00:00:01You're special and I am in love with you.
00:00:05Philip finally confessed those magic words.
00:00:09Oh God, I feel like I'm going to cry.
00:00:12But Stella was left feeling triggered.
00:00:15Fear of rejection, not rejection, abandonment.
00:00:17So I'm dealing with that right now.
00:00:21Despite Rachel and Steven's romantic progression.
00:00:25Made second base.
00:00:27And we've had...
00:00:30They became the butt of the joke at the couple's retreat.
00:00:34Don't even want to be around here anymore.
00:00:37When the group turned on Beck and Danny.
00:00:39Every night you've been the dumbest.
00:00:42The pair made an abrupt exit.
00:00:46And at the dinner party...
00:00:47I've got all this in the screenshots.
00:00:49I've got it in text messages.
00:00:50Gia declared she was sitting on explosive evidence against Beck.
00:00:54I could ruin everything for her right now.
00:00:57She said...
00:00:58Oh!
00:00:59Are you kidding?
00:01:02Tonight.
00:01:04Beck has gotten away with a lot in this experiment.
00:01:07She's done a lot of things wrong by a lot of people.
00:01:10So I think the screenshots, if they are aired out, they help me because what I've been saying this whole
00:01:16time is she is a calculated evil person.
00:01:18And those screenshots show that.
00:01:21With only three commitment ceremonies remaining, the stakes have never been so high.
00:01:28I'm just excited for the next four weeks and see where we end up.
00:01:31I do see a future with her, unfortunately.
00:01:35I love you.
00:01:36Yeah, put me on the spot a little bit.
00:01:38But are all of our couples on the same page?
00:01:44Um...
00:01:46If you're so terrified of making someone pregnant, maybe just do a snip.
00:01:50It's the sensitive topic...
00:01:52Has anyone heard of condoms?
00:01:54...that will leave some divided.
00:01:56It's reversible.
00:01:58But it's a procedure.
00:02:00...before Stella's blindside...
00:02:03...threatens to tear apart the experiment's strongest couple.
00:02:07If I'm being honest with myself and with Philip...
00:02:12...this is a breakup.
00:02:14No.
00:02:17Will Gia reveal her evidence against Beck?
00:02:20We do not like you.
00:02:21Don't lie about me then.
00:02:22You're trying to make me look bad.
00:02:23You're interrupting our couch session. Shut up.
00:02:26And...
00:02:26I don't think this experiment is for me.
00:02:30What causes not one...
00:02:32Jules.
00:02:33No.
00:02:33Did you just hear that?
00:02:34But two participants to storm out.
00:02:37She's gone.
00:02:53It's the morning of the fifth commitment ceremony of the experiment.
00:02:57And despite the intensity of the week...
00:03:00...our couple's connections have become even stronger.
00:03:04Gosh, you're torn.
00:03:07I'm really grateful for you.
00:03:13After reluctantly finding themselves in the spotlight at the retreat...
00:03:18...last night's dinner party helped Rachel and Stephen regain their strength as a couple.
00:03:24Yeah, I'm feeling good about us and...
00:03:27Yeah.
00:03:27You know, the dinner party wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
00:03:31I feel like we came out really, really good.
00:03:32And also a bit of PDA in front of the group, babe.
00:03:35Happy New Year.
00:03:37Happy New Year.
00:03:38Happy New Year.
00:03:39Yay!
00:03:43I was a happy girl.
00:03:46Like...
00:03:46Yeah.
00:03:47Very, very happy.
00:03:48Last week at retreat, like...
00:03:50It wasn't just one of us coming under, like, that humiliation.
00:03:54It was our relationship and we had to work through that as a couple.
00:03:58And what that really showed me is when there are trying times, we can work through that.
00:04:05And that's really, really reassuring.
00:04:07Yeah, I'm feeling good about us and, uh...
00:04:09Hopefully we can move forward and no more hiccups.
00:04:12But at the same time...
00:04:13It feels like there's still, like, you know, some awkward tension simmering at the top.
00:04:19I don't know if Juliet maybe wanted to say more to Beck or...
00:04:22I hope not.
00:04:24Can I just say, my husband and I are done.
00:04:28We're done talking about retreat.
00:04:30On that note, I think we should make some coffee.
00:04:32Thanks for that.
00:04:34You want a coffee?
00:04:35Yes, please.
00:04:36No worries.
00:04:37Oh, my gosh.
00:04:38He's never done this before.
00:04:46The pressure of the retreat also took a toll on Beck and Danny.
00:04:52Who came close to leaving the experiment for good.
00:04:56But through it all, they found resilience in their relationship.
00:05:00And to lift spirits, today, Danny has a small surprise for Beck.
00:05:05So I've got you a card and your favourite chocolate bar.
00:05:10You're so cute.
00:05:13And it's got a gift in the card.
00:05:18There's two date cards which can be cashed in any time.
00:05:21You're so cute.
00:05:25You're so cute.
00:05:29Me and Beck, we've never been in a better place than at the minute, you know, we're in a really
00:05:33good place.
00:05:34We're really united, really strong.
00:05:37And yeah, things are really progressing well for me and Beck, so it's nice.
00:05:41I am so happy that we didn't leave.
00:05:44I left the retreat thinking there was more hate than there was love, so I'm really glad that we chose
00:05:50to stay.
00:05:50Yeah.
00:05:51Last night, I was really, really anxious before going into the dinner party.
00:05:55I was obviously apprehensive going in, not knowing what I was going to, not knowing what I was getting into.
00:06:01Didn't know if Juliet was going to attack again.
00:06:04And even though Jira and Juliet sat on the couch and didn't come up to us, there was more love
00:06:10in that room for us than there was hate.
00:06:12I think it went well. I was a bit disappointed with the apology. She tried to fluff around it.
00:06:18For me, when it comes to Juliet, I do not want anything to do with her.
00:06:25I accept her apology on the surface, but we will never, ever, ever, ever be friends.
00:06:32I think Juliet apologised because the experts were watching.
00:06:36My delivery and me calling you names was disgusting and vile, and I definitely should have not done that.
00:06:43But in the heat of the moment, I felt angry.
00:06:47Just kind of felt like, you know, you were speaking for Rachel's relationship and saying that they were in a
00:06:53massive fight.
00:06:55The argument at retreat was between Rachel and I, and Juliet's excuse was, I was standing up for Rachel.
00:07:02No, honey. You weren't standing up for Rachel. This is just the crux of who you are.
00:07:08Beck and Danny aren't the only couple reflecting on Juliet's behaviour last night.
00:07:13I'm so stoked and I'm so relieved that Juliet didn't pop off at Beck, otherwise I was going to step
00:07:21in because it was getting a bit too much.
00:07:22So, I'm really thankful that we didn't have to get to that point, and Juliet actually articulated herself well.
00:07:28She apologised, she seemed genuine, and yeah, I'm glad it didn't escalate.
