00:02Previously on Temptation Island.
00:04Let me be the first to welcome you to Temptation Island.
00:07What did we just get ourselves into?
00:09Let's bring it on.
00:10Bring it on.
00:11We see y'all.
00:12Oh my God.
00:13Damn.
00:15Damn.
00:15All right, calm down.
00:17Oh my God, I'm having a heart attack.
00:18You've come here to embark on a journey where you'll be single again and date other people.
00:23Oh no.
00:24I'm scared that I might lose this.
00:30Twelve single men and twelve single women.
00:32Okay, I'm a little distracted.
00:35Who have all come to this island to find love with one of you.
00:40To say his rules are meant to be broken, am I right?
00:45There was one guy that we had like the best conversation.
00:48Everything he said was like everything I wanted to hear.
00:51Like we had that bond.
00:52And we don't really have that.
00:55We're putting everything on the line.
00:57Are you scared?
00:58I am scared.
01:00Ah.
01:02You're not gonna tempt me.
01:06You'll never forget me.
01:09You're not gonna tempt me.
01:16You're not gonna tempt me.
01:19You'll never forget me.
01:23You're not gonna tempt me.
01:36Now it's time to say goodbye.
01:38We're not where we used to be.
01:43Okay.
01:47It's never going to get easier, so let's go.
01:49Ladies, take care of each other.
01:51I'll check in with you soon.
01:52Yeah, I'm very afraid to lose Edgar.
01:54I miss him so much already, and I'm afraid that just this experience will teach me that
02:00it's more right to be alone, 21 years old.
02:06I cannot believe that I just saw my eyes out like that.
02:10It's okay.
02:11Oh my God, I need to be hugged.
02:13I need, like, something to cuddle.
02:18Hello, hello.
02:19Hello, ladies.
02:20Hey, guys.
02:20Hello, hello.
02:21Y'all look good.
02:21Wow.
02:22I was not expecting that.
02:24Well, here we are.
02:25Let me get some.
02:26Let's get fixed up.
02:26Oh, let's go.
02:27All right.
02:28Oh, drinks.
02:28Let's do some drinks.
02:29Yeah.
02:30Drinks.
02:30Drinks.
02:31Let's go.
02:31All of the guys just moved in tonight, and it's definitely not something I'm prepared for,
02:37really.
02:37Let's go.
02:38I also feel like I need a handbook with all of their pictures and names on it because there's
02:43so many of them to remember.
02:45Yeah, we can get it.
02:46Yeah, we can get it.
02:46Yeah, we can get it.
02:47Let's go.
02:51Hey, if my shirt comes off, it won't be mine.
02:54Are we going to get a little show going on?
02:55I know Iris has some trust issues with me, and it's going to be the make or break time in
03:02our relationship.
03:03Prove to her that I can be more serious in just the loving aspect of things.
03:08Get it all out of here.
03:09You say it all out of here?
03:10Get it all out of here.
03:14I am here to confess that I think Luke is the hottest boy here.
03:26There's a part of me that wishes to not have too much of a good time too quickly.
03:31You know, I want to, you know, still think about Ashley.
03:33I don't want to throw seven years down the drain.
03:35But at the same time, I also want to go on this journey knowing that I'm doing this for
03:37myself as well.
03:39All right, let's get a drink.
03:40Let's get a drink.
03:40Let's go.
03:40Come.
03:42LaSalle's is really cute.
03:43We call him Loss.
03:44We already have a nickname.
03:46Yeah, he's perfect.
03:47I basically, jeez, it's hard.
03:50It's hard.
03:51To get to the off time.
03:52You know, you know, I think you asked for it earlier.
03:54Like a hundred times, but it's fine.
03:56I actually tried maybe five times tonight to just talk to him by ourselves.
04:01Can we join you guys?
04:02We're just going to be a fly on the wall because it seems like appropriate.
04:05Every time we sat down, five girls came.
04:09And I love all the girls, so I can't even get mad.
04:11But like, please give me a chance to talk to this man by myself.
04:15Wherever a boy is at.
04:18Come sit, come sit, come sit.
04:19I don't want to sit on the floor.
04:20Come, come on.
04:20No, no, no, no, come.
04:21I like the ground.
04:21Come, come.
04:22No, no, no, no.
04:22You don't like the ground enough.
04:23Come on.
04:24Oh, I'm trying.
04:26No, I'm back.
04:28You checked?
04:29No, I said I tried.
04:30I know.
04:30I'm so overwhelmed.
04:33You know, it's like, uh, yeah, like, what does our relationship look like?
04:40You know, is it long distance but open or is it over for now?
04:47You know, I mean, we have been.
04:49She's not stoked about the idea of an open relationship.
04:54How do you feel about that?
