I feel pretty stoked.
She's gorgeous.

..married at first sight.
5

This is gonna be the first day
of the rest of my life.

Self-confessed controlling bride
Tayla...

very clear.

Hugo is the sweetest
little puppy dog.
11

(MEL AND JOHN GROAN) No!
12
00:00:28,739 --> 00:00:32,099
With how you've been treating me,
maybe you do deserve to be last.
13

Before Rupert's pocket dial exposed
both Hugo...
14
00:00:36,059 --> 00:00:38,499
You called her a (BLEEP)
next Tuesday.
15
00:00:40,739 --> 00:00:43,379
..and Dan's true feelings.
16
00:00:43,459 --> 00:00:47,699
Did you hold up your phone and show
your ex-girlfriends, boasting...
17
00:00:47,739 --> 00:00:49,819
That's pretty disrespectful to me.
18
00:00:49,859 --> 00:00:50,859
Why? Why?
19
00:00:50,899 --> 00:00:52,899
(WOMAN CHORTLES) Oh, serious!
20
00:00:52,979 --> 00:00:55,939
If you can't accept me
for who I am and appreciate that,
21
00:00:55,979 --> 00:00:56,979
he doesn't deserve me.

..can Claire and Jesse prove
that love conquers all?
25

Have you found yourself at a place
where you're able to forgive Claire?
26
00:01:10,379 --> 00:01:11,419
Um...
27
00:01:12,899 --> 00:01:15,779
You said we'd take sex off the table
'cause it makes me too emotional.
28
00:01:16,419 --> 00:01:17,459
You said that to her?
29
00:01:17,499 --> 00:01:19,739
Dan faces the experts...
30
00:01:19,819 --> 00:01:23,299
One of the big things for me
is my love of the ocean.
31
00:01:23,379 --> 00:01:25,979
..and they're in
a no-nonsense kind of mood.
32
00:01:26,059 --> 00:01:28,539
A key ingredient
to a healthy relationship
33
00:01:28,579 --> 00:01:30,459
is not the love of an ocean.
34

will be spared.

the language that you're using.
38

Why am I getting the bad rap
right now?
39

Tayla faces the tough questions.
40
00:01:48,939 --> 00:01:53,259
Do you think your behaviour towards
Hugo suggests that you like him?
41
00:01:53,339 --> 00:01:55,099
Well...
Answer the question.
42
00:01:55,139 --> 00:01:57,099
Hmm!
43
00:01:57,139 --> 00:01:59,499
But her actions shock the group.

Yep. Can you smell it?
I can.
62
00:02:52,659 --> 00:02:54,699
She's done enough for me this week
63
00:02:54,779 --> 00:02:59,739
for me to tell that her wanting
to make it up to me is legit.
64
00:02:59,819 --> 00:03:01,539

Good game!
69
00:03:11,299 --> 00:03:13,179
And the visit from her dad
70
00:03:13,259 --> 00:03:16,459
helped put things in perspective
for both of them.
71
00:03:16,499 --> 00:03:18,139
Life is ups and down.
72
00:03:18,179 --> 00:03:19,899
I've experienced a lot of it.

are in a pretty cool place.

We are definitely vibing each other,
77
00:03:31,579 --> 00:03:33,779
so I think we are definitely moving
78
00:03:33,859 --> 00:03:36,979
into probably the best position we
have been so far in this experience.

Did you get your ring resized?

Yeah.

OK. I've never noticed you wear it
on that hand.
82
00:03:43,379 --> 00:03:45,579
Jesse's wearing his ring again,
the little cutie.
83

He's been wearing it on his
pointer finger for a little while,
84

so nice to see it
on his wedding hand

at a marriage,

was slagging me off - that's not on.

as being a (BLEEP) Tuesday

and he wished that he had...

The other big casualty
from the pocket dial incident
179

was Sandy and Dan's relationship.
180
00:08:25,939 --> 00:08:27,899

around Dan's explosive admissions

Obviously
I'm feeling pretty insecure
186
00:08:41,059 --> 00:08:42,619
after what I heard from Evelyn
187
00:08:42,659 --> 00:08:44,419
that Dan went out with the boys
188
00:08:44,499 --> 00:08:46,899
and he said
some horrible things about me.

your ex-girlfriends, boasting...

whether or not I had a type.
194
00:09:00,219 --> 00:09:02,819
That's...pretty disrespectful to me.
Why would you do that?

You're comparing me to them.
197

And then after
being physically intimate,
198
00:09:10,459 --> 00:09:12,499
you disappeared for the weekend
and went out with the boys
199
00:09:12,579 --> 00:09:14,379
and told me you needed
to escape for three days. Well...
200
00:09:14,459 --> 00:09:16,659
You can probably understand
why I'm upset.
201
00:09:16,739 --> 00:09:20,539

a shit, you don't need to be here.

My head is all over the place
206
00:09:29,059 --> 00:09:32,019
because I haven't spoken to Dan
since the dinner party
207
00:09:32,099 --> 00:09:34,899
so I have no indication
of where he's at.
208
00:09:34,939 --> 00:09:36,379
The last thing I heard from him
209
00:09:36,459 --> 00:09:39,739
was what I felt seemed like
a sincere apology.
210
00:09:39,819 --> 00:09:42,979
And if I say leave,
I'll never know!
211
00:09:43,059 --> 00:09:44,859
Like, I don't know
if he was sincere.
212
00:09:44,939 --> 00:09:46,299
I don't know
if he can change his behaviour.
213
00:09:47,579 --> 00:09:49,419
So I just feel really torn
214
00:09:49,499 --> 00:09:52,819
because when it is going good,
he does make me feel really good.
215
00:09:53,379 --> 00:09:55,339
But I know that
I need to protect myself.
216

I know that
the more I get into this,

the more vulnerable I'm becoming.
218
00:09:59,299 --> 00:10:00,979
And if he keeps up
the same behaviour,

the more hurt I'm gonna get.
220

But then, every time
I think about saying leave,

00:10:05,819 --> 00:10:07,139
then I'm like,
"I won't see him again,"

