00:00:01Do you see me as the mother-father of your children? Yes, I do see you as a
00:00:04father of my children. After seven weeks of marriage, Feedback Week brought some
00:00:10couples closer together. Only the best for my wife. Thank you for setting tasks that
00:00:16really understand Stephen and I and what we needed. But for others... Sure, I'll take
00:00:22that on board. Stephen now, I feel like you're getting defensive. I'm not getting
00:00:25defensive about having a conversation. Tensions were at an all-time high.
00:00:28I'm not doing it. No thanks.
00:00:33It was just... As Scott avoided any critical feedback, opting to keep the peace in his
00:00:41marriage. I knew if I went too deep, I'd be over the balcony. You're absolutely
00:00:48pissing me off. Danny struggled to give Beck a straight answer. Do you think you
00:00:53will fall in love with me? And why? Um... At the dinner party, after weeks of being
00:00:59caught in the crossfire... Oh, God. ...Alyssa tried to put a full stop to the feud between
00:01:06Gia and Beck... Stop using me! Stop using me as a pawn!
00:01:11And Beck and Danny spiralled. I want you to be wary about what you text people.
00:01:15Two months ago, Daniel. Okay, that was ten years ago. I want out now.
00:01:20I'm wasting my time at a dinner party talking about abusive text messages. I'm here for a
00:01:25wife and a relationship. I'm not here for drama. Do not sit there in front of everyone and not
00:01:30show solidarity to me. Just pretend for two minutes.
00:01:37Tonight, it's the second last commitment ceremony. You ask the question of like, alright, if we go
00:01:42outside the experiment, how quick would you expect like a proposal? I said the sooner the better.
00:01:47Wow. And some are already locking in plans for married life outside of the experiment.
00:01:54A man is leaving and he is actually starting to show me what my life here in Sydney could look
00:01:59like.
00:02:00And then... So last week you said that the noise from
00:02:03the group and around Gia doesn't affect your relationship. Do you still believe that?
00:02:10Will Scott speak up and confess how he feels in front of Gia? I will admit like...
00:02:20The question, what was it like, it was a bit... Could you see yourself falling in love with me?
00:02:24Yeah. Why is Danny dodging the question?
00:02:29Um...
00:02:34In one of the most confronting couch sessions ever seen.
00:02:38It's a pretty black and white question.
00:02:44Before the blind side...
00:02:49That will leave the room speechless.
00:02:52I just can't believe it.
00:03:08It's the morning of the second last commitment ceremony of the experiment.
00:03:13And despite a tense ending to last night's dinner party, one couple continued to shine bright.
00:03:23Good morning.
00:03:24Morning.
00:03:26It's the long black.
00:03:28Hopefully you don't burn the roof of your mouth.
00:03:29No, it should be fine.
00:03:30You know?
00:03:31Last night for Stella and I, yeah, it was great. We were just sitting there united, chilling out,
00:03:37uh, smooching whilst the drama's happening. We tend to do that when people are kicking off,
00:03:41we're just kissing each other.
00:03:43And then, uh, yeah, we're staying out of it for the most part.
00:03:45I think we are out of the trenches with the drama.
00:03:48Mm.
00:03:49I doubt it, but I'm very, very hopeful. I'm very hopeful. Some people cannot help themselves.
00:03:54I see the blokes like, um, Danny and Scott, and they're just ready to not talk about high school
00:04:01shit.
00:04:02Like, Scott is not his usual self. He was just...
00:04:06His light was dimmed.
00:04:08He was just not there.
00:04:09He's dimmed. Yeah, he's dimmed at the moment.
00:04:11He's just not there.
00:04:12Danny as well. Definitely.
00:04:13Yeah.
00:04:14I always look at him and he's just so withdrawn and just...
00:04:16They dissociate.
00:04:17They just dissociate and they just go to another realm.
00:04:20They just leave the place.
00:04:21They're just like this.
00:04:22Yeah.
00:04:25I just wish that people like Becca and Gia can stop saying sorry and just don't do it.
00:04:32From now on.
00:04:33Don't be sorry and go, I take accountability and just don't do it.
00:04:37How about we try that?
00:04:38And then we don't have to keep talking about this BS.
00:04:47While our couples are putting on the final touches for tonight's commitment ceremony,
00:04:53one participant who is not looking forward to seeing the experts is Gia.
00:04:58Last one I walked out.
00:05:00I don't like commitment ceremonies one bit because I hate being vulnerable and talking
00:05:04about my feelings and commitment ceremonies don't go great for me all the time.
00:05:09Last week, I feel like I was getting in so much trouble for the screenshots.
00:05:13They didn't at all question Beck. It was just me for sending them.
00:05:16I just felt like I was just attacked and it was unfair last week.
00:05:19It's not fair that I'm always taking the heat for that sort of stuff.
00:05:23I admit I was wrong for sending them, but I'm not the one who said the vulgar things in those
00:05:28screenshots that Beck was.
00:05:29I think it's just going to be more of a rehash of like what you're saying.
00:05:32Feedback week.
00:05:33Feedback week.
00:05:33Also, why'd you walk out? Which it would just be a discussion of that.
00:05:37Yeah.
00:05:38I adore and I really am falling for Gia, but like this whole experiment has been
00:05:44very tough in regards to the drama side of things. There was so many days where there
00:05:50was just so much heat and heaviness. Tonight I'm nervous seeing the experts because
00:05:55this is something that I find is a problem and I'm going to address it.
00:05:59I'm not looking forward to how she's going to feel about it,
00:06:01but I can only be honest. One couple that everyone will have their eyes on tonight is
00:06:12Beck and Danny, who had a tense argument at the end of last night's dinner party.
00:06:18Don't sit here and say, I want us to have a good relationship, but we don't because of drama at
00:06:24dinner party. I just want you to be wary about what you say.
00:06:30I'm very wary. I want you to be wary about what you text people.
00:06:35I'm done. I'm not going back in. I'm done. He says, oh, we're right or die. We're right or die.
00:06:41We're not. Just pretend for two minutes. And this morning, there has been yet another
00:06:47unexpected development in their relationship.
00:06:51How are things with you and Danny after last night's dinner party?
00:06:55Really good.
00:06:59There's so much love and adoration within this relationship. We had like a tiny little bit of
00:07:05crosswords last night. Danny sort of had a little wibble wobble and he was like, I'm sure of the
00:07:09drama. And at the end of the day, we've actually come out on top, you know, even though it's kind
00:07:14of crappy for a little while. We always come back together, talk about it and end up with a better
00:07:23understanding of each other and in a stronger place in our relationship. Do you agree?
00:07:29I became a girlfriend as well. Still happy with that decision, boo?
00:07:33Still happy with the decision.
00:07:35I feel great. I feel absolutely fantastic. Like, I'm not only a wife, I'm a girlfriend and
00:07:39I know that everything's hunky-dory. Me telling you at the commitment ceremony that I love you
00:07:45and obviously I'm in my own head as well because it's like,
00:07:50shit, like, that's a lot for me to do, ever. Like, you're the first man I've ever told that I
00:07:56love
00:07:57first, ever.
