TVTranscript
00:23I think human nature is to be tempted.
00:26I think we are born into a world full of temptation.
00:30I'm coming into this knowing that I'm deciding to be tempted but to not give in.
00:36I love you.
00:37I want to be with you.
00:39I hope that we get through this.
00:53This is a perfect situation to drop him in and see if I could trust him because that's
00:57been my biggest issue.
00:58Outside perspective, this seems nuts and crazy and people are probably wondering what the
01:04hell we're doing and I feel the same way.
01:37It's the greatest thing that's ever happened to me and if I truly need to learn how to
01:40control my sexual desires and learn how to be more emotionally connected, then I need
01:44to show that.
01:51It feels like we're at such a pivotal point in our relationship.
01:54Three and a half years in, if you don't take the next step, then you're going backwards.
01:57As a couple, you want to go forward.
01:58If I had it my way, I would already be engaged.
02:01In my heart, that's how I feel and I want him to feel that too.
02:05I haven't made that type of commitment to anybody before.
02:08I haven't even had a relationship longer than three months prior to this.
02:11So, I need to feel sure in myself to ultimately make that commitment and decision.
02:21I'm scared shitless to leave Tyler on his own with 12 single girls that are going to try
02:27and pursue him.
02:28I have felt for so long that he is the one, but we've just met a lot of resistance along
02:34the way.
02:34And this is our Hail Mary.
02:36I know there's going to be guys there that check her box financially or looks wise and
02:40all that, but I am confident coming into this that our love, you know, is strong enough
02:45to get us through this.
02:59Oh, yeah, here we go.
03:01We are on Temptation Island.
03:04That's crazy.
03:05Hey, look.
03:06Hey.
03:06I've been waiting.
03:07You made it.
03:08Wow.
03:09It's about to end time.
03:11It just got real, didn't it?
03:12Wow.
03:12Welcome, you guys.
03:14You all chose to come to Temptation Island because you're obviously in loving relationships,
03:20but like all relationships, you find yourselves at a crossroads.
03:25Absolutely.
03:26So, here's what you've signed up for.
03:28You'll move into two separate villas, men in one, women in another.
03:33Each villa will have 12 attractive singles.
03:36You'll live with and date those singles, and along the way, we'll meet for bonfires,
03:41where I'll show you clips of what your partner's experience has been.
03:45This journey is meant to give you answers to the questions that you brought to the island.
03:50What I usually tell people is that you're going to get answers to questions you didn't
03:54know you had.
03:55But ultimately, there's really only one question that matters here, right?
03:59Are you truly meant to be together?
04:02Mm-hmm.
04:04Or not?
04:09Are you ready to put your relationships to the ultimate test?
04:13Let's do it.
04:13Absolutely.
04:14We're ready.
04:15We'll see.
04:15You ready?
04:22So, I'm going to turn my focus on you guys right now.
04:24Hey, Mark.
04:25Hi, Grant.
04:26Ashley.
04:26Give me a little taste of you guys.
04:28Before I met him, I was in a different place in my life, and it wasn't that fun.
04:33It wasn't that exciting and adventurous.
04:34And he just came in at a good time and was exactly what I was looking for.
04:38And we just have a really fun life together.
04:42I love that fun as a part of who you are as a couple.
04:44Yeah.
04:45What's going on in your relationship that made you think that you wanted to come here?
04:49Uh, so we have a lot of trust issues.
04:51Uh, we've been dating for about a year and a half.
04:54Right.
04:54About a month into officially dating, he went and cheated on me behind my back.
04:59I was leaving in a week for Grace when I got a DM from a girl saying she had hooked
05:05up with Grant.
05:06This is after a month of you guys deciding to be exclusive?
05:08Yeah.
05:09Yeah, that was within that first month.
05:10Yeah.
05:11I knew where I had messed up.
05:12I chased her across the world to Greece.
05:15I surprised her because there was no way I was letting Ashley go.
05:20But I think over time, it's just built up into this huge mess of mistrust and resentment.
05:28And I think if we can get through this, maybe it'll clear that up.
05:36I want to let go of the resentment.
05:38I don't want to live my life like this.
05:40I want to be happy.
05:40I want to be carefree and I want to know if we can get back there.
05:45This is going to be the most temptation that I've ever felt.
05:49And it'd be nice to see I could take it with an intention that I'm setting now.
05:55Like, can I keep my word to myself, to my daughter, to her?
05:59You know?
05:59You have a daughter as well.
06:01I do.
06:02You got a lot of eyes on you, huh?
06:03I have a lot of eyes on me.
06:05Yeah.
06:07Thanks, you guys.
06:07Thanks for being so honest.
06:08I appreciate you.
06:10Thanks.
06:12Alexa, tell me about you guys.
06:14Where'd you meet?
06:14He was my gym crush.
06:16I would stare at him from across the room.
06:17I would do legs, even though it was an arm day, just to be near him.
06:20I was bench pressing in front of her a little bit more than I normally would.
06:24And I dropped the barbell straight onto my chest.
06:27275 pounds.
06:28I tore my rib cartilage.
06:30Of course.
06:30Went off in the ambulance, everything.
06:32Took six weeks to come back.
06:34The first day I got back, I'd introduced myself and I told her that I was distracted that day by
06:38her.
06:39And that's why I dropped it on myself.
06:41I love the meet cute.
06:42It's about as good as it gets.
06:44What do you hope to get out of this, Alexa?
06:46So we're kind of hitting that point in our relationship where it's almost like plateauing.
06:51We've been together for three and a half years and we've lived in three cities in three and a half
06:55years.
06:56And he's come with me every single time.
06:58Wow.
06:58We pack up in my little Camry and our cat and we go on the road.
07:02My understanding is you're a labor and delivery nurse and you're a travel nurse.
07:06Yeah.
07:07Yeah.
07:08It's like doing God's work.
07:09Exactly.
07:10I'm a stork, they say.
07:13That's a challenge for you, Lino, I would imagine.
07:15Do you have career aspirations that this is in the way of a little bit?
07:19Yeah.
07:20You know, uprooting your life every year or even less than a year and moving to a whole new zip
07:24code, it's difficult.
07:26You know, me interviewing, looking for new positions, trying to further myself, Alexa working hard on a daily basis.
