01x12 - Game, Set, Perfect Match

[bunniefuu]

[ominous music playing]

[Bartise] You're concerned how you look.

-It's how you are.
-[Abbey] Not.

It is. That's how you came in
from the other show.

"I look a certain way."

"My mom's mad at me.
My sister may have this opinion of me,"

and now you're here. Trust me...

You're using my words against me.

I'm gonna be looking like a f*cking d*ck.

-Yeah, you are.
-I don't give a f*ck how I look.

The things that I told you in confidence,
you're gonna weaponize.

Yikes.

You're not who I thought you were.

[sting]

That sucks.

So match with Izzy. Have a great time.

I'm gonna go.

[Izzy] I don't wanna split this up,
at all.

I'll just go. You're good.

[dramatic music playing]

[Abbey] Okay.

I did not mean to do that.

What was the situation?

[Bartise] She's upset
that I was vibing with you.

She just didn't like that our conversation
wavered my mindset on me and Abbey.

[Izzy] Yeah, which is fair enough.

Abbey's completely annoyed at Bartise,
and I think it was an overreaction.

I've been in exactly the same situation
as her, and I didn't react like that.

I get that emotions are high right now,

but at the end of the day,
we're all in here for ourselves.

Bro, I'm outie 5,000.

-What the f*ck?
-Bartise is a shithead.

-[Abbey] Oh my God.
-[LC] But have you talked to him?

-Oh my God, he's such an as*h*le.
-[Chloe] What just happened?

Ugh!

-[Chloe] Who is he matching with?
-Izzy, I guess.

-They've been together and it didn't work.
-Yeah.

I don't know.

Whatever. I don't wanna cry about this.

-sh*t makes me mad.
-Oh my God.

It's f*cked up. We were
laying next to each other for a moment,

and I was like, "I care about
what my mom and sister think."

"I don't wanna have sex on camera."

-He's like, "You care how things look."
-How could you not?

[Abbey] You're weaponizing the sh*t
I told you in confidence, and now I'm out.

Oh my God, I'm gobsmacked.

I think he may actually be an as*h*le,
and we just didn't realize.

Who are you?

I think it's a massive personality change.

The way that Bartise
goes about our conversation,

honestly, kind of gaslighting,
changing the conversation,

acting like I'm angry about him talking
to other girls, which I'm not at all.

It's about the change of narrative for me.

I definitely feel blindsided.

If he had said that earlier,

I would've gone into this night
with a different mindset.

Don't let this ruin your self-esteem.

-[Abbey] He's not worth it.
-[Chloe] No.

What a prick.

-Bye.
-[Chloe] Love you, Abbey.

-[Abbey] Bye, y'all are beautiful.
-Bye, Abbey.

[Bartise] Why'd you come in here,
sneaking your way in?

I feel so bad.

[Bartise] I feel so bad too.

["Sweet Revenge" by Kat Leon
& Jo Blankenburg playing]

♪ Here's where it all ends ♪

It's me and you right now. Picking you.

Really?

-[Bartise] You wanna match with me?
-Of course.

I'm glad you're back.

[both laughing]

That was my bad from a long time ago.

I should have picked you
from the beginning.

I blame you.

It was my bad.

-You blame me?
-Yeah.

I feel like I did what's best for me.

It's unfortunate that there's been
a casualty here, and that's Abbey.

Tonight I choose Izzy

because she came
in that house with boss-a*s energy.

We picked up where we left off.

She opened herself up.

She's super attractive.
I can tell she's attracted to me,

and I'm curious to see
what we can turn this relationship into.

[intense music playing]

Let me walk you out, my lady.

Bye, love, thank you
for your beautiful home.

-Come anytime...
-Such hospitality.

Come stay anytime, my love.

-[Calvin] Yo.
-I'd love to.

Okay, let's go.

-Are you leaving too? Oh no.
-Yes.

-Ta-ta for now.
-See y'all later.

Y'all have a good one.

-[LC] Bye. See you later.
-Bye, love.

-[Calvin] Bye!
-I hate this.

I think I noticed this pattern where
I'm thinking grass is always greener.

I feel I've always been
making the wrong choice,

like almost self-sabotaging.

So, even though I'm matched with LC
and things are going well,

I don't wanna have any regrets,
and that's why I'm torn.

Definitely wanted to talk to you.

Oh, you did?

-We haven't talked all night.
-I know.

-Where the heck is LC?
-I know.

So, what's going on?
How's your night been?

-It's been good.
-Yeah?

Yeah.

I've noticed you were
talking to more people.

-I did. Yeah.
-Fill me in.

I mean, honestly, like...

Ugh.

I don't wanna put
all my eggs in the Nick basket, okay?

But I don't really know
if I like anyone as much as I like you.

Hey-o.

