[bunniefuu]

-Last night
on "Love Island USA"...

- Vegas came calling...

- one couple
talked things out...

-It's more serious kissing
in front of other people.

-Telling me again is not gonna
make me understand again.

-Is that, like, a deal breaker
for you?

-If it was a deal breaker,
I would've ended it already.

-Right.

-Our plan is working.

Aah!

-"Islanders, please choose
one couple

to spend a private night
together."

-Chelley and Ace!

- another locked in
at the Hideaway...

- sh*t.
- Welcome.

-"Will you be exclusive
to only each other,

Chelley Evelyn Bissainthe?"

-Yes!
Of course!

-Tonight...

- Aah!
- My... No!

You're f*cking lying!

- it's time to meet the parents.

-You guys!

-Aww!

- f*ck. It got me.
- It got me.

America's vote is in...

-Whoa.

"The couple
with the fewest votes

will be dumped from the island
tonight."

What?!

- and the final four
are revealed.

-What the f*ck?!

-And then it's over to you

to vote for the winners
of "Love Island USA" 2025.

-Welcome to "Love Island USA."

Hot off the press...
we've got an exclusive!

Chelley and Ace are exclusive!
I mean, literally.

They won't let anyone else
in the Hideaway.

Come on, guys.
I've brought Monopoly!

-So cheers to exclusive.

-Cheers to exclusive.

-In the Villa world
and the real world.

-Yeah.

Got me cheesin' hard as sh*t
right now.

-I would rate this day
a ten out of ten.

I'm telling you.

-You trying the
"Lady and the tr*mp" this thing?

- You want to?
- Yeah.

Come on, yo.
- Okay.

-As the islanders
get ready for bed,

I'm playing Monopoly on my own.

I knew I should
have packed my ball pit.

- My God.
- Chelley and Ace probably

gettin' it in right now.
- Aah! I'm so excited.

- sh*t.
- It's time to play.

-I was so pissed
when we were walking,

and this b*tch was like,
"I need to wash my hands."

I'm like,
"What the f*ck do I say?"

-I was like...
My brain was like, "Damn.

Why is she asking me
to go to the dock

when she knows
she's about to take a sh*t?"

-b*tch, you made me
f*cking tie this sh*t

like you're back in 1920s.

So you're not mad at me?

I was like, "Wait.
I hope she's not mad at me."

-No. Of course
I'm not mad at you.

-You think Ace folding
right now?

-That boy in chapter five
right now.

-Today is
Family and Friends Day,

thanks to Coffee-Mate.

-I get to see my mom and dad!

It's Family Day!

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay!

I think it's gonna be,
like, a FaceTime call.

- It's a video.
- My God!

-Should I get a jacket?

-Wait.
Should we put on a shirt?

My God.

-He's "mommy's little meatball."

- My eyes are watering.
- You started crying?

Aww, Nic!

-I miss the fam.

-I know, man.
I know.

-You ready?
Yeah?

Wait.

-Ace and Chelley,
come out here right now!

-It's Family Day!

-Don't drop me.

-It's Family Day!

-This is, like, the first time
anybody has met my parents.

- I know. I know.
- Like...

- Really?
- Anybody.

- First girlfriend?
- Yeah.

-Wake up and smell the coffee!

-Ace has had
an amazing 24 hours.

He's closed off with Chelley.

He's about to see his family.

I mean, he's a bit worried
there's not enough Coffee-Mate,

but otherwise it's perfect!

-Wait for it. Wait for it.
Wait for it.

Wait for it. Wait for it.
Too close.

Wait for it.
Wait for it.

Not yet.
Wait for it. Wait for it.

Just wait.

Just wait.
Wait.

Wait. Alright.

So what the f*ck happened?

-So, what happened was we
walk in through the Hideaway,

then, you know,
we got ready for the Jacuzzi.

While she was getting ready
for the Jacuzzi,

I just drew, like,
a big-a*s heart in the sand.

And then that's
when I had asked her, like,

"Do you want to
be exclusive with me?"

And it went well.

I was... I was just happy
waking up this morning.

- You seem happy, bro.
- You slept good last night.

-Yeah, I did.

But also just pure happiness,
honestly. Like...

Excuse me?

- What did you say?
- A blissful happiness?

-A blissful happiness.
I didn't hear you.

-I went to bed.
And I didn't fold.

- You didn't?
- I didn't fold.

Hands?

Hands anywhere?

Obviously, hands go everywhere.

-Last night was actually so fun.

Like, he did a big heart

and then put "A plus C"
inside of it,

and it was so cute.

And I was like,
"Aww. This is so cute."

And then he... Basically
he was just telling me.

He's like, you know,
"I've been working on this.

I wrote you a poem."

So he starts reading
the poem and stuff and...

- That is too f*cking cute.
- That's really cute, Chelley.

-So he was just, like, recit...
reading the poem to me.

He's like, "So will you
be exclusive with me?"

Like, it was such a great poem.
- I love that for you guys.

-I'm so happy
that things happened naturally

because it was just
organic and natural.

-I was like, "Yes."
I felt like he was proposing.

I was like, "Yes!
What do you mean?"

I'm like, "About time. sh*t."
Like...

- Girl, like, damn.
- I was waiting!

-Thought you'd never ask!

Finally!
You're freaking exclusive!

We've been waiting since,
like, the f*cking beginning!

We gotta lock this sh*t in!

- Aww.
- I love that for you guys.

-Anybody nervous about
meeting their girl's people?

- Hell yeah.
- Hell no.

- Yeah.
- For sure.

-My mom is so sweet.

She's... Like, any girl...
I could bring home anybody.

And she'll be like... She'll
be friends with her. Yeah.

-I don't know, bro.
That's a good question.

Honestly, if I had the choice,
I'd probably say no.

Just 'cause my mom
and my sisters,

they can be
a little harsh and real.

And I don't think

that would be good, like,
first... You know what I mean?

You don't want to
put her in that fire?

-I don't even wanna...
Yeah, bro.

-I'm so scared
of them meeting him.

I feel like me and him haven't
known each other that long.

Like, I have no idea
what they're gonna say at all.

I'm more scared
about meeting his family,

if I'm being completely honest
with you.

-I wonder what my parents
are gonna think about Pepe.

-They're gonna love him.
He's such a gentleman.

-I feel like my mom
is just gonna grill Bryan,

so he better have
barbecue sauce ready.

-Introducing your partner to
your family is always daunting,

but even more so
when there's an outside chance

your aunt might start singing

- I'm gonna cry.
- No, you don't have to cry.

-I feel like I'm gonna cry.

-You probably will.
You're a little crybaby.

-Aww. It's been a long time.

- You nervous?
- No. I'm excited.

I don't care
about what anybody thinks,

but I really do value
my mom's opinion a lot.

-Yeah. For sure.

-Hey, Amaya!

- Baby girl!
- Amaya, is that you?

-Bryan! Bryan! Bryan!

-Hi! Hi!

Ma, do you see me?!

- Yeah, we see you.
- Of course, I see you, baby!

-Ma! Ma!

Ma and Nick, this is Bryan!

-That's my dad.

And that's my best friend,
Brian, right there.

- Hi!
- Same name.

Hi, Bryan!

- How you doing?
- Hi, Bryan.

-How do we look together?

- My God. You look so good.
- Amazing!