07:33It's a lot.
07:33It takes a toll.
07:35Things just, you know, they start to boil up.
07:37And we were going through a difficult patch, fighting a lot and looking for what's next.
07:42Okay.
07:42I get that.
07:44I know I'm ready to take the next step of engagement and I really want to be married to Lino.
07:50I've been married before.
07:52You have?
07:52I was 21 and I was only married for a year.
07:55I see.
07:56But I was with that person since I was 15.
07:58It was your first love?
07:59My first love.
08:00Very young.
08:00And now I'm Lino's first love.
08:02When it comes to marriages, not everybody wants marriage.
08:05Is that something you want, Lino?
08:07It is something I want.
08:08Okay.
08:08I do see a future with her, but obviously I'm nervous.
08:12The beginning of our relationship was rocky.
08:14Alexis said that we were exclusive.
08:16She was exclusive with two guys at the time.
08:19And I still have some of that resentment and I feel sometimes that I'm the second choice,
08:23whether it be from the previous marriage or in that situation.
08:26He's not the second choice in my mind, but I think he has trouble believing it in his heart.
08:31I'm working through it.
08:32Working through it.
08:33Okay.
08:33I can buy that.
08:34Yeah.
08:35Good start.
08:36Okay, Brianna and Shantae, I'm excited to get to know you guys.
08:40Yeah.
08:40Hello, hello.
08:40Tell me a little bit about your love story.
08:42How'd you find one another?
08:43We had a mutual friend at church who said, you know, Shantae's looking for some financial
08:48advice.
08:49So I was like, great.
08:50That's my job.
08:51And somehow she ended up in my bedroom that night.
08:55Okay.
08:55So I'm good, you know, from the finance to the, you know, smooth criminal, smooth criminal.
09:03You're a closer.
09:04Yeah.
09:06He was just so easy to talk to, just laughing, joking.
09:09So he made it easy.
09:11So what's the problem?
09:14Uh, I'm a little bit of a flirt.
09:16Oh, maybe a lot of it of a flirt.
09:18A lot of it.
09:19Yeah.
09:19And I think I'm just at the point now where I want to show her that I can stop being
09:24so flirtatious.
09:25I think I'm just ready to take our relationship serious.
09:27And that's why we're here, to test that.
09:29At the beginning, were you not taking the relationship so seriously?
09:33Yeah.
09:33So there was a time at the beginning of our relationship where I chose another woman over
09:37her.
09:38Um, and then...
09:39So you broke up this.
09:40Mm-hmm.
09:41And then I realized the grass isn't greener on the other side.
09:45Shantae, were you thinking you may have met the one?
09:47Yeah.
09:47My next relationship, I knew I wanted my person to be, like, my best friend.
09:52Yeah.
09:52And I found that in him.
09:54And then when he kind of took that step, I was like, oh.
09:56You guys were able to get past that.
09:59Um, what are the issues today?
10:02Um, so for me, it's kind of the final test.
10:05Um, showing her that I'm ready to stop being the little...
10:10Flirty.
10:11Flirty.
10:12Flirty boy.
10:13I've had multiple women in my life before.
10:16I've had threesomes.
10:17I've done it all.
10:18Um, and I enjoy that side.
10:20I've lived a very...
10:21Slow your roll a second.
10:23Multiple women in your life and apparently at the same time.
10:27Yeah.
10:27Shantae, are you on that page?
10:30That's not my cup of tea.
10:32Okay.
10:32And he knows that.
10:33And I think that at first was a struggle for him just because he is a really sexual person.
10:39One of the things he wants me to work on is just being more, like, sexual towards him.
10:45And initiating things a little bit more on his end, so.
10:49Okay.
10:50Yeah.
10:50Some challenges there.
10:52Yeah.
10:52I have a lot of respect for a lot of the girlfriends that he has, like his friends.
10:58But then on the other side of it, there are times where it's kind of like, are you doing too
11:02much?
11:03Are you saying too much?
11:04Like, I think you could tone it down a little.
11:06And I think this will be a really big test to see how are you really gaining those friendships?
11:11What line and boundary are you setting for yourself?
11:13You can take your relationship and level up.
11:15What does that look like to you, Breon?
11:16Moving in together.
11:18Saying, hey, Shantae, I'm taking you serious.
11:20I'm ready to build on this.
11:22I'm ready to do this together.
11:23How does that feel hearing that, Shantae?
11:25It feels great.
11:26Yeah.
11:26That feels great?
11:27Just knowing that he's, like, taking it seriously.
11:29I just think it'll be a really exciting moment to just really, like, take that step.
11:34As you're sitting together, I could see you got a little emotional.
11:36Yeah.
11:37Can you tell me what that's about?
11:38What you're feeling?
11:39I think it's more of an excitement.
11:40Like, ooh, like, that really could happen.
11:42So it's kind of like a shock.
11:45And it's just, that's a lot to take, you know?
11:47Just a big step to take, especially in this experience.
11:51Just really putting that test forward is, it's a little scary.
11:56But I'm hopeful for what's to come.
11:59This is an inexact process.
12:01And you're already doing so much better than I even anticipated.
12:05Okay.
12:07Taylor Tyler.
12:07Hi, guys.
12:09Hi.
12:10Welcome.
12:11Tell me about you.
12:11We met at my job.
12:13I bartended in downtown Nashville.
12:16My best friend was friends with him at the time and his ex-wife now.
12:21Um, and they came in to visit me on a Saturday night.
12:24First time you saw Taylor, she was behind the bar and you were with your now ex-wife?
12:28Correct, yes.
12:29How much time before you and Taylor started to date?
12:32It took about four months after my separation before we started getting physical.
12:37And I was still married legally at the time.
12:40Not a lot of grass grew between the two relationships.
12:44No.
12:44Yeah, zero grass.
12:45Zero grass.
12:46It was dirt.
12:47Zero grass.
12:48Sounds like you guys have undeniable chemistry.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Fire is good.
12:53It doesn't get better.
12:55Yeah.
12:55Okay.
12:55In my opinion.
12:56Okay.
12:57Well, what brought you here?
12:59So, once I got my masters, I bought my house.
13:02He decided to walk away from his job and live an adventurous lifestyle.
13:07At that time, I was living in a high-rise apartment.
