[ "Rock-a-bye Baby" plays ]

**

- Last night on "Love Island USA"...

[ Babies crying ]

What the fuck?

- * Hey there, baby, what you think you doin'? *

- ...the islanders had some unplanned visitors.

* Hey there, baby *

Some thrived...

- It's been a good day. I think she's a good mother.

...some flopped.

- Your mama's gonna kill me. Please, please.

- I think we're gonna need parenting courses.

Chris, I don't like that color!

- Shut up! - Excuse me?!

* I can give you a chance *

- A kiss. - Right now?

- Yeah. - You want to --

**

- At the end of the day, cries turned into smiles...

* A starlit supper *

- This brought me back to, like, a childhood memory.

- Mm-hmm. - Thank you.

- You're welcome. - ...and one couple...

- [ Cellphone chimes ] - [ Gasps ]

* Hey there, baby *

- What? - "Islanders, please choose

one couple to spend a private night together."

- Amaya and Bryan! - Yes!

- Oh, my God! - [ Screams ]

- ...scored a trip to the Hideaway.

- * 'Cause I dreamed that, baby, I'd find you *

* 'Cause I dreamed of saying "I do" *

* Oh-oh, hey there, baby *

Tonight...

Oh, my God!

...Hideaway hijinx...

[ Laughter ]

Boys in! Boys in! Boys in!

...the boys play ball...

- Oh, my God! - Yeah!

[ Cellphone chimes ]

- [ Gasps ] - No.

- "Islanders, please gather at the fire pit immediately."

...and one couple...

gets benched by America.

Oh, my God.

**

- * I had a dream we were floating on a cloud *

* It felt so real, I could almost touch the stars *

Welcome to "Love Island USA."

En route to the Hideaway,

Amaya looks like she's walking down the runway

in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show...

and Bryan looks like he's walking down the hallway

to meet his DoorDash driver.

[ Gasps ]

- Oh, shit. - Oh...my...God.

- * Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh *

* Ooh-ooh-ooh *

- [ Squeals ] - [ Laughs ]

- This is so cute. - This shit is crazy.

- The hot tub! - [ Gasps ]

Oh, my God!

- This is too fucking fire. - Yeah, I like it.

- Look at this! Aah! - [ Laughs ]

And it's bouncy!

Oh, my God!

Look! It matches with my heels!

It matches with your heels!

[ Laughter ]

- Aah! I'm excited. - Oh, my God.

- Hell yeah. I love it. Damn. You look good.

I love it. Thank you.

Come here.

* And I feel your body near *

* I feel your body here *

* I feel your body close *

Wait. Where's the cold bottle?

[ Laughter ]

- Open up! - That's crazy!

[ Laughter ]

**

* Heat on the skin *

It tastes good.

* Closing in *

* This fight, I never win *

[ Bottle hisses ]

Aah!

[ Laughter ]

- I was like, "What the fuck is that?"

Early in a relationship,

it's important to take things slow.

Stick with questions like...

What are your hobbies?

What's your favorite color? And...

- Do you have, like, wedding plans

or, like, things that you want to do at your wedding?

You know what I'm saying? Like, anything.

- I want everybody to come, that comes to my wedding,

gets a cowboy hat with, you know, their initials on it.

Like, you know, the husband and the wife,

their couple initials on their hat.

Like, they can just do whatever and bring whatever on the hat.

So everybody at our wedding will have a cowboy hat.

I like that.

- What about you? Do -- Do you want to have a wedding?

'Cause I know some girls don't even want to have a wedding.

They just want to go to the courthouse and boom.

No. I need a wedding.

- Okay. [ Laughter ]

I will be having a wedding,

and it will be fucking extravagant.

- I know you thought about this, so go ahead and break it down.

[ Laughs ]

- Give me -- Give me the P's and Q's.

I want it to be beautiful.

You got a color scheme?

Light pink?

Um, I like light pink.

You know how...

...like, some brides will do,

like, this photo book for their husband

of, like, cute, sexy lingerie pictures?

I want to do one of those things.

[ Laughs ]

I mean...

I've been thinking about it for the past days now

about being closed off for Clarke.

I'm at that point now where it's just like -- we're super close.

I feel like I've been knowing her for years.

[ Laughs ]

Mmm!

- Up on the terrace, Chris is feeling a little low,

which is impressive for a man who's 6'8".

How are you?

- Good. - Are you tired?

- No. - You're so quiet today.

- Yeah, my mood is just, like, mellow right now, so...

- Oh. What's wrong? - No. Just mellow.

- Mellow? - Yeah.

- Every single response is, "Yeah," "Mm-hmm," "Yeah."

What's wrong?

Just mellow.

- What, are you thinking about something?

- No. - Are you sure?

Yeah.

I still feel the same about you. So...

- Yeah. - I do.

- Aww. You like me? - Nah.

- No? Okay then. - I like you a lot.

- Wow. Hold on. I'm gonna go throw up really quick.

Wait a second.

You can throw up in my mouth.

- Ew! You're nasty as fuck! Don't ever say that.

- Don't tell me what I can't say.

- I just did. - Well, don't do that no more.

Well, I just did.

Um...

But, yeah, that was funny.

Alright.

Ah, shit.

- Uh, Amaya, just before you raise a toast,

quick question --

what are those things with four legs

that you sit on around a table?

