00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,440
It just came out.
690
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:51,720
I need a tissue.
691
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,000
Which bit made you cry?
692
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,280
It's just really thoughtful.
693
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,240
It was sweet.
694
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,440
No-one's ever done that
for me, so...
695
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:03,800
I feel really happy.
696
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,360
It kind of showed me
that he was, you know,
697
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,680
obviously thinking about this
quite a lot, which I appreciate.
698
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,800
Like, it's just showing me
that he wants to make it work,
699
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,200
and he wants to try and make these
last days the best, if not better,
700
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,760
than possible,
so I'm inclined to believe that.
701
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,040
Bit of work.
702
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,120
Hopefully, it'll sound good.
703
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,160
What's the name of the song,
Stay or Leave?
704
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,240
Well, and then it turned into
the chorus,
705
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,840
I just started saying,
"Thank you, Ellie."
706
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,120
I can't even remember the song.
707
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,800
I just...
I don't...
708
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,320
If I sing it and play it again,
it'll come out different again.
709
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,560
I haven't recorded it, I just...
710
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,680
That's really nice, thank you.
It's just impulsive.
711
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,080
I do like Ben.
712
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,920
It's pretty obvious that
I have genuine feelings for him,
713
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,600
so it's good that it's finally
getting a bit more consistent.
714
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,040
It makes me hopeful for our future.
715
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,480
Yeah.
716
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,520
I know.
717
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:05,760
Coming up...
718
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,200
Ben's ballad backfires.
719
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,320
TRISTAN: Your dad,
my mum coming down.
720
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,320
It's Cassandra and Tristan's turn
to put their relationship
721
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:40,080
under the spotlight, and are meeting
up with Tristan's mum, Jolan...
722
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,360
Mum!
Hi!
723
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:43,560
Don't you look beautiful.
724
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,240
..and Cassandra's dad, Moddy.
725
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,480
Moddy!
Yeah!
726
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,920
Love, love, love Moddy.
727
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,680
The best father-in-law
anyone could ask for.
728
00:34:54,720 --> 00:34:57,080
Oh!
It's good to see ya, good to see ya.
729
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,800
At the wedding, we connected.
730
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,080
We're gonna become best friends
in no time.
731
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:03,840
Yeah, best friends in no time.
You're gonna be fine.
732
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,280
He was so funny.
733
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:11,280
Tristan, if she causes you trouble,
please don't come to me.
734
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,400
(LAUGHTER, CLAPPING)
735
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,440
And, Cassie, this is serious now.
736
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:19,840
If he gives you trouble...
737
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:22,160
..call her.
738
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,000
(LAUGHTER)
739
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,560
Mic drop.
740
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,320
(LAUGHTER AND CHEERING)
741
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,200
Oh!
742
00:35:31,240 --> 00:35:32,720
Hi!
743
00:35:33,720 --> 00:35:34,880
Married.
744
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,480
It's been two months
since my daughter got married.
745
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,160
I think they were
off to a good start,
746
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,720
so I'm just hoping that
they've built up on that.
747
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,120
She can't hide much from me.
748
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,320
I've known her for 30 years.
749
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,800
I can pick up on body language,
you know?
750
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:53,800
I am nosy.
751
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,480
I gotta be.
752
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,600
My dad always gets the truth,
753
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,520
the whole truth and nothing
but the truth out of me.
754
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,280
And, you know, the truth is
Tristan and I have been rocky.
755
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,760
Are we OK?
756
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,120
Yeah.
757
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,840
I just think, lately,
we've just been in a bit of a rut.
758
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,560
The couple have really struggled
759
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,600
to take their relationship
out of first gear...
760
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,960
Nothing's going on
and that's the problem,
761
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,360
and I'm just frustrated
because I need more intimacy.
762
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:32,240
..with Tristan's deep insecurities
surfacing throughout the experiment.
763
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,760
The thought that you aren't
attracted to me scares me.
764
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,560
Through our journey so far,
765
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,600
you understand I was very overweight
during school.
766
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:40,920
For a long time, I always thought
767
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,040
that the only way a girl would
love me is if I had a six-pack.
768
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,080
When I would approach them
or ask them out,
769
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,320
they would reject me and also
they'd laugh and make fun of me.
770
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,880
This made me feel worthless.
771
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,880
I want you to know
I am attracted to you.
772
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,000
Tristan, is there a possibility
773
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:01,000
that this is you
getting in your own head?
774
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,000
She's shown you
she really likes you.
775
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,360
I know.
Do you hear that?
776
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,520
Yes, I do.
777
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,160
And, today, the pair are hoping
778
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,080
their parents can provide
some much-needed words of wisdom.
779
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,920
Toast to families reuniting.
JOLAN: Families.
780
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,200
How is it going?
781
00:37:20,240 --> 00:37:22,880
Moddy, you've got
an amazing human being here.
782
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,800
I call her perfect human Cass.
She's the best person on the planet.
783
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,800
You've raised a good daughter there,
Moddy. You've done well.
784
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:30,760
We've had a lot of highlights.
785
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,200
We've had a couple of rocky times.
786
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,160
We're working through it,
so...which is good.
787
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,200
OK.
788
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,080
Moddy, you're being awfully quiet.
789
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:41,680
Oh, he's listening.
Do you have any questions?
790
00:37:41,720 --> 00:37:44,480
He's listening intently.
I'm watching your body language.
791
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,360
Yeah, fair, fair, fair, fair.
792
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:48,520
And what you are hiding.
793
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:49,920
(TRISTAN AND CASS LAUGH)
794
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,480
You can ask us whatever you want.
We're pretty open books.
795
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,440
(CASS LAUGHS)
796
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:10,480
He's being cheeky.
797
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,360
Moddy turns around and asks
the hardest-hitting question.
798
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:16,840
You don't have to answer...
799
00:38:18,240 --> 00:38:20,440
Completely caught me off guard,
you know?
800
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:21,600
Here we go.
801
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,000
This is a bit weird
telling our parents this,
802
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,400
but I do find her attractive
and stuff like that.
803
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,120
We just kind of got stuck
in the friendship zone,
804
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,320
and that's kind of where
we're, like, kind of...
805
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,000
Trying to get out of that.
Getting out of that.
806
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,600
When you're stuck in the friendship
zone, why?
807
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,120
I was struggling to make the first
move 'cause I get really nervous.
808
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,120
Why?
809
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,200
Remember when I was back at school
and I was really fat?
810
00:38:44,240 --> 00:38:46,920
I used to ask out girls and I used
to get made fun and laughed of.
811
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,520
Yes.
Yeah.
812
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,880
And I'm struggling a lot on just,
kind of, getting to that level.
813
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,720
You just really lack
self-confidence.
814
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,440
Tristan, sometimes, I think
you have imposter syndrome
815
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,840
where you think you don't
deserve what you've got.
816
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,200
I continuously say to Tristan,
"Give yourself a break.
817
00:39:06,240 --> 00:39:08,320
"You're actually
a really wonderful person."
818
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,040
Always so hard on yourself.
819
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,480
Please, just have some faith
in yourself.
820
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,040
I'm working on it.
Right.
821
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:16,280
It just takes some time.
822
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,360
And it's obviously hard
for Cassandra.
823
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:20,520
Yeah.
824
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:25,120
I'm a big-time romantic, so I was
hoping for sparks and fairy-tales
825
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,560
and chemistry and everything,
that's what I was hoping for.
826
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,360
Tristan is, like,
the most thoughtful,
827
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,200
considerous, kindest person
I've ever met.
828
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,880
Other than the intimacy,
he's everything I want in a man.
829
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,600
Young people, you are too much
in a hurry to get there.
830
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,880
Yeah, yeah.
You're missing on the journey.
831
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,080
Some people, you know,
they come together
832
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,080
and they go, psh, like a soft drink.
833
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,560
But it doesn't last.
Psh!
834
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:51,640
But it doesn't last.
835
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,240
It's like, no,
lasting things take time.
836
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:59,000
You know, fire, you've gotta
put logs of wood on the fire
837
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,720
and the heat goes up and up
and fills the whole house
838
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,080
'cause you're putting
one more log on the fire.
839
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,640
I know what it takes to build a
really good relationship that lasts.
840
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:15,200
I was with her mother for 30 years,
and then I put so many logs in...
841
00:40:15,240 --> 00:40:17,880
(ALL LAUGH)
842
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,040
The intention is there for both
of them to be in this relationship.
843
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,200
All they need
is a little bit more patience.
844
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:27,240
It's as simple as that, you know,
845
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,320
especially Tristan -
put in more logs.
846
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,880
I'm starting to see maturity and the
relationship maturing, you know?
847
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:36,880
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
848
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,120
Part of the reason why I've
been shooting myself in the foot
849
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,440
is that, like, I really like Cass,
850
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,320
and I'm starting to really
invest myself into her, you know?
851
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,400
I've never been this vulnerable
with anyone before,
852
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,640
so I'm accepting that
I've gotta rev it up a bit, as well,
853
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,520
and focus on affection.
854
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,640
Get out of your comfort zone,
855
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,760
really, really try hard on this
because this is the make or break.
856
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,680
OK, one more cheers, everyone.
Cheers, guys, good hustle.
857
00:40:59,720 --> 00:41:01,440
It's wonderful seeing you.
Family reunion lunch.

