That story tomorrow.

Couples Retreat! Let's go!

NARRATOR: Previously...

(SHRIEKING)

..the now newlyweds
arrived at the Couples Retreat.

MAN: It's the closest
we've been in weeks.

(KISSES) Gotcha!

An emotional Timothy
finally lowered his walls.

LUCINDA: I've never seen that side
of Tim. It was a real turnaround.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

TIM: You said over-the-top
compliments to Sara.

She said that you kissed her
on the neck.

Jack was at the centre
of the storm...

You tapped her on the arse
and she was like...

This is bullshit, I...
I'm still speaking.

..when he called Tristan a whale...

TRISTAN: I hate pools,
hate taking my shirt off,

and you've rocked up, being like,
"Oh, look at all the whales here."

It's a joke!

I can't support that, Jack.
I cannot support that.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..but it was a highly anxious Eden...

..who finally revealed
a massive secret about Sara.

She said, "I'm seeing
my ex-boyfriend."

MAN: Meeting up with your ex-partner
behind your husband's back,

that's a form of cheating.

EDEN: If I was Tim,
I would want to know.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Tonight...

Cheers!

EDEN: I've been cheated on
in the past,

and I had no-one tell me.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm not gonna watch Tim
look like a fool like that.

..Eden's ultimatum.

I'm gonna give you
the opportunity now

to tell Tim
what you did last weekend,

otherwise we will do it.

Will Sara confess to Tim...

We will tell him
if you don't tell him, Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

..as the night...
Oh, no.

..descends into chaos?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

(ALL GASP AND EXCLAIM)
WOMAN: Oh, my god!

(ALL EXCLAIM)

(MEL GASPS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

After an explosive Couples Retreat,

where their relationships were put
to the test in a fresh environment,

our couples have returned
to SKYE Suites

and are getting ready
for the fifth dinner party

of the experiment.

For Jade and Ridge, the Couples
Retreat is already a distant memory,

as they celebrated a monumental
milestone this morning,

when Ridge was introduced
to Jade's daughter, Vee,

for the very first time.

She was right in front of me.
I was like, "Uh...hey!"

But, no, it was good.

It was so nice and warm
to see you with her,

and kissing her the way you do.

I was like, "Oh!" It was very cute.

So, I met Vee,
Jade's daughter this morning.

This is a really important thing
for me and Jade.

To make our relationship
progress to the next level,

Vee has to be a part of that.

There's a lot riding on this,

because there's no Jade
without Vee.

If I said I wasn't nervous,
I'd be lying to you.

The last time I was that nervous
was at the wedding day,

waiting for you at the altar.

But I felt very honoured that
you would put me in that position,

because I know
it's not easy for you.

I want her to feel comfortable,

I want her to feel
safe and secure with me,

and for her to let me
meet her daughter,

must be doing something right.

You said you don't date a lot.

I know you don't introduce Vee
to a lot of dudes.

So, to make the cut,
I'm gonna go shadow-box.

(GRUNTS) You know?

Just... (LAUGHS)
..feeling pretty good.

(LAUGHTER)

It was so nice seeing her.

I'm, like, very excited for us all
to spend time together.

It's very wholesome.

I just feel like, every week,
things are getting better with us.

And now I definitely do see things
long-term with Ridge.

Ready to go?

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

Jade and Ridge aren't the only couple
to have made progress this week.

Lucinda and Timothy
are also flying high

following their breakthrough
on retreat.

TIMOTHY: Those three days
were pretty intense.

Mmm.

Day two was...unexpected.

At the retreat.

Lucinda brought out a side of me
that I didn't know existed.

After an emotional few days
saw Timothy opening up...

I'm defensive, you know?

..Timothy finally trusted Lucinda
enough to lower his guard...

..and reveal his true
vulnerabilities.

(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I've never seen that side of Tim.

It was a real turnaround,

and I just wanna, like,
be in devotion to that.

(UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Lucinda and I,
we're actually pretty in sync.

You know, I really appreciate
that she was there for me.

You really are a true Gemini.
(LAUGHS)

(UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Walls are down.

In deep flow
and appreciation of each other,

and I'm just getting to know,
more and more, the real Tim -

what he stands for,
his soft heart.

Certainly a ride with you. (LAUGHS)

Tell you what...
It's unexpected! (LAUGHS)

The ups, the downs,
the ins, the outs.

I feel that Tim and I are getting
closer and closer every day.

Yeah, it feels good. (CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHTER)

But while the retreat brought Lucinda
and Timothy closer together,

Timothy's thoughts have now turned
to close friend Tristan,

who had a tough time away
following Jack's unsavoury comments.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

When we were at the pool yesterday,

you had the audacity to walk in
and go,

"Oh, what -
are the whales here today?"

Oh!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

These are just cheap shots.

Like, there's banter happening
all over the place.

MICHAEL: But that, like,
the whale comment's

kind of a body image attack.

That's just not right.
Yeah, that's body shaming!

Like, that's not on at all!
Yeah, it's body shaming.

If I've...said that, yeah,
outrageous banter.

Like, absolute banter bullshit,

and it's not the only banter
I hear here.

That's a deflection bullshit!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Everyone's worried about my boy,
you know?

About Tristan?
Yep.

I'm close to Tristan.

The whale comment down by the pool
really upset him.

You've really taken him under
your wing as your son, haven't you?

He's cool.
He's the son you never had!

Mmm.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Jack has to answer for this.

It's unacceptable.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

But Timothy isn't the only person
concerned for Tristan's welfare.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

Tristan is so fragile today.

Jack's comment really affected him.

He was so hurt by it.

I'm just so angry.

TRISTAN: I'm struggling.

It just felt, when the whole weight
thing came up, it was just like,

"Oh, (BLEEP), I'm definitely the fat
dude in the group, aren't I?"

(SIGHS)

That comment, uh...it's annoying
how much it rocked me.

It's the comments like that
that mess me up.

I'm emotionally fried right now.

It's so hard to explain.

Just...I feel like the 14-,
15-year-old fat schoolkids again.

(SOMBRE MUSIC CONTINUES)

I don't want him to feel that way.

He's so special.
He just doesn't know it!

He doesn't see it.

I just wanna let you know
that I care so much.

Thank you for being, probably, the
best person in my life, you know?

(STIRRING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

While Tristan tries to put
the whale comment behind him,

one person who can't let
the comment slide is Lauren,

who is still frustrated with
Jack's behaviour at the retreat.

LAUREN: Isn't Jack, like, a trainer?

Like, imagine if his clients knew

that he was talking like that
about people.

Yeah.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Jack has personally attacked people
for their body image.

Like, that kills me!

That really, really shits me,

and it makes me quite passionate

about, like, making Jack
accountable.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

I feel like we're getting
to the end of the experiment

and he's treating everyone
like shit.

What needs to happen to Tori
to go, "Enough's enough"?

Well, that's what I asked her
on the Girls Night,

and she kind of
just kept saying, like,

"Jack feels so bad,
he feels so bad!"

She's in damage control mode, 100%.
Yeah.

He's called me a dog,
like, Tristan a whale.

I want to make Jack apologise
in front of the whole group.

