NARRATOR: Previously...

..accusations about Danny...

..saw Bec spiral.
You should trust me.

Then, at the second
commitment ceremony...

I chose to...to leave.

Leave with a kiss.

..Rebecca and Steve
left the experiment.

Are you falling in love?

I think... Yeah.

Love was on full display...

I'm falling hard for him.

What's a girl to do but swoon?

..as Mel and Luke celebrated
their incredible turnaround.

MEL: We're doing so good.

Love that.
We love it too!

Seriously!
(EXPERTS LAUGH)

Do not lie!
You know what you said!

You have zero credibility.

Why would I make this up?

Tensions flared as Danny denied
saying Gia was more his type...

Did you say that, Danny?
Absolutely not.

In all my years working
on Married At First Sight,

I have never experienced a woman
be so vicious toward other women.

..and when challenged
by the experts...

She's decided to do a runner?

..both Brook and Chris left,

officially ending their time togethe
on the experiment.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Tonight...

the experiment enters
its next exciting chapter...

WOMAN: To fall in love in this
experiment would mean everything.

Over two big nights,
love will be in the air...

MAN: I'm definitely ready to share
my life with someone.

..when three brand-new couples
enter the experiment.

WOMAN: I'm just ready to go all in.

First, we meet the regimented groom

who's struggling to find true love.

If they have children,
that's the first red flag.

I'm not here to look after
someone else's kids.

That's not my job.

"If the person across from me today
embraces woke culture,

"we'll have a problem."

Plus...

(SQUEALS)

(LAUGHS) Joking.

..this outgoing bride is looking for
her eccentric class clown.

Shall we get married?
I'm hungry.

But will the groom's wedding vows...

"I've actually got many 'floors' -
carpet, tiles, wood.

"You name it, baby."

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

..or his mother's unusual tribute...

"And he turned into
a gluttonous pig."

..derail the wedding day?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(CRICKETS CHIRP)

(BRIGHT MUSIC)

Australia's biggest social experimen

is embarking
on its next exciting chapter...

where two brand-new couples
will enter the experiment.

First up is former military man
Tyson.

MAN: Being in the army has
shaped me a lot as a person.

I'm very disciplined, I'm very
structured with how I do things.

It's made me the man I am today.

A great career. Great career.

And when I have children, if I find
the right woman, of course,

I'll definitely pursue them
for a career

in the Australian Defence Force,
yeah.

Yeah. Exactly.

Not the girl, though.
Definitely not the girl.

No. No. No. No.

TYSON: Dating now to find the one,

I want to make sure that she has
the same beliefs,

the same values, the same morals
and principles as me.

You know, I wouldn't want a woman
that's woke...

with green hair and, you know,
super overweight.

And, yeah, I'm just not into that.
That's just not me.

That's just not who I am
as a person.

JOHN: What would be
a woke woman for you

that you would just absolutely not b
able to cope with?

A woman with green hair.
That's the first red flag.

A woman that's a complete feminist
and hates men.

A woman that hates Donald Trump.

I personally like Trump.
I reckon he's doing a great job.

A lot of these woke people
that I've met

aren't the sharpest tools
in the shed, John.

Tell me, you know, in terms of,
I guess, a deal-breaker,

what would they be?

So, the big one
is if they have children.

I'm not here to look after
someone else's kids.

That's not my job.

If this girl likes to go out
and party

and have girls' nights
on the weekend, that ain't for me

and she knows where the door is.

They're my big deal-breakers there,
John.

And also, I'd say, like,
a full-blown atheist as well.

I don't want a woman
with a high body count.

That's another huge red flag.

It tells me that she's probably got
daddy issues.

I'm not after a girl
that has daddy issues.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Yeah, I'm very open to sharing
my opinion with other people.

Well, that doesn't really bother me
too much.

What bothers me, if it gets pushed
in my face all the time.

Like, "Look at us, like, gay" and,
like, trying to push it onto me.

Or even guys coming up to me.
I don't like that, you know.

I'm not gay. That's on you guys.

Whatever you do
behind closed doors...

Of course.

I think it's important not to
shy away from your beliefs.

Stay true to who you are
as an individual

and if you've got something to say,
say it.

I've been single now
for quite some time.

I was married about five,
six years ago.

I met this girl in Utah,
got married.

She came to Australia to live

but she was a little bit messy
around the house

and there was a few other things,

you know, plates
in the kitchen sink.

But basically it couldn't work out

because after
a certain period of time,

we couldn't stand to live with
each other, which I think was a year

and then we got divorced

and then, yeah, here I am now,
still trying to find the one.

I really want to
start a family soon.

I bought this house
with the intentions

of starting a family in it.

This beautiful house, you know,
four bedrooms, three bathrooms.

But loneliness is something
that I sometimes feel.

I have this big house
and I'm here by myself.

I feel like Married At First Sight
is my last resort,

just because the conventional way
of how I've done things,

you know, whether I've tried to meet
someone in the supermarket,

hasn't worked.

What I look for in a partner
is a woman that has that the same...

similar mindset to me, so that's
ambitious, that is a go-getter,

you know, wants to succeed,
a woman that's feminine as well,

has those feminine traits
that she'd bring to my house

and obviously the relationship.

But trying to find that partner that
has all those attributes that I want

is very difficult.

I am very black-and-white and I do
consider that a potential factor

to why maybe I'm still single
at the age of 30.

But one thing's for sure, I've got
full faith in the experts' opinion

and I'm very confident that
I'll find the woman of my dreams

on the show.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Don't come at me
with your woke shit.

I think it's all gone too far.

For the love of god, like,
pull it together, reel it in.

It's all good.

We're all equal, we're all playing
our part, we're all doing our bit.

Like, "Oh, my god, I'm a vegan,
I'm a feminist, I'm a d'uh..."

Like, ugh! It's not me.

You know, as much as people,
you know, hate him, you know,

it's taken something like Trump
to come in and be, like,

"But I'm putting a stop
to this shit."

I'm Stephanie.

I'm 32, I'm from Brisbane
and I'm a real estate agent.

So, through here,
we have the living space

and as you can see,
it's really open-plan living,

which is just beautiful.

(LAUGHS) How long
have I been single?

Um... Well, I had...

The last kind of somewhat
of a relationship I had

was when I was 21 years old

and I'm now 32,

so you do the math.

I've never had a serious
adult relationship. (LAUGHS)

I think my friends and family
describe me as, like, very outgoing,

very funny, but also they know
I'm a sensitive soul.

I've got big walls up.

I'm very, like, guarded
of my heart.

Why do you think
you've developed these walls

and sort of protection mechanisms?

I think it has a lot to do with
when I was probably about 15 or 16.

My parents split up

and it was quite a, you know,
heavy time for everyone involved

and then seeing what my mum
went through,

seeing what my dad went through,
it was horrendous.

I don't want to go through that.
MEL: Yeah.

But I just need to kind of let go
and be, like,

"You know what,
that doesn't have to be my story."

I think I'm ready to fall in love.

I mean, in a perfect world,
it would be, like, Mum and Dad

and the little babies
and the poochie, you know.

That's... Like, that's the little...

That's the picture
I have in my mind.