00:07:33Yeah, I thought it went well.
00:07:35I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm proud of Juliet.
00:07:37I feel like she fucked up the exact same way two times back to back, and kind of still had
00:07:42a lot of buts and rebuttals to everything last night.
00:07:45Well, for me, I'm proud of her. She's my friend, so I'm proud of her.
00:07:49You're allowed to be proud of her.
00:07:50Yeah.
00:07:51I'm just saying that, like, I just feel like I'm going to keep her at arm's length because I still
00:07:55just don't trust her much at the moment.
00:07:57I see it as a small step that she apologised, and she didn't go back to the old Juliet, and
00:08:02for that reason I'm proud of her.
00:08:03So, I'll stick with that.
00:08:05Yeah.
00:08:05Yeah.
00:08:06You don't have to have the same opinion as me.
00:08:07No, no, I didn't say I had to. I'm just telling you I'm proud of her.
00:08:10Yeah, yeah.
00:08:10Yeah, cool.
00:08:19I'm just feeling defeated, I guess.
00:08:23Juliet has woken this morning, still upset about last night's intense dinner party.
00:08:31It was just me being empathetic for Rach's situation and feeling it, like, in full force.
00:08:38Like, that's what I do as an empath. I feel people's pain in full force, and I take it on.
00:08:45Which, like, I probably should have not done for someone who was just going to help kick me down a
00:08:51bit further.
00:08:51And that's what I felt like Rach did.
00:08:54Like, I feel like I would never, ever, ever help to, like, humiliate and shame someone who stood up for
00:09:02me in any degree, really.
00:09:04I just feel like I've been, like, a rock for so many people this week.
00:09:10And when time came to it, I didn't see those people around me.
00:09:17The only reason I have this situation with Bec right now is because I've been defending others all week over
00:09:24it, feeling their hurt and joining in on it.
00:09:26Like, I'm here to be a rock and an empath to people.
00:09:31I just hope to get the same back sometimes.
00:09:35Have you spoken to Gia since last night?
00:09:38Um, she's checked in on me this morning.
00:09:40Do you think you guys will be okay going in?
00:09:43Yeah, I definitely love her.
00:09:45I'm right or die for Gia.
00:09:47Do you think Gia's still right or die for you?
00:09:50Yeah, I mean, her texting me this morning to check in.
00:09:53And I've also got a missed call from her.
00:09:57Like, that's really nice.
00:09:59And I love her and I miss her.
00:10:00And I think when I saw that, like, tea stream down my face, because I really, really, really, really love
00:10:05her.
00:10:08If someone has bitched about Gia, yeah, like, I'm done with them.
00:10:11And, obviously, that gets me caught in other situations.
00:10:17It's my character, though.
00:10:18I'm a right or die for my friends.
00:10:29As the commitment ceremony draws closer, our couples are all getting set to face the experts.
00:10:43But for one participant, tonight's focus has been shifted to exposing another bride in the experiment.
00:11:00Gia has been sitting on some damning text messages written by Beck.
00:11:07But instead of planning to reveal the messages herself, Gia has chosen to share the text messages with another participant.
00:11:41The End
00:11:45you look stunning as always thanks so to you for the ceremony I know a bit
00:11:51interesting at the moment though I gotta say why what's wrong last night I was
00:11:56talking to Juliet I showed her some screenshot of some things that Bec's
00:12:01been saying using disgusting language so then I actually was getting my nails
00:12:07done and when I walked into the nail salon Bec was leaving the nail salon and
00:12:12started talking shit about Juliet so I called Juliet and I said hey just
00:12:17letting you know I ran into Bec she said this and she's like cool well I'm sick of
00:12:20this bitch talking about me so she's gone and printed out some screenshots so
00:12:25that if the experts come at her for using that language I'm sure Bec will deny
00:12:29using that language and go oh I don't talk like that Juliet will probably just
00:12:32drop a screenshot of Bec saying language like that I don't agree with the
00:12:38language Juliet used I think it was a bit inappropriate and too far but the
00:12:43screenshots show that Bec is very comfortable using that kind of language
00:12:48so I don't know like I don't know what way it's gonna go tonight some things in
00:12:53the message that were really disgusting Bec has gotten away with a lot of shit in
00:12:56this experiment she's done a lot of things wrong by a lot of people some of
00:13:00them are still unaware that she's done this behind closed doors so I think the
00:13:04screenshots if they are aired out they helped me because what I've been saying
00:13:09this whole time is she is a calculated evil person and those screenshots show
00:13:13that I don't blame Juliet she's she's now got them in her hands and she's
00:13:19gonna do what she's gonna do with them so if Juliet feels that she needs to do
00:13:22this tonight then Juliet should do this shit yeah well no I don't know what to
00:13:30expect could blow out a proportion that's for sure
00:13:34whatever happens happens yeah nothing's gonna affect us so
00:14:03good evening good evening gentlemen hello welcome gents hello what evening
00:14:12welcome
00:14:24hello ladies and gents
00:14:26hello hello
00:14:32hey Bob darling we go
00:14:43welcome everybody to the fifth commitment ceremony now it has been a
00:14:48very eventful week for all of you coming off the back of a couples retreat now
00:14:55we do this task and it is a pivotal one every single time during the experiment so
00:15:01that we can see how you operate as couples outside of your normal environment and how your
00:15:09relationship sustains a different type of pressure certainly from the dinner party that occurred
00:15:17last night the group has experienced some division we will look at this as well as the
00:15:28individual couples that sit here tonight to find out exactly how you're traveling along but also
00:15:35particularly to get you to think about the very important question of whether or not you can take
00:15:42this relationship from the experiment into the real world and on that note let's get our first couple up
00:15:51here
00:15:56jerry and scott
00:15:58great
00:15:59how are you going
00:16:02hello you two
00:16:03hello
00:16:04welcome
00:16:08all right you two well why don't we kick off with the couples retreat how was it
00:16:13okay
00:16:14do you want to talk do you want to talk
00:16:14yeah go
00:16:14oh
00:16:18um
00:16:19i don't know it was quite chill for us well throughout the days obviously
00:16:22it wasn't chill
00:16:22no throughout throughout the days i look at the good stuff
00:16:27chill
00:16:27like it was just a lot the retreat to be honest it was just really emotional
00:16:30i think a lot of us are drained from it to be honest
00:16:33can you tell us a little bit about what you experienced and how it's affected your relationship
00:16:39uh
00:16:40to be honest it hasn't affected our relationship any of the drama i it hasn't at all we've been
00:16:44like he even said the last two days like we're the closest we've ever been i think like
00:16:50you know he's called me his soul mate at the dinner party like i just want to focus on like
