00:00:01Cheers to the experiment.
00:00:02Cheers to the experts.
00:00:05This year's most incredible love story
00:00:09unlocked its next exciting chapter.
00:00:12Is it?
00:00:12Oh, is it a house case?
00:00:14Yeah.
00:00:14That means the world.
00:00:15That's exactly what I needed to see
00:00:17at this point in the experiment.
00:00:19We are it.
00:00:20We're going distance.
00:00:22There's no doubt in my mind.
00:00:24When our couples watched back the final test...
00:00:28Instagram's greener.
00:00:29Some were feeling betrayed.
00:00:31Why do I always get the young ones?
00:00:33I like it.
00:00:34I'm disappointed.
00:00:36Yeah, I'm disappointed too.
00:00:37An emotionally charged Alyssa and David
00:00:40made a drastic call.
00:00:42I'm done.
00:00:42I deserve more than that.
00:00:44I'm done too.
00:00:45Here you go.
00:00:49James, give it to me and I'll give it to her
00:00:51when she needs it later on.
00:00:52Why would you take the number?
00:00:54Oh, Daniel.
00:00:54Daniel.
00:00:55Danny accused Beck of enabling cheating.
00:00:58This is the problem.
00:01:00You can't speak to Beck.
00:01:01You can't.
00:01:02And then...
00:01:03Stop.
00:01:04I'm leaving.
00:01:05I'm leaving the experiment.
00:01:06Bride gone missing.
00:01:08She's left.
00:01:09When Gia quit the experiment...
00:01:12I'm done in a week.
00:01:13Scott was left heartbroken
00:01:15as he watched back her interaction
00:01:17at the final test.
00:01:19She just broke my heart completely.
00:01:21She just used me.
00:01:36It's been a few hours since Scott watched the footage of Gia
00:01:39at the final test.
00:01:41And he's still processing his emotions.
00:01:53I don't even know how I feel right now.
00:01:55I'm a bit lost, numb, upset.
00:01:57All kinds of things.
00:01:59And I think one of the main reasons as to why Gia wanted to leave this experiment was
00:02:04because she's guilty.
00:02:06For what she's done at the final test.
00:02:08And just watching her flirt with this person.
00:02:11I'm just...
00:02:12I feel like I've been left blindsided.
00:02:16Gia texted me saying that she's flown to Melbourne.
00:02:20And that she's heartbroken.
00:02:23And then left a voice note saying,
00:02:25I'm curled up with my daughter,
00:02:27saying how much she's upset and her daughter's crying.
00:02:30And then she sent me a bunch of photos...
00:02:33of memories.
00:02:34I think she's trying to make me feel bad.
00:02:37But I didn't reply,
00:02:38so we haven't spoken still.
00:02:41It's upsetting and disappointing
00:02:43because I've given this experiment more than 100%.
00:02:48I've given so much of my time, effort, love, support.
00:02:53Everything I've put on the line for this person.
00:02:56But she's treating me so...
00:02:58wrong.
00:03:19It's the morning of the final dinner party
00:03:22of the 2026 Married at First Sight experiment.
00:03:27Are you excited?
00:03:29Yeah, I am excited.
00:03:30It feels like we've been in here a while,
00:03:33but it feels like it's been two seconds, so...
00:03:35For Stella and Phillip,
00:03:37the final week of the experiment
00:03:39has been one to celebrate
00:03:41as it saw them unlock a new chapter in their relationship.
00:03:46What's this?
00:03:48It's house keys.
00:03:50Oh, it's house keys?
00:03:51Yeah.
00:03:51That's huge.
00:03:52Thanks.
00:03:55So Stella and I,
00:03:56we're thinking outside the experiment now.
00:03:58We're going to move in together.
00:03:59Straight after the experiment,
00:04:01it's all kind of happening.
00:04:02Last dinner party.
00:04:04Do you remember the first dinner party?
00:04:06Yeah, it was so...
00:04:08exciting.
00:04:09What's going on?
00:04:11Hi, Phillip and Stella.
00:04:14They look relaxed, don't they?
00:04:15Very playful.
00:04:16For the first dinner party.
00:04:17Cheers.
00:04:18First dinner party.
00:04:20One of many.
00:04:21This is a very, very unique experience.
00:04:23Are you glad that you took the leap of faith?
00:04:25Yeah.
00:04:25I'm kind of glad that, yeah,
00:04:27I took the leap of faith and you were there.
00:04:30There's no doubt in my mind.
00:04:33We're in love.
00:04:34We're enjoying each other's company.
00:04:35We see the future together.
00:04:36What's there to, you know,
00:04:39to say anymore.
00:04:42The final week of the experiment
00:04:44has also left another couple stronger than ever.
00:04:48Looking real good.
00:04:49Yellow suits you.
00:04:50Thank you, baby.
00:04:51I'm so secure in my relationship with Stephen.
00:04:54I think our relationship is ready for the outside world.
00:04:57I think to our first dinner party.
00:04:59We were so scared.
00:05:02Oh, here we go.
00:05:04Hey!
00:05:09Everyone's like, hey!
00:05:11Who are you?
00:05:12And it's just like, oh, hello.
00:05:16Tonight's sort of like a little bit of a celebration for us.
00:05:19Look how far we've come with all the dinner parties we've had
00:05:22and I couldn't imagine doing this with anyone else besides you.
00:05:26Do I dare say that me and Rachel are probably one of the stronger couples?
00:05:30Lucky to have Rachel.
00:05:32Obviously, the hallways of maths always deliver on the rumour mill.
00:05:38I am really concerned about my girl, Alyssa.
00:05:41I know her and David are just in such a bad place.
00:05:45At last week's commitment ceremony,
00:05:48Alyssa was caught off guard by David's revelations.
00:05:52I have, you know, carried a lot of the emotional weight
00:05:55in the relationship.
00:05:57There has been times where I personally put my emotions aside
00:06:01just to make sure that there was peace.
00:06:04It feels like it is your way or you're not happy.
00:06:09I'm feeling very frustrated at this part of the experiment.
00:06:13This is our last couch session
00:06:15and I'm feeling like there has been some hold back.
00:06:17But when the couple watched the videos from the final test,
00:06:21it was David who was left shocked by Alyssa's behaviour.
00:06:25The question is though, who's going to get in trouble by the husbands?
00:06:27He's going to be mortified that I'm here with another man.
00:06:32What about him on a date with another girl?
00:06:33How does that make you feel?
00:06:34Ah, go for it.
00:06:36Yeah.
00:06:36Because I'm feeling, I'm feeling uncertain right now.
00:06:39You just met this guy who's spitting banter at you.
00:06:41The last thing you can do is give me some respect.
00:06:44Last thing.
00:06:44Do you know what?
00:06:45I'll own everything I said because I did nothing wrong.
00:06:48We all just chatted and stuff.
00:06:49I'm disappointed.
00:06:50Yeah.
00:06:50I'm disappointed too.
00:06:52I'm done.
00:06:54I deserve more than that.
00:06:56I'm done too.
00:06:57Here you go.
00:07:01Since their argument, the couple haven't spoken and are currently getting ready in separate
00:07:07apartments.
00:07:08I can't believe that I'm going into the dinner party solo tonight.
00:07:12Since Alyssa left, I have been emotionally a wreck.
00:07:18I didn't like what I saw on the video at the final test.
00:07:23You know, I saw Alyssa speak about me in a way that hurt me.
00:07:27And in my hurt, I took off my wedding ring.
00:07:30But at the end of the day, I'm not going to let a video ruin the whole relationship.
00:07:38I'm recognizing that the way I reacted, it wasn't right.
00:07:44Throwing off my ring wasn't because I didn't care for Alyssa.
00:07:47It's because I'd reached my limit.
