Transcript

00:00:02It's the morning after the last dinner party of the 2026 experiment and our couples are still

00:00:10processing the shocking exit of Gia and Scott who have left the experiment and will not continue to

00:00:17final vows. I can unpack it in one word, carnage. I'm not sure what it is that you're looking for

00:00:24Gia, but I can tell you're not the one for me. We are a different caliber of people. Sorry, but

00:00:32I'm done.

00:00:33Oh, Scott, Barty, no!

00:00:40It was a pretty epic crash and burn. Yeah. All she had to do was be honest, be genuine and

00:00:48focus on

00:00:49their relationship, but I didn't think they'd crash out that hard. So all of that time in the

00:00:55commitment ceremonies that they could have had working on their relationship, they've missed the

00:01:01opportunity. If he would have spiked up earlier, they probably would have split up earlier because

00:01:05the reality is Gia can't take any criticism. She thinks every time it's her being thrown under the

00:01:11bus. I did what I needed to do. I got Gia to that dinner party on purpose. Got her there.

00:01:19Got them, got them to have it out with each other. I'm very proud of myself, actually.

00:01:27So we can play at that game, honey.

00:01:32I came into this experiment looking for love. I definitely found what I've come here for.

00:01:39After three intense months,

00:01:43it all comes down to the final vows. The four remaining couples must make the life-changing

00:01:53decision.

00:01:56Here we go.

00:01:58Will they take their relationship into the outside world?

00:02:04Or will they say goodbye forever?

00:02:07I know this might be hard to hear.

00:02:12The four...

00:02:13Hi.

00:02:15One of the most magical moments the experiment's ever seen.

00:02:22Stella, I love you more than I ever thought possible.

00:02:52With the experiment ended, the time for final vows is the time for the final vows.

00:02:56The final vows is almost here for our remaining couples.

00:03:00Stella and Philip, Rachel and Stephen, Bec and Danny...

00:03:04It's nice that we're going to final vows together, you know?

00:03:08...and...

00:03:08...Alyssa and David.

00:03:12They'll now separate and spend time weighing up if they'll continue their relationship after the experiment.

00:03:19There's so much shit here.

00:03:22How did this happen?

00:03:24The next time they meet, they'll reveal their decision at final vows.

00:03:31Our couples must now go back to their respective homes to reflect on their time in the experiment

00:03:36before they make the life-changing decision on whether to remain as a couple or go their separate ways.

00:03:44This time will prove testing for our couples,

00:03:47as they will begin to question if their relationship is strong enough to continue

00:03:51when they leave the bubble of the experiment.

00:03:58Before everyone leaves their apartments, they're reflecting on last night's final dinner party.

00:04:05What about Dave and Alyssa?

00:04:06That was hard to watch.

00:04:08I saw a man coming in there, being vulnerable and getting rejected multiple times.

00:04:14It just doesn't sit well with me.

00:04:16Oh, I'm hurt. I'm hurt. Why? Why?

00:04:18Yeah.

00:04:19He haven't said or done anything wrong.

00:04:21It's a rejection. It's like...

00:04:23She kept saying...

00:04:25Finding one little thing that can be pinned on him and just, like, just focus on it.

00:04:31Like, come on.

00:04:33To take your ring off, that is a red flag for me.

00:04:36That, to me, is toxic.

00:04:38I never once took my ring off.

00:04:41Yeah, I think Alyssa's checked out.

00:04:43It was a hard watch, you know, seeing him like that.

00:04:45Like, he's actually really, really hurt.

00:04:49Poor David is there desperately trying to win her back and Alyssa's like...

00:04:55No.

00:04:57I actually feel bad for David.

00:04:59I think David's a good bloke.

00:05:00I think he's wore his heart on his sleeve.

00:05:03Alyssa's proven his point as to why he stayed quiet for so long

00:05:06because the second he spoke up, look at how it's gone.

00:05:09The poor bloke can't win.

00:05:11It's a dictatorship.

00:05:12It's not a relationship.

00:05:13Do you know what?

00:05:14I think in time, Alyssa might look back and regret that

00:05:16because David's a good bloke.

00:05:18She's got herself a good bloke there and they're hard to come across.

00:05:22And she's just shutting him out for something pretty minor, in my opinion.

00:05:29It's a lonely last morning for David.

00:05:32After the final dinner party, Alyssa and David retired to separate apartments,

00:05:38both spending their last night in the experiment alone.

00:06:12Today is such a sad day.

00:06:12I don't care if my husband comes for me, he can come for me, but he ain't coming for me.

00:06:16That's right, you know I'm boxing out.

00:06:17He ain't coming for me.

00:06:18I'd like to go out.

00:06:19Oh.

00:06:20Far out, man.

00:06:22I just gave you my feelings and you said lighten up.

00:06:25Prime example.

00:06:26No, that's just a joke, babe.

00:06:27It's all right, but that's how I feel.

00:06:29We were all just talking, getting to know each other.

00:06:31It was just, you know, chit chat.

00:06:33We all had a great day.

00:06:35No, I deserve more than that.

00:06:39I'm done too.

00:06:40Here you go.

00:06:43I'm done.

00:06:46Despite everything that's happened, I believe in our relationship and I wanted to fight for it.

00:06:52Last night, I put everything on the line, unashamedly chasing her, trying to get her back

00:06:59and show everyone that I wanted to fight for this relationship.

00:07:02And I'm here because I want to fight for this.

00:07:05I want you to know how much you mean to me.

00:07:07I walked away from someone that was the love of my life.

00:07:10I literally cannot walk away knowing that.

00:07:16She's giving him nothing.

00:07:17You're giving him nothing?

00:07:19It's just sad that I felt like no matter how hard I fought, she didn't want this.

00:07:24I'm literally here because I love this woman.

00:07:26Too late, though.

00:07:27I understand.

00:07:28Too late.

00:07:28I understand, but it's not too late.

00:07:30It's only too late if you want to throw three months down the drain.

00:07:33I feel like this dinner party's done.

00:07:35Babe, no.

00:07:36Honestly, it's done.

00:07:41Alyssa last night was someone I don't remember.

00:07:45Someone I don't recognize.

00:07:46She was cold.

00:07:48It felt like the relationship meant nothing to Alyssa.

00:07:52Like, I meant nothing to her.

00:07:56Right now, I'm questioning whether she ever wanted this to start with.

00:08:00No, I'm not going to marry you until you get down one ear and ask me to marry you.

00:08:04I can't tell if you're being serious.

00:08:07No, I am.

00:08:08So we're not doing the vows until I get down?

00:08:13Alyssa loves to be in control.

00:08:14She loves to be in the driving seat.

00:08:16And I was shut down.

00:08:19I function at a high frequency.

00:08:21And I feel like we're six weeks in.

00:08:24I'm missing that stimulation, that high frequency to make me happy.

00:08:31I'm a more high-functional person than you.

00:08:34Your experience is your experience.

00:08:35But someone on the outside listening in could take it differently.

00:08:39This is a me thing.

00:08:40And I don't know why you're dragging yourself into it.

00:08:42I'm really not dragging myself.

00:08:43I'm just having the conversation.

00:08:45This is a me thing, babe.

00:08:47She says she wants me to challenge her.

00:08:48But when I do challenge her, she doesn't like it.

00:08:51Looking back on it.

00:08:52Every time I challenged Alyssa, she shut me down.

00:08:56I can hardly get a word in.

00:08:58Talk to me.

00:08:59Well, I think I...

00:09:00Because, like, we need to voice.

00:09:02And that's what I need in this relationship.

00:09:04And you're not fulfilling that need for me.

00:09:06Well, all I'm going to say is...

00:09:08We should have gone there, but we haven't.

00:09:10And I haven't felt challenged enough.

00:09:14Well, she has...

00:09:15You did mention I was a weak man at one point.

00:09:17She called you a weak man?

00:09:20Yeah.

00:09:20So that's a problem?

00:09:23What's happened in this relationship is I've done a lot of listening.

00:09:25Alyssa has done a lot of talking.

00:09:27We're both adults.

00:09:28And I want to see that in her, that she has the ability to listen.

00:09:31I can't mind-read.

00:09:32It's not mind-reading.

00:09:33It's not mind-reading.

00:09:33Oh, my gosh.

00:09:33I can't.

00:09:34I cannot...

00:09:35I know.

00:09:35I can't mind-read, babe.

00:09:40I can't even explain the hurt from last night.

00:09:42You know, getting to bed after that dinner party was the hardest thing that I've had

00:09:47to do this whole experiment.

00:09:48Just knowing and replaying those moments where I heard Alyssa say things about me that showed

00:09:54she didn't care about me.

00:09:55It almost felt like she looked down on me for trying to fight for our relationship.