00:16:54the
00:16:54positives because i've been involved in drama too much and it's taken a toll on me to be honest
00:17:00i just don't want to focus on it anymore to be honest i think we're near the end
00:17:04and everyone's focusing and should be focusing on our relationships and that's what we're doing
00:17:08and i think when we shut out all that drama like
00:17:11we're even better
00:17:12we're great
00:17:14that's just other shit it's got nothing to do with us
00:17:17it doesn't affect our actual relationship
00:17:20because what we have together is real and that's all that matters so
00:17:23respectfully for them too i won't talk to them anymore that's because i want to carry on my
00:17:26relationship and i think it's not good we interact because all it does is bring drama to us
00:17:30were you and danny friends
00:17:32we were
00:17:34like it does suck because we had a good friendship but
00:17:36well that's that's one of the things that you know we need to bring up
00:17:40what we saw at the dinner party was that you've actually had to
00:17:44lose a friendship as a as a result of some of the drama
00:17:47exactly
00:17:49when i walked in the dinner party with beg
00:17:51scott didn't get up to even acknowledge we were in the room
00:17:55i was just a bit disappointed that as a man and as a gentleman you didn't get up to say
00:18:00hello to me and my wife
00:18:02we're doing that so we aren't involved in drama anymore
00:18:05it's difficult you know at the retreat you yelled out at me that i'm a liar in front of people
00:18:09so like how do you expect my husband's going to react to that
00:18:11you lied about me as well jia
00:18:13yeah but we're trying to move forward and you're interrupting our card session
00:18:16shut up
00:18:39we don't care anymore okay
00:18:43we didn't say hello to both of you because we do not like you either
00:18:47that's fine
00:18:47don't lie about me then
00:18:48so we're not going to go say hi
00:18:49fake how are you
00:18:50enough
00:18:51not doing it
00:18:52we're done
00:18:53all right let's go back to scott and jia
00:18:56yes please thanks
00:18:57i just want to move on my relationship because that's all that matters
00:19:00that's all we care about that's what i came here for i didn't come here for high school shit
00:19:04i came here to find the love of my life and that's it
00:19:09but to be fair your involvement in the drama has been there right throughout the experiment
00:19:17so we've got to hold you to account and say there is a reason why there's drama swirling around the
00:19:24two of you
00:19:25what you're saying now is that you're making a concerted decision to move away from it
00:19:30right
00:19:33do you think you can do that
00:19:36last dinner party i didn't say anything and i should have and i didn't
00:19:39so i i wanted to back juliet and i i i just i said to myself i can't get involved
00:19:44anymore
00:19:45i can't get involved
00:19:47so jia how's your relationship been able to move forward through this conflict
00:19:55and not collapse under that pressure
00:19:57i'll just ignore the shit
00:20:00also our i feel like our connection is too strong like there's no way
00:20:05and this just proves it to me all the shit can get thrown at us and and it our relationship
00:20:10doesn't change
00:20:11what i do like and i i told you john when i met you what i was after and i
00:20:16said my number one thing is i've never had a man back me in my life
00:20:19so when he does this like yeah like this is all i asked for
00:20:27i've just never had like a soul connection like this in my life like i don't think much could waver
00:20:32it to be honest
00:20:33so have you fallen in love with him
00:20:36i'm not saying that john
00:20:39what are you waiting for him yeah because i feel like he knows where i'm at and i need him
00:20:46to say it first to be honest
00:20:50for me like i don't know what it is like i don't know whether i'm scared or it's fear i
00:20:54don't know what it is
00:20:56maybe i'm just pressured to force that love quicker than what it should be
00:21:00for me i just there's something in my mind like i just i need more of this outside world in
00:21:05before i can really give that true love
00:21:07but i know i'm getting there and i know it'll probably happen
00:21:10so have you two talked about the future and specifically what your relationship would look like
00:21:15we've spoken a lot about we've been looking at real estate
00:21:17we've been looking at houses and like i got a quote from a mover already like i'm like we're doing
00:21:21it
00:21:23yeah we have like we've already looked at areas and places to get a house and stuff because i need
00:21:28to get a bigger place but
00:21:30i have to say that i really have enjoyed how raw and honest you've been tonight with us
00:21:37and uh had each other's back and you're very invested in one another
00:21:42and uh that's what we love to see
00:21:45so on that note we're going to go to the decision
00:21:48i think we're pretty unshakable and i'm really excited to move forward and see what the future holds for us
00:21:53so i've got the stay and i've got the gold coast
00:21:58look at that manifesting aren't you

00:23:15and then just move forward from there beck
00:23:18sure
00:23:19uh what's your take on what happened at the couples retreat and how it landed for you
00:23:27um i made a poor choice in words in a speech on the first night
00:23:32and it was a distasteful joke that was not meant maliciously and i've apologized to rachel and steven a number
00:23:39of times um
00:23:43i didn't say it expecting to upset rachel and i understand why it did
00:23:50and um i'm sorry to you both again from that came a really bad few days for me personally
00:24:02um
00:24:04it just turned into sort of a pile on a little bit i was isolated and
00:24:11you know one day i was just in bed crying for hours
00:24:16so yeah it was hard for me
00:24:18it opened my eyes
00:24:20to maybe you know when i have
00:24:21been
00:24:23curt and unkind to people in the past
00:24:25at the beginning of this how that may have felt
00:24:27for elissa for example
00:24:29and that's just awful
00:24:32but through that
00:24:33hardship came
00:24:35something so beautiful and i could actually say thank you
00:24:37to those girls
00:24:39because what they did was made my relationship
00:24:42tenfold stronger
00:24:43and us so much closer
00:24:45because he didn't leave my side
00:24:48and i could depend on him
00:24:52so as a couple
00:24:54this really pressured
00:24:56situation that you're under
00:24:58has actually taken you to another level

00:31:01um yeah it put me on the spot a little bit but i think i dealt with it well
00:31:08i don't feel that you should tell someone you love them unless you truly mean it
00:31:12um love's a massive thing and it's a word that shouldn't be chucked around loosely

00:32:19well yes
00:32:20okay
00:32:22um we'll start before the retreat
00:32:24um
00:32:27you know me and rachel were uh
00:32:30you know i'm doing well
00:32:35it was a passionate moment
00:32:37i felt connected with rachel
00:32:39how passionate
00:32:40it was really nice
00:32:42i got that part
00:32:46it was like
00:32:49i've known
00:32:50like steven has expressed
00:32:52from many weeks ago
00:32:54that to increase intimacy
00:32:56would mean that he would need to feel