00:34:03,339 --> 00:34:05,939
So I said 'stay'.
699
00:34:05,979 --> 00:34:07,939
Evelyn, what have you got for us?
700
00:34:07,979 --> 00:34:09,619
Stay.
701
00:34:13,939 --> 00:34:15,619
Go back to the group
and we'll see you next time.
702
00:34:15,659 --> 00:34:16,819
MEL: Enjoy the week.
703
00:34:18,459 --> 00:34:19,739
Next up...
704
00:34:24,339 --> 00:34:25,819
Bronte and Harrison.
705
00:34:31,339 --> 00:34:33,099
Welcome, Bronte.
JOHN: Hey, you two.
706
00:34:33,179 --> 00:34:35,139
MEL: Hello.
We missed you last week.
707
00:34:35,179 --> 00:34:37,659
I know. I missed you guys too.
708
00:34:37,739 --> 00:34:39,459
It's kind of nice
to have Bronte here.
709
00:34:39,539 --> 00:34:42,339
Are you feeling better?
I'm feeling much better. Yeah.
710
00:34:42,379 --> 00:34:43,899
I'm very happy to hear that.
711
00:34:43,979 --> 00:34:45,859
It was tough to see you like that.
I know.
712
00:34:45,899 --> 00:34:47,099
So...
713
00:34:47,179 --> 00:34:50,819
Harrison was particularly concerned
about you...
714
00:34:50,859 --> 00:34:51,939
Yep.
715
00:34:52,019 --> 00:34:54,539
..and even became emotional
on the couch when you weren't here.
716
00:34:54,619 --> 00:34:57,299
Do you know about that?
I did.
717
00:34:57,379 --> 00:35:02,339
To have Harrison really show
compassion and empathy...
718
00:35:03,779 --> 00:35:05,939
you know, it's something
that I didn't really see
719
00:35:06,019 --> 00:35:08,379
for the first few weeks
of our marriage.
720
00:35:08,419 --> 00:35:11,019
He's been extremely supportive
721
00:35:11,099 --> 00:35:15,179
and wanting to know
exactly what endometriosis is
722
00:35:15,219 --> 00:35:16,739
and what it does to a woman.
723
00:35:16,819 --> 00:35:21,059
And that's very different
to a lot of my past partners.
724
00:35:21,139 --> 00:35:25,339
I've had past partners tell me
that I am gonna be a bad mum...
725
00:35:27,979 --> 00:35:29,699
Sorry, I don't want to
get emotional... (LAUGHS)
726
00:35:29,739 --> 00:35:31,659
I actually do want to address that.
727
00:35:32,699 --> 00:35:33,939
I don't think...
Yeah.
728
00:35:33,979 --> 00:35:36,299
..any woman should be told that.
729
00:35:36,339 --> 00:35:39,019
That was really hard for me to hear.
730
00:35:39,099 --> 00:35:41,379
I think Bronte is gonna be
an amazing mum one day.
731
00:35:41,419 --> 00:35:43,499
Thank you. Thank you.
732
00:35:43,579 --> 00:35:47,179
And that's why, when I did have
the weekend with my son,
733
00:35:47,259 --> 00:35:49,219
I wanted them to meet, so...
Yeah.
734
00:35:49,299 --> 00:35:51,859
..I introduced Bronte to my son
for the first time...
735
00:35:51,939 --> 00:35:53,059
JOHN: Wow.
MEL: Oh, that's massive.
736
00:35:53,139 --> 00:35:54,819
That was a huge step for me.
JOHN: Yeah.
737
00:35:54,859 --> 00:35:55,859
I haven't done that before.
738
00:35:55,939 --> 00:35:58,059
MEL: You've never introduced a woman
to your son? No.
739
00:35:58,139 --> 00:36:00,379
Yeah, well, it's a relationship,
you know. It's moving forward.
740
00:36:02,379 --> 00:36:05,979
We then had the friends and family
meet, you know,
741
00:36:06,059 --> 00:36:07,739
like, went over some stuff
that'd come up before...
742
00:36:07,779 --> 00:36:08,779
Yeah.
743
00:36:08,859 --> 00:36:10,339
But I think we handled it
really well.
744
00:36:10,419 --> 00:36:12,259
I think,
the back end of the wedding,
745
00:36:12,339 --> 00:36:15,779
obviously that's the last thing
that our friends and family saw
746
00:36:15,819 --> 00:36:17,259
and clearly that wasn't great.
747
00:36:17,339 --> 00:36:21,179
Everyone knows how close I am
with my sister
748
00:36:21,259 --> 00:36:24,419
and her approval means
absolutely everything to me
749
00:36:24,459 --> 00:36:27,499
and she can see that I am happy
750
00:36:27,579 --> 00:36:29,979
and she can see that there has been
a massive 180,
751
00:36:30,019 --> 00:36:32,579
which is a huge positive.
752
00:36:34,139 --> 00:36:37,979
And it is a massive 180
from just a couple of weeks ago.
753
00:36:38,019 --> 00:36:40,739
How do you feel about each other?
754
00:36:42,339 --> 00:36:44,699
Harrison?
Um...
755
00:36:46,139 --> 00:36:47,859
I'm definitely falling for Bronte.
756
00:36:47,939 --> 00:36:52,939
There was a lot of parts of me
that I felt like were broken
757
00:36:52,979 --> 00:36:54,859
and I think time with Bronte
758
00:36:54,939 --> 00:36:57,099
is putting all those parts
back together.
759
00:36:59,019 --> 00:37:00,099
Mmm.
760
00:37:00,179 --> 00:37:02,979
I think Bronte is bringing out
the best in me.
761
00:37:03,019 --> 00:37:04,659
Aw. (LAUGHS)
762
00:37:04,739 --> 00:37:07,539
She's just a great...
a great gal.
763
00:37:10,619 --> 00:37:12,899
Bronte?
Mm-hm. (LAUGHS)
764
00:37:12,979 --> 00:37:14,779
Are you falling in love
with Harrison?
765
00:37:16,619 --> 00:37:17,979
Yeah.
766
00:37:18,059 --> 00:37:20,499
Yeah, I'm definitely falling
for Harrison.
767
00:37:20,579 --> 00:37:23,659
You know, I can't imagine
what it would be like to wake up
768
00:37:23,699 --> 00:37:24,779
and he's not there.
769
00:37:26,699 --> 00:37:28,579
Tell me about the intimacy
in this relationship.
770
00:37:28,619 --> 00:37:30,259
How is that progressing?
771
00:37:30,339 --> 00:37:32,659
It's pretty wild.
It's pretty wild?
772
00:37:32,739 --> 00:37:34,579
We had a few wines
the other night...
773
00:37:34,619 --> 00:37:35,699
Oh, my god. I'm dying.
774
00:37:35,779 --> 00:37:38,779
..and I think Ollie thought we were
remodelling the bedroom.
775
00:37:38,819 --> 00:37:41,099
(LAUGHTER)
776
00:37:41,139 --> 00:37:42,619
OLLIE: Yeah, I do hear things. Yeah.
777
00:37:42,659 --> 00:37:44,499
(LAUGHTER)
778
00:37:48,779 --> 00:37:50,459
Let's get to the decisions.
779
00:37:50,499 --> 00:37:51,539
Bronte?
780
00:37:51,619 --> 00:37:53,779
BRONTE: I wrote 'stay'
with a little love heart.
781
00:37:53,819 --> 00:37:55,579
(LAUGHS)
782
00:37:55,619 --> 00:37:58,099
I also decided to stay...
783
00:37:58,179 --> 00:37:59,699
Aw.
..with a little love heart.
784
00:37:59,779 --> 00:38:01,059
(LAUGHS)
Yeah.
785
00:38:01,139 --> 00:38:03,099
Matching.
Oh, that's so cute.
786
00:38:03,139 --> 00:38:04,339
Mmm.
787
00:38:05,579 --> 00:38:07,459
Alright. Have a great week,
you guys.
788
00:38:07,539 --> 00:38:08,979
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
789
00:38:09,059 --> 00:38:10,579
Thank you.
Bye.
790
00:38:10,619 --> 00:38:13,579
(APPLAUSE)
791
00:38:15,379 --> 00:38:17,699
Our next couple up on the couch...
792
00:38:17,739 --> 00:38:20,739
(TENSE MUSIC)
793
00:38:24,459 --> 00:38:25,859
..Melinda and Layton.
794
00:38:25,899 --> 00:38:28,899
(APPLAUSE)
795
00:38:30,699 --> 00:38:32,139
Hello, hello.
MELINDA: Hi.
796
00:38:32,179 --> 00:38:33,659
LAYTON: How are we?
797
00:38:40,939 --> 00:38:42,499
Tell us about your week.
798
00:38:43,979 --> 00:38:47,499
It was, like,
the same Layton and Mel pattern,
799
00:38:47,579 --> 00:38:52,059
where dinner parties are good,
commitment ceremony is good,
800
00:38:52,099 --> 00:38:53,939
the next day so-so,
801
00:38:54,019 --> 00:38:57,699
followed by the second day
may be bad and then good again.
802
00:38:59,059 --> 00:39:02,179
And every time we get here, like,
I guess, it feels like we're good.
803
00:39:04,579 --> 00:39:06,779
We don't really have much
to talk about.
804
00:39:06,859 --> 00:39:12,139
I think we're at that stage
where we are trying to ascertain
805
00:39:12,219 --> 00:39:14,419
whether the issues we have
in our relationship
806
00:39:14,459 --> 00:39:17,819
is as a result of the experiment.
807
00:39:17,899 --> 00:39:20,259
We are both very stubborn
and hot-headed
808
00:39:20,299 --> 00:39:21,699
and so things can kick off
809
00:39:21,779 --> 00:39:24,019
and that sets somebody back,
so we can take...
810
00:39:24,099 --> 00:39:27,099
I used to say we take one and a half
steps forward, one step back,
811
00:39:27,179 --> 00:39:29,579
so we're always moving half a step
forward and an inch a day...
812
00:39:29,659 --> 00:39:33,099
Layton, the way you're talking
right now,
813
00:39:33,139 --> 00:39:34,979
it's like you're in a boardroom.
814
00:39:36,619 --> 00:39:39,179
It's like you're trying to
convince me and everybody else
815
00:39:39,219 --> 00:39:41,979
and take, you know, the issue...
816
00:39:42,059 --> 00:39:44,499
Yeah.
..and kind of dilute it.
817
00:39:44,539 --> 00:39:46,099
Don't do that.
818
00:39:46,179 --> 00:39:48,619
It's very difficult to get a read
on your relationship.
819
00:39:51,779 --> 00:39:58,139
This here
is trying to put a facade up.
820
00:40:01,179 --> 00:40:03,219
