's involved
00:36:36that she can then blame for her actions.
00:36:39We have a war, right?
00:36:41But Gia sent them to Juliet
00:36:43and Juliet's going to shit on everyone
00:36:44and what that's done is hurt you two
00:36:47when you guys don't deserve to be hurt.
00:36:50You don't have to trust me.
00:36:52You don't have to believe me.
00:36:54But I am apologetic to both of you sincerely.
00:37:00Bec wanted to do what she always does,
00:37:04which is sweep things under the carpet.
00:37:06But the important thing is
00:37:08Alyssa stood up for herself.
00:37:10In the real world,
00:37:10if you read messages like that,
00:37:12you'd never go back.
00:37:13You'd never trust that person.
00:37:14You'd cut them off.
00:37:15Obviously, because of this experiment,
00:37:17we're faced with the fact
00:37:18we have to still be cordial.
00:37:20But you understand how, like,
00:37:22in the real world,
00:37:23there's no coming back.
00:37:23You can't trust someone and be friends with.
00:37:27Those text messages were vile
00:37:30and I don't think anyone would ever
00:37:32accommodate for people in their lives
00:37:36that talk about them like that
00:37:37at any period of time.
00:37:41I know that you've said sorry,
00:37:45but this shit is...
00:37:48I just want to stay out of it.
00:37:50This could have exploded,
00:37:52escalated,
00:37:52and got very hostile.
00:37:54It's interesting that Alyssa,
00:37:56she's essentially
00:37:58stayed at a conversational tone
00:38:00and this has not escalated at all.
00:38:02Yeah.
00:38:03It's very mature of her.
00:38:06It's just noise.
00:38:08I've heard this before.
00:38:09Bec and I have tried
00:38:10to work on our relationship.
00:38:14And I'm sorry,
00:38:15but I think I've given her
00:38:16way too many chances.
00:38:20I'm here for my husband.
00:38:22And I'm so lucky that I have David.
00:38:26Ultimately, like,
00:38:27I'm just going to put her to bed.
00:38:30I'm pretty disgusted in the behaviour
00:38:33and I'm not here for mean girl shit.
00:38:40Coming up...
00:38:41I have to change my whole life
00:38:43to fit into your life.
00:38:45Do I get any say
00:38:47in how this is going to work at all?
00:38:49And Bec's behaviour
00:38:51takes its toll on Danny.
00:38:56I just want you to be wary
00:38:58about what you say.
00:39:00I'm very wary.
00:39:01I want you to be wary
00:39:02about what you text people.
00:39:15You too.
00:39:18Look at Stella and Philip.
00:39:20So much love.
00:39:24So just in sync.
00:39:27I'm here, mate.
00:39:28I'm here, mate.
00:39:29Damn.
00:39:32So relaxed.
00:39:33A lot of swag.
00:39:34Yes.
00:39:35And so together.
00:39:39Philip and Stella,
00:39:40we haven't heard about, like,
00:39:41your feedback week.
00:39:43Like, what's going on?
00:39:45We've just come up
00:39:47for a really good week
00:39:47and it was awesome.
00:39:48We had good probing questions
00:39:51and, yeah,
00:39:52we were just going back and forth.
00:39:53It was almost like
00:39:54the honeymoon box.
00:39:55They were really good
00:39:55probing questions.
00:39:57Yeah, it was a good...
00:39:58It's a great week.
00:39:59I'm excited.
00:40:02Clearly some couples
00:40:03have actually
00:40:05embraced
00:40:05the feedback
00:40:07and have got closer together
00:40:08but for others
00:40:10it's just
00:40:10absolutely
00:40:11unravelled them.
00:40:17Can I just say something?
00:40:20Chris and I
00:40:21are going through
00:40:21something that's
00:40:22actually internal.
00:40:24I can't get to a conclusion
00:40:26with just the two of us
00:40:27and that's why
00:40:27I kind of wanted to
00:40:28bring that up tonight
00:40:29so if we could get that
00:40:30sort of...