00:07:58Feedback week, Danny. How's it been?
00:08:01Been an alright week, to be honest. Like, alright is how I describe it. Not amazing, just alright.
00:08:07Obviously, the question to ask, Bec was just overreacting a little bit there, we know that,
00:08:13that's a fact. Do you think you will fall in love with me and why?
00:08:19Probably. I'd assume I will, yeah. Am I there yet? No.
00:08:27So it has sort of scared me that she's got stronger feelings to me than I have to her.
00:08:33Um, up until last week when she told me she loved me, I didn't realise she was feeling that strongly
00:08:38towards me. She'd never even told me, like, little soft things to, like, soften it. It was just like,
00:08:44that come out of nowhere. That's why when she told me on the sofa, on the couch, I was a
00:08:48bit, like, shocked.
00:08:50My feelings are extremely, extremely strong for Daniel.
00:09:00F*** it.
00:09:01I love you.
00:09:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
00:09:07CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
00:09:09Seriously.
00:09:12Do you think that you will get there, or are you still not sure?
00:09:15It's hard to tell, to be honest. It's very hard to tell.
00:09:19In regards to intimacy, it's not like I don't want to do it, but it's, it's not like,
00:09:26I'm, like, craving to do it as well, like I'm, you know, I mean.
00:09:31Because of constant drama with Bec, um, so yeah, that's probably one of the things,
00:09:36the main reason that's holding me back.
00:09:59Greetings, gents.
00:10:01Hello. Come on in.
00:10:03Good to see you all.
00:10:04Good evening.
00:10:05Good evening.
00:10:06Hi, guys.
00:10:20Hi.
00:10:21Hello. Welcome.
00:10:25Settling.
00:10:30Well, greetings, everyone, to the second last commitment ceremony.
00:10:35We are very much nearing the pointy end where you have to size up your relationship
00:10:42and really drill down on whether or not you can see a future outside of this experiment
00:10:49with the person that you've been matched with the person that you've been matched with.
00:10:52Now it gets real.
00:10:55Now in saying that next week, it is home stays.
00:11:00This is done so that all of you can have a look at your partner's life as it exists outside
00:11:06of the experiment.
00:11:08And it gives you an understanding, a glimpse of whether you can fit into it.
00:11:13This is really a reality check.
00:11:17In fact, it is absolutely pivotal for you when it comes to your final decision.
00:11:25Take it very seriously.
00:11:27Now, the past week, of course, has been Feedback Week.
00:11:30It's been a real test of how each and every one of you responds to feedback, but also how each
00:11:37of you gives feedback.
00:11:39So we'll be really interested to drill down into how that's gone for each of you
00:11:43and to see what's been the impact on your relationships.
00:11:47And of course, we saw some of that last night at the dinner party.
00:11:51It was actually quite shocking to see some of the behaviours that occurred at last night's dinner party.
00:11:58And we certainly want to get into all of that.
00:12:03Well, let's get our first couple up.
00:12:05Jira and Scott.
00:12:10Good to see you both.
00:12:12Yes, John, I'm still here. Are you happy about it?
00:12:15I'm very happy.
00:12:16Oh, I thought you wouldn't be.
00:12:18Yeah, particularly because last time, you actually walked off.
00:12:22I did.
00:12:25So, let's go back to what actually happened there.
00:12:29Because we didn't get a chance to talk to you about that.
00:12:33Because we were talking about your relationship and where you're at and what a good place you're in.
00:12:38And it was positive.
00:12:40But then something happened.
00:12:42What was it?
00:12:47I was getting in trouble for the screenshots involving Alyssa.
00:12:51But the other person wasn't getting in trouble for what was written in the screenshots.
00:12:55It felt very against me.
00:12:59And I just felt like attacked.
00:13:05And I just felt like it was a bit unfair, to be honest.
00:13:09I just felt like, what about the screen?
00:13:11What was she saying?
00:13:12Like, just me, me, me.
00:13:13I just cannot.
00:13:16So, I had to remove myself.
00:13:17I didn't want to have another argument.
00:13:19I didn't want any more volatile situations.
00:13:22I just, I had to remove myself.
00:13:26All right, so let's break it down.
00:13:28There are two parts to this.
00:13:31One part is what was said in the texts.
00:13:36Which came out at the dinner party last night.
00:13:39The specifics of it.
00:13:42And there's no getting around that.
00:13:44It's abhorrent.
00:13:47Those words, those phrases,
00:13:52towards another member in this experiment,
00:13:56was appalling.
00:13:59I mean, Bec, the hits keep coming.
00:14:16What was said in the texts.
00:14:19Which came out at the dinner party last night.
00:14:22The specifics of it.
00:14:26And there's no getting around that.
00:14:28It's abhorrent.
00:14:39I mean, Bec, the hits keep coming.
00:14:51Regardless of what bad place you were in,
00:14:53the way in which you did that
00:14:55it was malicious and extremely hurtful.
00:15:00And we don't condone it.
00:15:06That's the first part.
00:15:08The second issue
00:15:11is how they were used.
00:15:13And that's where you come into this, Gia.
00:15:15Yep.
00:15:17It was very high school.
00:15:21Trying to really get at somebody.
00:15:24While hurting another person in the process.
00:15:30It's about choices.
00:15:32It's about choices in terms of what you write in the text.
00:15:36Then it's choices about what you want to do with that
00:15:39in terms of sending it on or not.
00:15:42I know I was wrong.
00:15:45Looking back now, I wish I never sent the screenshots to Juliet.
00:15:48I was doing the wrong thing.
00:15:50I mean, it was like something happened to me,
00:15:54like that affected me and to defend myself.
00:15:56I was like, well, let me send some screenshots
00:15:58to do something to that person.
00:16:00And it was just like childish behavior, to be honest.
00:16:02So it was an eye for an eye.
00:16:03Yeah, yeah.
00:16:05OK, we do not want to revisit this ever again.
00:16:10And I'm sure Alyssa doesn't want to either.
00:16:13It is being put to bed as of right now.
00:16:20But Gia, one of the things I wanted to ask you was,
00:16:23when you left last week, Scott was sitting here,
00:16:27kind of not really knowing what was going on.
00:16:30And I just wondered whether he was featured
00:16:34in your thinking in that moment.
00:16:37I told him before I ran out, I said, I feel sick, I'm going to leave.
00:16:41Scott, how did you feel
00:16:45when you realized Gia had left?
00:16:49Well, at the time, I was sitting there and going to myself,
00:16:53she's not left me.
00:16:54I just, because I know how close we are.
00:16:56So I'm like, there's no excuse for her to just bail.
00:16:57But then obviously, the only thing I was just a little bit annoyed
00:17:01was just not being told what was going on.
