Temptation Island (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Single Again - full transcript

Previously on...

Welcome, you guys!
- This is it.

We're going on this
to be together

or start new lives.

Stop.

I hope you're ready,
because your journey

begins right now.

Oh, my God.

- Let's be best friends...
- Okay. Yeah.

And then maybe even lovers.

There's so much temptation
out there.



Take care of your man,
or you'll lose him.

Does anyone wanna know
about me at all?

So I definitely
see some people clashing.

Chocolate
and you get the vanilla.

Each one of you can use this
to block a single

from dating your partner.
- John.

She's got the fangs out,
and she's here to play dirty.

It's a very real possibility
this is goodbye forever.

- Don't cut me off.
Let me speak.

Is Shari the one for me

or should I take
a whole different route?

I'm hoping that, like,
he realizes

how much, like,
we love each other...

because he's... he's my person.



You're not gonna tempt me.

Yeah.

This is some heavy, heavy stuff
for sure.

Evan was getting so emotional,
and I was just like, trying to

be like, "We're gonna be good.
Like, don't worry."

Saying goodbye to Evan was
definitely a lot more difficult

than I thought it would be.

It's crazy. Like,
we're basically "single,"

and he's with girls right now,
and these girls are confident.

They're ready to...
They're ready to get my guy,

and my guy's frickin' hot.

Oh, my God. Can I change?

After spending my last dinner
fighting again with Javen,

um, I feel a little
disconnected.

- Ladies, ladies.
- Hello. Welcome back.

The longest we've been apart

was when Javen went away
for college.

During that time,
he did have his infidelities,

so Javen is very much still
on my mind,

and it's hard for me to focus
on the singles.

- How was dinner with everybody?
- It's good.

Good.

- Good!
- It was interesting. Yeah.

Do you guys wanna go put some
PJs on and hang out or, uh,

are we just calling tonight?

- I need some wine.
I need to change.

- We'll pajama and wine it.
- Well, don't be too excited.

I feel that the girls are
being very standoffish.

It's like they're scared
to talk to us.

What are you scared about?

I got a lot of love
in this little body.

Let me spread it out like butter
on a multigrain bread.

- Hello!
- Is that just straight vodka?

No, it's vodka, Coke, and water.

- Oh, no. I'm a lightweight.
Like, I'll get drunk so easily.

- I've been waiting for you.
So do you do ice in wine,

or is that, like... really?
- Yeah. I don't care.

All right, let me get you
some ice, then.

I always had my eye on Shari.

I'm a smooth criminal, man.
I'm just gonna be myself

and then
hopefully she'll like me.

I'm gonna try to, you know,
warm her up

and see if she can
open up a bit.

- How was tonight?
- It was...

It was cool.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.
- You kinda seem upset, though.

- No, I... Why...
Why do I seem upset?

I've just seen you pacing

and, you know,
walking around here...

- What? Right now?
- Yeah.

I'm a little anxious to meet
the singles because

I haven't really conversed
with single men

for eight years, so this is
just bizarre to me.

All the girls in the house are
calling me the forbidden fruit.

- The forbidden fruit?
That's funny.

So, yeah, I'm blocked,

t I mean,
John and I live together.

I'm not gonna let the block
stop me

from having conversations
with him

and really try
to get to know him

because he is the one
I'm most interested in by far,

and so I definitely am going to

pretend that
this isn't even here.

I mean, 'cause it's just kind of
a bummer. I mean...

And so we can still hang out,
though.

Exactly.

Kathryn is very attractive,

but Kathryn came in kinda
hot and heavy,

and it kinda put me on guard.

Hey, wait a second. Whoa.

Hell, no. We... We are 100%
in this. You know, like...

She should've. I was like,
"That was a mistake, honey."

Mistake.
- Wrong move.

Who should... Oh, no.

I feel like
that's a loaded question.

- That's loaded.
- I don't care if it's loaded.

You have to answer the question.
- Hmm?

Yes.

- Just keep drinking.
- You know, I, uh,

I'm a sucker for, you know,
natural beauties.

Brittney!

- It could have been Brittney.
- Yeah!

Mm! I'm pretty natural.

It doesn't take me three hours
to get ready.

I'm not gonna be too thirsty

'cause I'm assuming that's what
the other girls are gonna do

and I think that'll make me
stand out,

so that's my game plan.

I need something real, you know,

and so if it's not with,
you know, Kaci,

then maybe it's
with one of you guys.

I love Kaci, okay? But, like,
she wants a ring on the finger

and I want to get down
on one knee.