But you're not letting us in.
821
00:40:10,219 --> 00:40:15,059
Harrison, there is some whispering
going on over there.
822
00:40:15,099 --> 00:40:17,699
What's the story?
823
00:40:17,739 --> 00:40:21,619
(TENSE MUSIC)
824
00:40:21,659 --> 00:40:22,659
(SIGHS)
825
00:40:30,979 --> 00:40:37,339
This here
is trying to put a facade up.
826
00:40:42,459 --> 00:40:44,259
LYNDALL: Yeah.
827
00:40:45,179 --> 00:40:49,859
Harrison, there is some whispering
going on over there.
828
00:40:50,699 --> 00:40:52,539
What's the story?
829
00:40:53,339 --> 00:40:59,379
(SIGHS) Mate, the guy I met at the
bucks' party, you were full of life,
830
00:40:59,419 --> 00:41:02,539
really fun, full of energy
831
00:41:02,619 --> 00:41:04,859
and, mate,
you just don't seem happy.
832
00:41:06,099 --> 00:41:08,059
I'm looking at a different guy
tonight.
833
00:41:08,139 --> 00:41:10,979
And I think every week
we see the same story from you guys
834
00:41:11,019 --> 00:41:12,619
and I just don't buy it.
835
00:41:12,699 --> 00:41:15,019
Just own it.
Tell us what's going on.
836
00:41:16,499 --> 00:41:19,739
You know, I think for me
it's a really challenging process.
837
00:41:19,779 --> 00:41:22,219
And Mel and I, we're very similar
838
00:41:22,299 --> 00:41:24,539
because we're very passionate
and we're very headstrong.
839
00:41:24,579 --> 00:41:25,579
We're very stubborn.
840
00:41:25,659 --> 00:41:28,539
And I think there's parts of our
relationship that don't work.
841
00:41:28,619 --> 00:41:30,419
There are so many parts...
You're being diplomatic.
842
00:41:34,859 --> 00:41:36,779
Just tell me what is going on.
843
00:41:39,059 --> 00:41:42,059
Well, when we do get into an
argument, we're both very stubborn.
844
00:41:42,099 --> 00:41:45,139
No-one wants to sort of back down.
845
00:41:45,219 --> 00:41:47,339
It's both our way
or the highway here.
846
00:41:47,419 --> 00:41:48,899
It's like...
Ah.
847
00:41:48,939 --> 00:41:50,579
..two know-it-alls.
848
00:41:50,659 --> 00:41:55,259
Yeah, and it is draining
to be in a relationship like this.
849
00:41:55,299 --> 00:41:56,459
It can be a little toxic.
850
00:41:58,379 --> 00:42:00,899
So you get gridlocked
and you point-score.
851
00:42:00,939 --> 00:42:02,659
"I'm right, you're wrong."
852
00:42:02,699 --> 00:42:04,219
That will happen.
853
00:42:04,299 --> 00:42:06,699
That will maybe set you back
for half a day or a day.
854
00:42:06,779 --> 00:42:09,579
Then we'll build on the fact that
we do have a really good chemistry
855
00:42:09,619 --> 00:42:10,699
and physical connection.
856
00:42:10,779 --> 00:42:13,619
So this is not a facade. This is...
Yeah, absolutely not.
857
00:42:13,699 --> 00:42:15,899
When we're good, we are really good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
858
00:42:15,979 --> 00:42:19,219
But it's, like, scary
because I don't know after this
859
00:42:19,299 --> 00:42:23,339
if I'm gonna be OK
with not having that... Mmm.
860
00:42:23,419 --> 00:42:25,819
..like, foundation in our
relationship where we can't talk,
861
00:42:25,899 --> 00:42:27,419
we can't argue because...
Mm-hm.
862
00:42:27,499 --> 00:42:29,659
..that to me is...
it's a dead end.
863
00:42:32,259 --> 00:42:35,619
Melinda, do you want this
to move forward?
864
00:42:35,659 --> 00:42:37,299
Yeah, I do.
865
00:42:38,819 --> 00:42:40,579
I just can't figure it out.
866
00:42:40,619 --> 00:42:42,099
(CRIES)
867
00:42:53,779 --> 00:42:57,899
You know, in the past,
this would be me done
868
00:42:57,939 --> 00:43:01,659
but I do want to try almost anything
869
00:43:01,739 --> 00:43:06,219
because there's too many things
that are, like, so close to perfect,
870
00:43:06,299 --> 00:43:08,699
you know,
that I've never had before.
871
00:43:08,779 --> 00:43:13,059
I've told you
you need to get real on this couch
872
00:43:13,099 --> 00:43:15,859
and at last we're getting there.
873
00:43:15,939 --> 00:43:19,739
There are two CEOs
sitting on the couch butting heads.
874
00:43:19,819 --> 00:43:23,339
When you guys
have got things to bring up,
875
00:43:23,419 --> 00:43:28,139
rather than thinking
"I'm right and they're wrong,"
876
00:43:28,179 --> 00:43:31,539
I want you to say "I take your point"
877
00:43:31,619 --> 00:43:36,739
because then the other person
feels validated and you can move.
878
00:43:38,779 --> 00:43:40,499
It's no longer about point-scoring.
879
00:43:40,579 --> 00:43:42,539
When you try and do that,
you both lose.
880
00:43:44,059 --> 00:43:47,859
We're gonna go to the decision now
to see where you're at. Layton?
881
00:43:47,939 --> 00:43:50,099
I definitely agree there's things
that we need to work on
882
00:43:50,139 --> 00:43:51,259
in our relationship.
883
00:43:51,339 --> 00:43:53,179
We've got to start to just meet
in the middle.
884
00:43:53,259 --> 00:43:55,859
And so I would like to stay
and work on this more
885
00:43:55,939 --> 00:43:57,859
because I think there's a lot of
potential with us.
886
00:43:59,619 --> 00:44:01,259
Melinda, what have you got for us?
887
00:44:01,339 --> 00:44:04,659
Communication is, like,
super important to me
888
00:44:04,699 --> 00:44:06,459
and we've, like, gotta get it right,
889
00:44:06,539 --> 00:44:08,659
so I'm gonna work really hard
this week
890
00:44:08,739 --> 00:44:14,059
because it's crunch time for me and
us, so, yeah, I'm choosing to stay.
891
00:44:17,779 --> 00:44:21,299
Alright. Well, listen,
I'm glad we got honest tonight.
892
00:44:21,379 --> 00:44:23,739
We don't want to hear any more
boardroom talk.
893
00:44:23,819 --> 00:44:28,179
What we want to hear
is transparency and honesty.
894
00:44:28,259 --> 00:44:30,379
Off you go.
I like it.
895
00:44:30,419 --> 00:44:31,739
Thank you.
896
00:44:31,779 --> 00:44:35,219
(APPLAUSE)
897
00:44:37,019 --> 00:44:38,539
(SIGHS)
898
00:44:38,619 --> 00:44:43,539
I just can't get over the fact that
Harrison had the hide to sit there
899
00:44:43,619 --> 00:44:47,819
and call out our relationship,
say that he doesn't buy it.
900
00:44:47,899 --> 00:44:49,779
Well, I didn't buy your little
monologue on the couch
901
00:44:49,859 --> 00:44:52,939
where you're saying you all of a
sudden, overnight, now are in love.
902
00:44:54,539 --> 00:44:56,739
You're not gonna come
between me and Layton.
903
00:44:56,779 --> 00:44:59,619
Stay away from my relationship.
904
00:44:59,659 --> 00:45:01,179
MEL: Our next couple on the couch...
905
00:45:04,019 --> 00:45:05,459
Tahnee and Ollie.
906
00:45:08,739 --> 00:45:09,859
Hello.
Hello.
907
00:45:09,899 --> 00:45:11,339
How's it going, guys?
908
00:45:11,419 --> 00:45:14,899
How are you going?
Yeah, yeah, good. Good.
909
00:45:14,939 --> 00:45:16,059
Yeah.
910
00:45:16,099 --> 00:45:18,219
I feel really strongly about Ollie.
911
00:45:18,299 --> 00:45:21,459
I think each day we're just getting
better and better.
912
00:45:21,539 --> 00:45:24,459
It was really nice
to see our family.
913
00:45:24,539 --> 00:45:27,259
I feel like that was
just such a fun time
914
00:45:27,339 --> 00:45:30,419
and just, I guess, really reassuring
from their side as well,
915
00:45:30,499 --> 00:45:32,659
hearing how they saw
how we were together.
916
00:45:32,739 --> 00:45:35,979
I feel, yeah, really, really
strongly towards Ollie.
917
00:45:36,019 --> 00:45:38,459
I obviously really like him.
918
00:45:38,499 --> 00:45:39,499
How about you, Ollie?
919
00:45:39,579 --> 00:45:42,579
Yeah, like,
we just continue to grow.
920
00:45:43,819 --> 00:45:48,699
It would be one or two days
and then it's like we've doubled
921
00:45:48,779 --> 00:45:51,459
in terms of our appreciation
for one another.
922
00:45:51,499 --> 00:45:54,579
I genuinely have feelings for you
923
00:45:54,659 --> 00:45:58,659
and definitely in the process,
I think, of falling in love.
924
00:46:00,859 --> 00:46:02,979
I'm really stoked
with where we're at.
925
00:46:03,059 --> 00:46:06,059
I think that we're not gonna be
surprised
926
00:46:06,099 --> 00:46:08,699
but we must come to your decisions.
927
00:46:08,739 --> 00:46:09,979
Ollie?
928
00:46:10,019 --> 00:46:11,979
I have written 'stay' with an XO.
929
00:46:12,059 --> 00:46:14,019
Alright.
Yes.
930
00:46:15,179 --> 00:46:16,579
Stay.
Oooh.
931
00:46:16,659 --> 00:46:19,259
(APPLAUSE)
You guys are doing so, so well.
932
00:46:19,339 --> 00:46:23,419
You're being able to voice how
you're feeling about one another
933
00:46:23,459 --> 00:46:25,619
through the process to one another.
934
00:46:25,699 --> 00:46:28,579
I think it's a big important part,
especially for you guys
935
00:46:28,659 --> 00:46:30,619
because feelings
are really developing here,