00:17:03Just communication, that's all.
00:17:07But deep down, I knew she didn't run away from me.
00:17:10So, yeah.
00:17:14So last week, you said that the noise around your relationship
00:17:18from the group and around Gia doesn't affect your relationship.
00:17:23Do you still believe that?
00:17:28Last week was probably one of the most heaviest weeks
00:17:30we've had in this whole experiment.
00:17:32More so for Gia, she's had a lot to take on herself,
00:17:35not wanting to be here, um, for a few reasons.
00:17:40There's only so much, you know, I'm here to protect her
00:17:44and cater for her and make sure she's okay and give her reassurance.
00:17:46But there was a lot that happened pretty much every day.
00:17:48And I will admit, like, it does make me not be myself.
00:17:58What do you mean?
00:18:00My energy dropped and I just...
00:18:03So I'm just trying to be positive.
00:18:06And it's hard sometimes.
00:18:09But feedback week, yeah, it was pretty hard.
00:18:11What was hard about feedback week?
00:18:13Obviously, the commitment ceremony was, you know, I walked out and I wasn't good.
00:18:17You know, that... And I just... I was just feeling off, right?
00:18:21So then I get told I have a feedback date.
00:18:24And I'm like, oh, my God, I can't do this.
00:18:27I cannot put myself in a situation like this again,
00:18:30where I'm arguing with somebody.
00:18:32And I'm like, you know what, I don't want to go on the date.
00:18:34So what did you choose to do?
00:18:36I didn't go on the date.
00:18:40With these challenges that we set,
00:18:44you are certainly taken out of your comfort zone,
00:18:47but they're done for a reason.
00:18:49Here we go.
00:18:50It's all right. It's not.
00:18:52Always about everything but our relationship.
00:18:57God, like, how many more times am I going to get, like, attacked?
00:19:02It's not. It's not.
00:19:03That's the vibe I'm getting.
00:19:04It's not.
00:19:06I've been apologising. I've been accountable.
00:19:08I've been changing my behaviour.
00:19:10I just feel like the feedback letter,
00:19:14I felt like it was an attack on me.
00:19:16The tasks that we received to do,
00:19:19I just found were just, like, like, not nice.
00:19:23Number one is, Gia, remove yourself from any group chats that you're in.
00:19:28Number two, detox from all social media till final vows.
00:19:33Number three, no physical touch for 10 days.
00:19:37And I was like, I took it. This is how I took it. He took it different.
00:19:42I took it as an attack of, like, oh my God, like, another thing against me.
00:19:50Why do you feel like people are attacking you?
00:19:52I don't know.
00:19:54You have no idea.
00:19:55Well, that was Stella and Phillip, so I'm not sure why.
00:20:00There's just one thing I like to outlay is, like, whether something's negative or bad,
00:20:05or, like, something you don't want to hear or see, we don't need to hold on to it.
00:20:10Because sometimes I feel it does hurt you in a way deep down where it's got to be said out
00:20:16loud,
00:20:17or people need to know I hate it, or, like, sometimes I feel like you hold on to it for,
00:20:20with a bit of power behind you and you want to deliver it back to someone.
00:20:25And I feel if we can let go of things a lot easier, we can move past that,
00:20:30and then just focus on the other stuff.
00:20:33Because I see the light in everything, all the time.
00:20:35Like, these things that are said, letters, it doesn't matter how bad it is.
00:20:38It's not like we're bad people. People just see what, they have an opinion for it.
00:20:42Right, this is your perception, though.
00:20:43For me, for my own personal reasons and what I've been through in life, I felt attacked.
00:20:56I walked into this experiment, I said even my audition, I don't like negative stuff.
00:21:00I don't like drama, I don't like any of that, I don't want it in my life.
00:21:03And I know Gia's been involved in some of it, and we had an agreement.
00:21:06Can you make a promise to me not involve yourself in drama for the rest of this experiment?
00:21:11There's been a few difficult things inside the experiment, and I have to know whether it's the
00:21:17pressure in here or whether this is outside as well.
00:21:21Nothing's really affected me in this experiment.
00:21:23The only thing is just the drama stuff. I just, I don't like it.
00:21:26And I just want to make sure and be reassured there's not going to be that
00:21:28shit outside of this, because I won't tolerate it. That's it.
00:21:32For me, I don't want someone who's going to retaliate in really bad behaviour.
00:21:35That's what I mean.
00:21:37It's about how you carry yourself.
00:21:38It's common knowledge, I would never do that.
00:21:40That's what I'm saying, from the stuff that's happening in the experiment,
00:21:42I don't want to see that outside the experiment.
00:21:44That's all it is. I'm not saying anything bad, it's just what I've seen.
00:21:46Yeah, just, you don't know me well enough then.
00:21:50It's just not who I am. I just do not do that in life.
00:21:54I do nursing.
00:21:55I'm not saying that you're like that.
00:21:56I'm a kind person, I would never, but anyway.
00:21:58I'm not saying you're like that, I'm trying to just say what I'm feeling.
00:22:06She's not going to be happy with you playing that, I can guarantee you.
00:22:12Scott's just talking about his experience with you, what he's seen.
00:22:17He can only work with what he's seen.
00:22:19And he has seen you rise to the drama.
00:22:22So he's not saying he knows that that's what you're going to do on the outside.
00:22:27He's saying he knows that that's what you have done within the experiment.
00:22:31So surely that's reasonable.
00:22:33Yeah.
00:22:38Oh no, we're getting slammed, Chris.
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41You're not getting slammed, babe, it's nothing.
00:22:45No, I'm all good.
00:22:46I'm sorry, I'm all good, all good.
00:22:47I don't like to cry, you know, just, I'm fine.
00:22:51Let's just finish this, please, yep.
00:23:08You're all right?
00:23:09Sorry, I'm here.
00:23:11Gia, do you feel secure in this relationship?
00:23:14Yeah.
00:23:16What makes you say that?
00:23:19Because even when I say I'm going to leave, he's like, no, you can't leave.
00:23:24Like, when I, like, lose my mind and, like, spiral, he's always there to, like,
00:23:30be positive and try and turn my mood around, and I feel like he's got me.
00:23:35And I can feel like, yeah, I feel secure in this relationship.
00:23:39What about you, Scott?
00:23:43Well, the thing is, like, yes, we face these hard things, and we're not perfect people,
00:23:49but I see so many good things about you, and that's why I'm here.
00:23:54Like, you're such a beautiful person.
00:23:55Like, we've had a rough week, but we always come back to each other.
00:23:58So you feel secure in this relationship?
00:24:00100% yeah, I feel secure.
00:24:03We just have these little hurdles to get through, understand one another, you know,
00:24:06and keep pursuing our life together.
00:24:12All right, well, let's go to the decision.
00:24:14Let's go with you first, Scott.
00:24:18I'm grateful that we're still here together, and then we got through, and we're still smiling,
00:24:21and I cannot wait for homestays. It's all right to stay, and happy two months to my beautiful wife.
