FunTranscript
00:00:00With the experiment in its final stages...
00:00:03I really want to thank Mel for her advice to focus on the emotional safety.
00:00:07That was just like a penny drop moment for me.
00:00:10Guidance from the experts helped Stella and Philip get their relationship back on track.
00:00:15I wrote, stare.
00:00:18And last night saw some continue to celebrate their love for one another.
00:00:23I feel really connected to Rachel, we're getting closer.
00:00:25I would like to leave.
00:00:29Chris blindsided Sam.
00:00:31Stay.
00:00:32In this experiment, one person says stay and the other person says leave.
00:00:36The couple stays.
00:00:37He asked me to be his girlfriend.
00:00:39What inspired you to ask Beck that question?
00:00:42And when it was time to open up and reveal his true feelings...
00:00:46It was important to Beck.
00:00:48Why was it important to you?
00:00:50Danny squirmed his way through an uncomfortable couch session.
00:00:54The question, what was it like?
00:00:55Could you see yourself falling in love with him?
00:00:57Yeah.
00:00:58It's a pretty black and white question.
00:01:00I don't think you can promise that before you're in love with someone.
00:01:03Sales man answer.
00:01:07Tonight, the experiment goes across the country.
00:01:12Welcome home.
00:01:13Hello.
00:01:14Home stays week has arrived.
00:01:17Over two big nights, our couples get a glimpse of what married life will look like.
00:01:23Yes.
00:01:24Beyond the experiment.
00:01:25Woo!
00:01:26Passenger princess.
00:01:28Steven sets sail on an exciting new future with Rachel.
00:01:32This is such a special place for him.
00:01:34How lucky am I for him to have welcomed me into this?
00:01:37I kind of like holding a rod and getting kissed.
00:01:40Oh, hang on.
00:01:43My vibes on the wedding day weren't really positive.
00:01:46And I'm here to protect her.
00:01:48Stella's outspoken guests from her wedding day are back.
00:01:52So, like, I've...
00:01:53I'm getting...
00:01:54Sorry to interrupt you.
00:01:55I'm getting some not so confident vibes from over here.
00:01:59And then...
00:02:00Welcome.
00:02:01Scott shows off to Gia his waterside home.
00:02:05Oh, it's a bit messy.
00:02:06So random.
00:02:08Weird.
00:02:09This wouldn't be big enough.
00:02:10It'd be better if that wasn't there.
00:02:11Is Gia the most high-maintenance house guest Scott's ever seen?
00:02:16Um, my house is way cleaner.
00:02:18Ugh.
00:02:19Yeah, I couldn't...
00:02:19I couldn't live here.
00:02:20If the roles were reversed and I was at Gia's house, I wouldn't say anything but nice things.
00:02:33It's the beginning of one of the most exciting phases of the experiment.
00:02:38Homestays.
00:02:39Can't believe I'm actually going to Adelaide.
00:02:41I know.
00:02:42I think you're gonna love her.
00:02:44And this year, each of our couples will be going to the destination where they plan to live beyond the
00:02:50experiment.
00:02:52Ready to go?
00:02:52What'd you pack?
00:02:54Ready to go to Adelaide.
00:02:57Radelaide.
00:02:58The homestays have always been an essential part of the Married at First Sight experiment,
00:03:03as it allows our participants valuable insight into their partner's world.
00:03:08They'll have to blindfold you on the way to the fishing spot.
00:03:11But once we get there, I can take the blindfold off and catch a few, uh, flatties.
00:03:17Yeah.
00:03:17And, oh, there might be a blindfold in the bedroom too.
00:03:20Oh, no, babes, not at your parents' house.
00:03:23Sorry.
00:03:25This week is also the perfect opportunity for our couples to put into practice all that they've learned from the
00:03:31experiment so far and apply it to the outside world.
00:03:35As most of our couples are packed and ready to embark on their individual journeys,
00:03:41Phillip is feeling the pressure as homestays could make or break his future with Stella.
00:03:48He is the one expected to make the move from Melbourne to Sydney.
00:03:52All you need to have is some board shorts.
00:03:55Some boardies, some shorts.
00:03:56That's it.
00:03:57Shorts.
00:03:58Yeah.
00:03:58Anything else?
00:03:59Like toothbrush?
00:04:00Nah.
00:04:01We don't brush teeth out in Cronulla, do we?
00:04:03I just want to see Stella kind of, you know, natural environment outside the experiment.
00:04:07I'm obviously from Melbourne.
00:04:09I love it there.
00:04:10The pressure's going to be on my decision to move to Sydney.
00:04:14Since we first got together, we were always talking about it and, you know, kind of spending some time out
00:04:20there, particularly even after the experiment.
00:04:22So it feels like it's come around in like two seconds.
00:04:24Yeah.
00:04:24We obviously work in this experiment and this is just the further validation that our relationship will work on the
00:04:31outside if I can see myself there.
00:04:34Super keen to get out of this concrete jungle.
00:04:38Yeah.
00:04:38And we're going to switcheroo for some beach action.
00:04:42Yeah.
00:04:44Done.
00:04:47Across the hall, however, Gia and Scott are still recovering from last night's tense couch session.
00:04:57I don't like drama.
00:04:58I don't like any of that.
00:04:58I don't want it in my life.
00:05:00And I know Gia's been involved in some inside the experiment and I have to know whether it's the pressure
00:05:07in here or whether this is outside as well.
00:05:10It's about how you carry yourself.
00:05:12It's common knowledge.
00:05:12I would never do that.
00:05:13That's what I'm saying.
00:05:14From the stuff that's in the experiment, I don't want to see that outside the experiment.
00:05:18Okay.
00:05:18That's all it is.
00:05:19I'm not saying anything bad.
00:05:19It's just what I've seen.
00:05:20Just, you don't know me well enough then.
00:05:23Babe, I'm only helping.
00:05:24It's just not who I am.
00:05:25I just do not do that in life.
00:05:27I'm just helping.
00:05:27Okay.
00:05:28I do nursing.
00:05:29Like, I'm a kind person.
00:05:30I'm not saying that you're like that.
00:05:30I'm a kind person.
00:05:31I would never, but anyway.
00:05:32I'm not saying it like that.
00:05:33I'm trying to just say what I'm feeling.
00:05:38It was very hurtful last night.
00:05:40We've never had this conversation.
00:05:42He's never said, hey, I'm concerned of drama in the outside world.
00:05:44He's never.
00:05:45So, yeah.
00:05:47I just felt like it was just unnecessary last night.
00:05:50I was already copying it and it was just another fuel to the fire moment from Scott.
00:05:55So, yeah.
00:05:56That is a blind side to me.
00:06:00How was last night for you?
00:06:04It was a tough session.
00:06:07You were telling me that you felt like I threw you under the bus, which I apologize to make you
00:06:11feel that way.
00:06:12It wasn't my intention.
00:06:14Well, yeah, you apologized for how I felt.
00:06:16You didn't apologize for what you did.
00:06:19I felt attacked and I feel really hurt by what happened last night.
00:06:26I do think he's empathetic, but I think there's a limit to his empathetic-ness, if that makes sense.
00:06:33I just want him to know that, like, I can't just get over this in five minutes because I don't
00:06:38want to be put in a position like this again.
00:06:41Everyone is entitled to feel how they want to feel and work things out how they want to.
00:06:46I'm not saying that you are right now.
00:06:47I'm not controlling your feelings, Gia.
00:06:48I let you do yourself.
00:06:49I'm just saying right now.
00:06:50I'm just saying right now, it was brought up last night.
00:06:52I didn't feel like I heard and that you understood where I was coming from.
00:06:59So, throughout this whole experience, do you feel like I haven't been listening to any tough problems?
00:07:02I'm just saying I would like it if you look at it at a different person's point of view and
00:07:07not your own.
00:07:09Yeah.
00:07:10If I'm going to say anything that I'm struggling in a relationship, it's because I want to fix it to
00:07:15make us better.
00:07:18I'm not here to try and make my partner look bad.
00:07:22I'm trying to help us.
00:07:24But she immediately gets into defensive mode.
00:07:27I'm at the point where I don't know what to do and I feel like I can't speak.
00:07:31Okay.
00:07:32I apologise.
00:07:33It's obviously been a lot.
00:07:36So, I didn't need a grilling last night from my husband on the couch either.
00:07:40Okay.
00:07:40Well, I apologise that you feel like I gave you a grilling.
00:07:42I'm just trying to help you.
00:07:43Right.
00:07:44Because I care about our relationship.
00:07:46I genuinely care about us.
00:07:47That's why I'm still here.
00:07:53I'm getting frustrated.
00:07:54I'm just...
00:07:54I don't know what to do anymore.
