Love Island (2015–…): Season 8, Episode 18 - Episode 18 - full transcript

IAIN STIRLING:
'Previously on Love Island...'

# You make me feel so young... #

'..a new girl entered paradise...'

I'm excited to meet you all.

'..and got to work.'

# And every time
I see you grin... #

I can already tell
you're attracted to me.

'Then a new boy crashed the party.'

# You make me feel so young

# Because you
You make me feel... #

Hey, girls.
Hello!



# So young. #

'Tonight...

'Emotions run high in the villa.'

He's led me on,
he's telling me all this bullshit.

He wants to know Paige,
that's what it is.

I just don't know.

I just feel, like,
really confused at the minute.

'And is one girl's head turning?'

There's just something about Charlie
that does intrigue me.

Hmm.

# Well, you can tell by the way
I use my walk

# I'm a woman's man
No time to talk. #

IAIN STIRLING: 'New boy Charlie
says just cos he went

'to private school and talks posh,
people reckon he's upper-class.



'But Charlie's actually spent time

'in some of the country's
toughest estates.

'Balmoral, Sandringham - and even
a bank holiday weekend in Windsor!'

Grill me, grill me. How old are you?
I'm 28, mate. Where are you from?

I'm from London.
Are you flustered, Luca? Yeah, I am.

I think I fancy him!

When was your last relationship?

Er, it was about two years ago.

What's your type, then?

I'm more of a personality guy.

I usually go for someone
who's, like, very confident,

um, sort of knows what they want,

er, quite fun.

And then, yeah, looks-wise,

I've been for quite a variation
of different girls, to be honest.

We'll just do boy chat.
You girls can disappear.

OK.
Sounds good.

CHATTER

How was that, mate, in front
of the girls? Mate, it was pretty...

It's quite full on, isn't it?

Yeah. You handled it quite well,
though.

Yeah, yeah. It was all right.
Yeah, you did. Seven girls, man.

You did pretty well.
Yeah, I know, mate. Like...

Anyone you're really
keeping eye contact with?

You don't have to tell us, but...
Mate, to be honest, I'm being real.

I am keeping my options open.
I wanna get to know everyone.

Don't shoot yourself
in the foot too early.

Yeah.

PAIGE: I feel like you and Charlie
might have vibed a little bit, like,

or are you not feeling it?
EKIN-SU: No, I don't know,

like, obviously my heart
and my feelings are with Jay,

and I need to talk to him
before anything happens tonight,

see what the actual thing was
with this girl. Yeah, of course.

I feel genuinely like me and Jay
do get along. Yeah.

Hey, hon, you OK?
All right?

If he says to me that this date

went really well with this...
Antoniga?

Antignea.
Huh?

Antignea.
Antignea. And says, "I like her",

I'm gonna get to know Charlie.

How are you boys,
like, with all your couples?

How are you settling in?
You're single, right?

Yeah, I'm single now.
A really flat situation.

LAUGHTER

I mean, time to get to know Danica,
and, you know...

What about you?
How's things with Ekin-Su?

Yeah, things with Ekin are good.

Yeah, I feel like a lot's happened
in the last week.

But you're here to disrupt, mate.

Give you the green light.
Do what you've gotta do.

Boys, I'll tell you now,
I'm probably -

I'm gonna get to know everyone.
We're used to it, bro.

I'd expect the same from you boys,
anyway, if it was vice versa.

Yeah, we would steal
your girl too, so...

LAUGHTER
Exactly, mate. Yeah, yeah.

Hopefully Jay will come over now.

Please tell me he's gonna
come over and pull me for a chat.

Who, Jay? Don't even stress it,
don't give him the eye.

Just let him do his thing, girl.
Hmm.

Ekin, do you wanna
have a quick talk? Yeah.

See you later, girls.

See you.
Bye, love you. Enjoy.

Yeah, how do you find Antigoni?

Yeah, she's nice.
Yeah? Yeah.

What do you think of the new lad,
Charlie? Good lad?

I don't know him yet. Yeah.
Seems like a nice person.

So, obviously, like,
you've probably sensed

that I've been a little bit off,
like, today and yesterday.

Um, just because
I wanna be honest with my feelings,

and I feel like,
because I moved so fast with you...

Mm-hm.
I didn't get the chance to explore,

er, maybe getting to know Paige.

Mm-hm.

It's something that I've felt,
like, for a while, but I didn't...

Things were just moving so fast.

I'm just shocked
with the Paige thing, but, wow.

No, but I wanted to tell you first,

because I really respect you
and I owe you the respect.

Then, cool. Like,
I'm glad you're honest with me.

I don't wanna be in the way.
If you wanna get to know Paige,

get to know her.

Exactly, and I appreciate it.

What do you think Jacques
is gonna think?

I'm gonna tell him tonight.

Listen, I have to be respectful,
and that's what I'm gonna do.

I'll speak to Jacques tonight
and then I'll tell Paige. OK.

And if Paige says to me, "Jay,
I'm really happy with Jacques",

then there's nothing
I can do about that. Yeah.

Yeah?
Yeah.

Good. I think you should
go get to know Paige, then. Yeah?

Well, I need to talk to Jacques.
Go on, you talk to Jacques, then.

You're a legend, Ekin,
I appreciate it. Always.

I feel like I've gone through
so much in here.

For fuck's sake! Like,
why would you do this to me, Jay?

Why? Why is it me again?

Like, I don't... I don't understand.

I'm gonna third-wheel you guys
right now. Yeah, of course.

Are you all right? You seem
a bit hot, man, are you good?

No, no, I'm good, man.
I just wanna chat to Jacques.

What did you tell her?
What's going on?

I just wanted to get
to know Paige a bit more.

OK. And I felt like it wasn't fair
to keep it from Ekin,

and that's why I was a little bit
distant from Ekin the past few days.

I think that's fair.
I think that's fair.

I mean, you're in here
to find somebody,

and you've gotta go with your heart.

As long as you're being open
and honest along the way... Yeah.