00:10:01I think, you know, you couldn't have asked for anything worse.

00:10:08Feeling much better today.

00:10:10Got a good night's sleep.

00:10:11I've woken up feeling much more relaxed and, yeah, I'm really looking forward to going

00:10:17home.

00:10:19The day's finally arrived where we're moving out.

00:10:23It's finished.

00:10:24The experiment is officially done and dusted.

00:10:29To see David take his ring off, it really hurt me because in real life, you don't do that.

00:10:34Like, I've never once taken my ring off.

00:10:37Even though they might be little things, they're big things for me.

00:10:40Yeah, I came here for love and I was falling in love with this person and then my feelings

00:10:46have changed because of the events that have unfolded this week.

00:10:49I know that he's sorry, but, yeah, there's a lot to process before making this decision

00:10:54in a few days.

00:10:58Down the hall, an emotional Rachel and Stephen are saying their goodbyes.

00:11:04I'm about to burst our little bubble, babe.

00:11:13Knowing that I'm going back to Melbourne and we'll be walking into an empty apartment tonight,

00:11:19it's just tough because Stephen's not going to be there and, you know, we are 900 kilometres

00:11:23apart.

00:11:24That concerns me because long distance, it's a hard one.

00:11:30Think of it as the next chapter starting.

00:11:32I know.

00:11:36Goodbye.

00:11:41This is it.

00:11:43I know.

00:11:46Oh, don't cry.

00:11:56I'm really lucky to have been able to do this and I'm really lucky to have met Stephen.

00:12:02Yeah.

00:12:04It's a couple of days.

00:12:06It's so sad that we're saying goodbye.

00:12:08We've built this little nest for ourselves and we've got to dismantle it and move apart

00:12:14and make a massive decision.

00:12:15Long distance is one of our biggest challenges.

00:12:18Going into final vows, that's definitely considered.

00:12:21I'm going to have some serious thinking to do.

00:12:23Oh, you're shaking.

00:12:25I know.

00:12:27See you soon.

00:12:28See you soon.

00:12:30Big travels.

00:12:31Bye.

00:12:33Bye.

00:12:52With the upcoming final vows weighing heavily on their minds, Alyssa and David have headed

00:12:58home to contemplate their decision.

00:13:01They'll spend the week apart, reflecting on whether to continue their relationship outside

00:13:07the experiment or leave their marriages for good.

00:13:11Coming home to Brisbane solo, it feels like a part of me has been taken away.

00:13:16There is so much good.

00:13:18There's so much light that has come out of this relationship.

00:13:22But I've still got the last week of our relationship looming over me.

00:13:30That last week of the experiment, I wore my heart on my sleeve and I felt like I kept getting

00:13:36pushed

00:13:36back and knocked back.

00:13:38This is one of the most uncertain places I've ever been in my life.

00:13:44I do love and care for this woman deeply, but at the same time, I have to decide whether

00:13:50I can forgive her.

00:13:56And in Adelaide, Alyssa is deliberating over whether to continue her relationship with David

00:14:02after the experiment.

00:14:04David has been so supportive.

00:14:06He's always had my back and I love that about him.

00:14:10But the last couple of weeks has taken a turn for us.

00:14:14The fact that as soon as he felt like it got hard, he took his ring off.

00:14:20I have to be able to see past this to be able to move forward into the real world.

00:14:26And my gut's telling me now, like, the little things are actually big things for me and

00:14:31they are deal breakers for me.

00:14:34David being upset with that final test date was a big red flag for me.

00:14:40Taking your ring off at the first sight of a, you know, seeing me having a good time socialising

00:14:46with other people, it's toxic.

00:14:48And I was like, nah, in the bin.

00:14:54If that moment didn't happen, maybe our relationship would be in a way better place right now.

00:15:02Maybe I would be in love right now.

00:15:05There's been a world of emotions lately.

00:15:07And I know that he's willing to fight for me.

00:15:10He got down on one knee, for God's sake, like, put my ring back on my finger.

00:15:15He's wanting this to work, but I am feeling the pressure of that.

00:15:34The moment has come for Alyssa and David to declare their feelings at final vows.

00:15:52I came into this experiment hoping to find love.

00:15:55I found love and I was hoping to leave here, you know, with a woman of my dreams and build

00:15:59a life and a family together in the future.

00:16:01So this decision today will be the start of the next stage.

00:16:12I love Alyssa and my feelings haven't changed for Alyssa.

00:16:17Coming into this decision, it's just finding that balance between my head and my heart.

00:16:21And I also don't know what's going to happen to me when I'm there, stood right in front of Alyssa.

00:16:28I don't know how I'm going to feel, so I'm a bit anxious.

00:16:32I've put everything into this relationship.

00:16:34I haven't held back.

00:16:36I did fall in love.

00:16:38When you love someone, you can't just switch off your feelings.

00:16:41That's the truth.

00:16:52David has made his intentions clear that he wants to make this work in the outside world

00:16:58and that he does love me and he doesn't want to lose me.

00:17:03So I feel like, I feel like he will be committed to the cause and he'll want to see this

00:17:09through

00:17:09into the real world.

00:17:13But, today is going to be tough for David.

00:17:21He missed the mark because he was a yes man.

00:17:29He told me he loved me.

00:17:31The ball is in my court today.

00:17:41And he breaks my heart knowing that I'm going to be breaking his heart at the end of this.

00:18:12Hello.

00:18:16Hello.

00:18:17How are you?

00:18:18I'm good. How are you?

00:18:20Beautiful.

00:18:24You're handsome.

00:18:26See? I've convinced you.

00:18:33Alright.

00:18:37Here we go.

00:18:38Hello.

00:18:41Melissa.

00:18:44Here we are.

00:18:46From the very beginning,

00:18:48our wedding day was something

00:18:50I'll never forget.

00:18:52The chemistry was instant.

00:18:54The banter, the laughs,

00:18:57the spark.

00:18:58It all felt effortless.

00:19:00And of course, how could I forget

00:19:02the moment when you looked me dead in the eye

00:19:04and said, I don't think I can marry you.

00:19:08Until you get down on one knee.

00:19:12What I saw wasn't just a bold woman

00:19:14making a big entrance,

00:19:16but someone who clearly wanted commitment,

00:19:19love, and something serious.

00:19:21The exact same things I came here for.

00:19:25You were strong, fiery, unapologetically yourself.

00:19:30And that energy instantly put my mind at ease.

00:19:35We never backed away from the challenges,

00:19:37and our connection deepened.

00:19:39Getting intimate and building trust.

00:19:42And week by week,

00:19:43it felt like we were just getting stronger and stronger.

00:19:46You reminded me what it felt like to care again.

00:19:49You broke down walls I didn't even realize that I built.

00:19:52You made me laugh, challenged me,

00:19:56and you opened up my heart to love.

00:20:02From the very beginning,

00:20:03you told me that the moment a man tries to control you,

00:20:07you run.

00:20:08So I listened.

00:20:10I did everything you said you wanted.

00:20:13I gave you space.

00:20:14I let you lead when you needed to.

00:20:17And I never tried to change you.

00:20:20But it was the final commitment ceremony

00:20:22where everything changed.

00:20:25I finally spoke up.

00:20:26I told you how at times I'd held back in this relationship,

00:20:29not because I didn't care,

00:20:31but because I was scared that being honest

00:20:33would push you further away.

00:20:36You accused me of blindsiding you,

00:20:38and in that moment,

00:20:39I realized something important.

00:20:41I wasn't being hurt.

00:20:43You couldn't see that I wasn't attacking you.

00:20:46I was finally standing up for myself.

00:20:48It wasn't about proving a point.

00:20:51It was about finding my voice.

00:20:54Despite your frustrations,

00:20:55I still wanted to fight for us.

00:20:58I vowed to let my walls down,

00:21:01be vulnerable,

00:21:02and express how I truly felt.

00:21:07I told you that I loved you.

00:21:11Something I'd wanted to say for a very long time.

00:21:15And although you couldn't say it back,

00:21:17I left feeling confident

00:21:18that there was still hope for us.

00:21:22Watching you back on the final test

00:21:24without alternate matches,

00:21:26you flirted,

00:21:27made inappropriate jokes,

00:21:29and spoke poorly about me behind my back.

00:21:32I felt betrayed and disrespected by what I saw.

00:21:37On our wedding day,

00:21:38you stated that you wanted to be challenged

00:21:39in this relationship.

00:21:41So that is what I did.

00:21:42I challenged you,

00:21:43and you shut me down.

00:21:45It felt as though you wouldn't take any accountability

00:21:49for how I had felt.

00:21:52We've had moments of laughter and deep affection,

00:21:56but we've also had moments where I felt shut down,

00:22:00controlled,

00:22:00and unheard.