00:24:27Aw.
00:24:27That's cute.
00:24:29Gia, stay or leave?
00:24:31I know I need to work on some things, and I'm committed to doing that because, like,
00:24:35he's worth it, and I need to, like, grow as a person. I can't keep doing these behaviours
00:24:40that I've been doing, and I know I'm wrong for that. So, um, I'm just going to be positive this
00:24:44week and move forward, and we're going to be in our swimsuits at the beach on the Gold Coast.
00:24:51I've got square boobs, I don't know why, but that's a bikini.
00:24:55That's a bikini.
00:24:56Okay, well, I know that that was a very intense session, and it's so important for you guys
00:25:02to not brush things under the carpet. I know, Scott, you've mentioned that you like to look on
00:25:09the bright side of life, move forward as fast as you can, leave the past behind.
00:25:14Problem is, if you do that all the time, you don't address the issues that are there.
00:25:20Rather than saying, it's just going to be okay, forget about it, actually instead go,
00:25:25well, tell me more. And for you, Gia, what's really important is that if there's an issue that
00:25:31comes up from Scott, that you stay with it. Rather than look at it as a personal attack,
00:25:36this is just feedback about a behaviour. And I can sit here and talk about that behaviour,
00:25:43and then as a team, we can do something different moving forward.
00:25:47That'll help us a lot, to be honest. Because sometimes I want to bring things up and then
00:25:52I get a bit scared because I don't want you to get the wrong ideas if I'm trying to attack
00:25:56you.
00:25:57It's because I genuinely care and I just want to fix a few little things that'll help both of us.
00:26:02Yeah.
00:26:02So I really love what you just said.
00:26:04Now with that, have a great week and we'll see you next time.
00:26:07Thanks guys.
00:26:08Well done, guys.
00:26:09Cheers.
00:26:10Have a great week.
00:26:27Still to come, what has Sam in tears?
00:26:39I think I misinterpreted the question because it's a pretty black and white question.
00:27:01Next up, Rachel and Steven.
00:27:09Hello. Welcome.
00:27:11Hi.
00:27:11Welcome, welcome.
00:27:12It's nice to see you.
00:27:16Feedback week. Tell us about feedback week.
00:27:18Um, I actually think feedback week was great for Steven and I. We started off with the first tasks
00:27:25of questions. The question of, you know, saying, can you see yourself all in love with me at some
00:27:31point? We both had a big resounding yes. And so that was really nice because in terms of the
00:27:41where we view our lives in the future, they very much align. And so, yeah, it was really good.
00:27:48It was just a really great task. Feedback week has been, you know, amazing.
00:27:55I got some really good, um, advice from, uh, Alyssa, um, of trying to be a bit more of a
00:28:00leader.
00:28:01Which we saw.
00:28:02We saw, we were very impressed.
00:28:04Oh, you saw that?
00:28:05At the dinner party.
00:28:07You did have a moment at the dinner party where you stood up to the group and you spoke on
00:28:13behalf
00:28:13of the relationship in such a mature, such a take charge, such a masculine, such a all there kind of
00:28:22way.
00:28:25We were very impressed and we were literally cheering that on. It was a really, really good
00:28:31moment to see Rachel beaming because you were beaming. You were so proud of your man speaking up to the
00:28:38group.
00:28:41Setting those boundaries for the group and for the two of you.
00:28:44Well, I'm going to implement that not just for one day.
00:28:46It's going to be just in the relationship. Got to put my captain's socks, undies and hat on.
00:28:51Um, and yeah, take a bit of charge and leadership.
00:28:56Captain, I like it. Captain Stevo. I'm going to get a hat for him.
00:29:04How did it feel in the moment to speak to the group the way that you did and to ascertain
00:29:09those
00:29:09boundaries and make yourself be heard so clearly?
00:29:14I know I'm pretty quiet in the dinner parties and I sort of like to keep things to myself because
00:29:19I feel
00:29:19like it's just a little bit easier to keep your mouth closed. In some situations, uh, yeah, I guess
00:29:26it was good to, you know, finally be heard. I can imagine so.
00:29:34You guys have really been a bit of a slow burn, but every week we start to see something emerge,
00:29:42the intimacy, the speaking up. There's a lot of change in the two of you that I see,
00:29:47and it's on a week by week basis. What's it doing to you, Stevo, in terms of how you're feeling
00:29:54about
00:29:55this lovely woman?
00:29:59I feel really connected to Rachel. We're getting closer. I feel like as well, saying to Rachel,
00:30:04you know, I feel like I've come such a long way from the wedding and the ups and downs that
00:30:08we've had.
00:30:09So feeling, yeah, really good. Rachel, for you towards him, what's going on inside of you?
00:30:16So I really like Steven. I've been very clear about that. I'm very connected with Steven.
00:30:23It's just so comfortable to be ourselves and have fun and, you know, it's just amazing. And so
00:30:30I'm at the point now where my man is leaving and he is actually starting to show me what my
00:30:36life here
00:30:36in Sydney could look like.
00:30:41That really shows through your body language is just how close and comfortable you are with one another and
00:30:52loving, dare I say it. Are we reading this correctly? Does it feel comfortable to be sitting like that?
00:30:59Just this is all this is common, you know, in the apartment, you know, it's now you're showing off.
00:31:09So with that in mind, we're going to go to a decision. Let's kick it off with you, Rachel.
00:31:16This is a huge shock. I know, but I've written stay and I put like the sun and like that's
00:31:23water from
00:31:24our little beach days. And Steve-O. I like where this is going, so why would I do anything else
00:31:32besides stay? Good on you guys. Thank you so much. Well done. Great. Thank you. Thank you so much.
00:31:49Hi guys. It's a nice one.
00:32:06Our next couple on the couch.
00:32:11Chris and Sam.
00:32:17Hello, you two. Howdy. How are you? Hello guys. How we doing?
00:32:23Well, I've got to say this is a very different energy from the two of you. Not what we're used
00:32:29to
00:32:29at all. So you're like a very different couple right now. Yeah.
00:32:36Do you want to let us in? Chris, you don't look very happy. No, I'm just like, um, like first
00:32:45of all,
00:32:46you asked me a question last week. Are you starting to envision a life outside of the experiment?
00:32:51I thought it was admirable that I was actually thinking after the experiment and I said,
00:32:54perhaps potentially Sam based himself in Sydney. It came from a really good place,
00:33:00but Sam was upset that I didn't consult him before answering the question that you asked me.
00:33:05And then he said to me, 10 minutes prior to the dinner party, your three apologies weren't genuine
00:33:10enough. I'm going to bring it up in front of the group. We could have facilitated that in the apartment
00:33:15in a more private controlled environment. I feel like I've, um, you know, been dragged through the coals.
00:33:22And I'm just going to go to Sam. There's something I just want to clarify here.
00:33:26Why was it that you felt the need to bring this up in that group context?