00:07:49Alyssa didn't take accountability and she just focused on the criticism rather than seeing
00:07:55where I was coming from.
00:07:56And it felt like she didn't want to meet me halfway.
00:08:00I did nothing wrong.
00:08:01I said a few cheeky comments, which is my dry sense of humor.
00:08:06And when David took his ring off, it just sent me over the edge.
00:08:12It really hurt me a lot.
00:08:14And then knowing that he hasn't always been honest and authentic throughout this process,
00:08:17that's really disappointing because I just want to be real.
00:08:21You know, and I feel like I didn't get that back.
00:08:23So, final vows are approaching and I'm not sure about David and I and our future beyond
00:08:30the experiment.
00:08:31Can we even come back from this?
00:08:34While Alyssa is unsure how to move forward, for David, the time apart has given him clarity.
00:08:42I feel like me and Alyssa can work through this.
00:08:45Every day of this experiment, I have grown deep feelings.
00:08:50I know that if we can work through our differences, this could be something great.
00:08:55So, I got our rings back because I want to show her that I'm still here.
00:09:01I want to take this to the end.
00:09:03I want to take our relationship to outside of this experiment.
00:09:06So, tonight, I'm going to walk into this dinner party and I'm going to fight for this relationship.
00:09:11I'm going to walk in with our rings and I'm going to try and get my wife back.
00:09:19For Bec and Danny, the final test also led to a falling out after a disagreement over Bec's actions.
00:09:28You're getting his number.
00:09:29I'm not.
00:09:30He asked me and I said no.
00:09:32James, give it to me and I'll give it to her when she needs it later on.
00:09:34She will.
00:09:35What did I do?
00:09:37You sort of encouraged cheating almost.
00:09:39That is an absolute crock of shit.
00:09:41Bec, you took the number.
00:09:42I think you're creating an issue right now that's got to do with Gia and Scott.
00:09:46Not with you and I.
00:09:48Anything else that we need to talk about?
00:09:49Nothing.
00:09:50Excellent.
00:09:54But following the events of yesterday, this morning there's been yet another dramatic development.
00:10:04Cheers.
00:10:05Cheers.
00:10:07Danny and I had a little bit of an argument after watching the videos.
00:10:12But we made up and then we had really, really, really good sex about four times.
00:10:19And then he was like, you know, I'm falling in love with you.
00:10:25I want to be with you.
00:10:28And Daniel would never say something he didn't mean.
00:10:34So I couldn't be happier.
00:10:36I'm really proud of us for making it this far.
00:10:38Yep, we have conflicts.
00:10:39So does every other relationship.
00:10:41But we love each other.
00:10:43Cup is full at the moment.
00:10:46I'm in love.
00:10:48Are you proud of us?
00:10:50Very proud to get to get to here.
00:10:53It's good.
00:10:55Isn't it?
00:10:56Yeah.
00:10:58Um, how are you even back?
00:11:00Pretty, yeah, averagely good, I'd say.
00:11:02Like, we've had a bit of a turbulent week.
00:11:05Like, she's had a few moments, but we've got things back on track.
00:11:08But I'll be honest, it has put doubts in my mind.
00:11:12Cheers, baby.
00:11:13Cheers.
00:11:14Well, I wonder what's going to happen tonight, doll.
00:11:18Probably going to be an interesting one, to be fair.
00:11:20For sure.
00:11:22I think Scott will walk in alone because Gia left.
00:11:26All I've heard is that Gia and Scott have broken up.
00:11:29They're not together.
00:11:30She got on a plane, went back to Melbourne.
00:11:32I don't know if Gia's going to turn up tonight.
00:11:34What would you do if I left?
00:11:37What do you want me to do?
00:11:37Chase you to Adelaide?
00:11:39Yes.
00:11:39Absolutely.
00:11:40Never going to happen.
00:11:42I wouldn't even chase you to the door.
00:11:44Shut up.
00:11:45I wouldn't.
00:11:50Scott and Gia, I don't know if they've, like, broken up
00:11:53or if they've just separated,
00:11:56but she told me she was in Melbourne.
00:12:05As the couple speculate about Gia's shock exit...
00:12:13..the final chapter of her disappearing act
00:12:16is still yet to be told.
00:12:21And there's one groom that knows the truth.
00:12:32What do you know what I don't know?
00:12:35Well...
00:12:40Yesterday, I did come up in the lift.
00:12:46And out of nowhere...
00:12:55I saw Gia.
00:13:03So, she's obviously been here the whole time.
00:13:07She walked and she said that she's done.
00:13:09Yeah, she's done.
00:13:09She literally packed up everything and left.
00:13:15And she told us that she'd been back in Melbourne,
00:13:18you know, with her daughter.
00:13:21I called Scott.
00:13:23I said,
00:13:24Scotty, I'm just letting you know Gia's here.
00:13:26He's like, what?
00:13:41Gia was meant to go home to Melbourne when she left me.
00:13:45Turns out she wasn't even there.
00:13:47She was in Sydney the whole time.
00:13:50I've just been lied to her.
00:13:51And then using her daughter as emotional manipulation
00:13:54in terms of saying that her daughter was upset crying with her
00:13:57when all of it was a lie.
00:13:59But she never even flew back to Melbourne.
00:14:03I'm just...
00:14:04You don't do that.
00:14:06It's just inexcusable behaviour.
00:14:11And this to me has really...
00:14:15That's just drawn the line in the sand.
00:14:18I can't trust the person that I was falling in love with.
00:14:23She's abandoned me.
00:14:24She's lied to me.
00:14:26I wanted someone to be faithful and honest with me.
00:14:28And I feel like what she's done the last few days
00:14:31has shown me the person she is.
00:14:36Next.
00:14:43Hi.
00:14:45Gia makes her explosive return.
00:14:48It was a showmance.
00:14:49You guys don't know everything.
00:14:51As the last dinner party of the experiment goes out with a bang.
00:14:55All he does is use me for my body.
00:14:57Oh, come on.
00:14:58Can you cut the shit?
00:14:59Am I enough?
00:15:00I'm a single mother.
00:15:01Don't play that card.
00:15:02You can't play that card.
00:15:04Gia, I know more than you think.
00:15:21That's it.
00:15:22The last one.
00:15:24Final dance.
00:15:26You, baby.
00:15:28Well, here we are.
00:15:34The very final dinner party of the entire experiment.
00:15:38And it is a pivotal one because they're coming off a really big week.
00:15:41We sent them on their final test.
00:15:43And that final test this year we made non-negotiable.
00:15:47They all had to attend because in real life they will be facing situations
00:15:51where they're talking to people from the opposite sex.
00:15:53How do they actually show their commitment to their partner?
00:15:57That's right.
00:15:58Because at the end of the day they are very close to the final vows.
00:16:02Yeah.
00:16:02And right now they need to be getting as much information as they can
00:16:05to answer the question, can I take this relationship into the real world?
00:16:24We made it.
00:16:25It was the first one.
00:16:26Phillip and Stella.
00:16:28They're so excited to be the first ones in.
00:16:30I love it.
00:16:31What a buzz, huh?
00:16:32To be here.
00:16:33It's a strange to come here again.
00:16:35First one.
00:16:35It's just how we started.
00:16:37Gotta say, Stella's looking positively bridal tonight.
00:16:40Yeah.
00:16:41It'll be good to tell people how our week went.
00:16:44That was, yeah, that was probably one of the best dates that I've had.
00:16:48One of the best?
00:16:49It was like probably the best.
00:16:50One of the best?
00:16:50Yeah.
00:16:51One of the best?
00:16:52Their best?
00:16:52The best.
00:16:53The best.
00:16:53The best.
00:16:59Steve-O and Rach, here they are.
00:17:01Oh my God.
00:17:03Oh my God.
00:17:04Oh my God.
