I am, of course, going
to stay.

Previously...
I'm going to stay.

Stay. ..for some,
it was their most affirming

commitment ceremony so far.

I do love you.
Love you too.

But for Maeve...
I've seen Joe struggling.

..it only deepened her doubts...

I don't think he can give you
what you need.

This is shit.

..while for Julia-Ruth...

I've never heard somebody sit on
a couch

and lie so much in all my life.

..a reckoning in the room...

You're not interested
in your husband.

We all know that.
You say, "I don't fancy the man."

And then I see Divarni, there
is stuff happening.

How is
that not manipulating the group?

..forced Divarni into a decision
dilemma.

Is there anything that Julia-Ruth
will do that you won't forgive?

I know what I came here for.

It had to be 100% honest.

Divarni, give us your decision.

Tonight... There's a lot
of shit that's happened this week.

..Divarni's decisive moment...
I've been disrespected.

I don't need to be here.

..sends shock waves through the
group.

I've decided...

..to...

And...

SHE GASPS
Wow!I want that room.

..the couples head off to a retreat.

I love it!

As some embrace the escape...

I'll try and control my urges.
Keep the inner beast at bay.

I know that it's love.
I'm on the love road.

Oh, you're putting me in it now!

..others start to check out.

There are personality traits

that I need in a partner
that I'm not seeing.

Any kind of connection
is missing at the minute for me.

And as Maeve's frustrations grow...

I'm sitting here
when everyone's talking

about their relationship and looking
at me like a BLEEP mug.

..Ashley delivers a devastating
truth.

I asked him,
do you love her?

He couldn't really answer it.

Now I just feel like a BLEEP idiot.

I don't know what else I can do.

Am I ever going to be enough
for anyone?

Divarni, if you can
give us your decision first.

Um...

There's a lot
of shit that's happened this week.

I've been disrespected left,
right, flipping centre,

underneath the rug and whatnot.

I know what I came here for.

It had to be 100% authentic,

100% truthful,
100% honest.

I don't need to be here.

I've decided...

..to...

..stay.

OK.

This is the final push
that I'm going to do.

I've said this to the group,
I'm saying it to you guys.

If I don't see change...

..that's something
that I will step away from.

Thank you. Julia-Ruth, you're next.

I definitely have made a lot
of mistakes in this experience.

I definitely have hurt you
in this experience.

I do apologise for hurting you,
but...

..I wouldn't be here if it wasn't

moving forward between the two of
us.

That's why I've decided
to write "Stay."

OK.

All right.

So, clearly, you both are in it
for at least another week.

We must see progress
in this relationship.

You all are in the deepest hole

that I've ever seen
in this experiment.

But you need to be out of this next
week if you want to keep going.

Thank you. Thanks, guys.

He's absolutely BLEEP delusional,
I'm not going to lie.

Sorry. I actually don't get it.

Like, I don't get
why they're staying. At this point,

I don't even know if he's in on it
or he's that stupid.

I don't get it.

Seeing Divarni
write "Stay" -

gut-wrenching, actually.

I feel like everyone

has tried to help him,
including the experts.

He is being worked.
He's just not ready to hear it yet.

It's not a surprise that the group
don't support our decision to stay.

Yes, I am physically attracted
to Divarni.

Did it start off that way? No.

Have I said that? Yes.

It's now time for me to see
if she's really in this for me.

I've definitely been disrespected,
but...

..I'm not going to be disrespected
again.

Yes, please, get me out of here.

For the next stage of
the experiment...

After you, my darling. Lovely.

..the couples will be spending
the coming days...

How are we all feeling today?! Yay!

..at a countryside retreat.

SHE GASPS
Oh, wow!

I want that room.
Get the good bed.

Wait, wait, wait.
Where's the bed? No!

We believe a change
in environment offers

the clarity needed to see things
from a fresh perspective

and help them better understand
where their relationship stands.

So what? Are we all in here?
Yeah, we're all sharing.

Share-ies, yeah. Roomies!
You lucky, lucky boys.

No, we're swapping.
No, we're not swapping.

Me and Nelly will have this room.

Uh...no.

Oh, I love it!

Oh, and it's...pink!

I'm looking forward to the week
with you. Thank you.

Ooh, this is... Nice, nice, nice.
I love this, look!

Oh, my God! Oh, yeah. Little bit of
privacy.

Oh, it's really comfy.

Are we going to have a little bath?
Yeah.

Are we? Not in the nude, though. Oh!
Sorry.

It's going to be a fun week.
I'm excited! So excited!

Cannae wait.

Yeah.
I'm hoping this week I actually get

to see more of Leo's personality
and what he is actually like.

Because at the minute,
I feel like just banter,

that is something
that he's kind of lacking.

I'm excited.

Yeah, I don't know. Everyone seems
to be having, like,

a really good time with their
partner

and having like, laughs and jokes,
and that just isn't

really something that's
in our relationship at the minute.

And that's so key for me.

