00:00What happened last night? Well, it was a shitshow.
00:18Last night, I suggested to Melinda that we go for a walk around the neighbourhood.
00:25Anyway, she said that she'd prefer to go to bed.
00:30So I thought I'd leave her to that and give her some space.
00:33And so I went for a walk.
00:38So when I got back, I thought I would just knock on her door and say goodnight.
00:43And I heard her in her bedroom with a male member of production.
00:49I went into the room and I saw this gentleman sat on her bed talking with her.
00:56It just, to me, it didn't look right.
00:58It didn't feel good to see a man sitting on her bed.
01:00The door closed and I asked him to leave.
01:03And it got pretty heated and that's regrettable.
01:08Um, yeah.
01:11Things just escalated.
01:12He completely overreacted.
01:17There was too much tension.
01:19So I ended up moving out.
01:26Previously on Love Triangle.
01:29Hey.
01:30How are you?
01:31Five singles stepped into the unknown.
01:34Hi, pretty lady.
01:36Moving in with a complete stranger based on text messaging alone.
01:42Comes with a cape too.
01:43Of course he does.
01:44It's giving little brother vibes.
01:46Having chosen between two suitors, some are over the moon.
01:52So hot.
01:53Fuck.
01:54But others are feeling pangs of regret.
01:59More, like, cringing a bit.
02:01Do you know what I mean?
02:02Like, I've had more moments where I'm just like...
02:04Gonna get me ick a little bit.
02:07Coming up next, the first couple's party.
02:11Hello, mate.
02:12There you go, man.
02:13Jordan.
02:14And for one couple, the truth finally comes out.
02:20You know that I'm not attracted to that.
02:23I wasn't given my time.
02:25I asked for small, tan, ethnic.
02:35After spending the night in a nearby hotel,
02:38Melinda has returned to Mike's place to clear the air.
02:46Just come in, I guess.
02:48Morning.
02:49Morning.
02:50I just wanted to talk to you about last night
02:52and how you're feeling about everything
02:55and if we needed to clarify things.
02:59Okay.
03:00So, how are you feeling about it?
03:02Oh, uh...
03:06I don't know.
03:07I suppose I've kind of...
03:09I'm over it now, but...
03:11I suppose I, you know, reacted the way I did
03:15because I felt like that guy had overstepped a boundary.
03:20When you walked in, what did you see?
03:23I saw him talking to you.
03:25Yeah.
03:26So, I'm speaking to a crew member.
03:29What fucking boundary are they overstepping?
03:32Well, you...
03:34Do you think that when you have a partner
03:36they're not allowed to speak to the opposite sex?
03:38No, I don't.
03:40They're not allowed to?
03:41Oh, no, I don't have a problem with it, no.
03:43Being in your room, on the bed, with the door closed,
03:47to me, it just...
03:48It irritated me.
03:50He could have knocked on your door, said,
03:51is everything okay here?
03:52Okay, great, I'll be downstairs.
03:53What makes you think that he didn't do that, though?
03:55Well, he didn't because he was on your bed
03:57behind a closed door.
03:58That's exactly what he did.
03:59He knocked on the door to see if I was okay,
04:01and I asked him to come in.
04:02His job is to speak with us and check on our welfare.
04:05That's actually his job description.
04:06I don't know that sitting on your bed...
04:09What do you want him to do, sit on the floor?
04:13I feel that perhaps you overreacted
04:15without understanding the situation first.
04:18If you had just asked me,
04:20I would have explained what had happened,
04:22but you just overreacted in anger.
04:25If you recall, I didn't raise my voice, by the way.
04:29Not once did I raise my voice.
04:31You did, however, come down and raise your voice
04:34and yell at me.
04:35Do you remember that part?
04:36100%, and I'm sorry for losing my cool.
04:38I'm 100%, and I'll own that, and I do apologise.
04:41I went full Karen mode.
