[Sad music]
Iain: Previously, on "Love Island USA."
The islanders delivered their verdicts...
Carmen: The couple we're sending home is...
Zay and Imani.
- Destiny and Kyle.
- Zay and Imani.
- Kyle and Destiny.
- Scott and Johnnie.
Scott: One half of the couple, Iain said,
it's on more of a friends vibe.
So, the couple we've decided to send home is...
Zay and Imani.
[Sad music]
Zay: To see her get up and walk away because you said that.
- She got up and walked away because you said that.
- I mean, I have no regrets.
How are you feeling?
- Feeling good.
[Applause]
[Tense music]
Iain: Tonight...
things get emotional...
with the messages from home.
- [Echoing] I'm not a big fan of Destiny anymore.
[Tense music]
[Upbeat music]
Iain: Welcome to "Love Island USA."
The islanders chose Zay and Imani
as their least compatible couple.
To be fair, Zay and Imani do have one thing in common.
They both got dumped on episode 34 of "Love Island USA."
So what did Destiny and Kyle make of it all?
- How you doing?
- You know...
I've been better.
Like, that was not the easiest situation to be in.
I'm glad that we ended up going with our decision ultimately.
- Me too, yeah.
- Because clearly the rest of the group,
for the most part, saw it as well.
You know?
- If I'm being honest,
I'm a little surprised by the results.
I'm surprised that Hannah and Marco did vote for us.
I'm surprised by that. Destiny: I agree. I agree.
No, I honestly would 100% agree with that.
- You know, no hard feelings, but...
- No hard feelings at all,
but it did... - I was... caught me off guard.
- Hannah and Imani are close, and Marco and Zay were close.
He wasn't going to vote against him.
Hannah and Marco... you know, it is interesting
that they decided to say,
me and Kyle, but no hard feelings.
I'm just glad that the majority
and the rest of the group sees exactly what it is.
But, you know, as far as me and Kyle go,
I'm happy that me and him are, you know,
content with what we have and what we're building.
It feels good.
At the end of the day, like we said,
we know what it is, you know?
And clearly other people see that as well.
And I'm really content with that.
Iain: Bergie and Taylor voted Scott and Johnnie
the least compatible couple.
Never nice hearing people saying
"You're not good enough for your partner."
Oh, which reminds me, I've got lunch with the in-laws tomorrow.
- What did Taylor and Bergie say?
- [Whispering] I don't remember.
- I don't know. I just expect them to say Zay and Imani.
Johnnie: Yeah, that one confused me.
Scott: Interesting.
What they say isn't going to affect how I approach it.
- I don't think any opinions in here dictate what's real or not.
Their opinion definitely didn't make me feel
weird about our situation.
Like, because it really didn't feel like it pertained to us.
- Yeah, I was...
Bergie just said those words.
"Scott and Johnnie," and I'm like, "What?"
- [Laughing] That was so... God, I was so shocked.
- "Bro, what are you saying?"
- And I don't have any, like, hard feelings
towards it either because...
- No, I find it more funny than anything.
- We've judged everyone in here and they've judged all of us.
I don't really talk to Tay about my relationship with Scott,
so she really doesn't know anything about it.
And Bergie, I've never spoken to about
my relationship with Scott.
I respect everyone's decisions and their opinions
and everything, but I take it with a grain
of salt because they didn't know much about us.
- I knew the comment about Zay saying
about friends would cause problems.
I didn't think it would cause Imani to walk off.
Jesus.
- She definitely needed to know that, and I think that it was
a huge deciding factor, and we couldn't not
include that into why that we decided that.
- We're still here, so... - How do you feel about that?
- The fact that we're still here?
Obviously I'm happy.
I was pretty confident in the fact
that we weren't the least compatible couple.
I feel like if I was nervous going into that,
thinking I was the least compatible couple,
then this wou... something wouldn't be right here.
You know what I mean?
- Either way, I was like...
thinking like...
to really, really, really
enjoy every second in here.
Like... - Yeah, definitely.
- Because we could be gone tomorrow.
- Exactly. Exactly.
* Baby, you're my hidden treasure *
Iain: So if Zay and Imani's departure,
it's another couple down
and another double bed for sale on the Fijian Craigslist.
Well, for the rest of them, it's time for bed.
Destiny: Hi, ladies. Hi, baby.
Kassy: Hey, booboo.
It was a crazy night, huh?
Destiny: Tonight was rough. That's crazy.
Marco: If you would have kept Zay and Imani here,
some relationships start best as friendships.
- Yeah. - You know?
Fucking crazy, dude.
Carmen: But I was glad that, like, once Scott brought it up,
Johnnie addressed it and was like,
"That's why I voted for you, Imani.
Because I think you deserve 100."
* Don't care about the stormy weather *
* Because I know we'd be good together *
* They ain't got the map I got *
* X marks the spot *
- In this together.
* Right between the palms once I get you *
- No one said our names tonight. - Nope.
- Kinda has to make us feel good.
- No, I feel really good about it.
- It's nice to know that, like,
people see that we do have, like...
- A genuine connection. - A genuine connection.
* Baby, you're my hidden treasure *
* Been searching for you forever *
* Don't care about the stormy weather *
* Cause I know we'd be good together *
* They ain't got the map I got *
* X marks the spot *
* Right between the palms *
* Once I get you in my arms won't let go forever *
* Cause, baby, you're my hidden treasure *
[Upbeat music]
Iain: It's the morning after Zay and Imani headed off
to embark on a magical romance that I imagine will last
until the end of...
the sentence I'm currently saying.
Taylor S: Good morning. Hannah: Good morning, babe.
- Scott, Johnnie, how y'all sleep?
Scott: Really well, thank you.
Johnnie: I want to still be asleep.
- I definitely miss Imani.
I miss her coming to hug us and stuff.
- Last night was hard for me.
Said goodbye to one of my closest friends in here.
- It's always sad when people leave.