00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:42,120
Drea definitely has a lot of baggage
from past relationships.
1028
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,960
Like, I know
she ended up with somebody
1029
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,840
who didn't love her enough
and didn't treat her well.
1030
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:56,360
And so, the minute something
comes up, she will react.
1031
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,680
She will shut down.
1032
00:51:59,960 --> 00:52:04,240
She will retreat
if she's not feeling respected.
1033
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,600
And even if you're not
intending that 'cause I don't...
1034
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:09,960
I think you're a nice guy.
1035
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:16,040
You seem like a really cool guy,
and you seem like you are very kind.
1036
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:20,880
But she's coming in
with all that baggage.
1037
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,040
It's not easy.
1038
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:27,760
I can see where he's coming from.
1039
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,040
I know that he's probably feeling
a bit rejected
1040
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:31,600
and that she's quite distant
at the moment.
1041
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:38,320
But I can also see why
Drea has definitely retreated a bit,
1042
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,040
and that, unfortunately,
1043
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:44,200
is gonna take her some time to come
back out of that and then try again.
1044
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,280
I told you, didn't I, I said,
1045
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:52,600
Richie's been nothing but kind
and beautiful to me.
1046
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:53,800
And that's why...
1047
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,560
And I told you I like him more
because of it, so...
1048
00:52:57,600 --> 00:52:59,520
Because I start to think
I am that person,
1049
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:01,680
that's what happens,
I'm a bad guy...
1050
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,520
You are not.
And that's where I go.
1051