That's what my goal is for tonight.

"You will apologise!"

(TENSE CELLO MUSIC)

I'm so over seeing his nipple.

Highly offensive
to my sensibilities.

I don't think
anyone needs to see that.

(JONATHAN AND LAUREN LAUGH)

Who has a singlet, like,
that goes like this?

I'm gonna find out who makes them

and I'm gonna send them
a cease-and-desist.

(LAUGHS)

(TENSE MUSIC SWELLS)

How's the cold going?
(CROAKY) It's not great.

(LAUGHS) How's your voice?

I feel like the one night
I'm gonna need a voice,

I'm not gonna have one.

My wife is quite sick tonight.

I said, "You could stay home,"

and she said, "I wouldn't let you
go by yourself."

That's my wife.

Oh, yeah, last night
I had a rough night.

Um, 'cause of my comment
at the pool.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Not that I said it to him.

Yeah, it's been really hard for me
to get past it.

It was just a joke. Banter.

Um, but...yeah, I just can't get it
out of my head. I can't shake it.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Tristan's a bit of a sensitive soul,

and to see him, like, hurt hurts.

I (BLEEP) up all the time.
We all do. We're human.

Let's not make, like,
a habit of it, though.

Let's exercise some refinement,
moving forward.

Refinement is the word.
Yep.

I...you know, self...self-growth.

I'm open for it.

I always wanna improve.
You can help me there.

I got the best wife here, by far,

and I've got such a strong bond
with Tori.

It's something
that's really special,

and definitely think
we're pissing people off,

but I think they're just jealous.

I really feel like the focus,
for us, has shifted.

We're, like, battling
all this external noise.

Yeah, I agree.

People are getting a bit envious
that we're so tight,

and it frustrates people.

TORI: There's no denying
I'm very disappointed in Jack,

and he knows he's got
a lot of work to do.

He knows he needs
to make it up to me,

um, but everyone makes mistakes.

But I don't think
that's gonna happen.

In stark contrast to Jack and Tori's
controversial time at the retreat,

Sara and Tim have returned
closer than ever.

Yeah, like that, yep. Perfect.

It does feel like there has been
a pretty monumental shift

between Sara and myself.

Like, I showed her
that I can have her back.

Jack, I've got a bone
to pick with you,

because you've made my wife
feel uncomfortable

over the course of this experiment,

and I've sort of
brushed it off to her,

and I apologise to you for not,
like, taking it seriously.

This is bullshit! I'm not...
I'm still speaking.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

You've done a few things,
you know, like,

you said over-the-top compliments
to Sara.

You tapped her on the arse
and she was like,

"Oh, I wasn't too sure about it."

But she said that you kissed her
on the neck!

It's made her feel uncomfortable,
and she doesn't like it at all.

It's time for me to call it out,
and it's not acceptable.

Good on you, Tim.
Well done, Tim.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

I felt like that night was really
make-or-break for us,

and I wanted to stand up
and do what's right for her

and what's right for our
relationship, and I did that.

And now I'm feeling the warmth,
I'm feeling the love.

Looking like Mrs Great Gatsby
over here.

(LAUGHS)

It's definitely nice

to see that warmer, softer side
of Sara, for sure.

I've been digging and trying
to find it for the last two months,

and, yeah, it feels like we've
really had a bit of a breakthrough.

I think this is the best that
we've been this whole experiment.

We can just hang out, the two of us.

Yeah, just chill out.
In our own little world.

On this arm?
Yeah, yeah.

Tim and I are in
a really good spot.

The retreat has brought us
closer together.

I think because we both have been
so honest with everything,

it's allowed us to connect on
an even, like, deeper level.

So, I guess we'll just see
how tonight goes.

It could be a very tame
dinner party.

(TIM LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

But unbeknownst to Tim,
new information has come to light.

Shocking claims that threaten
to derail his marriage.

(HAUNTING MUSIC)

(HEAVY BREATHING)

And at the centre...

(HEAVY BREATHING)

..sitting on this bombshell...

(HAUNTING MUSIC CONTINUES)

..one person knows the truth.

(HAUNTING MUSIC SWELLS)

EDEN: And I feel really guilty
about what I know.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

It is what's been eating me alive.

It's brought out the worst
in my anxiety,

and it's really unfortunate
for Jayden and I,

because it's over an issue

that's literally nothing to do
with either of us.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JAYDEN: Like, has anything else
happened? Just, like...

Before retreat, someone in
the experiment sent me a message,

asked me for clothes,

and she's like, "I wanna wear
a cool top to dinner tonight."

And I was like, "Sweet."
Yeah.

So, I was sending her photos
of the tops that I had

and I'd written to her,
"Where are you going for dinner?"

And when I opened it, she said...um,

"I'm seeing my ex-boyfriend."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Who is it?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

It's Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Are you ready?

A little bit nervous.
Yeah. That's OK.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I feel like she'll say
she didn't do it.

That's why I've been so unsure
about it this whole time.

Like, I've just not known what way
she'll take it and what she'll do.

Mmm.

TIM: It's Mrs Great Gatsby
over here.

(LAUGHS)

You're doing this 'cause this IS
the right thing to do.

Yep. Yeah.

It's wrong. What she's done is
disgusting, and it is cheating.

So...
Yeah.

SARA: I feel like we get
stronger and stronger.

I think that too.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

When my ex was cheating on me...

Mmm.
..everyone knew about it.

No-one told me.
Mm-hm. Yep, me too.

And I felt like an idiot.

There's the embarrassment
on top of the cheating,

then there's the betrayal.

I just don't know
how Tim's gonna take it.

Yeah, I think Tim
will be pretty upset.

I think Tim really likes Sara

and I think that's why
I feel so sorry for him,

because I don't think he knows
what's going on.

It's OK. I got you!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Going into tonight,
if anything does happen...

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Let's go.

..I feel like we're just gonna be
a united front.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

You're always gonna have me.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

What do you reckon? We head off?
Yep.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Jayden's always got my back,
but I'm just so nervous.

Without a doubt,
it's going to blow up tonight,

and I might be responsible for,
potentially,

breaking up their relationship.

Mmm.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

LUCINDA: Yay!

Dinner party, yay!
Hi! Whoo!

Um...
I'm excited.

Yeah.

Hanging out with
all of our gorgeous friends.

Yeah!
(LAUGHTER)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

JOHN: Well, here we are -
dinner party number five,

and it comes straight after
the Couples Retreat.

Of course, this is when our couples
have had that opportunity

to leave the bubble
of the experiment.

They're out of their routine.

ALESSANDRA: And they actually really
get to spend a lot of time together.

We'll see those dynamics
really come into play.

I definitely see you
in a different light.

Like, much better light.

Really?
Mm-hm.

There's no real hiding
at the Couples Retreat,

and I find that very revealing.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..that I was friends with

that knew about my ex
cheating on me,

I won't speak to anymore.

Yeah, no way.
And that didn't tell me.

I've never spoke to them ever again.

Definitely feels good to be united.

Mmm.
You know?

I feel like I know what I need to do
to show that I have your back.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

Everyone kept saying,
"Oh, it wasn't my place to say it."