..don't see a problem.
Do you know what, man,

that conversation with Ekin
couldn't have gone any better.

How did it... What was it like?
Mate, she just was so understanding.

Really?! Yeah,
she's a really good girl, man.

I'm gonna pull him now.

OK. Good luck, yeah?
Good luck.

You've got this.
I'm proud of you, man.

Jacques. Come here, bro.
Yo.

Jacques is not gonna like this.

What are you saying, you good?
Yeah, I'm good, bro, I'm good. Um...

Listen, bro, I don't want anything
to get between us, right?

Yeah, sweet. And I'm telling you
because, man-to-man,

like, I want your respect. Um...

I want to get to know Paige.

Yeah, sweet, crack on.
On a better level, man. Yeah, yeah.

No, you do what you want. It's not
gonna come between me and you.

I appreciate it.

Cos you have to do what you have
to do in here. Know what I mean?

So, don't feel awkward about it.
I can't even see you smiling, mate.

Put a smile on your face, lad,
because...

Yeah, I just didn't want you
to feel like I was being a snake

or anything behind your back, man.

Well, you've come and told me,
you know what I mean?

And I've told Ekin as well, like.
Yeah.

So you're not feeling it
at all with Ekin, like?

Just too much drama for you, innit?
Yeah, yeah, I mean...

Do you know what, mate?
That conversation I had with Ekin...

Yeah, she's fine one-on-one,
in't she?

But, no, mate,
when I told her that about Paige,

she couldn't have taken it
any better.

So, go do what you have to do.

Obviously we are getting on good,
so I don't know how good it'll go,

but that'll be for me to see and
her to see, you know what I mean?

No, I'm glad about this, mate,
cos it does leave us, like,

it leaves us in a place
where it's gonna be worse or better.

Yeah, yeah.
So, you know what I mean?

You can't go wrong with honesty.

We need a test, anyway. It's either
gonna make us worse or better us.

And, mate, I'm a big believer
in things happen for a reason,

so, in the next few days,
we'll see how things unfold.

But I don't think I've got
nothing to worry about, you know?

Oh, God, same...
What were you and Jay talking about?

He was just telling me
he was gonna get to know Paige.

I was like, yeah, sweet, crack on.
I was like, yeah, it's fine.

We either come better from it
or worse.

And I reckon we'll be better,
so, you know what I mean? Yeah.

It don't bother me. He's been honest
with me as well, he told me.

Go on, then. Go drop some game, boy.
You know what I mean?

So, literally, we've got too good
of a thing, you know what I mean?

Hi.
Hello.

How are we?
Good. You OK?

Good, are you?

No, this dress is hard to walk in.
There's not enough legroom.

You look all right in it, though.

Oh, thanks, hon.
First compliment from you.

What? Oh, do I need to tell her?

Oh. No, Jay just pulled me
for a chat then.

Said he was gonna get to know you.
I was like, yeah, sweet. Crack on.

Hm. You know what I mean?
It don't bother me, lad.

But he was honest about it,
so I was like, yeah, sweet. Hm.

It'll be the first real test,
so, yeah, go do your thing.

Fair enough. Know what I mean?
Don't bother me, so...

You've just got to do your thing
and then... Yeah.

I'll give you a snog in bed tonight,
don't worry.

I mean... Like, any lad
could come in here, right,

and say,
"I'm gonna get to know Paige." Mm.

Go ahead. Go ahead, mate.

Mm.

What's up with you?
Nothing, I'm fine.

WHISPERS: Is this a joke?

Oh, God, I feel like an idiot!

Urgh!

Mate, it's phenomenal, man,
the talent.

So many girls, mate.
Yeah.

Hi. Hi, Charlie. Sorry,
can I talk to you for just a second?

Yeah.

# I could be a better boyfriend. #

IAIN STIRLING:
'The critics raved

'about Love Island's
latest blockbuster,

'Ekin-Su: I Don't Wanna
Be In The Way, certificate PG.

'And now,
she's back with the sequel,

'Ekin-Su: I Take Everything Back.

'This one's a 15.'

First of all, I take everything back
I've said here.

I was calm, collected, yeah?
All right, OK.

OK? It's just hit me now
what you've done.

You knew at the coupling,
to stay "safe",

that I would pick you.

You could have got to know Paige
from day dot, yeah?

And now you're wanting to get Paige.
Funny, that, isn't it?

Why would you open up to me?

Why would you tell me things like,
"If someone walked in here,"

you know, all these cute things,
"my head wouldn't turn."

Do you know how muggy that is?

So, firstly, Ekin,

I didn't even take Paige on a date,
for obvious reasons.

What do you mean, obvious reasons?

What about me, then?
Why did you get to know me, then?

Well, I was getting to know you
and things... things just...

Things what?
There was a romantic connection,

a physical attraction between us,
and now...

And now, all of a sudden, Paige.

But the more I've got to know you,
I've just realised

that actually maybe we're not
personality compatible.

You full-on led me on here.

I have been genuine with you.
I coupled up with you!

Davide could have gone home,
but I picked you.

That's your choice, not mine.
And now, all of a sudden,

you wanna get to know Paige.
She's in a relationship -

do you know how fucking muggy
that makes you look?

You're always concerned about
how everyone thinks about you.

Mug! You should write it
on your fucking forehead.

Well, if I was a mug, Ekin,
I would have gone to Paige first,

wouldn't I have?
And you know what's really ironic?

Apparently, I was a player here,

but the biggest player
in this villa is you, Jay.

And you deserve
the biggest Oscar in here.

So well done.

# I know the games you play
Now watch me walk away... #

Good luck. Go, get to know Paige
cos it's not gonna work out,

and when you come back to me,
I'm not here any more, so fuck off.

That's why I told you first.
You should just fuck off, Jay!

Biggest mug in this villa.

I thought you said it went good,
bro.

Bro, it went well,
and now it didn't!

When you said it went good, I was
like, "It's too good to be true."

