00:00:00Previously...
00:00:01I want to go put my dad hat on and I would like to leave.
00:00:04Chris wanted to leave the experiment.
00:00:07Stay.
00:00:07Before the experts gave some sound advice for the pair to turn it around.
00:00:12With a weenus can come change.
00:00:15Treat each other in a friendly way.
00:00:18And then...
00:00:19All around Australia...
00:00:22Homestays Week saw our couples take what they've learnt in the experiment into the outside world.
00:00:29Passenger Princess!
00:00:31A successful visit to his hometown saw Stephen give Rachel reassurance for their future.
00:00:37I have caught up in my feelings for you.
00:00:39I can see myself falling in love with you one day.
00:00:42It really reaffirms the feelings are real, the feelings are neutral.
00:00:47You've always told me, like, don't come here to Sydney for me.
00:00:51Well, deal with it.
00:00:53Philip confirmed he would move from Melbourne to live with Stella in Sydney.
00:00:57This is it, like...
00:00:59We are coming out stronger than we came in.
00:01:02It'd be better if that wasn't there.
00:01:04My house is way cleaner.
00:01:05I couldn't live here.
00:01:06It was a tense few days at Scott's home on the Gold Coast.
00:01:10What's that?
00:01:11Why is it pink?
00:01:12Is it your ex?
00:01:13It's not pink.
00:01:14Makes me feel like she doesn't trust me.
00:01:15You're in an experiment right now and you can't even voice how you feel.
00:01:18Scott finally asked Gia the hard questions about their relationship.
00:01:22Do you, like, fully 100% trust me?
00:01:25Do you know what I mean?
00:01:26Yeah, it's God.
00:01:26No, no, no, no.
00:01:27What I'm saying is, like...
00:01:28I didn't know you wanted to argue today.
00:01:32Tonight...
00:01:32Yay!
00:01:33So good.
00:01:33...homestays continues.
00:01:35Welcome home!
00:01:37You should be able to say something nice and be genuine about it.
00:01:40You're abusing me over a joke.
00:01:42Pisses me off.
00:01:43What comment has Danny made that leaves Bec seeing red?
00:01:47I'm done.
00:01:48In Adelaide...
00:01:49The biological clock is ticking.
00:01:52You want to have a family and you don't want to keep putting it off.
00:01:57Alyssa's mum shares words of wisdom from her own life experience.
00:02:01It's really stressful now.
00:02:03It's a lot online.
00:02:04Alyssa is spiralling.
00:02:10Could this be the most awkward homestay ever?
00:02:19As things for Chris and Sam go from bad...
00:02:22Do you accept full responsibility for your defensiveness and the aggression I felt from you last week?
00:02:26..to worse?
00:02:31Um...
00:02:39With destinations far and wide, our remaining couples are on their way to homestays,
00:02:45where they will road test life together outside the experiment.
00:02:49We're here!
00:02:51We are here!
00:02:52The homestays have always been an essential part of the Married at First Sight experiment.
00:02:57We've just landed. I'm so excited to show David around my hometown.
00:03:02As our couples get a taste of their partner's natural environment, questions will arise.
00:03:07This is their chance to get to those answers before they head to their final vows.
00:03:17Brisbane-based David and wife Alyssa are arriving in her hometown of Adelaide.
00:03:23I can't believe I'm falling here, babe.
00:03:26Oh!
00:03:26Look!
00:03:27And for the nurse and social media businesswoman,
00:03:30the return to home turf is being met with a very special greeting.
00:03:35Look! Look who it is! Look who it is!
00:03:36Look who it is!
00:03:36Oh my gosh!
00:03:38That is nuts!
00:03:40Look who it is!
00:03:41It's me!
00:03:42Wow!
00:03:42It's me!
00:03:43Yeah, well, the pressure of this homestay has just doubled.
00:03:48I didn't realise how big of a deal Alyssa was until I saw a massive poster with her face on
00:03:54it.
00:03:54I was stunned and I'm still trying to take it all in.
00:03:57Like, are we going to walk down the street and get mobbed by a group of teen girls wanting to
00:04:01get Alyssa's autograph?
00:04:03Like, I feel like I'm with a celebrity in Adelaide.
00:04:07This is where I live.
00:04:09Is that it?
00:04:09Yeah, this is it here.
00:04:11I am Queen Adelaide.
00:04:12I live a very busy life.
00:04:15From nursing to all my client meetings, campaigns, deliverables.
00:04:20Welcome home!
00:04:21Wow, look at this!
00:04:23I'm so excited to be able to bring my husband here.
00:04:26Okay, here's our bedroom.
00:04:27And for him to be able to get a taste of, you know, my life.
00:04:31Massive couch.
00:04:33I don't even know where to sit.
00:04:35It's bigger than our apartment in Sydney.
00:04:38Lots of room for extra kids.
00:04:42I'm excited to show you around.
00:04:44I'm excited to go around too.
00:04:47Tell me more about this huge billboard.
00:04:49I was literally stunned.
00:04:51I was like, is that my wife literally the face of Adelaide Airport?
00:04:54Yeah, do you know what?
00:04:55That was a campaign I did like three years ago with this big king-sized bed that we wheeled around
00:05:00on the tarmac and it was just me modelling on this bed.
00:05:02By plane.
00:05:04And it was just such a fun campaign.
00:05:06You know, that's only just one thing that I've done and, you know, a part of like, my career.
00:05:13Seeing that at the airport, it was just like a wild moment.
00:05:16But despite Alyssa's clear connection to her hometown, the couple has no plans to move here after the experiment.
00:05:25I know Alyssa is very close to her mom.
00:05:27She's got her family here.
00:05:29The businesses and everything she does.
00:05:31But me and Alyssa spoke during feedback week of living in Sydney for a few years before we ultimately moved
00:05:38to Adelaide to start a family.
00:05:40I am a big city boy, so I feel way better about the Sydney idea.
00:05:44I'm from Brisbane, so we kind of meet in the middle.
00:05:48But right now, our relationship is hanging on the fact that, you know, Alyssa ultimately wants to raise a family
00:05:55in Adelaide.
00:05:56And, you know, if I can't see myself being here, there's no point leaving everything I've built in Brisbane to
00:06:02go on this journey to Sydney and then to Adelaide.
00:06:06Yeah, you have to get on one knee.
00:06:08When they met at the altar...
00:06:10We're not doing the vows until, until I get down.
00:06:14Alyssa and David found themselves in an unexpected standoff.
00:06:18You know, I gotta, you know, we'll see.
00:06:21But after an intense battle of wills, it was David who caved to pressure to give his wife what she
00:06:28wanted.
00:06:31Are you nervous for the experiment to end, Bode?
00:06:34I mean, look, I definitely don't take it lightly.
00:06:38Now, the plan for the Brisbane-based groom to relocate first to Sydney, then to Adelaide to raise a family,
00:06:45is proving another uncomfortable test.
00:06:49Figuring out where to live, it's not easy.
00:06:52Brisbane is definitely not on the cards for Alyssa.
00:06:55She said no, you know, and I mean, it is a sacrifice.
00:06:59My family and my friends and everything I've built is in Queensland, you know.
00:07:06I hope that, yeah, you can see, potentially see yourself here, you know.
00:07:12And if you can't, then, yeah, that's just something that we're going to have to navigate.
00:07:16I don't know, I hope that you just enjoy it, because long term, you know, I just, I want to
00:07:22have a family.
00:07:22And that is, you know, I want to be back here with my mum.
00:07:27It is, it's a huge deal.
00:07:29If David can't fit his life within my life, like that's going to cause troubles.
00:07:39Also in Adelaide...
00:07:41Oh, oh God.
00:07:43I'm scared.
00:07:44You okay?
00:07:45..Bec and Danny's homestay is already facing its first major test,
00:07:50as the Melbourne-based husband prepares to meet his wife's other great love.
00:07:56You ready to meet Coco?
00:07:58Where is she?
00:07:59Everything I do in life is for Coco.
00:08:01She is my daughter, she's my child, she is the most important thing to me.
00:08:05So if they don't get along...
00:08:06She's right here.
00:08:08..that'll be a huge spanner in the works for me.
00:08:10I need them to love each other.
00:08:15Oh, look at me!
00:08:18Hello?
00:08:19How many are you?
00:08:20Hello?
00:08:21That's Daniel!
00:08:22You want to say hello to me?
00:08:23That's Daniel!
00:08:25Hello?
00:08:26Oh, you're gorgeous, aren't you?
00:08:29She's, she's trying to make them wine, though.
00:08:32Hello?
00:08:33Oh, is that kisses?
00:08:34Oh, that's very nice.
00:08:36Oh!
00:08:37Yay!
00:08:37That's very nice!
00:08:39Here we got him, here we got him!
00:08:40I've got a kiss.
00:08:41Oh!
00:08:42I'm not joking.
00:08:44She's just not like that with men, ever.