13:10I had a sports car.
13:12You know, I had a nice medical sales job.
13:14But now I have had job opportunities where I have been able to make a lot of money with
13:18modeling.
13:19And so I think it makes her a little bit uncomfortable that I'm getting these jobs, these one-off jobs
13:24that are allowing me to push off, you know, real work, I guess you could say longer and
13:28longer.
13:28But I feel like I'm finding myself in this new, this new season and it's just not giving her
13:35the comfort she's looking for.
13:36I don't feel safe anymore.
13:38I don't feel secure anymore.
13:39And he also has some infidelity in there as well.
13:44Who wants to fill me in on that one?
13:46So, about a month into us being exclusive and officially dating, we were arguing quite
13:53a bit.
13:54I was, I would say, a little bit more emotionally needy at the time, just getting out of my life
13:59situation.
14:00And someone approached me.
14:01I've seen them before at the gym.
14:03And we started to hit it off.
14:06And, you know, I did end up falling into temptation and ended up kissing her.
14:11How did it make you feel, Taylor?
14:13Terrible.
14:14I thought he was the one person in my life that would never do me wrong.
14:17Every single relationship I've had previously has gone that way.
14:22And I've seen that trait in them.
14:24They're very flirtatious.
14:25Or, you know, I could just pick it up.
14:27I've bartended for seven years.
14:29I can spot it out before it even happens.
14:31So, I felt like I would never, ever have to experience that with him.
14:36Because that's how safe he made me feel.
14:38And he made me feel like I'm never going to find anybody that'll do right by me.
14:43Because I thought he was the one person.
14:45What are you hoping happens here?
14:48Right after my separation, I got a lot of advice from my family and friends to take some time for
14:55myself, but also to date.
14:57Because they believed, obviously, that marriage was not right for me and that person wasn't right for me.
15:02And we did get married young.
15:04I was 18 and she was 19 at the time.
15:06But I really didn't realize I had a lot of stuff in the harbor, a lot of grieving that I
15:12didn't go through.
15:13Because I didn't have that grass, you know, that time for the grass to grow.
15:17So, I'm here to figure out a little bit of myself, but also to get the privilege to date.
15:23And I'm lucky to have this experience for her to loosen the reins and let me adventure a little bit.
15:29Realize the toll it's taking on her.
15:31And, you know, do I need to stand up and say, okay, you know, for the betterment of both of
15:36us, do we need to walk away or keep fighting?
15:40I think you've got a lot to work on and you're on the right track.
15:44And I appreciate you sharing it.
15:46I always ask the question about rules.
15:48I'm going to ask you guys the same thing, but did you make some boundaries and rules here, you guys?
15:52Rules are not to touch anyone.
15:54Not to touch anyone?
15:55Act like we're still dating.
15:56Yeah.
15:57No physicality.
15:58At all?
15:59We're not really here.
16:00Well, I'll speak for myself.
16:02I'm not really here to explore physically.
16:04I'm here to learn and explore emotionally.
16:08You're both on the same page with that?
16:10Yeah.
16:10I don't have any need for physicality.
16:12I've dated.
16:13I've explored.
16:15I got the t-shirt and the souvenirs to prove it.
16:17So, I'm good.
16:18Yeah, she knows she's good.
16:19Brionne, Chante, any physical stuff allowed?
16:22No.
16:22None at all.
16:23None at all.
16:23And I like to have sex.
16:24So, there's the two.
16:26But with me, not with me.
16:28But yeah, with her.
16:29Relax.
16:29With her.
16:30All right, you two.
16:32Any rules?
16:33No.
16:34We actually didn't make any rules.
16:35We came to a decision that it would be better to fully immerse ourselves.
16:39I'm not the type of person to put restrictions on someone else.
16:43And Alexa believes that if you're told to do something, you're probably gonna wanna do
16:46Reverse psychology.
16:48Don't touch the cookie jar, you touch the cookie jar.
16:50Okay.
16:52I respect your rules, but I also chuckle when I ask it because I think we make rules to make
16:59ourselves feel better today, but we'll see how things hold up.
17:07Okay.
17:08Are you ready?
17:10We're ready.
17:11Let's do it.
17:12I'm ready, Mark.
17:14I'm ready.
17:14I'm ready.
17:15I'm ready.
17:16Because here we go.
17:18Time to meet tempters and the tempteresses you'll be sharing the island with.
17:27We're gonna start with the ladies.
17:29Bring them out.
17:29Bring them out.
17:35Here they come.
17:40Long legs, gray hips, faces, smiles, teeth, hair.
17:44I mean, this is literally the ultimate test.
17:50She's a model for sure.
17:52Hi.
17:53I don't know why I've always loved blondes.
17:56This is gonna be hard.
18:01Oh, there's a few of them catching my eye.
18:03I can already tell it might be some trouble in the house.
18:05A little trouble in paradise.
18:10We're not in Kansas anymore.
18:22Oh, my God.
18:30Look at me.
18:46Look at you.
18:47Look at you.
18:48Look at me.
18:50Look at me.
18:52Look at me.
18:55She's pretty.
18:56Which?
18:57Number six.
18:57She doesn't want to be.
18:59I know what I have.
19:01I know what I have to.
19:05What are you thinking, Ashley?
19:07They're all beautiful.
19:08If you guys can take them, you can have them.
19:12Amen.
19:14Let's just hope you can't.
19:17Oh, God.
19:18I don't care how fat their ass is.
19:22That's him to me.
19:24I'm already annoyed.
19:25Who's your favorite baby?
19:27Picnic table drills, pretty insane.
19:30You and Lobo Pete.
19:32I can tell her hair is fake, too.
19:33So, have fun with that.
19:35So, should we bring out the gentlemen, ladies?
19:38Yeah.
19:39No, relax.
19:40Don't say yeah.
19:41Don't say yeah.
19:43Bring them out.
19:44Bring them out.
19:45I mean, you can leave them back there if you want.
19:46Fasten your seat belts.
19:47Let's meet the guys.
19:49Okay.
19:51Oh, here we go.
19:57Oh, my gosh.
20:05I like a pretty boy chiseled face.
20:09If you have green eyes, I feel like that's a cop out.
20:10Like, you're just automatically attractive.
20:15It's nuts.