- You know, we only got a few days left in here, so,
you know, let's just enjoy every second of it.
- Alrighty.
* Do you wanna be loved? *
- Let's have a good day.
* 'Cause I wanna be loved *
Destiny: This gonna be a good day.
Kyle: Yes, it is.
- [Laughing] Shut up!
Taylor S: I'm coming with you, Hannah.
Hannah: We all miss her so much. - I know.
- Shit, why did they vote for her ass?
Destiny: Dude, that be you and Bergie
smacking out loud at night?
- Oh, no! Could you hear us?
Destiny: [Laughing] Yes.
Y'all are the loudest kissers I've ever heard in my life.
Hannah: There's no way, we fell asleep.
Taylor S: It probably was Johnny and Scott.
Destiny: Really? Okay.
I'm like, "Who kisses that loud?"
- Morning, Scott. - Good day, Bergie.
- Oh, shit, bro.
Oh, fuck that.
Yeah. - I'm allergic to wasps.
Leo: Are you, actually?
So you better get your ass up out this kitchen.
* I wanna love you *
* You wanna be loved *
Fuck! That shit is so hot.
- You know, last night was definitely tough
to go from such a high and have, like, such a fun dinner
together to be, like, "vote for someone in here."
- Obviously, I miss Imani.
I genuinely did feel there was a spark with her and Zay,
and she seemed super-excited about it.
And then Johnnie, obviously, it's no, like, hard feelings.
Obviously, this was a tough decision.
I just felt like... up until the recoupling
there was so many options that were open and not closed off,
in which I feel like, as the time is getting closer,
we need to be closing doors, like,
closing off to people and focusing on one person.
You guys didn't gravitate towards each other until
it was based off a decision, so it was nothing towards me,
like, thinking your relationship
with Scott is bad or anything like that.
I'm really happy for you two.
I'm happy that you're here.
That's just where I was coming from.
[Sad music]
- When Taylor explained why she voted for Scott and I,
it didn't make sense to me...
because, like, I know that my connection is genuine,
I know that my feelings are genuine.
And I felt it since the first day.
We were just, like, constantly gravitating towards
each other all the time.
When Scott came in here,
we were interested in each other from the jump.
I was already talking to multiple people,
he was talking to multiple people
and at the end of the day,
I wanted him to pick who he felt was most compatible with him.
That's when I asked him and I said, "Who is your number one?
I need to know."
And he told me, me.
He's like, "I'm telling you right now, it's you.
I'm telling you that I want you to pick me."
So I understand... Taylor S: Yeah, I had no idea,
honestly, where you were at.
I haven't even talked to you about
your relationship with Scott.
So, that's where I was coming from.
Johnnie: I'm not in your guys' relationship.
My opinion doesn't mean shit.
I don't have all the information.
Neither does everyone else.
I will say, like, if you guys ever do feel like,
you know, suspicious of Scott or anything like that, tell me.
Your guys' opinions mean something to me.
For her to come up with these things on her own,
it felt misplaced.
You know, maybe just don't speak on anything
you really don't know about.
[Sad music]
[Upbeat music]
Iain: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
It's not long now before the Islanders
all find themselves cast into a mysterious,
terrifying place known only as "the outside world."
Think of the Upside Down, but so much worse.
Hannah: Okay. For our first date in Boca,
where would you take me?
- Definitely would take Giuseppi down to the beach,
walking and have, like, a little kinda lunch there.
And then after that,
probably my favorite restaurant in Boca...
It would be Louis Bossi.
It's an Italian restaurant. It's unbelievable.
- That sounds like a good first date.
- Yeah. What do you want to do in Florida?
- I just wanna see, like, your lifestyle.
Because I feel like you're a big kid.
- What the fuck does that mean?
I am a big kid, though.
- You want to know where I'd take you now?
In the morning we wake up, we go to spin class.
- 9 a.m. - We could take Kobe for a walk.
Maybe, when we're done with spin,
because we'll be sweaty anyway. - Okay.
- So, Kobe is about this little.
I take him everywhere.
[Laughing] I like to dress up Kobe.
He has a little tuxedo for, like, family events.
- What? A dog tuxedo? - It's the cutest thing ever.
Uh-huh.
Kyle: So, would you like to go on a trip?
- You know it. Of course. - Where are we going?
- I am the trip queen.
- You like to travel, I like to travel.
Where are we going? - Bali.
- Bali? Alright, book our flights.
Let's do it. - Already done.
- We're eating some good food.
- Food. - Some cultural food.
I'm a little picky, so, you know,
but you're going to have to make me wanna eat.
- Oh, yeah, that's easy.
- And then an excursion or something.
That'd be cool. - Which...
What's your top excursion?
For me, I gotta skydive. - Fuck it. We're skydiving.
- Skydiving. - We're skydiving.
- Let's get it.
That's a big sky to be diving out of.
- That's a big... That shit, tho...
that shit looks kinda close, but it's not that close at all.
- [Laughing] It ain't close at all.
Me and Kyle, I feel excitement about it.
Like it's easy for us to gravitate towards one another.
Like, he makes me feel like a kid again,
like with our activities.
So, I don't know what me and Kyle are getting to,
but I'm sure we're gonna have fun.
- Let's do it. Lock it in.
[Slurping noise]
You gotta do the sound.
If you don't do the sound... - I did do it!
It's just a little light.
- Right, louder. [Slurping noises]
- [Laughing] I did it.
What are we...?
[Upbeat music]
Scott: Lovebirds.
- How's it going?
Scott: Yeah, I just want to sit down
and have a little conversation with you.
Bergie: Oh, sure.
- Obviously... I know, obviously,
it wasn't an easy decision last night,
but I just wanna come and say my thoughts to you.
I just was very confused, and...
Like, when you were talking... I think a few people said,
like, I didn't expect you to say me and Johnnie.
Taylor and Bergie were the only ones who voted us last night.
I'll be honest, I didn't have a fucking clue
what they were talking about when they said our names.