Well, then, whose place is it?
Exactly.

Because someone needs to speak up.
Yeah.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

JOHN: Here we go.

Mmm. First in.

Wow! Sara and Tim - first couple in.
Yeah.

And looking very strong
and very together.

(CORN POPS)

SARA:

(TIM LAUGHS)

Walking in tonight with Sara -
united, same team.

Looking forward to it.
Yeah, me too.

I feel like everyone's gonna have a
nice little debrief of the retreat.

Let's have a bit of fun together.

Just feeling good.

Alright. Cheers!
Cheers.

This was not the couple
we saw last week...

Not at all.
..at the commitment ceremony.

ALESSANDRA: Not at all!

MEL: She was initially
so against any form of PDA,

and now she's actually...

Kissing!
..initiating it, yes!

This is new!
It's amazing.

I mean, something clearly
has happened at the Couples Retreat.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I just hope there's no drama.

Like, I just can't...I don't think
I have it in me tonight. (LAUGHS)

If anybody comes for us...
I'ma step up.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

This has been literally
giving me crippling anxiety

for the last week.

Um, it's killing me.

JAYDEN: This is a big thing,

but you know,
I think we'll go in there.

We're gonna do exactly
what we say we're gonna do,

and I'm pretty sure you're gonna
have the support of the whole room.

Cheers to that.
Cheers to that.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

EDEN: I appreciate you saying that,

but I...am really nervous

that every single person in the room

is just gonna think
that I'm the worst friend ever.

TIM: Oooh, here we go.

Hello.
Yeah! (LAUGHS) Yes!

You two are illegally hot!

JOHN: Lucinda and Timothy.

They look happy!
They do!

They look like they're vibing.
What's up?

SARA: Do you guys want a drink?
TIMONTHY: Yeah.

Let's go!
Yes, yes, yes, yes.

For a second week in a row,

they seem to actually be
enjoying one another's company.

Yeah.

We've had a good few days
since the retreat.

I suspect it's been a bit hot.

Oooh!
(LAUGHTER)

Been a little bit hot
between you guys.

Lucinda loves to hear
about our sex life.

I do!
She loves asking about it.

'Cause, you know, you stood up,

and you were like,
"Let's go to the bedroom."

Everyone was, like, "Whoa, Tim!
Like, holy shit!"

Power move, Tim.

You can speak...
you can speak for me.

You know what turns her on
and what she needs.

Yeah!
Aren't you the man for the job?

Well, that gives us a little glimpse

into maybe what's happened
at the Couples Retreat.

MEL: Yes!

We know that Tim's spoken up,

and that's actually made him,
in a sense,

more attractive to Sara.

ALESSANDRA: Quite the turnaround.

Oh, we're so good!
Oh, good.

Really letting each other in.
That's nice.

It's, you know, slow burn.

He's worth it.
He's worth the exploration.

We're in a good spot.
You guys are?

Yeah, everything's sort of...
everything...

..you know, we had a great time.

Turns out I'm not such
a hard cold bastard after all.

(LAUGHS) Man's got a heart.

We've had a good run.

The retreat brought us closer
than we've been in a while.

Yeah, we've had a really good run.

And I feel like everybody met
the real Tim on retreat.

Um...the funniest part
was when we went into Byron...

Oh, god!

..and I told her not to get
an ice-cream before we got back,

and I just had to go
quickly do something...

No, you got yourself an ice-cream...

I know, but I got a little one!

(LAUGHTER)
But where was mine?

But we didn't have time
to get the ice-cream.

I saw him on the other side...
on the opposite thing,

just licking the ice-cream.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JACK: Oh, I've had enough.

I think everyone
should just turn a corner,

focus on your own relationship.

If I'm sitting in the middle
of that dinner table...

Nah.

..with Lauren opposite me,
I am leaving.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

He is such a slimeball, honestly.
He's so gross.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Like, he's literally petrified!

He doesn't want me
to bring anything up.

Like, he's...
he's a piss-weak coward.

I can't stand the dude!

Honestly, I'm pissed.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Thank you.

(CHEERING AND SHOUTING)

Oh, my god!

Hey! You look...

JOHN: Oh, Jonno and Lauren.

Very much linked up. Big smiles.

I know, right?

Oh! Hello!
Hi!

ALESSANDRA: So, Tristan
and Cassandra.

They look relatively, you know,
on track.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

How you doing?

Still a bit rundown from the trip.

I'm emotionally fried right now.

It's, like, "Oh, god!"

Oh, no. Clearly on the retreat.

Something's happened to Tristan.

How are we all feeling
after the big old retreat?

Obviously we all knew
about the comment Jack made.

The whale thing.

Yeah, I wanted to talk to you
about that.

So, Jack called me a whale.

I got a bit triggered by it again.

ALESSANDRA: A whale?
MEL: Ohh!

That's horrible.
That is so disrespectful!

Why would he do that?

I mean, he's a personal trainer
as well.

Right?

So, I did get into a pretty dark
place after it for a little bit.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

It makes me feel like
I'm that fat schoolkid,

back in high school again,
that used to get made fun of.

It's been a bit rough.

Jack said hurtful comments...

..and he's hurt the most likeable
guy in the experiment.

Tristan is putting out a very strong
perception that he's OK.

Now, my big question, though,
Mama and Papa,

we're back in Sydney -
how are we doing, you know?

TIMOTHY: But I know
that he's struggling.

Yeah.

It's, um...

(INHALES) ..we're all not perfect.

Jack, he's...it's just...

..there's a lot of shit
that's stacked up.

It's not like he didn't know
that Tristan's struggling with,

you know, self-esteem issues.

It's not like he didn't know that,

because he's come here and
he's been vulnerable with everyone,

on the couch, in front of everyone,
consistently...

Yeah.
..saying these things about himself.

Yeah.
So, everyone is aware.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(SNIFFS)

(EXHALES)

It's just a shitty thing
to say to somebody.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

LAUREN: Fill me in. What's the 411?

Obviously, we're talking about
what's happened in Byron.

Yeah.

I'm hurt.
I've got secondary hurtness.

Have you?
I think everyone does.

I'm appalled!
100%.

Just because Tristan's been so
vulnerable about how he feels...

That's what I was just saying.

My main thing at the moment is,

if we all let the whale comment go,
he will keep doing it.

Mmm.

So, once again,
we're looking at a dinner party

where Jack and Tori will
be under the microscope.

Yeah.
Yep.

They can't seem to get away
from that, huh?

Mmm.

We've got the muzzle comment,
and now we've got the whale...

Crazy!
..as icing on the cake.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What makes it the worst is,

Tristan's been confiding in Jack
and asking him for nutrition tips.

And me and Sara are like,
"That is unacceptable!"

That kills us!
(BLEEP)!

He can't keep doing
and saying the things he does,

because it's damaging to people.

I don't really give two shits
about Jack, at the end of the day.

What I care about is my friend...

..and I'm sick of acting
like it's all good.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JACK: This is us.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I feel like it's comment
after comment, blow after blow,

and tonight I wanna have a front-row
seat to the apology tour.

