What was the word in the villa when we got the text.
Were you surprised?
I was very surprised.
Yeah.
I was sitting on the couch going, like, oh, who were you
kind of looking at, whatever.
And I was just trying to -- they asked you were you interested,
and I was positioning myself, like a friend to give advice.
So I was, like, really shocked.
We hit it off easy like friends, but that's happened in
the past with me before with girls, I have been friends with
them and then it blossoms.
Yeah, of course.
So that's how it kind of felt, which you could be
potential.
So that's why I chose you.
What was everyone's reaction when you got the text because,
honestly, I don't think everyone was --
it was definitely a reaction.
Don't think everyone would have thought I would have picked
you because -- they thought I was joking
when I said I got a text.
They said good one.
No, I said I lakes got a text.
Oh, my gosh.
Were you surprised I texted you?
Yeah, kind of.
.
Why.
Is this I thought we had a good talk earlier and stuff so I
was flattered, but I was really surprised.
Because I was close to Alexandra in the house so I thought this
would be interesting.
Can I ask why you picked me?
Mm-hmm.
I'm just keep an open mind.
You were, like, hilarious.
Funny.
Yeah.
And, you know, I just want to get to know you better.
Nothing more than that.
Yeah, cool.
I'd like to get you out of the villa a little bit.
Thank you so much.
See what's going on.
It's nice to get out.
Back at the villa, Alexandra and caro return and check in
with seven millennials on a rented couch.
Hey, girl!

Did they leave?
Yeah.
Hello!

What was his type of personality.
You know the guys that go, ah, ah, like --

Caro just got back from a date, and she immediately said
she just was not feeling cormick.
That's a positive for me.
How do you feel?
About the date?
About, like, Elizabeth and that?
I don't like it, but, you know, from what she's told me and I
like believe her like she did that with both guys, but I think
like cormack is a very assertive guy, confident, so he's
definitely going to shoot his shot, you know what I mean?
Yeah, for sure.
But, yeah, I don't know.
I think I likely know where Elizabeth's head's at, so --
I think she really likes you.
Know where Elizabeth's head's at and, like, I'm not
worried in that fact, but I think it's, like, to the point
now where, like, you know, I like Elizabeth, so another guy,
like, taking her out on a date kind of, like, I don't know
gives me the pity stomach feeling, doesn't feel too good.
I feel like he's probably into Alexandra.
Alexandra seems into it.
I can tell a girl how she turns up.
Mallory's type, says she goes to Vegas all the time, I know you
aren't liking bro.
Mallory likes the guys who are kind of hard to get.
She likes that guy.
She wants a guy who's going to come to her, drop some cash,
take her out and make all the moves.
She kind of likes a smoother cat, like, I don't know, not a

At the end of the day, I'm pretty smooth.

I never like a big romantic guy but this is probably the
most romantic date.
You're one of the first girls that approached me when I came

I don't know, you're super easy going and super easy to talk to,
so, like, that's what I'm looking for in a girl.
Yeah, I know I will have explaining to do when I get back
to the villa.
I think that's what we're here for.
I've said that to the girls giving them advice when they ask
me, you know, you can't not look into something because you like
someone else, whatnot.
How do you feel being coupled up with Zac and then coming on a
date with a guy you just met for the first time?
Honestly, I feel a little uncomfortable, but I feel it
would be stupid not to give someone a chance to have a
conversation and see if there's anything there.
I've known you for, like, four days or --
I know.
While cormack and dilan return from their dates, Weston
is opening up and not just his shirts.
I'm getting to know her but I feel like there's this pressure
to hold hands, kiss.
I don't know how Mallory is doing, but I feel like with
y'all being close and y'all hit it off, I feel like Mallory's
probably not going to step on toes with you because --
I know, but I don't want her to, like -- I don't want her to
hold back, like, you know I love her.
But if you have a connection, tell her.
I went on a date with someone and my friend went on a date
with someone.
Whoever had the stronger connection at the end of the
day, I would speak up on that.
Hey, guys!
( Cheering ) There are probably two girls
I am attracted to.
Kyra and Elizabeth are the two girls I'm I attracted to.
Elizabeth has a connection with Zac.
At least I tried.
It's still early dames they're only just starting off as well.
So you never know.
What?
(Inaudible).
Today was a day and a half.
What are, you scared I'm going to change?
No.
I don't know.
Great chat, Elizabeth.
After one date with the irishman, she's dub-lin down on
her love for Zac.
Meanwhile, caro continues to play the field.
She's, like -- caro is, like, a kingpin.
It is very telling of her mindset.
I feel like caro may just be trying to, like, have all the
guys want her, maybe, like, scheme a little bit.
Just she has a lot of options.
Yeah, yeah.
So she's safe, you know.
If that don't work, then I'm going to shoot for this.
If that doesn't work, I'm going to shoot for that.
Yeah, trying to plant a seed here and there.
I'm in a -- the situation I'm in, it's not good, and the girl
that I'm having the situation with, you just don't know what's
going on in that girl's head.
How do you like Dillon?
I don't know.
I like him.
I think he's cool.
Awkward, girl.
But I also like friends in the house and I want to respect
what she has going.
Everyone getting to know each other.
Yeah, that's honestly what it was.
As long as no one's territorial, I feel like.
You know I love it.

