00:00:00At the final commitment ceremony...
00:00:02I have to leave.
00:00:04Leave.
00:00:05Sam and Chris went their separate ways.
00:00:08He's moving in.
00:00:09Oh, that's a plan.
00:00:11Stella and Phillip announced their exciting news...
00:00:14You've come up with a plan and now you're on the same track.
00:00:17Because I want this relationship to work.
00:00:20Can I just say, Steve-o, you've got a bit of a swagger.
00:00:22A positive homestay saw Stephen's confidence grow.
00:00:26It's changed the relationship in many ways.
00:00:28As he and a loved-up Rachel revelled in their remarkable progress.
00:00:33I feel like I can see myself falling in love with Rachel.
00:00:37Stay.
00:00:38Despite both agreeing to go to final vows,
00:00:41Bec pleaded with Danny for a stronger commitment.
00:00:44I need you to give me half of what I'm giving you at least.
00:00:49What I'm seeing here is fake.
00:00:52You're petrified of Gia and you're not answering the questions.
00:00:56Scott finally came clean on the crisis in his marriage.
00:01:00I feel like there's a bit of pressure of me to say I'm in love.
00:01:02And when I don't say it, Gia will tend to say things like,
00:01:06You're a crumb, you're not a man, you're not a provider.
00:01:09Pretty much every name under the sun.
00:01:10Every name under the sun is wild.
00:01:12FG out.
00:01:15And then, do you feel like you're enough for Alyssa?
00:01:18It was the shock confession that no one saw coming.
00:01:22You did mention I was a weak man.
00:01:24She called you a weak man?
00:01:26Yeah.
00:01:28So that's a problem.
00:01:37It's the early hours of the morning after the final commitment ceremony of the experiment.
00:01:45And one of our strongest couples is wide awake.
00:02:04David's decision last night to open up about his marital concerns hasn't landed well with wife Alyssa.
00:02:13How are you feeling?
00:02:14I know last night was a lot.
00:02:17Obviously, I know you're upset.
00:02:19But, you know, I...
00:02:21I was right this whole time.
00:02:24Something was missing.
00:02:26I feel like you have been holding back certain things and we haven't been challenging each other.
00:02:31And then last night on the couch, you blindsided me.
00:02:37You've been bottling up stuff and you haven't spoken about your needs, how you feel, for the last eight weeks.
00:02:44And I'm just like, do I even know this person?
00:02:50I'm not in a good frame of mind right now with this whole relationship.
00:02:55Like, I'm feeling just blindsided.
00:02:58Last night is a build-up of things that we have.
00:03:00I gave him so many opportunities to chat about.
00:03:03All in this apartment.
00:03:04You know, day to day.
00:03:05And he hasn't spoken.
00:03:07He's brushed it all under the carpet.
00:03:09I challenge you all the time, but I feel like you don't challenge me back.
00:03:13And...
00:03:13I want to know you.
00:03:14I want to hear you.
00:03:15I want to...
00:03:16I want to know your thoughts.
00:03:18I feel like we've missed the mark.
00:03:19We could have been having productive conversations.
00:03:21We could have been, you know, talking about deeper things.
00:03:24It's always, yes, darling, yes, darling.
00:03:26And that's not strong.
00:03:28I need a strong man.
00:03:30You know, I...
00:03:30Babe.
00:03:31You know, I...
00:03:32This is, like, scary.
00:03:33We're about to go into final vows.
00:03:35We're about to go into the real world, babe.
00:03:39Since the commitment ceremony, it has been very intense.
00:03:44Probably the tensest I've felt in my relationship with Alyssa so far.
00:03:48I got to speak my honest truth.
00:03:50Yeah.
00:03:51And that's the outpouring that happened on the couch.
00:03:54But I didn't mean to hurt her.
00:03:55And I just want to have a voice.
00:03:58I didn't come from a place of wanting to throw you under the bus.
00:04:02And I acknowledge that it...
00:04:03But it doesn't even matter, babe.
00:04:04I was just blindsided.
00:04:05I was just like...
00:04:06Like you rightfully said, you felt blindsided.
00:04:08Because you don't talk to me.
00:04:10And for me...
00:04:11You don't talk to me.
00:04:12I need you to talk to me.
00:04:13I felt like...
00:04:14I just...
00:04:14To me, it doesn't make sense.
00:04:16I've got a lot to say.
00:04:17I've got a lot to say.
00:04:18Hey.
00:04:18There's multiple times.
00:04:20I never, ever, like, tread on you.
00:04:22You know, where I've honestly felt that I was shot then.
00:04:25Do you know what else really upset me?
00:04:27You've never spoken to me about those things.
00:04:29Let me just allow...
00:04:29And then you didn't speak up.
00:04:30From the bottom of my heart.
00:04:31Yeah, but babe.
00:04:32I failed when I did.
00:04:33Why don't you speak up?
00:04:34When I...
00:04:34You need to speak up.
00:04:35You have a voice.
00:04:36You have needs.
00:04:44Right now, I'm just...
00:04:45I am...
00:04:47So, like, just devastated.
00:04:49Because I'm feeling like this is just shit to end this experiment like this.
00:04:53And I understand how you feel.
00:04:55That, um...
00:04:56I've swept things under the rug sometimes because I didn't want to upset.
00:04:59And it didn't come from a place of me not wanting.
00:05:02It's because I want this more than ever.
00:05:03And I know that I have shot myself in the foot.
00:05:05But I want to fight for us.
00:05:07And I want to move as a team.
00:05:08I want to be strong with you.
00:05:10And I have Conor about it the wrong way.
00:05:19You're so brilliant, given who you turned your opinion into you.
00:05:23I'm just, I just need a minute.
00:05:26I just need a minute.
00:05:38I just need a minute.
00:05:53It's the final week of the 2026 Married at First Sight experiment, and with the last
00:06:02commitment ceremony behind them, and final vows just days away, the experiment's most
00:06:11tumultuous couple have decided to put their best foot forward and have turned over a new leaf.
00:06:24Chills! Love you. Love you. F*** these men, man. Literally f*** them.
00:06:30Did you ever see it? Bec and I have had our differences in this experiment. We've hated
00:06:34each other, loved each other, hated each other. It's been like a back and forth, but I feel
00:06:38like right now we relate to each other more than we ever have. Seeing her couch session,
00:06:43like, preach. Both of us feel like we're in love with these men, and we're not getting
00:06:48the same back. I mean, last night, Scott threw me under the bus. He said, you've called me
00:06:53every name under the sun. So, I saw her in the elevator. I feel like it was the universe
00:06:57being like, you guys should talk, and have a couple of wines, forgetting about the men
00:07:02for a bit. We're on the same page. We've got these men who are boys. Sorry, I'm going to
00:07:08say it. They're acting like boys. Yep.
00:07:11Jaya and I have come together today because after last night's commitment ceremony, Jaya
00:07:16and I both feel underappreciated by our husbands. We may have had beef in the past, but when it
00:07:22comes down to it, women need to support women. Cheers to us. Cheers, babe. Cheers. To the
00:07:28women in this experiment and these half-arsed men. Meanwhile, back at the apartments...
00:07:35Has she texted her today? No, I haven't spoken to her. How's that a f***ing relationship?
00:07:41Jaya has left husband Scott in the dark about her whereabouts.
00:07:46So, last night at commitment ceremony, I felt like I had my peace. I got to finally speak
00:07:54on how I feel. And then I knew what was going to happen after. As soon as I come home,
00:07:59I
00:08:00sat on the bench. She started saying to me, why did you throw me under the bus? Why this?
00:08:04Why that? And then she says, I don't trust you. And then I woke up. She went and got coffee
00:08:12for me for the first time. I said, thank you. And then we haven't spoken since. She's just
00:08:16gone walking. I want to fix that relationship. I want it to work because I adore her so much.
00:08:20But she can't accept a commitment ceremony. She can't accept feedback.
00:08:24And she's constantly walking out on a tough situation.
00:08:28Where are you going? I'm going. I'm done with the experiment, man.
00:08:32No, I'm out. I'm out. I want to go home.
00:08:40How am I supposed to fall in love with someone that wants to run away?
00:08:45What's going on with Scott?
00:08:47Um, it's a train wreck, to be honest. Yeah. So, obviously, commitment ceremony last night
00:08:52was a bit . He kind of threw me out of the bus.
00:08:54He threw me out of the bus, yeah.
00:08:55He held my hand, then walked me into the lion's den, and he says he's on eggshells.
00:09:00He exaggerated a lot last night, some of the things he said. I haven't heard any of this till now.
00:09:06I'm so confused because there's so many opportunities to bring that up, but he hasn't.
00:09:10He's being a pussy. Yeah.
00:09:13Do you know what? We lay our souls out on the table. Right.
00:09:16And you told him you loved him. I told Danny that I love him, but I haven't said it back.
00:09:22And this is the thing, with Scott in particular, he's like, oh, well, when we have an argument,
00:09:26it pushes me back. Or when we have this, every track. Sorry if I have an opinion,
00:09:30you want a robot. We cook, we clean, we look after our men. Yeah.