I genuinely thought they were talking about
Zay and Imani, and then suddenly they just
turned to me and went "Scott and Johnnie."
What I don't really respect and what I don't understand is when
people don't give good reasons as to why they pick you.
Bergie, you were in on the boys' chats and you were
aware of the fact that I'd told her before the recoupling
that I wanted to... that I wanted her to pick me.
- Yeah.
- So, what was
the thought process behind it?
- Hone... It had nothing to do with you.
It was more like how Johnnie was moving around
in the Villa before.
And just like, you know, you showed up.
And then she opened another door with Kassy,
and it just felt like she was wasn't gravitating
towards anybody until she had to make that decision.
- Yeah, yeah.
- We're trying to say is
like she's been in here
a little bit longer than you
and she's had the chance to...
- Close things off with other people.
- ...close things off with other people.
Bergie: And then start pursuing one person.
But she was keeping everything open.
I felt like Zay was going to give 100% to Imani.
Last night and-- - And vice versa.
- And vice versa from Imani.
- Were you aware that he'd said it was
on more of a friend’s vibe?
- They were still so new.
I think if they had more time,
Zay would have given her his 100% into a relation...
Like a relationship.
Obviously, it was a hard decision.
- Yeah. Yeah. Listen,
this was nothing personal.
I'm not coming across...
Yeah, I'm just a very direct person
who just likes to know.
What are you seeing that I'm not seeing?
What were your reasons behind it?
- Gotcha. Scott: Yeah.
Listen. No, no, thank you.
Anyway. Obviously.
Love you both. Just want to-- Bergie: Yeah.
Taylor S: Thanks. Scott: Just want a...
Yeah, just want to sort of understand.
It's all good.
Bergie: Scott took it pretty well.
I think he understood where we were coming from.
I'm the type of guy when I feel something,
I'm going to close all of their doors
and pursue that person.
Johnnie did having four doors open
and not closing a single door
until you have to
just kind of gives the wrong vibe to me.
Alright. That conversation is out of the way.
Taylor: Yeah. It's over. Bergie: Thank goodness.
- It's over. - We don't have to worry
about anything else.
- Yeah. - Hopefully.
Iain: Leonardo's enjoying a popsicle.
And if that popsicle is not enough,
Leonardo's got another one on this side.
Force of habit.
- So...
long distance.
That's going to be a thing. - Mhm.
- Are you okay, though, with that?
- I'm okay with it because I'm doing it for you.
- Same.
- You could live in Fiji
and I could live in New York
and I would still go see you. Just because...
- You'd be flying from where, though?
Leo: Hm.
Right now, I'd be flying from Ohio.
Kassy: Okay. - Because I'm still at school.
But fly to Texas is not a far flight at all.
It's only like an hour or two.
Kassy: From Ohio to Texas? - Mhm.
- Because I wouldn't mind coming to visit Ohio
and also your hometown.
Leo: Yeah. - Which is Connecticut.
- West side of Connecticut.
[Laughing]
Kassy: Connecticut.
- You want to see me in New York?
- Oh, in New York, too.
But that's where your sister lives, right?
Leo: Mhm. Kassy: Yeah.
- And if we got to a point in our relationship
where you'd be comfortable with me living with you?
I have no issue with it.
- Would... You want me to move to you,
or do you move to me?
Where the hell did you put it? - Nowhere.
Kassy: [Laughing] Leo. - It's just too sticky.
- You could have put it in here. He said...
[Laughing] - I said, "Aha."
It's so sticky. I don't like it.
- Yeah, it's sticky.
- I can't even believe that I have Shawty back.
Like, it's been the biggest blessing.
It doesn't get more fairy tale ending
than that to me.
At the end of the day, like,
there's not one thing
I wouldn't do for that girl.
- How do you feel about, like, meeting my family, my mom?
[Laughter] Are you nervy?
- I'm not, like, nervous, nervous.
- Yeah.
Leo: I'm nervous to hear
what she's going to have to say.
But I'm beyond excited to meet the people who you love.
And I'm excited just to show them
how I really feel for you.
* No matter the weather *
* We'll be each other's shelter *
- It means a lot what my mom would say, you know?
And I know that maybe she might have some, you know,
worries, obviously, because of what happened.
- Mhm.
- But at the end of the day,
like, if we're happy,
if we're showing that we're strong
and in a good relationship,
then there's nothing to worry about, you know?
- Mhm. - I never met a person like you.
And so, it's like,
"Yay. Like, now you're in my life forever."
- [Laughing] Forever.
- [At the same time] For life.
[Laughing]
* We're the perfect two *
- I love you.
* Without me it's too hard to keep *
I'm drowning in your besos.
[Laughter]
* And you *
[Uplifting music]
* And I never felt so good *
Iain: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Kenzo's got a strict routine
and part of it is he's very much a morning person.
Me too.
Every day I go to bed at eight,
nine in the morning.
Now that takes discipline and a lot of liquor.
- When we live together some day,
like what are you going to be like as a roommate?
Like, what do you like living with?
- I'm a morning person,
so I'm going to be up at like 5 a.m.
I like to meditate
and then go for, like, a sunrise walk.
Carmen: You're a wild, baby.
But I won't wake up at 5 a.m. Kenzo: What time do you wake up?
Carmen: But I will go on morning walks with you, though.
And I'll be crabby for the first half.
But I'll bring a coffee with me
and I'll wake up and spend it with you.
Okay?
Who would do the laundry?
- I don't mind doing it. Carmen: Really?
That's the one thing I don't like to do.
- The only thing I don't like
is the dishes.
Carmen: I'll do them.
If you do the laundry, I'll do the dishes.
- Deal.
I'll take that for sure.
- You know we're soulmates
when we can agree on chores that easily.
Kenzo: Yeah. You're definitely the one.
- So, what do you think of, like, your family?
Like what they would think of us and stuff like that?
- Honestly, like, I think that my family
would, like, truly adore you.