- Cheers to us. - Cheers.

To a night in the Hideaway.

To a night in the Hideaway.

Our first night in the Hideaway.

- * I'm-a write it down *

* So I can send it to you in a letter *

**

- I really do love the fact that they did pick us, you know?

- Yeah. No. I'm happy as hell they picked us.

- They see the strong connection we had.

- Yeah. This is crazy, though, right?

- I know. It's so beautiful. Like, I am a big outdoors girl.

Especially for, like, little, cute romantic moments like this.

Yeah.

**

- Have you ever been, like, on a vacation

with, like, a romantic interest before?

- Uh, my ex. Yeah. - Okay. Nice.

- Yeah. You? - Yeah.

[ Laughter ]

Our first vacation.

[ Laughter ]

- Now we about to make you for real.

* I've been so lucky *

* And my baby found me *

**

* Ahh *

- Over in the Villa, the islanders

are getting ready for bed,

and, weirdly, Nic is singing my dog's favorite song.

- * Eat that kitty, eat that kitty *

* Eat that kitty in the Hideaway *

I miss my baby.

I miss my baby daddy.

- Aah! - Aah!

I had a chat with Chris.

He was dead tired the whole time.

That fucking parenting shit had him done.

- Really? - Yeah! He was tired as fuck!

- Like, earlier today when we --

When we were holding the baby, I was like, "Give me a kiss."

She's, like, looking around everywhere,

making sure nobody's around.

I'm like, "Okay. You know what? Like, don't even worry about it."

- Nah. - Bro, swear to God.

- She doesn't kiss you outside of a challenge?

- Fuck, no. - What?

- Wait. Time-out.

Didn't you kiss her outside a challenge in the --

- In the Speakeasy, but nobody was around.

**

I'm gonna be honest with y'all.

When I first walked in, I did not think

I was gonna get this close to anybody.

Shit.

I agree with that statement right there, Pepe.

- * Lookin' like a cowgirl, let me saddle up, hmm *

Move. I gotta move this.

- [ Laughter ] - Oh, no!

- * One time, what it's made for *

* Calling from the other side, she said giddy-up *

* Girl, don't bring me back down if you bring it up *

* The Hideaway *

* We're in the Hideaway *

**

- * Ooh, giddy-up *

* Mm, giddy-up *

* Mm, giddy-up *

**

- * Mm, giddy-up * - [ Moans ]

**

- Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

Amaya and Bryan have woken up with bite marks

all over their bodies.

Well, I did tell them to use protection.

I mean, no bug spray in Fiji.

This was always gonna happen.

I slept great.

What about you?

[ Speaking indistinctly ] [ Both laugh ]

- * Ah, love every day like it's the weekend *

- Wake up. [ Laughs ] Wakey, wakey.

- * There ain't nothing like this feeling *

* Live every moment like it's godsent *

- * It don't get better than this *

* It don't get better than this *

* Better than this *

- * It don't get better than this *

* It don't get better than this *

- Another day in paradise. - That part. That part.

What's up, man?

- How you doing? - Good.

- You and Iris just waking up, just chipper.

- I like to see all the boys in the kitchen.

I never have seen so many boys, like, wake up

and go straight to the kitchen.

- * So truth or dare, what are we waiting for? *

* There's no reward for staying *

[ Laughs ] Wow.

- * The world could be our playground if we want *

* So let's play some more *

- How y'all feel Bryan did last night, man?

- I think he went under a minute fifteen.

I think he went under two.

- * Love every day like it's the weekend *

- My favorite part from last night was the Jacuzzi.

- Yeah. [ Laughs ]

You know what my favorite part was.

- * 'Cause there ain't nothing like this feeling *

- I'm happy as fuck. I ain't gonna lie.

- That was a cute-ass date she planned for you.

Yeah.

She went above and beyond to make me feel like I was at home.

And I think that's someone who's worthy.

- Aww! Amaya is so comfortable with Bryan

that she already speaks him with the energy of a woman

leaving a nine-minute voice memo for her best friend

from the back of an Uber.

- This is just so beautiful, and I'm just so thankful,

and I'm just happy

that our connection is just going so strong.

- Yeah. - And that not only do I see you

as a romantic interest,

but, like, I do see you as one of my best friends, too.

I feel the same.

Just two misunderstood people understanding each other.

- Right. - [ Laughs ]

I feel like I can hear them.

You can for sure.

- Amaya finna be so happy. I cannot wait

- till she tells us what happened. - I know.

- Y'all didn't feel that earthquake last night?

[ Laughter ]

Let's get out of here.

Bye, Hideaway.

[ All screaming ]

- How was it? - It was amazing.

[ Laughter ]

- Bryan, you're walking different, bro.

I feel lighter.

- She's glowing. - You're glowing today.

- I can't with y'all. - She's glowing.

Huge smile on your face.

- My dog. - My brother.

- Sit your ass down. - [ Laughs ]

- We missed you. - We missed you.

- It was so quiet. - The Villa was quiet, girl.

I need to know right now.

- We got in the Jacuzzi for a little bit,

and then after that, we got right on the bed, bro.

[ Laughter ]

For sure. Yeah. It was great, bro.

Like, just chopped it up for mad long.

Just, like, conversations you can't really have here.

- Yeah. - It was definitely dope, bro.

