Transcript
00:00:00Last night...
00:00:02Let's go. Showtime.
00:00:04The participants returned...
00:00:06We're back!
00:00:08...for the traditional reunion dinner party.
00:00:10So good to see them together.
00:00:12Cheers!
00:00:14Oh no, where's Dave?
00:00:16It was so awkward when Paul walked in.
00:00:18Are you and Jackie dating each other?
00:00:20We are.
00:00:22Oh!
00:00:24The timing of Jackie and Clint's new romance...
00:00:26Didn't even have the balls to tell me.
00:00:28The balls to tell me. Left Ryan
00:00:30feeling betrayed.
00:00:32You guys started this whole connection
00:00:34when we were still married.
00:00:36I tried my ass off
00:00:38to make this relationship work!
00:00:40I was able to
00:00:42reflect on all these issues that we had.
00:00:44Paul told his version
00:00:46of why things ended with
00:00:48Karina. You can be extremely judgmental
00:00:50that it doesn't sit well with me.
00:00:52Leaving everyone stunned.
00:00:54You made multiple conversations.
00:00:56I'm genuinely surprised at Paul
00:00:58rewriting history.
00:01:00And when Sierra exposed
00:01:02secret comments
00:01:03Safina made about Adrian...
00:01:05He's like, he's stupid.
00:01:06He can't spell.
00:01:07Their relationship reached
00:01:08the point of no return.
00:01:10He talks shit about me all the time.
00:01:12He makes me feel sick.
00:01:13You make me feel sick.
00:01:14Oh my God!
00:01:15Wow, come on.
00:01:16The most disrespectful thing
00:01:17you can call someone is stupid.
00:01:18It was a nail in the coffin.
00:01:20Stop talking to me.
00:01:21I'm just forever gonna be the bad guy.
00:01:23And you know what?
00:01:24I can be the bad guy in his story.
00:01:28Because he's a devil in line.
00:01:31Tonight, after three life-changing months,
00:01:35Australia's biggest social experiment
00:01:38comes to a close.
00:01:40Hello guys!
00:01:41Eye-opening revelations for our participants
00:01:44and experts.
00:01:45Oh!
00:01:46Ryan!
00:01:47Oh!
00:01:48What a dude.
00:01:50As they watch footage they've never seen before.
00:01:53How do you feel after seeing that?
00:01:55That was a lot.
00:01:56That was a lot.
00:02:05Hi.
00:02:06Hello.
00:02:07Hello.
00:02:08Greetings.
00:02:09Good evening.
00:02:10Welcome.
00:02:11Come on in.
00:02:12Grab a seat.
00:02:13Settle in.
00:02:14Hello.
00:02:15Good to see you all.
00:02:16Welcome back, everybody, to the final reunion.
00:02:31Now, if last night's dinner party is anything to go by,
00:02:35tonight is guaranteed to be an eye-opener.
00:02:39Over three months ago,
00:02:44you threw yourselves into the deep end,
00:02:47looking for the fairy tale
00:02:49and hoping to find love.
00:02:52Now, for some,
00:02:54this experiment led to exactly what you were looking for.
00:02:59For others, however,
00:03:01the journey didn't quite pan out as you would have hoped.
00:03:05Tonight,
00:03:07we have the opportunity to unpack
00:03:09some of the key moments
00:03:11that have shaped this experiment
00:03:13and your relationship in it.
00:03:18But before we dive into those conversations,
00:03:22let's go back to where it all began.
00:03:25Aw.
00:03:26Your wedding days.
00:03:27Oh, my God.
00:03:33I'm done with dating.
00:03:35And I'm ready for that real gut feeling inside
00:03:37that tells me,
00:03:38yes, you're with the right person.
00:03:43There he is.
00:03:44Hey.
00:03:45Good job, mate.
00:03:46Oh, my God.
00:03:47You look amazing.
00:03:50I got her by just back to front, I think.
00:03:51Now, you take it off and flip it around.
00:03:54How many twins does it take to open a wine bottle?
00:03:56Is she the most high-maintenance one you've had?
00:03:58Not at all.
00:03:59Aw.
00:04:00That's surprising.
00:04:01Oh, he's not a bin chicken.
00:04:02Aw.
00:04:03Oh, my God.
00:04:04Oh, is that a bin chicken?
00:04:14Oh, oh my God.
00:04:23Going into the experiment, it's very daunting.
00:04:26I do want to have a family and someone that I can share my life with.
00:04:32Let's get married.
00:04:35This could be the greatest love story anyone's ever bloody seen.
00:04:40It's just going to be crazy, like, turning around and then seeing, like, that's the person I'm marrying.
00:04:50Hi, Rhi.
00:04:51Hi, Jeff.
00:04:58Wow.
00:05:00Oh, my God.
00:05:03Wow.
00:05:04It's gorgeous.
00:05:06Nice to meet you.
00:05:08You're actually way too hot.
00:05:10I'm actually not happy.
00:05:13Will you marry me?
00:05:15I can.
00:05:15Oh, I love that.
00:05:17Oh, I love that.
00:05:18You look incredible.
00:05:20Like a 70s angel.
00:05:24Got a necktie.
00:05:25Oh, my God.
00:05:25Oh, my God.
00:05:26Oh, my God.
00:05:28Yes!
00:05:28Sorry, Dad.
00:05:32That's so good.
00:05:34The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears.
00:05:37The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes.
00:05:39I'm engaged in this experience with an open heart and a deep desire to find love.
00:05:47I believe in love and I've been waiting my whole life to meet my person.
00:05:56I promise to embrace this journey with you, support you through every challenge we face.
00:06:03Oh, I'm here for the right reasons.
00:06:09I also don't have any intentions of doing an OnlyFans account.
00:06:15Ryan, as my friends would say, you hit the jackpot.
00:06:18You'll be required to take me on dates, buy me flowers at least once a month, bring me coffee in the morning, tell me I'm gorgeous.
00:06:29Together, we could maybe afford an Eastern Suburbs mortgage, adopt a Cocker Spaniel puppy, and I'd love to have a double his and her vanity bathroom one day.
00:06:40Hmm, interesting.
00:06:41Wow!
00:06:43Wow!
00:06:47Yay!
00:06:48It's an Italian traditional dance.
00:07:17Yay!
00:07:17That was worse than I thought.
00:07:43I'm so sorry.
00:07:46Oh, my God!
00:07:48I've tried on the dress.
00:07:51It's good.
00:07:52That's going on national TV.
00:07:53That's going on national TV.
00:07:55Wow, wow, wow.
00:08:04Famous drop.
00:08:06Jamie, you're getting emotional.
00:08:08Yeah, it was, oh my God, I want to start crying.
00:08:12I just, it was so beautiful that we all got to experience that.
00:08:16It really was, and just seeing how beautiful everyone looked, and like, I think we all had so many amazing moments, and it was a really good experience, and it was just nice to see everyone.
00:08:25Yeah.
00:08:25Well, look, certainly for us, watching all of us, watching all of that has been absolutely gorgeous.
00:08:34All right, to kick it off tonight, let's get up.
00:08:40Jamie and Dave.
00:08:41Hey, guys.
00:08:49So, um, there were a lot of high emotions last night.
00:08:54You were really upset, Jamie, when talking about the demise of the relationship, and basically the journey that you guys have been on, especially in the last few weeks.
00:09:06Mm-hmm.
00:09:07Are you ultimately disappointed that it did not work out?
00:09:12Yeah, I am disappointed, because it's, I'm, I remember having this conversation with, I think, with my sister, and I was trying to explain, like, the place that we were at.
00:09:23And when you look back at retreat, we were such, like, a strong, united couple, and people used to admire us.
00:09:33And I really thought, like, oh, I found, I found my man.
00:09:38And I was just so convinced that this was, like, this was it for me.
00:09:46And ultimately, it didn't pan out.
00:09:48So, I think, last night, you know, a lot of emotions did come up, because it is, there is disappointment.
00:09:58But I know how I want someone to show up in a relationship, and that ultimately wasn't the right match.
00:10:05But, like, I'm proud that we both tried.
00:10:08And we've got this really good friendship.
00:10:14We've had an incredible journey.
00:10:16We really have.
00:10:19You did just mention that you had an incredible journey.
00:10:23So, why don't we take a look at that journey?
00:10:26Yes!
00:10:26I want a husband that is a cross between David Beckham and someone who's done 20 to life.
00:10:42I want a husband that is a cross between David Beckham and someone who's done 20 to life.
