Previously

on Farmer Wants A Wife...

I've got a little surprise for ya.

I feel like a bloody lucky farmer.

Feels like there's something

between us very special.

From the moment

I stepped foot on the farm,

it's really just felt like home.

Farmer Dean found true love.

Teegan, I've fallen in love with you.

You're gonna make me cry.

The farmer has found a wife.

And our remaining farmers hope to do the same,

with a little help from mum.

Your mother has chosen two incredible women...

Hi!

..who they think would be an excellent match for you.

What? Yeah.

No!

Hi, Brooke, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.

It's comfy. It's nice.

I just felt a connection straight away.

I am in trouble.

And while some felt at home...

Oh, hi.

Trying to stay positive, but mum knows best.

..for others, the reality of farm life...

It's a bit smelly. ..was too much.

The farm life isn't going to be for me.

Bye.

..it's the annual Farmer

Wants A Wife Country Ball.

Many great love stories begin on a dance floor.

Who's ready to party?

(CHEERS)

With solo dates up for grabs...

A connection between me and Belle has formed fairly quick.

We have a really good vibe,

and so, yeah, I'm feeling good about Dustin.

The competition heats up.

It's been hard, but I'm not one to give up.

And before the last dance...

one lady will leave.

The easy rhythm of country morning is settling our farmer's new ladies

into life on the farm.

Good morning! Good morning!

And now more than ever,

it's vital to make meaningful connections.

Everyone must put their best foot forward

and hope to ignite a spark of love.

On Bert's farm, there's not one but two new ladies...

Good morning. Morning!

..and everyone's not quite comfortable.

How is everyone? Good.

Good.

Squeeze in here, maybe.

Bert brought two new girls home back to the farm.

How's your first night?

Yeah, good. Yeah, it was good.

I feel like it's just gonna extend

the process of it all.

Like, we're starting over again

and, like, personally, I don't really sort of see

the girls as a threat.

Like, I don't see him sort of ending up with them.

How's your tea? Delightful, thank you.

Just as well. Karli made it.

Made to perfection.

Made with love.

I see the bigger picture.

Like I'm here for one reason

and that's to hopefully find true love

and I won't let the two new girls get in my way.

At Dustin's farm, new lady Belle is taking farm work in her stride,

leaving Izzy feeling like she's at the back of the pack.

Having Belle come in and shake things up

was a really hard situation for all of us.

Belle and Dustin

definitely have something that

they just find each other

being drawn to one another.

I wish they, like, actually did what you wanted them to.

(LAUGHS)

Yeah, well, they are sheep.

(SHEEP BLEATS)

It's definitely hard to compete with that sort of energy

that the two of them have between each other.

It's just like, "Hi, I'm here too."

I've been here since the beginning and just been waiting around.

And I still haven't had a date.

I sort of took the lead a little bit earlier on

in taking Dustin out on a secret date myself,

because I felt like I hadn't had enough time with him.

I am having a great time here. Yeah.

And I definitely feel something.

I mean, like, I think there is something there.

I do want to find love.

I think I sometimes put it on the back burner

because it's just not happening.

And being here,

it's shown me that it's something that I really do want to fight for.

I could definitely see myself falling for Dustin,

and I think it feels really necessary for me

to talk to Dustin tonight

and sort of let all that out and say what I'm really feeling.

While most farms are welcoming new ladies,

Tom's mum's pick came and left the next day.

My mother's choice didn't turn out too crash hot,

you know, like, she's already gone.

But at the same time, like, I've got three girls here

that I really like and kind of see something with all of them.

So, yeah, kind of got to focus on that.

Do you want to go? Sure.

Go, Sarah.

I have done this before, ladies, I will say.

Oh, you're stretching.

Oh, he's farting in my face. Nice, thanks, Pinky.

For Sarah, it's an opportunity to step up

in hopes of strengthening her connection.

I would say initially,

at the start,

I was potentially holding back with Farmer Tom.

I'm very reserved when it comes to dating.

I have practically been single my whole life.

I've only ever been on one date.

I'm very, very new to this whole thing,

but I do really like Farmer Tom.

And I definitely need to take more opportunities with Farmer Tom

and make those opportunities for myself

and not be afraid and gain a bit more confidence.

I do really like it here. Yeah.

I do really want to stay and, yeah.

No, it's good here, and I like having you here.

I like being here. That's good.

Thanks for having me.

You're welcome anytime. Thanks.

Compared to the other girls,

you know, we haven't had a lot of time.

Yeah, I know, yeah.

So, we probably don't know each other as well.

So, yeah, I just...

We'll change that. We'll change that?

Yep. OK. That's good to know.

Finally.

I know. It is a bit like that. Who knows?

I did feel quite relaxed with Sarah in that moment, you know.

We just chat very easily,

so, every time we're kind of together,

it's just very natural and there's...

You know, it just feels very easy.

Good chat. Thank you.

Thanks. Head off?

Yeah, we'll head back. Head back.

Get you trimming them.

Make sure my trimming skills are good.