I just, like,
I just don't think it's now.

I'm 100% committed
to this process.

Maybe the grass is greener,
maybe it's not.

But I'm definitely gonna
find out.

To "Temptation Island" and
finding what our heart desires.

- All right! Cheers!
- Whoo!

Cheers.

You know, when I see
eight chairs,

I know that Kaci's about to
be back at the beach villa.

I was pretty upset.
It's just hard for me

to get in the right mindset with
prying eyes on us, you know?

- Hello, everybody.
- Hi.

- You all look great.
Gentlemen, nice to see you.

Ladies, nice to see you.
What a great day to be here

on the island,
wouldn't you agree?

- Yeah.
- Beautiful.

- And today's a big day.
We've got some work to do

because it's time to choose
your dates.

"Awkward" is just like
the perfect word to describe

how I feel right now.
I just wasn't expecting to have

to choose our dates
in front of each other.

First date selection,
let's do it.

Karl, you get to go first.
Are you ready?

- I'm ready.
- Just go over and pick the one

you wanna go on a date with
and bring her back here.

- Sheldyn.
- Aw!

- Get it, girl.
- I'm shocked.

I picked Sheldyn. I felt like

the whole room
just kinda stopped,

but I think she's
a good-looking girl.

First date, I wanna get
to know Sheldyn a little more,

explore her mind
and see how she feels

about the dating experience
with me.

All right, John,
it's your turn. Let's get to it.

All right.

Hannah. All right.

Okay.

I knew it.

I knew that John was gonna
pick Hannah.

She's really pretty.

She's got the blonde hair.
She's got the look.

I think he would have chose
Kathryn if I had blocked Hannah.

I mean, it's...
what are you gonna do?

- Javen, you're next.
You ready to go?

- I'm ready.
- Let me see your happy face.

There you go. All right.

Go get 'em, Javen.

- Can I choose you, Kayla?
- Yes.

- All right.
- Kayla!

- Yeah!
- All right.

Oh, God. Javen's pick seems
like she's a nice girl,

but I mean, they all are here
technically to date our men,

so, like, I'm not gonna be naive
in that fact,

but at the same time,
I'm not concerned,

that he's gonna, like,
fall in love with anyone.

Evan, it's your turn.

- Brittney?
- Brittney!

Ah! That makes sense.

All right!

I'm definitely
pleasantly surprised.

I thought he was gonna go
for maybe one of

the cattier girls that's
a little bit more aggressive,

and I don't know her,
but she seems like she might be

a little bit more laid-back.

I think he's going into this
in a very mature mindset,

and that makes me proud of him.

All right, ladies,
now it's your turn

to pick your dates, and, Shari,
you get to go first.

Yeah.

Shari and James, all right.

- My girlfriend is a...
She's like a queen.

- Congratulations.
- Appreciate it, brother.

She's very demanding,
and I expect these guys to work.

They should not have it easy.

Like, I don't have it easy,
to be honest.

They're gonna see.
They're in for a rude surprise.

Kaci, your turn.

Carlos.
- Oh, wow.

So Kaci chose Carlos.
I think that she chose him

because of the confidence,
you know?

She's drawn to confidence.
That's how I got her.

- The pride of Havana.
- Thank you. Yeah.

- "Pride of Havana."
Doesn't make me feel great,

but, you know, I ain't worried
about, you know, Mr. Cuba.

- Congratulations, Carlos.
- Thank you.

Nicole, are you ready?

- Oh.
- Okay, Tyler. Going on a date.

Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Okay, Kady, you've had
to wait the longest. Your turn.

Hmm. Johnny.

- I called it.
- Did you?

All right. He's like,
"Ah, who knew?"

All right, well, you did it.

Now that the dates
have been selected,

what are you feeling?

Are you surprised at all, Karl?

I know she likes chocolate,
so...

She's definitely a couple,

but I'm surprised
she picked him.

Well, you know,
there's all kinds of flavors

of chocolate, too.

That's true. That's true.

- Nicole?
- I honestly kind of feel like

he picked someone he wasn't
attracted to

so he wouldn't be tempted.
- Ooh.

- Wow.
Nicole's read was way off.

Ain't nothing wrong
with Sheldyn.

Sheldyn's a good-looking girl.
She's... She's cool.

Shari, what was your reaction
to Javen's choice?

I mean, honestly, she seems
like a really nice girl,

like,
compared to the other girls.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

All right.

So your dates will start
tomorrow morning.