00:40:30Yeah, let's do it.
00:40:33If you don't mind
00:40:33I'm going to kick it off.
00:40:35Obviously my energy
00:40:36is not great tonight.
00:40:37This is not my usual vibe.
00:40:38You know that.
00:40:40I'm going to just give you
00:40:40a bit of background
00:40:41on what happened.
00:40:42Sam and I had an issue
00:40:43mid last week
00:40:44which I thought
00:40:45we had squashed.
00:40:46On the drive over here
00:40:49Sam mentioned to me
00:40:50that he wanted to bring
00:40:50this issue up
00:40:51in front of the whole group
00:40:53and then on the back
00:40:54end of that...
00:40:55Why?
00:40:55Why did I want to...
00:40:56Can I just please talk?
00:40:59On the back end of that
00:41:00insinuated that I was
00:41:01a gaslighter.
00:41:05A gaslighter is a very
00:41:07strong word to throw
00:41:08around so obviously
00:41:09my energy is off.
00:41:11I feel like I've been
00:41:12thrown under the bus.
00:41:14So I'm going to let Sam
00:41:15speak and I'll hear him
00:41:16and then you can get
00:41:18my version of the events.
00:41:25Basically when Mel
00:41:27asked us on the couch
00:41:28last week
00:41:29like what's the plan
00:41:30after this?
00:41:32She said what does life
00:41:33look outside the experiment?
00:41:34Okay can I talk?
00:41:35Sure.
00:41:40And Chris said
00:41:42well the best way
00:41:43it could work is like
00:41:43Sam can move to Sydney.
00:41:47But the thing is
00:41:49Chris and I had never
00:41:50ever discussed a plan
00:41:52of how it was going to
00:41:53work outside the experiment.
00:41:58So then to hear him say
00:42:00to Mel like this is how
00:42:00the plan was going to
00:42:01work I'm like do I get
00:42:02any say in how this is
00:42:04going to work at all?
00:42:07Feedback week I thought
00:42:08would be a really good
00:42:09time for me to bring this
00:42:10up.
00:42:11So we're sitting on the
00:42:12couch and I say Chris
00:42:13when you said this to
00:42:14Mel I just felt like I
00:42:15didn't have a voice and
00:42:16he cut me off and he goes
00:42:17I didn't say that.
00:42:18You could have spoken up.
00:42:19You had every opportunity
00:42:20to speak just as much as
00:42:21I did and then I said I
00:42:23wish there was just more
00:42:24empathy around the fact
00:42:25that I have to change my
00:42:27whole life to fit into
00:42:29your life.
00:42:31I was like could you say
00:42:31you're sorry and he goes
00:42:32I'm sorry I'm sorry I
00:42:33hate your feelings.
00:42:34I'm sorry like I'm sorry
00:42:35I hate your feelings.
00:42:39I haven't had a genuine
00:42:40apology and when I try and
00:42:42bring it up I'm just met
00:42:43with defensiveness and I
00:42:44feel like right now my
00:42:45feelings have been shut down
00:42:46about it.
00:42:48There's no recognition no
00:42:49acknowledgement of the
00:42:51other's experience.
00:42:53And unfortunately like this
00:42:55wasn't the first time I've
00:42:56witnessed you shutting me
00:42:57down but it's the first time
00:42:59that I've spoken up about it
00:43:02and that me speaking up about
00:43:04it has just caused you to like
00:43:05hate me and just be like off me
00:43:07and I just don't understand what
00:43:10I've done wrong.
00:43:11Hate.
00:43:13See they're in a terrible way
00:43:15aren't they?
00:43:17Okay let me let me talk.
00:43:19My turn.
00:43:21Hand on heart I apologise
00:43:22three times and I said I'm so
00:43:24I'm sorry I did not mean to
00:43:26make you feel that way.
00:43:27I then apologised two more
00:43:28times he thinks it wasn't
00:43:29genuine I'm telling you it
00:43:31was.