00:32:58more of an emotional connection
00:33:00yes to me
00:33:01so it was
00:33:03really special
00:33:05because
00:33:05he obviously felt that with me
00:33:08so yeah
00:33:09it was
00:33:10it was a nice connecting moment
00:33:13and i just really felt i could just feel
00:33:16our relationships start
00:33:18like take this trajectory
00:33:19it was
00:33:20yeah
00:33:21it was really nice
00:33:23really connecting
00:33:24but
00:33:26we've only
00:33:28increased intimacy that one time
00:33:32why
00:33:33why has there been
00:33:34no follow-up on that
00:33:37um
00:33:40okay so
00:33:42um
00:33:43obviously the next day was
00:33:44sort of the retreat
00:33:48and
00:33:48this is where it all
00:33:51unfolds a little bit so
00:33:52um
00:33:55rachel expressed our good news
00:33:57to the group
00:33:58and
00:33:59there was a
00:34:00comment that was made
00:34:01um
00:34:02sort of in bad taste
00:34:04and
00:34:04uh
00:34:06rachel
00:34:06um
00:34:07was really upset by the comment
00:34:09and it was just
00:34:11three days of
00:34:12carnage really
00:34:14um
00:34:15the retreat for me and rachel
00:34:16was meant to be a
00:34:18sort of a getaway
00:34:19and a redemption from our honeymoon
00:34:21and it pretty much deteriorated from
00:34:24day one
00:34:25and
00:34:27you know night after night
00:34:28um
00:34:29you know rachel was
00:34:30you know sort of really upset
00:34:32and
00:34:32i guess to answer the question
00:34:34um
00:34:35yeah the last thing i found
00:34:37you know i was going to do is
00:34:38pull moves when rachel was really
00:34:40sort of hurt and i just
00:34:42yeah we just didn't
00:34:43weren't in that mood
00:34:50so
00:34:50so obviously we did hear from the cocktail and dinner party what the comments made were
00:34:55and i guess my question to you rachel is why did it have such a big impact that it lasted
00:35:01three days
00:35:02three days
00:35:03so
00:35:04we are talking about the comment that beck made
00:35:07correct yes yes yes yes yes
00:35:09um
00:35:11in the moment that the comment was made now i understand it wasn't made with malice it
00:35:15wasn't made to make me feel any type of way however because i had shared
00:35:21i chose my language very carefully when i shared with the entire group that wording right at the end it
00:35:28just felt like it cheapened it i felt humiliated so it just became this really big thing and it just
00:35:36didn't mean to be
00:35:38looking back and how i feel on that i definitely was influenced by the information that was given to me
00:35:45100 percent um by juliet and gia
00:35:52after reflection i feel like i've been used as a pawn in something that is there's still a rift between
00:36:02juliet beck and gia and i feel like
00:36:06this situation kind of allowed them to like have something else to fuel up about that's how i feel now
00:36:16yeah
00:36:19so you feel like juliet and gia used you as a pawn as a way to generate more drama with
00:36:26beck because there's been clearly um a rift there in their relationship
00:36:33to be fair
00:36:37when beck did make these comments with me i said i didn't want any part of it beck was coming
00:36:42to me with this stuff
00:36:43i said i didn't want the drama and she would cover her mic and say even more stuff about it
00:36:47while i had her crying to me i cannot i did not want any of this i was trying to
00:36:54not engage in it
00:36:55she was coming to me with it
00:37:01and so this is i guess where i don't know
00:37:05that that's honestly just how i was feeling i just didn't know
00:37:09what was real and what like what was real being told to me what wasn't and yeah
00:37:18with it it's just been a really emotional time i call it the retreat hangover
00:37:24um and it's just a pretty good description
00:37:26and it did interfere a little bit with our relationship
00:37:32it called things off intimacy wise but in terms of our relationship
00:37:39i felt like we got stronger as a couple
00:37:43because it was like
00:37:45yes there was a lot happening with our relationship
00:37:47i like you know it felt like there was a lot outside doors about talking about our relationship
00:37:51but when i was really upset like i just wanted my husband and he was there
00:37:56and we were really connected that way it just wasn't like
00:38:02intimacy
00:38:03was it like that for you stephen
00:38:06at the moment yeah the intimacy thing is just
00:38:08not there but i'm still close and connected with rachel i'm still comfortable i mean
00:38:13we're still having you know good dates together and we're having fun together we're laughing so
00:38:18you know it's still good i'm confident we're yeah we're we haven't gone backwards
00:38:24i love the giggles oh it's gorgeous love it
00:38:28yeah
00:38:32with that let's go to the decision
00:38:36um rachel
00:38:37yeah yeah yeah
00:38:39stay or leave
00:38:40um look this week was just so easy for me and there's no way a man can call me a
00:38:45wonderful woman at a dinner party
00:38:47and not have me stick around
00:38:49simple as that
00:38:54and steven
00:38:55uh well um
00:38:57you know we've come a long way in this experiment i'm very happy with uh the direction it's uh going
00:39:02and
00:39:03um i was gonna draw a nice little picture for you to show how much i liked you but i
00:39:08realized i can't draw
00:39:10so
00:39:10i wrote
00:39:11stay
00:39:12oh the little fish
00:39:15come fishing with me
00:39:16she's a good catch
00:39:19i will say this
00:39:21big steps in the right direction
00:39:23on many fronts for the two of you this week
00:39:26that step that you've already taken to getting more physically close and more physically comfortable
00:39:33you're gonna want to repeat and i and i really hope that that is a bit of a goal in
00:39:38terms of just really focusing on the things that bind you together and things that will help nourish that bond
00:39:44that you're constructing
00:39:44so focus on that in the next week
00:39:47you can go back to the group
00:39:50well done you guys
00:39:51good stuff
00:40:00oh
00:40:03coming up
00:40:04and then i just said oh god i love you
00:40:09philip's love
00:40:11this can't be true
00:40:13stella's blind side
00:40:15at the moment he doesn't see sydney as a possibility to move and in my head
00:40:19this is a breakup
00:40:22and then
00:40:24express to me what your point is
00:40:27you should be careful
00:40:29when i have screenshots of what you've said about alissa and david
00:40:34vile
00:40:35it was vile
00:40:48our next couple tonight
00:40:55sam and chris
00:40:56let's go

00:41:02hi
00:41:03how we doing
00:41:05well how was retreat for you guys
00:41:08it was good
00:41:09i was always going into the retreat with the intention that i would make the next move
00:41:15but there was a lot going on so when we got back from the retreat as he was unpacking i
00:41:20just went into the bedroom and said hey chris come in here for a second and um
00:41:24wait no i was actually doing my laundry in my underwear
00:41:27i had all my clothes and he's like chris come here and i was like yeah what
00:41:31and i was like oh right okay
00:41:33just a bit short with me
00:41:34um
00:41:36and he made business
00:41:37he made business yeah
00:41:39yeah we broke the friend zone
00:41:41so we're out of the friend zone
00:41:42excellent