00:11:12Look at this dress!
00:11:13Look at this lady!
00:11:14Give her a spin!
00:11:14Give her a spin!
00:11:15Give her a spin!
00:11:15Look at that!
00:11:17It's okay.
00:11:18You're safe.
00:11:19Don't worry.
00:11:22She's an amazing person.
00:11:23She makes me laugh.
00:11:24She's just hilarious.
00:11:25It's a f***ing wedding!
00:11:30Today!
00:11:30Today!
00:11:32No!
00:11:33I don't know what to do or what to wear.
00:11:36I'm pale as well.
00:11:37I don't know what to do.
00:11:39Get in the shower.
00:11:40I swear to you.
00:11:43Jamie and I.
00:11:44Um.
00:11:46To quote Jersey Shore, Dave and I smooshed.
00:11:51I felt like dopamine was shooting out of my arse this morning.
00:11:54He just makes me a better person.
00:12:03Aww.
00:12:03I feel safe.
00:12:05I feel secure.
00:12:05I feel happy.
00:12:07Like tick, tick, tick.
00:12:08Yes!
00:12:09Oh, she's bloody amazing.
00:12:11I've shared things with her and she's just zero judgement at all.
00:12:14She's lovely.
00:12:15I kind of saw an opportunity and I said, I love you, like I really love you.
00:12:23So you haven't said it back?
00:12:26No.
00:12:27I feel like now I've literally gotten a new husband.
00:12:33So Dave's enjoying it as well?
00:12:40Hey.
00:12:41Oh!
00:12:42I'm going to be quicker than that around here, boys.
00:12:44I think there's been some uncomfortable sleeping arrangements.
00:12:52Yeah.
00:12:54Not us.
00:12:56Not me.
00:12:57Yeah, look, we get on.
00:12:59Um.
00:13:01Yeah.
00:13:02Sounds good.
00:13:03Thanks.
00:13:10I have always been the one likely to initiate intimacy.
00:13:14That's why it makes me confused as to why you don't want more of it.
00:13:22I'm going to give you some hard truths.
00:13:24Yeah, go on.
00:13:27He's just not like that with you.
00:13:32Are we having a lack of sex because you're not in the love stage?
00:13:36I feel like there was a...
00:13:37Yes or no?
00:13:38Yes.
00:13:40How do you feel about Jamie?
00:13:43Oh, look, I don't hate her guts.
00:13:45I don't hate Jamie.
00:13:48The feelings aren't there as much as I thought they would be.
00:13:51Do you understand your words are really hurtful?
00:13:54Who is that person?
00:13:58And he just didn't even care.
00:14:00There's things that she wants and I can't give it to her.
00:14:02Like, yeah, I care about her.
00:14:04Don't hate the girl.
00:14:06Oh, no.
00:14:07Oh.
00:14:08The girl.
00:14:09I don't hate the girl.
00:14:11That's what he said.
00:14:13We've built three months together, Dave.
00:14:16Three months and I'll turn into a future with you and you're telling me today you're like,
00:14:19I don't have...
00:14:19Those feelings haven't progressed for you.
00:14:21When did you want to tell me that?
00:14:22I've seen how hurt you were.
00:14:29That's not how I want this to go.
00:14:31I don't want to hurt you at all.
00:14:34Because I care about you.
00:14:38These are for you.
00:14:39For flowers.
00:14:40I need to take charge and sort of step up and make her feel wanted and needed and not rejected.
00:14:48I'm willing to give it all I've got.
00:14:52I can't see what you care.
00:14:53Jamie, I came here looking for something worth holding on to.
00:15:02And with you, I believe that's possible.
00:15:07My heart tells me that I'm not ready to let go of you and everything we've built together.
00:15:11I don't think it's the end of our story.
00:15:13In fact, it may just be the beginning.
00:15:17That's so sweet.
00:15:23Dave, watching that back, what's your opinion of everything that happened with Jamie?
00:15:42The way I handled myself when Jamie raised concerns, I'm ashamed of the way I handled that.
00:15:48Like, this was something so special and it just came to this abrupt halt and it was all my doing.
00:15:58And I'm so sorry that that's a part of our journey and it's caused by me.
00:16:04Yeah, I should have handled that a lot better.
00:16:09I don't like to hurt people that I care about.
00:16:11And I think that's something I'm going to take away from this.
00:16:15She's taught me many good lessons in this relationship.
00:16:17And the negative thing that I've learned about myself from Jamie is that it's not fair to not speak your mind when it's very crucial times.
00:16:30You both chose to stay together at Final Vows.
00:16:34Yeah.
00:16:35And what I'd love to understand is what that happened in Melbourne that led to you not being together today.
00:16:42So, obviously, you guys saw our relationship.
00:16:48It was amazing and then kind of took a turn.
00:16:52And from there, ultimately, the concerns I had had and the concerns I'm sure Dave had with his feelings of progressing very much became apparent when you go into home life.
00:17:04Because, like, when you do have those feelings, you're dying to see that person.
00:17:10You want to do everything.
00:17:11Like, it just wasn't happening.
00:17:13And then once it was clear that those feelings weren't there, it just, I couldn't look away.
00:17:21I just always say, it's like you turn lights on in a nightclub and you're, oh!
00:17:25It's like, that's what it was like every day.
00:17:30Because I'm looking at a man who's trying, but you're like, he's not that into me.
00:17:33He's not that into me.
00:17:34And then insecurities form and...
00:17:37I don't like to cry.
00:17:40I'd rather be yelling at people.
00:17:41Everyone will come to yelling.
00:17:45But I came on here wanting to learn and to look back and go, what a great experience.
00:17:50I feel like that's exactly what him and I had.
00:17:55Who knows?
00:17:56Just like Ria and Jeff, maybe we'll get much next year, Dave and I.
00:18:01Well, thank you both so much for the passion and commitment that you showed up with every single day.
00:18:09And we do hope the best for you both in whatever you choose to do in the future.
00:18:13Thank you very much for your help all night, guys.
00:18:15Thank you, guys.
00:18:20Next, up on the couch.
00:18:31Adrian and Afina.
00:18:40Hello, you two.
00:18:42Hello.
00:18:50Hello, you two.
00:18:57Hello.
00:19:00All right.
00:19:01Well, there's no doubt, Adrian and Afina, that your relationship was marked with both highs and lows.
00:19:07It was tumultuous.
00:19:09And what we saw last night got pretty emotional, very heated.
00:19:14It was raw.
00:19:15It was unfiltered.
00:19:17Should we talk about that first?
00:19:18Yeah, I mean, in coming to the dinner party, I was excited to see Afina.
00:19:25You know, I did miss her.
00:19:27And, you know, we started off good.
00:19:30And then, you know, Sierra came in and they were having a chat.
00:19:34And Sierra said to Afina, well, you said this about Adrian.
00:19:38One was like, my business sucks.
00:19:42I'm never going to be successful.
00:19:44And I can't spell.
00:19:45And for me, the worst thing that you can call someone is an idiot.
00:19:53And that's how I took it.
00:19:57It felt, like, personal.
00:20:00And to hear those things from someone that you think cares about you so much, it was, like, just upsetting and disappointing.
00:20:07Considering I gave so much time and attention to someone and put so much effort in, it was probably the most hurtful thing.
00:20:15And then from that, I just checked out.
00:20:16I'm like, I lost all respect for you.
00:20:18You know, because if you do care for someone, you don't talk about them like that, no matter how upset you are with them.
00:20:23I want someone to be with me, that believes in me.
00:20:27And essentially, when I heard all that, I felt like you never believed in me.
00:20:35Afina, did you say those things?
00:20:40Not in that exact context, but there was some truth to it.
00:20:43Which, when Sierra said those things, I said to Adrian, yeah, there is some truth to it.
00:20:47At the time, you had left over not being in a promo video.
00:20:54Sierra and I went for a walk nine weeks ago at a time that I was really hurt and I was feeling sad.
00:21:00It doesn't matter.
00:21:00I know, like, I shouldn't have hurt your feelings, but I feel like hurt people say things out of context.
00:21:04But what I did say, I mentioned his business, yes, and I said he was here for the wrong reasons.
00:21:09Because at the time, that's how I felt.
00:21:10Obviously, the last time you guys all saw Adrian, Sierra and I together was when Sierra apologised for going out for dinner with Adrian.
00:21:20So, we moved past that.
00:21:23It's been weeks now.
00:21:25And I'm getting, you know, calls from Adrian telling me that Sierra's reached out to him again to go out for dinner and essentially come back in together.