Have a great time.
I will see you tomorrow night.

All right?
- All right.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

I now feel like
it's actually happening,

and we're on this journey,
and I never thought I'd put

our relationship in jeopardy
like this.

Let's toast it up tonight!

I wanna be like this little,
like, blonde girly girl

with a sleeve. Like,
it's a secret dream of mine.

- I would love that.
I love you already,

- but I would love that.
- Thank you!

Right?
- Mm-hmm.

One thing I give my boyfriend
a hard time for,

being from Dallas...
- Yeah.

- He's from the city.
- Yeah.

The city boy. He's just not
as manly, I suppose...

- Right.
- And I hate to use

the word "manly," but I'm
always, like, wanting to do

outdoor things, active things.

Like if we were
to have children,

he wouldn't be able to teach
our sons

how to do that kind of stuff.

Yes! Yeah.

Definitely had something in mind
of, like, the type of man

I wanted to marry, and John
doesn't exactly fit that bill.

Definitely has those wandering
moments or wandering thoughts

of, you know, is there
something better out there?

Is there someone better-suited
for me out there?

It's so hard to say.
It's really unclear.

Let me ask you this.

Have you ever talked to
a black man before?

Have you ever been attracted
to one?

- No. The answer's no.
The answer's no,

but I will tell you, I really
enjoyed our conversation.

- I did, too.
- I literally feel

so comfortable talking to you,
and you t...

- Give me a light little hug.
Bring it in.

No, but you... You know,
let's go join the party.

- Hello, hello.
- Hey, hey.

- You good out here?
- Yeah, just, like,

clearing my head.

I miss Javen so much.

I just feel, like, really just,
like, guilty

even engaging in conversations.
I can't help thinking,

is he gonna perceive this
the wrong way?

You excited for your date
tomorrow?

- Uh...
- Our date tomorrow?

- No?
- I'm excited to get out

of the house.
- As ecstatic as I was

that you chose me...

I mean, you know, you've been
very, uh, reserved, so...

Yeah, 'cause I still feel like
people are, like,

getting to know us,
and initially,

that is really intimidating.
- Yeah.

- You know?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, definitely, I know.

I'm experiencing it very well.

You're experiencing it
right now.

Mm-hmm.

- Salud!
- How'd you feel about today,

like, with your man? It's gotta
be, like, a little stressful.

- I felt, like, butterflies.
I was like, oh, my God.

Like, the girl's going on
a date with my boyfriend.

I'm going on a date with a guy.

Like, it's getting real
for sure.

I'm not into Evan going
on a date with Brittney.

It definitely terrifies me.

Are you worried
about these girls?

They seem pretty aggressive.
I feel like they're

on a different...
- No, they're gonna rage, and...

They already probably are
right now.

Yeah.

Do it, do it! Do it!

We're literally here
to find love, and, like,

we're here to find, like,
to connect with everyone.

So it's like,
think about these...

Think about these dudes
having girlfriends.

Whoo!

I'm a strong, independent woman.

I taught her well.

- You come up with it.
- Yeah, that's on you.

- Tomorrow is the beginning.
- Look at this.

You are something else.

I'm really excited for my date
with Evan.

I feel like he's the most
genuine guy here.

I'm just hoping that this leads
to something incredible

and life-changing.

You're making more of a face
than I am.

You're like...

- I'll show you the king's room.
- Ohh!

I've been looking for love
for a while, and, like,

sometimes I think I find it
and I'm just, like, wrong a lot.

- Behold.
- Where the magic happened.

I'm looking
for someone crazy like me

who has stories,
kind of that YOLO mentality.

And I like abs.

What about your relationship?
What brought you here?

Just reassurance, knowing that
you are with the right person.

Nowadays, men, commitment...
It's just...

It's a big thing.
- It's rare.

And to commit
and be for real, like...

- Yeah.
- It's hard.

And I'm not a saint.

I think about Nicole
and what she's doing.

I believe we both have
some trust issues.

When I met her,
she had a boyfriend at the time,

and she broke up with him.

I don't even wanna think
about Nicole

walking around half-naked
around other men.

Have you ever gone on a date
with a blonde?

No, I've never have been
on a date with a blonde.

Really?

Kathryn's about to change
your life. Just kidding!

You guys are something else.

As soon as we get
that tequila, it's on.

You're taking a shot with us.

I'm-a take a shot with you guys.

I have a problem with attention,
and that's how I ended up

cheating on my girlfriend,
but I feel special.

- So how's tonight been?
Have you had fun?

