♪ Time is running to stop me ♪

♪ I run faster ♪

AJ, who do you choose?

♪ And you know I'm gonna take
all the glory, so be ready ♪

Marie.

♪ You can try and stop me ♪

♪ You can try to end me ♪

♪ Give it everything you've got ♪

[AJ] I choose you, Marie,

because there's just
so much you can show me

about bringing
my best version of myself out.

I could see myself marrying you one day

because you have so much to offer.

And I just hope that you see
that, no matter what,

you're going to get 100%.

[Marie] Thank you.

♪ I am unstoppable ♪

I'm not happy.

I was so set on the connection
that I had with you.

I had less dates
than other people because, like,

I was just following my heart.

And that sucks because I was,
like, almost robbed of the experience.

I came here looking for someone
who would tell me

that, like, they can care for me
and, like, be romantic for me.

I was so set and focused on

what I thought was going to be…

special.

Now I feel stupid.

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

[Marita] I mean, it's… Every date I had
with you, I was just thinking about that,

and, like, not focusing
on… the other people.

[dramatic music playing]

You were vulnerable
and authentic to yourself.

-Yeah, that's valid.
-You did what was true to you.

I would like to comment, if that's okay.

I'm sorry, that was never my intention.

I created a bond with you,
and that to me was real.

I don't want you to ever think that
my connection with you was just bullshit

because that wasn't the case.

I still feel things for you.

I just feel more for someone else
in this moment.

In the past, I've just been with people
who tell me exactly what I want to hear

because they're attracted to me.

You were like, "This is what I can do
for you romantically,"

and you know why I'm here.

You were always at the top.

For me, it was like you were telling me
exactly what I wanted to hear

so that you would stay at the top.

Never that.

Okay. We've all been through a lot.

I know this has been
a really intense week,

and I know being vulnerable
is so difficult.

And I just want to commend you all
because what you're doing is very brave,

and I just have so much respect
for each and every one of you.

We're moving on to Pilar.

Throughout this process, I've been
connecting a lot with Bridget and Kyle.

[JoAnna] Okay.

That's interesting.

-Spicy!
-[all laughing]

Let's dig in.

[laughter continues]

Who do you want to start with?

-I'll start with Bridget.
-[JoAnna] Okay.

-[Pilar] Every date we've had has just…
-[Bridget giggles]

Time just flew by, and we're like, "What?"

We're just so aligned on so many things.

By the end, we're, like,
finishing each other's sentences.

I was like, "I feel the same way"

-on everything.
-[JoAnna] Mm-hmm.

And she just has
this hilarious sense of humor.

Like, I was cackling during our dates.

[Bridget giggling]

You know,
I came into this experience with Kyle,

and I feel like our dates
consisted of talking about

how I feel like you'd be
a great match for my ex.

But we were also forming
our own connection

and, like, having a great time as well.

Our reasons for being here
feel kind of similar

and aligned and what
we want out of this experience.

I feel like a relationship with you
would be a lot more of that spontaneity

that sometimes I, like,
crave more with Kyle.

And I feel like that would just make you
an incredible partner.

Okay, Kyle.

Kyle really snuck up on me
and surprised me.

On our first date,
I didn't really think she liked me,

so I was really excited.

Our chemistry just, like,
exponentially grew.

Every time, I just wanted more and more.

And I found we're just so aligned
down to fundamentals of what we want,

like our future, our interests.

But we are different.

And because she's issuing an ultimatum,
I've received an ultimatum,

I ultimately think
that she would challenge me

and help me grow.

That makes me feel really good.

I feel very seen by you,
and I feel the same way.

So I'm glad that you felt
what I was feeling.

There's an energy between us

that is very, like… enticing.

It's scary, but also exciting.

You're really interesting to talk to.

I feel like I'm surprised,
you know, every moment.

You've had such a long relationship,

and so you bring with that,
like, a lot of experience.

There'll be a lot more connecting deeper

than there was
in my previous relationship.

Pilar, are you ready to make a choice?

-I'm ready.
-[JoAnna] Okay.

Pilar, who do you choose?

[tense music playing]

I choose Kyle.

There's a lot of qualities in Kyle

that I would want in a future partner.