00:21:33So, what happened?
00:21:34It just felt like another slap in the face.
00:21:40And then a week after leaving the experiment, Adrian sends me a string of text messages from Sierra.
00:21:47It was just a barrage of messages about I effing hate Athena and her tacky weave.
00:21:53So, I feel like she has got a lot of resentment towards me because I stayed in the experiment.
00:21:58I understand you feel like you were robbed of that experience, but your relationship didn't work with Billy.
00:22:03I have no involvement in that.
00:22:06But also, if you came here for a life partner, you didn't get it, you should have left.
00:22:11Like, how are you mad at me over that?
00:22:15Sierra, what do you have to say about that?
00:22:18Um, alright.
00:22:20First of all, I never actually reached out to Adrian.
00:22:22When I left, he reached out to me to ask if I was okay.
00:22:26The whole coming back together thing, what happened was, the day after I left, I said,
00:22:33oh, the wife swap thing might have been a good idea.
00:22:36What?
00:22:38Oh my God.
00:22:40Hang on, hang on.
00:22:41Just let me speak.
00:22:42For context, Athena had said those things to me about Adrian.
00:22:45She said she wanted to leave.
00:22:47I did say I wanted to leave.
00:22:48It's true.
00:22:48I wanted to, I won't leave.
00:22:49Sorry, I'll let you speak, Athena.
00:22:51Um, it's my turn to defend myself.
00:22:53But you're going to lie.
00:22:54Just let me speak.
00:22:56So I was like, well, she said that her type was actually a tattooed tradie from first.
00:23:03And I go, that's right, that's Billie.
00:23:05And then I said, maybe the wife swap was a great idea.
00:23:08We should come back together.
00:23:10F***ing hell.
00:23:12And that was basically it.
00:23:15You're upset.
00:23:15You've done the wrong thing.
00:23:17And instead of having any real accountability, and you tried to vilify me.
00:23:20All that hate towards me is not fair.
00:23:27All right.
00:23:28Well, Adrian, Athena, I need to bring it back to you now.
00:23:32We're going to take a look back at your journey on this experiment.
00:23:36You're twins.
00:23:50All right.
00:23:53Twins on twins.
00:23:54Double trouble.
00:23:55I'm Adrian.
00:24:01Hi.
00:24:02Nice to meet you.
00:24:03I'm Athena.
00:24:04Nice to meet you.
00:24:05You're actually way too hot.
00:24:06I'm actually not happy.
00:24:08She's exactly my type.
00:24:10She's everything I could have asked for.
00:24:12Oh.
00:24:12You know, it's two days in.
00:24:16I know we have real chemistry.
00:24:20Give me a nice pose.
00:24:24Adrian and I connected.
00:24:27You're number one, by far.
00:24:29Actually, there's every year.
00:24:33We're not even close to them.
00:24:37By far, honestly, when I meant it, like, if I had to pair them up and I didn't know anyone,
00:24:43it would still be my top pick, 100%, by far.
00:24:50Cute.
00:24:53Do you want kids?
00:24:54Yeah, of course.
00:24:55We'd have had them yesterday.
00:24:57Someone's saying they could have kids yesterday.
00:24:59It's like someone saying, they're ready to be a dad now.
00:25:02I didn't say I want someone else's kid.
00:25:05I literally told you from the second that you said I had a kid, that it was going to be a problem.
00:25:10Why are you still here?
00:25:10Because you don't want someone with children?
00:25:12Why are you still here?
00:25:12You know what you want.
00:25:13I would like if we can kind of just try to come together as a team.
00:25:17One moment we're arguing.
00:25:19Next minute, he gives me that nice, cute little smile.
00:25:23And you know, I easily melt and give in.
00:25:26I hate that face.
00:25:28What face am I doing?
00:25:29You know exactly what face you do to me.
00:25:30I'm just standing here looking like this.
00:25:31I just don't know if that is a foundation of a strong relationship.
00:25:35First chance.
00:25:37Have you ever cheated on a past partner?
00:25:39Yeah, I did.
00:25:43I made out with someone, but I told my ex straight away and I'm admitting it.
00:25:48I just don't feel like a lot of people will.
00:25:50Yeah.
00:25:51A lot of people don't want to realise they're a shit person.
00:25:53Oh my gosh.
00:25:55Have you cheated, Adrian?
00:25:56Did you answer all the questions honestly?
00:26:00No.
00:26:05What if I say I've seen your application?
00:26:07Seriously.
00:26:08Oh God.
00:26:10Adrian!
00:26:13Yeah, I might have.
00:26:14I might have hooked up with that other girl.
00:26:16Jesus Christ.
00:26:17Wow.
00:26:18Are you joking?
00:26:19I do get this feeling that Adrian's keeping something from me.
00:26:23Actually, why were you out for dinner, Sierra, Saturday night?
00:26:26You took her out.
00:26:29Really, bro?
00:26:31What do you think I'm going to do?
00:26:32Steal your wife or something?
00:26:35I mean, I'm only human, right?
00:26:40Just do that wife swap.
00:26:41See how they would like to have tomorrow.
00:26:44Finish your door.
00:26:47Oh my gosh.
00:26:49This is like insane.
00:26:51Hello?
00:26:55Adrian?
00:26:57He's not here.
00:26:59I'm pissed off that alone in the promo.
00:27:01This is fair for...
00:27:02I'm not coming back until I'll give you the promo.
00:27:05Shit.
00:27:07I left because I was frustrated.
00:27:10Adrian, I've got it on good authority
00:27:13that you gave an ultimate.
00:27:16Now, I reacted in emotions.
00:27:18You know, I'm a man.
00:27:20I make mistakes.
00:27:21And, um...
00:27:22Adrian, I've got to jump in.
00:27:24Because the way in which you're saying this
00:27:26is a real problem.
00:27:28You're not showing empathy.
00:27:29And you're certainly getting defensive now.
00:27:31So what I'm feeding back to you, Adrian,
00:27:34is that you're not good at saying sorry.
00:27:37And that's a problem.
00:27:40We can now reveal that during the matchmaking process
00:27:43there was more than one person you were compatible with.
00:27:46For this final week, you have the opportunity,
00:27:48if you choose to meet them.
00:27:52You know, oh, f***, let's go.
00:27:55What's one more task, right?
00:27:57Adrian.
00:27:57Adrian.
00:27:58Nice to meet you.
00:27:59Tim, nice to meet you.
00:28:00I'm Athena.
00:28:01How old's your little one, by the way?
00:28:03Six.
00:28:04Six, okay.
00:28:04Yeah.
00:28:05What does he enjoy doing?
00:28:06Oh, he plays footy.
00:28:08Tim asked me more questions about my life in one day
00:28:11than I'd gotten in the first six weeks from Adrian.
00:28:15I'm usually fine with meeting someone for the first time,
00:28:17but now I'm sort of a bit speechless,
00:28:18so I'm like, shit, I don't know why.
00:28:20Yeah.
00:28:21Nice colour on you.
00:28:23You look beautiful, too.
00:28:24I do, I do like your look.
00:28:27There you go.
00:28:28Yeah, you know.
00:28:29So, what about you?
00:28:30Similar to you.
00:28:31Yeah.
00:28:32Sure.
00:28:32Okay, cool.
00:28:35You know, is Max seen someone I would hang out with?
00:28:40Probably.
00:28:42He's, I came to 2.0.
00:28:44Jeez.
00:28:45You're not my future right now.
00:28:59This is where our journey ends.
00:29:01It's best for both of us that I walk away.
00:29:06Do you want to spend time with me tonight?
00:29:11Do you want to try right now, though,
00:29:13and see what the connection looks like
00:29:15outside of this experiment, Adrian?
00:29:20Yes.
00:29:39Afina, would you have liked to have continued the relationship
00:29:43with Adrian outside the experiment?
00:29:45The moment I landed in Perth,
00:29:48that answer smacked me in the face that that was a no,
00:29:51and that's the truth.
00:29:54I was like, I made a mistake.
00:29:55There's nothing here.
00:29:57There's just a physical connection.
00:29:59I got home and I felt really good.
00:30:07I was like, I am amazing.
00:30:11Yes, you are.
00:30:13I am a good mum.
00:30:15And I had this epiphany where I was like,
00:30:24who wouldn't want me?
00:30:28Felt good, but it's a feeling I hadn't felt
00:30:31and I didn't recognise almost the entire experiment.
00:30:35I didn't feel hot.