-You guys look good.
You guys look good together.

-You guys were meant
to be with each other.

-Damn. This is crazy.

-I'm happy for you guys.

- My God!
- Ma, I miss you so much!

Thinking about you guys
every single night, and I...

-N-o-o-o-o!

God.

-Damn. That's so crazy.

- Do I look like my mom?
- Your mom's hella pretty. Yeah.

-Thank you. Thank you.

-Yo!

-I feel like those
military videos on TikTok...

where they come back
to their kids after a month.

-I don't remember
the last time I cried,

and I can't even describe
how f*cking happy I am.

I seen my dad
and my best friend.

I'm sorry.

- I miss you so much.
- I miss you more!

I love you so much, Ma.

Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

I'm crying...
not because of Family Day,

but Amaya's stepdad
looks so much better than me

in a crocheted vest!

I'm off to the gym after this.

- Nice to meet you. Hi!
- This is my dad.

- Chelley. Yes.
- What's up, bro? How's it going?

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

-How you doing, man?
Nice to meet you.

- Am I making you proud?
- Hell yeah.

- Yes?
- Yeah.

- Standing up for myself.
- I know.

-It was so nice
to meet you guys.

-Nice to meet you guys.

- My God.
- Bro!

- Isn't this crazy?
- I know!

-Damn.
That's wicked, bro.

-Amaya looks just like
her mom, too.

- Yeah.
- Like, you can see it.

-Okay, this is my lovely mother,
Meg,

and my amazing stepfather, Nick.

- Nice meeting you, Bryan.
- Nice to meet you. Bryan.

- Nice to meet you, Bryan.
- Nice meeting you.

- This is my dad.
- Nice to meet you.

-Dad, Amaya.
This is, like, my brother.

- Hi. Nice to meet you.
- Pleasure.

- Do we make a cute couple?
- Yeah. Of course.

-You look better in person.

- sh*t.
- This sh*t feels crazy.

- Wow.
- You get caught by surprise?

-Yeah.
I didn't expect that.

-Bryan, your mom,
she watches every night.

She misses you. She loves you.
She's so proud of you. Yes.

And... Yeah.
- She wanted to be here, bro.

- Yeah.
- Aww, Bryan.

-You guys are k*lling it,
though.

Super.

-This is like a family reunion
right now for everybody.

And we all up here in the Villa!

-Wait. So, what's your favorite
moment of Bryan and I

from the whole show so far?

-My favorite moment, when Bryan
is giving you some feedback

about you and Bryan is too bad
for you.

And that's exactly what I said.
"Okay. That's my boy."

- Yeah!
- I was so happy

when you stood up
and you said something

about, you know,
the Latino culture.

And I was like,
"Wow. That's amazing."

- Yeah.
- Bro, you actually got

my heart right there.

-My favorite moment
was the coupling itself.

It was, like, all
the distractions left,

and it was finally
you guys together.

In the Hideaway?

- Yeah.
- You guys saw that?!

-There were some times
that I had to go like this.

- My God!
- I'm sorry!

-I was like, "I'm gonna
go get coffee right now."

-I'm so happy for, like,
Bryan and Amaya. It's so cool.

- My God.
- I'm gonna cry.

I don't know
how Amaya's not crying.

- Hey! Nestlé!
- This is so fancy!

-Ooh!
Look at all of this!

- No way.
- Wow!

- This looks good.
- My God!

Like, you don't understand
how much I missed you.

- I know, mija.
- How's Daddy?

-Your daddy's doing well.
He's proud of you.

- Yes?
- Yes.

- You mean that?
- Yes, I mean it!

-How do you guys
feel about everything?

-Amaya. I mean, I see how she
couples with you really well.

I really like it a lot.

-You guys are very compatible
with each other.

And she has
a very nurturing vibe to her.

Hell yeah, and that's,
like, super important to me

just 'cause Mom's been
like that my whole life

where it's, like, super
nurturing and she's like that.

-The first thing that your mom
would say was, like,

"We love her eyes and also her
emotion, how emotional she is."

She's not afraid
of showing her emotions.

-That was the biggest thing for
me, just 'cause it was like...

- And you need that in your life.
- Yeah!

- That reality, you know?
- Yeah.

-What do you think
moving forward, bro? Like...

-Bro, she's right there
in New York,

and then obviously
she's hella cool,

and we're just gonna keep
taking steps pretty much, bro,

see where it goes.
- Yeah. I seen that.

-I can see that flourishing
outside of this.

-Yeah.

-What do you guys think
of Bryan?

- I think he's awesome for you.
- Yeah.

-I think you guys fit well
with each other.

You know, he accepts you
for who you are...

- Who I am.
- and you don't
need to hide anything.

- Anything for him!
- Or change yourself
for anything.

- Yeah.
- I just feel like I could

just be myself around him.
- No, which is good.

That's exactly what you
need to do. Just be yourself.

I'm so proud of you because,
you know, there were moments

where you were sad,
and then seeing you crying,

it just got me crying, too,

'cause I just want nobody
to, like, you know...

The way they were treating you,
I didn't appreciate it.

You stood up for yourself.
- I always stood up
for myself.

-And you were like,
"This is who I am.

And if you don't
want to be with me,

then it is what it is."
- You don't have to be with me.

I'm making you proud?
- Yes. Of course.

- You promise?
- Of course!

- You pinkie promise?
- I pinkie promise.

You're k*lling it. Don't let
anyone ever dim that light.

-I'm, like,
really, really happy.

I miss you guys so much.

-So, there's more... There's
another surprise for you.

I want to show you here.
So...

-Love you. See you soon.
Say hi to Amaya.

Okay?
Love you.

-Yeah.

- Aww!
- Aww!

- f*ck. It got me.
- It got me.

-Did you like Mom's message,
then?

Yeah.

-Yeah.

sh*t.

-I am so happy to be here.

- Appreciate you, Dad.
- Yeah.

-My dawg.

My mom's my best friend,
and that video meant everything.

Just seeing her face
and hearing her

and, knowing she's proud
and everything

just meant the world for me.

-Can we take a picture with you?

Great!

- You got it?
- Great.

- Bend down...
- Like that.

- Man. I got to bend bend.
- Yeah.

-Bryan's family
meeting my family,

I feel like it brought us
so much closer.

I mean, it just went so natural.

It felt like we've been together
forever in such a good way.

Like, this is crazy.

-Ma.

I know.

I know, Ma.
I know.

I miss you more.

-We plan on everything,
seeing you guys again.

- No. Of course.
- Thank you for raising

such an amazing son.

- No. Thank you for...
- Tell Mommy I said hello.

Okay?
- We saw video that she...

his mom is saying,
"Say hi to Amaya."

- Yeah.
- I cannot wait to meet her.

-Thank you so much.
Love you.

-I love you.

-I look forward
to continue this...

- Yes, outside of...
- after the show.

- I love you guys!
- We love you guys!

-I love you, Mom!

Amaya Papaya and Bryan!

Bye, guys!
- I'll see you soon, bro.

Love.
- Aww!

-Wow.
That's so f*cking crazy.

I'm happy that our family met!
- Yeah, I know.

Babe!

That felt great!
- How was that?

-Dude, so happy for you, bro.

-Thank you, bro.
I cried like a little girl.

-No. You cried like a man
like you're supposed to.