What I love most about you is
that you know who you are,

what you want, where you're going.

I have a lot to learn from you,

and I have no doubt in my mind
you'd make an amazing future wife.

Kyle, are you ready to make a choice?

I am.

Kyle, who do you choose?

Um…

I choose Pilar,

because we complement
each other really well,

and I don't feel
like you're a safe choice.

It will be a really good test.

You know, I wanted Kyle
to be with somebody

who would test, you know,
whether it is me that she wants,

or if it's just a secure relationship
that she wants.

You know, hopefully,
it doesn't come back to bite me.

Okay.

[all laughing]

So, did you connect with anyone else?

Ashley, I feel like we both feel like
we came out of left field for each other,

and it was unexpected,
but at the same time,

you do have this just
self-assured confidence.

And I just get this honest
and authentic energy from you.

It made me feel I could trust you,

and you did issue the Ultimatum.

You have this readiness and this maturity

that would be really cool
to have in a partner.

Bridget, you also have this confidence
about you that's so amazing.

Like, you are so,
like, authentically yourself.

The communication with Bridget
is just so good,

and it was crazy that in a room full of,
like, all these great personalities,

you saw me, because sometimes in the past
with Marita, I get in my head about

maybe standing out in my own way,

but I feel like with Bridget,
it just felt good to know

that we are so different, but, like,

we matched up
in so many other ways as well.

Bridget, are you ready to make a choice?

I am.

[JoAnna] Bridget, who do you choose?

I choose Ashley.

In a lot of ways,
this is a really easy decision for me.

You are really kind and super authentic,

and that would just be incredible
in a partner.

Ashley, are you ready to make a choice?

Yeah.

Ashley, who do you choose?

I'm going to choose Bridget.

I'm choosing you because,
honestly, I would love to see

where our connection can go.

I feel you're confident in yourself,

and, like, I want my partner
to be fulfilled within themselves

so that we can keep
filling each other's cup

and just have that energy for each other.

I also think that you're going to
push me in different ways

that… I'm not sure about yet,
but I'm excited to find out.

Thank you. We have another couple.

-[Marita] My head is just crazy right now.
-All over the place?

I'm constantly thinking about
what I did have

and… if it was enough.

[JoAnna] I appreciate you sharing.

I think you're gonna have
some good clarity over the next few weeks.

All right.

-Haley.
-Hi.

How was your week?

I came in as, like, an Ultimatum giver,

thinking that, like, my ex had, you know,

the work to do to meet me where I was at,

but it has really opened my eyes that
there's a lot of work I can also do

to, like, show up as my best self
should we move forward with marriage

or a marriage between someone else.

Who did you make connections with
this week?

[Haley] Magan.

We both clearly picked up
on a vibe immediately.

It was like, yeah,
I enjoyed talking to you.

It just went very naturally,
and we were able to get really deep

on topics that I wasn't expecting.

I love how comforting you feel.

I can be vulnerable,
you can be vulnerable,

and it is, like, a very safe space.

You're able to be serious,
but then still bring the fun into it.

It's really nice to hear you say that.

I really appreciate that.

Honestly, this week was a lot harder
than I ever thought it was gonna be.

I couldn't really think clearly,

and it was very hard for me
splitting with my partner.

I wasn't surrendering to the process.

Until I finally surrendered.
I was able to really open my eyes

that I needed a change,

and I think that this is
such an opportunity to do so.

Oftentimes that kind of clarity
and self-reflection comes with time.

Now, obviously this is
a very intense process,

but that in itself
is a very admirable quality.

It's certainly one that I think
would be very desirable in a partner.

I mean, I have to say, that's impressive.

-Thank you.
-[JoAnna laughs]

-It wasn't easy.
-[all laughing quietly]

[Magan] Haley, your want
to just, like, be on the same page,

whatever it is you got to do,

to just keep that team-family mentality
to move forward as a unit

is just something so amazing.

It's something that, like,
I want for a partner.

I'm just, like, really excited to see
our progress and how things go,

because a lot of our belief systems

and, like, the way that we do things
are so in line.

I'm really thankful for that.

Haley, are you ready to make a choice?

-Yes.
-[JoAnna] Okay.

Haley, who do you choose?

