It's a weekend and we are back. We are horned up and we're going deep. Deep into the next week of Love Island USA season 8. We've got episodes 10 through 14 to discuss here. We've got people dumped from the villa. We've got new couples. We've got old couples resurfacing. This is absolutely insane.

Sean, do you feel like you have a grasp on people? people's names now. Definitely better. I don't know if I have all of them. There's still a couple of characters. I have a cheat sheet up next to me now, so hopefully that'll help. There you go. I love that. I'll also say this, fellas, we talked about last week about how your love for these people just grows and grows and grows and grows and you just care so much. That is absolutely still the case for me over here. But I will also say the way that my emotions have flip-flopped on certain people who I thought were the greatest people in the world, and now I'm not so sure.

I'm on a roller coaster. I'm on a roller coaster in the villa here. Couldn't agree more, Dan. It is a roller coaster, dude, and I can't wait to get into it because I, and I know Sean, sweet Sean, is always so nice because these are real people, but I'll tell you what, I fucking hate some of these people already.

Hard H, dude. You hate? Oh, yeah. Gotta get them out. Got to get them out. I need some people fucking out of here, pal. That is awful. That is absolutely.

awful. We are going to get into all of the craziness, but like we keep saying, I think we got to just dive into our favorite moments, some of the craziest moments. We left last episode with Baya getting

tossed from the island. Yep. So, let's begin from right there. Anything pop out for you guys? Any crazy moments right off the bat? Dude, I have a question for you guys, because there was also the um the soul kc thing like that happened from all this recouple you know like like that shit went down

right away and uh and which we'll get into because that was a saga for this whole week but i have a question for you guys i literally don't understand why you wouldn't go on love island and on your first two days when it's still open and it's like you know whatever to meet everybody try as hard as you can to get your good match. But whoever you get with, whoever you get put with, even if it's not, you're like, oh, I really wanted Kada or she wasn't there, but I really wanted Kenzie and like I got Anaya. At that moment, I think I would just go, I'm just going to be the most lovety-dovey, like full-on boyfriend.

This whole never even, every time a bombshell walks in, don't even look, don't even talk to them, like refuse to kiss them in challenges because, dude, you will win the show. Like at the end of the show, they'll go, that couple was amazing. here's a hundred grand and then after the show go text keda or whatever like go fucking text whoever you want like this is no contract you just meet the girls there be of prince charming win the money and then be like okay peace i'm out now i'm gonna talk to whoever i want the stakes need to be higher it needs to be like 90 day fiancee where you are married to the person you leave with yeah i totally agree i think that's a problem that they're having in this uh in this season i imagine it was apparently wasn't like this in other seasons but I mean, as Saul said when she left, or as Soul said when she left, it's like it's couples island. It's everyone's got together on episode one and they've stayed together ever since. And you can tell the producers are trying to engineer things to try and break it up a little

bit. But everyone's like, everyone's locked in and have been locked in for a long time. Yeah, it's well said. And what's difficult is there's a part of me that when Soul came. in, I was love and soul. Soul shook things up. I loved what was going on with Sincere because I felt like Sincere and Melanie were an absolute hurricane that would destroy every bit of civilization. And that needed to be removed. And the soul played her part in helping that. But when Soul, there was the moments with the pie and then now this moment where I'm kind of like,

soul is, it has emotions. She reacts to stuff. But the couple's island part is a fair critique. It does feel like my mentality, like you guys saying up the stakes, I completely agree. I want two new bombshells literally every day. Same, dude. Come on. Same. I want Love Island to be called.

I want the next season of Love Island to be Love Island Bombshell City. And it's like every day two new people come in. Because frankly, as much as I like seeing these relationships like growing and progressing and all of that, I need more drama. I need more stakes because, yeah, these people are just married now. I feel like I'm watching a bunch of old married couples. Dan, and all the people in a tough situation, which I admit there are, by the way, like the Kenzie, like right after this when America split couples up. So it's like, hey, Kenzie, you're now with Caleb, no longer with Corbyn, sincere, you're with Matt or not with Mel, whatever. Those are tricky. Like, you don't just

shut off feelings, but it's, they all are so hypocrites where it's like, they're like, I deserve to be able to make out with my new couple because I'm exploring, but also I'm going to make out with my old guy, and he can't make out with his new couple because that's hard for me to watch. And I'm like, no. Like, Sean, to your point, incorrect. This is fucking makeout island. Suck it up. Dude, like, it is not couples island. It's, yeah, that's driving me crazy. Remember, there was that moment. Do you guys catch that moment where Casey actually mentions that? It felt like a breaking the fourth wall of Love Island. Uh, Sean, do you know what I'm talking about? I don't remember. Like, there was a moment where Casey, oh, it was after, we're jumping all over