00:09:34But I expect my man to be there, looking after me, adoring me. Right.
00:09:41And I've never said anything about Daniel and our sex life, right? But, like, once a week
00:09:47isn't something that I'm into. Yeah, yeah.
00:09:49I'm, like, five times a week. But, like, you don't want to be intimate with me. You're not into me.
00:09:56Okay. As Bec and Gia continue to show each other support, Bec's husband Danny has also
00:10:03been spending the day alone. I got up this morning, went to the gym. When I got back,
00:10:08the bed was empty and Bec was gone. I phoned her straight away just to check that she was okay,
00:10:13because, obviously, last night was a rough night. Then I get a message and she said,
00:10:17she was at the pub with Gia. It actually blows my mind. Obviously, it's been a lot of animosity
00:10:25between Bec and Gia. It is mind-boggling, to be honest. You're going to turn around to someone
00:10:32who's lied about you, who's involved in all the drama, who's lied about me in the past.
00:10:39I can't even wrap my head around that. You know, I woke up really positive, in a good mood,
00:10:45and I wanted to try and take our relationship to a better spot and try and, you know, really do
00:10:50what
00:10:50the experts have told me. But it's impossible when your partner's in the pub with Gia.
00:10:57Do you know what? These men are little bitches. I'm sorry. They're intimidated by strong women.
00:11:03Yeah. David's like, I haven't had a voice. I can't speak. And this is so scary.
00:11:09Yeah. Daniel. Yeah.
00:11:11Well, I'm like this. Scott, I feel like I'm walking on eggshells. I can't do this. Scott, shut up.
00:11:17What, you're intimidated by strong women? Is that what it is? I don't get it.
00:11:22Or are you weak men?
00:11:26You know what? I just really want this to work. And it frustrates me because I just feel like it
00:11:32can be fixable. We are a good couple. We are actually really good when we're good. But the
00:11:41fact we can't get through this part, I feel like for the first time she's fallen for someone quicker
00:11:46than the other person, and she doesn't like it. So she doesn't know how to respond. So her response
00:11:50is to defend herself and attack me. I wish I could just speak to her right now, and I just
00:11:55can't.
00:11:56Because who knows where she's gone.
00:11:59I feel like we are 100% giving everything and all to these relationships. I feel like we've both
00:12:06put our hearts on the line. We've said we love them. And I feel like these men are not giving
00:12:11it
00:12:11back. And I'm sorry, I'm going to sit here and say it. Neither of them are that hot. Daniel's not
00:12:17that hot.
00:12:17It looks like a frog. Scott's not that hot. You've got a pointy nose. Brother,
00:12:22why do you think that you're that hot?
00:12:26We've both told these men that we love them. Subpar men, right? You should be so lucky that you have
00:12:32a
00:12:32woman like me and a woman like Gia wanting to love you. Do you know what? Find another person like
00:12:38us.
00:12:38I dare you. Yeah. Good luck. We both love these men. We don't feel the same energy as being
00:12:44reciprocated. And we're feeling like this, I don't know, this feeling of like not being good enough.
00:12:50And it's very hard. Like, how are we supposed to go into final vows with this uncertainty? At the
00:12:56end of the day, we're just two women wanting love. Yeah. And right now we're in a situation
00:13:02where both of our husbands are duds. But we found each other. I'm actually glad this has happened.
00:13:07Cheers. Three, two cheers, babes. Ah.
00:13:18Tonight. What is going on here? Chanel. Shannon. Oh, no. What? James. Antoni. Oh, my God. What?
00:13:28What? During the matchmaking process, there was more than one person that our participants were
00:13:33compatible with. The unforgettable final test is back. Oh, my God. It is the ultimate test
00:13:40of trust and security. And this season, the experts have upped the ante like never before.
00:13:47We are removing the element of choice from the final test. Over two incredible nights.
00:13:53I feel sick. I feel like I'm going to pass out. All our participants will make their alternative matches.
00:14:01I only date men that pay for money. Get married then. Some will more than enjoy the fresh perspective.
00:14:08Why do I always get the young ones? I like it.
00:14:12You've got to stop touching me because if my wife sees this, she's going to go. No.
00:14:17Before
00:14:20the biggest twist
00:14:23the experiment's ever seen.
00:14:26It's the grass greener.
00:14:28Are you serious?
00:14:30That is disgusting. Oh, s***.
00:14:44Our couples are one morning closer to the final vows.
00:14:48But for groom Scott, a future with Gia is looking less than bright.
00:14:54As last night, he chose to sleep in a separate apartment for the very first time in the experiment.
00:15:01I just need to clear my head because I'm pretty not in a good space at the moment.
00:15:08Yesterday, Gia just disappeared.
00:15:11Later on, I received a phone call.
00:15:13Gia said to me, she's gone to the pub alone.
00:15:16But in the background, I could hear Bec calling me some pretty nasty names.
00:15:21I don't even know what to say.
00:15:23Bec is the last person I would expect her to see for this whole experiment.
00:15:27Bec's completely, you know, thrown Gia under the bus.
00:15:30She's used her. She's manipulated her.
00:15:32That's not a friend.
00:15:33I wanted to fix our relationship, but instead I found out Gia was s*** with Bec.
00:15:40Like, that makes me feel defeated. Like, you don't care.
00:15:51How are you this morning?
00:15:58How are you?
00:16:06Um, I've been better. I don't know. I feel like after we spoke yesterday,
00:16:12um, you know, I said I needed space and I, like, went for a walk and all that.
00:16:18That was it. I just did my own thing.
00:16:25Gia, you were at the pub with Bec.
00:16:30This is the thing, Gia. When I was at the gym, you called me and said we need to have
00:16:33a chat
00:16:33and I said, who are you with? You said no one.
00:16:36I heard Bec. You lied to me. I f***ing heard her.
00:16:44So I did. I went and had a drink. Sometimes I want to have a glass of wine and I
00:16:48feel like I
00:16:49can't around you because you don't like girls that drink and you don't like...
00:16:52I never said I don't like girls that drink.
00:16:53You don't, you don't like it. I know you don't like it.
00:16:55I don't care if you drink, Gia.
00:16:57So anyways, I, that's what I did yesterday, okay?
00:17:01Yeah, I let loose yesterday. I felt like I had a lot of things bottled up that I needed to
00:17:05let go of,
00:17:06so sue me for being emotional.
00:17:09Bec, out of all people, is the last person that I want my wife hanging out with.
00:17:15I don't believe anything she says.
00:17:17I don't trust her and I've stuck by that this whole time because of what she's done to you.
00:17:22Because I care about you.
00:17:24I just don't understand why, out of all people, her when, like, I just...
00:17:29Yeah, I understand that it's confusing and I understand...
00:17:31She's the worst person to hang out with in this situation.
00:17:33I know, but I have no friends left in this experiment.
00:17:36Chris left yesterday.
00:17:38We weren't good and I, I was really upset.
00:17:41She was upset.
00:17:43So yeah, it was a perfect opportunity to be honest.
00:17:45She was f***ed, I was f***ed.
00:17:47Let's have a drink.
00:17:48We didn't even really talk about you guys.
00:17:54To be honest, I feel like you just want me to look bad all the time.
00:17:57Oh my God, I just...
00:18:02I've got you to understand what happened yesterday does not make me feel good.
00:18:12Gia, please, Gia, listen to me.
00:18:14I want to let this out on the table because I want a resolution here.
00:18:18Last night I was on tipping point.
00:18:19I didn't want to be here anymore.
00:18:20I literally wanted to leave.
00:18:27Why didn't you?
00:18:28Because I was starting to get emotional.
00:18:30I want to be with you and I want to sort it out.
00:18:31And I want to know what the f*** is going on.
00:18:33Like, I just don't understand.
00:18:35I just...
00:18:38It's not worth running away, but I know that we can fix it.
00:18:43I want to fall in love with you, but then these spirals happen and I don't know what to do.
00:18:54It really hurts me to see Scott upset like that.
00:18:57He is really hurting.
00:19:00And yeah, I don't like seeing him like that.
00:19:02And I don't want to be the cause of it either.
00:19:05Like, I know it's bad.
00:19:09Like, I understand what I've done and the things that I do that you don't like.
00:19:14The spiralling and running away.
00:19:17I understand, like, it's not okay.
00:19:21I understand that.
00:19:24I'm really sorry.
00:19:26I have accepted your apology before and I'm accepting your apology again.
00:19:31I want this to work.
00:19:32I want to be with you.
00:19:33I want to leave this experience with you.
00:19:34But I'm not going to have this happen again and again and again and again.
00:19:38I don't want it to happen anymore because this is my last time I'm going to try.
00:20:10I'm really hurting.
00:20:11I don't want to be with you.
00:20:31This morning, Bec is feeling regretful after yesterday's emotionally charged catch up with new friend, Gia.
00:20:43I feel just a bit of shit.
00:20:46I was mean yesterday about Daniel.
00:20:49I think I called him a couple of names in my anger.
00:20:53So let's hope that doesn't come out.
00:20:54But yeah, I was hurt and disappointed and I'm in self-protection mode here.