00:22:03There have been times when I tried to express myself

00:22:05but was met with criticism or correction

00:22:08instead of curiosity.

00:22:11What I've come to understand

00:22:13is that with you,

00:22:14there was no version of me that could win.

00:22:18If I pushed harder,

00:22:20I would have been called controlling.

00:22:22If I held back,

00:22:23I was labeled disconnected.

00:22:26I've realized I can't be the man

00:22:28who constantly fights to be heard

00:22:30or to constantly fight to prove his worth

00:22:32to someone who is still deciding

00:22:34if I'll be enough.

00:22:38Throughout all this,

00:22:39I've been patient,

00:22:41and I've done a lot of the listening,

00:22:44but I'm done listening.

00:22:49So today,

00:22:53I'm not walking away

00:22:54because I've stopped loving you, Alyssa.

00:22:58I'm walking away

00:23:01because loving you shouldn't mean losing myself.

00:23:25You're not going to listen to my vows?

00:23:33That's a no.

00:23:39Wow,

00:23:40I just wasted three months of my life

00:23:41and he won't even listen to me.

00:23:58David.

00:24:00Wow.

00:24:01I can't believe we're here

00:24:03at the end of this experiment.

00:24:06Three months ago,

00:24:08we were complete strangers

00:24:09standing at an altar

00:24:11saying I do.

00:24:12The choice to walk away

00:24:13from final vows today for me

00:24:15was all about

00:24:17choosing myself

00:24:17in this relationship

00:24:18and making my voice heard.

00:24:21So much of this relationship

00:24:23has been about Alyssa

00:24:24and me putting her first.

00:24:26I ordered to myself

00:24:27to make my voice heard

00:24:29because most of the relationship,

00:24:31I was the one listening.

00:24:33I feel like I put all my cards on the table

00:24:36and all I was wanting from Alyssa

00:24:39was some accountability.

00:24:41Some wanting to fight for this.

00:24:45Then came our homestays.

00:24:47That's when the real world came crashing in.

00:24:49The pressure of my home,

00:24:51my business, my cat, my life in Adelaide

00:24:54and how I can't just pack up and leave

00:24:56in three months like we initially discussed.

00:24:59You said you'd move, that we'd make it work.

00:25:02It sounded perfect,

00:25:04but something in my heart felt off.

00:25:09There's been so much pain

00:25:11that I've experienced the last two weeks.

00:25:14You know, you can't love someone

00:25:16and unfortunately sometimes

00:25:19they're not ready to let you in.

00:25:22I feel tremendously heartbroken.

00:25:24She knew I wanted her

00:25:26and still,

00:25:27it felt like I was fighting

00:25:29for a relationship

00:25:31that someone wasn't willing to fight for.

00:25:39David, you are everything I wanted and more.

00:25:42You are strong.

00:25:43You are kind.

00:25:44You are compassionate.

00:25:46You are a leader.

00:25:47But standing here today,

00:25:48I can only be honest.

00:25:50I love you, David,

00:25:52for who you are,

00:25:53but not for me.

00:25:56.

00:26:34In Melbourne,

00:26:35Rachel has returned home

00:26:37where she will reflect on her relationship with Stephen

00:26:40ahead of the final vows.

00:26:42Being here at the end, it's great.

00:26:44It is a really nice feeling.

00:26:45I feel really united with Stephen

00:26:47and there's this really nice closeness,

00:26:50playful, flirtiness that we have in our relationship.

00:26:54I feel like we're both as goofy as each other.

00:26:56Oh my God, I might be good at this game.

00:27:01Yes, yes.

00:27:02Better make sure that's us.

00:27:06We have grown so much together

00:27:08and we have both been vulnerable.

00:27:11I do like you

00:27:12and I have caught up in my feelings for you.

00:27:17I've never had a deeply emotional,

00:27:21connected relationship before.

00:27:23And I've got one.

00:27:25But Stephen can't leave Sydney because of his business.

00:27:31We have grown together through this experiment,

00:27:34but moving out of the bubble into the real world concerns me.

00:27:40What are you scared of the most?

00:27:43I'm scared that Stephen will go back to his life in Sydney

00:27:47and it's just going to be easier for him to let me go.

00:27:52Because he is time poor and he has his business.

00:27:56And so it might be a burden

00:28:00to try and maintain our relationship with me.

00:28:03So he might just let me go.

00:28:07So, yeah.

00:28:10That's, that's my fear.

00:28:14I am concerned that we're going back to our lives.

00:28:19He might evaluate things

00:28:21and he might just see that as a,

00:28:23well, it's actually easier without you.

00:28:25And his decision could be,

00:28:29no, thank you.

00:28:31So, yeah, I am concerned.

00:28:33I am concerned.

00:28:42In Sydney, Stephen is looking back on his time

00:28:46in the experiment with Rachel.

00:28:51Despite sharing a strong emotional connection

00:28:54within the bubble of the experiment,

00:28:56Stephen is contemplating if that bond is strong enough

00:28:59to last the distance in the outside world.

00:29:04Rachel's patience and kindness

00:29:06and I've got to hand it to her.

00:29:09I feel like Rachel really saved the relationship.

00:29:14And reflecting on the relationship,

00:29:16I haven't always been the greatest husband.

00:29:21I don't remember getting a compliment from you

00:29:23on how I look today.

00:29:25You do look gorgeous.

00:29:26And I'm really sorry that I didn't say it when it mattered.

00:29:29Do you think Stephen is affectionate enough?

00:29:36No!

00:29:41We've had our ups, we've had our downs.

00:29:44There's quite a large part of the relationship

00:29:46where I was sort of dragging the chain

00:29:48and my feelings started quite late for Rachel.

00:29:52I look back at intimacy week and how I sort of rejected Rachel

00:29:56and one of the tasks there.

00:30:01I can kiss you, Rachel.

00:30:04I'm not too sure if it's going to make you feel something.

00:30:07I need to feel that romantic connection.

00:30:09And unfortunately, I haven't felt that romantic connection as of yet.

00:30:20I've realised that I've just been a little bit lacking in the relationship-wise.

00:30:26I've probably just got to be a little bit more proactive in my emotions.

00:30:33Being away from Rachel, I've realised that, yeah, I do have deep feelings for her.

00:30:40But at the same time, I guess my biggest fear is that I will not meet Rachel's expectations

00:30:47within our relationship in the real world.

00:30:51There's a lot more other challenges outside the experiment.

00:30:55Rachel's from Melbourne, I'm from Sydney.

00:30:57I've started a business here and, fortunately for now, I'm being a real pain in the arse

00:31:01and I'm saying to Rachel, I can't move from Sydney.

00:31:05When Rachel mentioned that she's going to move to Sydney,

00:31:08I am worried that she might regret it later.

00:31:11But I can see our future together.

00:31:15But it will not excuse the feelings of doubt that I've got,

00:31:21that we may not just make it because of these challenges that lie ahead of us.

00:31:32After nearly three months in the experiment,

00:31:36the time has come for Rachel and Stephen to decide

00:31:40whether to continue their relationship outside the experiment

00:31:44or part ways forever.

00:31:49I'm nervous because we've had a few hiccups along through the experiment

00:31:55and I haven't really been the greatest of husbands either.

00:32:07We've come so far and I've got someone I can be comfortable around

00:32:12and they like me for being me.

00:32:18I've missed Rachel.

00:32:19I'm excited to see her.

00:32:23But, you know, there is that thought in the back of my head going

00:32:26long distance, potential career changes.

00:32:30I've got these concerns that are polluting my head.

00:32:39It is a concern for me that we left on good terms

00:32:42but during our time apart,

00:32:44Stephen's life has been pulled into focus again

00:32:48of like what he has left behind.

00:32:53It scares me that Stephen's going to brush it off

00:32:56and then he's going to go, you know what, this is just too hard.

00:33:02But, at the same time,

00:33:04I've never had a guy make me feel as special as Stephen does.

00:33:11I've never had a guy make me feel as though I'm okay just being me.

00:33:17I am loud.

00:33:19I am a big personality.

00:33:22But Stephen's never asked me to be anything else.

00:33:27That's so rare to find in a partner.

00:33:30I'm hoping that I walk out of my final vows with Stephen hand in hand

00:33:35and we move forward and it all comes together for us.

00:33:47Still to come.

00:33:52Will Rachel get the commitment she's always wanted from Stephen?

00:33:57I won't lie.

00:33:58There have been moments in this experiment where I seriously questioned everything.

00:34:03An outpouring of emotion.

00:34:06You've made me believe in love against Stella.

00:34:09You've shown me what kindness, loyalty and genuine care look like.

