00:00Previously, three singles looking to escape the superficial world of modern dating.
00:18I hate dating apps.
00:20Entered the radical love triangle experience.
00:24Dating since maths, it's been difficult.
00:26With no idea what their two suitors looked like, they texted for three days before facing a life-altering choice.
00:37I'm in this for the potential of something really special.
00:42And once their minds were made up, everything rested on the crucial first dates.
00:49Am I what you expected?
00:51I'm not a man.
00:53Some found a spark.
00:55You've got some sass.
00:56I think we're going to get along just great.
00:58Others got burnt.
00:59Do you like feminine girls?
01:01I normally go for quite masculine.
01:04Oh, she's not attracted to me.
01:07Now, two more singles enter the experience.
01:11Modern dating sucks.
01:13We are in the absolute trenches.
01:16I think I'm a bit of a handful, but I'm absolutely ready to meet the one.
01:20And it's time to take it to the next level.
01:24Hello, hello.
01:26As each single and their chosen match move in together.
01:31I did Google you last night.
01:33Oh, did you?
01:34I did see the infamous, um, I'm not your therapist.
01:44All right, the time has come to hand over this bad boy.
01:49It's the beginning of the love triangle experience for our final two singles.
01:58We are here to start texting my boys.
02:02Can I call them that?
02:04Thing one and thing two?
02:05No.
02:06Arianna and Peyton.
02:11Are you out here looking like that?
02:12I'm sweating.
02:13I'm going to be sweating.
02:15Okay, so this is the app.
02:16They've both been matched with two potential partners.
02:20They've been told nothing about them and need to try and find a connection just by texting.
02:26I'm just hoping that they're, like, not weird.
02:28But also, like, how normal can you be going into this?
02:31They now have three days to decide who to meet on a blind date.
02:38They'll then live together for the next few weeks to see if there's a genuine connection.
02:50And if you just lift that up and do, like, in a movie.
02:54Oh, my God.
02:55Yay.
02:55Okay.
02:56Arianna, master interview.
03:01That was really fun.
03:03Can I do that again?
03:06I'm Arianna.
03:07I'm 29 and I'm from Melbourne.
03:09People describe me as very loud.
03:12You can hear me before you can see me.
03:15My background is half Serbian, half Greek.
03:18It's a bit of a fiery mix.
03:19I definitely get in trouble for speaking my mind.
03:21But, I mean, at the end of the day, I can walk away from every single conversation and be, like, I told the truth.
03:28So, now what?
03:29What are you going to do about it?
03:30Nothing.
03:31Sorry.
03:33I'm not even sorry.
03:34Scratch the sorry.
03:35What are you going to do about it?
03:36But there is two sides to me.
03:42I am also blindly loyal.
03:44Like, I have a big heart.
03:47Hey, little baby.
03:48I will not love half-arsed.
03:51I am all in.
03:53So, I mean, that's probably why a lot of things haven't worked, because I'm just, like, full steam ahead.
03:58I'm looking for the future father of my children.
04:00Good boy.
04:01Drop.
04:02Drop.
04:02You're a good boy.
04:04Well done.
04:05Stay.
04:06I want to be a mum more than anything in the world.
04:08In an ideal world, I probably would have started having kids, like, three years ago.
04:15But, I mean, my relationship history is garbage.
04:20Modern dating sucks.
04:22We are in the absolute trenches.
04:26I've been ghosted.
04:28Cheated on.
04:29I've been on so many really terrible dates.
04:32The full Monty.
04:33I'm handing my resignation.
04:35I'm done.
04:36See ya.
04:37I want, like, the whole enchilada.
04:41I want the marriage, the kids, the whole happy ending, and the laughing into the sunset with my elderly husband.
04:48I want it all.
04:50And I'm not going to stop until I get it, really.
04:57Alright.
04:59Ariana has been matched with 26-year-old Noori and 36-year-old Sam.
05:06Two very different suitors she'll get to know over text.
05:11Then, she has a massive choice to make.
05:15Because whoever she picks to go on a date with, whether it's a hit or a miss, they'll move in together to see if that spark can grow.
05:25I'm scared.
05:26Okay, now I'm scared.
05:27They've got names and they're actual people.
05:32Okay.
05:34Should I say, how are you?
05:35That's kind of polite, right?
05:37No.
05:38Okay, I'm just going to start with, like, do you eat meat?
05:44Because I genuinely don't think I can date a vegan.
05:47I eat meat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
05:49Oh, they're going to think I'm a fucking idiot.
05:51But it's important.
05:58Okay.
05:59Alright, I sent it.
06:00Oh, my God.
06:02Okay, I've got to send the same text message.
06:05It's Noori.
06:06Is that how you pronounce it?
06:07Noori.
06:08Okay, I've sent them both a text message and I am going to put that down and think about what I've done.
06:21I don't even know what these people look like.
06:23It's just like, hi, text these two numbers.
06:27Kind of scary.
06:29I like the hey, you.
06:37Hey, you.
06:38That's fun.
06:42Well, Noori likes meat.
06:44So, we are good.
06:46I want to know what Noori wants.
06:48What is he here for?
06:49I'm originally from New Zealand, but I now call Australia home.
07:06I'm a very high energy go-getter.
07:08Usually 100 miles an hour is my pace.
07:11Some people say, oh, I've got a split personality.
07:13I'm a facade.
07:14I'm an idiot.
07:14I like to laugh.
07:15I like to joke.
07:16But once you do get to know me, I'm a loving, caring, nurturing person.