00:07:56What else am I supposed to do?
00:07:58This is why I can't fall in love right now.
00:08:00Because there's constant pressure.
00:08:02There's constant arguments.
00:08:04Okay.
00:08:04Should we go pack, get the hell out of here?
00:08:08Yeah.
00:08:09Cool.
00:08:12They're going to argue and debate about something so bloody simple.
00:08:15What's it going to be like outside this when we face a little hurdle?
00:08:21Down the hall, Bec and Danny are busy packing the essentials.
00:08:27All packed.
00:08:28I went to Chemist Warehouse quickly and got some bits.
00:08:30It'll be so fresh.
00:08:32Yay.
00:08:34As a Melbourne-based Danny prepares to head to Bec's home in Adelaide for the first time.
00:08:40I'm also excited to, like, go for a big walk with you and so you can actually see, like, the
00:08:44surrounds of where I live.
00:08:45During last night's commitment ceremony, Danny made a reluctant revelation about the official status of their relationship.
00:08:55And he asked me to be his girlfriend.
00:08:59That's quite a move.
00:09:01What inspired you to ask Bec that question?
00:09:04But, like, it was important to Bec, you know, because, like...
00:09:08Why was it important to you?
00:09:12Well, because it gives Bec security.
00:09:15Why was it important to you to ask her that?
00:09:21Because I know it would be special to Bec.
00:09:24Why was it important to you?
00:09:30Well, because I wanted to be my girlfriend, like...
00:09:34You know?
00:09:37Obviously, as we know, like, I told him I love him and...
00:09:40He's not quite there yet, but...
00:09:42I just hope that when he sees me in my natural habitat, that he's like...
00:09:47You know, everything I've told him about my life, he can see and envisage and, you know, maybe gets him
00:09:52that one step closer to loving me too.
00:09:57You will see why I say it's the perfect place to raise kids.
00:10:01Because it's...it's pretty, it's safe, you've got a lot of space, you know.
00:10:07Um...
00:10:08Good schools, but everywhere's 20 minutes to get to, it's the best.
00:10:11It's good, yeah.
00:10:12It's really good.
00:10:13I'm excited to see it.
00:10:15I've known Bec inside the experiment, where obviously there's a different side to Bec, which is when she's at home.
00:10:21You don't know a gorilla until you see the gorilla in its natural habitat, is what they say.
00:10:27So, um, not comparing Bec to a gorilla.
00:10:30But, yeah, it would be nice to see her in a natural habitat.
00:10:34Should we shoot off?
00:10:35Let's go.
00:10:36Yay! How exciting!
00:10:40Shall we?
00:10:41Shall we?
00:10:42Oui, oui!
00:10:43We shall!
00:10:43Oui, oui!
00:10:44While most of our couples are packed and ready to leave...
00:10:48Adelaide, here we come.
00:10:50Adelaide, here we come.
00:10:53One couple is yet to depart, having just woken up in separate apartments after Chris wrote leave at last night's
00:11:01commitment ceremony, leaving Sam blindsided.
00:11:06I've been going back and forth the last couple of days, um, and I've actually decided that I need and
00:11:13I want to go put my dad hat on, and I would like to leave.
00:11:20I just think that I need to concentrate on this next thing that's coming, and he's gonna, he's an amazing
00:11:26guy, and he'll be amazing for someone.
00:11:28I just don't think it's me for the moment.
00:11:35It sucks to see him write leave.
00:11:39And it's just really disappointing, because a week ago we were in such a good spot.
00:11:44I can see a magical, amazing life with Chris.
00:11:47I would hate for our last interaction to be that couch session.
00:11:52One person says stay, one person says leave, you're meant to stay for another week and just see.
00:11:56And like, going out to Chris's farm, this is something Chris and I have been looking forward to through the
00:12:01whole experiment.
00:12:02So I'm trying to stay open and lean in.
00:12:08There's always a glimmer I hope.
00:12:12Next door, Chris has also spent the morning reflecting.
00:12:17Obviously last night's couch session was, was brutal.
00:12:21I got defensive.
00:12:23But this is part of the experiment.
00:12:24They do hold a mirror up to you.
00:12:26And maybe there was some behavioral issues that I was doing that I wasn't aware of.
00:12:31I've realized that I not only came on this experiment to find love in a husband, but, you know, I
00:12:35do want to grow as a person.
00:12:37And I've realized that I, um, so I need to work on a few things on myself.
00:12:42So I'm going to move forward and give this another crack to see if Sam and I can turn it
00:12:47around at homestays.
00:12:49Have some fun at the farm and see where I'm going to be raising the children.
00:12:54And see if we can rekindle what we had in the beginning.
00:13:06Here we go.
00:13:08Central Coast homestays.
00:13:10Please go.
00:13:12Our couples are now en route to their respective homestays.
00:13:17We're going to Barney Doo.
00:13:20And while most make a beeline for their destination.
00:13:25Hey, babe, can we stop at KFC to get some food for the road trip?
00:13:29Sounds like a plan to me. Let's pull in.
00:13:31Okay, what can I get for you today?
00:13:33Two go buckets, please.
00:13:35Do you want a chip before we turn out?
00:13:37Yeah, why not?
00:13:40The first to touch down are Gia and Scott, where Melbourne-based Gia already has plans in place to move
00:13:48to the Gold Coast immediately after the experiment.
00:13:51I swear we can play tennis at night or whenever you play tennis in your bikini.
00:13:57Get a tan while I'm playing.
00:14:00This morning was, yeah, really tense.
00:14:03But since we've been off the plane, I'm feeling really good. I'm really happy.
00:14:06I'm just happy to be home.
00:14:07We're in Scotty's place on the Gold Coast.
00:14:09That's where we are right now.
00:14:10And I am bloody excited to introduce my wife to my place, my couch, my bedroom, the whole lot.
00:14:18And you can't be angry on the Gold Coast. It's bloody sunny.
00:14:22It's hot. That's what we want.
00:14:24I'll just show you around.
00:14:28Welcome.
00:14:33Should I take my shoes off?
00:14:35Yes, please.
00:14:35Because I know you don't like shoes in the house.
00:14:38Good.
00:14:39Oh, it's a bit messy.
00:14:41Messy?
00:14:44Is there stuff over there?
00:14:46That's just my bike helmets.
00:14:48Okay.
00:14:49I'd be lying if I didn't say I'm coming in here looking for a problem or looking for something to
00:14:54not be happy about.
00:14:55Like, that's just what women do.
00:14:56Why are you walking around like you're just sussing or something?
00:14:59I'm looking for problems.
00:15:01Why do you have a rug on a rug?
00:15:02Put your feet on it.
00:15:03Yeah, like, yeah, nice.
00:15:05But it looks strange.
00:15:06It's like a pee pad or something on a rug.
00:15:08It's like, why is it there?
00:15:10This is upstairs.
00:15:13So random.
00:15:14You can look at the water when you're in the spot.
00:15:17Okay.
00:15:18Do you game?
00:15:19I work.
00:15:21It's so picky.
00:15:22What are they?
00:15:23It's more of an ornament.
00:15:25I don't know why that's there.
00:15:26I don't know where I was going to put it.
00:15:28It would be better if that wasn't there.
00:15:29Oh my gosh.
00:15:30Weird.
00:15:30Shit.
00:15:31God.
00:15:32Yeah, you'd have to move that.
00:15:34My tree's dead.
00:15:35No, my uncle gave that to me before he died.
00:15:38Shit.
00:15:39He died and the plant.
00:15:40That's not nice.
00:15:42If the roles were reversed and I was at Gia's house, I wouldn't say anything but nice things.
00:15:46It's definitely not as clean as I thought.
00:15:48Um, my house is way cleaner.
00:15:51End of story.
00:15:53I could spend a couple of hours, like, just fixing a few things.
00:15:55That's alright, you can do that.
00:15:56Yeah.
00:15:57I would make Gia feel happy and comfortable knowing that I'm in her home and she's proud
00:16:02of what she's done and what she's made.
00:16:04I wouldn't go, oh, yuck, this is shit, that's shit.
00:16:07I'd be like, wow, you've done such a good job.
00:16:09Like, if the house is a mess, yes, I would say something.
00:16:11But I know she's like me, she's a clean person.
00:16:14But I wouldn't go nitpicking, no.
00:16:16This is the walking robe.
00:16:19You coming?
00:16:24What's that?
00:16:26It's a neck brace.
00:16:27Why is it pink?
00:16:29Why is it pink? Why not?
00:16:31Look at you trying to find a problem.
00:16:33Well, I'm just wondering why it's pink.
00:16:37Is it your exes or something?
00:16:39Oh, yeah, sure.
