[Lana chiming]

♪ I'm looking for pure love ♪

♪ Pure love ♪

[Marvin chuckling]

First green light with Melinda,
the sunset was just there,

and it was a magical moment.

♪ Love ♪

- Is it still green? [gasps] Mmm.
- Yeah.

[Desiree] All right, get a room,
it's not the Nature Channel.

♪ Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ♪

Marvin and Melinda have shown what
it takes to bag themselves a green light.

Cam, this can be our wedding veil.

- Looks a bit, um, a bit dark. A bit scary.
- [Emily] Yeah, then pull it off me.

[Desiree] And for some of the others,
let's just say they've been less patient.

- Last night was 110% on impulse.
- Well, after we kissed we felt closer.

We've done a pretty good job
of keeping it low key for now.

Mm-hmm. [chuckling]

Oh, I see. Just a couple of blonds
hitting the town.

[laughs]

Marvin and I got the green light!
[screams]

[all cheering]

[squeals]

- Lana's feeling the love today then!
- Yes.

- Why's she being so nice to us?
- Yeah.

I'm scared. Normally she gives
and then she takes.

- Yes.
- [melodic chime]

- Oh!
- Lana!

God, Lana.
Just give it a rest, have a day off.

[Lana] Hello.
Please gather the guests at the beach.

- Oh my God.
- [Melinda] Let's go!

Let's go, ladies!

I already know what's coming,
so I'm worried.

[Desiree] Looks like time's up for Joey
and Carly after their kiss last night.

[Melinda] Here we are again.

Nobody here knows
about Carly and I's kiss.

and I really hope if it does come out,

that everyone will forgive me
and understand.

[Desiree] I'm gonna go right ahead
and say that's wishful thinking.

- [melodic chime]
- Oh.

Whoa. Whoa.
Some troubles are coming, guys!

I'm sitting here thinking,
who broke the rules now?

Who did it this time?

Does anybody want to say anything?

[suspenseful music playing]

[Emily] I am positive tonight

that no one would've been stupid enough
to break any rules.

[Lana] Hello, everyone.

Some of the boys
made significant breakthroughs

in the workshop earlier today.

[snapping fingers]

But even though
you are nearing the end of the process,

there are still individuals
who are breaking the rules.

f*ck's sake.

What the hell?

I'm actually done, like, it's a joke now.

What?

Oh my gosh, another rule break.

I'm honestly baffled. I just don't get it.
What more do these people need?

[tense music playing]

I've been completely honest
and I'm going to continue to be honest.

I think that's all you can ask for.

Sorry, guys.

- Oh, shut up. Idiot. [scoffs]
- I'm glad you think I'm kidding. I'm not.

[Emily] Wait, what?

Uh, so, let me get down
to the nitty-gritty.

[tense music continues]

Me and Carly kissed last night.

You've been here for two days. [chuckles]

What? You and Carly?

Honestly, it just happened,
we were on the bed together.

- Just cuddling.
- Are you for real?

You were, like,
crying for Chase yesterday night.

Carly kissing Joey, probably spite
trying to get to Chase, you know.

You're not kissing him
'cause you want a connection.

We know why you're kissing him.
So admit it, own it.

I don't feel like that.
If I did, I would still be sad.

I woke up today and felt happy.

I'd be happy too if I'd wasted $3,000.

[laughs]

I wanted to kiss Tabitha so bad
last night.

We had a genuine connection,

but you're wasting money on Joey?

Carly, that was a very selfish decision.
Joey, you just got here, dude.

Chase has been here longer than me.

I don't know if he feels the right to
kind of shame me in front of everybody,

but I'm not the one to take it.

I'm not going to apologize for it.

It put a smile on her face
that I haven't seen

- in this entire time that I've been here.
- Yeah.

Ooh, Chase. Keep a calm face.

I would do it again because it felt right.

The way Joey is standing up for us
right now is like,

that's a fricking man. Like, that's hot.

I like that.

I would like to see where this goes.

If you're gonna come at me, come at me
politely and we can talk about it,

but I'm not taking a lecture.

[Desiree] And cue the cockroach.

[buzzing]

[softly] Oh sorry, now's not the time.