-That was amazing, man.

-My mom, she sent a video
of her just sending me a video.

- Aww.
- That shocked me.

-Bryan and I, we always say that

when it comes down
to outsiders' opinions,

we're very strong and grounded.
- Yeah.

-We don't care about what people
have to say, besides our family.

So the fact that our family
is supporting us

and loved us for us is...

I mean, our heart is just full.
- Yeah.

-She started crying
'cause she's like,

"Every time you would cry,
I would cry."

But she was like...
She knows that that's

just the way I express myself.

And when she started crying,

I'm like, "Ma, you see
where I get it from?!"

- No. For real.
- "You see where I get it from?

- "It's you!"
- It's you!"

- Hi. How are you?
- How are you?

- I'm Ruby, Iris' sister.
- Nice to meet you.

- Hi.
- This is Iris' sister.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.

-Are you excited?
-I'm so excited.
I'm a little nervous.

-Up next is
Iris and Pepe's family.

And we have Iris' mom, Aileen,
and sister, Ruby,

and Pepe's mom, Erika,
and dad, Jose.

And I don't know
what their jobs are,

but I'm guessing
they're all J.Crew models.

Shh.

-That looks like Iris.

- Wait.
- Whose parents is that?

This m*therf*cker.

- My God!
- Hi!

- So nice to meet you!
- Don't cry.

My God! You guys!

- Erika's crying.
- 'Cause we miss you!

- My God!
- I miss you guys!

- Yay!
- How are you doing?

- Hi.
- Nice to meet you. Ruby.

-Nice to meet you, Ruby.
How are you doing?

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

-Hi!

- So nice to meet you!
- Nice to meet you!

My God. You look
exactly like each other.

Wow!
- He looks like Mom, yes.

- Wow!
- My God.

I did feel, like, in shock,
and I thought I was gonna cry,

but I was just so excited to
just hug them and talk to them,

just spend time with them,
as much time as I can.

This is our dressing room.

- Marvelous.
- This is where I get ready.

-This is so cute.

- How cute!
- Sit.

- So, spill the tea.
- So, spill the tea.

Wait. We're right above...
Can they hear us?

- No.
- So tell us about Iris.

-Iris is cool.

- She's a badass girl.
- Yeah. She's a badass girl.

-But you guys seem to have
a very good connection together,

so that's great.
- Yeah. No. She's awesome.

-You actually make
a good couple.

- Thank you.
- Not because of you.

It's because of her.
- Yeah, I figured you'd say that.

-You know, I saw it
from the very beginning.

I saw the two of you.
For some reason,

I'm like,
"I like her. I like her."

I like the two of you together.

-She's beautiful,
and she's got her sh*t together.

Yeah. I was like...
- A lot in common.

-Well, that's...
You know, it's pretty cool.

-How do you feel about Pepe?
Yeah.

-I think he's very mature.

And he's very sensible.

And he's...
He's like a man, you know?

-He's, like, someone who's
gonna, like, take care of you.

-Yeah. He was, like, my friend
coming in here.

And then we've grown,
like, a relationship.

- Right.
- You know?

-Here's the thing.

I was sad when everything
happened with TJ, but I'm...

I'm glad to see that you
are happy with Pepe.

-Yeah. I'm happy.

-And I'm excited
to see where it goes, too.

- Yeah.
- Yeah? You like Pepe? You?

-You know, I'm picky,
but you know me.

I just want you to be happy.

I want you to be
with somebody who...

just makes you feel good,
you know,

and makes you feel loved
and knows your value.

Because it's just, like,
I'm so proud of you and...

-Aww. Thank you.

-You have held yourself so high,

and you're such a lady,
and everyone loves you.

Everyone's so proud.
Dad is so proud.

-Mom, you're gonna
make me cry, too.

-She's actually...
I feel like she's become,

like, more of a woman.

She's just so graceful
and mature.

And I couldn't be
any more happier.

-Do you guys talk about, like,
when you guys get out of here?

Do you guys have any plans?

-Her dad lives, um,
next to Grandpa, very close.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Yeah, very close to Grandpa.

So we'll go back.
We'll hang out.

We'll keep getting
to know each other,

but, like,
in the real world now.

-I'm proud.
I'm proud.

You've stayed very real
to yourself.

And I love that.

So I'm very, very proud
of you, son.

Proud mama.

-Hearing that is great,
hearing that they have

the same opinions on the girl
that I'm interested in.

It's one of those things
that you can't beat

that feeling of your parents
being proud of you.

- Mom, sit.
- Mom, sit?

-And then you and I go this way.

-I don't think
this is gonna work for me.

-Today has been really special.

I feel really happy.

I really needed a hug
from my mom and my sister.

-Such a pleasure to meet you.

-You too.
Take care of my girl.

- I will.
- Have a safe flight back.

-You guys make such
a sweet, cute couple.

- Aww. Thank you!
- Look at them.

- Bye!
- Bye!

-Every day just keeps getting
better and better in here.

It was the best day
I've had in here so far.

That was great.
- Wow. Wow.

- That was crazy.
- Yeah.

-How about your mom?
What did your sister think?

-They were just, like,
really proud of me.

All just really good things,
you know?

-My mom said... I don't know.

She was like, "When I saw you
two together talking..."

the first time when
we walked in, she was like,

"I don't know.
I can see something there."

Really? - Yeah.

So I was like, "Curious. Interesting."

-Your parents are so...
Your mom is so beautiful.

- Yeah, I get that a lot.
- Yeah. Yeah.

-My dad was like, "What do
you think, like, after this?"

And I was like, "After this,
it's continue with it,

you know,
and see where it goes."

- Yeah.
- It was nice.

-Knowing that Pepe's family
likes me

and my sister and my mom
like Pepe,

I feel like
that's a really nice feeling.

So I do feel like
it's brought us closer together.

-I'm happy
they think you're cool.

- Yeah.
- 'Cause you're
kinda cool, I guess.

-That was fun.

-Yeah.

-Chris, you mad quiet.
What are you thinking about?

You just tired?
- I'm just stressin'.

- Stressin' why?
- He's waiting on his turn.

- I don't know why.
- Chris is stressed out.

- I'm just hella...
- I ain't gonna lie.

I was anxious, too,
before my parents.

-I'm just emotional as f*ck,
and when I get like this,

I just get quiet and just...

Yeah, I know.

-What do you feel like
you're stressed about, though?

-Just seeing my people.

It's mostly just about, like,
what they're gonna say
and sh*t like that.

-Yeah, you just want
to make sure that you're
making them proud.

- Right. Of course. So...
- Yeah.

-And they've known you
for 27 years

or whatever it is, right?

-It's what they're putting out.
Like, they know you.

-Yeah. That's right.

-They're just happy to be here
and see you. That's all.

-Yeah.

-I am anxious about
what my mom and my sister

are going to say.

I think it's just too soon
to introduce Huda to my family.

Um, you know, we're still
getting to know each other

and still building
our connection.

- Don't worry.
- I gotta get out of my head.

My bad, y'all.
- Yeah.

-I don't mean to make it seem
like I'm, like, mad or anything.

- No. You're good.
- A hundred percent.

I just wanted to check in.
You know?

-I appreciate you.

-Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

Now it's time to meet
Ace and Chelley's loved ones.