Yesterday at the commitment
ceremony,

like, it was my second time on
the couch by myself.

And then next thing I know,
I'm at a couples retreat.

I've heard absolutely nothing
from Joe.

Not a thing.
The last conversation we had,

he was telling me
that he was coming back.

But I don't feel right now
that I'm actually in a marriage.

I'm just thinking,
"What am I exactly waiting for?"

I'm really glad
that we're here with Maeve,

and I'm really glad
that we're all sharing together.

It's... It is sad
that Joe's not here at the moment,

but hopefully he'll come back
and surprise Maeve.

Yeah, it'll be nice if he'll show
up and surprise her.

Hopefully. Yeah. But if
not, we've got her.

Yeah. Me too.

Do you reckon it's going to be
awkward with Divarni

and Julia-Ruth?
I don't want to make it awkward.

Like,
obviously she's pissed people off.

I can understand she felt backed
into a corner. And obviously,

I mean, I had a lot to say about her
and Divarni.

It still makes no sense to me.

I'd like to have a conversation
with Divarni and see where he's at.

I want him to see some sense

and to just walk away from
the situation.

I was so shocked when
they both wrote "Stay."

I was, like, jaw on the floor.
It's up to him, really.

I mean, I would like to just
understand if he heard

what you said on the couch
and what has been being said,

and if he's actually OK with that.

I'll speak to him and see...

I'll speak to him and see
what he heard.

I feel like you've put
so much time

and effort into him over
the past week, though.

And every... So you see him one
day and he's got one mindset,

and then you see him the next day
and he's completely changed.

I feel like Divarni hears a lot,
but he doesn't kind of process it.

It just kind of goes in one ear
and maybe out the other.

I almost want to give Divarni
a shake and, like, wake him up.

Like, "Snap out of it, bro."

She can't do anything wrong in that
boy's eyes... Yeah... ..can she?

It's nice. This IS nice.

I was hesitant to write "Stay."

The relationship between Julia-Ruth
and I is a bit rocky.

This week is about proving

and seeing that Julia-Ruth
is actually here for me.

The disrespect has to stop.
I heard it from everybody,

which wasn't the greatest
feeling to feel.

There are some things for sure

that I need
to take accountability for,

but I felt like towards
the end it just felt like a pile-on.

But in general, like, I think
the most important thing

is just focusing on me and you.

And I think just, like, having,
like, tunnel vision,

I think
that is the most important thing.

And we show that unity as well.
Yeah.

It was hard hearing some of

the comments from the group at
the commitment ceremony,

but I'm doing this
because I want to be with

Divarni and I'm here for Divarni.

That's the reason why I wrote
"Stay."

I do really hope that it works
between Divarni and I this week.

It doesn't feel great,
but I'm kind of trying to

block that out and trying to focus
on

why I made the decision to stay
in the first place.

And that is just, obviously, I'm
here for you.

The emotions are still up there,

but we're working through
this together.

So if we can bounce back from this,
then sure.

I'm here to work on the relationship
with you.

So what are you feeling about the
whole Julia-Ruth situation?

Like, the whole partner swap
comment? Yeah.

Like, it really does blow my mind.

Like, it's so manipulative and I
just... I can get...

I can feel myself getting worked up
again.

My main concern is obviously
Steven and I's relationship.

I don't trust Julia-Ruth.

She is a gorgeous,
gorgeous girl.

Like, I can't compete with that.
It's just put me into a really

annoying headspace
where I'm now feeling insecure.

Why am I scared?

Honesty during Love-Hate Week...

I hate that you don't
like me as much as I like you.

There is obviously truth in it.

You do like me more than
what I like you.

It's not nice to hear.

..coupled with Julia-Ruth
choosing her husband...

I'd marry Steven.

"Have you been emotionally
or physically attracted

"to another husband
in this experiment?"

Probably Steven.

..triggered Nelly's insecurities
and led to a damning accusation.

What I've heard, what Julia-Ruth
has been saying

in the last week about Steven,

it's transpired
that she'd met some people from

the group and said that she needs to
stay for two more weeks

because she hopes she gets him
for partner swap.

That's just not right at all.
Let me finish.

Everyone was doing a...

Julia-Ruth, let me finish.

There was a group of us...

Who does that!

SHE EXHALES HEAVILY

My head's not going to be turned

if that's
what she thinks she can do.

In my head, I'm just thinking,
Julia-Ruth, was your intention

do a partner swap, and then you

and Steven can ride off into
the sunset?

Like, I think
that was her original game plan.

And I'm just like,

"Do you know how much
that would have hurt me?"

It sounds really devious,

but I actually think that's
what her plan was.

I think she was trying to see
if she could turn your head.

It's not going to happen.

Like, I'm married to one person
and one person only, so...

Yeah.

Such a nice day.

The air is fresher
and cleaner already. Mm.

Oh! Oh, my God!
Did you do all this? I did.

How cute, I love it!