07:22I'm loyal to my friends and I'll do anything for my family.
07:25I don't think there's anything more important in life.
07:28I think Noori's kind of sweet.
07:31Is it too early to ask if he wants children?
07:34Kidding.
07:35Kidding.
07:35I'm joking.
07:35I'm joking.
07:36I'm joking.
07:36I'm joking.
07:36I'm joking.
07:40Oh.
07:42Sam's alive.
07:46Good to know.
07:53Okay.
07:53Both eat meat.
07:55Seems like Noori can spell a bit better.
08:10I would describe myself as very driven.
08:13I'm definitely on a mission at the minute, trying to get my two fashion businesses up and
08:16running.
08:17Everything's starting to really take shape and, yeah, I'm happy where I'm at in life.
08:22But at 36, I'm definitely looking for love.
08:25So here we are, putting my best foot forward, trying to find the right person for me.
08:29I know that Noori is 26.
08:36And we've learned that Sam is older.
08:39So there's a 10-year age gap between the two of them.
08:43Oh, dating someone who's 26.
08:46I mean, what do we think?
08:49I don't know how that sits well with, you know, starting a family.
08:56You know, in the next couple of years, I want to be a mum.
08:59Sam is established.
09:08It's early days, but it's ticking a lot of boxes.
09:12It's early days.
09:12It's early days.
09:12It's early days.
09:12It's early days.
09:12It's early days.
09:13It's early days.
09:13It's early days.
09:14It's early days.
09:14It's early days.
09:15It's early days.
09:15It's early days.
09:16It's early days.
09:17It's early days.
09:18It's early days.
09:19It's early days.
09:20It's early days.
09:21It's early days.
09:22It's early days.
09:23It's early days.
09:24It's early days.
09:25It's early days.
09:26It's early days.
09:27It's early days.
09:28It's early days.
09:29It's early days.
09:30It's early days.
09:31It's early days.
09:32It's early days.
09:33It's early days.
09:34It's early days.
09:35It's early days.
09:36Hmm
09:42Sam's asked about the other person and I was like, are you curious and he said not curious at all, but let's have some fun with him
09:54I don't like that
09:56Oh
10:01So it does seem cheeky, but I think he's dancing a fine line of cheeky and
10:11Do she
10:23Mmm, not really vibing Sam
10:26Oh
10:29It's now time to meet our final single Peyton. That's a bit fancy
10:43I'm Peyton. I'm 25 from Coffs Harbour
10:48Um, I think I'm the fisherman's basket with extra salt and lemon not just a catch doll
10:56I bring a lot to the table. I'm fun vivacious energetic
11:03That's how good a bit everything going on
11:07I'm definitely a girly girl. I
11:09I love getting dressed up. I love going out, but I
11:14Also love getting down and dirty and work with the blokes being a tradie
11:18I'm a concreter you learn a lot working with the fellas on site, but honestly the shit that they say you would
11:27Need to walk through a church and do a baptism afterwards
11:30I
11:31Mean I think I'm a bit of a handful. I mean figuratively and emotionally
11:35I've never been a little I've always been a lot, but I think I'm the right amount of a lot for someone
11:44I'm doing this because I really really want to find love
11:48I've been seeing when I for about two years in Coffs Harbour
11:51It's not a huge dating pool the two previous relationships. I've had from dating apps have both been slightly sketchy
11:58I had one of them and I was like got to know him really well really liked him next minute. Oh
12:03Sorry, I went to Sydney fuck someone else. I have an STD and I was like I
12:08Just seemed to pick the wrong ones the treat a mean keep them keen type of guys have definitely had their appeal
12:15And I'm just a bit over that I
12:18Want a guy that's all in a hundred percent
12:21But to be completely honest
12:23I am pretty quick to judge on the apps
12:26I mean, so this is the thing that's going wrong for me all the ones I swipe on they're hot like they're really hot in my matching for personality
12:32Absolutely, not I'm actually because they look built. They're tall. They've got a dog
12:38I've most likely swiped past my soul mate over it's something completely ridiculous. I'm not proud of it
12:44I think I think I need to just take it out of my own hands
12:48Because apparently I'm not doing a very good job. So
12:54Okay, the things I'm gonna be looking out for is a bit of banter a bit of flirtiness
13:01Okay, red flags that I'm definitely looking out for if they jump into something sexual too quick
13:07If I get sent an eggplant, I'm done
13:08Payton has been matched with 31 year old Dante and
13:1329 year old Jordan
13:17I just like send one of them a message
13:19Okay
13:21If you're a day of the week
13:24What day would you be?