00:43:32Why I'm so off Sam is because
00:43:34he's chosen to do it in this
00:43:35forum in front of everybody.
00:43:37He's thrown this at me 10
00:43:39minutes prior to entering
00:43:40the dinner party on the back
00:43:41end of calling me a gaslighter
00:43:42sometimes yes I am fiery
00:43:44sometimes I do get defensive
00:43:45but there's got to be some
00:43:46point where I've got to back
00:43:47myself.
00:43:48For him to throw me under the
00:43:50bus.
00:43:50Do you think he's throwing
00:43:51you under the bus though?
00:43:53I feel like this could have
00:43:54been done in a different way.
00:43:55I would have preferred to do
00:43:56it privately.
00:43:57We tried that.
00:43:59We speak to the experts in
00:44:00front of the whole group every
00:44:01week to help our
00:44:02relationships.
00:44:03I think where Sam was
00:44:04trying to speak to you was in
00:44:06front of the whole group
00:44:07because he felt like he wasn't
00:44:09getting nowhere.
00:44:12So he I think he thought if he
00:44:14had the group involved he could
00:44:15get some opinions and it could
00:44:16help your relationship.
00:44:18Chris if you give a genuine
00:44:19apology.
00:44:20I get that Sam.
00:44:21I am genuinely sorry that I
00:44:23hurt your feelings.
00:44:25I did not want to put pressure on
00:44:26you.
00:44:26Why are you laughing?
00:44:45I am genuinely sorry that I hurt
00:44:52your feelings.
00:44:54Why are you laughing?
00:44:58Because I asked you to do this this
00:44:59morning.
00:44:59I'm doing it again.
00:45:01I'm doing it right now.
00:45:02This is what you wanted.
00:45:02You want it in front of the
00:45:03group and you won't even let me
00:45:04finish the apology.
00:45:07Watching Sam and Chris, they're
00:45:09both valid in what they're saying.
00:45:11They're both valid in their
00:45:12feelings.
00:45:13They're both hurting.
00:45:17So I was actually very surprised to
00:45:19hear how Chris was talking about
00:45:21things, how Sam was talking about
00:45:22things.
00:45:23To see them behaving in that
00:45:24manner, it's a shame.
00:45:27A week ago I was like Sam and
00:45:28Chris are super strong.
00:45:29But now I think the boys are in real
00:45:31trouble.
00:45:34I am genuinely sorry that I hurt your
00:45:36feelings and I put pressure on you.
00:45:38That was not my intention.
00:45:39I'm sorry that I was defensive.
00:45:41I just feel like there's got to be a
00:45:43point where I apologise three times
00:45:45and then again the next morning.
00:45:46That's the first time you apologise
00:45:47for being defensive.
00:45:51They're in real, real dire straits
00:45:53here, Lisa.
00:45:56But what it has done is it's opened
00:45:58up their issues in their
00:46:00relationship that we can actually
00:46:01target at the next commitment
00:46:04ceremony.
00:46:06It just shows how powerful
00:46:08emotional tone is when couples are
00:46:11trying to deal with conflict and
00:46:13repair.
00:46:15It's like a dagger to the heart.
00:46:18I feel like my heart's been
00:46:19stabbed.
00:46:20I've done so much to be in this
00:46:23experiment to find love and a
00:46:24husband and to have this argument
00:46:27over the authenticity of my
00:46:29sorry's, which were five, and then
00:46:32be laughed at in the face.
00:46:32It's a f***ing joke.
00:46:36Okay, how about a positive
00:46:39joke?
00:46:40That was feedback week for you
00:46:41guys.
00:46:42Look, feedback week was really good
00:46:44for Stephen and I.
00:46:45Positive.
00:46:46Personally, I feel that way.
00:46:47I hope Stephen feels the same way.
00:46:49But yeah, it's been good.
00:46:53Um, Alyssa, love to catch up.