Thank you so much!

Thanks, babe. You're welcome. Sweet!

Oh, this is so cute.
Honestly, I am so excited.

I'm so excited for this weekend,
but also just kind of starting...

This is... I feel like this is
starting it, like, the perfect way.

Feeling great about me and Abi.

Every single day we get closer.

I feel so connected to her.

Cheers.

I've never had that feeling
before, and it feels so nice.

When I told Paul that I've fallen
for you,

the conversation then turns
to the big L word, doesn't it?

Yeah, I know.

How far off do you think you are
from saying it?

Oh, you're putting me in it now!

HE CHUCKLES
Yeah.

I'm... I'm basically kind of, like,
nearly there.

I want to say. Yeah, for me, like,

love is a place
that I want to get to,

and I never want to leave there.
Yeah.

And I never want to think, "Oh,
is this too early?"

Or, "Is this love?" Like, I know
that it's love.

I'm... I'm on the love road.

Yeah. It's just about time,

and seeing each other
in different scenarios. Mm-hm.

When we do, we'll be there.

The worst thing I want is, like,

you or me just to say it just
for the sake of it,

and it not to have, like, true
value.

At least, like, it's nice to know
that, like, once it's said,

then it's kind of like 100%.

Yeah. No, exactly.

It's scary,
because I've never been in love.

But it's also exciting because this
is what I've always wanted.

I am falling for him,

and I do see myself fully being
in love with him in the future.

I'm just really excited
for what's to come.

Same. Let's have some fun. Yeah.

Look, you said you were dying
for a drink. Fuck yeah!

This retreat is definitely
a fresh start for me and Leo.

It's going to be nice to see

if he comes out of his shell
and shows his personality.

I just want a bit more of a laugh
and a joke

and see if we can build something.

Lovely. Thank you very much.

I think this retreat has come at
a good time.

I think so.

I think...

Hmm?

That is fresh. Yay!
SHE CHUCKLES

This week is the week to get
to know you properly.

This week is the week that you can
hopefully feel comfortable

and show your true personality
and everything like that.

And then we'll see.

Absolutely. We've got a lot of work.

Well, yeah, I've got a lot of work
to do and, um...

Yeah.

I'm just feeling a bit deflated.

I'm not feeling
that bond or connection, really.

When you are surrounded by
a lot of couples that are so happy,

it's not easy.

There is definitely work to do.

I just I need someone
to take the lead a bit and...

Etc, and, like.... Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?

I get that. I know what to work on
and moving forwards,

just keep communicating
to me how you're feeling,

I'll keep communicating to you
what I'm feeling

and so that we can
keep just making progress.

Yeah.

I'm still very happy with mine
and April's marriage.

I'm confident that it can work but,

yeah, she's got to put a little
faith in me.

Yeah, I'm just sad.
You know what I mean?

I'm just... I don't know,
I'm just not getting what I need.

Just any kind of connection
is missing at the minute, for me.

He seems to be really into me,
but I'm just not...

I'm not feeling it at the minute.

It's difficult
because he's such a nice guy...

..but it's just not going the way
that I thought it would.

I don't know.

Come on, mate, let's go
and have a drink.

I really want to have a word
with Divarni,

with the whole him
and Julia-Ruth situation.

He's in a daze.
He's in, like, this love spell,

and he just can't get out of it.

But every single other
person sees it.

Hello, hello, hello.
Do you want a drink?

Divarni's pouring.

I think Julia-Ruth has massively
taken advantage of Divarni.

I really just hope
that Divarni is able to see sense

and realise that this relationship
isn't going to go any further,

and the best thing for him
to do is leave with his integrity.

Watching you write "Stay"

was probably one of the saddest
things I've seen.

And here's the thing, yeah?

I might be a nice guy,
and stuff like that,

and in relationships I'm just like,
"OK, cool."

If you step on my toes...
Yeah.

..there's only one opportunity
that you have... Yeah.

..to not do that again and rectify
what you've just done.

Mate, she's done...

She's stepped on your toes
so many times.

No, this is one big chunk.
No, brother.

I see this as one big chunk.
Divarni, it ain't one chunk.

She's done so many things to you,

and I do worry about you, mate,
because I feel like

she has kind
of crossed many lines, I think.

I worry that your feelings for her
are just going to blind you forever.

And then, like... No, I'm not
that blind. No, no, no, no.

Like, the Steven stuff that Nelly
was bringing up,

like all that stuff about,
she wants to stay

just so she can have him
on the wife swap...

Yeah, I heard about that.
So you believe she said that?

So, yeah, no, I do believe that.
Like, how...?

How does that sit with you? Yeah.
It doesn't.

When she's telling us all of
that stuff, that's her being real.

She's saying what she wants,
and it's not you.

She's saying she wants
other people's husband.

Are you going to take her back
to your family and

tell them everything
that's happened?

How would you feel?
How's that going to be?

It wouldn't be the easiest, for
sure.