00:17:04Look at them.
00:17:06They've never looked stronger, more connected.
00:17:09Cheers, baby.
00:17:10They're just glowing as a couple.
00:17:14How was your final date?
00:17:15Yeah, how was the final date?
00:17:15It was amazing.
00:17:18Steven actually took me to Luna Park for the day.
00:17:21What?
00:17:21But what did you do then?
00:17:23Yeah, it was like a boat out at Palm Beach.
00:17:25Took it out.
00:17:25And you got a gift.
00:17:27Yeah, so I got a gift.
00:17:29She gave me a key to her place to kind of move in, like straight away.
00:17:33Oh.
00:17:34Yeah.
00:17:34She gave him a key.
00:17:36What?
00:17:36Oh, here we go.
00:17:38Stella.
00:17:40Hey.
00:17:40Straight in.
00:17:42Straight in.
00:17:43Whoa.
00:17:44Big step for these two.
00:17:46That is huge.
00:17:47That is huge for them.
00:17:48I waited for him for 32 years of my life.
00:17:50I don't want to wait anymore.
00:17:52I don't want to wait anymore.
00:17:53Me and Phillip, we came, we found each other, we fell in love.
00:17:58And we were walking out together.
00:18:00It's a very clear sign.
00:18:02And yeah, I think we did things right.
00:18:04Yeah, we're not wasting time though.
00:18:12Feeling a bit nervous.
00:18:14This wasn't how I imagined going into the final dinner party.
00:18:18But fortunately, three months of this experiment and it's come all down to this.
00:18:28My intentions tonight are very clear.
00:18:32I'm there to try and fight for this relationship.
00:18:36And go and get my girl.
00:18:37Go and get my wife.
00:18:48What up?
00:18:50Nooo!
00:18:50What up?!
00:18:51Oh no!
00:18:54So disappointing.
00:18:55I was not expecting that.
00:18:56You did not expect that.
00:18:57Oh no, what's happened?
00:18:59Hi, you big dog.
00:19:00Good mate, looking sharp.
00:19:02you darling it's certainly very unexpected because they've been a strong couple during this experiment
00:19:07and showing a lot of strength and stability in the midst of drama around them really working as a

00:25:11oh my gosh just give me a second you're all right
00:25:15just feeling overwhelmed okay that must be really hard for david to be shut down like that
00:25:22just difficult all together because they've been so strong from the beginning and having this
00:25:27dinner party the last one be the one where they walk in separately and and are clearly in turmoil
00:25:34and it's a very different dynamic to observe yeah oh wow you look oh beautiful so pretty
00:25:41how are you honey um yeah not too bad we had a bit of a fight on the video task
00:25:50um
00:25:52obviously david was really upset which resulted in him standing up and taking his ring off and
00:25:59saying i'm done watching the ipads for me it it broke my heart and i kept trying to point out
00:26:06points
00:26:06in the video where like i felt disrespected and she kept defending herself i was hurt bro so in the
00:26:12heat of the moment i did the wrong thing and i took the ring off okay but he made a
00:26:17statement that he's
00:26:18wearing his ring i don't have mine i threw it at him do you think she's had enough time for
00:26:25you to
00:26:25chat to her now before things get too hectic and yeah i really want to chat to her yeah good
00:26:29luck good
00:26:30luck good luck good luck sorry to interrupt girls i'm so sorry to interrupt elisa do you mind
00:26:40speaking to me oh babe can i just like finish talking to the girls i understand i just i just
00:26:46think
00:26:47it'd be appropriate for us to have a quick chat just over there the girls you don't have to move
00:26:51it's all right i i'm not going to sit here to come on this but rachel can stay just a
00:26:56quick chat i know
00:26:56you're uncomfortable i know you're uncomfortable i think it's a good time it's all right
00:27:05yeah um yeah i wanted wanted to start off by saying
00:27:10what i did taking off the ring was the wrong thing to do regardless of the circumstances
00:27:17regardless what we were going through and i want to say i'm sorry that i did that
00:27:25the moment i took off my ring it was not because i wouldn't do anything to make this work
00:27:31i am not done with us and i really want to sit here today to hear what you have to
00:27:38say and
00:27:38understand it wow i mean he's laying it all out the table he's got one chance here yeah
00:27:51well i don't know how you go from watching a video that i don't even think i did anything wrong
00:27:57i
00:27:57think you were just vulnerable in that moment was i just being my loud bubbly dry sense of humor self
00:28:03yes was i having fun yes but that is who i am you obviously don't know me and to feel
00:28:09like in that
00:28:11moment that was all too hard for you that you took off your ring and you said you're done it
00:28:18sucks
00:28:20it really sucks and like i can't pretend that everything's okay when it's not because it's not
00:28:27babe david's he's owned it he's very earnest and sincere and she's showing an absolute lack of
00:28:35flexibility too and essentially saying this is who i am this is how i will behave
00:28:41take me or leave me i know how you felt the video for you wasn't much when i heard the
00:28:47jokes and the
00:28:48things you were saying it hurt me babe because i care about you so much
00:28:55and i'm here because i want to fight for this and i also brought something
00:29:05i want you to know how much you mean to me
00:29:10oh god he's on his knee oh what is going on here
00:29:27it's the moment australia's been waiting waiting for this is the night she finally unloads
00:29:40yeah i've lied yeah i've done the wrong thing i'm trying to move on now tonight after the dinner party
00:29:46on stan
00:29:55i want you to know how much you mean to me oh god he's on his knee oh is he
00:30:02proposing is he he's on one
00:30:04then let's not let's not make it a scene and i know i've heard you and i know it's not
00:30:11an easy fix
00:30:12but i don't give a because i haven't put enough passion into showing you how much you mean to me
00:30:18and i care about you alissa i care about you and i love you
00:30:27emotions were high and i walked away from someone that was the love of my life i literally cannot walk
00:30:33away knowing that this ring is never coming off again
00:30:47okay
00:30:56she's giving him nothing giving him nothing shall we go back let's go back
00:31:05i cannot believe that was her response to him getting on his knees and saying that he loves her
00:31:12he just poured her heart out to her how'd you go yeah okay i told alissa that i loved her
00:31:20and i meant
00:31:21it with all my heart but alissa is obviously still upset it's so scary final vows around the corner
00:31:27and my relationship is uncertain the only thing i've got to hold on to is the fact that i've got
00:31:33the ring back on her finger you know that's progress just keep going yeah we'll see how we go yeah
00:31:40do you think just on shooting around him no um he apologized he told me he loved me and he
00:31:48put my ring
00:31:48back on this is lovely yeah so just all right i'm just trying to process everything because like
00:31:58you know not even like 48 hours ago he's taking off his ring and said he was done and now
00:32:05he's telling
00:32:05me he loves me and i'm just like oh my god i'm so confused i'm confused i just need a
00:32:11minute how do
00:32:12you feel um very confused very confused do you believe what he said are you ready to talk about
00:32:18or do you just need to like no i don't want to talk about it take a minute take a
00:32:21minute
00:32:28it feels weird being in this car alone it's the last dinner party and i never thought in a million
00:32:34years i'd do this whole experiment thinking that i'm going to leave with jia and then this last car
00:32:40on she's not in the car with me i do feel a few nerves coming through because i just don't
00:32:47know what
00:32:48to expect oh here's scott he looks defeated doesn't he how many times does scott sit opposite us
00:33:04at commitment ceremonies saying we're amazing i'm in love with this woman what has happened here
00:33:11good to see you brian good good to see you man how are you good to see you buddy yeah
00:33:15yeah i'm
00:33:16all right good to see obviously j is not here yeah so come come sit and tell us what you
00:33:21want us to tell
00:33:25i found out a lot of things lately and i'm extremely
00:33:28fully like i'm so upset like i'm shaking i just it all come crashing literally from the date like