I want a little Gold Class ticket,
maybe some popcorn.

I'm pissed.

Like, if he doesn't just,
like, take accountability,

my plan is just, like, grabbing him
by the scruff of the neck.

If you wanna make a dog analogy,
like he keeps doing about me,

and rub his face in his piss
and say,

"We don't do that, Jack."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Still to come...
Um, I've got something for you.

..it's the most unique apology
the experiment has ever seen.

What's this?

I'll, uh, start you with this one.
It's what a man does.

Are you kidding me?
Right?

Are you kidding me?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Plus...

Tim needs to know what's going on.

..Eden's ultimatum.

So, I'm gonna give you
the opportunity now to tell Tim

what you did last weekend,
otherwise we will do it.

Wow.
What is this about?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

We will tell him
if you don't tell him, Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SARA: Um...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC BUILDS)

(LAUGHTER AND CHATTER)

(SILENCE)

WOMAN: Hi, guys!

Jack and Tori wandering in,

and that is not a warm reception
at all.

ALESSANDRA: Not at all.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

MEL: All the energy has just
been sucked out of the room.

Yeah.

Honestly, we've had three days
of drama away at this retreat.

Um, starting to turn into
a bit of a circus.

I wouldn't mind a dinner party where
people just get along, have a chat.

Hey, bud.

Yeah.
How are you, man?

Cheers, bro.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Well, I didn't get a hello.
Did you notice that?

Mmm.

Jack walked straight in to Jonno,
who's shaking hands,

whilst completely ignoring me,
and Tristan.

Like, he's a coward.

I don't want nothing.
(LAUGHS)

I don't want shit from him.

He just shits me!
He shits me to tears.

Like, he's not genuine
in anything he does or says.

He should have approached Tristan,
like, straight away.

Like, you're not actually sorry.

Hey, man.
TIM: How are you, mate?

How are you?
I'm doing well.

Jack is like a politician,
but a really shit one!

And tonight I'm not buying
what he's selling.

I'm not picking up his flier.

I'm crumpling it up
and I'm putting it in the bin.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

MAN: Hey!
(ALL CALL GREETINGS)

MEL: Ridge and Jade.

They clearly have
a lot of chemistry.

They've shown that since
they arrived in the experiment,

and that seems to still
be flourishing between them.

How are you?
Hi, bro!

Ridge and I walked in
good and strong.

The retreat was really good for us.

I feel like it gave us time
to bond with everyone

and see, like, how we were both
around other people.

So, we walked in very happy.

I met, uh...
Oh, the kid?

..Jade's daughter this morning.
How is she? Yeah?

Gorgeous, man.
Yeah, lovely!

I met her this morning, yeah, yeah.

Oh, that's big!
(ALL EXCLAIM)

That's a big deal!
That is huge!

So, this morning she was saying,
"Oh, Vee's here."

And I was like, "OK, cool."

I just wanted to see
what she wanted me to do.

If she wanted me to go,
I was always happy to,

but I was never gonna
spring that on her.

And then we sort of had
this conversation this morning.

She's like, "You can come
if you want." I'm like, "Uh, OK!"

It is a lot more than I expected
at this point for them.

They must really
be feeling connected

and like this is something
that can go somewhere, really.

Now we can move forward in terms of,
like, actually talking to her,

and seeing how she feels,
and the rest of it.

So, we shall see.

That's awesome she's done that
for you, man.

Walking into the dinner party
as a united couple,

strongest in here,

I think the last three days
really showed me that I adore Jade.

We've got more chemistry
than the periodic table.

Facts!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

WOMAN: Hello!
(CHEERING)

MEL: Michael and Stephen.

And two mates walk into a bar.

(CHEERING)

JOHN: It looks very much friend zone.

Hey!

You look gorgeous!

At the retreat,
we did take a step back,

but Stephen and I wanted to walk in
as a united couple,

but we're still taking it
a day at a time -

it's a little shaky -
and we'll see where that goes.

I got you one.
Oh, thank you.

Yeah.
Cheers.

(CHATTER)

(ALL EXCLAIM)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(GASPS)
Oh, no.

Andie.
Oh, no!

where's Richard?

What?

(ALL EXCLAIM)
WOMAN: Oh, Andie!

LUCINDA: What's happened?

He's sick.
(ALL EXCLAIM)

Thank goodness!

I wasn't gonna say,
"Thank goodness he's sick."

I'm not happy he's sick,
but thank goodness.

No, but they're OK, they're OK.

Thank god he's in hospital!
(LAUGHTER)

Rich is pretty sick.

Like, man flu.

(EXHALES)

But he's at home, on the mend.

I'm trying to look after him.

That was gold!
LUCINDA: It was!

That was fun.
Everyone was so disappointed.

You scared the life out of us!

I do hope he's OK

and I'll check on him
when I get home.

I was so worried.
I know.

I was like, "Oh, my god!"
Your faces! That was awesome.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

EDEN: I feel so bad.

Knowing that Sara
met up with her ex.

How are things with you?

We're in a great place.
Yep.

We're making big...yeah, big, big
steps in the right direction.

So, yeah, really, really good.

We can both relate so hard to Tim,
with being cheated on.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

And we both know
how morally wrong it is

and how unfair it is.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

TIM: From that night,
where I stood up for Sara,

she saw what she needed to see
from me, and...

Yeah, that was big for you.
That was good, though.

It was a big moment for us,

and you know,
I've really been seeing

what I needed to see from her
after that.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Whether she's gonna do
the smart thing -

own it and apologise it,
take full responsibility,

or she's just gonna
completely deny it...

And, like, go at me...
Yeah, yeah.

..for doing what I'm saying.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SARA: I think we both think
it's worth fighting for.

So, we're both just trying
to figure out how to do it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

JAYDEN: We are ready
to get off this roller-coaster.

I want to unstrap
from the roller-coaster.

Yep.
I'm...I've had enough.

We let it all out tonight.
We address it.

We saw what happens
and then we get to close that book.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Were you in the room when...?
(CLICKS FINGERS)

You were...I'm pretty sure you...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Hey! Oh!
(CHEERING)

(ALL CALL GREETINGS)

Whoops!
Hey.

What's happening?

EDEN: Oh, god!

I'm feeling pretty anxious
and uncomfortable,

walking in
and just trying to remain calm.

You guys look amazing!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I've been cheated on in the past,
as has Jayden,

and I had no-one tell me
when it happened to me.

So, for six months, I didn't know.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Since then, I've never spoken
to anyone that knew ever again.

Hello!

How are you?
TRISTAN: Good!

Hello.
How are you?

Good. How are you?

And I don't want anyone else
to ever have to go through that.

Hello, hello!

How you doing, my favourite?

Hi. How are you?
You guys look so good!

Thank you. You too.

Right now, I just feel really fake

to kind of play happy families
with Tim and Sara,

knowing the information that I know.

Go say hi.

(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)

How are you?
TIM: How you doing?

I don't want to have people think
that I'm a bad friend,

but then I also want Tim to know
what's going on behind his back,

because I know that if I was Tim,
I would wanna know.

What should I have? Where's Jayden?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I think Eden's out of sorts.

