[Damian] Will you marry me?
[gasps]
[sighs nervously]
I wanted to tell you something.
One thing that I don't believe in is...
roles.
Or labels.
I do whatever I want.
And what I want you to do is I want you to stand up.
[Damian] I'm standing.
[Giannina] So...
throughout this whole thing,
I have been trying to find my soulmate.
I see you as my equal.
And I'm just as strong as you.
So I want to ask you,
Damian Powers,
will you marry me?
[sobs]
I will marry you.
I'll marry you, too!
-[Damian] I accept. -I accept, too.
-Oh, fuck. -[Giannina laughing]
I love you.
[sniffles] I love you, too.
[Damian sighs]
-[Giannina laughing] -I never expected that.
You scared the shit out of me.
I wanted to surprise you.
[Damian] You surprised me.
I cannot wait to hold you.
I'm going to break this thing down in like two seconds.
So, I'm engaged to a man that I've never seen before and that is so me.
[laughs]
That's something that I would do.
I can't wait to see you, Damian.
[Damian] You're amazing.
And I look forward...
to spending the rest of my life with you.
[Giannina] Me, too.
-I love you. -[Giannina] I love you, too.

Today, I feel strongly towards two people,
but I, you know...
Like, I try to avoid that conflict as well, I guess.
I really want to be married,
but I'm so scared of making the wrong decision. So...
So, um..
my indecisiveness is killing me right now.
I know I'm confused in the head. I don't know what's going on right now.
You told Jessica, "I can see you being my wife" and all this stuff.
You said that.
But you weren't honest to everyone else on how you felt about that.
Not just me. I'm talking about the other two girls.
[Barnett] Yeah, you're right.
[Mark] Communicate. It sucks.
The conversations fucking blow.
It is fucking awful to be...
The conversation with Jessica I had yesterday
was the toughest I've had, ever in my life.
Jessica was conflicted on what was going on.
She was going back and forth.
And now she's telling me she's committed to me
and I don't want to be like Barnett:
wishy-washy, uncertain.
Because I know what I want. And that's Jessica.
Accept the conflict. Accept it's going to happen,
-and fucking go for it. -Yeah.

I can honestly say I found the woman

All I hope is that there's no doubt in her mind
that I'm the man she wants to be with.
-Hello? -[Jessica] Hey, babe.
Oh, God, hearing your voice...
It's literally the best thing... Oh, man.
The first time I heard your voice, I just knew.
And there's no words that can ever, ever, ever...
That I could even describe to the feeling that you give me
and I promised each and every day that I will love you...
even when times are tough.
I promise you to be that rock.
I've never been so certain about something in my life,
and it's so hard for me to let people in.
And for you, I let you in and I love every second of it.
Jessica, you have my heart and there's nobody in this world
that I would rather spend the rest of my life with.
I want you to picture

I want to ask you...
Will you marry me?

Hello?
Yes.
Of course.
Of course I will.
I want to kiss you, I want to hug you.
-[Jessica] Oh, my God. -Oh, God.
I love you. I feel like I came into this...
Like, I honestly felt like
God put me here.
I don't know why.
I was like, "This is so weird, what am I doing?"
But I just want like forever with you. I don't want this to ever end.
I'm so happy right now.
-I love you. -[Jessica] I love you, too.
[Mark] My heart's beating out of my chest.
Oh, God. Like, I love you. And I mean that.
-I love you. -[Mark] I love you.
I just got engaged.
I did.
It's been 20 years of pushing off commitment,
but it was easy to commit to Mark today.
Love is so blind. I'm marrying a 24 year old.
[laughs]
Oh, my God.
I tried to push him away,
because that's what I do, and he wouldn't let me.
And now he is my fiancé.
I'm so excited.
[Mark] I'm happy. We're good!
I'm excited. Let's do it, like...
-[Jessica] I'm excited, too! -Whoo!
[Mark] A lot of people try to say
you should wait until you're 28, 29, 30.
I'm like, but when you find that person, why wait?
But next time, babe, Jessica, answer and then cry,
'cause I about had a heart attack at age 24, so...
My God, I'm...
I wish you could see me right now.
I want you to enjoy the rest of this day
and we got the rest of our lives.