Yeah. Check up on his welfare. Yeah.

On Joe's property,

the extreme elements are always front and centre.

Stood in the wrong spot. Oh, my gosh.

Ow, ow, ow. But it's a shock for new lady Susie.

Maybe just wait for the wind to pass for a sec.

Not the hat!

It'd bloody blow the milk out of your tea out here today.

Snowy Mountains,

talk about blowy mountains.

It certainly wasn't hard farm work,

but, you know, I'd prefer to be out of the wind

and not with hay everywhere.

I definitely feel a little overwhelmed

that Farmer Joe and Susie have formed a deeper connection,

'cause like for me, they're so similar.

It's like a cut out female version of Joe,

which makes it harder for me to see

where I fit in his world

and where do I fit

into this experience

and how to go about it because I'm not gonna change myself.

So, yeah, it's just... It's gonna be harder.

(COW MOOS)

Do you want to go for a chat? Yeah.

Yeah? Lovely.

Just so I can get out of hard work, you know.

Me and Susie, we just get along so well

and so comfortable straight off the bat that...

Yeah, you know, there's nothing awkward.

Ah! (LAUGHS)

It's alright, I gotcha. You got me.

I got ya. Thank you, I appreciate that.

How you doing? I had a great day yesterday.

Yeah.

Definitely on this date, I was hoping to...

you know, get a bit more of that...

Spark? Spark that was there.

Yeah. Think we got that?

I think we got it, yeah. Just wanna check?

Just double check.

I don't know how else to explain it.

It's very natural, very easy-going

and, you know, it's that flirty,

a bit sexy vibes there

and, yeah, we're struggling to keep our eyes off each other.

I've made connections which I really like

and now I've got another one which has,

you know, sent me in a bit of a scrambling,

sort of, a floundering, sort of, a way.

I think it's a good thing

but it's also made my life a lot harder.

(SHEEP BLEATS)

Anticipation is building on the farms...

because it's time for the event everyone has been waiting for.

# Y'all think that I'm worth it

# Well, I think That I'm hard to beat... #

I'm gonna the country ball, I'm so excited.

I'm ready to get dressed up,

you know, put my little pretty dress on

and have a dance.

I've been to many balls, but not a country one,

so, I feel like I'm in for a surprise once again.

This whole experience is always surprising me.

Country ball! Yee-haw!

I'm probably more excited than the girls for the country ball,

to be honest.

Excited for getting out, you know, off the farm,

having some fun.

Thank you so much! Didn't plan that one.

Did you get the dog shit out of the back yet?

Yeah, you know, not quite.

I was looking forward to seeing the other girls

and connecting with Bert as much as I can

and really, you know, laying everything on the line

and putting my foot forward first to stand my ground.

Coming up...

I think with Joe,

there's definitely, like,

that physical attraction.

..everyone comes together.

I met Susie and, yeah,

we just have a real same sense of humour and, yeah, real instant.

At the country ball,

the new ladies are making their moves.

I definitely think there's something between you and me.

Yeah, exactly the same. Sparks fly, but heartbreak follows.

The farm is an extension of me.

And that won't change about me at all.

It'll be nice to see the other girls.

Yeah, so excited.

Before everyone heads

to the country ball...

How you going fellas?

Good, how are you?

Gidday, mate.

..the farmers and ladies

are getting together

for a much-needed catch up.

To the best farm.

Cheers to being here.

Yeah, the best farm.

Gidday there, fellas.

Hello!

How you going?

(OVERLAPPED SPEECH)

It's always good to see

a group of us.

Fair new faces on the other girls' farms.

Hey, I'm Belle. Belle, nice to meet you.

Lovely to meet you. I love your dress.

How are you, mate?

You know, I'm actually stoked to be seeing the lads again.

I spend a lot of time with some great women,

don't get me wrong,

but it's about time I had a bit of lad time.

We've got two more newbies.

It'll be good to get to catch up

and see what's happening

on their farms and see

how they're going with the new girls.

Hello, how are you going? How are you going?

High quality prawns here for you.

Give it a go.

At least we get a feed of them if we can't catch none.

You're braver than me if you'll eat that.

Yeah, mum's choice. How did it go for you, fellas?

Yeah, nah, she's...

Yeah, no, did good. It wasn't too bad, actually.

I was, well...

Mum's usually got pretty good taste, I thought.

You know, being Belle home.

She was pretty easy going

and sort of has the same sort of ideas as me

and wants to live out in the bush, so, it's always good.

How are you feeling?

I've been enjoying it.

I think it's been really good so far.

And I'm like...

Yeah, I have a good vibe with Dustin at the moment.

Yeah, I think my connection with Dustin

is getting stronger each day.

So, you're not worried about the other girls'

connection at this stage?

I think I'm OK at the moment. That's great!

Take each day as it comes, I think.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. So, far so good.

I mean, I'm starting to really like him.

And getting to know him

is feeling a little bit more relaxed,

a little more comfortable.

Cheers, guys! Girls are on!

Cheers.

How about you, Bert?

You're not saying too much, are you?