13:29All right, that's sent. Okay
13:31Oh
13:35We got a message from Dante
13:42Sheesh, Dante please
13:45It feels like a bit of a romantic
13:49I mean Dante asked me about me straight off the bat
13:54Which is just a bit cute
13:55I'm 31 and I'm a disability support worker from New South Wales
14:17I love helping people
14:18Being able to make a difference in others lives
14:21Gives my own life a sense of purpose
14:24I'm a pretty creative guy
14:26I'm pretty into photography
14:27I make rap music with one of my close friends
14:30And I love to write
14:32I would describe myself as
14:34a deep thinker
14:36Empathetic
14:37I'm a good listener
14:38But at the same time I'm also playful and flirty and funny
14:42I'm definitely looking for my partner to be a best friend
14:46I'm ready for love
14:48I'm ready for marriage
14:49I'm ready for kids
14:50I'm ready for it all
14:55That's cute
14:55A bit sensitive
14:56A bit cute
14:59Dante is zooming past Jordan
15:01Like
15:02Jordan hasn't even read it
15:05Oh Jordan's typing
15:06Oh
15:08I went into the chat
15:08I was typing
15:09It was a lot
15:10It was too much
15:14I'll have to go with a Thursday
15:16It's an underrated day in my opinion
15:19Mmm
15:29Whoa
15:32I'm Jordan
15:32I'm 29
15:33And I'm from Queensland
15:34I come from a sporting background
15:37I'm very competitive
15:38Whether it is football
15:40Ping pong with my grandma
15:44I've been working with kids now for 10 years
15:47I love my job
15:49The thing with kids is there's no ego
15:51They're 100% themselves
15:53And I just love being around people like that
16:00I just like someone who is down to earth
16:02Someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously
16:05I am absolutely looking for my forever woman
16:07That is why I'm here
16:10Life is just more fun with someone there
16:14Cute
16:15That's cute
16:21Jordan is doing the slow approach
16:25It just feels like I'm getting to know someone
16:27It's not super quick to respond
16:30So that's where he he falls apart
16:32I think old Jordan
16:34We've burnt daylight
16:35We're done
16:36I'm genuinely ready for bed
16:51I've been sent
16:52I've been sent an audio message
16:56Oh my god
16:59This is from Dante
17:00Okay
17:00Oh, okay
17:02Peyton
17:03My soon to be girlfriend
17:06What's up?
17:06This is Dante
17:08Look
17:09Maybe this is silly
17:11But I actually just wanted to send you a voice note
17:13Because I thought it might be nice
17:16If you could attach a voice to my name
17:19Instead of just having to read text on the screen
17:22That was hot
17:25That was fun
17:26Oh, okay
17:29That was
17:29I was not expecting that
17:32Oh, yeah, this is fun
17:34Okay
17:35How does he sound?
17:36He sounds cute
17:38How can you get that from her voice?
17:40But he does
17:41He sounds cute
17:42He's really like putting himself out there, isn't he?
17:44The confidence is confidencing
17:48Jordan, where are you?
17:49Oh
17:53He's sad
17:58Favourite gelato flavour
18:00No biggie
18:00Just so I know what to order
18:05And here's Geordie
18:06Are you coming in second yet again?
18:08I need to listen to that again
18:10Peyton
18:11My soon to be girlfriend
18:13What's up?
18:14This is Dante
18:18Down in Melbourne
18:19It's decision day for Ariana
18:23She's been texting 26 year old Noori
18:26And 36 year old Sam
18:29She's concerned Noori might not be ready to settle down yet
18:36And while she initially felt more compatible with Sam
18:47His texts last night raised red flags
18:51And things haven't gotten better
18:59I hate to ask for anything from Sam
19:01Oh, nah
19:03Nothing
19:03No, nothing
19:04I have two hours left to make my decision
19:07And I have not heard from Sam since last night
19:10At all
19:13All right
19:14So
19:16Let's message Sam again and see what the goal is
19:19Because
19:21Surely he can give me something
19:24All right
19:25Nah, fuck him, whatever
19:34Should we send someone to check your pulse
19:40I sent him a message
19:47I sent Sam a message
19:51He better have a real good fucking excuse if he wants to come back and have a shot
19:54But like
19:55He's got to get his ass into gear
20:00Hi
20:01Hi
20:02Hi
20:03Um
20:04Okay
20:05So the office has been trying to get onto Sam all day
20:08Mm-hmm
20:09Um
20:11We have just gotten onto him
20:14He basically said he just decided you're not his cup of tea and he's pulled out
20:17Amazing
20:19Cool
20:21I'm not his cup of tea
20:26Mmm
20:27That's really fucking shitty
20:29Anyway
20:30I don't think he really gave it a fair go to know what kind of cup of anything I am
20:35Can I like walk?
20:38Now I'm really angry so
20:42Hey Ari
20:44Ari
20:45Yeah
20:46Are you all right?
20:47I just wanted to check on you
20:48No, I'm all right
20:49I'm just like it's so frustrating
20:53This is what's wrong with modern dating
20:55This is it
20:56People have no balls to just communicate what they want
20:59If they're not into it, they're not into it
21:01Bad luck
21:01Don't fucking ghost someone
21:03Yeah
21:03Like go fuck yourself
21:05It's fucking rude
21:06It's disrespectful
21:07And
21:08Not really giving me much of a
21:11The choice that I thought I was gonna have
21:14Cheers guys
21:17I get the vibe that Nuri's a sweet guy
21:20But I wanna settle down
21:22I wanna have kids
21:23I wanna get married
21:24And he's younger
21:25So I don't know if he's on the same page
21:31But I don't have another choice
21:35I'm just gonna go on a date with Nuri
21:37I'm just gonna go on a date with Nuri
21:39And I guess we'll find out
21:45What's the worst that can happen?
21:47Ariana's decision might have been made for her
21:51But in Coffs Harbour
21:54Payton still has a choice to make
21:58Jordan's been taking a slow and steady approach
22:02Whereas Dante has gone all out
22:05And Payton feels so drawn to him
22:09She's decided to give him a call
22:11All right
22:14Off we go
22:14Hello
22:27Hi Dante
22:27It's Payton
22:29Oh this isn't Dante
22:31This is Mrs Cromwell
22:32His secretary
22:33He's just getting out of the shower
22:36I'll just put him on for you
22:38Okay
22:40He's uh
22:40He's dripping wet
22:41Got lots of muscles
22:43And he's very handsome
22:44Oh okay
22:45Is that right?