Like, when we say
traditional relationships,

are you referring to, like,
woman stays at home,

man goes out and works?

Look, I'm not against it.

It's what works for the couple,
right?

And I think if everyone's happy,
then so be it.

So, the kind of man I think
it will take...

Yeah, I do think it will be
someone who, like,

very much will take charge,

be a man.

I want a man of the house,
someone who's masculine.

I want to step more into
my feminine and, like,

yeah, let someone else take control.

I don't want someone who's so soft,

you know, like,
useless as a chocolate teapot.

Both Stephanie and Tyson want that
traditional white-picket-fence life.

I think Stephanie could be
a good match for Tyson.

She does share some of those
conservative world views,

so although Stephanie
might challenge Tyson,

I think it's their similarities
that will bind them together.

They both lead disciplined lives.
They work out every day.

Neither one of them parties.

And they both have very similar
views on what they want

for their future.

That's actually quite rare
these days.

So, what do we think?
Stephanie and Tyson?

Let's do it.

NARRATOR: The first new couple
has been unveiled,

Stephanie and Tyson.

Next to enter the experiment
is an extroverted bride

who is hoping to find
her equally eccentric soulmate.

I'm Juliette. I'm 27 and I'm
a receptionist from Melbourne.

I'm getting married!
(LAUGHS)

I try to live life
without any regrets.

My theory in life is "Yes, man."

I love to have fun, I love to
travel, I love to just live life,

so I just like to say yes
to almost everything.

I'm gonna have a husband!

I want my future husband
to be someone

who, when, you know, I'm, like,
going through the aisles of Coles,

like, dancing and, like,
just, like, feeling myself,

I just, like, would like someone
who wants to, you know,

celebrate that with me rather than
try and make me hide that of myself.

Someone who's, like, "Genius!"

I'm envisioning, like,
class-clown vibes, you know.

Everybody's favourite guy.
Yeah.

Like, perfectly matches
your energy level.

A goofball. I want a goofball.
I want a goofball.

That looks after you.
I want to laugh.

I just want to laugh. Like...
Yeah.

How much is it gonna take for me
to laugh?

(LAUGHS)

Are you hungry?
I'm so hungry.

What have you got for us
tonight?

Mm-hm.

Freaky close.

Like, I love to do everything
with her.

She's, like, slipped into that role

of what I probably would be doing
with my partner.

Yeah, she's my rock.

I reckon this guy is the one.
Why? What gives you that vibe?

I mean, if he's crazy enough to take
an opportunity like you have,

that's already a green flag
in my head.

That's true.

Pretty much the whole time I've been
single, I've been rejected.

Guys who have thought
that I was too much...

and that's really, like,
hurt my soul,

hurt my character

and so I would want someone who is
going to want to celebrate me

for, like, me.

What I want from a husband
is someone that's not afraid of,

like, my loudness...

(GUFFAWS)

They love experiencing life,
they love going to restaurants,

they love trying new things...

Yeah! (LAUGHS) Big fan of that!

So I want them to have
that same zest for life.

I'm so excited
to marry a stranger.

I think it's, like,
a crazy, crazy challenge

and it's gonna come with
really good rewards, hopefully.

Fingers crossed.

(BIRDS CALL)

(ROCK MUSIC)

MAN: When people first meet me,

they normally think that I'm just
loud, obnoxious and immature.

I agree with the loud part.
(LAUGHS)

(ROCK MUSIC)

I laugh at everything and I always
laugh at myself, to myself.

I'm literally walking in an airport
alone making jokes to myself

and I'm thinking I'm the funniest
person on earth. (LAUGHS)

I'm Joel. I'm 31. I'm from Sydney
and I'm a model.

(ROCK MUSIC)

So, I'm a model now, which I never
thought in my wildest dreams

would ever happen.

I was a fat Uber driver
for six years.

Yeah.

Are they actually gonna show that?

Like, I want them to.

Like, that's a request.

(LAUGHS)

You know what, I've never met anyone
that describes themselves in the pas

as a fat Uber driver.

Talk to me. What were you like?
What was going on?

The turning point really
was five years ago,

with my ex-girlfriend
broke up with me -

that was the turning point.

I was at my lowest point.
I was obese.

I was 105 kilos -
20 kilos heavier than I am now.

Yeah. I was... I was a dead man,
a broken man

and I needed to piece myself
together.

"I gotta get to work. I've got to
upgrade mind, body, soul."

If you want to attract
your dream woman,

then you've gotta become
her dream man.

For the last five years, I've been
in self-development boot camp.

Day in, day out, I've been reading,
I've been meditating,

I've been exercising,

I've been trying to become a man
of value and principle.

Why now MAFS?

'Cause you could just keep being
in the self-improvement lab

doing your stuff.

Well, I'm ready.
I'm ready for the new life.

I'm ready for the wife.

I am... I am whole now.

It would mean everything to me
to find the love of my life.

That's what I've been
working towards.

My message for the experts
is just please bring me someone

that is boisterous, loud,
kind-hearted, empathetic

and full of love,

someone that I can love

and someone that loves me
and accepts me for who I am.

My mantra for life is to
not take myself too seriously

and to not take life too seriously.

I find everything funny.

I see life through
the lens of humour.

Best way we can describe Joel
is he's theatrical.

Mmm.

He's a big personality,
a big character.

Joel has done a lot of work
on himself.

He's lost a lot of weight,
he's changed careers

and he's really embraced
his extroverted side.

Juliette is looking for
an extrovert, a goofball,

a big personality that doesn't make
her feel like she is too much.

She wants someone with
her same level of energy,

somewhere with a zest for life.

I think Joel and Juliette
are gonna be a really fun match.

NARRATOR: Juliette and Joel
and Stephanie and Tyson

have been matched.

And in just a few short hours,
the new matches will meet

and marry at the altar.

How do you think they're feeling?
GRAYSON: Very nervous.

I remember how nervous I was.

The original couples will split into
two groups to attend the nuptials.

Lovely.

Look at your work.
You are a masterpiece.

This isn't my first rodeo, babe.

RACHEL: Alright.
STEVEN: You look lovely.

Let's... Let's blow this joint.

MEL: Let's watch two strangers
get married.

LUKE: I know. How fun.

But will unfinished business
between two of the original brides,

Bec and Gia,

resurface at today's weddings?

At last night's commitment ceremony,

Bec rejected Gia's accusations
about her husband Danny.

BEC: Gia made a comment to me

that on Saturday night
Danny said to her,

"In the outside world,

"you would be the type of girl
that I would be interested in,"

not me.

(TENSE MUSIC)

MEL: Did you say that, Danny?
Absolutely not.

Of course not.

Are you joking?

Why the (BLEEP)
would I make that up?

And, Bec, do you believe Danny
at this point?

I know how loyal he is

and I feel like we've got
a real connection.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

GIA: Bec said
that I've ruined her relationship.

Her insecurities are making her
believe that I'm the problem here.

If she doesn't want to believe me
and she wants to still believe Danny

I don't know how that's gonna go,
to be honest.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

BEC: None of this would've happened

if it wasn't for Gia
talking about my husband.

She wants to hurt me, she wants to
make things up about my husband.

I do not believe it for a second.

Give us a twirl.