[Lana] As a result, a total of $3,000

has been deducted from the prize fund.

The prize fund now stands at $37,000.

- That's low. That is low.
- [Emily] It's embarrassing.

[Desiree] That's what happens
when you tickle someone's tonsils.

That should have been me and Chase, 100%.

So we've got a lot of catching up to do.

[Desiree] With that prize drop
taken care of,

I guess we can all get an early night.

[Lana] I have further business.

[tense music plays]

[Desiree] Or not.

Lana's done enough damage for tonight.
Don't need anymore drama.

But she's got a little more for us,
hasn't she?

[tense music continues]

Surely, we can't have anymore bad news.

[dramatic music playing]

[Lana] The retreat will be ending
in three days,

after which, I will be allocating
the prize fund to those most deserving.

However,

I have observed that not all of you
are sufficiently invested in the process.

Two people in particular

are showing no interest

in changing their approach
to sex and relationships.

And it's for that reason

that I will be sending
those two people home tonight.

[Desiree] Wow!
Lana is not playing around tonight.

My heart just dropped.
My heart just dropped.

Oh, sh*t.

[tense music playing]

- Who could it be?
- It could be us.

I think Lana's gonna send us home
because we had sex,

but we're learning the process,
we're growing, and I hope Lana sees it.

[Carly] I broke the rules last night.

I'm so stressed thinking,
oh, it's gonna be me.

It could be me and Em,
but I'm not ready to go yet.

[Christina] I'm feeling nervous.

I've no idea what's going to happen.
We definitely could be next.

[tense music continues]

At this point,
we're all on the chopping block tonight.

[Lana] The guests leaving the retreat

are...

[music intensifies]

...Robert and Christina.

Oh! [gasps, groans]

- What?
- [Marvin] No way.

You have got to be kidding me.

[Lana] Robert and Christina,

since arriving at the retreat,
you have ignored my rules.

I love to... I f*ck the sh*t out of people.

[Robert]
She's a very, very flirtatious girl.

[Christina] Rules are there to be broken.

- Just gave him a handjob, guys, that's it.
- What?

I'm a bad man. [groans]

[Lana] You have failed to grow...

There's not a time
I haven't thought about sex with you.

I'm thinking about Robert,
I just want to rip his clothes off.

[Robert] I would say I'd ring around
and make some apologies,

but I don't think I've got the time
to be honest. [laughs]

[Lana] ...and generally showed
very little respect for the process.

I'm a rule breaker.
Always have been, probably always will.

[Robert] Oh, my God.

I just can't help myself, can I?

["We Belong to the Sky"
by Nicolas Boscovic playing]

[Emily] What, what, what, what, what?

- No, no, no!
- [Christina] Mmm...

We're definitely
two very passionate people.

I would not take back
any of those rule breaks.

I wish I broke more rules, actually.

[Desiree] Yeah, I'm thinking
Lana made the right choice.

["We Belong to the Sky" continues]

[Robert] I knew it was going to be us.

We've broken rules,
we probably would've broken more,

but we've loved it, and I'm walking away
with the best-looking girl in the house.

What more can I ask for?

f*cking scared me.

I'm just so thankful right now.

I still need help. I'm still trying
to learn, I'm trying to progress.

Aw.

I felt like I was going to go home.

But Marvin and I have been
making a lot of progress,

and I know for a fact
we have that deeper connection.

[Emily] I'm so grateful
to still be in this retreat,

but it's very bittersweet right now.

That was a lot.

[exhales] Damn,
this is a real wake-up call for me.

Lana isn't messing around,
and if she feels it's your time to go,

no matter what, she's gonna do it.

[Lana] Robert and Christina,
please leave the retreat.

Lots of love, you guys.

Love you so much!

[snapping fingers]

We're gonna break some rules
as soon as we leave this retreat.

["Stories" by Pop Talk playing]

[Larissa] I'm just confused by the whole
thing with Nathan and I right now.

I don't struggle to feel secure
in a relationship normally,

but I'm worried about what might happen.

[Cam] It's gonna be sad night tonight
without Christina and Robert,

but, plus side,

you don't have to worry
about any 20 second handies.

[Desiree] The night's still young, Cam,
who knows what could happen?