Would you go into your family

and your home and say...?
And say....

"Julia-Ruth said she was attracted
to somebody else's husband.

"She said
that she wasn't attracted to me.

"She's taking the piss out of the
way that I look.

"She's told other people there would
never be a future with me."

She doesn't want to be with you,

she will not see a future with you
after this

and she doesn't find you attractive.

So how are you staying
in this experiment with somebody

that you know does not want this
with you any further?

Divarni is the only one

that hasn't seen the real
Julia-Ruth, if I'm honest.

He sees his own version.

She has said all these mean things
about you.

That should 100% be
the final line,

if there is one, for Divarni.
But he looks like a mug.

How many times can we tell him?

When are you going to make
that decision?

Enough is enough, yeah?

How's things with you and John?

Yeah, it's really good.
Honestly, we're pretty loved-up.

We're not there yet. We haven't,
obviously, said we love each other.

Yeah. We'll get there,
it's just... Yeah.

Don't force that. Oh, my God. No!

Yous are literally doing really
well.

Like, enjoy that. Yeah. Mm. Enjoy
that. He does like you, mate.

He really does. Yeah.
You can see he does.

And he is a top bloke. How's you
and Leo? How's things?

Funny is so key for me. Yeah.

And at the minute,
there just isn't that,

you know, the banter or flanter
or fucking any of that going on.

You know,
there are personality traits

that I need in a partner
that I'm not seeing.

There's so many strong couples
in this...

In this experiment currently,
it's just a bit like, "Oh."

So much can change.
Like, you know, in a week.

Like, Leo hopefully
is, like, understanding

and learning to kind of, like, open
up a bit more to you. Yeah.

Post commitment ceremony,

I'm definitely still feeling
the aftermath of it.

Yeah. Hi! How are you? I'm good, my
love.

I feel like there's
a lot of resentment,

there's a lot of hate there.

How are you?

At least I have Leisha,
Abigail and April

to tell someone in
the group what is actually going on.

How are you feeling?
Right... Yeah? Yeah.

Commitment ceremony
was...bloody intense.

The group are pissed,
to put it lightly.

Do you agree with a lot of what they
were saying in regards to, like,

the lies and all of that?

There's definitely some things that
are like, yeah, nail on the head.

And then I felt like there was

a point in the commitment ceremony
where things started

to be, like, taken out of context.

Just going back to, like, the brunch
day,

because you guys weren't there,
like everyone

was speaking
about, like, Partner Swap Week

and who they would like to have
for Partner Swap Week.

And it was based off
of vibes and attraction or whatever.

So I said Steven, but, yeah,

everyone was going around and saying
it.

So, like,
when you take it out of context...

Yeah, I did say that, but then
so did other people as well. Yeah.

Hearing Julia-Ruth sort
of explain the Steven situation...

..it seems valid.
At the end of the day,

I'm going to give her the benefit of
the doubt,

but I am definitely treading
carefully, for sure.

Divarni and I are in a, like, a good
place at the moment,

so at least that's really nice.

You're only human
and we all do silly things, so...

Just stop doing multiple silly
things, OK?
THEY LAUGH

Everyone's having, like, little
whispers

between each other about Divarni and
I.

But I'm here for Divarni, and
to rebuild and to progress forward.

This, like, mend and restart
has come at the perfect time.

My head's a bit scrambled. There's a
lot of feelings for Julia-Ruth

but a lot was said from Bailey,
Leigh and Leah.

So I'm realising I am
being mugged off.

I feel like 100% I've been
manipulated, but...

..it took a lot
for me to realise that.

Yeah.

Hello.

I'm tired of being undervalued
in the relationship.

I'll do what I need to do.

All right. How are you?

I'm OK. I'm just, uh...

..struggling a little bit. OK.

Definitely struggling.

The couch was difficult.
Still digesting that.

Dinner party was hard.

The week was difficult, for sure.

I've realised
that I've been struggling.

Obviously, Divarni.

Like, really.

Obviously, Divarni.

Yeah.

OK. What's...? What's happened?

I just feel like I've been hit with
a ton of bricks.

Just feeling heavy. That's all.

SHE EXHALES
Feeling really heavy. OK. Yeah.

I need to spend the night apart.

OK.

So, yeah, I'm just going to take
some space.

OK. That's fine.
Go gather your thoughts.

Yeah. Go gather your thoughts.

I don't know why Divarni's acted
the way that he's acted tonight.

I didn't force Divarni to stay at
the commitment ceremony.

You could have written "Leave."
You wrote "Stay."

So then give me a second
to fix things.

What more do you want me to do?

Like, I'm already on my hands and
knees. What more?

I love your hair. No, you don't.
I actually do. It looks crazy.

It looks like I've been electric
shocked. No, I like it.

I'll try and control my urges.

Keep, uh... Keep the inner beast
at bay.

Thank you! Looking forward to
today. Yeah. Me, too.

Right, I'll see you in a bit.
See you in a bit.