[Amber] Being in love with Barnett is a roller-coaster...
The way he's been interacting with other girls...
seems so indecisive.
[sighs] I'm not the only one in this,
so I don't know, you know,
what's in Barnett's mind.
And if it's just feels like such...
high stakes right now.
Even though I feel like I know who he's wanting to be with,
and it's me,
I don't know that for sure.
I don't even put myself around Amber at this point.
I just think it's an exhausting thing to be around.
Honestly, I don't see Barnett with anyone else.
If he does end up with her, then I was clearly way off. [scoffs]
Like, way off,
about the kind of person he is and wants in a wife.
I mean I'm probably, like, one of the luckiest guys
in the world right now.
Like, I have two freaking amazing people
that are so interested in me.
But how can two people be so sure
and I'm over here, like... I have no freaking clue.
I have a huge fear of having this initial spark with someone
and it just fizzling out.
And the intensity of Amber...
like, I'm scared that it's not going to last.
LC...
I know she'll love me and I know...
it may not be as intense as Amber,
but it could be for a long time and it won't burn out.
Honestly, I thought about not proposing to either one.
I don't want to hurt someone and I know it's going to happen. [crying]
And I'm feeling the fucking pain right now.
It's the...
For sure, the toughest decision I've ever had to make.
[dramatic music plays]
So...
I know I've put you through...
probably one of the hardest experiences of your life.
This has, uh...
been...
It's been the toughest...
thing I've ever had to do.
I've thought...
everyday and I've...
I've tried to think, you know, what my future holds
and, you know, what's the right decision for me.
You know, I have to follow my heart.
It's, it's...
It's not you, LC.
-I literally can't even cry anymore. -[Barnett] I know.
[LC] Like, you just don't have any regard for what you're doing to people.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have done this to me.
I would have never...
never...
let you get to this point
if it were me instead of you in that position.
This is my real life and my real feelings, and...
[Barnett] I know.
[LC] You're not really the person I thought you were, honestly.
Have a great life. I'm walking out the door.

She has touched me without touching me.

for the first time in my life, I think somebody's finally...
seen me without seeing me.

[Giannina] I want to just stare at him.
I just want to process him,
see if he matched what I thought in my head.
I have no idea what I'm going to do when I see Damian.
I don't know if I'm going to laugh, or if I'm going to cry,
or if I'm gonna pass out, or if I'm gonna throw up,
I have no idea.

I love it. I can stare at him forever.
But my old habits would have been like "Wait.
Now I'm doubting myself."
'Cause I self-sabotage.
And I didn't do that with Damian.
I am...
so happy.
I can finally let that wall down.

Today, I get to meet my fiancée.

Roller coaster.
Let's hit that drop, come on.
I'm nervous as hell.
What if she doesn't like me? I don't know.
[Amber] I haven't, throughout this entire process,
been able to picture his face.
I haven't been able to fabricate anything that I feel like
is close enough to who he is.
I'm really hoping for a nice smile and pretty eyes,