["No Problem" by Gareth Johnson,
Evan Jenkins and Kick Horns playing]

[Desiree] All right.
Who's up to something?

[Tabitha] The robot's not going
to stop me.

No one can say anything,
I don't give a f*ck.[laughs]

[whispering] Do you want to blow 20 grand?

[indistinct conversation]

[exhales, laughs]

I'm sitting here thinking like,
"Look, Chase, you put up a good fight,"

but like, with Tabitha,

I've met my match.

[music continues]

Lana, I'm sorry.

I'm done for.

[Desiree] Uh-oh, was that a touchdown?

["The Night We Danced" by Circ playing]

[melodic chime]

[music continues]

- [Lana] Good morning, everyone.
- Lana.

Morning.

Good morning, Lana.

[Lana] I hope you're benefiting
from resisting your physical desires.

Anyone want to confess anything now?

[whimsical music playing]

Why are you smiling that way, bro?

[Desiree] Yeah,
why are you smiling that way, bro?

[whimsical music continues]

It's a good morning.

I actually feel really good today.

I'm not the proudest
that I broke the rules, granted,

but at the same time we did agree

that genuine connections
subcede rules any day of the week.

I'm genuinely happy with Tabitha.

I think it was worth it.

[Lana] Have a productive day, everyone.

- Bye, Lana.
- Bye.

I woke up kind of nervous
about the Larissa situation.

After my day with Elle,
I just felt like a little spark that

perhaps Larissa and I have been missing.

We have connected at times, but it's not
quite the connection that I'd hoped for.

We're just not... we're not compatible.

[Desiree] These two are in the same bed,
but I'm not sure they're on the same page.

[upbeat music playing]

[grunts, chuckles]

- [Desiree] Wait, what?
- I love it.

[Desiree] Is Melinda getting an eyeful
of the Tower?

- So hot.
- Michael Jordan ring.

[Desiree] Oh, she's talking
about his earring. My bad.

If I was a biscuit, what would I be?

You'd be a chocolate Hobnob.

Yeah, why?

Because you're, like, smooth, and yummy,

and f*cking sexy all in one.

Aw, that's nice, eh?

So, now we're officially wifed off.

[chuckles]

- Aren't we?
- Yeah.

I miss you in my sleep.

- Do you?
- [Emily] Yeah.

I want to be with you
all the time. [laughs]

Aw.

Me and Em, we've been together
since the first day,

and I would like to feel like
we might be something after this retreat.

I need to stop
running away from situations.

My head is all over the gaff,
it's doing a 360 at the moment.

Wifey for lifey.

Oh yeah...

[Desiree] Maybe I won't
buy a hat just yet.

[Desiree] Lana's called the group
to the cabana,

and it looks like
she's downloaded her dirty data.

Girl, do you even get a chance
to recharge your batteries with this lot?

They're probably all gonna shout at me.

They're very focused on the money,
they've forgotten how to have fun.

- Some more troubles. Lordy.
- Yup.

Doesn't have to be trouble.

These guys are about to crucify me,

especially after preaching all these rules
and coming for people.

[melodic chime]

[Lana] Hello, everyone.

[all] Hi, Lana.

[Lana] Last night, Robert and Christina

were asked to leave the retreat.

My hope was that
it would have focused the rest of you,

but it seems I was incorrect.

Unfortunately, there has been
another breach of the rules.

[group] Oh.

At this point,
really don't need to guess too much.

Chase has it written all over his face.

Tabitha really can't look at anyone.
It's pretty obvious.

[Carly] Thousand percent
this prize drop is because of Chase,

and I'm calling it now.

[Desiree] I wish Chase would stop
doing a sex face.

- All right guys, listen.
- Here we go! [laughs] Here we go.

All right, listen. I said I'll come clean
when I break the rules.

I kissed Tabitha last night.

Look at you.
Spending money on useless things.

[Lana] You have lost another $3,000.

You got so mad at me yesterday,
and then do the exact same thing.

Chase is being so hypocritical. Last night
he was freaking out on me and Joey,

but then hours later went and decided to
do the exact same thing.

I don't know if it was spiteful
or he had to one-up me, I don't know.

[Lana] However, that is not all.