00:16:40Gab and Maria bought it.
00:16:42Yeah.
00:16:42If I had, where's mine then, if I had another one?
00:16:44If there was one for me.
00:16:44No, I'm asking why it's pink.
00:16:46I don't know.
00:16:47That was weird.
00:16:48That was a bit of a red flag to me because he told me he's never had a girl at
00:16:52this house.
00:16:53So, why is that there?
00:16:56Okay, so what we're going to do is we're going to call Gab and Maria.
00:16:59And we're going to call them and I'm going to say, did you guys buy me this neck brace?
00:17:02And they're going to say yes.
00:17:04I just, it doesn't make sense.
00:17:06The math isn't mathing for me.
00:17:12What else?
00:17:13What the hell?
00:17:17Are you okay?
00:17:19No, I'm not okay because I want to know more about that thing in here.
00:17:22Let's go have a look.
00:17:23So, the pillow.
00:17:26It's like I need to give reason for everything I have.
00:17:30I've not done anything to make Gia not trust me.
00:17:33I'm trying to find problems.
00:17:34You're trying to find a problem.
00:17:35So, you look at a bloody neck brace for a plane.
00:17:37But it's pink.
00:17:39A normal thing to think.
00:17:40I don't think there's not one thing I could say that I've made her feel like she shouldn't trust me.
00:17:45I've been very honest and vulnerable this whole relationship and experiment.
00:17:49Imagine if you came to my house and you saw some dude stuff.
00:17:51I wouldn't judge you because I know you were single.
00:17:54Can I put up with this every day of the week?
00:17:57Trying to find a problem.
00:17:58You shouldn't need to find someone if you trust a person.
00:18:01So, if you don't trust me, tell me.
00:18:09Further north, Rachel and Stephen are arriving at Stephen's parents' holiday home on the central coast of New South Wales,
00:18:17where Stephen plans to introduce Melbourne-based wife Rachel to the coastal lifestyle.
00:18:23Am I getting on first?
00:18:24You get on first.
00:18:25Okay.
00:18:26Hold my hand if you want.
00:18:28As you get in.
00:18:29Is this a little seat for me?
00:18:31Front seat's for you.
00:18:32Woo!
00:18:33Passenger princess!
00:18:35And Stephen has wasted no time taking Rachel out to enjoy his favourite pastime.
00:18:41Do I look cute?
00:18:43Do I look cute?
00:18:44There should have been my vibes.
00:18:50Yeah!
00:18:52The last time I was on the boat was definitely well over a decade ago.
00:18:58And I was extremely seasick.
00:19:01We are off.
00:19:05Where'd she get married?
00:19:06Oh my God!
00:19:07Lol!
00:19:09The last time I was on the boat was when I got married!
00:19:14Alrighty.
00:19:15So, tell me Rachel, where's the fish at?
00:19:19Where's the fish at?
00:19:19I don't know.
00:19:21You're the captain.
00:19:22You lead me.
00:19:24I'm very nervous about this.
00:19:26Yeah, I'm nervous.
00:19:28So much is falling on homestays because me and Rachel have discussed locations outside the experiment
00:19:34and I've bluntly put it too, Rachel.
00:19:36Look, I probably can't compromise on anyone else at the moment besides Sydney.
00:19:41Oh man, this is all about seeing if Rachel can fit into my life.
00:19:47And if this doesn't work out for this small snippet, what's it going to look like, you know, in the
00:19:52real world?
00:19:54We're here.
00:19:55The secret flatty hole.
00:19:57And, you know, romance happens in all different sorts of ways.
00:20:01It doesn't have to be candle lights and drinks.
00:20:03You just sit there and be pretty for a sec.
00:20:06Alright, I've got your weapon right here.
00:20:08I may not express my feelings to her and go,
00:20:11Hey Rachel, I like you this much today or I like you this much.
00:20:15But I sort of show it in gestures.
00:20:19Here's your passenger princess.
00:20:20I'll even put the bait on for you so you don't have to get your hands all dirty.
00:20:24Taking her out in the boat and showing her my fishing spot.
00:20:27Things, that's how I show my love towards someone.
00:20:30And let me know when you get a nice little tug on it.
00:20:34Because I'll be very excited.
00:20:38Oh, I'm on!
00:20:41We're definitely floaty and cheeky today.
00:20:46And it's really nice to see Steven in his element as well.
00:20:50Alright, and this is fishing.
00:20:51You sit here, like this.
00:20:54What, no wine?
00:20:55No snacks for the passenger princess?
00:20:57Fire, I am a...
00:20:59I know, I'm glad you...
00:21:01But I'm responsible as well.
00:21:02No alcohol in the boat.
00:21:03I'm not driving.
00:21:07Hang on.
00:21:07Wait, whoa.
00:21:09Is that a thing?
00:21:10No.
00:21:10You tell me?
00:21:11I don't know, babe.
00:21:13I can see Steven and I together.
00:21:16That's simple.
00:21:16That's easy.
00:21:17We do that every day.
00:21:18But can I see myself a part of his broader life?
00:21:22Oh, oh.
00:21:24You know, we've come so far since our wedding and our honeymoon
00:21:28and all of that, you know, so I'm really grateful to be here
00:21:31and also grateful to be here.
00:21:33You might need to do a rebate and would have baited you.
00:21:36This is such a special place for him and his family,
00:21:38so how lucky am I for him to have welcomed me into this?
00:21:43Oh, she's on!
00:21:44I got one!
00:21:46I got one!
00:21:47Oh, no, I did.
00:21:48I really did.
00:21:49I really got one.
00:21:50Oh, my God, Steven!
00:21:53Steven, I got a fit!
00:21:55Okay, I don't know what to do now.
00:21:56You're going to have to come and help me.
00:21:58Okay.
00:21:59Okay.
00:22:00Hi.
00:22:00Bring him in.
00:22:01Bring him in?
00:22:02Yep.
00:22:06I think, yes, me going out there and showing that I know
00:22:09how to handle a rod was absolutely an aphrodisiac for him.
00:22:14There you go.
00:22:16Why would you put him in there to flick?
00:22:19I'm not going to hand him to you.
00:22:20Steven!
00:22:22All right, hang on.
00:22:23Oh, I'm so scared.
00:22:23Because if he flicks, you can drop him back in the bucket.
00:22:25I'm so scared.
00:22:27Come here, babe.
00:22:28They are spiky.
00:22:30Yay!
00:22:31There you go.
00:22:35Giant.
00:22:38Bye, baby.
00:22:43Yeah, it is impressive.
00:22:44It's not every day you meet a woman that's willing to do that.
00:22:48Appreciate it.
00:22:48Pulling in the fish and touching the prawns.
00:22:52I didn't have the babysitter.
00:22:56Yeah, it's sexy.
00:22:58Must admit, I kind of like holding a rod and getting kissed.
00:23:01Hang on.
00:23:03Hang on.
00:23:09Hang on.
00:23:12Having settled into Scott's home on the Gold Coast, Melbourne-based Gia has made another
00:23:18shocking discovery.
00:23:20I just don't even know, like, my stuff wouldn't even fit in that closet.
00:23:23You won't need to.
00:23:25What do you mean?
00:23:25Like, for now, until we find another place, do you know what I mean?
00:23:29For now, this will do for whatever until we sort our stuff out.
00:23:34But, like, for me to move in...
00:23:36100%.
00:23:37Like, just the closet and stuff, like, just be too stressful.
00:23:40For me, personally, I don't want to be, like, a princess or, like, annoying, but, like,
00:23:44his closet is big, but I'd have to share that closet with him, and it's, like, just all
00:23:50my stuff would be crammed in one, like, shelf in one area.
00:23:52It's just, like, that's not comfortable for me to live.
00:23:55Yeah, like, I just have a lot of stuff.
00:23:57Like, I have two closets for myself and a whole beauty room with shelves of more stuff.
00:24:03We've already discussed it in time that we'll get a house, because we have your daughter
00:24:07and stuff, so...
00:24:08This wouldn't be big enough.
00:24:09Like, my, the other room for her, like, like, where would my mum stay if my mum visited?
00:24:14Because my mum lives in Melbourne.
00:24:15So, yeah, like, it just, like, wouldn't logistically work.
00:24:19I'm saying temporarily.
00:24:21Apparently there's no positives.
00:24:23And this is the problem.
00:24:24It's my house.
00:24:25I'm proud of it.
00:24:26I've done everything here.
00:24:27I've built everything myself.
00:24:28Yeah.
00:24:28For a guy before I met you by himself...
00:24:30No, this is great for a guy for himself.
00:24:32100%.
00:24:32Like, it's great.
00:24:33But I don't want to cram all my shit in one little section of your closet.
