04x30 - Episode 30: Unseen Bits

[bunniefuu]

[narrator] Previously on Love Island USA…

Baby Z.

Sydney.

[narrator] An emotional recoupling…

Mackenzie.

[narrator] …had goodbyes…

[Courtney speaking quietly]

[narrator] …and reunions.

We've come a long way in six days.

I'm more than happy
that my heart led me to you, Syd.

[narrator] And an '80s party
saw battle commence.

-[Phoebe speaking quietly]
-Oh, sh*t.

This is definitely more
than friendship to me, so…

-You talk with Joel?
-Mm-hmm.

-Oh, sorry. Hi. Oh, hi.
-[Phoebe] Hey.

[narrator] Tonight…

tensions rise.

Chad has very much downplayed
his feelings towards you, Phoebe.

I think it's like,
a little unfair for you to say

that he downplayed his feelings
towards me.

How is that not fair, Phoebe?
I'm looking out for you.

I would wanna know that to someone else
he's not saying the same thing.

To the someone else
who he knows is interested in him.

Let's play, "Let's Face It."

[narrator] And Tweets…

-So, the full Tweet is…
-"Blank is faking it with blank."

Oh, that is f*cked up.

-This about to get real.
-[narrator] …lead to trouble.

Oh, my f*cking God.

For him to sit out there
and get annoyed at me.

Did he?

He was, like, all pissed.

[sighing]

[narrator] Welcome to Love Island USA.

Phoebe knows the way to a man's heart
is through his stomach.

I'm not sure
her tongue's gonna reach that far,

but she's giving it a damn good try.

Luckily, Mackenzie is about to interrupt

before Phoebe's tongue gets tangled up
in Chad's lower intestine.

-Oh, sorry. Hi. Oh, hi.
-[Phoebe] Hey.

-Hello. How are you?
-Hi!

Hey.

[Chad] Perfect timing, right? Of course.

[Chad speaking quietly]

[laughing]

[Sydney] Did you have a good night?

Yeah. Yeah, I had a--

I had a fun night.

[Phoebe] Bro, it is cold as balls.

I'm getting a sweatshirt.

I need a sweatshirt.

Um… I did just kiss Chad.

Needed to put that out there.

I kinda just sat here and kissed him.

Okay. I love you.

I just, like, had to tell you
because that was really awkward.

And I just came--

-It was awkward.
-Yeah, exactly.

But I was like,

-I'm just gonna come back in.
-[Mackenzie] Good for you, though, girl.

Okay, thank you.

I'm gonna go shove grilled cheese
in my mouth.

-Cool, when you encounter it--
-[phone chiming]

[gasping]

-Who was it?
-I got a text!

[Islanders cheering]

Oh, sh*t.

[Deb] Oh, no.

"Islanders, the Hideaway is open tonight.

Please pick one couple
to spend a night alone together.

#GetARoom. #PullYourselvesTogether."

-Jess and Deb.
-Jess and Deb.

Yay!

Going into the Hideaway, man. I'm stoked.

Yeah!

It's '80s night.
You gonna get frisky and disky.

It's been a long time coming, you know.
We worked very hard

just figuring each other's
love language out, you know.

I think we've got that part down.

[Phoebe] You look so hot.

So I think now is the perfect time for us
to really get some time alone.

[Deb] Should I wear cuter shoes?

-[Mackenzie] Yes.
-[Deb] Crocs?

-[Deb] No.
-[Nadjha] Zeta wore heels.

I mean, I think it was time.

Like, we've been
on this long journey together.

We've grown so much.

I'm just, like-- I'm excited to see, like,

a sense of how each other operates
without the villagers. [chuckling]

-[knocking]
-[Deb chuckling]

Oh, you look so cute.
Oh, my God, the eye mask!

[Islanders] Yeah!

Damn, y'all look good.

[Islanders cheering]

-Whoa.
-Wow.

[Deb] This is so cool.

[Jesse] Wow.

You don't have to do--

[laughing]

Oh! Oh, sh*t.

[Deb shouting]

[laughing]

Damn.

Do you work in Vegas?

I'm so turned on right now.

Oh, my gosh.

[Phoebe] How are you feeling?

[Joel] I'm feeling good. How are you?

[narrator] After, like, kissing Chad,

Phoebe's, like,
pulling Joel for, like, a chat.

And while she doesn't, like,
really like Joel,

she, like, really,
really likes saying the word "like."

Like.

I tried to, like, have like,
a clean slate with everything.