[suspenseful music playing]

There was also
another breach of the rules.

What?

- [Melinda] I thought it was a kiss.
- I thought it was a kiss.

Yeah, maybe it was
a little bit more than a kiss.

We was just a bit like...

...playful.

[Desiree] Oh, that's Chase's sex face.

You kissed, and what was...

Felt his willy, get over it.

[rock music playing]

[Emily] If anyone has a right
to break the rules, it is me and Cam.

We have had the strongest,
longest connection in here.

And we haven't broken rules
in, like, over a week.

[Lana] Another $4,000
has been deducted from the prize fund.

No sexy time is worth that much money.

The prize fund now stands at $30,000.

We'll have to get a credit card
in here. [chuckles]

[sighs]

Are we all just going to sit here
and actually forgive them?

This is an absolute liberty.

[Cam] We're all here
for the same f*cking reason.

Is there respect for anyone?

We're in the hot seat right now,

but everybody's been in the hot seat
at this point.

[Carly] This is making me so angry

'cause he was such a douchebag
with me and Joey last night.

What is the deal with you and Chase?

Like you caught up over it?

- [Carly] Nope.
- [Nathan] Not at all?

No, it hurts because of how it happened,
and we haven't chatted.

Chase has really upset me.

I just can't handle this anymore.

I need to make it clear,

like I don't want to go on in this house
awkward anymore.

[Desiree] I'm thinking these guys
might need some kind of intervention.

What you got for us, Lana?

[Lana] Since Carly and Chase broke up...

You barely even look at me,
you barely f*cking say anything to me.

- I'm supposed to know how you feel?
- I think I'm gonna go solo.

...there has been a growing tension
between them.

This has had a negative impact
on their mood,

their new relationships,
and the wider group as a whole.

For that reason,
I have designed a workshop

to teach them and their new partners
to speak their truth.

They will be using communication
as a tool to connect with each other

on an emotional level.

[Desiree] Helping Lana today
is Brenden Durell.

He's an expert
in communication and connection.

I'm bringing them to this workshop
so they can learn

how to control your emotions
so other people can speak

and you can listen to them effectively.

I'm going to teach them how to
improve their communication by listening.

[Desiree] Hold on.
You're saying communicating with people

and telling them how you feel
can actually help in your relationships?

I got to write that one down.

How you doing?

- What's going on?
- Hi.

I want closure with Chase
a hundred percent

because there is unfinished business.

Good to see you all. Welcome. Welcome.

Yeah, I'm not going to lie,
I'm not looking forward to this one.

There's three types of people
in this world

in regards to communication.

There's a reactionary-based person,
there is a responsive person,

and then there's also a shutdown person.

Where do you feel you sit
in this spectrum?

- Mmm, probably reactive.
- [Joey] I'm definitely more reactive.

Almost like
you don't want to put up with anything.

What about you?

Uh, shut down, 1000%.

[Brenden] Like not even a budge,
you don't even come back.

I just go quiet,
I think it started with boyfriends.

- [Brenden] Got you.
- Um, I'm a shut down.

I walk away from things that I don't like.

At the end of the day,

you, you, you, you,

we all want the same thing.

We want safety,

we want peace, we want love,

we want harmony.

That's actually
what the whole world wants.

Lana has told me, Chase and Carly,
there's been a breakdown in communication.

And for this workshop, I'm going to ask
if you guys can switch.

[Desiree] Time to see
if Lana's plan to fix things

is actually going to work
or if she's about to start World w*r 3.

Here I am, thinking I'm going to get
some quality one-on-one time with Tabitha,

build our relationship stronger,

and here I am again with Carly.

Man, can't we just let this die?

What we're going to do
is called the gag experience.

[Desiree] That's got Tabitha interested.

It's not what you think. It's not about
the freaky, freaky experience.

I'm going to pass out these hanks.

- Hanks.
- [Brenden] Yup.

So we're gonna start over here,
Chase and Carly.

[Carly] This'll be good to do this.

[Brenden] So in this exercise,
we're gonna give Carly the space

just to speak her heart to you.

[Desiree] Um, is it me or does this
now feel like a hostage situation?

The purpose of this is
to allow somebody to speak their truth

without you taking it personally

You're gonna be able to say
anything you want to Chase.