936
00:46:30,699 --> 00:46:33,179
so continue on
and have a great week.
937
00:46:33,259 --> 00:46:34,739
Brilliant. Thank you. Thank you.
Well done, guys.
938
00:46:34,819 --> 00:46:36,659
Thanks so much, guys. Thank you.
JOHN: Good work, guys.
939
00:46:36,699 --> 00:46:39,779
(APPLAUSE)
940
00:46:43,059 --> 00:46:44,859
Our next couple up on the couch...
941
00:46:46,939 --> 00:46:48,539
Lyndall and Cam.
942
00:46:54,339 --> 00:46:55,899
Hi.
Hello.
943
00:46:55,939 --> 00:46:57,219
How you going?
944
00:46:59,739 --> 00:47:04,899
Well, last time we saw you on
the couch, you two had some issues.
945
00:47:05,899 --> 00:47:07,579
Where are you at this week?
946
00:47:10,979 --> 00:47:14,379
Well, last week,
I was told that I needed to show up,
947
00:47:14,419 --> 00:47:17,139
so I showed more affection.
948
00:47:17,219 --> 00:47:19,099
I showed that I genuinely wanted
to be here.
949
00:47:19,179 --> 00:47:22,379
Went and got some flowers
and then there was more hugging,
950
00:47:22,419 --> 00:47:24,499
there was more kissing
951
00:47:24,579 --> 00:47:27,219
and then we had family come
and say hello to us.
952
00:47:29,219 --> 00:47:31,059
How did that go?
953
00:47:31,099 --> 00:47:32,779
I had a good chat with Mum
954
00:47:32,859 --> 00:47:34,939
and I just spoke to her about
a few little things.
955
00:47:35,019 --> 00:47:36,899
I thought I might get
a bit of understanding,
956
00:47:36,939 --> 00:47:38,539
a bit of help from her.
957
00:47:38,619 --> 00:47:40,979
And after they left,
I had a chat with Lyndall
958
00:47:41,019 --> 00:47:42,019
and Lyndall was, like...
959
00:47:42,099 --> 00:47:44,339
"What did your mum think of me?"
.."What did your mum think?"
960
00:47:44,379 --> 00:47:46,139
I just said, "Hey, like, Mum said
961
00:47:46,219 --> 00:47:48,619
"there might be a few little
insecurities for Lyndall."
962
00:47:53,419 --> 00:47:57,019
And what were the insecurities
that she said Lyndall had?
963
00:47:57,099 --> 00:47:59,779
It was just about...
Needing affection.
964
00:48:02,579 --> 00:48:03,819
But it wasn't a bad thing.
965
00:48:03,899 --> 00:48:05,259
It wasn't, like,
"Oh, she's got insecurities.
966
00:48:05,339 --> 00:48:07,539
"Pfft. On your horse, off you go."
It wasn't like that.
967
00:48:07,619 --> 00:48:09,659
It was just, like, "Maybe you can
talk to each other
968
00:48:09,699 --> 00:48:12,019
"and have a conversation."
969
00:48:13,659 --> 00:48:17,699
Cam, I want you to think about what
it would be like for Lyndall to hear
970
00:48:17,739 --> 00:48:20,459
that your mum thinks she's insecure.
971
00:48:23,219 --> 00:48:24,939
Yeah, it wouldn't be easy.
972
00:48:24,979 --> 00:48:27,419
How do you think it makes her feel?
973
00:48:27,499 --> 00:48:30,819
Yeah, it would make you feel
insecure.
974
00:48:35,699 --> 00:48:39,059
I'm not a man with words.
I just told it how it was.
975
00:48:43,459 --> 00:48:45,499
I know this is
your first relationship.
976
00:48:45,579 --> 00:48:49,539
There are different ways
to tell it the way that it is.
977
00:48:52,099 --> 00:48:55,859
When she hears, "Hey, I spoke to Mum
and she thinks you're insecure,"
978
00:48:55,899 --> 00:48:58,339
how is that gonna go?
979
00:48:58,419 --> 00:49:00,899
Yeah, there's probably
different ways to skin a cat there.
980
00:49:00,979 --> 00:49:03,579
Yeah.
Yeah.
981
00:49:06,459 --> 00:49:08,579
I was really hurt
982
00:49:08,619 --> 00:49:11,939
because after the week that we had
983
00:49:11,979 --> 00:49:17,579
where all I'd asked for, genuinely,
984
00:49:17,619 --> 00:49:19,179
was one bit of affection a day,
985
00:49:19,259 --> 00:49:23,499
to hear that this was something
that was coming back to me
986
00:49:23,579 --> 00:49:26,659
and something I had to then work on,
it just set me off.
987
00:49:26,739 --> 00:49:28,219
I was, like, "I can't win."
Well, no...
988
00:49:28,299 --> 00:49:31,299
I ask for
pretty much less than bare minimum
989
00:49:31,379 --> 00:49:34,619
and I'm sitting here having to
justify that I'm not insecure.
990
00:49:36,419 --> 00:49:40,499
I have literally avoided
long-term relationships
991
00:49:40,579 --> 00:49:43,179
because I didn't think
I deserved one
992
00:49:44,139 --> 00:49:47,739
and our biggest arguments
have sprung from
993
00:49:47,779 --> 00:49:49,499
having to ask for hugs and kisses.
994
00:49:50,739 --> 00:49:56,099
And it just makes me feel like
I did not wait my whole life
995
00:49:56,179 --> 00:50:00,179
to finally let myself ask for
a long relationship
996
00:50:00,259 --> 00:50:05,219
to be begging someone
to see when I'm hurt
997
00:50:05,299 --> 00:50:07,579
and help me with it
instead of walking away.
998
00:50:07,619 --> 00:50:09,939
I can't be perfect all the time.
999
00:50:12,699 --> 00:50:14,859
I can't.
I can't be happy all the time.
1000
00:50:14,939 --> 00:50:16,979
That is absolutely not what my life
has been.
1001
00:50:20,459 --> 00:50:21,699
I just don't understand
1002
00:50:21,779 --> 00:50:24,579
how I was meant to give you
reassurance on Friday
1003
00:50:24,619 --> 00:50:25,899
when you got nasty at me.
1004
00:50:25,939 --> 00:50:27,219
Well, did you back me up?
1005
00:50:27,299 --> 00:50:28,979
Did you say to your mum
"Lyndall's not insecure.
1006
00:50:29,059 --> 00:50:30,379
"She's actually asking me
for very little
1007
00:50:30,459 --> 00:50:32,139
"and maybe I want to take on
the challenge"?
1008
00:50:32,219 --> 00:50:34,139
Well, if you let me finish
the conversation,
1009
00:50:34,219 --> 00:50:37,139
I wanted to give you all this
but you didn't give me the chance.
1010
00:50:37,219 --> 00:50:39,979
Alright. Well, what reassurance
WOULD you have given me?
1011
00:50:40,059 --> 00:50:42,499
We would've sat down
and had a good chat.
1012
00:50:42,579 --> 00:50:44,899
We would've had the best chat ever
and said,
1013
00:50:44,979 --> 00:50:47,139
"Right, we're gonna start
our conflict different"
1014
00:50:47,219 --> 00:50:50,139
instead of going for the throat
and I would've got you a hug.
1015
00:50:50,179 --> 00:50:51,499
I would've gave you more kisses.
1016
00:50:51,579 --> 00:50:54,459
I said "We're both in this
together."
1017
00:50:54,539 --> 00:50:57,939
Cam, how you bring up an issue...
Yeah.
1018
00:50:58,019 --> 00:51:01,099
..is more important really
than what you bring up.
1019
00:51:01,139 --> 00:51:04,459
Sledgehammer goes badly.
1020
00:51:04,499 --> 00:51:06,939
Gentle goes well.
1021
00:51:08,939 --> 00:51:10,939
Let's go to the decision.
1022
00:51:11,019 --> 00:51:13,819
Lyndall?
I'm hopeful.
1023
00:51:13,899 --> 00:51:16,979
I do want to keep having fun.
I have had fun this week.
1024
00:51:17,059 --> 00:51:18,859
So I wrote 'stay'...
There you go.
1025
00:51:21,139 --> 00:51:22,859
What about you, Cam?
What you got for us?
1026
00:51:22,939 --> 00:51:28,819
Still a lot to learn, obviously.
But I want this to work.
1027
00:51:28,859 --> 00:51:30,979
Mama raised no quitter.
1028
00:51:32,459 --> 00:51:33,779
That's a 'stay'.
1029
00:51:33,859 --> 00:51:36,339
There's a little X on there
on the end too.
1030
00:51:36,419 --> 00:51:38,979
Hey, look, guys, you're both two
people that care about each other
1031
00:51:39,059 --> 00:51:40,659
and you're invested
and we can see that.
1032
00:51:40,699 --> 00:51:43,139
You'll get there.
1033
00:51:43,219 --> 00:51:45,579
And on that note,
you can go back to the group.
1034
00:51:45,659 --> 00:51:46,859
Thank you.
(APPLAUSE)
1035
00:51:51,699 --> 00:51:53,179
NARRATOR: Coming up...
1036
00:51:53,259 --> 00:51:56,059
Fatigue by 1,000 cuts,
I'd probably call it.
1037
00:51:56,139 --> 00:51:58,619
(SCOFFS) God...
..as Hugo opens up...
1038
00:51:58,699 --> 00:52:02,939
Literally just flailing around,
kind of terrified.
1039
00:52:02,979 --> 00:52:04,859
..Tayla shuts him down.
1040
00:52:05,979 --> 00:52:07,939
Just...
What are you talking about, Hugo?
1041
00:52:08,019 --> 00:52:09,619
..the little things
of how we've been...
1042
00:52:09,699 --> 00:52:11,179
Honestly!
But what are you talking about?
1043
00:52:11,219 --> 00:52:13,339
He's putting on an act.
1044
00:52:25,619 --> 00:52:26,899
Our next couple tonight...
1045
00:52:30,259 --> 00:52:31,379
Alyssa and Duncan.
1046
00:52:36,739 --> 00:52:38,419
Hello, you two.
Hi.
1047
00:52:38,459 --> 00:52:39,739
Hey.
1048
00:52:39,819 --> 00:52:42,459
Well, why don't you tell us
about your week?
1049
00:52:44,339 --> 00:52:46,299
Family and friends week, obviously.
Mm-hm.
1050
00:52:46,339 --> 00:52:47,739
It was a great week
1051
00:52:47,819 --> 00:52:52,739
but we also, you know, had some hard