Mm-mm. It's my Amazon delivery.

You love a cheeky surprise, so
I thought I'd get us something.

Let me open it.
Oh, they're actually so good! Aw!

They're cute! There's yours.
Aw, they're personalised.

Look at this. Look at this.
Do you like it?

I love that. Thank you so much.

Give me a hug. Come here.
That's so cute. Thank you.

How'd you sleep? Yeah, really well.
What about you?

Barely even realised you were there.

Me and Leo are all right
this morning.

Yesterday, obviously, we had
the little date,

but it was a bit more of a serious
conversation.

Obviously, today with the boys
and girls days,

it will be separate, so it will be
good for him to bond with the boys

and we'd have girl time and then
come together at the end of it,

because he does...
He does miss me when I'm gone,

so hopefully I'll miss him
when he's gone.

Like, I am really upset,

but now I'm getting to the point

that I'm getting angry
with everything.

Like, he's told me that he's
coming back

and I'm just constantly waiting,

looking at my phone,
seeing if he's text us.

There's no communication.
Like, do you know what it is?

I'm actually sick of thinking
about it.

It's just a really...
Muggy thing to do.

100%.

I've been all over the shop.
Right now I feel

that I'm not in a marriage.
Like, where is he?

I'm doing this by myself.

Like, who looks after me
in this situation?

And the only person that can is me.

It's just... I just think,

is he telling me one thing
and telling the lads something else?

I feel for Maeve.
The thing is, with Joe,

he's left her. And with no mention
of when he might be back. Exactly.

Whether or not it's
a week, two weeks, like three.

And he's had options to call her.
He's had time away...

I've tried calling
and I've tried messaging

to speak to him, because I wanted
to just give

a bit of advice and, like,
not push it,

because I know he's struggling
with everything, but just say, like,

she's really spiralling here.

She's struggling
and it's not really fair,

but I just haven't been able
to get hold of him.

I feel like I'm between a rock
and a hard place.

Joe opened up to me at the spa.

I do genuinely have love for her,
like I genuinely do.

But then do you love her?
Probably not.

I obviously don't want
to betray Joe's trust,

but if you know how you feel
about Maeve, cross that one off.

Time's kind of pushing by,
and she's not getting any answers.

It's making me feel a bit shit.

I've woken up this morning
without Julia-Ruth.

I back myself all the time,

I'm going to continue
backing myself.

And that's why I'm saying this
is the last straw.

Enough is enough.

I honestly thought coming
into this retreat,

it would be apologies,

mending, hugs and tears.
And then we could move on.

I feel like I've been completely
thrown under the bus.

I don't have much energy left
to fight for this marriage.

I feel like something in me broke

the second that he left last night.

How do you think Girls' Day is going
to go today?

In an ideal world, Julia-Ruth
would take full accountability

and admit exactly
what her intention was

for trying to meddle
in my marriage... Mm.

..and say sorry.

She's going to need to be like,
"Yeah, Nelly, I was plotting to get

"your man and couple swap with him."

And I'd be like, "OK, I don't want
to be your friend."

I can't compete, like look at her.
She's a dancer.

She's a model. She's beautiful.
I'm just a girl.

We will always compare ourselves
to other women,

especially gorgeous women.

The best thing for her is just to
be truthful,

because that's how I respond...
I respond better to that.

If I see someone is lying or trying
to dig their way out of it,

I just will have no time for it.

Drama is 100% on the cards
for Girls' Day.

Nelly wants more answers.

I think she's still quite annoyed
at what's been said.

Let's just move on from it

and shut things down and make
sure it ends here.

Coming into Girls' Day,
it's not going to be easy telling

the group about my situation
with Divarni at the moment,

just because they're not

in support anyway
of us being together.

Come on, the boys.
And the girl.

She's one of the boys today. Yeah.

I want to be one of the boys
every day.

Taking this space away from
Julia-Ruth,

I'm putting myself first.

Right, everyone. Hey! Wahey!

It's just going to be a good time
just to get things off my chest.

If the commitment
ceremony showed anything,

it's that people have opinions.

So I'm expecting some words to be
had today.

There is an elephant in the room.

I don't think Julia-Ruth
is really taking into account

the detriment she could have
caused to my marriage.

I would love to have answers,
but I've already decided

in my head she's not going
to be honest.

Divarni, how's your marriage?

It's been a long week, innit, and
obviously the couch was a bit tough.

The dinner party was a bit tough.

The couple of weeks
have been a bit tough.

Obviously it's recurring, innit.
Um...

So, yeah, we did sleep separately
yesterday,

um, out of my choice. Oh, did you?
Yeah. What, after our drinks?

Yeah. Just brought a lot of

reflection to my eyes, innit.
What happened?

Too much shit has happened.
I'm hearing that she was

adamant about partner swap and
getting you,

and I was like, "Yo, am I a mug
here?" Yeah.

Do you know what I mean?