And just like, really like,
give this a chance.

But there's just, like,
something that's just off.

-Okay.
-Like, just for me it's like,

I know when like, I like,
want to be touchy with someone.

Like I know, and like, I wanna
like, feel that way with someone.

And like,
I just don't feel that way with you.

-Okay.
-Like, I just like, feel more of like…

I really like talking to you, 'cause like,
you're just like an amazing person.

But I don't see it like,
getting to an intimate level.

Okay.

-You know?
-Yeah.

-I understand that.
-Okay.

-I love you, girl.
-Let's stand, let's stand.

I just had to like, say that.

Because I don't wanna like,
lead the situation on.

No. And I appreciate that.

We have really good conversations

and we laugh, but like,
the sexual intimacy part,

like, I just can't see myself
getting to an intimate level with him.

And Chad better be
out there right now ending it,

or saying to Mackenzie
that they're just friends,

so I can start cracking on.

[Joel] I hope things
with you and Chad really work out.

[Phoebe] We'll see.

[Chad sighing]

Um…

I know that, like,
Courtney was super physical.

Like, that was
her love language, basically.

And even Phoebe's, like, pretty forward.

And like, obviously,
as you can tell, I'm not that way.

Um, I don't want you to think
I'm any less interested in you

because I'm not like--

-Yeah.
-on top of you kind of thing.

No, I get--
No, I don't look at it that way at all.

-Yeah.
-I just go at my own pace sort of thing.

-Yeah.
-This was the first day that I think

I was actually kind of
looking at you and I was like,

"Oh," you know, like, "We're in a couple."

-It's kind of crazy.
-Yeah, it is crazy.

-Like, it's fun--
-It's fun, but it's crazy.

-Yeah.
-Yeah, no, I agree. It's like…

I do enjoy that we can be, like, fun.

-You know?
-Mm-hmm.

I mean, as of right now
it kinda still feels like

I don't know if like, I guess,
the romance part of it is there.

-Yeah. No, I agree.
-Yeah, like--

-I feel the same.
-Yeah.

It's kind of how
I've been feeling as well,

that I couldn't imagine, like,

-being coupled up with anyone else…
-Mm-hmm.

…at this point.
Like, with who all is in here.

And like,
I just have so much fun with you.

-Yeah.
-But I agree.

Like, I don't know that

-I'm feeling the romantic side of it.
-Yeah.

You know, you can really
connect with someone on a human level,

but it doesn't always mean
that there's a romantic connection.

And Phoebe said that,
you know, they kissed

and that she really feels
a spark with him.

And I'm really happy for them, you know?

I didn't--
I never wanted to force something

and, um, I think everything
has played out the way

that it was meant to play out.

But I also think
that people come into your life

for a reason sort of thing.

And I do feel like--

Regardless, I feel like there is, like--

Yeah, like, we're gaining something
from knowing one another.

Absolutely.

[Chad] It felt better just because
it was just the right thing to do.

You know, it's good to just put sh*t out
and just be as honest as possible

so people just
don't have to feel weird about sh*t.

Like, you can just--
like, I'm like, we're f*cking adults.

Like, it is what it is.
You know what I'm saying?

-You're the best.
-You are, honestly.

[Deb] What are you doing?

Geez Louise.

[Deb laughing]

[Jesse] Let's try to handcuff
each other blindfolded.

Are we both blindfolding?

-Both blindfolded.
-Okay.

All right.

How are we gonna do it at the same time?

[Jesse] It's gonna be tough.

Where are you?

I have to find you?

-[Deb laughing]
-Yeah. Got the cuffs.

-Come here, boy.
-[Jesse laughing]

-[Deb] Come here.
-[laughing]

Oh, I got one.

[both laughing]

-Another crazy day in Love Island.
-[Phoebe & Mackenzie] I know.

[Joel speaking quietly]

[speaking quietly]

I think they gonna have a great time.

I think they all gonna,
you know, expand they bond.

Seven. We almost b*at our record.

-You f*cked up.
-I'm sorry.

Would you give me a chance
if I walked in like this?

This is honestly not bad.

-Let's be real.
-[Sydney giggling]

I'm gonna pee myself.

[Chad] So, yay, nay?

Do I wanna sleep in
the bed with you? Yeah.

I'm gonna make you work.

You can work for me a little harder.

[Mackenzie] My God, you're so warm.

[Joel speaking quietly]

[narrator] Welcome back to
Love Island USA.