00:33:31I wanted feedback from the group. I can go talk to my friends. You can go talk to your friends
00:33:36and we
00:33:36can try and like, see if we can move past this. Because I just couldn't see getting to a conclusion
00:33:42with just the two of us because I was just getting shut down. That's why.
00:33:49There are some pretty big lifestyle changes ahead of the two of you. Chris has got children coming.
00:33:56Yeah. You know, Chris has the farm. Yeah.
00:33:58And, you know, clearly life's going to be very much rooted around Chris's existing world.
00:34:05Yeah. And a lot of movement and compromise on your part, Sam.
00:34:10Is this the elephant in the room here for the two of you?
00:34:16Does it feel like it'll be you making all of the sacrifice?
00:34:22I'll be making big moves. Yeah. So 90% of the sacrifice would be on me to like fit into
00:34:28Chris's
00:34:28life, which is fine. Like, I know that. I'm prepared to do that if we fall for each other.
00:34:33But I just didn't want to feel like I had no say in even how that would look.
00:34:39I just feel like there could be a bit more empathy around the fact that there's a lot
00:34:43that I have to change. And I would have really liked if you discussed that with me before.
00:34:49How does that sit with you, Chris?
00:34:54My answer to you was coming from a good place. That question that you asked me,
00:34:59are you thinking about life outside of this experiment? Which I thought was such a cute
00:35:03question. That question has now like spiraled into something so much bigger than what we had
00:35:10anticipated. And it's, um, put a huge rift between us, obviously. And, um, yeah. Sam.
00:35:17I've been watching you and you look a bit withdrawn.
00:35:22What has all this, do you feel, Sam, done to your relationship?
00:35:27To be honest, like, it's, it's really sad because you guys saw me at the last commitment ceremony.
00:35:32I even wrote in my journal afterwards that a life with Chris could be magical and amazing.
00:35:37Um, and it's just like taking the feet out from underneath me. Um, yeah. It sucks.
00:35:47Chris, one of the things I said to you, very curious, because essentially you were in a great
00:35:53place a week ago. And then Sam has brought something up gently to just say, you know,
00:35:59I felt a little bit excluded. I thought that would have brought you closer. But in fact,
00:36:05the reaction he got pushes him away rather than brings him close.
00:36:11Yeah.
00:36:13And one of the things I went to is, did you take Sam's reaction as some,
00:36:19something of a rejection?
00:36:24Because what I'm thinking is that your anger was coming from hurt and fear. And it often does.
00:36:32You've taken it very personally. And I want to put that to you.
00:36:36If that's the case, what might that be about?
00:36:42Maybe just unsuccessful relationships, um, in the past, you know, like, yeah, and I have been hurt a lot.
00:36:51Here's the thing. He's bringing this conversation up in front of the group.
00:36:57Not because he wants to throw you under the bus, but because he wants to be able to talk to
00:37:02you and
00:37:02he feels like he can't. To the point where he's too scared to bring up a conversation with you,
00:37:08and he needs to take it to a larger group. That has got to get you starting to look at
00:37:14yourself
00:37:15and how you're talking. This is a real moment of truth for you. Because a communication style
00:37:24has contributed to the real crisis that you're in now.
00:37:31That doesn't mean that you can't recover. And tonight is one of those absolute key
00:37:37crossroads for you, Chris.
00:37:39Mm-hmm.
00:37:40Yeah.
00:37:45All right, let's go to the decision. Let's go with you first, Chris. Stay or leave?
00:37:51I've been going back and forth the last couple of days, um,
00:37:54um, and I've actually decided that I need and I want to go put my dad hat on and I
00:37:59would like to leave.
00:38:17All right, let's go to the decision. Let's go with you first, Chris. Stay or leave?
00:38:21I've been going back and forth the last couple of days, um, and I've actually decided that I need
00:38:27and I want to go put my dad hat on and I would like to leave.
00:38:52It's a huge turnaround from last week.
00:38:56Yeah. I just think that I need to concentrate on this next thing that's coming and he's going to,
00:39:05he's an amazing guy and he'll be amazing for someone. I just don't think it's me for the moment.
00:39:22Sam, what's going on for you right now?
00:39:30I just didn't see that coming. I thought,
00:39:36I thought, you know, this is the first hiccup we've had and we'd both come into this
00:39:41ready to take on feedback
00:39:44and then try and implement that and see if that could help.
00:39:49And it just hurts to be like, you've just given up because it got tough for a few days.
00:40:00So yeah, I just can't believe it.
00:40:05Let's go to your decision then, Sam. What have you got?
00:40:08As much as Chris gave up a lot to be here, I gave up a lot and I was,
00:40:11I wanted to leave here with absolutely no regrets either way. Like 100% knowing if Chris was the guy
00:40:17for me.
00:40:18Right now, I feel like I would have regrets and I wouldn't know completely if we could have made it
00:40:23work.
00:40:24Like I was prepared to take on anything you guys had to say and try and put it into work.
00:40:38Well, as you know, in this experiment, the rules are if one person says stay and the other person says
00:40:43leave,
00:40:44the couple stays for another week and they work on the relationship.
00:40:49It might seem like a lost cause, but frankly, we see couples absolutely turn things around in one week.
00:41:01But it will require some heavy lifting from the both of you.
00:41:10I mean, the one thing about you two right now is that it's not friendly.
00:41:14So when you think about how you're going to take on this week to start talking to one another in
00:41:20a respectful way and acting in a considerate way.
00:41:23And from there, you can start to see how it changes your relationship.
00:41:30Let me remind you it was only a week ago that you were loved up on that couch, excited about
00:41:35the future.
00:41:40But with a weenus can come change.
00:41:45And all you've got to do is treat each other in a friendly way.
00:41:52All right.
00:41:53Thank you both.
00:41:55Good work tonight.
00:41:56Well done.
00:41:56That was hard.
00:42:04Well done, darlings.
00:42:09Well done, guys.
00:42:15I just want to go.
00:42:21Okay, our next couple on the couch, Alyssa and David.
00:42:29Hello, you two.
00:42:33How was feedback week for you guys?
00:42:37So obviously, feedback week started with some receipts from Juliet.
00:42:41Um, from last couch session that we had, that was the start of our feedback week, which was kind of
00:42:48negative.
00:42:49You hear about, oh, just some messages, but they were actually really vicious.
00:42:54Yeah, it wasn't okay, it was, it definitely was a fresh, it was fresh hurt for David and I.
00:43:00Yeah, look, um, seeing those text messages just reopened wounds that were obviously closing over.
00:43:08Obviously, it was a negative vibe to feedback week.
00:43:11We didn't want to see that, but it came to us.
00:43:13So, yeah, um, yeah, moving on from that.
00:43:18Feedback week actually went really well, because we managed to talk about, um, something.
00:43:24Yeah, we talked about a plan for when we left the experiment, what that was going to look like,
00:43:28you know, a bit of long distance maybe, and then, uh, figure out, like, if we're moving to maybe Adelaide.