(LAUGHS) Which way are you going?

Sexy lady. (WOLF WHISTLES)

It's uncalled for and unjust
and it's made an enemy in me.

Let's go to the wedding! Come on.

DANNY: Let's go. Come on.

BEC: I feel like I deserve
an apology from Gia.

Either speak in facts
or don't speak at all.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(BRIGHT MUSIC)

NARRATOR: As Juliette and Joel
prepare to walk down the aisle,

Joel's best man is on hand to help.

Yo, what's up?

This is my real best man right here.

Never let me down once.

31 years, still kicking.

Still the OG. Still the OG.

It's not ideal
that I don't have a best man.

But I have got my mum coming.
Best mum.

WOMAN: Oh!
Hello.

Hello, handsome!
Hello, beautiful mum!

JOEL: My mother is my guru.

She's my therapist,
she's my spiritual guide.

She's everything to me.
Thank God for Mum.

Got a whole bag of food.

Would you like a banana?

Just some nice... Something fresh.

Joel and I are very close

and we've really been
a very tight unit, the two of us.

How about chicken sandwich?

Joel texts me so many times a day
and emails,

I have to put him on mute.

I love that we're that close,

but honestly,
sometimes it's intense.

Alright, let's see if you like
my specialised chicken sandwiches.

I'm sort of gonna have a rest now
that he's gonna be busy.

Mmm.
Mmm!

See?

Here, darling.

I want him to cling onto
another woman.

(LAUGHS) Truly.

(LAUGHS)

Alright. Any other snacks, my love?

NARRATOR: Across town,
Juliette is feeling optimistic.

JULIETTE: Dream outcome -
today's is love at first sight.

For both of us, not just for me.

(BRIGHT MUSIC)

We're just gonna be giddy
the whole time.

That's my dream situation -

just a little goofball by my side.
(LAUGHS)

I picture my husband right now
catching up with his groomsmen

and finding a brewski in the fridge

and maybe doing a cheers to me.
(LAUGHS)

SHARYN: In through the nose,
out through the mouth...

and just releasing any anxiety.

That's it.

NARRATOR: On Sydney Harbour,

Juliette and Joel's wedding
is about to begin.

(BRIGHT MUSIC)
(BIRDSONG)

SHARYN: Wow! Gorgeous. Wow.

It's a beautiful setting, isn't it?

WOMAN: Wow. What a gorgeous day.

That must be his parents.

Hello.
Hello. I'm Ellie.

Hello. I'm Sharyn.
Are you the groom's mother?

I'm the groom's mother.
Hello, Sharyn.

Hello. (LAUGHS)

Sorry, what was your name again?
I'm Ellie.

Ellie. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.
Beautiful.

SCOTT: I'm excited for this.
GIA: I know.

Julie joining Juliette and Joel's
friends and family

are the original couples...

Hello.
I am excited.

Hey, guys.
Mel and Luke, Gia and Scott...

SCOTT: How are we all?
..Stella and Filip...

FILIP: How we going?
STELLA: Hi, everybody.

How are we?
..and Bec and Danny.

GIA: Are you guys nervous?
WOMAN: I'm excited.

BEC: Yeah, that's because
you're not getting married.

After coming off of a bad week
and a really bad time with Danny,

being here today definitely
reminded me of my own wedding.

It's actually
a really beautiful feeling.

ELLIE: Oh, you're not part of...?

'Cause we thought you had
extra guests.

No, we're in the experiment.
We're all the other couples.

Oh, wow.

Congratulations.

We've all done this.
We've done this already.

Three weeks ago.
And how is it?

How did you find the experiment?
It's great. It's working for us.

DANNY: These two are in love.
They're in love.

Wow.

They're the real deal, yeah?

We are too, to be fair, but...

The real deal, aren't we?

But yeah...
Thanks, babe.

(EXPECTANT MUSIC)

Here he is.

(SHARYN LAUGHS)

MAN: There he is.
Here he is.

My new family.
OTHERS: Yeah!

Hello.
WOMAN: Hi.

We're your new friends.
Here we go.

(WOMAN LAUGHS)

(EXHALES)

(PLAYFUL MUSIC)

What's going on?

Where did you get the suit?

Suitsupply.

Do you like it?

BEC: Nice to meet you.
Hi.

I'm Bec.
Bec.

Joel. Nice to meet you.
Are you nervous?

I've been less nervous before.
OK.

Yeah. But then...
ELLIE: Hi, Joel. How are you?

What's your name?
Ellie.

I'm Joel.
Hi.

Yeah.
I am the bride's mother.

Oh! True.

That's right, the front-row seats.
Yeah.

Joel.

(LAUGHS)

I really want to tell you something
right now but I can't.

Can't until I do... You know.
(LAUGHS)

No.

What was your name again? Joel?

I've said it, like, three times.
MEL: Oh, sorry. I couldn't hear you.

Remember, we're your new friends
in this experiment.

We're all the other couples,
so chill.

Are we besties already?

We've all been here a month.

You guys are doing what we did
a month ago, so...

Are you still nervous
or your nerves have subsided?

No. You should be, though.

Jesus! Like, shots fired
in the first two minutes.

(LAUGHS)

BEC: Give him some grace.

It's not a time
to be attacking someone.

Standard behaviour, though,
you know.

Didn't know this was gonna be,

you know, the colleagues in front,
you know...

You'll be fine, Joel.
You're gonna be fine, mate.

This whole period has been
quite anxious and nerve-racking.

JOEL: A lot of people who meet me
don't really understand me.

They just see something
and judge me.

So I hope my future wife
doesn't judge me too quickly.

That's Joel.
Hi, Joel.

Hi.
I'm Saatchi.

I'm Trinity, her sister.
Trinity. Lovely to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Everything he's saying,
I'm getting a ick.

I want to turn around
and get in on the jokes.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(BRIGHT MUSIC)

Ah! Is that a sign?
(LAUGHS) I'm joking.

JULIETTE: I definitely believe
in love at first sight.

I'm hoping when I get to the end
of that aisle,

I'm gonna see a confident man,

someone who's as, like, crazy
and risk-taking as I am.

I'm just ready to go all in,
you know.

I've been craving
that partnership for so long,

so I will try extremely hard

to make sure that this is gonna be
the love of my life.

I just hope that he's gonna be
as trusting of this process as I am,

especially, like, knowing
how vulnerable I'm gonna be

in this situation.

I need him to take the experiment
really seriously.

I'm in this for the long haul.

(EVOCATIVE MUSIC)

WOMAN: Oh, my god. She's beautiful.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I think for such a beautiful
wedding today,

I was hoping to see a fairytale.

And I feel bad for this girl
who's coming down to this weirdo.

Like, if that was my husband
and I turned around, I'm running.

You would have left the scene.
I'm (BLEEP) gone.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Hello! (LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Hello! (LAUGHS)

How we going, guys?

(BRIGHT MUSIC)
Hello!

Hi!
Oh, my god!

Hello!
Wifey!

Hi, hubby!
Hello, darling.

(LAUGHTER)
Mwah.

You look gorgeous.
Hi. How are you?

You look gorgeous. Jasmine.
Thank you.

Jasmine?
'Aladdin'.

