'Where Love Lives' by Alison Limerick

Previously on Love Island...

..12 sexy singles arrived in paradise.

And first impressions... I now want you to rate each other.

You've been selected.

If you two could just swap round for me?

You at the top. Thanks, guy!

Swap. Aw!

Girls, from most to least, head over and join your boys.

Thanks. We're both down near the bottom.

..created their couples.

The grafting began...

If you would've had to couple up with someone, who would you...?

It would be you. Was it? 100%.

Would you couple up with me? Yeah.

Your lips are crazy.

And the way you're looking at me, it's like, "What is she thinking?"

But a special delivery from Essex...

Was sent in... You what?

..to shock. What?

Surely not! That's Joey Essex.

My God.

What are you saying, boys?

Joey Essex has just walked into the villa.

Genius left-field booking or embarrassing security breach?

Put it this way,

the front door guard has been placed on indefinite leave.

Hello, Joey. Welcome to the Love Island villa.

What are you doing here? Are you looking for love?

I'm looking for love, Maya. No, this isn't happening. What?

And, yeah, this is the perfect place for me to be.

Like, there's no other place but Love Island to find love, so...

Aw. That's nice. ..I'm here. Yeah.

So, it's not a passing visit. Nah. He's actually here.

Yay! Staying here for good, baby!

So, Joey, you have six gorgeous girls in front of you.

Do you like what you see?

I do like what I see, yeah, quite a lot, actually.

Anyone given you a little twinkle in your eye yet?

Yeah, yeah, course. Yeah.

I see a little twinkle in someone's eye, for sure.

Well, Joey, in 24 hours,

you will have the opportunity to steal one of these beautiful girls.

Sick.

But with great power comes great responsibility,

because the boy left single after your decision...

will be dumped from the island immediately.

That's raw.

Enjoy the next 24 hours in the villa, everyone,

because for one of you boys, it will be your last.

Bye for now. Enjoy.

Nice to meet you, mate. What's your name?

Ronnie. Joey. Lovely to meet you, man.

Nice to meet you, mate. I'm Ciaran. Ciaran?

Nice to meet you. Joey, bro. Nice to meet you.

How are you, OK? Yeah, nice to see you. You too.

Nice to meet you. I'm Jess. Nice to meet you. Joey.

Nice to meet you, I'm Nicole. Nice to meet you. Nicole, yeah?

OK. Nice to meet you, Nicole. Hello.

What's happening, bro? Munveer.

Yeah, that jacket's hard. I like that, man.

Obviously Joey coming in, the boys are scrambling.

He ain't very good looking.

That's a complete lie.

We're all shitting ourselves, to be honest.

Girls, what is going on?!

Nice to meet you. Hello. Mimii.

Two kisses, is it, Mimii? Mwah.

Joey Essex might be the biggest plot twist to happen on Love Island.

The boys are definitely shaking a little bit, you know.

I could sense a little bit of tension. Joey...

I could hear a little bit of, "no, no."

I was thinking, "Yeah." It's peak. Sorry, guys.

Come on, girls, come on down. I did not expect that, did you?

Talk about bombshell. Talk about first bombshell. Woo!

I'm just glad... I'm just glad it's not a girl.

It's a boy, it's a boy. It's not a girl, it's not a girl.

It's a boy, it's a boy, it's a boy, it's a boy, it's a boy!

We can chill now. Right, can we just...

Yeah, who fancies him? Come on, guys, put your hands...

Guys, hands up if you fancy Joey Essex.

No, I do, but, like, I think there's got to be more to it.

Like, he comes across a bit... No, I like him.

Well, no, ain't you, like... Do you know what I mean?

I'm looking for someone... I'm looking for a future wife.

Do you know what I mean?

I'm not looking for no side ting or just, like, part-time ting.

I can't believe I've got to break one of you boys up, man.

I can't lie, when I heard that, I said, "Pardon?"

But, on that note, I'm gonna go talk to the girls, but don't get shook.

LAUGHTER I'll come with you.

Joey Essex coming in is definitely a curveball.

I think he's got eyes for a few girls,

so I'm a bit nervous, I can't lie.

- Girls! - Hi!

Did you see who he was waving for? Like, he said your girl.

LAUGHTER Touch wood.

My God, it smells so nice here. Smells like flowers.