He's led me on,
he's telling me all this bullshit.

He wants to know Paige,
that's what it is.

I mean, you did the same to him.
I don't care,

no woman deserves this.
He should have told me.

He wanted to stay safe
so he coupled up with me.

No, he coupled up with you
and he found out what you are

in two days, mate -
a fucking headache. No! No, shut up!

He wants to get to know Paige.
Yes, he does.

He's getting to know people.
There's nothing wrong

with getting to know someone...
There you go.

..but don't lead me on.
He's not leading anybody on.

There's nothing wrong with him
getting to know everyone.

I said to you...
Oh, my God!

What is muggy is holding my hand,
hugging me for a week.

The only thing I wanted from Jay
is indication

that he was interested in Paige
as well.

I would have been OK with it.
LUCA: Jay, welcome to the dog house.

# You got some bad karma. #

IAIN STIRLING:
'That's the first time

'two people being on the same Paige
has been the cause of an argument.

'Still, Charlie's having
a jolly lovely evening,

'and that's all that matters.'

You look nice, I like your outfit.

Thank you! I've gone for, like,
Barbie vibes tonight.

Um, yeah, I just wanted
to have a little chat.

Yeah, of course.
Because, er...

Yeah, you're, um, basically someone

I've had my eyes on.

I just wanted to see if you were...

open to basically
getting to know me.

Me and Andrew have got something
really, really good,

and I am really happy with Andrew,
and, like, recently,

I have been opening up to him

in ways that I haven't
to any guy before.

Like, I do genuinely
really like him. OK.

I'm happy with him at the moment,
if that makes sense.

Yeah, no, no, I get that. I, um...

If you're open to conversations,
then that's all I need, really.

Erm...
Hm.

Yeah, like, even if it's on
a friendship level -

like, the chats,
do you know what I mean?

Like, obviously,
it'll be fine, so... Yeah.

Fine. OK.

Yeah.

As far as most of the couples
in here are concerned,

they're probably one of the more
secure ones, from what I gather,

so I think she's kind of, like,
a tough egg to crack,

but I will continue to persist,
I think.

IAIN STIRLING: 'To those people
still saying Charlie's posh,

'let me tell you this -
last year he found himself in court.

'Centre Court, Wimbledon.
His family have a box.

'And Charlie's not the only one
grafting tonight.'

I said from the start, my type is
tanned, beautiful teeth, dark hair.

Yeah, you could say Davide.
Straight away.

Basically. You're my type, yes.
So...

I've gotta play it cool, come on.

But, yeah,
so how did your date go earlier?

Well, it was nice, to be honest.

Better conversation
than those I have with you.

Oh, really?!
HE LAUGHS

I'm joking. No, no, it was nice.
I mean, she's lovely.

She is, she's a lovely girl.

However, not my type of girl
on paper. No.

I'm gonna be honest. Yeah.
But whoever knows, you know?

Do you know what, this is the side
that I've been -

not waiting to see,
cos I know you're funny. Yeah.

You just are.
Like, you're just being funny now,

like, you're not even doing
anything, just making me laugh,

which is good. Erm, but yeah.

Obviously, I'm glad that it wasn't,
you know,

amazing fireworks, obviously.

Because I still want to get to know
you just as we are doing,

which is good.
Yeah.

So, what's gonna happen to me?
To you? Yeah.

Oh, I don't know. Well, we're
just still, like, vibing, chatting.

OK, vibing, yeah.
Yeah. OK.

THEY LAUGH

What do you want to happen, Davide?

No, nothing, I'm just asking.

Give it, maybe, like, two more days,
and I'll be like, yeah.

Yeah, but also, I mean, since...
Oh!

Davide!
SHE LAUGHS

So, yeah, I felt like Danica
was completely into Davide,

so I wanted to give her a gift.

That's why the kiss.

I needed to put some spicy vibes
in there.

Wow.
Why we need to wait a couple of day?

I'm not saying no!
Exactly, so...

Well...
No-one was looking, so...

DANICA LAUGHS

No, stop it. No, mm!

I mean, it was a nice conversation,
we need it to end in a nice way.

Well, you've gotta end it
in a nice way.

Now, if you want, you can stand up.

SHE LAUGHS

You're too funny.
No, you are actually too funny.

Wow, now I'm hot and flustered,
Davide.

You see? Now enjoy your night.

SHE LAUGHS

Honestly, where that kiss came from,
anyone's guess is as good as mine.

So I kind of just rolled with it,
went with it,

and I think it was
a good ice-breaker, you know?

'Charlie's heard
Ekin-Su needs some help.

POSH ACCENT: 'But it turns out this
villa hasn't hired any bloody help,

'so he's gonna have to
do it himself! Tally-ho!'

Hello, Ekin-Su.
Oh, hi.

How you doing? Oh, my God,
excuse it. It's so messy in here.

Yeah, it's a bit of a tip, isn't it?
Yeah. It's so messy here,

I'm so sorry you had to...

So, how are you?
I'm fine. Erm...

Let's just hope people don't think

that we're doing something wrong
in here again,

cos I always get the blame.

What would we be doing that's wrong?
Nothing, we're just talking.

Exactly, just
getting to know each other.

But you know how people
just like to stir shit.

But, erm... What, are you not
allowed to get to know anyone?

I am.
Do you want to?

D'you know what? I do.
You do?

I really do now.
Like, I feel like I'm...

not gonna give up
until I've found the guy

that suits me and is gonna work,
cos this is just ridiculous.

What, so, would you be interested
in getting to know me, basically?

Yeah?
I actually would.

As long as I know that...
You would?

Like, what sort of guys
do you usually go for?

I don't have a type.
You don't?

Now I REALLY don't have a type.
I just want someone who...

Just anything you can get?
No, not really.

I could go back to Davide like that.
I know that I could get him back.

Do you? Do you think that?
Yeah, bloody hell, yeah. He...

No, I don't want him.

What are you thinking?

Yeah, I'd like to get to know you,
for sure.