Princess Jasmine.
'Aladdin'? Yeah. I guess.

How you doing?
(LAUGHTER)

JOEL: I thought she looked
absolutely beautiful.

She's got that sort of Arabian,
you know, goddess, princess look -

regal, nice skin, soft eyes.

I'm a happy boy. Happy boy.
Happy boy alert.

Sirens going off. Happy boy here.

What's your name?
My name?

Yeah.
Husband.

Husband? Wife.
Joel.

Joel. Hi, Joel.
And your name?

Wife.
Wife?

(LAUGHTER)

Yeah, Juliette Chae, wife.
Juliette.

Mm-hm.
Beautiful name.

Oh, great start.

I can feel the connection.
I can feel it.

I definitely think he's, like,
a beautiful man,

so I'm excited to get to know him.

You have to help.

This is the first ask
I might do of you.

I just unbuttoned it.
Oh.

What do I do?

This little button thing's there.
Before we start...

Didn't think I'd get hands on
this early.

(LAUGHS)

Anyways, there we go. Consent.
That's consent in action.

Yeah, yeah. We've had consent.
We love consent.

Yeah.
(LAUGHS)

As soon as we started having banter,
I got a really good feeling.

I think we're gonna get along great.

My first marriage
was quite different.

Oh.
Yeah.

(SCOFFS)

Was it kind of the same vibe,
marrying a stranger?

No, it was my teddy bear. Yeah.

Not a human.
Good save.

Yeah.

Shall we get married?
I'm hungry.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I love how loud he is.

He's definitely
that classic class clown.

That's a slay. That's great.
That's something I can work with.

CELEBRANT: Hello, everyone,

and welcome to the wedding
of Joel and Juliette!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
J and J.

My name is Andrea and I am absolutel
honoured to be here today

celebrating
these two incredible humans

as they take one of the most excitin
and terrifying leaps of faith

that they've ever taken.

So, with that, I'll invite you both
to share your vows.

OK.
Juliette, you're up first.

Oh!
OK.

OK. "Hi, Joel.

"What a lovely way to meet
my forever.

"The decision to find my one
true love by marrying a stranger

"is almost as wild as I am,
but it feels right.

"It feels like it might be
our destiny.

"I am real.

"I say it like it is and I ride
till the end for the ones I love.

"I love hard

"and if you have me in your corner,
you have nothing to fear.

"I will be the Lady to your Tramp

"to share
your spaghetti bolognese with

"and I'll be a plot twist
to your story -

"unexpected, chaotic
and hopefully unforgettable.

"And just a warning -
in the wise words of Charli XCX,

"everyone's just a freak, but some
people are trying to hide it

"and some people embrace it

"and I can confidently say
I'm a girl who embraces it."

Oh!

Here's to forever hubby.

Beautiful.
(APPLAUSE)

Really great speech.
Thanks, Joel.

I loved it.
(GIGGLES)

Juliette's vows were great.
I really enjoyed them.

I thought they were heartfelt,

I thought they had
some humorous bits.

She's got a good sense of humour.

I reckon we're gonna have
a lot of laughs together

and that's what it's about for me.

"Well, this isn't your typical
man-meets-woman story.

"From the moment I saw you,
I just had this funny feeling

"that it was going to take less
than two sightings to marry you.

"My mother says I'm perfect,
but I most certainly disagree.

"I've actually got many 'floors'...

"carpet, tiles, wood,
you name it, baby."

(LAUGHS)

"So, you might be wondering,
who exactly are you marrying?"

Mmm.

"Who is this perfectly manicured,
dapper, suave, sexy,

"unsophisticated, undomesticated,
uncultured,

"once-fat Uber driver
now turned model

"that can't tell the difference

"between a bloody washing machine
or a dryer,

"who says what he thinks

"and who is unapologetically
himself at all times,

"with no exceptions
for anyone, anything,

"any time or any place?!"

(BIRD SQUAWKS IN THE DISTANCE)

(LAUGHS)

"To my wife,
I want to really know you,

"all your quirks, your dreams,
your fears, your annoying habits,

"your questionable clothing items.

"Loose and baggy equals daggy."

(LAUGHS)

"All Birkenstocks and Crocs
must be incinerated immediately!"

SCOTT: Oh, gosh.
GIA: Oh, my god.

"And I want you to know me
just the same.

"To me, marriage is more than love.

"It's friendship, loyalty
and showing up for each other

"on the easy days and the hard ones.

"It's knowing that no matter
what the world throws at us,

"we've got each other's backs

"and if you scratch mine,
I'll scratch yours."

(HALF-LAUGHS)

The funny thing about my back

is that it's actually located
on my back.

(JULIETTE HALF-LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(SOME APPLAUSE)

WOMAN: God.

(LAUGHS)

Joel's an extravagant man for sure,
but I love that about him.

I think he's gonna make me laugh
a lot

and that's something I said
to the experts -

I want someone to make me laugh.

CELEBRANT: It is my absolute joy
and honour

to pronounce Joel and Juliette
as husband and wife!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

You can seal it with a kiss!

ONLOOKERS: Aw!
(WOMAN LAUGHS)

(RESOUNDING MUSIC)

Joel and Juliette!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
SHARYN: Oh, gorgeous!

Whoo-hoo!

JULIETTE: Thank you.

Yeah.

Kisses already. (LAUGHS)

(SCOTT LAUGHS)
GIA: God.

You think he's a model?

For toilet cleaner, babe.
(LAUGHS)

Like, that's what I said.
Like, not normal shit.

No. It's a no.

We'll see how this reception goes.

Because if he starts getting pissed,
he might throw some bombs.

You don't know.
I'll take him down if he does.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR: Next, the experiment's
most opinionated groom

meets his match.

TYSON: Um...

Hello. (GIGGLES)

TYSON: I did get
some woke vibes there.

And Joel is in the hot seat.

SCOTT: Is Juliette the type
that you would desire?

What did you ask for?
Be specific.

(SCOTT AND GIA LAUGH)

We're going in depth already.
I...

NARRATOR: Today is
Stephanie and Tyson's big day

and for this former soldier,

getting married is no reason
to skip the workout.

TYSON: Just some push-ups.
I'd like to do them in the mornings.

This is nerve-racking,
this morning,

'cause I don't know
who the hell I'm marrying.

I feel like I've set my life up
pretty well at the age of 30

and I want to come home
to, like, my wife.

I put my faith in the experts

because I have full trust
and full confidence in their ability

to find me the right woman.

There's always that possibility
that she might not like,

you know, what she sees,

but, look, I'm very confident
within myself

and I know what I bring
to this relationship,

so I don't think that'll be
an issue.

NARRATOR: Across town,

Stephanie is finally ready to shed
her permanently single status

and dive into the deep end
by marrying a stranger.

Best friend Ebony is by her side
for this monumental event.

(LAUGHS)

Oh, my god.
You look so beautiful.

(GIGGLES) Thank you.

Aw!

I'm feeling good.

Stephanie doesn't really put herself
out there with dating or guys.

For the last few years at least,

she's been really working on
her career

and that's been her focus,
so it's massive for her to do this.

But I think this is kind of the push
she needs to kind of get out there

and what better way to do it
than on Married At First Sight!