20:16Grant is putting on a front that he's not threatened,
20:19but he's inching a little closer to me.
20:21I'm gonna love what I can do.
20:26Let me soak this in.
20:35Shit.
20:37They all have great bodies, so it kind of just builds up
20:40knowing that I really had to live with all these guys.
20:53Are you in trouble?
20:58You're gonna love me.
21:00You're gonna love me.
21:03You're gonna love me.
21:04You're gonna love me.
21:05You're gonna love what I can do.
21:09This is wild.
21:12What are you thinking, Alexa?
21:14There's a whole lot of pecs in front of me.
21:16Good luck to y'all.
21:19She's used to that at home, so it's only fitting.
21:22I'm right.
21:22I can do it, too. Don't worry.
21:24Okay, couples, standing in front of you are 24 eligible singles.
21:30They are on this island for one reason.
21:34To tempt you.
21:39They're here to make connections with you.
21:41Physically, emotionally, intellectually, anything is possible here, including true and lasting love.
21:50Maybe this is what gets you to find it with each other.
21:54Or maybe you find it with one of these people.
21:59First impressions are everything, and now's their chance to individually make a first impression on you.
22:06So each one of them is going to introduce themselves.
22:09Then they're going to walk over to the one of you that they're most attracted to and give you a
22:14bracelet.
22:15That's nice.
22:16To let you know that they're kind of feeling you.
22:19Oh, no.
22:19Okay, spicy.
22:22Here you go.
22:23Let's do this.
22:24Mia.
22:30Fellas, future ex-girlfriends, my name is Mia.
22:34I'm studying to be a dentist, and I can't wait to be all up in your man's mouth.
22:39Holy shit.
22:40First, I open up your mind.
22:42Oh, boy.
22:43Hi, Mia.
22:43Nice to meet you.
22:44And then you can open up my legs.
22:46I see class wasn't a requirement.
22:50Sorry, Mom.
22:52My name's Natalie, and if you like it from the front, you're going to love it from the other side.
22:57I definitely have a lot of assets.
23:00Oh.
23:01Where's the shots?
23:02Jesus Christ.
23:03I'm Alex.
23:04I used to be a cheerleader, so I'm not afraid to be tossed around.
23:08What's the route?
23:09Watch me walk.
23:10My guilty pleasure is sucking dick.
23:13What's going on?
23:15Two in a row?
23:16Temptation Island.
23:18It's going to be a long three weeks.
23:19You're strong.
23:20Kidding, of course.
23:21He's in trouble, dude.
23:24I am ready for a relationship.
23:26I want to get married.
23:27She wears a lot of rings, but, like, wears the rock.
23:29We need the rock.
23:30I love it.
23:32I'm Olivia.
23:33I know what I want, and it's sitting right in front of me.
23:36This is for you.
23:42He's not making it a date.
23:45Take it easy over there, threesomes.
23:47Oh.
23:47Fuck me.
23:49I can listen for you.
23:52Hi.
23:53I just want to say you're welcome.
23:55Oh, thank you, but fake.
23:57Oh.
23:59I hope Thanksgiving is your favorite holiday, because I'll be serving all the yams.
24:05Oh, my goodness.
24:07You can tell.
24:09It's Temptation Island, after all.
24:11See you in the house.
24:13I'll see you later.
24:15Oh, I ain't going to lie.
24:17My weakness is the booty.
24:19It's going to be a lot of prayer, right?
24:22It's disrespectful.
24:23That's fine.
24:26Let's take a moment to give thanks.
24:29That's her favorite holiday.
24:31It is my favorite.
24:32I'm Nikki.
24:33I used to work with Rocket Fuel, so I can't wait to blow you...
24:40...out of this world.
24:42...to add to your collection.
24:44Don't worry.
24:44I think I got the blowing covered.
24:46Oh, jeez, Ashley.
24:48You.
24:48Oh, shoot.
24:50I'm looking forward to finding a real, genuine connection.
24:54I haven't had that in a really long time.
24:56Bye.
24:58I'm a really good girlfriend.
25:00I'm a super happy and positive person.
25:02Super loyal.
25:03I've never cheated before.
25:04Exactly what you're looking for right here.
25:07There's no need to look anywhere else.
25:09Thank you, dear.
25:10Did you say thank you, dear?
25:12Oh.
25:14This whole thing is a trap.
25:17Just starting to get a grip on what I actually signed up for.
25:23All right, ladies.
25:24Are you ready to get from the man?
25:26Here we go.
25:28Ladies, I'm Yemen.
25:29I'm hard chocolate on the outside,
25:31but I'm soft, sweet chocolate fondue on the inside.
25:36That's pretty good.
25:37I like that one.
25:38Oh, my gosh.
25:38A little chocolate ganache.
25:40I'm just here to give them what they've been missing.
25:42Respectfully.
25:44Respectfully.
25:45Respect, respect, respect.
25:47I'm not the bad guy.
25:49My name's Chris.
25:50I'm a personal trainer,
25:51and I would love to stretch you ladies out.
25:54She's already stretched.
25:56Hey!
25:56Oh, no!
25:57Oh, whoa.
26:03I'm an athlete, barber, and I work construction.
26:06I'm damn good with my hands,
26:08and I'm going to fill all the holes your man can.
26:10That was pretty good.
26:11Can't hate on it.
26:13My name's Hashim.
26:14I'm a dual sport Princeton grad.
26:16People usually call me the dream,
26:17but fellas, I'm your worst nightmare.
26:20Oh, no.
26:21Yeah!
26:23Princeton.
26:24A lot of hair, by the way.
26:25I got two degrees.
26:27Princeton's scaring me.
26:28You're still here and single.
26:30I'm Quentin.
26:31I'm here to win one of your hearts,
26:32and fellas, break one of yours.
26:34He's breaking my heart.
26:36Thank you, Quentin.
26:38I'm Giovanni, and I speak five languages.
26:40English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese,
26:42and most important of all, the language of love.
26:47Bellissimo.
26:48Hey, ladies.
26:49My name is Max.
26:50I'm a project manager.
26:51I'm here to lay down more than just blueprints.
26:57My line of work,
26:58building a strong foundation is critical,
27:00and I hope to build a strong connection
27:02with you women here on the island.
27:03How you doing?
27:04I have a candy company.