[Haley] I choose Magan.

I've seen a lot in past relationships

of what it looks like
to be with yin and yang,

and I am curious what it would be like,
being on the same wavelength in that way.

It's something
that is very exciting to me.

I really want to feel safe
and protected by someone.

I want to feel like
we are kind of like us against the world.

I feel like I can see that with you.

Magan, are you ready to make a choice?

Yes.

Magan, who do you choose?

I choose Haley.

When we had our first date,
I feel like I knew right away.

I've never dated anybody like you.

I feel like no matter what happens,
I'm always going to have you by my side,

there to support me
and just so curious to understand.

I think your sense of communication
is something that would be amazing for me

because I'm big on communication myself.

I could picture marrying you someday.

We have another couple.

Does anyone have anything to say
about this couple?

[Dayna] I feel emotional. But I have
no choice but to, like, get through it.

Do you know what I mean?
I literally have to.

Who are some people you made
connections with this week?

I think Mel has challenged me
more than anyone else here.

I feel like you understand me.
I can be who I am around you.

I'm not scared of judgment.

I do hate being vulnerable,

and I feel like
you have pushed me into that

probably more than I let most people.

Magan is happy
to make everyone else happy,

and Mel is more like me.

We are stubborn.

As much as, like, I know it may be…
not the easiest three weeks,

I really feel like
I can learn something from her,

because we will have to change the way
that we behave if we want to get along.

Okay. How does that make you feel?

It's what I thought I would hear her say.

It's a little nicer, honestly.

[all laughing]

It makes me feel really good
to hear that, for sure,

because I feel, like, a similar way.

So, this week,
I definitely made two connections.

One with Britney, the other with Dayna.

So, Britney and I connected because
she was, like, really easy to talk to.

I always felt like
she was listening to me.

I just felt like we were able
to communicate in a way that was safe.

That's different.

I think my ex and I have
a lot of trouble communicating.

Britney, I think that you have this energy
where, like, if you walk into a room,

you kind of hold it by the balls,
and I love that.

And you are absolutely beautiful.

Thank you.

I don't know. Something about you
gives me this wild, like, free energy.

Like, you're very, like, I don't know,
like, with the shits. [laughs]

And I think you challenge me
in those ways,

like, making me not scared.

You'd see that
I'm overthinking and stressing,

and you're like, "It's okay.
You're gonna be good, you got this."

So, that would be great to kind of push me

and open my mind and my experiences
to things that I've never tried.

[JoAnna] All right. Let's move to Dayna.

[Mel] From the moment
that Dayna and I met,

I looked at her and said
that she would be trouble.

And she kind of, like, was taken aback.

She gave me that look she's giving me now.

What I really meant by that was
it would be trouble for me,

and I feel like it has,

specifically because I feel like
I have trouble communicating

in a way that you need,

but you say things in a way where

I really want to talk to you,
and I want to have you learn about me,

whereas I don't really feel that way
about a lot of people.

And you don't think of me as negative
for being like that.

That was something
my ex and I struggled with.

When I thought I was being real,
she would feel I'm being negative,

and it kind of hurt me to hear.

You are a triple threat.

I think you're a beautiful mind,
body, and soul.

-Thank you.
-[Mel] Um…

You're intriguing to me.

-[JoAnna] Dayna.
-[Dayna laughs]

Are you ready to make a choice?

[Dayna] Um…

Yeah.

Dayna, who do you choose?

Um…

I'm gonna choose Mel.

It's very risky in so many different ways.

It's gonna be a challenge.
It's gonna be hard.

But I think we see each other

in a way that I don't feel
like anyone else sees me.

You have the capacity and the personality

to really push me in ways that
I don't think I've been pushed before.

-Thank you.
-Yeah.

Britney, are you ready to make a choice?

I suppose so.

Britney, who do you choose?

I choose Mel,

because we've gotten to know each other
so deeply within all of our dates,

and I feel our energy and vibe

is just so natural,

and we can be great together.

-[JoAnna] Thank you.
-Thank you.

Mel, are you ready to make a choice?

I am.

[tense music playing]

[JoAnna] Mel, who do you choose?

[Mel] I choose…

Dayna

to be my trial marriage wife.