Oh, my god.

I barely recognise myself.
I know.

How are you feeling? (LAUGHS)

I'm definitely starting to
get nervous now.

It's all getting real.

STEPHANIE: The end goal
is to find love,

find someone
that I can build a life with.

I want someone who's masculine,

with, like, a strong set
of traditional values,

someone who I can trust.

I started to believe that I would
never even wear a wedding dress.

The last time I kissed someone
was probably, like, three years ago.

So, yeah, the fact that, like,
I'm getting married today,

that's the length
that I'm willing to go to

to find love
and share that with someone.

(RESOUNDING MUSIC)

Hello.
Hello.

Hello.
Nice that the sun came out for us.

(LAUGHS)

I'm gonna take my waistcoat off.
It is hot.

So, who's who?
I'm the dad.

I'm uncle.
Yeah.

And the riff-raff are behind us.
MAN: (LAUGHS) The riff-raff.

Nice.
Are you the mum?

Mum.
Oh, cool.

Yep.

NARRATOR: Joining the guests
are the original couples,

Julia and Grayson...

GRAYSON: Hey, guys. How are we?

..Rachel and Steven...

Hi.

..and Alissa and David.

ALISSA: Hello.
MAN: Howdy.

Hi. How you going?
WOMAN: How are you?

Let's get this show on the road.

ALISSA: I am just the rose
between all the thorns today

on this side.

There's a lot of man energy. Men.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Why are there so many men
on this side? Where's the ladies?

(EXHALES)

TYSON: I've been looking for love
now for quite some time

but trying to find that perfect
partner is very difficult.

I want my future wife to bring
femininity, to bring class,

to bring loyalty
and along with that, some sweetness.

What I don't want to see
walking down the aisle

would be a woman with green hair

and, quite frankly, if she's woke,

I don't really stand for
any of that shit.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(EXHALES)

(LAUGHTER)

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

We've been there, don't worry.

Welcome to the family.

(LAUGHTER)

We're one big happy family in here.

He's very handsome.
He is very handsome.

(LAUGHS)

So, who's the mum?

How you doing?
What was your name, sorry?

Lorraine.
Lorraine.

Tyson. Nice to meet you.
Lovely to meet you, Tyson.

Yeah. And who's this?
Hello. I'm Ebony.

Friends. Yes.
Friends? OK.

Hello.
Hi.

Sorry I didn't introduce myself.

(CLEARS THROAT)

That's very sweet, Ty.
Thank you.

(LAUGHTER)

Wow.

STEPHANIE: I so desperately want
this day to be

the start of the rest of my life.

I'm putting my faith in the experts
because I'm single at the age of 32

I'm obviously not doing
something right.

This is the start of me
letting someone in

and letting the walls down,
being vulnerable,

opening up your whole heart.

Everyone always tells me
that love is the best feeling

and to fall in love in this
experiment would mean everything.

(RESOUNDING MUSIC)

(GENTLE MUSIC)

(RESOUNDING MUSIC)

TYSON: Um...

When I saw her
walk down the aisle,

I did get some woke vibes there.

Hello. (GIGGLES)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

When look at someone,
you can sort of tell.

ALISSA: Oh!

Hello.
Hey. How you doing?

I'm Steph.
Tyson. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.
(BOTH LAUGH AWKWARDLY)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oooh. There's a lot going on here.

(BOTH LAUGH)

STEPHANIE: He's very nice look at.
He's got a good tan. He's tall.

I definitely think there was, like,
some good chemistry there.

I'm liking what I see so far.
I hope he shares the same sentiment.

(CLEARS THROAT)

You look beautiful, I have to say.
Thank you.

Yeah.
Thank you.

(LAUGHS)

How old are you?
I'm 30. 30.

You're 30?
Mmm.

How old are you,
if you don't mind me asking?

How old do you think I am?
Mmm, mid-20s?

No, I'm 32.
32?

Yeah.
Oh, OK.

Yeah.
Two years on me.

I'm a cougar.
Two years. Yeah, I know.

Yeah. Nothing wrong with that,
I guess.

Yeah. Mmm.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(CLEARS THROAT)

Yeah, look, I asked for
someone younger.

The fact she's 32, um...
not too happy about that.

I mean, it's only two years older
than me.

I was hoping to essentially get
a wife maybe in her mid-20s.

Having someone older than me just...

feels weird.

Yeah, I'm not really a huge fan
of that.

CELEBRANT: Stephanie and Tyson,
by exchanging your vows today,

things between you will never
quite be the same again.

No pressure. (LAUGHS)

(EXHALES)

(CLEARS THROAT)

"So, to my wife.

I'm here to find love.

"At the age of 30, I'm ready.

"My life is set.

"The family home, the car,

"the foundations
are already in place.

"All I've been missing is you."

(LAUGHTER)

"I'm driven, passionate
and disciplined -

"these qualities
forged during my six years

"in the Australian Defence Force.

"2018, I deployed to Afghanistan.

"That chapter shaped me
into who I am today.

"I hold traditional values
close to my heart.

"I see myself as a provider
and protector

"and I long for a partner
who embodies grace,

"loyalty and femininity.

"I stand firmly by my beliefs
and I won't waver on them.

"If the person across from me today
embraces woke culture,

"we'll have a problem."

(CLEARS THROAT)
(TENSE MUSIC)

Oh, thank god.

(LAUGHTER)

Oh!

Anyway...
That's something we can talk about.

"My past has not been
without heartbreak.

"I've been married before,

"chasing my dream
of a family too soon.

"But from that experience came
lessons I now consider a blessing."

I was surprised that he had been
married before, 'cause he's 30.

But, I mean, it doesn't bother me.

"I've been waiting a long time
for this moment

"and now that it's finally here,
I'm ready to love once again.

"And so, from this moment forward,

"we're no longer strangers,
we're a team."

Love it.

And that's it, ladies and gents.

WOMAN: Aw!

STEPHANIE: Everything he said
was really lovely.

Like, how he wants to, like,
take care of someone

and how he's, like,
kind of a masculine.

It definitely seems
that we hold similar values.

Yeah, he just seems like
the total package

of what I would want in a guy.

"Since this is technically our first
date, I should introduce myself.

"I'm Steph.

"As a real estate agent,
I'm exceptionally goal-driven

"and ambitious
when it comes to my career

"and I'm building my dream life.

"Now I'm just hoping to find
the dream man to complement it.

"I'm hoping that person is you.

"I love my routines
and they are exceptionally..."

"I'll admit, I can be stubborn.

"Once I've made a decision,
it's not easy to change my mind,

"so hopefully you're good
at gentle persuasion."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(LAUGHTER)

Oooh.

She's a very driven individual.

She's getting me
those boss-bitch vibes.

"On the outside, I might seem
confident and bulletproof.

"I'll take the lead
when things need organising..."

TYSON: She did give across
masculine energy...

and I don't need
any more masculine energy.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

"I've often wondered
who my dream man might be.

"For me, he's ambitious
but also someone who finds joy

"in standing beside a woman."

TYSON: She needs to bring
femininity.

The masculine energy is already
up here. I don't need any more.

"But the truth is,
beneath all of that,

"I'm also a sensitive soul

"and at times
a bit of a delicate flower.