04:56Historically, my dating has been pretty casual.
04:59The idea of long distance to me seems really difficult and I think, you know, Ash and I
05:05are both physical people and need that physical attention from our partner and if our partner
05:11can't be there to give us that attention, then we'll seek it somewhere else.
05:16Well, thanks for understanding.
05:18Oh, my gosh, of course.
05:20Well, you're a therapist and all, so.
05:22Oh, you remember?
05:23How could I forget?
05:26Yeah.
05:27Okay.
05:32I couldn't remember anyone's names.
05:34I'm worried about people's like, be nice.
05:36Yes.
05:37You were braids.
05:39What was that?
05:40You were hocus pocus.
05:41Tarzan.
05:42You were jeans.
05:43Jeans?
05:44Oh, wait.
05:45Oh, my gosh.
05:48This is actually like an honest question.
05:51What does love mean to you?
05:53It's more than just a word.
05:54It's like a feeling, but like a deeper feeling.
05:56It's anything you want it to be.
05:57That's why I'm asking you.
05:58What is it to you?
05:58I felt like Mike was definitely asking me those deep emotional questions that I've never been
06:05asked in my life or LaSalle's never asked me these type of questions and it really, you
06:10know, had me like just mind blown.
06:13I'm like, all right, what really makes me happy?
06:16What is love?
06:18Trying to figure out why there was a connection instantly.
06:22Not a connection after four days.
06:25It's a connection.
06:26It's almost like I feel like I've seen you before or something.
06:28It's like, I was like, I think I've seen you in my dreams.
06:31I said that as I walk by.
06:33It sounds to me like the one thing that's really lacking in Ashley's relationship is he
06:38doesn't appreciate her enough.
06:39And I think this experience might help her realize that there's a man out there that could
06:43appreciate her even more.
06:45I feel like we've been here for a while.
06:46What do you want out?
06:47Because I could sit with you here really all night.
06:49I love this.
06:50I really do.
06:51I really feel like a genuine.
06:53Yeah, I do.
06:53Like it's tight.
06:56This one actually is my promise ring with Edgar.
07:00Okay.
07:01Which I really haven't thought about until just this moment.
07:05He got it for me after he cheated on me.
07:10Like I don't know if I will continue wearing the promise ring.
07:15Like what do I, what do I do?
07:17What do I do?
07:18Do I, what do I do?
07:20I mean.
07:21I don't think I have a reason to take it off yet.
07:24Not yet.
07:24In my experience, dealing with trust issues is so difficult.
07:30It's hard to heal that wound.
07:31It's like it always is open.
07:33I don't know.
07:34It's really complicated.
07:35Yeah, of course.
07:36It's really complicated.
07:36I'm starting to realize that nothing's really been the same since he cheated on me.
07:41I, I did mention you to Edgar earlier.
07:43I said like, I was like, I feel like there was one person that I had like a bit of
07:48a connection with.
07:52Hey, let's cheers, shall we?
07:55Let's close with some great relationships no matter what, development.
07:57You have to make eye contact or else bad sex for seven years.
08:00That, yes, that's right too.
08:02She's the one that brought us here.
08:03Mm-hmm.
08:04Because she has always had the doubts of like wanting to be single and alone and independent.
08:09You know, in her 20s, she totally respects.
08:11Right.
08:12I would marry her if we were both sure.
08:17Right.
08:19I don't think she would marry me.
08:21If you're not receiving that love that you feel like you deserve and you want to give to her,
08:26then I don't think that's fair for you to have to suffer and like feel less than because, you know,
08:31she's in a different spot.
08:31But as much as you want it, you know, it's just may be time for you to kind of explore
08:37other options, you know?
08:39Yeah.
08:41You know?
08:42I got to see a very vulnerable side of Edgar and, you know, it really resonated with me and touched
08:48my heart
08:48because at first, you know, he's really quiet and I can tell he really loves his girlfriend.
08:52But I feel like he's a little lost right now.
08:55Just stay true to yourself, you know?
08:58Yeah.
09:12Which sailboat would you steal?
09:15Right there.
09:17That one.
09:17The yacht?
09:18That one right there.
09:19Good to meet another weirdo.
09:21Yes.
09:21Yes, indeed.
09:23I haven't been around single men in a long time.
09:26This is going to sound a little bad.
09:27It takes me a minute to like have respect for men.
09:31I'm going to have to ask this.
09:32Have you reached a point in your relationship where you've lost respect for your men?
09:39Um, no.
09:40Is there something he can do on this island to make you lose respect for him?
09:45I mean, if I see him like having sex with another girl, keep it in your pants, like, you know
09:50what I mean?
09:51You can have an emotional connection without doing all that.
09:53Wow, wow.