00:21:01I'm trying to push him away.
00:21:03I'm trying to detach because the fear of rejection is such a big one.
00:21:08But he's coming here today with a coffee for me and wanting to sort this out, which is good.
00:21:14Look, I just want to say that, like, I don't really think yesterday was too constructive for our relationship, but
00:21:21I don't want to dwell on the past.
00:21:23That's in the past.
00:21:25I want to focus on the future and try and do what the experts told me on the sofa.
00:21:32And try and show you that, you know, I'm trying to be that man for you.
00:21:36But with that being said, you've got to let me do it, Bec.
00:21:41I know.
00:21:43But I don't want to fight with you.
00:21:44I don't want to fight with you either.
00:21:46You know you're so special to me, but you've got to let me prove it.
00:21:50He does have a point.
00:21:52I do need to let him show me that he's taken on board the experts' advice and stuff.
00:21:57On that note, give me a hug.
00:22:01And I hear it.
00:22:03I hear it.
00:22:05I, you know, receive it.
00:22:08But I need to see it.
00:22:16There's two sides to Bec.
00:22:17One side of her is almost perfect, and the other side of her is almost impossible.
00:22:24So, you know, when she's like that, it's so easy to talk to her.
00:22:26We can solve problems like that.
00:22:28It's just a breeze.
00:22:31But if Bec pushes me away, then I can't be a better husband.
00:22:34I can't do what the experts said.
00:22:36It takes two to tango, so onwards and upwards.
00:22:44Our couples are enjoying their last days together in the experiment.
00:22:51And with the end of the 2026 Married at First Sight experiment in sight...
00:22:58I just realised we need to stop buying food.
00:23:01We're moving out.
00:23:02And final vows around the corner, our couples have a life-changing decision to make on whether
00:23:08or not they will continue their relationship outside of the experiment.
00:23:12Yeah, I can't believe it.
00:23:13It's like, what, in five, you know, five days, it'll be done.
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:17We're out.
00:23:18It's exciting, isn't it?
00:23:20We have the plan, thoughts, actions to move in together.
00:23:24Like, for us, this is it at the end of the day.
00:23:26So, we are in a good place, big time.
00:23:30I had a look through the cupboards.
00:23:31Are you going to be able to fit all your stuff?
00:23:33No.
00:23:33Income.
00:23:34And to help them with their decision, the experts have delivered the final task.
00:23:43God damn.
00:23:47Oh, I'm not in the mood for one of these.
00:23:49It's the envelope fairies.
00:23:52Manifesting, trip, passports, Las Vegas.
00:23:57Okay.
00:23:58Stella and Philip, as you reach the final list of experiment,
00:24:01there's a lot to reflect on.
00:24:02Some big decisions to make about your future together beyond the experiment.
00:24:06Whoa.
00:24:06With final vase fast approaching, it's crucial that you really think about what you want,
00:24:11what you need, and whether this relationship can go the distance.
00:24:14Stella, you will be heading off to meet with the other brides.
00:24:18And Philip, you will be meeting with other grooms in the experiment.
00:24:22Oh, yeah.
00:24:24This group task won't be easy.
00:24:26It may be confronting, but it's designed to push you outside your comfort zone.
00:24:31And force you to ask yourself the hard questions.
00:24:34Use this opportunity to get clarity before making one of the biggest decisions of your life.
00:24:38The experts!
00:24:40There you go. Wait, no nothing else?
00:24:44No.
00:24:45And it might be confronting.
00:24:46That's always what you want to see in a letter.
00:24:48Ah, gotta love those mid-morning knocks at the door.
00:24:52Do I need to put a button-up shirt on?
00:24:54Is it one of those events?
00:24:55I don't know, honey.
00:24:56I don't know what to expect with this one.
00:24:59Yeah.
00:24:59It's very vague.
00:25:00We have a letter with words on it.
00:25:04I'm going to go see the boys, Rachel's going to see the girls, and it might be confronting.
00:25:11Do you think we're going to the pub?
00:25:14That's confronting sometimes.
00:25:16The chicken schnitzel might be overcooked.
00:25:17That's confronting.
00:25:19It's like a girls' day, boys' day situation.
00:25:21I mean, good luck.
00:25:24No, no, no, not me.
00:25:26Me.
00:25:26You, good luck.
00:25:28Crazy.
00:25:28I'll bring some sage.
00:25:29Crazy.
00:25:29Bring something over there with you.
00:25:31Bring all the sage, cleanse.
00:25:33Honestly, I've got zero doubt coming into this task.
00:25:36I don't think that anything could throw me in any possible way.
00:25:40Starlin and I are feeling very secure.
00:25:42But I think if you're feeling insecure right now, like, it'd be tough.
00:25:47I'm not going to lie.
00:25:48My mood's just shattered today.
00:25:51I feel very tense.
00:25:53It's the last test before the end of the experiment.
00:25:56And Alyssa and I, right now, I don't think it's the way a relationship should be.
00:26:02It feels scary.
00:26:04At the end of the day, I don't even know what the task is.
00:26:07Like, who knows what's going to happen.
00:26:19This year, our five remaining wives and five remaining husbands will attend their own group
00:26:26lunches.
00:26:27Do you know what the task is?
00:26:29Do you know what the task is?
00:26:30Do you know what the task is?
00:26:31Do you know what the task is?
00:26:32Yes, yes, yes, we are.
00:26:33I love this for us.
00:26:34Last year was the first time we ever introduced the final test.
00:26:39This task was pivotal in helping our couples know exactly where they stood in their marriage,
00:26:45right at the crucial time before our couples head off to final vows.
00:26:50We all need this today.
00:26:52Right.
00:26:53You know, good times ahead.
00:26:55Ah, gosh.
00:26:58Let's go, boys.
00:26:59As experts, we are always looking to raise the stakes in this experiment.
00:27:07I haven't got enough money to be here.
00:27:09And this year might see our most radical change yet.
00:27:14We are removing the element of choice from the final test.
00:27:17This is epic.
00:27:19Oh, my gosh.
00:27:20Oh, my gosh.
00:27:20It's a female.
00:27:21It's a party.
00:27:22It's a party, guys.
00:27:23What?
00:27:24Oh, my God, there's so much food.
00:27:27During the matchmaking process, there was more than one person that our participants
00:27:32were compatible with.
00:27:33Hey, there's a lot of chairs here, though.
00:27:35Yeah, there's 10 chairs.
00:27:37This has the potential to strengthen relationships or tear them apart.
00:27:42Oh, no.
00:27:43Oh, no.
00:27:45Oh, no.
00:27:46Oh, oh, you're...
00:27:47Oh, no.
00:27:49Oh, no.
00:27:49Shannon.
00:27:50Shannon.
00:27:51Oh, you're kidding.
00:27:52What is going on here?
00:27:54It is the ultimate test of trust and security.
00:27:58James.
00:27:59I'm talking.
00:28:00What?
00:28:00Oh, my God.
00:28:01What the f***?
00:28:03Oh, my God.
00:28:05Oh, my God.
00:28:06Oh, my God.
00:28:06Oh, my God.
00:28:07Oh, my God.
00:28:09Oh, my...
00:28:14Our brides and grooms have arrived to the final test.
00:28:18This is epic.
00:28:20Oh, my God.
00:28:21A task set by the experts to see how strong their relationships are.
00:28:27Hey, there's a lot of chairs here, though.
00:28:29But they've just discovered there'll be guests in attendance.
00:28:35Oh, no.
00:28:35Oh, no.
00:28:36It's ten chairs.
00:28:37James.
00:28:39Antoni.
00:28:39What?
00:28:40Oh, my God.
00:28:40What the f***?
00:28:44Ladies, let me read the card.
00:28:46Let me read the card.
00:28:50Ladies, as you can see, there are some empty seats at the table.
00:28:55Those seats are reserved for some very special guests, hand-picked by us from thousands of
00:29:01people who applied for this experiment.
00:29:03Oh, this is wild.
00:29:05They have been invited today because during the matchmaking process, we considered more than
00:29:11one match for you.
00:29:14Today, as a group, you will be meeting with your alternative matches.
00:29:20Oh.
00:29:22This is...
00:29:22Oh.
00:29:23This is not...
00:29:24Oh, dear God.
00:29:25By now, you should all have awareness of how you are compatible with your current match.
00:29:31But perhaps you have been having some doubts and have noticed some incompatibilities.
00:29:36I feel sick.
00:29:38This is your opportunity to ask yourself, is the grass greener on the other side?
00:29:46That's heavy.
00:29:48For this final task, they have the opportunity to meet with another prospective match.
00:29:54In everyday life, they will all be in situations where they are faced with people who may be compatible
00:29:59with them.
00:30:00In this real-world scenario, will they be respectful of their partner?
00:30:06Or do they lean in and cross a line?
00:30:11Honestly, I don't want to do it, to be honest.
00:30:13I don't want to do this.
00:30:14No.
00:30:15No.
00:30:16Even though we're rocky right now, I wouldn't be doing this.
00:30:20I don't want to be here.
00:30:21I'm not here for anyone else.
