Ep 7 Look out for the Kiss with the Brunette...
We start this week episode by being told there are only 3 girls left in each bedroom. Oh no, does that mean they are running out of eyelashes?!!!
To recap Jasmin Rachel, Emily haven’t had a single date yet, my money is on Emily getting one this week.
Oh yep the hot girl Emily is the lucky one (it's who I’d pick). The girls are disappointed with her response, hey Em, jazz it up for the others girls a bit, but not too much otherwise they’ll complain.
Its physical attraction from Sam’s perspective. Um yeah skinny model type, gorgeous luscious locks, fake eyelashes, you are only male after all Sam.
Emily complains to the camera that she’s been single for 6 months and is unhappy about it – I wonder how long the application process takes for the show and lockdown before filming begins - prob about 6 months?
Anyhoo, she admins "I can be a bit of a princess sometimes and i think it's more that I'm high maintenance within myself - not sure what that means exactly. BUT Um why were you complaining on Instagram last week about how you were being portrayed in the show - as a high maintenance princess? Seems about right to me? Not that there’s anything wrong with either of those traits – clearly…
The other girls (the newly found besties Heather and Nina are seen talking about her upcoming date and her personality. She is very particular and definitely knows what she likes - aparently. Heather asks Nina is she a princess or just ‘proper’?... Um Nina thinks for about 3 seconds – nice of her to consider her answer. She’s a princess. Case closed. No more discussions about it please.
So it’s a treasure hunt date, which begins with them having to stand up paddle board (cool!) – which results in a dunking (so I have a quick question – where was that date, surely not Sydney or even NSW to be bikini weather at this time of the year?). Anyway Emily is glad she didn’t want to have to dive down into the water for her next clue. Sounds like it might be fun to me - but im not game enough to play games on TV so i'll shut up.
Back onshore and it’s a (not very challenging) stroll to where the treasure is buried, how adventurous, were the props team on holiday this week? I’m impressed that she gets down and digs in the sand with her actual manicured hands though.
Wow there is a jewellery box from Zamels with a crystal bracelet, it was almost (in my opinion) a fake awe – but Sam says it’s the most animated she’s been. Again we know all we need to. Jewlellery whether real or not lights her up. Can't wait to see if it lights the other girls up too. Can't wait until Jasmin finds out about the gift - waaaay more that a peck on the lips.
He shares with the camera that she’s sexy, but hot and cold. Me thinks she’ll not be staying on the show much longer. Although she is sexy… if you like that sort of thing (guys?)
During their sun bake he gives her a red rose to guarantee her through this weeks eviction, perhaps he likes the quiet side of her. Afterall it would be refreshing after you know… recent times.
SO... we don’t see the bracelet treasure shared with the girls, we just head straight to the group date where Jasmin is struggling with the fear that there may be animals involved with the 'back to nature' clue. *eye roll*.
All of the others girls are just grateful to get out of the house. Even though it's a guess that it’s be on a farm or outdoor setting – somehow they all have flannie shirts and gypsy tops, some still stick on the falsies. Sigh.
The first activities is bobbing for apples, coz I just know every farmer out there loves to get a bucket of apples from the horses on a weekend to get the girls to duck for apples.
This weeks female humiliation brings out Heather’s competitive side resulting in a win of the wet tshirt competition – um having larger breasts apparently hindered some of the other ladies – Fiiiix call out the adjudicators.
Anyway Heather gets some quiet time with Sam for her efforts. Miraculously her blouse is dry by the time they turn the corner. weird.
Sam comments about the absence of Heather’s ‘Cute pig tails’ and that he loves picking up where they left off. Ebru quietly comments to the camera that perhaps there is more to the story that Heather is letting on. Smart lady.
Sam suggests to Heather that perhaps the 1:1 time was an impromptu decision, suggesting he really wants to spend more time with her, which is weird coz the lemonade station was all set up… I guess it could have been a group activity of squirting lemonade into one another’s eyes. Second weird - just ask her out on a date, and dump the others without having 1? Just a suggestion - oh wait you're on a reality show and you have to do what the producers tell you. That sucks.
Onto the sheep pen and Jasmin has just peed herself with anxiety - just kidding. But she is definitely not in her comfort zone and is letting everybody know. Whatevs. Some like animals some don’t, some win the guy, some just complain about being on a national TV show and being made to do AWEFUL things in exchange for free rent and food for months.
It’s time for a drink declares Sam at teh end of their exhausing apple gathering, lemonade preparing and sheep (clipping?) day. They head off to the barn for a big orgie (Emily wouldn't mind missing out im suire) oh no i'm lying it's a barn dance.
Jasmin cracks her face by teaching them all line dancing, hey at least she’s not complaining about the kissing – yet. Straight afterwards Sam asks Heather for more 1:1 time. Even I wasn’t expecting this 2nd chat, so it is actually an appropriate time for the girls to complain - again.
Jasmin and Ebru are very upset he’s chosen to speak to Heather - again. Meanwhile Sam is telling Heather off for thanking him for taking time out to talk to her. He replies, 'talking to you is not a chore, so stop thanking me'. He gives her a peck on the cheek (don't tell Jasmin) after she shares that she will be patient whilst he carries on with his other polyamorous relationships in the ‘show’.
Sarah then gets some 1:1 and as it’s been about a month since she’s seem him she gushingly declares how great he is and regrets it to the camera afterwards. We've all been there sweetie, we just don't have to wait a month to have the conversation - or have 100,000 watching. It's gonna be even more awkward when the playback is shared at the finale and you're not dating him.
Then he picks out time with Snez much to the disgust of Jasmin. Um OK Lady… there are 8 girls how can he spend time with each of you – seriously suck it up! He is probably told to pick 2 or 3 only, and why would he pick you? Give him a GOOD reason and maybe he will.
Sam tells Snez that it doesn’t matter that he doesn’t know much about her, he’ll find out the other stuff later. It’s physical and the other stuff will just come in time. "Sometimes we don’t need stupid words in our vocab. Sometimes we should just do this".... and WOW he totally jumps her for a pash.
Right o – 1stly - GUYS pay attention – that it s a REALLY good line AND smooth move!!!!
You do not need to worry about being rejected with the pre frame up and line that he just ran. You’re totally gonna be in!
2nd I did not see that coming, did you?? Especially after what he’s just been saying to Heather. Poor love. That’s Polyamory for ya!!
BUT i’m guessing the producers have possibly been holding back some footage, for that little surprise. (Actually check out the photos to find a clue that wasn’t shared with us in the show). Oh and he whispers something to her about the other girls which they very conveniently voice over - damn it.
Onto the rose ceremony and remember Emily has a rose (and sparkly bracelet) from the date. The others are guaranteed another week of emotional torture as follows. Interesting order Sam…
Sarah
Bec
Ebru
Snezanna
Heather
Rachael
Nina
Bye bye Jasmin ‘who hasn’t given up on lov'e. Thank goodness, she hasn’t had a boyfriend and she’s 24.
Next I pick Rachael for a single date which may result in eviction.