the place here. But it was after the Islanders voted and they bounced Gabe. And they're talking about the reasoning. The gals are talking about the reasoning why they did that. And they're talking about being promiscuous. And then it cuts to Casey doing a talking head. And he's like, they're saying he's promiscuous. We're all making out with each other every single day doing all these stupid games. He's just playing the game. And that was the first time I've heard someone acknowledge how insane it is, how everyone makes out with each other every day. I think they had a problem with lustful. I think they, it was yes. They're like, he's so lustful and he was like, what? It's love island. Dude, they made it sound like the devil shot. Like they were like, he's got horns coming out of his

head and a spiky tail. And I was like, dude, calmed out. You are all banging. You were all literally banging at night next to each other. I am genuinely confused as to what the logic was. Because they, the only justification that they really gave, that the girls really gave for kicking out, Gabe was lustful, which I'm not really sure. What do you think was the real justification? Because I don't even think that they think that's the real. That's just what they came up with to justify their answer. But why do you think they went with that? No, I, uh, I, I think you are, I think that's kind of like spot on. I think it was just a very clear difference between the two of them. But let's, because that was like kind of the penultimate thing that happened in this

breakdown, right? Those two getting bounced. So I want to, I want to come a little bit forward here. Let's, let's talk about Zach and Kada for a second. Okay. Because early in these episodes, we have episodes 10. What's that? Like my great first gaslight of the week here. So, Okay. So we have Epps 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 14, and 15. We're disgusting. We're disgusting. I think 11 through 15. 10 was last, was last. Oh, we, we did, okay. All right. So 11 through 15 here. Zach and Kada, who feel as though they are my strongest couple in a lot of ways. And the other islanders felt the same way when they sent them to, what is that room called?

hideaway. Hideaway. Hideaway. The hideaway. They felt the same way. So right before that, we get a snippet of Zach and Kada in bed talking, and Zach telling Kada that he doesn't want to have sex with her

because if a bombshell comes in, he doesn't want that to blow up things together. And if they were to have sex, it would make their connection even stronger and it would complicate things. That's what we want. And Kada was definitely like, excuse me how did you guys feel about that moment from my British boy Zach dude Dan this is my gaslight

she goes excuse me baking powder and he goes he goes no no no no I'm I was saying if we fuck and some new dude comes in and turns your head that would suck and she's like no you literally just said I don't want to fuck and then immediately meet a new girl and she's and he's like no no no I was saying you, you will be to do guy. And I was like, bro, that is nuts. Zach has felt like, like that moment felt so, I am a classic guy who has been obsessed with the chase and this beautiful girl and I finally got her and it feels like Keda is finally reciprocating my strong feelings for you. And now I'm getting disinterested. But then everything Zach does after that is the opposite. Like he's the most jealous, clingy guy ever.

I can't figure these two out. Dude, they rattled me too in the hideaway. I'll jump to right there because Kada is like fucking spank me, get the whip out. And then Zach kept being like, really? You want the handcuffs? Are you sure? And then like after the girls were like, what happened? And she's like, there were all these sex toys.

We didn't use any of them. I was like, Zach, what the fuck, dude? Like, Kada is just being like, let's wave our freak flags, pal. And he's like this, no, pull those flags down. I don't get it. I wonder if Zach is going to be in season two, a heated rivalry. Maybe he has like a Shane Hollander thing going on right now. He prefers to be the whole.

It's a peg in a whole world, Sean. He prefers to be the whole. Yeah. Dude, he was looking at Bryce's dick, which I want to get to later, but he had a good gander at Bryce's dick. Like, there's a lot of suspicion with the, you know, my favorite couple, Zach and Bryce. I just feel like they're going to be the ones that walk out with the money after they have this revelation and discover something about themselves.

I'm pretty sure in the letter episode moment, Zach, Zach makes some comment that's like caught on camera where he's like, can I write a letter to Bryce? Yeah, he did. That is the bromance of the show, man. Dan, you talked about a roller coaster, dude. I actually, here's my biggest roller coaster. I don't like, or I'm liking Zach less and less every time he's on screen with Kada. and then I immediately like him more and more every time he's on screen with Bryce.

I really love him when it's just the boys. But then when he's with his girlfriend, I'm like, ah, damn it. Bryce makes him a better man. Yeah, it's true. Exactly. But we get our first official smash session with these two in the hideaway.

And it's, I say official, because it sounds like Jen and Gabe are clapping cheeks under those sheets every single night. When the guys are talking and they're like, yeah, you keep doing. the little tent thing with your sheets there. And he's like, I, don't I have fun.

Yeah, yeah. Unbelievable. Dude, what was good with the donuts? What was good with the hot dogs in the soccer challenge? Do you guys remember that? Like, you have to eat it. Literally every person was like, oh, fuck. And I was like, what is the food budget on the island?

Can we get the animal hot dog? Well, what I assume is that it was like a cold hot dog. Yeah. And if you've ever eaten a cold hot dog, it's not the same. Yeah. So I'm cold hot dog for sure. Yeah. Yeah.