I had fun, probably too
much fun for a night, but...

I have this weird, like,
Shari back in my head,

like, she's on my shoulder

like, "Javen, you know,
I'm a... you up."

I wanted to talk to you
because I just feel like...

I'm not touching women.

I've been touched
a few times on my shoulder

and girls try to hug me,
I give a little shorter hug.

I know my girlfriend
might not like that.

- I don't know why.
There's something about you

that, like, I literally,
I can't shake.

Thank you.

Javen, Javen, Javen, Javen,
Javen.

What am I to do?

I am really attracted to you,

and I don't know what to do
with my hands.

Please do not touch me.

- Like...
- Will you go over there

and grab them?
- Can I get a drink?

I gotta pee, too.
- Yeah.

, I... ed up.
I... ed up. I... ed up.

Oh, I can't hold hands, though.
But no problem.

Arm. I'll grab you.

- I can't take this back.
I did it already.

It just happened,
and I've been drinking.

All right, nice talking to you.

What'd I just do?

Please pray for me, America.

I'm so sorry, Shari.

Are you going to bed?

I'm going to bed.

What you doing?
Yo, why are you so quiet?

You know, you're not like this.
Is it 'cause Morgan's not here?

Why are you saying that?

You're the most animated
when Morgan's around.

I just, you know,
I'm just gonna say...

- No. It's... No.
Morgan's my best friend

in this house,
but at the end of the day,

I'm here for a shot at love.
I wanna have fun. I wanna flirt.

I wanna flirt with Evan, and I
wanna see what comes of it.

I'm a flirty person.

Can we do a confessional
together?

- You want to?
- Yeah.

- It's open. Let's go.
- Okay, let's do it.

- Oh. No.
- No way.

, dude.

He's up till the wee hours
in the morning

in the private room
with Kathryn?

Like, this is horseshit.
I'd be pissed.

I feel so bad for Brittney.

- What's up?
- You didn't ask me

for any time together.
- You haven't pursued

anything with me, you know,
I've been...

- I am now.
- Oh, well, now you are.

But, like, this is brand-new.
It's I'm going to bed.

I was, you know...
What?

It's like, just, like,
respect, like

if you were going on a date
with someone tomorrow,

I wouldn't be doing this.
- Yeah, I would feel

super disrespectful.
- I wouldn't be doing this.

- What's going on?
- Morgan likes you.

- Okay. All right.
I had no idea.

Yeah. I mean, we talked but...
- That's my best friend. So...

- Hi.
- Hi.

What the hell are you doing?

- Doing a confesh.
- You're being such

a good friend right now.
- I know. Such a... Come here!

Will you come here?

- I will not.
- Why?

Why are you so mad?
- We can make room.

- I'm not mad.
I'm not mad for me.

What do you mean?

- I'm actually going to bed.
I don't wanna do this.

- What's going on?
- She's so mad.

Well, why don't you talk
to Morgan?

- What do I say?
- I don't know.

I had told Kathryn that I was
the most attracted to Evan,

and it kinda, like, blew up
in my face.

I do not have a crush on Evan.
I just don't. Like, I don't.

I don't.

Man.

Goodness God.
- Speak of the Devil.

Am I the Devil?

You might be.
- Evan is supposed to go

on a date with Brittney, but in
the wee hours of the morning,

he's in his confessional,

so it appeared that there was
something hanky-panky going on.

Now what are you talking about?

I was just saying that you have

a 6 A.M. date with Brittney...
- Uh-huh.

And, like, up to the wee hours
in the private confessional room

with Kathryn.
- Well, now, no...

- And I'm like, wow.
- I don't know what

you have planned or what's
going on with this date.

- Oh, my God.
- But you might wanna have

a conversation with Brittney
before your date.

I'm not one to get
in the middle of friends.

That's a lie. I have definitely
been in these situations before.

I felt like I was back
in college days all over again.

And I just... I didn't want that
here, you know?

Listen, you just said
I was jealous!

I opened the door because
we are friends,

and you just insulted me
in the worst way.

I don't think you're jealous.

- Listen to everybody else!
Shut up!

I literally don't know
what the drama was about.

Why am I not sleeping right now?

It's like 1:00 in the morning.

I have to be up in, like,
five hours

to go on our first date.

This is bullshit.

- I don't know...
I don't like Evan.

I don't even need a thing...
- You're mad because you

heard me talk
in the confessional.

- I'm not mad.
I'm not mad about that.