00:43:36It's obviously, you know, getting to an age in the next couple of years, I want to have a family.
00:43:42And I want to be in Adelaide for that.
00:43:45And that was something that I hadn't talked to David about, but he was amazing.
00:43:49He was like, I understand if you need to be with your family and you need extra support, then we're
00:43:53going to move to Adelaide.
00:43:54And I understand raising kids is not an easy task.
00:43:57So, you know, she's obviously got her family there, her mom, and her mom's a legend.
00:44:03Alyssa would be a fantastic mother. She notices everything about me, you know what I'm saying?
00:44:07Like, she, she helps me a lot.
00:44:10I did say, though, I did say, I did say, though, she reminds me of my mother.
00:44:16She might be like, don't wear that shirt. It doesn't, like, it doesn't look good on you.
00:44:20Like, just straight to the point and direct.
00:44:22Honest!
00:44:22That's what my mother would do. So, that's what makes me know that she's got deep feelings and she cares,
00:44:27because, like, she tells me things that challenge me, you know, and she doesn't just settle.
00:44:32Like, she's always looking to grow. She brings out the best in me as well.
00:44:35And I think that's someone I need in my life, someone who's always going to push me to be better.
00:44:40Hmm. So, you're in a good place, guys.
00:44:43I feel like we're, we're the strongest we've ever been.
00:44:47Yeah, I would agree.
00:44:48Like, right now, we are.
00:44:49Yeah, that's great.
00:44:51Brilliant. Let's go to the decision.
00:44:54Alyssa, what'll it be?
00:44:55Well, obviously, we've got an exciting week coming up.
00:44:58Mm-hmm.
00:44:59Homestay.
00:44:59Homestay.
00:45:00Well, I'm about to convince you that you might like Adelaide, so...
00:45:05Stay.
00:45:05What do you want to say?
00:45:06Fabulous.
00:45:07Show you around.
00:45:11So, I wrote, stay. I go to Little Plains.
00:45:14Oh!
00:45:15Oh, you're getting adventurous.
00:45:17Take me home, baby.
00:45:18Yep.
00:45:19I love it.
00:45:19Ready to go.
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:21There has been some really tough times for you guys, and you've just turned toward each other,
00:45:28backed each other, and supported each other like a real team.
00:45:32Thanks, guys.
00:45:34Well done.
00:45:43Coming up...
00:45:45Frankly, when I watch you on the couch, you seem uncomfortable.
00:45:49The experts apply the pressure to Danny.
00:45:52If you could do it over again, how would you answer it?
00:45:56I'd just say yes.
00:45:58Yes what?
00:45:59I could see myself all in love with you.
00:46:01Yeah.
00:46:01That's as simple as that.
00:46:03And would that be the truth?
00:46:19Our next couple up on the couch...
00:46:23Philip and Stella.
00:46:28Hello.
00:46:29Hello.
00:46:30Hello, hello.
00:46:30Hi.
00:46:31Welcome.
00:46:33Last week was a little bit tough for you two on the couch.
00:46:38I see such a different energy just walking up to the couch.
00:46:44I really want to thank Mel for her advice.
00:46:47The focus on the emotional safety that he's providing and giving me.
00:46:51And it's such a simple thing when you think, but I didn't think about it.
00:46:55And that was just like a penny drop moment for me.
00:46:58I really want to thank you guys, because I think if not the confinements of the experiment,
00:47:03probably would be a different story at the end of the day.
00:47:06So, yeah, thank you.
00:47:08It's these uncomfortable chats that need to happen.
00:47:11It's not you having a go.
00:47:12It's just...
00:47:12Yeah.
00:47:13Yeah.
00:47:13It helps.
00:47:14It helped us this week.
00:47:15Tremendously.
00:47:16Yeah.
00:47:17Yeah.
00:47:17Great to hear.
00:47:17We ended up having a good week.
00:47:19Like, she was a lot more gentler.
00:47:21Like, you know, coming and leading with kindness.
00:47:23She's just been a little bit more gentle, just with her delivery.
00:47:26I can see sometimes she's just...
00:47:27As she sometimes starts talking, she'll just stop and then she'll just go a little bit softer.
00:47:32Just things like that, you know.
00:47:33And just little subtle differences that you can tell.
00:47:35Yeah.
00:47:36Like, yeah, don't get me wrong, Stella's still stellar.
00:47:38But, you know, but she's a little bit...
00:47:40Yeah, moving on.
00:47:41A little bit different energy.
00:47:42And we actually had a really, really good week.
00:47:45And go ask the question of, like, alright, if we go outside the experiment, how quick would
00:47:48you expect, like, a proposal or something like that, just to, like, fully escalate things?
00:47:53You know, you're just asking randomly.
00:47:54Just throw it out there.
00:47:55It's a free question.
00:47:57That's it.
00:47:58Six to 12 months and Stella was just, like, ASAP.
00:48:02So it's just kind of like...
00:48:02I said the sooner the better.
00:48:04Wow.
00:48:07Sometimes I thought that, like, I was fully over-invested and I was showing too much because
00:48:11that's a general trade of mine.
00:48:12I just go all in, you know.
00:48:14I show all my cards.
00:48:15Here they are, you know.
00:48:16I never really hold back.
00:48:17That's kind of like a trade of mine.
00:48:19But it was good to get the reassurance.
00:48:21But yeah, we...
00:48:22Can I just point out something that's quite stark for you, Stella?
00:48:27Last week, you were essentially pushing him away and creating that space.
00:48:32And this week, you're saying you want a real-life proposal ASAP.
00:48:37Well, let's put it that way.
00:48:38I didn't say I would like a proposal.
00:48:40That was a free question.
00:48:41Let's clarify.
00:48:42And I got really shy.
00:48:44I got really uncomfortable.
00:48:45And I said the sooner the better, you know.
00:48:47The sooner the better.
00:48:48Yeah, so...
00:48:48But still, the stark contrast, I guess, from last week.
00:48:51How does that feel from your perspective?
00:48:53Yeah, I'm trying to make sense of it.
00:48:56It's going to be confusing.
00:48:57No, it's going to not be crazy.
00:48:58But it's just, it's extreme.
00:48:59Can't really give up.
00:49:00It's extreme.
00:49:01And it has an emotional impact.
00:49:03Nah, it's good.
00:49:03I'm just wondering how that feels for you.
00:49:05It's good.
00:49:05It shows that she's forward-thinking.
00:49:08She sees me in her future.
00:49:09And that she's like the real deal, you know.
00:49:11When you think about the future,
00:49:13is this something that you can see for the two of you?
00:49:16Yeah, yeah, definitely.
00:49:17Most definitely.
00:49:18So, yeah, pretty, pretty confident.
00:49:22It's interesting tonight that the first thing I noticed
00:49:25was the way you looked at him again.