-Well...
-I mean, how are you feeling?

I could try to match with someone else,
but then I'd be throwing this away,

and I don't wanna do that.

-Trying not to compliment you too much.
-[laughs]

-No, please, keep it going.
-Come on.

-Maybe I'm words of affirmation. [laughs]
-[laughs] Yeah, there it is.

But, yeah. No, I definitely, like...

feel a good connection with you so far,
and I wanna keep seeing where it goes.

[LC] Well, I agree.

Hell yeah. Wow, wonderful.

-[laughs]
-[exhales]

I've been stressing for what?

Have you been stressing?

A little bit. [giggles]

[Nick] It feels good
to be matched with LC.

Definitely see a lot of potential there.

I know that I have this commitment issue,
if you wanna call it that.

I had a relationship
that lasted three years,

and we ended up breaking up,
and I don't wanna waste my time.

[Nick, laughing] Boom.

-[Anne-Sophie] We're leaving. Bye.
-Bye.

[Anne-Sophie]
I'm leaving with my perfect match.

-Bye.
-[Mitchell] Buenas noches.

[Shayne] I love you.

Buenas noches.

[Chase, in Spanish] Good night.
Time to sleep.

Stonk! [laughs]

[Mitchell, in English] Oh holy...

-[Chloe] Cuddle me.
-I got you.

[Chloe] Mm!

[Shayne] I wanna squeeze you hard,
not hurt you.

[both grunting]

[Chloe laughs]

[Shayne] We're so good. We are.

Can't wait to sleep with you tonight.

Sleeping with Georgia was annoying.
She snores.

[Shayne laughs]

She does.

[laughing]

[Shayne] Had to teach you a lesson
about sleeping with me.

You have to appreciate
sleeping with me now.

-I know.
-That's why. [laughs]

[Chloe] I didn't really sense
any jealous vibes from Shayne tonight.

He's actually impressed me.

I am on cloud nine at the moment.

-[both laughing]
-[Shayne] Oh my God.

But the pressure is sinking in
for everyone right now.

It's coming to an end.

This is make-or-break time for everyone.

[Dom] So...

[both laughing]

Can we match now?

No.

No, I'm gonna keep you guessing.
I've gotta talk to some people.

[laughing]

Stop doing this.

I feel me and Georgia
are the most solid match.

I feel like we're even more solid
than Joey and Kariselle.

Anything that's come our way,
me being put on dates,

men going after her,
we've turned down everything.

We're stronger than ever.
My eyes are set on no one else.

I'm just like, "Let's speed this up."

[Joey] I still can't believe
we've been together since day one.

-[Kariselle] You know what hit me today?
-You're really the A1, Day One.

I know. But you know what really hit me?

There's people who were
here from day one, day two,

like, in all different phases,

and half are like,
"You and Joey are still together."

And the other half are like,
"You and Joey are still together?"

f*ck them people. Jealous pricks.

Watching everybody leave tonight
makes me reflect on everything,

but we are down to the final five couples,

and all of us are here to see
who is gonna be the Perfect Match.

Oh, wait, plant. Watch the plant.

-Plant?
-I got you.

-Stay away from my girl, Mr. Plant.
-Wow! A gentleman.

I know.

It's really crazy to think that Kariselle
and I have come so far with each other

since day one of being in the house,
and tomorrow's the end of this,

and it's time to sort of figure out
when we leave here,

what's our future together as a couple.

-It's me and you, girl.
-It's me and you.

now I'm in love with the guy." [laughs]

[Chloe] How did it go when you and Joey
first started, like, talking?

You still had it in your mind,
"He's still a prick."

-That's the perception you had.
-[Kariselle] I did.

Joey kind of proved to me
through him fighting for me

and just, like,
changing his ways as a partner...

I was like,
"That's a guy I wanna be with."

-Yeah.
-Exactly.

I trust him with my life and I mean that.

But when it comes
to trusting him in a relationship,

my mind is like, "This guy
let you down over and over again."

"What's different this time?"

This thing's, like, almost over, and
I've been with the same guy since day one,

and I'm like, "Every time I've been
with this guy, he's just dropped me,"

and I'm like, "I don't know."
I feel like I'm being stupid.

I don't wanna be stupid,

but I also wanna have faith
in my relationship.

So I just feel confused.

At the end of the day, Joey makes
bad choices, and he's done bad things,

but he's a good guy.
Like, we're all a work-in-progress.

But I feel like
I just don't have that security

that when we leave this house,
things are gonna be different.

And I just... I'm really terrified.

-How are you feeling?

-Hey.

[chuckling]

I am very excited
to hang out with Nick one-on-one.

There's no one else here
that I'd wanna be with right now.

He has a lot of the characteristics
that I want in a partner.

I actually see potential with him
outside of this.