Like, I know, like, my dad is normally, like, the tough being.
But I genuinely don't even see him
even having a question on you
just based off of like,
how genuine you are as a person
and like how, you know,
you kind of know what you want and you go for what you want.
- Mhm. I think I'm the same way.
I think my family is going to be, like,
super excited to meet you.
- Yeah, I'm kind of nervous though.
- Are you, actually?
- Oh-- Bergie: Honestly?
- Just because, like,
we are so different.
I'm a very, like, out there person.
- Yeah. And I'm a very introverted person.
- Mhm.
- But I think they might like that,
and I think they might think I need that.
Taylor S: Yeah.
- I think my family
and friends are going to be
really accepting of Taylor.
I think she's got all the qualities
that I want in a person.
She's calm, collected.
We just have fun together
and we can have
the silliest conversations together.
So, I hope they've seen all of that.
That is like the last, I think, test we can do in here.
Taylor S: Yeah.
- Is just meeting our parents
and seeing and going from there.
Taylor S: Yeah.
[Uplifting music]
[Upbeat music]
Iain: Leonardo wants to play a game.
- Don't fall on that lava.
Iain: He wants to put that bloody jumper
on properly is what he wants to do.
Ripping your jumper up does not make it a scarf,
young man.
Leo: Alright. This is my game.
We're playing "Floor is lava."
It'll be you and your partner.
You can go any way you want to about this,
as long as you don't touch the floor
or you're burning die.
Alright. Leo and Kassy up first.
Carmen: Three. Two. One. Go!
- I can't go behind you.
Kassy: Yes, you can.
Carmen: Oh, okay.
- The main thing is not to step on the floor
because it's lava.
- Uh! [Laughter]
I'm sorry.
I ate shit immediately.
- I don't want anything to do with you anymore.
Johnnie: Don't leave me!
- Stay away. Stay away from me.
- Yeah. I never spoke to her for the next ten minutes,
I was fuming.
Taylor S: Her, her hair is touching the floor.
- Ouch! - She wouldn't die by hair.
She wouldn't die by... Hannah: True, true, true.
- Damn, Hannah. Get the fuck out.
I was like, "Oh, this is a breeze.
This is the easiest obstacle ever."
- Oh, good job.
[Upbeat music]
- "This is nothing."
* I like it like that *
[Shouting]
No!
[Shout]
Hannah: You were doing so good!
That flamingo. She's tough.
She don't take no shit.
Destiny: Man, no flamingo. [Inaudible]
[Shouting]
It was the Flamingo!
- It's a wrap!
[Shout]
It was so funny to see how the ending
got messed up by a floaty.
[Shouting]
Hannah: Back it up like a dump truck.
- He said, "Face down, ass up."
[Marco shouts] Kassy: Wait, the elbows!
The fucking elbows! - Yeah.
[Laughing]
Talor S: Okay, Bergie.
Bergie: I don't like this. I don't like this.
[Laughter]
I'm out.
- Get him out of here, coach!
- Okay, love, I'm holding the backside.
Oh! Oh, shit.
- Alright, I think our kids are going
to be the one athlete, for sure.
Kassy: They made it!
Leo: We have our winner!
[Cheering and clapping]
- Me and Kenzo killed it, as everyone would expect us to.
[Laughing] I'm just kidding.
But we did kill it.
We crushed that shit.
Kyle: This is bullshit.
Y'all moved the flamingo to set us up for failure.
- Yeah, yeah. They moved the flamingo.
- Fuck this obstacle course. I'm sick!
Carmen: Wait. We need to take a selfie.
Kassy: Selfie, selfie.
Get the flamingo. Kyle: Fuck you.
[Laughing]
- Gang shit, you'll. Gang shit.
[Shouting]
[Clapping]
[Phone chimes] - I got a text!
All: Oh.
- "Islanders, get ready as tonight
you will receive video messages from your friends and families.
#hometruths. #familyties."
[Cheering]
[Upbeat music]
- I'll see my mom and dad.
- I want to see them too.
- That's the best text we've ever gotten in here.
And I'm so happy that I want to cry.
I just want to sob at the thought of, like,
seeing a video from my family and my friends.
- This is wild.
- You're excited? Kassy: Yes. I'm so excited. Yay!
- My mom will probably be disappointed
knowing that I hurt Kassy.
Kassy: I'm so excited.
Leo: I just hope they're still proud of me.
I hope they miss me as much as I miss them.
Carmen: I'm going to cry.
Just thinking about it.
Kassy: I'm going to cry if I see my sisters.
Iain: Get ready for a brand-new high stakes competition
with host Maya Jama.
And your favorite islanders from around the world.
So, couple up and let the games begin.
"Love Island Games"
premieres November 1st, only on Peacock.
Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Tonight, the islanders are getting
messages from the most important people in their lives.
I got a message from the most important person
in my life today.
And Bob, if you're watching,
I will settle my barbell as soon as I get paid.
Promise.
- I know, I'm excited to see everyone's family
because I feel like we talk about our family
so much with each other.
Floral. Kassy: That's beautiful.
- I love it. - I'll take it.
- What if, like the parents say something
about the partner and it's like, not nice?
- It's hard. Like, my mom
is a very understanding person,
and Kassy told me so is hers.
But it's just like. To what extent?
Because, you know.
- No one make fun of me if I ugly cry.
Kassy: Yeah, I just seeing my mom and--
- Seeing my dad. Oh!
- I don't think she ever knew that I was
ever interested in women.
I wonder, like, what she would say about that.
Like me and Johnnie.
"I wish it was her over, Leo, but you know."
[Laughing]
[Inaudible]
- I feel like his, Marco's dad, like,
he's probably super-Italian.
- Hannah, how you done, girl?
Taylor S: Do you have any concerns going into tonight?
- Honestly, like, I know it sounds
like really egotistical, but I really don't.
I think my parents are gonna like you.
My family's going to like you, and I feel like the same...