- I'm Ace's brother, Allex.
- I'm Evans, Chelley's dad.

- My gosh. ShaMya.
- ShaMya.

Hi. I'm Ace's big sister.
- Big sister.

-Yes, yes, yes.
So excited for them.

It's my favorite couple.

-I'm ready to go up in there and
just hug my daughter right now.

- Absolutely.
- All right.

-On the way into the Villa
are Chelley's dad, Evans,

and mom, Marie, and Ace's
brother Allex and sister ShaMya.

It's hard keeping track
of all these names.

Have you thought about getting
them tattooed on your backs?

My God!

I'm so proud of you!

-How are you?

-I miss you so much, man.

-You did a wonderful job
in raising your daughter.

This is my mom. This is my dad.
- How you doing?

- I love you guys together.
- You look so gorgeous.

-I see where she gets
her good looks.

-How you doing, man?
Nice to meet you.

-Hi, beautiful.

-Hi, Chelley girl!
Hey!

-Hi. It's so nice to meet you.
You look stunning. Yes.

I just ran to them.
That's all I could do.

Especially my mother.
Like, I miss her so much.

So to actually see her
in the flesh,

in a place I've been calling
home for the past two months

was just like, wow.

I can't even find the word.
I was just happy.

My gosh.
This is so crazy.

-No, you guys are brave.
It's a lot.

It's like the whole world
is looking at you.

- Yeah.
- I'm at work...

- Yeah.
- Every day.

- I'm taking care
of my patients.

I have my co-workers like this.

"Marie, you're missing it."
I'm like, "But this patient..."

- Right.
- But they're like...

- She coded.
- Right? She's coding.

Right.

-I'm not gonna toot my horn,
but Team Chell-Ace, for sure.

- We like Team Chell-Ace.
- Okay, well, let's hit it.

Let's hit it.
Let's hit it.

I think when you guys did have,
like,

somewhat of a challenge
or a disagreement, for me,

that's when I was like,
"yeah, they're dope."

And I think it's because you
guys kept it very respectful.

-I never heard you raise
your voice.

How do you stay so calm?
- Dealing with sisters.

- Yeah.
- She raised you right.

Right.

-And I love the way
you look at her.

-I was like, "Ooh, he likes her.
Ooh!"

-Ace has never introduced
a girl into his family before.

- Ooh.
- Massive deal.

-Yeah. Massive deal.

-You know, last night,
me and Chelley,

you know, we went to,
you know, an exclusive area.

- The Hideaway.
- Okay.

-And, you know, I asked her

if she wanted to be exclusive
with me.

-Yay!

-I was like, "About time.
Damn!

Like, you know,
I've been waiting."

I seen everybody getting
their moments and stuff.

Like, I love it. I'm happy.
But, no, it was...

I was like, "Wow."

- His time, when he was ready.
- Of course.

-The way he looks at her,
the way she looks at him,

it's like they can't
stop smiling.

Ace brought out a side of her
I've never seen before.

She's happy.

-What have you guys
been witnessing?

Like, where have I
done wrong at?

Y'all let me know.

-I've been witnessing
you be authentically yourself.

I've been witnessing you be the
strongest version of yourself

that I've ever seen.

- And I'm so proud of you.
- It gets tough sometimes

because you get the question
of who's the most genuine.

And then America puts you
in last place.

It messes with you a little bit.

It gets hard, you know?
- Yeah.

-And I feel like, with Chelley,

she's been, like,
the only person to keep me calm.

-I do think that she matches
your fly.

Like, you know, I...

I love the respect that
you guys have for one another.

I like
how you guys talk to each other.

- Yeah.
- I think that's dope.

And, um... And, I mean,
I can't wait to see

what comes after this
for you guys.

Um, I find it to be fate,
you know?

-I really... I really see
a future with us.

- Okay. Cool.
- You know?

- She can come around the fam?
- She can come around the fam.

-Can she...
Can she go to the cookout?

-Nah, she can for sure
make the cookout, man.

-From what you guys seen,
what do you guys think of Ace?

- I like him.
- Yeah?

-He reminds me of your dad.

- Really?
- Are you ready for that?

And if he thinks that he's
gonna say it, you want that?

-No, yeah, he really is, like,

staying on how he feels
and really,

like, just moves
at his own beat and stuff, so...

- And I like that.
- Yeah.

-I mean, I really like him.

-Okay, so before I forget,
let me yell out...

Ace got a 10!

-Yo.

-Booper duper tuper nuper.

I miss you terribly, son.

I watch you in every episode.

I pray that you are enjoying
yourself as you embark

upon a new journey.

You are equipped
with the necessary tools

and have been raised
to find your queen.

Thank you, son, for standing
strong, tall, and on business.

And thank you for shining
through and weathering through,

no matter what storm
you encounter.

-Yeah.

- That is...
- Yeah, yeah.

- Standing on business.
- Always.

-Michelle,
you got letters from your sibs.

This one's from
the youngest one.

The youngest boy.
She started that one already.

-I'll read it out loud.
"To my dear oldest sister,

I've been thinking about you
a lot lately,

and I just wanted to let
you know and say

how much I miss you.

You've always been
such a big part of my life,

and, honestly, not seeing you
has made me realize just

how much I appreciate you.

Watching you on TV
has been the craziest thing.

I keep thinking, 'That's
really my sister up there.'

You look so beautiful
and so happy,

and it makes me smile
every time I see you.

I also cannot believe you got

the whole world calling
you Chelley now.

That's wild."

"You'll always be Michelle
to me."

You know, I love them so much.
I needed these words.

- They miss you.
- I miss them.

Like, my gosh,
I miss them like crazy.

My gosh, granted, I would
have loved for them to be here.

I miss them so much,
but getting to spend time

with my family feels so good.

Like, it makes me feel good
about choosing Ace

because they see everything and
they still are rooting for us.

I'm... I'm happy.

This is the photo booth
right here.

- Excuse me. All right.
- Silly faces.

-Do a heart, do a heart,
do a heart, do a heart.

Hi, gorgeous.

- Maya Papaya.
- Long live the trio.

- I'll take care of him.
- Okay, good.

- Very nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

-You, as well.

We're all like sisters
over here.

- Listen, she's in good hands.
- She is.

- She is in good hands.
- All right.

- Nice to meet you guys.
- Bye!

- Thanks for having us.
- Bye!

- I'll talk to you guys.
- Y'all k*lling it out here.

-Thank you!

-Aww. Love you guys.

- Ace.
- See you on the outside.

-It was a pleasure meeting you.

-Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.

- Team Chell-Ace.
- Chell-Ace.

- Yes.
- Take care of our brother.

-Of course! Of course.
He's in good hands, I promise.

- It's been real!
- See y'all later!

-Of course.

My gosh!
They didn't see everything.

- Right, right, right, right.
- Don't start with me.

-Ch-Ace! Ch-Ace! Ch-Ace! Ch-Ace!
Ch-Ace! Ch-Ace!

- My gosh.
- Man.

-How was that?

- I miss them so much.
- Right?

- Hi!
- Hi!

-I'm Chris's sister.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- I'm Huda's sister. I'm Nada.
- And I'm Chris's mom.

I can't wait to see my baby boy.

-I know.
I can't wait to see my sister.

- Let's go in.
- Yeah. Let's go.