As my friend,
why would you open it

and just run off and be like,
ah, I'm gonna be a little rat?

Because I am not comfortable
with it.

Then shut the... up!

It's not your goddamn
ing confessional!

Okay, Kathryn, I'm inviting
Evan into our room.

Don't care if you like it
or not.

Kathryn, this is crazy.

You said that you just didn't
wanna talk in the kitchen

publicly because you knew that
she had a crush on me, okay?

She has a crush on me.
- So good.

"Morgan, you have a crush on me.

You... You have a crush on me."

Okay? Hmm.

This is about her, not me.
And I'm really pissed.

And I didn't say that Morgan
had a crush on you.

- You did, Kathryn. You said...
- I said...

You just told me
I was a... ing jealous whore.

So come here, come here,
come here, come here.

This is... This is...
- You keep saying shit

that you don't know
what you're saying.

- No, I said...
- And I can see you saying it.

- I know.
- Jesus.

You were being disrespectful
to her,

and I was trying to save you.

I don't understand why
any of this is happening.

I think these girls are
really upset.

I don't know why
all this drama is happening.

- Right.
- I'm tired,

and I can't deal with this
right now

if I'm supposed to wake up
in six hours.

I don't know that I can
wake up in six hours.

Oh, man.

This is gonna be beautiful.

Have you ever driven like
a go-kart

or anything similar?
- Nah.

Hopefully, we won't flip it.

- Don't say that.
- Oh, thank you.

I'm going on my first date

here on the island
with Brittney.

I'm a nervous wreck because

we had a messy night beforehand,

so I need to make it right
because everything's screwed up

before it even starts.

- Thank you.
- The first date is gonna be

kind of awkward for me.
I love my girlfriend.

And I've been with her
for eight years, almost nine.

So I don't know how to react
to things.

I don't know how Kayla is gonna
react to me.

I'm kinda...

a little nervous, but I'm
looking forward to having fun.

- Whoo!
- Hit it.

I'm really excited about
these excursion dates,

but I'm a little nervous.
Kady and I, we've been dating

for two years and eight months,
so, yeah,

I feel like I need to dust
the cobwebs off.

Wow, this is beautiful.

Oh, the last time I went
on a first date

was eight years ago, so it's
a lot for me to take in.

It's definitely
an awkward situation for me

compared to the other girls.

- Ahh. How pretty is this?
- This is incredible.

I've never, never been
on a date snorkeling.

I think snorkeling
with the right person

could totally be romantic.

Carlos really stood out to me
'cause he's so cute,

the little dimples.

He has that whole, like,
Latin lover vibe.

So, yeah, it's super cute.

What does your family think
about you doing this?

So, to them,
it was a little like,

"Are you sure you wanna
do this?"

And to me, there was no doubt
in my mind,

not only for the experience
of myself,

but for you guys, too.

- Yeah, that's good.
- What about you?

What about your family?
Especially you,

because I know
you guys are coming together.

Oh, man, my family's
super religious.

Everyone got married,
like, super young.

I'm the oldest grandchild.
- Okay.

And the majority of my cousins
have been married

and have, like, two, three kids.

- And you're the only one.
I'm sure, like,

"What's wrong with you?
What are you waiting for?"

- They do. They do.
They're just like,

"What's wrong with her?"
- I don't feel like everyone

should have to be
on the same clock.

Honestly, one of mine
and Evan's biggest issues

is the fact that I wanna...
Wanna get engaged

and get married,
and he's just not ready.

I feel like he might be
feeling that pressure,

and the more that
you pressure someone...

Yeah, it's pushing him away.

- Yeah, the more back...
And that's just human nature.

Maybe I need to have

a little bit more patience
with Evan,

and I kind of am a little bit
mad at myself

that I had to come here
to realize that.

I'm gonna be very honest.
I'm kinda pissed at myself.

This is a first for me.
This is a lot of firsts.

- So let's cheers to firsts.
- Yeah, I know. To firsts.

There you go.

You look like a gangster.

I'm on my first date with Evan,

and I am, like, not into it
right now

because there was a nice scene
created last night,

and when there's drama involved,
I want nothing to do with it.

Ahh.

- This is beautiful.
- Right.

I gotta, you know, I'd like
to talk to you about last night

just for a little bit.
- Okay.

I think that Kathryn was

trying to be, you know,
respectful,

and I felt so bad that,
you know,

you were getting brought
into it.

The drama right now
is so unnecessary

and inappropriate.
- It's like three weeks in.

It's... yeah.
- And it's just weird.