But I'm also a little nervous
'cause we've never hung out like that.

[giggles]

I've heard good advice about waterfalls...

-Don't go chasing them?
-You really shouldn't chase them. [laughs]

[Nick] It's the final date with LC,
and I think LC definitely likes me,

but I do get a sense
that she is unsure of where I stand,

so I think there are some doubts
in her head right now.

So I really like a lot about you.

You're tall. You've got nice arms.

[Nick chuckles]

[giggling] But besides that,
you have really good teeth.

I appreciate that you floss. [giggles]

-Big flosser.
-Big floss guy.

With you, honestly, it makes me
so nervous sometimes,

like "middle-school girl crush"
kind of nervous.

You make me very happy.

I feel like I can't wipe the smile
off my face any time I'm around you.

Even if I just like...
You come near me, I'm like, "Hi."

[giggles]

It feels like I'm in middle school,
writing "Nick" all over my notebook.

[Nick] Being with you feels comfortable,
like, it feels good,

and I also am optimistic
about what we have going.

For some reason,
I also feel kinda nervous.

It might be a good thing. I don't know.

I'm very glad that we met in the house.

What's your biggest concern leaving here,
with us?

We're in different states,
so that's in the back of my mind.

-It's one thing that is concerning.
-Yeah.

It's just an extra roadblock

on top of not really having
much time to get to know each other yet.

I have dated long-distance before,

but I sorta got to know the person
before we were long distance.

-Okay.
-That initial foundation helps with that.

Yeah.

I don't mind having a long-distance thing.

I really hope that we can figure it out
outside of here.

I do think that there is potential there.

But right now
I can't say you're my perfect match.

[sting]

["Dangerous" by I, Us, & We playing]

♪ I never felt giving up is good ♪

This is a different first date
than I've been on.

So different.

[Bartise] We're going
literally through the jungle.

I'll approach this conversation with Izzy
like every conversation. Open-minded.

I'm gonna listen, hopefully she listens,

and we have a mature conversation
about what we are.

I feel so connected to you.
We're physical, touching like this.

It feels good. And talking is easy.

-[Izzy] It's easy.
-You get me, I get you.

That's why we picked each other.

-Yeah.
-That's why we're good.

Today I've gotta find out
if Bartise is my perfect match.

But I'm not sure how it's gonna go.

Because we've had a rocky road.

We matched and he ditched me for Ines.
[chuckles]

Not bitter at all.

But now we're back together,
and we're getting on really well.

This is our chance to put it all out there
and say how we feel.

Just gotta be honest in this situation,
and that's where my head's at right now.

-[Bartise] Look where we are. All right.
-[Izzy] Let's go.

See that over there?

-[Izzy] Oh, this is so cute.
-[Bartise] It's cute, huh?

-A little picnic.
-There's a rock here.

-Ooh. Sit on the rock?
-Yeah, it's good.

-This dress... I love it.
-You like it?

-You've worn white several times.
-You remember my outfits.

I know. I got my eye on you.
I got my eye on you. [chuckles]

When I'm going off of
first judgements and everything,

you are 22, but you're wise
and mature beyond your years.

I respect that a lot.

Like for me, if we were
genuinely to talk about each other,

firstly, I saw you and I was like,
"He's fit." [laughs] First up.

He's what? Fair?

-Fit.
-Fit, okay.

We hit it off from the bat.

-Mm-hmm.
-Which is important.

And I think that's why we're here,
is because it happened quite quickly.

The foundation.

And I find it easy to talk to you.
You know?

And we get each other.
We're on the same page a lot.

If we were to talk about each other,

we don't know everything about each other.

-Right.
-When would you want kids?

-Jumping straight into it.
-Straight into it. When do you want kids?

So I'm 26 now. And I would like
to have kids by... Between 30 and 32.

-So four to six years for me.
-Okay. Yeah.

We're both here on this ultimate date,

where the next step is something
we need to start thinking about.

-It depends where I'm at and who I'm with.
-Mm-hmm.

-How long I've been with them.
-Right. Yeah.

What do you feel
about the distance side of it?

I remember the first night we matched,
I was like, "So where do you live?"

-How far away do you live?
-I live in Dallas.

-I don't know how far that is from...
-From Manchester.

It's a skip across the pond.

-A long way.
-Maybe a 12-hour flight.

-Have you done long-distance?
-Not that long.

[downbeat music playing]

Our biggest challenge
is gonna be the distance.

I would be willing to come to the UK
and see what we can turn this into.

And see what it can become.

Obviously, I've never done
that long distance before.

In the house, we get on amazingly.

So for me, in the house,
you'd be my perfect match. Right?

But me being absolutely honest,

I think it would be wrong
for me to sit here and be like,

"You are my one and only perfect match
on the inside and the outside."