It's been a busy week at my joint, that's for sure.

Yeah, mum set me up with a couple of lovely ladies.

Brooke and Taneil are both great.

Yeah, Lauren, one of the original girls,

said she was... Yeah, she was going home.

So, lost one in there and gained two and...

you know, Taneil and Brooke are both,

you know, lovely ladies, and very attractive and smart.

You know, independent women that...

Yeah, definitely ticks those boxes.

The two new, like, you know, mum's choices

have come into the farm,

but I just feel like...

I'm not too overly worried about the two new girls.

That must be nice.

Because, like, I don't want to sound vain or anything,

but they're probably a little bit intimidated

because we've already,

you know, created connections with Bert.

Like, I'd like to have the solo,

like, the next solo date with him

just to really, you know, cement the feelings.

Because you haven't had it. No.

Especially if you haven't had one yet.

Yeah, for sure.

I think it'd be a good idea to check in

and put your best foot forward at this point.

Yeah. Definitely.

Yeah.

I do believe I'm a strong contender for the next date.

But I think I have done my time.

It's... yeah,

I think it's my time to have some time with him.

Bert is yet to find out what he is missing.

Mum do anyone dirty?

Yeah, my mum stitched me up a bit, eh?

(LAUGHTER)

No, look, like, she was actually a very nice girl,

but, yeah, just kind of decided the farm wasn't for her.

And, you know, just, yeah, she went home the next morning, so.

Yeah, right. Yeah.

How did you go, Joey?

Actually real good, yeah.

Well, I met Susie and it was straight away

just great chemistry and good match.

And I was like, bloody mum's looking after me.

And you know, beautiful girl.

And, yeah, we just have a real same sense of humour,

and, yeah, real instant, sort of, thing.

Yeah, right.

Would have been alright just to, yeah,

if we could have kept it going, to be honest.

I'm pretty confident in my connection

with Joe at the moment.

Like, it can change at any moment as we know.

Yeah, of course, yeah.

But Susie has some chemistry with Joe as well,

they're very similar people,

very similar humour and things like that.

The girls say that she's a girl version of him,

like they're that similar.

Joe is trying to distribute his time,

you know, between everybody.

But I can definitely see there is something there

between Joe and Susie,

so, his attention is very much on her,

and I feel like Susie is a threat.

How are you going?

I think with Joe,

there's definitely like that physical attraction

that, like, hit me on our date.

I mean, he's lovely.

I really noticed in myself, leaving the farm on the way

to come here today...

just had some big feelings to process

and that time to sit in a car

and think, really sort of gave me some clarity around a few things.

And I think that I really would love to have an opportunity

to have a conversation with Joe about how I'm feeling.

Next...

Just felt like it was just us

two in that barn.

So, it felt really, really,

really special.

..connections grow on the dance floor.

We're both very attracted to each other

and she's the kind of person

that I could see myself falling in love with.

And the pressure for alone time builds.

If you don't get the single date, what do you do next?

Dressed to the nines

and ready to party,

it's the annual Farmer Wants A Wife

Country Ball.

We're off to the bar?

Yeah.

How's it going?

Good.

Can we just grab four stubbies,

please?

Perfect. Thank you.

Everyone's looking sharp as.

Yeah, they're cute, hey? Cheers, mate.

(WHISTLES)

Cheers.

Good on ya, cob.

Are we pulling up some stump, or...

Yeah, might as well. Take a load off.

You've been picking pineapples flat out.

Who's got a full dance card tonight?

Surely Berto's got something. Nah, mate, I've got concrete hips.

(LAUGHTER)

That's about where my talent ends is the conga line.

Here we go, boys.

(GROOVY MUSIC)

Hey, how's it going?

Hey, looking good.

Everyone looks lovely.

Hello.

My ladies always look amazing,

so yeah, definitely a very lucky man.

Hi. Hello there.

Yeah, you guys all look gorgeous.

Tonight, I would like to pull Bert aside

to have a little bit of a chat,

and hopefully persuade him to take me on the next date.

I think it's my time to have some time with him.

Good to see ya.

They're all bloody gorgeous today.

Just keen to have a good night with the girls,

and get to know them a bit better,

and have a bit of fun, and yeah, see what happens.

Did you do this? Yeah, no, I lit this here earlier.

Got it going.

I'm definitely hoping for me and Farmer Joe to really,

like, enjoy it and see how we are at events,

like going out, dancing, and, yeah, just bonding on that.

Cheers! To everyone looking schmicko.

Yeah!

Farmer Tom looks really, really, really good.

Yeah, he looks so good in a suit.

I was a bit speechless actually.

Hello, everyone!

Hi! Hi!

Come and join me over here. So, bright!

Welcome.

Welcome everyone to the annual Farmer Wants A Wife Country Ball.

(CHEERS)

You all look amazing. You are dressed to the nines.

Farmers, you're all looking very smiley.

You in particular, Farmer Joe. What have you got to smile about?

Why wouldn't I be,

surrounded by beautiful ladies and a country ball?