00:30:23I'm here for Alyssa.
00:30:24And right now, the only thing I can think about is working through our issues rather than
00:30:28catching up with someone that could have been a potential match.
00:30:30I'm in a relationship, so I don't want to see other options or who could have been playing with me.
00:30:34So I find it absolutely ridiculous.
00:30:36My thought was straight away, I can't do this.
00:30:38I don't want to do this.
00:30:40I instantly felt sick.
00:30:42Considering the fact I'm trying to fix one little bump with my and Gia's relationship,
00:30:47it's the last thing I want to do.
00:30:49My point of view on it is, boys, in the normal world, if you went and met up with a
00:30:54woman and
00:30:54you didn't tell your wife, obviously you've got a big dilemma.
00:30:57Like, that's cheating.
00:30:59But this is a task on an experiment.
00:31:01I think the way we should look at it as men today is we talk to the girls about our
00:31:06relationships and
00:31:07just tell them about our wives and get some feedback.
00:31:09None of us are here to cheat.
00:31:11I'm not looking at it as another option.
00:31:13F*** no.
00:31:14I'm not going to lie, the task is confronting.
00:31:17I'm so invested in Rachel, I feel like we're so secure.
00:31:21But I'm thinking, I don't want another curveball, especially in this stage of the experiment.
00:31:26All right, we're all in.
00:31:29Cheer up, f*** mate.
00:31:30No one's died, mate.
00:31:32Not yet.
00:31:34Let's sit down, relax.
00:31:39It's a business meeting.
00:31:40It's a business meeting.
00:31:45It was uncomfortable.
00:31:47Like, my moral compass was telling me I don't even want to sit there.
00:31:50I'm very, very happy with Stella.
00:31:52And I just didn't want to entertain it.
00:31:55While the final task causes tension amongst the boys,
00:32:00across town at the girls' lunch, it's a very different mood.
00:32:06It's the grass greener.
00:32:08I would have dressed cuter.
00:32:10I don't look like sheer.
00:32:11Anyone got lip gloss?
00:32:13Can I borrow your lip gloss, please?
00:32:15We were relaxed.
00:32:16Like, we are independent, loud, amazing women, but few of us feel underappreciated by our husbands.
00:32:25I don't want to do this at all.
00:32:28We love them.
00:32:29We do everything.
00:32:30And I hope this task kicks their asses into gear, man.
00:32:33There's other bastards that want us.
00:32:35Holy s***!
00:32:37My immediate emotion was like, yeah, bring it on.
00:32:40Like, the world is full of bloody hot people, but Philip has nothing to worry about ever.
00:32:45Like, if I'm with him, I'm with him.
00:32:51Wow, they're going to be sitting right now with women.
00:32:55I cannot believe this.
00:32:57I cannot believe this.
00:32:58I'm, do you know what I'm so happy about?
00:33:00Let me tell you, let me tell you what Danny wore today.
00:33:03He wore the ugliest shirt.
00:33:13I'm fighting literally every urge to, like, run away right now.
00:33:18They're all sitting there with these girls and they're probably like, cool.
00:33:21All I can think about is him going and meeting another woman.
00:33:25He could have had a goddess walk through the door.
00:33:29I just don't know.
00:33:31That scares me.
00:33:32It really scares me.
00:33:34We haven't done all this work and progressed our relationship in a beautiful way to be here.
00:33:43This is the worst day for this to happen.
00:33:46We're not good.
00:33:47What if she's like an 11 out of 10 supermodel?
00:33:55What if Scott gets another Barbie doll with fake tits?
00:33:58Who doesn't drink and doesn't swear?
00:34:02God forbid.
00:34:12And if they ask about how it's going, just say, I'm happy with my relationship.
00:34:18Oh, for sake.
00:34:22Oh.
00:34:30Hi.
00:34:32Which one of you's is Philip?
00:34:34I'm Shannon.
00:34:35I've come here to meet Philip.
00:34:36I'm curious to see who the experts think I would be matched with.
00:34:40Shannon, nice to meet you.
00:34:41Nice to meet you.
00:34:41How you going?
00:34:42I'm hoping to meet someone that I'm compatible with.
00:34:45David.
00:34:46Hey, what's up, doll?
00:34:46I'm Crystal and I'm here to meet David.
00:34:50How are you?
00:34:50I'm coming here with an open heart.
00:34:53I've been single for almost two and a half years and the dating pool is slim.
00:34:58I'm sorry if I'm sorry, but like it's actually slim.
00:35:01So lovely to meet you.
00:35:02Likewise.
00:35:02My name's Stephanie and I'm here to meet Stephen.
00:35:06Apparently, you know, we could have been a match.
00:35:08So I'm quite interested to see what things we have in common.
00:35:11Hi, Chanel.
00:35:12How are you?
00:35:13Come and sit down.
00:35:14I'm Chanel.
00:35:15My match is Danny.
00:35:16I'm hoping to potentially meet my future husband, to be honest.
00:35:21But also not here to be a home wrecker.
00:35:26I'm Laura.
00:35:27I'm here to meet Scott.
00:35:28Hello, Scott.
00:35:29How are you?
00:35:31I'm looking for love like everyone else.
00:35:33And I'm hoping he's my future husband.
00:35:38How are we?
00:35:39How is everyone?
00:35:40Good.
00:35:40How are you?
00:35:41Yeah, good.
00:35:43I feel sick.
00:35:44I feel like I'm going to pass out.
00:35:46Like that's how sick I felt.
00:35:48It's very crazy how this has come about.
00:35:53Yeah, I know.
00:35:53It's wild.
00:35:55I don't want to be disrespectful to them, but I'm not here for my potential match.
00:36:00I met my match and I'm willing to follow through with what I currently have.
00:36:05I felt so damn sick.
00:36:07I'm so into GR and I don't need to see if there's another match.
00:36:11Like my relationship is so important to me right now.
00:36:13I want to focus on that and nothing else.
00:36:16I'm just going to start with saying thanks for coming out here, but I'm in a good relationship
00:36:20right now and I just feel like I'm comfortable right now.
00:36:22I'm probably just going to go because I can see.
00:36:25Yeah, that's okay.
00:36:26I appreciate it on the seat.
00:36:29I need to go to the bathroom.
00:36:31I'm just, where's the toilet?
00:36:32I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:36:33I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:36:43David, I would love to delve deep.
00:36:46Like to be honest, I'm a bit razzled right now.
00:36:48You know, it's lovely to meet you, but I don't feel like I can't engage.
00:37:21You know what I'm saying?
00:37:21I was still the same.
00:37:23Personally, the only reason why I sat down is because I wanted to say to Laura, the girl
00:37:27that was there, like, thanks for coming and I'm in a good relationship.
00:37:31And I felt so much better when I left.
00:37:33Like, I'm having issues with my missus and the only thing I'm thinking right now is to
00:37:38get back to her and mend it.
00:37:40I know Alyssa is very strong-minded and I'm hoping that in this task, she chose not to engage.
00:37:45And that's, that's all I can see.
00:37:53Hi.
00:37:57Welcome.
00:37:58How are we all?
00:38:00Hi.
00:38:01A guy out there told me I could find my future wife and her name's Alyssa.
00:38:05Ah.
00:38:07Welcome, Connor.
00:38:08Hello.
00:38:09How are you going?
00:38:09Hi.
00:38:09How are you?
00:38:10You look great.
00:38:11Nice to meet you.
00:38:12He's a hugger.
00:38:13That's cute.
00:38:15I feel like the boys would be panicking right now.
00:38:17I'm here for my girl Stella.
00:38:19I'm here.
00:38:20Sit down, Antoni.
00:38:21There's some nice guys that I walked in.
00:38:23Welcome.
00:38:24Hello, hello.
00:38:25Hello.
00:38:26Rachel.
00:38:27Rachel.
00:38:28Hi.
00:38:28How are you doing, Ignatius?
00:38:30The experts definitely knew that this was going to be a massive curveball.
00:38:34There's one girl I'm looking for, and that is Bec.
00:38:36Hey, how are you?
00:38:37You look amazing.
00:38:38My name's Taylor.
00:38:38Because half the girls at the table, their relationships are a crisis.
00:38:45Yo.
00:38:46Hey, what's happening, girls?
00:38:47James, looking for the beautiful Gia.
00:38:49Oh, my God.
00:38:50Yay.
00:38:51Hello.
00:38:52Hi, how are you?
00:38:52Nice to meet you.
00:38:54Oh, no.
00:38:54Oh, she'll put her handshake.
00:38:56How are you?
00:38:56I'm very good, yourself.
00:38:58All right.
00:38:59I think David would be shitting himself knowing that I am out on a date.
00:39:04Yeah, wow, okay.
00:39:06He would be shitting his pants.
00:39:07Yeah.
00:39:07Um, you talk to me.
00:39:09How old are you?
00:39:1031.
00:39:10Yeah.
00:39:12Why do I always get the young ones?
00:39:13I like it.
00:39:22Coming up...
00:39:23Is this the most awkward dinner party ever?
00:39:26The final test results...