That's just our aroma. How are you lot, then? What's going on?

All right, yeah.

Just been chatting about you. Have you?

Hopefully positive things, good things. We'll see. We'll see.

So, tell me. Where are youse all from?

What are you saying? You're definitely a Scouser, you are.

For sure. South Wales. Wait, wait. South Wales?

I'm terrible with geography. Is that Cardiff?

Yeah, there's Cardiff and Swansea. It's in between.

How are you boys feeling about that, though?

It is what it is. It is what it is.

I've enjoyed my time here already, so I'm ready to go.

I'll just message you on the outside!

I think the main thing about it is he can choose anyone. No question.

The thing is as well, it's just his choice.

It's not like the girls can turn round and go, "No."

I mean, they probably wouldn't! I mean, I'm 21.

You can't just take my bird like that. Give me a chance.

I wanted to come here and just feel free and just enjoy myself

and just get to know everyone on a level.

And also, I want people to get to know me on a level as well

just for who I am as a person, do you know what I mean?

What do you want to get out of it? Love. Yeah? I hope so, yeah.

Obviously, people have come out of here with a wife,

know what I mean? Kids and families.

I have got to nick someone's girl.

I'm not really gonna feel that bad about doing it.

That's what I'm here for.

Priority for me is to find a girl that I have a connection with

and, yeah, I get on with.

I'm 33, so I'm actually ready, very ready...

I'm in my prime. I'm ready for this, know what I mean?

Do you want babies and all that? Yeah. I love kids.

So, yeah, here I am on Love Island. Well done.

Making dreams come true! Sick.

Right, time for the first game of the series

and it's dares with a twist, because in this one,

the Islanders each have to pick a random phone out of a box.

I was at a party in Mayfair where we did a bit of phone swapping.

I ended up in a hotel room with a lovely chap called Gruber.

Such soft hands.

Nicole. I knew that was gonna be me. Shut up!

Come on!

"Fake an orgasm for 30 seconds."

Nicole! Nicole! Nicole! Nicole!

My God! I can't do any more.

Keep going, keep going, keep going. OK.

That's mortifying!

Mimii.

"Snog the Islander you would rather be coupled up with."

It's too silly!

Harriett.

Come on, then.

"Choose an Islander of the opposite sex to give a lap dance to."

You're a dancer! This better be good.

Wow...

Thought she was gonna stop, then she turns around and she keeps going.

And then I thought she was definitely...

then she turns round and gives me a little peck.

Ayo!

Ooh...

"Snog two Islanders that you would most like to have a threesome with."

My God...

I feel bad now!

I felt bad, but it was kind of good at the same time.

At the same time.

So it was nice, refreshing.

You know I'm coming there.

It is passionate. That's real love.

We're watching something happen, right here, right now.

It just got so real, so quick. Yeah, I'll give him his accolades.

He's a good kisser.

Joey boy! Give it to me. Tell me.

Give me the most juice.

"Snog the three Islanders you fancy the most for ten seconds each."

Wow, OK. Who wants to get snogged?

Joey, that's ten seconds, boy!

I had a little kiss with Joey. Which was a lot of teeth.

Go on, crazy...

OK...

Mr Essex is a very good kisser and he's very attractive.

That's all I'm gonna say right now.

And... Let's go, let's go.

There's a good chance one of us is going home come tomorrow,

but we'll have to wait and see.

Right now, there's a few nervous heads.

Straight in! Straight in!

The dares game is well and truly underway.

Don't be too much longer, guys, my toddler needs the pink potty back,

it's nearly time for plopsies!

Patsy.

Seductively suck the fingers or toes

of the two Islanders you fancy the most.

OK, cool, everyone can keep their shoes on,

because there is no toes going in my mouth tonight.

Munveer, give me a finger. Yeah!

She's choking on it! Are you all right?!

Cheers united.

She left it a little bit soggy, I'm not gonna lie.

It looks like I've been in the bath for about 10 hours.

THEY CHEER Ooh!

That was nice!

He won't wash his hands for weeks now.

Was that seductive? I think it was. Yeah, that was nice.

Sam.

Kiss the neck and nibble the ear of the Islander

who you think is the most tasty.

I've got a high-neck dress on!

He's proper eating...

Ciaran...