I would like to
continue to get to know you,

but there's no way
we can say, "Perfect match."

about Chloe that I love.

I know what I want, and it's to
continue this outside of this experience.

I'm fully committed to her,
and I hope she feels the same way.

[Chloe] Today has been so overwhelming

because I know that it's coming to an end
and I've had an amazing time,

but am I Shayne's perfect match?

I mean, there's definitely been
some highs and some extreme lows.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

-This'll be our final date in Panama.
-I know.

Like, it's just crazy, innit?

I'd be lying to say, like,
I haven't thought about our future,

like, all the time.

Like, I have to.

It's like I said, I've never felt
this way about someone this quickly.

For the first time in my entire life,
I can actually be myself.

That's what brings out the best in me.

That's what you do,
bring out the best in me.

[romantic music playing]

When I first seen you,
when I looked at you,

I just knew,
"Ah, I'm in trouble." [giggles]

-"I'm in deep trouble here."
-I think we both knew that.

On that first date. [chuckles]

And I get butterflies when I'm around you.

You just know what to do around me.

Like, when we're in bed,
we cuddle, and you hold me so tight,

and it's almost like
I never want that to stop.

When it's good, it's good.
But when it's bad, it's bad.

[sting]

And I'll start with the argument.

Obviously, it was really frustrating
for me to try and speak to you

and for you to not hear me.

Sometimes you don't handle situations
the right way.

If that happens in the outside world,
then it's not gonna end well.

And I don't wanna jump into something
that isn't gonna work.

I've had serious doubts.

And I've thought,
"I can't go through with this."

[sighs] We're in an environment,
an experience

that's extremely mentally difficult
for everyone involved.

If I didn't care about you,
I wouldn't have, like,

kinda, like, worried that much that night.

I think I need to work
on my communication skills.

-That's something I have to work on.
-Yeah.

It is. But, again, it's like I wanna be
a better person because of you.

All these things, like, in the past,
I don't think about that stuff.

-Mm-hmm.
-I think about myself first all the time.

It's like I wanna put you with that,
and I wanna grow.

I'm willing to do whatever it takes
outside of here to make it work,

to make you happy.

and distance is another obstacle

but there's a woman named Georgia

-[laughs]

Maybe says something about me.

-I love how crazy we both are.
-Yeah, you're sick.

But I love that
you always lead with your heart.

You're the only person who can
make me, like, all gooey and corny,

but also f*cking hate you
at the same time.

And I love that we fight,
but we also love each other so much.

It makes no sense.

And that's the way I feel.

I feel like since day one,
I had a gravitational pull towards you.

You're the one person
that's come into my life

that has proven that you are
a true original in every single way.

That was really nice.

I'm waiting for the punchline,
where you just destroy that cute sentence.

Regardless of anything that happens here...

Yeah.

...I need you to know
that you are my best friend.

[uplifting music playing]

I just think you're my person.
You're my match.

And I'll choose you every day
till the day I die if I could. [giggles]

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

You've been my perfect match
since the day I met you.

I love waking up to you every single day.

And I don't want that to ever end.

-And I wanna ask you...
-You're joking.

[Lachey] What's up?

-[contestant] What's up?
-[Chase] Nick Lachey.

Tonight is the big night.

We're gonna find out
who the Perfect Match is.

Woo!

Let's go!

It's the finale tonight.

I think people are ready
for the fireworks.

I've kept a lot inside of me.

I'm gonna say everything on my chest,
and I'm gonna be unapologetically myself.

I feel love in the air right now.

[Mitchell] I feel true,
genuine connections coming.

Little Cupids flying everywhere.

[Diamond] Everybody is a little tense.

I feel like we gonna get into...
There's gonna be some sh*t. [chuckles]

That's how I really feel.
There's gonna be some sh*t.

-[Lachey] How's everybody doing?
-[contestants whooping]

[Lachey] Feeling good?

-[Mitchell] Yes, sir.
-[Chase] Feeling good? Feeling great.

Well, guys, tonight's the night.

While you guys won't be leaving here
as a perfect match,

there are still five couples
who just might do that.

So, right now I want
to bring out those five couples.

Guys, come on in.

Georgia and Dom.

Tonight is the night where
we all decide who's the Perfect Match.

It's intense. It's nerve-racking.

[Lachey] Izzy and Bartise.

-[Colony] He matched with Izzy.
-I know, Colony. It's sociopathic!

It's all come down to this.
Tonight's the ultimate decision.

We, as a unit,
decide who is the Perfect Match.

[Lachey] Chloe and Shayne.

[Chloe] I wanna prove to everyone

that me and Shayne
are definitely each other's perfect match,

but the pressure is definitely sinking in
for everyone right now.

Oh my God,
this is gonna be a hell of a night.