Anything that's been burning inside of you
that you haven't been able to say.

[Carly] I have held so much discomfort
towards Chase in me,

and never have said
what I really feel to him.

I always keep it in 'cause I just think
it's easier than fighting with him.

[Desiree] Hold on tight, here we go.

Okay, well, first of all,
I think you have a huge ego.

I don't even know who you are,
if what we had was true.

I think you lied to me,
I think you were really manipulative.

I think you were with me
for not the right reasons.

You make me feel not confident.
You never made me feel good about myself.

Chase is representing every guy
I've kind of ever really dated,

and that's why it's so important
that I tell him exactly how I'm feeling

without him being able to say
a fricking word.

I asked you the whole time
to be affectionate,

as soon as someone else walked in,
you were affectionate.

I left crying,
and you knew how upset I was,

you never asked how I was,
you did not care.

I can think
of about a million places I'd rather be

than in Chase's spot right now.

I was sick to my stomach
over you moving on so quickly.

You're not nice. You're not nice.

I've never been spoken to
by anybody like that before.

♪ Don’t you know that you gotta take
Some of the blame ♪

I guess the value in listening is
I feel her anger.

I feel her upsetness.

I'm glad she told me how she felt.

♪ Well, it’s not
And it’s got real serious ♪

[Tabitha] This whole Chase situation
is very intense.

Just like relax, chill out, breathe.

All right, Chase, express yourself now.

Carly, I think that you are
a really genuine human.

You have a lot of great qualities
about you.

I struggled because I felt like
as amazing of a person you are,

you dealt with, like,
a lot of insecurities

and I felt like you casted
a lot of those insecurities onto me,

when they didn't need to be there.

I see the tears, I saw the sadness,

and I did choose to ignore it.

That was a selfish play call
and that was wrong. I apologize.

[Carly] It was really nice
to hear him apologize.

The things he said, I agreed with.
I admit I'm insecure.

This is something I really need to work on

as a person and as a partner,
and in a relationship.

[Joey] She tore into Chase,
and it looked like she needed it.

But now I'm seeing her mood lighten up
a little bit.

Maybe she just needs the right love
to bounce back.

I want you
to get a little closer to each other

and touch the other person's heart.

Everything that we worked through today,
it's all just stories,

but at the root
that person is still a b*ating heart.

Always remember that.

Share some eye contact. Hug. Beautiful.

[Chase] Not my favorite workshop,

but I feel like
this is part of my process,

and transitioning this
into my relationship with Tabitha,

I can genuinely listen to her,
you know, before things get bad.

This is way too deep for me.

I mean, I'm here to have fun
at the end of the day.

I just wanna say
you're all so brave for doing this,

and I thank you so much for going there
and working through your stuff.

- [Carly] Thank you.
- [Brenden] Much love to you all. Namaste.

- Thank you.
- [all applauding]

Today's making me realize I should always
speak my honest truth to the partner.

It is something I've wanted to do for
years and years and years with boyfriends,

and I've never gotten the chance to.

I think I projected a lot of
my past relationships onto Chase,

and I do feel bad about that, but also,

he needed to hear what I had to say.

[Desiree] So, there you go.

Proof that introducing a gag
into a relationship

is always a good thing.

["Find the Answer" by SHIPS, Georgia Mason
and Robert Lamont playing]

[Emily] I actually don't know what I'd do
without your cuddles on this bed.

I'll be fine when I go home. Just not now.

[Cam] She has no idea I've been having
these doubts and these thoughts. Um...

It's not anything she's doing wrong.

It's all me. I start thinking, "Okay,
why don't I just commit to something."

But then I go,
"No, no, scary. Back out of that."

So it's like... [chuckles]

I'm constantly just going back and forth
in my head.

[song continues]

Things are definitely weird
with Nathan and I right now.

Um, he went on his date with Elle,

and since then, I haven't had a chance
to talk to him about it,

so, yeah, everything's up in the air.

[music continues]

- The workshop was really intense.
- It was.

I felt bad that you were there
and had to listen to everything.

- But I think it was really good.
- Of course.

[Carly] And you needed to hear
kind of how he treated me.