I'm so excited for this one!

Snog two Islanders of the opposite sex

that you'd most like to share a bed with.

Right...

Harriett.

Right, I don't know where anyone is sat, so I'm gonna...

Nicole.

CHEERING Yeah!

Kissing Ciaran was the best kiss I had,

even though I kissed Joey Essex - like, I kissed Joey Essex!

But I think Ciaran, like, top tier. But we won't tell him that!

Samantha.

Ooh!

Snog the Islander who you had an instant connection with.

CHEERING Come on!

You need the hype for this one! Come on!

Yeah!

Love it!

My first kiss with Ronnie was cute.

As soon as I met Ronnie, like, we just clicked straight away, so...

Ronnie, boy!

Snog the two Islanders who you think have the best body.

Wahey! Go on, boy!

That was way too close for my liking.

He didn't pick me! Do you know what I mean? Like...

Whatevs.

The game's over, and the girls want to hear from me!

Well, listen, I thought it was a good game, it had its moments...

You won't believe this, I've mis-read it again!

They want to hear from Mimii.

Let's start from... Your snogs.

Because all I was seeing is, like, real love!

Didn't want it to be so soon, but, you know what I mean, it's a game?

It's a game, it's not real. It's just a game.

Looked cute, though. It was emotional, it was passionate.

I was actually seeing fireworks. Really?

I'm seeing, like, the start of something.

Good icebreaker, right? Who did Joey kiss, again?

Harriett, Nicole and Samantha. That's all!

Argh! Yikes!

So, one of us is going home. Our fate has been decided.

For me, top two now is Ronnie and Sean. They're the two for me.

That's good.

Well, just speak to them both and see, yeah, see what happens.

Early days, isn't it?

But they are both, like, ticking boxes at the minute.

But I think Ronnie's wandering eye is probably something that...

Really? Yeah.

You think?

What do you think he's got a wandering eye for?

No, I mean in general.

Not now, he can speak to anyone, you know what I mean?

But I think he would be someone that potentially might have...

One that you would have to watch. Yeah.

And you don't want that. No, I don't think so.

What about you? Kicking off strong. We had Ronnie.

Also, as I said before, like, I did fancy him a little bit,

so, I was like, maybe he might pull me for a chat or whatever,

but then he just kissed me, so here we are!

Anyway, then Ciaran was good.

Obviously, I'm coupled up with him, so he kind of had to kiss me.

No! No, he didn't!

No, he didn't. He didn't have to kiss you at all.

Are you vibing with your partners, by the way?

Yeah, I am, to be fair. I'm vibing quite well.

I think it's early days, to be fair.

Well, one of us is going in 24... Not you, you're sound.

Yeah, but this is gonna be one of the boys' last 24 hours, isn't it?

So, you've gotta make the most of it now.

100%. That's so true.

Cos that was an eye-opener, like, you coming in.

I just thought, like, there's something else coming along.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But 24 hours, one of you boys have gone.

Yeah. That's so shit. It's fucked.

You've gotta get it done now.

You've gotta just enjoy everything now. Yeah, yeah.

No, like I say, if I was in your shoes, I'd do the exact same.

It is what it is, isn't it?

Exactly, exactly, mate, yeah.

Go on, tell us about your one. What did you have?

The first connection.

I don't know, with Ronnie, on the first day, like,

as soon as we got...

It was like bang, do you know what I mean?

"you're Scouser. I love Scouser."

How was yours?

Nice. It was all right. I don't even know...

How many snogs...? You got Ciaran... Agh!

That was good. His kiss was good.

Any of them give you any twinges?

Ciaran was a bit like... The minge twinge! Yeah.

Do you? Yeah.

I do, yeah.

I felt more passionate with Ciaran. He proper was like... Yeah.

And, like, Joey is really nice so I'm just going to see...

We've got loads of boys to talk to. Yeah.

What did you think of the task? Funny.

Joey rocking up, that was a bit mad, wasn't it?

Yeah, he's not my type, I don't think. No? No.

Nice boy, but he's not my type. Good, cos he ain't having you.

You sure of that? I'll let him know.

You know, I was just seeing where you're at, and that.

You're looking real nice tonight. Thank you.

So, are you all sweet with everything?

I'm happy with how things are going, yeah. First kiss?