00:39:28I'd be like, yes.
00:39:29What's our kids' names?
00:39:31...are set to shock.
00:39:33Do you have any tattoos?
00:39:33Yeah.
00:39:34Is that on your arm?
00:39:36Don't drop your pants.
00:39:49The final test has begun for our brides and grooms.
00:39:54And they're settling in for a lunch with their alternative matches.
00:39:58Babe, imagine what our men are doing right now.
00:40:01Honestly, all of the attention on them is going to be their favourite thing ever.
00:40:05Our men are going to love it.
00:40:06Women on them, they're going to love it.
00:40:08But grooms David and Scott have chosen to remove themselves
00:40:14and have found a private spot to collect their thoughts.
00:40:19I felt sick.
00:40:20We did the right thing.
00:40:21I've only got space for one ring on this ring finger.
00:40:24I don't care, Lewis.
00:40:25I'm just going to try and fix my relationship and that's what I'm working on.
00:40:27I'm not going to give someone else an opportunity.
00:40:29It will stay true.
00:40:30We left.
00:40:33I'm sorry, are your friends coming back?
00:40:37They really, like, smoke-bombed.
00:40:39I'm actually a bit disappointed with the boys because we did say as men,
00:40:43let's all sit here and do it together or let's all leave together.
00:40:47The boys could have sat and had, like,
00:40:49like, we're just having a friendly conversation.
00:40:51It doesn't have to be flirty, does it?
00:40:54I turn around and half the table's empty.
00:40:57I'm thinking, oh, shit.
00:40:59This is awkward.
00:41:01Look, I can relate to their concern.
00:41:04Scott and David's relationship, it's bleak.
00:41:07I'm staying true to myself.
00:41:08And they don't want it, you know, to make it worse.
00:41:11All Scott did was just voice his opinion at the commitment ceremony.
00:41:16And, gee, I did not like that at all.
00:41:19John, the expert, got it in one.
00:41:22Scott, you're petrified.
00:41:23No, but I think as well, it would be constructive for us to get some feedback from the girls.
00:41:28Have a chat, be respectful.
00:41:29They're going to give us good advice.
00:41:31To leave the table was one thing, but hiding together in a toilet...
00:41:37I said, thanks for coming, but I'm going to the bathroom.
00:41:39I can't!
00:41:46Hiding together in a toilet.
00:41:4850 years ago, men used to die in trenches.
00:41:51Men were dying in trenches.
00:41:53Now we have men hiding in toilets because they're scared to talk
00:41:57to a woman!
00:42:01F*** now!
00:42:03I've never seen such cowards in all my life.
00:42:07While Scott and David continue to take a break from the final test,
00:42:12their alternative matches, Laura and Crystal, are making a connection of their own.
00:42:18Are they supposed to come off?
00:42:18Yeah, I know.
00:42:19Give me his card.
00:42:24No, I'm serious.
00:42:25But, like, this is the thing.
00:42:26They're not coming.
00:42:27No, don't come back.
00:42:28No, I threw his name tag on the ground.
00:42:30That's where he belongs.
00:42:33Whatever, like, I understand you're in a committed relationship, but, like,
00:42:36mate, I'll keep you a potential match.
00:42:38What, are you going to walk out of me like that?
00:42:39You know what I mean?
00:42:42I'm Crystal Diaz.
00:42:44I'm Crystal Diaz.
00:42:44I'm 32.
00:42:45What are you looking for?
00:42:47I'm looking for, like, medium to tall height, fit bodied, but soft and super kind at the same time.
00:42:56My background is Filipino with a dash of Spanish.
00:42:59The dash of Spanish?
00:43:00Yeah, I like to call it the Chilipino side.
00:43:03Are you firing?
00:43:04Oh, come on, it's in our blood.
00:43:07It's just, like, I feel like we're so loving and passionate, and so when we get fired up, like, we
00:43:13get fired up.
00:43:14Do you know what?
00:43:15I'm sorry, but anyone can walk out, but have the decency to have that conversation,
00:43:19because at the end of the day, if you sit down and have that conversation,
00:43:23it doesn't mean you're cheating on your partner or you're doing the wrong thing.
00:43:27I just think you know what you're signing up for.
00:43:28It's an experiment.
00:43:29I think it's very disrespectful to you, girls.
00:43:32The moment someone puts anyone...
00:43:34The moment you put this up...
00:43:35He put his hand in your face to say, I'm married?
00:43:37It's a projection.
00:43:39There's an insecurity there that lies beneath why you would do that.
00:43:44You're generally not happy.
00:43:45If you are truly happy in your relationship, you can talk to a woman.
00:43:52I feel like if your partner's going to be that upset that you're talking to another woman,
00:43:57that's a problem.
00:44:00It's...
00:44:02Is this the most awkward dinner party ever?
00:44:05While the task causes division between the grooms...
00:44:10When your heart is thinking about one person,
00:44:12I don't have the time to have small talk.
00:44:15...across the city...
00:44:16What's your star sign?
00:44:17Uh, Sajid Derek's son.
00:44:19Sajid!
00:44:20Alyssa is taking the final test in her stride.
00:44:24I'm an Aries, so I'm fire.
00:44:26What's your, um, husband's star sign?
00:44:29Um, he is a Libra.
00:44:31Oh, I've heard terrible things about Libras.
00:44:33I'm the upgrade.
00:44:35My name's Connor Loughnan.
00:44:37I'm 30 or turning 32 at the end of the year.
00:44:40I'm a track and field sprinter, so 100 metres and 200 metres.
00:44:44I'm currently second fastest in Australia for beach sprinting.
00:44:48It's like, whoa, what's your type?
00:44:50Obviously, somebody, like, sporty and motivated.
00:44:53And then, also, I'm a very big talker.
00:44:56Usually, I just start yapping away and talking shit.
00:44:59So, the ones who give it back, I'm just like, yeah, we're on.
00:45:03It's like, I like you.
00:45:04Hey, so, yeah, what are you doing?
00:45:05Talk to me.
00:45:06Yes.
00:45:06Ah, so I'm a sprinter.
00:45:08100 metre and 200 metre.
00:45:09So, yeah, I run in straight lines for fun.
00:45:11So, it's, yeah.
00:45:13The goal is the Comm Games and Olympics.
00:45:17Nice, wow, OK.
00:45:19For work, I've got two companies.
00:45:20One's a gym and the other's NDIS disability support.
00:45:23Oh, yes, we can all get them.
00:45:25I need to provide for my future wife.
00:45:28It was just funny meeting Connor,
00:45:29because he's very different to David.
00:45:32That's cute.
00:45:33He's louder and he's got a lot to say.
00:45:36I've been an adrenaline junkie since birth.
00:45:37That's why I don't know how I ended up in this sport,
00:45:39where it's literally the least exciting sport.
00:45:41Yeah, I couldn't, um, I can't just do, like, the one job.
00:45:44That's why I do, like, go to the gym,
00:45:46go to, like, NDIS disability sports and help people.
00:45:48You talk a lot, don't you?
00:45:50Yeah, it's...
00:45:50Are you ADHD too?
00:45:52Yeah, I was trying to hold it back as a start,
00:45:53so it seemed normal, but, yeah.
00:45:55You like it?
00:45:55I feel like you talk a lot as well, though.
00:45:56You talk a lot as well.
00:45:57Oh, man, I don't shut up.
00:45:59I get sick and tired of hearing my own voice in my apartment, though.
00:46:01That's my, um...
00:46:02No, because my husband...
00:46:05My husband, he's a man of few words at times.
00:46:08He doesn't talk as much as me.
00:46:09He's very quiet, so I get a bit bored.
00:46:10I can see that, yeah.
00:46:11I talk a lot, but, like, I let my husband talk.
00:46:15Yeah, I feel like you are very different to him.
00:46:17Yeah, yeah, that sounds like it.
00:46:19You're opposites, yeah, yeah.
00:46:20Yeah, okay.
00:46:21Well, hopefully it's not a bad one.
00:46:23He's opposite.
00:46:23He's gonna hate it that I'm here with another man.
00:46:27Oh, so he would hate it?
00:46:28He's not gonna... he's not gonna like it, yeah.
00:46:31So, who's gonna get in trouble by the husbands?
00:46:33I actually don't care if my husband comes for me.
00:46:35He can come for me, but...
00:46:37He ain't coming for me.
00:46:38Oh, like, Goya.
00:46:39Yeah, is that more of a jealousy thing?
00:46:40He wants me, he wants me.
00:46:41That's good.
00:46:42What about him on a date with another girl?
00:46:44How does that make you feel?
00:46:45Oh, go for it.
00:46:46Yeah.
00:46:46Because I'm feeling...
00:46:47I'm feeling uncertain right now.
00:46:49Stressed about it.
00:46:50You know he's setting it, but now you're not setting it.
00:46:51I am 70 cent.
00:46:55Okay.
00:46:55Not 100.
00:46:56Oh, wow.
00:46:57Okay.
00:46:57You know he's gonna be mortified.
00:47:14What about him on a date with another girl, how's that make you feel?
00:47:17Oh, go for it.