09:53You're not afraid of a man having an emotional connection to another woman.
09:57You're not afraid of that.
10:01No, I am.
10:02If he comes here and meets somebody else and forms a connection and, like, wants to leave with them, like,
10:09I will be very, very heartbroken.
10:13You're college sweethearts.
10:15And now I'm scared that I've taken our relationship for granted.
10:18I need to sit down for a minute and talk.
10:20Yeah.
10:21And then I've asked too many questions that didn't need to be asked instead of just accepting the amazing thing
10:26that we have.
10:27He was, like, asking me about, like, Edgar, and I was just super reminded about, like, why I love him
10:32so much.
10:33And now I feel so emotional, and I just, not that I want to, like, crawl in bed and cry,
10:38but I kind of want to crawl in bed and cry.
10:40Oh, I know.
10:42Oh, I don't want to give him makeup all over you.
10:44It's going to be okay.
10:54How was the dinner?
10:56How did it go, saying goodbye?
10:58It was rough, dude.
11:00Like, I want to work on myself, but more than anything, I want her to answer her questions.
11:04Like, do you want to do this with me or not?
11:06Like.
11:07Yeah.
11:08I just, I don't want to express it, but I guess it just feels like I'm, she's been, like, dragging
11:14me along.
11:14It's really nice to meet a guy, and he is genuine and real about how he's feeling.
11:20Thanks for talking to me, though.
11:21Thanks for talking to me.
11:22You're easy to talk.
11:23I feel like we're helping each other.
11:25He's helping me open up, and I'm helping him through this experience.
11:29Last night.
11:30It was fun.
11:30It was fun.
11:32You know, you're in this situation, you still have your girlfriends, but it's, like, are you actually interested in, like,
11:37really getting to know us and, like, really maybe getting to that point with someone new?
11:41I think it's because I've been in the seven-year bubble, and all my future is just with Ash in
11:46mind, and there's nothing wrong with that.
11:47Yep.
11:47And I think that's why this whole situation is very interesting, especially for, like, longer-term relationships, because it's, like,
11:52that's all you know.
11:53Yeah.
11:54Ash and I have been together for seven years.
11:56We haven't been able to date with anybody else.
11:59We want to be able to take the next step, but we just want to make sure that, you know,
12:03we are the exact right people for each other.
12:05Who's catching your attention?
12:09Um, you, of course.
12:11Uh, that's not obvious.
12:13But you don't get offended.
12:14But you remind me of my girlfriend, because you guys have a lot of similarities.
12:16But there's also things that make you stand out.
12:18And I feel that genuine connection with you already, even though we, you know, we just met a day ago.
12:26Oh, my God, I can't feel your grip.
12:29Two drinks and start to sleep.
12:32The time waking up to this.
12:35I should have known better, because you're dangerous.
12:38Hola, papi.
12:40Hola, chula.
12:42You guys are good?
12:43I've missed you.
12:43You're good.
12:44Today is date selection day, and I am nervous as hell.
12:47I'm about to show Ashley who I'm interested in, and I'm going to see what fool she's going to pick.
12:53Hello, everybody.
12:54It's good to see you.
12:55Hi.
12:55Hey, Mike.
12:56So, welcome to date selection.
12:58Now's the time to pick the single you'd like to get to know better.
13:02Jillian, we're going to start with you.
13:03How did I know?
13:06Hey, ladies.
13:07Be on your best behavior.
13:10Too late.
13:12Tommy, do you want to come on a date with me?
13:15I would love to.
13:15Okay.
13:17Sounds good.
13:18Watching Jillian pick Tommy, I think he looks, like, stupid, but that's my own perception of it,
13:24and I don't know the guy, so I'm not going to speak bad on his name.
13:28But, yeah, it's fine.
13:29It's fine.
13:31It's just fine.
13:32All right.
13:33Well, Jillian, I let you go first, and I think it's only fair that I let Edgar go next.
13:37Let's do it.
13:38Gosh, my heart is racing.
13:41Where's that?
13:42I'm going to date with me.
13:43Will you go on a date with me?
13:44Yes.
13:45I liked it.
13:49He's not going to look at me.
13:52He just didn't look at me.
13:54I don't know if I feel, like, threatened by her, but I could see him falling for somebody
13:59like that.
14:00Like, completely falling for them.
14:02I am dying right now.
14:04Iris, you've thought about this.
14:06It's your turn to make a choice.
14:07Okay.
14:16I see Iris picking George, and I'm a little jealous just to see my girl with somebody
14:21else.
14:22It's a hard pill to swallow.
14:24It's scary, man.
14:25I feel like I'm playing with fire.
14:26Now it's Luke's turn.
14:28Okay, Luke, who's it going to be?
14:30Let's see.
14:35So many to choose from.