00:49:26Oh, yeah, I'm in love again.
00:49:29Because you were back into that sort of starry-eyed interaction
00:49:32where you gaze at him in extended ways.
00:49:37Oh, you're going to make me cry.
00:49:40We lost that last week.
00:49:42Yeah.
00:49:43I would say I just fell back into my feelings, into my body,
00:49:47into showing up for myself and then showing up for him.
00:49:49Because if I don't show up for myself, I can't show up for him.
00:49:52Yeah.
00:49:52And that's the main difference.
00:49:54And ultimately, I think you had to get out of your head
00:49:57and into your heart, which is ultimately
00:50:00what we were trying to get you to do.
00:50:03All right, well, with that being the case,
00:50:05let's go to the decision, stay or leave.
00:50:07The decision is very simple and being back into my heart.
00:50:12Another beautiful stay.
00:50:14Excellent.
00:50:14Look at that, eh?
00:50:15Perfect.
00:50:16Love it.
00:50:17And fill it.
00:50:18It's a stay.
00:50:20It's a strong stay.
00:50:22It's a strong stay.
00:50:23It's a strong stay.
00:50:24It's a strong stay.
00:50:24It's a strong stay.
00:50:25Well, thank you.
00:50:26We really, I personally really appreciate the advices
00:50:28that you guys gave.
00:50:29Good work.
00:50:31Will do.
00:50:32Thanks again.
00:50:33Ciao.
00:50:41And our final couple up on the couch,
00:50:44Beck and Danny.
00:50:46Ooh, I'm scared.
00:50:55Right.
00:50:56Feedback week.
00:50:57How was it?
00:50:59Do you want to, you talk?
00:51:00I'll talk.
00:51:00It's been good.
00:51:01It was challenging to begin with.
00:51:03But it ended really, really well.
00:51:06Why was it challenging?
00:51:10So, obviously, like, I told Danny that I'm in love with him.
00:51:15The last commitment ceremony.
00:51:16You certainly did.
00:51:19It's how I feel, so I'm going to say it.
00:51:24And I meant it.
00:51:27But when we sort of did the questions,
00:51:29there was one question that came up was,
00:51:31can you see yourself falling in love with me?
00:51:35And Danny didn't say no, but he sort of umdenied a little bit
00:51:38and I just spiralled.
00:51:42So, what was his exact answer?
00:51:46Uh, potentially, yes, I assume so.
00:51:49Oh, no.
00:51:51So, how did that feel?
00:51:53Um, I was upset.
00:51:54I was hurt and I was kind of embarrassed.
00:52:01I thought that he would have said,
00:52:05no, I'm not there yet, but yes.
00:52:07I just thought that it, that he would be a little bit further along
00:52:12than potentially, yes, I assume so.
00:52:14But I need to allow Daniel to be on his journey
00:52:20in this relationship and I'll be on mine and don't regret it.
00:52:24Be me.
00:52:27I'm in love.
00:52:29He's not there yet.
00:52:30Don't allow that fact to ruin how good it feels for me.
00:52:44Danny.
00:52:48Let's go to that discussion, shall we?
00:52:50And when the question got asked,
00:52:52tell us again what you said and then why you said it.
00:52:58Well, the question's asked sometimes I struggle with, to be honest.
00:53:02I think I misinterpreted the question.
00:53:07But the question, what was it like?
00:53:09It was a bit...
00:53:10Could you see yourself falling in love with me?
00:53:13Because it's a pretty black and white question.
00:53:26If you want to know what I looked like 12 months ago, this is it.
00:53:29This is the last time I went surfing.
00:53:32Basically, it was overhead height, but I realised the surf's a bit beyond my level.
00:53:36I tried pulling off the wave.
00:53:37I could see a sand bank and I went straight down head first onto my fin.
00:53:43I was surprised I came out alive, to be honest.
00:53:47Surfing is a beautiful thing, but honestly, I've just been too scared to get back out there.
00:53:51I remember you were walking up and I don't know if it was that you could see the blood or
00:53:56something,
00:53:56but you started running.
00:53:57Well, I got closer and the dude said to me, I was like, what'd she do?
00:54:00And he's like, dude, she has the most gnarly fin chop I've ever seen.
00:54:0419 stitches. Honestly, I looked like Harry Potter.
00:54:07The doctors in hospital said, you cannot have a knock like this again.
00:54:11The concussion you had, next time it won't be okay.
00:54:18Fear for me in gymnastics actually ended up stopping me.
00:54:21I would pull out of skills where you, like, think you're going to commit.
00:54:24You say to yourself, like, I can do this.
00:54:27And in the middle, you're like, I'm too scared.
00:54:29And you literally land on your head.
00:54:31Like, you're actually hurting yourself, but you're not trying to hurt yourself.
00:54:36And I was getting severely injured daily.
00:54:38I saw sports psychologists, and no matter what they said, I couldn't stop.
00:54:42That was a mental challenge I couldn't overcome.
00:54:44And so I knew gymnastics was going to be taken away from me.
00:54:47I learned to accept it in gymnastics, but, like, I'm not accepting this in surf.
00:54:52I have a background in fitness coaching, counselling.
00:54:54I'm always trying to show to people, you can do anything.
00:54:56And so it's a little bit like your imposter,
00:54:59because there's one part of you that you can't get past, but you'd expect that from others.
00:55:04I'm a go-getter.
00:55:05I don't let anything stop me.
00:55:06And this is the one thing that's stopping me.
00:55:09So if I can do this today, I can get back on that path.
00:55:14But yeah, I am a bit nervous.
00:55:20I feel incredibly apprehensive.
00:55:23The fluttering chest is not stopping, and I'm just hoping that today's going to be okay.
00:55:30The worst thing that can happen is a redo of last year.
00:55:34And that better not happen today.
00:55:37My confidence can't.
00:55:38My confidence can't handle it.
00:55:41I can't have another crash like that.
00:55:43Like, it really, really impacted my confidence.
00:55:48And that's not like me.
00:55:50Like, I'm known as a person that's a go-getter and doesn't stop and doesn't let fear stop them.
00:55:54So I can't have a knock like that again.
00:55:58I'm really scared.
00:56:00I just don't want to be near people.
00:56:03Because people see me as this confident person.
00:56:05They don't get...
00:56:07I am petrified.
00:56:19I think I misinterpreted the question.
00:56:24But the question, what was it, like, it was a bit...
00:56:26Could you see yourself falling in love with me?
00:56:29Because it's a pretty black and white question.
00:56:39From my point of view, I don't feel, as a man, like, if I give back my word on something,
00:56:47I'm always going to stand to that.
00:56:50And I don't think saying, yes, I can 100% fall in love with you would be the right thing
00:56:56to say,
00:56:57because it's almost making a promise, which I don't think you can promise that before you're in love with someone.
00:57:04But let's just remind ourselves, the question wasn't, do you promise that you will fall in love with me?
00:57:11Yeah, I know, John, 100%.