"I've built some walls
to protect myself

"and truthfully, I've never been in
an adult relationship.

"A lot of that comes from my past,

"when my parents divorced
when I was younger.

"From then on, I always found it
hard to fully trust

"that love could last."

I mean, how can you be 32
and never be in a relationship?

That's crazy.

"So, here's to us,

"trusting that the best stories
start with a little courage,

"a lot of hope
and maybe just a dash of crazy."

The end.
Beautiful.

Loved it.
CELEBRANT: Brilliant.

Thank you very much.
Oh...

Beautiful.
(APPLAUSE)

Whew!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

TYSON: She's a beautiful girl

but I think Steph is single
for a reason.

CELEBRANT: Do you take Stephanie
to be your wife?

I do.

Now, Stephanie, do you take Tyson
to be your husband?

I do.

So, ladies and gentlemen,

I now declare Stephanie and Tyson
to be husband and wife.

WOMAN: Whoo-hoo!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oh, my gosh.
Alright.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Yeah.

STEPHANIE: He is lovely.

I'm, like, genuinely surprised

that literally everything I said
I wanted in a man

seems to be packaged up
in a nice little bow.

Oh...

Yeah, look, I just don't want her
bringing any dominant masculinity

into this relationship.

I want submissive vibes.

You know, someone that is submissive
and not masculine,

otherwise we're gonna have problems.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(TYSON HALF-LAUGHS)

PHOTOGRAPHER: Big smiles.

NARRATOR: At 1300 hours,

military man Tyson
is reporting to photo shoot duty...

(MILITARISTIC MUSIC)

..and conducting some intelligence
gathering on his new bride Stephanie

How have you never had
a (BLEEP) boyfriend?

(GIGGLES)
What's going on there?

Big walls, man.
Huh?

Bigger than these ones.
(LAUGHS)

It's very alarming that she's 32
and never been in a relationship.

Well, the thing is, Steph,
like, life's short.

Mmm.

Like, you get to a certain age
and you say,

"(BLEEP), like, I'm getting older."
Mmm.

"Time's ticking here. I'm not gonna
be single the rest of my life."

Mmm.
That's why I came on the show.

Like, in ten years, I'm (BLEEP) 40,
you know what I mean? It's, like...

I'll be 42.
.."Eeech!"

Like, it's crazy in my eyes.

Perfect.

I mean, I'm single at the age of 30
but I've been married before,

I've had a lot of
adult relationships.

The fact she hasn't had one, like,
to me, that's mind-blowing.

STEPHANIE: How old were you
when you first got married?

I got married at...23,
I think I was, at the time.

That's so young.
That (BLEEP) young.

How long were you together for
before you got married?

Um... In person, like, 30 days.

But we'd known each other
for two years.

It made me who I am now.

Like, yeah, no regrets.

Oh, my god. That's insane.
But, like...

So, I think there are some red flags
there. Quite a few.

And how do you feel
about a kiss shot, guys?

One.
One?

I came into this experiment wanting
someone, you know, cute and sweet.

OK. Are you ready?
I will allow one.

I still think the boss-bitch energy
is still there.

Kiss shot. Let's do it.

You only get one chance, mate.
(LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

There we go.

Tyson, you look a little awkward,
mate.

Kind of relax a bit if you can.

She came across very frigid,

you know, like, 'cause she's never
been in a relationship, right,

and she needs to
definitely change that.

Big smile, Steph.

STEPHANIE: The vibe between us
I think was good.

Like, just sort of getting to know
each other,

understand a little bit more
about each other.

Do you want kids?
Yeah.

(BLEEP) oath. Yeah.

When? How many?
Probably five would be good.

What?

Five would be nice.
Five?

Well, if you can afford it, why not?
Five kids?

Yeah.

I think it would be good
to start a big family.

(LAUGHS) Five kids is a lot.

Five. I reckon it's a good number.
Mmm. Mmm.

He definitely gives me, like,
typical, like, man, working man,

mum-stay-at-home kind of vibes.

And again.
Just a cheeky little kiss.

A kiss on the lips?

He's just giving off
that kind of energy.

Like, very, like, masculine.

Like... What's the word?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Um...

Overbearing energy.

Covered in lippy. Mmm.

Covered in red.

(BRIGHT MUSIC)

DANNY: Cheers, everyone.
BEC: Cheers, everyone.

Cheers, babe.
Cheers, Danny.

Cheers, mate.

GIA: Cheers, everybody.
SCOTT: Cheers.

Cheers.
Cheers, Luke.

Cheers, cobber.
Cheers.

BEC: How beautiful is this view!
STELLA: It's stunning.

It's stunning, isn't it?

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to
welcome the new bride and groom,

Juliette and Joel.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
JOEL: Yeah!

Whoo!

JOEL: I'm feeling a lot better.

I obviously started off
with a bit of nerves.

Oh, that's good.

Now I'm just settled.
I feel settled.

GUESTS: Aw!

Oh, yeah!
(APPLAUSE)

The lips were luscious.

He definitely has good kiss vibes.

You want a drink?
Mm-hm.

I'll get you anything you want,
baby.

I'll be your baby?
Do you want a beer?

I want a beer.

And the banter between us is good,
so I'm excited to see

what this journey is going to be.

Mm-hm.

GIA: Oh, he's a mummy's boy.

He's a mummy's boy.

Ew!

Honestly, I can't find
any saving grace for him yet.

He needs to prove himself.
No.

I want to know, like, when was
his last relationship and how...

Do it.

..what made him want to commit
to this experiment.

Say something. Say it.

JULIETTE: No, I'm pretty open
to everything...

SCOTT: Hey, Joel.

What made you want to be
a part of this experiment?

I've been ready to fall in love
for the last couple of years.

I've been single for five years
and now...

The time is right now.

Joel, what do you do for work?
Oh, sorry.

Modelling.
For what?

Kmart or Big W?
(LAUGHS)

(TENSE MUSIC)

I do editorials. I do...
(LAUGHS)

..commercial, lifestyle,
all different types.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Is Juliette the type
that you would desire?

What did you ask for? Be specific.

(SCOTT AND GIA LAUGH)

We're going in depth already.

I was, like, on the stand...

and they were, like,
cross-examining me.

Like, it was mental!

I said exotic eyes,
I said olive skin or darker

and I don't see no plastic
in that face.

(LUKE LAUGHS)

Yeah, she's beautiful.
Yeah.

So I'm very happy.

Excuse me?

Chill the (BLEEP) out, Joel.

You're no oil painting.

As Brook would say, "You're no
(BLEEP) panty-dropper."

Chill yourself out.

Wait, wait, wait. What's wrong with
plastic in the face?

'Cause I have lip injections.
What's wrong with that?

I get Botox too, actually.
We actually... We're Gold Coast.

We get injections.
What's wrong with that?

Personal preference.
I'm just not into that look.

I think women should decide, like,

what they do with their own bodies,
to be honest.

Absolutely.

BEC: What's going on here?

I can't...
I can't believe her behaviour.

Like, I don't understand why it is
that Gia feels it necessary

to come at a groom that you've never
even spoken to before.

He's definitely rubbing me
the wrong way.