00:30:39I didn't feel like Adrian would want me or likes me.
00:30:46I just felt small.
00:30:49And, you know, sometimes I would lash out
00:30:54from those feelings of rejection and hurt
00:30:56and I feel like you feel that with comments said and actions.
00:31:01I just didn't feel good about myself in the experiment.
00:31:04I don't think from the beginning I was ever your person.
00:31:09Do you think he was your person?
00:31:13No.
00:31:14My person wouldn't make me feel like this.
00:31:22I'm sorry you felt that way.
00:31:27I'm sorry I didn't make you feel wanted.
00:31:30I'm sorry I didn't bring out the best in you.
00:31:31I'm sorry, you know.
00:31:34And I know for a fact, in time,
00:31:37she's going to meet that person that does.
00:31:39And as much as it sucks, it wasn't me.
00:31:49Well, look, we have to say thank you both
00:31:51for throwing yourselves into this experiment so completely.
00:31:56You both showed real vulnerability
00:31:58and we've loved having you here.
00:32:02Thank you, guys.
00:32:11Coming up...
00:32:12It's crazy to see where we started and where we are.
00:32:15Have you dropped the I love you yet?
00:32:19Uh...
00:32:20And...
00:32:20I was living with her when you were talking to her, mate.
00:32:24I forgot, we're not mates.
00:32:25We're not talking about that right now, Ryan.
00:32:26Apparently we're not mates.
00:32:28Jackie and Ryan go head to head.
00:32:30I'm so sick of it, Ryan.
00:32:32You're sick of what?
00:32:32Being held accountable for your actions?
00:32:34No.
00:32:35And later...
00:32:36Karina has also done certain things
00:32:38that have also made me feel extremely uncomfortable
00:32:41and upset at times.
00:32:42Paul hears some hard truths.
00:32:44I've had enough.
00:32:45I'm going to tell you the way it is
00:32:47and look at me when I'm talking to you
00:32:48because I won't get another chance
00:32:50to give this to you straight.
00:32:52And next up on the couch, we have...
00:33:08Ryan and Jackie.
00:33:17Hello.
00:33:18Hello, guys.
00:33:19Hello, you two.
00:33:20Good to see you all again.
00:33:21Hello.
00:33:22Hi.
00:33:23So, where to start?
00:33:26Last night, we learnt some new information.
00:33:31Jackie, why don't you fill us in
00:33:33on the situation with Clint?
00:33:36So, after final vows,
00:33:38you know, things ended pretty badly
00:33:40and I was pretty sad for about two weeks
00:33:43and crying and...
00:33:45Mm.
00:33:46What did you say during final vows?
00:33:49You didn't seem sad then?
00:33:50I said a lot of stuff during final vows, right?
00:33:51You didn't seem sad then.
00:33:54So, yeah, Clint and I had started talking
00:33:57and we developed a friendship.
00:34:00We started bonding over our shared experience
00:34:02and experiment and how disappointed we essentially were.
00:34:06and then Clint invited me down to Tasmania.
00:34:09So, I just took the leap, flew down with a one-way ticket.
00:34:16Then we just hit it off
00:34:17and we found out we've got, like, a lot in common.
00:34:21We have a lot of fun together.
00:34:23We can't spend a minute apart, really,
00:34:25without missing each other.
00:34:27We've tested, you know,
00:34:28do you want to have kids?
00:34:29How many kids would you have?
00:34:30Like, we've kind of gone through everything
00:34:32and figured out, actually,
00:34:33we do feel like we're compatible.
00:34:37And we're really happy.
00:34:39And so, yeah, I'm...
00:34:41Now I'm moving in with Clint.
00:34:44Wow.
00:34:45Sorry.
00:34:49Sorry.
00:34:50That's mad.
00:34:52Why is it funny?
00:34:54Because it's two for two weeks.
00:34:55Why is it everyone in this room
00:34:57signed up for an experiment
00:34:58where you were going to marry a stranger,
00:35:00you're going to go about three months of your lives.
00:35:02Like, it's not a big deal, guys.
00:35:04You all did the same thing.
00:35:04Not a big deal.
00:35:09They're having their own experiment.
00:35:12What?
00:35:13I would love to hear from you, Clint.
00:35:16How serious is this for you?
00:35:18Oh, it's...
00:35:19It's very serious.
00:35:21So I thought,
00:35:22why not live together?
00:35:23And...
00:35:24I was living with her
00:35:26when you were talking to her, mate.
00:35:27I forgot, we're not mates.
00:35:28We're not talking about that right now, Ryan.
00:35:30Apparently, we're not mates.
00:35:31Ryan, Ryan, we're not talking.
00:35:32Apparently, we're not mates.
00:35:34When did you first start talking?
00:35:38You started the beginnings of a relationship
00:35:39when you were married to me.
00:35:41That's not the case, Ryan.
00:35:43That is the case.
00:35:44That is not the case.
00:35:45Ryan, you're saying
00:35:49that these guys were talking before final vows?
00:35:54100%.
00:35:54How do you know that information?
00:35:56Because I was there when we all exchanged numbers.
00:35:58The first week that Clint came into the experiment.
00:36:03Okay.
00:36:04And I was like, okay, I don't see an issue here.
00:36:06I know that they're chatting.
00:36:07I didn't know the depth to it all.
00:36:10Jackie told me, and actually Clint confirmed it,
00:36:12that after one of the commitment ceremonies,
00:36:16Jackie called Clint at 3am,
00:36:17saying like,
00:36:18oh, I hate Ryan.
00:36:19That's not true.
00:36:19The experts are so unfair.
00:36:23But I'm like,
00:36:24it is okay for people to have friends.
00:36:26I'm friends with it as well.
00:36:27Well, at least I thought.
00:36:28The rumours were swirling,
00:36:30and I called Jackie after final vows,
00:36:33and I said,
00:36:33look, just tell me,
00:36:35are you and Clint thinking about talking more,
00:36:37maybe even meeting up?
00:36:38And she goes,
00:36:39no.
00:36:39And then she goes,
00:36:43I really do love you.
00:36:44I really do respect you.
00:36:46I would never disrespect you like that.
00:36:48Oh.
00:36:48Wow.
00:36:50Shit.
00:36:51Oh, Jackie.
00:36:55That's not what happened.
00:36:56I've got the text.
00:36:58Of course it's not.
00:36:59I've got the text to confirm it.
00:37:01You just said it was a phone call, Ryan.
00:37:03I called you.
00:37:04And now you're saying there were texts.
00:37:05Yeah, after the phone call,
00:37:06you sent me texts saying those exact things,
00:37:08and I've still got them on my phone.
00:37:10So sick of it, Ryan?
00:37:11You're sick of what?
00:37:12Being held accountable for your actions?
00:37:14No.
00:37:16Ryan, you seem really hurt by this.
00:37:20You know what?
00:37:21If I have to be completely honest,
00:37:22it's not this specific situation.
00:37:25It's the culmination of this relationship.
00:37:29You made my life hell.
00:37:32Like, and my question is,
00:37:34with the mountain of evidence,
00:37:36actions, words, contradictions,
00:37:38and non-acceptance,
00:37:41did you ever really want to be
00:37:43in this relationship with me?
00:37:47Truly.
00:37:47Yes.
00:37:53Well, I think everyone's very excited
00:37:55to see your journey.
00:37:57Oh, my God.
00:37:57Yes.
00:37:58The moment has come.
00:38:00Let's take a look, shall we?
00:38:02Oh, yeah.
00:38:03Look at everyone.
00:38:04No talking.
00:38:06I do.
00:38:06Silence.
00:38:08Shh.
00:38:09Where have all the warriors gone?
00:38:11Where have all the knights gone?
00:38:13Men without these roles have lost their way.
00:38:16So, for example,
00:38:19I know basic plumbing,
00:38:20I can change a tap.
00:38:23It's impossible to find someone on my level.
00:38:26So I'm hoping the guy is very successful
00:38:29and blonde.
00:38:30I think I'll know straight away
00:38:31whether he's got potential.
00:38:37Yeah, I'm a little bit disappointed
00:38:38he's not blonde.
00:38:40The male version of me
00:38:42is really what I was looking for.
00:38:46Jordan.
00:38:47And I was a bit concerned
00:38:48that he didn't take the lead
00:38:50when we had to walk back down the aisle
00:38:51because I don't want to be alone.
00:38:53And, like,
00:38:54there's so many shit men out there.
00:38:58All right, I'm going to dip here.
00:38:59Ready?