00:24:36Like, that's...
00:24:37Like, I can't do that.
00:24:39Raises a few questions.
00:24:40Like, is she like that with anything that's around me or that I introduce her to?
00:24:44It's just probably not big enough for what I'm used to.
00:24:48But for you it's good.
00:24:50It is a bit scary thinking that, like, what is life going to be like outside the experiment.
00:24:56Great.
00:24:57Already feel better.
00:24:58These are little things that I can see may be a bit of an impact on us.
00:25:05Cute.
00:25:05So cute.
00:25:06So cute.
00:25:12South of Sydney, Stella and Phillip are meeting with Stella's chosen family, Joe and Layla.
00:25:19Hi.
00:25:19Hey.
00:25:21Hey.
00:25:21Hi.
00:25:22How are you?
00:25:23Hi.
00:25:24Hello.
00:25:26That's really nice to see you.
00:25:27You're good?
00:25:28You're good?
00:25:29You're well?
00:25:30Thanks for having us.
00:25:32We're really excited to see how Stella's going with Phillip.
00:25:35We've given him their space, their time.
00:25:38I'm hoping that he is the right guy.
00:25:42What is happening?
00:25:44I love you.
00:25:46My vibes on the wedding day weren't really positive.
00:25:52At Stella and Phillip's wedding, Joe had his doubts about Stella's new groom.
00:25:56Who in their vows talks about their YouTube channel and this and that?
00:26:05Impressive and private.
00:26:06And your vows is really your...
00:26:07What's your vow to your partner?
00:26:09Is this.
00:26:12That's like a red flag.
00:26:14And after expressing these concerns to Stella and bridesmaid Layla...
00:26:20However, and I'm going to be completely transparent, I'm getting a red flag.
00:26:25Absolutely.
00:26:27I'm telling you now, I don't think he has hinted on the right foot.
00:26:34I agree.
00:26:36Layla confronted Phillip.
00:26:38Stella didn't come here and talk to you about her business.
00:26:40It just adds to my story as how I changed my life.
00:26:43I don't care.
00:26:44I don't care.
00:26:46I'm telling you right.
00:26:47I'm going to stop you just for a second.
00:26:48You're irritated.
00:26:49Okay.
00:26:49It's okay.
00:26:50I'm just listening to what you're saying.
00:26:52No, no, no.
00:26:53It's okay.
00:26:53Breathe.
00:26:54No, I'm relaxed.
00:26:55I'm breathing.
00:26:56No, you're getting really worked up.
00:26:57I can feel it.
00:26:58I can feel it.
00:26:58I can feel it.
00:26:59You don't have to tell me.
00:27:00I feel your energy.
00:27:01You are agitated.
00:27:05Generously.
00:27:06All right.
00:27:06Let's go.
00:27:06Let's go.
00:27:07Let's go.
00:27:07That's just being the protective friend.
00:27:10Yeah.
00:27:10I hope they enjoy the food.
00:27:14You pretty much did it.
00:27:16And it's going to be a good way of catching him in his sort of off guard, you know.
00:27:23I haven't really been in touch with Salat.
00:27:25I've been trying to keep up with everything.
00:27:28Coming in here, yeah, I'm excited, nervously excited.
00:27:32Yeah.
00:27:33And I'm definitely not going to be disrespectful.
00:27:35I'm going to listen and absorb.
00:27:38Because, you know, you don't mess with someone who's making you food, you know.
00:27:41No dietaries, right?
00:27:42Yeah.
00:27:43Or the person who does your tax, you know, so.
00:27:47So, yeah.
00:27:48Oh, yeah.
00:27:48How's it going?
00:27:49Look, I haven't seen you since the wedding day.
00:27:51Wedding, yeah.
00:27:52How are the living arrangements going?
00:27:54How are you...
00:27:55Are you...
00:27:56Is there a connection there?
00:27:58Like, with the whole...
00:27:59Yeah, of course.
00:28:00There is, of course.
00:28:02Amazing.
00:28:02It was from, like, the get-go.
00:28:05Get-go?
00:28:05Yeah.
00:28:05That's right.
00:28:06That's right.
00:28:06Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:28:07Because I'm not going to lie to you.
00:28:08I did have...
00:28:10I wanted to ask about the wedding.
00:28:12This is what I wanted to ask about the wedding, but you asked another question.
00:28:15Okay, okay.
00:28:15Let's talk about the wedding.
00:28:16Let's go.
00:28:19My concern for her is she's given up so much.
00:28:25She's come out to Australia.
00:28:26You're not selling me here, guys.
00:28:28No.
00:28:28But I am selling you here.
00:28:30She's...
00:28:31She's given up a lot of her life, you know?
00:28:34She's given up her family, her friends, and everything.
00:28:38And my only concern is I know what she's looking for.
00:28:43She's looking for longevity.
00:28:47And I'm here to protect her.
00:29:07And I'm here to protect her.
00:29:15And the questions that came from Joe's mouth, it's almost like he's asking what I'm feeling.
00:29:21Yeah.
00:29:22So he was doing, you know, I guess, the screening for me.
00:29:28Dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da-dun-da
00:29:34-dun-da.
00:29:34Hey!
00:29:35Cheers!
00:29:36Salud!
00:29:37So, what is the plan?
00:29:39Are you moving to Melbourne? Are you moving to Sydney?
00:29:42From the get-go, he said that he wouldn't be moving.
00:29:45I've always been open to moving,
00:29:49providing I met the right person.
00:29:53I think, I don't know.
00:29:54Sorry, do you think you've met the right person?
00:29:58Well, this is the thing.
00:30:00Like feelings, it's on the way, yes.
00:30:04I need more information.
00:30:06Sorry to interrupt you.
00:30:06I'm getting some not-so-confident vibes from over here.
00:30:12I am not convinced, Stella,
00:30:15that you have complete confidence.
00:30:18I don't at the end of the day.
00:30:22And unfortunately, at this given stage,
00:30:24we do have the wishy-washy situation
00:30:27and I don't want to ask and impose myself too much.
00:30:32I don't want to put more pressure on him
00:30:35because, you know, he did mention a couple of times,
00:30:38you know, it's also a lot of pressure on him.
00:30:40And I, like, I don't want to pressure him
00:30:43into giving me any answers.
00:30:45Okay.
00:30:46Love is not enough.
00:30:47Like, I don't think, like, Leila does.
00:30:52They're a beautiful couple.
00:30:54Like, he's a good-looking guy.
00:30:55She's an incredibly good-looking woman.
00:30:58I know Stella.
00:31:00She's a great rock.
00:31:02I know that she's quite serious about it.
00:31:05I think he is as well.
00:31:09But I think their foundation is unstable at the moment.
00:31:15So, out of 100...
00:31:16Yep.
00:31:17Joe, Joe, Joe!
00:31:20We're getting into, like...
00:31:21No, no, no, no.
00:31:22Well, they both came into this experiment for a reason.
00:31:26Yeah, we did.
00:31:27Yeah.
00:31:28Stella, where do you see yourself out of 100?
00:31:31Um, if he would be here in Sydney...
00:31:34You need to give me a number.
00:31:35Just a number.
00:31:38It would be 100.
00:31:40Wow.
00:31:41Well, let me bow to you.
00:31:44That is incredible.
00:31:45That's a good man.
00:31:46That is a huge call.
00:31:47I do see growth with him.
00:31:48I do see stability with him.
00:31:50He gives me reassurance, emotional safety.
00:31:53I do see him as a father of the children.
00:31:56Well, you've just reassured me and reassured us.
00:31:59Yeah.
00:32:00You know?
00:32:01So, Philip, where do you see yourself out of 100 right now as a couple?
00:32:07And be completely honest, I will not...
00:32:09And I will not judge you.
00:32:10In this current form, like, right now where we're at, so, like, out of 100, like, honestly,
00:32:2075 out of 100.
00:32:32In Queensland, Melbourne-based Gia is settling into the Gold Coast lifestyle.
00:32:41Do you want to help me with the bed?
00:32:47I'm here temporarily till we find a bigger place.
00:32:50It's like, I just don't know where all my stuff would go.
00:32:52I have a four-bedroom worth of house, like, stuff.
00:32:55Like, I have so much stuff.
00:32:57Like, what am I going to do with it?
00:32:59Can you grab that?
00:33:02No, take them off completely.
00:33:06I don't want to live out of a suitcase.
00:33:08Like, I'd rather just go from my house to another house of that size or bigger.
00:33:13Like, that's just what I'm used to.
00:33:16My bed has, like, two sets of these, another big Euro and, like, three other ones across
00:33:23here.
00:33:23I have, like, a big, thick, like, furry mink that I fold and have on a certain way.