Actually, it probably gets pretty hot shot. Pretty hot. It's pretty hot. Pretty friction. A lot of blood flow. Probably pretty hot. Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. Or wait, Dan, what did you ask? You were asking about Jen and Gay banging? No, I just, I said that they were an unofficial. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Bang session, which is great. Dude.

But as far as moments, again, as we're trying to navigate through this, basically we have the Bia is gone, we've got the new couples. I think we got to get to the letter moment. Because the letter moment, you know, we have more moments of Casey and Anaya kind of on the rocks trying to figure out where they're at because Casey was saying that he was interested in Seoul and he didn't explore that. And it's getting in Anaya's head and Anaya's being like, hey, what's the deal here? that leads to the letter episode which i thought was great manufactured drama by the show that was a good

that that was a great recoupling so in this moment this this is the first moment for massive shifts in how i feel about some of these islanders okay good good cook but in this moment we had the obvious ones of Zach and Kada writing letters to each other. We had Gabe and Jen writing what I thought were actually quite lovely letters to each other. And credit to Gabe for writing and then I think he said he translated it, which is great or something like that. But either way, that was great. Casey and Anaya have a, I thought was a lovely, bit tearful moment where they're kind of like, hey, like here are my actual feelings. We do really like each other. We'll have more drama coming to that later. But then the big ones were Caleb and Kenzie together with Corbin still being

an issue. Corbin and Mel together. Are they exploring that? Do we like that? And then sincere and soul together. Start off, McKenzie opens her mailbox. She's got two letters. Bang. Letter from Caleb, which is nice and sweet. Letter from Corbyn, which I have to admit was better. I Dude, it's a competition, too. It's not even who she likes more. She's like, unfortunately, this letter was better. So you were fired. I think absolutely what is said in those letters plays a part.

And Corbyn's letter was like, all of his stuff about being like, this is worth not quitting and fighting for. I was like, dude, that's going to get you every single time. Yep. And then Caleb opens his mailbox. It is empty. Corbin opens his mailbox letter from Kenzie. And not one from Mel. Yeah, sure.

Worth noting. Curious your guys' thoughts. This moment was the beginning of, or not even the beginning, frankly. This was the nail in the coffin. I don't trust Kenzie. I don't like Kenzie's morals. I don't like the way she, to quote the Islanders. don't like the way she moves.

I respect, you got a point about someone else on this later, CP. I respect playing the game, but I think there's a way to play the game and explore without lying. And she's a liar. Dude, okay, so Sean, I want you taking on this. What was the lie that McKenzie said? I think the way Kenzie was jerkin, Caleb around,

and frankly, Corbyn around was not cool. I thought, I thought everyone, one, including Caleb, knew that McKenzie was trying to get back with Corbyn. I think that was very transparent. At the same time, not being like, I don't want to be with you, Caleb. But she made it, I thought she made it pretty obvious to everybody that she was trying to get back to Corbyn. I think it was obvious.

Okay. Because this was a point I had. This, the moment I wrote down in my notes here, Dan, was this. It's funny, you said lying because I wrote, this is the moment in the show where I realized everyone is lying. And my interpretation, Sean, was this. Kenzie is going to Caleb. I'm with you, obviously, I was like she likes Corbyn Moore.

But to Caleb, you know, they're kissing a bunch and she's going, I'm willing to explore this. But now that I see the letter and right after the letter the girl's asking her and she goes, I'm so happy, like yelling. So I'm like, okay, so you actually were never interested in Caleb, which is completely rat. But do what Mel did or do what Melanie did. I know she doesn't like Mel. Do what Melanie did, which is like, I'm literally going to sleep outside.

that's how not interested in exploring Corbyn I am. We haven't kissed. We haven't slept together. If Kenzie had done that to Caleb, I'd be like, fair play. Kind of dramatic, but fair play. Because, like, Melanie is dramatic. But all the, like, hanging out with Caleb and kissing Caleb and chatting, when I'm like, dude, you don't like him at all.

Is that that felt tough. Maybe she was trying to convince herself that she liked him. I think she was. Hey, Sean, that, I'm, that's okay. I'd be okay with that. But it's the, like, I think you were right. so clear she's more into Corbyn, but I just felt like she was going

and making out with Caleb and being like, as Chris said, like, I'm into this. Like, let's give this a shot. And then she would also say, like, by the way, I haven't been kissing Corbyn. Like, I'm not doing anything like that. And I'm like, are you guys basically fucked in that makeout session? So

let's not tell this poor guy that you're not making out. And I think like, again, this is where I respect her for, she's playing the game. dude. We do always have to remember. Like, I suppose this is a game show and there's money at hand, which is like kind of funny when we think about it. But when she-

It's also funny when people are writing love letters to each other and they've known them for like seven days. And they're like, pulling their eyes out almost. It's like weird marker. Do you get someone a pen? You still don't know if they're like a shoes on or shoes off household. You're writing these letters to them. dude that's so funny

I get what you're coming from now with McKenzie she was maybe a little bit misleading to Caleb and poor Caleb had to get cucked for like a couple days Sean that was the worst part like poor poor Caleb remember last episode guys where I

referenced that show that I can't remember where there was like a normal dude on the show and then he like left after a day yeah yeah Caleb's got to get off this show dude he is like too sweet and genuine for this type of a show because you say that you say that You say that, but most recently, he's now swerving in on...