14:37I don't know.
14:38But I think I'm going to go with Mrs. Juicy.
14:41Let's go.
14:42Let's go, babe.
14:43Let's do it.
14:45Being like, wow, so many girls to choose from.
14:49And I thought that was kind of rude.
14:53I still love you, dude.
14:55I love you, too.
14:57Like, what do you mean, too?
14:58Ashley, your turn.
14:59Who's the lucky guy?
15:00Let's see.
15:05Mike, would you like to be my first date?
15:08I'd love to.
15:09Great.
15:10Being that I'm her type, her pick was interesting, to say the least.
15:14If I could warn the guy, I would just say she gets turned off very easily by overaggressive
15:19people and be respectful.
15:21She's also a very picky eater, so keep that in mind as well.
15:25Lascelles, it's your turn.
15:26Let's do it.
15:27Oh, let's see, baby.
15:31Fellas?
15:34It's going to be a tough choice.
15:37Patrice, would you like to go on my first date?
15:39She's a baddie.
15:40Seeing Lascelles choose my twin with the weave was definitely not surprising.
15:44Cute, tall, model look.
15:46I see where you're headed at.
15:49So, Ash, it's your turn to make a choice?
15:51Okay.
15:52I guess.
16:00Taylor.
16:02I will go with you.
16:05I'm a little surprised by who she picked.
16:08Got this blonde hair, and he's like super fit physique and like overconfident, but I'm not
16:14worried.
16:14Anya, who is the lucky person that gets to go on your first date?
16:18I feel like the lucky one, Mark.
16:20Well said, sir.
16:23Chrislyn, would you do me the pleasure of being my first date?
16:26Of course.
16:27Wow, she's beautiful.
16:30She is, oh, so stunning.
16:32I could be screwed.
16:35Okay, your first dates are set.
16:37Have fun.
16:38You can head back to your villas, and I'll see you soon.
16:40All right.
16:40Thanks, Mark.
16:41All right.
16:41Thanks, Mark.
16:42Part of me is starting to panic because I don't know if I'm not in front of him.
16:46I still exist.
16:50So, I'm nervous, but I still hope that it can be a learning lesson, and maybe I'm wrong.
17:05Are you ready?
17:09I was thinking earlier today about the first dates I've been on and sort of that feeling
17:13of like, this is like new.
17:15I was just like, I want to go on this date with her, and so like, hey, I'm over here.
17:21When Iris chose me, I knew we had something real.
17:25She's sweet.
17:26She's a kind woman, and honestly, I mean, she's beautiful.
17:29So, how do you like your meat?
17:31I usually do medium rare, but I'm cool with it anyway.
17:34Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
17:36So, you like yours, too?
17:37Well, yeah, I'm a vegetarian.
17:39Oh, yeah?
17:40Oh, my God.
17:41You're the sweetest.
17:42I'm very comfortable with George.
17:44He's just such a good person.
17:45He cooks for everybody, watches out for everybody.
17:48Everyone just thinks so highly of him.
17:51That is a quality that I always wanted and deserve.
17:54It smells so good.
17:57I'm glad you like it.
17:59It's amazing.
18:01Oh, you got that sticky stuff.
18:03Peanut butter on my tongue.
18:05All right, guys, welcome to your first Temptation Island party.
18:08Ignite your sensation.
18:09Oh, my God.
18:10Wow.
18:11All right, ladies, have your way with it.
18:17Oh, my God.
18:22This is going to be a sticky situation, my friends.
18:25A very, very sticky situation.
18:27Let it rain.
18:29Oh, shit.
18:30Oh, shit.
18:31Oh, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
18:33Oh, shit.
18:36Whoa.
18:36Whoa.
18:38Oh, my God.
18:41Hanya, help me, buddy.
18:42I can't help you.
18:44What is going on?
18:47Oh, my God.
18:48This was the sloppiest first date I've ever had.
18:52I mean, this isn't even a date, though.
18:54This is not even.
18:55Party night two, and here we are, like,
18:57licking chocolate off of each other.
19:04Yes, baby.
19:07All right, ladies, we're going to return the fire.
19:09Now we got the ammo.
19:15No, I texted you.
19:17It's a little on your face.
19:19Okay.
19:19Would you like some whipped cream?
19:21I'll take a taste.
19:26Wait, whoever that was, Mariah, come back.
19:28I need another one.
19:33Yes!
19:34We got a lot of chocolate on our chocolate.
19:36We do.
19:37Now you owe me a hug.
19:38You feel good?
19:39I feel sticky.
19:40Yeah.
19:41And I feel sweet.
19:43Yes, party in the shower.
19:45Let's go.
19:48Feeling very sticky right now, for sure.
19:52That's nuts.