00:47:19Yeah.
00:47:19Because I'm feeling...
00:47:20I'm feeling uncertain right now.
00:47:22Yeah.
00:47:24You know he's setting it, but now you're not setting it.
00:47:26I am 70 cent.
00:47:30Yeah.
00:47:31I'm not...
00:47:31I'm not 100.
00:47:33Oh, wow.
00:47:33Yeah.
00:47:34Honestly, I thought I'd be walking in there and she'd be super happy with her partner,
00:47:38but it turns out they're in a bit of turmoil.
00:47:41She said she was 70% keen.
00:47:42I was kind of like, okay, that's like, you're either 100% or you're not.
00:47:46If there's any of that tiny bit of doubt, then it just infests and turns toxic.
00:47:50He's an amazing man.
00:47:52He is.
00:47:52He cares for me and he grounds me because I'm so loud.
00:47:56And I am really loud and outspoken and direct, right?
00:47:59Oh, yeah.
00:48:00But he's softened for me and I need him to be strong with me.
00:48:04He's treading on the eggshells.
00:48:05He's avoiding me because he doesn't like...
00:48:06He's become a pussy, mate, is what he's become.
00:48:08He's not a pussy.
00:48:09But he had it with you.
00:48:10He's not a pussy.
00:48:10You've got a strong man that's going to say something.
00:48:13He's not a pussy.
00:48:13I don't agree with that.
00:48:14But he's been like that towards you.
00:48:17I respect David as a man.
00:48:19Like, he is an amazing man.
00:48:21But I am feeling very mixed emotions in my head at the moment.
00:48:26And I feel like today it was a good day with this man, Connor.
00:48:32I felt like we really had a bit of fun and a bit of banter today.
00:48:36Let's go!
00:48:36Two ADHDs trying to talk on top of each other and just, like, him and there.
00:48:41Listen, listen, OK.
00:48:42Obviously, he's a handsome man as well.
00:48:44But you know what?
00:48:45He says things.
00:48:46Like, he talks and he has more high energy.
00:48:48So, like, that was just fun for me.
00:48:51And, like, it has made me realise even more now.
00:48:56I'm lacking in these areas in my relationship.
00:48:59Do you have any tattoos?
00:49:00Yeah, I can only show you where that.
00:49:02Where about?
00:49:03Is it on your arse?
00:49:05No, I don't actually have any.
00:49:06You're going to drop your pants?
00:49:07Yeah, if I have to.
00:49:07Let me do some squats first, so it looks like.
00:49:15I'm intrigued to get to know what's been happening with you, really.
00:49:19Yeah, yeah.
00:49:19So, like, I'm really happy.
00:49:20I legitimately feel like I've found the right person.
00:49:23So, I personally don't want to be here, but I don't want to disrespect you.
00:49:26I understand that you've made the effort here.
00:49:29But, yeah, like I said, I'm very content.
00:49:31And I just feel.
00:49:32So, the experts did that job.
00:49:33That's amazing.
00:49:34Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
00:49:35My alternative match with Shannon, she had a nice warm energy about her.
00:49:40But no disrespect or anything to take away from her, but I'm good, you know.
00:49:43I'm pretty secure with what I've got here.
00:49:46She's 32.
00:49:46She's from Lithuania.
00:49:48Oh, amazing.
00:49:49Yeah, yeah.
00:49:49So, Eastern Europe.
00:49:51Yeah, yeah.
00:49:51Stunning.
00:49:52Is she based in Australia?
00:49:53Yeah, yeah, she's in Australia.
00:49:54She's in Australia.
00:49:54So, like, I was...
00:49:55Yeah, because I was based in Melbourne, I'm going to be moving to Grinnell.
00:49:59There you go.
00:49:59Yeah, it's crazy.
00:50:00I'm happy for you.
00:50:01That's really good.
00:50:05I'm not...
00:50:05I'm not...
00:50:06Oh, my God.
00:50:07I'm not a lightweight, just so you know.
00:50:10Ignatius, Ignatius, tell us about yourself.
00:50:13Ah, about myself.
00:50:13All right.
00:50:14So, my name's Ignatius.
00:50:15I'm 40.
00:50:17I'm Sydney.
00:50:18Work in advertising.
00:50:21And, obviously, I'm single.
00:50:22That's why I'm here.
00:50:24I'm not feeling comfortable at all.
00:50:26Have you ever been married or...?
00:50:27No married, no kids.
00:50:28No kids, nothing?
00:50:29No, nothing.
00:50:29OK, yeah, all right.
00:50:30If I could have my way in this moment of us sitting at the table,
00:50:34all I want to do is pick up my handbag,
00:50:36push my chair and be like, it's been loving meeting you all.
00:50:38I want to go home to my husband.
00:50:39But, you know, this guy's taking the time to come and meet me.
00:50:43And have you always been in Sydney?
00:50:45Always been in Sydney.
00:50:45Yeah.
00:50:46Born and bred?
00:50:47Where are you, Selk?
00:50:48I'm from Melbourne.
00:50:49Nice.
00:50:49Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:50:52Sorry.
00:50:53I'm very uncomfortable right now.
00:50:55Like, yeah, I've got to be really honest.
00:50:57My husband and I, Stephen, he and I are in such a great place.
00:51:02We've actually had such a beautiful journey.
00:51:05Yeah?
00:51:06Yeah.
00:51:06How was the wedding?
00:51:07OK, so it was on a boat.
00:51:09It was really fun.
00:51:10And it's just kind of, like, tied in.
00:51:12So, um, hubby's also a marine technician, so he works on boats as well.
00:51:16Yeah.
00:51:16So his passion is really, like, boats and fishing.
00:51:19Yeah.
00:51:19Hubby's also a marine technician.
00:51:22Can I just say, it's so adorable that you're saying hubby, hubby, hubby.
00:51:25It's so good.
00:51:26That's so cool.
00:51:26Here's my hubby.
00:51:27It's so good.
00:51:28My hubby.
00:51:28I love it.
00:51:29I love it.
00:51:30It's, um, as you can probably tell by that, my heart currently belongs to someone else.
00:51:36But, um, thinking about this, knowing that he's doing that with someone else,
00:51:43scares the shit out of me.
00:51:47Yeah, it's been a hell of a ride between me and my partner.
00:51:50Yeah?
00:51:51What's your partner's name?
00:51:52Rachel.
00:51:52Rachel?
00:51:53Rachel.
00:51:53Are you having a good time with Rachel?
00:51:54Now we are.
00:51:55Now?
00:51:56Oh, you guys had some issues?
00:51:57We had some issues at the start.
00:51:59Competing issues?
00:51:59We married strangers.
00:52:01Yeah, of course.
00:52:02I'm pretty secure.
00:52:03We've come leaps and bounds.
00:52:05And I think Rachel's definitely the perfect match for me.
00:52:09That's so cool.
00:52:10You know what?
00:52:11When I first sat down, I was like, oh, you're very nervous.
00:52:13But you show that you're secure within yourself because you've actually stayed.
00:52:16Very well done.
00:52:18Like, thank you.
00:52:20Yeah, Stephanie, too.
00:52:21I went in there with the intentions of going, I'm going to be a man.
00:52:24I'm going to give my alternate match the respect because she's come here to the table.
00:52:29But my mind is on Rachel.
00:52:31She's my number one.
00:52:32I'm so into Rachel that it doesn't matter how good that other person is.
00:52:36You can't see yourself with them because Rachel knows me.
00:52:42As Stephen continues to sing Rachel's praises...
00:52:46Well, she loves a laugh.
00:52:47Like, let me tell you, Rachel loves a laugh.
00:52:50Across town, Bec has a burning question she needs answered.
00:52:55Yeah, put your hand up if you're circumcised.
00:52:58Oh, dear God.
00:53:00So, what do you do?
00:53:02I do boxing.
00:53:04I'm a pro boxer.
00:53:06Is that bad?
00:53:08That was my husband.
00:53:09Oh, there you go.
00:53:10Yeah.
00:53:10My husband gets up here with my grandma.
00:53:12But his team, his came up, Connor.
00:53:16Maybe we can square off at some point then, see who's the real winner.
00:53:19Hey, Taylor, with your fitness instructor and your boxer, you need to have a fairly structured life.
00:53:25I just wonder, we had a guy on, he had an issue with his relationship because he wouldn't have sex
00:53:31if he was going to go to the gym.
00:53:32Well, that ain't me, I'll tell you right.
00:53:36That guy has lost his mind.
00:53:38I'm an easy-going, sort of go-with-the-flow kind of guy.
00:53:41I want a girl that loves humour.
00:53:44I like to have fun.
00:53:45I like jokes and gags and fun.
00:53:47That's what I like.
00:53:48And hopefully she's the dog person.
00:53:51I've got a French bulldog who does smell, he does f...
00:53:54How old are you?
00:53:55I'm 31.
00:53:56How old are you?
00:53:5735, 13, 36.
00:53:58F***ing nice.
00:53:59Old.
00:54:00Nah, not at all.
00:54:00Cougar.
00:54:01See, I like cougars.
00:54:02That's sort of my thing.