00:41:44proud mama
00:41:45always always
00:41:47yeah
00:41:48so let me ask you this sam
00:41:49mr. slow burn
00:41:52that's not what we call me is it
00:41:53no no no
00:41:54not anymore
00:41:55not anymore
00:41:57do you feel um you're still burning slow
00:42:01um right now there's feelings i won't deny that because i wasn't going to act on any intimacy until there
00:42:06was so that's a clear sign that there was
00:42:08you know i turned to you in the retreat and i said like i think of you as my boyfriend
00:42:12and like
00:42:13like that has is what's changed i guess or has developed is probably a better word
00:42:18and what about your feelings chris
00:42:20um yeah so my feelings uh for sam have been pretty strong since i met him like that's who i
00:42:26am i'm like
00:42:26yep cute you know tick six foot like tick blah blah blah
00:42:30um so i've yeah
00:42:31six foot three
00:42:33six foot three
00:42:34um
00:42:37and are you starting to think about life outside the experiment
00:42:41i think what it would probably look like is it just like say we go well everything ticks the boxes
00:42:46we'd have a place in sydney
00:42:47so he'd go to sydney i would stay primarily at the farm and then maybe we can float back and
00:42:52forth for a bit from sydney to the farm
00:42:54oh someone's been thinking about this quite a bit of detail
00:42:57i think i think that's what it would look like if if we are successful and i want us to
00:43:01be successful but he has a lot of stuff to do in the city
00:43:03whereas i'm like cool to be at the farm full time um and i'm just excited for the next four
00:43:08weeks on this experiment and see where we end up
00:43:12well we're going to go to a decision
00:43:13cool today i wrote stay
00:43:18yes you did i'm not yelling it's just i'm very excited to be here
00:43:21it's very loud

00:44:01hello
00:44:01hey how's it going
00:44:04we're going well but we're more interested in how you guys are going
00:44:07oh
00:44:08okay
00:44:09i can't shake him off
00:44:10she can't she can't kick me off her leg
00:44:12are you trying
00:44:13i can't
00:44:14well do you know what i have tested
00:44:17i'm just being honest i've tested i've tried to shake him off and he won't leave
00:44:20so you know he likes it he obviously likes the challenge
00:44:24i know this is very cute and playful
00:44:28but do you like it
00:44:29i'm not gonna lie
00:44:31it's not like i won't say i won't say i like it but i can handle it
00:44:36she is obviously more of the storm and i'm the calm
00:44:41and for some reason like you know i'm just so pulled towards that storm
00:44:46but i find like i'm able to harbour that storm and it doesn't get to me
00:44:50i even get happy talking about it so
00:44:53yeah i can't explain it
00:44:55so alissa
00:44:57you know when you initially talked about
00:45:00some of the questions you've got around david
00:45:04uh and whether he challenges you
00:45:06is it fair to say now that you're seeing his character his calmness as being something that
00:45:13it's challenging me
00:45:14it's challenging you but also that you're actually responding really well to
00:45:18it actually is like it's because it's a new thing for me to overcome
00:45:24and it's a good thing
00:45:26um i know that i you know i'm a bit of a menace sometimes i'm a bit loud and i
00:45:31can be challenging but
00:45:33he's he is a pillar he's a strong safe place
00:45:38it's another reason why i i'm still drawn to alissa it's because i know i'm good for her
00:45:44i think we balance each other out really well
00:45:47david how do you feel about alissa
00:45:50feel like i'm still falling for alissa i don't think anything's changed like i do see a future with her

00:47:15hello
00:47:17hey
00:47:18oh
00:47:20wow
00:47:20pre-emptive tissue grab
00:47:22i'm coming prepared
00:47:23yeah
00:47:23coming prepared
00:47:25noted
00:47:26i am curious why the tissue grab
00:47:30um i'm in a very sensitive um mood
00:47:34yeah
00:47:35yeah
00:47:37i've sensed that
00:47:37so what's going on for you
00:47:40um
00:47:41um
00:47:42it's okay
00:47:44i think it all kind of unravelled um when philip confessed his feelings
00:47:53um
00:47:58conversations got really heavy really really quick
00:48:03uh so the last commitment ceremony
00:48:06alessandra she was saying look i don't understand the confusion here you're dancing around
00:48:10talk about how you feel
00:48:13why don't you just tell her so uh that night i told her you know come over here come sit
00:48:18down she thought she was in trouble
00:48:21and then i just said
00:48:22and then i just said
00:48:23look i i love you
00:48:27i'm feeling it you know
00:48:30and it felt good saying that
00:48:32and you're right you were right just express it just say it if you're feeling it
00:48:37i would want to hear it
00:48:57and that's true
00:49:03thank you
00:49:03stanley
00:49:05Did you tell Philip that you loved him back?
00:49:07I did in my own long-winded way.
00:49:13What does that mean?
00:49:17Um...
00:49:22Philip, did you receive an I love you?
00:49:25She's just, like, sent a long-winded way of saying it.
00:49:30So, Philip has shared to you that he has deep feelings for you.
00:49:36He's falling in love with you.
00:49:37He sees a future with you.
00:49:41What specifically did that feel like for you, hearing that?
00:49:52It felt...
00:49:56This can't be true.
00:50:04What's it going to take for you to believe Philip?
00:50:08I don't know.
00:50:09I...
00:50:11I think...
00:50:13I do have an amazing human as my partner who understands me.
00:50:18But the fact that he lives in Melbourne, I live in Sydney,
00:50:23this is going to be an issue for me.
00:50:28At the moment, he doesn't see Sydney as a possibility to move.
00:50:33Then in my head, this is a breakup.
00:50:41So, from your perspective,
00:50:43Philip needs to move to Sydney or it's off.
00:50:49If I'm being honest with myself and with Philip...
00:51:00It seems like that.
00:51:03Yeah.
00:51:23Philip needs to move to Sydney or it's off.
00:51:31If I'm being honest with myself and with Philip...
00:51:41See, it seems like that.
00:51:43Yeah.
00:51:48I see it as a catch-22.
00:51:53At the end of the whole experiment, you go back to Melbourne and I feel like...
00:51:59I cannot love a man that's going to leave with me.
00:52:03So, unless he gives me clarity, I can't be like, yes, I love you too.
00:52:13Philip, how does that feel to hear that?
00:52:16Um...
00:52:17I think that's unfair.
00:52:20Because everything from day dot is, I'm in Sydney, uh, this is what's happening.
00:52:25Just get on my program.
00:52:27This is it.
00:52:28It's like, this needs to happen or it's not going to work.
00:52:30That's a lot of pressure, yeah?
00:52:32The relationships come with conditions straight off the bat.
00:52:36So, it is very difficult for myself, you know?
00:52:44Sometimes she does talk to me in a certain way.
00:52:47That takes me down a peg.
00:52:49Give us an example, for instance.
00:52:52Like, questioning masculinity because, you know, like, me not wanting to go out after a massive week.
00:53:00Like, and for Stella to turn around just going, well, that's very feminine, what you're saying.
00:53:08That's a very feminine thing to do.
00:53:11Sometimes you just need to go and do what you don't want to do because that is the masculine thing
00:53:15to do.