04:42You're painting, you're getting prepared
04:44to paint a narrative of me.
04:46But so you know, I wasn't concerned about you at all.
04:50I didn't make an accusation toward you or your honour,
04:54or what your intentions were with that guy.
04:57All I saw was a guy in your bedroom
05:00who should not have been there from where I was standing.
05:03So, okay, I'm speaking with a male
05:06who's doing his job, and you don't like it,
05:09and then what did you do?
05:13Well, I told him to leave.
05:15Yeah?
05:16He confronted me about it.
05:17I told him to leave again, and he did.
05:19Then you left.
05:20He won't be working here again.
05:23He's not going to be in our house again.
05:25Yeah.
05:26Make no mistake.
05:27He didn't get the hint that he's to be seen and not heard.
05:32I'm trying to...
05:33How do you think anybody's to be seen and not heard?
05:35I think that's a really unfair thing to say.
05:37I'm happy to be civil with you beyond this,
05:43but I won't raise my voice to you and I won't swear to you,
05:46and I ask that you don't do that to me,
05:48then let's give each other some respect.
05:49Yeah.
05:50Okay, that's fine.
05:51Are you going to apologise for yelling at me,
05:52or are we going to just not mention that you also yelled at me?
05:55I didn't yell at you.
05:56You did yell at me.
05:57I didn't.
05:58I did not raise my voice to you.
06:00Okay.
06:01Absolutely not.
06:02The people that are going to be watching this,
06:04they don't all like me, but do you know what?
06:06They trust me because I never tell bullshit.
06:08So, I really hate to say this,
06:10but you're nowhere near as relevant as you think you are.
06:13You are a 50-year-old washed-up reality TV star.
06:17Okay.
06:18Okay.
06:19Okay.
06:20Um, okay, well, hey, great chat,
06:23and I'm going to leave you with it.
06:25Yep.
06:26Yeah?
06:27Sure.
06:28Okay, well.
06:29Want a cup and tea?
06:31I'm all good, thank you.
06:32Okay.
06:35Mike has a very self-focused personality,
06:39and he's incredibly entitled.
06:42I, honestly, I'd rather shit in my hands and clap
06:46than get to know him any further.
06:54While one relationship is in freefall,
06:58others, like Ari and Nuri,
07:01are climbing to new heights.
07:03Wakey, wakey.
07:05Eggs and bakey.
07:07I thought you'd bring a little coffee in bed.
07:11Oh.
07:12It tastes like what?
07:14I use normal milk.
07:16You're not going to shit the bed, are you?
07:19Chloe has been working on fanning the flames of passion
07:23with her match, Bec.
07:25This is not wanting to ignite.
07:30Oh, here we go.
07:32Um...
07:33Last night, Chloe tried to heat things up in the chemistry department
07:40with an at-home date.
07:42Come sit.
07:43Aw.
07:44The effort that you've put in tonight is winning me over, that's for sure.
07:46Yeah.
07:47But she didn't get the outcome she was hoping for.
07:50So last night, Bec and I ended up in our separate bedrooms.
07:53I'm super happy to take this slowly.
07:57But in my mind, ideally, I would have loved to have a bit of hand-holding
08:03or maybe to have shared a kiss by now.
08:06Good.
08:07I like it.
08:08Mmm.
08:09I am still very hopeful that Bec does start to show the passion towards me.
08:16Hmm.
08:17If this has any hope of going anywhere.
08:32Living in the future.
08:34Jordan is starting to grow on me a little bit.
08:37He's a lot more entertaining to be around than I thought.
08:39No one's ever needed two knives for toast before.
08:42You have two bits of bread, two hands, go ahead.
08:45On moving in, Peyton was left a little confused by her match, Jordan.
08:53Oh, okay.
08:54We're putting it on.
08:56Comes with a cape too.
08:58Of course it does.
09:00It's giving little brother vibes.
09:01Like, it's not giving man of my dreams vibes.