You didn't get put off by tonight?

No, not at all. Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We should, yeah,
see how things go, maybe.

D'you know what? I would love to.
Yeah.

Just, erm... Yeah, a new person.

You actually ticked all my boxes,
obviously, when you came in.

We had that little... What were
the boxes that had to be ticked,

out of interest? Erm, the fact
that you are someone who's my age.

I've got a pulse?
No, just somebody who's calm,

very... my sort of criteria.

Obviously, I don't know you yet,
so I'd have to find out things

of, like, what you're interested in,
what do you want in a relationship,

without sounding too full on.
Yeah.

What do you do for fun?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, that's good. Erm...

Yeah, so let's just see what happens
the next few days, I think.

OK.

Sounds good.

SHE GIGGLES
Sounds good!

I was gonna say, "cheers",
but I don't have a drink.

Yeah, cheers. Cheers. Why don't
you cheers with your hairdryer?

Bottle. Hair thing. Cheers.
Yeah, cheers.

Ooh, that's a bit saucy.
Very spicy!

It was reassuring Charlie
was happy to get to know me,

cos I thought,
after everything, you know,

I thought I might scare
the poor guy away with my fieriness.

Yay!
Someone who frickin' understands me.

'Jay's interested in Paige, but will
she stick with what she's got,

'or will a certain someone
end up on their Jacques Jones?'

How do you feel now? Like, do you
wanna, like, get to know him?

Like, do you wanna keep getting
to know Jacques? What's your vibe?

Honestly, for me, I do,
I really like Jacques.

I get on with him,
I really like his personality.

He brings out this other side of me
that's, like, fun and flirty

and giddy and all that, and I
really, really, really like that.

I do. And he makes me happy,
makes me giddy, know what I mean?

I've genuinely
not had a conversation with Jay

since he's been here.
So you don't know.

So, when Jacques came to me,
he was like,

"Oh, yeah,
I've had a conversation with Jay.

"He wants to get to know you."
And Jacques was like,

"I want you to get to know him,
it's like passing a test." Yeah.

And I'm just sitting there like,
"Jacques, all you have to do

"is turn around
and be like, 'Paige...' "

No, but that would be wrong,
if he did that.

I think what he's doing,
he's saying,

"Right, this guy
wants to get to know you.

"He's good-looking, he's whatever.

"Go get to know him
and make sure you really want me."

That's why he saying it.
Yeah.

Because what
he really wants you to do,

he wants you to go talk to Jay,
have a chat with Jay,

then go back to him and say,
"Hey, I'm not interested in him,

"I'm only interested in you."
That's what he wants.

I don't think what Jacques
is realising is that, like,

if... I'm the type of person, like,
if I feel like I have a connection,

I have something good
with one person, like,

yeah, I can have
a conversation with Jay,

but, like, my mind's not in it
with Jay, d'you know what I mean?

Like, my mind is, like,
still on, like... on him.

Babes...

Hey, you OK?

Oh, it's warm, innit?
Come on.

No, I'm all good.

No. What's going on?

I don't really wanna talk,
cos if I talk, I'll cry.

No, Paige... I'm just thinking,
I'm just gonna get ready for bed.

What's getting to you?

TEARFULLY: Just the whole, like...

Jacques thing, like...

He's like, "Yeah, go and have
your conversation with Jay,"

and whatever. I'm just like...

"But that's not really what I want."

And I'm just a bit like,
"Well, are you pushing it that hard

"because, like, you're not,
like, feeling the same way,

"or you're hoping that
somebody else is coming in

"and that you can have, like, the
green card to go ahead and do it?"

I'm not that person.

I can't put my head a bit...
for, like, everyone. I'm not.

Like, you either have
all of my effort or none of it.

It's not that I want Jacques
to be like,

"No, you can only get to know me,

"you don't get to chat
with anyone else."

That's not what I'm asking for.

Like, all I was looking for
from Jacques was, like,

a little bit of, erm...

like, reassurance, sort of thing.

I just don't know.

I just feel, like,
really confused at the minute.

I think you both need to
have that conversation tomorrow,

of, like,
where you both actually stand,

in terms of, like, are you
both on the same page or not?

Yeah, I just wish
I wasn't so emotional.

Yeah.
Do you know what I mean?

Oh, what's up?

Oh, it was just really warm.
I'm just taking my make-up off.

WHISPERS: What's up? Come on.

No, I'm good. Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm just gonna go
take the rest of my make-up off.

Speak to me.

I'm honestly not about to chat when
my face looks like this, like...

What your face looks like?
I'm not bothered.

Are you OK?

Yeah. I'm OK, thank you.
How are you?

No, you're not,
cos you've been crying.

I'm all good.

Yeah, of course I do.

You know you can tell me anything.
Mm, yeah.

I like your hair like that as well.

Can you start wearing it like that?
I like it like that.

It's a mess. A hot mess right now.

You're my hot mess, aren't you?

SHE LAUGHS

Come here.

Um...

I might, yeah. I might.

We'll see how I'm feeling.

It's not anything deep.
Don't stress.

Talk to me, and I'll see.

Hopefully I can put a smile
on your face again.

Probably.

IAIN STIRLING: 'The last page
that made me feel this emotional

'was a room service bill
they shoved under my door.

'Anyway, time for bed, everyone.'

HE SIGHS

I go upstairs, mate,
and she's upset, and I'm fucking...

It hurts...
It felt weird. Like, it hurt me.

Yeah. Was she, like, crying to you?

No, she was obviously...
I caught her crying.

Who would've known
I'd care about her crying? Yeah.

How are you feeling?
How did your talk go?

Oh! I think it's just gonna be
one of those nights.

You need a hug.

# When you wipe your tears
Do you wipe them just for me?

# Me, me, me, me, me

# Do you wipe them just for me?
Me, me, me... #

I know it's a shit situation
for you to be in.

At least he spoke to you first,
before even speaking to Paige.

I just really appreciate
you boys having my back tonight.