MEL: (LAUGHS) Oh, me too.
Mmm.

You should just be happy that
I'm even talking to you, mate.

(LAUGHS)

It's just plain rude. It's like
she wants to have more eyes on her.

This is why you've made up that
fabricated story about my husband.

More eyes on you.

She pisses me off, man.

She's as fake as her (BLEEP) tits
and her teeth.

NARRATOR: Coming up...

Do you want to be househusband?
Hell, no!

You may as well ask me if I want to
wear a skirt around the house.

And the mother
of all wedding speeches.

And he still likes to lie on my lap
and have me scratch his back.

(GASPS)

Who says shit like that? Like,
especially at a wedding speech.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR:
At Juliette and Joel's wedding...

(GIA LAUGHS)

..Bec is still unimpressed by Gia's
need to be the centre of attention.

Am I funny? I'm pretty funny.

Do you not agree with me that...

STELLA: Yeah.

FILIP: Yeah.

But why would you do that?

Yeah, yeah.
Why are you doing that?

Adding fuel. Yeah.

But why?
Mmm.

There is definitely tensions
between Gia and Bec.

They literally didn't look at
each other for the most part today.

And this is not the first time
that Gia's been at the epicentre

of a lot of things
that have been happening,

friction between the couples.

BEC: Her and Brook bringing up
that fabricated story about him,

I'm furious.

How dare you? How dare you?

What, you saw me happy

and you wanted to bring something
out of your arsehole

to try and ruin what we've got?

I'm pissed off. I'm pissed off.

My relationship was in jeopardy
because of her.

She took something that was
so incredible between Danny and I

and tried to drive a wedge into it.

(LAUGHS)

BEC: I'm not happy about it.

FILIP: Is this something that
you could probably bounce back from

with Gia...
with a couple of difficult convos?

I don't know if I can do that
to him.

Yeah, well... Yeah, that's right,
yeah, because you're picking...

That's right,
you've got to pick a side.

No, like, yeah, it would burn you.
It would burn you.

DANNY: We have to look at
credibility.

And I'm sorry...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

You've made me look stupid,
you've diminished our relationship.

Yeah.

You've now put something out there
about him...

STELLA: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
..that isn't true.

So, how can I ever trust you
or be your friend?

BEC: I've got things to say to her

but I want to make sure
that I'm in a forum

where I can say them to her.

I have decorum.
I'm not gonna be like Gia.

I'm not going to create dramas
at someone's wedding.

If someone did that to me,
I would be devastated.

I'm not gonna do that to them.
I'm not doing it.

STELLA: Yeah.

We'll have to see.

But it's on like Donkey Kong at the
next dinner party, that's for sure.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR: At her wedding reception,

Stephanie is struggling with
the reality of marrying a stranger.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Why?

I'm freaking the (BLEEP) out
right now.

I'm very stressed.

I feel like my body is, like,
shutting down on me.

It got blown out of the water...

I haven't been on a date in so long
and now all of a sudden I'm married?

You'll be fine.

No, you don't.

(TENSE MUSIC)

I have just married this person.
I need to live with this person.

I have never lived with a person
before.

Yeah, like, I'm freaking
the (BLEEP) out. Yeah.

I know.
But that's what got you here.

Mmm.

So...
Yeah.

STEPHANIE: Yep.

Adding to Stephanie's discomfort
are Tyson's plans for a large family

(TENSE MUSIC)

Apparently we're having
five children.

(LAUGHS)

I don't know who you're having
those five kids with.

Well, what are two very driven
people gonna do with their careers

whilst you try and have babies?

Get a maid.

Um... (HALF-LAUGHS)

Yeah.

Like, I don't think
he has thought about

what having five kids would mean
for his wife.

Like, he hasn't got to
push them out.

Honestly, how hard can it be?

It's only this big.

(MAN LAUGHS)

(VOICE ECHOES) It's only this big.

He hasn't got to put his whole life
on hold to bear these children.

Like, you've just gotta feed it,
you know, take it to the toilet.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

And that's it.

I think you'll be a good dad, mate.
Actually, you'll be a great dad.

Thank you.

You will be a great dad.
Mmm.

Like, uh? It was a lot.

I honestly reckon it would be easy
to raise a kid.

Do you want to be a househusband?

Hell, no!

(LAUGHS)

Hell, no!
(LAUGHS)

A househusband?

(LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

You may as well ask me if I want to
wear a skirt around the house.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR: As Stephanie and Tyson's
wedding nears its end,

a question from his wife
has distressed Tyson.

Do you want to be a househusband?

Hell, no!

(MAN LAUGHS)

Hell, no!
(LAUGHS)

(LAUGHS)

You may as well ask me if you want
to wear a skirt around the house.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Yeah, some of the causes for
concern were discussed just before,

so just the masculinity
that she brings to the relationship,

asking me if I wanted to be
a househusband,

which shows to me that she wants to
play the dominant role

in this relationship.

It was a little bit confronting.

It could be a cause
for concern.

NARRATOR: He's hoping
a more intimate conversation

can help him understand her views.

How are you feeling?

Yeah, look, you said before...
You were probably joking.

You said before, you know,
would I consider

being a stay-at-home husband?
Yeah.

That would never happen, ever.

Yeah.

Ever. Ever, ever, ever, ever.

And then you said, "Well, you may
as well put on a skirt."

Well, I'm just saying,
that would be your next question,

'cause that's what it would
feel like.

If I was to be a stay-at-home dad,

I feel like
that's a very feminine role.

I'm the man of the relationship,
I'm the provider, the protector.

And of course, you're very driven.
Yeah.

And, you know, you're doing
very well for yourself,

but, you know, I don't want...

I don't want someone
that's gonna bring masculine energy

to a relationship.

Because if you're bringing
masculine energy

and I'm bringing masculine energy,

it's like two alpha males
are sort of colliding.

It's gonna create a storm.

STEPHANIE: There are a couple of
alarm bells going off.

I am very much central in my opinion

with regards to wokeism, MAGA,

you know, femininity.

I'm not some ultra-feminist woman
or anything like that,

but I do absolutely believe
in equality.

Are you expecting your wife's
career take a back seat to yours?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

If there's children involved, yes.
Definitely.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Mm-hm.
Mm-hm.

OK.

STEPHANIE: I'm quite surprised that
someone like him has these views.

It's giving manosphere.

If you were to get into
a relationship,

like, for instance,
with this marriage,

do you think that you would play,
like, that submissive role?

Or do you think you have that
more dominant sort of role

in the relationship?

'Cause for me...
Mmm.

..I'm bringing masculine energy
to this relationship.

Yeah.

I'm bringing the dominant
side of it, you know,

and I feel like, for me, I want
a woman that's, you know, feminine,

which obviously you are,
but somewhat submissive.

No, no, no. Not in this day and age.

Not when there's too many women
out there chasing their own goals,

because we don't live in
the bloody 1960s anymore.

Does my somewhat masculinity
make you feel...

emasculated?

I wouldn't say emasculated, no.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Is that, like...
But is that an ego thing?

You say "No, I'm not emasculated."

No. I don't think so.

He said no, which is fine.
That was his answer.

But I don't believe him.