It's morning and there were
disgusting slapping noises

coming from under the duvet
in that Hideaway all night.

Deb and Jesse's game
of patty cake went on for hours.

[giggling]

-[Jesse] Hey, Deb.
-Morning.

[Jesse] How'd you sleep?

[Deb] Good. How'd you sleep?

[Jesse] Slept good.

[Deb speaking quietly]

[Sydney] Looking like you're ready
to conquer the day.

Always.

[Jesse] You look amazing.

Did you put your contacts in?

[chuckling]

I don't think--
I don't think they're working.

[laughing]

Can't wait for Deb to get back.

Right? And Jesse.

What a night.

[Deb] What a night.

Maybe we can do it again sometime?

-Yeah.
-Okay, cool.

Phoebe, did Chad not ask you
to sleep on the daybed?

-He did, but I said no.
-Oh, really?

I was like you need to work a little bit
harder to get into bed with me.

I didn't want it to be like, that easy.

-What are youse talking about?
-[Mackenzie] Uh, yeah.

Phoebe laid one on him
in the dressing room.

-[Zeta] Last night?
-[Mackenzie] Yeah.

And so then,
Chad and I friend-zoned each other.

[Nadjha] Dang.

So, Phoebe, would you say you and Chad
are like, going to keep it going?

Yeah, I'm gonna continue
to get to know him.

And see where that goes.

Mackenzie, I have a question.

Yeah.

What changed?

I just kept feeling
the same safe and comfortable,

but not like, excited.

-[Nadjha] Right.
-Or like, romantic.

And I just kept on like,
hoping that it would come,

and then it just wasn't.

And then I just kind of felt like,

"Oh, maybe I'm not really
feeling the romantic side

because of the situation with Courtney."

That's just something to be aware of.
Like, Chad has very much downplayed

his feelings towards you, Phoebe.

And I'm just being honest about that.

I think it's like,
a little unfair for you to say

that he downplayed his feelings towards me

because I don't think he's gonna tell you

while he's like, also friend-zoning you
and like, getting to know you

-exactly how he feels about me.
-Phoebe, he wasn't like,

friend zoning me, though.
We had a conversation.

You can't tell me
it's not fair what he did

-when you weren't in the conversation--
-I'm saying it's not fair for you

to sit in front of everyone and say,

"No offense, but he's downplaying
how he feels towards you."

How is that not fair, Phoebe?
I'm looking out for you.

Okay.

In front of me and Sydney,
he has-- and Jeff,

-he has said how much he likes Phoebe.
-No, I believe you.

And that's why I'm letting you know that
I would wanna know that to someone else,

he's not saying the same thing.

To the someone else
who he knows is interested in him,

he's not saying the same thing.

Yeah, but he didn't downplay
his feelings about Courtney.

[Phoebe] Okay.

-We're home!
-[Islanders] Hey!

[Islanders cheering]

-[Jesse] It was fantastic.
-[Deb] Fantastic.

Yeah. [chuckling]

We got to bond
away from the other Islanders.

You know, a successful prom night.

Yeah, you did say you were gonna
get to second base on prom night.

Yeah, I might have slid in.

-To second base.
-To second base.

-My God.
-Second base.

Bye.

[Islanders shouting]

I knew it. I knew it.

-She looks a mess. I knew it.
-[Isaiah] Jesse!

[Jeff] She looks a mess.

-Hi!
-Hi!

-Oh my God, chocolate.
-I brought snacks!

Gimme.

[Sydney] I didn't get any of this.

[Nadjha] Deb, how did it go?

[Deb] It was good. It was fun.

It was nice just to, like…

-Be alone. Yeah.
-[Zeta] Be away.

[Jeff] Let's talk about it.

When you walked in there was it, "Wow"?

Wow, wow!

[all laughing]

They got the snake print.

They got a pole right there.

Oh, sh*t.

So?

-So?
-There any juicy goss from last night?

I got my first kiss after prom.

-[Zeta] Shut up.
-[Mackenzie] Aw.

Best prom ever, huh?

Best prom ever, bro.

You know, there was like, a box in there,
bro, and I couldn't stop eating.

It was like a random box.

[laughing]

We made out and, like,

I don't know, it's just nice just to like
hang out by ourselves.

-Yeah.
-Did you get on the pole?

Jesse did.

[all laughing]

It was so funny.

Do you feel like y'all like,
grew your connection?

-Yeah.
-[Sydney] Yay!