00:34:15And Beck and Danny's final vows.

00:34:18But what will Danny decide?

00:34:24Beck.

00:34:25Beck.

00:35:25Look at that jacket.

00:35:26I love it.

00:35:26I know, look at you.

00:35:27You look beautiful.

00:35:29You look nervous.

00:35:31I am nervous.

00:35:33I feel like...

00:35:35Let's get into it.

00:35:36You ready?

00:35:37All right.

00:35:38As ready as I'm ever going to be.

00:35:40I'm not going to lie.

00:35:40I'm a little bit nervous myself.

00:35:42All right.

00:35:43Okay.

00:35:44All righty.

00:35:47Okay.

00:35:49Dear Stephen,

00:35:51Showing up to this experiment,

00:35:53I had experienced hurt in the dating world.

00:35:55Never been the chosen one

00:35:57and always left wondering why I wasn't enough.

00:36:00I came in knowing I'm not always easy.

00:36:02I'm strong, independent,

00:36:05and sometimes emotional,

00:36:08which meant I also had some learning to do,

00:36:11but I was willing to do the work.

00:36:14I showed up with an open heart

00:36:15and a deep hope

00:36:17that I might find real love

00:36:18and have my very own rom-com ending

00:36:21with a new leading man.

00:36:24Our journey hasn't been smooth sailing.

00:36:30During the honeymoon,

00:36:32I questioned your humour.

00:36:33Some jokes made me feel bad about myself.

00:36:35I started questioning my self-worth.

00:36:37Ultimately,

00:36:38I started to question our marriage.

00:36:41Affection was a big struggle.

00:36:43Intimacy week

00:36:44was one of the hardest moments

00:36:46in this experiment for us.

00:36:52I bravely opened my heart

00:36:54in such a vulnerable way.

00:36:56I felt exposed and rejected

00:36:58when you pulled away

00:36:59and didn't kiss me.

00:37:07Then at retreat,

00:37:08when I was excited about our progress,

00:37:10everything came crashing down.

00:37:13And because of that,

00:37:14I became emotionally raw,

00:37:16unravelling in front of you.

00:37:26But despite that,

00:37:27you stuck around.

00:37:28You supported me.

00:37:30You didn't try to fix it.

00:37:32You didn't walk away.

00:37:33You simply stayed with me.

00:37:35In that moment,

00:37:37my feelings for you deepened.

00:37:40I usually keep those parts of me guarded,

00:37:42covering the fears and hurt I carry

00:37:44to avoid being a burden to someone else.

00:37:48Because I have always believed

00:37:50that I might be too much to love.

00:37:53The final test

00:37:54with our alternate matches

00:37:55made me anxious.

00:37:56My insecurities

00:37:58of never being chosen

00:37:59began to resurface.

00:38:05But you proved me wrong

00:38:06with your words

00:38:08and your loyalty.

00:38:10It has been a slow burn.

00:38:13But it's allowed something

00:38:14rare to grow between us.

00:38:16A deep emotional connection.

00:38:19One I've never had

00:38:20with a man before.

00:38:22You've accepted me in ways

00:38:24I didn't know I needed.

00:38:26From getting emotionally

00:38:27attached to our fish.

00:38:29To singing the same line

00:38:31of a song on repeat.

00:38:33You've never asked me

00:38:34to tone it down,

00:38:36be less,

00:38:37or shrink myself

00:38:38to fit beside you.

00:38:39You've let me

00:38:41be me.

00:38:42Completely.

00:38:43And that's all

00:38:44I've ever wanted.

00:38:47I choose you, Stephen.

00:38:50No hesitation.

00:38:52No holding back.

00:38:55I want to walk out

00:38:56of this experiment

00:38:57hand in hand with you.

00:38:59Ready to keep building

00:39:00something messy.

00:39:01Something beautiful.

00:39:02Something real.

00:39:03And entirely out.

00:39:06I've never felt for anyone

00:39:07what I feel for you.

00:39:10And even with all the fears

00:39:12that whisper

00:39:12in the background.

00:39:14I want this.

00:39:16I want you, Stephen.

00:39:31Oh, man.

00:39:34I've missed that laugh, though.

00:39:37Calms me down.

00:39:38I love hearing it.

00:39:39I'm glad it makes you calm.

00:39:43Here we go.

00:39:47Rachel, on our wedding day,

00:39:49I turned around,

00:39:50we locked eyes,

00:39:51there was lots of laughter.

00:39:54A lot of laughter.

00:39:58But then the experiment kicked in.

00:40:00And wow,

00:40:01it's been one wild ride.

00:40:04We had moments

00:40:05that felt like pure magic,

00:40:07laughing until our cheeks hurt

00:40:09and discovering

00:40:10that we actually enjoy

00:40:11each other's weird,

00:40:13messy, chaotic selves.

00:40:16Those days were full of curiosity

00:40:18and exploring

00:40:19what it meant to be open,

00:40:22vulnerable

00:40:22and willing to give this

00:40:24a real chance.

00:40:27But of course,

00:40:28not everything was easy.

00:40:32I won't lie.

00:40:34There have been moments

00:40:35in this experiment

00:40:36where I seriously

00:40:37questioned everything.

00:40:38There were times

00:40:40where I spent nights

00:40:41lying away,

00:40:42thinking,

00:40:42can I really do this?

00:40:45Am I out of my depth?

00:40:50When the experiment began,

00:40:52I told myself I'd be open.

00:40:54But the truth is,

00:40:55old habits die hard.

00:41:01I was holding back

00:41:02and afraid of not being enough.

00:41:07But you challenged me.

00:41:09I wasn't used to someone

00:41:11expecting more from me.

00:41:12I remember the moment

00:41:14things shifted.

00:41:15It was the way you looked at me

00:41:16when I finally let my guard drop.

00:41:19The way you stood by me

00:41:20when I thought

00:41:21I didn't deserve it.

00:41:22I stopped trying to protect myself

00:41:24from being hurt

00:41:24and holding back

00:41:25in fear of rejection.

00:41:29You saw me.

00:41:31You accepted me.

00:41:33All of me.

00:41:34Steve-O.

00:41:36You've taught me

00:41:37that love isn't about perfection.

00:41:40It's about being real.

00:41:41Coming into this experiment,

00:41:43I had convinced myself

00:41:45that I was unlovable,

00:41:46too stubborn,

00:41:47too guarded,

00:41:48and too complicated.

00:41:50I had hope,

00:41:51but I also found it hard

00:41:53to imagine anyone ever

00:41:54loving someone like me.

00:41:56me.

00:41:58Rachel,

00:41:59you really changed that for me.

00:42:03You taught me

00:42:04that my heart wasn't broken.

00:42:06It was just waiting

00:42:07for the right person

00:42:08to see it.

00:42:09And that person

00:42:10is you, Rachel.

00:42:14So today,

00:42:15I'm standing here

00:42:16to tell you

00:42:18that I choose you.

00:42:22I choose your smile,

00:42:24your laugh,

00:42:25your smile.

00:42:29And I promise

00:42:30from this day forward

00:42:31to show up for you,

00:42:32take every risk with you,

00:42:34and to never stop

00:42:35choosing you.

00:42:39I am falling for you.

00:42:43Rachel,

00:42:44I choose you,

00:42:45and I'm diving in

00:42:48headfirst,

00:42:49fearless.

00:43:06Like a fairytale ending,

00:43:08isn't it?

00:43:09Like,

00:43:09to hear Rachel say,

00:43:10I choose you,

00:43:11it was,

00:43:12made me really happy.

00:43:14Oh my gosh,

00:43:15oh my gosh.

00:43:16I feel really good.

00:43:18I'm like,

00:43:19I'm very,

00:43:19very happy.

00:43:23Oh,

00:43:23you want to be

00:43:24my girlfriend?

00:43:24Yes,

00:43:24I want to be your girlfriend.

00:43:26Oh,

00:43:26there we go.

00:43:26Now it's official.

00:43:29Oh my gosh,

00:43:31oh my gosh.

00:43:32All right.

00:43:33Well.

00:43:35Where to be community,

00:43:36you two?

00:43:38Probably more passion.

00:43:46Rachel and Stephen

00:43:47are leaving the building.

00:43:49Oh my gosh.

00:43:51Yeah,

00:43:52we've worked hard

00:43:52in our relationship.

00:43:53We've,

00:43:54I feel like I've got

00:43:55massive,

00:43:55you know,

00:43:56personal development

00:43:57from the experiment,

00:43:58and I'm walking out

00:43:59with,

00:44:00well,

00:44:01a girlfriend.

00:44:04That's true.

00:44:16There'll be more

00:44:17of that later.