Ceda, dude. Ceda. Ceda, which I'm like, look, you're in my good graces now, Caleb, but you can't go around stealing people's whammon. You got to... Yeah. I know it's... But it's a game. You got a peacock a little bit and stuff.

You got to win some hearts. Because otherwise, if you're on the island and you're not getting anybody, you're going to get kicked off eventually. And it was just by pure luck that the women didn't go with the same logic that the men did. in who's going to get booted off. But it's like, it's not a good luck to go up to a girl while she's talking to her couple and be like, let's go talk for what was seemingly a very long time. And then I was very disappointed with Kada's reaction. Dude.

He was like, you're really locked in with Zach. And she's like, no. Sean. You went out of his way to express that. I have written down in my what the fuck moments. I have written down, Kate is saying, quote, she's still super. open. I was like, girl, what? Like, what the fuck? Like, you got, like, you're

still, the way these people act, and then the way they all, it all cuts these moments where like this, yeah, like, we're obviously still super open. And I'm like, tell that to Seoul and her head's going to spin off her body, dude. Yeah. Because it doesn't be, uh, Bryce and Trinity, and I have a pun to say about them, but

they are the only couple who is like, no, I'm pretty happy and I'm not, I'm not open. Like, Katie and Zach and, and, and Anaya and KC, I know they went through shit, but in I and Casey, like, Sean, the ending episode is like Casey being like yeah dude I'm excited to meet a new bombshell I'm like dude um so to quickly go back to the kensi thing Sean I think you're right like that might have been Caleb's breaking bad moment like that he that might have turned him into a villain and he's now like

okay fuck it dude but um yeah like my only issue was it just felt like this guy was given no chance because like he walked in and everyone was like this. Kenzie is obsessed with exactly you. You are a blonde Southern dude. Easiest dunk of your life, pal. And like everyone in the villa was going, go talk to Kenzie, go to. And Kenzie, when talking to him,

would be like, yep, you're exactly my type. Let's make this work. And she had zero intentions of making it work. And I think his issues, when he kind of is able to say something, he's like, I wish you would just told me that you were completely closed off and all you wanted to do was get back.

with Corbin. And then my larger issue, and this is no disrespect to Corbyn, because I actually love Corbyn, I think Kenzie's interest in Corbin is purely sexual. And who can blame her? Because he's the hottest fucking dude I've ever seen. But I am like, it's like when she would talk to the girl, she'd be like, yeah, Caleb's just like, he's younger than me. I was like, damn, that's tough that that's why he's getting deaded. And then it's just like, McKenzie's only invested in Corbyn because of his looks and not because when he was a child, he was so creative that he made a rocket ship out of boxes. This is the most insane fucking, whoa, child prodigy.

What a unique life experience you've had as a child. Dude, Sean, how about, you did what literally every boy has ever done when cardboard boxes have been around. Dude, how about this, Sean? I flagged this one. When they, he finally had one chat with Melanie, like they were like, we should give this a try. and he goes, I'm a videographer. And Melanie goes, I write movies.

And I was like, please God. If there is a lore book, please. I need to see Melody write a script and Corbyn shoot it. And Corbyn shoot it. And please release it. A challenge. That would be great. That was fucking awesome.

Hey, I will say in the Prince Charming, this has nothing to do with those two skills, but in the Prince Charming Challenge, I thought Corbyn's acting was phenomenal. He came out, he was like getting into it, and I was like, fucking rights, man. This guy is fantastic. They had fun with that one.

What do you guys, how did you feel about Souls crash out after the letter situation? Because we didn't even touch on that. We spent so much time on Caleb, Corbin, and Kenzie. We then go to sincere open sales, his mailbox, two letters, one from Soul, one from Mel.

He ends up choosing Mel because his letter was in Melanie's mailbox, which was a, I was like, oh my God, that moment. First of all, a lot of people were saying Mel's letter to Sincere was so sweet because there was all these references

from like the 14 days they've known each other. I thought it was great. Like, I was like, how do you have all of these things filed away that he has said that you're now referencing in a letter? But maybe that's me being too critical of how up and down there. Is that what you said? I thought it was crazy.