Yeah, I hear...
- So I do have

a little sour taste in my mouth,

but I just need to chill
for the next couple days.

Yeah. I just... I wish
it never happened.

I feel the most comfortable
with you, okay?

And, uh, I know I had
the last pick,

but you aren't anybody's
last pick,

that's just crazy, so...
- Thank you.

- Are you still glad you came?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- I feel like we're both

on the same page, so...

Brittney said she needed
some space,

and I totally hear her
100% on that.

Everybody's just barely
getting to know each other,

and I hope Brittney's
not upset or anything,

but the other ladies are vying
for that attention,

and so I'm all in 100%.

You wanna go check out
some coastline, or you know?

So there's, like,
a lot of guys to choose

for my first date, right?
But I just, like, wanted

to experience my first date
with somebody

that I feel, like, really open

and comfortable talking to,
so...

Going into this date,
I kind of, like,

have my guard up a little bit.

I've been in a relationship
for so long

that conversating with men
was just kind of off-limits.

Yeah. Go ahead.

My relationship with Karl is,
like, my first in-depth love.

- Yeah.
- And I think, me...

I wanna know kinda like if
that's what it's supposed to be

for the rest of my life.
- Right.

That was just, like, a big
eye-opening moment to me.

I almost feel like if we had
more time,

we could have had more stuff
to talk about.

If we go on another date,

like, we could take it
another step farther.

Yeah.

Yeah, I agree.

Were you offended at all
by what Nicole said?

I, you know, completely
understandable for her

to be a little bit sour.

You guys do have, like,
similar qualities.

You don't look exactly alike,
but, like,

having tanned skin,
beautiful face.

You both have beautiful eyes.

Sheldyn does have a nice body,
but my girl...

She got muscles.
She got ass.

Like, that's hard to compete
with.

I wake up to that every day,
so, shit.

- Do you miss her?
- I do. It's starting to hit.

Not being able to see her
and be intimate with her.

Right.

I have needs, and...

Um...

Karl, what are you saying?

For real, like, what are you...
What are you doing?

What are you thinking?
You ruined it.

So you're done.

Definitely one to remember.

You're so sweet.

Oh!

I chose to go on the date
with Johnny today.

The only thing that I know
about Johnny is

he's a chiropractor
and he has kind of like

a sarcastic personality,
which I do, too.

- Do you burn?
- Not like John does.

He has super fair skin.
- My mom's Sicilian, so I got...

She's like, dark, like,
brown hair, brown eyes.

Like, Italian.
- Mm-hmm.

Strong Italian woman,
very opinionated. Very...

My dad actually, like, has
exactly your look.

Like, he's your build,
your color.

Literally, like, your hair,
to a freaking "T."

I'm finding out, actually,
that Johnny

is a lot like me.

For me, with work, like,
I can't take, like,

the 2, 3-week break.
This is the first time,

I think in my life, I've been
away from my studies

and my work, whatever,
for at least a week.

Johnny is driven,
passionate about life,

and John isn't necessarily
like that.

Seeing Johnny today make me

realize that, you know,
these questions that I'm having

are valid, and it's not
irrational.

Honestly, I said last night,
I felt like

we would have a good time.

Obviously, I do still like
to have fun. We're here.

Yeah, I know.

I was gonna say so, yeah,
you know,

Kady kind of blocked Kathryn.

She was actually
my first choice.

You were my second.
- Huh.

- What were you gonna say?
- No.

Okay.

Dating is hard.

Definitely felt awkward
and just, like,

what am I talking about
right now?

But trust me, if Kady and I
don't get through this,

I'll have to come see Portland.

I love being second choice.

Ladies love that.
Yeah.

You know...

Yeah! There you go!

- Oh, you didn't... You haven't...
- No.

There's just a lot of
awkward silence between us.

I can't help but to keep
thinking about Javen.

I miss him so much.

Everything that I do,
I have this sense of guilt.

Wait, is this okay?
Should I be doing this?

Because I wish that I was
doing it with him,

and is he doing the same thing,

or is he kind of
stepping it up a notch?

I don't know, and that's kind of
killing me inside.

- I've been drinking.
Not gonna lie. I can drink.

Nothing wrong with that.

I've been having fun, though.

Like, I wanted to go
a lot faster but I couldn't.

It's okay. Precious cargo
right here.

- It was fun, though.
I liked it.

No, you were great.