27:06If you're lucky,
27:06I might just let you lick my lollipop.
27:08I see what I'm over there.
27:09I'm a former professional basketball player,
27:11but I might just come out of retirement
27:13to score with your chick.
27:18Oh, and he missed.
27:20You have a great smile.
27:21Appreciate you.
27:26May I?
27:27Oh.
27:28Wow.
27:29I feel bad for the boyfriends.
27:31Our commodity.
27:32You know, these wrists are getting heavy.
27:34You're separating,
27:34you're putting them with me.
27:36Might have messed up bringing a girl here, man.
27:37Thanks.
27:38Damn.
27:39Ooh.
27:39I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, really.
27:41I'm gonna go with that.
27:44Arm heavy, Ashley.
27:46How you feeling, sweetie?
27:47How many you got?
27:49Ashley, how you feeling?
27:51I certainly wasn't expecting six.
27:53It's a nice confidence boost.
27:55Yeah.
27:56Grant, how does that make you feel?
27:58I mean, I'm proud.
27:59I'm not scared.
28:02Okay.
28:02I guess I should be scared.
28:03I don't know.
28:06Ladies, thank you.
28:07Gentlemen, well done.
28:08I think you've all done enough tempting for now.
28:11Our couples will catch up with you all soon.
28:14Thanks, Mark.
28:16Later, Mark.
28:17See you guys.
28:18Take a breath now.
28:19Bye.
28:19See you later.
28:23Wow.
28:24I'm not, I'm not that threatened.
28:26Okay, good for you.
28:28So glad.
28:29Couples, it's been quite a day already.
28:32And I know your mind's probably a little overwhelmed right now.
28:35So I'd like you to take some time right now
28:38and find a place privately, each couple, to reconnect.
28:42Because in a moment, I'm gonna come back
28:44and the journey's really gonna begin.
28:46You're gonna move into your separate villas
28:48and begin your life as singles.
28:53Oh.
29:02So, use this time to say what you need to say,
29:04but more importantly, don't leave anything unsaid.
29:07Approach it as though there's a possibility
29:09that you won't have this moment again.
29:12For some of you, that may be true.
29:16Use the time wisely.
29:17I'll be right back.
29:19Shaken and cold.
29:22Scared to the bones.
29:25Don't wanna be alone.
29:35You trust me?
29:37I do.
29:39It would be good for us.
29:41Yeah.
29:41Come back strong.
29:43It's time to say goodbye.
29:46I'll come back to you.
29:48I love you.
29:49I love you.
29:52I'm really gonna miss it.
29:57It's definitely scary to feel these feelings.
29:59I mean, giving into this experience
30:01is truly what's gonna give me that clarity.
30:04If I had it before, we'd already be engaged,
30:06but I'm kind of the one holding it up.
30:09All our history's hazy
30:13Are we in too deep to heal?
30:19It's super scary to think it could be
30:21a lot of lasts between me and Grant,
30:24but I would love to leave the island with Grant.
30:27I am here willing to fight for my relationship.
30:32I'm nervous to see what you do.
30:35I mean, you don't think I'm nervous, too?
30:39You have six bracelets on your wrist right now.
30:42I feel like you leave, you go and do things,
30:44and, like, I always question it.
30:47Yeah, you question if I walk to the grocery store.
30:52There's hot people at the grocery store.
30:54There's a hot girl right in front of me.
30:56You remember that.
30:58I'm not gonna let you down.
30:59Before we're leaving here
31:05Stay strong, for real.
31:07Look at me.
31:08For real.
31:11They're gonna be all up on you.
31:13I'm putting at risk, like, the person that I love.
31:16Like, he's my best friend.
31:17I see a future and a husband in him,
31:19so I really just hope that we can make it through this.
31:22I love you.
31:23I love you.
31:24This is light work.
31:25This is the last goodbye
31:30You have a hug, please.
31:32Mm-hmm.
31:33It's okay.
31:35It's okay, baby.
31:38You okay?
31:43You still want to do this?
31:45Mm-hmm.
31:47You sure you seem kind of conflicted right now?
31:49I'm just tired of putting myself on the line.
31:51Like, I have with every relationship.
31:53I've been like, just prove it to me,
31:54and I'm doing the same thing with you.
31:56I'm like, prove it to me.
31:57I don't want somebody to have to prove something to me.
31:59Why can't I just be enough just the way that I am?
32:02You are, honey.
32:03You are not, or we wouldn't fucking be here right now.
32:06I'm just so fucking tired of feeling like I'm always in competition
32:10and just doing all these things,
32:11and it plays to my biggest fucking insecurities.
32:14The first thing you do is call a girl dear.
32:16Like, what the fuck, bro?
32:19It's so shitty.
32:20It's just really fucking shitty
32:22to have to continually deal with stuff
32:24and just not feel like you're enough.
32:27That is the last thing I want to make you feel.
32:35We both decided to come here,
32:37and I feel like now I'm in trouble for bringing you here.
32:47I feel like it's day one,
32:48and you're already kind of giving up a little bit,
32:51and we just got here.
32:53It's my last time going to see you
32:54for who knows how long, all right?
32:59I want to kiss you.
33:01I want to love on you.
33:03You know I love you, and I appreciate you.
33:06Maybe it is not our time.
33:10Maybe it is not our time, yeah.
33:13All right, couples, I know it's difficult,
33:15but I'm going to ask you to come join me over here.
33:18I'm just feeling a lot of weight from it all.
33:21I believe everything in life
33:23either comes from fear and love,
33:25and I love Tay,
33:27and that's why I'm so fearful
33:28that I might lose her
33:29because, you know,
33:31I don't want to lose everything that we've built
33:32over the past two and a half years.
33:36I know it's a lot.
33:38I know how hard that moment is for you,
33:40but this is goodbye.
33:50Ladies, this is where you live.
33:52Welcome home.
33:54Gentlemen, we have a beautiful villa for you as well.
33:57You'll spend tonight alone without your partner.
33:59This will give you a chance to reflect
34:01on everything that's happened so far,
34:03but I want you to keep in mind that tomorrow,
34:05you're going to have to select somebody
34:07to go on your first date with.
34:08After that, the singles will move in,
34:11and the journey will officially begin.
34:19I know it's weird to be single again.