[Lachey] Kariselle and Joey.

What's up, guys?

It is time to see
who is the perfect match of the house.

I don't think anyone saw
this final five being the final five.

[Lachey] And our last couple, LC and Nick.

The stakes are high. It feels intense.

I'm looking forward to it,

and I really have no idea right now
who's gonna win this thing.

[Lachey] Can we get a round of applause
for our five remaining couples?

-[whooping]
-[clapping]

[Lachey] Well done.

You guys feeling good?

[contestants] Oh yeah.

[Lachey] Wow,
this has been one heck of a ride.

-[Chloe chuckles]
-It all comes down to this.

[suspenseful music playing]

I'm sweating.

What's this journey been like?

-Crazy.
-[Lachey] Crazy?

-Roller coaster
-[Lachey] Roller coaster? Okay.

Tonight's the night
you will be crowning the Perfect Match.

But before you vote,
we are going to spill the tea.

Now, all of you chose to come here
with one common goal,

to find your perfect match.

The couples here
have matched and unmatched.

Many of you have dated one another.
You all know each other very, very well.

At the end of this evening, I'm gonna ask
the entire group here tonight

to go to the board
to cast your vote in private

for who you think
is the most compatible couple.

The couple with the most votes
will earn the title "the Perfect Match."

All of our couples had a chance
to spend their last day together.

I'm sure we all wanna hear
how that all went down.

Let's start with Bartise and Izzy.

You guys have just recently matched up.

-Reconnected.
-Yeah.

Thanks to her.

-[laughs]
-[Lachey] How's this journey been for you?

Straight from the back,
me and Bartise got on.

We just had banter like...
I was comfortable with him.

So I picked him.

And then the next time we had to rematch,
he picked someone else.

At first, it was physical,

and then the other night,
I showed the more emotional side to me.

[Bartise] She heard my story.
I heard her story.

I expected her to come in
and almost slap me or yell at me.

She took a risk
picking me that first night,

and I screwed her over,
picked somebody else.

But she was understanding and mature.

So how does it feel to reconnect?

It feels great to me.
We had a great date today

talking about future plans,
about kids, about our past.

I felt the spark increase today.

Last time I checked, there's
a non-stop flight between Dallas and UK.

Oh, is there really?
I might be making a trip soon.

-I might make a trip across the pond soon.
-[cheering]

No excuses.

[Lachey] I want to defer
to some of you guys up there.

Ines, you were matched with Bartise.
What do you think?

I'm gonna give a lot of input tonight.
[laughs]

[laughter]

Okay, we're gonna get to you
on a few different pairings, but...

-[Ines] Could be a full section.
-[laughter]

Welcome to the house.

Do you feel like they're a good match?

They look handsome together and... yeah.

[Lachey] All right.
Abbey, I want to go to you.

Of course you do.

[laughter]

What do you think?

Bartise, 30 minutes before
he decided to match with Izzy,

he was telling me
he wanted to end the night with me.

[Diamond] Damn! I didn't know that.

It's been 24 hours. Your narrative change?
I don't see how you switch up so quickly.

I'm not that kind of person.

I think it's... Ugh, you know?

Anybody else agree
with Abbey's assessment of that situation?

He kind of did the same thing to Izzy.

He was with Izzy and then
last 30 minutes matched with Ines as well.

[Chase] Nobody here
has the right to say

what length of time can tell someone
they like each other or not.

-They're being realistic.
-[Fran] We're allowed to have opinions.

[Chase] I think
they look great, personally.

Nick asked her the question.

It just sounds like
a lot of resentment for no reason.

I don't think it's fair to attack Bartise,

because we've all
made an impulsive decision.

I get where you're coming from.
It must have hurt. It was horrible.

It was just, like, the switch-up.
That was my issue.

Yeah.

So I'll ask you point-blank.
Have you found your perfect match?

The time we've spent
in here has been good.

But, obviously, distance is a big thing.

If one of us said we were a perfect match,
I don't think it'd be real.

[Bartise] I think we're both realistic.

She said it today,
and I was not surprised hearing it.

I would've been surprised
if she'd said, "You're my perfect match."

Okay. Fair enough.

I wanna talk to LC and Nick.

[Chase] Yeah!

-[Lachey] Yeah!
-[cheering]

What's led you
to this point as individuals?

Nick was someone I was interested in
just from seeing all the shows and stuff,

before I got here,

so I was really excited
when he walked into the house.

So today it was definitely nice
to get to spend time one on one.

Nice. So tell me, Nick,
how's your journey been?

I entered the house on day one,

matched with a couple different people.

Ended up not really finding
what I was looking for.

Eventually left the house.

Some might frame it as I was not "chosen."

What do you know?

When I came back in,
LC came back in. We matched up.