Not going to complain. First kiss done?

We had a first kiss down there. What do you rate it out of 10?

Nine point six.

What was the room for improvement?

I don't know. Do you want to see now?

It's only a kiss, doesn't mean anything.

That's a nine point seven. How about a little bush?

Little nine point seven, that. Nine point seven?

What... what room is there for improvement there?

There's always room for improvement, innit?

You don't how I'm going to rate you. Seven. Major room for improvement.

It's good start, innit? I'm enjoying it.

Yeah. I think we get on well, don't we?

Yeah, we do. See what happens. Go on, after you.

Obviously it's early days, but I think we get on well.

There's definitely some kind of chemistry there.

I think we bounce off each other.

It's nice to be coupled up with someone

that you find good-looking and that you get on well with.

Who's that? Ronnie and Jess?

Do you think Jess likes him? Yeah. Do you? Yeah.

Jess kissed a footballer

and now she's gonna spill the beans.

Well, hold your horses, Jess.

I've got a friend at a Sunday newspaper

who'll bung you a grand for a story like that.

Some goss.

So, Ronnie just took me up to the terrace.

My God, stop. Yeah.

And he was just like, er, chatting about the challenge

and how we're getting on, and obviously it's so early days.

And I was like, "What would you rate the kiss?"

And he was like, "Nine point six." I was like, "Nine point six?"

I was like, "I'm sorry, but why nine point six?"

Like, that's not good.

And he was like, "well, we can have a kiss now."

Stop. In the terrace? Yeah!

So I kissed him on the terrace. But I'm not...

It's a kiss, at the end of the day.

That connection is a huge thing, isn't it?

Do you feel that, though? Yeah. It was a good kiss.

So, you were on the terrace? You were quiet.

Yeah. No-one suspected anything? No.

It's not... We're not doing anything wrong, but...

Is that probably the first kiss on the terrace?

I feel like all the boys are a bit shaky at the moment.

I think they're all a bit shut up, you know? I think they are.

Get it in there before he might be dumped. Exactly.

I wasn't really expecting a kiss on the terrace, but the thing is,

in the moment, if you feel like it, you go with it, don't you?

Maybe we've set the bar now,

maybe everyone will be going up there. Who knows?

But I hope Ronnie is not expecting any more tonight.

He is on his side, I'm on my side, invisible pillow,

I'm turning this way, he's turning that way.

End of story and good night.

So nice to have Joey Essex on the show.

You never really see him on the telly.

Well, unless you watch Celebrity SAS,

Celebs Go Dating, I'm A Celebrity, Celebrity Ex On The Beach,

The Jump, Educating Joey Essex, Celebrity MasterChef or TOWIE.

But other than that, Joey is never really on the telly.

In the couples you are in, are you happy?

Do you know what, though? My one surprised me a bit, like...

Who are you with? Er, Jess. Nice.

Yeah, she's cool, man.

And then we had a little, er, snog up there earlier

on the terrace. Wait! What?

Did you, yeah? Wait!

How are you feeling with Ronnie, all right?

We had a little kiss then up there, which was like...

How was that? Was it nice? It was a good kiss, yeah.

Joey, how is your first night going?

Kissing three girls in like 30 seconds.

Ten seconds each? I did it.

I was like, "Who's next?"

My mam's going to be looking back on this

thinking, "My daughter's just kissed Joey Essex."

Someone's going home tomorrow. Shit, yeah.

It's sad, innit? Cos I like all the boys.

Bedtime!

Ooh.

Look at everyone in their couples, it's so cute.

Love your couple, Joey.

I'm going to cuddle my pillow all night.

Night, everyone! Night, everyone! Night!

It's the morning after Joey arrived in the villa.

Funny how Joey's surname is where he's from.

I was saying that my mate, Brian 17 High Street Norwich.

Good old Brian 17th High Street Norwich.

Morning. Morning, Islanders!

Woo. How we all feeling?

Buzzing. Anyone have any cuddles?

She tried touching me, but I said no.

Give it a rest. I was like, "No!"

Did I snore? You snored.

Stop, really? Does she? OK, good.

How you feel about your decision, Joey, you gotta make tonight?

Yeah, looking forward to it, really.

Obviously, I gotta do a bit of grafting today.

I'm shitting myself.

I kissed someone last night.