Like, we were hugging the whole time.

Like, just kissing.

I'd do that like a thousand times over, bro.

I had a great time.

- That's so sick, bro. I'm so happy for you.

- Thank you, bro. Yeah.

- What was your favorite part about going to the Hideaway?

- I mean, the obvious, bro. - [ Laughs ]

- It felt like I lost my virginity.

The journey was beautiful. [ Laughter ]

I had a great fucking night at the Hideaway with Amaya.

I definitely feel closer to her.

We took a step in our connection and it's been smiles ever since.

- It was a really great, intimate time.

We first went into the Jacuzzi.

The room is gorgeous, by the way.

What else happened?

- We definitely really went on our journey.

- Uh-huh. - And it was a great one.

- Okay. [ Laughter and cheering ]

- The journey was great. - There you go.

- How many journeys did you go on?

- Like two. - Okay!

- Back to back or what, or just, like, spread apart?

- It was back to back. [ All screaming ]

- Wait. Eat that kitty. Eat that kitty.

- Yeah. Did he -- Did he listen to it?

Yes.

[ All screaming ]

- * Eat that kitty, eat that kitty *

* Eat that kitty in the Hideaway *

- It was magical, it was majestic,

it was beautiful,

and I'm so happy to be understood by somebody

that I am coupled up with. Finally!

Like, finally! Shit!

That was really amazing.

And we're thankful for every one of you guys for doing that.

- We love you guys. - I love this for you.

- I love it. I love it. - We love you.

- Love you so much. - Thank you.

- Ace and Chelley failed the baby challenge,

but luckily it was only pretend.

In the real world when parents fail a baby challenge,

they end up with a serial killer, or worse, a podcaster.

[ Sighs ]

- Are y'all ready to be mothers after yesterday?

- I'm ready. I just need to have the right partner.

- After yesterday, that didn't change your mind?

- No. I actually want a set of twins.

It's definitely in my cards.

- I bet he was struggling. - Who? Ace?

- He was stressed the fuck out. - He was stressing himself out.

- You were stressing him out. - I?

- Every time I look up, y'all are arguing, bro.

I was like, "Bro, my kid can't be around this arguing."

You argue in front of the kids. Y'all didn't give a fuck.

[ Laughter ]

Yo.

- [ Cellphone chimes ] - [ Gasps ]

- I got a text! - Oh, shit.

[ Cheering ]

**

- Let's go! Basketball.

- I've been waiting for this shit!

[ Screaming ]

I am a professional athlete.

I'm gonna show these boys how to play,

how to shoot their shot.

But my team winning, whoever on my team,

that's all I got to say.

- So what are we supposed to do? - Exactly.

Boys' trip.

- Oh, my God. - Yeah!

- Their own little private getaway.

Hell no! What do you mean?

- Chris is a giant compared to all of those motherfuckers.

- Yeah. I mean, he is a pro basketball player.

So is Pepe.

- He'd better fucking show his skills.

- I can just catch and shoot, motherfuckers.

Y'all still losing.

- Look at that stance. - 41% in pro ball.

- Honestly, out of sight, out of mind.

I think we should just enjoy the day.

- Alright. - Alright. You guys ready?

I can literally smell the fear.

I'm in your head rent free. In your head rent free.

- Alright, fellas! - I live in that.

- Who on my team? - Me and Chris.

- Ooh! - Yeah.

- Oh, yeah. - Look how he jumped.

[ All shouting ]

- So, are they playing basketball?

- I think they're playing basketball.

I wish we could watch.

- I'm just hoping whatever team Ace is on, he wins,

because we've been taking some losses.

I'm not gonna lie.

[ All shouting ]

**

- [ Chanting ] Boys in, boys in, boys in, boys in,

boys in, boys in, boys in!

[ Men grunting ]

**

- Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

Spare a thought for Pepe and Chris,

who have been playing professional basketball

for years and the most viewed game of their career

will be on a dating show alongside a dance teacher,

a nurse, and a cowboy.

The teams are Ace, Pepe, and Bryan

versus Chris, Taylor, and Nic.

- Yep, yep, yep. - Let's get it.

- First to 11. - First to 11.

- Ones and twos. - Okay.

- Ones and twos. - Call your own fouls.

- Respect the call. - Respect the call.

- Respect the call. - Check up.

Trying to limit me?

- Oh. - Help. Help, help!

- * Quaking on the ground like bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce *

* Throw it up, throw it up, throw it up, throw it up *

- Whoo! - That's first!

- That's your matchup. That's you.

- Oh, travel. God damn. You didn't even dribble.

- You took two steps back. - I did this.

- That's a travel! - Hold on, hold on.

* Bounce on the switch *

* Bounce on the glitch *

* Show 'em how you bounce with the split *

* Bounce with a trick *

- Hey-ah!

- There's a reason somebody played pro

and somebody didn't.

Oh, God.

That's our ball.

That's our ball.

Hey!

- And one! Stay on the ground!

Jumping the gun.

- Oh! - Hey!

- Another one! Another one!

- Hey, y'all see it? 6'8" gotta post up.

- Oh, my God! Carry! - No, it's not.

Oh! Easy.

* Oh, ah, ah, oh, shit *

* All my ladies in the back with me all legit *

- Okay, look. It's 8-5. Taylor... - You haven't done anything.