00:39:00You're going to have to catch me, though.
00:39:06Oh, wow!
00:39:08I'm so safe.
00:39:09This is where you'll find me today.
00:39:11I actually don't want the TV in our bedroom.
00:39:13You can't watch TV in there, OK, Ryan?
00:39:14I'll watch TV when I want.
00:39:15No, I don't want TV.
00:39:16I'll watch TV when I want.
00:39:18OK, there's three.
00:39:20My top choice.
00:39:21All right, last one.
00:39:22I'll put you third.
00:39:25Yeah.
00:39:26How hard is it to just be like,
00:39:28hey, I made a mistake,
00:39:29you're f***ing gorgeous?
00:39:31Because that would be a lie.
00:39:33Oh!
00:39:35Ryan!
00:39:36Oh, what a dude.
00:39:37With regards to the photo task,
00:39:39I'm not going to take the answer back.
00:39:41And then suddenly, like,
00:39:42the crazy eyes came out.
00:39:44What?
00:39:45But I've got to say, like,
00:39:46she gives awesome s***.
00:39:49Whoa!
00:39:51I'm ashamed.
00:39:52I'm ashamed of that.
00:39:54I'm writing a letter to you.
00:39:56The first thing I'd like to say is, like,
00:39:58when you dropped me at our wedding,
00:40:01I did hit my head.
00:40:02And it took you three weeks to buy me flowers.
00:40:06And the time when I was asking you to do stuff around the house,
00:40:09like, can you please close the door when you go to the bathroom?
00:40:11Can you please keep your shoes off the bed?
00:40:13I feel like you're not sensitive to my emotions.
00:40:15I was also very disappointed that...
00:40:18Oh, there's more.
00:40:18Fantastic.
00:40:19Yeah.
00:40:21Yeah, the first time we went out for breakfast,
00:40:24you didn't offer to pay.
00:40:26No!
00:40:26And the reason why I have a rap sheet
00:40:29of all the stuff you've done
00:40:30is because you've done so much bad stuff.
00:40:31I can't win with you.
00:40:33I'm just trying to be nice to you.
00:40:34I'm trying to help you grow into the man you could be.
00:40:38Jeff got a text message from Jackie
00:40:41asking to catch up without me there.
00:40:43Excuse me?
00:40:44What the f***?
00:40:45No, I am.
00:40:46Don't touch me.
00:40:47Don't touch me.
00:40:47As soon as the heat was turned on her,
00:40:52tears come.
00:40:53He's going around behind me back
00:40:54trying to get everyone against me.
00:40:56I can see your side,
00:40:58but Jackie, you've written a sheet
00:41:00of things that, like, you know...
00:41:02I didn't do that.
00:41:05Oh, my God!
00:41:07That's the thing.
00:41:09But, hey, Sam?
00:41:10Yeah, did you believe him?
00:41:12That's the problem, Jamie.
00:41:13He just springs bullshit around.
00:41:15I reckon even my nipples are tired of this.
00:41:24Ryan, I'm concerned that you financially
00:41:26contribute less than I will.
00:41:28Like, theoretically, if it came to it,
00:41:30would you be happy being a stay-at-home dad?
00:41:32What if I ended up in a coma?
00:41:34Who's going to look after our kids?
00:41:37Um, your beard isn't very manly.
00:41:40My beard?
00:41:43Jackie is the most difficult person
00:41:45I've ever tried to date in my life.
00:41:47What kind of conversation would you
00:41:49about anything?
00:41:49Because your brain is so small.
00:41:52Okay, come in, come in.
00:41:54So this is the lounge room.
00:41:56I just think he's been alone here
00:41:57for seven years.
00:41:58It really reminds me of the elderly.
00:42:02I just feel bad for Ryan.
00:42:03Oh, I've heard enough about your standards.
00:42:06Why don't you want to be someone great?
00:42:07Wouldn't you rather find someone
00:42:12that meets your high standards?
00:42:15There's no one out there that meets my standards.
00:42:17I'm really sorry that you don't feel accepted by me.
00:42:24I want you to know I do accept you.
00:42:26And I want you to know how much I do
00:42:29really think you're one of the greatest humans
00:42:31I've ever met.
00:42:32And I've loved you since the day I met you.
00:42:35Oh.
00:42:35I don't mean that.
00:42:38That's why I'm so outbroken.
00:42:41Are you joking?
00:42:45Yeah, Rory's really good looking.
00:42:47I feel like I just want to hang out with Rory now.
00:42:50If you want to give me your number,
00:42:52I'll be out of this experiment
00:42:53in probably 10 days.
00:42:56Oh!
00:42:57What the f***?
00:42:59Did you tell Ryan that you swapped numbers with Rory?
00:43:01I didn't tell Ryan that I swapped numbers with Rory,
00:43:04but he didn't ask, so it's okay.
00:43:09I think Ryan will be blown away.
00:43:12I've got some iconic lines
00:43:14that will go down in history as memorable.
00:43:17Ryan, I'm not a rehabilitation centre for a man.
00:43:22I'm sorry, that's ridiculous.
00:43:24I'll call my final verse ridiculous.
00:43:26That's not nice.
00:43:27I was always open and willing to listen and fix.
00:43:29It's not me.
00:43:31Your pride is the problem.
00:43:33As a man, you're not perfect.
00:43:36It's not the 1920s anymore.
00:43:39In a world of red flags,
00:43:40you are the red carpet.
00:43:44Being in a relationship with her is exhausting.
00:43:48I feel sorry for the next man who comes along
00:43:51and tries to be with her,
00:43:52because unless he makes, like, 10 million a year
00:43:54or is willing to be a stay-at-home dad,
00:43:56run.
00:43:57Just run now.
00:43:58I am hopeful that I will find my person.
00:44:01I just don't know when it's going to be.
00:44:03I have a feeling that it's going to happen sooner
00:44:06than I think, though.
00:44:09There it is.
00:44:11Because you already found him.
00:44:12What an incredible journey for the two of you.
00:44:18Jackie, what was that like to watch for you?
00:44:22It was pretty sad to watch.
00:44:25It took me back to those times
00:44:27where I was feeling really hurt.
00:44:29I just felt like I could never get through to Ryan on anything.
00:44:32Like, it was even last night.
00:44:34You got through so much.
00:44:35I took so much accountability with sitting right here.
00:44:36Can you just stop interrupting me, Ryan?
00:44:42And I felt like, actually, it wasn't ever me.
00:44:46It's something with Ryan.
00:44:52He just blanks.
00:44:52Like, he deflects and he just, you can't get into him in any way possible.
00:44:56It's like, it's impossible.
00:44:59Ryan, how did you feel watching that back?
00:45:03Yeah, there were some times there where I was indelicate for sure.
00:45:08I have definitely made mistakes.
00:45:10100%.
00:45:11I take full accountability for that.
00:45:13But, like, you're saying you couldn't get through to me and whatnot,
00:45:16but, like, in week two, you wanted a different man.
00:45:19And then in week three, you were texting another groom.
00:45:22Like, there's just all these examples of her being
00:45:25so apparently dissatisfied with me and continuing to write stay.
00:45:29If you were so unhappy and you were so dissatisfied with your man,
00:45:33he's not up to scratch, he's not meeting your standards,
00:45:35he's not blonde, he's not 64, he's not a multimillionaire,
00:45:38he doesn't want to be a stay-at-home dad.
00:45:39Like, the criticisms were endless.
00:45:42Why did you continue to write stay?
00:45:45Yeah.
00:45:47I, maybe everyone treats the experiment differently.
00:45:49I thought that I wanted to give it a go.
00:45:51I didn't want to throw away the chance to be matched with someone
00:45:54that I'm supposed to be compatible with.
00:45:57Jackie, it just doesn't make sense to me.
00:45:59It just doesn't make sense to me even now.
00:46:00I was sweeping my feelings under the rug
00:46:03so that we could try and...
00:46:05I could be patient and have hope that with time, you would change.
00:46:08What, that's not what this experiment is about.
00:46:10It's not about ignoring your feelings.
00:46:12It's not about constant criticism, like...
00:46:14No, I didn't... You can see, I did not ignore my feelings.
00:46:16Jackie, you apologised.
00:46:16I tried to bring them up and you shut me down every time, Brian.
00:46:20I was so keen to talk to you about everything.
00:46:22I was so keen to talk to you about everything.
00:46:29Now you're yelling at me, that's not going to solve anything.
00:46:52Okay?
00:46:52Because at the end of the day, you say one thing, then you do another.