-So, on the way into the Villa,
we have Huda's older sisters,

Yasmeen and Nada

and Chris's mom, Trea,
and sister, Kiara,

and they're absolutely buzzing.

Although that might just be
the unlimited free coffee.

My God!

-Hi, brother!

-Come here.

- My God!
- I miss you guys so much!

I can't stop crying.

My gosh.

- What's your name?
- Kiara.

-Kiara. He told me so much
about you!

- Hi, baby.
- Hi, beautiful. How are you?

- These are my sisters.
- Nice to meet you.

- Hi. I'm Nada.
- Hi. How you doing?

- I'm sorry.
- Nice to meet you.

My goodness.

Holy sh*t.

That was... that was a rush.

Seeing how happy they were
to see me,

you go through all
the stressful emotions in here

and all the ups and the downs,
but, like, having that moment,

there's nothing like it,
for sure.

It was really special.

So I'm gonna cherish that
forever.

-We're very excited
about the two of you.

-It's been amazing
to watch you guys.

- Really?
- Yeah.

-Like. the evolution of just,
like, even seeing her change...

- Yeah.
- Has been the best thing.

-I needed to evolve in here,

and then I got Chris
at the right time.

- I know that's right.
- Aww.

You guys have your own...

- You guys look so good together.
- Really?

My God.

-And especially that one, um,

challenge when
y'all had the costumes

and you was Chef Leelee, and I
was like, "Go with it, girl."

I was like, "She got the moves."
Okay!

-There are some things a mom
does not need to see her son do.

-I'm happy for Chris and Huda,

for them to be bonding right now
and their family.

But how do you guys think
they're going to,

like, mesh together?

Because I know
Chris earlier was saying

how he was a bit nervous
about his sister coming.

- I think they're gonna do fine.
- Yeah.

- I think it'll help them out.
- Yeah.

-Yeah, for sure, for sure.

-The way he just folded
and melted in his mom's arms...

- My God, I know.
- That warmed my heart.

- So?
- Wow.

- Anything y'all wanna tell me?
- How are you feeling?

- No.
- Nothing at all?

- No.
- Really?

- No.
- No criticism? No nothing?

- No.
- That's surprising.

-I love exactly
what you're doing.

-You're doing what
you're supposed to be doing.

- Yeah, your natural self.
- It's crazy seeing it,

'cause I'm like,
"Yeah, Mom did a great job."

- Thank you, guys.
- Like, you're just...

I couldn't be more proud.
- Really?

- Yeah, for real.
- I am so proud of you.

- Don't make me cry again.
- I just...

I mean, we stop everything
just so we can make sure

we're in front of that TV.
- Really?

What was the last thing
y'all saw?

That you folded.

Damn!

Damn!

-I wasn't gonna say anything.

-I tried. I tried.

-Chris is great. He's great.
He's a really good guy.

-And you can really... like,
seriously, you can really tell.

-You need somebody
that's gonna ground you.

-And he's always just like,
"Listen. Are you okay?"

I'm like, "Damn it.
I can't yell."

I'm like,
"I need to shut up now."

-Good for you
for being in that position

where you kind of processed that
and you're like, "That's..."

That's a big growth opportunity
you had

because you were
not like that before.

-You shutting up
is the best thing.

I'm just joking.

I'm just joking.
You're gonna come for my throat.

I'm so glad you know
when to shut up.

- And you know what?
- That's some growth.

That's some growth.

-This is what you're doing, and
this is what I want you to do.

But...
Okay. Wait. Okay, wait.

Okay. The whole thing with
Jeremiah, I want to know.

-You went head over heels
for him too quick,

and, like, you didn't think
about that piece of, like,

"I need to get to know
this person

and really like the person
for who they are."

-I think that that brought out
a lot...

like, the toxic side of me.

I know that was a flaw of mine.

That's why, this time,
I'm doing it...

like, I'm getting to know him.

- Yeah.
- So everything is great.

- Yeah.
- How are you feeling, though?

Like...
- Um...

This experience
has been something...

'cause there have been
some hiccups

that we've been dealing with
in here.

I'm trying to be as,
like, accepting and, like,

understanding and, like...

- We see it.
- Yeah.

-So just keep being
your genuine self.

-What do you guys think
about La Huda?

- I love her.
- Beautiful.

We connect, you know, because,
being women ourselves,

and different situations
we've been in,

we can connect
with what the situations

that she's gone through.
- Yeah.

-And we understand it
because we all have.

-And definitely being
a single mom.

-You can see the growth.
It's really there.

'Cause you're doing a great job.

-You're bringing out the best
in her.

And she's bringing out
a good side in you, too.

-Yeah.

-You know, them kind of
affirming that what me and Huda

have is real is just...
makes me even want to go,

like, just even harder
for this connection.

Just getting that reassurance
from them,

it just... like I said,
it just means the world to me.

You have no idea.

-Okay. Wait. What was your
favorite moment in here of me?

I will tell you mine.

"I'm a mommy. Mommy.
Mamacita."

The best, the best.

-You're like... You're like...

-I'm telling you,
that in itself has popped off.

- It really...
- Really?

- Yes.
- Well, at first, I was like,

"Huda, why are you f*cking
saying it like that?

Just say you're a mom."

-I have no regrets
about coming here.

Do I miss Arleigh every day?
f*ck, yeah.

I miss her every single day.
- She's waiting for you.

-I know. I'm so happy.
I'm so excited to see her.

- Well, we do have a video.
- My God, I'm gonna cry.

Stop. I'm gonna cry,
I'm gonna cry.

-Aww!

She's so sweet.

-She finished
her first year of school.

- I miss her so much.
- You'll see her soon.

I know.

I miss her so much.

And I think that was
the best reassurance

I could have ever gotten.

And I just can't wait
to be there on her birthday

and surprise her.

I literally cry every day.

-How are your lashes still on?

-Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

And after only just meeting,

Huda and Chris's families
are already incredibly close.

Well, to be fair,
the photo booth is tiny.

-Maybe like a peace sign?

-My legs are f*cking burning.

They're a great match.

I think that he brings out
a soft side in her.

They complement
each other really well.

So we approve!
- We approve!

- I'll see you soon.
- Just keep doing

what you're doing.
- I got you, Mama.

- I'm proud of you.
- Thank you, Mama.

- Okay, I love you.
- I love you.

- Bye.
- This is crazy.

- Bye.
- I love you guys.

-Bye! I love you!

-I love you.
Take care.

-Bye!

-I'm truly grateful to be here

and get to have
this beautiful woman to my...

to my side here
and explore this connection.

So, yeah.
Thank you, "Love Island."

What the hell?

-Your mom is so nice.

-I know. Yeah.
She's... She's the best.

I'm sorry you had to see me cry
like that.

-No. Don't say sorry.
I love an emotional man.

- I love your sisters.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.
- They're cool.

Do you see where
my personality comes from?

Yes, absolutely.

- Especially...
- We all act that way.

-Not Neda,
but what's the other one?

- Yasmeen.
- Yeah, her. Especially her.

I can tell y'all really
locked in, for real.

-Yeah.
Your sister's so cool, though.

-She really is.
Like, f*ck, man.

I'm about to cry again.

-Don't cry.

-Those is really my people.

-Don't cry.
It's okay.

I'm glad you got to see them,
though.

- Me too.
- You know?