00:46:56We had a lot, lots of fun and
00:46:57everything.
00:46:58Um, a bit of advice from Alyssa
00:47:00that I really took on board was to
00:47:02be a little bit more masculine and
00:47:03bring some leadership and, uh, into
00:47:06the relationship, which I'm
00:47:09definitely going to put my, um,
00:47:11captain's undies on and hat and,
00:47:13you know, lead.
00:47:17And what else did I tell you, babe?
00:47:25Oh, do I have to mention that?
00:47:26No.
00:47:27Well, do you know what?
00:47:28No, because I respect Rachel as my
00:47:29bestie and we're not going down
00:47:31that road.
00:47:32On, on, on that, on that topic, I'm
00:47:34probably going to say this right
00:47:35now in front of everyone, that I
00:47:38feel like me and Rachel's sex life
00:47:40has been in the spotlight for way too
00:47:42bloody long.
00:47:46Now, yeah, we've had our troubles in
00:47:48it and we're getting closer, um,
00:47:50intimacy, like, intimately, right?
00:47:52However, now it's gotten to the
00:47:55point when I get close to Rachel,
00:47:57if Rachel wanted to get, gets close
00:47:58to me, we've got this thought in the
00:48:00back of our mind now.
00:48:01It's starting to get to the point
00:48:02now, like, are we doing this, you
00:48:05know, because we want to and it's a
00:48:07passionate moment or are we doing
00:48:09this because we're getting told to
00:48:10and there's pressure on it?
00:48:12Because I feel like there's so much
00:48:13pressure on, can you two have sex
00:48:16already?
00:48:16You need to have sex already.
00:48:17So, uh, on that note, we've heard
00:48:19everyone loud and clear, um, when the
00:48:22moment comes, you'll all know.
00:48:24We'll set fireworks off from the
00:48:26balcony, all right?
00:48:27All right.
00:48:29Good on you, Steve-o.
00:48:30This is the first time that I've seen
00:48:32him taking, like, a stance about the
00:48:34relationship.
00:48:35Kind of taking the lead.
00:48:36You guys are taking steps forward,
00:48:38hey?
00:48:39Yeah.
00:48:40When it comes to our sex life,
00:48:43they can say what they bloody want.
00:48:46I'm not here for the drama.
00:48:49Not here for anything else besides
00:48:50Rachel, so.
00:48:53And on the last night of a feedback
00:48:55week, we had nachos and watched a
00:48:58fishing video on YouTube.
00:48:59Oh, my God, I love you!
00:49:06Can I, can, Gia, can I ask you?
00:49:09Obviously, we was meant to have a
00:49:10meeting or whatever you want to call
00:49:12it, but what was the reason, just out of
00:49:15interest, why did you not show up?
00:49:19Because we had a really tough week in
00:49:22our relationship, to be honest, and I
00:49:23was packing my bags, trying to leave
00:49:25She tried to leave, and it's the
00:49:26whole week, so it's a snowball, not
00:49:28just you, it's everything.
00:49:29It was really hard.
00:49:29Like, it was just really hard.
00:49:30She felt like everything's been
00:49:31coming at her, so she wanted to
00:49:31leave, and she tried to leave, and I
00:49:33didn't let her come up.
00:49:34He was like, no, you can't.
00:49:37Hmm.
00:49:39In my mindset, was to go into it and
00:49:41really talk positive.
00:49:43I actually don't have no negative
00:49:44feedback between yours and Scott's
00:49:46relationship.
00:49:46I think Scott's been really
00:49:48honourable, how he's, like, took your
00:49:49daughter on board and stuff like
00:49:50that.
00:49:51I think you guys have got a good
00:49:51relationship, you back each other.
00:49:54I've only got blokes in my life,
00:49:56really.
00:49:57Yeah.
00:49:57Like, my mum and everyone's back
00:49:59home, so, like, it would have been
00:50:00nice to get some advice from a woman
00:50:02in the experiment for, like, a third
00:50:04party.