00:33:27I have, like, heated blanket underneath because I'm always cold.
00:33:31Jeez Louise.
00:33:32Yeah, I have so many things.
00:33:33I have, like, three mattress toppers because I want it, like, so cloud.
00:33:35It's not going to be full of pink, though, is it?
00:33:37It's all white.
00:33:38Okay, that's all right.
00:33:39It's all white and cream.
00:33:40No, I don't, like, my beauty room is, like, pink and purple.
00:33:44Everything else in my house is white and beige.
00:33:47Everything is white and beige.
00:33:47So we're not allowed to be in my sheets?
00:33:49Yeah, for the spare room, yeah.
00:33:50For the guest room.
00:33:52So I'm the type of guy where, like, I look at why someone's upset.
00:33:56Is this something that's going to be carrying on every single day?
00:33:59Gia's not a go-with-the-flow kind of girl, no.
00:34:01But everyone has their opinion.
00:34:03Gia's very picky.
00:34:04We all know that.
00:34:04That's all right.
00:34:10Yeah, I couldn't live here.
00:34:14South of Sydney, Stella and Philip are facing some harsh truths in front of Joe and Layla.
00:34:21So, Philip, where do you see yourself out of 100 right now as a couple?
00:34:28And be completely honest, and I will not judge you.
00:34:31In this current form, like, right now where we're at,
00:34:36So, like, out of 100, like, honestly, 75 out of 100.
00:34:46What was said by me on the couch when experts asked,
00:34:50oh, but he's giving you reassurance, he's telling you that he's going to move to Sydney.
00:34:54I'm like, it is telling.
00:34:56It's words, it's not actions, right?
00:34:58Like, what he said today, like, you know, I'm 75% sure.
00:35:02And, like, he's not yet there.
00:35:05Yeah, it's just, you're putting yourself on the line again and again and again.
00:35:14I'll tell you what, and I'll tell you what.
00:35:16Like, I've always had this over my head coming into this relationship going,
00:35:20if I don't move to Sydney, this is not going to work.
00:35:22If I don't move to Sydney, this is not going to work.
00:35:24You know what I mean?
00:35:24That's pressure.
00:35:26I need to know where I fit in her lifestyle.
00:35:31Just saying, I need to know where I fit in that.
00:35:33Because if I'm moving and I'm moving my whole social, I leave everyone behind.
00:35:36She is the priority.
00:35:38I need to see that back as well, which I am.
00:35:40Like, I'm just saying, I need to see more of that.
00:35:43It's not, we don't do it on promises.
00:35:44We just need the time aspect to happen.
00:35:48I don't want to say something that I don't feel,
00:35:50which would be disingenuous to Stella.
00:35:53If I was 100 out of 100, I'd be literally moving in all my stuff already.
00:35:57You know, that's where I think we're at.
00:36:00A lot of things you were saying before, that Stella's given up heaps to be here.
00:36:04Yeah.
00:36:04I would argue that I've given up a lot.
00:36:07And I'm willing to give up more to make this happen.
00:36:11Moving forward, like post-experiment, I just need to be sure.
00:36:16Do you know what I'm saying?
00:36:19Like, I need you to, like, as much as I'm showing up for you,
00:36:21I need you to show up for me.
00:36:23You've got to give me the reassurance as much as I am.
00:36:25Like, I'm happy to be a rock.
00:36:25Like, I've been doing a patient and stuff like that.
00:36:27But I need you to kind of meet me there as well.
00:36:34I don't have a 100% guarantee.
00:36:35I wish I had a guarantee.
00:36:38But I just wanted to be truthful and just no BS.
00:36:43Look, he's very convincing.
00:36:45Um, has he told me what I want to hear?
00:36:48Yes, he has.
00:36:50Is that enough for Stella?
00:36:52I'm hoping I'm wrong.
00:36:54And I'm hoping the experiment has got everything right.
00:36:59Hey, I hope I'm wrong.
00:37:03I appreciate you showing up for me.
00:37:05Because...
00:37:05Yeah.
00:37:06We're glad to be here.
00:37:10Still to come...
00:37:12Rachel and Stephen's homestay continues to progress.
00:37:16I mentioned the affection last time we met.
00:37:18Yes.
00:37:18Has that improved?
00:37:20Has improved a lot.
00:37:21Where our focus is sort of heading towards now is outside the experiment.
00:37:25I think you've come a long way.
00:37:27And will Scott be able to voice his concerns with Gia?
00:37:31Oh, like...
00:37:32Yeah, I just...
00:37:34Like...
00:37:34OK.
00:37:36Something like you do, trust me 100%.
00:37:48What's it like living with Stephen?
00:37:52In New South Wales, on the Central Coast, Stephen's parents, brother and sister-in-law, Bianca, are getting up to
00:38:00speed on their relationship.
00:38:01So, Rach...
00:38:03Yes.
00:38:04Please enlighten us.
00:38:07We've come into a good, like, I don't know, what would you call rhythm?
00:38:10You know, I know that Stephen has cracks and I've just showed them patience and learned to live with them.
00:38:17The last time Rachel met with Stephen's family, brother Dylan highlighted Stephen's struggles with intimate affection and connection.
00:38:28Do you think Stephen is affectionate enough?
00:38:40Obviously, I've mentioned the affection last time we met.
00:38:43Yes.
00:38:43Has that improved?
00:38:44It has improved a lot.
00:38:46I'm a very affectionate person, but now I've noticed his hand will come wandering for mine.
00:38:53Yeah.
00:38:54You know, he'll come to me for a hug and all these little things.
00:38:57It's nice.
00:38:58As far as the experiment goes, yeah, we've had our highs and lows.
00:39:02And our highs are a lot higher than our lows.
00:39:05So it's going in the right direction.
00:39:07I think you've come a long way since family stay, whatever it's called.
00:39:12Yeah, look at this.
00:39:12Rachel's the same.
00:39:13Oh, my gosh.
00:39:14That's right.
00:39:16It feels really natural welcoming Rachel and Stephen.
00:39:22As a mum, seeing Stephen in a relationship, I feel fantastic because that's what I've always wanted for him.
00:39:30We're great inside the experiment.
00:39:33Sort of where our focus is sort of heading towards now is outside the experiment.
00:39:38Okay.
00:39:38Different states.
00:39:40Yeah.
00:39:41What are we thinking?
00:39:42Do you want me to tell the plan?
00:39:43I've got the plan.
00:39:43We're thinking Sydney.
00:39:44You've got the plan.
00:39:45Tell us the plan.
00:39:46You, Steve.
00:39:47Let's Steve tell me the plan.
00:39:48Go.
00:39:48Go with Steve because I want to hear your plan.
00:39:53So, to start with, we're sort of going to just do long distance.
00:39:57We're going to give it a time limit of roughly around six months and see where we go from there.
00:40:02Yeah, so I need six more months with the love of my life, which is Melbourne.
00:40:06You know, I built that life for myself, you know, I built that life for myself, I made all my
00:40:10friends, built my career, everything in Melbourne.
00:40:13Yeah, I get that.
00:40:15I know that it's going to come from me because Stephen's business isn't as flexible.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:20And at the end of the day, like, I want this to work and I want our relationship to, like,
00:40:25grow and go forward.
00:40:26So, that's fine.
00:40:28That's all good.
00:40:30At the moment, it looks like Rach pushes the relationship along.
00:40:34So, I don't want Stephen to feel like, well, I'm going to sacrifice everything that I've worked for, everything that
00:40:40I've built.
00:40:41I felt like Stephen never really said, oh, I'm going to sacrifice anything.
00:40:47How does that make you feel, Steve?
00:40:49She's basically saying she's going to move her whole life.
00:40:55Make you feel lucky and, you know, very happy about it, you know, and, um, this feels amazing.
00:41:03But also, at the same time, it actually sort of makes me feel a little bit bad that I'm having
00:41:08compromised that much as well.
00:41:11I feel like the butthole in the relationship.
00:41:13I'm like, yeah, I'm just going to chill here in Sydney and Rachel's going to come to me.
00:41:17Yeah, it's a massive, it's a massive thing.
00:41:20You don't put too much pressure on each other.
00:41:23Six months transition time, Stephen might realise, oh, maybe I'll give Melbourne a go.
00:41:28I've never said never either.
00:41:29He's never said never.
00:41:30I've never said never.
00:41:31He's never said never.
00:41:32Yeah, I get that.
00:41:33No, but look, I'm really happy for you guys, so to be honest, like...
00:41:36Cheers, cheers, cheers on all this.
00:41:37Thank you all so much.
00:41:39Cheers.
00:41:40Cheers.
00:41:41Family dinner with Rachel and Stephen was great.