00:33:35jill wanted to leave the experiment i just couldn't work out why
00:33:38she said it's the pressure and then i hate this um i just you're okay babe i just
00:33:45safe space because she got she she's not saying to me um
00:33:52she says you're not leaving she didn't want to go to the date and then she got in an uber
00:33:58and left me
00:34:01and then i went to the bar to go with her yeah well she went she was so frustrated and
00:34:06then she
00:34:07called me and she gave me an ultimatum but this is the thing like why can't we finish the experiment
00:34:11together i was about to go to foreign hours i want to be with her why didn't you because i'm
00:34:15sick of
00:34:15doing everything for her this is the first time i said no the whole experience i've been yes man
00:34:20this is the first time i put my step forward my foot forward and i said i'm not leaving
00:34:27and then she went to melbourne apparently and texted me she went to melbourne but this is the thing
00:34:32i found out she never went to melbourne
00:34:38she emotionally manipulated me she never and said that she was with her daughter hugging her saying all
00:34:44this stuff which made me so upset and disgusted oh my god what is this so did she not go
00:34:51back to
00:34:52melbourne found out she was drinking at a bar in sydney she's called everyone to tell them that she's in
00:34:58melbourne she's in sydney the whole time she's played him manipulated him lied to him i really feel for
00:35:10scott because he's thrown everything into this he's treated gia like a princess
00:35:18and this isn't the only thing we all saw each other's glasses greener
00:35:23and i left in 15 seconds instead she said my relationship's she said i mass finishes in a week
00:35:31you'll find me yeah she said have you got money she did say have you got money i only date
00:35:36guys that
00:35:36have money there is so much stuff i've witnessed she did oh no i mean we create the final test
00:35:44to see
00:35:44how they deal with boundaries and gia sounds like she failed it i'm absolutely disgusted ashamed and i
00:35:53feel so upset because what i did was show how much i cared about it and i've just been used
00:36:01and i was falling in love with someone that just me over
00:36:18i'm coming to the dinner party tonight because i just need answers
00:36:22i need to know what the hell happened i left the final date because to be honest i broke down
00:36:32and i mean i miss my daughter i miss home
00:36:36so i got in the uber and sort of gave him the ultimatum like it's me or this experiment
00:36:43and then he chose not to leave with me
00:36:47i tried to call him three times i left him a voicemail
00:36:52he totally ghosted me
00:36:56after three months of this experiment and me being in love with him
00:37:04i just hope all of you guys one thing i beg for is just to be honest with each other
00:37:08because this
00:37:08is what's torn my relationship apart no she's actually in love with me but it's the emotional
00:37:13manipulation that she does she genuinely lies to me i can't be with someone who lies to me
00:37:19there's so much clarity in the way that scott is expressing himself tonight we haven't seen him be
00:37:26this direct about what's actually happening between them i haven't had a voice i haven't
00:37:32been able to stand up and i've been a shell for a long time i feel like i've been emotionally
00:37:36manipulated and i feel like i've been lied to this whole experiment do you think that there's a
00:37:49chance scott no i'm done
00:38:06oh
00:38:08hi
00:38:12she's arrived hi the moment gia walked in
00:38:20my heart just immediately dropped
00:38:25i'm shaking i didn't want to look at her because i know it you know it makes me upset
00:38:30i feel sick hi doll
00:38:34big hug from beck i i am baffled that's a friendship we don't understand they were enemies
00:38:41it hasn't been a friendship i don't know what gia's intentions are tonight i feel like she's going
00:38:53to make excuses for all of her behavior and lying and i'm not going to fall for it anymore
00:39:00beck's going to tell her everything i just said right now
00:39:07what do you need to talk about g do they all know that you apparently lied about being in love
00:39:19straight true man stay true what else am i up against he said he's been manipulated this whole
00:39:27time by you for me this is your time to speak up
00:39:32i don't care i don't care you have support from pretty much almost everyone yeah i don't really
00:39:40want to do the dinner party
00:39:45dinner is served
00:39:49just stay just stay
00:39:52it's okay it's okay it's okay i think gia isn't as confident as she probably lets on
00:40:07let's get her out of the room i think that her and scott do have something real so i do
00:40:20have a plan
00:40:21and i want her to fight give it everything you've got babe this is your only chance for me i
00:40:28need you
00:40:28to stay here i need you to stay here okay

00:40:39where is everyone and beck and gia are not here they're not at the table

00:40:53say i'm not relax i'm there
00:41:02we can do this i would not tell you to stay if i didn't think there was a chance of
00:41:07getting
00:41:07through to him i can see that he loves you it's all going to be okay but you have to
00:41:12stay here you

00:42:37you
00:42:38oh let's get it mate
00:42:48final dinner party okay this is it
00:42:52and i think it's pretty clear for the cocktail party tonight that there's still a lot that needs to be
00:42:58said. Where is everyone? And Becca and Gia are not here. They're not at the table. Becca and Gia are
00:43:06away. We'll wait for everyone to come. Get your head in the game, girl. Remember the plan.
00:43:21He's had his moment. This is your moment now.
00:43:25This is your moment now. Yes? Yeah.
00:43:48Oh, and he's Becca and Gia now.
00:43:52Whoa, sit your ass down.
00:44:03Here we are. Last to the party, y'all.
00:44:09Cheers. Cheers. Cheers, honey. Come on. Cheers. You've got this. Steve-o. Cheers, Scott. Steve-o needs me hanging. Cheers.
00:44:19Hey, baby. Cheers.
00:44:22Alissa, David, cheers. Let's tuck in, ladies and gentlemen.
00:44:43Oh, look. Everything's gone silent. It sure has. Scott and Gia haven't spoken all night. Now they've got to sit
00:44:49next to each other.
00:44:50Honey? I think this is the most uncomfortable we've ever seen Gia look.
00:45:07It's okay. It's okay. Do you know what we're doing tonight? We're going in with calm kindness. Okay? All right?
00:45:26So, guys, I'm going to actually say something. I think that Gia and Scott currently are in a really, really
00:45:35awful position.
00:45:38Right now I'm seeing some really, really, really sad, sad moments. Gia, I would like you to read what you
00:45:46wrote, please.
00:45:48I would. I would like you to read what you wrote, please. Okay.
00:45:56Scott, I'd like you to receive it and then say goodbye or not, but I think it's important.
00:46:05Can everyone just not talk for just, like, two minutes if that's okay?
00:46:15Oh, God. You've got this. It's your time. Come on. You can do it. I'll start for you. Dear Scott.
00:46:37Dear Scott.
00:46:46This hurts in a way I didn't think it could.
00:46:50When I entered this experiment, I was incredibly hard-shelled,
00:46:53but over time you softened me and I thank you for bringing that sight back out of me.
00:46:57I put my life on the line to enter this experiment
00:47:00and I was blown away with how fast-paced our connection was
00:47:03and how you made me feel seen, heard and protected.
00:47:06Before I knew it, this single mum was introducing a new partner to her beautiful daughter.
00:47:13People don't understand how terrifying that is and I was really scared.
00:47:17Not only did I put my heart into finding someone and believing I found that person,
00:47:22but my heart isn't the only one you hurt.
00:47:24And you made me feel something that I haven't felt in a really long time.
00:47:32I fell in love with you, honestly, deeply.
00:47:36Scott, I'm going to be completely raw with you.
00:47:39I came back tonight to not leave and to show you that I'm here
00:47:42to bare my soul, not for the cameras, but for you.
00:48:07Scott, you okay?
00:48:10I really appreciate it, but...
00:48:13Gia, I know more than you think.
00:48:21I have caught you out lying to me a lot.
00:48:26And you know what?
00:48:27I'm just going to smack this out now,
00:48:29because I planned something I didn't tell anyone,
00:48:31but I actually wrote one too.