Had the biggest test when
they brought every single person back in,

and we still matched again.

-And here we are.
-Nice.

We've been able to be
pretty open right off the bat.

Think today's date, like,
did it increase the spark level?

I definitely do. It made me like her more.

So, Nick did kind of
make a pass at me the other night. So...

Yeah.

I mean, we had a conversation.
I don't know what making a pass is, but...

-It's true. I had to say it.
-No, that's fine.

Do you think that
you found your perfect match?

Yes or no?

The simple answer is no.

-[LC] Yeah.
-[Nick] We talk about it.

We can't say that we're a perfect match.

-I think it'd be ridiculous.
-Yeah.

-[Lachey] LC, you agree with that?
-100%. Yeah.

Okay.

Awkward, awkward.

Yeah, I think it would be
kind of insane for us to be like,

"Perfect match. He's the one."

I'm not gonna say something
that I don't feel is genuine.

-I'm not saying it just 'cause we're here.
-No.

[Lachey] Thanks, guys.

Moving on to Chloe and Shayne.

You guys matched up.
Then you took some time apart.

Matched up again.

How's this journey been,
individually, for both of you?

It's been an absolute
bloody roller coaster, Nick.

-I'm not gonna lie.
-Really?

I would class myself as an extremely
strong woman and you know what?

I've learned so much about myself.

And even though it was
so intense with Shayne,

I needed to make sure
that my perfect match wasn't Mitchell.

And I found out in a short amount of time

that... I wanted Shayne back
and I missed him.

[Lachey] Shayne, how was that?

The night she matched with Mitchell
and you had to leave the house?

What was going through your head?

I'm a very emotional person.
I invested a lot into this,

so everything that happened,
I took it to heart.

That night was very difficult

because it was my first time
really getting back into the dating world

after what happened to me on my last show.

My first thoughts were
going back to getting left at the altar

and again getting left behind.

Do you think that that experience,
having to split for a second there,

do you think that made you guys stronger?

Absolutely, 100%.

Absence definitely makes
the heart grow fonder.

[Lachey] Mitchell, I'm curious
what you think about the way it went down.

[croaking]
Yeah, I really don't have a voice, um...

[all chuckling]

[Mitchell] I can't even say anything.

I will say, me and Shayne,
very similar people.

We didn't work out,

so I don't know if that's 100% real
and love and genuine.

I just... I know Chloe as well,
and I'm not buying it.

So when you say you know me well
and we're the same people,

we've talked maybe for five minutes.

-I said Chloe.
-No, you said me.

I said we are similar people.

We're both loud, outgoing,
and I know Chloe well.

You guys had a past relationship.
It ended up where it should.

You both are great guys.
I think her and Shayne will do great.

There's a lot of differences
in you and Shayne.

We had countless amounts of conversations,
and you couldn't see me in your future,

you said you wouldn't
prioritize a girlfriend,

and you expect me to wait
eight to fifteen years for marriage,

to have sex, and for me, there's
a lot of differences with you and Shayne.

[Lachey] Ines, you started out
with Shayne. What are your thoughts?

I actually had a lot of love for Shayne,

but ultimately when I saw Glowy-Chloe
coming back, and Shayne, together,

you don't ask yourself any question
at that moment. You just know.

Aside from that break,

were there any hiccups
that you guys had to overcome

to get to this point?

We've had a few tiffs
in our time here together.

We know that there's things
we need to work on in the relationship.

Well said.

I wanted to leave the house twice,
and I'm so thankful that I did not do it.

It would have been
the biggest mistake I've ever made.

-It was fate. What can I say?
-[both chuckling]

I guess there's just one question
left to ask you.

Have you found your perfect match?

Abso-bloody-lutely.



-[Lachey] All right.
-[contestant] Woo!

[Lachey] That was
our first match of the evening.

-Congrats. That's awesome.
-Thank you.

Let's move on to Dom and Georgia.

I think you guys might be

the second-longest
tenured match here tonight.

-Yeah.
-[Lachey] Yeah.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

[Lachey]
How's the journey been, individually?

'Cause obviously, Dom,
you started out matched with Francesca.

[Dom] It's been a ride. Uh...

I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I lead with my heart.

I'm also somebody where,
when I'm vulnerable and I let somebody in,

I'm quick to run away.

And this experience is all about growing
and not doing what you usually would do,

and I'm grateful I was in this house
and grateful for what Francesca did

'cause it forced me to face the man I was
and do something different.

To be honest, I feel like I already won
the night that Georgia chose me

because ever since then,
we've been tested,

and she's turned down everything
that she had to turn down.

She's like my other half.
She completes me.

I say the dumbest stuff.
She says it with me.

[giggles]

-That's my girl, so I'm grateful.
-Woo!

-[Georgia laughs]
-Yay!