00:41:44We just got to learn a lot, which for us as a family was very reassuring that things are heading
00:41:49in the right direction.
00:41:50They complement each other.
00:41:51They bring different things to the table.
00:41:53And I definitely think Rachel's had a positive effect on Stephen's life.
00:42:09Excited?
00:42:10Gia.
00:42:10On the Gold Coast, Gia and Scott are spending the day on the water.
00:42:16Nice photo.
00:42:17Yeah, it's nice.
00:42:18Nice photo.
00:42:19Joining them today are Scott's best friends, Matt, Paige, Jackson and Bianca.
00:42:26I'm feeling nervous.
00:42:29Last time with Matt and Paige's family friends at the apartment, Matt put his foot in his mouth and was
00:42:34saying some things.
00:42:36It was just a bit, you know, disrespectful, inappropriate.
00:42:40Is Gia a better version of your ex?
00:42:44Don't compare me to his ex-girlfriend.
00:42:47You want to be controversial, I'll give it back because that's what I'm like.
00:42:51I don't think you can compare because I would never start an OnlyFans.
00:42:56Good to see you, bro.
00:42:57Good to see you, bro.
00:42:58How are you two?
00:42:59I mean, the last commitment ceremony, Alessandra did say, how do you think it's going to go, Gia, with your
00:43:04friends in real life?
00:43:05Do you think she's going to maybe have drama?
00:43:08Because obviously I have in the experiment.
00:43:10Hi.
00:43:11Hi.
00:43:12So, yeah, I mean, I'm probably going to prove myself today.
00:43:15Cheers to the good life and Gia and Scotty.
00:43:18Cheers!
00:43:19I hope everyone's on their best behaviour today.
00:43:23I reckon we'll hit the water, go for a cruise.
00:43:25Done.
00:43:26Cool.
00:43:41It's going to ask me questions, aren't you?
00:43:44That's the name of the game, yeah?
00:43:45That's the whole name of the game, isn't it?
00:43:46Got to get to the bottom of everything, mate.
00:43:48Oh.
00:43:49Yeah.
00:43:49I'm not quite sure if they're the right fit.
00:43:52I want to see where they're at.
00:43:55That for the past week, Scotty went a bit quiet on me, so I know something's up.
00:43:59Yeah.
00:44:00Mm.
00:44:02Have you, uh, anyone dropped the L word yet?
00:44:06Not yet.
00:44:07Yeah.
00:44:08I've had arguments over it, to be honest.
00:44:09Oh, like, you love me first.
00:44:11No, it's like, it's just waiting for me to say it.
00:44:15But I don't want to feel like I need to say it just to make you feel comfortable, you know?
00:44:21And you want it to be real, you don't want it to be forced.
00:44:23Yeah, it's...
00:44:25So what's the next step, blog, you know?
00:44:29Oh, 100% moving, yeah.
00:44:31Like, so I'm going to come with him to the Gold Coast, like, bring all our stuff as soon as
00:44:35we leave,
00:44:36look for a place, and then move.
00:44:39Yeah, we started looking at, um, like, bigger places, because obviously, like, I need more room.
00:44:44A bigger home.
00:44:45In other words, she's saying Scotch places, you know, it's good for one man.
00:44:50It's just a bachelor's pad.
00:44:51It's just a bachelor's pad.
00:44:51It's just a bachelor's pad.
00:44:52Like, as soon as the experiment ends, she's going to move to Queensland.
00:44:57You shouldn't just rush things too quickly.
00:45:00They haven't even told each other that they love each other yet.
00:45:03I feel like they should be knocking that off before they make, you know, the big move in together.
00:45:10But it's just more for us now, the timing.
00:45:12Yeah.
00:45:13I want to go back a few times and then look at places and decide, like, what date we move.
00:45:18But she wants to do it before the end of the year.
00:45:21It felt like a lot of pressure.
00:45:24No, she'll go somewhere like that.
00:45:25We plan, like, because her daughter needs to be enrolled to a school.
00:45:28Yeah.
00:45:28Well, she's going on school holidays.
00:45:30Yeah.
00:45:30We'll have the time to, like, move and get a new school organised and all that.
00:45:34Yeah.
00:45:35Yeah.
00:45:36I felt the pressure and I'm not even in the relationship.
00:45:39I said, like, I wanted to have, like, one or two more kids.
00:45:43Um, like, have a big house, have this certain car, like...
00:45:46He might be happy discussing it all, but I think behind the scenes and when we question him one-on
00:45:51-one about this,
00:45:52this is when we really will be getting the true colours.
00:45:55Yeah.
00:45:56Yeah.
00:45:56So...
00:46:01Next...
00:46:01I feel like I see you being pressured.
00:46:05I wasn't seeing 100% real out there.
00:46:16Well, how much longer does it go for?
00:46:17Three weeks, I think.
00:46:18On the Gold Coast, Gia is getting to know Scott's childhood friend, Jackson, and partner, Bianca.
00:46:26After that, we, like, separate and we deliberate our decision if we're going to, like, stay together outside.
00:46:31Downstairs, Scott is debriefing with Matt and Paige.
00:46:36All right, Scotty, so, being your friend, knowing you so well, I feel like I see you being pressured.
00:46:44I feel like I wasn't seeing 100% real out there.
00:46:49Well, this is the thing.
00:46:51When we have our really good moments, that makes me feel like I'm falling in love with her.
00:46:56But then, when we have tough situations or arguments, that pulls me back.
00:47:04There was nothing in my house, but there was a pink neck pillow.
00:47:08Yeah, travel pillow.
00:47:09Yeah.
00:47:10What's that?
00:47:10Who's that from?
00:47:12It's pretty much saying, like, who's this from?
00:47:14Like, there's another girl that's given it to me.
00:47:16Has any other girl worn it around their neck?
00:47:18No.
00:47:22Little things like that makes me feel like she doesn't trust me.
00:47:25It's all these little hurdles.
00:47:26Like, it's just a pillow at the end of the day.
00:47:28And if that's a little small subject that could affect someone, what else out there could trigger her?
00:47:33So, right now, I feel so much for her because we're so good and strong.
00:47:37But then, as soon as we hit a bump like that, it retracts me.
00:47:41I can't.
00:47:42I just...
00:47:42This is what's so bad about me.
00:47:44Things happen probably once a week, and I'm like, I forget about it.
00:47:48Some of the behaviour throughout this experiment, the drama, the fighting, I don't like that stuff.
00:47:52Yeah.
00:47:53Did she get a little bit into it?
00:47:56Oh, 100%.
00:47:58Don't gaslight me.
00:47:59Watch your mouth, girl.
00:48:00I'm not watching...
00:48:00Watch your mouth.
00:48:01I'm being honest.
00:48:01Watch your...
00:48:02Don't lie about me.
00:48:02Be accountable.
00:48:05Absolutely not.
00:48:06You're not going to gaslight a woman right now.
00:48:08You know what you said.
00:48:09Why the hell would I make you...
00:48:10Gia, Gia, Gia.
00:48:11Stop.
00:48:11I'm talking.
00:48:14Because you're a mean girl, and all you do is go around and talk to you about everything.
00:48:18Mean girl!
00:48:23I showed screenshots to a girlfriend who sued me, like...
00:48:30So Alessandra said something along the lines of, you know, Scott, do you think this is something
00:48:34you could put up with outside the experiment?
00:48:35I said, no, I wouldn't tolerate it.
00:48:36Which is true, because she has been in a lot of drama.
00:48:41Can I put up with this outside the experiment?
00:48:43Yeah.
00:48:43Is she like this outside the experiment?
00:48:45I don't know.
00:48:48Where I'm like, ****, like, is this normal?
00:48:50Yeah.
00:48:51I don't...
00:48:51I get so confused.
00:48:54Because I have so much hope, because I see so much good in her.
00:48:57I want Scottie to, like, really think about, is this going to actually work for him?
00:49:05Scottie doesn't get involved in that kind of drama.
00:49:08He doesn't...
00:49:09You know, his life is just so...
00:49:10He's a crazy guy.
00:49:13You know, I feel like you're in two minds.
00:49:14When it's good, you're very happy.
00:49:16But then when it's bad, like, that is something that you would run away from in the real world.
00:49:22That's my concern.
00:49:24That's why I don't understand why you need to rush when you get out, because...
00:49:27I don't want to rush.
00:49:29Yeah.
00:49:31She wants to move within the month.
00:49:33And I don't want to do that, but I'm trying to make her feel secure.
00:49:35Like, because if I say to her I want longer, she thinks I'm leading her on, but I'm not.
00:49:39Yeah, what I heard out there is that she thinks that she's moving up.