00:53:16And just saying that I'm not masculine.
00:53:20That's very harsh.
00:53:22Mm-hmm.
00:53:23It's not a masculine energy.
00:53:24It's just a go energy that women and men can have.
00:53:27To tell him that it's feminine and it's really attacking his masculinity.
00:53:32Yeah.
00:53:33I'm not sure if you're aware of the impact that words like that can have.
00:53:39I don't want to push him away, but, like, that's what kind of happens in the background.
00:53:44I start to pick on him.
00:53:47So, it's like defense mechanism, I think, for me.
00:53:51I wouldn't like that to, to, to, I wouldn't like to deal with me in those moments.
00:53:59I have one question that pops to mind that I am curious about.
00:54:04How is the physical intimacy with one another?
00:54:09It's just not happening.
00:54:13Just not happening.
00:54:15Just a few short weeks ago, it was a very different story from both of you in that respect.
00:54:21With all the stuff mentally that was going on, I felt like a little bit, um, you know, underappreciated and
00:54:28all this kind of stuff.
00:54:28I'm like, well, why would I want to have sex like her and I don't feel like her right now.
00:54:35The thing is, um, I'm not on any birth control and he's terrified for an accident to happen.
00:54:44Oh, that's very easily, uh, salt, birth control.
00:54:50Um, I don't want to take tablets, personally.
00:54:54I, um, I was, like, I was like, hey, if you're so terrified of, um, making someone pregnant, maybe just
00:55:00do a snip.
00:55:05So, um.
00:55:09Has anyone heard of condoms?
00:55:10Yes, I was going to say, in the meantime, it's very easily solved with a trip to the pharmacy.
00:55:15Condoms, yeah.
00:55:16I, um, yeah, I don't like it.
00:55:20The reality is that there is quite early to be making a decision such as that, especially if you're thinking
00:55:26you want children in the future.
00:55:27They're reversible.
00:55:29They're reversible, of course, but it's a procedure.
00:55:32Yeah.
00:55:33There are other alternatives where you can make this work.
00:55:35Um, that really shouldn't be the factor to bring you guys apart.
00:55:41So, it almost seems like a little bit of an excuse.
00:55:46Maybe.
00:55:47To gloss over the disconnect.
00:55:50Maybe a little bit, because I've just been getting thrown around the mental ringer, so to speak.
00:55:57Yes.
00:55:57And I'm just like, do I even feel appreciated or is this someone that I should really be attracted to
00:56:01and putting my sexual energy towards?
00:56:03Because I just don't, like, I just, I feel sometimes that I'm just taken for granted.
00:56:10That's pretty major, to say.
00:56:13For me, it's just, I just need to feel like I'm fully emotionally wanted, like someone's 100% into it,
00:56:19then I can fully give 100% of myself to them.
00:56:22That's exactly what was happening early on, from Stella, I felt.
00:56:26And sometimes, as this experiment's been going on, there's just been little glimpses where I've seen that she's not into
00:56:32it, uh, sometimes.
00:56:35And it just kind of gets in my head a little bit, and I just withdraw a little bit of
00:56:39that attention, you know, until I get it built back up again, and then I feel comfortable to do it
00:56:43again.
00:56:46You guys are at a really crucial stage of your relationship now, and the conversations that you're having are really,
00:56:53really important.
00:56:56Stella, before you say something to him, I want you to think about, how's this going to land for him?
00:57:02How's this going to make Philip feel?
00:57:04Yeah.
00:57:05Before you deliver it.
00:57:07Yeah.
00:57:08Because my sense is, you might be having a few regrets.
00:57:11Has that been happening?
00:57:13Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:57:13Yeah, absolutely.
00:57:14After the fact.
00:57:15Absolutely.
00:57:15So let's try and eliminate that through self-awareness, which I know you have.
00:57:19Yeah.
00:57:20You guys have had a strong connection from the beginning, and have pretty much coasted through all the couch sessions.
00:57:27And there's a lot, clearly, that you hadn't been feeling like you could open up and talk to us about.
00:57:33So I think it's very productive that you have chosen to do that tonight, and I thank you both for
00:57:38that openness.
00:57:40And with all of this to consider and work on.
00:57:43Let's go to a decision for this week.
00:57:46Philip.
00:57:47Philip.
00:57:49So, that was a lot to take in.
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:51You know, and I'm glad that you just kind of told me what's on your minds.
00:57:55With that in mind, I'm going to be writing Stay.
00:57:58I love that.
00:57:59And Stella.
00:58:01Do you want to go?
00:58:03Yep.
00:58:05I wrote Stay.
00:58:10We've got work to do.
00:58:12You've got a little work to do, yes.
00:58:14That's all.
00:58:14Have a great week.
00:58:16Good luck.
00:58:16Very well done.
00:58:18Thank you, guys.
00:58:19Good luck.
00:58:24It's a very good job.
00:58:26Yeah.
00:58:28Yeah.
00:58:30Self-preservation comes in.
00:58:31Of course.
00:58:32In me being a little bitch.
00:58:35Sorry.
00:58:36Sorry.
00:58:48Coming up.
00:58:50Jules.
00:58:52Jules.
00:58:53Tonight's dramatic conclusion.
00:58:55Don't touch me.
00:58:57I'm out.
00:58:58I'm out.
00:58:59I want to go back in a business.
00:59:01No.
00:59:02No.
00:59:12Last stop on the couch.
00:59:14Juliet and Joel.
00:59:21Hello.
00:59:23Hi.
00:59:24You two.
00:59:24Oh, hello.
00:59:29What's happening?
00:59:34What's happening with you guys last time at the commitment
00:59:36ceremony?
00:59:37Juliet, you wrote a stay.
00:59:41And Joel, you had written leave.
00:59:43Then there's been quite a turnaround.
00:59:48Perfect couple alert.
00:59:52Shaky.
00:59:53Shaky last time.
00:59:54It was shaky, yeah.
00:59:55It was really shaky.
00:59:57Um, we hit rock bottom.
00:59:59Um, but, um, I think we've made quite a comeback.
01:00:03I have to say, I, um, I wasn't expecting such a strong, quick turnaround because the things
01:00:10that were said were so strong, um, that I can see how it would have been difficult to
01:00:17come out of that space, especially for you, Joel.
01:00:21Well, yeah, like, what happened was the following day, um, Juliet came into my apartment and she
01:00:27was crying.
01:00:28And she apologised again.
01:00:31And I really felt like it was heartfelt.
01:00:34And, um, I accepted her apology.
01:00:37It was like a reset button.
01:00:40And so, yeah, we went pub crawling.
01:00:45This is what, you know, a couple of beers and a palmy does.
01:00:49Yeah.
01:00:50So, um, as we progressed through the pubs, um, there was a certain warmness that was brewing.
01:00:58And then we went back to the apartment and vibes were good.