And, you know, I'm gonna really step into this.

It's gonna be my element, I reckon.

Good. Good man.

Now, I'd like to officially welcome the new ladies in the group,

who were all given the tick of approval by your mums.

What an advantage that is, ladies.

How are you all settling in?

Oh, well, it's cold.

It's cold? Yeah.

On the Monaro? Oh, yes.

Did we not warn you? Pack a jumper?

I wasn't quite ready.

Now, Brooke.

You were welcomed to Bert's farm. How are you going?

Yeah, I'm going good. It's been a great experience so far.

I got to hang out with the girls, so that's been fun.

Yes. Yeah.

And have you been hanging out with Bert?

Oh, a little bit here and there.

Hopefully a little bit more soon.

Bert, you hear that?

(LAUGHTER)

OK, I hear it and I'm trying.

Bert, I think you should ask her to dance tonight.

Yeah, we're working. We're working.

Dustin, I think you could dance. Oh, no.

You're mistaken.

You don't have to be good. Oh!

Just dance like no one's watching tonight.

We'll see, we'll see.

Well, I'm sure you've all noticed by now that we are missing a farmer.

The most cheeky and chatty, Farmer Dean.

Now Dean and his ladies won't be joining us here tonight

because Dean and Teegan are madly in love...

I knew it. Knew it.

..and they have begun their exciting journey together

as a very happy couple.

I'm really happy for Deano. He feels he's met the one in Teegan.

You know, that's something inspirational for sure.

Now, everyone, I hope that this news

about Deano sparks your confidence.

And you know that you're all here to find love.

Now, I know you can't wait to hit the dance floor,

but before the night kicks off, remember...

at the end of the night,

the farmers will choose one lady

to join them this week on a romantic solo date,

and connect without any interruptions.

I definitely really want this date with Dustin

because I need that reassurance,

I need that connection to grow.

Maybe if I wait too much longer it's gonna fizzle out.

Now, who's ready to have some fun?

(CHEERS)

Head inside because many great love stories

begin on a dance floor.

Have fun!

(BACKGROUND SONG)

I'm so excited to go.

Anyone know where we're heading?

Hey, I'm Brittany Maggs and this is my amazing band.

I'm so excited to be here with you all tonight for the Country Ball.

Let's party!

(CHEERS)

(GROOVY MUSIC)

# Ladies got the boots To meet you out back

# Leave him in home with his sixpack

# Don't know where we're going

# Or when we'll be back, Oh, whoa... #

Susie and I are just straight away pinging off each other.

We get really good vibes from each other,

and we're both very attracted to each other,

and everything's like pretty full on, actually.

I don't know how to navigate that.

# ..add a little country to it

# Show them how good you Can look while you do it

# Damn it feels right, So come and just sing along

# 'Cause girl You can't fight a country song... #

In the last few years, I didn't really want to rush back

into a serious relationship.

But, you know, meeting someone like Susie she, like,

came in with a bang,

so, I'm excited to see where this leads.

# ..a country song. #

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

As the party kicks on in the barn,

Karli is the first to steal Farmer Bert

for a private chat.

Tonight I would like

to have a chat with Bert.

Put my word in about the next solo date.

It's really important for us to have one-on-one time

without any sort of interruptions.

So, how are you going? Good, how are you?

Yeah, not too bad.

How are you going with your new girls now?

It's been hard,

but I just want you to know, like, I'm not...

Yeah, I'm not gonna leave on you.

You know, I'm not one to give up.

Yeah, I can see potential there, so, I hope that you feel the same.

We had some chemistry there at the start,

so still looking to explore it,

but it's... unfortunately,

we just haven't got to spend any time together yet.

Mm, true.

Is there something that you, like, definitely need in a partner?

For me, definitely independence is a pretty big one.

Yeah, there are times of the year where I'm just...

Not there.

..not there and you know, I'd never want that to,

you know, lead to sort of some sort of resentment.

I definitely understand it.

Actually though?

Well, I do, 'cause like...

Like I grew up with that on the farm.

So, I understand that.

My dad's exactly the same.

Karli and I have had a great connection from the start.

She's obviously very attractive

and, you know, I think that she's very smart

and I think she's also come from a similar back-ground

and got her life, you know, very sorted

and knows where she wants to be.

So, having somebody that's all of those things

at once is quite unique.

Looking good.

Another day in paradise. Mm, good.

It's just like another step that we've taken.

The kiss with Bert was lovely.

Just I guess builds that extra connection

between the both of us.

And, yeah, I hope that he feels the same as well.

I'm excited for what's to come.

Yeah, me too.

(GROOVY MUSIC)

# Drivin' round in my four By four... #

Woah, you amaze me!

Ooh, we're actually waltzing!

You are leading!

Joe is... Gosh, he's cheeky.

But he's also, like, very sweet and kind, which is such a nice mix.

But I think it's really important for me to talk to Joe right now

because I have been starting

to really question

how I feel about farm life.

The farm work is not super enjoyable.

I am really struggling with the effect

that that's having on me and my mind.