Ronnie took me to the terrace last night.

I just gave him a cheeky snog.

You're joking? Yeah, it's only a snog, isn't it?

What d'you think about Joey?

Sweet salesman Sean AKA The Candyman's on the terrace

with Nicole and Samantha and there's something he wants to share...

Is it Quality Street? A family pack of Skittles?

No it's just gossip.

Ronnie and Jess had a kiss up here last night, to be fair. Who?

Ronnie and Jess, to be fair, a little cheeky kiss.

Who kisses on the first night? What you feeling about Joey?

Yeah, no, Joey's gorgeous. I like that he's in his thirties.

Older, really. Mature, and settled down.

He's got his stuff together. Yeah.

You can see he's in here for the right reasons.

How're you feeling about today? What about?

Like you feeling to chat to anyone, or...?

I'm just, yeah, chatting to everyone, but it's like...

What vibe are you...? It's like...

You know, a lot of it is very much friendly, do you know what I mean?

OK. Obviously, you know, you're the front runner at the moment.

You're a bit mysterious. Am I? I haven't dug in deep yet.

OK. But so far so good. Got you.

Ayo, yeah...

I dunno, maybe I'm feeling a little giddy or whatever.

At the moment, he's literally the top runner for me.

You look nice today. Do I? Yeah. Look sexy.

Sexy? Sexy. Look sexy. You look like a 9.7.

9.7? It's all right, you look like a 7.5.

You've earned five points. Have I?

Tonight, I might even get a better one, what d'you reckon?

What, another kiss tonight? What d'you reckon? We'll see.

We'll see if you play your cards right.

Yeah, well... Hello.

What's happening? You all right?

You all right? Yeah, are you? All right, boy.

Yeah. Sorry to disturb you, but Jess, could we go for a chat?

Of course we can. Where d'you wanna go?

Is there anyone sat over there? We could go over there, if you want?

I mean, you don't have to stay... You're gonna stay on your own?

I'll stay here.

Joey's coming here and he's gotta pick a girl.

So, obviously, he's gonna have chats with Jess cos

she's an attractive-looking girl, d'you know what I mean?

She's properly ticked a few of his boxes.

He's gotta make a choice, and hopefully he doesn't choose Jess,

but, if he does, it is what it is, I gave it a good crack.

How's everything going with you, then? You and Ronnie?

I'm very... I'm like an open book, I'm quite a loud person,

quite a confident person, and, just, if I feel something I go with it.

I actually feel that from you. I look for confidence in girls...

They've gotta hold their own, don't they? Yeah.

I always say, yeah, I actually want a girl who is quite a strong girl,

d'you know what I mean? Yeah, a strong woman. Of course.

I was raised by a single mum. Was you?

Yeah. Yeah, I was raised by my dad. Yeah. Yeah.

So, my mum was like my best friend going up.

Really, yeah? Yeah, she still is now.

My dad passed a few years ago. I'm sorry to hear that.

That's all right. But, like, it was me and my mum.

Like, she's like my best mate. My mum passed away when I was ten.

Sorry, that's awful. It's all right, yeah.

I was feel when people say, it makes you feel more awkward, doesn't it?

But I'm OK to talk, I don't mind talking about it. No.

I've always been like... Obviously it's not nice,

d'you know what I mean?

Of course, it's never nice to grow up without a parent.

I found it hard for years, I never really spoke about it,

but when you actually do speak about things, it's like,

it's like... it doesn't actually... it's better to own it.

Did you only find you spoke about it when you got older?

Yeah, when I was 30, yeah. What, is that what it was?

That's incredible, that. Yeah.

Yeah, strong woman. Strong woman. Confident. Confident.

Yeah, I like that. Best girls are.

I actually do really like that, it's nice. Yeah...

Obviously, like, I'm saying, like, I feel like I do get a vibe

that you quite like Ronnie, though, no? Yeah, I do like Ronnie.

We had a little kiss yesterday, but it was just like a kiss.

What, after the... Yeah-yeah-yeah. Upstairs on the balcony? Yeah.

I've been dead open with him and he's obviously the same with me,

where, yeah, we're getting on,

probably more than anyone else in here.

However, I'm not gonna close myself off.

I'd be stupid to do that.

Would you say, like, you're fully open, though?