She's not being herself.
Exactly.

Um...

Damn!
Big dog!

How are you, bro?
Hey!

Everyone's in black, yeah.
Looking good, man!

Feeling it!
Looking schmick, yeah.

Rose?

I'll join you guys on the couch
in a sec.

Yeah, man.
Yep.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What's happening
to our loved-up perfect couple?

Mmm. Yes.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I can't protect her anymore.

Ah, ah, ah, got it.

She needs to tell Tim,
and if she doesn't, I will.

(GLASS CHIMES)

Ladies and gentlemen,
dinner is served.

SARA: Oh, is dinner served already?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Well, needless to say it's gonna be
a very interesting dinner tonight.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

WOMAN: That's me! Thank you, doll!

It seems like something's happened,

which has clearly ruffled
Eden and Jayden's feathers...

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

..and they're uncomfortable with it.

Hi! Eden, you're giving Tinkerbell.

(SARA LAUGHS)

Oh, I'm cold!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(GROANS)

JAYDEN: Anyone who knows me

knows that I'm passionately
against cheating.

Eden needs to tell Tim tonight,
because it's disgusting behaviour,

it's not acceptable,
and it is cheating.

SARA: Cheers, guys.
Cheers.

(ALL TOAST)

Cheers.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JOHN: What's going on here?

You doing alright?
Yeah, yeah, I'm OK.

You can see Jack going
directly across to Tristan.

ALESSANDRA: He's not wasting
any time.

I'm just gonna grab Timothy.

And he's going to find somebody else.

Do you mind...I just wanna have a
chat with Tris. Do you mind coming?

Yeah, yeah, I'll come.

MEL: What's going on?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Sit over there, big fella.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Coming up, Jack's unexpected
peace offering.

I know you've had a rough time,
but this is for me.

ALESSANDRA: This is his apology?

Oh, my god.

And later,
Sara's moment of truth.

SARA: Um, I...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

TRISTAN: So, like...

But...

Yeah?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Yep.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Frankly, I don't wanna hear,
"It was a joke."

No.

You know, it's not a qualifier for
saying offensive and rude comments.

Timothy's brought it back up
that night.

Tim's not the one to blame here.

Jack...

Yes.

Yeah, oh, sorry, I was just...

What?

But...

Oh, my god.

ALESSANDRA: This is his apology?

TIMOTHY: Jack -
I think he's full of shit.

If it affected you that much,

then just put a little more
emotion into it.

My job is to help people, right?

With body image issues,
self-esteem issues.

I've done it for ten years.

I've made a career out of it,
and I love it.

Yeah.
I've got something for you.

What's this?

Are you kidding me?
Right?

Are you kidding me?

A supplement...
A supplement package.

To help him not be a whale!

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JACK: And I also got you this
as well, bro.

A little keyring. I've engraved it.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

TRAVIS: "You are enough."
You are enough.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Oh, my god, get the (BLEEP) out!

Oh, my god, you are the sweetest!

That is...

That is me.

It's disgusting!

Oh, my god, Tristan's falling
for it, hook, line, and sinker,

because he needs his validation.

Because he thinks there's actually
something wrong with his body.

Well, he does now, thanks to Jack.
Well, clearly!

He got this little thing saying,
"You are more than enough,"

and then just wrote a card
for some supplements,

and I'm just sitting there going,
"What?"

Jack, you're a great dude!
I love you to bits, you know?

He's sweet. He's moved on.

I love you, man!

Yeah, I feel much better.

Just...just remember, mate,
it's all on the inside.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I'm there for you.

(MEL SIGHS)

I'll help you hit some supplements
up with that.

Yeah, we'll go together, yeah, yeah!
Absolutely.

Good, like, yeah...
I'm gonna shake your hand.

..this week has been
very emotional...

I'm here for you.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I'm not buying it.

He's trying to make himself
look better,

but Jack couldn't care less.

I don't believe his apology,

and it just stacks up
into a pile of shit, and it stinks.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Thanks, mate!

Good...good chat, buddy.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

He got me a supplements gift card

and he got me
this cool little cross!

Check this out! It's so nice!

LUCINDA: And what's that?

It's a supplement gift card.

So I can get some supplements
for weight loss and stuff.

LAUREN: Oh, my god,
what is going on?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

He's really nice.

Jack gave Tristan a card
and supplements.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Like, he's pretty much saying

there's something
not right with him.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

He's just getting away with

what behaviour
you think you can get away with.

Like, you're not actually sorry.

What did the conversation look like?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Um, I understand that
it was just a mistake that was made.

Me and Jack have had a good chat.
So, we're actually all good.

Buddy, read that...
And then he...

He got me this adorable-ass cross.

He doesn't need to read it out.

It says, "You're enough."

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Like, as if you need someone like
Jack to tell you you're enough.

I don't buy it for one second.

This is no bullshit.
I didn't sleep last night.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

That one really hit me in the heart,

and I had trouble sleeping
and I feel terrible.

And, um...I haven't been OK with it.

So, I'm gonna try and better myself
and learn from this.

He's literally going around
with his hush money,

trying to get everyone to shut up,

but unfortunately, I need more than
a couple of dollars to be quiet.

But how did it go from,

"Oh, it's just banter, it's just
banter, like, get over it, guys,"

to now it's this sincere,
deep apology

and you know what you've done wrong?

I wouldn't have said it
around Timothy...

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

He wouldn't have
said it around people.

That means he would still say it!
That's right.

Isn't that interesting,
that he's positioning that way?

He's very clinical about it.

It's calculated.
Yes.

ALESSANDRA: It's ridiculous!

I'm gonna learn from this.

Like, you make a joke, you've really
gotta watch what you're saying,

'cause you don't know
who it's gonna affect.

That's bullshit!
I don't believe a word you...

Well, that's your opinion.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I feel like there's...
like, you can't justify it, right?

But I'm not gonna hold him
to the stake for it.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What will it take for you to say
to him, like, "It's enough"?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I'm probably, like...like, halfway.

Halfway.
Halfway?

You've consistently made comments

about the way people look,
at this point.

Well, that's your opinion.
You can have it.

Do you...I really...

I said you can have your opinion.

I know what you said!

Jack's sitting there
with his nipples like this,

like this big glazed Christmas ham.

Seriously, you've got no leg
to stand on, mate!

You and your nipples
can take several seats.

Tori, open your eyes.

Please don't insult my intelligence!

We have a very functional
relationship. I'm very happy.

Tori's happy.
He knows...

We laugh every day.

I'm sure you are very happy, Jack.
You're getting everything you need.

He's getting away with everything.

Uh-huh.
Of course.

We respect each other,
we trust each other.

Oh, with the respect.
Whatever, Lauren!

Respect Tori. This is what
she's trying to say - respect her.

Well, do you know what,

I'm just so stressed and so worried
that you are...

Does she respect you or what?
I just need you to trust...

I trust you! I don't trust you.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I feel like Tori definitely
doesn't have all the facts,

and I feel like there's so much more
than I even know.

And she's gonna get (BLEEP) over,
and that just kills me,

'cause she has genuine feelings
for the dude.