I would love for this to work out for Cameron and I
because he's everything I've ever wanted in a husband and a father...
to my future children.
I've never felt like this with any man
and I think that we would have a wonderful life together.
What more do we need?
-[chuckling] -I know. [laughs]
-It's hard not to be a creep. -I know.
-It's really hard. -It's hard, I'm trying.
-'Cause now, it's like, finally... -Right.
I mean, it's just, you know...
It's just two people in love. That's what happens.
Yeah.
Yeah, of course I'm excited to be spending the night with Lauren.
You know, we've been talking through walls, and...
we really haven't had that, that time to,
you know, be alone with each other.
We're definitely sizing each other up.
Yeah, I like what I see, to put it very lightly.
This vacation's going to be one to remember.
-Can I use your toothpaste? -[Lauren] No.
Of course!
What's mine is yours.
Now we share.
You know, your chest hair is not that bad.
-No? -I thought it was going to be worse.
You thought it was gonna be worse? What were you expecting?
I just thought I was going to be like...
super, like...
I don't know, like...
bush. [laughs]
[both laughing]
I've never dated anyone that was white.
This is going to be, like, a new experience for me.
And my thoughts are that he looks good.
Cameron is very sexy. He's very attractive.
He has a little swag, so...
I definitely want to jump his bones.
Why is my mind in the gutter?
It's been way too long, y'all. Good lord!
I'm sorry, Mom and Dad. I'm sorry.
I'm an adult. I'm an adult.
[laughs]
Whee!
[laughs]
Mm.
[kisses]
[Lauren] And good night.
[both laughing]
[Diamond] This is so beautiful.
-[champagne bottle pops open] -[Diamond] Whoo!
-Oh, shoot. -[champagne spilling]
[Diamond] Here you go.
Yay.
I am super excited to be with my fiancé on this romantic getaway,
And I'm so excited to make a beautiful life together.
[Carlton] Mm. Could you imagine being the strawberry dipper?
[both chuckling]
The things you say.
I just tend to say what comes to mind first.
That's beautiful. I like that about you.
Hello, Mexican police?
[laughs]
-Come get this lady. -Come get you!
-She's crazy. -Bye-bye.
They wouldn't touch me.
I had to pick the craziest person in the house.
You thought I was... I'm not crazy.
Yeah, you're crazy. I knew that from day one.
-Why? Because I spoke my mind? -Mm-hmm.
-That's normal, ain't it? -Mm-mm.
You better be happy you pretty.
-I get away with stuff because I'm pretty? -Mm-hmm.
Okay.
I would have been punched it a long time ago.
-"Punched it"? -Punched it. Like, "leave."
Okay. Hmm.
Watch your words here. [chuckles]
Come on. Chill out.
Carlton is definitely a different energy than what we had in the pod.
I don't know if he's nervous or if he's uncomfortable with something.
You make daddy feel good.
That's why you have that hat on.
You're not slick. Ooh!
You're not slick.
-You want one that says "Mommy"? -[chuckles]
When I am a mother, I would love to have one.
I'm gonna get you one that says,
"Do not fucking touch."
No, I would not wear that.
Well...
What about one that says, "Carlton's wife"?
Okay, I'll do that.
-You would? -[Diamond] I would do that one,
If I'm your wife.
"If"?
[Diamond] I'm saying, we still gotta walk down that aisle.
Oh, we're walking down that aisle.
-Okay. -Ain't no turning back
-Ooh. -What you gotta figure out?
[Diamond] We gotta move in together. What do you mean?
[chuckles]
I have a big secret to tell Diamond about my sexuality
and I'm so nervous.
Every moment that I spend with her, it's in the back of my head.
If I don't roll it out the right way,
it could just turn into a catastrophe where she just can't deal with it.
I'm gonna get you a pogo stick
so you can hop out of your feelings right now.
[laughs]
You know what? You trying to start something.
Whatever.
All right, so I'm just gonna go to the pool.
No, there is no pool. [laughs]
I think this conversation's gonna get... It's over.
Before it gets too deep.
[Jessica] This is our first night together.
[Mark sighs] I'm excited. What number is it?
[Jessica] And I'm the happiest girl in the world. This is us right here.
Ah!
-Yay. -[Mark] You ready?
[Jessica] This is the first night outside of the pod
and it's freaking me out that I'm engaged right now.
Did I really just do this?
My parents don't know what's going on right now.
I don't have my phone so no one knows where I am.
No one knows I'm in Mexico.
It's... [laughs]
It's crazy and it's tripping me out.
I love hearing the waves crashing on the beach.
That's my favorite thing in the whole world.
-[Mark] I'm thankful. -[Jessica] Me too.
[Mark] I love you.
I've always been a very sexual and romantic and passionate person,
but I have always been missing that emotional connection.
I believe that now that I've finally developed
that emotional connection before that,
I think that Jessica and I can really turn it into--
It's going to feel as though I'm a virgin.
Experiencing something for the first time with brand new eyes
in a first experience and I'm excited for it.
Ah! This shirt.
-Love it, love it, love it. -I'm gonna go shirtless.
-You're going shirtless? -[Mark] Yep, going shirtless.
[Jessica] The person I fell in love with was a voice.
And now here he is in the flesh.
This is him,
and I'm struggling a little bit, so far, in just...