34:22This is your first, first date in a long time.
34:25So tonight, think about that
34:27because you're going to have to make that choice.
34:42I love you.
34:44You're strong.
34:45I know right now,
34:49some of you may be thinking,
34:51what have I done?
34:53But I can tell you
34:54that you will all leave this island
34:56in a better place.
34:57I feel like I blew it,
34:59being so stone cold.
35:01Tyler has been the best love
35:03I've ever experienced,
35:04and you see how flawed it is.
35:06Whenever I get in super emotional situations,
35:09I just shut down.
35:11I disassociate.
35:13You know, I just feel like
35:14I did what I always do, so.
35:18We're here now.
35:19This is a choice you made,
35:21and we'll get through it together.
35:24Fellas, let's go find out
35:26where you're living, okay?
35:27Ladies, get some rest tonight,
35:29and I'll see you in the morning.
35:33I'm really scared to lose Alexa.
35:35I don't know how my life would be.
35:39Please, don't give up on me.
35:43Okay?
35:45Let me up, let me up, let me up, let me up.
35:47We need to get one of those.
35:51Oh, come here.
35:53This is hard.
36:03I've struggled through deeper waters.
36:06I've caught on my sisters, my brothers.
36:09I've taken so many steps forward.
36:11And a hundred more back.
36:14I'm feeling overwhelmed.
36:16When the guys left, like, it hit.
36:18Like, we're really doing this.
36:20We're really here.
36:21And I simply just can't stop crying.
36:24But I'm hoping I just get through this,
36:27and then hopefully start having some fun.
36:35I knew this was going to be hard, but still, like,
36:39doesn't take away from the fact that it's sad.
36:41I just hope it's worth it.
36:47I miss them already.
36:49I miss them so much.
36:51I've spent too long just trying to be perfect.
36:54You can't please everybody, not worth it.
36:56But sometimes you just gotta do what you stop comparing yourself,
37:00because you feel like a fool.
37:02Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
37:05If there's no pain, there's no growth.
37:07And I could just turn and go.
37:10But here's what I know.
37:12It's not the destination.
37:15It's all in the journey.
37:17Look out of location.
37:20Don't be in the family.
37:23It's not the destination.
37:25It's all in the journey.
37:28Say I haven't made it.
37:31Baby, don't worry.
37:33It's the journey.
37:35How are you guys feeling about this whole thing?
37:39We're about to ask these girls on dates.
37:40This is actually, like, my first, first date.
37:43Your first date.
37:44Like, first, like, yeah, let's get to know each other's date,
37:47because both my previous relationships,
37:49we were friends for months, you know, and years beforehand.
37:52So a little bit nervous.
37:54You're gonna pop your first date, Cherry.
37:56Yeah, I mean, honestly.
37:57What do you think Tay's gonna think?
38:00I think I might surprise her on who I pick for the first date.
38:04You know, when all the singles were lined up,
38:06she was like, oh, I already know, no, no, no.
38:08I was like, you don't know shit.
38:10In general, I'm nervous about dating,
38:12but there's a certain point where you have to,
38:17you know, to welcome new ideas and take risks,
38:20and I know Temptation Island is a bit of a risk for us,
38:23you know, and I am nervous for what she might find.
38:26I am nervous for what I might find,
38:29and I really do not want to hurt each other,
38:31and I want to respect our relationship,
38:32but I need answers.
38:34My guys!
38:35Marky!
38:36What's up?
38:37Good morning, good morning.
38:38Good morning, sir.
38:39This is already a good sign.
38:41You're still here.
38:42I was like, what is?
38:43We got a lot to do.
38:44Follow me.
38:45Let's head out here and then watch out.
38:46Do it.
38:46Cool, cool?
38:47Come with me.
38:48Today is definitely nerve-wracking.
38:50I think the first thing I go to
38:53is who Shantae is gonna pick,
38:55you know, and who catches her eye,
38:57and if that's someone that could potentially
38:59take her away from me.
39:00I gotta say, you look good.
39:02Thank you, Mark.
39:03Appreciate you.
39:03You do too, Mark.
39:04Well, you got four chairs there
39:06that could be for your date,
39:07but they're not.
39:09We have some surprise guests.
39:11Surprise guests?
39:13So let's bring them on right now.
39:19Oh, gosh.
39:23Honestly, I felt a lot of guilt
39:26from our last night together,
39:30but knowing I have to pick someone
39:31for a date very soon,
39:34it's a little intimidating.
39:35You know, I haven't gone on a first date
39:37in a long time,
39:39but I came here for a purpose,
39:41and I'm willing to see that through.
39:52How are you four?
39:54We're okay.
39:55We're hanging in there.
39:56Good as we can be.
39:57Yeah.
39:58Are you ready for what's next?
39:59No.
40:00As we will be.
40:02We can't do this.
40:04You're good, baby.
40:05You're strong.
40:05So today,
40:06you go on your first dates.
40:11The experience you asked to have,
40:13you're having,
40:13which is to be single again.
40:15I want to acknowledge the fact
40:16that while this is extreme,
40:17the people that you love
40:19have given each other this gift,
40:22right,
40:22in hopes that there's something greater
40:24that comes out of it.
40:25in a moment,
40:26you're going to pick
40:26who you want to go on
40:27that first date with.
40:32The more you open yourself up
40:33to the experience,
40:34even the uncomfortable parts,
40:36the more there is to gain,
40:38the more you get out of it.
40:39And that's the choice
40:40you have to make here.
40:42I think we should get to it.
40:43The suspense is killing me.
40:45Let's bring out the gentlemen
40:46who are living with you
40:47in your villa,
40:48and then we'll see
40:49who you pick
40:49for your dates.
40:51They're going to have
40:52their shirts off again?
41:02What's your heart?
41:11Hello.
41:11Good to see you.
41:12Good to see you, too.
41:15You look good, guys.
41:16Damn, they got small eggs.
41:18I can see them.
41:22Alexa, we're going
41:22to let you pick first.
41:23Oh, boy.
41:24You have to go first.
41:33Winton,
41:34you want to come on a date with me?
41:36Absolutely.
41:37Women tell me
41:37that I have beautiful eyes
41:39all the time.
41:40Sometimes I think
41:40that's the only reason
41:41they like me.