- ...Chris, and Nic is up right now.

- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! I need us to lock the fuck in.

I ain't losing to them, bro. Lock in.

- * Throw it up, throw it up, throw it up, throw it up *

* Throw it up, throw it up, throw it up, throw it up *

**

* Bounce *

- Damn. - Yeah, Bryan! Let's go!

**

- You breathing hard as hell. - Check up, little man.

You seem out of shape.

**

Ooh!

- Oh, my God! It's game point. Let's go. Game point.

- Check up. Check up, little man. - Let's go.

- * When I come through, everybody done know *

* Peep my footwork, everybody front row *

- Hands up, Ace. Hands up, Ace.

* Everybody cheese, though *

- * Bounce on the switch * - Oh! Easy!

* Bounce on the glitch *

[ Cheering ]

**

* Bust it down, bust it down, bust it down, bust it down *

- "Love Island USA" proudly presents

the most spectacular failure of the Bechdel test

in television history.

- How do you guys think the boys are doing

with the basketball game?

Who do you guys have your money on?

- I have my money on Ace. - Pepe.

- Pepe. Yeah. - [ Laughs ]

- Okay, you guys. - What?

Would you rather?

- Okay, would you rather couple up with someone

who has stank breath or stank armpits?

- Ooh. - Oh! I don't do stank!

I can't do stink at all.

- But I think I would have to go with the armpits.

- Me too. - Yeah.

- Would you rather have a bad boob job or a bad ass job?

- Boob. - Same.

- A bad ass? Ugh, so many of those in Houston.

It is so many of those in Houston.

- So "I'm tired of seeing it." - Bro.

- You funny. - Yeah, I would do bad boobs.

- For sure. - I already got a bad boob job,

- so I would say that one. - Would you rather date a guy

who only wants you to jerk him off with your feet,

nothing else, and you have to go like this?

[ Laughter ]

- I think I've grabbed a dude's dick with my feet before.

- But you have to do it every time.

Or what?

- Or would you rather only have to use your mouth?

- When I've done it with no hands,

- so I would do it with my mouth. - Feet.

That is way harder than it looks.

- Also, how often though? I think that matters too.

- Twice a day. [ Laughter ]

- This is the thing. [ Laughter continues ]

I get my ab crunches in there too.

**

- * Yeah, back like I never even left *

* Done stepping with a pep *

* Gotta keep it cool, looking forward to the best *

- Yeah, boys. - Oh, shit.

- Go ahead. Give me a cold drink. Cold.

- Oh, damn. Hey. Good game, fellas.

- Good game. - Good game, y'all.

- Who had the most buckets today? - Chris.

This motherfucker 6'8", 250.

- That's sizist bro. [ Laughter ]

- I ain't gonna lie. I'm, like, low-key excited

to go back to the Villa, like...

- I wake up every morning excited to hang out with her.

Things with Iris started off as a friendship,

like a strong friendship, to then get to this point

where it's like that full-circle moment.

- Yeah. - It's that feeling

that you kind of -- you're looking for in here, you know?

- I feel like that's a similar situation to Olandria and I.

- It is. How's that going? - It's good.

I mean, like, I think through this whole process,

it's been like a damn roller coaster.

What if all these problems were meant to be?

And, like, it's coming back to this,

and the physical attraction is growing.

The emotional connection is growing.

I think we're doing everything right.

We're taking our time, but doing it together is the best part.

And I'm happy, bro. I think at this point,

for me it's about taking care of her to the best of my ability.

- Hell yeah, and if you just keep doing the little things for her,

that shit will go a long way,

'cause that's the shit she did appreciate.

- You know, crispy edges around the pancakes.

I make sure those bitches are crispy on the edges.

- Yeah, crispy edges on the pancakes, bro.

- And that's all I want is to make her happy

and just doing it together.

- I feel great in my connection, honestly.

I know at first I felt a little "guilty,"

but, like, now that feeling is, like, slowly, like, leaving,

I don't feel like -- I feel like it feels natural.

- Yeah. - Like the first night,

how we cuddled and it didn't feel weird.

He didn't feel weird about it. I didn't feel weird about it.

- I liked it, you know? - Yeah.

- And it's like, oh, my gosh, is this

a friends-to-lovers type of deal?

- Mm-hmm. - I love it.

- I love it for you. - Like weeks ago you would --

if you would have asked me like what the end of my journey

would have looked like, I would have never thought this at all.

- Yeah. - Yeah. I feel good with Chris.

Honestly, I feel like my favorite thing about our couple

is, like, we communicate so well.

It's the thing where it's like,

okay, I'll communicate something and it's not an argument.

He'll literally just be like, "Oh, okay.

I'll make sure to do that for you.

Okay. Like no problem." And it's great.

I just -- I feel like I'm definitely a lot calmer.

- Yeah. - Since being with him, like.

Yeah.

- I feel like with Chris, I don't feel judged.

I tend to have a lot of high anxiety

in a lot of relationships that I've been in.

And with him, it's just -- it's just easy.

Honestly, I'm really thankful because after this entire

experience, it's nice to finally relax.

Right now, it's like he's so perfect.

I'm just like, "Okay, Huda. Act right.

Like, don't fuck this shit up."