I don't want to be in the experiment
being a second choice.

What actually happened last night
when you got home?

Did you decide to leave?
So I just said to her,

"Look, I just need to take some
space apart

"because this is just a lot."

But even just saying that
I wanted to take some space,

there wasn't, like, a real
question as to why.

It was just like...

And she hasn't really
even asked you any questions? Nah.

You don't want someone like
that in your life.

No-one wants anyone like
that in their life.

This journey, unfortunately,
has come to an end for me.

I feel like Divarni's definitely
making the right decision.

This has been a long time coming
and he's finally seen sense.

This is what I've been trying
to make this man see. Finally.

And it hurts, obviously, because
I came here looking for love.

Yeah.

And what I came here looking for,
I didn't find.

So... You deserve it.

You do deserve it, mate. You
definitely deserve better than that.

Yeah, 100%.

I've come to the realisation that
the marriage is not going to work.

I've put in a lot of effort into
the relationship

and I didn't get much back.

And that's the decision I've made.

It just gets to a point when enough
is enough, to be fair.

You know what I mean?
Do you know what, mate,

you as a person and who you are,
you deserve so much more.

Yeah.

Julia-Ruth, what's going on?
Are you and Divarni OK?

I know this is really shit to,
like, bring it up,

but I just want to, you know...

I just want to make sure you guys
are OK. Are you OK?

Um...

Long story short,
I'm not going to get into it,

but we stayed
in separate apartments last night.

Yeah, it's just been really,
really hard to deal with that.

Aw, don't be... Honestly,
we're here for you.

We're here for you, hon.
Please tell us. You're fine.

You're good. You've got this.
You've got this.

You're too pretty to cry! Yeah!

Julia-Ruth is getting
emotional speaking about Divarni,

and obviously it's not
nice seeing someone get upset,

but she's not really given a proper
apology to who she has upset.

Um...

I don't even know what to say.
What am I meant to talk about?

Go on, speak how you feel. Speak how
you feel. Speak how you feel.

Be honest. Yes.

Be honest. Be honest with what you
say now. Absolutely. Be honest.

All in all, um, just not
to take away from my actions,

the commitment ceremony was, um,
a lot. It was overwhelming.

It was really draining.

I just felt overwhelmed
at little bits,

not everything. There was little
bits that were taken out of, like,

context, like, Nelly, this
whole Steven thing

has really been blown out
of proportion.

Can I be honest?

I need you to be open and honest,
because that's

the only way we're going
to squash this.

OK. So, and I'm saying... You know,
I'm going to be honest here.

What is the point
otherwise if we're not?

Yeah. There is no point. Yeah, yeah.
For me,

I had no interest
in conversing any more.

However, you've opened up the floor,
and I think it's really important

that we are open
and honest with each other.

This is where I stand on it.

I'm not even irritated

that you picked Steven at
the dinner party.

No problem.

What really hurt me was you tell
some of our group,

"You know, what I really fancy,
Steven?

"And actually, I need to be
in this process

"so that I can be partnered up with
him for a wife swap."

You can act shocked, but it did
happen.

You can plot, you can manipulate,

you can try and get a situation,
whatever you want to do.

However, I don't surround myself
with people like that.

You know this at this point
because I've said it

at the dinner party. The trauma
I have from men leaving me.

Every single man I've been with...
Nelly.

No, no, every single man I've been
with has cheated on me and left me.

And at that point...
You didn't care.

You know what?
That's going to break me.

And that's what hurts my heart,
Julia-Ruth.

I'm really struggling with that.
No, Julia-Ruth, you have to...

The way I've listened to you...
Listen to her. I am listening.

I am listening. No, but you've
put your head down.

Babe, it is quite hard.
I'm listening.

I'm... I'm listening. Why is it
hard? It's the truth, no?

Your intention is to be with him.
It's at her expense

and it's at Divarni's expense,
for your gain. Mm-mm.

That isn't fair.

I had certain expectations
down the aisle.

I definitely was disappointed.

It didn't work out the way
I wanted to.

I definitely gave it a try.
Physically, Steven is someone

definitely that I would go for in
the real world.

It's selfishness, isn't it?
Because you've thought,

"I don't want to be in this process,
or I've not wanted to be

"in this process with Divarni."
Or it hasn't gone the way

that I wanted it to. "He's not who
I thought he would be." Yeah.

But that's not what this process is.

And that's not fair to think
that you should have that right.

Honestly, I'm so sorry.
I don't believe any of that.

She behaved the way she did,
and she's clearly not sorry.

She's not pulled me for a chat.
She's not done anything.

Shut up! Fuck it!

I've had it. Thank you.

OK. Oh, no! Oh! No!

Julia! Come here. Julia-Ruth.
Girl, girl, girl, girl!

Really, I just can't fucking
do this any more.

Girl, girl, girl, girl.

Really, I just can't fucking
do this any more.

I never wanted to feel
like anyone's coming for anyone,

but I felt like that apology wasn't
sincere, and I thought,

"But what are you actually
sorry for?"