100%, yeah, 100%. And I think he is, as well.

And you need to be able to give everyone else that chance, as well,

to see if there's something else there with someone. Yeah.

People say Joey's not the sharpest tool in the box.

I disagree!

Although he did just mix up his suncream

with Samantha's double-shot caramel latte.

I'm glad you're here.

You're good vibes.

I feel like it's, like, being, I don't know Cockney and Scouse,

they just get on well, don't they?

Yeah. So, who have you got your eyes on, anyway?

No-one! Really?!

Yeah! There's not one person here at all?

Obviously, you, yeah, but... Yeah.

Other than that, no-one.

I've definitely got my eyes on you. Have you?

Yeah. Yeah, no, it's just...

You're a nice girl, I can tell.

I dunno, it's like, there's just no-one here my type.

Yeah. Like...

Well, it's early days as well, isn't it?

Yeah, it's early days, like, Sam, who I'm coupled up with,

God love 'im, he's just... He's too...

Which one is Sam again? He's the one with all the tattoos.

Of course, yeah, yeah. He's too cool for me.

You really don't like that mullet, do you? No way.

And personality? No, he's a lovely boy.

Lovely boy. Yeah, to be fair, all the boys are.

You've got no tattoos, have you? None.

Have you not got one, would you never get one?

Nah, I'm clean. That was wild last night.

I can't believe I was here for, like, literally under an hour

and I snogged three girls! I was like, my God!

We've got too much teeth, I think!

We've got too much teeth between us.

Your tooth, innit?

Just had a chat with Samantha. She is such a lovely girl.

We just get along. And she's a sort.

So, Joey thinks Samantha's a sort.

And it turns out, Ciaran and Sam think Nicole's a sort,

while candyman Sean thinks the girls are licorice allsorts!

Ha-ha ha. I've got loads of these!

So, what it is, fucking Joey coming in and what not,

it's like, I actually really don't wanna go, like.

It's his decision, you know what I'm saying?

So, it's like, that's... That's the worst part.

It's not even like... I know, that's the thing,

it's not like the girls can actually say anything about it.

Influence it, or... Do you know what I mean?

I'm like, shit, because Samantha has, like,

been talking with Joey loads. And I'm like, fuck!

I think we've all just got to keep our wits about us, like.

There is only so much we can do, as well.

I thought I'd be calm with it, you know what I mean?

I'm just having too much of a good time, like.

I just don't wanna go yet.

But I feel like chatting to Nicole tonight, maybe...

I just think that if I have a chat,

like, everything about her is, like, perfect.

She's lovely. Yeah, she's a lovely girl.

You can tell, like, in her eyes, like, lovely. Yeah, definitely.

I still don't really know who... Who I like. Really?

But, yeah, so, obviously, you're coupled up with Ciaran.

OK, Ciaran, yeah. Who would you say is...

OK, top three, so you're saying Ciaran would be your top,

who is number two? Probably you.

Me? Yeah.

Come on! No, come on.

All right, OK.

Tell me about your kiss. Why did you pick me?

Was it just an in the moment, like...?

It was an in-the-moment thing. Yeah.

I feel like I did gravitate towards...

I can't believe I'm using that word so much recently,

I don't even really know what it means.

Gravitate? Gravitate. Is that like, gravity?

Yeah, like, pulls you in a little bit.

Gravity... What was it again? Gravitated!

Gravitated! I gravitated towards you,

I was gravitated towards Nicole.

And Samantha. Yeah.

Yeah, so I just sort of went for it.

And, yeah, I feel like I picked the right girls, to be fair.

Yeah, that's good. Yeah, I'm excited.

Yeah, it is exciting.

There's no island better than Love Island to find love, is there? True.

You are a lot different to, like, what I expected.

Really, yeah? Yeah, I'm surprised.

In a good way? Yeah, in a good way!

Nice. Yeah.

You're ticking a few boxes, do you know what I mean?

Yeah, so are yourself, Harriett, ticking a few boxes.

You seem like a lovely girl.

Tonight, Joey will choose a girl

and her partner will leave the villa.

I've written a poem to capture the gravitas of this moment.

If your girl gets picked by the lad from TOWIE,

pack your bags and bugger off nowie.

Whatever happens, happens, innit, boys?

It's been a pleasure, though, boys, innit, already?