[Lachey] Love it, man. And, Georgia?

I knew immediately
when I walked into the house

that Dom was exactly my type,

and... I could see
the way that he was with Francesca,

and I was like, "That's a great guy,

and that's all the qualities
that I would like in a long-term partner."

Mm.

I wasn't gonna pursue anything
'cause they were happy,

and then things unfolded and it led to
an opportunity where I could make a choice

to go with something
that I thought could be really great.

I didn't know where this could go.

I thought we could start it
on a friendship basis, see what happens,

and it's grown into much more.

[Lachey] Colony, I want to ask,
how was your time with Dom on a date?

I mean, I can appreciate
a man who knows what he wants,

so he did tell me on our date,
"Look, I just met Georgia."

"I wanna give her some time
and kind of see where it goes."

So, if they're saying
that they're good, I respect it.

I mean, if you guys like it, I love it.

[Lachey] Francesca, you matched up
with Dom right out of the gate.

How do you feel
seeing this match in front of you?

Of course it was a little awkward.

Everything was crazy. I feel like
it worked out for the best, clearly, so...

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Of course.

All right, Chase.

-[scattered chuckles]
-♪ Dun, dun, dun ♪

Do I think they're a match?
Absolutely not.

And, you know,
Dom gave his heart to somebody else.

Now his heart belongs to someone else.

I don't think you can make
two quick connections back to back

in such a short period of time.

I'm calling bullshit on the relationship,
and that's my opinion.

You guys could be a match.
The Perfect Match?

Do you say sh*t just to get a reaction?

-Exactly!
-You think so?

[Chase] You told everybody here

that if it wasn't Francesca,
you were gonna go home.

-So, how do you love two people at once?
-I didn't love two people at once.

The fact that you actually think
I was gonna pick you

after how many people here you've
embarrassed and lied to and scammed...

You were so not genuine,
and I could not trust you.

Dom's someone that has
all the qualities that I'm looking for.

I don't care.
I'm saying you are not a perfect match.

-Don't care what bullshit you're selling.
-[Georgia] You have that opinion.

Does anyone else agree with Chase?

Or is he by himself on this one?

[Chase] Does anybody else agree?
Yes or no?

[Joey] I do understand, Chase,
because I felt the same way immediately,

but I, being in the house with you guys,
seen you guys had your own thing.

So the thing is, I entered this
knowing he had feelings for her.

That wasn't like, "Now you're with me,
you have to get over that."

I entered that knowing that's how he felt.

The time you spent together
has shown your growth.

There was no pressure...

[Ines] I don't understand why there's
so much judgement about them,

when there was a situation
that Chloe had to face

with Shayne and Mitchell in the house,

and everyone respected Chloe's decision,

and everyone should respect
Dom and Georgia's decision as well.

I couldn't speak more highly of these two.

Honestly, that guy's had my back
through thick and thin,

and the way he carries himself
in just this conversation alone,

he could've went after Chase
if he wanted to. He did not do that.

And Georgia is literally
the sweetest human being in the world.

She would never hurt any single human.

And they are coming in
with the best intentions.

Everyone should have
respect for that couple.

Can I say, I feel like I know Georgia
the most out of everyone here.

She can't fake it. She will run
at any opportunity and she hasn't ran.

[Lachey] Think it's genuine?

-Oh yeah.
-It's a match, 100%.

-Everyone can see that.
-Yeah, 100%.

[Lachey] You've heard what everyone else
has to say about your relationship.

Now I wanna hear from you.
Are you a perfect match?

-Yes.
-[laughs] Yeah. I was gonna joke.

[cheering]

[applause]

All right. Last but certainly not least,

Joey and Kariselle.

East Coast blue collar kids.

-East Coast, baby!
-That's right, baby.

[laughter]

I mean, you guys literally have been
matched up from the very beginning.

-Yeah.
-Yep.

And seemingly didn't have
too many hiccups along the way.

I completely disagree.

There's been hiccups
every step of the way in the best way.

[Lachey] How'd you get through?

To tell you the truth, coming here,

I didn't have any expectation
of being here, like this right now.

I figured I'm gonna go date,
hook up a little bit.

I definitely have had issues
moving on from my past,

and that's something
we've talked a lot about,

abandonment issues,
and I always expect people to walk away,

so I try to keep a guard up and a wall
to not get too close to people,

and being here with her
has literally changed my life.

From where I was day one with Joey...
it's so different now.

This is my person.

I cannot live without you.

You need to know that.

Joey always gives
public declarations of love.

-[chuckling]
-[Kariselle] Can't live without this man.

He's so much greater
than I think a lot of you guys even know.

And I love you so much.

-I love you too.
-[Shayne] Yeah!