discussions as well, so...
1052
00:52:52,819 --> 00:52:56,499
Right... So can we understand
what was going on there?
1053
00:52:57,779 --> 00:52:59,379
(EXHALES)
1054
00:53:01,539 --> 00:53:04,979
I think it's just thinking a lot
about the future
1055
00:53:05,059 --> 00:53:07,499
because, you know, we're more than
halfway through experiment.
1056
00:53:07,579 --> 00:53:10,259
Like, it's gonna come up really
quickly and I just, you know,
1057
00:53:10,339 --> 00:53:12,099
sometimes think that our lives
are very different
1058
00:53:12,179 --> 00:53:13,739
and I don't know how
that's gonna look.
1059
00:53:15,819 --> 00:53:18,099
Are you concerned
that this is not gonna work
1060
00:53:18,139 --> 00:53:19,299
when the experiment is over?
1061
00:53:19,339 --> 00:53:21,459
Yeah, totally I'm concerned.
1062
00:53:25,099 --> 00:53:28,419
I have a child and, like,
my child is gonna be my priority
1063
00:53:28,499 --> 00:53:33,099
and I've never been in
a relationship as a single mum,
1064
00:53:33,179 --> 00:53:34,899
so I don't even know
what that looks like.
1065
00:53:34,939 --> 00:53:36,619
JOHN: Gotcha.
1066
00:53:36,659 --> 00:53:39,459
MEL: Has Duncan said or done anything
1067
00:53:39,539 --> 00:53:41,779
to make you believe
that it won't work...
1068
00:53:41,859 --> 00:53:42,899
No.
..with your child?
1069
00:53:42,939 --> 00:53:45,099
No. No, it's my own insecurity.
1070
00:53:47,579 --> 00:53:50,619
I told myself I wasn't gonna cry
on the couch. (LAUGHS)
1071
00:53:52,579 --> 00:53:55,099
Sometimes I just think, like...
1072
00:53:57,699 --> 00:54:01,379
why would somebody want to date
someone that's a single mum
1073
00:54:01,459 --> 00:54:04,419
when he can, like, easily go
and date somebody else
1074
00:54:04,459 --> 00:54:05,539
that doesn't have a child,
1075
00:54:05,619 --> 00:54:07,299
that doesn't have, like,
all this baggage and everything?
1076
00:54:12,779 --> 00:54:14,979
So I guess it's like
a bit of self-sabotage.
1077
00:54:17,219 --> 00:54:19,019
But I just, like,
have a really hard time
1078
00:54:19,059 --> 00:54:22,059
of, like, feeling deserving of it...
1079
00:54:23,979 --> 00:54:27,179
and it's almost like it kind of
feels like it's too good to be true.
1080
00:54:27,219 --> 00:54:28,219
(CRIES)
1081
00:54:30,579 --> 00:54:32,299
Can I have a tissue, please?
1082
00:54:35,059 --> 00:54:37,939
Duncan, how does it feel
hearing Alyssa say that?
1083
00:54:37,979 --> 00:54:39,899
It's tough.
1084
00:54:39,939 --> 00:54:42,019
It's really tough.
1085
00:54:42,099 --> 00:54:48,299
I think it comes from Alyssa
feeling like that she's my priority
1086
00:54:48,379 --> 00:54:52,219
and so I feel like I do that
in the experiment.
1087
00:54:52,259 --> 00:54:54,619
So, Alyssa, what could Duncan do
1088
00:54:54,699 --> 00:54:58,259
to reassure you that he is in this
for the long haul?
1089
00:54:58,299 --> 00:54:59,979
I'm not sure.
1090
00:55:00,019 --> 00:55:02,099
I'm honestly... Like, I don't know.
1091
00:55:02,179 --> 00:55:04,979
I do feel really seen
and I do feel heard with Duncan
1092
00:55:05,059 --> 00:55:07,139
and that's not something
that I've ever had before
1093
00:55:07,219 --> 00:55:09,899
so then I think
it's a little bit scary for me
1094
00:55:09,979 --> 00:55:12,939
because, like, it does, you know,
feel really real.
1095
00:55:12,979 --> 00:55:14,619
What about you, Duncan?
1096
00:55:14,659 --> 00:55:16,379
Can you see anything at this point
1097
00:55:16,459 --> 00:55:20,059
that you could do differently
to reassure Alyssa?
1098
00:55:20,139 --> 00:55:22,859
Look, I mean, we've had
plenty of these discussions.
1099
00:55:22,899 --> 00:55:25,379
One of the first things I said was,
1100
00:55:25,459 --> 00:55:28,939
"Have a look at how I applied
for this experiment."
1101
00:55:29,019 --> 00:55:31,539
I said that I'm happy
to be matched with someone
1102
00:55:31,579 --> 00:55:34,179
with or without a child.
1103
00:55:34,259 --> 00:55:36,619
You know, there's going to be
challenges on the real world
1104
00:55:36,659 --> 00:55:38,579
but I'm really happy
1105
00:55:38,659 --> 00:55:41,499
to get into the weeds
of what that's gonna look like.
1106
00:55:43,059 --> 00:55:45,899
I'm not shying away
from those discussions.
1107
00:55:47,979 --> 00:55:50,379
I'm extremely committed
to this relationship
1108
00:55:50,459 --> 00:55:54,859
and more importantly to seeing what
it's gonna look like on the outside.
1109
00:55:57,019 --> 00:56:00,219
Powerful words. You hear them?
1110
00:56:00,259 --> 00:56:02,499
Yeah. I do.
1111
00:56:02,579 --> 00:56:05,859
Well, on that note, why don't we go
to the decision, guys?
1112
00:56:05,899 --> 00:56:07,339
Alyssa, over to you.
1113
00:56:09,539 --> 00:56:13,259
It's really real
and it's really scary for me
1114
00:56:13,339 --> 00:56:15,459
to kind of jump right in
and be very vulnerable
1115
00:56:15,499 --> 00:56:17,019
but that's what I came for
1116
00:56:17,099 --> 00:56:22,179
and I'm so lucky and very proud to
have, you know, Duncan as my match,
1117
00:56:22,219 --> 00:56:24,459
so clearly I wrote 'stay'.
1118
00:56:24,499 --> 00:56:25,899
Wonderful.
1119
00:56:27,539 --> 00:56:29,379
OK, Duncan, your decision?
1120
00:56:29,419 --> 00:56:30,619
Sure.
1121
00:56:32,059 --> 00:56:34,379
If I continue to show up
1122
00:56:34,459 --> 00:56:36,979
and I think I know
some of the things that I can do
1123
00:56:37,019 --> 00:56:38,939
that just helps things go forward...
1124
00:56:39,019 --> 00:56:41,819
and I'm looking forward
to continuing our little...
1125
00:56:41,899 --> 00:56:43,659
What did you say? (LAUGHS)
I'm sorry.
1126
00:56:43,739 --> 00:56:45,499
Put her out of her misery.
So, stay.
1127
00:56:45,579 --> 00:56:47,979
Oh, thank you.
(LAUGHS)
1128
00:56:50,699 --> 00:56:52,619
Alright, you guys.
1129
00:56:52,699 --> 00:56:56,019
For you, Alyssa, hear him
when he says he's in this...
1130
00:56:56,099 --> 00:56:57,939
Yep.
..with you, because I think...
1131
00:56:58,019 --> 00:57:02,299
I think he's for real.
I think he's for real. (LAUGHS)
1132
00:57:02,379 --> 00:57:04,979
And I think you are starting to
realise that too... Yeah.
1133
00:57:05,059 --> 00:57:06,619
..and that's probably why
it's quite scary.
1134
00:57:06,699 --> 00:57:07,819
Yeah.
And I get that.
1135
00:57:07,899 --> 00:57:09,499
There's a lot at stake here.
Mmm.
1136
00:57:09,539 --> 00:57:10,539
And maybe this week, guys,
1137
00:57:10,619 --> 00:57:13,099
just more of this chat about
"This is what I expect."
1138
00:57:13,179 --> 00:57:14,659
Yeah.
"This is what I need from you.
1139
00:57:14,739 --> 00:57:17,659
"How can we make sure we're both
really clear in our communication?"
1140
00:57:17,739 --> 00:57:19,139
Yep.
Yep.
1141
00:57:19,219 --> 00:57:20,699
Good on you, guys.
Thank you. Good luck.
1142
00:57:20,779 --> 00:57:22,259
Thank you.
Have an excellent week, you guys.
1143
00:57:22,339 --> 00:57:23,419
Thank you.
Thank you.
1144
00:57:27,219 --> 00:57:29,859
JOHN: Our last couple
up on the couch...
1145
00:57:29,899 --> 00:57:32,699
(TENSE MUSIC)
1146
00:57:32,739 --> 00:57:34,339
..Tayla and Hugo.
1147
00:57:41,099 --> 00:57:43,059
Hello.
Hello.
1148
00:57:43,139 --> 00:57:46,899
Hi.
Hey, gang.
1149
00:57:46,979 --> 00:57:50,859
Well, it was a big night last night
for you two, wasn't it?
1150
00:57:53,259 --> 00:57:55,419
Who wants to kick it off?
1151
00:57:55,499 --> 00:57:58,779
I don't really have too much to say,
actually.
1152
00:57:58,819 --> 00:58:01,819
(TENSE MUSIC)
1153
00:58:04,499 --> 00:58:06,619
Hugo, what do you think?
Sure.
1154
00:58:08,259 --> 00:58:10,539
Yeah, last night was wild.
1155
00:58:11,859 --> 00:58:14,099
And I have not been having
a good week
1156
00:58:14,179 --> 00:58:19,739
and I haven't been handling how I've
been feeling this week very well
1157
00:58:19,779 --> 00:58:21,139
or...
1158
00:58:26,139 --> 00:58:27,899
Well, let's talk about last night,
1159
00:58:27,979 --> 00:58:32,179
the revelations that came out
from Evelyn.
1160
00:58:34,459 --> 00:58:38,099
Obviously, Saturday night,
went out with the boys
1161
00:58:38,179 --> 00:58:41,779
and, look,
I conducted myself poorly.
1162
00:58:41,819 --> 00:58:44,379
I absolutely admit that.
1163
00:58:44,459 --> 00:58:46,939
I said to the guys, you know,
"I just feel like
1164
00:58:47,019 --> 00:58:49,859
"we've been given this
insanely incredible opportunity
1165
00:58:49,939 --> 00:58:54,299
"and I wish, you know, I'd been
paired up with any other wife
1166
00:58:54,339 --> 00:58:56,419
"or any other applicant"
1167
00:58:56,499 --> 00:59:02,299