00:08:46Yeah, no.
00:08:47It's a really, really good start.
00:08:49Like, I could not have asked for it to go any better.
00:08:52Look at this place.
00:08:53This is my living room.
00:08:54Comfiest couch.
00:08:56Sit on a dinner couch.
00:08:57The comfiest couch in the world.
00:08:58It's such a good feeling, just to see the love that Danny has for Coco.
00:09:03Is that nice?
00:09:04This is my garden, boo.
00:09:06This is so nice.
00:09:07Now he will hopefully fall in love with the idea of what his life could look like here.
00:09:12This is my bedroom.
00:09:13She's the size of this room.
00:09:16This is a nice bedroom, isn't it?
00:09:19Feels good being in Bec's home.
00:09:22She just seems softer, more relaxed.
00:09:26Obviously, some of the experiment has been a bit of drama and stuff like that.
00:09:30We're seeing Bec in her own home.
00:09:31She's very peaceful.
00:09:33It's nice to see Bec like that.
00:09:35I like that I buy my bedsheets to match my dog's colour.
00:09:38The aesthetic of it.
00:09:41I really do want Danny to like Adelaide.
00:09:43She loves a chest rub, don't you?
00:09:45This really is the time where we're going to decide where we're going to live.
00:09:50After the experiment ends, Daniel's been really vocal in telling me that he wants to come and move here.
00:09:58Because my family is here, you know, I've got a big house and, you know, with the dog and stuff
00:10:04like that.
00:10:04Feel comfy here, boo?
00:10:06Yeah, I feel very relaxed.
00:10:08I can picture him being here.
00:10:10I can't picture my life without him now.
00:10:12It's really scary to say, to be honest with you, but I can't imagine a world where he and I
00:10:18aren't together.
00:10:20I told you I was going to go find you a daddy.
00:10:24Thanks for the kiss.
00:10:27As Homestays gets off to a positive start in Adelaide,
00:10:31Sam and Chris are heading to Chris's southern New South Wales farm.
00:10:40In silence.
00:10:53In the city, I run a very successful PT business.
00:10:56Are they my vows?
00:10:57I know, right?
00:10:58I know.
00:10:58In the beginning, Sam and Chris's uncanny compatibility set the course for steady growth in their relationship.
00:11:06You've just, like, made a decision on how this is going.
00:11:08No, actually, no.
00:11:10That's not true.
00:11:11But in the past week, a disagreement about future plans proved impossible to resolve.
00:11:18It wasn't the first time I've witnessed you shutting me down, but it's the first time that I've spoken up
00:11:22about it.
00:11:25I am genuinely sorry that I hurt your feelings.
00:11:29I did not want to put pressure on you.
00:11:31Why are you laughing?
00:11:31Because I asked you to do this this morning and you couldn't.
00:11:34No, I'm doing it again.
00:11:34I'm doing it right now.
00:11:37A communication style has contributed to the real crisis that you're in now.
00:11:43After an intense commitment ceremony, Chris came to an abrupt decision.
00:11:48I actually decided that I need and I want to go put my dad hat on and I would like
00:11:53to leave.
00:11:55Now, with both husbands required to stay in the experiment for one more week, their issues remain as unresolved as
00:12:04ever.
00:12:16Uh, yeah, like it's a bit awkward in the car.
00:12:37How are you feeling about going to the farm?
00:12:40I'm excited to see the animals.
00:12:41Yeah, cool.
00:12:42Yeah.
00:12:51This is the last way I thought we'd be going to homestays.
00:12:54I mean, Chris and I, you know, we had a pretty smooth sailing the first few weeks.
00:12:59And then all of a sudden we had one speed bump and a week later, he wrote leave.
00:13:05And having him show me that he's done with the experiment kind of was a kick in the guts.
00:13:12Have you reflected much on like what the experts said and stuff?
00:13:15Of course.
00:13:16Yeah.
00:13:16Yeah.
00:13:17Yeah.
00:13:17Nice.
00:13:26The energy between us is awkward.
00:13:31Obviously, I understand there was a lot of shit that went down last week.
00:13:34I've had to apologise five times in total after our first little fight.
00:13:38But that's okay.
00:13:39I'm still here in the experiment.
00:13:41I took it on the chin and I've realised that I need to make some growth.
00:13:45We had some fun the next couple of days.
00:13:50It's been a bit heavy, you know what I mean?
00:13:52But it's one of those things that is going to be a process.
00:13:56I need us to not dwell on the past.
00:14:00You know, I've been pummeled enough for it.
00:14:03Probably do need to have some tough conversations at some point.
00:14:07You know, it's just about everything the experts said.
00:14:10Mm-hmm.
00:14:11So, yeah, hopefully we can move forward through home stays and see if we can try and change
00:14:15the energy and go down a positive route.
00:14:18Yeah.
00:14:21And now having arrived at Chris's farm in the southern highlands of New South Wales,
00:14:27the energy is still anything but positive.
00:14:36The car ride was super awkward.
00:14:38I said to Sam that I just want to try and have some fun over the next couple of days.
00:14:46But he did mention that he wants to have some tough conversations about my couch session.
00:14:54So, yeah, it's not great.
00:15:04All right, I'll give you the tour.
00:15:06There's a bathroom in there.
00:15:09Nice.
00:15:13Yeah.
00:15:17Oh, look, I just...
00:15:19Chris and I aren't in the best space, obviously.
00:15:22And then this is the second room.
00:15:24Oh, yes, bump beds.
00:15:26Yeah, yeah.
00:15:27Do you feel like you're going to bump your head on that or is it going to be okay?
00:15:32I'll be fine.
00:15:36Yeah, it looks like we are not sharing a bed.
00:15:39You know, you could tell he didn't want to do that.
00:15:41The main room's in here.
00:15:42So, yeah, I'll be in the spare room.
00:15:45Yeah.
00:15:46Which is good.
00:15:49Nice.
00:15:50Yeah.
00:15:53Great.
00:15:53Yeah.
00:15:54I said in the car that I want to have some big conversations and he didn't seem down for the
00:16:00idea and was like, he just wanted to have fun this weekend.
00:16:04These flowers are for you.
00:16:05And a little welcome to the farm card.
00:16:08Wow.
00:16:09But then I saw some flowers and a thank you card sitting there.
00:16:12And I just had a glimmer of hope.
00:16:14This is why he hasn't said anything yet.
00:16:16He's written it all into this card.
00:16:19Because he told me he's reflected a lot over the last few days.
00:16:26But it just said, welcome to the farm, Sam.
00:16:33What do you want to do first?
00:16:38See that land over there?
00:16:39Yeah.
00:16:40That's where the cows usually are.
00:16:44Yeah.
00:16:45Look, Chris wrote leave.
00:16:46But I think he kind of wants to sweep it under the rug.
00:16:49That'll do.
00:16:50Whatever your plan.
00:16:50This is your place.
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52And I can't just float through this weekend and be like, everything's fine when it's not.
00:16:56I'll introduce you to the cows and the horses and then...
00:16:59Yeah, let's do that.
00:17:00Yeah, we can just go for a bit of an adventure.
00:17:01Cool.
00:17:02I need to see him be like, I did f*** up, Sam.
00:17:04And I need to see him, like, suck up to me a bit.
00:17:07Alrighty.
00:17:11Instead was like, anyway, come see my cows.
00:17:16Like...
00:17:23Jesus, the size of this place.
00:17:24Family?
00:17:26It's like a mansion in here.
00:17:28How are you?
00:17:29Good to see you.
00:17:30Good to see you.
00:17:31Good to see you.
00:17:31In Adelaide, Bec has brought husband Danny to meet Aunty Helena and cousin Danielle.
00:17:37Hello.
00:17:37Lovely to meet you.
00:17:38Lovely to meet you.
00:17:40You too.
00:17:40Champion, how are you, mate?
00:17:41How are you?
00:17:42You good?
00:17:42Along with Dad Lee for a family get-together over lunch.
00:17:46He's never met my cousin Danielle before.
00:17:48She's a little bit older than me, but we've grown up together.
00:17:51Isn't it?
00:17:51Thanks so much.
00:17:52There we go.
00:17:54We treat each other like sisters.
00:17:56Cheers, Danny.
00:17:57Cheers.
00:17:57Nice to meet you.
00:17:58You too.
00:17:59Cheers.
00:18:00Cheers, kids.
00:18:01It's one of the most crucial things for me that my family like, love, accept Danny.
00:18:07Let's sit down.
00:18:08But I know that Dad and Aunty Helena like him already.
00:18:12When Bec's family last met Danny, the relationship was in crisis over an allegation made by Gia.
00:18:21One of the other brides here said that she asked Danielle, what is your type?
00:18:26And he said, someone like you that looks like you.
00:18:29Oh.
00:18:30It didn't happen?
00:18:31Never happened.