00:54:03So they've got it right here.
00:54:05What's your heart?
00:54:05Thanks, babes.
00:54:06I would have washed my hair if I knew I was going on a date today.
00:54:10You've got your husband now, but what was the thing you were looking for?
00:54:14What was your type?
00:54:17Someone who loved animals.
00:54:18Someone who had good teeth.
00:54:21Someone who probably wanted to f*** me.
00:54:24That helps.
00:54:25Beautiful, so I'm coming at the right time then.
00:54:28Yeah, exactly.
00:54:56I'm coming at the right time then.
00:54:58Yeah, exactly.
00:55:00I'm coming at the right time then.
00:55:00My husband and I, we hardly have any sex, so I just think he's not into me, but he won't
00:55:06say it.
00:55:07No, you're not into me.
00:55:08Just say it.
00:55:09You're not into me.
00:55:11Listen, I'm not dogging him.
00:55:12Like, I love him.
00:55:13Like, I'm in love.
00:55:14Really?
00:55:14You love him?
00:55:15I don't like that.
00:55:17But my worry is, is that what happened is that I'm left heartbroken.
00:55:22So right now, I'm trying to leave.
00:55:23I'm trying to push him away and run away.
00:55:25Yeah.
00:55:26Yeah, so that's my life at the moment.
00:55:28I mean, that sounds like chaos.
00:55:30My thoughts on Bec, she's an absolute firecracker, a bit of a tornado.
00:55:33She obviously is sort of unhappy with the relationship, but is happy with it.
00:55:37He's the most important person ever to me.
00:55:40Like, I'm happy, but I'm confused.
00:55:45We hate confusion.
00:55:47Time will tell.
00:55:48What happens now?
00:55:50We've got final vows.
00:55:51Oh, there's final vows.
00:55:52So, you might turn around and go, well, I met this guy the other day.
00:55:56I've had a great time.
00:55:57Loves dogs.
00:55:58I'm unfortunately going to f*** me.
00:56:00Hang on a second.
00:56:01I like this guy.
00:56:02It's my turn now.
00:56:03It was like it was meant to be.
00:56:06Taylor, he is a cool guy.
00:56:09But in my opinion, Taylor doesn't compare to Danny.
00:56:12I love Danny.
00:56:13He f***ing does my head in, but I love him.
00:56:17And then going into this situation with another man,
00:56:20it makes me appreciate him more.
00:56:22And I hope, crossing everything,
00:56:28that it's made Danny appreciate me too.
00:56:31No, no.
00:56:32Oi, girl.
00:56:32You abandoned me.
00:56:34Today's been chaos so far.
00:56:36E.T.
00:56:36E.T. probably found f*** love better before me.
00:56:39I'm in a good relationship.
00:56:40Yeah.
00:56:41The boys sprinting off, quaking in their boots.
00:56:45But I did notice that when it was all getting pretty intense in the room,
00:56:49Chanel, she just sat there so chilled next to me.
00:56:52It feels refreshing.
00:56:54She's probably not the most peaceful at the best of times.
00:56:57Do you have a big dipper?
00:56:59She's got a big dipper.
00:57:04I'm Chanel Brown.
00:57:06And I manage an education company that I am running a business in an executive role.
00:57:12If you could describe, I guess, your perfect partner, what would he look like?
00:57:16He needs to have a presence.
00:57:19He has to be driven, takes good care of himself, presents well and very secure.
00:57:27So we were potentially going to be matches.
00:57:30I find you very attractive.
00:57:32Would I have been on top?
00:57:33Yeah.
00:57:35To be honest, I don't really have a type so much.
00:57:38I'm more just go off like someone I vibe with.
00:57:40I agree.
00:57:42So how's your experience been so proud?
00:57:45It's been good, yeah.
00:57:47It's a lot, do you know what you mean?
00:57:50I'll be honest, we've had our ups and downs.
00:57:53She's a good woman.
00:57:55She's a strong woman.
00:57:56She's a good woman.
00:57:57But we've had a couple of, like, major, minor run-ins.
00:58:04I'm not too, like, probably not the most confrontational bloke in the world.
00:58:08I'm pretty chill.
00:58:10Like, yeah, it can be a bit, like, um, it can be intense.
00:58:15Dude, I appreciate fun to speak.
00:58:18Working on it, you know.
00:58:19I'm a really good therapist, I have to say.
00:58:22I'm a listener.
00:58:24Thanks, Janelle.
00:58:25She was a nice woman, really friendly.
00:58:28Yeah.
00:58:28OK.
00:58:29And she had time and energy, completely different to Bec.
00:58:33It was actually quite nice to have some peace.
00:58:44Scott and I are not good.
00:58:45No, you're not.
00:58:46Oh, this is music, James.
00:58:47He is.
00:58:47Oh, yeah, you came at the right time for you.
00:58:49That's what I'm here for.
00:58:51Obviously, I've shown so much, and I do everything.
00:58:54I cook for him, I clean for him, I'm alive.
00:58:56I told him that I'm in love with him.
00:58:58He hasn't said it back, which has been pissing me off,
00:59:01because usually I'm a girl with, like, 20 guys, and I'm like, go away.
00:59:04Should have been matched for me, then.
00:59:05Oh, shit.
00:59:07This is too much.
00:59:10I'm James Brady.
00:59:12I worked in the south of the marketing.
00:59:14I've been engaged twice.
00:59:15There were two moments where I've nearly been married,
00:59:17and I never eventuated.
00:59:18But you've got a failure in life to become successful, right?
00:59:22It's the same as sales.
00:59:23You're going to get 10 no's to get a yes, so.
00:59:25What are you attracted to?
00:59:27What are you looking for?
00:59:28Someone that has similar energy to me.
00:59:30Someone that likes to go to the gym,
00:59:32but also likes to drink everything out and then.
00:59:34If they're a little more hard work, that's fine.
00:59:36Yeah, it is what it is.
00:59:37So, birds are lucky, they say.
00:59:40So, you need the validation from Scott.
00:59:44I...
00:59:45I'm here now anyway, so.
00:59:46Oh, love, love, love.
00:59:47Gia's met her husband now, so it doesn't matter.
00:59:50You don't need to go back to him.
00:59:51A what?
00:59:52What did you just say?
00:59:53What?
00:59:54Gia's met her husband now.
00:59:55She doesn't need to go back to him.
00:59:56She'd come home with me.
00:59:58Cute.
01:00:00James, he comes in very hot.
01:00:03If I was single, yeah, I'd eat that up.
01:00:07I'd be like, yes, what's that kid's name?
01:00:15Is body dysmorphia something that you'd be happy discussing on the show?
01:00:19I'm happy to talk about my weight loss and how I did it, and I think that's great.
01:00:23But yeah, being that vulnerable, I think it's going to be quite hard for me, to be honest.
01:00:28But, I mean, if talking about my body dysmorphia and my struggles with my mental health around
01:00:33my body image, if that's, like, something you think that people can relate to and feel,
01:00:38you know, empowered as well with that, like, I guess I could give it a go.
01:00:42But yeah, it's not easy talking about it.
01:00:46I lost 20 kilos.
01:00:48I haven't always been like this.
01:00:53When I was in uni and we were drinking all the time, we were eating shit food,
01:00:57never liked sport.
01:00:58I'd go to Hungry Jack's, drive through, like, all the time.
01:01:01I got to a point where I was, like, looking at myself in the mirror,
01:01:04and I was like, something's got to change.
01:01:06Either I keep going down this path, I end up morbidly obese, and I'd be quite unhappy,
01:01:11or I completely turned my life around.
01:01:13I start training, I start really looking after myself.
01:01:16Started around 2021 and completely re-comped my body.
01:01:20Lost 20 kilos.
01:01:22Not only was that a physical transformation, but it was also such a big mental transformation.
01:01:26It completely changed my life.
01:01:28So with your body transformation, are you happy with where you're at?
01:01:31I would absolutely love to do a bodybuilding competition,
01:01:33because it's going to show me basically how far I can push it.
01:01:36But the hesitation I have is also because I do really struggle with body dysmorphia.
01:01:44It can be hard to work out what's real and what's not, and your mind kind of plays tricks on
01:01:49you.
01:01:50I really don't know if I've got what it takes.
01:01:56The final test of the experiment has divided our grooms.
01:02:00And for Danny, David and Scott's departure from the table is a violation of the bro code.
01:02:08The boys could have sat and had like, like, we're just having a friendly conversation.
01:02:13And this is what's annoyed me the most.
01:02:15We said, as men, let's sit down, let's be gentlemen, and let's do this together.
01:02:19We're that insecure that we can't talk to a female.
01:02:29Look, these women have flown in from all over the country today to come and talk to us.
01:02:38I'm sorry, someone had to say it.
01:02:40And I'm not the most talented man in the world.
01:02:42I'm not the strongest man. I'm not the most charismatic man.
01:02:45But I am the man who always shows up.
01:02:48Yeah, I love Danny.
01:02:49When the history books are written, Danny Chewitt always shows up.
01:02:53Why don't you girls move up here so we can all have, like, a group conversation?