- * Hey, anywhere you wanna go, let's go there *

* Anything you wanna do, I'll do with you *

I feel like with Huda,

I do have a lot of things that I like about her.

Like, especially, we really do have, like, a strong connection

besides, like, the physical things,

but, like, she can be combative and defensive a lot of times.

And I've learned that...

...you can't always be an avoidant,

like, especially when something's bothering you.

If you want something or you want something to change,

like, you kind of got to speak up.

You can't just, like, be quiet about it.

- Just go for it and have that conversation.

Just be open with your heart, honest, respectful.

And sometimes the hardest things you do in life

- are the best things you do. - Right.

I want to be heard, so I got to speak my mind.

- With Clarke, like, the feeling she give me is like...

- Bro. - We see it, bro.

- Yeah, I can see it, for sure. - And that's the thing, bro.

It's, like, I've never been like this.

Like, the type of person that's just, like,

I always want to be around her

and, like, always want to touch her.

- And that's, so not me, bro. - Yeah.

- And for her to bring that side out of me like...

- That's huge. - It's big, bro.

Like, the feeling she give me, like,

I love waking up next to her. I love going to bed next to her.

I love seeing her every single day.

- You're gonna make me cry, bro. [ Laughter ]

- I just love being around her 24/7, bro.

Just, like, her energy she gives and, like, I feel like she can,

like, you know, fit in with my family just perfect.

It's like we talked about the outside world and shit

and how we'll make that work.

And it just sounds like it's just gonna just all flow

- and all go together. - Yeah.

- And so I do want to close things off with her, bro.

Yeah!

Let's go!

[ Laughter ]

- I just -- I just want to talk to the bros, man.

- * You give, give, give me a high *

- So what's your idea looking like?

- So my idea is y'all know how, like,

- she used to cheer and shit? - Yeah.

- I want to do it with, like, all of us do a cheer.

- Oh, easy. - We all -- We all -- We all --

- Give me a "closed"! Give me an "off"!

- [ Laughter ] - It'll be like a C-L--

Like, we'll all spell it out.

That's gonna be fire.

- They can bring Latto in and I ain't even gonna look.

- [ Laughter ] - That's crazy.

- For real, oh, yeah, like... - That's crazy.

I'm so happy for you, dawg.

- I'm really locked in with this girl.

And...she might be the one, man.

* It just may be *

* You make me love you crazy *

**

- Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

Huda says she wants to get into the world of voice work,

and I'm worried for my job.

Apparently, she's an absolute natural,

and she's got some really strong material on Iris's name.

- [ Loudly ] So, for you,

- we got Chelley Belly... - Whoo!

- ...against Iris With the Eyeball!

You guys need to lock the fuck in.

Alright. This is going well! Come on, Iris!

- Whoa! [ Laughs ]

[ Indistinct shouting in distance ]

- Ladies! - Uh-oh.

- Ohh! - Ohh!

Welcome home!

- Shit. - Are you guys okay?

- Why y'all look tore up? - We -- Oh!

- There was a lot on the game, you know?

- What's wrong with you guys? - Come on.

- Put your arm on my shoulder. - What happened?

[ Indistinct conversations ]

- But why are you guys limping? - 'Cause we're hurt.

- All of you guys are limping. - Yeah. We went hard.

- We all got hurt falling on the ground and shit.

- You're lying. - No, not at all.

Yo. Please.

[ Laughter ]

- They're all like, "Unh! I'm hurt.

Oh, my God. I'm sore."

Imagine they got cramps the way we did

when we get our monthly cycle.

Like, God forbid.

- Okay. So what happened?

- I mean, pretty much what happened --

Ace dunked on Chris and we were like, Oh, shit."

- Ace dunked on Chris for real? - Yeah, that's how it started.

And then right after that, we were like, "Okay, Ace.

Relax. Calm down."

He's like, "Nah, Fuck this. I'm going hard."

And he started putting an elbow into everybody's back.

- Everybody. - Elbows.

- Bro, he played prison ball, literally.

- Did you guys bond? - But damn, that was fun.

- Yes. - Oh, yeah.

- How was y'all day? What the hell did y'all do?

I know y'all was bored as hell without us.

- No. We had lots of fun, actually.

This was like we needed the time away from y'all.

- We was having some peaceful times, y'all.

- Just little -- I'm just kidding. - I know I missed Ace.

- I missed Bry-Bry.

- Did you miss me? - Yeah.

- I said that. - Nic. [ Laughs ]

- Why you looking at me like that?

- She's like, "What? This is my face all the time."

[ Laughter ]

- Tonight could be the night Clarke and Taylor

close things off, and I'm not surprised.

I've not seen someone this happy with a Taylor

since mine managed to sew me into my suit pants

the day before my wedding.

I overeat when I'm nervous.

- * Yeah, the roof's about to blow *

- This is Taylor's big night, bro.

- I'm finna use the word "exclusive."

But "exclusive" is too long a word for us to spell out.

Okay, so what we're gonna do is just pull out fucking "Clarke."

- C-L-A-- - That's six letters,

- and it's six people. - * Oh, oh, oh, oh *

* I'm'a let you know *

- Me and Taylor have talked about life on the outside

'cause we would be long distance.

I wouldn't think it would be too big of a problem

'cause I think we have good communication.

* Let you know *

* I wanna see you get down *

- Run down the plan to me one more time.