I'm just over it.
I'm completely over it.

I got nothing left, so...

Cheers, guys.

JAYDEN: Cheers. They're finishing
their conversation from before.

Cheers, cheers. Oh!
Hello.

I'm vibing you two now.

You guys...man, since you
speaking up, bro, man, respect!

Nah, appreciate.
(LAUGHS)

Tim and I have made, like,
the biggest comeback.

MICHAEL: What changed? What clicked?

Mainly, we just talked about what...
what we expect from each other.

For Tim, and why we were arguing,
why it all...

..like, I guess, why we started
arguing in the first place

was 'cause I felt like
he didn't stand up for me

in the way that I wanted,

but I wasn't very clear
on what I wanted,

and he showed up, and...

LAUREN: Yes, he did!
Yeah!

And you honestly looked so happy.

Oh, I was chuffed, yeah.

He came home from the Boys Night
and wanted to check up on me,

and that he was venting
to a few people...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

EDEN: I feel sick,
watching Tim and Sara.

It's making me feel really stressed
and really uncomfortable.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Sara looked at me at one point
and said,

"I just want to go to the bedroom."

(LAUGHTER)

EDEN: Tim thinks
that he can trust Sara,

but it's actually a lie.

We pretty much have to get really
married now, or else we're done.

(LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

EDEN: I don't think I can handle
watching it anymore.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

If I don't say something,
then I could lose Jayden,

because he feels really strongly
against cheating.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I don't wanna make an enemy,

but I'm not willing
to sacrifice my relationship

in order to save my friendship
with Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

It's 'Bold And The Beautiful'!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Tonight I wanna stand by
what's right.

Tim needs to know what's going on.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SARA: Hi! What?
TIM: What's up?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What's going on?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I feel like Jayden and I have been
arguing and tiffing

for, like, a whole week now.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

It's not, um...it's frustrating,

because what we're arguing over,

we both morally agree
on the same thing.

Um, but last weekend,
we were texting,

and Jayden saw a message
on my phone...

Yeah.
..from you.

And I'm not willing to protect you
over losing Jayden.

Wow.
What is this about?

So, I'm gonna give you
the opportunity now

to tell Tim
what you did last weekend,

or otherwise we will do it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Ooooh.
Ooh!

He's seen the messages.

We will tell him
if you don't tell him, Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

EDEN: I'm gonna give you
the opportunity now

to tell Tim
what you did last weekend,

otherwise we will do it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

'Cause I'm not protecting you
anymore.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

OK.

So, if you wanna tell Tim now,
otherwise we will do it.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Well, I ran into my ex.

Ran...be honest.
JAYDEN: Let's be honest here.

He's seen the messages.

We will tell him
if you don't tell him, Sara.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Yeah, I...I met up with my ex.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

He was here from Perth.

Um, and he messaged me,

and...yeah, we met up.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What do you mean by "met up"?

It was a planned, premeditated date?

No, not a date!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

If it wasn't a date,
how come you were texting Eden,

asking for some nice clothes
to go out at night with him?

I was...seriously,
it was not a date.

It was not a date.
Sara, he's seen the messages.

And I'm not lying for you anymore.
I'm not.

It wasn't a date!
It wasn't a date, Eden.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Just spill...what happened?
Spill the beans. Start telling.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Well, I saw the message, and it was,

"Hey, I'm going to meet up with
my ex-boyfriend. He's in town."

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Shh. There was a shh emoji.

She didn't want us to say anything.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

My question is, you're in
an experiment, you're married to Tim.

Why are you going out with
your ex-boyfriend behind his back

and you don't want anyone else
to say anything?

So...OK. So, my ex and I
are actually still friends.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Poor Tim right now.

I've told Tim I'm friends
with all of my exes...

You didn't tell him that you were
going for dinner with him.

JOHN: I mean, Tim is physically
in the room,

but emotionally, he's checked out.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

No, it wasn't dinner!
It wasn't dinner!

Whatever it was,
you didn't tell Tim...

It was not dinner!
It doesn't matter.

I know it doesn't matter what it
was, but I'm just trying to clarify.

It wasn't a date
and it wasn't just the two of us.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

(ECHOES) I did not tell him that
I was hanging out with my ex.

(ECHOES) What did you tell him?

(ECHOES) I told him
I had a friend's birthday.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I knew you were gonna cancel
our date again,

for the third week in a row.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

(ECHOES) Are you gonna say sorry?

(ECHOES) I know that it was wrong.
I know that.

"You must reveal your latest
correspondence on your phone."

I haven't given you a reason not
to trust me, so what's the point?

(ECHOES) Things like that
have happened to me before,

and no-one's told me, and
I've walked around like an idiot.

(ECHOES) I get it.

(ECHOES) And I do not want that
to happen to Tim,

and I was trying to make Jayden...
(VOICE FADES)

I know what it's like
to not be over an ex.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(ECHOES) Honestly, I feel like
it was eating away at me, it was...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

That's some bullshit!
Tim!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Come on!
EDEN: That is bullshit, Sara.

That's literally bullshit.

You've been walking around with
a smile on your face the whole time.

She's just lying.

You told me that whole...
the whole thing about your note

was how (BLEEP)
you were treated by your ex.

Yes, but I still told you...
You know, how badly he treated you.

But I told you that
I'm still friends with him,

and I did tell that to you.

Did she tell you that they still
talk, or is that a load of shit?

No, I asked you if you still talked
to him and you said you don't.

There we go.

You said that,
"We have the same friends,

"so we might bump into each other
here and there."

But you didn't say
you still talk to him.

Yeah, so, I was out with a few of my
friends and a few of his friends,

and he was in town, so he was there.

How's she gonna do this?

'Cause she's completely in the wrong,
but can she apologise?

EDEN: We'll leave you guys to it.
JAYDEN: Yeah, it's...it's...

Let's go. Leave...
you guys can figure it out.

When we sat on the couch

and I first gave her the opportunity
to tell Tim herself,

she was telling little white lies
around the truth.

There's no chance
she would have admitted that

if I didn't bring it out.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I think you guys need a one-on-one.
It is what it is.

'Cause, Tim, I wouldn't be
taking that, man.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I can see right through Sara,
especially knowing what's going on.

She's telling everyone
she's had a breakthrough.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

She's fake, and she's not here
for the right reasons.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Look...

You don't want to hear it?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Oh, Tim.
He does not deserve this.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I don't know what else to say.

"I'm sorry!"
"I'm sorry" with feeling.

You can start by being apologetic!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Like, nothing happened,
but I did hang out with him, yes.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Well, it's a betrayal.

Deceit, and look at Tim's face.

He doesn't even know
where he stands with her now.

Oh, my god, what the (BLEEP)?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Are you good, Tim?

Nah.

(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Look...

You don't wanna hear it?

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

I don't know what else to say.

Like, nothing happened.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Are you good, Tim?

Oh! Nah.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

(EXHALES AND SNIFFS)

(EXHALES)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Nah. I'm not OK.

(SNIFFS)

I feel lied to.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Strung along.

I just feel heartbroken.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Played the fool.