00:50:05Danny is a liar.
00:50:07He's full of shit.
00:50:08It would have been probably a
00:50:09screaming match.
00:50:10We would have been arguing.
00:50:11Do I need to be doing that right
00:50:12now?
00:50:12No.
00:50:13It was just a bad week, and I
00:50:15think I couldn't personally take
00:50:16any more at that point, because I
00:50:17was like, like, I'm damned if I do,
00:50:19damned if I don't.
00:50:20If I go and me and Danny argue, I'm
00:50:21going to look terrible.
00:50:27Maybe just next time, like, try and
00:50:29look at him more positively, because
00:50:30I wouldn't have come at you with no
00:50:31disrespect.
00:50:32No, and honestly, it wasn't that it
00:50:33was like, oh, my God, it's Danny.
00:50:35F*** that.
00:50:35It was like, we had a really tough
00:50:38week in our relationship, to be
00:50:39honest.
00:50:41She didn't turn up to speak to Danny
00:50:42because she knows she lied about
00:50:43Danny.
00:50:44When you said that my husband wants
00:50:46to be with you.
00:50:47I think Gia cares about Gia and taking
00:50:51people out.
00:50:52You're the one sending screenshots to
00:50:53people and throwing people under the bus
00:50:56and being vicious and manipulative.
00:50:57So we had the commitment ceremony.
00:51:00Juliet was yelling.
00:51:01I don't know if you guys...
00:51:02Yeah, we heard.
00:51:03We heard.
00:51:04I'm so over her and her fake two-facedness.
00:51:12What was the reason for sending the
00:51:15messages to Juliet?
00:51:16Because you don't know Juliet, you
00:51:19don't trust Juliet, but you've sent
00:51:21messages to her about Alyssa and
00:51:24David, but was the point to take me
00:51:27down?
00:51:27Like, is that the point?
00:51:28Was that the point?
00:51:33Well, you tried to take me down, so I
00:51:35gave it back to you.
00:51:37Oh, God.
00:51:48What was the reason for sending the
00:51:51messages to Juliet?
00:51:52Because you don't know Juliet, you
00:51:55don't trust Juliet, but you've sent
00:51:57messages to her about Alyssa and
00:52:00David, but was the point to take me
00:52:03down?
00:52:03Like, is that the point?
00:52:04Was that the point?
00:52:09Well, you tried to take me down, so I
00:52:11gave it back to you.
00:52:13Oh, God.
00:52:16I'm still feeding that dynamic that we've
00:52:20been trying to call out for weeks now.
00:52:23How?
00:52:23How?
00:52:25How did I try and take you?
00:52:28Stop using me!
00:52:30Stop using me as a pawn!
00:52:32I don't know what the f*** is going on here, but I'm not playing a game anymore.
00:52:38Do you hear him beg?
00:52:39They can just hate each other forever.
00:52:41Ultimately, my main focus is David.
00:52:43I want to give my husband my everything, and I don't want to get caught up in the ah-yah
00:52:46anymore.
00:52:49Once again, Alyssa is the collateral damage in other people's fights.
00:52:56And it's so unfortunate, because it really is generating distress in other couples.
00:53:02I don't want to engage anymore.
00:53:03I'm actually done with this conversation.
00:53:05How did I try and take you down?
00:53:07I can't do any more drama, Bec.
00:53:08It's going to go around and around, and I'm not doing it.
00:53:10Thank you so much.
00:53:18I just needed to know whether or not the whole point was to take me down.
00:53:23That's all I wanted to know.
00:53:24Yes, it was, because you girls ultimately throw each other under the bus every f***ing
00:53:30time, and you used it.
00:53:31Do you know what?
00:53:32Do you know what's even worse?
00:53:33What's worse is your collateral damage for a war.
00:53:39Which is f***ing.
00:53:40That needs to stop.
00:53:41That needs to stop.
00:53:42Well, who?
00:53:43Well, who?
00:53:44Direct it that way.