22:47Yes
22:48Oh I'm so sorry about that Payton
22:50She's hopeless
22:51Wow
22:52Yeah look
22:53I uh
22:53I really didn't want our first time talking to go like that
22:56Oh dear
22:58So um
23:00Tell me a bit more about yourself
23:03So I um
23:04Yeah far out
23:05I don't know
23:06Where do you want me to start?
23:09Okay
23:09So like
23:11What would you say is your like usual type?
23:15I just kind of want somebody like
23:17Who
23:18I don't know
23:19I've got kind of connection or like has a good personality
23:22And for what it's worth I really like you so far
23:24Like it's been nice talking to you
23:26Yeah no absolutely
23:27I think um
23:28It has been so so nice to speak to you
23:31It's been lovely to talk to you too
23:34And um
23:35Yeah I will be in touch
23:38Yeah
23:39Sounds good
23:40Sounds good
23:40Have a lovely day
23:42Yeah you too
23:43Okay bye
23:49How did that go?
23:50It was a lot
23:53Holy
23:54The way he started that
23:56I wanted to throw up
23:57What was that?
24:00Yeah Mrs Cumberbatch really didn't spark that fire in me
24:03I'm not gonna lie
24:05In modern dating one wrong move can end a relationship before it even begins
24:11Peyton had planned to choose Dante
24:17But is now making a snap decision
24:21To choose Jordan
24:23I'm sweating
24:31I can feel sweat patches
24:36I can feel sweat patches
24:48Can you see them?
24:50No
24:50No good
24:52You know I was very disappointed by the little interaction I had with Sam
24:58I don't want to be let down again
25:00Like that's what I'm nervous about
25:02I have no idea who I'm about to meet
25:05I don't know what he looks like
25:06I don't know anything about him
25:07We haven't really had that big chat
25:09Like do we want kids
25:11Is he looking for the same thing that I'm looking for?
25:13Hi how are you?
25:14I'm good how are you?
25:15Because if he's not over to it
25:17It's not gonna work
25:18Can I get you anything to try?
25:19Could I grab a spice margarita please?
25:21And that's scary because if this doesn't go well I have no backup plan
25:25It's just like back out into the wilderness
25:29I can't do this dating thing anymore man
25:31I can't
25:32I can't
25:41So
25:43How are you?

26:32Hot and cute at the same time
26:33Like yeah he's a dreamboat
26:35Fuck
26:40Am I what you expected?
26:41Not really
26:44I honestly didn't know what to expect
26:48I'm not disappointed though
26:49Yeah?
26:50Yeah
26:50Cool
26:53What about you?
26:55Who did you expect to see here?
26:58Honestly
26:58Probably
27:00Probably like a blonde
27:04Probably like a blonde
27:06And a green dress with dimples
27:08Oh
27:10Nice eyes
27:11I guess it was you
27:12I don't know
27:13Nice tattoos
27:14I can see them
27:14Yeah
27:16Yeah
27:16I've got a couple of those
27:17I've got exploring later
27:18Exploring
27:21Straight up
27:21Settle down
27:23She's a good looking girl
27:24It's early days
27:25There might be something there
27:26We'll see
27:27We'll see
27:28What were you saying?
27:28What were you
27:30I've only got you speechless
27:31Speechless?
27:32Yeah
27:33No I've always got something to say
27:34Yeah yeah
27:35Yeah
27:39Okay good
27:39So you've got a sense of humour
27:40You're cheeky
27:41That's right
27:41A little bit
27:42Yeah
27:42God
27:44I could definitely see myself calling for Nuri
27:47Definitely
27:48But I still have to have that little bit of a guard up to be like
27:52Okay
27:53I want to settle down
27:53I want to have kids
27:54And he's younger
27:55So are we going to be on the same page?
27:59He's so cute though
28:03Wow
28:04So 26 huh?
28:05Yeah
28:06Little baby
28:07Your baby
28:08Yeah
28:08Well you'll find out I'm very mature
28:10Are you?
28:10I'm mostly mature
28:11We'll see
28:12We'll see
28:13So okay
28:14We're going to
28:15I'm just going to cut to the nitty gritty
28:16Yeah
28:17Gotta do it
28:17Help me
28:18What about kids?
28:20Really?
28:22You're like what?
28:25I mean I'm only 26
28:26I know but I mean like I wanted to buy like 25
28:29But like we're a bit late so now I'm like oh
28:33Okay
28:33Oh no
28:37Did you guys want to order some food or anything?
28:40Oh we would love to order some food
28:42Yeah um
28:43Yes please thank you
28:44Yeah what would you like?
28:46Yeah so Ari's obviously asked me like five minutes into the date
28:48If I was keen to have kids on the first date
28:52I don't know a little bit off-putting anyway
28:54Anyway um chicken veal
29:07This was a very last minute decision choosing Jordan
29:09The nerves are absolutely at a 10
29:14What have I done?
29:19I think only time will tell if I'm happy with choosing Jordan
29:21I'm hoping that Jordan brings the same energy that he had over text like
29:29Chill and wanting to you know to get to know me more
29:38Jesus Christ
29:40Dante sort of plays in the back of my mind but did he bring you the dog?
29:45I'm excited to give Jordan a go
29:49No not him okay
29:51And hopefully I've made the right decision
30:04Hello hi
30:06How you going?
30:07I'm good how are you?
30:08Good Jordan?