Youse excited for tonight, girls? I feel a bit nervous.

You know if I quickly shave my mullet off,

shave my mullet off,

do you think, er, Samantha will...? I'm joking.

One last go! One last go!

Bro, I love you to bits.

I'm going to be in bed with a girl tonight.

I don't know which girl, though.

Who is on the cards, bro?

Who do you think? Give us a name.

Who do you think, though? Who do you think?

I honestly don't know. With you, it could be absolutely anyone.

See that smirk on his face, yeah?

The island is my oyster tonight, boys.

We're going deep into the sea!

Big night tonight! Big night tonight!

Let's turn it up!

Obviously someone's night is going to get cut short tonight.

It's not what I wanted to do, but I'm gonna do it.

And, er, yeah, cheers to that.

As he prepares to make his decision,

Joey is talking to Samantha.

Now, I'm not saying Samantha's star struck,

but she's been trying to sneak a photo of him

for the past 15 minutes.

Obviously the boys are a little bit, a little bit on edge, I guess.

Yeah.

I'm getting on with all the boys so well, do you know what I mean?

And it's like, obviously,

I'm going to have to send one of them home. It's intense.

Do you know what I mean?

All this build up, coming here, wanting to find love,

and then just going home.

Do you want to find love? I want to find love, yeah.

Do you? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you? Course, yeah.Yeah.

I don't think I can be any more ready to find love...

Yeah, I know. ..in my position. Genuinely.

Are you going grey now? I hope not, am I?

No, you're not. You're actually not.

I know, it's mad, innit? Yeah.

And you're not receding either. I know.

You've had a touch, haven't you?

When I shaved it off, I thought to myself...

I like the skinhead.

Do you like it better than my long hair?

Do you? I like a skinhead.

This haircut is called a suede head. Genuinely.

Yeah, because feel it, it's like suede.

It does feel... My God. It does, doesn't it?

Is it like a two all over? Keeping it reem, innit?

I didn't say it, you did! My hair is looking reem. Reem.

I would like for Joey to pick me tonight. I fancy him more now.

It's the age thing, I love the way that he's older than me

and he's a proper fella. A man. Do you know what I mean?

Who would your top two be in the villa? You and Ronnie.

You just made this whole thing a whole lot harder, man.

Just go with who you fancy the most

and whoever you had a good chat with.

Yeah.

When Ron heard that Jess worked in MNS,

he ran to the Hideaway,

grabbed a whip and a gimp mask and handcuffed himself to the bed.

You got the letters the wrong way round, you muppet!

I had a conversation with Joey earlier,

but I don't want him to pick me. No.

But it's like what do you do? It's a bit of a weird one, isn't it?

There's nothing you can do. Obviously, it wouldn't be ideal.

Cos I don't obviously want you to go. No, of course.

Obviously, after today,

I feel like we're a bit clearer on how we're feeling, know what I mean?

I know it's only the second day, but for me to have, like, the energy

and bounce off each other like we do,

if I had that straight away

it obviously means it's going somewhere. Yeah.

I think it's going down the right route.

Obviously, the only thing that's gonna stop it is... Tonight.

I think he kind of knows where I'm at. 100%. We'll see, won't we?

But fingers crossed he doesn't pick me.

If not, see you on the other side. I'm not cheersing that.

Joey's talking to Nicole now

and I'm not saying she's starstruck,

but she is secretly recording him for her new podcast series

the Night I Met Joey Essex In Spain.

I just feel ready to get it done now, know what I mean? Yeah, I know.

I've got to be ruthless, but I've got to be respectfully...

respectfully ruthless. That's the difference. That's the one.

I think people are too scared to open up a bit in here

in front of everyone.

You mean because they want to play it safe? Safe, yeah.

Everything's a bit safe. Do you feel like you're playing it safe or not?

Do you fancy Ciaran?... Do you?

He's all right. He's in the top three.

Is he? Yeah. There's a few people in here I like, though.

From one to three, what are you saying, though?

I'm not telling you.

Who's your favourite? Not telling you. Why not? You've got to tell me.

I'm not telling you. Why not? Why? Cos I don't know myself.

You've got to be open. I just know there's an area.

One to three is an area. And there's two, three, in there maybe.

Am I in it? Yeah. Am I? Yeah.