-Yeah. Of course.

They had nothing
but good things to say.

- Yeah.
- They see the change
that you've made.

And I think, like, that's huge.

-Aww!

-Despite the ups and downs

that me and Huda
have been going through,

just the reassurance
from my people

makes me feel really good
about this.

And they really, like,
relate to, like, you.

I think especially, like,
with being, like,

a single mom
and stuff like that.

- I got a video of her too.
- You did?

Did you cry?

- I did. I did cry.
- What did she say?

-It was, like, little clips
of her, like, talking.

And she was just like,

"I just finished
my first year of school"

- Aww!
- And she was like, "I love you."

And I, like, kissed the screen,
and then she gave back a...

But she's in good hands.

She's good. I love her so much.
- Yeah.

-I miss that girl to death.

-The anticipation is k*lling me.

Is it my best friends?
Is it my mom?

Is it my sisters?
My dad?

- Hey.
- Hello.

- Nice to meet you.
- It's so nice to meet you.

You've been watching the show?
- Yes!

I'm excited about seeing them.

-I'm excited about
Nicolandria Nation.

- Me too, girl.
- Let's go!

-So, representing
the Nicolandria Nation

are Olandria's mom, Felicia,

and Nic's sister, Ella,
and mom, Jennifer.

Or, as they're collectively
called, "Felicialifer."

-What do you think
they're gonna say about Nic?

-I don't know.
I really don't.

- I don't know either.
- I think they'll like Nic.

-My mom's, like,
so warm and welcoming.

Like, she loves everyone.

-No.

-Nic Pants!

-Mommy!

My God.

-My twin, I love you.

-Hey! Hey, baby.

-I miss you so much, Mom.

No.
I said I wasn't gonna cry.

Nicky.

-Thank you for coming.

- I miss you so much.
- I miss you, too.

My God.

-I've...

I've had so many days where,
like, it's been low times.

And I think about my parents

and my mom and my sister
and my dad.

I just have a family
who I'm so grateful for

and, like, who loves me no
matter what and lets me be me.

And it's such
an amazing feeling.

-And I saved the best for last.

My God!

How beautiful!

I have been rooting for you.
- Thank you.

- Really?
- My God. You have no idea.

I love you so much.

- That's your mom, right?
- Yeah.

She know everybody.
- How are you?

-Hey, Nic.
How are you?

You're even handsome in person.

- Thank you.
- So, question...

You said Nilandria?

Is that our name together,
Nic?

- Okay.
- We've got one, though.

- What?
- Nicolandria.

-Okay! Nicolandria!

-I like that.

-We were getting so irritated
with y'all.

Like y'all not see this?
- Really?

-We was getting so irritated
with y'all.

-Have we been oblivious?
Let me know.

- No, I don't know nothing.
- Okay.

-The personality
was definitely a match

- between Olandria and her mom.
- My God. That's my twin.

They're definitely related.

- So...
- Mom.

- It's been so long.
- I know.

I got so much to ask you.

I've been so lost
and so disconnected

- from the world, bro.
- Girl.

-I know Nic was so excited
for his mother to be here.

-He talks about his family
so much.

- He does.
- She talks about her mom

all the time.

-And she was so nervous
about who was coming in.

- My dad proud of me?
- He's very proud of you.

Your daddy's very proud of you.
- Really?

-You handled yourself very well,

so don't feel like anything
you did,

somebody's going to judge you
by it.

You handled yourself very well.
- I try to.

-And you've made me very proud.

I'm serious.
- Thank you, Mommy.

What about my outfits?
My bathing suits.

-Baby, you been poppin'.

Yeah.

-You know
I'm my mama's daughter.

I'm lookin' good, girl.
- Yes, honey.

I'm like,
you been looking great.

- For real?
- Yes.

You've been serving nothing
but body.

- Body tea? Face tea?
- Yes. Everything.

- Everything tea?
- Yeah.

-'Cause, girl,
I been trying to give it.

- Yeah, you gave it, baby.
- Okay, good.

Just to have my...
my wing woman,

my superwoman here
to tell me like,

"Hey, I am so proud of you."

Just hearing that
just made me just want to just,

I don't know, hug her so long.

-So how do you like it here?

-It's good. It's good fun.

-We've seen you in the sheets.

We've caught the night cameras.

- Sorry about that.
- Nicolas.

- I know.
- In public like that?

-But it wasn't in public.
Technically.

I don't know,
but we move on from that.

- I saw eyes open.
- Anyway. Anywho!

-We move on from that,
but, um...

-So I really felt
the bromance first

before any romantic connections
with anybody.

- With that guy?
- Yeah.

- That guy with the...
- Yeah, yeah.

What's his name again?

Wait a minute. Yeah, Ace.

It's on his back.
- Ace.

-They're good guys.
You can tell.

You can tell you guys have
a really good...

- So much fun.
- Daddy really likes Ace.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Of course.
- He's like... Yeah, he's like,

"Ace, I respect Ace.
Ace stands on business.

He's straight." Yeah.
- Yeah.

-Like, I really wasn't sure
what Dad was going to think.

And to hear you guys say
that like he's been so...

-He is your number one hype man.
No, he's number one.

-He's like, "We raised the
funniest man in the world."

-Come on.
That comes from his side.

- What do you mean?
- No, you're kind of funny.

-I've missed him so much.

And just seeing him on TV
hasn't been enough.

So I was just, like, so
incredibly excited to see him.

And he looks good,
and he seems happy.

-Everybody wanted y'all...

- Who?
- You and Nic together

like they've been saying...
- Really?

- Nic and you,
Nic and you for a long time.

-I didn't even know Nic liked me
until, like, a week or two ago.

-We seen it from day one.
Everybody else seen it.

He showed it,
and you just didn't catch it.

- Really?
- So when y'all finally did it,

it was like, okay,
everybody was so happy

because y'all finally did it.
- We're doing it now.

I'm glad everybody's
supporting me...

- Yes.
- At home.

-First I was like, um, no.

I said, "Nic,
you been doing too much."

- I was like...
- Nic, Freaky Nicky.

-But then I was like,
you know what?

He did exactly what
he was supposed to do.

He went out there
and he explored.

So do you see yourself really
giving Nic the opportunity?

-I genuinely do like Nic.
I really, really do.

I just like how he is.

He's so goofy.
- I like his little personality.

-Girl, he went on some crazy...

I'm like, "Bro, my mama
gonna k*ll me, like..."

This man, he is so crazy,
like, during the milk challenge,

he was doing
all that crazy stuff.

- Girl, I about threw up.
- I just...

-I'm like, "Nic."

They call him Freaky...
- I got some soap for you

when you get home, girl.

-I told you I cuss real good.

-I know, yeah, I know.

You ain't getting no hand-clap
on that.

- I got it from you.
- You got it from me,

but God dang.
- I told you I cuss real good.

-I see. A little too much.

I like cussing.

I see.

- She's a beautiful girl.
- Extremely.

And... And, like...
- And she holds herself well.

- Hell yeah.
- She's like a strong...

strong lady, I like that.
- So strong.

She's a girl that makes me laugh

and, like, we really are
just there for each other

through all the bullshit
that we've been through.

-I feel like you
kind of light up around her.

Like, in your eyes, like...

Just, like, your whole body
just kind of, like, illuminates.