-I'm horny.
-[laughs]

Was there one moment

or any particular moment
throughout the course of this process

that changed things for the two of you?

[Joey] It's been the quiet moments

of us really talking
about overcoming past experiences.

It's fate that we're
here together right now.

-Literally.
-100%, everything happens for a reason.

So those late-night conversations in bed
are what I'm gonna hold on to,

more than anything else
that's happened with anyone here.

Let's talk about the hiccup
everyone knows about,

obviously, when Chase
came into the equation.

How did you guys get past that?

We all came here
knowing this is a crazy experiment,

and out in the real world, I can't say,

"Babe, go on a date
with one of my friends."

That's not something I would do.

But given the experience,

I was like, "If she is going
to be happier with someone else,

I can leave here with my head held high,
saying I want the best for her."

And I think we always
chose each other in the end,

and I think we grew a lot because of that.

I think I needed that temptation.

Chase is a really attractive guy,
and Joey kind of claimed me the first day.

So I needed a hot man
to tell me he thinks I'm attractive

and let me decide for myself.

I was like, "I wanna know I'm here
with Joey because I chose to be,"

not because Joey claimed me

and everyone was too afraid
to f*cking even look at me wrong.

Chase, I wanna hear your side.

You had a moment with Kariselle.

Kariselle and I have gone through
highs and lows here.

Had great conversations

and even some bad conversations
when it comes to kissing challenges.

[laughs] How's your tooth?

Just so everybody's clear, I don't think
Kariselle's a one-out-of-ten kisser.

-Woo!
-[laughter]

Glad we cleared that up.

Okay, she's definitely ten out of ten,
and I think Joey's a really lucky man.

I love Joey.

I love Kariselle.

That I can see.

They have my blessing 1,000%

Chase being nice. That's so weird.

How was your date today?
Your final romantic date here?

-It was the best day of my life.
-Um...

What none of you know is,

I didn't want to say
anything to any of youse,

but I asked Kariselle to marry me today.

-[Mitchell] I called it!
-[Chloe] Oh my God!

[Mitchell] I called it!

We're engaged!

Are you f*cking kidding me?

-[Francesca] You're kidding!
-[Lachey] Best day of your life.

[Francesca] Are you joking?

-It's real. Yeah, I asked him.
-It's real.

[screaming]

That's awesome. Congrats.

But are they a perfect match?

[all laughing]

Nice. You guys have such a fire.
You know? That's passion, man.

It reminds me of my relationships.
I appreciate you guys.

I think I speak for everybody here
when I say congratulations. It's amazing.

Amazing.

This is somewhat of a formality,
it seems, at this point,

but I'm gonna ask the question.
Are you each other's perfect match?

f*ck yeah!

This is my soulmate, the ride or die.
The girl I'm with for the rest of my life.

-This is my future husband.
-Yeah.

That feels good to say, right?

-Yeah.
-[Kariselle, giggling] It does.

[Lachey] Guys, this is really exciting.

We clearly have some
amazing matches here tonight.

And they all
deserve to be the Perfect Match,

but only one can be chosen.

[tense music playing]

Please head to the boardroom
to make your votes.

I'm in the boardroom. Let's suss this out.

Show me Joey and Kariselle.

I feel like they are incredible together.
I think they're the Perfect Match.

Locked in.

I mean, I love them individually,
but are they good together?

They're so dissimilar.
Are they the Perfect Match?

You know, for me the Perfect Match is

also about going through challenges
and experiences together,

and I'm locking it in.

Dom and Georgia,
you guys are the Perfect Match.

Out of all the couples that are here,
they are the most genuine.

I think I'm gonna give them
my vote for the Perfect Match.

Let's lock that in.

So I love this couple.

They have great vibes, good energy.

[croaking] In my eyes,
these two came in here,

they found love,
and they are the Perfect Match.

I feel like a lot of people
think this is a tough decision,

but the Perfect Match is obvious.

I'm locking it in.

-[Joey] Holy...
-[Lachey] Congratulations, guys.

-[Joey] Oh my God!
-[cheering]

I genuinely thought
it was Joey and Kariselle.

They got the ring.
You get a Perfect Match.

It's fine. You guys have a wedding, so...

-I'm, like... I checked out, yeah.

Hi, Dee-Dee.

You're on camera right now.

[Dee-Dee] I'm on camera?

You're on camera,
but are you sitting down?

-You're not driving, right?
-No, I stopped.

All right, I gotta tell you something,
Ma, I just got engaged.

Oh my God! I can't believe it!

[Kariselle] Oh my God.

Oh, honey, I'm so happy.

[Kariselle] Aww!

I'm happy.

Well, welcome to the family.

Thank you. [laughs]

Where are you?

What?

-Where are you?

[Kariselle laughs]

Ma, I love you. I gotta go, Ma.