00:46:56You were spinning my head around every day.
00:46:57I was walking on eggshells and then finally...
00:46:59And every time I brought up a problem, you said,
00:47:01I don't change.
00:47:02This is who I am.
00:47:03This is the man.
00:47:04She's trying to change me.
00:47:05But the reality is, like, your behaviour just never got up to scratch.
00:47:09It was impossible to build a relationship with you.
00:47:11I don't think we had any real communication right from the beginning.
00:47:14What about the times when you sat on this couch and presented a really happy situation going
00:47:22on between you?
00:47:23That was genuine.
00:47:24I truly believe that was genuine.
00:47:26Okay.
00:47:27For me, I didn't have a voice.
00:47:30And that's what made it work.
00:47:31Like, that's excellent.
00:47:32Actually, I'm ignoring my feelings, ignoring how hurt I was feeling.
00:47:37And just putting on a brave faith.
00:47:39A show.
00:47:40Performance.
00:47:40It wasn't a show.
00:47:41A performance.
00:47:42It's what brave people do every day.
00:47:45Oh, Jackie.
00:47:45Before we get into what he said, she said again.
00:47:48Clint, now that you're in a relationship with Jackie, I'm intrigued about what your take
00:47:55is on their relationship.
00:47:59Watching the video was exactly what Jackie described went on.
00:48:05And I just cannot believe some of the behaviour that he's demonstrated to a female.
00:48:09It's actually disgraceful.
00:48:12And even from, like, seeing Jackie on there, is that any alarms that you've seen watching
00:48:16Jackie?
00:48:18Not at all.
00:48:19Not at all?
00:48:22I've actually fallen more for her since I've just watched that.
00:48:25Jackie, I'm interested to know what you've learnt from being in this experiment.
00:48:38Um, I've learnt a lot.
00:48:40Like, I've definitely learnt a lot about myself.
00:48:42I've learnt that I can be confusing.
00:48:45And I've also learnt, like, not to try and change someone.
00:48:48Even going through the challenges, even though, you know, like, we didn't work out in the
00:48:53end, I can still take those learnings from every challenge to know what would make a relationship
00:48:58successful in the future.
00:48:59So, I'm really happy with, um, my experience.
00:49:05To you, Ryan, what do you think you've learnt from this experiment?
00:49:10I've learnt so much more about sensitivity.
00:49:14You need to be able to lean more into, like, the feminine side of a relationship, because
00:49:17that's the fabric that hold things together.
00:49:20But the ending is not what I wanted.
00:49:23I still do feel betrayed.
00:49:27Yeah.
00:49:30Well, what a ride it's been for not just you, but everybody that's been close to you.
00:49:37Jackie, you are now riding off into the sunset with Clint.
00:49:42And we wish you all the best for that.
00:49:44And for you, Ryan, the future is bright.
00:49:47It is.
00:49:48So, uh, good luck with it all.
00:49:50Thank you, guys.
00:49:51Thank you, guys.
00:49:54You do very well.
00:49:59Next up on the couch...
00:50:05Karina and Paul.
00:50:12Hello.
00:50:12Hello, you too.
00:50:16We have a lot to unpack.
00:50:17Yes.
00:50:19It is very clear from last night that, Karina, you chose to not be in the relationship anymore
00:50:26at final vows.
00:50:28Mm-hmm.
00:50:30Where do you guys stand currently?
00:50:37Paul.
00:50:37So, obviously, when I heard Karina's decision, I was, yeah, I was heartbroken.
00:50:45That rejection just did sit well with me.
00:50:48But, yeah, and then, and after being home for about four days, I was just able to reflect
00:50:58on the whole experiment.
00:51:01And then all these arguments that we've had, and all these little issues that we've had.
00:51:06And the question I asked myself was, okay, are we as compatible as I thought we were?
00:51:12So, Paul, just to be clear, what are the reasons that you feel make you not compatible with Karina?
00:51:24You know, like, for example, the fact that she weren't really able to take on much criticism, like, throughout the show.
00:51:34And then I felt like every time I was trying to raise certain concerns, it always sort of blew back in my face.
00:51:39And then the second thing was the fact that she has been quite judgmental in a fair few situations.
00:51:55My major concern was the fact that Karina wasn't really showing me her true self, because she worries a lot about her image.
00:52:03I always felt like sometimes Karina was, you know, making decisions or basing her decisions based on what other people might potentially think of her.
00:52:18And that, to me, it just doesn't sit down with me.
00:52:23Like, it's not being fully authentic.
00:52:29Karina said to me, you said,
00:52:30I didn't want people to think that I'm not the kind of person who stands for what she, for what I believe.
00:52:38What is wrong with that?
00:52:42Well, because she should make her decision based on what she truly wants towards the relationship towards me,
00:52:48not based on what other people are going to think of whatever the decision she's going to make.
00:52:52But the common denominator in that equation is her standing by her beliefs.
00:53:01I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense.
00:53:05Do you agree or not?
00:53:06She was talking about the relationship to herself and her beliefs.
00:53:09She thought that people were going to think, oh, this person's not standing for what she...
00:53:10I would appreciate it, Paul, if you do not speak over me.
00:53:21The common denominator in that equation is her standing by her beliefs.
00:53:25But I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense.
00:53:27Do you agree or not?
00:53:27No, no.
00:53:28She was talking about the issue to herself and her beliefs.
00:53:29If she was going to say yes, she thought that people were going to think, oh, this person's not standing for what she...
00:53:32I would appreciate it, Paul, if you do not speak over me.
00:53:38Hey, Paul.
00:53:39The mistakes you made early in this experiment and Karina forgave you multiple times,
00:53:45I don't think she was worried about what other people thought,
00:53:47because if she was, she wouldn't have forgiven you.
00:53:49She rode for you.
00:53:51She rode for you hard.
00:53:52I've been so genuine throughout this whole experiment.
00:53:57You threw me under the bus multiple times.
00:54:00You weren't giving me the reassurance.
00:54:01You made me feel so insecure.
00:54:04I literally tried to stick out and make it work.
00:54:11I think this is a good time to look back on your journey and this experiment.
00:54:22Oh, that's so nice.
00:54:31I'm engaged in this experience with a open heart and a profound desire to find love.
00:54:39I know him.
00:54:46I wasn't in a second, babe.
00:54:48He just stopped texting.
00:54:51He ghosted me.
00:54:53Yeah.
00:54:53So, Karina and I actually met about a year ago.
00:54:59Are you kidding me?
00:54:59No, no, no, no.
00:55:00But we just went our separate ways.
00:55:02I was going through a bit of a rough patch at that point.
00:55:05Okay.
00:55:06The only mistake I've done was to not communicate that, you know,
00:55:10and I could have communicated that a little bit better.
00:55:11My family are so important to me, so that was definitely a big tick.
00:55:17I'm smitten.
00:55:19Honestly, like, she is perfect.
00:55:21I just feel like we're both walking on, like, a romantic bubble.
00:55:29There was intimacy with Paul last night.
00:55:32Let's say that we are compatible.
00:55:38I feel like I've won the jackpot.
00:55:42So, last night, things just got a little bit heated.
00:55:46I said, I've slept with this rapper, and Paul obviously got offended by it,
00:55:53and he got really angry, and he, yeah, punched the wall.
00:55:56I was so, so angry at that comment in the cab.
00:56:03I felt so disrespected.
00:56:05Like, I was just like, whoa, like, what the hell?
00:56:07I just felt like an idiot.
00:56:08And I could hear you trying to apologise.
00:56:12I just, I couldn't really take your apology sincerely,
00:56:15because it was like, I'm sorry, but...
00:56:17He's owned up to his actions and what he did.
00:56:25Like, I can see it, that he's sad, and...
00:56:29I'm going to have to make that up to Karina, of course.
00:56:32I feel like she is a bit of a snob sometimes,
00:56:34and can come across as very judgy.
00:56:37And I'll be honest with you, this is giving me the ick.
00:56:39And now, I'm not going to lie, when I told Karina about Cleo,
00:56:45she said, oh, I didn't know you would go for that kind of calibre.
00:56:48Yeah.
00:56:49Wow.
00:56:50You know?
00:56:53There's been multiple times where I've noticed some contradiction
00:56:56between the way she portrays herself
00:56:58and some of her behaviours or actions.
00:57:02Yeah, so I feel like she's a bit of a...
00:57:06Sorry, where am I?
00:57:08Yeah, I feel like she...
00:57:09Where am I?