- It's good to have that.
- Yeah.

-So you support it as well?

- Of course.
- That's good to hear.

-We've kind of been
day-one supporters.

- Really?
- Just somebody
you would bring home.

I would feel like
the natural connection

would be with Olandria.

Like, I could just see her
at our table.

I could see her just...
- I could see that.

- Talking shop.
- Yeah.

-Talking shop.

-I felt like this whole time,

the only thing I was missing
was my parent's approval,

which I really, like,

I look for and respect,
so today I felt like I got that

and now we can
finish this together.

All right. Three, two, one.

- Bye, guys.
- Bye, guys.

-Bye, guys.
Safe travels. See you later.

-30 hour flight for 10 minutes.

- There you go.
- It was worth it.

- It was worth it!
- It was worth it.

-It was worth it.

-Y'all's support
means everything to me.

-Let us know what
to make for dinner.

Mommy.

-I'm glad you guys are
proud of me.

I was so nervous.

- Mom.
- Bye.

-Your meatball will miss you.

-Mommy's meatball.

- Safe travels.
- You guys will see me again.

I love the support
from you guys.

- Always.
- We love you.

-I love you guys, too.

- Bye, buddy.
- Bye!

- Bye.
- Bye, Mommy.

- Bye, y'all.
- Love you.

- Nice to meet you.
- Be good.

-All righty. We'll do.

-That feels so good, bro.

Our parents really,
really support this.

-Now that I get to know about
our family and the people

that she comes from,
it's going to bring you closer

because you're sharing
your family with them.

And to me, family is everything.

All the things they were saying
was so positive.

And they have my dad
watching it,

like, he's just invest so much
time and, like, energy into it.

That was just really amazing.

And seeing my sister was crazy.
I thought...

- She's beautiful.
- Thank you.

- She's so gorgeous.
- How was seeing your mom?

- It felt so great.
- So good.

That's my girl.
My mom really likes you, bro.

- Really?
- Yes.

- That's so sweet.
- She was like,

"Why haven't y'all
been seeing the signs?"

I'm like, "I think she was
just being oblivious to them.

I don't know."

-My mom wants you
to come to the house so bad.

- I am. She already asked me...
- You got to.

- what I want for dinner,

I'm gonna tell her
what I want for dinner.

- She can cook, I swear.
- Really?

-A lot better than me.

-Well, I'm gonna be in Florida.
On some sh*t.

Yep. I'm gonna be in Florida.
- Come through.

-Me and Ella
is about to be besties.

-We have, like,
this happy ending.

And we're like, now we can
ride off into the sunset,

back home to the States,
and now we're just happy

that it's ending
on the highest note.

-We got some things
to plan, Nic.

We got too much support
from our loved ones.

- I'm excited.
- You know?

-Thank you for, like, being
here in this journey with me.

- For real.
- Thank you so much.

- I could not do this
without you.
- I'm serious.

- Literally.
- Like...

You've been like a rock
here for me, so.

-No, same.

-So the families
have had a lovely time,

but unfortunately,
they did struggle

to make a real connection.

So they have been immediately
dumped from the Villa.

Rules are rules.

-Today was truly,
like, a breath of fresh air.

- Yes.
- I felt like I was
maybe holding my breath

because I really value
what my family thinks about...

- Yeah, for sure.
- Everything.

So cool to, like,
see where you got, like,

who birthed you and,
like, you know,

your brother and your family.

And I'm, like, just feeling
absolutely blessed.

- 100%.
- What tripped me out

was everybody's parents
knowing everybody's name.

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

-Ace, my dad loves you, bro.

- Swear.
- Loves you, yeah.

- f*ck yeah!
- He f*ck with you.

-That's all I care about, bro.

-My sister loves you.

She said her favorite moment was

remember when I told you
that I was a mom?

- Yeah.
- You were like, "Mamacita?"

Everyone keeps saying that,
but I don't...

sh*t.

-I got a text!

-It's kind of ironic
because we saw, you know,

our blood family today,

and now we get to eat
with the family

that we've made
inside the Villa.

So, you know,
I have two families now.

-Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

Tonight, the islanders
will be cooking together,

because nothing rounds
off a perfect day more

than a little bit
of food poisoning.

-It was so nice seeing, like,
all of your guys' families.

-Yeah.
Same.

-What the hell
we finna cook tonight?

-My mom really likes Nic.

-You guys go well together.
I'm so happy for you, girl.

-Apparently, people have been
supporting it since day one.

- That's what I'm saying.
- Nicolandria.

-My mom was like, "I just love
how Ace looks at you."

- Aww!
- My gosh. That's so cute.

And he was just looking,
like, lost in my face.

I was like, "my gosh."

-Chelley!

- They f*cked with Huda?
- Hell yeah.

- That's good.
- Like, big-time.

-Meeting Bryan's dad was just
like meeting my uncle, for real.

- Aww!
- I love that.

-That's our Latino community.

-Me and Iris, I think from
the rip, everybody was like,

"Yeah, we could tell
there was something there."

-Thanksgiving in the summer?!

My God.

Mwah!

- I like this dress, Amaya.
- Thank you.

-Looking like
a big old bowl of lettuce.

-Cooking dinner with everyone,
I find it so therapeutic.

And it feels like
I'm back in New York,

cooking with my family.

-I'm on sauce-turning duty.
Don't mess with the sauce.

Ace got the sauce,
so Ace gonna turn the bowl.

- Hey, you're doing good.
- Alright. Thank you.

Bam!
- Boom! Okay!

-Is the fork on the left
or the right side?

-The left side, brother.

-Is it supposed to be
on the left side? Okay.

Obviously, they had your boy
cheffing it up in the kitchen.

It was cool cooking in the night
for everybody,

you know, making the sauce.

-Wow. Pasta.

-Should we pretend like we're
just still doing something?

- We're doing something?
- Yeah.

I really don't feel
like cooking, bro.

I hate cooking.

I can't cook for sh*t.

I'm a guy that lives alone,

and the best I can make is white
rice, ground beef, and eggs,

and even that's shaky.

Everybody has their role,
and cooking is not mine.

My gosh. Wait.

Chris!
- What?

- My God.
- Guys, this is burnt as f*ck.

Chris, you had one job.

-We had me on the garlic bread.

I burnt the first batch,

but then I learned
there was a few people

that didn't even do anything
in the kitchen.

They were just sitting there
looking pretty.

Huda.

-I just want to toast
to everybody here,

especially our families
that stopped their lives

and basically sacrificed
a lot of time

to come out here to support us.

And this is one of the last few
days that we'll all be together

away from everything.

And I just want to say,
I love y'all.

- We love you. Cheers.
- Cheers!

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

- Alright, dig in.
- Alright.

-Salud. Salud.
Vamos comida.

I'm full with gratitude

that, today,
we got to spend time

with our family and being here.

I did miss home a lot,
but day by day,

each one of you guys
started to feel like home to me.

And I'm grateful
that I could call this a family.

- We love you so much, Amaya.
- I love you guys.

-So, what do you guys
think is, like,

your highest and lowest
moment in the village?

Well, what is everyone's
peaks and pits of this season?

- Did you just copy me?
- No, no, no, no.

-It's like when you copy
somebody's homework,

but you make it
a little bit different.

Just answer the question.

-Honestly,
my peak here is Amaya.