I find you fit. Am I one or two?

Shut up, I'm not telling you! You can say that.

I'm not telling you. I'm not telling you.

You can. You can say, "Yeah, you're one or two."

What if I'm three? All right, one or two.

Yes! Shut up.

Joey is really good-looking.

He's not my usual type, but you know the way he's so confident

and the way he holds himself?

I think it's just starting to change my mind a bit.

Yes, Harriett. Hello, Joey.

Are you all right? Are you?

Do you wanna go to the terrace? Go on, then.

Shall we have a little chat? The terrace!

That's me fucked! Fuck.

There's a lot riding on Joey's decision,

you know, the anticipation of waiting.

So, you know, hey, he's got all the power today.

And I feel there's a lot of people, including myself,

who aren't probably liking that.

Aah! Are you OK?

Yeah. How are you feeling? Good, how are you feeling?

Good, good. I am...

Yeah, I'm just... I'm just ready to get this done now.

Do you think you've made your decision?

It's mad, because I feel like as the night has just got closer and closer

to this happening, my decision has just changed slightly.

I know, yeah.

Because, obviously, I've seen, like most people, like,

getting closer to their couple.

And I don't know whether that's because...

They know what's coming. Maybe, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

But, listen, I'm gonna be respectfully ruthless, for sure,

but... Yeah, I love that. That's mature.

Do you know what I mean? You're giving mature vibes, though.

Am I? Yeah.

Would you say I'm mature now?

Yeah. I do fancy the mature vibes a lot.

Do you?

I fancy your little mature vibes as well.

Do you, really? OK, good! What's your mind saying now, then?

I don't know.

I don't wanna give too much away, but I, obviously,

I would say Ciaran and you.

No, because of, like, yesterday, in the challenge, you can't really

kiss someone properly, do you know what I mean?

I know. I snogged you last, innit? No, second!

You were second! As if you forgot!

Sorry, sorry, sorry!

I got a text!

THEY GASP shit.

No, it's time.

"Can all Islanders gather around the fire pit immediately?"

Let's go!

Showtime!

Let's go!

"Joey, it's now time to make your decision."

This is hard.

I'm not

I'm not like

I'm not like you...

I've decided to couple up with this girl

because I feel like my 24 hours in this villa with her

has been the most flirtatious...

It's obviously been tough because I have, obviously,

got to know all you girls on a nice level,

and, obviously, got to know all you boys on a cool level.

Like, I feel like we're tight, we're all getting on really well.

But... this is Love Island.

I had to go with my heart, and...

I feel like it's definitely the right decision.

So, the girl I would like to steal is...

..Samantha.

I had to do what I had to do.

"Sam, you are now single.

"Therefore, you have been dumped from the island."

"Please pack your bags and say your goodbyes."

I feel so awful. Honestly, I can't even tell you.

Fucking legend, bruv. Serious. It's fucking hilarious.

My God, bruv.

No, it's not your fault.

Just take care of yourself. Be you, please.

Sam, mate. Sorry, bro.

OK, don't be upset, yeah? I just feel like...

No, I know. You're OK. You're fine.

Don't even worry about it, OK? There's nothing... It's done now.

Yeah, it's done. It's not on you.

Obviously, like, it is sad.

I feel like I get a vibe quite quick,

and I just feel like me and Sam

just didn't have that vibe, unfortunately.

I do feel bad.

But after tonight, I think we all realise, like,

at any moment, you lot could be gone.

So fucking crack on, just have a laugh.

Just have a laugh.

Keep your head up. Smash it, bruv. See you out there, yeah?

- Right, I'll see you all in a bit. - Bye!

I'm definitely feeling mixed emotions right now,

but I kind of saw it coming.

I think, for Joey, I think it was the right decision for him,

I think they had plenty in common,

and there's definitely something there.

Obviously, a bit shit for me, but, you know what I mean?

Can't help it. Can't help it.

Go to the Hideaway. The grafting...

I do fancy you, I think I made it a bit obvious now.

You're a dancer, ain't it? Go on, give us a dance, then.

..gets serious. Harri's just bugged me.

And was like, "I'm gonna take Joey to the Hideaway."

And tensions... Spiteful, isn't it? And it's pretty.

..begin to rise. I think that's massively out of order.