And thinking about how that would affect me

and my happiness long term.

It's weighing on my mind

and I think that's the big reason why

Joel and I need to talk.

# Oh-oh-oh, oh... #

The dance floor is pumping

at the country ball...

# And I'm not

# Your typical country girl

# Like my diamonds And my pearls... #

Where was the moves, Tom?

No, I'm not a dancer, I'm afraid.

# And I'm not gonna hold you back

# I'm chasing this dream... #

You know what?

I reckon there is some secret dancing in there.

Nah.

And you just haven't unleashed it yet.

# I'm not your typical country girl

# Oh-oh-oh, oh

# Oh-oh-oh, oh... #

..everyone is having some good old country fun.

# Typical country, Typical country girl. #

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

But Susie has something she needs to get off her chest.

I just wanted to have a conversation

with you I guess because I am...

Yeah?

..really struggling.

OK, what?

With...

Oh, oh, what's happening? What's happening?

Um...

With...the farm.

Yeah?

And I can't...

The more things we do...

Yeah?

..the more I recognise that's not the lifestyle for me.

Like, I just don't know what to do.

Like, he is lovely.

I know, I thought you guys had a really good connection.

I think we have chemistry.

Yeah.

There was an instant physical connection with Joe.

But this definitely

is not how I expected to feel about farm life.

It's an impossible situation.

Oh, honey.

The only advice that I can give is really think

about the decision and I suppose,

like, have that moment with Joe to talk to him.

I don't want to hurt Joe,

because I care about...

him finding happiness and love...

just as much as I cared

about that for myself.

And I...I don't know what to do.

Yep. Yeah.

Alright, I think you should go find him

and have a chat.

Yes. OK.

# 'Cause twenty-four/seven, Three-six-five

# This place Ain't never not coming alive

# You got country And city folk all mixed up

# Broadway got me hooked, You got me fallin' in love

# Yeah, truth be told, This town's really growing me. #

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

As the country ball kicks on,

all thoughts turn to...

who will be going on the next solo dates.

How is your decision making going

with the picking your date tonight?

Well, it's private information.

Apparently, you're meant to share.

Nah, it's a...It is a bit of a tough situation.

Like, yeah,

like, there's a few different ways to look at it.

So, obviously like you've got Iz who hasn't had a date,

so, I'm like, I want to take her on a date because I mean...

Well, we haven't had time together, really.

I think I've been very in my head that,

am I getting this date,

if he does say my name, as an obligation,

and not so much because he actually does see a connection

and wants to explore that.

So, the last thing I want to be

is an obligation to someone.

I want to be wanted.

It feels really necessary for me to talk to Dustin tonight.

I need reassurance that he actually wants to take me on a date.

How's it going?

It's nice to have a chat because I think you can tell that

I'm a bit off, in some ways.

I find it hard that I haven't had a lot of time

with you and it's hard to know what you're thinking.

So, how are you feeling about us, if I can ask that?

Yeah, no, so, like obviously, we haven't had that alone time,

like I have with most other girls.

Yeah, I think...

Yeah, at the same time though, like,

I've been in two minds a lot about,

like, your decision tonight.

Because it is ultimately your decision,

but I don't...I don't want to feel like you're choosing me,

because you're trying to play a fair game.

Like, and that's,

like, why I appreciate talking to you tonight,

because, like, if you do pick me, like, I'll be thrilled.

But I want you to pick me because you actually see something.

You actually want to take me on a date

and you actually want to get to know me.

So, if you're feeling like you want to pick me,

because you want to be fair,

and you want to, you know, take that obligation, don't.

Yeah, she did catch me a bit off guard.

I think she's been hiding her feelings a bit.

Seeing her so upset wasn't a nice feeling

and it does...it does upset me too

and, yeah, last thing I wanted to do was hurt someone's feelings.

I'm not really sure what to do.

Talking to Dustin didn't really go the way

that I was hoping or expecting.

It's really hard to know what he's thinking

or how he's feeling and I'm very open

with how I'm feeling and it's hard to not get that back.

Did you get what you needed? No.

I said like...

Yeah, what'd you say?

Don't choose me tonight...

Yeah. ..out of obligation.

Oh.

OK, so you're not...

you're not choosing me tonight then?

Yeah, like, what will you do now if you get the single date?

Well, you'll be happy and you'll grab it by both hands

and you'll give it a red hot crack.

And if you don't get the single date...

Then, we make a plan.

The biggest debate in my head is,

how many more times

can I put my heart on the line for someone that

isn't really giving me anything back,

and is that me, or is that just him,

or is that just the experience?

Still to come, relationships grow.

Do you actually, like, see

something with me, in the future?

I do, actually.

And others are put to the test.

The speed date, we had such chemistry.

Yeah.

This is really hard.

So, this next song is a love song,

and I wrote it with the love

of my life, Alex Mather.

This song is called

'Everything Changed'.

Right, Alex.

Farmers, it's time to ask

that one special lady

for a slow dance.

Claire. Oh, right, OK.