20:08Okay, boys, are you ready to get wild?
20:18Oh, my God.
20:23All right, everybody.
20:25Here we go.
20:25To a wild night.
20:36I'm really comfortable with you.
20:39Taylor's really funny and isn't afraid to be a clown.
20:42And we kind of feed each other's weird.
20:45And I'm able to be myself and feel my flame kind of reignite.
20:52I didn't come here to steal nobody's love.
20:54I just can't go to help people.
20:56I swear to God.
20:58Oh, God.
20:58There's so many things that I don't know how to put to words right now.
21:01But, like, I'm very, very much in love with Hanya.
21:09I'm happy for you.
21:10I am a very, very physical person.
21:12With Hanya, I don't personally know the guy.
21:15But from what I hear, he's not giving her everything she needs.
21:18So I'm going to make her feel good about herself and happy in this very crazy environment.
21:23I'm not the one with the open relationship idea.
21:26But, like, maybe, you know what?
21:27No, I'm done.
21:29You want to go get a drink?
21:30We should drink.
21:32The end is coming.
21:34I can feel it.
21:56You have a straight head on.
21:59Oh, that's true.
22:00I'm trying to do that later.
22:02You've shown me that, like, you were interested.
22:04Like, you gave me the eyes.
22:04I told you.
22:05Like, yeah, I mean.
22:05You told me.
22:06You said.
22:06I like you and only you.
22:08Hi.
22:09I appreciate that.
22:10Yeah, so.
22:11I love your spirit.
22:13That's what I'm saying.
22:13That's why I think this one-on-one time was super essential because I know you have a lot to
22:17offer.
22:18You know, I have been picking up on, you know, small player vibes and being overly available.
22:26He's very adamant on, like, giving everyone a chance, which is great.
22:29Like, we're here to experience and, like, get to know people.
22:31But at the same time, like, don't try to make me feel special if that's the same thing you're feeding
22:36to everyone else.
22:37I'm grown.
22:38I know what I want.
22:39And it's just like if we're just in a situation where it's like, I'm just testing the waters.
22:43That'd be cool.
22:44Make it feel like that.
22:44But don't make me feel special if you're going to go and tell someone else.
22:47It's the same, exact same thing.
22:48Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:49I'm thankful that you told me this.
22:51Because I can see when you back up and you're observing how I am, I might look like a hoe.
22:57Yeah.
22:59So you have to tell me.
23:00You have to tell me what's okay and what's not.
23:02Because, like, I want to, like, give people the chance.
23:05Like, how do you?
23:05I don't know if this is new to me.
23:07I'm really conflicted because I have my girlfriend thinking about me.
23:09I have, you know, Trace thinking about me.
23:11And it's, like, more pressure to me.
23:14I'm like, damn, man.
23:17I'm going to do better.
23:19I promise you.
23:20I'm going to do better.
23:21Okay.
23:24She's super attractive, super pretty, super juicy.
23:27We both have some unresolved trauma.
23:29But we just need to, like, you know, I related to you with that.
23:34Me and Luke have a lot in common.
23:35I could probably talk to Luke for hours and hours and never get bored.
23:39We can dig deep for a second.
23:40You know, I told him about my sister.
23:42We, like, have a lot of issues.
23:44So I always had felt like I have to be the one to hold it together.
23:48I feel like it's almost a lost cause for me a lot of the time.
23:51I'm just like, dude, like, I can't let this, I can't let these burdens pull me and weigh me down.
23:57You have to resolve it in some way to move forward.
24:01I'm so easily able to be an open book around her.
24:05She is funny and weird, just like me.
24:07And when I get that kind of vibe, I know I can open up to that person.
24:12Can I ask you, do you guys have any rules with each other?
24:15Um, we don't really have any rules other than be respectful.
24:19You know, I think there's, like, a little bit of maybe an unspoken rule.
24:23Like, don't have sex with anybody, please, you know?
24:25Ash and I are pretty physical.
24:27We touch a lot.
24:28We're hugging and kissing, and I think the sex is great.
24:32As a physical person, I think I'm going to crave that kind of attention.
24:37That will be a big temptation.
24:39Um, but she said kissing was okay, so we'll see if it gets to that point.
24:43Mm-hmm.
24:44Um, but yeah, mostly to just be respectful, you know?
24:47No, definitely.
24:55I'm doing something in my head where I'm, like, deciding whether or not I should suggest something, but...
25:02Just say yes.
25:03Huh?
25:04Just say yes.
25:18Well, I find it funny and cute, and it really doesn't bother me at all by any means.
25:22Will you watch me while I sleep?
25:26So I dream about you?
25:29I'm very physically attracted to Taylor.
25:32His body is very different from Hanya's.
25:36I enjoy making contact with Taylor.