09:05But after spending more time together, her opinion is changing.
09:11This is like our first cooking thing together.
09:13It's actually kind of romantic actually.
09:16Yesterday, I know I did make such snap judgment.
09:18But today, I feel like I'm getting like a bit more of a real side.
09:21I feel like he's moving away from the little brother vibe.
09:24Oh, you know I love my toast?
09:25What?
09:26What?
09:27Holes?
09:28Yeah, plenty of potholes.
09:29How have you lived alone for so long and not been able to cook?
09:32Well, after that escapade, I'm thinking maybe we go to the grocery shops, get some stuff and maybe I teach you how to cook.
09:41Oh, yes.
09:57We are so set.
09:58We are never being pale again.
10:00How is it?
10:02Yeah, it's not bad.
10:04Can't complain.
10:05Just a nice little like light bronze glow.
10:08But it's not as flirty as the first date.
10:11Do I want to play it safe though?
10:13No.
10:15Now that I look back, maybe I'm sending the vibes that I'm like not too keen.
10:21I rejected his kiss.
10:23And then the fact that I put him in the other room.
10:26From the first date, Ariana played by her own rules.
10:30I want to kiss you now.
10:33Yeah, don't.
10:37Maybe not first date.
10:39And has stuck to her guns on move-ins.
10:42This is my room.
10:44Making sure they sleep in separate beds.
10:46And then this is your room.
10:47This is like the guest room.
10:48The guest room.
10:49Yeah, the mini-man room.
10:51You can pretty much touch the walls.
10:54But now, what was once a blossoming relationship has come to a standstill.
11:00Hey, Joel.
11:01What are you doing?
11:03I wouldn't blame him.
11:04He feels a bit apprehensive.
11:06You know.
11:08I said to grab the milk and now you're naked.
11:10So, I'm trying to get the flirty vibes going again.
11:12So, I'm gonna give him a spray tan.
11:16Alright, which one do you want?
11:17You should tell me.
11:18I've never had a tan before.
11:19You've never had a tan before?
11:20No, I've never had a spray tan.
11:21Welcome, Joel.
11:22Taking your tanning virginity.
11:24Your tan-ginity.
11:26Get undressed.
11:29So, what are we going with?
11:31Told you to surprise me.
11:34All I know how to do is get naked, man.
11:36That's fucking right.
11:38Yeah, he's hot, so obviously I want to kiss him, Bob.
11:41I'm very old school.
11:42Like, I like the male making the first move.
11:44Locked and loaded, baby.
11:45But, might be the hardest thing I've ever done.
11:48Mmm.
12:00How lovely is this?
12:01It's stunning.
12:02Gorgeous.
12:03Keen to show Bernie her fun and flirty side?
12:07Marissa has taken him out for a drink.
12:10Is this the kind of place that you would go?
12:13Love the outdoor patio vibe.
12:17Bernie and Marissa's move-in got off to an awkward start
12:21after he mocked her American accent.
12:25American, so American.
12:26Why is it funny?
12:27I could imagine you with your accent saying,
12:29I think I'm speaking to my high school crush.
12:34Straight out of an high school musical scene.
12:36Ugh, he's gonna keep up with the American stereotypes this whole time.
12:39I don't think we've really talked about anything that deep.
12:42And yeah, just, I think I got concerned that,
12:46I think maybe we're not on the same level.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Attorney-wise.
12:51Yeah.
12:53I was pretty direct last night.
12:56Like, I think we've tackled the tough things,
12:58and it would be nice to just have a fun moment.
13:01Cheers.
13:02What are we cheersing to today?
13:03To having some fucking fun.
13:04To have fun.
13:05Let's do it.
13:06I'll see.
13:08I mean, it is calling for it.
13:09It's sunny.
13:11For Marissa, I kind of just need her to just let loose a little bit.