01:01:01One thing leads to another and, uh, a bit of hooking up, you know?
01:01:06Just a little bit of hooking up.
01:01:07Just a bit of hooking up?
01:01:08Mm-hmm.
01:01:09Such a go.
01:01:10And that was nice.
01:01:12Mm-hmm.
01:01:12I think we had a lot of kiss chemistry.
01:01:14The kiss chemistry was strong.
01:01:16Yeah.
01:01:17Yeah, it flipped.
01:01:19Like, I feel like the next day we both kind of texted each other and were like, what was
01:01:23that?
01:01:23Like, I, I, yeah, I completely saw Joel in a completely different light.
01:01:29I started feeling like I could trust him and I could feel like I wanted to be close with
01:01:33him and, like, kind of, yeah, touch his leg.
01:01:35And, like, yeah, I guess when we did retreat, I was like, why don't we give it a crack?
01:01:40Like, why don't we sleep in the same bed and see if there's chemistry inside the bed?
01:01:46And, yeah, it feels like he was, like, giving protector energy, which is another thing I'm
01:01:50attracted to.
01:01:52I think, like, Joel is brilliant in so many ways.
01:01:56There's just, you know, in a time of crisis when I'm feeling like I'm in a situation, I
01:02:05just hope that I would have more of a rock by my side.
01:02:11When did you need that from Joel specifically?
01:02:14When we had the dinner party, um, you know, when I was apologising to Beck and Danny for
01:02:22my crude words, um, I feel like the conversation was going on a lot longer and I kept trying
01:02:31to apologise, defuse it, defuse it, defuse it.
01:02:33And, um, I just kind of wanted Joel in that moment to just be like, look, she's apologised
01:02:39and taken accountability.
01:02:40Like, I think we can take a pause.
01:02:43And so I just kind of feel like I was fighting for myself a little bit and I admire how
01:02:48Danny
01:02:48was standing up for his wife and being there by Beck's side and I see Scott do it for Gia
01:02:54as well, you know, multiple times and David doing it for Alyssa and, and I just feel like
01:03:02I just didn't get that.
01:03:08What do you say to that, Joel?
01:03:10I felt like Danny and Beck were respectful to Juliet.
01:03:16I felt like they were giving her a fair shake.
01:03:20So I didn't feel the need to step in.
01:03:23If they were coming at her and attacking her and hurling insults at her, I would have stepped
01:03:29in.
01:03:30I just didn't see that.
01:03:31And I think Juliet has a different perspective on what happened.
01:03:40From everything that happened last week.
01:03:42Yeah.
01:03:43That was called out by Joel because he was on the receiving end of that.
01:03:49Why did you call Beck the names that you called Beck?
01:03:54Why choose again to use very aggressive, very vicious, very vile deliveries towards somebody
01:04:04else?
01:04:07I guess what I saw was the exact same behavior, simply a different target.
01:04:13Mm-hmm.
01:04:14So why choose to go there again?
01:04:22Honestly, I've seen Beck say much, much worse.
01:04:28In the same category, multiple times to multiple people here.
01:04:31Does it matter?
01:04:33We're not talking about ex-behavior or about Beck.
01:04:34I know, but that's why I felt comfortable doing it to Beck.
01:04:36I'm talking about your behavior.
01:04:37I know, but that's why I felt comfortable saying it to Beck.
01:04:45Why do you think Beck gets so under your skin?
01:04:51Because I think she gets away with a lot of her bad behavior.
01:04:54I haven't seen her take accountability for some of the things.
01:04:58She also claims she'll tell you one thing, and then when you address it, she'll claim
01:05:03you're lying, that gets under my skin, and I explode.
01:05:07Really pisses me off.
01:05:09Sorry, you called me a dumb effing and an effing freak multiple times.
01:05:15There we go.
01:05:16Point, sorry, excuse me.
01:05:17Express to me what your point is.
01:05:20This is why I feel angry.
01:05:22Because you've done the wrong thing, and you constantly say, but, but, but, but, but.
01:05:26Um, you should be careful with how much you are upset about me saying that.
01:05:34When I have screenshots of what you've said about Alyssa and David.
01:05:44Mmm.
01:05:47Vile.
01:05:48It was vile.
01:05:50It was vile.
01:05:51You said.
01:05:56Mmm.
01:06:00Oh.
01:06:01That's it.
01:06:01That's it.
01:06:01That's it.
01:06:05That's it.
01:06:06That's it.
01:06:08That's it.
01:06:11That's it.
01:06:11That's it.
01:06:11You should be careful with how much you are upset about me saying that when I have screenshots
01:06:19of what you've said about Alyssa and David.
01:06:22Vile. It was vile. It was vile. You said...
01:06:37It's disgusting, babe. Express to me what your point is.
01:06:40This is why I feel angry. This is why I feel angry.
01:06:44What are you trying to prove? You're trying to make me look bad.
01:06:47Because I'm disgusted. You get away with everything.
01:06:48What have I done to you personally to deserve that?
01:06:51You try to trap me into these conversations.
01:06:54It's how you try to get into my head.
01:06:57I'm not talking to you about it anymore.
01:06:59Thank you, guys.
01:07:04And I was not part of that.
01:07:08Juliette, so how do you have screenshots?
01:07:23Gia sent them to me.
01:07:30What?
01:07:34Why would you do that, Gia?
01:07:36She asked what she was like, so I sent some screenshots of, like, conversations.
01:07:40I don't look great in them either.
01:07:43She's so stupid.
01:07:44And then I heard that you were excited that I was going to get f***ed up on the CC couch.
01:07:50Like, that's such an evil thing to hope for.
01:07:54She said that to Gia at the nail salon.
01:08:00I didn't say she's going to get f***ed.
01:08:01I said she's f***ed, babe.
01:08:03I said you said dumb f***ed.
01:08:06She said you're going to get in trouble for saying dumb f***ed for CC.
01:08:10I said you were going to hold accountable for the way in which you spoke to me.
01:08:13Yeah.
01:08:14That's such an evil thing to hope for.
01:08:16And that's why we came up with a plan of let's address the screenshots then.
01:08:21This is the time to use it.
01:08:28So it was a plan.
01:08:31Just to be clear, Gia, you sent the screenshots to Juliet with the intent that it be used against Beck
01:08:37in her argument.
01:08:40I said bad things in there too. I didn't really want them out.
01:08:44It just shows that me calling her a DC is, it shouldn't have not been out like blown up into
01:08:53such a big thing when she's done much worse.
01:09:03Wow. Can I please give you some insight?
01:09:06Of course.
01:09:08You could not be further from the truth.
01:09:13It is shocking that you would think that.
01:09:16Yeah.
01:09:19It makes you look so much worse.
01:09:22Okay, for sure.
01:09:23Than Beck.
01:09:25It's like conscious retaliation with the purpose to hurt.
01:09:33I know.