Coming from my past,
having too much fun,

drinking too much,
and cheating on my girlfriend,

to be smiling from ear to ear

just doesn't feel that good
to me,

but it does, and so I think

I might be having too good
of a time,

and so this is definitely scary.

No. Yeah!

I made the right decision.

I'm glad to hear that.

Oh, man. I just can't believe
what we got ourselves into.

I'm wondering what
my girlfriend's doing,

like if she's really connecting
with somebody that might

make me feel like, all right,
well, you know, it's...

- It's fair game.
- Fair game.

Yeah, kinda feel like
it's fair game.

Mark told us that we were
gonna have a bonfire.

I really have no clue
what to expect,

and I feel so much anxiousness
going into it,

just not knowing what's gonna
happen on the island.

Walking into bonfire,
I'm expecting the worst.

My relationship is on the line.
I knew that coming in.

Gentlemen, welcome.

But I hope that we can just
get out of this

and come out strong
like we talked about

at the beginning of this.

Well, here we are
at your first bonfire.

Bonfire's out here by itself
for a reason, you guys...

Get you away from the noise
and the distraction

of all that's going on
in your villas.

And this is where you come
to talk,

and you could get a glimpse

of what your girlfriend's
experience is like

on the island.
- Okay.

Javen, how you feeling?

Um, I miss my girlfriend,
honestly, but, uh,

I'm battling. I'm going through
some adversity over there.

It's... It's a different
environment.

It's definitely different,
you know?

A lot of things I'm doing,
I feel wrong.

You know, spending time
with other women is like,

it's... it's weird,
but I'm opening up a little bit.

- Well, it's a process.
- Yeah.

I have clips of your girlfriends

from their experience
on the island, okay?

Now, guys, it's easy to assume
the worst,

but you gotta remember,
you don't know what happens

before or after
what you're seeing.

I'm gonna play these clips,

and you can make the choice
for yourself

if you wanna share it
with the guys

or watch it with earbuds
by yourself.

You ready to do this?
- Ready.

- I'm ready.
- Evan, we'll start with you.

- Okay.
- Okay?

So I have this tablet,
and you tell me,

do you wanna watch it
by yourself,

or you wanna share it?
- I'm gonna have to share that.

- Okay. Here we go.
- You all got me?

- Oh, gotcha.
- Got you, bro.

Got you.

Bye, you guys. We'll talk
about the trees later.

What's up?

You think that's cool
over there?

- Yeah, wherever. You lead me.
- All right. I'm-a lead you.

That's what a leader's
supposed to do.

- Yeah.
- Have you been in the pool yet?

No, I haven't. I can't wait.

- You know how to swim?
- I do.

- Okay.
- I do. I love to swim.

You're gonna have to save me
then.

I know, right?

Cheers to an adventure.
- Yeah, it is.

- What'd you see, Evan?
What'd you feel?

I feel a little bit uneasy,
to be honest.

Um, but, uh, this is what
we chose to do, you know?

Kaci and I came into this,
you know, 100%,

you know, ready to commit
to this process,

and hopefully, I wouldn't be
completely distraught

watching a little bit more
of that.

Uh, Karl, you ready?

- Ready, let's do it.
- By yourself or with the team?

- Team for sure.
- All right.

- Supporters, need it.
- Got you.

- All right, team, here we go.
- Go.

You are in love with Karl,

and, you know, that's your man,
whatever, but at the same time,

there's still a lot that
you wanna experience,

and I feel like he's holding you
back with experiencing

some of those things.
- Yeah, my relationship

with Karl is like
my first in-depth love,

and I think for me, I just...
I wanna know kinda, like,

if that's what it's supposed
to be for the rest of my life.

If you're questioning
your relationship,

and you're here,
that should be the answer

that your relationship
isn't 100%.

Yeah, I agree.

What'd you think?

I'm... honestly, like,
relieved.

I thought I'd see
something else.

So I feel solid.

- And so you are her first love.
- Yeah.

And so I heard a little bit
of the clip of her questioning

how do you know if that's
the love?

- Right.
- Does that bother you at all?

- It doesn't bother me.
She asked... She... She asked me,

"What is love?"
I explained what love is,

and she told me that she does
feel that way.

She's never felt this way
with a man period,

and I feel confident.
Like, that feels...

That feels great to hear.
I can run with that.

- All right. Javen, you're next.
Team or by yourself?

- Team.
- Okay.

All right, here we go.

You excited for our date
tomorrow?

I'm excited to get out
of the house.

As ecstatic as I was
that you chose me.

I mean, you've been
very reserved, so...