I thought it was a little bit. I was like, this feels like stalker. She's like, and attached at the bottom of the letter is a lock of your hair. Dude. He's like, whoa,

but, uh, a lock of her hair. So he's giving her hair back to her. Yeah, she's like, I've, I skipped this off you,

day three. And I've been sleeping with it outside and the fucking beanbag chair. And here you go. I love you so much. And he's like, and it worked. It worked dead. It totally,

totally got. of I listen that was it was pretty wild well Dan I'll say this to answer your question because you teed it up for us I when he first right before the letter when he brought her for a chat I was like and he was like I still miss you or whatever I was like this is bag work where because I've seen the internet memes I'm kind of behind I'm always catching up on the apps and the internet has hate sincere now and I didn't quite know why then I saw that chat and I realized man because he's that moment was when he's doing that thing where a guy just wants every girl to love him and I'm like, dude, it's not fair.

Like, let her go. This is a fucking game and it's real feelings. Like, stop doing that. But then he picked her in the letter thing. I was like, oh, my God. So that was crazy. Dude, I blame soul after the pie. I didn't blame soul after this one.

I, like, sincere is, it is the best, it is the most delicious drama of all time that this human being's name is sincere. Yeah. Because, like, this dude. is a legitimate cartoon Disney villain. I have never seen someone go on a show like this and just walk around and lie to everyone, like the way he does.

And I think that he actually in his brain thinks that he is just like being up front with everybody. But like when he's like laying in a bed with soul, telling her all these things and like, you notice how he tries to like work her name into everything. He's like, you know, like that's your soul. Like that's your light that you're giving the world. And then he sits with Melanie

because he's like, I'd just like to have a closure talk with her. And then he's like, of course you're my number one. You've always been my number one. And I'm like, oh my God, dude, are you like, what is happening? Like, I'm actually starting to wonder if people, the producers are feeding him lines because they need something this insane. But like, that moment was insane. And it was a crash out from Seoul where she was just like,

the next episode, the next morning when she talks with him and was just fucking screaming at him. And he was just like sitting there being like, yeah, okay, okay. I was like, I mean, I understand this crash out from her, frankly. Totally, dude. Okay, I want to talk about the vote out because they vote the boy that we do they do the thing like, okay, now these because of the other letters, you guys are getting voted out. I wrote down that like before it even started. I was like, if this isn't Seoul and Caleb obviously, then this is such a fumble and whatever.

And it's not fair to them, but I'm just like, this is the situation. And it sucks and it must blow standing up there. and the boys go soul and she's like, I knew and it's, you know, whatever, whatever. So then the girls, when they first went like, did the one and two thing on Caleb and Gabe and it was a tie. I was like, is this even a conversation that you would do this? And I thought that was just good reality TV editing. I was like, oh, it's obviously Caleb, but they wanted to give it a little drama. And then they actually go Gabe. And dude, the, I have two questions. One, it's like, it's not like this is a submitted pick that they've like handed to Ariana on paper, you know?

So the fact that the girls went second and didn't just adjust. Like even if they picked Gabe and then the boys are like, we're keeping Jen. How do they not just quick huddle and like, okay, obviously we should just change our answer. Because like that would be insane to rip this couple apart after they just wrote each other two love letters. But they just don't. And then dude, like I just want your guys take because that was fucking bonkers. and I have never loved the boys more than at the end of, I think that was 14,

in the beginning of 15, when they were like, this makes no fucking sense, you are all fucking stupid, and I will not hear another word about it. You're not getting breakfast. Yeah, I was like,

yes, dude, that was incredible. So what was your guy's reaction when Gabe got bad? I was surprised about how Jen was so like, well, Sean, give a shit.

Agree, dude. There was like, the episodes leading up to that. I feel like Gabe, was it Gabe asking her for a chat, which was so funny, like, they're in a couple. And Gabe was like, hey, can we go talk? And I was like, oh, my God, is he about to, like, dump her? But then he literally just sat with her to be like this. I think you're awesome. And like, I have a lot of feelings for you and I'm having so much fun with you. I was like, that was so sweet. And such a switch up from like horny boy Gabe in the

beginning of when he was introduced. And then, Sean, you're absolutely right. I expected that to cut to Jen and see her devastating. She was just like, oh, damn. Bummer. I thought they were going to be one of the most loved couples. I thought they were going to be a saved couple. That's how they're so tight. We're going to pick them. And then they didn't get picked.

And then they gas gave. And then Jen goes, I don't care. That was my first love island moment of this season for me where I was like, what in the fuck just happened? I was very surprised by that, for sure. I did love the reactions. So like, first of all, sending out sincere to give the speech of why

they're taking soul behind the shit and putting a bullet in her head was crazy work. Like making sincere do that was crazy. I'm surprised she didn't hit him. Dan, next ep, I'm going to see. I wrote this down. Next ep, I think it was Trinity. Fuck, I wonder if I can find this. Somebody goes, one of the girls goes to the guys.