in his happy little world,

He, um...
1056

He kicks bottles around
and he just plays,

have to go through that,

but, you know, my dad is not her ex.
1072

He's super, super kind
and he is patient,

like that, especially not her.

1192
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,520
You know, 'cause I was hoping
to find love,
1193
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,840
and that turned out a (BLEEP) joke.
1194
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,280
No, I'm not coming back from this.
1195
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:38,680
I'm not doing it to myself anymore.
I'm so done.
1196
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,520
I literally have...
1197
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:46,960
I'd rather be single
than spend another night with Ben.
1198
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,720
Boys want attention, men want
respect and legends don't give a..
1199
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:00,160
VOICEOVER: Egos.
1200
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:01,720
My relationship is near perfect.
1201
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:02,920
Call me in 3 years.
1202
01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:04,600
VOICEOVER:..are about..
1203
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:08,080
Watch it, cos I'll be all over you
like a pitbull on a poodle.
1204
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:09,640
VOICEOVER:..To clash.
1205
01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:10,800
That's why I'm asking the question.
1206
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:14,120
You've always been a grandstander.
(THUMPS TABLE) (GUESTS GASP)
1207
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,600
Cowboys out with their guns.
(IMITATES BULLETS)
1208
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,680
VOICEOVER: This dinner party..
1209
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:22,000
I'm in this with all my heart.
Tim is an awesome person.
1210
01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:23,600
Yeah we've heard it, we've heard it.
1211
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,200
One minutes, I haven't finished.
1212
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,800
VOICEOVER:..pulls no punches.
1213
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:32,320
There's a food chain here and you
are not at the top. Shut up.
1214
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,280
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
1215
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,160
The truth is..
It is what?
1216
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:39,080
She's completely blind-sided.
1217
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,000
It was like an absolute car crash
in slow motion.
1218
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,880
And it was like..
(GASPS INTERMITTENTLY).