Julia-Ruth and I haven't resolved
anything.

I don't feel like I've had
a heartfelt apology,

so my opinion hasn't changed.

Hello, girls. We're back.

Nelly, she's like a dog with a bone.

I think she won't let off of it.

Why are you threatened?

It's not because of me. It's because
you're insecure

in your own relationship.

Hello. Hello, darling. Hello.
Zebra and the antelope walking in.

I feel like there's still going
to be cold shoulders

and weird vibes and energy.

Back into the lion's den.

I can't resolve something
with someone

if I don't think you're
being sincere.

And I don't feel like she was
being sincere.

It's not really resolved,

but I don't think there's much more
else to say.

Right, everyone.

Tell me, everyone, what's
been going on.

D and I have just continued to be
in love.

We are deepening our connection,

and I'm just loving every minute
I'm spending with him.

Aw!

Go on, Abi. Um, so, yeah,
me and John are really good.

I feel like... I just feel like

really cheesy all the time
because I'm like,

"Yeah, me and John, yay,
fairy tale land,

"like, really happy!" But it's nice.

Honestly, I've never felt this way
about someone before.

Like, he's such an
incredible guy.

I can't even, like, explain it.

I don't feel worthy enough for him.
Oh, my God!

Honestly, he's just so... I think
you need to work on

your self-confidence.
Maybe!

I feel like you and John are at the
perfect place in your life. Yeah.

Like you're both at a really
similar stage.

Like, you guys, like,
are so solid and we're like,

"Oh, my God,
look at Rebecca and Bailey.

See, see, see! We look at you, like
that's where we want to be.

Like, you guys are in love. Like,
you have such amazing communication

and you're such like
the cutest, perfect couple.

And we admire you guys,
like, for that, honestly. Aw!

Aw, thank you, honey.

Yeah. Maeve, what's going on, babes?

Maeve, are you all right?
No, no, I'm fucking not OK.

What's happening, Maeve? Are you all
right? Come on, spill the beans.

Do I have to? Have you actually
spoken to Joe since...?

Not since the dinner party,
the day of the dinner party.

She has tried to get in contact with
him, though.

Yeah. Yeah, you've tried.
Maeve, it's so shit.

I'm sitting here when everyone's
talking about their relationships.

Look at me like a fucking mug.
You don't.

You're a girl... You're a woman
in love.

That's it. You're not a mug.
Absolutely not.

Joe's not here right now.

I haven't seen him in over a week.

Like, there's been no communication.

It's like he's ghosted us.
It's not OK.

And right now I am hurt.

We've got a letter here.

Oh! Oh!

A letter!

"We hope that you're enjoying your
retreat.

"A change of scenery is intended
to help you reflect

"on your own relationship

"and a chance to offer advice
and support to your fellow couples.

"Inside this envelope
are questions designed

"to help you do just that.
As always, be honest.

"Love, Mel, Paul and Charlene."
All right.

Questions.

Who do you think is the funniest
wife?

Grace. No, no, no.

After the last commitment ceremony,
it's got to be Leisha.

LAUGHTER

She's a good laugh, man.
We have good banter.

That's one of the things I asked
for, so I'm happy

she is a joker, yes. She is a laugh.
She has good energy, hasn't she?

Yeah. Also, I've got to throw it
out there.

April's a very funny character.

I think April as well. I find her
fucking hilarious. She's jokes.

I think we've got the same kind
of sense of humour as well.

Like, I struggle to make my wife
laugh, but I think she's funny.

LAUGHTER

Guys, we have a golden envelope.

Are we ready? Ahem!

First question.

Who is the sexiest husband?

Oh, God in heaven. Why now? Why
today? Well, obviously it's me.

Grace! I'll go... I'll
go Bailey. All right.

Next. Reiss. Tall, dark, attractive.

He is a handsome man,
I appreciate that.

I don't fancy him. I love my
husband. Yeah. That's fine.

Yours. Like, he's...
Yeah.

Honestly, I would say John.

Girls, you know I can't get into
it. I can't. I've got to cop out.

No! Nah! I'll let you cop out.

I will cop out. Fuck that.
I will cop out.

My husband's the only
one I'm interested in.

I've not seen a sexier man.
I'm not having...

No, grill me for it. I'm not
arsed. Boring!

Move on. Let's not all cop out,
by the way.

Next. Julia-Ruth.

Erm, honestly, like Steven.

Julia-Ruth, finding Steven
attractive still -

keep your hands off my man! OK.
Yours.

I would say Ash.

He's got that little bit of
sexiness.

Yeah. We'd all have sex with Ash,
let's be honest.

Agreed!

Next question. If you hadn't
been matched with your partner,

who would you like
to have been matched with and why?

Nice. April? Ashley.

Like I've said that openly from
the beginning.

Ashley's a great guy.
He's got the banter I would like,

so, yeah.