13:15Because of that conversation,
13:16I feel like I've been, like, emotionally catfished a little bit,
13:19because, like, in the messages, she was so, like,
13:22like, funny, cheeky, whatever, and then,
13:24but then again, I am giving her the benefit of the doubt.
13:27Yeah.
13:28You have a fun time.
13:29Wow.
13:30And I hope you feel comfortable, like, being cheeky and fun still.
13:33I feel like we, like...
13:35Yeah!
13:36I want you to feel comfortable.
13:37Like, I definitely want to be clear about that.
13:40I know you think it has to be, like, all serious.
13:42And I've been very, like, mellow and kind of chill.
13:45Yeah, yeah.
13:46But, yeah, we can have fun.
13:47Yeah.
13:48Like, you can have the banter and stuff.
13:50Yeah.
13:51I think it'll just take me a little bit now to just get back on...
13:54Yeah, that's fair enough.
13:55...back on the horse, as they say.
13:57I think psyching yourself out and getting upset
14:00over someone not being deep within the first,
14:02not even 24 hours of meeting each other...
14:06Like, that's a bit unfair on me.
14:09I am, like, youthful, and I am, like...
14:11I am a child at heart, like, in just the way I look at life.
14:14Like, I just don't think things need to be that serious.
14:16I'm so happy to, like, get back to that, like,
14:20flirty banter and fun and things silly.
14:24How do we say it back home?
14:25Rock on, brother.
14:26I don't know if you say that.
14:28We don't really say that back home,
14:29but just ignore that I did that.
14:31Don't even think about that.
14:32I didn't do that.
14:33Just delete that. Just go.
14:34In real life, I would've cut things off.
14:37I'd like to have a moment of introspection.
14:40Be like, doing it again.
14:43Maybe.
14:45You need to continue giving Melissa a shot
14:47and see where that goes.
14:49Because if I came here just to do what I do anyways
14:52in the real world, then what's the point, really?
14:53Yeah, I...
15:00All right.
15:01All right. What do we need?
15:02Mushrooms, garlic.
15:04Mm-hmm. Bacon.
15:05Mm-hmm.
15:06Payton is on a mission to teach her match Jordan how to cook.
15:10Oh, we also need onions.
15:11OK.
15:12So get a brown onion.
15:13Right.
15:14So let's get a brown onion.
15:15I didn't know those were different coloured onions, to be honest.
15:18What?
15:19No, that's not...
15:20That's not an onion.
15:21That's not onion.
15:22That's beetroot.
15:23Nope.
15:24OK.
15:25This way.
15:26Far out.
15:27Nope.
15:28Ooh.
15:29Back it up.
15:30Back it up.
15:31No.
15:32Put the...
15:33I saw that.
15:34This is like trying to control a toddler.
15:36Sense of humour is probably my best asset.
15:38Well, we need to look for mushrooms.
15:40Tell you what, there's no mushroom in this grocery store.
15:43Stop trying to steal my joke.
15:45I love to joke around.
15:47Payton, why'd you put this in there?
15:48You put that in there.
15:50I guess we'll just have to keep it then.
15:52Yeah.
15:53I think she's definitely starting to get my sense of humour.
15:56I think the day one might have scared her a bit.
16:01But yeah, if I can make her laugh, that's sort of the goal.
16:04Welcome to Payton and Jordan's cooking show.
16:07Are you equipped to cut up an onion?
16:09Absolutely.
16:10OK.
16:11Do you know how to cut up an onion?
16:12Ooh.
16:13Am I going to cry?
16:14Maybe.
16:15Good.
16:16I've...
16:17I wanted to feel something.
16:21They kind of look like little faces on there, don't they?
16:24Sure.
16:25Do you feel an attraction growing?
16:27I definitely think that we are on the right path.
16:31Definitely out of like a weird friend zone.
16:35Um, have cream in your moustache.
16:38Oh.
16:43But definitely not like in a get naked zone just yet.
16:48So you and I just, this all goes well.
16:50We get married.
16:51Yeah.