41:43But honestly,
41:44more importantly,
41:45I'm 36 years old.
41:46I'm at that point
41:47where I'm ready
41:48to settle down.
41:49You know,
41:49I want to start a family.
41:50And hopefully,
41:51on this island,
41:52I'll be able to find
41:52someone I can do that with.
41:56So, Taylor,
41:57you are next.
41:58Do you have an idea
41:59of what you want to do?
42:00Yes.
42:01She hops right out of her chair.
42:02Let me get out of the way.
42:03Go ahead, Taylor.
42:08Chris,
42:08will you go on a date with me?
42:09Of course.
42:10Okay, thank you.
42:13I feel like the woman
42:13will like me
42:15just because I'm a good listener.
42:16You know,
42:17they're on this island
42:17for a reason.
42:18You know,
42:18their other relationships
42:19aren't working
42:19or they don't know
42:20if it's going to be
42:20good for them or not.
42:22So, they can come
42:22talk to me about it
42:23and they can also see
42:24if I'm good for them.
42:25Just trying to be
42:25Littlespoon, man.
42:26That's it.
42:27Tyler,
42:28how do you feel
42:29about that choice?
42:30Well, Taylor
42:31pointed out Chris
42:32right away
42:33on the beach
42:34even though I didn't
42:35really appreciate
42:36his one-liner.
42:37My name's Chris.
42:38I'm a personal trainer
42:39and I would love
42:40to stretch you ladies out.
42:42You know.
42:44Okay.
42:46You're looking at me.
42:47I know.
42:47You know what time.
42:48I know.
42:49All right, Chate,
42:50it's your turn.
42:56Would you like
42:57to come on?
42:57Of course, of course.
43:01A lot of times
43:01when people see me,
43:02they definitely think
43:02I'm a fuckboy
43:03or something like that.
43:05Honestly,
43:05I think people
43:06are surprised
43:06at how soft-spoken
43:08and genuine that I am.
43:09Once they get to know me,
43:10I'm a big teddy bear,
43:11so I'm a big softie.
43:12I kind of like
43:12how you were
43:13stepping out of line
43:14before she even asked
43:15there, huh?
43:15She was like,
43:16it wasn't understood.
43:18I mean, she's gorgeous.
43:19I'm excited to definitely
43:20go on this date
43:20and get to know her
43:21a little more.
43:24You ready?
43:25I'm ready.
43:26Okay, let's see
43:27who you pick.
43:27Just one?
43:28Just one this time.
43:31But I like
43:31where you're headed.
43:34Come on now.
43:35Logan, will you
43:36go on a date with me?
43:37I'd love to go
43:38on a date with you.
43:40I'm 6'5".
43:42It's not too hard
43:43to stand out.
43:44Women love
43:44their tall, tall guys.
43:45They like someone
43:46who gets stuff
43:47from the top shelf,
43:48you know?
43:49Protect her.
43:50Shout out to the
43:51short kings.
43:51There's a time
43:52and a place for you,
43:54but this place
43:55probably isn't it.
43:57Logan,
43:58how are you feeling
43:58right now?
43:59Well,
44:00I did let her man
44:02know that it was
44:03a mistake bringing
44:04her on here.
44:04Man, I messed up
44:05bringing a girl here, man.
44:06Thanks.
44:07Damn.
44:09So,
44:10still early.
44:11We'll see how it goes,
44:12but,
44:13you know.
44:15There goes safety
44:16out of the window.
44:17Yep.
44:18Awesome.
44:18Confidence turned
44:19to arrogance.
44:19How are you feeling?
44:20I mean,
44:21I'm sure her arm
44:22was aching yesterday
44:23from all those bracelets.
44:24Yeah, that was a lot.
44:25That's something
44:26to take in.
44:27I had a hard time
44:27this morning
44:28dealing with everything,
44:29so seeing her
44:29pick someone
44:30is tough regardless,
44:32but we both came here
44:34knowing that we'd
44:34have to go on dates.
44:36I wish he wasn't
44:38so cocky about it,
44:39but, you know,
44:39what am I going to do?
44:41I have someone
44:42that I'm going to pick,
44:42too.
44:43Mm.
44:43Mm-hmm.
44:47God, this sucks.
44:50You're not getting
44:50these women
44:51outside of the show, bro.
44:52Relax.
44:53This is the highlight
44:53of his life.
44:55He's wearing
44:55an ugly comb, too.
44:57You didn't get picked
44:58today,
44:58just the first day.
44:59There are more
45:00dates to come.
45:01You guys can move
45:01on into the house now.
45:02I'll see you soon.
45:03Thanks, Mark.
45:04Come on, baby.
45:05See you.
45:07So we're halfway through.
45:09Gentlemen,
45:10you're up to bat.
45:11Let's bring out
45:12your house guests
45:14and see who gets
45:15to go on a first date
45:15with you guys.
45:16Mm-hmm.
45:17Mm-hmm.
45:18Mm-hmm.
45:19Mm-hmm.
45:21Mm-hmm.
45:21It's kind of surreal.
45:23It's like now it's
45:24coming down to just
45:25actually choosing
45:26one first date.
45:28And I think, um,
45:29some shit might fall apart.
45:31So, and I'm hoping
45:32it's not me.
45:34Hello.
45:34Welcome.
45:35Hi, Kay.
45:36Hi, how are you?
45:37Good, thank you.
45:38I'd like to be here.
45:39Welcome, you look great.
45:41Hi, good morning,
45:43good morning.
45:44It's almost like
45:45they look better
45:45with clothes now.
45:48We're gonna start
45:49with Lino.
45:50Ooh, me first?
45:51Yes, sir.
45:52All righty.
45:53Hmm.
45:59Eenie, meenie.
46:00Would you like
46:01to go on a date,
46:02Natalie?
46:02Yep, I would love to.
46:03I knew it.
46:06She's pretty.
46:07Which?
46:08Number six.
46:09She's also pretty.
46:10Yeah.
46:13I feel like
46:14I don't have to do much
46:14to get a guy's attention.
46:16It doesn't really matter
46:16where I go,
46:17if I'm out at a bar,
46:18if it's my soon-to-be
46:19boyfriend or whoever.
46:20I am definitely used to
46:22guys falling head over heels
46:23for me.