Yeah, boy, you know,
you're in the right, man.

You didn't do anything wrong.

I opened up to this guy.
We were, like, in a relationship.

I felt like
I've been mugged off here.

Drama, drama, drama.

# I'd pretend I was
A person driving by... #

Have you had, like,
some sugar, or something?

SHE LAUGHS
No.

Just feeling energetic
cos there's a new boy.

I'm gonna brush my teeth.

# Cos I need to prove
I wrote it just for you

# What's the need for them
When it could be just us two?... #

Are we gonna have a cuddle?

You can have a cuddle, if you want.
SHE GIGGLES

Are you a cuddly person?
I'm such a cuddly person. Are you?

Sorry!

Welcome to bed, bro.

Mate, why are you...? Why are you
not happy to see me here?

I am happy to see you, man.
Have you seen your body?

# Your hair's under my pillow
So I sleep

# And I'm dreaming of you
Leaving roses at my feet

# I'm obsessed with you
In a way I can't believe

# When you wipe your tears
Do you wipe them just for me?

# Me, me, me, me, me

# Do you wipe them just for me?
Me, me, me, me

# I'm pleading on my knees
Knees, knees, knees

# It's your touch that I need
Need, need, need. #

his first night in bed with a chap

MUSIC: 'Lockdown'
by Priya Ragu

Good morning!

# Don't leave me now... #

Good morning, Islanders! Let's pop.

# Can we get a bit closer...? #

Morning.
Morning.

# And move into the moonlight
Whoa-whoa... #

How are you?
I'm good.

Hello!
Nearly midday, innit?

Hey! Good morning, my honeys.

Good morning, my ladies!
I wanna know how you slept.

D'you know what?
I slept... I slept fine.

How's everyone feeling this morning?

I mean, it was just a bit weird,

like, sleeping with someone
who I think was faking it

the whole time with his feelings.

Do you think you handled it
in the best way possible?

Do you think, maybe,
there's a middle ground

where you should maybe... apologise
for how you handled it?

I feel like
he needs to come talk to me.

I'm open.
If he doesn't, then he doesn't.

Well, you know, at the end
of the day, you gotta do you,

gotta do what you think's right.
The only thing I'll apologise for...

Let me have a think. Nothing.

Next.
EKIN-SU LAUGHS

I won't lie, this morning,
I feel really good.

Just because, like,
I've gone with what I felt.

Obviously, I wanted to make sure
that Jacques and I were still cool.

I mean, you've been honest
to yourself,

you're being honest
to everyone else,

and if you're like that,
no-one can have a problem.

I can't thank you boys enough
for having my back.

This morning, I feel really good.
I'm a lot closer with the boys.

Erm... just for getting it
off my chest, my feelings,

how I felt towards Paige, etc.

I think I'm gonna speak to Paige.
Yeah?

But, obviously, in her own time.

I think she just wants a bit of time
to process things.

And... maybe just speak to Paige
and just see how she's feeling.

Obviously, it was a bit
of an overwhelming night for me,

and I get just a little bit
sensitive sometimes! Yeah.

Like, where does that leave you,
like, with your head,

like, with the other situation?
With Jay?

Yeah.
Erm...

Like, everyone knows,
when he first came in,

he was my type to an absolute tee,
and I was like,

"Yeah, I'd love to get to know him."
Yeah.

I'm not the type of person
that can give, like,

you know, 80% to Jacques
and 20% to somebody else.

I just... I physically can't do it,
my mindset won't be there.

How do you feel
after your first night, Charlie?

Excited for today.

I've already spoken to Tash
and Ekin-Su.

So I'm gonna have a little circle
around all the other girls,

have a little chat.

Don't really have
any particular order in mind,

but I'm just gonna, yeah...

What do you think of the new guy?

He's come in here
with beeline for you, innit?

How was the chat?

TASHA: So, he was just, like,
"I'm just gonna tell you straight,

"you know, I had my eyes on you."
And I was like,

"Me and Andrew are really good,
I'm happy with him."

Like, if I'm honest,
he's made me open up

in ways that I haven't opened up
to a guy before. So, to me...

"It's a no from me."
Yeah.

Anyone else? Ekin?

The fact that he came and checked up
on me was very sweet.

Yeah, that was really sweet.
I think that is a good green flag.

Yeah, so we'll see.

What about you, Andrew,
anything to discuss?

Er, yeah, last night
was, er... decent.

Anything happen in the bed, then?
Cos you ain't stopped smiling.

Any action between anybody?

There was a little bit,
a little bit. Oh!

Just a little bit.
Gave her some treatment.

Oh, you went to the salon, did you?
Yeah, gave her some treatment today.

He, er, filled her flask up.
Yeah.

ANDREW LAUGHS
What about you, Davide?

I know you've got news, cos you
come over with powder on your nose.

ALL: Oh!

Hey-hey!

DAVIDE: Nah, I dunno.
I'm gonna see how things go.

But, you know, I mean,
I'm single, she's single, so...

Have some fun, yeah.

I could feel
that she wanted something from me.

She's gonna be happy, in't she?
Of course. She's kissing Davide.

I made her day, probably.
HE LAUGHS

What about you, Danica?
How are you feeling?

I had a conversation
with Davide again.

I was just talking to,
literally, imagine...

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."
And he's like,

"Right, well, anyway..."
And I was like...

GASPS
Wait a second, did you kiss?

Butterflies?
Yeah.

Oh, shit! I mean, that must
mean something on his end, then.

He must obviously...
Yeah, he's not that kind of guy

to just give away a kiss,
I don't think.

Yeah... maybe.

Good for you, Davide!
I'm glad you did that.

Yeah, literally. D'you know why?

Cos it takes him a lot
to make a move. Yeah.

And that's why I'm proud of him.
Oh, OK.

That's a good thing, he did that.

Well, it was very ballsy of him.
Listen, I think he likes you.

I wasn't expecting it at all.

Well, cheers to your first kiss
in the villa, babe.