16:52We live the, we live the, uh, the whole fantasy.
16:55Would you be cooking every night?
16:57Would you like to, uh, split it?
17:00Like, how would you like to do it?
17:01Share the load.
17:02Or like, I do two nights, you do a night.
17:03You do five nights, I do one night.
17:05Mmm.
17:08On the other hand, he's not really being, you know, touchy or anything.
17:13If that ends up on the, you almost elbowed me and almost ended up with that on the floor.
17:21We haven't even held hands.
17:25I don't know whether he's into me like that.
17:29Only time will tell.
17:30Oh.
17:35Ooh.
17:37I wonder who that could be.
17:38Got a text.
17:44Open it.
17:45I'm nervous.
17:46I'm nervous.
17:48Oh my God.
17:51So.
17:52I don't even want to hear it, man.
17:53You have to move out tonight.
17:54Oh, fuck.
17:58There's no fucking place.
17:59I'm kidding.
18:00Oh, fuck.
18:01We're invited to a dinner party.
18:02Really?
18:03Yeah.
18:04You and your match are invited to a party tomorrow.
18:08Tomorrow?
18:10This will be your first big social outing as a couple.
18:13And a chance to catch up with the other couples going through the same crazy dating experience as you.
18:17I'm so excited.
18:19Oh my God, we actually get to meet everyone else.
18:21After three days of living together, it's time to compare notes at the first couples party.
18:34Wow.
18:36Wow.
18:37Looking good, man.
18:39Scrub up all right, too.
18:41We're really excited to go into this couples party and just, like, have fun.
18:46And telepathically, I'm sending signals.
18:49Kiss me.
18:50Ooh.
18:51Hey, ow.
18:52You look amazing.
18:53Thanks.
18:54How do you?
18:55Are you kidding me?
18:56Oh my God.
18:57Ooh.
18:58Ooh.
18:59Chloe's a very attractive girl.
19:00Still definitely a slow burn, which is nice.
19:02I don't feel uncomfortable.
19:03How are you feeling for tonight?
19:04So excited.
19:05Mm-hmm.
19:06I just want to get there.
19:07Yeah.
19:08I'm really keen to meet all the other triangles and see how everyone else is.
19:13Oh, do you think we need a code word?
19:14If anything is going wrong, you can say to me your bone needs fixing or I can say my bone
19:18needs fixing.
19:19Are we ready?
19:20Um, I think so.
19:21Actually, check yourself in the mirror first.
19:22I'm kidding.
19:23I'll be like.
19:24You asshole.
19:25Looking good.
19:26Oh.
19:27I reckon we'll scrub up all right.
19:28Yeah, we do.
19:29Mm.
19:30Mm.
19:31Mm.
19:32Mm.
19:33Mm.
19:34Mm.