-It was nice. We talked like, a lot.
-That's all that matters.

You guys just deserved it, you know?

-Like, you've been here so long.
-It was time.

It was time, that's what I was saying.

[narrator] Phoebe and Chad
are headed off for an audition

to be J. Lo's backup dancers.

But first she wants to clear the air
about what Mackenzie's been saying.

So, like, I need to ask you
what's going on because Mackenzie's like,

"I just think you need to be careful

because he's like, downplaying
how he feels towards you a lot

and I would just watch out for that
because if a guy that I was interested in

was going around the villa like,
kinda downplaying

how I feel or like,
my situation like, with me, like,

that's like, something I would just
like, keep an eye on."

What am I gonna go and f*cking do?
Tell her like,

"Oh, yeah, every time
I see Phoebe I wanna--"

Exactly. And Mackenzie was like,

"When he would about Courtney
he would really like, you know,

say how he feels, but like,
he doesn't do that with you, Phoebe."

That just pissed me off.
So, I do wanna know like, is there--

is there validity to what she's saying?

For one, I'm sorry that that had to--

-[Phoebe] Yeah.
-'Cause that is…

-So unnecessary.
-[Phoebe] So unnecessary.

-I didn't believe a second of it.
-Yeah.

[Chad] I just didn't like,
go into depths about…

-how I rock with you to Mackenzie.
-Yeah.

-That's literally all I was saying--
-[Phoebe] Which I wouldn't want you to.

Wouldn't that be weird?

-[Phoebe] That's what I'm saying.
-Telling her, "Oh my God, I'm f*cking--"

[Phoebe] I was like, "Watch out?
That's a good thing."

I'm pretty irritated by the comments
that Mackenzie made.

I think that was attractive how Phoebe
was able to speak up for herself

and kinda confront the situation
instead of just letting it pass by.

I would say the only validity
in that is literally just

me not going into deep, dark details
about my interest in you.

That would be the only validity in that.

[narrator] Ladies and gentlemen,

Love Island USA is proud to present,
“Phoebe Says Like", Part 2.

Okay, so I just really wanted to pull you

because I know like,
in the dressing room,

I like, kinda like, confronted you.

You said something about like, how like,

"I just want you to be careful
because like,

if a guy was going around
kinda downplaying how he felt about me,

like, that would
just be something that like--"

I'm just explaining my perspective

based on the way
he'd spoken about you to me.

I don't think that
you can speak to why Chad

didn't say more about you guys.

But I can. That's the thing.

Like, I know he's not that type of guy.

I don't think that Mackenzie
has known Chad long enough

to make any type
of conclusions or assumptions

or generalizations about his character.

Like, when someone
needs to bring someone else down

to maybe make them feel better,

because they got rejected or whatever,

or friend-zoned, I don't do that.

Like, I have known him
just genuinely longer.

But Phoebe,
you weren't sitting in our chats.

-And this is where like--
-I know, but I'm saying that like--

But Phoebe, you don't know everything.

You don't know everything.

You actually have come in here

and you literally think
that you know everything.

You think you know
all about Chad, but you don't.

From my perspective, it's disrespectful.

[Phoebe] I never said disrespect.

[Mackenzie] No,
you said you disrespected me.

[speaking quietly]

I just have this kiss and like,
I was telling the girls about it.

And then you kinda make me like,
take two steps back.

Nadjha asked me.

I'm telling you how I felt.

Why can't you also understand that?

I do understand how you feel, Phoebe.

But you're trying to make excuses for
"Nadjha asked me.

Nadjha did this." And I'm saying--

I'm not gonna be
att*cked by you like this.

I'm not attacking you, though.

-[Mackenzie] I was not--
-You're not listening to what I'm saying.

Nadjha asked me a question
and I answered it.

I don't feel as though
my actions or my words

are responsible
for how she might be feeling.

That's an ego thing.
Like, I'm not gonna rewrite history

and say that something
happened that didn't.

And I said that 'cause you were
saying it's disrespectful of you

-to bring this up in front of everyone.
-I did not say that, though.

Yes--

Okay.

[phone chiming]

I got a text!

[Islanders cheering]

-"Islanders…"
-Oh, no.

"It's time to find out the online buzz
around your relationships."

-Oh, sh*t!
-Oh, no!

"#JoinTheChat. #LetsFaceIt."

Damn.

-f*ck.
-Oh, sh*t.

All I've got to say
is we are not coming back

as one big happy family.

[narrator] Welcome back to
Love Island USA.