00:48:33Holy shit.
00:48:34All right, here you go.
00:48:37Ooh.
00:48:38It's my time to talk.
00:48:45And I really acknowledge everything you said, but it's my time.
00:48:49I thought this was the best thing to do for our relationship.
00:48:54I came into this experiment with the highest hopes of finding someone
00:48:57that I would have something real with.
00:49:05I was so excited about the person I would be meeting and what our relationship would become,
00:49:10knowing I would be committing myself wholeheartedly.
00:49:13Prior to entering the experiment, I said two of the most important attributes to me are,
00:49:17I wanted someone honest and with the same morals as me.
00:49:25I have felt throughout this experience, I have tried to be the best man I can for Gia.
00:49:31I'm f***ing shaking.
00:49:33It's okay.
00:49:33It's all right, bro.
00:49:34Take your time, bro.
00:49:35Take your time.
00:49:38This hurts.
00:49:42I don't like doing this.
00:49:47I have cared deeply for her during our time together,
00:49:51and naturally my feelings were forming for her and our relationship.
00:49:57Sadly though, this was never enough to appease Gia.
00:50:00I have met daily criticisms, believing comments and threats of being left single as,
00:50:05and I quote, a line of six men would be waiting for a girl like me and desperate to have
00:50:09me.
00:50:17At times, I felt unable to voice the truth surrounding what was going on in our relationship
00:50:22out of the loyalty and respect I had towards Gia.
00:50:25I've come to realize that no matter what I do or say isn't going to change who she is.
00:50:29At this point, enough has been done and said to let me and everyone else know exactly who Gia is
00:50:35and what she stands for.
00:50:38Morally, we aren't aligned.
00:50:40We hold different values of what a relationship should be.
00:50:42I can't be with a woman who behind my back proclaims to the first guy who looks her way,
00:50:47I only date men with money and who will pay for everything.
00:50:51This is what I witnessed when watching the video of Gia with grasses greener,
00:50:54along with so much more.
00:50:56You told me you had flown home to Melbourne in tears inconsolable,
00:51:00but I came to find out that you were still in Sydney drinking at a bar.
00:51:06I'm not sure what it is that you're looking for, Gia,
00:51:09but I can tell you're not the one for me.
00:51:11We are a different caliber...
00:51:15..of people.
00:51:16I'm sorry, but I'm done.
00:51:19Scott!
00:51:20Marty!
00:51:22No!
00:51:23I'm done.
00:51:25Come on now!
00:51:40You told me you had flown home to Melbourne in tears inconsolable,
00:51:44but I came to find out that you were still in Sydney drinking at a bar.
00:51:48I'm not sure what it is that you're looking for, Gia,
00:51:50but I can tell you're not the one for me.
00:51:52We are a different caliber.
00:51:56..of people.
00:51:58Sorry, but I'm done.
00:52:00Oh!
00:52:01Scott!
00:52:02Marty!
00:52:03No!
00:52:07Come on now!
00:52:12I'm done.
00:52:17Oh, no.
00:52:20Ah!
00:52:21Wow!
00:52:22There you go.
00:52:23I'm so disappointed.
00:52:25I was not expecting that.
00:52:26Did not expect that.
00:52:32Scott!
00:52:34I'm proud of you.
00:52:35I'm not doing it anymore.
00:52:36It's okay.
00:52:36I'm proud of you, bro.
00:52:42I feel you, man.
00:52:44You...
00:52:44I'm proud of you, man.
00:52:45At the end of the day, you spoke your truth.
00:52:47You spoke well.
00:52:49I can't be with someone like that.
00:52:50No, you can't.
00:52:51I looked at Gia when you were reading that, and no emotion.
00:52:54The fact that you can still sit there, you did the right thing.
00:52:57And she's blown it for herself.
00:53:01She just lied to me.
00:53:08The fact that Gia lied to Scott, saying that she was in Melbourne, you know, with her daughter, is absolutely
00:53:14disgusting.
00:53:16She's proven that, A, she cannot be trusted.
00:53:19She tells lies.
00:53:21She tries to manipulate people.
00:53:24I cannot stand by that behaviour.
00:53:27I think the way Gia's treated Scott is just totally messed up.
00:53:32You don't lie to people that you love.
00:53:39I do think Gia gave it a really good go tonight.
00:53:41I think that she wrote a letter and spoke really vulnerably.
00:53:46And, you know what?
00:53:47Kudos to any woman that can sit there with a man that's been ignoring you and say,
00:53:52I love you.
00:53:53This is how I feel.
00:53:55But, he doesn't love you back.
00:53:59And, I can't do anything to fix it.
00:54:02Sorry.
00:54:06So now let me say a few things here, shall I?
00:54:13So, at the end of the day, it was a showmance.
00:54:19He played me.
00:54:20And, the last two weeks, he's been playing me.
00:54:23There's been a lot of different things that I've noticed, which I've kept quiet about.
00:54:29He never reassures me.
00:54:31He never tells me I look beautiful before a dinner party.
00:54:33He never tells me I'm sexy.
00:54:37All he does is use me for my body.
00:54:39He has sex with me, but he'll never fall in love with me.
00:54:41Oh, come on. Stop.
00:54:42He'll have sex with me, but he'll never fall in love with me.
00:54:43Stop right there.
00:54:44Can you cut the shit?
00:54:45I'm not cutting the shit.
00:54:46He's just gone for the last three days and had his moment.
00:54:48I haven't had mine.
00:54:50He had three months of showing you how much he cared for you.
00:54:52You've had the whole experiment where you're literally contradicting everything that you've said.
00:54:55You haven't seen what I've seen and had what I've heard.
00:54:57He had three months of showing how much he cared for you.
00:54:59When?
00:55:00With action, not words.
00:55:01What was his action?
00:55:02When I made him one-on-one, nothing but the kind words about you.
00:55:06Nothing but the kind words about you.
00:55:09Always looking after you.
00:55:10Always having it first.
00:55:11Is it ever enough?
00:55:13Oh, am I enough?
00:55:14I'm a single mother.
00:55:14Is it ever enough of him showing?
00:55:16No, no, no.
00:55:17Am I enough?
00:55:18I'm a single mother.
00:55:19Yes, you are enough.
00:55:19Yes, you are enough.
00:55:20Oh, really?
00:55:21Don't play that card.
00:55:22You can't play that card.
00:55:23Oh, God.
00:55:24Can you shush?
00:55:24You can't play.
00:55:25I'll tell you why I'm not good enough.
00:55:28Every time I drink wine, he shames me for it.
00:55:31Whenever I swear, when you and I hung out, he told me I can't be friends with her.
00:55:36Controlling.
00:55:37It's like, you cannot be hanging out with Bec.
00:55:40You guys don't know everything.
00:55:44Gia's always been able to handball whatever issues she's made onto someone else, putting
00:55:50it back on them.
00:55:51Just being caught lying a lot of times, it's just, it's hard to believe what you're saying.
00:55:55Do you understand?
00:55:55Philip, when you say you're in Melbourne with your daughter and you're not.
00:56:00What?
00:56:02She's shown her true colours from day dot.
00:56:05It's lies.
00:56:06It's BS.
00:56:06It's just, it's main character syndrome.
00:56:08It's zero accountability.
00:56:10It's, it's just Gia.
00:56:12Were you in Melbourne?
00:56:14No, I wasn't.
00:56:15You said you were, babe.
00:56:17I know.
00:56:18I went to the airport, checked in, put my bags on a flight.
00:56:22I got my bags off the flight and I got a hotel.
00:56:25Because I would, I stupidly thought he would chase me.
00:56:31I did lie.
00:56:32Okay.
00:56:35I did stay in Sydney.