27:15bernie's great honestly like we had a really great first date like i feel like our texting was like spicy like float
27:21yeah
27:22it was like really fun um i feel like we had similar energies and definitely bled into the first day we kissed on the first day
27:29okay
27:30how was that
27:31it was good it was a really good kiss and okay great and then moving in it was good we had like a couple hiccups like just in terms of some boundaries i had in place yeah so we spoke about that and i felt like we had some deep chats holding hands you know we kissed whatever and then the next few days it's just been more like friend vibes
27:38so i don't know i don't know i don't know like the door's not closed but i feel
27:55are you kind of confused
27:56i'm very confused
27:57yeah
27:58and do you see something long term with him if he was to pull his finger out or not really
28:02i think there's more to discover but like you know
28:06how are you doing what's happening
28:08yeah
28:09yeah
28:10yeah take it real slow
28:11well at least you've given it you know everything
28:14yeah i'm still trying yeah yeah yeah i'm trying to be fair
28:16i feel like sometimes when i have my own internal chats i'm quite harsh and i can be like oh no this will never work but then i'm trying to like i'm in the show for a reason
28:23i'm doing the same
28:24we're doing the same
28:25how are you guys going
28:27good really good
28:28like we got her fair so i just said a little bit of a kiss so that was nice
28:33oh was that your first date
28:34yeah was that your first
28:35well i got rejected on the first date man
28:37oh
28:38why would you try and slap it on the first date
28:40yeah that's ballsy
28:41yeah but i'm feeling like because now you've done it like you're you've gone up a whole another level
28:46yeah i think i'm taking the next step so
28:48yeah
28:49that's good
28:50how's it all going for you
28:51yes
28:52i mean we get along so well
28:55we laugh we joke we it almost feels like okay yeah we feel like we have five years of a couple
28:59like we feel like
29:00yeah
29:01we bicker like we've been married for five years
29:03yeah we bicker
29:04oh my god
29:05we live in a house to communicate
29:06we do yeah we absolutely communicate
29:08we get along like a house on fire
29:09i can't complain
29:10like i love love
29:11oh i love that
29:12that's so cute
29:13that's so cute
29:14one more
29:15oh
29:16are you guys sharing the same bed
29:19nah
29:20we we we're just i think we're just completely in the friend zone
29:26does she know that she's in the friend zone
29:28yeah for sure i think we've had that conversation
29:30yeah but i still think that
29:32i think i don't know i could be completely wrong but i think she wants me to make a move
29:37even though you've discussed that you're in the friend zone
29:40yeah
29:41well i'm trying to get to the bottom of it so it's
29:44it's you that's not going to make the move like you're you're like you don't want to
29:47oh we're friends
29:48i don't really want to at the moment because we're friends but um like i see her as a friend
30:00and i know she's desperate to like hold hands and and all that
30:04so to me it sounds like she doesn't know that she's in the friend zone
30:07we've talked about it for sure
30:08so why is she trying to continue to push a bit of intimacy
30:12i think because she wants to get to the next level
30:14okay
30:15when i first met jordan i thought he seemed like a great guy
30:19but i think that as soon as he opened his mouth that changed
30:25he was saying that there had been a conversation about being just friends and they were in the
30:32friend zone but then in the next breath when i questioned him he said no but i'm open to it
30:37being something more and he couldn't really land on an outcome
30:42jordan is getting a drink
30:44i can tell you now he is not being honest with the words he is saying
30:50there's some blurred lines there
30:52he's just like saying one thing and then like crossing her
30:57yeah
30:58um i don't think he's into her
31:00no
31:01for sure
31:02but i don't think she knows that
31:03i don't think that's very fair
31:06yeah
31:08so how is everything going
31:11yes
31:12um
31:13it's been a shit show it's not been
31:17really
31:18yeah
31:19okay
31:20last night i was chatting with a male member of staff
31:24yes
31:25and um
31:26mike came in and didn't like that
31:28and proceeded to start yelling at the staff member
31:32he was just more like he's making me uncomfortable we shouldn't be speaking with you
31:38like i flipped my shit and went off because i thought he was going to try and paint this narrative of me talking to another guy and i'm like this promiscuous mother and i don't think it's okay