and it all kind of came out
in a bit of a rant to the boys.
1168
00:59:02,379 --> 00:59:05,659
So I thought I was doing it in
a place that, you know, was safe,
1169
00:59:05,739 --> 00:59:10,219
I could get it out
and could reset and come back
1170
00:59:10,259 --> 00:59:11,779
and, I guess, try and continue
1171
00:59:11,859 --> 00:59:15,739
to give the best version of myself
to the relationship.
1172
00:59:18,259 --> 00:59:21,579
I had no idea
that there was a "butt-dial".
1173
00:59:22,979 --> 00:59:24,699
It WAS a butt-dial.
1174
00:59:24,739 --> 00:59:28,019
I know. Sure. Sure. OK.
1175
00:59:29,539 --> 00:59:31,979
Yeah, it was one. Sorry.
1176
00:59:32,059 --> 00:59:34,299
HARRISON: And you heard all of this
in the butt-dial?
1177
00:59:34,379 --> 00:59:38,139
Not those exact words
but along those lines, yes.
1178
00:59:40,099 --> 00:59:42,819
I just don't know how a butt-dial
gets through facial ID,
1179
00:59:42,859 --> 00:59:44,859
a locked screen on an iPhone.
1180
00:59:44,939 --> 00:59:46,979
RUPERT: It kind of pisses me off
that you keep...
1181
00:59:47,019 --> 00:59:48,219
Like, just own it.
1182
00:59:48,299 --> 00:59:50,779
And obviously
the butt-dial did happen
1183
00:59:50,859 --> 00:59:52,819
and I feel like
you're not really owning it.
1184
00:59:52,859 --> 00:59:53,859
You just keep saying...
1185
00:59:53,939 --> 00:59:55,219
I think I've absolutely
just owned it.
1186
00:59:55,299 --> 00:59:58,099
Yeah, then why do you keep saying
"I thought I was in a safe space"?
1187
00:59:58,179 --> 01:00:01,259
'Cause I legitimately had no idea
that there had been a butt-dial.
1188
01:00:01,299 --> 01:00:02,899
I was just sharing with the boys.
1189
01:00:02,979 --> 01:00:05,419
I feel like you're just putting it
back on me that...
1190
01:00:05,499 --> 01:00:08,139
Bro, no part...
HARRISON: Why do you feel guilty?
1191
01:00:08,219 --> 01:00:09,539
Well, because, obviously,
the butt-dial...
1192
01:00:09,619 --> 01:00:12,019
Why are you accusing, Harrison?
You're sitting there looking like...
1193
01:00:12,059 --> 01:00:13,059
I'm asking a question.
1194
01:00:13,139 --> 01:00:15,019
You're not even involved
and you're just always accusing.
1195
01:00:15,059 --> 01:00:17,219
I'm not accusing anyone of anything.
1196
01:00:17,299 --> 01:00:19,179
You've both been looking
at each other
1197
01:00:19,259 --> 01:00:21,419
like it didn't happen
and then you're...
1198
01:00:21,499 --> 01:00:23,539
I don't believe it happened.
..getting arced up to come in.
1199
01:00:23,619 --> 01:00:27,339
I'll just come out and say it.
I don't believe it happened.
1200
01:00:35,299 --> 01:00:38,139
You've both been looking
at each other like it didn't happen.
1201
01:00:38,179 --> 01:00:39,379
I don't believe it happened.
1202
01:00:40,619 --> 01:00:42,539
You don't believe it happened?
I'll just come out and say it.
1203
01:00:42,579 --> 01:00:43,699
I don't believe it happened.
1204
01:00:43,739 --> 01:00:44,739
Of course you don't, Harrison,
1205
01:00:44,819 --> 01:00:47,139
because you weren't involved
and you love to be involved.
1206
01:00:47,219 --> 01:00:50,099
I will say... I will say...
That is so irrelevant.
1207
01:00:50,139 --> 01:00:52,619
JOHN: Well, guys, guys...
1208
01:00:52,659 --> 01:00:54,739
If I... Guys...
1209
01:00:54,819 --> 01:00:59,939
Regardless of whether someone
believes the butt-dial or not,
1210
01:01:00,019 --> 01:01:04,739
both people have admitted,
Daniel and Hugo,
1211
01:01:04,819 --> 01:01:09,179
that they said things
that hurt their partners.
1212
01:01:09,219 --> 01:01:11,259
That's fact.
1213
01:01:11,339 --> 01:01:15,699
And none of us were accepting
of that.
1214
01:01:15,739 --> 01:01:18,939
You can vent to friends
1215
01:01:19,019 --> 01:01:22,219
but calling people names and really
going in for character assassinations
1216
01:01:22,299 --> 01:01:26,259
is totally unacceptable
and disrespectful.
1217
01:01:27,979 --> 01:01:33,219
However, we've also got to look at
the pattern here
1218
01:01:33,299 --> 01:01:38,099
and there are patterns going on
between the two of you
1219
01:01:38,179 --> 01:01:41,579
where you guys aren't even close
to being a couple.
1220
01:01:43,099 --> 01:01:46,779
Hugo, do you like Tayla?
1221
01:01:46,859 --> 01:01:52,419
Yeah, I like Tayla but I feel really
insecure around her.
1222
01:01:54,819 --> 01:01:56,179
In what way?
1223
01:01:56,259 --> 01:01:59,819
Well, I mean,
body language isn't great.
1224
01:01:59,859 --> 01:02:02,939
Little things that put you on guard.
1225
01:02:02,979 --> 01:02:04,539
I'm affectionate.
1226
01:02:04,619 --> 01:02:06,219
You know, coming in
for the dinner party,
1227
01:02:06,299 --> 01:02:08,579
"You look really nice,"
kiss on the cheek.
1228
01:02:08,659 --> 01:02:10,739
I remember you said
you didn't appreciate that.
1229
01:02:10,779 --> 01:02:12,419
Like, my guard's up
1230
01:02:12,499 --> 01:02:15,899
and I'm not really sure what to do
to help us progress.
1231
01:02:17,459 --> 01:02:20,779
You're shaking your head, Tayla.
I'm seeing it. What's wrong?
1232
01:02:20,859 --> 01:02:22,939
Yeah, because I don't know WHY
he kissed me on the cheek.
1233
01:02:23,979 --> 01:02:26,779
European family.
Like, kiss on the cheek is just...
1234
01:02:26,859 --> 01:02:29,579
But I told you,
don't make advances like that.
1235
01:02:29,619 --> 01:02:31,019
Sorry.
1236
01:02:33,019 --> 01:02:34,259
I have...
1237
01:02:34,339 --> 01:02:38,099
Did anyone else kiss you on the cheek
last night to greet you?
1238
01:02:45,819 --> 01:02:46,819
Yeah.
1239
01:02:46,899 --> 01:02:48,419
That's like an Australian thing,
right?
1240
01:02:49,939 --> 01:02:51,299
I probably might have.
1241
01:02:51,339 --> 01:02:53,299
Did any of that bother you?
1242
01:02:53,339 --> 01:02:55,419
No, it didn't.
1243
01:02:57,859 --> 01:03:03,819
But him showing any physical touch
towards me,
1244
01:03:03,899 --> 01:03:07,939
I've made that very clear,
I don't want that.
1245
01:03:08,019 --> 01:03:10,819
Even a kiss on the cheek
or a greeting hello?
1246
01:03:10,899 --> 01:03:12,699
Yes. Yes.
When that's, like...
1247
01:03:12,739 --> 01:03:13,859
I don't want that.
1248
01:03:13,939 --> 01:03:15,619
..where I know that your head's at
about me,
1249
01:03:15,699 --> 01:03:20,979
I just don't know what the right
thing is to do most of the time now.
1250
01:03:23,179 --> 01:03:25,979
Tayla, do you think your behaviour
towards Hugo
1251
01:03:26,019 --> 01:03:29,459
suggests that you like him?
1252
01:03:29,539 --> 01:03:32,739
I do like Hugo. Well...
Answer the question.
1253
01:03:32,779 --> 01:03:34,699
No, no, no. No, no, no.
1254
01:03:34,739 --> 01:03:39,379
Does your behaviour towards Hugo
1255
01:03:39,459 --> 01:03:42,139
give him a sense
that you even like him a little bit?
1256
01:03:45,459 --> 01:03:47,539
Yes.
How?
1257
01:03:47,619 --> 01:03:51,219
Because you guys don't see
what happens behind closed doors!
1258
01:03:51,299 --> 01:03:52,779
He doesn't see it.
This is the thing.
1259
01:03:52,859 --> 01:03:54,339
That's what he's trying to say
to you.
1260
01:03:54,419 --> 01:03:57,699
Why am I getting the bad wrap
right now? I don't understand this.
1261
01:03:57,779 --> 01:04:00,659
Because we've got to look at
relationships from both sides.
1262
01:04:00,739 --> 01:04:04,859
He's taking some responsibility.
I'm not hearing it from you.
1263
01:04:04,899 --> 01:04:07,099
He thinks you don't like him.
1264
01:04:08,419 --> 01:04:09,859
Oh...
1265
01:04:09,939 --> 01:04:12,059
What do you do
to suggest that you like him?
1266
01:04:13,099 --> 01:04:16,539
I truly feel like I've made
a bit more of an effort than Hugo.
1267
01:04:16,619 --> 01:04:19,139
I think I've been trying to ask
more questions,
1268
01:04:19,179 --> 01:04:20,899
trying to engage in conversation.
1269
01:04:20,939 --> 01:04:23,459
You know, I'm watching HIS shows
1270
01:04:23,539 --> 01:04:25,859
and letting HIM choose the meal
and things like that.
1271
01:04:27,499 --> 01:04:30,539
I just want to pull you up on some of
the language that you're using here.
1272
01:04:30,619 --> 01:04:32,779
Do you realise you're saying
"letting him"?
1273
01:04:32,819 --> 01:04:35,539
What would I say otherwise?
1274
01:04:35,619 --> 01:04:37,739
What do YOU think you could say
that might be different?
1275
01:04:40,539 --> 01:04:41,699
I don't know.
1276
01:04:41,739 --> 01:04:43,899
JOHN: Let me ask you this, Tayla.
1277
01:04:43,979 --> 01:04:48,979
What behaviours do you think
you're doing
1278
01:04:49,059 --> 01:04:53,219
that is responsible
for this relationship issue?
1279