I'm scared.

[laughter]

[Mel] Yeah, me too.

Honestly.

[Mel] I chose you because
you weren't the safe choice at all,

and I think that's why
I was so drawn to pick you.

[JoAnna] Thank you.

Everyone has had a chance to choose,
but two of you are still not paired up.

Marita, Britney, now is your opportunity
to make a choice for yourself.

Do you agree to choose each other
and fully commit to the Ultimatum?

-I don't know. I'm blanking right now.
-[JoAnna] You're blanking?

Yeah, I am. It's kind of a lot,
but I'm down. I'm with it.

[Marita] Yeah, I guess so.

I know this is super unconventional,

and it's not like you guys
got time to spend,

but who knows, you might find

that the person that you kind of
weren't looking for in the beginning

could be the person
that you needed in the end.

[Marita] I'm excited
for our journey together, so…

-Yeah. I think it'll be fun.
-[Marita] Yeah.

I'm very excited for all of you,

because I know
it's going to be life-changing.

We now have six brand-new couples.

Pilar and Kyle,

Dayna and Mel,

Bridget and Ashley,

AJ and Marie,

Haley and Magan,

and Britney and Marita.

I have some engagement rings for you.

An engagement ring
is a symbol of commitment.

You're each welcome to take one with you
if you choose.

In each couple,
you have chosen each other,

and you have committed
to one another in a trial marriage.

Over the next three weeks,

you are going to have
an accelerated experience

designed to show you what being married
to your new partner would be like.

You'll move in together.

You'll tackle difficult conversations
that some people never have,

even after they're married.

Then, after three weeks,

you will have the exact same experience
with the person that you came here with.

The terms of the Ultimatum are very clear.

At the end, you will each
have to decide for yourself

who you want to spend
the rest of your life with.

Will you leave here engaged?

Will you leave here alone?

Or will you leave here with someone new?

Okay, everyone, good luck.

[Britney] I'm going to cry. Thank you.

And welcome to your potential future.

[Dayna] I feel so lucky to have Mel.

I'm really learning
that in a relationship,

I don't want someone
who'll shy away from a challenge,

run away when things get hard.

I want someone who's brave and fearless.

All the things that I find attractive,
Mel offers.

I feel like that's someone
I could spend my life with.

Like, wow. This is, like, very real.

[Magan] I can't help but have
these insanely strong feelings

that I am being abandoned,

and Dayna is starting
with someone different.

But when Haley was talking
about the things that she liked about me,

it makes me feel special.

There's just a lot we have in common,

so I'm just excited to see
what the possibilities are.

[Britney] I feel like it's quite ironic
that Marita, who I'm now defaulted with,

chose my ex.

And not only chose my ex,
but said she was falling for my ex.

And now AJ seems, like,
passionate about Marie now? Like,

where did all these emotions come from?

I don't know how this is all
gonna turn out, so I'm scared.

I'm feeling a lot of emotions right now.

[Dayna] Wow.

[Mel] How cute.

-[Dayna] What are these?
-[Mel laughs]

[Mel] It's the slippers, roomie.

[Dayna] What are these?

-[Mel] This is literally me.
-Puzzles of us?

-[Mel] Oh my God, it's you.
-I know.

These are so cool.

-[Mel] You do both of them.
-I've never seen these before.

-[Mel] This place is so cute.
-Okay. It is so cute.

We're going to live here for three weeks.
First of all, give me a hug.

[Dayna] Are you seriously okay though?

I know that was so hard
hearing a lot of the stuff we had to hear.

-[Mel] It sucks.
-It does suck.

The most shitty part
is just hearing someone…

-[Dayna] Talk about your ex?
-Yeah.

[Dayna] When your ex is like,
"This person is amazing."

-[Mel] Yeah.
-And you're like, "I'm amazing."

[both laugh]

[Dayna] This is so cute!

[Mel] Scared of heights?

[Dayna] Hell no.

[Mel] Good.

Do you think you made the right choice?

I feel it is the right choice.

I had a feeling about you since I met you.

We were always going to end up together.

I know who you are.
That we're gonna be, like, comfort.

Whatever is going to happen organically,
I want it to happen organically.