America, you've been Tweeting
about the show.

[Deb] I love Twitter!

[narrator] I've enjoyed
your messages for me.

Although Leon from Pittsburgh,

I will point out I've tried,

but it's not physically possible
for me to do that to myself.

Oh, you look hot.

[narrator] And now it's time
for the Islanders to find out

what America's been Tweeting about them
in today's challenge, "Let's Face It."

One at a time, couples will see
a Tweet about their fellow Islanders.

"Blank's flying first class,

while blank's in coach
'cause she's too good for him."

This about to get real.

[narrator] They will compete
to fill in the blank

with the person the Tweet is really about.

We said Mackenzie and Chad.

We said Jesse and Deb.

We said Sydney and Isaiah.

You know it could look like
she's been upset a few times.

And people may not necessarily
like to see that.

[narrator] Each correct answer
scores them a point.

Wow. All right, so…

-Zeta's flying first class…
-Knew it! I told you!

…while Timmy's in coach
'cause she's too good for him.

Damn!

I know it's meant to be a positive for me,
so I will take that.

However, he is my person.

And I don't wanna hear
anything bad about him.

So, he's in first class with me.

I like that it's that way.

Whoever wrote that Tweet,

I'm glad you got reception
in your mother's basement.

I'm really happy for you, bro.

Next Tweet. "Blank still has a thing
for blank and blank and blank

and blank and blank and blank."

[Joel speaking quietly]

Oh, it could be!

[speaking quietly]

[Timmy chuckling]

Okay, we went with Mackenzie.

We said, uh, Phoebe.

Mackenzie.

-And the Tweet reads, "Phoebe…
-I knew it!

-Bam!
-…still has a thing for Isaiah,

Joel, Chad, Jesse,

Jeff and Timmy.

I haven't had an easy journey
in here, you know.

I had a thing for Isaiah.
I had a thing for Chad.

And then I tried Joel.
And now I'm back with Chad.

Like, the people are gonna talk.
I thought it was funny.

"Blank, if you know your worth,
then why are you going back to a man

that tried to jump ship on you twice now?"

Who did that twice?

[speaking quietly]

Jesse did at the beginning.

Sydney, what'd you come up with?

Um, I said that's a good question.

Maybe I should ask myself that.

I also said myself.

Only because of how
I think it has been perceived

that Jesse tried to jump ship
with Val and then also Sereniti.

The full Tweet is…

"Sydney, if you know your worth, then why
are you going to jump back to a man

that tried to jump ship on you twice now?"

This just got really real.

[sighing]

[speaking quietly]

It was bad. I feel for them.

Okay, this Tweet says…

"Blank is faking
his strong feelings for blank,

he is not attracted to her
emotionally or physically.

No one can convince me that he is."

-That's harsh.
-Talk your sh*t.

[Nadjha] Is it you?

[Jeff] Maybe.

I think they talking
about Zay and Syd, for sure.

Jesse and Deborah.

We said the same thing.

We said Syd and Zay.

LMAO.

"Jesse is faking
his strong feelings for Deb."

-sh*t.
-"He is not attracted to her

emotionally or physically.

No one can convince me that he is."

[sighing]

Why you gotta be so harsh on Twitter?

Oh yeah, when was this data collected?
[laughing]

I knew Twitter was gonna be harsh.

You know, I didn't expect
nothing less from them.

All right. "Finally catching up
on #LoveIslandUSA

and it looks like blank and blank
are giving peanut butter and jelly vibes.

Fo sho a perfect match."

-[chuckling]
-Ah.

We went with Jeff and Nadjha.

We were biased.

We said us.

I mean, it's gotta be the truth, you know.

Looks like Joel and Mackenzie are giving
peanut butter and jelly vibes.

Fo sho a perfect match."

America, thank you.
That's really sweet and cute.

[Joel] She's the jelly,
I'm the peanut butter,

and I, you know, I seal
the edges of the sandwich together

to make it all one cohesive unit.
[chuckling]

[Zeta] "Blank is faking it with blank.

She is playing him for a fool."

We said Phoebe is playing Joel.

We also said Phoebe and Joel.

We wanna be wrong about this.

But we said ourselves.

Because, you know,
my head did turn in Casa Amor.

"Nadja is faking it with Jeff.

She is playing him for a fool."

[Jeff] I don't know
what happened at Casa Amor,

like, what she was doing and sh*t.

But obviously, it was enough
for her to bring somebody back.