00:53:46More drama.
00:53:49I don't know how to feel about it.
00:53:51My feelings are strong for Bec.
00:53:53I care about Bec a lot.
00:53:55But sometimes I feel that I'm more focused with drama than it is on our relationship.
00:54:01I just wanted to know if the whole point was to throw me under the bus and you guys are
00:54:05collateral.
00:54:05I just had to ask the question.
00:54:06That was it.
00:54:07That's all I needed to know.
00:54:14I feel like Bec and Jira are out for, like, top dog spot.
00:54:17And I'm sorry, there is no top dog here.
00:54:20Let's remember why we're here.
00:54:21To meet a match.
00:54:23To have the opportunity to find love.
00:54:25So, if you're more busy about, like, sending shitty messages about people, sending out screenshots
00:54:31and, like, oh, you said this and you said this, then why are you here?
00:54:50Hi, Barry.
00:54:51Jeff, are you here?
00:54:51Yeah.
00:54:52Are we okay?
00:54:53What's going on?
00:54:53Is this all...
00:54:54Yeah.
00:54:55Are you sure?
00:54:56I'm just...
00:54:57I'm sick of the drama.
00:54:58I came here to focus on a relationship and stuff.
00:55:02Every dinner party is drama.
00:55:04Yeah, obviously, a bit ashamed of Bec, to be honest.
00:55:07I'm not going to lie.
00:55:08I'm not going to candy-coat it.
00:55:10Um, frustrated, because I know that's not how Bec is as a person.
00:55:14How would you feel in the same situation if every week, every single week, you were coming
00:55:21to a dinner party and there was something else?
00:55:22I don't care how long of that was or what the circumstances is.
00:55:26I don't really care.
00:55:28How would you feel in the same situation?
00:55:30Please answer the question.
00:55:31Yeah, of course.
00:55:32It would be frustrating.
00:55:32Yeah.
00:55:33Okay, and that's all.
00:55:34I'm fine.
00:55:34We're in an experiment, babe.
00:55:35A hundred percent.
00:55:36With vicious, vicious vipers around.
00:55:38Do you think that this is what life is outside of this experiment?
00:55:42I didn't come here for drama.
00:55:44I came here for love.
00:55:46I wanted to talk about how can I become a better partner and a better husband.
00:55:50I feel like sometimes all I do is talk about drama.
00:55:53I'm just saying, from my point of view, I need help as a man with our relationship.
00:55:59I struggle with a lot of these things.
00:56:00You know that.
00:56:01That's why I came on this experiment, because I've failed in the real world.
00:56:04I'd rather get these dinner parties talking to positive things and not drama.
00:56:08That's not where I'm coming from.
00:56:11Oh, no.
00:56:13Oh, no.
00:56:14This is a troubling sign, isn't it?
00:56:16That Danny has started to second guess his commitment to Beck.
00:56:22Mm.
00:56:23And these text messages, while he knew they were out there, they've come up again, and
00:56:27he's really now retreating.
00:56:29Yep.
00:56:31I don't know why you're getting much out.
00:56:33You're just saying, my peers.
00:56:35Your boss will ride or die in your...
00:56:36I am ride or die, because I am.
00:56:38You're probably under the bar.
00:56:39No, I'm not throwing you under the bus.
00:56:40I'm not throwing you under the bus.
00:56:41I'm ride or die.
00:56:42You saw that out of the retreat.
00:56:44You saw that out of the retreat.
00:56:46Beck and Danny's relationship has been so much stronger the past few weeks, so to see
00:56:50this now, at this point in the process, is very discouraging.
00:56:56Because I want us to have a really good relationship.
00:56:58We have a really good...
00:56:59We do.
00:56:59Daniel, do not sit here.
00:57:01Do not sit here.
00:57:01I didn't say we did.
00:57:02Just relax.
00:57:03Do not sit here.
00:57:04Don't be sassy with me.
00:57:05Don't sit here and say, I want us to have a good relationship, but we don't because of
00:57:11drama.