I'm just going to live this
as authentically as possible…

[Mel] Yeah.

…and try to get everything we can
out of each other.

I think that there truly is

-so much to learn from one another.
-I agree.

If we were very open-minded to each other
in this whole experience,

we could figure out a lot of shit together

for ourselves, for each other.

I do think highly of you.

Whether or not you feel like
I've maybe expressed that,

if I were to get you to trust me,
I could bring out a different side of you.

I agree.

[gentle pop music playing]

I'm so happy that the dating is done with.

I'm personally not one

-to date multiple people at once.
-Yeah.

It was a lot. It was a lot of emotions,

a lot of people's feelings
getting involved.

I'm, like, so sorry for how everything…

I don't want to say played out,
because I'm really glad how it played out.

-Because we're here right now, right?
-Yeah. Yeah.

But still, that whole thing just, kind of,
like, turned me off completely.

I was just like, I don't really understand
what you guys are seeing right now,

because I've never seen that out of you.

Nor did you ever give me that vibe.

I really do appreciate you.

It just felt special that,
to even just have you say,

"Hey, like, I want you."

I like AJ a lot.

She makes me feel very calm and safe
in this brand new, scary setting.

We're sharing space
and I've known you for a week.

But maybe that's the point,

to let go and see what happens.

What do you eat for breakfast?

I'm huge on omelets.

So if you can make a mean omelet,
that's amazing.

I don't know how my omelet skill is,
but my scramble skill is good.

Are you a wet scramble or a hard scramble?

I like them a little brown, so yeah,
I guess scramble well, I guess.

-Scramble… well?
-Well.

-Scrambled well.
-Hard? Yeah.

-No.
-What?

I guess. It's like the same thing,

but in my computer

-at work, it's "scrambled well."
-"Scrambled well."

-I swear.
-What do you think this is? Meat?

[laughing] Let me pick up a shift
and then I'll send you a picture.

Damn, okay.

So. Do you normally, like,
shower in the morning or at night?

-Night.
-Same.

I'm the type of person that, number one,
outside clothes on the bed, not.

Um, shoes at the door.

The second I put my shoe on this rug,
I was like, "Oh."

[both laughing]

-No, I saw it. I saw it.
-I was like, "Oh."

And I was like, "Ooh. I like that."

It made me tingle a little bit.

That was a happiness tingle.

-[Marie] Oh!
-Um…

Do you have a lot of pairs of shoes?

I left, like, a good chunk
of my shoes at home.

And yet there's a whole bin

-in that closet.
-Shh…

-There's a whole bin.
-[AJ laughs]

What are those? I should have brought
my work Crocs with me.

How do you wear your Crocs?
Do you put them in sport mode?

-No.
-Gotta put them in sport mode!

You think I'm going anywhere in a hurry?
You're out of your mind.

[Marie laughing]

It feels special that me and Marie
have committed to each other.

She's just someone that I absolutely,
positively could see myself marrying.

Do you like red?

Um, red wine?

-[Marita] Yes. [laughs]
-Oh, oh.

-Do you like the color?
-I dunno what you're referring to. Yeah.

Um, I do like red wine.

-All right.
-Mm-hmm.

-Okay.
-Yeah, you go for it.

-You want me to?
-Yeah.

So, how are you feeling…

-Um…
…about everything?

I'm feeling…
I don't even know how I'm feeling…

-Yeah.
-…to be honest.

I'm honestly super excited.

And I feel like I was pushed into a corner
with, like, the choices that I did have.

[Britney] Mm-hmm.

And I'm honestly relieved,
if I can say that,

that my first choice wasn't what happened.

I mean, I know she's your ex.

Ironically.

-Watch me break this cork.
-Look at this. I got you.

I got you. We're gonna…

What? What do I do?

Try to wiggle it. Yeah, there we go.

-Or I can do it.
-[cork pops]

-[Marita] Oh!
-You got it.

[Marita] I don't know.
Everything happens for a reason.

Yeah, I think so too.

-But, cheers to our first night.
-Cheers.

-I know.
-This is crazy. This is amazing.

We're married.

-We're married.
-I love it.

Oh my gosh.

-Here we are.
-I know.

We got to start from, like, square one.