00:57:12It was, can you see yourself falling in love with me?
00:57:18Yeah, and do you know what?
00:57:20Like, I can't sit here and make excuses.
00:57:22I just answered the question shockingly.
00:57:25You know what I mean?
00:57:28It was a mistake.
00:57:29I made a mistake.
00:57:30I'm only human.
00:57:32Like, I didn't, I didn't mean to make Bec feel like that.
00:57:35It wasn't my intention.
00:57:38When, when we revisited it, I, um, yeah, we talked about it.
00:57:45And we patched it up, you know?
00:57:50Um, yeah, I just, I made a mistake.
00:57:54It's all right, baby.
00:57:58Danny, I've got a question, because I'm curious.
00:58:02Frankly, when I watch you on the couch, you seem uncomfortable.
00:58:09I do find this uncomfortable, to be honest.
00:58:11It's not something I'm good at.
00:58:12What's uncomfortable about it?
00:58:14Just sitting here talking about your feelings.
00:58:17I turn up and do it, because obviously it's more for Bec.
00:58:21If I had it my way, I wouldn't be here, no chance.
00:58:24But we need this, babe.
00:58:25But is it more for Bec?
00:58:29A hundred percent.
00:58:33Like, a lot of blokes do things they don't want to do, because of their-
00:58:36Hold on a second, doll.
00:58:37One second, babe.
00:58:39Adore you so much.
00:58:41I love you, actually.
00:58:43But this is not all for me, doll.
00:58:46No, I know that they're like-
00:58:47You're being, you're, they're helping you too.
00:58:49Trust me.
00:58:52These couch sessions are not just for Bec.
00:58:54You signed up to the experiment on your own.
00:58:58Saying that you wanted to break some patterns.
00:59:01So this is the chance for you to do that.
00:59:03And that's your part where you have to rise to the occasion and choose to do that with enthusiasm.
00:59:10Enthusiasm.
00:59:12Thanks, Alessandra.
00:59:12You're welcome.
00:59:13No, but it's true.
00:59:14You want your partner to want to.
00:59:17And that's the game changer.
00:59:18When somebody really wants to be there for you and chooses to make you a priority day in and day
00:59:24out,
00:59:24wow, that's the game changer.
00:59:26It would be for you.
00:59:28It certainly will be for Bec.
00:59:33And what you know now is when you're particularly talking about commitment, future, feelings,
00:59:41you do have to choose your words very carefully.
00:59:46You do indeed.
00:59:49If you could do it over again, how would you answer it?
00:59:52I'd just say yes.
00:59:56Yes what?
00:59:57I could see myself all in love with you.
00:59:59Yeah, that's as simple as that.
01:00:02And would that be the truth?
01:00:06Of course, I wouldn't say it if it wasn't the truth, so yeah.
01:00:11I just answered it wrong.
01:00:13That was my answer.
01:00:16I think the best thing with Daniel and I, and I've learned, is that, you know,
01:00:21we always come out better and stronger.
01:00:24Because now, moving forward, we're in this together.
01:00:27And it makes me feel like I'm not going to get hurt.
01:00:33It means so much.
01:00:35And like, for example, he planned this date and I walked into our apartment and there was candles
01:00:41lit everywhere.
01:00:42And all over the apartment was post-it notes telling me how he felt about me.
01:00:50So he's learning, guys.
01:00:52He's learning from me.
01:00:52I'm not all bad, am I?
01:00:54And then we went up and he asked me to be his girlfriend.
01:01:02I know you're married, but what inspired you to ask Bec that question?
01:01:07Uh, I'm trying to think.
01:01:10Like, it was important to Bec, you know, because, like, obviously...
01:01:14Why was it important to you?
01:01:22Um...
01:01:22Well, because it gives Bec security.
01:01:26But why is it important to you, Danny?
01:01:31Well, I'm married to Bec.
01:01:32Do you know what you mean?
01:01:33So it's like, but, but, like, I think it, it was more...
01:01:41Um, yeah, I think Bec just wanted that added security that, like, do you...
01:01:45But why was it important to you to ask her that?
01:02:06Um, yeah, I think Bec just wanted that added security that, like, do you...
01:02:11But why was it important to you to ask her that?
01:02:23Because I know it'd be special to Bec.
01:02:27But why was it important to you?
01:02:37Um, well, because I wanted to be my girlfriend, like, you know?
01:02:45Um, yeah, that's, that's why I'd done it.
01:02:49Cute.
01:02:56How did it feel?
01:02:58So good.
01:03:03It's really special to me.
01:03:08All right, well, on that note, we're going to go to a decision.
01:03:10Bec.
01:03:12I wrote stay, and then I wrote boyfriend, hee-he.
01:03:15Oh.
01:03:18Cheers.
01:03:19Boyfriend.
01:03:21Danny.
01:03:23Leave, can you imagine?
01:03:25Yeah.
01:03:26So I've just done a cheeky stay.
01:03:30That's lovely.
01:03:31Where's the love part this week?
01:03:32It was in a rush.
01:03:33Oh, okay.
01:03:36This week, I think, for you, Danny, clearly and plainly,
01:03:43let her know how you feel about her.
01:03:46Everything that you wrote on those post-it notes,
01:03:49translate that into your verbal communication with her this week,
01:03:52because it worked.
01:03:53It should be the best week of my life.
01:03:58You got a big thumbs up for that, so do more of that.
01:04:01Make her that priority.
01:04:08Thank you both.
01:04:09Thanks so much.
01:04:10Appreciate you.
01:04:30Tomorrow night.
01:04:32The experiment goes across the country.
01:04:35Welcome home.
01:04:37Wow.
01:04:39Homestays week has arrived.
01:04:41Over two big nights, our couples get a glimpse of what married life will look like
01:04:47beyond the experiment.
01:04:49Whoa, passenger princess.
01:04:52Stephen set sail on an exciting new future with Rachel.
01:04:56This is such a special place for him.
01:04:58How lucky am I for him to have welcomed me into this?
01:05:01I kind of like holding a rod and getting kissed.
01:05:04Oh, hang on.
01:05:07My vibes on the wedding day weren't really positive.
01:05:11And I'm here to protect her.
01:05:12Stella's outspoken guests from her wedding day are back.
01:05:16So like, I've bought information.
01:05:18Sorry to interrupt you.
01:05:19I'm getting some not so confident vibes from over here.
01:05:23And then, Scott shows off to Gia his waterside home.
01:05:29Oh, it's a bit messy.
01:05:30So random.
01:05:32Weird.
01:05:33This wouldn't be big enough.
01:05:34It'd be better if that wasn't there.
01:05:35Is Gia the most high maintenance house guest Scott's ever seen?
01:05:40Um, my house is way cleaner.
01:05:43Yeah, I couldn't, I couldn't live here.
01:05:44If the roles were reversed and I was at Gia's house,
01:05:46I wouldn't say anything but nice things.