25:41I'm just very careful.
25:46I want to still be considerate of my partner.
26:09We are on the water, as long as we're not getting blindfolded.
26:15I have never been on a jet ski before in my life, so I'm really excited to get out, adventure,
26:21and just have a good time.
26:22Are you excited?
26:23I'm so excited.
26:26It's been three years since I've been on the first date.
26:29I picked Marissa because she's so easy to talk to.
26:32She's so easygoing.
26:33We made a connection really fast.
26:34Are you getting nice?
26:35Yeah.
26:35It'll be fun.
26:36Are you excited?
26:37Yeah, I'm excited.
26:37Reveal the speedo.
26:44On his speedo, the look.
26:47I love it.
26:48If he likes it, I love it.
26:52High five, guys.
26:58That's what I'm talking about.
26:59First date action.
27:12Oh my god, look at the view.
27:14So gorgeous.
27:16So today is date day.
27:17We are paragliding.
27:18We're going to be birds.
27:20We're going to be an eagle.
27:22And I'm going to be an owl.
27:23I am definitely thinking of my kiss with Taylor.
27:27But I'm also really scared of heights.
27:30I need to sit.
27:31I'm having a...
27:32I think I can throw up.
27:33Oh my god, they're going low!
27:35Here we go.
27:37Oh my god!
27:40Oh my god!
27:41Oh my god!
27:42Yes!
27:43Don't walk in the other one, don't kill my arm.
27:45Oh my god!
27:49Oh my god!
27:49Oh my god!
27:50Almost how high!
27:51Oh my goodness.
27:51Oh my god, baby!
27:54King, one, two, three, go!
27:58It's like a big swing.
28:01I am incredibly proud of myself for being able to push through.
28:05It's why I'm on the island, is to push past my fears
28:07and lean into that, which makes me uncomfortable.
28:11You did it!
28:12You did it!
28:13You did it!
28:15Whoa.
28:16We have some heavy winds now.
28:18Well, I'm thinking positive.
28:19I don't know about you.
28:20No, I am too.
28:20Like, I'm thinking we could crash or get married or, you know.
28:23Oh my god.
28:24One together.
28:25This first date for me with her is setting the bar.
28:27I'm going to run with it as long as she lets me,
28:29which I'm confident is going to be a pretty long time.
28:32That's beautiful.
28:33Yeah.
28:33But, like, you're way prettier.
28:35Heaven on earth.
28:36Speaking of which, did it hurt?
28:39You know, I love that I'm egging you on and, like, nothing's working.
28:41You're just cool as a cucumber.
28:43I don't know if I have that connection with Mike that I had the first time I saw him,
28:47but I'm like, you don't have to pick a line.
28:49Just have a normal conversation.
28:50Be yourself.
28:51Like, out of pick-up lines, there's no chocolate.
28:55I felt like maybe the first time we had that connection was fake.
29:00Are you playing games?
29:01I mean, I think life's the game.
29:04So, yeah.
29:06But don't hate the player.
29:08Hate the game?
29:09Yeah.
29:09Fall on desire and jump in the fire, taking you higher.
29:15We're in the middle of a body of water.
29:17Like, anything can happen right now.
29:18Having that trust in someone, especially so quickly and, like, being like,
29:22okay, I'm okay with having my life in his hands.
29:24Yeah.
29:25That's big.
29:26Yeah.
29:26Every time I'm talking to you, I've learned something new about myself,
29:29and it's just the beginning.
29:30So, I feel like that makes me feel, no, seriously, you're like, you're what I need,
29:36you know?
29:36And whatever capacity that is, it's, no, it's, it's, it's real.
29:42I'm feeling a genuine connection with Trace.
29:44I'm super attracted to her.
29:45She has everything I want in a woman.
29:48This happened very quickly.
29:49But I'm trying not to make it too fast.
29:53I don't want to be superficial about it.
29:55I'm feeling really connected to you, like, emotionally, physically, everything.
29:58We're just getting started.
29:59Yeah.
30:00Let's go ahead and do this.
30:00That's crazy.
30:01I know.
30:02We have a lot more.
30:02We love more.
30:04Living it up.
30:07Living the best life.
30:11Only spread love.
30:13I came here originally to learn how to be independent again and, you know, see if I, like, prefer being
30:19single or being in a relationship at my young age.
30:22Yeah.
30:22But, you know, I wasn't really expecting to, like, meet somebody that I get along with so well.
30:28The more I learn about Tommy, the more things I like about him.
30:31He has this sort of fearless quality about him that I really love and I relate to.
30:37It's really exciting to know that there may be someone besides Edgar who could be a good fit for me.
30:42I feel like I can really be myself around you, which is really, really nice.
30:45Hopefully you feel the same way as well.