[Britney] Yeah. We had,
like, a little ten-minute chat.

-Yeah.
-That's it. Yeah.

-So, you gave the Ultimatum.
-I did.

What are you looking for
in terms of this trial marriage?

Is there anything specific?

I know what you're looking for.
I've heard it.

Romance. And sweet things.

I'm like, "Okay.
Let me bring out my zaddy energy."

And try to be, you know, try to, you know,

make you feel appreciated like you…

-Yeah.
-You deserve.

I always have this, like,
thing in my head about love.

And, like, how I want
to be treated in a relationship.

That I'm constantly trying to chase,
and I'm kind of sick of it.

It is attainable to, like,

have at least someone…
somewhat cater to your love language.

And I think your love language
is very romantic and it's very intimate.

And I don't know if your ex was
giving that to you, and it seems like not.

I want just for you to understand,
like, that exists.

I hope that I'm able to show that to you
during our three weeks together.

Maybe if we can do little cute things…

-I'm trying to think of what we can do.
-You are?

Even if it's not up to your par,
I'm trying.

I don't have a par.

Just a bit better
than what you had before.

That's better than nothing.
Okay. Great. [laughs]

At this point, I think I'm just going to
focus on my new trial marriage wife.

But I'm just overwhelmed
by how everything played out.

And it just seems like everyone
was just sprung over AJ.

I'm just trying to, like,
digest all of that.

And also mentally prepare myself

for walking away
from this experience alone.

We're going to just U-Haul it
without even two minutes.

-I don't know if that's a record.
-I think this is a freaking record.

They need to put it
in the Guinness World Record book.

-Well, cheers to our marriage.
-And our first night in our new home.

-Yeah.
-[both laugh]

I'm really happy
I get to do this with you.

-I know, same.
-I'm excited.

It was like a rocky road to get here,
but like, I'm happy where it…

And I'm, like, honestly just so relieved
that that portion is over.

I think, like, the build-up to it had me,

like, literally, like, stressing so bad.

-I was overthinking everything.
-Yeah.

I could tell you were stressed.

Yeah, things happened with AJ
and then Marita.

I could just read it on your face.

Exactly what Marita said tonight about AJ.

She was her number one this whole time.

I knew when she said that
exactly where she was coming from

because I know how she is.

And I don't necessarily agree
that AJ robbed her of her time.

I think that when Marita just, like,
goes in, she's like all in.

-But I don't know AJ, so I can't sit here.
-Yeah, I know.

I had one conversation with her.

How do you feel about Kyle right now?
Do you feel, like, weird?

-Yeah, definitely. Like…
-Okay.

I feel, like, so weird
that I pushed them together

-and now it's like, why did I do that?
-Right?

Because obviously it doesn't feel great
to hear that they had good energy

and had an attraction.

I don't really know
what to make of that. So…

Yeah, I wouldn't either.
That's like… kind of frightening.

Yeah, it's, like,
not what I wanted to hear.

But… yeah, so it's all like playing
in my head on a loop.

-But I'm trying not to think about it.
-Oh my God, I'm so sorry.

Even just tonight,
hearing everything you had to say

and everybody else had to say,

I feel like it makes sense for us
to be in a trial marriage together.

I agree. Yeah.

I was really only nervous with you

because, like, you like,
weren't ready to get married.

And your opinion could change,
my opinion could change.

-Yeah.
-Like, I don't know.

I'm just excited to get to know you
on a lighter level.

See where our relationship goes
because it's so new and so fresh.

It's so wild.

Like, are you going to be comfortable
sleeping in the same room?

I mean, I am if you are.

-Okay.
-I'm very like, yeah. I'm whatever.

How does this place compare
to where you live?

This is smaller.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

-This is an upgrade for me.
-Really? Where do you live?

Well, no, I live in a house. But…

You live in a house? Okay.

It's, like, different.
This has a lot more amenities.

There's a coffee bar.

That I'm excited about.

Maybe I'll learn how to use the gym.

-That'll be what I do.
-I can teach you.

Yeah. I'm ready to, like, put the past
in the past and just, like, focus on us.

Yeah.

Are you feeling nervous about anything?

No, I'm excited to know all about you.

I agree. Yeah.