I feel like I tried so hard

to, like, meet her needs
and expectations,

and she was just...
it was never enough for her.

Can I please have a glass of wine?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

And now it's pretty obvious why.

Like, bailing on the dates.

She's lied to me about
where she was on the weekend.

Just the signs are so obvious.

She was cheating on me,

and I guess the truth kind of
always comes out, doesn't it?

(CHATTER)

LAUREN: Jayden, what happened?!
Do you wanna talk?

What's wrong?
Just...let's...

The weekend before we went to
retreat, me and Sara were texting.

She asked me to borrow an outfit,

and Jayden was sitting with me

and he saw the message from her
that said, "I'm going to see my ex."

Oh, my god!
WOMAN: Disgusting!

Oh, babe!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I don't know what she did
when she was with him,

but I was put
in the shittest position,

a lose-lose situation.

I either lose a friend
or I lose my partner.

Like, what am I supposed to do?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SARA: Um, look,
I didn't cheat on the guy.

I wasn't doing anything
that was remotely that terrible,

however, I know that the group
will make it a big deal

when it really isn't.

It's so hot in here.

OK. Yes, I went out with my ex
on the weekend.

We had a few drinks together.

Yes, I did ask Eden
for something to wear.

Yes, I wanted to look good
for my ex.

He's dating someone. He's been
dating someone for six years.

So are you.

Sorry?

So are you.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I know that, but I didn't do
anything with my ex!

All I did was have drinks!
(ALL EXCLAIM)

What we're actually seeing here
is Sara's fight style,

which is, when you bring an issue up,

she gets defensive
and quite combative.

She wrote shush.
Why did you tell me to shh?

Because I...like,
I didn't wanna tell Tim that

because I didn't want him
to get insecure.

MEL: Oh, Sara.

Because he'll feel insecure,
as if it's his fault.

What do you mean 'shush', Eden?

She texted Eden, saying,
"I'm going out with my ex. Shh!"

OK.

That...that's what it was!

There's no excuse.

Tim has had issues with his ex
cheating on him

and I didn't want him
to think anything of it.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

So, you're doing it behind his back.

I think I...no...no!

Now she's thinking about how she's
gonna find her way out of this.

Yes, how does she manoeuvre her way
out of this situation?

Look, I haven't had a relationship
in years,

so I haven't had to deal with
telling a partner certain things.

Doesn't seem so innocent.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

She has not apologised,
she has not acknowledged.

JOHN: Sara actually doesn't know
what to do here.

Do you not think that
doing this behind his back

is only gonna make
his insecurities worse?

Yes, yes, yes!

So, why not just be open
and up front with him?

Yes, OK! Look, look...

You should have been.

Does anyone here, anyone at all,

agree with Sara going behind Tim's
back and hanging out with the ex?

Anyone?
It doesn't matter, though!

Like, he has a girlfriend!

I think...I didn't cheat on Tim!

I didn't do anything with my ex!
I didn't cheat!

You hid it.
The hiding is the problem.

Yes.
Yeah.

JAYDEN: Sara, is this part
of the reason

why you didn't wanna do the phone
challenge in Confessions Week -

'cause you have stuff on there,
like this?

No...no!

I...I'm wrong. I know I'm wrong.

Now all the puzzle pieces
are coming together.

This is the whole reason why she
didn't wanna do the phone challenge.

Why did you request
the whole weekend off

when you knew your ex
would be here in town?

SARA: I actually had a few things
to do on the weekend.

Friday night,
I actually told my friend

that I would puppy-sit
for her overnight,

'cause she was going...like...

You literally wrote to me,
and Jayden has seen it,

"I have lied to Tim and I've told
him that I'm puppy-sitting."

(ALL GASP AND EXCLAIM)

(GASPS)

Sara, tell the truth.

Are you kidding?

We've got the messages to prove it.
I've got the messages, Sara.

I've seen all of it.
He's seen them.

We'll go and get the messages now.
(HUBBUB)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Why did you request
the whole weekend off

when you knew your ex
would be here in town?

SARA: Well, I actually had
a few things to do on the weekend.

Friday night,
I actually told my friend

that I would puppy-sit for her
overnight,

'cause she was going...like...

You literally wrote to me,
and Jayden has seen it,

"I have lied to Tim and
I've told him I'm puppy-sitting."

(ALL GASP AND EXCLAIM)

JAYDEN: Here we go.
We've got the messages to prove it.

I've got the messages, Sara.
I've seen all of it.

He's seen them.
(HUBBUB)

We'll go and get the messages now!

She lied to Tim
and betrayed his trust,

and it's not good enough.

He deserves better.

No!

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

That lady has been playing Tim
like a fool.

Lying is her second language.

She is just fake.

ANDREA: Sara, you should write
'leave', you should write 'leave'.

Just bullshit.

Like, we're all here, and we're
trying to work on our relationships.

Like, piss off.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

SARA: I wanna go home.

I can't even believe that.

I did nothing with my ex!
I had drinks with him!

Oh, my god, everyone... (SIGHS)

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

TIM: I mean, I feel...
I'm disappointed.

Like, she's obviously
still into this guy,

and she's...you know,
she's played me for the fool.

Like, I feel like an idiot,
going along with her crap.

I'm shitting my pants,

because, like, I know that that's
gonna look like shit to everybody,

and Andrea just told me
I should write 'leave'.

JAYDEN: I'm sorry, man.
It's not on, man.

EDEN: I just wanna give Tim a hug.

Tim, can I just have a hug?
I'm sorry.

Thank you.
I'm sorry. I hope you're OK.

Nah, yeah...
I'm actually very sorry.

..I'm not OK, but thank you.
I know, I know.

It just feels like all...
this whole time

has just been smoke and mirrors,
you know?

Waste of time.

I've been led on.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JAYDEN: So, how about we have
a bit of civilisation in here

and actually let the man
speak for himself?

LUCINDA: Yeah, no yelling, please.
Yeah.

Literally, for, like, the first time
in this whole experiment,

I've actually been like...
I can actually see a future,

and now it's just gone to shit!

I...I feel like
I've just broken Tim!

MAN: Go for it, brother.

I don't know, whatever Sara's
talking in here is some bullshit.

There's so many things.

Like, she cancelled three dates
in a row.

I didn't see her Friday, Saturday,
or Sunday.

God!

She didn't wanna go through her
phone with the phone challenge task.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

She told me how she doesn't
speak to her ex.

You know, and she's been cold to me
from day one,

treating me like rubbish.

She's just playing me for a fool.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Obviously I should have
(BLEEP) said to him

that I was going out with him!

Where is Tim?

That guy, they broke up,

but she told me she slept with her
ex a month before the experiment.

What? Sorry?

(GROANS)

Oh, my gosh, Sara.
Her history is shady.

Her actions are shady.

She says she cares about Tim.
She doesn't.

She cares about one person only,
and that is herself.

So, she's obviously OK
with cheating,

which is why she's done that to you.

Exactly. She's fine with it.

MICHAEL: Yeah!

Sara went out of her way
to keep it a secret.

I don't agree with it.
I would never be OK with it.

And, like, we're not a week in.

Those couples
are six, seven weeks in.