I can't believe you guys made sincere say that. And then they don't answer. Maybe they didn't just got edited out. But I was like, someone would answer that, dude. Why did you make him do that? Well, but it's either like, that is either a, the producers were like, sincere, you have to do this. And then they also made someone say that for the drama or it genuine.

Because if that just genuinely happened, these guys are fucking, they're also villains. Like, that is crazy. The guys, they just know what makes good television. Yeah, they just know what makes good television. Because they have Corbin. Yeah. He's the videography. He does what he's doing.

He's a storyteller. Yeah. And Mel is just sliding them the script, dude. It's unbelievable. the decision to vote out Sol was correct and I think what you're getting at and Sean I want your take on this I think what you're getting at Chris

is like they should have voted out Caleb as well and I think I agree and I actually read somewhere I think it was like on Twitter or something someone was reacting to this and I never thought about it like this but someone was like Soul and Caleb should have been voted out because they failed as bombshells.

The whole point of bombshells is to come in and blow up a situation. A couple. Yeah. Soul came in, she temporarily blew up a couple and then failed and they came back. Caleb came in, temporarily blew up a couple, and then they came back. And it was like, I actually liked the take that was like, if you're a bombshell on this show, you've got to know you're coming in there to disturb the piece and either you succeed in disturbing the piece or you're gone. Like you don't get another change. You don't get another change. You're a to like, oh, a new bombshell comes in and now the bombshell will get together.

Like, no, get out here. And I was actually kind of like, oh, you know what? I've never thought about Love Island that way. And I think that's actually like how it should be. Like if you are if you were a bombshell, like if you're not in a couple by the end of two, it's almost like you should be automatically kicked off. There's a couple of things with this show

that I think should be a little bit harder with the rules. I mean, for one, like the challenges, most of them are parted. And they're all like, they're all bloating slime. It's like, oh, you're going You're going to play garden chess. We sludge you. Get slog.

And everyone's still like, whoa! And it's like this is like your eighth time getting Nickelodeon slime on us. And it's, Sean, the challenge should be like, what is that? You should, the hideout should be, hey, who comes first here gets the hideout. And it comes last year is up for eviction. You know, that's like, that should be the challenges. And I know it seems silly to be basing who's like, who gets to survive on Love Island based on like who can like kiss with a football. between them, but it's also like the whole premise

of the show is silly. So let's just like lean into this a little bit more. And can we come up with a better punishment than the fucking slime? I'm seeing, I think of like, how many people are there, like 12? This is like episode 15. We've seen like 140 slimes. A hundred percent.

Sean, it's like actually, on the last episode, the Prince Charming episode, when they, it's not even like a challenge. They literally go in there and just with a sword stab balloons that then slimes them. And And like later the poison apple is also slime. I was laughing out loud because I was like, so we're just, yeah, we're on double dare here.

The slime inside the football thing. I was like, this is so, like, there's so many challenges you can make are based around the sport of soccer. And they couldn't think of anything other than, I don't know, fill the fucking thing with slime. I don't know. Yeah, fill this like plastic ball with slime. It's so lazy. It's so lazy. And yeah, they should have like, they should have better breakfast materials.

okay Chris collect yourself and say what you have to say the hot dog one too Sean where they're like mustard ketchup mustard oh yeah and I'm like why

why are you doing it and Chris that was like they're getting bucockeed by like ketchup and mustard they're just like randomly doing like the leg up and then it's just like

the whole like a lot of this is clearly there's the producers there's a producers who have fetishes and we're leaning into that. We have what fetishes are clearly on display and we have slime fetish is clearly on display.

I mean they stopped doing like normal sexy lingerie in like episode three and that was like just kink clothing. It is. Holy hell. So to go back to the voting out one of my top moments and I'm not I'm not trying to pick on

Kenzie here. but I loved how after, it's at the beginning of this latest episode, Chris, when the guys were, like, they all get together and they're like, all right, let's like have our reasoning here. When the guys were like, if we use your logic, we would have voted out Kenzie. And like the girls were like, what? And I was actually like, I, in my mind, I was like, Kenzie might get voted out here because they could have been like, dude, Kenzie comes in, Zach stands on red and doesn't

choose her. She mopes around. She then jerks around Sean for, you know, several days. And then he gets voted out. And then Corbin is the new guy. So she's just like, oh, that's the easy option because Corbyn is here. And then the second Caleb gets brought in, she's like, everyone automatically has to set Caleb up with me, even though I've been making out with Corbyn and then makes out with both of them. Like, she was just as promiscuous and just as lustful as Gabe. Also, she doesn't know how vision tests work. and was gaslighting people. This is my second gaslight of the week, Sean. This was incredible.

That was awesome. And also, she was saying, oh, I never dated a younger guy before, which is exactly what she was complaining about. I think it was it Sean was like, oh, you're not my typical type. Like, the hypocrisy coming out of this woman every episode. All time, Sean. She's all time.