46:24Please don't break my heart.
46:27All right, Tyler.
46:29I'm ready.
46:30You ready?
46:30I'm ready.
46:31Okay.
46:31Go, brother.
46:36Courtney,
46:37would you please come with me?
46:39Oh!
46:40Mm-hmm.
46:40Okay.
46:43Taylor, who'd you think
46:44that he was gonna pick?
46:45Yellow dress.
46:47That is his type to a T.
46:48That's his type?
46:49Either blonde one,
46:50either the one in the jean shorts
46:52or the yellow dress.
46:53Is it interesting to you
46:54that he didn't choose
46:55either of the girls
46:56you thought he would go to?
46:58To be honest,
46:58I'm really proud of him.
47:00I mean,
47:00I think Courtney's beautiful
47:01and I want him to push himself
47:03and find what he loves.
47:05I love that man so much
47:06and I want that for him.
47:08I want him to know
47:09that I'm his person
47:10without a shadow of a doubt
47:11at the end.
47:12That's a beautiful answer.
47:13It's very mature.
47:16All right, Brion?
47:18It's me.
47:19Let's go, big dog.
47:19Let's go.
47:21Well, catch me
47:22if I run up on the stage
47:23and everything's nice.
47:24Well, I'm right behind you.
47:27Ladies, see you.
47:30Maya.
47:31Aw.
47:33I'm so excited.
47:34I feel like I'm a catch
47:35because I've worked
47:36really hard on myself
47:37and I feel like
47:38I'm ready for a relationship.
47:39I want a relationship.
47:41I'm that girly.
47:42Sorry to be corny.
47:49I like the chorus of awe.
47:53She's one of those, like,
47:54natural girls.
47:55You know, like,
47:57doesn't really do it.
47:58It's giving.
48:00All right.
48:01Grant, let's do this.
48:03Bring us home.
48:08Olivia?
48:09Yeah.
48:10I'm Olivia.
48:11I know what I want
48:12and it's sitting
48:13right in front of me.
48:14This is for you.
48:17I am a Leo
48:18and Leos love to be outgoing.
48:20They love to be confident.
48:22So I guess compared
48:22to everyone else here,
48:24my approach is just
48:25to be authentically myself
48:27and not hold anything back.
48:30Olivia.
48:31Grant, what was it
48:32about Olivia?
48:33A lot.
48:34I mean, she was
48:35spontaneous and adventurous.
48:37So that's why I chose that.
48:39I'm a little surprised
48:40that Ashley chose arrogance.
48:42Mm-hmm.
48:45Preach, brother.
48:45You're also very arrogant,
48:47so it kind of falls in line,
48:49but...
48:50Logan, what do you think?
48:51Well, I guess if that's the case,
48:52we got a lot in common, Grant,
48:54so...
48:57I don't think so.
48:58I am all for confidence.
49:00I would have respected him
49:01way more if he was just
49:03comfortable in his skin
49:04as opposed to thinking
49:05his skin is the holy grail.
49:09Grant can be very full of himself
49:11and a little bit arrogant.
49:12I just think it's kind of comical
49:14that he saw that in Logan.
49:17It's kind of embarrassing, honestly.
49:20It's shit.
49:22I think change is inevitable,
49:24like Mark said,
49:25and maybe if Ashley thinks
49:29that way of me,
49:30then we're not as connected
49:32as I thought.
49:37Cheers to some respectable,
49:39fine-ass men.
49:40Hey!
49:40Hey!
49:41I'll take that up!
49:42I'll take that!
49:43You good?
49:44Yeah.
49:44I'm built for this, baby.
49:48I came to be open,
49:49be vulnerable,
49:50and connect with
49:51as many people as I can.
49:52Wow, look at the stars.
49:53A little cheers
49:54with the hot chocolate.
49:55Cheers.
49:55Thanks for coming
49:56on this date with me.
49:57Oh!
49:58Oh, my God!
49:59Boom!
50:00With you, it's just like...
50:01Effortless.
50:02I've already been trying
50:03to resist myself.
50:05Stop dipping the straw
50:06in it like that.
50:07Why?
50:07You don't like it?
50:08People look at what if
50:09as such a negative thing.
50:11Oh, my Lord.
50:13But what if you get
50:14everything you ever wanted?
50:14I just really underestimated
50:16the amount of change
50:17that could happen here.
50:19Tonight, we're gonna have
50:20our first bonfire.
50:21Oh, boy.
50:22Gonna be interesting, boys.
50:23You'll all get a glimpse
50:24through clips
50:25of what your boyfriend's
50:27experience might be.
50:28Do any of these fine-ass girls
50:30in this house
50:30might throw you some fantasy?
50:32Oh, wow.
50:33Yeah.
50:34Oh, this is a bad look.
50:36It's a terrible look.
50:37That is pushing the limits
50:39of our boundaries.
50:40Are you willing to throw that away
50:42for girls you just met?
50:43You're very tempting to me.
50:45You sound like you're
50:46falling for temptation
50:47on temptation island.
50:49I want a lap dance.
50:50Someone give me a lap dance.
50:52I know that I can be okay
50:54without him.
50:55We think we know someone
50:56until we don't.
50:57This is an image
50:58I never thought I would see.
50:59There's a moment
51:00that I was getting
51:00very comfortable
51:01cuddling with Kay.
51:02Rolls off the tongue
51:03that I was cuddling with Kay.
51:04I wanted that guy
51:06but he didn't want to do that.
51:07I was not open
51:09to romantic vibes
51:10Oh my God!
51:12until last night.
51:13I hope you
51:15I hope you
51:19I
51:20I
51:21I
51:21I
51:22I
51:24I
51:24I
51:24I
51:25I
51:25I
51:25I
51:25I
51:26Can you hear the question
51:26should we be together
51:28I'm sorry
51:28or is there somebody
51:29better for me?
51:30So now you get to answer it.
51:32Do you want to leave together?
51:33Do you want to leave alone?
51:34Or have you connected
51:35with somebody new?
51:37No that's okay.
51:38I
51:38I
51:38I
51:39I
51:40I
51:40I
51:44Can I have a second?
51:46Absolutely.
51:50I don't know what to do.
52:12Back seat in the taxi, I almost let the night grab ahold of me.
52:18You're too cool, too cool.