00:18:32But after accepting Danny's word on the matter, Dad Lee came to his son-in-law's support over concerns about
00:18:39Bec's outbursts during the crisis.
00:18:41I did have a chat with Bec and say, you're swearing and things like that.
00:18:46I said, I feel it's a bad reflection of you.
00:18:50Remember that those words aren't necessary.
00:18:55Last time I saw my family, I said to Dad, I'm just not too sure if Danny's into me.
00:19:00Where's everyone sitting?
00:19:02I know Danny was worried about my behaviour.
00:19:04True.
00:19:04I'll sit there and you two sit there.
00:19:06You're the head of the table.
00:19:07But ever since that moment, we've just come leaps and bounds.
00:19:11We've sort of gone through so much together that I actually have zero worries or doubts in my mind at
00:19:17all now.
00:19:19So Danny, how do you feel about Adelaide?
00:19:22I actually really like Adelaide, to be honest.
00:19:24Yeah?
00:19:24Yeah, it's been nice so far.
00:19:26This is the first time I've ever been to Adelaide.
00:19:28It's only been, how long?
00:19:30Just over 24 hours?
00:19:31Yeah, just over 24 hours.
00:19:33But so far, so good.
00:19:34First time?
00:19:35First time, yeah.
00:19:36Never been?
00:19:36Never been to Adelaide before.
00:19:38Bec gave me a tour of the city and stuff, but I like Adelaide.
00:19:41Yeah, it's nice.
00:19:43Could you see yourself living here?
00:19:48I could, yeah.
00:19:49I'd say so, yeah.
00:19:52We've kind of talked about it, and Daniel says that because my family is here, and my friends are here
00:20:00and stuff, that it would make most sense for him to move here.
00:20:05Big change.
00:20:06Is it though?
00:20:07I don't know.
00:20:08All your friends in Melbourne?
00:20:10And I've got my mates, but I can always fly back.
00:20:12It's only, it's less, how long's the flight?
00:20:14Less than an hour.
00:20:15Less than an hour.
00:20:16Less than an hour.
00:20:17Less than an hour.
00:20:17It doesn't really sit well with me, like, imagine if I was to say to Bec, come to Melbourne, and
00:20:22she leaves her whole family and her life, where I've not got family in Melbourne.
00:20:27Yeah.
00:20:27Do you know what you mean?
00:20:29You do have family.
00:20:30They're here.
00:20:32Absolutely.
00:20:33He's definitely moving to Adelaide.
00:20:36Very important.
00:20:37We have a big family, and we have a great time.
00:20:40So there's no way she's moving to Melbourne.
00:20:42He's definitely moving here if they're going to work out.
00:20:45Because we've talked about long distance, and it's not really an option, is it?
00:20:49I'd never do long distance, to be honest with you.
00:20:52I don't see the point.
00:20:53No, I tend to agree.
00:20:55You know?
00:20:56Like, it's not really something I'd want to do.
00:20:59At the commitment ceremony, I told him I loved him.
00:21:04Right.
00:21:05Dad's dying.
00:21:06Right.
00:21:07Yeah, that's okay.
00:21:09And now he calls himself Black Caviar.
00:21:10Do you know why?
00:21:11No.
00:21:11Because every single woman he's ever been with has told him that they love him first,
00:21:16and that's like, Black Caviar never missed.
00:21:19Never lost a race.
00:21:20No, but it was...
00:21:2425 group one wins in a row.
00:21:26I love it.
00:21:26I love it.
00:21:28I love it.
00:21:29It's a nice horse though, isn't it?
00:21:30Yeah.
00:21:33And then?
00:21:35Danny doesn't love me back.
00:21:39Yeah, well, I'm not going to sit there and lie.
00:21:42I'm not in love with you back yet.
00:21:45You can't say to someone you love them if you don't.
00:21:48Yeah.
00:21:48I think that's very rude and not a good thing to do.
00:21:55Danny, let's go, boy.
00:21:57Come out here, son.
00:21:58Let's go.
00:22:00Here we go.
00:22:02Are we going for a drink, Lee?
00:22:03Come out, because it's not that far for me to fall.
00:22:06Yeah.
00:22:08Honestly, I'll be honest with you, I hope it works.
00:22:11She's a great girl.
00:22:12She's a good girl, yeah.
00:22:13Yeah, she's good.
00:22:13She's a bloody good wife, to be honest with you.
00:22:16She's a...
00:22:17She dopes on me.
00:22:18A couple of weeks ago, she's like, what's your favourite pie?
00:22:22I said, oh, I love a chicken and mushroom pie.
00:22:24The next day, she's made it.
00:22:25And, like, she dopes on me, like, almost...
00:22:28Sometimes it's almost too much, to be honest with you.
00:22:34You told Danny that you loved him.
00:22:38Oh, here we go, yeah.
00:22:39And Danny didn't say it back.
00:22:41Yes.
00:22:42How do you feel about that?
00:22:44I'm okay with it.
00:22:46We had a...
00:22:47I'm okay with it.
00:22:48I'm okay with it.
00:22:50He shows me that he loves me in so many different ways.
00:22:55They'll tell you that he asked me to be his girlfriend the other day.
00:22:58It's like, it was just that little level of security.
00:23:02Danny asking me to be his girlfriend, it's really important.
00:23:06Is it important to you or not?
00:23:08I'm not gonna lie, not that important.
00:23:10Because, like, in the experiment, it means you're really...
00:23:13Like, this is really, really serious.
00:23:16What inspired you to ask Beck that question?
00:23:19Uh, I'm trying to think.
00:23:23He is so attentive.
00:23:25All my previous partners have said I've been really hard to, like, live with and deal with.
00:23:30Not him.
00:23:31You know, sometimes you do get into the back of your mind, shit, is he genuine?
00:23:35Not anymore.
00:23:36I don't think that anymore.
00:23:38No.
00:23:38But I was.
00:23:39It's very hard to go into this and think, is he genuine?
00:23:44Yeah.
00:23:44But I know the type of person he is and he would not be here right now if he wasn't.
00:23:52Look, I think she probably likes him more.
00:23:57But he's charismatic, he's warm, he likes to have a good time.
00:24:01We're a family of, you know, fun, warmth and closeness.
00:24:06He seems to bring all those elements.
00:24:08We like him, right?
00:24:10Yeah.
00:24:10He seems lovely.
00:24:12It's the first time I've met him and I really like him.
00:24:14Of course Danny's charmed that he's chucked on his maroon dinner jacket and popped his black caviar brooch on and
00:24:23he's on his way.
00:24:24I would love him and his friends to be in our family.
00:24:27I would too.
00:24:29He's one of them already.
00:24:30Like, I didn't think that I could feel stronger but now it's like, oh no, like, I really, really, really,
00:24:39really want this.
00:24:40And I think he wants it too.
00:24:41I don't know, I just feel like this is it.
00:24:50Also in Adelaide, Alyssa is bringing David to mum Belinda's and the home where she grew up.
00:24:56Hello.
00:24:57Hello.
00:25:01Despite being close, it's the first time Belinda's seen Alyssa since the wedding.
00:25:05Good to see you.
00:25:06Nice to see you.
00:25:07Hi Belinda, good to see you again.
00:25:10Thank you for having me at your home.
00:25:12I'm looking forward to having an opportunity to speak to Alyssa and David about how their relationship is going and
00:25:19what tomorrow might look like.
00:25:22Oh babe, do you want to get the platter?
00:25:23Yeah, of course.
00:25:24Because it's all coming into an end.
00:25:26And I would be very disappointed to not have my daughter here.
00:25:32Honestly, I'm so like, glad we can catch up again because on the wedding day, we didn't get a chance
00:25:38to talk.
00:25:38Yeah.
00:25:39The wedding.
00:25:40Oh my gosh.
00:25:42Couldn't believe that you both were at a standoff.
00:25:46I'm a shit stirrer.
00:25:48I'm just reckless.
00:25:50Couldn't believe she was digging her heels in and that you were digging your heels in.
00:25:55What was going through your mind?
00:25:57Oh, honestly, when she told me to get down on the knee, I didn't want to do it because I
00:26:01didn't want to show her that I was a pushover on the first day.
00:26:04Yeah.
00:26:05So yeah, I was like, no, surely she's joking.
00:26:07And then I looked at her and she wasn't flinching.
00:26:09No, she, I couldn't believe it.
00:26:11I love her dearly, but she can be too much for me.
00:26:16I'm happy to admit that I'm now my husband's pain in the ass.
00:26:20You know, he's having to put up with me now.
00:26:24It's actually amazing to be here.
00:26:28I get a good vibe from Alyssa's mum, which is very important to me because family is important.
00:26:33Is she too much?
00:26:34I don't think she is too much.
00:26:36I think she's, for me, it feels like someone that, you know, that I can see so much potential in.
00:26:43You know, I know she, she has a hard days, but that's why I've got two hands so I can
00:26:48carry her on those days.