00:56:36You know, I, I didn't want to tell anyone because I didn't want anyone knowing I was coming
00:56:39to the dinner party.
00:56:41Um, yeah, my mum and daughter flew to, flew to Sydney.
00:56:44I wanted to be here in case of the moment where he would go, oh, okay, maybe, maybe I'll
00:56:49call her.
00:56:50I thought he would reach out and go, oh God, she's really gone.
00:56:53I miss her.
00:56:53I thought there would be, I thought he chased me.
00:56:56I'm sorry.
00:56:56I'm a girl.
00:56:57I thought there'd be something in him that made him want to find me and chase me.
00:57:00And unfortunately that wasn't the case.
00:57:03Scott is under the impression that you were in Melbourne, hugging your daughter and upset.
00:57:10That's why there's this narrative.
00:57:12Like we all do.
00:57:13That's right.
00:57:14Right.
00:57:14Fair enough.
00:57:16I think you and Scott need a private moment.
00:57:18I do.
00:57:19Won't give me that.
00:57:19Again, he's ghosted me for the last three days.
00:57:22Do you love him?
00:57:23Yep.
00:57:24Yep.
00:57:25Then get up and go and speak to him.
00:57:30Go fire for it.
00:57:31If you really want this, babe, if you love him, fire for it.
00:57:38Yes, we've had fights.
00:57:39Yes, I've self-sabotaged.
00:57:40I'm willing to admit that I'm wrong.
00:57:42I stayed in Sydney because I wanted to fight for this relationship because the last three
00:57:46months have meant everything to me and I don't feel like it's over.
00:57:48That's my fault.
00:57:49Don't wait.
00:58:10Oh, my God.
00:58:29I'm sorry.
00:58:31Sorry, too.
00:58:32I just want you to know that when I was in Sydney, I flew my mum and my daughter here
00:58:37and they were with me.
00:58:37I approved of it.
00:58:38And I was with them Friday night and I stayed in Sydney because I thought you would chase me and
00:58:42you didn't.
00:58:44I'm sorry.
00:58:47I'm not.
00:58:48I'm done.
00:58:49I'm exhausted.
00:58:50I'm exhausted and I feel like you've just kept lying to me.
00:58:52I haven't, though.
00:58:53I haven't, though.
00:58:54I haven't, though.
00:58:56What you said at Christ's Green, you have no idea what I've seen.
00:58:59And you don't know what happened.
00:59:00I didn't even say it out loud.
00:59:01You don't know what happened 90% of the time.
00:59:03Did they tell you?
00:59:04You said to me, relationships, ****.
00:59:06Because it was, babe.
00:59:07It was.
00:59:08This was the album war arguing.
00:59:10Do you not remember?
00:59:11We weren't good.
00:59:12You said to old mate, maths finishes in a week.
00:59:15You know where to find me.
00:59:16I'll be posted all over maths.
00:59:18Scott.
00:59:20I feel like, honestly, I've seen enough.
00:59:26Scott, let me just say this.
00:59:29I've never in my life chased a man.
00:59:31Ever.
00:59:32I don't **** about the cameras.
00:59:33I came with the only one who the **** who's listening.
00:59:35I literally came back to this dinner party for you.
00:59:39You were worth it to me.
00:59:40I am so in love with you.
00:59:42I've done everything I can.
00:59:44That's it.
00:59:45Like, I'm sorry.
00:59:48I'm really sorry.
00:59:52I just feel like I've been locked to.
00:59:56I've seen too much.
00:59:58What?
00:59:59I can't do this anymore.
01:00:01Yeah.
01:00:03Yeah.
01:00:04Can I have a hug?
01:00:05Because I'm going to go.
01:00:07All the best.
01:00:14Okay.
01:00:16Bye.
01:00:23Can you do mic me, please?
01:00:25The word is now.
01:00:26Or I'll rip it off, so it's fine.
01:00:28I understand.
01:00:29Please don't.
01:00:29Please don't.
01:00:30No.
01:00:30No.
01:00:32They're going to have to help me get it off then.
01:00:40Not **** talking again.
01:00:43I just want my phone.
01:00:44And I want...
01:00:46Oh, yeah.
01:00:46And I need this mic off.
01:00:48Oh, now.
01:00:49I just want to go home.
01:00:51I'm actually going to leave and go on a flight to Melbourne.
01:00:54I cannot wait.
01:00:55**** done.
01:00:57I feel like I've just got a massive weight off my shoulder.
01:01:00I can't wait to get my car and drive home.
01:01:02I'm telling you, there's no coming back.
01:01:05No way.
01:01:06I can't wait to go.
01:01:07I can't wait to go.
01:01:09Can we...
01:01:10Can we shift?
01:01:11Maybe make them more of a group.
01:01:12Let's make a group, yeah.
01:01:13Anyway, let's try and have a good night.
01:01:15Yeah.
01:01:15This should be a celebration.
01:01:17It's our last dinner party.
01:01:18We've got to the end.
01:01:19We've all had highs, lows.
01:01:21Cheers.
01:01:22Cheers, cheers, cheers.
01:01:23Cheers.
01:01:24Cheers.
01:01:25Cheers.
01:01:26I've been reflecting on the experiment quite a bit these last few days and it's sad and
01:01:31happy and exciting at the same time.
01:01:34I'm not a man that likes change.
01:01:36However, it's time for us to leave the nest too.
01:01:39It's like the mother bird saying, it's time to fly now, kitties.
01:01:43Let's go.
01:01:44Me and Rachel have fought for this and look where we are now.
01:01:49We're coming out of this really strong.
01:01:52Look, I'm very proud of Rachel and I'm proud of us as well.
01:01:59Rachel and Stevo have been a joy to watch throughout this experiment
01:02:02because the journey, whilst it's been slower and it's been very much at their pace,
01:02:07every single week we've seen growth.
01:02:09Yes.
01:02:09And look at them now.
01:02:10And we're so close now to the end.
01:02:14Yeah.
01:02:14To see them all loved up like this is fantastic.
01:02:17I'll always remember this experience and I'm super blessed to walk away stronger than ever with Stella.
01:02:24We had a spark from the start.
01:02:26I knew that this was my person.
01:02:28Yeah, I'm just pumped and excited for the future with you.
01:02:33Every woman on earth deserves the transparency and honesty that he gave me throughout this whole experiment.
01:02:43I came with my heart wide open.
01:02:46I wore my heart on my sleeve.
01:02:49But I knew the chances are quite low.
01:02:53To meet people, that you are actually alive.
01:02:58Yeah.
01:02:59I asked for the experts to be the love story.
01:03:04And I'm living with my wish granted.
01:03:10You got keys.
01:03:12You got the keys.
01:03:13You got the keys, mate.
01:03:14Cheers, guys.
01:03:16Cheers, cheers.
01:03:17Cheers, baby.
01:03:18Come here.
01:03:20We should all be very f***ing proud of what we've done here.
01:03:25Tonight, I'm sitting at that table and I'm not even really worried or concerned about any of the other couples.
01:03:31I'm concerned about my relationship.
01:03:34I'm concerned about me and David right now and how we're going to even make it to the outside world.
01:03:40Cheers.
01:03:41Guys.
01:03:42Guys.
01:03:45Sorry.
01:03:47But you know what?
01:03:48Hola says, I'm glad that some of you have found love.
01:03:51But it's not all f***ing perfect.
01:03:54It's not always rainbows and sunshine.
01:03:58And this is not where I wanted my relationship to be.
01:04:03The last week has been a whirlwind of emotion.
01:04:08He blindsided me at the last commitment ceremony.
01:04:10And then after the final test, he takes his ring off and he leaves me.
01:04:16And now he's telling me he loves me.
01:04:18And I'm just kind of like, what the f***?
01:04:22It sucks to be sitting here tonight feeling the disconnect between us.