Cheers too many more kisses
in ze villa!

'You're gonna have to give
Davide a second, guys.

'He's still thinking
about that kiss with Danica.

'While he sorts himself out,

'Charlie's gonna get physical
with Ekin-Su.'

Just doing a workout with Ekin-Su.

Do your thing, man.

See you in a bit, boys.
See ya.

She's like a butterfly.
THEY LAUGH

Goes from flower to flower.

Come on. One more.

'The moment Jay said
he fancied Paige,

'she went to bed early, in tears.

'Jay, if I know women -
and I don't -

'I reckon she's interested, mate.'

Have you spoken to Jay this morning,
or at all since yesterday? No.

How do you genuinely feel
about that situation?

I know this is really,
really dramatic, but in my head,

I feel like it would almost be
like cheating... Yeah.

..if I was speaking to another guy.
I know what you mean.

But that's because
you're loyal at heart,

do you know what I mean?
You do one at a time.

There's nothing wrong with that.
But you're not.

Like, really,
you're nobody's girlfriend.

You're getting to know him.

Maybe just see,
even have a conversation.

If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Paige should get to know Jay.

I mean, I feel like she should
give herself that chance

because she did say at the start,
just by looks-wise,

when Jay walked in,
he was her type to a tee,

so I just wouldn't want her
to close herself off

because you never know.

I'm not gonna go out of my way
to chat to him... Yeah.

..but if he does pull me,

I just hope that it's a normal
conversation, like, it's not...

Keep it light, keep it flirty.
Keep it just chit-chat.

Just getting to know, and then...
You'll see?

Like, respectfully speaking,

I feel like if somebody
was to come in here for Jacques,

he would give them a shot.
Hm. Yeah.

No, you are talking complete sense.
I do get it.

I'd be stupid to, like,
cut myself off

and close myself off so early on.

I just need to relax a little bit
and realise,

"Paige, it's only
a bloody conversation.

"He was your type to a tee
when he came in,

"so one little conversation
isn't actually gonna harm."

'Get ready for the final instalment
of the Ekin-Su trilogy -

'There's Nothing Wrong With You
Wanting To Know Somebody Else.'

IAIN SNORTS

'I'm a huge fan of the Love Island
multiverse.'

Ekin, do you wanna have
a quick talk? Er, yeah.

Do you wanna go...?
We can go down there if you want.

I just wanted to get your feelings
on last night.

I don't want there to be any...
animosity.

There's nothing wrong with you
wanting to know somebody else. Yeah.

What I was just, I think,
angry about is

I wish you gave me some sort of...
bit of a clue before

and just said, like, "I like Paige."

If you said to me at the start,

"Ekin, like, I want to
get to know you and Paige,"

I wouldn't have opened myself up
that much to you.

Do you understand?

There wasn't, like, a eureka moment
where I was like,

"Ah, you know, I want to
get to know Paige," it just...

I guess it was just gradual...
I wish you told me, darling.

I was like, "Paige?! Like, what?"

Yeah. I would have been calm
if I'd known... Mm-hm.

..just a little bit
you were interested in her. Yeah.

I'm not a bitch.
I'm not gonna stop you. Mm-hm.

I did genuinely start to have
these feelings towards you,

and I thought, "Shit."

No, I understand. I understand.

I just... I would hate it if,
you know, you and I were building,

and I just had that feeling of,
"what if?"

and I didn't get to explore it.

And that's why I just felt like
I had to say something now.

I'm glad you did.

You're honest, but I think
it was in the wrong order.

But, again, I might talk to Paige
later and, you know,

and I might get to know her
a bit more and realise,

"That's not for me." That's not,
"I'll come crawling back".

I've made my bed, I'll lie in it.

Italian's such a nice language,
though.

It's one of my favourite languages.
Yeah.

Like, to listen to.
It's a nice, like, flowy language.

Yeah, a lot of people have told me
it looks like I'm singing

when I'm speaking, you know?
Yeah. I think my accent's OK.

How do you say "thank you"?
Is it "grazie" or "grazia"? Grazie.

Grazie.
Yeah.

In Greek, thank you is "efcharisto".
Efcharisto, yeah? Yeah.

I knew it.
You knew that one?

I know a few words, but I forget.

I remember just "kalispera".
Kalispera.

THEY LAUGH

Have you got my name now?
Yeah, Antigoni. Yeah.

THEY LAUGH
It took you a while.

In order to get to know better,
both of them,

I will probably need to kiss her.

So, last night,
I did it with Danica,

and let's see if there is
a situation in which I will...

I will have the chance to kiss
Antigoni.

Probably, I will do with her
as well.

How did your chat just go now
with Ekin-Su?

It was good, man, I just, like...
Like, what did you talk about?

I just wanted to clear the air
with her and just let her know that

I think her and I have to
move on now, like... You know?

She has to do her, and I'll do me.

I was wondering if you potentially
had a change of heart?

Nah, man. Don't worry.

THEY LAUGH,
TEXT ALERT

I got a text!

THEY WHOOP

READS ALOUD:

You and Tash.
It might be you and Tash.

Have a good time, man.

I'm gonna pick... Ekin-Su and...

er, Tasha.

I knew it. I fucking knew it, bro.
I fucking knew it, man.

THEY CLAP
Sorry.

Oh, my God, I'm actually excited.
I need this.

Yeah, you should be.

I reckon Ek and him will get it on,
I'm telling you.

Ah!

Go in there like a raging bull,
mate. Course, mate.

# Why I gotta do this
The hard way...? #

Have you got anything I can borrow?
I'll give you one of mine.

So sweet.

# Something I'll regret
In the morning... #

Do you have your chat up ready?

What you wanna talk about?
What you're gonna ask?

Not yet. I'm gonna...
You need any tips?

Ask Andrew to give you tips.
Give me your tips.

Well, well,
this is where you start...

I can't close myself off from him
just because, yeah...

I know I'm happy with Andrew
and stuff,

but at the same time...
It's just hard.