00:44:33With the experiment

00:44:34coming to an end,

00:44:36one of this year's

00:44:37most tumultuous couples

00:44:39is packing up

00:44:40and leaving the apartment.

00:44:42Beck and Danny

00:44:43will now individually

00:44:44head back home

00:44:46and weigh up

00:44:47whether they want

00:44:48to continue

00:44:48their marriage

00:44:49beyond the experiment.

00:44:52No,

00:44:52don't leave.

00:44:54No.

00:44:55No,

00:44:56you're not allowed

00:44:56to go home.

00:44:57Shut up.

00:44:57You're not allowed.

00:44:59Moving out today,

00:45:00it's bittersweet.

00:45:02Bitter because

00:45:04I just want to be

00:45:05in my love bubble

00:45:05with my husband.

00:45:06I don't like this.

00:45:08Shut up.

00:45:09You'll be all right.

00:45:11By far the best thing

00:45:13I've ever done.

00:45:14It's so sad.

00:45:15I don't like it.

00:45:20It's our place,

00:45:21you know.

00:45:22We've had

00:45:23some of the best

00:45:24memories in here.

00:45:25Some of the worst ones

00:45:26too,

00:45:26but some of the

00:45:27best memories.

00:45:30Babe,

00:45:31can you help me?

00:45:32I can't lift this

00:45:33off the bed.

00:45:34No.

00:45:35Over time,

00:45:38being with Danny,

00:45:39being married to him,

00:45:40living with him,

00:45:40I've seen that he

00:45:41is just such

00:45:42a sensitive soul.

00:45:44I'll see you later.

00:45:48Your face.

00:45:50And that

00:45:51whilst we both

00:45:52were a bit out

00:45:53of our depth

00:45:53in this experiment

00:45:54at times,

00:45:55the effort

00:45:56that he's put in

00:45:57and worked

00:45:58with me

00:45:59and us together

00:46:00on this relationship

00:46:01just shows

00:46:02that he's

00:46:03really serious

00:46:03about it.

00:46:07what have you got

00:46:08in there?

00:46:08Dead body?

00:46:11Probably the last

00:46:12couple of weeks

00:46:12has been really,

00:46:13really tough,

00:46:14I'll be honest.

00:46:15Nearing the end

00:46:16of the experiment

00:46:16and I feel like

00:46:18pretty drained.

00:46:19But look,

00:46:19I wouldn't change it

00:46:20for the world.

00:46:20It's been a once

00:46:21in a lifetime experience.

00:46:23We've had some

00:46:24amazing times here.

00:46:25We've had some

00:46:26horrendous times here.

00:46:27We've gone through

00:46:29stress together,

00:46:30happy times,

00:46:31sad times,

00:46:32tears,

00:46:33everything together.

00:46:33So it's been a

00:46:34rollercoaster,

00:46:35so to speak.

00:46:36But we're here,

00:46:37which is amazing,

00:46:39you know?

00:46:40I'm really going to

00:46:41cherish the next

00:46:42few days to actually

00:46:43sit down,

00:46:45go for some

00:46:46long walks,

00:46:47drink some coffee

00:46:48and see what's

00:46:50the right move

00:46:50for me moving

00:46:51forward,

00:46:52you know?

00:46:53I've got a

00:46:53business meeting

00:46:55to go to.

00:46:56Some bourbon

00:46:57massive tips.

00:46:58Oh, Daniel!

00:47:00It just reminds

00:47:01you of the journey.

00:47:02Like, three months

00:47:03ago we were

00:47:03strangers and today

00:47:06we're like,

00:47:07like, love has

00:47:09come up,

00:47:09and I am

00:47:11obsessed with him.

00:47:13I love him.

00:47:15See you later.

00:47:19We'll speak anyway.

00:47:20All right.

00:47:21See ya.

00:47:29After a few

00:47:30days apart,

00:47:31Beck and Danny

00:47:33are reflecting

00:47:33on their relationship

00:47:34before they head

00:47:36to final vows.

00:47:38I think

00:47:39Danny loves me.

00:47:40I think

00:47:41he does.

00:47:41I think

00:47:42that he

00:47:44is going

00:47:44to take

00:47:45this time

00:47:45away

00:47:47and realise

00:47:49that we

00:47:49make each

00:47:50other better

00:47:50people.

00:47:52I think

00:47:52he does

00:47:53love me,

00:47:53but I need

00:47:54to hear it

00:47:56from him

00:47:56and I think

00:47:56final vows

00:47:57is the place

00:47:58I need to

00:47:58hear it.

00:47:59I want to be

00:48:00loved

00:48:01and I want

00:48:01to be adored

00:48:02and I

00:48:02deserve it.

00:48:03While Beck

00:48:04is crystal

00:48:05clear in

00:48:05her decision,

00:48:07in his

00:48:07hometown of

00:48:08Melbourne,

00:48:09Danny is

00:48:10not entirely

00:48:10convinced of

00:48:11the decision

00:48:12he'll be

00:48:12making about

00:48:13his future

00:48:14with Beck

00:48:14at the

00:48:15final vows

00:48:16ceremony.

00:48:17I came here

00:48:17looking for the

00:48:18Bonnie to my

00:48:18Clyde and

00:48:19Beck has

00:48:20characteristics

00:48:21what I'm

00:48:22looking for,

00:48:23some of the

00:48:23best memories

00:48:24I've ever had

00:48:25in my life.

00:48:26How do you feel

00:48:26about the words

00:48:27I wrote?

00:48:28I love what

00:48:28you write.

00:48:29That's so

00:48:30cute.

00:48:30But when

00:48:31me and

00:48:31Beck is

00:48:32very much

00:48:32like that,

00:48:33it's very

00:48:33much up

00:48:34and down,

00:48:35the hardest

00:48:35thing in the

00:48:36experiment's

00:48:36definitely

00:48:37been conflict.

00:48:38One of the

00:48:39major doubts

00:48:40for me is

00:48:41when there's

00:48:41a problem

00:48:42which isn't

00:48:43even a big

00:48:43problem,

00:48:44it can

00:48:44escalate into

00:48:45a big problem

00:48:46because I

00:48:46don't feel

00:48:47I can really

00:48:47talk to

00:48:48Beck.

00:48:49Sometimes

00:48:49I'm met

00:48:49with like

00:48:52aggression

00:48:52and sometimes

00:48:53she can

00:48:54sort of

00:48:54get her

00:48:54back up

00:48:55pretty easily.

00:48:56Just take

00:48:57it on

00:48:57board

00:48:57and

00:48:58I'm

00:48:58taking

00:48:58it on

00:48:59board.

00:48:59And take

00:48:59what I'm

00:49:00saying.

00:49:03Don't say

00:49:03thank you.

00:49:04It's not

00:49:04about saying

00:49:04thank you.

00:49:05But take

00:49:06what I'm

00:49:06saying.

00:49:08As seriously

00:49:09stop saying

00:49:10thank you.

00:49:12Yeah,

00:49:12I'm done.

00:49:15It's

00:49:16fine.

00:49:16I mean,

00:49:18this is

00:49:19what I

00:49:19mean.

00:49:20Yeah,

00:49:21good luck

00:49:21for me

00:49:21for the rest

00:49:22of my

00:49:22getting

00:49:22crucified.

00:49:25Daniel,

00:49:26come and

00:49:26sit next

00:49:27to me.

00:49:32Daniel,

00:49:33stand here

00:49:34and look

00:49:34united with

00:49:35me.

00:49:36Don't tell

00:49:36me what

00:49:37to do.

00:49:38Beck does

00:49:38like drama.

00:49:39She's been

00:49:40involved in

00:49:40a lot of

00:49:41drama with

00:49:41the group.

00:49:42You've given

00:49:42me the

00:49:42ick.

00:49:43If you

00:49:43can't read

00:49:44the situation

00:49:44accurately and

00:49:45you misinterpret

00:49:46words, that's

00:49:47not really on

00:49:48me, that's

00:49:48on you.

00:49:49Oh honey,

00:49:50you're the

00:49:50one that

00:49:51wrote them

00:49:51and read

00:49:52them.

00:49:52It ain't

00:49:53me, I'm

00:49:53reading them

00:49:54how you

00:49:54said them.

00:49:55When we

00:49:56went to

00:49:56dinner party

00:49:57free and

00:49:57Beck went

00:49:58off at

00:49:58everyone, I

00:49:59felt so

00:49:59uncomfortable.

00:50:00I was

00:50:01embarrassed of

00:50:01her behaviour.

00:50:02Stare at me

00:50:03with your

00:50:03evil eyes.

00:50:05Danny looks

00:50:06embarrassed.

00:50:06Because neither

00:50:07of you have

00:50:08got any

00:50:08friends here

00:50:09anymore.