- I have lipstick on. - Fuck it.
Taste good.
[Laughing] It doesn't taste good.
- It doesn't taste good.
- Don't be nervous.
- Alright, let's go.
- Let's go, Marco.
* Home, sweet home *
- You look so cute.
* Home, sweet home *
- You'll fit on one couch?
- Oh, my God. I'm so nervous.
- This is so cool, guys.
- I'm so excited.
Kassy: Wait, look, look. Let's go in.
- Hey, Carmen, it's Mom.
- Oh!
- I can't wait to see you and talk to you.
I'm so proud of you.
- I can see you're having a great time
and you're doing a great job.
- Oh, Carmy.
- And I'm very proud of what you've been doing
on the show and holding your ground.
- I have to say, I definitely have teared up
every time you talk about mine and your dad's marriage.
And that, that's really something
that you want to look for in your partner.
And that has just been so special
that you look up to us in that respect.
- Oh, man, that's beautiful.
- When I saw Kenzo come on for that first,
I kind of had that feeling.
I'm like, "Oh, this might be somebody
that Carmen's interested in."
I think the way he carried himself was confident,
but, you know, cool and calm and he seems
like a really cool person.
- Yay. Carmen's Dad: Kinda impressed.
[Shouting]
- I just cannot wait till I can give you the biggest hug
and cannot wait to meet Kenzo as well.
- Aw. Carmen's Dad: I can't wait
till you come home,
and stay away from the Hideaway.
[Laughing] Love you.
Destiny: Yes, man! Yes! Leo: "Stay away
from the Hideaway."
[Shouting]
Carmen, you definitely look like your mom.
- Kenzo, it seems like they like you.
Destiny: They like you. - [Shouting] Yes!
[Cheering]
- I know we're going to go back home
and I'm going to get to meet them in person.
And they seem like amazing people.
And so I'm really happy and excited
to get to know them
and, you know, build a relationship with them.
No, no. Yeah. I seriously can't wait to go home
and meet them as well.
You know, they seem like great people.
And even her brother, I want to get...
I wanna get to know him
and be really good friends with him.
So, I'm really excited.
Leo: Hell, yeah. I can see it in his smile right now.
[Laughing]
Johnnie: Love you. Carmen: Love you.
It looks like we're not going to the Hideaway.
- Yeah, it's okay. It's okay.
- Hi, I'm Araldo and I'm Kenzo's brother.
- [In Spanish] I'm so proud of Kenzo.
That he's accomplished a lot
and that he's accomplished what he wanted
because he always wants more.
We're very proud of Kenzo being there.
We watch him every day and love him and miss him a lot.
Kassy: Aww.
- My girlfriend's buzzing to be...
to meet Carmen. She's always asking me
if we're going double dates and all that. So...
The hardest part for us to watch was definitely the...
the recoupling.
When the girls came back from Casa Amor.
I mean, Mom was like, she was crying when...
when Carmen came back alone.
And then it's been...
It's been amazing to sit back and watch every night.
I wished... I wished Dad was here with us,
but he wishes you
nothing but the best.
And then everyone here is watching you,
even back in Vallarta.
But we're excited to see you come back and then...
and celebrate with you and Carmen.
- Enjoy this time
and only you know the love you feel for Carmen.
You are you.
Kenzo, I love you very much.
All: Aw! - [Leo in Spanish] Blessings.
What she's saying it's... It's like very, very true
in the sense of, like, she's beyond proud.
And like, she looks so happy for Carmen.
- Your mom is a baddie. - Yeah.
Hannah: She is gorgeous.
Oh, my goodness. - That was so sweet.
- You're alright? - Mm-hmm.
I'm nervous.
Scott's Mom: Hi, Scott's mom here.
Hope you're okay. I've got your brother and sister.
Jamie and Steph are here.
- Hi, mate. You're alright. - We're waiting for you.
- My dog's here as well. Johnnie: Aww.
Scott's Mom: Uh, Scott, we're so proud of you.
I know you've not been there long,
but you're holding your own.
And you know, we love you to bits.
Steph: Johnnie's a beautiful girl,
and she's very headstrong.
- And you do like a confident woman.
- Yeah. [Laughing]
Jamie: Just go out there and keep doing
what you're doing. Be yourself.
Stand up for yourself. - Yeah.
Hope you get a connection
and it'd be great to work out this time.
- Just have fun with it. Just...
- That's the one. Yeah. - Yeah. Just have fun.
All: Aw. [Clapping]
Destiny: You look just like your dad.
- That's my brother. That's my older brother.
Kassy: That's your older brother?
Scott: Yeah. Yeah. It's my brother,
my sister, and then my mum on the right there.
Destiny: No way. He's...
Are you playing? Scott: Yeah.
That's not my dad.
Destiny: That's not your dad? - No.
- No way. - He'll be watching this,
pissing himself. [Laughing]
Johnnie: He's not going to be happy about hearing that.
Lydia: So, Hi. I'm Johnnie's mom, Lydia.
- And Hi, I'm Felicia. I'm Johnnie's sister.
- So, Nini.
I'm super proud of you.
- You have just held your head up high
and just pushed through.
And so...
Leo will never be a brother-in-law of mine.
Thank goodness. [Laughing]
- I don't like to see you hurt or in pain.
So, all I want to do is just hold you and, you know,
comfort you.
And I can't.
So...
I just want you to know I got you, like, forever.
- Come here, Darby.
- Oh, that's my dog.
[Laughter] - Bye!
We love you. And miss you.
Darby can't wait to see you.
Darby misses you so much.
And I accidentally killed your plants.
[Laughter] Kassy: Aww.
Hannah: That's so cute. [Clapping]
Johnnie, your mom's a G.
Kassy: Loved that.
- I love that.
- It was just really good to see them
and to, like, see that they were,
like, hurting for me. Like, hurts me back.
But I'm so glad that they're happy for me.
And they, you know, see, like, my relationships growing.