Honestly, f*ck those Tweets.

[Timmy] Next Tweet.

This Tweet reads, "It would suck
for blank to find out blank

was comparing her
to blank's 'natural beauty'."

Oh, that is f*cked up.

I have no idea.

[Deb speaking quietly]

[Jesse speaking quietly]

-Really?
-Yeah.

Yeah, uh, Mackenzie. Chad. Phoebe.

You don't think I'm natural?

Just kidding.

Sydney, Isaiah and Phoebe.

Okay, we said it would suck
if Mackenzie found out

Chad was comparing her
to Phoebe's natural beauty.

g*dd*mn it.

Full Tweet reads,

"It would suck for…

Sydney…"

Damn.

…to find out Isaiah was comparing her
to Phoebe's 'natural beauty'."

Oh, my f*cking God, bro.

[Isaiah speaking quietly]

[Sydney] It's just a shitty feeling.

He didn't comfort me at all.
He was just defensive.

At the end of the day,
his actions in Casa Amor

is what is causing this, so…

It's just not a good look.

[Zeta] The winners of "Let's Face It" are…

Mackenzie and Chad!

[Islanders cheering]

[narrator] Thank you for the thousands
of Tweets about our Islanders.

Especially the thoughtful
and considerate ones.

We appreciated both of those.

Oh, my God.

[Isaiah] I'm kinda getting
f*cking pissed off.

We were in such a good spot,

and now sh*t gets brought up
from some bullshit Tweet.

And now we're not.

So back to f*cking square one again.

[narrator] Welcome back to
Love Island USA.

There's drama in the villa

'cause the public have been saying
mean things about our Islanders.

How dare they! That's my job.

[Phoebe] Fake relationship.

We're all in fake relationships,
apparently.

Man, I just can't believe America thinks
I'm just in a fake relationship.

-[laughing]
-That's wild.

Faking my emotional connection
and physical connection.

How can I do that for f*cking 37 days?

[laughing]

[Jesse] Blows my mind, bro.

[Isaiah groaning]

[Mackenzie] Syd, may I give you a hug?

Yeah, I don't want a lot of attention

-brought to this right now.
-[Mackenzie] I know, I know.

And I just don't appreciate the way
he handled it out there either.

For him to sit out there
and get annoyed at me.

[Zeta] Did he?

He was like, all pissed.

-No, it's not you, babe.
-[Nadjha] Sydney, it is not you.

He wasn't pissed at you.

-You know how emotional Isaiah is.
-[Deb] Yeah.

And hearing that
what he said has come out,

he is just feeling so uncomfortable
that that's how he acted.

It's not about him being pissed
about you at all.

[Deb] No, Syd.

[Zeta] Don't ever harbor that in at all.

-But I do understand why you are upset.
-I know, but it's just like…

[Zeta] I completely get you.

[Sydney] Did he f*cking say it?
Like, that's a low blow if he did that.

And I don't appreciate like,
the comparing.

Like, that's f*cked.

I'm gonna have to look back
on my experience in here

being compared to other girls.

Like, what the f*ck?

That's what I'm internally
dealing with right now.

[Zeta] I do get you.

But he does rate you so much.

And he is extremely attracted to you.

No boy who is not attracted to a girl

-acts the way he acts with you.
-[Nadjha] Mm-hmm.

The boy cannot keep his hands off of you.

So, you will get over it.

[Nadjha] He never said that to you?

Comparing me?

Comparing our beauty? No.

Not to me.

[Nadjha] I really wanna know, like--

[Phoebe] Which boy here knows.

Oh, one of the boys here knows, for sure.

[Phoebe] I think Jeff might know,
to be completely honest.

-He did--
-Jeff is a huge cheerleader for me.

Jeff was like--

I remember Jeff telling me that
he was like, to Isaiah, "Yo, she's it."

She's one of a kind."
Like, sh*t like that.

So, maybe Jeff
was in on that conversation.

[Nadjha] Jeff, come here.

-We have a question.
-[Jeff] What?

-We have a question.
-[Jeff] What?

Did this conversation
between you and Isaiah,

or Isaiah and the boys ever come about?

-What you mean?
-[Phoebe] About like,

-the naturally pretty…
-About the natural beauty thing.

Don't lie to me.

It did. Jeff does know.

He probably mentioned it to me.

-He mentioned it to you?
-I think so.

I just feel like he was in the moment,
saying that sh*t.

You know what I mean? Um…

He was just on a high
'cause he had met somebody.