I know. I haven't even, like,
seen you with your hair up.

Yeah. You're going
to see that tonight. [laughs]

Slouchy, hair up, no makeup.

[Kyle] Wow. I can't wait. I'm excited.

[Pilar laughs]

What are you doing tomorrow?

With you. I don't know.

Do you have anything that you want to hit?

-I want to go to the beach.
-Yeah.

-I'm going to figure it out.
-Yeah. Perfect.

We can see the city.
It's going to be good.

It'll be fun. Yeah.

I think we have to address
the elephant in the room.

-Is there one?
-Yeah.

How are you supposed to shit
in front of someone

that you're just dating
on, like, week one?

-Yeah.
-That's, like, month six for me.

[both laughing]

Kyle, she seems like
she's a little nervous,

a little anxious.

Like maybe Kyle is regretting her choice.

I don't know. I hope not.

Because I feel there's
a lot worth exploring there.

All right. Well, you're stuck with me.

Do you sleep on a certain side of the bed?

Window-side.

-Your what?
-Window-side.

Why is that again?

If someone were to come in
and, like, look over you,

like, they would come
from this way, you know?

-Okay. I guess.
-[Pilar laughs]

It's an irrational fear.

-I'm being taken out and then you're next?
-No, no, no. Because then I would…

You would…

I would defend.

Do you have an electric toothbrush or…?

I do. What kind of question is that?

-I was just wondering.
-Do you not?

No, I do. Well, I was thinking about…

I don't know where mine is.

Do you want to share?

No!

[Pilar laughs]

I feel like you don't lose your stuff.

I try really hard not to,

but I do lose cards, keys.

Recently, I went to throw the garbage out,

the garbage in one hand,
my keys and my wallet in one hand.

And I threw it down the chute.
It wasn't even like my own personal--

-No, you did not.
-Yeah, through my apartment chute. Yeah.

-Luckily, it was sitting…
-I would never picture you

to dump your keys down the chute.

Really?

Yes, you seem so put together.

I'm not.

Oh my God,
you're sleeping with your socks.

[Kyle] I'm not asleep yet.

I literally told you I keep socks on.

This is weird.

-I'm going to wear my pajama socks.
-It's definitely strange.

No, it's not.

I feel like I'm going
to sleep really well. This bed is comfy.

Do you sleep on your back normally?

-No. I'm like smushed. My face is like…
-Yeah, yeah.

-I'm usually like a…
-Mm-hmm.

[Pilar] Yeah.

I've never had a bed this big.

There's, like,
so much room for activities.

One thing that I keep thinking about,
I do snore.

That's okay, 'cause I talk in my sleep.

-Good. Okay, great.
-[Magan laughs]

Is it loud?

It's better now, but now what I do

that's potentially weirder than snoring

is I mouth tape.

-Usually.
-Okay.

And just tape my mouth closed
at night and that helps the snoring.

-Really?
-Yeah.

But it does, like, feel a little bit
like you're a hostage.

I was going to say,
does it feel like you're kidnapped?

If you ever hear me sleep talk,
sometimes it is a little bit intense.

I'm not even, like, exaggerating.

-Like sometimes…
-Do you have an example?

Yeah. Sometimes I'll be like,
"I fucking told you."

Something like that. It's never pleasant.

I have spoken back
if somebody else is sleep talking.

So we might just, like,
have a conversation.

Just be talking all day, all night.
[laughs]

What else? I'm very excited
to get back into eating better.

Same. Do you, like, work out too?

Yeah, I do really like to go to the gym.

I will say, like, you being
a personal trainer, very intimidating.

-No, don't be.
-I don't do everything right.

Do your thing. Don't worry about me.

I won't be watching you.
Like, if you want…

-Like, "Your form is terrible."
-Right?

"Ass to grass."

Yeah. [laughs]

I'm just so excited to do everything.

This is an experience
that I'm so grateful to have.

And I'm so thankful
it was you that chose me.

There's nobody else
I'd want to do this with.

Today is probably the best I've felt…

-Good. Which is crazy.
-…since coming to Florida.

Yeah.

I'm so happy.

I'm excited. I wouldn't have
wanted to do this with anyone else.

as much as I can with you.

I want to get to know you.