# The summer breeze Is rolling in... #

I don't know how good I am at this. That's alright, either do I.

# I'm laying in your arms again

# Ain't a day that passes by

# Where I don't want you By my side... #

It's a bit romantic.

I want to make sure that Karli knows that I still see her,

and there's still that connection,

that, you know, I'm not leaving her behind by any means.

# That's when Everything changed... #

When Karli kissed Bert on the dance floor,

it was a little bit awkward and it's like hard to see.

It's like, "Oh, that should be me."

That was the last thing that I kind of wanted to see.

# Friday nights down at the bar #

# Strumming on my old guitar... #

Bert and I definitely have chemistry.

There's definitely a strong connection there.

I felt pretty special.

And it was just lovely

to have that moment.

Who wants a dance, then?

Alrighty then, alrighty.

Thank you, thank you. Hello, dear.

I've never really been much of a dancer,

but I am really enjoying the dance with Sarah.

How come you're not all dancey?

You're just all swaying with the music.

You're swaying.

It just felt like it was just us two in that barn,

so I felt really special.

Well, you can do whatever you want. You can spin me. You can spin me.

Oh, you wanna be spun. You wanna be spun around.

You can spin me. There you go. Hey?

There you go. There you go!

I've never been in a relationship before

because I don't put myself out there.

I've never explored anything that gets me to that point

where I am quite vulnerable.

There you go.

So, this is definitely a lot for me, chucking myself into the deep end.

But I'm ready to do that

and ready to experience

all the feelings That comes with it.

And, yeah,

I'm just overall feeling

really good tonight.

# That's when everything changed. #

Love a hay bale.

You're so far away.

Too far? Too far.

There you go. Hello.

So, how are you going? Me?

Mm. Yeah, I'm good. How are you?

Yeah, I'm going alright. Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, you know, you have to make a decision tonight.

I'm hoping it's me. Are ya? You reckon?

You reckon you're in with a chance?

I think I'm in for a good chance.

I do actually appreciate you being kind of like so patient.

Well, there hasn't been many opportunities and...

No. It's just good.

I'm glad you're still here.

I'm glad I'm here too. Are you?

Can't get rid of me that easy. You don't reckon?

No, I'm here to stay, man. Yeah, right. There you go.

Do you see a future on the farm?

Yeah, I mean, totally.

They need teachers everywhere and...

That's right.

..that's where I want to end up, in like a small rural school and...

Helps when your aunty is the principal.

Is she actually? Are you serious? Yeah.

She did told me to keep an eye out for teachers.

There you go. It's done.

There you go. Call her up now. Let's go.

The journey with Sarah has been a little bit slow,

but that might be a good thing.

Might lead to a more serious sort of thing,

so we'll just have to kind of wait and see.

Do you actually, like, see something with me?

I do actually.

Really? Yeah.

Oh, gosh.

I'm very smiley.

Yeah, just...

You've gone all giggly. Yeah!

Got nothing to say.

Yeah. Mmm, yeah.

Yeah.

Mm-hm.

First time I reckon I've heard you run out of shit to say.

It was a nice new step in our little connection

we've got going on.

So, yeah, I'm very...I'm very, very giddy.

Giddy's the word.

You surprised me with that one.

Yeah, what, you weren't expecting it?

I wasn't expecting that.

(CHATTER)

We have the exact same dress, just a different colour.

Oh, my god, I didn't even realise.

Enjoying yourself, mate, or what? Yeah, I'm having a great time.

Feeling good. Yeah?

I'd have fun in a paper bag, Bert, don't worry about that.

Yeah, I could see that. Tonight I've had a great time.

Straight off the bat I think it was something we all needed,

was just a bit of fun.

Gidday. How ya going?

Yeah, I've got some amazing women

that are in my life here at the moment.

The ladies seem to be really enjoying it on the farm,

which is good to see.

I feel like Susie is, doing her best to settle in.

You know, meeting someone like Susie,

it doesn't happen very often for me.

The physical attraction is just undeniable.

We have great chemistry

and we have a lot of fun and she's the kind of person

I could see myself falling in love with.

It sucks.

And I'm over y'all!

Claire, why were you and Susie talking?

Um...

What's going on?

She obviously thinks he's a really great guy

and, you know, she obviously feels really bad

that she's put herself into this position.

And it's not for her, I think it's the lifestyle.

Yeah.

It's like the farm, it's...it's everything.

So, she wants to go home.

She wants to go home.

Do you guys actually care if she goes?

In terms of like whether I care that she goes,

I think that it's the right thing, if that's how she's feeling.

Don't put yourself through all the stress.

She's really beat up internally...

Yeah, yeah.

..about the decision and she's...

I think she's really stressing to talk to Joe.

And I just said you need to speak to Joe.

Yeah.

I am very concerned about how Joe's gonna take this.

He's much more sensitive than people realise,

and I think he takes things to heart a lot.

And I think he's just gonna need time to process this.

Joe is probably the most emotionally intelligent guy

I've ever met, to be honest.

And he's not taking any of this lightly.

Yeah.