Mmm...
1282
01:05:13,219 --> 01:05:14,979
I don't know.
1283
01:05:15,019 --> 01:05:16,179
That's your problem.
1284
01:05:19,339 --> 01:05:22,219
Hugo, what are you doing
1285
01:05:22,299 --> 01:05:25,059
to contribute
to this relationship problem?
1286
01:05:26,859 --> 01:05:28,259
When I feel uncomfortable,
1287
01:05:28,339 --> 01:05:33,259
I withdraw instead of trying to
communicate why I'm upset.
1288
01:05:33,339 --> 01:05:36,339
I need to be taking
a lot more initiative
1289
01:05:36,419 --> 01:05:41,059
in making her feel secure
and also happy.
1290
01:05:41,139 --> 01:05:46,979
But I don't really know how to
right this ship at the moment.
1291
01:05:48,859 --> 01:05:51,499
I have no idea.
1292
01:05:51,579 --> 01:05:56,019
I'm literally just flailing around,
kind of terrified.
1293
01:05:58,379 --> 01:05:59,939
Terrified of Tayla?
1294
01:06:00,019 --> 01:06:06,019
Terrified of doing the wrong thing,
terrified of upsetting you more
1295
01:06:06,099 --> 01:06:09,019
and I feel like I'm trying to give,
like,
1296
01:06:09,099 --> 01:06:11,819
a best first impression
every single time.
1297
01:06:14,499 --> 01:06:17,619
Oh... I'm sorry, I just don't know
what he's talking about.
1298
01:06:19,419 --> 01:06:22,739
It's not like you've been
in the corner scared of me.
1299
01:06:22,779 --> 01:06:26,699
I've not said anything to you
1300
01:06:26,779 --> 01:06:30,459
that you should feel upset about
or scared about.
1301
01:06:30,539 --> 01:06:31,739
No...
And that is the only...
1302
01:06:31,819 --> 01:06:35,459
I said scared about doing
the wrong thing.
1303
01:06:35,539 --> 01:06:39,699
I said terrified of, you know,
putting my foot in it
1304
01:06:39,739 --> 01:06:41,139
or making another mistake
1305
01:06:41,219 --> 01:06:44,539
because I just want us to feel like
we're on the same page
1306
01:06:44,579 --> 01:06:45,859
and on the same team.
1307
01:06:47,699 --> 01:06:49,619
He's putting on an act.
1308
01:06:49,699 --> 01:06:53,659
I could sit here with my head down
and act really sad
1309
01:06:53,739 --> 01:06:57,459
but I'm not going to do that
and I'm the one that's been hurt!
1310
01:06:57,499 --> 01:06:59,299
MEL: Have you been hurt, Hugo?
1311
01:07:00,779 --> 01:07:04,259
Yeah, I guess fatigued by
1,000 cuts, I'd probably call it.
1312
01:07:04,339 --> 01:07:07,019
(SCOFFS) God...
Just...
1313
01:07:07,099 --> 01:07:09,499
What are you talking about, Hugo?
Just the little things of how we...
1314
01:07:09,579 --> 01:07:11,459
Honestly!
Just all the tiny little things...
1315
01:07:11,539 --> 01:07:12,579
Honestly!
..in the weeks...
1316
01:07:12,659 --> 01:07:15,539
But, no, we haven't, though!
What are you talking about?
1317
01:07:15,619 --> 01:07:19,099
You haven't acted like this at all!
Be real!
1318
01:07:19,179 --> 01:07:23,339
I've been smiling and just trying to
present the best version of myself
1319
01:07:23,419 --> 01:07:25,499
every single time to try and push
past feeling uncomfortable...
1320
01:07:25,579 --> 01:07:28,179
No, you've been acting like
a completely different person...
1321
01:07:30,099 --> 01:07:31,979
because that's what you do.
1322
01:07:32,019 --> 01:07:33,459
OK.
1323
01:07:33,539 --> 01:07:36,059
Act sad again. OK.
Alright, sorry.
1324
01:07:39,059 --> 01:07:41,819
Well, there's clearly work
to be done here. (EXHALES)
1325
01:07:41,859 --> 01:07:44,979
Let's go to the decision for now.
1326
01:07:45,019 --> 01:07:47,059
Tayla, we'll go to you first.
1327
01:07:47,139 --> 01:07:51,579
I came here really wanting to find
a partner to have children with
1328
01:07:51,659 --> 01:07:57,099
and I don't think someone calling me
a (BLEEP)
1329
01:07:57,139 --> 01:07:59,459
is the right person for me,
1330
01:07:59,499 --> 01:08:00,659
so I chose to leave.
1331
01:08:04,579 --> 01:08:05,899
Hugo?
1332
01:08:08,939 --> 01:08:12,019
This week,
it has been difficult between us.
1333
01:08:12,099 --> 01:08:18,419
I do regret what I said
out with the boys
1334
01:08:18,459 --> 01:08:20,539
and that it has hurt you
1335
01:08:20,619 --> 01:08:23,579
but I do want to work towards
repairing that
1336
01:08:23,659 --> 01:08:28,099
and I do want you to feel like
you can trust me again, so...