00:26:50And I feel like the fact that we're still here, it just, it's a testimony to the connection we had.
00:26:55We have been through a lot.
00:26:56But yeah, I am excited for the future, but it's scary too.
00:27:00I am 33 years old.
00:27:02Obviously I want to settle down in Adelaide, but what are your thoughts about me moving to Sydney just for
00:27:08a couple of years?
00:27:13I would hate that.
00:27:17There you go, you asked, I said.
00:27:23Yes, I have concerns about having a plan to move for a year or two.
00:27:32You know, that has its risks.
00:27:35I worry about the fact that, you know, you want to have a family and you don't want to keep
00:27:42putting it off.
00:27:44You know, the goal is to find a forever partner and one day have a family.
00:27:52Unfortunately, the biological clock is ticking and we can't wait forever.
00:27:59A couple of years, you can say that just a couple of years, the next thing you know, it's five.
00:28:05I like David.
00:28:07He seems really nice.
00:28:08He's very respectful, but we don't want to be wasting time.
00:28:11We don't want to be playing games because that could possibly take away the opportunities you'll have of having a
00:28:22family one day.
00:28:27Coming up.
00:28:28You know, people sometimes take 10 years to fall pregnant.
00:28:31That's the truth.
00:28:32Yeah, I know.
00:28:32Alyssa's mum doubles down.
00:28:34I just feel torn and pulled and pushed.
00:28:37And Alyssa finds herself spiralling.
00:28:40It's really stressful.
00:28:41I'm feeling so overwhelmed right now.
00:28:45It's all just hit me.
00:28:55That doesn't make sense to me.
00:28:57It does.
00:28:58In Adelaide, Belinda has taken Alyssa aside for a one-on-one after hearing about her daughter's plan to move
00:29:04to Sydney and delay settling in her hometown to raise a family.
00:29:09Now, people sometimes take 10 years to fall pregnant.
00:29:12That's the truth.
00:29:13Yeah, I know.
00:29:14But, well, I don't know that yet.
00:29:15I've never tried.
00:29:15That's right.
00:29:16But you don't know that.
00:29:18So you don't have a couple of years to just take it easy and see how you go.
00:29:23I just see that year or two turning into five years or 10.
00:29:29Because I've seen it.
00:29:30I've seen it before.
00:29:32Not with Alyssa, but I've seen it with other people.
00:29:35You know, time goes quickly for us all.
00:29:39A couple of years?
00:29:40A couple of years.
00:29:41I think you've got a couple of years to wait.
00:29:44She's very honest.
00:29:45She's down the line.
00:29:46Like, she's very direct.
00:29:47She's like me in a lot of ways.
00:29:49And she knows me and my core.
00:29:53And also, if you start somewhere else for a little while, you could lose what you have
00:29:57here.
00:29:58And that is the catch-22.
00:30:00This is where I'm at.
00:30:01And then I'm having a mini mental breakdown, thinking this is getting really real.
00:30:04And there's a lot on the line.
00:30:06Like, I know there's, I just feel torn and pulled and pushed.
00:30:10Ultimately, I want to start a family here.
00:30:12So, this, it's a lot.
00:30:16There's just, I'm feeling so overwhelmed right now.
00:30:19And because it's getting so close to the end, it's all just hit me.
00:30:26He's so calm and so kind.
00:30:29You know, so calm and so kind.
00:30:31They're pretty good attributes.
00:30:32I know.
00:30:33And like, as much as I've been maybe a little bit of a pain in the arse, like, I can't
00:30:36shake
00:30:37him off.
00:30:38He just, he's like, I know that I'm good for you.
00:30:42And he stands by me and I'm like, ugh.
00:30:46I am definitely getting drunk feelings towards him.
00:30:48Like, I'm definitely falling for David.
00:30:50Like, falling in love with this person.
00:30:52And I might have to pack up, move to Sydney, and make that sacrifice.
00:31:03It's really stressful now on the line.
00:31:08Okay.
00:31:27Yeah, this is the cows.
00:31:39In the southern highlands of New South Wales, following an underwhelming welcome to the
00:31:46farm, the vibe between Sam and Chris is as awkward as ever.
00:32:08Come on.
00:32:10Come on.
00:32:12Come on, guys.
00:32:13Come on.
00:32:18Yeah, it's not what I wanted.
00:32:19You know, I didn't want to come out to the farm and have this awkward energy.
00:32:25So how are you liking the farm so far?
00:32:27Yeah, it's a beautiful place.
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:29Beautiful part of the world.
00:32:31Stunning.
00:32:32Hey.
00:32:37I've also got, like, added pressure from outside the experiment.
00:32:40Like, the kids are coming and, you know, the farm.
00:32:42Yeah, it's very heavy.
00:32:44But, um, I want to take accountability and I want to make growth.
00:32:53So, that's what I'm doing.
00:32:58I know we had a rough week last week, so I just wanted to make sure that you feel at
00:33:02home
00:33:03as much as you can and, you know.
00:33:07I think we're a long way from you feeling at home here.
00:33:12I can't just float through this and be like, everything's fine.
00:33:15I'm pretty hurt.
00:33:17Like, last week, like, seeing your right leg so quickly, like, it's going to take a lot to come back
00:33:26from that.
00:33:26Um, yeah, it's, like, left me in a really, really tough place and it really sucks because coming out of
00:33:33the retreat,
00:33:34I thought we were in an awesome place.
00:33:36Yeah.
00:33:37Well, you said you've done some reflecting and stuff.
00:33:40What have you worked out?
00:33:43I mean, I heard the experts loud and clear and I've taken on board what they've said.
00:33:49Yeah, I realised that I probably could have been a bit calmer and not got as defensive and they did
00:33:55hold a mirror up in my face.
00:33:57And they actually made me realise as well, like, I've got a lot of work to do.
00:34:04And my reservation is whether, you know, whether it is going to be too much pressure for me.
00:34:11But I just, I just try to, without putting too much pressure on it, I just want to try and
00:34:16see if you and I can clear the energy over the next couple of days.
00:34:18I'm working as hard as I can to make you feel welcome.
00:34:21I mean, I'm trying my best.
00:34:23Yeah, awesome.
00:34:23That's awesome to hear.
00:34:26I'm proud of you.
00:34:27Yeah, thanks.
00:34:28Like, well done.
00:34:29Thank you.
00:34:30Yeah, it was really nice to see Chris actually has really had some time to reflect and really think about
00:34:35what the experts said and is starting to take that on board, which is great.
00:34:40I actually can be heard by Chris.
00:34:42And he does have the ability to listen and to take in and look at another person's perspective because I
00:34:50hadn't seen that side of him until now.
00:34:54Should we have a hug through the horses?
00:34:55We should shake that out.
00:34:56Yeah.
00:34:57Groove hug.
00:34:59That was really amazing.
00:35:01Sam and I just had a little cute little therapy moment.
00:35:04And, you know, I could feel his guard come down a little bit.
00:35:07It's the horses.
00:35:08They calm my energy.
00:35:10Yeah.
00:35:10Good to know.
00:35:12Obviously, I love the farm so much.
00:35:13This is my happy place and I just want to have a bit of fun now and see that playful
00:35:17side of him.
00:35:18If I'm bringing you out to the horses, you know what's coming.
00:35:20Yeah.
00:35:20If you need to chat with me, just take me to the horses.
00:35:22Yeah.
00:35:23We've got some fresh air.
00:35:24We're surrounded by animals and good vibes.
00:35:25So, yeah, maybe tomorrow we'll wake up in a better space.
00:35:28Thank you guys for mediating.
00:35:30Thank you.
00:35:31Yes.
00:35:33Better than the experts.
00:35:34I know.
00:35:36While Sam and Chris are enjoying the benefits of time in nature.
00:35:40So far so good, hey?
00:35:41You happy boo?
00:35:43So far so good.
00:35:44Bec and Danny are settling into city life and all that it has to offer.
00:35:48Here's to Adelaide.
00:35:51Yeah.
00:35:52I don't know why you're laughing.
00:35:54Here's that.
00:35:55Yeah, obviously seeing family.
00:35:56We've had a really good day today.
00:35:58Um, Adelaide's been nice so far.
00:36:00Her auntie lives three minutes away.
00:36:02Her dad lives three minutes away.
00:36:03Her cousin lives five minutes away.
00:36:05But they're all so close.
00:36:07It's like a family, close-knit family here in Adelaide.
00:36:12Is Coco allowed a bit of, um...
00:36:14Cabana?
00:36:15Cabana.
00:36:15Yeah, she loves a piece of salami as well though.
00:36:18Coco, she's a sweetheart.
00:36:20So, um, yeah, I'm just, uh, I'm just enjoying it.
00:36:23Do you feel like there's a lot of pressure?
00:36:26I don't really feel like there is.
00:36:28Because if you don't want to live in Adelaide, I'll move, I'll live in Melbourne.