30:09Yes
30:13You look amazing
30:14Thanks nice yellow shirt
30:15The immediate vibe is yeah he's handsome so yeah
30:19It'll be um interesting I'm excited to get to know him more
30:22What do you think this is?
30:23Well it's a book but
30:26I wrote down everything you've told me so far
30:28I've never had someone bring a book of notes about me to a date before
30:37Yeah so now I can just go back and check it
30:40Um but there's a first time for everything
30:42Look I'll give you a quick glimpse of my uh
30:44Well save it because do you want to go for a snitty?
30:47Yeah I really want to go for a snitty
30:48All right
30:48It's my favourite meal
30:49Yeah well let's go
30:50Let's do it
30:51I feel amazing
30:55Payton's appearance is everything I was hoping for
30:59She's incredibly pretty
31:01And obviously we've already formed that connection through texting
31:04I'll get your seat for you
31:05Oh
31:08Thanks
31:10We could definitely have a love story on our hands
31:13Yeah fingers crossed it just keeps going well
31:15Everything so far has been amazing
31:22I can get used to this though
31:24Do you like Sydney?
31:26I love Sydney I love this part
31:28I mean how many times have you been to Brisbane?
31:29Um I think about three times
31:31What'd you think of it?
31:32Yeah it's all right
31:34Wouldn't live there?
31:35I mean I haven't really ever considered living there
31:38Haven't met the right guy maybe from Brisbane?
31:41Yeah that's that's the reason
31:43My track record is that all my exes were J's
31:46So I've dated a Jordan
31:48Oh whoa
31:48A James and a Jaden
31:51Why'd you break up without Jordan? He sounds awesome
31:55He actually was my first ever boyfriend
31:57He was your first?
31:58Yeah
31:59First and last
32:03I know you're dying to see what's on the other side
32:04I am because I've never had this
32:06I've never
32:07I've never done this before
32:07I've never done this before either
32:10But I thought I'm going to take this seriously
32:12Yeah so I just jotted down the things
32:14Your interests and stuff
32:15So I know
32:15Hit me with that
32:16Uh you said favourite day is Saturday?
32:18Mm-hmm
32:18Runs business slash works with dad
32:20Yes
32:21So what do you mean works with dad
32:22It's like what does he do?
32:23Dad's a concreter
32:24Oh good with your hands
32:26Yeah well I
32:27Wink
32:29Get a tan
32:30I love your tan
32:33Okay how are we feeling?
32:34I'm buzzed
32:35Woo
32:37Now I'm feeling good
32:38Feeling really excited
32:39No we're not that's such a lie
32:41Okay
32:41Be honest
32:50Paseco would you say?
32:54Yeah
32:54If I had a pen I'd put that down too
32:56It feels a bit like
33:01He just sort of has
33:02A bit of a
33:04You know a polished routine for dates
33:06And he's just using all of those moves on me to butter me up
33:10I'm just not sure whether or not he's
33:12In it to get to know me or in it just to win it
33:16Like am I anything like what you expected?
33:18I knew personality would get along for sure
33:21And physically like you're obviously pretty and everything I would hope for
33:25I tick all my boxes Peyton
33:29I'm a little bit nervous about moving together
33:33I'm gonna finish my dreams
33:34I'm hoping that it's just the nerves
33:37See you at the bottom
33:38Okay cheers
33:39And that you know when I get to know him a little bit more that's a non-issue
33:47Oh my notebook
33:48You don't forget your book
33:50I won't even remember your name if I leave this
33:56To be completely honest I am thinking about Dante
33:59Maybe a little bit
34:02I'm a smidge
34:04But we'll just see how it goes
34:09In the love triangle experience a bad first date is never the end of the story
34:16Peyton and Jordan are about to move in together
34:20But the night's still young for Ariana and Nuri
34:24Who've just got onto the subject of having kids
34:30You're like okay cool I'm gonna tell you
34:32Yeah so that's a big thing for me it's having kids
34:37That's why I throw it in there as soon as possible because you know if it's like a no
34:42I'm like why would I bother yeah type thing
34:45I understand that
34:47Don't get me wrong like I want kids but I'm gonna be honest right now in life
34:52I'm just not I'm not looking at that so
34:54No no don't get me wrong I'm not sitting there being like okay impregnate me now
34:57I'm not doing that
35:00That's amazing man
35:02Um no no no I'm not sitting there being like that
35:05You know in the next in the next five years that would be nice
35:10Ah sleep
35:14Oh gosh anyway
35:18Cool
35:18All right first date
35:23Pregnant me
35:23Just just chuck when you mean
35:27Oh is that a snore
35:29Sorry
35:31I don't snore when I sleep it's just when I laugh
35:34I'll let you know
35:35We're sharing rooms now are we
35:37Obviously her bringing up kids on a first date is pretty intense
35:40But I do want kids
35:43If things would have progressed until a committed relationship
35:46Then there's something that we can talk about
35:48We're sharing a bed
35:49I'm just assuming
35:49Is that what we're doing we're gonna share a bread
35:52I'm assuming otherwise you might be on the couch
35:56Me on the couch are you serious
35:58Fuck no absolutely not
35:59I want to give it everything that I have
36:01I've personally told myself that like the next person that I like commit to
36:06I want them to kind of pretty much be the one
36:07So I'm really excited to kind of see where things go with it
36:11I'm gonna ask you a question
36:12Am I your type?
36:18Yeah
36:20I'm a sucker for nice eyes
36:24We've got that
36:25Yeah
36:27But personality's really made an impact
36:30You mean like an Adonis and be like
36:33Am I not an Adonis?