1338
01:08:31,459 --> 01:08:36,939

things up, I did write 'stay'.

01:08:42,019 --> 01:08:43,739
OK.

01:08:43,779 --> 01:08:46,059
I don't know why you did that, Hugo.

No, you don't.

OK, I don't.

Just because he says it,
doesn't mean it's the truth.
1355

Why did you put 'stay'?
1356

01:10:05,299 --> 01:10:07,539
and try and make it a bit better
at least between us.

1366
01:10:41,539 --> 01:10:42,939
and the other person says leave,
1367
01:10:43,019 --> 01:10:48,699
that we get the couple to stay
to see if they can turn it around.
1368
01:10:48,779 --> 01:10:53,499
We're not saying that you don't feel
what you're feeling,
1369
01:10:53,579 --> 01:10:58,059
we're just saying that
it may be very different
1370
01:10:58,139 --> 01:11:00,339
to what you may feel
tomorrow morning.
1371
01:11:02,419 --> 01:11:05,779
On that note, guys,
you can go back to the group.
1372
01:11:05,819 --> 01:11:07,579
Thank you.
1373
01:11:13,099 --> 01:11:14,579
(CRIES)
1374
01:11:18,739 --> 01:11:20,699
Tayla... Tayla...
1375
01:11:20,739 --> 01:11:22,299
Tayla, wait.
1376
01:11:22,339 --> 01:11:23,899
Hey, it's alright.
1377
01:11:23,979 --> 01:11:26,019
No, seriously, (BLEEP) this.
I'm going home.
1378
01:11:29,099 --> 01:11:30,179
NARRATOR: Tomorrow night...
1379
01:11:30,259 --> 01:11:32,819
Oh, my god.
Oh, so pretty!
1380
01:11:32,899 --> 01:11:38,019
..our newlyweds head out
on a four-day couples' retreat.
1381
01:11:38,099 --> 01:11:40,259
Getting away and spending time
in a new environment
1382
01:11:40,299 --> 01:11:42,219
can help break negative patterns
1383
01:11:42,299 --> 01:11:45,939
and get a fresh perspective on
their marriage in a social setting.
1384
01:11:46,019 --> 01:11:48,539
CLAIRE: It's been quite a while
since Jesse and I shared a bed,
1385
01:11:48,579 --> 01:11:49,619
so I'm really hoping
1386
01:11:49,699 --> 01:11:52,579
that this retreat can romanticise us
a little bit.
1387
01:11:52,619 --> 01:11:54,539
But there will be a shocking turn...
1388
01:11:54,579 --> 01:11:56,859
Give me attention. I need attention.
1389
01:11:56,899 --> 01:11:59,379
..for one of our strongest couples.
1390
01:12:03,819 --> 01:12:05,379
And...
(CONTESTANTS CHEER)
1391
01:12:05,419 --> 01:12:07,259
..it's girls' and boys' night,
1392
01:12:07,339 --> 01:12:12,619
where Melinda's got unfinished
business with Bronte and Harrison.
1393
01:12:20,979 --> 01:12:23,579
MELINDA: Bronte, wake up.
1394
01:12:24,939 --> 01:12:29,659
She has the devil talking in her ear
and the devil is Harrison.
1395