I feel really lucky, and I feel like
I needed this and I'm buzzing.

# You know I sleep
On the left side... #

Tasha, how are you feeling?
I'm actually so nervous.

How you feeling, though?
Are you excited?

Yeah, I'm excited, mate.
Have you had a hot tub first date?

Never, mate.
It might work for you, then.

I need to put myself first.
Thank you. Like, seriously.

# Why I gotta do this
The hard way...? #

Let's go!

I'm a little bit nervous,
I don't know why.

Oh, sorry, after you.

# I lie in bed
But I'd rather be in yours... #

IAIN STIRLING:
'Charlie's finding out something

'that viewers of Love Island
know all too well -

'if you spend time with Ekin-Su,
sooner or later,

'you're gonna end up in hot water.'

Here we go.
Oh, wow!

Oh, my God.
Wow, this is actually very nice.

They've got Champagne, strawberries!
Champagne, strawberries.

Oh, my God, I'm so excited.

CORK POPS
Wah! Whoo!

Yay!

# Couldn't be better
It's all I ever wanted... #

Thank you very much.
No problem.

Cheers.

So, Charlie, what would you say
your best feature about yourself,

personality-wise, would be?

I'm not talking about looks,
but your trait would be.

Relationship-wise, I'd say I'm...

Once I'm in a relationship,
I'm, like, fully in and committed.

I'm a bit of
an all-or-nothing person.

Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Does that surprise you?
A bit. Why?

I mean, it takes a confident guy
to admit that.

I've not had anyone
who's said that to me yet.

Did you grow up in London or Turkey?
Erm, London.

So, I'm originally from London,
then I moved to Essex.

So, your mum is...?
They're both Turkish.

My mum's a counsellor.
She's a therapist.

Nice. Relationship coach.
Really?

So, like, what's,
like, the advice she's given you?

It's actually really simple.
Yeah?

Be yourself and be with somebody
who accepts you for you.

And... make sure you get along
as friends first. OK.

So you need to be, like...
Comfortable.

We'd need to be friends before
anything happened, basically. No!

No, as in, we can talk.

So you can friend-zone me,
basically?

D'you want me to friend-zone you?
It's up to you.

SHE LAUGHS

Do you wanna pass the strawberries?
Let's have one of those.

There you go.
Oh, you're gonna feed me, are you?

No, no, no,
I'll just take it, actually.

SHE LAUGHS

Mm, very good.

You got some chocolate on your lip.
Great (!) Whereabouts?

Just... Just there.

There you go.
Thank you.

Ooh!

Saucy.
Saucy.

'As an investment analyst,
Jay's obsessed with interest rates.

'Take Paige, for example.

'Is there any interest?
And does she rate him?'

Paige, can I talk to you
for a minute? Yeah, of course.

DAMI: Her ass definitely
does jiggle, huh?

How're you doing, you OK?
Yeah, I'm good.

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

You got the memo, we wear pink.
Yeah.

PAIGE LAUGHS
Just me and you!

Yeah, no, I just wanted to just...
er, just talk to you.

Obviously, I wanted to be
a little bit more organic,

but I think, er...

Oh, OK. That's fair enough.
Yeah, just, erm...

Yeah, obviously,
things were a bit... mad last night.

Mm, just a tiny bit!

Yeah, but just thought
I'd get to know you, Paige.

Just, like, I felt -
don't know if you felt it -

like there was
maybe something there.

Definitely on my first day,
when I arrived here... Yeah.

..I felt like you were the first
person, like, I was quite drawn to.

And then I remember, like,
you sat next to me on the fire pit.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, you were on my...
Where were we?

You were on my left.
And I just remember, thinking, like,

"Paige really is someone I would
actually want to get to know."

Oh, yeah, for sure.
Like, 100%. As soon as you came in,

I was like, "Yeah, I would love
to get to know him."

And then... yeah, a week went by
and you just weren't arsed.

I was like...
Like, "All right, Jay, see you!"

If you are feeling like,
"That's fucking pissing me off,"

and you wanna just bounce off...
Mate, it's not pissing me off

because I knew it was coming.

Thing is with me, I always prepare
myself for the worst. Yeah, OK.

Obviously, it's not nice to see,
is it? No, it's jarring.

Someone you care about
talking to another fella.

And they're sitting there laughing.

I think you've handled it
really well, by the way.

I think that your attitude is, like,
"I really like you,

"I'm really into you,
but do your thing." Yeah, exactly.

At the end of the day,

if somebody's gonna go,
they're gonna go.

So, what's your, like, ideal Sunday?
For me?

Yeah.
Depends who I'm with.

If I'm with my partner...

Yeah, go with it
if you were with a partner.

Generally, I would make them food in
the morning, we'd have it together.

Yeah.
Erm...

Maybe some morning sex.
THEY LAUGH

And then probably, yeah,
just, like, go on a nice wee walk.

Yeah, what about you?
Perfect Sunday...

So, we're going out for breakfast.
Probably something unhealthy,

like waffles and chocolate
and strawberries.

Favourite breakfast. It's a Sunday,
you gotta treat yourself. Yeah.

And then go for a nice long walk,
go get your Sunday dinner,

then spa, bit of a chill day,
and then home, Netflix,

and then something rubbish
in the night, like a takeaway.

I think he was quite respectful

in the way he went about
our conversation.

But I'd be open to having some more
conversations with him, for sure.

But at the same time, like,

I'm still gonna do my thing
with Jacques,

still get to know them both.

'Ekin-Su's really enjoying
the bubbles in the hot tub,

'which is weird,
because we hadn't plugged it in!'

IAIN MOCK GASPS
'Toot-toot, Charles!'

As much as I've had a lovely time
with you in this hot tub,

heated up, conversations,
bit of bubbly,

I shall leave you with Tasha...
OK, great.

..and I hope your date goes well.
Thank you very much.

And I will see you soon. Bye!

TASHA: Oh, she's out.

Hey!
Hey, guys.