Do you find me attractive?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

I think you're an attractive girl,
yeah.

Yeah.
I do.

Do you?
Yeah.

Yeah.
Of course.

I think you're attractive, yeah.
Mmm.

Would the masculine energy make me
unattractive to you?

A little bit. A little bit.

How much? Like, 10%?
Um...

Would it take me from, like,
a ten to a nine?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
I'll say this.

I'll just say, just, to me,
it's just, like,

I think there's nothing better than,
like, a woman

that's, you know, submissive...

Willing to take a back seat
to your life?

Well, kind of.

Kind of. Yeah. It sounds bad
when you put it like that.

Mmm.
But it's 'morely' just...

Because that's what it is, really.
Well, probably to an extent.

Yeah, it's definitely
freaking me out.

Like, I'm trying to keep my cool,
I'm trying to keep open-minded,

remind myself of why I'm here,
but it's...

It's a challenge.

(RESOUNDING MUSIC)

(GLASS TINKLES)
SCOTT: Oh... Here we go.

Thank you, everybody.

Now we are starting
the wedding speeches,

so I would love to start with Joel.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

God. Here we go.

JOEL: Thanking you.

DANNY: Looking forward to this.

Good evening, everyone,
and thank you for coming.

One thing about me is that
I have an insatiable appetite

not just for food but for life,
for love and, of course...

(IMITATES BORAT) for my wife, yes!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(LAUGHS GOOFILY)

If you haven't already picked up
on it, I'm quite an eccentric,

weird, wacky, crazy,
over-the-top kind of dude,

which means I'm smart enough
to forewarn you

about my quirks and odd behaviours
you're about to experience.

I hope you're excited
to move in with me

because I'm a real catch.

Think more along the lines
of anchovies than bluefin tuna.

(SOFTLY) What?

JOEL: I'm only joking.

I'm talking about my old self,
which was smelly and undesirable.

(LAUGHS GOOFILY)

Seriously?

You've actually scored yourself
a hygiene-obsessed, OCD neat freak.

If you don't place the TV remotes in
perfect alignment, I will notice it.

STELLA: (LAUGHS) Oh, god.

If you don't hang the hand towels
with the labels facing outwards,

perfectly level, horizontal
and centred, I will notice it.

So, yeah, living with me is fun,

unless it's spring
and my hay fever is so ferocious

you can hear me sneezing
from outer space.

And when I'm not sneezing, I'm
snorting, when every three seconds,

I have an urge to clear sewage
from my throat.

(DANNY AND BEC LAUGH)

(BLEEP). God.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Why would you say that, brother?

Ew!

Oh, that's hideous.
Oooh.

So, yeah, apart from that,
I sleep like a silent angel,

unless I can't sleep
and then I'm twisting and turning

faster than a professional
bull rider holding on for dear life.

That will, of course,
be the perfect moment for you

to sing me a lullaby at 2am.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Through highs and lows,

my loyalty will remain as strong
as my BO after a Barry's class.

Thank you.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(SOME APPLAUSE)

I think he missed the mark.

(BEC LAUGHS)

Um...

Yeah, I'm definitely a bit worried.

His speech was extremely theatrical.

I could see the faces of my mum,
my dad, my bridesmaids, my friends.

Like, everyone was a bit, like,
"What the actual (BLEEP)?"

I don't think he even mentioned love
in any of his speeches.

Like, just need to have a feeling

that this is going to be real
for him...

because I want real.

Now we will welcome Sharyn,
mother of the groom.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Thank you, everyone.

"From the very beginning, Joel was
dancing to the beat of his own drum.

"He was a baby that did not sleep
for 18 months of his life.

"He would also only feed
when he wanted to

"and refused milk from any bottle.

"He would rather starve himself,

"which turned into
the opposite problem as he got older

"and he turned into
a gluttonous pig."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

SHARYN: "From the very beginning,

"Joel was dancing to the beat
of his own drum.

"He would rather starve himself,

"which turned into
the opposite problem as he got older

"and he turned into
a gluttonous pig."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Seeing everyone's face kind of drop
during both of those speeches

was extremely not a good feeling
to feel.

"I know it's very mean of a mother
to say that to her son

"but nothing was getting through

"and to be honest,
those words didn't either,

"until Joel was ready to lose
20 kilos

"and go from Uber driver
to model to MAFS.

"Here we are today."

JULIETTE: I don't know.

I just think there was some things
where it was a bit fishy.

Maybe he's in it
for the wrong reasons.

"As a psychologist,
I needed a whole other degree

"to try and understand my child.

"I knew that I had a special soul
that I had to nurture

"and love so very tenderly.

"He was always very close to me
and to his childhood teddy

"and Joel would choose to stay home
to lie on the couch

"with his games, food and teddy.

"And not much has changed,
really, today.

"He still has his teddy
and he still likes to lie on my lap

"and have me scratch his back."

(GIA GASPS)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Oh!
That's a bit weird for me.

Oh, it's very weird.

Like, I'm close with my mum.

I'll have a cup of tea and a scone
with her

but (BLEEP) me,
I'm not gonna have (BLEEP) her

scratching my back.

That's a bit...
That's a bit too much.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

SHARYN: "But it's not all bad.

"Joel is the most lovable, adorable,
quirky, handsome,

"affectionate and loving soul
that I've ever known

"and as long as you're happy

"with having a 30-year-old teddy bea
in the bed,

"then I think you'll be alright.

"I hope you're ready, Juliette.

"Congratulations."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(SOME APPLAUSE)

JOEL: Thanks for a beautiful speech.

Thank you.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

JULIETTE: I'm pissed off.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Like, this isn't a vulnerable, like,
situation I've put myself in

for something I thought
was gonna be real.

Who says shit like that?

Like, especially at a wedding speech
with someone

who has no idea who the (BLEEP)
this guy is?

I'm here to find the love of my life

and I kind of just feel like this
whole thing has been, like, a joke

and a theatrical performance.

I'm just a joke-maker, you know.

Yeah.
Obviously that's a joke.

Like, clearly that's not serious.
I'm just (BLEEP) joking.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

NARRATOR: Tomorrow night...

MAN: I'm a farmer and a gym owner.

MAN: I'm a fitness trainer by trade
but I am happiest outside.

..it's one of the most incredible
matches the experiment's ever seen.

I feel like I've put my career first
but now I want to focus on this.

I have thrown myself into my career
but now I'm ready to put love first.

I know, right? I know.

The final couple to enter
this year's experiment.

ALISSA: Stop!

The original couples celebrate
their first milestone.

SCOTT: There's no other way
to explain our relationship

but for us to be just extra.

And Julia drops
an unexpected bombshell...

"That burning desire
doesn't seem to be growing."

..leaving Grayson in shock.

GRAYSON: It's... It's hard.

And then...

TYSON: My rig is a lot of
maintenance. It's like a Ferrari.

..Stephanie and Tyson's honeymoon
goes from bad...

Is it the situation or is it me?

I'd probably say it's you.

..to worse...

I don't want a slave for a wife.

Alls I want is just
a submissive wife.

..as Stephanie butts heads
with her opinionated new husband.

Anyway...
Wow.

My blood is boiling. I don't know
who he thinks he is.