Your legs sore or what?

Yeah, doing too much dancing, yeah.

Always.

You've done very well, like, to fit in with the group.

Oh, thank you.

So, I hope you're enjoying yourself now.

That's good to hear.

Yeah, could be something brewing between me and Belle.

I think Belle just has that sort of presence

to her that makes you feel comfortable

and she was very easy to talk to.

She's really lovely.

So, I was gonna pull your side and have a bit of a chat and see

how she's going with it all.

Yeah, I'm pretty keen to, yeah,

get to know you a bit better and explore it.

Yeah. What about yourself?

Yeah, exactly the same. Yeah.

Like, I don't know. I think there's a good vibe.

Yeah.

I don't know. You're pretty funny.

I like him. I get along with him really well.

We have a really good vibe

and so, yeah, I...

I'm feeling good

about Dustin for sure.

Alrighty.

Well, we better get back to it.

Gidday. Gidday!

Where have you been?

Oh, you know, getting around. Getting around.

How are you going?

Not great, mate.

Huh? Can we have a chat?

Yeah, if you're not...

Definitely, if you're not feeling great.

I do think,

given our initial dates...

it will be difficult for Joe.

But I think that it's really important

to be honest with each other.

I think he needs to hear what I have to say...

and see how that makes him feel and what that may change for him.

Here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what's going on?

This is really hard.

The country ball is in full swing,

but new lady Susie

isn't in the mood for dancing.

(SIGHS)

This is really hard.

I really... want to acknowledge that I...

Like our speed date,

and our first date, we had such chemistry.

Yeah.

Like really electric chemistry.

And it would be...

Like, you are just...

such a kind person...

and have been so gracious

throughout this, and so funny.

But um...

And I have seen how much you love what you do.

Yeah.

And you love your horses, and you love your farm,

and you love where you are.

You deserve someone who, is sure about that lifestyle...

and it would be really disingenuous for me to stay...

having tried and realised I don't like it.

Ah...

I...

Oh, that's disappointing.

Like, I came into this, just like you did.

Yeah.

Really wanting to find love.

And love in the way that makes sense for me.

And I thought...

if this is my person...

then I'll fall in love with this lifestyle.

I got there, and I couldn't...

change how I felt about being there.

And that sounds incredibly selfish.

But I needed to try for me, and now I need to leave for you.

Right.

We had such chemistry.

It's sort of a bitter pill to swallow.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

I did not see it coming.

('LOST WITHOUT YOU' BY FREYA RIDINGS PLAYS)

I've always struggled with meeting people

that want to live the same way I do.

('LOST WITHOUT YOU' BY FREYA RIDINGS CONTINUES)

I feel like I miss you already.

('LOST WITHOUT YOU' BY FREYA RIDINGS CONTINUES)

I suppose I only knew Susie for a short amount of time,

but...

I really did have a good feeling about Susie.

She liked me, but just couldn't see herself in that environment,

so that...

that hurts.

Here he is. Where's Susie?

Hi.

Are you OK?

Maybe we should all have a chat. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, I think so.

OK.

In the past, I've definitely liked someone

who I thought things could have potential and go far.

But the farm and living in a rural place

like that just wasn't for them.

But I think that the person, that who is truly right for me,

would be just as in love with the farm as I am.

Yeah, I just thought I would let everyone know

that Susie will not be coming back with us.

She's decided that...

whilst she thought we had a good connection and stuff,

that the lifestyle and farm wasn't for her.

That's something that I've struggled with.

And probably...

the biggest reason that I'm here.

But I also want everyone here

to really think about that as well.

If it's something that you truly want,

because the farm is an extension of me.

It's my life, it's where ultimately I want to be

and it's where I've loved

and where I've grown up my whole life.

And that won't change about me, at all.

I really hope that everyone here is honest

with themselves and how they feel.

That's what I'm looking for in a partnership.

Come here.

You know, I need a person to be open and honest

and direct about what they want and their intentions.

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm a bit worried that Farmer Joe is gonna get very guarded.

And he needs honesty right now.

# If I never saw you play guitar

# And you never asked me out... #

As the country ball Draws to a close,

an important choice lies ahead,

which lady will the farmers choose

to take on their next solo date?

Maybe you could dance with someone.

Oh, what do you want to get picked? Who wants to dance then?

It is very important for me to find love on this experience.

I've got some girls here that I do see a future with,

so I think it's a very good start.

Whoo! Woo! Damn girl, spin!

I'm very confident I'm about to find love.

At this point in time, I can't see why I wouldn't.

That there in itself is really exciting.

# If an ocean came between us... #

Righto, Iz, show me your style.

She me...

It's my turn? Yeah, you've got to show me.

You're the one...you're the one that's gotta lead.

If I get this date, it will give me hope.

And if I don't,

then it will give me clarity.

I'm coming into it so much later

than the other girls.

I think any time

you get one-on-one is really worth it,

and so, yeah, I'd really...

Of course, I really want that solo date.

Oh, I hope you can dance better than I can.

Throughout this experience I've changed.