- They definitely seemed proud as hell of you, for real.
For real. So, tell her I apologize.
[Laughing]
- I didn't want them to see me sad
and hear and see me
go through what I went through. But...
I'm so happy that they're proud of me.
I miss them so much.
Leo: My mom about to tear me a new asshole, bro.
[Laughing]
Taylor's Mom: Hey, Taylor, it's Mom.
[Shouting]
"Mother dear," as you call me.
I am so proud of you.
I love all of the girls in the Villa.
All of them have their own different personalities.
So, I would love to actually meet all of them.
And I live in wine country,
so we would have a great time together.
[Shouting]
As soon as the season started and I saw Bergie,
before you even came into the Villa,
I knew you were going to pick him.
'Cause I know my daughter and I know what type of guys
she likes. [Laughing]
I saw you go into the Hideaway.
I was like, "OMG!"
[Laughing] But it was so cute.
And he was so cute and just so...
just so polite.
So respectful.
You guys look like you guys have fun.
Taylor, we are so proud of you and I love you
and can't wait to meet Bergie.
Hannah: Yay. - I can't wait too.
- That's awesome. - I can't wait to meet your mom.
- Told you she was rooting for you.
[Laughing]
- Taylor, she's cool.
- I haven't even met her mom,
but I already love her. [Laughing]
Huge relief knowing Taylor's mom really liked me.
I would love to meet Renee.
I am so down.
It's going to be a great time in wine country.
Taylor S: Oh, no. Bergie: Oh, no.
- Hi, Bergie. It's Dad.
I hope you're doing well today.
We do miss you back here in Cottage Grove.
And Taylor and you
have started a relationship, and that's great.
And I think you can experience many things with Taylor.
[Laughing] Seeing you in the Hideaway
were some definitely cringe-worthy moments.
[Laughing] I don't think...
anybody out there...
as far as a parent wants to see anything like that.
We definitely understand that those things happen.
But, uh... you can have
the rest of your Hideaways to your own.
[Laughing]
- Hi, Bergie. It's Grandma Sandy.
Hannah: Aww.
- Hi, Bergie. It's Grandpa Bergie.
[Laughing]
Hannah: Oh, they're adorable.
- Bergie, you're just doing things
I never thought you would do.
And the one thing is using foul language.
[Laughing] I've never heard a swear word
until we watched you on TV.
[Laughing]
- It's such a grandpa.
- And kissing girls.
[Laughing]
You're our grandson.
[Laughing]
Bergie's Grandma: Carsten, I think Taylor has been
very good for you.
- Aww. - She's giving you reassurance
in different areas,
trying to teach you the skills of being with a woman.
I like her a lot.
Grandpa Bergie: Taylor is a beautiful woman.
But...
I have some reservations
because I haven't seen
spontaneous chemistry
between the two of you.
It looks more or less forced to me.
[Tense music]
- Big hugs.
All: Aw.
Marco: Bergie! Leo: Bergie!
- How does that make you feel?
- I feel great.
Grandpa's a savage.
You know, this whole journey hasn't been easy,
and it just doesn't get any easier.
Saying it seems forced.
It definitely sucked.
Yeah. It wasn't a good feeling.
- Grandpa ain't sugarcoating nothing for nobody.
* To grow in you *
[Uplifting music]
Destiny: Ooh, I'm so excited.
Hannah: I can't wait to see your family.
Iain: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
It's messages from home time.
A chance to give support, offer kind words,
or if you're Grandpa Bergie,
take a massive dump on the relationship.
Good old Grandpa Bergie.
And next up, it's Destiny and Kyle.
Destiny's Dad: Hi, Destiny. [Shouting]
Mom and Dad.
- How are you doing? We miss you.
Destiny, we've been watching,
and it has been a roller coaster ride.
Destiny's Dad: You know how protective I am of you.
So, hopefully you've learned a lot from me
and my martial arts training to handle yourself.
[Laughing] So, watch out, guys.
She's dangerous.
Destiny: Definitely. Hannah: Aww.
Destiny's Dad: The hardest moment for me
since I've been watching the show
was when you had a trip to the Hideaway.
And I must say, I'm so proud of you, daughter.
Like... [Laughing]
To watch you and to see you, and just...
I was like, "Yes, thank you.
Thank you." I didn't want to see any covers moving, any...
None of that stuff. Good job, daughter.
- Good job, daughter.
- I see that you're coupled with Kyle.
He's a lot like me.
Quiet. Sits back.
Watches the scene. So...
Um...
Give him a shot. Way to go, Kyle.
You got a winner. Leo: Hell, yeah!
- What's important is that you know that we are here
cheering for you and rooting you on
and we're just so proud of you.
So proud of you.
- I love you!
Destiny's dad: And to all of you, Love Islanders,
love is there.
All: Aw.
[Clapping] Carmen: So cute.
[Cheering] Johnnie: Aw, So cute!
- I loved them.
Destiny: I just feel so happy.
And knowing that they're proud of me it's...
I mean, that's all the solidification I need.
And then they approve of Kyle?
I knew it was him.
[Shouting] [Laughter]
Leo: Let's go!
- Everyone wants to be like pop...
papa over there, you know?
Papa Destiny. So, you know, if I remind him of him himself,
that makes me feel like I'm doing something right.
Destiny: I'll let it slide.
Kyle's Mom: Hi, Kyle. It's your mother.
You're doing great on this show,
and I love watching you.
I miss you so much.
- Hey, Kyle, it's Keelie,
your god-sister.
I'm just as excited.
You're doing amazing.
And to watch you flourish,
to see you when you were little Kyle.
And to now see you as a man finding your way,
that's been... It's been a journey to watch.
And I'm proud of you as well.
So, I'm so rooting for you. Leo: Aw.
- I'm not a big fan of destiny anymore.
Um... She was great in the beginning of the show,
but for Kyle, no.
[Tense music]
- Hmm. Kyle's Mom: She has
too much drama.