00:50:12And then

00:50:12trying to

00:50:13talk to her

00:50:13about it, I

00:50:14had to be

00:50:15very careful

00:50:16with the

00:50:16way I was

00:50:17worded my

00:50:17words.

00:50:18Seeing her

00:50:19behave that

00:50:20way, how did

00:50:20you feel?

00:50:22It's a

00:50:22tough question

00:50:23to answer.

00:50:24He's

00:50:24scared of her.

00:50:25Just answer

00:50:26honestly.

00:50:27Were you

00:50:28proud?

00:50:28Were you

00:50:29embarrassed?

00:50:32You were

00:50:32what?

00:50:33Maybe

00:50:33slightly

00:50:33embarrassed,

00:50:34yeah.

00:50:37We have

00:50:37been through

00:50:38hell and

00:50:39high water

00:50:40together.

00:50:40We've had

00:50:41each other's

00:50:41backs.

00:50:41There's been

00:50:42good points.

00:50:43But there's

00:50:44also been

00:50:44some really,

00:50:44really bad

00:50:45times.

00:50:46So I

00:50:47have to sit

00:50:47down as a

00:50:48man, assess

00:50:50if Beck's

00:50:51the right

00:50:51person for

00:50:52me.

00:51:06I cannot

00:51:07believe that

00:51:08I've come

00:51:08into this

00:51:09experiment,

00:51:10fallen in

00:51:10love and

00:51:12I'm standing

00:51:13here at

00:51:13final vows.

00:51:15Today could

00:51:15be absolutely

00:51:16life-changing

00:51:17for me.

00:51:17It could

00:51:18literally be

00:51:18the beginning.

00:51:19of the

00:51:20rest of

00:51:20my life.

00:51:34Me and

00:51:35Beck get

00:51:35along so

00:51:35well, we

00:51:36care about

00:51:36each other.

00:51:42Honestly,

00:51:42I've given

00:51:43this experiment

00:51:43everything I've

00:51:44got.

00:51:47But I do

00:51:48have to make

00:51:50the correct

00:51:50decision for

00:51:51my life and

00:51:52my future

00:51:52as well.

00:52:16I am manifesting

00:52:20that it's going

00:52:20to be the best

00:52:21to be the best

00:52:21day ever and

00:52:23that I'm going

00:52:23to hear exactly

00:52:24what I hope

00:52:25to hear and

00:52:26we run

00:52:27off into

00:52:28the future

00:52:28together.

00:52:30I love

00:52:31Danny.

00:52:32Even though

00:52:33we argue,

00:52:34that doesn't

00:52:35diminish the

00:52:36feelings that I

00:52:36have for him.

00:52:38We have

00:52:39overcome so

00:52:39many hurdles

00:52:40together and

00:52:42I can't imagine

00:52:43my life without

00:52:43him now.

00:53:09tell me what

00:53:12your number

00:53:13one ick is

00:53:20Guys in

00:53:21cars that

00:53:21have the

00:53:22loud engine

00:53:24so insecure.

00:53:25If you need

00:53:25that much

00:53:26attention on

00:53:26yourself,

00:53:27you must

00:53:28not have

00:53:28a personality.

00:53:29Or a

00:53:29really small

00:53:30person.

00:53:30Or 100%.

00:53:32Compensating

00:53:32but not.

00:53:33I do not

00:53:34care what

00:53:34you drive,

00:53:35mate.

00:53:43heels.

00:53:44That is

00:53:45no way.

00:53:46When me

00:53:47and my

00:53:47boyfriend

00:53:47dating,

00:53:48he had

00:54:39I

00:54:39first

00:54:39met

00:54:40you

00:54:40with

00:54:40the

00:54:40end

00:54:42honest.

00:54:43Here we

00:54:44go.

00:54:45I

00:54:46didn't

00:54:46feel

00:54:46an

00:54:46instant

00:54:47spark.

00:54:47I

00:54:48remember

00:54:48thinking

00:54:48you

00:54:49weren't

00:54:49quite

00:54:49my

00:54:49type

00:54:50and

00:54:50maybe

00:54:51even

00:54:51that

00:54:51you

00:54:51were

00:54:51a

00:54:51bit

00:54:51of

00:54:52a

00:54:52boy.

00:54:55But as

00:54:55the

00:54:56days

00:54:56went

00:54:56on,

00:54:57I

00:54:57started

00:54:57to

00:54:57see

00:54:58something

00:54:58different.

00:54:58Someone

00:54:59kind,

00:55:00someone

00:55:00grounded

00:55:00and

00:55:01quietly

00:55:01protective.

00:55:02Our

00:55:03honeymoon,

00:55:04we had

00:55:04moments

00:55:04of

00:55:04laughter,

00:55:05connection

00:55:06and

00:55:06excitement.

00:55:08When

00:55:08we

00:55:08moved

00:55:09into

00:55:09our

00:55:09apartment,

00:55:10I

00:55:10felt

00:55:10hopeful.

00:55:11It

00:55:12started

00:55:12to feel

00:55:12like we

00:55:12were

00:55:12building

00:55:13something

00:55:13real.

00:55:14But

00:55:14then

00:55:15you

00:55:15told

00:55:15me

00:55:15we

00:55:15had

00:55:16low

00:55:16sexual

00:55:16chemistry.

00:55:18But

00:55:19we

00:55:20chose

00:55:20our

00:55:20relationship

00:55:20and

00:55:21instead

00:55:21of

00:55:22running

00:55:22away,

00:55:22we

00:55:22worked

00:55:22on it

00:55:23and

00:55:23tried

00:55:23to

00:55:23reconnect.

00:55:24One

00:55:25kiss

00:55:25every

00:55:25morning

00:55:25and

00:55:26one

00:55:26kiss

00:55:26every

00:55:26night.

00:55:29In

00:55:29intimacy

00:55:29week,

00:55:30the

00:55:30fantasy

00:55:31night

00:55:31changed

00:55:31everything.

00:55:32For the

00:55:33first time,

00:55:33I felt

00:55:34like we

00:55:34truly connected

00:55:34emotionally,

00:55:35physically

00:55:36and

00:55:36spiritually.

00:55:37It

00:55:37was a

00:55:37moment I

00:55:38realised this

00:55:38wasn't just

00:55:39an experiment

00:55:39anymore.

00:55:40It was

00:55:40something real

00:55:41and something

00:55:41worth fighting

00:55:42for.

00:55:43Of

00:55:43course,

00:55:44it

00:55:44hasn't all

00:55:44been smooth

00:55:45sailing.

00:55:45We've

00:55:45had our

00:55:46arguments.

00:55:48At

00:55:49the third

00:55:49dinner

00:55:49party,

00:55:50I let

00:55:50my emotions

00:55:51get the

00:55:51better of

00:55:52me and

00:55:53I could

00:55:53see the

00:55:54disappointment

00:55:54in your

00:55:54eyes.

00:55:56When you

00:55:56said that I

00:55:57embarrassed

00:55:57you,

00:55:58I was

00:55:58crushed

00:55:59because your

00:56:00opinion of

00:56:00me actually

00:56:01matters so

00:56:01much.

00:56:03You are,

00:56:04without a

00:56:05doubt,

00:56:05the funniest

00:56:05man I've

00:56:06ever met

00:56:06and I

00:56:07love that

00:56:07about you.

00:56:09You light

00:56:09up every

00:56:10room and

00:56:10every day

00:56:11with you

00:56:11brings

00:56:11smiles and

00:56:12laughter.

00:56:14Love isn't

00:56:15just about the

00:56:15good moments,

00:56:16it's about who

00:56:17you choose to

00:56:17stand beside

00:56:18when things

00:56:18get hard.

00:56:26Daniel,

00:56:27you're my

00:56:27best friend,

00:56:28my safe

00:56:28space.

00:56:29me a better

00:56:30person and

00:56:30you lift me

00:56:31up when I'm

00:56:31down.

00:56:32kind of man

00:57:43it gonna

00:57:43go?

00:57:56Beg,

00:57:58first and

00:57:59foremost,

00:57:59I want

00:58:00to start

00:58:00off by

00:58:00saying how

00:58:01much of an

00:58:02honor it's

00:58:02been to do

00:58:02this crazy

00:58:03experiment

00:58:03with you.

00:58:05I came

00:58:06onto this

00:58:06experiment

00:58:07looking for

00:58:08the Bonnie

00:58:08to my

00:58:09Clyde.

00:58:11Our

00:58:12wedding day

00:58:12was beautiful.

00:58:13We instantly

00:58:14seemed to

00:58:14get on,

00:58:15shared the

00:58:16same sense

00:58:16of humor,

00:58:17it put

00:58:17my mind

00:58:18at ease.