Starting to let those walls down and really let somebody in.

The two new girls, Taneil and Brooke,

have come in fairly recently,

so, we haven't had a great deal of time together yet.

# If an ocean came between us

# if they stopped at the end of time

# Darling, I'll still find you

# even if we met in another life. #

Bert and I picked up where we left off.

I'm feeling, like, positive

that my time's coming with him

and hopefully that will then cement

a further connection with him.

Oh, my god, you're funny.

There you go. An idiot is the word.

That's right. Good talking idiot. You're right.

That's true.

(SINGING SONG)

Feeling really good about my connection with Farmer Tom,

I mean, yeah, we've definitely taken another step

in developing our connection,

and it would just be nice

to have that full one-on-one time

with them with no interruptions

or anything like that.

Yeah, it would be great.

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE) Thanks guys.

Unfortunately for the other ladies at the farm,

Susie leaving made me question everything.

Gonna make me put my walls up here a bit more,

and I don't think that's fair on the people

that are genuinely excited

about the farm and living this lifestyle.

The time has come for our farmers

to make a difficult decision,

which lady will they take on the next solo date?

Hello, everyone!

I hope you all had fun on the dance floor,

and seeing each other again,

because that's what these events are all about.

Farmers, come on and join me up here.

Joe, you had a big night tonight.

Yeah, mum's choice, Susie...

she disappointingly decided that farm life wasn't for her.

But, you know, the farm's my future

and it's sort of an extension of me.

So, to love me is to love the farm.

And, yeah, Susie couldn't see herself falling

in love with the farm.

I just truly hope that everyone here is being truthful with me.

When you marry a farmer, you marry a farm.

I know. Yeah, yeah. It wasn't for Susie.

And I wish her the very best.

And I hope she finds what she's looking for,

and I'm sure she will.

Well said. Well, you've got these four beautiful ladies here.

Joe, who would you like to invite on the next all important solo date?

I truly am a bit confused about what to do.

There's been a lot of emotion.

And some of the ladies that are left may like me,

but may not like my lifestyle.

So, I do fear that...

more of this is out there.

OK, Joe,

you had a big night tonight.

Yeah, mum's choice,

Susie, decided that farm life

wasn't for her.

And I wish her the very best,

and I hope she finds what she's looking for,

and I'm sure she will.

Well said.

Well, you've got these four beautiful ladies here.

Joe,

who would you like to invite on the next all important solo date?

It's...it's been a big night.

It's been a bit of a rough night.

But I've...

You know, I'm focusing on the fact

that I still have four beautiful ladies

who really do want to be at the farm and accept that as part of me

and my future, which is great.

The lady I'd like to invite for the solo date...

I know where I stand with this lady.

She's always very honest with me

and I think I need that at the moment.

So, I would like to choose...

Calya.

Honestly, after tonight's whirlwind,

the fact that he picked me,

mind blown.

He's blowing my mind every time.

Tonight's been hard for Farmer Joe,

I'm here for him and I am willing to,

just step into this fully.

Farmer Tom, who have you decided to whisk away on a romantic date?

I think if I get that solo date,

it would just take

our connection further

and deepen it more and solidify it.

So, the lady I've decided to take away on the solo date

has been very patient.

Hasn't been on a date before.

You know, it'd be good to kind of explore that

and see where it can go.

So...

Sarah, would you like to come on a date?

Sure. I'd love to.

That's the go then. That's the go.

I feel really good getting picked for the solo date.

It's super exciting to spend

that one-on-one time with Farmer Tom.

I've heard all about it, so.

Really excited to see what happens.

Now, Farmer Bert, which one of these wonderful women

would you like to take on your next special date?

I would really love

if, you know,

he gave that solo date to me.

There is definitely something there

and I'm excited to explore where that goes.

Karli, you want to go on a date?

Yeah, I would love to.

I feel over the moon.

I'm very excited to go on this solo date with him.

I've been waiting for this

and, yeah, I'm really

looking forward to it.

And finally, Farmer Dustin.

Which lady would you like to spend some alone time with?

Getting chosen for this date tonight means a lot to me.

It's sort of endgame to me because if I don't get it,

I think, it gives me more of an answer

than anything else that he could do.

Yeah, so, the lady I want to take for the solo date,

someone I haven't...

haven't really had that much time with.

And I think she's really taken a bit of a shine to the farm life,

which is good to see.

So, the lady I'm gonna take home on the date is Iz.

Finally!

No, it'll be very exciting and look,

it's the first opportunity I've had

really to have some alone time

with Dustin as well,

so, we can sort of forget

about the others for a second and just focus on us.

I'm pretty excited to take Izzy on a solo date.

I know that she's an amazing girl,

so, I'm just keen to hang out and get to know her a bit better.

Being a latecomer, I feel like I need to, yeah,

make the most of all the time.

And, so, yeah, I'm pretty disappointed

not to have that one-on-one time.

Well, ladies, I hope you all had a lovely time tonight.

It's time for you to head back to your farms,

and I will see you all again very soon.

Goodnight.