36:33I haven't seen the Adonis yet
36:38So we'll just
36:39Yeah let's wait and see
36:40Hold on
36:41Hold on
36:42Hold on
36:42Hold on
36:43Hold on
36:44All right go
36:45No but
36:45You can be literally the hottest thing on earth
36:49But if you're not making me laugh
36:50There's no way I'm dating and there's no way
36:53A pasé vibe
36:55Yeah no
36:56I understand
36:56Otherwise I wouldn't be letting you
36:57Fucking stroke my leg like that
36:59I'm the same
37:03Honestly
37:04Yeah
37:05And you know like
37:06A long-term relationship's really got to have the vibe and like the emotional connection there
37:10So that's what I'm looking for
37:12Oh
37:13Yeah
37:13Wow
37:19Wow
37:19I'm gonna kiss you now
37:26Yeah don't
37:30I know I know
37:32I'm not gonna kiss you
37:32I'm like
37:33Maybe not first date
37:34Oh yeah
37:44It's nice to finally meet you
37:46I know same
37:47I had a good night
37:48Yeah
37:50Yeah
37:50Shall we
37:51Yeah let's go
37:52After you
37:52Thank you
37:53So far I have no real concerns about Nuri
37:59If he does act the way he talks
38:02I have nothing to worry about
38:05I am that way
38:06I'm this way
38:07We'll catch later
38:08Nice to meet you
38:11All right
38:12Have a good night
38:13See you shortly
38:13I did deny a kiss tonight
38:19But I'm looking forward to next time that's for sure
38:21It's time to dive into the next phase of the love triangle experience
38:34Less than 24 hours after meeting for the first time
38:38Arianna
38:39Hey
38:40Hey
38:40How are you?
38:41I'm good
38:41How are you?
38:42Hey
38:42How you going?
38:43You took your time
38:43I'm good
38:44How are you?
38:44Yeah good good
38:45It's nice
38:46Welcome home
38:47And Payton
38:49Welcome home
38:50Oh my gosh
38:51Are moving in with their matches
38:54Is dinner ready?
38:56No
38:57I'm kidding
38:57I didn't mean that at all
38:59Sorry honey
39:00It's also move-in day for Mike
39:07All right
39:07Chloe
39:09Strong girl
39:15And Bernie
39:15She's about to move in with Marissa
39:18Met her last night
39:20And now we're ready to share a house
39:23That's not crazy
39:24That's normal
39:25Isn't it?
39:25Everyone does that
39:26After the first date
39:27It's a radical shift from the disposable world of modern dating
39:32Sharing a house with someone they've just met
39:36But Melinda has done some digging on her match Mike
39:40I googled Mike last night
39:45I couldn't help myself
39:46I wasn't going to do it
39:47And then I was like
39:47Oh it's getting the better of me
39:48So yeah I did
39:50A bit of a math steep dive
39:52Look
39:53I'm not your therapist
39:55Stick to your knitting
39:57Groups of women under pressure
39:59Don't cope as well as groups of men under pressure
40:02To me
40:04This is huge
40:06So I need to go in and confront him
40:08And discuss what I've seen with him
40:20Oh my god it's so massive
40:24It's three stories
40:29Oh my god
40:31It feels very surreal that I'm actually about to move in with someone after one date
40:36Oh my god it's so nice
40:39This is lesbian u-haul at its finest
40:42I think this is it I think this is my room
40:47And there's goodies in the bathroom
40:51Oh my god
40:52Stop it
40:53On the first date I'm not gonna lie
40:56Definitely felt awkward
40:57Do you like feminine girls?
41:00Different from what I'm used to I normally go for quite masculine
41:03But I do think in this experience I need to stay hopeful
41:08Because if I let my insecurities creep on in they could potentially ruin something that could be amazing
41:14And Chloe isn't the only one embracing the spirit of the experience
41:21Hi
41:22Hi pretty lady
41:23Hi
41:24How are you?
41:25I'm good how are you?
41:26I was a little bit disappointed that it wasn't like an instant spark
41:29But I'm pretty quick to cut things off and not allow them to grow
41:32So this is a good opportunity as it obviously hasn't been working in the past
41:37Where are you wanting to stay?
41:38Where are you?
41:41I'm assuming you're here
41:43Okay
41:46I'm happy with whatever you want
41:49In terms of sleeping arrangements
41:52I think we go separate for the time being and see where it goes
41:55Yeah, love it
41:56Beautiful
41:57Put our bags there and then we can just take it from there
42:00Great
42:00Right, let's get your bag then
42:06All right, very nice
42:13Bernie is settling into his house in Randwick
42:16Oh, damn
42:23A lot of room for activities
42:25Over text, Marissa's flirty persona peaked Bernie's curiosity
42:31She said she goes to sensual dance classes
42:34And obviously I was like, I'm going to need you to carefully explain
42:38With a lot of details what these sensual dance classes are
42:42When they met in person, Marissa didn't disappoint
42:48How are you?
42:49You good?
42:49I'm good, how are you?
42:50So nice to meet you
42:50You're gorgeous
42:51Nice to meet you
42:51How are you?
42:54Hell yeah
42:57Sparks flew
42:57But then Marissa dropped a surprising piece of information she hadn't revealed in texting
43:07I think it's time to tell you something
43:13You've got a kid
43:17Yeah, I do have a kid
43:18How do I feel about dating your mum?