She just told Caleb that she has 20, he goes to, I have 2013, vision. And she goes, I have 20, 30, and that's actually better because it's completely backwards. Like, she's like, I can see at 30 feet, but you can see at 20. And I was like, and then didn't, didn't she try to invoke, like, nursing school too? Yeah. Like, dude. She was just like, you're wrong. I went to nursing school. And I'm like, right? Where they invented an eye test, right? I had it mixed up. And now he's going to go through his life with incorrect, being misinformed. And it's all because of, until he watches this episode of, of the Empty Nitters Love Island

Review. Correct. And then justice will come on here. We'll do an eye test and we'll test it with the best eye. That should be a challenge. Dude, Yeah. Seeing Sean, she's with Corbyn and she goes, I like listening to rain to fall asleep and he goes, white noise. And she goes, that's not white noise. And he goes, what do you think the ocean is?

And she goes, not white noise. And I'm like, I have to, I googled it. I was like, that is definitely white noise. I googled it. And the only definition of white noise is that it hits like a multitude of frequencies that the human ear, like, which is, which is rain, which is waves, which is. Yes. She's so overconfident. She's out of control right now.

Dude, I'm telling you, she's becoming the villain before our very eyes. Like, I was like, I was the biggest team Kenzie guy ever. And she's just like, she's out of control out here. She's drunk with power. She's all-time gaslights. And I, so I also wrote down, I loved how, so after that, the kickout, four of the boys went to talk about the decision, for the girls went to talk about the decision.

Kenzie and Corbyn went and had their own conversation. and then I forget there was like two other people who went somewhere and did something else, but whatever. Corbin calls out Kenzie immediately in that moment. And I was like, fucking rights, dude. Like he was like, hey, just so you know, like the guys were talking about voting you out. And like, don't get mad at me, but I'm just saying like you have behaved promiscuously as well. And she fucking denies it to him.

So her couple. Like she was just like, no, no. I haven't been, I haven't done any of this. And I'm like, dude, we got to, like, you want me back on your team, girl. Like, you got to start owning your actions. And I, I'm worried. I'm worried about her, man. She's, like, again, she's drunk with power.

Big time with you on that, yeah. In fairness, if she wasn't doing that, almost no one on the island would be. And the show would just be watching a bunch of happy couples not talking to each other. So I'm happy to, I'm going to give props. She knows what makes good television too. Yep. Yeah, she does. We need her. Dude, she's a star. She's an absolute star.

Like, everything, everything she does is, like, she's witch-eyeing and she's dancing. Like, she's great for TV. She's amazing content. But she needs to get her eyes tested again. Immediately. She clearly needs to do another eye test. Yeah. Yeah. So the last, or not the last things, but the next elements I have are, is my last thing about

Kenzie that next morning when she then like went and sat on the dock by herself and was like saying words of affirmation and being like a URB. I was like dude are you were we playing like victim card here now because of the like what is happening. But let's get into the latest episode. The big moments were we had the the Prince Charming thing was in this latest episode, right? Yeah, I think so. Latest episode wasn't that action packed honestly. Like the one before was the big shit. Yeah, you know, for sure. But we had Caleb, Sean, to get back to. what you mentioned way earlier. Caleb pulling Kada for a chat

was a big moment. Discuss. I think he realizes he needs to get with somebody. And I think that given that you know, after the whole kissing thing from the Prince Charming thing, he was like, well, here's somebody who's clearly interested, because Zach was right that

Kayla was really kind of like maybe a little bit too excited about some of the princes coming by. So it seems like, well, here's something we're not starting off from total zero, like we kissed. So this seems like this is a good opportunity for me to get in there with somebody. And also,

you know, obviously Cada's beautiful as well. And he said it was like, who initially caught his eye when she walked in. Yeah. So, so yeah,

I think what's going to happen is that there's going to be some turbulence, but it's going to be really interesting seeing how Zach navigates this way, disturbing the brohood. Yeah. All the guys. Because it was,

he's a jealous boy. He is. He's a jealous boy. I didn't like that comment from her. She was like, good, be jealous. It shows me like me. And I was like, oh, god. They're young.

They're young and they're having fun. Yeah. All right. Do you guys want to get into our top quotes? I want to get you some, a couple other things before the words. Just one of some stuff I wanted to bring up to you guys. I'll go through. We said most of them already.

Okay, I'm saving that one for quotes. Oh, dude, Zach, a couple times in this week in a challenge. would like completely toss someone under the bus, usually Casey. You know, he'd be like, we're pissing this because of this. And also, I just wanted to say Casey is in love with soul. And then after, he had a comment to Keita in a chat after where he was like, God, I feel like I keep getting everyone in trouble with to these challenges. But you know, I just got to be real.