00:58:20Then we

00:58:20went to our

00:58:21honeymoon to

00:58:21beautiful

00:58:22Fiji.

00:58:23It felt like

00:58:24the experts

00:58:24had found me

00:58:25someone who

00:58:25aligned with

00:58:26me in so

00:58:27many ways.

00:58:27We could

00:58:28talk and

00:58:28laugh for

00:58:29hours.

00:58:32It was

00:58:32also where

00:58:34we had our

00:58:34first stumbling

00:58:35block.

00:58:35You accused

00:58:36me of

00:58:36looking at

00:58:37another

00:58:37woman.

00:58:39I

00:58:40felt like

00:58:41you were

00:58:41seeking out

00:58:42a

00:58:42negative,

00:58:44but I

00:58:44realized your

00:58:45insecurities

00:58:46were at

00:58:46play and

00:58:47realized how

00:58:47important it

00:58:48was to

00:58:48reassure you.

00:58:50Moving

00:58:50through the

00:58:51experiment,

00:58:51we struggled

00:58:52aligning on

00:58:52intimacy.

00:58:54It took me

00:58:54longer to

00:58:55find that

00:58:55spark, but

00:58:56through that,

00:58:57I was so

00:58:57proud of the

00:58:58way you

00:58:59and I

00:58:59dived head

00:58:59first into

00:59:00intimacy

00:59:00week.

00:59:02And I

00:59:02have to

00:59:02say, the

00:59:03night we

00:59:03painted each

00:59:04other's

00:59:04bodies was

00:59:04one of my

00:59:05favorite nights

00:59:05of the

00:59:06experiment.

00:59:06It brought

00:59:07out an

00:59:08emotional

00:59:08side of

00:59:08me that

00:59:09I didn't

00:59:09even know

00:59:09was there

00:59:10and attraction

00:59:11grew.

00:59:12I was so

00:59:13glad I stuck

00:59:14around and I

00:59:14thank you for

00:59:15that.

00:59:18We spent

00:59:19the next few

00:59:20weeks rarely

00:59:20getting to

00:59:21know each

00:59:21other,

00:59:21peeling back

00:59:22the layers,

00:59:24laughing non-stop

00:59:24and feeling

00:59:25more and more

00:59:25comfortable around

00:59:26one another.

00:59:27It started to

00:59:28feel like we

00:59:28were building

00:59:29something really

00:59:29special.

00:59:32Then at the

00:59:32third dinner

00:59:33party, I saw

00:59:34a different

00:59:34side of you.

00:59:36You were

00:59:37on the

00:59:37attack.

00:59:38You were

00:59:38vulgar.

00:59:39It seemed

00:59:40like you

00:59:40were seeking

00:59:40out drama.

00:59:41I will

00:59:42admit, I

00:59:43was embarrassed

00:59:44and uncomfortable.

00:59:45I questioned

00:59:46everything and

00:59:47whether this

00:59:47was the

00:59:48relationship I

00:59:48wanted.

00:59:50But still, I

00:59:51chose to

00:59:51stand by

00:59:52your side.

00:59:52I knew

00:59:53that we

00:59:53had so

00:59:53many good

00:59:54qualities worth

00:59:54fighting for.

00:59:57I was so

00:59:58proud of the

00:59:58way that you

01:00:00worked on

01:00:00yourself after

01:00:01that dinner

01:00:01party.

01:00:02You were

01:00:02kind, you

01:00:03were honest,

01:00:03and you

01:00:03made a real

01:00:04effort to

01:00:04make amends

01:00:05with everyone

01:00:05in the group

01:00:06that you

01:00:06had hurt.

01:00:09From there,

01:00:09we went from

01:00:10strength to

01:00:10strength.

01:00:11We had

01:00:11each other's

01:00:12backs, and

01:00:12everything felt

01:00:13right.

01:00:14You told me

01:00:14you loved me,

01:00:15but although I

01:00:16couldn't say it

01:00:16back in that

01:00:17moment, it

01:00:18didn't scare me

01:00:18away.

01:00:19It truly meant

01:00:20the world to me

01:00:20to hear how you

01:00:21were feeling in

01:00:22that moment.

01:00:24Going to

01:00:25Adelaide and

01:00:25seeing you in

01:00:26your home with

01:00:26your beautiful

01:00:27dog, Coco,

01:00:28showed me an

01:00:29even softer

01:00:30side of you.

01:00:30I could see

01:00:31us living

01:00:32together in

01:00:32Adelaide as

01:00:33a couple.

01:00:35It felt like

01:00:36everything was

01:00:37falling into

01:00:37place, and I

01:00:38felt excited for

01:00:39what our future

01:00:40could be.

01:00:43Then on the

01:00:44final night in

01:00:45Adelaide, I

01:00:45cracked a joke

01:00:46that landed

01:00:47wrong.

01:00:49In hindsight,

01:00:50perhaps I

01:00:50shouldn't have

01:00:51made that joke,

01:00:51and for that,

01:00:52I apologise

01:00:52again.

01:00:53Oh, babe.

01:00:54But you

01:00:55couldn't let

01:00:55it go.

01:00:56Rarely

01:00:56highlighted to

01:00:57me how our

01:00:58fight styles

01:00:59didn't align.

01:01:01Suddenly, all

01:01:02of the good

01:01:02energy from

01:01:03Adelaide disappeared

01:01:04and put major

01:01:05doubts into my

01:01:05head as to

01:01:06whether the

01:01:07move to

01:01:07Adelaide would

01:01:07be smart,

01:01:08because if

01:01:09these things

01:01:09were to happen

01:01:10outside the

01:01:10experiment, it

01:01:11would make me

01:01:12feel more

01:01:12isolated than

01:01:13ever.

01:01:15At the final

01:01:16task where we

01:01:17met our

01:01:18alternative matches,

01:01:19I approached

01:01:20it in a

01:01:20respectful manner.

01:01:21However, when

01:01:22I watched the

01:01:23video, I

01:01:24back of you,

01:01:24you ridiculed

01:01:25me for the

01:01:25shirt I was

01:01:26wearing and

01:01:28said that I'm

01:01:28not intimate

01:01:29enough with

01:01:29you in a

01:01:30vulgar way to

01:01:31a group of

01:01:32males that

01:01:32were strangers.

01:01:35You told me

01:01:36after the

01:01:36task that

01:01:37Gia's date

01:01:37basically forced

01:01:38you to take

01:01:38his number,

01:01:39but watching

01:01:40the video back,

01:01:41I saw that

01:01:41was a complete

01:01:42lie.

01:01:45When I

01:01:46tried to

01:01:46bring this

01:01:46up with you

01:01:47in a calm

01:01:48and respectful

01:01:48manner, I

01:01:49was met

01:01:49with conflict

01:01:50and you

01:01:50storming out.

01:01:51It was a

01:01:52stark reminder

01:01:53that our

01:01:53fight styles

01:01:54don't match

01:01:55in important

01:01:55discussions.

01:01:58I've always

01:01:59said that I

01:01:59want to start

01:02:00thinking about

01:02:00having kids

01:02:01soon.

01:02:01And when I

01:02:02think of

01:02:02bringing kids

01:02:03into the

01:02:03world, I

01:02:04want to bring

01:02:04kids into a

01:02:05stable relationship

01:02:06and a stable

01:02:07loving home,

01:02:08the same as I

01:02:09had when I

01:02:09was a child.

01:02:12Stepping away

01:02:13from the

01:02:13experiment in the

01:02:14last week, I

01:02:14rarely thought

01:02:15about how I

01:02:16felt having

01:02:17space on my

01:02:17own again.

01:02:19and as much

01:02:20as it breaks

01:02:20my heart to

01:02:21say this, I

01:02:23felt a weight

01:02:23come off my

01:02:24shoulders,

01:02:25particularly at

01:02:25a time where

01:02:26I knew I

01:02:27should have

01:02:27been missing

01:02:27you.

01:02:31I believe

01:02:31you can have

01:02:32multiple soul

01:02:32mates in

01:02:33life, some

01:02:34who are your

01:02:35best friends

01:02:35and some

01:02:35who are your

01:02:36lovers.

01:02:37Beck, I

01:02:37believe you're

01:02:38my soul

01:02:38mate as a

01:02:39friend, but

01:02:39I've come

01:02:40to realise

01:02:41there's doubt

01:02:41in my mind

01:02:42that if you

01:02:42are my soul

01:02:43mate as a

01:02:43lover.

01:02:50It's not

01:02:50only, oh I'm

01:02:51going to put

01:02:51you with

01:02:51the boys, it's

01:02:52like oh now

01:02:52I've got drinks

01:02:52for the boys,

01:02:53now I've got

01:02:54whatever with

01:02:55the boys.