00:49:42Four-bedroom house, school, key, boom.
00:49:45You need to be more honest with yourself.
00:49:47I can see it out there.
00:49:48I see you being pressured.
00:49:50If this is everything right now, do I think they would work outside the experiment?
00:49:55No, because I know Scottie so well to know that he would go running for the hills.
00:50:03Gia's giving excuses that the experiment is what's setting her off all the time.
00:50:08And once we're in our four-bedroom house and everything's all running perfect, it's all
00:50:13going to be a happy ending, but I still think there'll be external triggers that they'll
00:50:17have to navigate.
00:50:19Like, so you're scared to say, hey, I don't want to move so quickly?
00:50:22Like, are you scared about her reaction?
00:50:24Pretty much.
00:50:27And that's when I feel like I want eggshells.
00:50:30Like, you need to be able to voice your concerns.
00:50:32How is a relationship going to work on the outside if you're in an experiment right now
00:50:35and you can't even voice how you feel?
00:50:38You know, I have these doubts and concerns, and right now I can't be 100% certain.
00:50:43There's a lot of things I want to talk about with her privately.
00:50:47I just wanted to be able to talk about anything, not feel uncomfortable, and not Gia feel like
00:50:53it's going to be an argument.
00:50:56It's just a lot for me to process.
00:50:59Like, moving forward, what do you guys think I should personally do?
00:51:04Paige?
00:51:04I just, you're up there telling me that you guys are great, but then down here you're
00:51:08saying, well, actually, like, you know, once a week I'm having issues.
00:51:11To be honest, don't worry about working on eggshells.
00:51:17There's so many things I need to address, just overlook our relationship in general and
00:51:23our behaviours, how we interact, how we communicate.
00:51:26There's so many things we need to get through before I can make a final decision, because
00:51:30I'm not 100% there yet.
00:51:32I feel like you do have feelings and there are good times and you do feel like you're falling,
00:51:38but then there's the other side and I just feel like, yeah, you're turning a blind eye to
00:51:44everything else right now.
00:51:53As the sun sets on another day of homestays...
00:51:57How does it feel having a girl in your house?
00:52:00It feels quite juicy.
00:52:02Juicy!
00:52:03Our couples are settling in for the night.
00:52:16And on the central coast of New South Wales, Rachel and Stephen tuck into bed.
00:52:21You've got a sleepy face.
00:52:23Sleepy face?
00:52:23You've got a sleepy face.
00:52:25But not before saying goodnight...
00:52:27Let's call it a night, shall we?
00:52:29Yeah, let's get some sleep.
00:52:30Right.
00:52:31To mum.
00:52:33I'm going to bed.
00:52:34I hope you enjoyed dinner.
00:52:36So have a good night and we'll see you tomorrow morning.
00:52:37Have a good night.
00:52:39Goodnight.
00:52:42Alright, that night.
00:52:43I think so.
00:52:45Alright.
00:52:47Alrighty.
00:52:49Not as big as our bed in there.
00:52:51I know, this is a lot smaller than what we're used to, mate.
00:52:56Close quarters around here.
00:52:57What's that touching me?
00:53:06With homestays drawing to a close...
00:53:10It's been a whirlwind of emotions.
00:53:13Stella and Philip are heading to lunch.
00:53:15After some difficult conversations yesterday,
00:53:18where Philip expressed his 75% assurance in the relationship.
00:53:24Jo asked, out of 100, how do you feel?
00:53:27Philip said 75%.
00:53:29I said 100%.
00:53:31And, like, for me, I really need to stop my brain going into the overdrive.
00:53:35I really do.
00:53:36But it doesn't feel resolved, if that makes sense.
00:53:40Like, yeah.
00:53:43Yeah.
00:53:48Jo asked, obviously, you know, a very hard question.
00:53:52You know, where...
00:53:54Out of 100, how certain you feel?
00:53:57And, you know, I said, yes, I do see the future.
00:54:00I'm very thankful for Jo that he asked that question,
00:54:02because I would have never dared to ask it directly like that.
00:54:08So, these are the, you know, the difficult parts.
00:54:12Not having...
00:54:15Certainty.
00:54:16Certainty.
00:54:16Certainty.
00:54:17Yeah.
00:54:19It's not a rejection.
00:54:21No, of course.
00:54:22Yeah, it definitely wasn't a rejection.
00:54:24I'm feeling it as much as you are.
00:54:27There's a few moving parts.
00:54:28That's all it is.
00:54:31The big ticket items are good.
00:54:34Like, we love each other.
00:54:36Like, we've got good respect.
00:54:37Like, there's good potential for a future, you know?
00:54:41So, 100% committed, right?
00:54:4475% sure how it's all going to work, the nuts and bolts.
00:54:48Stella's definitely the right person for me.
00:54:50I just hate it when I don't have anything sorted,
00:54:53how it's going to work, and all that kind of stuff
00:54:55that's yet to be sorted.
00:54:57Like, I've got everything that I want in a partner.
00:55:01I'm just a realist here,
00:55:02and I just think through logistics and stuff like that.
00:55:08There's obviously living arrangements,
00:55:10how we're going to go moving forward,
00:55:12how I'm going to be working here,
00:55:14what I'll do for work in the meantime,
00:55:16all that kind of stuff.
00:55:17That's kind of...
00:55:18That was my all-round out of 100.
00:55:20You've always told me, like,
00:55:22don't come here to Sydney for me,
00:55:24and I'm just like, well...
00:55:27Deal with that.
00:55:30I'm open to moving now.
00:55:32Yes, I can see myself here.
00:55:34She told me that she's already 100 out of 100, like, in this,
00:55:38like, ready to go.
00:55:39So, like, she's ready to go.
00:55:41So now it's just kind of, I need to sort my shit out.
00:55:44You as a person?
00:55:45Yeah, it's like, you know, pretty much flawless.
00:55:51Oh, I almost cried.
00:55:54I got what I needed,
00:55:55but I got my reassurances.
00:55:57Just let me lead sometimes.
00:55:59Just let me lead, you know?
00:56:01Like, I needed for him to put the plans in motion,
00:56:05what he's going to do after the experiment.
00:56:07This is...
00:56:08This is it, like...
00:56:10He's shown up for me over and over again.
00:56:14And it's a successful end of the homestays.
00:56:20Yeah, I can cry now.
00:56:23We are coming out stronger than we came in.
00:56:29Coming up...
00:56:30Well, do you even trust me?
00:56:32Scott finds his voice.
00:56:35Okay, so, but do you put yourself in my shoes?
00:56:39I feel like sometimes I'm walking on eggshells.
00:56:41I feel like you might get defensive and then...
00:56:44No, no, no, what I'm saying is, like...
00:56:45I didn't know you wanted to argue today.
00:56:55On the central coast of New South Wales,
00:56:58for Stephen,
00:57:00Homestays has helped him envision a future
00:57:02with Rachel outside the experiment.
00:57:05This is nuts.
00:57:07And has decided to take her on a special date
00:57:09to share exactly how he feels.
00:57:13Yeah, that's good stuff.
00:57:14So, I thought I would bring out Rachel
00:57:18to the local venue
00:57:20and would have a little bit of a lunch,
00:57:23a bit of a drink,
00:57:23and maybe verbalise my emotions
00:57:26towards Rachel a little bit more.
00:57:28Cheers.
00:57:30Oh, ding.
00:57:31It's pretty hard to speak about my feelings.
00:57:34Hard for me to be vulnerable.
00:57:36It stresses me out.
00:57:38I do adore Rachel.
00:57:40I do want her to know that.
00:57:42Can you believe it, last day of homestay?
00:57:45It goes quick, eh?
00:57:46It really does.
00:57:48It really does.
00:57:48It's even crazier that, you know,
00:57:50it only felt like yesterday
00:57:51that we were getting married.
00:57:53On that boat,
00:57:55literally felt like the floor was moving
00:57:56and turned around
00:57:58and I met you for the first time.
00:58:01Under the word I like you,
00:58:03I've got so many reasons why I like Rachel.
00:58:05So, today's a day to express those feelings to her.
00:58:09I may not spell it out for you verbally,
00:58:14but just seeing you yesterday on the boat,
00:58:18having a go, casting the rod,
00:58:20for me what I see is a wife outside the experiment.
00:58:26Thank you, and I'm really happy how homestays went.
00:58:29And speaking about feelings,
00:58:32I like where this relationship is going
00:58:35and I like you.
00:58:37And if a kid's going in the right direction,
00:58:39I can see myself falling in love with you one day.
00:58:44Um, me being vulnerable here.
00:58:47You're making me cry.
00:58:50So...
00:58:53I'm feeling so good.
00:58:57What better than to have your man
00:58:59tell you that he likes you a couple of times?