00:57:11Yes, I feel like she is,
00:57:14and she can come across as very judgy.
00:57:17Were there any parts that you left out?
00:57:19No.
00:57:21Were there words of your letter that you left out?
00:57:25Well, I re-read your letter.
00:57:27Yeah.
00:57:28And why did you miss out the part of saying I was a snob?
00:57:32F*** me.
00:57:33Aw.
00:57:34When I asked you in interview earlier,
00:57:37if there were any words you left out of your letter,
00:57:39you said no.
00:57:44Why was that?
00:57:48Um, you know, to be fair,
00:57:51I wasn't, like, 100% sure of the exact meaning of snob.
00:57:53Oh, come on, man.
00:57:55Oh!
00:58:01We can now reveal that during the matchmaking process,
00:58:03there was more than one person you were compatible with.
00:58:06Your partner is receiving the exact same task
00:58:09and will also decide whether to meet this other match.
00:58:13Do you think Paul would go today?
00:58:16No, I think...
00:58:18I don't think Paul would make that idiotic decision to go.
00:58:23Jesus!
00:58:25Hey.
00:58:26Hello.
00:58:28So, yes, like, what do you...
00:58:29What do you do in life?
00:58:30I like to hike.
00:58:32So you're an outdoorsy person?
00:58:33Yeah.
00:58:34Mm-hmm.
00:58:35Well, same, like, I'm actually also a very outdoorsy person.
00:58:37Mm-hmm.
00:58:38The more outdoor stuff I can do, the better.
00:58:40Makes me happy.
00:58:41Yeah.
00:58:42Why didn't I work out with your wife?
00:58:44Oh, no, everything is working really well with my wife.
00:58:46Oh, really?
00:58:47Yeah, absolutely.
00:58:48So if you're so happy, why are you here?
00:58:50Yeah, this is why I'm single.
00:58:54Because there's married men that are always looking for more.
00:58:57Oh!
00:59:01Baby!
00:59:02No, hey.
00:59:06So, I've got good news?
00:59:08Yes.
00:59:08Oh, yay!
00:59:10What do you mean?
00:59:11Did you go?
00:59:12No, I did, I did, I did.
00:59:13But, no, no, but, like, don't worry.
00:59:14When I got there, all I'm on table still run away.
00:59:16Like, ew!
00:59:18Wait, why did you go?
00:59:19As soon as I met her, first of all, physically, what the hell?
00:59:22Like, literally, Barbie doll, I was like...
00:59:24Pig.
00:59:26Oh!
00:59:28When I was sitting there, it just, just so you know,
00:59:30it just made me realise how f***ing, how much I like you,
00:59:33how much I like our relationship.
00:59:35Literally, the entire time, I spoke about you.
00:59:39It's not cheating!
00:59:40It is!
00:59:41I don't appreciate that!
00:59:42Why are you so cheating?
00:59:42You should know my morals, you idiot!
00:59:44Like, that's not cool!
00:59:47What are you cheating?
00:59:47I actually went on a date with another woman, Paul!
00:59:49I haven't gone on a date, I haven't gone out of my way to the f***ing date!
00:59:52It's your...
00:59:53While I'm here washing your clothes...
00:59:55You know...
00:59:55I'm embarrassed.
00:59:56Do you think Rhi and Jeff would do something like that?
00:59:58Who kissed by the other couples?
00:59:59Because it shows that they're strong!
01:00:01I would have not cared for.
01:00:02I've worked so much more than this!
01:00:04I'm actually so much better than this!
01:00:06Paul, I can't ignore the good times in the experiment, where you made me feel special and cared for and loved.
01:00:18However...
01:00:19You were given a test which you failed, so close to the end.
01:00:27Paul, I was yours, you had me, and you ruined it.
01:00:32I don't have it in me anymore to continue to forgive.
01:00:47I've made this decision for my future Karina self.
01:00:53I just want to, I don't know, I just want to, I feel like asking you to maybe try a little harder to move past it.
01:01:00I just, I just want to try to convince her to get, you know, like...
01:01:03If she does, I'm, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll be here with open arms.
01:01:11Oh, cool.
01:01:11A hundred percent.
01:01:25Wow.
01:01:33Karina, just watching your journey back there, how does that make you feel?
01:01:44Uh, it's, yeah, just bringing up some uncomfortable situations, um, yeah, reaffirming my decision.
01:01:59Paul, how do you feel after seeing that?
01:02:04That was a lot.
01:02:08I, I know I've made, I've made a few mistakes along the way, but I...
01:02:21Karina has also, like, like, probably not as much as I did, but Karina has also, like,
01:02:27did say certain things to me, or has done certain things that, that,
01:02:30who have also made me feel extremely uncomfortable and upset at all.
01:02:33Paul, I've had enough.
01:02:40I'm going to tell you the way it is.
01:02:43You have to stop playing the victim.
01:02:45And look at me when I'm talking to you, because I won't get another chance to give this to you straight.
01:02:53Karina has also, like, like, probably not as much as I did, but Karina has also, like, did certain, did say certain things to me, or has done certain things that, that, that, who have also made me feel extremely uncomfortable and upset at all.
01:03:16And, Paul, I've had enough.
01:03:18I'm going to tell you the way it is.
01:03:22You have to stop playing the victim.
01:03:26And look at me when I'm talking to you, because I won't get another chance to give this to you straight.
01:03:33And you need to change.
01:03:36I have seen a guy who has consistently broken his partner's trust.
01:03:48Not once, not twice, three times.
01:03:55The first thing, you overreacted to a comment in a car, you punched a wall.
01:04:01That's violence.
01:04:04No excuse.
01:04:05You did it, and you shouldn't have.
01:04:09The second thing, you talk outside of your relationship to Athena without telling Karina about it.
01:04:20You threw her under the bus.
01:04:23That's betrayal.
01:04:24The third thing, you get a chance to really grow your bond by saying,
01:04:32no, I'm not going to meet another woman for a date.
01:04:37And you say, you know what, I'm curious.
01:04:39I think I will.
01:04:44Are you hearing me?
01:04:46Yes, I'm hearing you, John.
01:04:49Any way you look at it, it's bad.
01:04:51And I don't like to sit this close and watch someone blame the person who's been on the receiving end of that.
01:05:03Rolling your eyes, shrugging, saying she's not compatible because of these reasons.
01:05:07Frankly, it just made me sick in the stomach.
01:05:16This must be a wake-up call to you.
01:05:18Karina, I'm curious.
01:05:27How do you feel?
01:05:31I wanted the fairytale ending, and I didn't get it.
01:05:35So, yeah, it's disappointing.
01:05:37I just wish you kind of switched on a little bit more and considered the repercussions and how you would make me feel by making, like, choosing what you did.
01:05:51I'm sorry.
01:05:59Yeah, so I think my question is to you, are you genuine?
01:06:02That's all it comes down to.
01:06:04What do you mean?
01:06:05If he wanted to be in this experiment for the right reasons.
01:06:09Well, ask him.
01:06:10I already have.
01:06:12Of course.
01:06:13And you know, you know, you know.
01:06:14Yeah.
01:06:14Because taking you on dates, doing fun stuff together.
01:06:17I was genuinely, I was loving spending time with you.
01:06:23I know I've made, like, some terrible mistakes.
01:06:25Like, I know I'm not perfect and I know there's a lot of work that I need to do on myself.
01:06:30I know that.
01:06:31As much as it's hard to hear, I know I need to, there's a lot of things that I need to improve.
01:06:40And what about you, Karina?
01:06:41Have you taken away any lessons from this?
01:06:44Yeah.
01:06:45I think the biggest thing for me is pretty much to just trust my gut and be more confident within myself.
01:06:52I know I'm, like, a bit more chilled and laid back and I tolerate more things than I should,
01:06:57so I need to be more firm.
01:07:01Yeah.
01:07:04Well, look, when you came into the experiment, there were high hopes.
01:07:07But tonight was very important, you know, because these are opportunities to learn.
01:07:12And this experiment is, yes, you want to try and get the fairy tale.
01:07:16But if you don't, it's very important to change the way in which you're operating in relationships.
01:07:23And I know it's been difficult at times, but we really wish the both of you all the best for
01:07:30what's to come.
01:07:31So thank you, guys.
01:07:35You can go back.
01:07:43Coming up...
01:07:44Have you dropped the I love you yet?
01:07:47The relationship update we've all been waiting for.
01:07:51We actually haven't said that, um...
01:07:54My time right now.