meshing the two people.
[Mark] We're about to get extra friendly here.
[Jessica] All right.
I would say he's not the typical...
guy that I would go for.
My normal type is...
usually a bigger guy.
Um...
Just a bigger guy.
So...
in this experience,
like, I really feel like people can kinda jump in very quickly,
get into a sexual relationship and then things don't go well...
and it can be very, very painful.
So my preference is that we don't go there.
[dramatic instrumentals]
My whole thing is I would never force you to do anything you don't want to do.
It's me and you.
We started this whole thing just, again, talking.
I want to get to know you more. I want you to be you.
I don't want this to be something that it's not.
The whole reason we're here is because we took a leap of faith.
-And because of that leap of faith... -Agreed.
I think, you know...
Whatever I think we both agree on, yeah, we make it work.
[Jessica] I'm not ready to just, you know...
jump on him or anything like that, but I'm kind of excited
because I think part of this whole experiment is
we've got an emotional bond, it's not someone I would typically go for
based on looks, so let's see if we can build off that
and see if that attraction can really grow
and that we can be as deeply seeded together physically as we are emotionally.
[imitates wolf call]
Hey.
Oh.
[inhales through teeth]
I don't know. You might have drank all my champagne.
It's okay.
Just bring the bottle.
Perfect. Yes.
[Amber] This is our first night alone together
and there is a little bit of awkwardness because you know this person
but physically, their body, their appearance...
Seeing them is totally new to you.
But, that connection, that fire is just as strong-
as it ever was through a wall.
My fiancé is fine.
Oh!
I'm gonna have such pretty babies, y'all. [laughs]
You're just going to drink out of the bottle?
-It's what I do. -[laughs]
Like a champ.
-That's my fiancé. -Yep.
[Barnett] I definitely feel like Amber's the right girl for me.
And I feel like our physical relationship is increasing...
our emotional connection.
So, if things happen, they happen,
and I'm not expecting anything, but we'll see.
-Pretty ring, who got it for you? -I don't know, some guy.
Some weirdo proposed to me through a wall. I guess I said yes.
[Barnett] Man, I'm wearing an engagement ring, too,
-and it's a man version. -Oh!
[Barnett] If it gets warm, I'm sorry.
Don't you dare! [laughs]
You're nasty! [laughs]
I know you.
I can tell when something's upsetting you and I'm like,
is everything okay?
It's just that feeling, that energy, I have with you.
I've never seen this side of Carlton and it really hurts me.
I'm so confused, I don't understand,
it's just so many feelings are running through me
that I don't even know where to start.
You okay?
-What's on your mind? -A lot. [nervous chuckle]
With you, I feel like...
I can be myself completely
and I feel like you know when something is off.
Like, you can sense it.
Like, I really love you, but it's like certain things
are, like, always in the back of my head.
Certain things like what?
[sighs]
Like the past.
I feel like there was no possible way you could...
Like, a woman like you...
as perfect as you are, as beautiful as you are...
Aww...
Hey.
What's wrong?
It's just stuff that we have to just discuss because...
[sniffs] I feel like...
I've always been in situations where people have abandoned me
and have, like, rejected me.
[exhales deeply]
First off, you don't have nothing to worry about.
-Yeah, I do. -No, you don't.
I do. I have a lot to worry about.
-You have no idea. You have no idea. -In regards of me.
You could leave me at any moment,
because...
I haven't fully opened up.
What...
What is it that you want to open up to me about?
I don't feel like you're going to want me after this information.
What information?
In the past...
I have dated both genders.
[dramatic instrumentals]
[heartbeat thumping]
What do you mean? Like male and female?
Male and female, yeah.
[heartbeat thumping]
[Carlton] It's a lot to accept. I get it. It's okay.
Like, I have my fears. I have...
I have gone through the thought of...
Fuck, you met the love of your fucking life and now...
My question is, how do you know I'm the love of your life?
Do you ever feel like you need to go date...
-No. No. -...another man?
No.
That is the biggest misconception in the world.
The biggest misconception in the world for men like me, who are honest,
I love...
people for who they are...
at the core.
This has nothing to do with it.
Like, that has never been the motivating force in my life.
It's a lot to accept.
Yeah.
Like, I'm looking at you right now and--
-I'm listening. -I feel like your eyes are so blank.
-It's a lot to take in. -I know. I know.
[sighs] Fuck!

[Diamond] We were literally four weeks away from our wedding.
Like, I love Carlton, but I was not prepared for that.
[Carlton] I...
may leave this earth alone,
but I will leave this earth saying I was fucking honest.
[crying] I didn't fucking deceive nobody
and I did one of the hardest fucking things that was ever done.
I'm not a hider. What am I hiding for?
Why can I not be myself?
You can be yourself.
I just... I just need time...
to think about this.
It's... I mean, you just threw a curveball.
I know.
[Diamond] I'm going to...
-Go, just go. -See you later.