He met a new romantic relation--
or connection with.

But, you know, he went--

he came back down from that high
and realized "That's not what I want."

[Nadjha] So he just was like,

"I just think Phoebe's
more naturally pretty than Sydney"?

I don't think it was like that.

But I don't know.
I honestly don't remember.

But it had to be. She in there f*cked up?

If you're saying stuff here,
just own up to it.

'Cause you know
it's gonna come out eventually.

I feel for Sydney, honestly.

Yeah, she's not okay.

Damn, man.

[narrator] Hit us up on the socials and
use the #LoveIslandUSA to join the convo

and indulge your obsession
with the Love Island USA app.

You can vote, see exclusive previews,
and sample the hottest tea.

Plus, get your mitts on a load of merch.

I bought 27 personalized water bottles.

One for each of my children.

Get involved, America.

[narrator] As the Islanders
prepare for the evening,

Isaiah's going through
his nightly routine.

Exfoliating scrub, cleanser,
toner, Ph balance cream,

anti-aging formula, eye bag serum,
neck wrinkle balm and hair wax.

He's such a fan of natural beauty.

[Sydney] Ugh, what do I wear?

[Jeff] You talk to her yet?

[Isaiah] About who?

-Syd.
-No.

I don't even remember
what the f*ck I said.

I don't even remember.

It's just really shitty that
it's this late in the experience

and I did come here to find love.

[Isaiah] Do you know what it be?

I don't remember you saying anything
like, to that nature.

I probably just said some sh*t
in the spur of the moment, bro.

-I don't remember.
-[Joel] If sh*t goes south,

we're here and we got your back.
If you need to talk, whatever.

You're not alone in this, all right?

I'm just trying to figure out for myself

if there is anything that he can do
that will make this better.

So, if he did mean it
exactly how it sounded

but he says, like, you obviously
are the most beautiful girl--

To be honest,
it's just gonna have to depend

on how this next conversation
with him goes.

It will either go
really good or really bad.

Like, if it doesn't go so well, like,
I do see myself like, not being with him.

[Mackenzie] Cheers to all of
the hot girls here,

to the guys that are dressed,
mm, kinda nice tonight.

And cheers to Zeta
hopefully bringing us all to first class.

-[Islanders cheering]
-Yeah!

Okay, I'm sorry, you guys all look great.

[Islanders chuckling]

Come on, we gon' talk
about this sh*t, bro.

[Jeff] Tell me how you feeling right now.
What's in your heart right now?

Obviously, I feel like what was said was--

I was, you know, a little bit into Phoebe.

So, I must've said some sh*t

-in the spur of the moment.
-You must have said some sh*t.

-So, I don't really--
-Right. Remember.

-Yeah.
-Or recall it--

It must not have been that important.

Right. I feel that.

Jeff was like, my cheerleader
throughout all of Casa Amor,

so I felt like he might know something
about what was said.

I just asked him, I was like,
"So, was something brought up

about like, natural beauty?"

He really didn't tell me specifics.

So therefore, I can't tell you like,
"Isaiah said this."

-But it was said.
-Told us how he like, mentioned it.

Yeah. He did say that.

Isaiah did mention it.

What you feel like you should do
in this situation?

Just tell her that my feelings
are super genuine for her.

Ultimately, just man the f*ck up
and tell her that I'm sorry

about the sh*t that had happened.

We human, bro. We do sh*t.

And we make decisions
and say sh*t that we don't mean.

And I feel like
y'all can get past the sh*t.

I don't think
I wanna talk to him right now.

I know it f*cking sucks.

I don't even wanna hear
what he has to say.

Like, I don't wanna look at him. Like…

I'm gonna go over here.

Damn, she just walked away.

I don't know, man.

[sighing]

-f*ck.
-Bro, we gon' have to--

You gon' have to talk to her, bro.
It's bad.

[Isaiah] I do feel like a piece of sh*t.

Obviously, you know,
if I could take it back, I would.

So, I need to figure all this out

because I really do--
really do care about her.

[Zeta] I'll be back.

[sobbing]

[Sydney] He should've told me everything
that I should've expected to hear.

He probably didn't even realize
he said something.

Yeah, I think it really was
just so in passing.

[Zeta] Just know you are
going to get through this.

I've been so good to him.

[Zeta] You have.

[Sydney sobbing]

You've been more
than understanding with him.

What happened with Isaiah,

comparing me and Phoebe's physical looks--

I'm extremely hurt by this.