That's just too much for my Kyle.
[Marco chuckles] Hannah: [Whispering] Shut up.
Kyle's Mom: I'm good with everything so far.
I just don't want you to go in that room.
- The Hideaway.
[Laughing] - I won't.
Kyle's Mom: Be respectful.
- Yeah. Do you, Kyle.
- No, no, no. Don't do you.
[Laughing]
[Clapping]
- Huh... Leo: How are you feeling, Kyle?
Kyle: Bittersweet. Obviously,
you know, they said what they said about you,
but...
Obviously, they don't know you. So, you know?
That's a conversation we'll have to have with them. So...
- I didn't take it personally. It's whatever they saw.
You know?
I, my loved ones, my family
know exactly who I am.
And none of them would ever say
Destiny is mess or drama.
That's just not me.
But what I will say is that...
once I meet them...
I do feel fine.
- Mom seemed funny as hell, though.
- My mom is a nut. - She's protective of you.
- No, I know. - They love you so much.
- She's just protective over you.
- No, I know. Oh, God.
I'm just happy to see them. - As they should be, though.
You know?
- Hannah.
- Oh, mommy!
- Remember what we talked about?
That the joy is in the journey?
Well, let me tell you something.
you are enjoying your journey.
I can tell.
I am so proud of you.
- Mommy.
- What we do have to say is Marco better have
his karaoke song ready.
Hannah's Dad: That's right. - For our family karaoke nights,
because we're... we're so excited to meet him.
Like, so excited.
- Yay.
- I think Marco is such a nice young man
and you could tell he comes from such a nice family.
Hannah's Dad: We love you very much, baby.
I'll be glad when I can hold you
and kiss you on that forehead.
[Laughter]
- Aw. [Clapping]
Leo: That's so good. Kassy: They approve!
Leo: Marcocito, how are you feeling?
Marco: Oh, man, I feel amazing.
I think I can bond with her dad a lot.
Hannah: And they approved. - They approved.
All: Yay!
- Oh, God, here we go.
- Hey, Marco.
- Oh. That's my dad.
- I just want to say how proud we all are of you
and really happy that you and Hannah have found each other
and how she's been able to get you to open up.
And just seeing a completely different side to you.
- I love how outgoing she is and she's just easy to love.
- Looking forward to seeing you,
and of course, meeting Hannah.
- Oh.
- Anything that was hard for you to watch
in regards to Marco? Like...
Marco's Grandma: Uh, yes, the bedroom scenes.
I mean, it's supposed to be almost a sleepover,
in essence, you know?
But I don't think it looks like
a sleepover in many instances. [Laughing]
And you can hear some of the language
and some of the movement
through that scene.
And it's almost porno.
[Laughing] - Oh, God.
- Oh.
Oh, my goodness. Leo: How are you feeling, dog?
- That's awesome, that's my grandmother.
She's the leader of our family. She keeps us together.
And to hear my dad really approve of Hannah
and just so excited to see her, that was truly amazing.
What do you think? - Oh.
Oh, my God, I love them. I feel like me and Grandma
are going to hang out all the time.
I really liked Grandma and like,
she's so cute and Marco's dad is like
such a big person in his life.
So, to hear his dad, like, talk so highly of me,
I was like: "Oh, my God, that's amazing."
Just the fact that like,
they see me helping him, that's great
because they care for him, they love him.
I think that's what a relationship is.
You're helping each other grow and be better people.
And he definitely has helped me grow, too,
and become a better person.
- Grandma, love her.
Kassy; Oh, fuck.
I wasn't nervous, now I'm nervous
because we were the last one.
- Hi, I'm Gina and I'm Leo's mom.
Hannah: Oh, Leo. Marco: Oh, there's Leo Sr.
- I'm very proud of you.
I think you're doing great.
It was very hard for me to watch the situation
with you and Johnnie,
but we move forward.
I really like Kassy, but watching Casa Amor
open up my eyes as well,
because I would say the, the movie night,
I was expecting to see a little bit more
of how her reaction was when she went into Casa Amor,
uhm, because she reacted
totally different than I thought she would,
which is okay, she's also exploring
and you were not closed off. So, I understand that.
But I think you guys have a connection.
You just have to...
stay together and do it 100% and think it will work out.
- My sister looked like that.
- That's your twin? - Yeah.
Marco: You guys look identical.
- If you come back with Kassy,
we're going to have to teach you some Spanish, right?
[In Spanish] We have to teach her to dance Bachata,
you know, like us Dominicans.
- [In Spanish] That's it!
- I miss you. I'm looking forward
to continuing to watch you,
but I'm excited to give you a hug.
I miss you, Leo.
- Oh, I miss you, too.
- Hi, I'm Georgina, I'm Leo's sister.
Leo, I miss you so much and I'm so proud
watching you every single day on television.
It's been very hard to see you make mistakes,
but I can obviously see that you're growing
and learning from them, especially you're trying
to go and show Kassy how you truly feel.
And I know that it hurts what you did,
but I'm glad to see that instead of sitting in it,
you're growing from it.
Leo: Oh. All: Yay.
Hannah: Oh, that's great, Leo.
- Like, I'm very happy to see them,
but I also don't want my time here to end with you guys.
Hannah: I love it.
Kassy: I was nervous, I'm not going to lie.
I didn't know what they were going to say
because obviously me and Leo have gone through...
Leo: A lot... - ...a bunch of shit.
And yeah, it's true, like, he's gone through so much,
but like, I also see a change in him too.
And I saw grow with him, like,
I'm just excited to meet them, honestly. Yay!
- Come on, Cassandra.
- Hi, Kassy. It's your bestie. - That's my best friend.
- I'm so excited to watch you on your journey.
I'm so happy you're finding love.
- Hey, it's Kiara, your sister. I miss you a lot
and love watching you on the show.
I think you and Johnnie are really cute
as soon as I saw y'all on my screen,
you have so much chemistry.