She should know what she wants
at this point,

and if she wants to meet up
with her ex,

don't drag Tim along
and don't keep writing 'stay'

and telling Tim you guys are good.

Like, this is the other thing.
Yeah, with your partner.

If your partner's not there,

you're not going out
and looking good for your ex!

What's the point in that?

No, she didn't...
she didn't just hang out with him.

There's no...no doubt in my mind.

There's no way!
She's not just hanging out with him.

It's pretty obvious
Sara's still got feelings for him

and she's still sleeping with him.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I'm shook, honestly.

Hope you're OK.

Yeah, I'm definitely not OK, but...

Let us know if you need anything
at all, honestly.

You can hang out with us
all weekend. I don't mind.

Yeah, appreciate it.

There is no excuse
for what she's done. None.

Tim, come and have a chat to Sara.

Why do I have to go chat to her?

Stand your ground, Tim.

Exactly.

Considering Sara did the cheating...

TRISTAN: Sara's here.
MAN: She's here, Lauren.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

OK.

I'm explaining what happened,
and, please, nobody interrupt me.

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Yes, I lied to Tim.

I lied.
(EXHALES)

I didn't wanna tell him
that I was gonna be with my ex.

Yeah, wonder why.

Um, nothing happened.
I came home at midnight.

Um, and then that was
pretty much it, like...

Like, I don't, personally, buy it.
I don't buy it.

And no-one at this table does.

OK.

Like, you know...
Alright, well...

..well, you asked
for the whole weekend off.

All I can do is own it.
See him Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I mean, you knew that...
this was all premeditated.

You knew he was coming. You were
planning this whole weekend.

Whatever she says,

in my mind, I'm like, "She..." it's
just, like, "She's just...a liar."

(SOMBRE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

If Eden didn't raise this issue,
would you have ever told Tim?

Of course not.

I feel like he would have
gotten angry at me for it.

Cop out.

I'm glad that Tim doesn't buy this.
Yeah.

I didn't tell Tim
that I was going out with my ex

because I didn't want him to feel
insecure about the situation.

No! It's not about his insecurity.
It's about your honesty.

If we hadn't've spoken up
and said something,

you wouldn't have told Tim.

It sounds like, to me,
you're only sorry you got caught.

No, exactly. I agree, for sure.
1,000%.

What do you mean?

You're only sorry that you got
caught. You're not actually sorry.

You didn't even console me in there.
You didn't even touch me.

You didn't even look at me...
Hold on! Hold on! You walked out!

No...

She didn't wanna see if I'm OK.

She wanted to defend herself.

She wanted to defend her position

and try and make it seem like
what she did was OK.

She didn't look at me.

She didn't come to me
and try apologise to me at all.

STEPHEN: Can I ask a question?

Did you have sex with your ex

a month before this experiment
started?

A month before the experi...
a month before it started.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Just...

Um...

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Did you have sex with your ex

a month before this experiment
started?

A month before the experi...
a month before it started.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I...um...

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

..yes.

(ALL GASP AND EXCLAIM)

WOMAN: So, that's even worse, Sara!

You're sleeping with him,
even though he has a girlfriend?

No, no, no, wait, sorry.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Your ex has a partner, yes?

No, no, they...no, he had...
they just broke up.

(GASPS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

MEL: She's getting caught out.

Wow, yeah! They just broke up.

Very convenient.

That's a lie!

Sara, you said to us all just before
that he has a girlfriend.

Yes. Yes.
That's right.

And now they're broken up?

They're...they're still together,
but they are on-and-off again.

No, it's lies.

That is a lie!

MAN: Tell the truth!

JOHN: This narrative,
it's gone from bad to worse.

Her lies are becoming unravelled.
Terrible in front of the group.

(QUIET INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Look, I really like Sara.

I do feel for her.

You know, her world would be
collapsing right now, no doubt,

but we've all gotta be honest.

She needs to be humble
and genuinely apologise.

So, you've been OK with adultery
for...how long was that?

I did sleep with my ex
while he had a partner!

Yes, I did!
This is this guy?

This is this guy, yes.

It's just questionable morals.
MAN: It is.

It's a question
of ethics and morals.

Exactly! Ethics and morals.

But I...I didn't cheat on Tim.

JAYDEN: Cheating
is not just physical.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Hiding the fact that you're meeting
up with and texting your ex,

that is considered cheating,
right, everyone?

MAN: Correct.
There we go.

So, you have, essentially,
cheated on Tim.

I have never, ever cheated
on a partner

and I can (BLEEP) attest to that!

MEL: Oh, no.

Now she's getting aggressive,
being combative.

She's the one here
that's been found out.

Have you ever cheated on a partner?

Are you calling me out right now?

No, but have you ever
cheated on a partner?

Tell me off.
Hear what she did!

You said it's questioning my morals!

You just cheated on me
just on the weekend!

OK, guys, can I just say,

you guys are questioning my morals
and my character,

but how many of you at this (BLEEP)
table have cheated on a partner?!

Raise your (BLEEP) hand!

LUCINDA: Never. Zero, nada. Never.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

JOHN: None of it
is sinking in for her.

ALESSANDRA: None of it.

She doesn't see that she's cheated
and betrayed Tim.

She doesn't understand
the group's reaction to her,

and it just makes her
more and more indignant.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

TIM: She just runs when it gets hot.

She's happy to just call anyone out,
point the finger,

and if she's done the wrong...

..she's been doing the wrong thing
this whole time - obviously.

I've really tried.

I've been open-minded, I've been
compassionate, I've been patient,

because I really do like her.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

But if Sara actually respected me,

if she actually
had any remorse at all,

she would have come to me
and apologised,

but she didn't.

She just left.

My emotions don't matter to Sara.

My feelings don't matter to Sara.

It's, like, the biggest
hypocritical moment, you know?

She, like...
things get hot for her.

She leaves.
She can't handle the heat.

I need to go now!
I need to go now!

I wanna leave now!

WOMAN: Are you alright, Tim?

No, just...just...defeated,
you know.

I wanna leave now!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

I don't know if I can trust her
again.

I feel like a fool.

VOICEOVER: Sunday...

She played me for a fool.
(VOICE ECHOES)

The trust has been broken.

..is...

I was... I was really hurt.

..the fallout...

There's nowhere to run,
nowhere to hide.

Sara, you've been exposed.

I'm going to do everything
in my power to make Tim my priority.

I want to be respected.

Sorry, can I just finish
what I was saying?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Now I don't know where I was at.

..when love...

I was like, oh, I'm falling in love
with you.

..faces the fire.

Cassandra, you look a little bit
uncomfortable.

Um...

(SIGHS)

No bad deed....

You said that they looked like...

..will go...

Do you trust Jack?

Do you trust me?

..unpunished.

Everything cracks...

Oh, the love!
Yeah.

Sort of had a bit of a breakdown.

A breakthrough.
A breakthrough.

..wide...

What kind of relationship
do you have with your ex?

It's a friendship.

..open.

Friends don't get naked and (BLEEP)

This is must see...

You should know better.

I don't care what everybody thinks.

Like, I do not give a...