- Yeah, I know.
- Do you feel, though, like,

you're gonna be judged for that

'cause you're technically
in a relationship?

For sure, yeah.

What'd you see?

I feel my girlfriend was
trying to open up

and, you know, conversate.

I know it was kinda hard
for her,

but I want her to open up,
you know,

we're here for the experience,
and I want her to have fun.

So that was actually a pretty
good clip for you to watch.

Yeah, it was pretty good.

I gotta ask you guys,
you're aware that

they're gonna get to see clips
of y'all, too.

- Yeah.
- Mm.

- I'm definitely aware of that.
- Any regrets with that?

I don't know,
but I know that I probably

got a little friendly
last night.

It may bother her 'cause
of my past,

but hopefully she can
see through it,

she'll try to be mature,
and, you know, just

have fun, enjoy the experience.

All right, let's watch
another video.

Johnny boy.
- Whoo!

I hope you're not saving
the best for last here.

- Are you ready?
- I'm ready.

- Team?
- Team.

- I had a feeling.
- I might need an inhaler.

He's just not as manly,
I suppose,

and I hate to use
the word "manly."

but I'm always, like, wanting
to do outdoors things,

active things. Like, if we were
to have children,

he wouldn't be able to teach
our sons

how to do that kind of stuff.

Yeah! Yes.
- I can't wait to have a son.

Hmm.

What do you think?

Uh... yeah, I mean,
of course that bothers me.

Um, that's something she said
to me in the past.

She wants to be more like
an alpha male,

and I've told her from day one,
that's just not who I am,

and as far as her saying, like,
she's worried about me

being a father, I mean, I think
that I'd be a great father, so...

- You would, bro.
- That's obviously something

that bothers me that
she would say that.

I think that this separation
and this experience

is gonna make her realize

that she's been taking me
for granted for sure.

I think we've had enough
for tonight.

Uh, you guys can head back
to your villa.

I'll see you soon, right?
- Thank you, man.

You can head back.

Ahh.

Kady said that I wouldn't be
a good father,

and I'm kinda wondering why
the hell is she with me

if she thinks that? You know,
it definitely hurts my heart.

Um, it's something that's
really making me look

at the issues that we have
in our relationship

and really figure out if this
is, in fact, the woman for me.

All right, so what do you guys
think's gonna happen tonight?

I think the guys
are gonna be there.

I think the guys might be there.

I hope the guys
are gonna be there.

Mark mentioned we are
doing a bonfire tonight.

I really don't know what
to expect.

I don't know what I'm gonna see.
I'm feeling very, very anxious.

The bonfire definitely makes
me feel anxious.

Mark said maybe sometime
along this journey,

that you see something
that you don't like,

and it's... it's really hard
to prepare for that.

- Hi, you guys.
- Hi!

- Welcome.
- Welcome.

- How are you doing?
- Great. I'm doing great.

I'm glad to see you.

Welcome to bonfire.
This is your first bonfire.

We'll see each other here
from time to time.

Let me just let you know
what this is about.

This is where you come to talk
about what's going on with you,

share your experiences,
and to catch a glimpse

of what your boyfriends
are doing on the island.

It's also where

you can get answers.

I have video for all four
of you of your boyfriends,

in some experience
they're having,

either on their dates
or at their villa.

- You're excited.
- We're all excited

about that, yeah.
- Are you excited about that?

- Yeah.
- You kinda anticipated

that might be the thing?

I have mixed feelings
about it. I'll own it.

Like, I wanna see.
Like, I'm curious,

but I also, like,
ignorance is bliss.

- I get it. Shari?
- Yeah.

- You're first.
You can watch this

with the support of the girls,

or you can watch it
with earbuds. It's your choice.

I definitely wanna share
with the girls.

- Okay. Great.
- Yeah.

There's something about you
that, like, I literally,

I can't shake.
- Thank you.

Javen, Javen, Javen, Javen,
Javen, what am I to do?

I am really attracted to you.

And I don't know what to do
with my hands.

Please do not touch me.

Oh, I can't hold hands, though.

, I... ed up.

It just happened,
and I've been drinking.

I don't even wanna watch.

All right, nice talking to you.

What'd I just do?

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

- Wh... Wh...
- That really hurt.

I truly am not sure
what he confessed to.

Remember, you don't know
what happens before

or after what you're seeing,
so...

The fact that, like, he would
just cross the line

in that way is just
really hurtful.

We're done.
I feel empty right now.

I'm done. I'm honestly done.

If he participated in something,
I'm done.