Look all you like, ladies!

Ashley! Ashley!

Right, Julia-Ruth? Here we go.

Uh, Steven. Great energy,
great vibes, great banter.

I do feel insecure. Of course I do.
I think Julia-Ruth knows that.

I think that's... I think she's
not... I mean,

she's not a stupid girl.

I just don't think she's
a good person.

Nelly. And Nelly, you can't choose
Steven because everyone else did.

I don't think anyone else did choose
Steven, did they?

Apart from Julia-Ruth.

Can we not with the little digs?
Like...

Steven's hot. Physically,
he is someone I'd go for

outside of this world.

I'm going to be honest.
That man is a ten out of ten,

and he needs someone
who's not insecure and, like, needy.

Good day, weren't it?

It was brilliant.

And the sun was out. You've caught
sun there, mate.

Abso-fucking-lutely. Yeah.

Hi, guys! Hi! Hello.

Hiya. Are you OK? Oh!

All right, babe? How are you?
How are you? Mm. You OK?

Yeah. Good. You? Yeah. Yeah,
we've had such a sick day.

Was it? Like sick day. Super chill.
What'd you do?

We had the golden envelope that come
with a few questions. Go on, then.

Tell us about it.
Oh, right. Yeah,

I remember the first question.

Whose wife
or partner is the funniest?

So you got a couple of votes.
Nice. Oh, yeah!

You got a couple of votes. You also
got a couple of votes. Did I? Yes!

Who were my votes? Tell me.

I think I voted you.

Did you? I think Ash voted
for you as well. Yes!

Who did? Ash. Did he?
And I definitely backed you.

Did you? Fuck, yeah! Take that!

Ashley said I was one of the
funniest, did he? Hmm. Interesting.

I mean, I am.

Oh, God. What about you, girl?
Just shit, innit?

I'm at a couples retreat by myself

and thinking,
"Is my husband coming or not?"

It's in the back of my mind, like,
"Where's Joe and what's he doing?"

Hey. How are you? Hello. How are you
guys? Are yous all right?

Yeah. Hello, darling.
How are you doing?

You all right? Oh, yeah.

Like, now it's getting harder

that I'm doing
the couples retreat by myself.

There's still not any contact,
really?

No, there's no communication.
You haven't spoke at all? No.

The last time I saw him was
the day of the dinner party.

And I haven't spoken to him since.
So, like,

I've got all these things spiralling
in my head,

but the only answers I can get
are from him.

I don't actually know
what else to do.

I think he's going through a lot.
It's just muggy now.

I think Maeve definitely
deserves answers.

Joe's had ample opportunity to speak
to her and he's not done that.

So it's putting me in a really,

really shitty and awkward position.
I feel really fucking shit.

Are you starting
to read between the lines, though?

I'm just thinking, because he's
not saying anything,

is that an answer in itself?

When I spoke to him, I got the...

I got the impression
that he's just scrambled.

You said at the commitment ceremony
when you were like,

"He said something", but you were
like, "I'm not saying anything."

He chose to speak to me

and then went into depth about home
and all different things.

And then if I now betray that,

he's never going to trust again.

Do you think he gave you any
information that would help Maeve?

There was one thing said,
and I asked him directly,

and I said, "You said,
like, you love Maeve.

"Do you love her?"

And he said, "Oh, like, I love these
things and stuff like that."

And I said, "Well, you love her,
but are you in love with her?"

And he couldn't really answer it.

So there's me fucking answer, then.

You don't just fucking sit me on

a fucking sofa telling us
that you love us,

and then next minute
that you fucking don't.

You need to speak to him.
You need to have that conversation.

It's a fucking joke.

It's just fucking annoying.

And now I just feel like a fucking
idiot.

Joe was telling us that he loved us

and that we felt like we were
a proper couple.

Oh, fuck this.

I'm not getting what
I deserve again,

and I always end up getting hurt.

It's really hard
and I don't know what...

I don't know what else I can do.
I don't know where I go from here.

This is awful.

Is there something that I'm doing
that I'm getting hurt all the time?

It's fucking shit.

I just feel that I've given so much.

And am I ever going to be enough
for anyone?

And that's how I feel right now.

Next time... Oi-oi!

..it's the retreat dinner party...

Hello!

..as Joe's late arrival...

You got asked if you
had any feelings towards me.

..sparks an explosive
showdown with Maeve.

You didn't say anything.
What the fuck am I meant to do?

I've been crying for a week, man.

For Julia-Ruth and Divarni...

You could have walked away. You're
a grown man.

..their marital crisis spirals...

Don't talk to me like I'm
a fucking kid.

Well, then don't act like one.
It's always about you.

And this is the problem.

..and the group is caught
in the crossfire.

Why are you so worried, babe?
He deserves the best

and you haven't given him that.
I don't give a fuck.

I think you've hurt
the boy sitting next to you.

Pull your pussy up because
you're boring as fuck.

Seriously. You're an evil person.