It was definitely like an eye-opener.

You think so?

But obviously there's two sides
to every story.

He obviously knows
he done something wrong to you.

[upbeat music playing]

He's trying to listen to us now,
look at him.

[music continues]

[both laugh]

He's so sneaky.

- I've known he's a player.
- Yeah.

- I can work with that, I'm a player too.
- [Carly] Yeah.

I'm not here for anything serious,
I just wanna have a laugh,

he's an attractive guy, I don't care.

I'm not here
for a super intense relationship.

I'm single.

Everyone else is practically single.

So really, we can do what we want.

[Desiree] Seems like
that gagging experience

has made Tabitha even hornier.

Something tells me she won't be
getting between one couple though.

Since yesterday's green light,

Marvin and Melinda are connecting
on a whole new level.

I like you so much.

I'm coming to Paris for a month.

Have sex for, almost,

every hour.

[Desiree] Every hour?
Is that a reward or a punishment?

The sexual tension between Marvin and I

is unbearable.

Mmm. Mmm.

Mmm.

It's...

hard...

for us to stay away from each other.

[kissing]

Right now, I'm realizing
it's not just about sex.

It's way deeper.

There's a real connection, and yeah,
I can really see myself with that girl.

[Desiree] I'm calling it, guys. First
Too Hot to Handle marriage right there.

[groovy music playing]

Melinda might be booking
her ticket to France,

but any chance of Nathan
making it all the way to New Zealand

is looking a little bit more unlikely.

["Reason To Survive" by Chris Bussey,
Craig Bussey and Michael Scott playing]

[Nathan] Feel like

maybe I need to let Larissa know
the feelings I have, or don't have.

You know, it's so tough,

but I, uh... I probably need
to address it this evening.

- [Larissa] Howdy.
- Hey, darlin'.

- You're the color of your shirt.
- [Nathan] Like I've b*rned?

- A little bit.
- There's no way.

I've got so much cocoa butter on.

I don't want to hurt her, but she really
just deserves an explanation.

You and I've been here for a while now,
and I guess I've just been

on the ropes with you,
I just don't know how you feel.

You don't know how I feel.
We kind of just breeze by the day.

- You know I went on a date with Elle.
- Hmm.

We just got along very well, very quickly.

Mm-hmm.

We've been on a... a journey
with one another,

but it's been so slow.

We're both very slow burners.

I did ask you to spend more time
and give more affection.

I honestly did try, and the minute
a new girl comes and shows attention,

you turn your head.

I think Nathan is just making excuses.

How he's acting shows me his true colors.

You know, I don't want anything with Elle.

I don't want to kiss her,
we just got along.

But I... I've just...
I've never felt like you liked me.

- That's the simple truth.
- I've told you I do.

- You haven't, babe, not once.
- I have.

You could've asked, you didn't have to
go on a date with another girl.

I honestly like you,
I feel like we have a good connection,

I wanted to be like everyone else is
in this villa with you,

but just the way you've acted is, like,
so utterly disrespectful.

I didn't mean to disrespect you,
I was just being honest,

but sometimes it feels like
we just share a bed and nothing more.

[sighs] This is so

not how I wanted this conversation to go.

I feel like I've absolutely
been mugged off. I feel like sh*t.

I'm sorry, but I don't believe
I've treated you like that.

If you think that's not disrespecting me,
there's no point having this conversation.

Uh... [sighs]

Like, it's true. So I just like, hope...

Thanks for chatting.

Yeah.

[somber music playing]

I gave Nathan a lot of chances,
but just over it now.

It's hard, but I think the right decision
for me is to leave the retreat today.

[Desiree] Wow, so after getting dumped
by Nathan,

Larissa is dumping the retreat? No way.

There's nothing else I can learn.
It's just time for me to... to go.

I did not see this coming at all.
None of us did, and we are shocked.

Sorry.

I think this was really hard for Larissa,
but she's a smart girl,

so I know she's made the right choice,
even though it sucks.

- Be nice to Melinda, please.
- [Marvin] I will.

I don't want to hate you.

I'm happy for Larissa to leave
by her own terms.

But of course I'm going to miss her.