00:59:01He's reassuring you about where his feelings are.
00:59:05It was beautiful.
00:59:07The way that we interact,
00:59:09the way that we are together now
00:59:11versus the start line,
00:59:13so different.
00:59:17But I really appreciate you verbalising
00:59:19and reassuring me that, you know,
00:59:22like, yeah,
00:59:23maybe we are a little bit more on par than what I think.
00:59:26Yeah.
00:59:27Makes me really happy.
00:59:29And I've got to stress that one to you.
00:59:31And I sort of need to reassure that
00:59:33and spell it out for you.
00:59:34I do like you,
00:59:35and I have caught up
00:59:37in my feelings for you.
00:59:40Nice.
00:59:45This is amazing.
00:59:46Like, I just...
00:59:47It really reaffirms
00:59:49that I'm not out here by myself.
00:59:51Like, the feelings are real.
00:59:52The feelings are neutral.
00:59:53Cool?
00:59:54Mm-hmm.
00:59:57We're leaving here stronger.
00:59:59It is making me really excited
01:00:01about moving to Sydney
01:00:03and being a part of this life.
01:00:05And that's exactly where
01:00:07I wanted Steven and I to be.
01:00:11Home says it's been great.
01:00:13She's big.
01:00:13She is.
01:00:16Holy shit, this is real.
01:00:29So, last night of homestays,
01:00:31do you think it was successful?
01:00:33Did you think it would go this way
01:00:35or are you surprised?
01:00:38Um...
01:00:39Armed with feedback from his friends,
01:00:41Scott wants to address his concerns with Jaya
01:00:44about life together after the experiment.
01:00:49I need to be 100% certain before final vows,
01:00:52and I feel like I want to be able to communicate 100%,
01:00:55be open with my feelings
01:00:57without feeling like I'm on eggshells.
01:01:00I mean, there's a couple little things
01:01:01I think we still need to address
01:01:03and for me to think about
01:01:04within this experiment
01:01:05and outside this experiment
01:01:06for us to be 100%.
01:01:09Oh, like...
01:01:10Yeah, just obviously we had a rough week and stuff.
01:01:13So I didn't know how it was going to go.
01:01:15I didn't know if you didn't want to be here,
01:01:17but, like...
01:01:18OK.
01:01:19We all have our moments
01:01:20we're human beings, like...
01:01:23I just want you to, like, get that.
01:01:25That's all.
01:01:26Well, sometimes it is difficult
01:01:27to have conversations with Jaya
01:01:29because I think sometimes
01:01:31Jaya can still repel
01:01:33and get defensive
01:01:35when I'm just trying to talk
01:01:36about a subject.
01:01:38My biggest question to you,
01:01:40like, I know we, like, trust women,
01:01:41but sometimes I feel like,
01:01:43do you, like, fully 100% trust me?
01:01:49With what?
01:01:49In what way?
01:01:52Every way.
01:01:55With...
01:01:56I don't understand, like...
01:01:57Do you trust me?
01:01:57Like, do you trust my words?
01:01:59Do you trust me as a person?
01:02:01Do you trust me 100%?
01:02:04Say, for example,
01:02:06say the neck pillow.
01:02:08When I get the response of, like,
01:02:09whose is that?
01:02:11The way you ask that,
01:02:13it's like, well, do you even trust me?
01:02:16But then...
01:02:17But do you put yourself in my shoes
01:02:18and see how it may look
01:02:19from an outsider coming into your home
01:02:21when you said you've not had a woman
01:02:22in your house for years,
01:02:24in this house ever,
01:02:25and then I see a woman thing?
01:02:27Do you see how,
01:02:28from my point of view,
01:02:29how it could look like it?
01:02:30Yeah, I know.
01:02:32But...
01:02:33Like, I don't know, I just...
01:02:35Like, it's not like,
01:02:36oh, my God, I went looking,
01:02:37but it was just there
01:02:38when I turned the corner
01:02:39in the closet.
01:02:39Yeah, I know.
01:02:39It's not like I opened a drawer
01:02:40and was like, oh, my God,
01:02:41what's in his house?
01:02:43From my point of view,
01:02:45like, it looked a certain way.
01:02:51I feel like sometimes
01:02:52I'm walking on eggshells
01:02:53because I feel like
01:02:53if I want to bring up something,
01:02:55I feel like you might
01:02:56misinterpret it the wrong way.
01:02:59Get defensive and then...
01:03:00Hey, Scott.
01:03:01No, no, what I'm saying is, like...
01:03:02I didn't know you wanted
01:03:02to argue today.
01:03:17I feel like sometimes
01:03:18I'm walking on eggshells
01:03:19because I feel like
01:03:19if I want to bring up something,
01:03:21I feel like you might
01:03:22misinterpret it the wrong way.
01:03:25Get defensive and then...
01:03:26Do you know what I mean?
01:03:26Oh, my God.
01:03:27No, no, no, what I'm saying is, like...
01:03:28I didn't know you wanted
01:03:29to argue today.
01:03:33Walking a bit on eggshells.
01:03:35I don't really know
01:03:36what that was about.
01:03:39I wish you told me
01:03:40that you felt like
01:03:40you were on eggshells
01:03:41because I had no idea.
01:03:44I know you love to focus
01:03:45on the positives all the time
01:03:46and so do I,
01:03:47but in life,
01:03:48it's not always positive.
01:03:49100%.
01:03:49There's going to be moments
01:03:50where I might lose my shit.
01:03:52Like, there's going to be moments
01:03:53where I am a bit fiery
01:03:55about something.
01:03:56Like, do you accept
01:03:56that that's me as a whole?
01:03:58Like...
01:04:00I'm very self-aware.
01:04:01I would have listened
01:04:01and I would have been apologetic
01:04:03if I needed to be.
01:04:03I don't know why you feel
01:04:05unsafe to, like,
01:04:06say what you want to say.
01:04:10But even, like,
01:04:11trusting me as a person
01:04:13and marking my word,
01:04:14like,
01:04:15do you trust me 100%?
01:04:17That's all.
01:04:19No, I trust you,
01:04:20but can I commit
01:04:22to moving and everything
01:04:22if you never feel, like,
01:04:25you know,
01:04:25that you love me?
01:04:29Where I'm at,
01:04:30emotionally moving forward,
01:04:31like, I'm just...
01:04:32Obviously, I'm falling
01:04:33for you every day
01:04:34and I feel like
01:04:36we're on that path.
01:04:38Yeah, we've been
01:04:39on that path for a while.
01:04:40So, he's still falling.
01:04:42When's he going to hit the floor?
01:04:42I don't know.
01:04:43He's been falling for a while.
01:04:45Like, how far is the sky?
01:04:48The things that I've been
01:04:49concerned that I need
01:04:50to address is the pressure,
01:04:51the love, the...
01:04:52Yeah, yeah.
01:04:52That's the stuff
01:04:53that I've just been talking about
01:04:56this whole end
01:04:57of this experiment.
01:05:01You know me,
01:05:02I don't like to push things.
01:05:03I don't like to rush things.
01:05:04I don't like pressure.
01:05:04I like to go with the flow.
01:05:06Like, I don't like being pushed
01:05:08or rushed
01:05:08or setting a time,
01:05:10but we do have
01:05:11our rough time,
01:05:12like,
01:05:12when to do it all.
01:05:16I need to feel
01:05:17safe and secure enough
01:05:18in this relationship
01:05:19and I need to feel
01:05:20that he is feeling
01:05:21the same way
01:05:22or I don't think
01:05:24I could
01:05:25continue this on.
01:05:29that last step
01:05:30of all in
01:05:32being in love.
01:05:35I'm not there yet.
01:05:39I just want to let
01:05:40my own feelings
01:05:41do its thing
01:05:42and my feelings
01:05:43aren't being heard.
01:05:44Like,
01:05:45that's what
01:05:46affects me
01:05:47and pushes me back.
01:05:58tomorrow night.
01:05:59Yay!
01:06:00So good.
01:06:01Homestays continues.
01:06:03Welcome home!
01:06:04You should be able
01:06:05to say something nice
01:06:06and be genuine about it.
01:06:07You're abusing me
01:06:08over a joke.
01:06:09Pisses me off.
01:06:11What comment
01:06:11has Danny made
01:06:12that leaves Bec
01:06:13seeing red?
01:06:14I'm done.
01:06:16In Adelaide,
01:06:17the biological clock
01:06:18is ticking.
01:06:19You want to have
01:06:20a family
01:06:20and you don't
01:06:22want to keep
01:06:23putting it off.

01:06:26from her own
01:06:27life experience.

01:06:49to accept full
01:06:50responsibility