- I'm proud 100% you did what you wanted to do.
How many people can say: "Hey, you know what?
I'm waking up today and I'm telling people,
uh, I'm going to couple up with a girl instead of a guy."
I mean, it did shocked me.
I have to be honest, it did.
To the point that I was thinking:
"Oh, my God, you know, here she is,
following her heart, and that made me proud.
That made me very proud."
[Laughter]
- Yeah. I'm really happy about you and Leo,
and I really hope that this time it all goes well.
And if it doesn't, I'll have a talk with him about it.
If you want to be with him, I supported all the way,
and I'll be excited to meet him.
- I didn't know that you were going to tell
Leo so many things. I only felt bad for him.
I did. Then, on the other hand, I also thought,
gosh, if only guys
really would think about
how much they can hurt a woman
doing that...
life can be different. And I think...
I think, you know, you're there to make the difference.
It's day by day.
And I am proud of you.
Seeing you crying was very painful because...
we were always there for each other
and not being able to hold you and to call you
and to tell you how much I love you.
But we want you back.
We just can't do it without you anymore.
We miss you so much, Cassandra.
All: Ow! Leo: That was awesome, guys.
That was awesome, guys. - My mom is...
means everything to me. You guys know that.
So, I'm happy that you guys got
to see the person that I look up
to every day. So... - Yeah.
- Oh, it's great to know that my mom is giving me
her blessing with me and Leo
and knowing that she's just supporting me
and supporting whatever direction
my heart is taking me, that's all I want from her.
It was nice to see that his family also seeing
a growth in Leo and he's changing
for the better and that they also see
we love each other,
so, it's a good feeling to know
that they're supporting us as well.
But they don't fully hate you, so, that's good.
[Laughter]
- A win... a win is a win.
- A win is a win.
- That's a fact.
* Everybody's talking about you *
* Everybody's talking about the way *
* You made me seem all right *
Iain: Welcome back to "Love Island USA."
Oh.
Kyle: Get over here.
- Well, it's only so much I can do.
With the dress.
- I mean, obviously, I'm happy to have seen my mom
and my, God-sister...
- How are you? Mike: And like, you know,
I mean, obviously could have been nicer.
- Um.
Yeah.
- I don't know. It's kind of tough.
- I'm okay. I'm still okay, like,
I'm mean, you know, no one can take that away from me.
- They haven't been here with us.
- Yeah, exactly. They don't know what it's like being in here.
At the end of the day,
I've never had a parent, not like me.
So, seeing that, it's more hard
for me seeing how it affected you.
- Yeah. - I guess at the end of the day,
the real talk that needs to happen is,
do you feel like I'm drama?
- I mean, I wouldn't have coupled up
with you if I thought you were that much drama.
Like, no. - Right? For me, I'm good,
like I said, I know where I am, I know
once I meet your family,
it'll be completely different,
it'll be a whole another revelation.
- Yeah. - Just like you had.
Kyle: I don't think it's a deal breaker.
I just would have to have
a conversation with my mom, obviously.
Obviously, we know Destiny can be spicy.
She got a little spicy to her. It's not, you know,
it's not a secret, but, you know,
I don't have any complaints. I have no regrets.
So, I'm just going to keep on moving with her.
And I'm sure my mom will, you know,
like Destiny when they meet in person.
- But I do hope you okay. - I am okay.
I'm glad we had this conversation.
- I'm actually proud this happened.
I just feel like this brought us closer.
It's so weird now, knowing that my parents
is watching this, I'm moaning!
- Fuck it. They didn't saw what they saw.
[Laughter]
Iain: Bergie and Taylor are unpacking the messages
from home while doing a truly magnificent job
of putting off talking about good old Grandpa's Bergie.
Bergie: I really did like your mom.
She seemed super sweet,
and I would love to get to know her.
- Yeah, I knew she would adore you.
And, like, my mom's just always going to be supportive,
no matter, like, what my decision is.
And obviously, she sees, you know,
that you are a genuine guy. And like... like she said.
Your dad seems like a really genuine guy,
obviously, like,
your parents seem, you know, just very protective of you.
And you know,
also they've seen your journey from...
- From start. - ...from the start to now.
- Yeah.
- And how does that make you feel?
- Obviously, like, there's been things in here
that I haven't liked that have gone down for sure.
Like, every time something really bad has happened,
I'm thinking of my family, too. I'm like, Gosh,
they're seeing this happen right now.
So, it's just hard knowing that, you know,
they probably had the same emotions that I had.
- Like, living through that. - Yeah.
- It sucks because, like, you know,
I think that affected how they reacted to you.
You know, like, their walls are up.
They don't want me to get hurt.
And it's just like, because I've been hurt,
they've seen me hurt so many times.
- No, I know. I can see
that they're protective. Just based off of, like,
your start in here. Bergie: Yeah.
- You know what I mean?
* I can't control [Inaudible] *
I can genuinely say from the moment I walked
in this Villa, Bergie has been my number one.
Although, we are very different people.
So, I just all I want to be is accepted.
Because I do want people to see
that I genuinely do feel a connection.
And it's hard to see that, you know,
his family has doubts on our connection.
I shouldn't care what, like,
other people think. - Yeah.
- But it did bother me of, like...
you know, your grandpa saying, like,
he doesn't see the spontaneous...
- Chemistry. - ...chemistry in us,
it seems forced. Bergie: Yeah.
- So, I don't... Bergie: Yeah, that definitely
hurt me, too.
- What are you thinking?
- It really sucked seeing my family, like,
just hurt a little bit.
I don't think what Taylor and I have is being forced,
but my family's very important to me.
So, when my grandpa said that,
I didn't really know how to respond.
This whole fucking situation...
I don't fucking like it.
I don't really want to do this.
Ah, done. I'm just done.
Iain: Tomorrow night.
Your votes decide our "Love Island USA" finalists.
Sarah: The two couples with the fewest votes
will be dumped from the island tonight.