00:57:12Did I say we don't?
00:57:13No, I just want you to be wary of that.
00:57:14Did I say we don't?
00:57:15Did I say we don't?
00:57:16No.
00:57:17No.
00:57:17I said I want us to have a good relationship.
00:57:19I just want you to be wary about what you say.
00:57:21I'm very wary.
00:57:22I want you to be wary about what you text people.
00:57:26Sure, two months ago, Daniel.
00:57:27Two months ago.
00:57:28I think that was ten years ago.
00:57:31I'm done.
00:57:32I've got to go.
00:57:35Has no one ever f***ed up before?
00:57:37We've been talking about this for nearly two months.
00:57:40I can't.
00:57:44What?
00:57:55Don't sit here and say, I want us to have a good relationship, but we don't because of
00:58:01drama.
00:58:01It didn't cut it.
00:58:02Did I say we don't?
00:58:03I want us to have a good relationship.
00:58:05I want you to be wary about what we say.
00:58:07I'm very wary.
00:58:08I want you to be wary about what you text people.
00:58:11Sure, two months ago, Daniel.
00:58:12Two months ago.
00:58:13I think that was ten years ago.
00:58:18I'm done.
00:58:19I've got to go.
00:58:33I'm done.
00:58:35I'm not going back in.
00:58:36I'm done.
00:58:37I want out now.
00:58:39I'm done.
00:58:44I'm done.
00:58:45I'm not going back into that dinner party.
00:58:48I want some joint down here.
00:58:49Let's go to the couch for a sec.
00:58:53I want out.
00:58:54Take me downstairs.
00:58:56I want out.
00:58:57Get me out of here.
00:58:59F***ing f***ing me.
00:59:02How are you feeling?
00:59:05I feel like I'm wasting my time at a dinner party talking about abusive text messages that
00:59:11are sent.
00:59:12I came here to work on my relationship and to try and be a good husband and stuff.
00:59:17And it's like I can't voice my opinion because then she says I'm throwing her under the bus.
00:59:23He says, oh, we're ride or die.
00:59:24We're ride or die.
00:59:25We're not.
00:59:26We're not ride or die.
00:59:29We're not ride or die.
00:59:31This is not okay.
00:59:33Every single week I come to these dinner parties.
00:59:37Every single week.
00:59:38And it's, this has happened.
00:59:40This has happened.
00:59:41Do you ever say this to you?
00:59:42It's like I don't care no more.
00:59:45I'm here for a wife and a relationship.
00:59:47I'm not here for drama.
00:59:50Do not, do not sit there in front of everyone and not show solidarity to me because I've had
00:59:56to apologise to someone.
01:00:02Pretend.
01:00:03Just pretend for the sake of me.
01:00:08Pretend for two minutes.
01:00:12Sunday night.
01:00:14It's the second last commitment ceremony.
01:00:17You ask the question of like, all right, if we go outside the experiment, how quick would
01:00:21you expect like a proposal?
01:00:23I say the sooner the better.
01:00:24Wow.
01:00:25And some are already locking in plans for married life outside of the experiment.
01:00:30The man is leaving.
01:00:32And he is actually starting to show me what my life here in Sydney could look like.
01:00:36And then.
01:00:37So last week you said that the noise from the group and around Gia doesn't affect your
01:00:43relationship.
01:00:44Do you still believe that?
01:00:46Will Scott speak up and confess how he feels in front of Gia?
01:00:51I will admit like.
01:00:56The question, what was it like?
01:00:58It was a bit.
01:00:58Could you see yourself falling in love with me?
01:01:01Why is Danny dodging the question?
01:01:10In one of the most confronting couch sessions ever seen.
01:01:15It's a pretty black and white question.
01:01:20Before the blind side.
01:01:25That will leave the room speechless.
01:01:29I just can't believe it.
01:01:32And now, the fallout after the dinner party.
01:01:37Only on Stan.