Do something with a cheer.

- How the hell we supposed to spell out an "R"?

- This and then boom, like a capital R.

[ Laughter ]

- You know, I haven't had that deep

of a talk about it with Chris.

Like, we've talked about, like, things on the outside,

but we haven't talked about us.

* We breaking all the rules *

* We just a bunch of fools *

- We're gonna hit 'em with a "Showtime!"

**

[ Laughter ]

- 5, 6, 7, 8. Ready? Okay!

You and T! You and T!

Do the speech. Do the speech.

* I'm'a let you know *

- Clarke, will you be exclusive with me?

- * Yeah, wanna see you get down *

**

- So, I'm doing a toast today, y'all.

- Okay. Yeah. - Spicy, spicy, spicy.

- I just want to say thank you all

for letting me have a good summer with all y'all.

You know, making good memories with every single one of y'all,

you know, through the ups and downs,

- through everything, you know. - Of course.

- This is friendships for life that we...

- For real. - This is family for life.

- Yeah. You know, I want to say I love all y'all.

- I love you too. - Aww. We love you.

- Cheers, all! - Whoo!

Wait!

I forgot something.

- Oh, my God. That was so aggressive.

Showtime, ladies.

- Wait. What? - Wait. What the hell?

[ Laughter ]

- What is going on? - What is going on?

- I'm so confused. - 5, 6, 7, 8. Ready?

Okay! Give me a C! [ Hands clapping ]

Give me an L! [ Hands clapping ]

Give me an A! [ Hands clapping ]

Give me an R! [ Hands clapping ]

Give me a K! [ Hands clapping ]

Give me an E! [ Laughter ]

* The only one I wanna see *

* T and Duchess, you and T *

* The only one I wanna see *

* T and Duchess, you and T * [ Hands clapping ]

* You and T * [ Hands clapping ]

* You and T * [ Hands clapping ]

* You and T * [ Hands clapping ]

* You and T *

[ Cheers and applause ]

- Aww! - [ Laughing ]

- Bro, you done laughing, bro? - I'm sorry. I'm so giggly.

- I'm sorry. - You done laughing?

- Mm-hmm. - Since the moment I met you

and we had our first conversation,

you know, the sparks just flew.

You know, it was like a dragon, bro.

Conversation was fire. [ Laughter ]

I don't want, you know,

to spend this experience with nobody else but you.

So I want to ask you.

* We got all time, no plans *

* Feels like we're swimming in stars *

- Clarke, will you be exclusive with me?

Yes, of course.

**

**

He is so creative for that.

I'm gonna clap it up for him. [ Laughs ]

- You guys are amazing. - 10 out of 10.

- He wants this to work in the outside world, not just here.

And I love that for me and for him and for us.

- I love all y'all, man. - Love you so much.

- To the newly exclusive couple. [ All cheering ]

**

- Cheers. - Cheers.

- What is a word that describes you're happier than happy?

That's the word I am. To get to this point, man,

it means a lot, because it's like --

like it's really us two versus the world right now.

And I'm just so happy to be at that point

where I found the one for me.

And, you know, we're going to work out all the way to the end.

- * Exclusive * - * Exclusive *

Now you stuck with me.

So happy for them.

- I know. They're so cute. - He really likes her.

- I know. - That shit is ridiculous.

- They're so lovey-dovey. - For real, though.

- How y'all think Huda and Chris are doing over there?

- I know they have some stuff to talk about.

Like what?

- [ Clears throat ] - What, what, what?

- Why are you being weird? - Just like stuff, like,

- about their relationship. - About their relationship.

- I want to talk to you about something.

What? Why are you all staring?

What are they all staring for?

- Why you worried about it? - What?

- Remember yesterday how I told you to give me a kiss?

- Mm-hmm. - You remember what your first reaction was?

- I looked around. - Why was that?

- Because I'm not ready to kiss in front of people.

- You mean in front of them? - Mm-hmm.

Like right in front of people. Like people are right there.

- I mean, no one was around us at the time.

- Like, I don't mind -- I don't mind you like --

I wasn't done.

- Doing it in front of public, like in front of people in here,

like, that's just mean.

- But you want to do things in the bedroom?

- Like... - What?

I'm just a little confused.

- In my mind, bedroom's more "private."

and then out here, it's more out in the open.

It's like PDA in my brain.

- Okay. - Even they don't really do that.

- It confuses me, like because of how you are

- in the bedroom and then -- - I'll kiss you in the bedroom.

Can I finish, please?

- Okay. Well, do you want me to stop kissing you in the bedroom?

Let me tell you this.

If you don't feel comfortable with giving me even

just like a slight, just like a peck out here in front of people

- that you're comfortable with -- - Well, when you're --

- Let me finish my -- Let me finish my sentence, please.

Okay.

It just confuses me

how we're still next to them in the bedroom.

Regardless if it's dark, it's still...

- I'll kiss you in the bedroom. - Can I finish?

You're upset with me.

- Well, yeah, you keep cutting me off.

I'm sorry.

- I'm sorry. - [ Scoffs ] Okay.

- I mean, I am a very touchy person, and I am very physical.

Um, I've been through a lot being in here,

and I am moving slower in a way.

- It just doesn't make sense to me.

If we can't kiss outside out here,

what's the point of having sex or anything like that?