30:47I feel extremely comfortable.
30:49Yeah.
30:49I feel like I just want to, like, keep hanging out.
30:52I'm like, I don't want this date to end.
30:53I know.
30:56Well, cheers to an amazing day.
30:58To an amazing day.
30:59To an amazing date.
31:00Mm-hmm.
31:00Cheers.
31:08I feel like we connected pretty fast.
31:12In the house, I feel like I'm in a bubble, but then, like, the minute I talk to you, it's,
31:16like, nothing else matters.
31:20You know what I'm saying?
31:21Yeah, to have that space and not feel guilty about it.
31:24Making the connection with Marissa has made things a lot easier.
31:27I felt a little closed off, but being able to have someone who listens and it connects with me, like,
31:35on an emotional level, makes things a lot easier.
31:40I'm just grateful for you being so open and welcoming and accepting.
31:46Can I give you a hug?
31:48Yeah.
31:54With our first conversation, I really was just intrigued with the whole family dynamic.
32:00Yes.
32:00Why do we mask it with happiness and comedy?
32:04And, like, literally, it's so hard for me to talk about things like that.
32:07Like, that's really what Iris wanted to see out of me, that I could grow into speaking more about the
32:12issues.
32:13Why do you think you're opening up to me so...
32:15I mean, I feel like I am doing a lot of things she says I don't do.
32:19I'm opening up to people right away and not getting enough credit for it.
32:23I give you credit.
32:24I'm impressed.
32:26Really?
32:26Yeah.
32:27I feel so good when I actually get credit for things that I'm trying to do.
32:31Usually, it's just negative reinforcement, which is going to make me not want to open up in the end.
32:37So just having Juicy give me that reassurance that she is listening to me was really amazing.
32:42Best date I could have asked for.
32:44Let's get out of here.
32:45Plenty more to come.
32:46Oh.
32:46Is that a promise?
32:48When the love ends.
32:51When the love ends.
32:54Tell me a little something about yourself with, you know, being in your past relationship.
32:59I feel like it's hard for me to get him to open up to me emotionally.
33:02And I feel like I've been really emotional with him.
33:05And when it's not balanced, it just feels like I'm being too much.
33:10I don't want to come off clingy or, like, needy in any way.
33:13I value your emotions.
33:15Like, I don't ever want you to feel like you can't be yourself, in a sense.
33:19Because I just feel like you're kind of caged.
33:22Yeah.
33:23And you should be free.
33:25George, he's making me feel so at ease.
33:28It's scary to think that I could vibe so well with someone other than Luke.
33:31I felt like coming here, it was mainly to see if he would get tempted or cheat on me.
33:39But now I'm like, wow, I'm actually building a connection with someone here and it's really scary.
33:44He, like, embodies the qualities that I want in a future husband.
33:48It makes me feel guilty, knowing that I'm really connecting well with somebody.
33:53I am making connection with you.
33:56Yeah.
33:56And for me, I feel that.
33:58I feel it too.
34:00I feel it too.
34:22I feel it too.
34:26I feel...
34:27We back.
34:33Knowing how much I love Julian, I am very thrown by the connection I am making with Marisa.
34:39It makes me feel nervous, because I don't understand it.
34:44There was a moment, like, we're on the jet ski,
34:47and we had, like, a moment where we just chilled.
34:49And, like, he looked back at me.
34:51I don't know.
34:52Was it, like, one of those, like, I don't know.
34:54Like, he gave you the eyes on the jet ski?
34:55He did give me the eyes.
34:57What's up, everybody?
34:58Oh, hi, Marky.
35:00Look at you guys. You're all sunkissed.
35:02Oh, yeah, we are. Mwah.
35:03Well, listen, I really just want to drop by really quickly.
35:06Wanted to let you guys know that tonight,
35:10will be your very first bonfire.
35:12Ooh!
35:13Here we go.
35:14Ooh!
35:16Surprise.
35:16I see what y'all ladies are doing.
35:18This is what we've been waiting for.
35:19Okay.
35:20I'll see you soon.
35:20Ladies, nice to see you.
35:22All right, goodbye.
35:23Thank you, Mark.
35:23Ooh!
35:24Whoa!
35:26There's a lot of emotions running really high right now.
35:29Bonfires are super powerful.
35:31They really have the potential to make or break our relationship.
35:35You know, a lot is riding on these.
35:37Love y'all.
35:38Love y'all.
36:02Walk into Bonfire, the worst-case scenario would be me seeing Julian be intimate with Tommy,
36:10Tony, whatever his name is, or her saying something
36:15that she hasn't felt that she could say with me.
36:18I'm scared about the unknown.
36:23What's up, guys?
36:24I'm great, how are you, Mark?