[Nathan] Her and I didn't quite figure
things out between the two of us,

but I don't hold anything against her,

and I hope she doesn't hold
anything against me either.

Wish me luck.

I want to stay true to myself
and I want to leave happy,

and knowing that I've held my head high
and been strong this whole time.

I love you. I love you.

♪ Let out my roar and... ♪

Hi! [laughs]

Holy sh*t.

Harder. Harder.

- You're too stiff.
- [Larissa] I don't know, Lana!

When it comes to the emotional stuff,
I don't like that. [shivers]

From, like, my childhood and growing up,

I kind of built a wall up.

I'm gonna continue to try
and let my guard down.

I think you're, like, amazing.

[melodic chime]

Even if I didn't leave the retreat
with a romantic connection,

I have learned so much about myself.

And so thank you, Lana,
you've been the best teacher ever.

It's been amazing.

[gentle music playing]

[Marvin] It's hard to see someone leave
right now.

- [Melinda] I'll miss her.
- [Carly] I already miss her.

[music continues]

[Emily] Do you feel guilty
about Larissa leaving?

I think we both could have done
so much better.

Yeah, we just didn't gel, and you know,

I always wanted kind of
what you guys have. Like, that'd be great.

She'll always be special to me.

She, um... She helped me open up in ways
that I never have before.

Yeah, I'm... I'm sad to see Larissa go.

[dance music playing]

[Desiree] Listen, guys, we're all sad
that Larissa has left,

but what are we gonna do?

Not enjoy the naughty costume party
that Lana's arranged in her honor?

I don't think so.

I've been a good girl for a week,
it's time to get my sinner side back out.

[Tabitha] I was thinking
if I dress like an angel,

I might be able to
get away with more stuff.

Lana will be distracted.

[Desiree] I think
this theme is backfiring.

Marvin is looking like

[Carly] Joey's not really a sinner.

He's so nice, he's more of a saint.
I feel so good when I'm with him.

[Emily] I love the fact
that Cam's a sinner.

Maybe it's time
I bring out the devil in him.

[Cam] Em, she doesn't know
I'm having these doubts.

I know I need to do what's right
and get it off my chest.

I don't have these conversations
'cause I'm not very good at them.

[Desiree] All right, Cam,
time to put on your big boy pants.

- You okay? Good.
- Yeah, I'm good, I'm good.

- Just wanted to have a chat.
- Oh yeah?

I feel that...
we haven't really spoken about things,

and you've probably noticed
I've been like, quiet, a bit not myself.

[chuckles nervously]

Um...

I was having... Straight up,
just having doubts about this.

I'm retracting from you. I don't mean to.
I do it automatically.

It happens with girls all the time.

It's just... It's just me.

Mm-hmm. That old chestnut.

- "It's not you, it's me," yeah?
- Yeah.

[somber music playing]

It is actually quite a shock
to know how you're feeling.

I had no idea you were feeling this way.

Like I said, this is my own problems.

I don't want to keep this thing going

if I think I'm going to hurt you
or you're going to hurt me.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist
to know how I feel about you.

I'm, like, very into you.

I just don't get why you aren't scared.

I honestly don't understand
how you're so calm with this.

Because I know within myself
that I like you.

And I'm going with it.

If I was to back away from my feelings
and act how you're acting,

then how's that going to be of any benefit
to either of us?

Like, you're just doing
what you usually do

and as soon as you get feelings
for someone, you jump ship.

I'm very pessimistic about relationships.
I always have been.

You know, my parents,
they both divorced at a young age.

And then my mom divorced again,
my dad divorced again.

It's as if she's mad for thinking
that me and her can work.

Relationships don't work. It's weird,
but I'm just very pessimistic about them.

On the outside, I don't have
this conversation. I just sack it.

- [Emily] Yeah.
- But I want to have this conversation

and let you know
that I've got these weird little issues,

but I'm trying to work through them.
Just wanna be honest with you.

Listen, I don't judge you on anything.

- It's obviously all in your head.
- [Cam] Yeah, it is.

I'm here for you through thick and thin.
I really, really f*cking like you.

I do too.

And I'm excited for our future together.

I really am.

I may put a brave face on,
but I'm genuinely upset.

This is exactly why
I am the way I am with guys.