31:52no
31:53when that all that shit went down we started yelling and then today i confronted him and he's like i would never yell at a woman
31:59are you joking
32:01i wish i was
32:02that's disgusting
32:03yeah
32:04yuck
32:05okay
32:06and then this pissed me off as well because he said when he goes to the gym he'll deliberately leave a plate on the bar a 20 kilo plate and i hate when people do that at the gym because i can't lift that 20 kilo plate off and he's like if you can't lift it off you shouldn't be lifting weights
32:16and i said it's like leaving a trolley in the car park
32:29okay
32:30oh
32:31you're buzzing
32:32yeah
32:33i can't control what melinda's saying to people what she says is entirely her business
32:38100% entitlement
32:40massive
32:41but
32:42if people get wind that it's not all a bed of roses between us then it's all going to come out and people are going to take sides it's going to be a big mess and i don't want to do it to her i really don't
32:56mike do you want to come join
32:58yeah
32:59mike
33:00how are you team
33:01how are we
33:02oh
33:03good better than before i sat on the arm of that chair
33:06that's what i said mike how's it going
33:09i'll be completely honest with you
33:11initially
33:12look she's a pretty girl
33:13she's an attractive girl
33:14yeah
33:15um
33:16my texting phase was okay you know she was quite charming and a little bit flirty which was nice
33:20um
33:21no you know we um
33:23well that's it
33:25yeah how about you guys what's happening
33:27wait so

33:32she was i thought she was really nice yeah yeah
33:35and uh and now it's um
33:37we're not we're not really even on speaking terms
33:39oh
33:40that must be yeah
33:41yeah so that's where we're at now
33:46why is that like what happened
33:48oh fucking hell
33:49you tried to say that i was here for the wrong reason
33:51oh
33:53i actually wasn't going to talk about this tonight
33:55yeah if you don't want to talk about it that's fine
33:56yeah it's all right
33:58yeah
33:59i wanted to be so nice
34:01i really did
34:02i wanted to come into this i didn't want to get involved in that
34:05and suddenly i'm in the middle of it
34:08she was chatting with a guy um from production in her room
34:15wait as in during filming
34:18no no after i was quite late
34:20like on text
34:21no
34:22wait he was there
34:23yeah he was on the bed
34:24why
34:25good question
34:26bernie when i spoke to him
34:28fuck that
34:29yeah yeah okay
34:30like i'm like friendly
34:31maybe you're right
34:32like i'm friendly with the crew
34:34yeah i don't want him
34:35i don't want him on the bed
34:36yeah
34:37with the door closed
34:38that's fair enough
34:39and one of the red dress lady when i spoke to her
34:41what
34:43fuck
34:44that makes it so much worse
34:46does it
34:47does it yeah okay
34:48yes it does
34:49it is pretty bad
34:50and jordan when i spoke to him
34:51oh she she got cranky
34:53she got really angry
34:54did you say
34:55about you accusing her
34:56were all oh my gosh really you saw this guy in the room
34:59and and you asked him to leave and she got angry
35:01with that
35:02as soon as someone's in the bed and it gets a bit weird like i think you're in your place
35:06yeah ma'am
35:07i think it's completely weird and out of order
35:10i'm thinking well hang on
35:12i'm actually vindicated here
35:14they see it from my side
35:16and that's that's a real comfort
35:18i started to think maybe i've
35:20played this wrongly
35:21and then you guys would i guess reiterated how i've been feeling and could understand my perspective
35:27yeah
35:28yeah for sure
35:29yeah so i'm back in the game i'm good to go
35:32yeah
35:36i'm gonna come join the boys
35:38yeah come on see
35:39how's bernie how's bernie treating you
35:41he's great honestly i think he and i have a lot in common
35:46um so yeah i've been good vibes
35:52yeah i've been having a good time honestly
35:54bernie i kissed on the first day
35:55oh you did
35:56but that's kind of as far as it's gone
35:58why what happened since then
36:00i don't know
36:01i think part of me is like is he does he find me attractive like
36:05he is
36:06he is
36:07he is
36:08yeah
36:09thank you
36:10like objectively you are an attractive woman
36:13so what what would be the problem
36:15i just don't get it
36:17yeah i don't get it either
36:18it's it's baffling
36:19aww you guys are making me feel a lot better
36:21jordan and mike they actually told me like you know we acknowledge that you're very attractive
36:26like i can't see why bernie wouldn't want to pursue something with you like