36:25I'm good, I'm glad to see you.
36:27Likewise.
36:28Make yourself comfortable.
36:32All right.
36:38Gentlemen, welcome to your first bonfire.
36:41So this is where I get a chance to meet with you.
36:43We get to discuss your experience here on the island.
36:46It's also the only place where you'll
36:48get a glimpse of how your girlfriends
36:50are adapting to single life.
36:53Yeah.
36:54So here's how this works, guys.
36:56Each time you're at a bonfire, you're
36:59going to watch a clip of your girlfriend's experience
37:01on the island.
37:03I understand it can be difficult to watch,
37:05but hopefully it can provide the perspective
37:09that you're searching for in your relationship.
37:13So, are you guys ready?
37:15Yes, sir.
37:16Yes, sir.
37:17Let's do it.
37:17All right, very good.
37:19Luke, let's start with you.
37:22You ready?
37:23We are ready.
37:25The anticipation.
37:25We, the royal we.
37:26The anticipation is literally killing me.
37:28We're OK.
37:29Take a look.
37:32I'm texting girls from his past, and it's made me
37:35really uncomfortable.
37:36Oh, no.
37:37And it's kind of been, like, a thing that keeps happening.
37:41Like, we'll stop for, like, a few months,
37:42and then we'll, like, catch it again.
37:44So it makes me feel, like, insecure.
37:50OK, what did you hear?
37:52I hear the same problem.
37:55She believes that I'm not trustworthy,
37:59and I can go out and text other girls behind her back,
38:02girls that I've even hooked up with in the past.
38:05And I have to look back in on myself and say,
38:09why do I text the girls?
38:11When you love someone as much as you love your own family,
38:14when you love someone as much as a five-year relationship,
38:17it's just so much more frustrating when you
38:20don't feel like you're being hurt.
38:22I really want to work on getting it from my own self.
38:25And, you know, I have goals.
38:27I have little check boxes that I check off,
38:30and that's the only good feeling I get.
38:33Everything you're saying, I hear.
38:35And what I'm hearing is a young man
38:37who's just begging someone to say,
38:40I see you.
38:41You're doing great.
38:42I'm proud of you.
38:43You're a good guy.
38:45Yeah, and I mean...
38:47How does it make you feel when you hear me say that to you?
38:50I'm already tearing up.
38:52I'll be so rock solid with very traumatic things
38:56that'll happen that aren't related to this,
38:58and they don't faze me.
38:59And it's just this subject.
39:02You're screaming to the world,
39:03I want to hear these things.
39:04But you're not hearing from the people
39:06you want to hear them from.
39:07So you text somebody else.
39:09See, when you make a little bit of a shift
39:11about who you're being,
39:12then those people who aren't paying attention to you
39:14we'll see you.
39:16But you're going to have to see you first.
39:18We're going to work on it.
39:20It's all we can do.
39:21Okay.
39:22Edgar, your turn.
39:25Here we go.
39:27This one actually is my promise ring with Edgar.
39:31Okay.
39:32Which I really haven't thought about until just this moment.
39:35Like, I don't know if I will continue wearing the promise ring.
39:40Like, what do I...
39:41What do I do?
39:43What do I do?
39:44Do I...
39:45What do I do?
39:45I mean...
39:46I don't think I have a reason to take it off yet.
39:49Not yet.
39:58What'd you see?
40:15There's no rush.
40:19I'm holding the ring that she gave me.
40:24It hurts.
40:32Um...
40:33It sounds like the ring doesn't mean anything to her anymore.
40:40And it meant a lot to you.
40:43It meant the world to me, Mark.
40:51I don't want to hear that she doesn't want the ring anymore.
40:54I don't...
40:56Which, by the way, isn't what she said.
40:58But that's what you heard.
40:59That's what I heard, yeah.
41:00And that's all that matters, because that's what we're exploring.
41:03Yeah.
41:05What is hurting you?
41:07You know, not too long ago, I found out that she was texting her ex for several months.
41:20Explicit messages between the two.
41:22Oh, okay.
41:24You know, it feels like I don't know her.
41:31You know, it feels like she says one thing to me, and there's something else going on inside her head.
41:35It feels like she's not being honest with me anymore.
41:37Because, I mean, it was all the text messages that I didn't know about for months.
41:41And through all those months, I was trying to work towards our relationship.
41:45And I remember what I had done.
41:52And, you know, she says, it didn't take away from our relationship and the love that we had.
41:56But I just don't understand how you can do that and balance those two lives and still look me in
42:00the eye and tell me that you love me.
42:05I just don't believe it.
42:07I just don't believe it.
42:14I'm a littleMs, a friend of mine, and I don't believe it.
42:14So that's something that I can do.
42:14So did you think?