Okay.

**

* Hold on *

* Hold on to me *

* 'Cause I'm a little unsteady *

Am I tripping?

* A little unsteady *

I don't want to do anything

that I was doing in that last couple with Chris.

I'm trying to switch it and do something totally different.

And now I just feel like it's not right.

* Approach, appear *

- I don't want to be the one to fuck this up.

And I'm just like, "Damn. Am I fucking this up?"

- * 'Cause this house don't feel like home *

What happened?

- * If you love me, don't let go *

Straight gang here?

What happened?

- Bro, I can't do this shit no more, bro.

What happened?

- Every time I try to explain myself,

I get cut off, cut off, cut off.

I'm just fucking confused. I just -- I'm really,

really, really trying to get where Huda is coming from

with her ways of thinking, but I just...

We're not seeing eye to eye,

and I don't think I'll ever get that.

* Hold on *

* Hold on to me *

* 'Cause I'm a little unsteady *

- I just -- I don't know what to do, bro.

* A little unsteady *

**

**

- Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

Chris is worried that he and Huda aren't on the same level.

Now, I don't mean to sound stupid, Chris,

but have you tried kneeling down?

- I just really need your perspective

'cause I don't want to feel like I'm trippin'.

- No. 100%. No. For sure, for sure.

- So, yesterday when we still had the baby and shit,

I was like, "Hey, give me a kiss."

Um, and her first reaction was...

Mm. Okay.

- Like, what, are you --

I say, "You know what? Never mind."

So I asked her, "Why was that your first reaction when...

- Mm-hmm. - ...me telling you that?"

"Oh, I wanted to see who was around

because I don't -- I don't like PDA."

The first thing that you do when the lights go off

is you want to be intimate with me.

- Yeah. So it's confusing to you.

- But out here, you don't even want to give me a peck?

- Mm. - Like, you know what I mean?

- Like... - Yeah.

- A kiss on the cheek or something like that.

Like, that just doesn't add up to me.

I'm just like, "Am I trippin' for even, like, expre--" Like...

- I mean, you have every right to, like,

express how you feel and address how you feel.

- Yeah. - You get what I'm saying?

- Exactly. - You know?

- It just makes me feel like she's embarrassed or something.

- I feel like she probably is, like,

- very emotional right now. - Yeah.

- And it's like -- She's probably not really hearing you out

and just probably being, like, more in a defensive mode.

- Mm-hmm. Yes. Very much so. - And I think that's just her

just, like, trying to protect her own self,

but she's not realizing that it's probably

going to cause a strain between you guys.

- Thank you. - But you're right, though.

You're not trippin' out. Like, you know what I'm saying?

But you good, though. You good.

- Thank you. - You guys will be good, too.

Like, she just needs to calm down.

- Okay. Thank you. Okay? You're good. You're good.

- Appreciate you. - Hugs.

- Thank you so much. You're the best.

No, you're the best.

- Okay. I'm gonna go find her. - Okay.

- How do you feel about the -- the new couple?

- I like it. I was cheering for 'em.

I genuinely am happy for him 'cause, honestly, even when

I was, like, all Team Taylor, I always thought about --

As much as I would like to see us on the outside,

he's in vet school for three years.

You get what I'm saying? Like, I'm like,

"How would you even make time for me in the real world?"

Like, it was already gonna be long-distance.

You have vet school. That takes a majority of your time.

Every weekend you say you're rodeo'ing. You know?

- Did you realize that afterwards?

- No, I was realizing that while we were in it.

'Cause it was in the beginning, beginning.

Despite everything that happened between me and Tyler,

I am truly happy for him.

Um, and it's okay that I am not his person. You know what I mean?

But I am happy that he was able to find someone

that he truly clicked with,

and I can't do nothing but support that.

I love love. I like quality time.

- I feel like it worked out the way it was supposed to.

Yeah. For sure.

Things worked out the way they needed to.

- So, like, from obviously, like...

We've seen you walk off, and then Chris came

and grabbed me for a quick talk.

From his side, he's confused.

Um, he -- he feels like you might be embarrassed

in kissing him in public.

- I'm not embarrassed to kiss him.

Yeah. I don't think it's...

- It's just -- That's not it at all.

Like, I'm not embarrassed to kiss him.

Like, I'm at that point where we're private kissing.

- You don't think it has anything to do

- with the other islanders? - I don't know.

Like, I was kissing in front of other people with Jeremiah,

and, like, everyone had their opinions about us,

- and look how that ended up. - Mm-hmm.

- And I just want this to be me and him.

- Yeah. - And I'm not worried

that they're gonna, like, judge us,

but I don't think that, like --

- I feel like that's our business. - Yeah.

- I don't know if I'm wrong for that.

- I don't think he has any bad intentions.

- I don't think he does, either. Like, that's the thing. Like --

- I think he was just expressing himself.

- I know. - And there was a bit misunderstanding.

But, like, why are you getting, like, emotional about it?

Like, what is it? Are you, like, a bit --

You feel misunderstood by him right now?

- I do. I feel -- I feel like...

I feel like I'm letting him down.

- Don't be too harsh on yourself.

Okay? Come. Give me a hug.

- [ Cellphone chimes ] - [ Gasps ]

Ooh!

Shoot.

Oh, my God.

- Bro. - I got a text!