01:09:40And again, you know, I'm still, I'm covering, I'm covering up so much.
01:09:46I'm covering up so much.
01:09:47I just don't, I don't think this experiment is for me.
01:09:51I don't.
01:09:56Gia, what the f***?
01:10:02Gia!
01:10:05Jules!
01:10:14She's about to face some music and she bolts.
01:10:17Mm-hmm.
01:10:19Jules.
01:10:20No, f*** off.
01:10:21Jules.
01:10:22Did you just hear that?
01:10:26Jules, talk to me.
01:10:27F*** off.
01:10:30Jules.
01:10:32Done.
01:10:32You're such a dog.
01:10:34What do you mean?
01:10:34You're actually a pig.
01:10:35You're a dog and a pig.
01:10:37Hey, Jules.
01:10:38That was really, yeah.
01:10:39Jules, what's going on?
01:10:41Gaslight nap.
01:10:42What's going on?
01:10:43Mm-mm, I'm going home.
01:10:44What's going on?
01:10:45Why are you going?
01:10:45Because you just literally don't touch me.
01:10:49What?
01:10:50I'm going back to Melbourne.
01:10:51Where are you going?
01:10:52You just completely threw me under the bus.
01:10:53How?
01:10:54Yeah.
01:10:55Disgusting.
01:10:55I have to be honest.
01:10:59I have to be honest.
01:11:01I'm so evil.
01:11:02What are you talking about?
01:11:03So evil.
01:11:04F*** off.
01:11:05Jules, come on, stay.
01:11:06We gotta...
01:11:07Oh my God, ew.
01:11:08It's unresolved.
01:11:09You can't just leave.
01:11:10Get away.
01:11:11Are you leaving?
01:11:11Yeah, I'm going back to Melbourne.
01:11:13Go away.
01:11:14What do you mean?
01:11:15Come on.
01:11:16Come on.
01:11:16Stay.
01:11:17Come on.
01:11:18It's yours.
01:11:23Yeah.
01:11:37She got caught out of it.
01:11:40Should I take if they're all right?
01:11:42Yeah.
01:11:42Should I take if they're all right?
01:11:43Yeah.
01:11:43Should I take if they're all right?
01:11:44She's all right.
01:11:45It's all right.
01:11:47I feel like she's going to come back and come for me because I didn't like her.
01:12:11Screenshot, what was that?
01:12:14You are something else, man.
01:12:18Who, me?
01:12:19It's not nice to hear, but obviously, like, you know?
01:12:24Well, I don't think we should get into it anymore.
01:12:26Bec said this.
01:12:27I'm not, like, me and Bec both said shit like this.
01:12:30This was weeks ago.
01:12:30I don't think it's a pretty gross, but, you know.
01:12:38You're going to laugh while you cry, man.
01:12:41Honestly.
01:12:43If I feel sick.
01:12:45It's all right.
01:12:50Look, I just don't want to keep getting f***ed.
01:12:52I know.
01:12:59I'm going to the toilet.
01:13:01I have to pee.
01:13:03I have to pee.
01:13:04Sorry.
01:13:05No, I've got to pee.
01:13:07No.
01:13:08No.
01:13:18Where's Julia at?
01:13:25Go on.
01:13:28Great.
01:13:29Okay, I'm going.
01:13:30Can you get me an Uber, please?
01:13:33Can you do mic me, please?
01:13:34Unclip this.
01:13:35No, I want to go, like, in a person.
01:13:37Is that right?
01:13:37No.
01:13:41No, I'm out.
01:13:42I'm out.
01:13:45I want to go home.
01:13:48And no one can copy it, man.
01:13:50I can't.
01:13:51I showed screenshots to a girlfriend.
01:13:53Sue me.
01:13:54Like, sorry.
01:13:55Bec's talking shit about me nonstop to everyone.
01:13:57Focus is never on me and Scott.
01:13:59It's about everyone else around me and Scott.
01:14:01It's not fair.
01:14:04Oh, you're not Gia.
01:14:05Yeah.
01:14:06Yeah.
01:14:06Yeah.
01:14:06Yeah.
01:14:18Yeah.
01:14:51Come and grab a seat.
01:14:52Yes, Joel.
01:14:55It's all you, Joel.
01:15:03Did you speak to her?
01:15:05Juliet did what Juliet does.
01:15:08She stormed out.
01:15:10She's gone.
01:15:12Oh.
01:15:13Oh.
01:15:14Hmm.
01:15:16And that's such an extreme decision.
01:15:20Leave the experiment.
01:15:22So that's very revealing.
01:15:26What did she have to say?
01:15:29She called me a dog and a pig.
01:15:32No.
01:15:35I'm really sorry you had to listen to her call you names.
01:15:41Mm.
01:15:41Um, after you were so clearly enthused with what seemed to be progress and better direction.
01:15:49I thought I would give her a chance, right?
01:15:55I think you've been incredibly generous to her, given how she's behaved, not only towards
01:16:01you, but towards others in the experiment.
01:16:04Joel, you are no doubt a flamboyant and charismatic character, but what you've done throughout this
01:16:15experiment, you've been yourself.
01:16:18You've never wavered on that, and particularly what I admire about you is that you have owned everything that you've
01:16:25done.
01:16:26Regardless, you've never deflected it.
01:16:29You've just taken it on and said, this is me, I'm proud of who I am.
01:16:33You've been consistent throughout.
01:16:35You have maintained incredible integrity.
01:16:39You're to be commended.
01:16:40Thank you very much.
01:16:41Thank you very much.
01:16:41I appreciate that.
01:16:43We've been sitting here watching you week after week thinking, this man is carrying so much.
01:16:51I think it would have been really hard.
01:16:53It's been an absolute pleasure having you in the experiment.
01:16:58We really wish you all the very best for the future.
01:17:02Thank you, Joel.
01:17:08Join the group.
01:17:18Where is she?
01:17:21Where is Gia?
01:17:29Where is she?
01:17:31Where is she?
01:17:31She's gone.
01:17:33No, she's not.
01:17:35What do you mean?
01:17:36She grabbed her stuff before and she asked for an Uber.
01:17:41You're right.
01:17:50I just had a great couch session.
01:17:53Like we have so much going for one another.
01:17:58But sometimes other girls and their bullshit can interfere.
01:18:04I'm just a bit jittery.
01:18:05I don't know.
01:18:06I don't know.
01:18:09You can't leave like that.
01:18:12We're falling for each other.
01:18:17I'm not going to sit here without her.
01:18:18So yeah, I want to go get my wife.
01:18:44Tomorrow night, all will be revealed.
01:18:50It's all here.
01:18:51What I just read was disgusting.
01:18:55What happens when Bette comes face to face with David after those text messages?
01:19:01The comments were wild, disgusting, like mean and vicious.
01:19:04But how do you know what they were?
01:19:07We've seen them.
01:19:08We've seen them.