00:36:32I don't really feel like there's pressure.
00:36:36Do I look like a man who feels pressure?
00:36:39I am an animal.
00:36:45Like, sometimes you're...
00:36:46Because we're still in this experiment.
00:36:48No, sometimes your brain can block out pressure.
00:36:54Nice and peaceful there though, ain't it?
00:36:57Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:37:03The f***ing hell!
00:37:04Is there another flame?
00:37:06It's a flight path.
00:37:10I feel like...
00:37:12And like, seriously, I actually feel like we've worked so hard
00:37:16to get to this point.
00:37:21Dear goodness, I'd say the least, though, wouldn't you?
00:37:26Stop.
00:37:27You wouldn't want to be a night shift worker living here, would you?
00:37:30F*** me.
00:37:34F*** the hell.
00:37:36Point of contention in mine and Danny's relationship is that
00:37:40in some serious situations, he will crack a joke.
00:37:44But I know that it's a defence mechanism.
00:37:48You think he's just plainly cool?
00:37:49100%.
00:37:51Definitely.
00:37:52Why do boys do that?
00:37:54And look at us in comparison with some of the other couples.
00:37:58Honestly.
00:38:00I'm proud of us too.
00:38:01Because, like, the patience I've had to have to stick with you,
00:38:07do you know what I mean?
00:38:08I've got the patience of a saint.
00:38:11Boys are just annoying.
00:38:13And they mess with your head.
00:38:15But for me, I definitely feel like Danny's probably holding off on
00:38:18telling me he loves me.
00:38:20I think he's very much hoping to find the right time.
00:38:26I mean, I know he loves me already.
00:38:28I know he does.
00:38:40As the sun sets on another day of homestays...
00:38:44It was a lot.
00:38:46Yeah.
00:38:46I can imagine.
00:38:48Alyssa is still reeling following an emotional lunch with mum Belinda.
00:38:53Yeah, it was a lot today.
00:38:55But I'm glad that you got along with my mum and she had nothing but, like, praise.
00:38:59Oh.
00:38:59You know, she really likes you.
00:39:01I can see a lot of positive, like, traits she's given you, for sure.
00:39:06And that's definitely one of them.
00:39:09She's just a straight shooter.
00:39:10She knows who I am and what I need.
00:39:13Yeah, there's definitely things that mum's brought up today that I know that I need to, you know, really consider.
00:39:22Yeah, like, it's huge.
00:39:24Yeah.
00:39:25It's a lot.
00:39:26Like, I just forgot.
00:39:28I forgot how much I have here.
00:39:30And, like, I can't just pack up and go.
00:39:34I think I'm just getting very overwhelmed with what, you know, what I have at stake here and what I
00:39:43could potentially be walking away from.
00:39:45So I'm at a bit of a catch-22 right now and I've got to mentally take it one day
00:39:49at a time right now because otherwise I'm going to overwhelm my brain.
00:39:52You know, Alyssa is literally spiraling.
00:39:57She's already freaking out about having to move to Sydney.
00:40:01I don't take it lightly.
00:40:02I've got a lot to consider as well.
00:40:04I know Alyssa doesn't have much time.
00:40:06You know, she wants to be a mum.
00:40:08But I feel like this marriage could work if we both just stop stressing and just keep doing what we're
00:40:18doing.
00:40:18I know that the clock is ticking and all that, you know.
00:40:21But all I can do is say, like, you know, day by day I'll show, like, that I am here
00:40:27for the long haul and we're just going to have to take it as it comes.
00:40:30I know.
00:40:31I just feel like it's just everything.
00:40:33It's just the way our relationship works.
00:40:35You know, I have to normally be the one to emotionally anchor Alyssa a lot of the times.
00:40:40And that's what's happening here again.
00:40:50Across town at the end of a long night, Bec and Danny are still reflecting on the success of time
00:40:56spent with Bec's loved ones.
00:40:59Because you appreciate the family dynamic.
00:41:04Of course.
00:41:05Because I haven't got no family out here, so of course I appreciate it.
00:41:10On that note, I wanted to obviously say thank you for showing me Adelaide and letting me into your world.
00:41:17Obviously, you've took me into your house and that's not an easy thing to do.
00:41:21It was easy for me.
00:41:25Well, some people might have found it harder, but, yeah, I wanted to thank you for showing me your city
00:41:31and welcome me into open arms with your family.
00:41:35One thing I've never told you in the past is, like, with...
00:41:39Because I haven't got no family out here, when I'm with a partner, I take their family on as, like,
00:41:45my own.
00:41:47Yeah, so, honestly, it means the world to me and I really want to thank you for that.
00:41:53Really?
00:41:54What do you mean I'm barely in the past?
00:41:56Thank you and the cheers.
00:42:00Come here.
00:42:02Thank you again.
00:42:06Really?
00:42:07Why are you barely in me?
00:42:10It's a nice night next to the fire, isn't it?
00:42:17That's a cute boot.
00:42:21When Danny opens up to me and tells me how he feels about his time in Adelaide, I love it.
00:42:26It's beautiful.
00:42:27It's what I want to hear.
00:42:28It's how I feel.
00:42:30It's how he feels.
00:42:30It's amazing.
00:42:33I...
00:42:35Like, I relish in those moments.
00:42:37The way your family have been welcomed to me with open arms.
00:42:41They've been very respectful and really, like, generous.
00:42:45I feel like probably the luckiest girl in the world at the moment to have homestays going
00:42:50as well as they are going.
00:42:54Danny loves my family and my family loves him.
00:42:58So, so now, all I need is for Danny to tell me he loves me.
00:43:01That would be the most amazing thing ever.
00:43:12But, like, if my family felt the need to have hard conversations with you, they would.
00:43:19But you give them a sense of comfort and stability that you give me, and they can see that.
00:43:35I think, obviously, because Danielle fancied me, she didn't want to, like...
00:43:42I'm joking.
00:43:44I'm joking.
00:43:45It's like a serious moment.
00:43:48Oh, my God.
00:43:49It's gone down like a lead balloon.
00:43:53Sometimes we need, like, a moment where, like, it's not all a joke.
00:43:59You know?
00:44:02We've talked about it over and over.
00:44:04It's a defence mechanism of Danny's.
00:44:07He feels really strongly, and then, all of a sudden,
00:44:11he wants to throw in a joke and make a mockery of the situation,
00:44:15and it pisses me off.
00:44:17I crack the joke.
00:44:18I always crack jokes.
00:44:20I crack jokes 24-7.
00:44:22You're acting like I'm Mr. Serious.
00:44:24I'm Mr. Albert Einstein, and then I cracked an out-of-pocket joke.
00:44:27It wasn't like that, Bec.
00:44:29Who's going to get...
00:44:30But, like, if you say something nice...
00:44:33Thanks, Bec.
00:44:34Yeah, really, thanks for that.
00:44:36I'm a great joke.
00:44:50I think, obviously, because Danielle fancied me,
00:44:52she didn't want to...
00:44:57I'm joking.
00:44:58I'm joking.
00:44:59It's like a serious moment.
00:45:03Oh, my God.
00:45:04It's gone down like a lead balloon.
00:45:08Sometimes we need, like, a moment where, like,
00:45:10it's not all a joke.
00:45:14You know?
00:45:16I crack the joke.
00:45:17I always crack jokes.
00:45:19Who's going to get...
00:45:20But, like, if you say something nice...
00:45:22Thanks, Bec.
00:45:23Yeah, really, thanks for that.
00:45:25I've got great jokes.
00:45:27In the edit, what are you talking about?
00:45:29This is real life.
00:45:31He's more worried about how he looks on camera now
00:45:34because he knows he made a mistake.
00:45:35He says, you and me...
00:45:36There's a camera in my face,
00:45:37and you're abusing me over a joke.
00:45:39Dude, there's a camera in my face,
00:45:40and you're making a joke of what I'm saying.
00:45:42It's serious for me.
00:45:44This relationship is serious for me.
00:45:46So, when he is making a mockery
00:45:50of the situation that we're in,
00:45:52it pisses me off.
00:45:53And it's those moments
00:45:55where he doesn't take things seriously
00:45:57that makes me second-guess
00:46:00and go, oh, God, like...
00:46:02What if he's not into me?
00:46:04I might be looking like a fool
00:46:07who's just, like,
00:46:08grasping onto those tiny bits of seriousness.
00:46:12I'm Danny.
00:46:13I always crack jokes 24-7,
00:46:15and I cracked another joke.
00:46:17It diminishes it.
00:46:19Don't do that.
00:46:20To me, don't do it.
00:46:23If you feel that it's good,
00:46:25say it's good,
00:46:26and then don't joke about it.
00:46:28I just said it was.
00:46:28I know, but you joked about it at the end.
00:46:30But you know, but beg.
00:46:31It doesn't matter.
00:46:31I don't care.
00:46:32There's a time for serious,
00:46:34and there's a time for joking.