We'll see if I can get past this.

Jesus. You can cut the tension
with a f*cking--

What is it? What's the saying? Kn*fe?

-Scissors.
-Scissors.

[narrator] Welcome back to
Love Island USA.

Phoebe's pulled Chad for a chat.

Now we were hoping to make
"Phoebe Says Like" a trilogy.

But it's not happening.

She wanted far too much money,
plus 30% of the merch.

So…

Jesus.

Is she alright?

-Yeah.
-Is she?

No.

-I actually have a question for you.
-Mm?

Do you remember this comment he made?

I wasn't--

This was like, a boy-boy conversation.

There was no way
he would have said to me like,

"Oh, you're more naturally pretty
than Sydney."

Truth's hard to hear sometimes,

but all we have to do is deal
with our problems head-on.

And I think that that is what has allowed

all the relationships
within this villa to grow

to the strength that they have grown to.

-At the end of the day…
-I think it's more--

You gotta take
all this sh*t on the chin, though.

I was about to say like,
it's all about how he reacts to this.

I feel really shitty because I'm like--

A part of the story, yeah.

[Phoebe] I can't get away from
this f*cking drama.

And I don't know
if there's coming back from this.

-[Mackenzie] Hey.
-[Joel] Hey.

[Mackenzie] How's it going?

-[Jeff] Chillin'.
-[Nadjha] It's going.

Do you know anything
that can be related to it?

-[Mackenzie] Huh?
-Anything that was said with that Tweet.

I honestly like, I coul--

like I said,
I couldn't remember what was said.

But I think it's not necessarily about--

Like, at this point I think
it's just about how it made Sydney feel.

-And I think that's what's most important.
-No, I know.

It's terrible how it's making Sydney feel.
But I just didn't--

It wasn't about me, so I didn't register
in the moment, you know?

I know it's terrible. I don't…

It is just really hard as a woman
feeling like that's what men see us as.

Is something unnatural.

I can't speak to how you meant it,
you know?

But like, we hear that and it's like,

but we are natural and like…

It just is-- It's a hurt--
It feels very derogatory,

-you know?
-I know, I'm telling you

I tell her she's beautiful
at least 50 times a day.

-I know.
-I don't-- I just don't--

It's what pisses me off the most.
I just don't understand.

I know, but Isaiah like,
I'm just trying to explain.

This is the kind of thing
that if you talk about the woman--

like, you don't ask a woman's weight.

Like, talking about
if she's natural or not natural

is probably not something
you should necessarily comment on.

Another thing that upset her was that
you kind of, I guess, got defensive…

when she got upset in the challenge.

I think that was kind of a moment
where you should have just been like,

"f*ck. Like, I'm so sorry.
I don't know if I said that.

We can talk about it later."

And I think the fact you got
a little defensive on her

made her even more upset.

-You know?
-Yeah. I can understand that.

I feel like it's super important
to clear stuff up to Sydney.

Taking accountability.

This situation is honestly
important for my realization.

But I don't mean to put her
in those predicaments, in those spots.

'Cause I mean look at how
Sydney reacted when they were like,

saying all the comments about you.

She was like-- she was backing you.
And really like, supporting you.

And I think even though it's not like
you were throwing her under the bus,

it's like, I think she just wanted
to feel that same support from you.

In that moment,
it mattered a little more to you.

It seemed like, by reacting that way,

it mattered more how you were feeling
instead of how she was feeling.

It's all in the reaction, you know?

[narrator] Isaiah's natural beauty
comments have left Sydney in tears.

And Isaiah looking like
a naughty schoolboy

who's been told to sit outside
the headmaster's office.

Hands out your pockets, son.

[Nadjha] Dude, Sydney is not okay.

I just feel bad for him.

[Nadjha] I don't really feel
that bad for him.

I feel bad for Sydney.

[Jeff] I feel that. It just sucks, man.

They was doing so good.

I'm rooting for them because
I know she really likes him,

and I know he really likes her.

-So, of course--
-Yeah. Obviously, you can tell.

-Yeah, like, I want what's best for them.
-Yeah.

But he did f*ck up.

Yeah, you can't be
making mistakes like that.

[Nadjha] He literally looks like a sad--

[Jeff] He about to talk to her.
He about to talk to her.

-Wanna go on the balcony?
-[Sydney] Hm?

-Wanna go on the balcony?
-[Sydney] Sure.

[sighing]

I just don't know how to like,
go forward.