The amount of love
you got to give is

something I'll forever cherish.

We'll see
where our road takes us,

but I guarantee you
it's something long,

and I just can't wait to see it.

And never change,
be unapologetically you.

My mom sent a message and
she said how much she loved you

and she can't wait to meet you.

Thank you.

-Bryan, we love you so much.

-My peak moments here
was just bonding with the girls

and opening up to each other
about so much.

And, you know,
meeting Bryan, as well.

I guess I would have, like,
a lot to say,

but, like, one of my pit moments
was the way I spoke to Ace

when we had
that miscommunication.

- Yeah.
- But I'm just so happy

that we have such
a great friendship now.

And I just wanted to say
sorry for just...

-Give me a hug.

- for the way that
I handled that whole situation.

-Nah, you're good, yo.
I appreciate that.

-Of course, of course.

-Amaya Papaya.

-I think some pit moments for
me was definitely my crash-out.

That was a very big
pit moment for me,

but it was also
a learning curve for me.

But a peak moment, I would say,

was the recoupling
after Casa Amor.

-My peak was for sure today,
seeing my mom and my sister.

And another peak was for sure

playing basketball
with the guys.

That was probably some
of the most fun I ever had.

I'm not even gonna lie.
So...

What was my other one?

I don't have another one.

Yeah.
Appreciate y'all, man.

-Today has truly been one
of the best days

of this experience for me.

My mom is my superwoman.

Her letting me know
how proud she is of me

truly made me happy,

gave me the reassurance
that I didn't know I needed.

So I'm definitely going to end
this journey on a great note,

knowing that my family back home
is cheering me on

and so happy for me.

-Aww! I love that.
I really do love that.

-Thank you.

-There's so many
good memories in here.

-I feel like... I feel like
this dinner is so nice

and like we're ending this
on such a happy note.

- Yes.
- It's like our little, like...

We're all in a chariot, led by
horses going into the sunset.

-Whoa!

- I got a text.
- God.

Lord, I'm scared.

-What the f*ck is this about?

-Ooh.

-Well, this is a b*mb.

- My God.
- Bro.

My God.

My God.

-Alright, guys.
Let's see.

-My stomach is, like,
fluttering.

-What?!
Bro, what the f*ck?

We just had a kumbaya.

This sh*t...

-Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

One by one, the couples will
lift the lid on the dish

to find out
if they're going to the finale

or if they have to leave
immediately,

which is brilliant television

and also an ingenious way
to get people out of your house

after a dinner party.

Up first, Amaya and Bryan.

-"Amaya and Bryan...

congratulations.
You have made it to the finale."

- Hell yeah, man.
- I love it.

-Congrats, guys.

-Congratulations.

-"Huda and Chris...

Congratulations.
You've made it to the finale."

-"Olandria and Nic...

Congratulations.
You made it to the finale."

- Aww!
- Yeah.

- I love y'all.
- Love you guys, too.

-Like, a lot.

-"Chelley and Ace..."

-"Iris and Pepe..."

-Welcome back
to "Love Island USA."

America's voted,
and now it's time

to find out who takes
the last spot in the finale...

Chelley and Ace,
or Iris and Pepe.

Do you know what?

This moment's far too serious
for jokes.

So I've decided instead to sing.

- I love y'all.
- Love you guys.

"Chelley and Ace,

your 'Love Island' journey ends
tonight.

Thank you for the memories."

-"Iris and Pepe,
congratulations.

You've made it to the finale."

-My dawgs.
It's been a journey, bro.

-I really thought

that they would be the ones
making it into the final four.

- b*tch, I love you.
- I love you, too.

-I thought we were gonna be
walking out of here together.

-I know, bro. I know.
But it's all good.

Everybody's journey comes
to an end,

and today is my day.

-Bring it in. Group hug, y'all.
Group hug.

- Bring it in.
- Group hug.

Yo, I love y'all.
- I love y'all.

-Man, I'm gonna miss y'all.

-You were the hype man
since day zero,

a leader, a role model.

My dad, he always used to use
this phrase,

"Fly with the eagles
or walk with the chickens."

And I think you're, like,
the eagle to fly with.

-We both are eagles, bro.

Keep flying.

-I'm gonna need you in
my life for the rest of my life.

-Of course, b*tch.
I'm not going nowhere.

- This doesn't feel real.
- I know. This is crazy.

-Losing my best girl,
my soul sister,

the person I started
this entire journey with,

it hurts so much.

One thing about it,

I didn't even ruin
my own makeup for my damn self,

but I ruined it a little bit
for my girl Chelley.

I love Chelley so deep.

-I love you.

-Are you ready?
Everybody get in.

-Alright, both of y'all,
both of y'all, both of y'all.

- sh*t.
- f*ck.

-I respect the hell out of Ace.

I always pictured us
finishing this journey together.

At the end of the day,
we love each other,

we troll each other,
but we're boys for life.

-She sits right next to me.

Since the day I walked in here,
we've sat next to each other.

It's just going to be so weird
not seeing her next to me,

not giving her a hug
every night,

not seeing her in the kitchen.

Like, I knew this was
going to come to an end

at some point.

-Bye!

-See you later!

-No! Push it back in.
Push it back in.

-Come back!

-I love every single one
of you guys.

Y'all have a place
in my heart always.

And, I mean,
this isn't "goodbye."

This is only "See you later.

-Um...

Nah, like, real sh*t, like,
y'all are my family.

-No, for sure.

-Regardless
if I left day 2 or day 200,

I'm thankful
for every experience in here.

-Aww!

-And I ain't never gonna

switch up on none of y'all,
so thank you.

-We locked in, okay?

-I love you guys.

- You ready, babe?
- You ready?

- See you.
- Alright.

-See y'all later.

-To finish it off like this,

like, of course
it's bittersweet.

Like, I'm going to miss
everybody.

I'm going to miss the Villa.

But I feel like my purpose here
was fulfilled.

I got what I was looking for,
so I can't be mad.

-I feel like I came in here
and conquered

and did what I wanted to do,
which was find a person.

And Chelley was that comfort,

that person who I feel
like I could be myself around.

And I'm just grateful.

-We made it.
We made it to the Final Four.

-Let's really embrace
this moment

and really celebrate the fact
that we're here

and we are the Fantastic Four.

-I really love you guys.
I do.

-Yes. Let's go!

-Yeah!

-Season 7!

Aah!

- My family!
- I got a text.

-Hey!

-Pop it, Nic!
Pop it, Nic!

-2, 1...

My God!

Final four!

-Final four!
Cuatro! Hello!

Guys, we f*cking made it.
- We made it.

- Can you believe it?
- We made it to the final four.

We made it to the final four!
- Thank you, America!

- Thank you, America!
- Y'all seen some sh*t.

-I did not think
I was going to get this far.

I wish I could kiss all of you
individually on the mouth,

very passionately and...

- Damn.
- Yeah. Right.

-We're all so different
and we all have come from

different places in life
and we're all together here.

And I think that's, like,
a very, very special thing.

-It means the world
and it means a lot that

they think that what this girl
and I have is something special.

-Everything really
do happens for a reason.

-I think the final is something
that we never really expected.

This has been
an insane roller coaster,

and I think we're just
eternally grateful for not just

the destination,
but, like, the journey.

-1, 2, 3...