01:04:28Yes, he put my ring on.
01:04:29Yes, he said sorry.
01:04:30But just because he's apologised doesn't mean you can click your fingers and it's all better.
01:04:36What sucks for me is like, I can't make her see like, any different than how she feels.
01:04:41And I'm not trying to change how she feels.
01:04:43I'm accepting how you feel.
01:04:44But I just want you to know that it f***ing hurts me.
01:04:48I feel like taking off the ring was the wrong thing to do.
01:04:51And I'm not proud of it.
01:04:53But I'm here tonight because I didn't give up on love.
01:04:56I didn't give up on her.
01:04:57I love this woman.
01:04:59And in the past, I've walked away from things when things got hard.
01:05:03But knowing that I love her and how I feel towards her is real.
01:05:07Right now, it is so much uncertainty with my relationship with Alyssa.
01:05:12But like, I came here tonight to fight because I know that we have something great.
01:05:17Me and Alyssa have gone through ups and downs.
01:05:20I have challenged Alyssa.
01:05:21We have worked through stuff.
01:05:23Do you know what? I feel like I don't know this person.
01:05:28I understand that you're upset and you're angry.
01:05:31But you're saying you don't know this person?
01:05:34This person has showed you who he is time and time again.
01:05:38I'm not perfect. My love isn't perfect.
01:05:40But I'm here to fight for what we have.
01:05:43I'm not even pleading.
01:05:44I'm saying, you know, I'm extending my olive branch tonight.
01:05:48I'm dropping my ego.
01:05:50I'm here because I love Alyssa.
01:05:52And all I'm asking you to do is open your heart and not lock it off like this.
01:05:57That's literally why I'm here.
01:05:59Because I know where my heart's at despite everything.
01:06:02He's a good man, babe.
01:06:02He's actually a good man.
01:06:05Great man.
01:06:07Great woman, great man right here.
01:06:11But also, do you know what in my eyes?
01:06:15I've seen a side of this person in the last week that I don't know.
01:06:19To take your ring off, that is a red flag for me.
01:06:25That to me is toxic.
01:06:28My feelings have changed towards you and you just have to go my pace right now.
01:06:39I went to look for some advice and I got a slap in the face.
01:06:42What happened?
01:06:45I've quit my job, but I need to find a way to pay for the bills.
01:06:49Hopefully I can become an artist and sell enough pieces to do that.
01:06:52I thought it was just a good idea to go visit some art galleries.
01:06:55Yeah.
01:06:55I met up with this guy.
01:06:56He's been in the industry for over 65 years.
01:06:59Yeah, it was just a bit, it was a bit scary.
01:07:03And tell me what, have you got aspirations and a plan and ambition and so on?
01:07:08I don't know about a planned shirt.
01:07:10Yeah, right.
01:07:10Ambition, yeah, for sure.
01:07:14Now, have you got something to show me today?
01:07:16I actually do.
01:07:17So that's the last one.
01:07:19I think I got the collar just right to match with your shoes.
01:07:22Well, you're certainly making your presence film.
01:07:24It's not necessarily the sort of work that we show here.
01:07:27That was quite brutal to me.
01:07:29Yeah?
01:07:29Yeah, it was a reality check kind of thing.
01:07:32But I'll tell you the bad news is you can't wake up in the morning and decide to be an
01:07:35artist.
01:07:36Uh-huh.
01:07:36You won't make any money for a long time.
01:07:38You may never make any money.
01:07:39So it's a long slow.
01:07:41In today's world, too many things are called good when they're not.
01:07:44Being an artist, it's a job.
01:07:46It's as difficult as rowing to Tasmania in an open boat without a compass.
01:07:50Don't do it.
01:07:51Do something else.
01:07:53I thought he was just going to be nice and gentle.
01:07:56Yeah, go.
01:07:57You're doing great, sweetie.
01:07:59And that's not what it sounded like.
01:08:00You have to learn how to paint.
01:08:03It's like an apprenticeship.
01:08:03You've got to go and learn how to do it.
01:08:05You can't not go to art school.
01:08:07You've got to go.
01:08:08You don't know, right?
01:08:09I don't know.
01:08:10Well, apparently you're the expert, so guess I'm going to art school.
01:08:13Yeah.
01:08:14Be truthful about what you're doing and find your own way of expressing it.
01:08:18You've got to be careful of people saying how marvellous you are.
01:08:22I've seen you at art, though.
01:08:23Like, isn't an artist meant to be the person and what they create?
01:08:27You can't teach that, right?
01:08:30Surely you just need to lean into finding someone who is, I guess, leaning into the future of art, right?
01:08:36And isn't saying you need to go to art school.
01:08:39You can't not go to art school.
01:08:43I think we need to also find a female for you to look at and see what she has to
01:08:48say.
01:08:48So maybe that's what I need to find next.
01:08:50Yeah.
01:09:00I know where my heart's at despite everything.
01:09:02He's a good man, babe.
01:09:02He's actually a good man.
01:09:05Great man.
01:09:06Great woman, great man right here.
01:09:10But also, do you know what in my eyes?
01:09:14I've seen a side of this person in the last week that I don't know.
01:09:18To take your ring off, that is a red flag for me.
01:09:23That, to me, is toxic.
01:09:26My feelings have changed towards you and you just have to go my pace right now.
01:09:32I know that David is head over heels in love with me, but right now I'm hurting a lot.
01:09:37And my feelings have changed.
01:09:40I'm not in love with David.
01:09:45I never once left your side.
01:09:47I never once took my ring off.
01:09:50I never once did anything to sabotage the relationship.
01:09:56You, on the other hand, have shot yourself in the foot.
01:09:59We're in the last week of the experiment and I'm feeling very hurt.
01:10:04Really, really hurt.
01:10:09I'm not gonna tell David, I love you.
01:10:12I'm not gonna tell David, okay, everything's back to normal.
01:10:15Let's go to bed together tonight.
01:10:17Like, I'm not that girl.
01:10:18I'm sorry.
01:10:20It doesn't work like that.
01:10:21I'm a real bitch.
01:10:22I'm authentic.
01:10:23I don't around.
01:10:25Alyssa, I know how you feel.
01:10:27How do you know how I feel?
01:10:29You don't know how I feel, babe.
01:10:31Because of the last commitment ceremony that made you feel like I blindsided you.
01:10:36No, but you lied, babe.
01:10:38How did I lie, Alyssa?
01:10:39You said everything was great and it wasn't.
01:10:41It wasn't.
01:10:43And that sucks because it was a missed opportunity.
01:10:46That is hurt to me.
01:10:49I'm a children woman.
01:10:50I've been in long-term relationships.
01:10:52I've done this way too many times before.
01:10:54To sit here and be like, I'm okay with that.
01:10:58And I feel like he has danced around shit.
01:11:01I have not.
01:11:02I feel like you have.
01:11:03You have brought up some things.
01:11:04Can I tell you, I'm sorry to cut you off, babe.
01:11:09Feels like nothing I'm saying to Alyssa, nothing I'm doing is good enough.
01:11:12It feels like, ultimately, she doesn't want to hear it.
01:11:17I don't know what else I need to do for Alyssa to know that my heart is in the right
01:11:21place.
01:11:22I apologise to you, Alyssa.
01:11:23I want to say I own that.
01:11:24Yeah, but babe, you took your ring off.
01:11:25You did all the things that you shouldn't have done.
01:11:27I own that.
01:11:27And I did that because...
01:11:28And I never did that to you, babe.
01:11:30I know you never did that to me.
01:11:30I've shown you every side of me.
01:11:32I know.
01:11:36I feel like Alyssa is taking this a little bit too far.
01:11:40Come on, Alyssa.
01:11:41You're really going to throw everything away?
01:11:43Over one little hiccup?