01:07:56Um...
01:07:57Don't leave us hanging.
01:07:59I...
01:08:00Next up on the couch,
01:08:15Rhi and Geoff.
01:08:20Hi.
01:08:20Well, I have to say, we are all so happy to see the two of you still together, loved up.
01:08:32Wow.
01:08:33Yeah.
01:08:36How's it all going?
01:08:37Yeah, it's going great.
01:08:39Since we left the experiment, I think we've had about one or two days apart from each other.
01:08:43Wow.
01:08:45All the things we love doing in the experiment translated perfectly into the real world.
01:08:51We've hung out with our friends and go to the gym together still and lunches and dinners and
01:08:56it's just been really, really nice.
01:08:57Yeah.
01:09:00What do you think is the secret to that?
01:09:01Because a lot of couples sit on this couch and talk about taking the relationship out of the
01:09:09experiment into the real world and it's really difficult.
01:09:12Yeah.
01:09:13Why do you think you found it easy?
01:09:15I think because we did what we said we were going to do.
01:09:19Geoff, like, never dropped the ball ever in the experiment and then out of the experiment.
01:09:25He always does what he says he's going to do and he's very consistent.
01:09:30I think we're both very consistent with one another.
01:09:33I feel like Geoff just makes me calm all the time.
01:09:37And yeah, I feel like that's why it has been so easy outside of the experiment and in as well.
01:09:46Yeah.
01:09:47Well, we would all love to sit here right now and watch your journey in this experiment.
01:09:55Let's do that.
01:09:56OK.
01:10:08Oh, my God.
01:10:10Hi, Ray.
01:10:12Hi, Geoff.
01:10:14Yeah, I know my husband.
01:10:16Hello.
01:10:19Well.
01:10:21Hey, guys.
01:10:21I've slept together a few times.
01:10:23Geoff is an amazing person.
01:10:30If there was anyone that you could pair me up with that I'd dated in the past, Geoff's a good pick.
01:10:37I put my faith in the experts.
01:10:38Maybe there's a reason that she was the person that was standing there when I turned around today.
01:10:42So is Ray the time that got away?
01:10:45Oh, time will tell.
01:10:46Usually, the more I hang out with someone, the less likely I am to see a potential relationship.
01:10:55But with you, the more we are together, the more potential I see in us.
01:10:59P.S. You need to make the first move.
01:11:02Every day's been better than the last.
01:11:16I feel more comfortable by holding Ray's hand or giving her a cuddle, giving her a kiss.
01:11:21Shall we dance?
01:11:22I could probably see myself falling for Geoff.
01:11:31I think so.
01:11:33Come back.
01:11:33Oh, yes!
01:11:37We've been intimate.
01:11:44Wifey!
01:11:45You look so nice!
01:11:50Ray is home, Ray is home.
01:11:52I'm so happy, Ray is home.
01:11:55Oh, we're not filming, are we?
01:11:57Oh, we are.
01:12:01Home sweet home.
01:12:07Back to where it all began.
01:12:09Do you remember the couch the last time?
01:12:11Yes, I remember our first kiss on the couch, yes I do.
01:12:14Oh no, no, no.
01:12:15Yeah, I'm looking forward to getting back to Sydney, but I'm more looking forward to coming back here.
01:12:20Yeah, me too.
01:12:21And him saying that.
01:12:24Here's a spare key.
01:12:25Oh, that's so cute, thank you.
01:12:30We can now reveal that during the matchmaking process there was more than one person you were compatible with.
01:12:36For this final task you have the opportunity if you choose to meet them.
01:12:40Definitely not.
01:12:45I don't want to meet them.
01:12:49No.
01:12:51No, back to the Game Boy.
01:12:55Meeting someone else would just be, I think, a bit stupid in my eyes.
01:12:58I would be probably the dumbest person in the world.
01:13:06It's very rare that people go from a romantic relationship to a friendship, then back to a romantic relationship.
01:13:12I just didn't think that I would be able to be romantic with Jeff again.
01:13:16But the task from the experts were extremely helpful.
01:13:20Like, I think they are the reason that we are no longer in the friend zone.
01:13:29You look amazing.
01:13:33Riri, I can confidently say, Riri, I am falling in love with you.
01:13:42I choose you and I hope this is forever.
01:13:44Jeffy, you are worth every day, every week, every month it takes to discover our happily ever after.
01:13:53And right now, I can say, I'm falling in love with you.
01:14:01That's all.
01:14:05That's so good.
01:14:06You're on top of the world.
01:14:16We're on top of the world.
01:14:19Wow.
01:14:20That was so nice to watch.
01:14:22That was so beautiful to watch.
01:14:24Yeah.
01:14:24Yeah, it's crazy to see where we started and where we are.
01:14:27Yeah.
01:14:28Yeah.
01:14:28Well, that's about a month ago and the two of you were both very clearly talking about falling in love.
01:14:36With each other.
01:14:39Where are you both at today?
01:14:46Have you dropped the I love you yet?
01:14:48We actually haven't said that.
01:14:51No time like now.
01:14:55Don't leave us hanging.
01:14:57I...
01:15:06Don't leave us hanging.
01:15:15Have you dropped the I love you yet?
01:15:19We actually...
01:15:32We actually haven't...
01:15:32We actually haven't said that.
01:15:34Um...
01:15:37No, we haven't said it yet.
01:15:37We haven't said that.
01:15:40But, um, in saying that...
01:15:46I...
01:15:47I do love you, Ri.
01:15:56I love you, too.
01:16:07He's done it!
01:16:08He's done it!
01:16:09He did it!
01:16:09He did it!
01:16:10He did it!
01:16:10He did it!
01:16:11He did it!
01:16:13Oh.
01:16:13Oh.
01:16:14Awesome.
01:16:14Wow.
01:16:16This is wonderful.
01:16:17Yeah.
01:16:17Yeah.
01:16:18How does it feel to know that each other has actually uttered those magic words?
01:16:24No, it feels...
01:16:24It feels incredible.
01:16:26I think we have just been kind of waiting for someone to say it.
01:16:30Yeah.
01:16:30Yeah.
01:16:30Definitely.
01:16:31I guess the prompt was needed.
01:16:33And, uh, thank you for the prompt because, um, yeah, it feels amazing, to be honest.
01:16:39So, Geoff, for you, what does the future hold for you and Ri?
01:16:44I guess the next step would probably be...
01:16:46Baby.
01:16:46Babies.
01:16:49I think just really enjoying normal life, going on some holidays together.
01:16:52Yeah.
01:16:53And maybe living together back in Melbourne or that.
01:16:56Practically living there.
01:16:57Yeah, practically living together already.
01:16:59But, um, you know, I want to enjoy the relationship and just really enjoy that.
01:17:04Yeah.
01:17:04I think that it's just nice to enjoy each other's company and just be,
01:17:08I guess, in the present moment.
01:17:11But, yeah, I definitely want to, like, settle down and have kids one day.
01:17:14But, um, yeah, for, I guess, the next year, travel and have fun and enjoy each other's company.
01:17:19Well, how happy are the two of you that you met for the second time?
01:17:23Yes.
01:17:23Very happy.
01:17:24Married at second sight.
01:17:25That's it, yeah.
01:17:30It has been an amazing journey.
01:17:31And, um, once again, thank you for matching us.
01:17:33Yeah.
01:17:34Obviously, at the start, we were very, uh, worried about the matching.
01:17:37But, um, yeah, timing's everything, I guess.
01:17:39And the timing was right.
01:17:41Yeah.
01:17:41Right now.
01:17:43Well, thank you so much for your time in this experiment, for your courage, your authenticity.
01:17:56We salute you and wish you both all the best and all the happiness in the world.
01:18:00Thank you so much.
01:18:01Thank you so much, thanks.
01:18:08Well, it has been 12 seasons of Maps.
01:18:12And just when we thought that we've seen it all, yet again, we were proven wrong.
01:18:18For those of you leaving here with love, we wish you all the best.
01:18:25And for those of you walking away single, we hope that you can take the lessons learned here
01:18:32and apply them to your future relationships.
01:18:35Congratulations.
01:18:37You got there.
01:18:38You did it.
01:18:39And we are so proud of you all.
01:18:41Thanks, everyone.
01:18:42Woo!
01:18:52Take care of yourself.
01:18:53I'm sorry.
01:18:54Oh, look at this.
01:18:56I finally get to hug you.
01:18:58I'll tell you why I need to stop here.
01:19:01I'll tell you why I wait here.