43:24It's kind of like blindsided me
43:27From the way that you're like chatting it was like you're quite youthful
43:30I don't think that I fit the typical
43:33I guess stereotype
43:36First mum I've ever dated
43:37And I'm moving in with her
43:42But I hope she's the same fun spontaneous like light-hearted person
43:46But I was sexy
43:51I did enjoy the kiss last night
43:52Who wouldn't enjoy a good kiss?
43:56I'm looking forward to seeing him again
43:57I think I just want to understand him in general a bit better and maybe talk about
44:16Deeper things and really see if we can you know deepen our connection
44:21So exciting to see how things go
44:25Cute
44:25Yeah, this is nice isn't it?
44:27And then there's I think those are gifts for you
44:29Oh yours
44:31I think I'm just planning to go in there and kind of suss out the vibe
44:35Look how beautiful
44:36I love a good patio
44:39I love a good patio
44:40What would you say?
44:42No, just the way you said it
44:43It's funny
44:44I think this is
44:46Prosecco vibes
44:47Oh, I love it
44:48This is great
44:49That's great
44:50Prosecco vibes right here
44:51It is definitely
44:52It is lush weather today
44:54So
44:54Lush
44:55Yeah
44:58What's the number one thing you want to do right now?
45:01Like what would we do together to not be bored?
45:04Bit of coffee
45:06I don't drink coffee
45:07I don't either
45:08Okay, what do you do?
45:08I like a chai latte
45:10No chai
45:11Love that
45:12Macho
45:12Beautiful
45:14Elephant in the room
45:16There's gonna be another person moving in at some point
45:18I know
45:19How do you feel about that?
45:20I mean, I don't think anyone would like that
45:22I mean, I don't think anyone would like that
45:25Could be exciting
45:26We could end up hating each other like throwing plates
45:29Yeah
45:31I feel like you'd crack the shits easily
45:36Right
45:39American, so American
45:41Why is it funny?
45:44Why is it funny?
45:45I could imagine you with your accent saying
45:47I think I'm speaking to my high school crush
45:52Straight out of an high school musical scene
45:54Zac Efron is gonna come out the corner at any moment
45:56He's gonna keep up with the American stereotypes this whole time
45:59It'll wear off at some point
46:01It's just too fresh
46:02I don't know if if this is bernie's way of flirting
46:06It might be but I do think there's a limit to it
46:10Oh my god, kookaburra
46:13That's crazy
46:13How cute
46:14That has to be a sign
46:16Either a good one or a bad one
46:18I don't know
46:20Okay
46:21I just got here
46:25I don't want to feel the vibe right away
46:27But yeah, I think we're gonna end up having to have some some conversations later today
46:36Well, this looks nice
46:38Thanks, it's fun, huh?
46:39Yeah, it is fun
46:43Makes your pecs look nice
46:46Thanks
46:46I really like when my muscles are complimented
46:49Oh, we should do like a haul like what's in Jordan's bag
46:53I was gonna give you like space to do it on your own so you didn't have to
46:57Too late
47:01None of it
47:01Is it this?
47:03Is that?
47:08Oh, okay, we're putting it on
47:11Do you know who this guy is?
47:14No, but I guess I'm gonna find out
47:16You will his name is
47:19Generic man and he only solves mundane tasks
47:23Okay
47:26That can't be real
47:28Comes with a cape too
47:29Of course he does
47:33Yeah, it's really nailing the cop like putting a nail in the coffin of like
47:37The whole putting an act on thing for me
47:39What the hell is that?
47:48It's like this is
47:50Not what I've signed up for
47:52Okay, I'll put it in the bin
47:53All right
47:54It doesn't deserve the bin
47:55Ah, well then what?
47:56Don't bin it
47:57You laughed at it
47:58You made it feel bad
48:01Apologize to it
48:06This is gonna be the longest week of my life
48:09Month
48:09Now let's start putting it into the cupboards, eh?
48:14Yep
48:17Not sure I've made the right decision here
48:24Melinda has moved into the house she'll share with her match Mike
48:29And after googling him last night she has a lot on her mind
48:34Hey, hey
48:35Hello
48:37So day one, hey
48:39Yeah
48:42So I did google you last night
48:44Oh, did you?
48:47I did see the infamous
48:49I'm not your therapist
48:52Yes
48:53How do you feel about that?
48:58Yeah, look it wasn't my finest moment that's for sure
49:01But I don't think it matters
49:03You know, I think people have gotten over it now
49:06You know, I mean it was just a
49:08Thoughtless moment in time
49:12Ah, do you think you've learnt from it?
49:14Yeah
49:15Yeah, definitely
49:16Yeah
49:17Also, I did see a few articles mentioning the word misogynist as well
49:23Oh
49:24Yeah
49:26Do you think there's truth behind that?
49:28No, no, absolutely not
49:30I'd have to push back on that
49:32Because I'm certainly not a misogynist
49:36I just wanted to bring up as well
49:37When I met you and I called you a gym asshole
49:41Oh yeah
49:43I didn't mean to be rude when I said that
49:46Right
49:47But I do feel that's quite inconsiderate
49:51Okay
49:51To leave a weight plate deliberately on a bar
49:57Right
49:58In my defence, it's probably been seven or eight years since I've done it
50:03But no, you're right
50:05Back then I guess I was being inconsiderate
50:07And I'm glad that you've pointed that out to me
50:10Now
50:12I'm better for it
50:13I think like every gym ever has sent out that, you know, just a friendly reminder email to
50:20Please put your weights back and wipe down the equipment
50:22Okay
50:23I just feel like I wouldn't really harp on that
50:30I think that it's
50:31Am I harping?