00:46:39And I tried to open up and show my more vulnerable side,
00:46:43which I'm not good at.
00:46:44I find it a bit cringe,
00:46:45but I wanted to do it for her
00:46:46because I knew it would be special for her,
00:46:49and so I cracked the joke
00:46:50to sort of lighten my mood.
00:46:53You can say something really nice.
00:46:54Hang on, wait.
00:46:55Let's talk about it later.
00:46:57No.
00:46:58And then the joke was just met by her just coming at me.
00:47:04You say something really nice,
00:47:06and then I go to respond,
00:47:08and you make a joke about what I'm saying.
00:47:10No.
00:47:10Diminishes the whole situation.
00:47:12The joke is the joke,
00:47:14but, like, the moment was the moment.
00:47:15Maybe we're both bad at cracking jokes.
00:47:17No.
00:47:18You crack jokes when you shouldn't be.
00:47:20There's a time and a place.
00:47:21And you haven't done that.
00:47:24Yeah, I'm actually a bit mind-blamed.
00:47:28Can I have you guys over here, please?
00:47:30At the retreat, she cracked a bad joke.
00:47:33We've had I love yous,
00:47:35and we've had finger bangs, so, like...
00:47:39And it landed wrong in front of the whole group.
00:47:42No, no, no, no.
00:47:43No, I think it wasn't appropriate.
00:47:45I backed her wholeheartedly.
00:47:47I went against the whole group for days.
00:47:50We hit it.
00:47:50Moving forward, we can't go back.
00:47:52But moving forward, let's try and be better.
00:47:55And then for her to do the exact same to me,
00:47:59to, like, go at me over a joke,
00:48:01is so frustrating.
00:48:05You should be able to say something nice
00:48:07and be genuine about it
00:48:09and then not say,
00:48:10oh, your cousin wants to me.
00:48:12Like...
00:48:12I never said that.
00:48:14I know.
00:48:15Don't put words in my mouth.
00:48:17I never said your cousin wants to F you, Amy.
00:48:20When she's in that mode,
00:48:22I can't speak to her.
00:48:24I just feel lost.
00:48:25Like, I can't speak to her.
00:48:26And I thought that side of her had left
00:48:28because we spoke about it.
00:48:30She's put so much work into herself.
00:48:32But to see it just come out,
00:48:34it's obviously still there,
00:48:36still fully alive.
00:48:38It's a poorly timed joke, dude.
00:48:40Like,
00:48:42just take it on board and...
00:48:44I'm taking it on board.
00:48:45And take what I'm saying...
00:48:47Thank you.
00:48:48Don't say thank you.
00:48:50It's not about saying thank you.
00:48:51But take what I'm saying...
00:48:54Thanks, babe.
00:48:54...as seriously...
00:48:55Stop saying, saying thank you.
00:49:05Yeah, I'm done.
00:49:08F***ing point.
00:49:09That's fine.
00:49:11This is what I mean.
00:49:13Yeah, and good luck for me
00:49:15for the rest of the night
00:49:15getting crucified.
00:49:19I don't want to be here right now.
00:49:21I don't want to be here
00:49:22with her right now.
00:49:23I feel very uncomfortable
00:49:24being here
00:49:25because I'm in her realm.
00:49:28Her house.
00:49:30I'm just here by myself.
00:49:32I've got none of my friends here,
00:49:33none of my family here.
00:49:34And if she can just turn on me like that,
00:49:36I'm not sure if I'd want to move here.
00:49:39And I was very open to the idea.
00:49:42But...
00:49:42Don't know about it right now.
00:49:51In Adelaide...
00:49:52I just, like, miss her so much.
00:49:54She's been...
00:49:54Bridesmaids Bec and Adriana
00:49:56are on their way
00:49:57to meet a still-spiralling Alyssa
00:50:00and husband David for drinks.
00:50:02Oh.
00:50:05Oh, I'm terrified.
00:50:07Everything's just too much
00:50:08on my head.
00:50:10Last night,
00:50:11Alyssa started literally spiralling.
00:50:16Hello.
00:50:17Hey, guys.
00:50:18How are you?
00:50:19Can I go to this?
00:50:20Wow.
00:50:20So good to see you.
00:50:21It would be good to talk to
00:50:22Alyssa's closest and nearest,
00:50:25Adriana and Bec.
00:50:26Are you doing well?
00:50:27I'm doing well.
00:50:27Yeah, I'm good.
00:50:28We are both putting on
00:50:29a brave face.
00:50:30But right now,
00:50:31the vibes are not vibing.
00:50:33And, you know,
00:50:34I'm hoping that today
00:50:35we'll change that.
00:50:36Tell me,
00:50:37what's been going on?
00:50:40It's all been going,
00:50:41like, really well for us.
00:50:42But now we're getting to the end
00:50:44of the experiment.
00:50:45And I feel like,
00:50:46you know,
00:50:47we've been living
00:50:47in our little bubble in Sydney
00:50:49and now it's...
00:50:50Yeah.
00:50:51It's like it's hitting you guys
00:50:52a little bit more now, right?
00:50:53Yeah.
00:50:53Yeah, big time.
00:50:55I will be honest with you,
00:50:57like,
00:50:59I...
00:50:59I started to spiral.
00:51:02Because, you know,
00:51:03we said we'd move to Sydney
00:51:04if it was going well.
00:51:08What the f*** did she just say?
00:51:10I know.
00:51:10Yeah, sorry, I haven't...
00:51:11Don't go to Sydney.
00:51:11I haven't even spoken
00:51:12to your girls about it.
00:51:13You guys could, like,
00:51:13softened that.
00:51:14I know.
00:51:15And that's something
00:51:16we've discussed.
00:51:17But the thing is,
00:51:19landing in Adelaide,
00:51:20it's hit home.
00:51:21I have so much here.
00:51:22Yeah.
00:51:22It's so much
00:51:23that I'm putting on the line.
00:51:25You know,
00:51:25I have a career
00:51:26that I've built,
00:51:27a business that I've built.
00:51:29The other thing
00:51:29that I've got,
00:51:31like,
00:51:31I want to have a family.
00:51:33Don't want to miss out
00:51:34on being a mum.
00:51:35And if we're going
00:51:36to make this thing work,
00:51:37after the experiment,
00:51:39David might have
00:51:39to move to Adelaide.
00:51:42Like,
00:51:43you know...
00:51:44And we do at the moment, like...
00:51:46Could you see yourself
00:51:47living here?
00:51:53To be honest, yeah.
00:51:55I'm not going to lie.
00:51:56I feel like I'm at the point
00:51:58where, you know,
00:51:59if I had to, you know,
00:52:01take that risk,
00:52:02I'm ready to do it.
00:52:03Right now,
00:52:03I feel like she's on.
00:52:04I'm ready to go all in.
00:52:07It is slightly overwhelming.
00:52:09You know,
00:52:09moving to Adelaide
00:52:10is not a small feat,
00:52:11but I have sacrificed
00:52:12so much
00:52:14to come on
00:52:15to this experiment
00:52:15and
00:52:17I want to see it through.
00:52:18I'm f***ing shit-skinned
00:52:20and I even said that
00:52:20to him today, like...
00:52:22The big question for me now is,
00:52:24is that enough for Alyssa?
00:52:26I've laid all my cards out,
00:52:28but
00:52:28I can only meet her
00:52:30as far as she's willing
00:52:31to meet me.
00:52:35I know that you're willing
00:52:36to move here,
00:52:38which is great,
00:52:40but
00:52:40I don't know,
00:52:41I feel like I'm getting
00:52:41overwhelmed with it.
00:52:42You're like literally
00:52:43on the basis.
00:52:44You're overwhelmed.
00:52:44I am.
00:52:45I am.
00:52:46I am.
00:52:46Because it's like
00:52:47a lot.
00:52:48Because a lot.
00:52:50I'm spiralling
00:52:51because I'm scared
00:52:52and I'm spiralling
00:52:53in my head
00:52:54because it's becoming
00:52:55very real
00:52:55and I want to make sure
00:52:56David's like the right person.
00:52:58I want to make sure
00:52:59that, you know,
00:53:01I guess,
00:53:01well, just time will tell.
00:53:04Alyssa,
00:53:04I'm really sorry, babe.
00:53:05I have to ask this to you.
00:53:07You sat here
00:53:08and you've talked
00:53:09a lot about
00:53:09what your wants
00:53:10and needs are
00:53:11and you've talked
00:53:12a lot around
00:53:13your career progression.
00:53:18What about...
00:53:19Yeah, David.
00:53:20What about David?
00:53:20And that's the other thing
00:53:21because, like,
00:53:22that is the other thing.
00:53:23Right now,
00:53:24this is too good
00:53:24to be true.
00:53:25Like,
00:53:26and that is also
00:53:27another reason
00:53:27why I'm scared too.