So you guys are the same person.
If you fight with her, I fight with her.
To Dillon texted Mallory and said he wanted to go on a date

Obviously, in the back of your mind, like anyone, you would be,

Oh, god, what if we both like him.
He.
He's really cool.
Yeah.
I think it's easy to talk to him.
Yeah, I agree.
So now what?
I don't know, dude.

Recap!
Tattoo chest took hairy heart chest girl on a date last night.
Time to talk it out.
I just want to talk to you because, obviously, I didn't get
a chance to talk to you last night because I know you are
coupled with Elizabeth.
So, like, me picking her, were you a bit surprised?
Not, like, sort of, like, in a sense, but Elizabeth's, like,
a very attractive girl, like -- that's, like, with car o I
was attracted to her and Elizabeth is so outgoing and
nice, so I wanted to pick Elizabeth, but being on a date
with her, I felt like I don't think she wants to be on a date
with me.
So that's cool for you, bro.
We're good.
If I was in your position, you know, you've got to follow your
gut and your heart because you're trying to have the most
enjoyable time possible.
But it's cool.
I appreciate that man.
Absolutely.
Last night when Elizabeth came back after going on a date
and everything, I think it just solidified that me and her do,
like, really have a really deep connection.
How are you feeling?
I don't know how I'm feeling.
( Laughter ) Like I don't know.
Such a long day yesterday.
Two dates on the first day.
Both my dates went pretty well, I think.
It was a in your opinion natural conversation.
Literally non-stop laughing.
Mallory seemed hilarious.
She has this great dry humor that I find hysterical.
So tell me about yours, man.
Caro, like, the date went pretty well.
Yeah, I think she likes me.
I think she does.
I would be surprised if she didn't.
But again, I know there are more eyes on her as well, so it's
definitely going to be competitive.
Yeah.
I'm definitely going to, like, pursue that with her.
I think so.
What happened with Liz?
She seemed really genuine.
I wasn't going to pick her because Zac had a good
connection, but I felt like, if I don't -- if I'm ever going to
go on a date with her, it's last night.
But I did tell her I'm attracted to her.
I talk about it like this is a job, but I have been doing
this since I was 16, so I have ten years' experience in
handling, like, dealing with situations with girls, like, I'm
always confident.
I'm going to be confident if it doesn't or does go my way, so
whatever happens happens, but, yeah, I'm always confident.
Confidence, a new fragrance from the house of cormack.
I want to try to get to know Michael.
What do you think I should talk to him about?
I want to try to, like, get to know him.
I'm thinking some things don't gotta be, like, what's
your family -- you can really just chat.
So I'm going to try to, like, bond with him today.
So I decided, eh, eh, eh, eh, dress up real cued because you
know I'm still single so I have to dress like I'm single because
I still have to, you know, find myself a man.
Do I look fancy?
You look elegant, you know, like whenever the first morning
like whenever we had spoke in the bathroom and you made it
clear that I kind of want to get to know you.
Maybe you should tell cashel just to let him know.
I saw you click after the conversation, and I thought they
hit it off, let me take a step back, so that's what I did.
Yeah.
Like a little ping-pong ball.
( Laughter ) I don't think so.
High five.
If you like high fives.
I like high fives, they're fun.
Your laugh reminds me of, like, a dad laugh.
Like -- like eh-eh-eh -- I think it's mutual between
us.
There might be something there and there might not be anything
there.
So we're just going to ride the same train, maybe if that
continues to happen, who knows what could happen.
Coming up.

I hope she's not alarmic to nuts.
Oh, it's cashel!

I see how you operate, and I like watching you operate
because I kind of feel, like, physically pulled towards you,
like magnetically.
You know that feeling?
Mm-hmm.

Lt with you that first conversation, and
that freaked me out.
I know, I couldn't believe it.

Say bye.

I'm so sad.
Like I literally just felt like I'd lost one of my best friends.
I know it's crazy because we've only seen each other for a week,
but you really get to know somebody when he's all you get
to talk to and I've had his back and he's had mine as well.

Oh, this sucks, dude.
Man, it gets real in here fast.
It gets real in here real fast.
Like Michael has to go home.
♪ ♪
Bye!
( Applause ) Love you!
Be good!
He looks good when he walks, too.
( Laughter ) I was upset that I didn't get
more time in the villa to meet somebody else, but, you know,
now I'm looking forward to going back, seeing my dogs.
I know they miss me, and I'm just going to keep my heart
open.
Coming on date day nine, çó ge ready for more love, more
island, more scandals, more audience voting, more games, and
more islanders.