01:11:45It's not the end of the world.
01:11:47He's never been there with me.
01:11:49He's never been there with me.
01:11:52Feels like Alyssa's making a mountain out of a molehill.
01:11:56Holy shit!
01:11:59He's a good man, David.
01:12:00He's had it back through the experiment.
01:12:02He's made a couple of little minor mistakes,
01:12:04but all of a sudden they're the biggest mistakes in the world.
01:12:07It's ridiculous.
01:12:08Think about it, babe.
01:12:09I know that you're very hurt, but open your heart because...
01:12:13How?
01:12:14Tell me how I can press the button to make my feelings change.
01:12:16I think when you answer the marriage, you have to accept sometimes
01:12:18the fact that you will get hurt and your partner will get hurt,
01:12:23but you have to find the ways to connect.
01:12:27Alyssa needs to understand David is not doing this
01:12:31to hurt her in any way, shape, or form.
01:12:33He's actually fighting for the feelings.
01:12:35But can I say to you, Alyssa, that...
01:12:38You blindsided me.
01:12:39I didn't mean to blindside you, but before the commitment, Sarah...
01:12:41We're not actually getting anywhere in this conversation.
01:12:43No, no, no. We need to still talk.
01:12:45We are getting somewhere.
01:12:46I actually can't be bothered.
01:12:47Shut me down. This is what I'm saying.
01:12:48I'm not shutting you down, babe.
01:12:50I'm not. I'm not.
01:12:51I'm not.
01:12:56This is hard to watch, isn't it?
01:12:58He's giving it everything, though, isn't he?
01:13:00He's just laying his heart out.
01:13:02He's giving everything.
01:13:03He knows this is his last chance.
01:13:05Yeah.
01:13:05This is it.
01:13:06But she's just ice cold.
01:13:08She's shut down.
01:13:09Yes.
01:13:10We've actually not seen Alyssa respond like this before.
01:13:12No.
01:13:13It seems like an entirely different person.
01:13:14No.
01:13:16I want her to know that I want this.
01:13:19Let's work on it.
01:13:19That's why I'm here.
01:13:21I'm literally here because I love this woman.
01:13:23Too late, doll.
01:13:25Too late.
01:13:30But it's not too late.
01:13:31It's only too late if you want to throw three months down the drain.
01:13:36Do you know what?
01:13:39I'm willing to throw three months down the drain rather than waste any more time.
01:13:50I'm done.
01:13:55I feel like this dinner party's done.
01:13:58Babe, no.
01:13:58Honestly, it's done.
01:14:08No, babe, I actually don't really need this right now.
01:14:12I know, I know.
01:14:12I just want space.
01:14:12I'm just saying it's okay.
01:14:14I actually just want space.
01:14:14I understand.
01:14:15Can you just go back to the dinner party?
01:14:16There's no point for me being here.
01:14:18Babe, I actually don't.
01:14:18I really just need a minute.
01:14:20I really just want a minute.
01:14:22Please.
01:14:22I know you need a minute.
01:14:23It's okay.
01:14:25All right.
01:14:28Holy shit.
01:14:31God.
01:14:40All right, Australia.
01:14:42This is it.
01:14:43The moment you've all been waiting for.
01:14:45Gia is finally here and she's about to unload and spill the tea on everything.
01:14:49We've also got some shocking new unseen footage.
01:14:52And John is here with a heartfelt tribute for Mel.
01:14:55Masks after the dinner party.
01:14:57See you soon.
01:14:58Only on Stan.
01:15:03Babe, just don't do this.
01:15:05No, babe.
01:15:05I actually don't really need this right now.
01:15:08I know, I know.
01:15:08I just want space.
01:15:09I'm just saying it's okay.
01:15:10I actually just want space.
01:15:11I understand.
01:15:11Can you just go back to the dinner party?
01:15:12There's no point for me being here.
01:15:14Babe, I actually don't.
01:15:15I really just need a minute.
01:15:17I really just need a minute.
01:15:18Please.
01:15:19I really just need space.
01:15:24Holy shit.
01:15:27God.
01:15:28It's so disappointing.
01:15:30I don't think we've ever seen a final dinner party end in such disarray.
01:15:34Mm-hmm.
01:15:35We've had two couples walk out.
01:15:37And there's such jeopardy now in terms of where these couples are at
01:15:42and whether or not they can actually get to final vows.
01:15:45Mm.
01:15:55You know, I held it together as much as I could tonight.
01:15:58But I am devastated at where my relationship with Alyssa is at.
01:16:03I've given everything.
01:16:04Put it all on the line.
01:16:05I apologize.
01:16:07I told Alyssa I loved her tonight.
01:16:09I made it so clear in front of everyone how I felt about her.
01:16:13Right then, boys.
01:16:14Can I just say what I see from an outsider's point of view?
01:16:17I hate to say it, Dave, that I feel like that.
01:16:20You're trying to get forgiveness.
01:16:21You're trying to fix it up.
01:16:23Looks like to me she's checked out.
01:16:24She doesn't want to try.
01:16:26You can only do so much, Dave.
01:16:28Yeah.
01:16:28Right?
01:16:29You've got your hand out like this.
01:16:31Yeah.
01:16:31And you keep putting your hand out.
01:16:34Eventually, there's got to be a point where Alyssa's got to go,
01:16:36all right, I'm willing to give this another go.
01:16:38I've given my 100% and I'm not going to be embarrassed, bro.
01:16:41Like, I've poured my heart out before everyone.
01:16:43My love is very pure.
01:16:46It's pure.
01:16:46And I mean it.
01:16:48I came here because I loved her.
01:16:52My opinion is you're a good guy.
01:16:55For Alyssa to throw it all away like it meant nothing.
01:17:00And me and her husband sitting there just barely acknowledged
01:17:04just because, you know, of a simple disagreement
01:17:07where I took my ring off, I can't describe the hurt.
01:17:11The reason I took my ring off, guys,
01:17:13is not because I wanted to take that ring off.
01:17:15It's because of three months of me begging to let my voice be heard
01:17:19and it getting shut down, right?
01:17:22I was just looking for Alyssa to recognize that even though she thought it was fine,
01:17:27for me it was, it wasn't fine.
01:17:32I can't win.
01:17:33Every single time I challenged and pushed, I challenged and pushed in an argument.
01:17:39It just blew up.
01:17:40I hate to say this, but you're begging like a dog who hasn't been fed for a week.
01:17:46Yeah.
01:17:47And I think she's overrated.
01:17:49Tonight, I felt like I was fighting for this relationship by myself.
01:17:53Like, I really feel alone in this.
01:17:57You know, I care about Alyssa and she cares about me,
01:18:00but right now I'm just, I'm a bit confused.
01:18:06I'm going to take my time before final vows to process my decision
01:18:10because I want to fight for love, but at the same time,
01:18:14there has to be something to fight for.
01:18:22I came into this experiment looking for love.
01:18:25I definitely found what I've come here for.
01:18:29After three intense months,
01:18:33it all comes down to the final vows.
01:18:38The four remaining couples must make the life-changing decision.
01:18:46Here we go.
01:18:48Will they take their relationship into the outside world?
01:18:53Or will they say goodbye forever?
01:18:58I know this might be hard to hear.
01:19:03Before...
01:19:03Hi.
01:19:05One of the most magical moments the experiment's ever seen.
01:19:12Stella, I love you more than I ever thought possible.
01:19:23And now, the fallout.
01:19:26After the dinner party, only on Stan.
01:19:30And now, the fallout after the dinner party, only on Stan.
01:19:34Look, I love you.
01:19:34So let's go back over the dinner party, close to the dinner party.
01:19:34You probably want to be after the dinner party.
01:19:34Don't wait back, don't wait to see you.
01:19:35After you, I don't know.