00:53:29Alyssa is definitely
00:53:30self-sabotaging,
00:53:31I think.
00:53:32And I think David
00:53:33is a very patient person,
00:53:34but everyone
00:53:36has their limitations.
00:53:39I don't...
00:53:40I just...
00:53:41Just...
00:53:42I'm overthinking everything.
00:53:44100%.
00:53:44Alyssa's friends
00:53:45pointed out
00:53:46very honestly
00:53:47that, you know,
00:53:49Alyssa has made
00:53:50it all about her.
00:53:51When you've put
00:53:52all your cards
00:53:53on the table
00:53:54for someone
00:53:54and they're still
00:53:55unsure
00:53:56and they need
00:53:57more confirmation,
00:53:58it's sort of like,
00:53:59wait a minute,
00:54:00you know,
00:54:00I have sacrificed
00:54:02a lot already
00:54:03just by telling
00:54:04Alyssa that
00:54:04I'm ready to come
00:54:05to Adelaide,
00:54:06I'm ready to do this,
00:54:07I'm ready to do that.
00:54:08And if Alyssa
00:54:09still questions
00:54:10my intentions
00:54:11at this point
00:54:12in the experiment,
00:54:13then we're just
00:54:13not for each other.
00:54:16It's like,
00:54:16just take it down
00:54:17a notch for yourself
00:54:17for a second, right?
00:54:19But I think
00:54:19what he's proven to you
00:54:20is he's stable,
00:54:21he's calm,
00:54:23and he's here
00:54:24and he's shown up
00:54:25for you,
00:54:25which are three things
00:54:27that you had not had
00:54:28in a really long time.
00:54:30So first of all,
00:54:32take that win.
00:54:32Okay.
00:54:33Second,
00:54:34it's a win,
00:54:34it's a big win.
00:54:35It's a massive win.
00:54:36It's a big win.
00:54:36Obviously there's
00:54:37a bit of like,
00:54:38you know,
00:54:38this and that going on,
00:54:40a bit of sort of
00:54:41like we're unsure,
00:54:42but I think
00:54:43there's actually,
00:54:44they're falling
00:54:44for each other.
00:54:45I think you need
00:54:46to stop putting
00:54:46the pressure on.
00:54:47Right now,
00:54:48you just have to
00:54:49keep the spark
00:54:50going between
00:54:51the two of you,
00:54:52see how your lives
00:54:53integrate in time,
00:54:55and remember
00:54:56that if you have
00:54:57something special,
00:54:58this is the point
00:54:59of life.
00:55:00I think he's
00:55:01handling it all
00:55:01really well,
00:55:02and I think
00:55:03they could go
00:55:03all the way,
00:55:04but I think
00:55:05there's got to be
00:55:06some give and take
00:55:06from like,
00:55:08probably Alyssa
00:55:09to make that happen.
00:55:10David actually
00:55:11is everything
00:55:12that you've asked.
00:55:13I know.
00:55:14You will be loved
00:55:15and supported.
00:55:16That's going to be
00:55:17the test for both of them.
00:55:26As Alyssa and David
00:55:27navigate a crisis
00:55:28of confidence,
00:55:31back at the farm,
00:55:33Sam too has found
00:55:34himself spiralling
00:55:36following a difficult
00:55:37start to the day.
00:55:39Um, I'm not,
00:55:40I'm not feeling great.
00:55:43I woke up
00:55:44and like,
00:55:44Chris wasn't here.
00:55:46Like, he went to the gym
00:55:47and didn't even
00:55:48message my phone.
00:55:50Yeah, I guess
00:55:51just being here
00:55:51and knowing how
00:55:53beautiful this place is
00:55:54and how much
00:55:54I would love
00:55:55to live here,
00:55:56but then not feeling
00:55:58that I'm really
00:55:58a priority,
00:56:00it's a bit of a concern.
00:56:01I don't know.
00:56:02Like, I find
00:56:03that very selfish
00:56:04behaviour.
00:56:07Coming up...
00:56:08Do you accept
00:56:08full responsibility
00:56:09for your defensiveness
00:56:10and the aggression
00:56:11I felt from you last week?
00:56:12Chris's misdemeanours
00:56:15resurface...
00:56:15Yeah.
00:56:16..in the form
00:56:17of a book.
00:56:18Do you see that
00:56:18breaking this behaviour
00:56:19means letting go of ego?
00:56:21I honestly felt like
00:56:22I was, um,
00:56:2315, getting in trouble
00:56:23by a teacher or something.
00:56:25Yeah, you can take
00:56:26the list for someone else,
00:56:27it's not my vibe.
00:56:28Ha ha ha.
00:56:35A controversial sign
00:56:36while filming.
00:56:37Here's where people
00:56:38are upset.
00:56:39Now, the sign says,
00:56:40quote,
00:56:41you may be captured
00:56:41on film
00:56:42and if you think
00:56:43you are fit
00:56:44and or attractive enough
00:56:45to feature in the background,
00:56:46please make yourself
00:56:47known to our production team.
00:56:49Justin, is it just a joke?
00:56:51Are they just sort of,
00:56:51you know...
00:56:52No.
00:56:52It's a very bad one.
00:56:53Josh and everyone.
00:56:54The public's response
00:56:55to the sign,
00:56:56I mean,
00:56:57I was not expecting that.
00:56:58They don't want
00:56:59to have an Instagram clip
00:57:00with someone
00:57:01of a normal size
00:57:02in the background, right?
00:57:03The amount of response,
00:57:05the amount of articles,
00:57:06the level of anger
00:57:07people got to,
00:57:08I thought it was kind of funny.
00:57:10The last thing we want
00:57:11in this world
00:57:11is reality TV producers
00:57:14sort of picking
00:57:15who's good looking
00:57:15and who's not good looking.
00:57:17I honestly laughed
00:57:17when we were filming
00:57:19the part with the sign.
00:57:20I didn't really think
00:57:21anything of it.
00:57:21Does anyone think
00:57:22this is just a joke?
00:57:23No.
00:57:23It's not a joke,
00:57:24they mean it.
00:57:25Oh, do that.
00:57:25Oh, absolutely.
00:57:26Oh, yeah.
00:57:47The last thing we want
00:57:49in this world
00:57:49is reality TV
00:57:51picking who's good looking
00:57:52and who's not.
00:57:58At the farm,
00:57:59Chris has returned
00:58:00from a morning
00:58:01at the gym
00:58:02and attending
00:58:02to the animals.
00:58:04Look at this.
00:58:05What a day.
00:58:05Pretty set up.
00:58:06Yeah.
00:58:07And has set aside
00:58:08the afternoon
00:58:09for some quality time
00:58:10with husband Sam.
00:58:12Chin chin.
00:58:12Chin chin.
00:58:13Yes,
00:58:14we're about to have
00:58:15a scotch by the fire,
00:58:17two of my favourite things.
00:58:18I'm so excited.
00:58:20It's been
00:58:20such a big day today.
00:58:22You can probably tell
00:58:23I'm a little bit happier.
00:58:24It's just my vibe.
00:58:25I love it out here so much.
00:58:26I'm not a city boy
00:58:27and this really helps
00:58:28my mental health.
00:58:29It gives me clarity.
00:58:31You know,
00:58:32last night
00:58:32I was making Sam dinner
00:58:33and I kind of had
00:58:35a reminder
00:58:35of what those feelings
00:58:36were like in the beginning.
00:58:37Looking at his face
00:58:38and just, you know,
00:58:39wanting to, like, kiss it.
00:58:40So, yeah,
00:58:41it's been great for me.
00:58:42There's a glimmer.
00:58:44But, I mean,
00:58:45I'm having the best time
00:58:46and I love having you here
00:58:47and everything, so...
00:58:48Yeah.
00:58:49But while life on the farm
00:58:50appears to be working
00:58:51its magic on Chris,
00:58:54Sam is still struggling
00:58:55with doubts
00:58:56after being left
00:58:57to fend for himself
00:58:58all morning.
00:59:02How was your day?
00:59:06Um...
00:59:10Yeah, no,
00:59:11it's cool here.
00:59:13Yeah, I'm glad you like it.
00:59:16It's not for everybody,
00:59:17but, um, yeah.
00:59:18Yeah.
00:59:19It's a nice life.
00:59:20Yeah.
00:59:24Yeah.
00:59:27It's the last night
00:59:28of homestays, right?
00:59:28Um,
00:59:29I think we need to, like,
00:59:30really...
00:59:31I don't know if it's, like,
00:59:32cut the bullshit
00:59:32and just make sure
00:59:33we're being super,
00:59:34super honest with each other.
00:59:35Yeah.
00:59:36Obviously, like,
00:59:37last week,
00:59:37I think both of us
00:59:39were pretty checked out
00:59:39from each other
00:59:40for obvious reasons
00:59:41with the whole
00:59:42commitment ceremony
00:59:42and stuff like that, so...