50:33Well, okay, you know, I accept that criticism
50:36Yeah
50:36And, um, yeah, okay, I should, uh, I'll just be very mindful
50:41Anytime I load up a bench press, I'll be thinking of you
50:47Anytime someone confronts you with something that they find irritating or a problem for them
50:54You know, you've got to listen
50:56But she really did hammer the point home
50:59It feels like there's just been this preconceived notion
51:02A judgment of me before I even got out of the starting gate
51:07Now it makes me a little bit hesitant to open up to her and be vulnerable
51:13It's just not a good way to start what potentially could be a romantic relationship
51:24While Mike struggles to get out of the starting gates
51:28Down the road in Coogee, Chloe is going all out for her match, Bec, with an indoor picnic date night
51:35Oh, she's so cute
51:38You look so good in your jammies
51:40You look so good in your jammies
51:42Go sit
51:43Aww
51:45This is really sweet
51:46Give me a cuddle
51:46Oh, you're so welcome
51:51So, we've got some yummy snacks
51:53Yep
51:54And some fruit
51:55Beautiful
51:56Whilst we have a nibble
51:57I have some questions
51:59Maybe we can get to know each other on a deeper level
52:02Love that
52:03Start off easy
52:04That's so sweet
52:05What's your favourite flower?
52:08My favourite flower is a tulip
52:10That's my favourite flower
52:12No, it's not
52:12There it is
52:15What do you want out of this experience?
52:19I am so hopeful that I'm gonna like
52:22Find my person
52:24Find my person
52:25Mm-hmm
52:25Yes, anytime
52:26We'll tell with that one
52:29What would you say your pet peeves are?
52:32Um, probably when someone like is acting like something's wrong
52:38And you ask them like if they're okay
52:40They don't
52:40And they go, no, no, no, I'm fine, I'm fine
52:43What about you?
52:44People that are quick to like break boundaries
52:49Like I'm putting my boundaries in play because, you know, I like you so much
52:53I don't want you to tarnish what we have
52:57Did you just say you like me?
52:58Did you just let that slip?
53:03Um
53:05Do you have a crush on me?
53:07Wow
53:11I feel like I'm going a bit hot
53:12I've got a bit nervous now
53:14Whoa
53:15Sorry
53:15I'm asking the questions not you
53:19But the effort that you've put in tonight is winning me over that's for sure
53:23I think this date night has been quite the breakthrough for us
53:29I think this is the nicest home date anyone's ever done for me
53:31I am seeing a different side of Beck tonight
53:33It's so kind, thank you, I really do appreciate it
53:37No, it's the least you deserve
53:38Oh, stop it
53:40Yeah, I'm feeling a lot more optimistic that this is like likely to turn into something romantic
53:47In the love triangle experience, a lot can happen in a day
53:53While things are heating up for Chloe and Beck
53:58Marissa is cooling on Bernie after he mocked her American accent
54:04How you feeling?
54:05Feeling all right
54:06Yeah?
54:07Yeah
54:07A bit overwhelmed you reckon?
54:09Uh, yeah, maybe a little bit
54:11Mm
54:13What are you thinking about?
54:16A lot of things
54:17Is there anything
54:19That like worries you?
54:22Yeah
54:23Today I think there were a couple moments where I almost felt like insulted to be honest
54:28Like making fun about your accent being American
54:30Yeah, it's it's all right
54:32No, and I'm
54:33Here and there
54:33I am really sorry
54:35No, I am really sorry
54:36Like I my joking is a bit too far sometimes
54:39But now I know
54:40Yeah
54:40I'm really sorry
54:41I hope that's okay
54:42That's good
54:43I hope we can move past it
54:44Yes
54:44I'm really sorry
54:45I am actually pretty laid back
54:48And I do like the banter just I think I got concerned that I think
54:55Maybe we're not on the same level
54:57Yeah
54:57Charity wise
55:00I think we're in a bit of different places
55:03I do 100% say that I'm like
55:06Joke around quite like lighthearted about things in general
55:10Um doesn't mean that I'm not mature
55:12I mean look like you should definitely be who you are
55:15Oh no 100%
55:16Yeah, yeah
55:16But I also like think that I can read the room
55:19And I have read the room
55:21I appreciate that
55:24I feel much much better after that chat
55:28Totally respect um where you're coming from
55:31He owned what he had done and I respect that
55:37Yeah, I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable about anything
55:39And yeah
55:42I feel like we connected and now we can move forward and I think that's great
55:46I feel better for having this conversation
55:48New beginnings right
55:58There's been a shift
56:08Yeah
56:09Can you tell me about that?
56:10Do you want me to be real on this or do you want me to kind of follow your lead
56:12Because I've got other thoughts
56:17Like that whole thing just kind of gave me eek a little bit yesterday
56:20Like I get like where she was coming from
56:23But like I'm just like why like just have some fun man
56:27Yeah, every day I have to get at least 10,000 steps in
56:31You know me
56:32I'm a fun guy
56:34But yeah, I'm just look if we're being 100% honest I feel like she is very serious
56:41And yeah
56:44Does that set the best tone to start off with?
56:46No, because now I feel like the fun is gone
56:49Sorry, just being honest
56:51Next time
56:53I saw this gentleman sat on her bed
56:56A controversy explodes
57:00You're nowhere near as relevant as you think you are
57:03You are a 50 year old washed up reality tv star
57:09And the first couple's party
57:12You look amazing
57:13Thanks
57:14Brings some couples closer together
57:17Why don't you do this?