36:30it just made me feel more at ease
36:33i bet 100 people never think you're a mum right
36:37oh nobody ever does
36:39um i think it's just my age
36:41and nobody ever thinks i'm 30 either
36:44is that your partner over there
36:46yeah
36:50has he acknowledged that you're here
36:52oh he's busy
36:54he's making friends
36:56i hope she likes to cook
36:58because he doesn't
36:59i think marissa's a lovely girl
37:01when i first got to know i was like oh quiet friendly lovely um and then when she started seeing close next to jordan i was like moving on in
37:12i'm sure they're talking about you or like something nice
37:16surely
37:18what's the tan thing from there like
37:20oh so okay yeah yeah so i'm half white half like i don't want to say mexican because my dad was not like from mexico but like my background is mexican
37:29really
37:30really
37:31yeah so half white half latina
37:32whoa
37:33so i'm stoked
37:35is anyone in the group more your type
37:37uh
37:38um
37:39yeah uh
37:40more
37:41more my type than payton
37:42i guess like conventionally marissa would probably be more my type
37:45small tan ethnic
37:47do you have a night time routine
37:49of course i do
37:50i knew there was something wrong with you
37:51no you just have to get on it

37:57there it is
37:58he's a um he's actually a napkin
38:00slap the shit off his chin
38:02i think that's really telling
38:05the fact that i don't think at one point tonight jordan checked in with me
38:09whatsoever
38:10it's really awkward hey
38:12i'm not like i'm not even like looking like
38:15babe
38:18it's not how i would like to spend the first party
38:21i have a certain
38:26yeah
38:27um
38:28some expectations like
38:29things like respect

42:36you know looking back on it
42:37i feel like
42:38i did it mostly right
42:41anyway
42:42while i take some responsibility for potentially overreacting
42:47um
42:48i never yelled at you
42:49and you did accuse me of that
42:51that's your truth
42:52yeah that's just the end of it
42:54melinda
42:55on your side
42:56yeah
42:57yeah
42:59i apologize for yelling it wasn't
43:01it wasn't the right thing to say
43:03it wasn't the right thing to do
43:04like i did flip my shit because
43:06i'm a mum
43:07not that that makes it okay
43:08but i thought he was going to paint a narrative of
43:10obviously me being in a room with another man
43:13which wasn't the case
43:14and respected mike
43:15he didn't try and paint that picture at all
43:16so i will
43:17yeah
43:18place respect where respect is due
43:24moving on from that
43:25she called me a 50 year old washed up reality
43:27what that that's just so uncool
43:30when i was talking to mike he said that he has a lot of fans and i said i'm sorry to stop you there
43:38you're a 50 year old washed up reality tv star you don't have fans
43:42i shouldn't have said that but i said it
43:45yeah
43:46that's it
43:47and yes i do have fans
43:49that's a fact i don't know i don't recall saying that i have fans but i certainly do
43:53i recognized him as soon as he came into the room and i said to him how do i know you and he swiped me off to the side and i was trying to figure out have i got a personal connection to this bloke or who is he and as soon as he said he had fans i realized he was from maps
44:18sorry i also want to say mike said that the staff's job is to be seen and not heard
44:22wait
44:25what
44:26wait you said that he should be seen and not heard
44:31i'm sorry but that's i'm gonna be honest that's really rude to say to anyone
44:35you can all scoff at it all you want okay that's fine but this is my opinion on it
44:39you ask my opinion i can tell you what it is
44:41to tell someone or to say about another person
44:43that they should be seen or not heard no matter what their role is as a staff member
44:47are you just determined to just decide against me because i feel like you are not listening to this one
44:51no you know what's turned me is the fact that you said that you should be seen and not heard
44:58you know what you know what let's just like let's just move on like obviously there's some stuff that you guys need to work out and hopefully you guys can come out of this civil
45:05i think this will be a positive from not talking about it

46:56at the moment we're friends i'm open to see what happens i don't i'm not saying the door is not open at all i wouldn't say that
47:05there's half of me that wants to believe him because we have built a friendship but then there's another half of me that's also like he has been hiding something that he hasn't been telling me something that he's been you know withholding some form of the truth i just don't know what to believe