I can't stand to be hurt, and one time,

I tell a guy how I really feel
and really start to open up,

it just all goes tits up.

Lana, how about you give these guys
a break and turn in early tonight?

[melodic chime]

- [tense music playing]
- I guess not.

We figured out that every time
there's dancing, there's usually bad news.

[rock music playing]

Here we go.

No one lost any money.

[Desiree] Well, not in
the last five minutes, no.

[Lana] Good evening, everyone.

- Hi, Lana.
- Good evening.

I'm nervous because something is coming.

[Lana] As we begin to enter
the final phase of my program,

it is time to recognize the progress
and growth that has been made...

Huh?

[Lana] ...and to give you
an opportunity for redemption.

Marvin and Melinda,

your relationship has so far
cost the group the most money.

I have sinned.

However...

...with the steps you have taken together

and the clear bond you have shown,

you deserve the chance
to return money to the prize fund.

- Yes!
- [all cheering]

[Desiree] Come on. You guys should
know by now, it's never that easy.

Let's see if we can do it though.

[Lana] I believe in second chances.

Therefore, it is time for you
to face the ultimate test.

- [gasps]
- [Nathan] Here we go!

Oh, f*ck.

No!

Tonight, you will sleep in the suite.

[group cheering]

We're f*cked! We're f*cked!

[Carly] They have sex
while we're in the room,

so having a private room
when we're not there, best of luck to you.

[Desiree] Well, you can
quite literally kiss goodbye

to the rest of that prize pot.

And we are screwed.

- Game faces, okay? Come on.
- You're right. Absolutely.

I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to resist

the devil Melinda tonight

because she's hot. She's fire.

[Lana] If you succeed
without breaking further rules,

I will increase the prize fund
from $30,000

to $55,000.

Whoo!

[group cheering]

That's a chunk.

Finally, a chance to win back some money.

This is your last chance.

We're all getting our hopes up, guys.

Do I have faith in them?
I mean, probably not.

I'm expecting to wake up
tomorrow morning, them to have had sex,

no money in the bank,
and we're all fuming.

- We got this.
- [Elle] Y'all got this.

I have faith.

[Lana] Bonne chance, Marvin and Melinda.

Enjoy it. But not too much.

- Right.
- Yeah.

[Lana] Please make your way to the suite.

[all cheering]

The moment we step into that room,

I might just want to pounce on him!

- [Marvin] Ahh!
- [Melinda] Oh my God.

- [Marvin] Candles.
- [Melinda] Oh!

- [Marvin] And there's condoms.
- Why'd you do this?

Maybe this is my time
to test the waters a bit,

Um, where's your head at with Emily?
You good?

[Cam] Um, yeah. Like, I'm...

Are you, like, gonna marry each other?

No, no, don't say marry.
Marry's a big word.

'Cause you seem quite committed already.

I'm proper like grass is greener.

So, when like us newbies come in
as more options,

did anything change for you?

[laughs] Eh?

- I've made the mistake of, like...
- With Christina?

- Yeah. Can't make that mistake again.
- Why are you laughing?

Do you think you'll ever change?

I like to think I'm learning, yeah.

This is my problem.
I'm just like my head always turns.

- Like, do I even trust myself?
- Sometimes that's not a bad thing.

Like, I've got no loyalty to Emily,
or Chase really.

No loyalty to Chase?

[Tabitha] Do I think
Chase is boyfriend material?

I think he should be more concerned
about me being girlfriend material.

Maybe if I was here from the beginning,
who knows what would happen?

Might be different.

This ain't a good time.
I'm having some doubts about Em,

and you've just strolled in here
looking fit and whatnot.

[laughing] This is not
what I need right now.

- Do you like risk?
- Yeah, I totally do.

Do you think I'm a bit of a risk?

- [Cam] Yeah.
- Why are you smiling?

- Don't know. [laughs]
- [Tabitha] Why'd you look so horny?

- So, nice chat.
- Yeah, very nice chat.

Just gonna get naked in here.

- [laughs]
- [Tabitha] You can watch if you want.

[Desiree] Hold that thought.
This just took a turn.

I need to get back to the private suite
bathroom and check on them.

Nobody move a muscle.