00:59:43I mean,
00:59:44I don't think I checked out.
00:59:45I think
00:59:47the reason I was so hurt
00:59:48is because I was
00:59:49very checked in.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:54So, I wrote
00:59:55some questions down
00:59:56and maybe
00:59:58we could just be, like,
00:59:59really raw and honest
01:00:00with each other
01:00:01about all the answers.
01:00:03Um,
01:00:04would you mind
01:00:05if we went through
01:00:05the questions?
01:00:06Yeah, of course.
01:00:06Cool.
01:00:07Okay, get them.
01:00:08Yeah.
01:00:10Sam loves
01:00:10to really dig deep.
01:00:13Whereas I was actually
01:00:14just looking forward
01:00:15to kicking back
01:00:15and relaxing.
01:00:16I don't know
01:00:17what's coming.
01:00:20I've got my glasses.
01:00:21Okay, you ready?
01:00:22You ready?
01:00:25Um,
01:00:26yeah.
01:00:27So,
01:00:29the first question is,
01:00:30do you accept
01:00:31full responsibility
01:00:32for your defensiveness
01:00:33and the aggression
01:00:33I felt from you
01:00:34last week?
01:00:37Um,
01:00:37what are you referring to?
01:00:39Uh,
01:00:39like,
01:00:40the way you treated me
01:00:41at the dinner party,
01:00:42the rolling your eyes,
01:00:43the, like,
01:00:44I guess,
01:00:45sass you were giving me
01:00:46about what happened
01:00:47even on the couch
01:00:48before.
01:00:49Yeah.
01:00:52Do you think
01:00:53it was fair
01:00:53what the experts
01:00:54said to you
01:00:55on the couch
01:00:56because for me
01:00:56their feedback
01:00:57felt accurate?
01:00:59Yes.
01:01:03Do you realise
01:01:04my awkwardness
01:01:04and silence towards you
01:01:05was a direct result
01:01:06of your behaviour,
01:01:07not me being cold
01:01:07for no reason?
01:01:09Yes.
01:01:11Do you understand
01:01:12why I raised
01:01:13our issues
01:01:13at the dinner party?
01:01:14I was scared
01:01:15to bring them up
01:01:15with just the two of us
01:01:16because of the way
01:01:17you've been reacting.
01:01:18I do now,
01:01:20yes.
01:01:22Um,
01:01:22Do you see
01:01:23that breaking
01:01:23this behaviour
01:01:24means letting go
01:01:25of ego
01:01:25and actually unpacking
01:01:26why you react
01:01:27like that?
01:01:28Uh,
01:01:29yes,
01:01:29and we've,
01:01:30I feel like
01:01:30we've gone through this.
01:01:31Yeah.
01:01:31Yeah.
01:01:33I'm f***ing so over it.
01:01:34Like,
01:01:34honestly,
01:01:35I'm so over it.
01:01:36Like,
01:01:36you've seen how hard
01:01:36I worked
01:01:37on a daily basis.
01:01:38I've got so much
01:01:39shit going on.
01:01:40Um,
01:01:40I'm so f***ing over it.
01:01:42Can you promise me
01:01:43that if I bring up
01:01:44my feelings
01:01:44and give you feedback,
01:01:45you won't speak
01:01:46to me like that again?
01:01:47Yes,
01:01:48I promise.
01:01:48You don't have to agree.
01:01:50Yeah,
01:01:50no,
01:01:50I agree.
01:01:51I just,
01:01:51I feel like we've,
01:01:52just,
01:01:52I've already
01:01:53suffered enough
01:01:54from this.
01:01:55Um,
01:01:56it's not good.
01:01:57No,
01:01:58I hate,
01:01:58I hate that
01:01:59and I hate
01:02:00that it was written down.
01:02:02I honestly felt
01:02:03like I was,
01:02:04um,
01:02:0415,
01:02:05getting in trouble
01:02:05by a teacher
01:02:05or something.
01:02:06I mean,
01:02:07we can stop this.
01:02:08No,
01:02:08let's,
01:02:09let's go through it.
01:02:10Okay.
01:02:10Yeah.
01:02:11Um,
01:02:15do you,
01:02:16um,
01:02:17do you have feelings
01:02:18for me?
01:02:19Um,
01:02:21okay,
01:02:22okay,
01:02:22um,
01:02:25you know,
01:02:26um,
01:02:29well,
01:02:29I don't want to dwell
01:02:29on the,
01:02:30the negatives
01:02:31of the past
01:02:32and I just want
01:02:33to put my dad
01:02:34hat on
01:02:34and I just want
01:02:35to focus
01:02:35on the positives.
01:02:37Um,
01:02:39yeah,
01:02:39I mean,
01:02:40I feel like
01:02:40with you saying
01:02:42I want to put
01:02:42my dad hat on,
01:02:43like,
01:02:43I kind of want
01:02:44to be someone's
01:02:45number one priority.
01:02:46Yeah,
01:02:46I think I've realised,
01:02:47I think I've realised
01:02:48that being here,
01:02:53I think
01:02:55my feelings
01:02:56are like,
01:02:57they're pretty gone.
01:03:03I can't see this working.
01:03:17I think my feelings are like, they're pretty gone.
01:03:26I can't see this working.
01:03:31Um,
01:03:32Sam and I have just broken up.
01:03:35Yeah,
01:03:35um,
01:03:36I appreciate you being honest,
01:03:37I think this is what we needed.
01:03:39I feel like, um,
01:03:40yeah,
01:03:41I wasn't expecting that,
01:03:42but also,
01:03:43I'm actually kind of glad
01:03:46it's all good.
01:03:47I'm not used to someone bringing out a book
01:03:48with, like,
01:03:49a list of, um,
01:03:51questions for me.
01:03:52It's not how I roll.
01:03:54I've apologised seven times in total for that now.
01:03:57Yeah.
01:03:57It's probably the answer that we both knew was,
01:04:00you know,
01:04:00we both knew it in the back of our mind.
01:04:03It's,
01:04:04it's bittersweet,
01:04:05and, you know,
01:04:05the sweet part is a,
01:04:06I think we learn a lot about ourselves,
01:04:07so,
01:04:08yeah,
01:04:08it's sad,
01:04:08but it's also,
01:04:09it's also a touch of sweet.
01:04:11Yeah,
01:04:11I'm letting it go as well,
01:04:12just to be clear.
01:04:13But it's like,
01:04:14it's all good.
01:04:18Yeah.
01:04:19It's not how I envisioned it would end.
01:04:23I'm a little annoyed,
01:04:24to be honest.
01:04:27Yeah.
01:04:28I really thought Chris would fight for me a bit.
01:04:33Yeah, anyway,
01:04:34look,
01:04:34it is what it is.
01:04:42Want a hand packing?
01:04:43No,
01:04:44I should be fine.
01:04:48Um,
01:04:50yeah,
01:04:50it kind of sucks.
01:04:54And I still wonder what the real reason is,
01:04:56Matt,
01:04:56he didn't fight for it at all.
01:04:59Um,
01:05:00do you want my honest opinion?
01:05:02Uh,
01:05:03I've tried my hardest.
01:05:05Um,
01:05:05I have made growth,
01:05:07but yeah,
01:05:07that wasn't good enough.
01:05:08So,
01:05:09yeah,
01:05:11there is a part of me that's looking forward to the next journey and my next love,
01:05:15and that's my children.
01:05:17But,
01:05:17um,
01:05:17yeah,
01:05:18he can take the list to someone else.
01:05:19It's not my bud.
01:05:29Tomorrow night.
01:05:29Throughout this experiment,
01:05:31I have been patient,
01:05:32but when you're dealing with the mum,
01:05:34the family,
01:05:35friends,
01:05:36they all said that I'm a great guy for her,
01:05:38and she still sees negatives,
01:05:40there's nothing else I can do.
01:05:42As David reached his limit.
01:05:44That's the first time I've ever heard you say that you need space.
01:05:47You never say space.
01:05:50It's the second last dinner party of the experiment.
01:05:53I can see we can do life together.
01:05:55I feel a lot more confident now that that we can take this out onto the outside.
01:06:00Had Rachel and Stephen become this year's new power couple?
01:06:03Who would have thought?
01:06:05Who would have thought?
01:06:07The person that he has these feelings for was quite aggressive to him.
01:06:11But babe,
01:06:12you've been aggressive too at the dinner parties.
01:06:14Tensions rise when Sam and Chris air their concerns.
01:06:17You're in no position to be giving someone feedback about their behaviour, honey.
01:06:21And I've never been aggressive to you.
01:06:24And then...
01:06:25I think, like, for me, as a man,
01:06:27I feel like...
01:06:29Oh, God.
01:06:30Oh, my God.
01:06:32What? Are you on now?
01:06:34It's the shock debate that will divide the table.
01:06:37That was not what I was getting at.
01:06:40Are we serious for this?
01:06:43To be continued...