I'm scared.

- Yeah! - Yeah!

I don't know if I like that.

- Ah! - Oh, shoot.

No!

I'm scared.

* When it all comes down *

* Down *

What the fuck?

This could be really bad.

It's time to play.

**

* Will you even make a sound *

* When it all comes down? *

* Down, down, down, down, down *

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

- "America has been voting for their favorite couple."

"The couple with the fewest votes

will be dumped from the island tonight."

**

Oh, my God.

* We are the hunted *

* We are the chosen ones *

* We are the hunted *

* We are what they... *

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

- "Will all islanders please stand up?"

**

- * All good things must come to an end *

[ Exhales heavily ]

**

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

"In no particular order,

the first couple safe is...

**

**

...Chelley and Ace."

Oh, shit.

[ Applause ]

**

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

"The next couple safe is...

**

* Waiting here *

* The dark creeps 'round *

**

* Ohh-ohh *

* Ohh-ohh-ohh *

...Amaya and Bryan."

[ Applause ]

**

**

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

"The third couple safe is...

**

**

...Iris and Pepe."

**

**

[ Chuckles ]

**

* Time just won't stand still *

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

"The fourth couple safe is...

- * Change always comes, change always comes *

* Back around *

* Thieves in the night *

**

...Huda and Chris."

**

**

Yeah.

Fuck.

**

**

I know.

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

- "Will Clarke and Taylor and Olandria and Nic

please stand in front of the fire pit?"

**

* Burn down my name *

* Cover me in flame *

* Let it rain down on me *

* I pray *

* Let me feel the pain *

[ Cellphone chimes ]

* Burn down my name *

* Cover me in flame *

- "The couple with the fewest votes

and dumped from the island is...

**

* Let me feel the flame *

**

- [ Gravely ] Welcome back to "Love Island USA."

America, you voted,

and one couple is about to be dumped from the Villa.

And I'm talking in this tone

because, with this background music,

any other type of talking would sound weird.

[ Dramatic music playing ]

**

[ Cellphone chimes ]

**

- "The couple with the fewest votes

and dumped from the island is..."

**

* Could this be the end? *

**

* Could this be the end? *

"...Clarke and Taylor."

**

Ohh.

* Lay a whisper *

* On my pillow *

Love you guys.

* Leave the winter *

* On the ground *

* I wake up lonely *

* There's an air of silence *

[ Cellphone chimes ] * In the bedroom *

* And all around *

* Touch me now *

* I close my eyes *

- "Clarke and Taylor, you have received the fewest votes

and therefore have been dumped from the island.

You have 30 minutes to say your goodbyes."

* It must have been love *

* But it's over now *

* It must have been good *

* But I lost it somehow *

* It must have been love *

* But it's over now *

- I'm sorry. - * From the moment we touched *

- I love you, bro. - * Till the time had run out *

You're my girl.

- * Make-believing *

* We're together *

* That I'm sheltered *

* By your heart *

- Oh, don't make me cry, y'all. Lord.

You're gonna make me cry.

* I've turned to water *

- Bye, Tay-Tay.

* Like a teardrop *

* In your palm *

* And it's a cold *

[ Exhales deeply ]

* Winter's day *

* It must have been love *

* But it's over now *

- Fuck, man, I thought we was to the -- to the end end.

This shit don't even feel right, packing your shit up, bro.

* It must have been love *

We started this together.

Like, he brought a sense of goofiness, humor,

the only person who I could say is him

through and through throughout this experience,

day one to day now.

**

Fuck, man.

How do you feel?

- You know, what me and Clarke have is real, so...

You know what I mean?

- And you came out with two best friends.

- No. Brothers. - That's, uh --

- Two brothers, bro. - Brothers.

Like, for life.

Appreciate that, man.

Honestly, bro...

like, y'all are like family to me, you know?

- Always, bro, inside here and outside there.

- And I really care about y'all, like, for real.

- I'm gonna miss y'all brothers, man.

* It must have been love *

- Taylor was a best friend to me here.

It's an unbreakable bond that you build

along this however many days it's been.

And that bond is not broken.

- It's just not here anymore. - * It must have been love *

* But it's over now *

- Very happy to have met all of you beautiful, amazing women.

- We're happy to have met you, beautiful girl.

Y'all ready?

* And it's a cold *

* Winter's day *

Fuck, man.

I ain't think we would be doing some shit like this.

* It must have been love *

- They did what they came here to do, you know?

You come to Love Island to find love,

and clearly they found it.

Probably the best way to go out.

Gonna miss y'all, bro.

- Miss y'all for real. - It was so fun, bestie.

- * It must have been love * - Love y'all.

- Love you! - See ya.

- Bye! - See you later!

- See ya! [ Indistinct shouting ]

* From the moment we touched *

- My "Love Island" experience was a damn near roller coaster.

When I spoke to Clarke for the first time,

that spark and connection we had was something

that I never felt before.

I can't be too sad 'cause that's what I came here for,

to find a connection, and I found it,

and also I'm leaving with it.

- Unfortunately, time wasn't on our side,

and that's okay because we're leaving together.

* It must have been love *

* But it's over now *

- She gave me one of the best feelings I've had in this villa,

and ever since I met her, I was the happiest

I ever been in this villa.

I'm glad I was able to end it with her and leave with her.