01:02:57Help yourselves to some food as well, girls.
01:03:00I cooked it myself, yeah.
01:03:08Danny, he was definitely in his element over there.
01:03:12You are an absolute genius here.
01:03:14I hope that you find a partner soon. I'm sure you will.
01:03:17Sorry, um, background?
01:03:19Irish.
01:03:20English.
01:03:20You've got to stop touching me, because if my wife sees this, she's going to go.
01:03:23No, cheers.
01:03:25He was definitely enjoying the moment, let's just put it that way.
01:03:32Maybe a little bit too much, you know.
01:03:34I'm going to leave.
01:03:35I'm just asking you.
01:03:36Would you want to leave?
01:03:37It's up to you.
01:03:40I think we're just having a friendly conversation.
01:03:43We're here.
01:03:44It's okay.
01:03:45It's all right.
01:03:48Let's go.
01:03:49Let's just go.
01:03:55I want to have my peace with my woman.
01:03:56And that's what I was thinking about this whole time as soon as I saw the letter.
01:03:59All I was thinking about was Gia.
01:04:01Bye, boys.
01:04:03See you later.
01:04:04Good luck with everything.
01:04:10Hey, wait up.
01:04:14Is Danny coming?
01:04:15Nah.
01:04:16I have to go .
01:04:17No, no, Danny.
01:04:18He goes to Shots, right?
01:04:19That's everything you need to know.
01:04:21He doesn't care, bro.
01:04:22Yeah.
01:04:23My relationship is so important with Gia right now.
01:04:25I just wouldn't give any other person the time of day.
01:04:29Okay, James, introduce yourself to the group.
01:04:33James, I've been here 10 years.
01:04:34Sydney for seven.
01:04:35Moved to Goldie three years ago.
01:04:37Do you make a good amount of money?
01:04:38Enough.
01:04:39Okay.
01:04:42What's your vibe on our relationship in terms of finances?
01:04:45Well, I've always been a provider, so...
01:04:47I only date men that pay for everything.
01:04:51Like, I kind of want to be, like, a trophy wife.
01:04:54That's my vibe.
01:04:56I can't!
01:04:58Let's get married then.
01:05:02I'm married, sorry.
01:05:03Welcome!
01:05:04So, James, I mean, he was trying hard.
01:05:07I'll give him that.
01:05:07He was giving it a good go.
01:05:09And I do like that when men really put themselves out there.
01:05:13I definitely got a bit flustered.
01:05:16Seriously, I can't.
01:05:20Stop it.
01:05:21Why?
01:05:22I don't know, stop it.
01:05:25Have you liked the experiment?
01:05:27Have you enjoyed it?
01:05:29Yeah, I don't know.
01:05:30There's some things that, like, are starting to piss me off.
01:05:33Yeah.
01:05:34It's not going well?
01:05:35Yeah, we've been, like, on our wedding, we straightaway clicked.
01:05:39Like, we've been into each other the whole time.
01:05:41We really haven't had much issues until now.
01:05:45Like, because he'll go, we're okay, babe, everything's good.
01:05:48And then we sit on the couch, it throws me under the bars,
01:05:51and I don't feel safe.
01:05:53Narcissism behaviour.
01:05:54Yeah.
01:05:55I feel like I give so much to this man,
01:05:58and I feel like it's not being reciprocated.
01:06:00I just put, at the end of the day, I'm a girl who wants to feel loved.
01:06:03Scott cares for you, babe.
01:06:05We've seen it this whole time.
01:06:07I know that it's been rough these past couple of days,
01:06:10but if we actually put it in perspective of how this whole thing has gone,
01:06:15he adores you.
01:06:17Look, you're dogging her out.
01:06:19That's not acceptable in my eyes.
01:06:21A man should not do that to a woman.
01:06:23Babe, yes.
01:06:23Ever, ever.
01:06:25Oh, James, put it on some ice.
01:06:28No, never.
01:06:30I'm sorry, my boy cares for Gia.
01:06:34You need a man that respects you, that loves you,
01:06:35and wants to be with you, and jumps from the roof.
01:06:38I'm trying to say, this is my chick.
01:06:41Honestly, chill the out.
01:06:43It's not good right now, to be honest,
01:06:45and I feel very unsettled with you and I.
01:06:47I love the voice at all.
01:06:48So, yeah.
01:06:52You're ridiculous.
01:06:56James, like, he wants a piece of Gia,
01:06:58and do you know what?
01:06:59Sitting there adoring her,
01:07:01it's what she's not getting from Scott.
01:07:04So, yeah, I think questions have been raised.
01:07:07You're literally my perfect woman.
01:07:09The outgoingness, the fireiness, the tatters.
01:07:12I'm a drag.
01:07:13Okay.
01:07:15And I reckon that's a little bit of a spark and a vibe there,
01:07:17to be honest with you.
01:07:19You look beautiful today.
01:07:22Gia, she just stole my eyes.
01:07:25As soon as I walked up, that's the girl that I want to be with.
01:07:27Like, outspoken, tattoos, blonde hair, beautiful.
01:07:32Are you a bit giddy?
01:07:36Maybe.
01:07:37Yeah, maybe a little bit.
01:07:39I'm still hurt from getting a handshake, so...
01:07:41Oh, my God.
01:07:42That's all right, we'll finish with a kiss.
01:07:43Oh, my God, no, you will not.
01:07:48Look, if I was in the outside world and I met James in a bar,
01:07:51I probably would go on a date with James.
01:07:54He has tattoos.
01:07:56He's a bit pushy.
01:07:57He's a bit of an alpha.
01:07:59He's very forward.
01:08:05And I do tend to like men like that.
01:08:09I've waited a year of being single.
01:08:10I've not been in any relationship since I broke up my ex, so.
01:08:13Okay, interesting.
01:08:16I can wait another year.
01:08:18For what?
01:08:20Oh, however long.
01:08:20I'm done in a week.
01:08:21I'm literally done.
01:08:22Oh, wait a week, man?
01:08:23Yeah, I'm literally done in a week.
01:08:24That's good.
01:08:35With grooms David, Scott and Philip
01:08:38leaving the final test lunch earlier...
01:08:41Is Danny coming?
01:08:43Nah.
01:08:43That goes too sharp, bro.
01:08:45That goes everything you need to know.
01:08:46He doesn't care, bro.
01:08:48Our remaining grooms, Danny...
01:08:52..and Stephen...
01:08:53My wife, Rachel, lives a massive swifty.
01:08:55Like, massive.
01:08:57..are saying their goodbyes.
01:09:00So nice to meet you guys.
01:09:02Thank you so much for staying, honestly.
01:09:04Legends.
01:09:06Bit disappointed with the boys, to be honest.
01:09:09You go sprinting off, you leave your mates at the table,
01:09:12and not only that, you go and hide in a toilet.
01:09:15God damn!
01:09:16I'm telling you now, they're scared of their own shadows.
01:09:19Lovely to meet you, yeah?
01:09:21Good luck.
01:09:22We don't hate these.
01:09:23Said to the boys, we either stand and fight together like men,
01:09:26or we die together like men.
01:09:31See you later.
01:09:32Good to see you.
01:09:34Hopefully I helped.
01:09:35See you later.
01:09:36Me and Steve-o, we stood there as men.
01:09:39It's so lovely to meet you.
01:09:40Likewise.
01:09:41We were gentlemen, we were respectful, and we fought like men.
01:09:46Bye, Danny.
01:09:47Bye, Steve-o.
01:09:48Bye, Steve.
01:09:49Goodbye.
01:09:49Let's get the out of here.
01:09:52Aw.
01:09:53Good luck, guys.
01:10:02Cheers.
01:10:08I've waited a year, I've been single.
01:10:09I've not been in any relationship since I broke up with you, so.
01:10:12OK, interesting.
01:10:14I can wait another year, but...
01:10:16For what?
01:10:18Oh, however long...
01:10:19I'm done in a week.
01:10:20I'm literally done.
01:10:21Oh, wait a week, then?
01:10:21Yeah, I'm literally done in a week.
01:10:29Perfect.
01:10:29Are you attracted to me?
01:10:30Are you attracted to me?
01:10:32Um...
01:10:34Like, in the real world, if I went out, yes, I would date you, yes.
01:10:38Yeah, I would go on a date with you, I would hang out with you, but...
01:10:41I'm with Scott.
01:10:42But he's not invested in with you, so...
01:10:44This year, we're not young, right?
01:10:46Why are you invested in with someone that's not going to give you everything back?
01:10:50Be invested in with someone that's going to give you everything and more.
01:10:59I'll take Instagram, and then when you come off the show, I can take your number.
01:11:03No, way!
01:11:05Why?
01:11:06No chemistry?
01:11:06Oh, sorry.
01:11:13You're getting nervous, because you like me.

01:11:15That's nervous.
01:11:16I'm not nervous at all.

01:12:25I don't know what happened with Alyssa and the girl.
01:12:29What happens when our brides and grooms
01:12:33watch back the footage of the final test?
01:12:37I feel like I've been betrayed.
01:12:40I've done in a week.