01:02:55I'm not sure

01:02:55where I fit in

01:02:56that.

01:02:56Okay, it's

01:02:57making sense.

01:02:58It's not the

01:02:58organised sport,

01:02:59it's that do you

01:03:00even have time

01:03:01to see me?

01:03:02Everything's for

01:03:02the boys.

01:03:03I'm like I

01:03:03think you might

01:03:03want to date

01:03:04the boys.

01:03:05Yeah, actually.

01:03:06Another ick is

01:03:07like the guy

01:03:07for sure needs

01:03:09to be over six

01:03:09foot.

01:03:09So you're not

01:03:10a short king?

01:03:11No, I don't

01:03:11like a short

01:03:12king.

01:03:12I'm obviously

01:03:13incredibly short

01:03:14but yeah, I

01:03:14too like a

01:03:15tall guy.

01:03:16What's your

01:03:16cut off?

01:03:17Do you have

01:03:17a cut off?

01:03:18I'm sorry if

01:03:18you're close to

01:03:19my heart.

01:03:20No, but I

01:03:20don't, I mean

01:03:20being close to

01:03:21your heart would

01:03:21be pretty hard.

01:03:22But like guys

01:03:23for my heart,

01:03:24I'm just like I

01:03:25don't want to

01:03:25look at you in

01:03:25the eye.

01:03:26You know what

01:03:26I mean?

01:03:27Like I don't

01:03:27want to be

01:03:27looking up.

01:03:28Yeah.

01:03:29That's a vibe.

01:03:29Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:03:40I've always said

01:03:41that I want to

01:03:41start thinking

01:03:42about having

01:03:42kids soon

01:03:43and when I

01:03:44think of

01:03:44bringing kids

01:03:45into the world

01:03:45I want to

01:03:46bring kids

01:03:47into a stable

01:03:47relationship

01:03:48and a stable

01:03:49loving home

01:03:50the same as

01:03:51I had when

01:03:51I was a child.

01:03:53Stepping away

01:03:54from the experiment

01:03:55in the last week

01:03:56I rarely thought

01:03:56about how I felt

01:03:58having space

01:03:58on my own again

01:04:01and as much

01:04:01as it breaks

01:04:02my heart

01:04:02to say this

01:04:03I felt a weight

01:04:04come off my

01:04:04shoulders

01:04:05particularly at a

01:04:06time where I

01:04:07knew I should

01:04:07have been missing

01:04:11I believe you

01:04:12can have

01:04:12multiple soulmates

01:04:13in life

01:04:14some who are

01:04:15your best friends

01:04:15and some who

01:04:16are your lovers

01:04:17Bec I believe

01:04:18you're my soulmate

01:04:19as a friend

01:04:19but I've come to

01:04:20realize there's

01:04:21doubt in my mind

01:04:22that if you

01:04:22are my soulmate

01:04:23as a lover

01:04:26honestly from the

01:04:27bottom of my heart

01:04:27I'm so sorry

01:04:28to do this to you

01:04:29but I can't

01:04:29be your husband

01:04:30anymore

01:04:31I know this

01:04:32might be hard

01:04:33to hear

01:04:34but I think

01:04:35we both

01:04:35deserve a happy

01:04:36relationship

01:04:37and like

01:04:38a healthier one

01:05:05as a friend

01:05:07I don't think

01:05:08nothing more

01:05:13I'm so sorry

01:05:14no

01:05:14Daniel

01:05:17I don't think

01:05:47I don't think

01:05:49I don't think

01:06:27that was

01:06:28real

01:06:30she actually took it

01:06:32the way she took it

01:06:34made it

01:06:34actually worse

01:06:38I'd have actually

01:06:38rather her got angry

01:06:39or something

01:06:40the way she actually

01:06:41took it made it worse

01:06:42because she actually

01:06:43took it like such a

01:06:44lady look

01:06:46if she would have

01:06:46abused me and stuff

01:06:47it would have actually

01:06:48made it so much easier

01:06:49to be honest

01:06:50see like

01:06:51why couldn't she

01:06:51have been like that

01:06:52the whole way

01:06:52through the experiment

01:06:53and stay with her

01:06:55do you know what I mean

01:06:56that's what's so

01:06:57cooked about it

01:06:58like

01:06:58it would have been

01:06:59so much better

01:07:00if she just

01:07:00twatted me one

01:07:13look how

01:07:14flawlessly

01:07:14did she take that

01:07:15why couldn't she

01:07:16have just been like that

01:07:16the whole way

01:07:17through the experiment

01:07:18I'd be with the girl

01:13:40home to

01:13:41I came into

01:13:43this experiment

01:13:44looking for

01:13:44love

01:13:45I definitely

01:13:45found what

01:13:46I've come

01:13:47here for

01:13:47I always thought

01:13:48their vulnerability

01:13:49was a weakness

01:13:50but every single

01:13:51time I've opened

01:13:52up whether it

01:13:53be in front

01:13:53of Stella

01:13:54or the experts

01:13:55I've always

01:13:56been rewarded

01:13:56with like a

01:13:57stronger bond

01:13:58with Stella

01:13:59I asked the

01:14:00question of like

01:14:00alright if we

01:14:01go outside

01:14:01of the experiment

01:14:02how quick

01:14:02would you expect

01:14:03like a proposal

01:14:04or something

01:14:05like that

01:14:05just to like

01:14:05fully escalate

01:14:06things and Stella

01:14:07was just like

01:14:08ASAP

01:14:08so it's just

01:14:09kind of like

01:14:09I said the sooner

01:14:10the better

01:14:11the sooner

01:14:11the better

01:14:12this is the

01:14:13start of something

01:14:13pretty special

01:14:15I can't believe

01:14:16I'm walking out

01:14:17with the love

01:14:17of my life

01:14:18in Sydney

01:14:19Stella is

01:14:23as she looks

01:14:25back on her

01:14:25magical journey

01:14:26with Philip

01:14:27I asked the

01:14:29experts to be

01:14:30the love story

01:14:31and I got it

01:14:33my wish got

01:14:34granted

01:14:35quite early on

01:14:37I realised

01:14:37that I am

01:14:38forming strong

01:14:39feelings for

01:14:39Philip

01:14:39and I think

01:14:46to feel

01:14:46that pure

01:14:47unconditional

01:14:48love

01:14:48Philip

01:19:05greatest gift

01:19:06I came here

01:19:07to look for love

01:19:08and what I found

01:19:09profound

01:19:10I found

01:19:11home in you

01:19:12and I cannot

01:19:13wait to build

01:19:14the rest of our

01:19:15life there

01:19:18I love you too

01:19:19thank you

01:19:27Stella

01:19:27what a journey

01:19:29these last

01:19:30three months

01:19:30have been

01:19:32I never

01:19:32expected to

01:19:33fall in love

01:19:35I'd watch

01:19:36friends around

01:19:37me find it

01:19:37and thought

01:19:38maybe it was

01:19:39only reserved

01:19:39for other

01:19:40people

01:19:41but the moment

01:19:42I turned around

01:19:42on our wedding

01:19:43day and saw

01:19:44those piercing

01:19:44blue eyes

01:19:45that smile

01:19:46and your tiny

01:19:47shaking hands

01:19:48I knew my

01:19:49life was about

01:19:49to change

01:19:50your vows

01:19:51showed me

01:19:52your warmth

01:19:52kindness

01:19:53and heart

01:19:54from that

01:19:55moment

01:19:55I felt a

01:19:56connection

01:19:57that's only

01:19:57grown stronger

01:19:58with every

01:19:59day that's

01:19:59passed since

01:20:01on the

01:20:02honeymoon

01:20:02learning about

01:20:03each other

01:20:03sharing values

01:20:05and realising

01:20:06how naturally

01:20:07we fit

01:20:07it all confirmed

01:20:08that what we

01:20:09had was real

01:20:10but it hasn't

01:20:11been all smooth

01:20:12sailing

01:20:14I told you

01:20:15I loved you

01:20:16I'll never forget

01:20:17that simple

01:20:18perfect moment

01:20:18I hadn't said

01:20:20I loved you

01:20:20in years

01:20:20and I meant

01:20:21it with

01:20:22absolute

01:20:22certainty

01:20:24when you

01:20:24pulled back

01:20:25I struggled

01:20:26wondering if

01:20:27maybe I

01:20:27wasn't

01:20:27wasn't enough

01:20:30I felt

01:20:31helpless

01:20:31unsure

01:20:32of what

01:20:32more I

01:20:33could do

01:20:33to convince

01:20:34you that

01:20:34this was

01:20:35real

01:20:35but when

01:20:36in love

01:20:37with me

01:20:40love