ISLANDERS GREET EKIN-SU

Tash, it's your turn, my love,
you're gonna go next.

He's waiting for you.
I have to go?

Yeah.
DAMI: Go on, Tash.

THEY WHOOP
You go, girl! Mm-mm-mm! Whoo!

INDIYAH: Have fun on your date!
DAVIDE: Enjoy, Tasha.

Thank you.
Have a good time.

DOOR CREAKS
Oh!

Ah!
Hello.

Hi.
How are you, Tasha?

This is cute.

Whoa! OK, it's warm in here.
Yeah, it's very warm.

Wowser.

Right... where do I sit?

Anywhere you like.
Ooh!

I thought I'd...
get you as one of the dates.

Be good to get to know you
a bit better. Yeah.

I didn't expect it, if I'm honest.
Really?

Yeah, I didn't expect it one bit.

Oh, my God! Hey!
Wowsers.

Why's that?
I dunno.

I thought maybe you'd be put off.

Put off by us having a chat?
Yeah, last night.

Are you, like,
opposed to getting to know me, then,

off the back of our conversation
last night?

Have I read it wrong?

No. I mean,
I'm open to have a conversation.

I've come in here open-minded,
you know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I've not come in here
being closed off, like...

This is what I'm here for,
I'm here to explore, and... Yeah.

..as hard as it is,
it's one of those situations

that I just have to...
Do you know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, I know.
I get, like... I think, for me,

I wanna go on a date with someone
that I have a genuine interest in,

rather than just going on a date
with someone for the sake of it.

Yeah. Obviously, I'm fully
respectful of your situation...

100%.
..with Andrew and stuff,

but, like, there's no harm in us

sort of just getting to know
each other a bit more.

Exactly.
Yeah, there's no harm at all.

'Charlie's been stuck
in that hot tub three hours

'and necked two bottles of Prosecco
without a toilet break.

'You won't be surprised to hear,

'it's both warmer and fuller
than when he got in.'

I'm not gonna
obviously waffle on about it.

All I wanna say is
I was very surprised.

OK. Pleasantly surprised?
Happy surprised?

Very surprised. Because it was just,
I felt like I relaxed Charlie.

There was no being fake,
there was no putting on a front.

Had a lot of giggles,
laughed, enjoyed it.

The conversation...
He asked me questions.

OK.
Oh, really? Well, that's good.

It's not about the looks now.

I'm gonna try something new
and not go for something

that I'd initially go for because
it's never worked out for me.

Guys, do you think Tasha
will turn her head for Charlie?

I think...
Yeah, bro, we do as well.

Speak your mind, bro.
I think, if I'm honest...

is he gonna turn Tasha's head?

He's on par with Andrew, isn't he?

Yeah, but I don't think
he's got enough about him.

She'd rather
just stay with Andrew. Yeah.

He's not summat to just jump on,
is he?

That's not her type on paper,
I'm telling you.

I feel like Tasha likes
something a bit bad.

Something, like, bad.
Andrew's not bad.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
But I feel like...

He looks more bad than Andrew.
It's still early, guys.

So, you... Basically you do dancing
and modelling? Yeah.

And dancing takes up, like,
the majority of your time, or...?

Probably modelling, if I'm honest.

I've only been modelling
for a good year and a half,

so it is quite fresh still.

But yeah, I'd like to carry on
with it, hopefully.

What, so you basically got scouted
recently, basically?

Yeah.
OK.

That's quite flattering, right?

Yeah, course. I didn't expect it.

If I got scouted to be a model,
I would be like...

my confidence would go
through the roof, I reckon.

Yeah. You could be a model, though.
No.

Yeah, you could.
That's very kind of you to say.

You've got the face for it.

Well, it was great
to have a date with you.

It was. It was a good one.
It was a good date.

Let's cheers to that...
Yeah.

..and to getting to know you more.
100%.

Yeah, it was a great afternoon,
two dates in the hot tub with,

like, two of the girls
that I wanted to get to know.

So, yeah, really successful day
for me.

Here they are! Come, come, come!

Fresh out of the hot tub!

Quick! You've got
to tell me everything.

ANTIGONI: Find my little thing here.

Yeah, it was interesting.
Interesting?

It was a nice date.

GEMMA: Was it better
than you expected?

It went better than I expected,
yeah. Right, OK.

How was your dates?

Yeah, first one was with Ekin-Su,
was good.

Quite flirty. Yeah.
Got on well.

Tash, it was good as well,
just sort of like, you know,

getting to know each other,
given your situation.

You know that I'm interested in her.
You think she's interested in you?

Uh, I dunno, like, it's...
Was it reciprocated?

It's a very, like, open situation,
I think.

But more Ekin?

No, it's like, both of them are
really fun. Had a good time.

Super sweet, actually, and I think,

yeah, like, when he's one on one,
he's very different

to being around people.
Yeah.

100% see that.

Every now and then, there was
probably a little bit of a... flirt.

Yeah, I think overall,
it was a nice date.

So what's, like,
what are you gonna do now?

How has that left your head?
Would your head turn?

Is your head just, like, at a,
maybe like a 90-degree angle?

Would you go on another date
with him?

Probably, yeah.

There's just something about Charlie
that does intrigue me.

I just don't know what it is yet.
Maybe it's his personality,

that quality
that Andrew doesn't have.

What are you gonna say to Andrew?

I don't know. He's so...

He's different to Andrew in terms
of, like, he's more like mysterious,

I think,
is the best way to explain it.

Are you open to know... to know
Charlie as well as Andrew now?

I don't... I don't know.

# Nothing's fair
In love and war... #

You're in a situation
where what you've had with Andrew,

it's moving fast
and it is quite intense,

but you're here for you,

and you have to find
the best connection for you.

I agree with you.

# In love and war. #

"Islanders, tonight,
there'll be a re-coupling."

Yeah. One minute Tasha
wanted to leave with me,

and now
she wants to get to know him. Hmm!

You know what? Fuck this.