And I was like, do you have to be? Yeah. Do you have to sewer everybody in challenges for no reason? Like, I assure you you don't. You don't have to do that. That was insane, dude. when people are getting dumped off of the island why aren't people throwing more spanners into the works here

like even just lying just being like you know Casey actually hugged up with soul and then just like walk off on that and then just watch the chaos ensue that's such a good call shot that's Sean that's what Sol should have done on her way out that's what she should have been like yeah she should have been like anyway uh Zach fucked Kenzie

and just throw a grenade in there and walk out I have some Trinity goat moments three in a row here one she was the only one who said she's given a foot job and she you know she's doing the foot thing and I was like god dude my queen you're in the seat

I am now dude if that's how this is gonna fucking roll I am now if she wants to bring the slime out Sean bring the slime out she can slime me head to toe Chris finding finding out Bryce is a massive foot dude and Trinity is is clearly a freak I was like These two are made for each other.

And then she goes, there's one time where she's getting ready. And she's just going like this. And she goes, sometimes I'd just be touching my titties. I was like, yeah, hell yeah. I love that. And then this one too, she had, Bryce was like talking about music. And he's like, I play trombone and shit, you know. And he was just like sharing their interests.

And he goes, because, you know, we should know more about each other because like someday we'll be, we'll be ugly. And she goes, I ain't being ugly. Dude, and then he goes like this. Yeah, me neither. She won him over immediately. God, that was awesome. I wrote I just love how Gabe and Jen are fucking not stop. You said that earlier, Dan, but just like, they literally just bang the whole show.

It's so funny. And like, every time it cuts her, she's just like, yeah, like he just, he loves touching me. Wink, wink, wink. And I'm like, yeah, dude. What were you here? It's so funny that people are waiting for the hideaway. And Gabe and Jenner just like this, we're just going to fuck in front of all of you. whatever, dear.

Yeah, any flat surface on Love Island has been desiccated. It's not safe. It's not safe. Yeah, you don't want to sit down. They keep bringing benches out of challenges. The producers are like, no, don't let him see it. It's like, oh, man, they slimed this one already. Jesus Christ.

After dark, Netters after dark. Dan, I wanted to reiterate to you how insane the lyrics are in the song choices. Like, it is as if they are AI generated. No, dude, you pointed that out last episode, and there was, I forget what moment, you, maybe you can remember what moment it was, because clearly what is making you say this is the same moment that I heard as well. I was like, I was looking around my house as if I was in the Truman Show looking for a cat, because I was like, this is not a real song. There was no way this is a real song. The song was like, I hate to walk away from you, Anaya, because soul is him. it's like the songs in paddington where it's like take your soap and water like it's like

describing what's literally happening in the scene i was like this is fake dude this is not a real song a paddington pole in this economy i love this economy dude this is the first and only time paddington and love island have been compared that was so good um and then uh there was when when right after like they had to vote people out uh and they hadn't picked zach yet zach goes he uh He goes, man, I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Bryce. Like, he was literally, because he goes, if America didn't pick Kada and myself, I was kind of like, it's okay. We'll just leave together. But I wasn't ready to say bye to Bryce.

And I was like, that is so awesome, dude. Like, they're such boys. And that immediately was followed by Bryce walking in in the morning and pulling his pants out and going, girth check. And Zach looks down and he's like pretty good. And then later, he was, remember that conversation they had by the fire? He was like, that was long, dude. That was really long. That was like my full boner.

and Zach was like or Bryce was like yeah it was kind of like a semi you're like they're literally just like dick it was so great also and like saying like I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Bryce

when like was that in jeopardy you know what I mean like I don't understand what that moment was I was like yeah when you love something that much even just the thought of the slightest risk

of it being taken from you is upsetting genuinely Sean that's what's going on this was if if season 8 of Love Island wants to take the world by storm, Zach and Bryce need to walk away together and win.

That's what I'm so with you, dude. Everyone can get behind. Everyone, dude, it's so true. Everyone on the internet. It's so true. And then my last thing before the awards is, this must be true, but do you guys think the producers make them ask each other

how they're feeling about stuff? Or do they, are they genuinely curious? Yeah. 100%. I was like, how is there no comments? Like, how about the Knicks? That's, like, no one. Wouldn't it cares about anything else.

100%. Like I think they must be instructed like, hey, like guys, you can't just be chilling by the pool, like pull people for chats, like to ask out. Because it's like every time they're like this, so how are you feeling about the challenge? Like that is a problem. No one fucking talks that way, you know? I wish they would mix in some normal ones at least though, because obviously they're having normal conversations at other times.

I'm like, just let me see them actually be friends, you know, and interact. Yeah. That would be sick. Okay, let's take a quick ad break. and then we're coming back with our awards. All right, everybody. The weather is finally starting to warm up. I know it's nice all the time in L.A.,

All right, now let's get into our awards here. let's start with our favorite quote oh okay did you guys write some down if not i could give you mine i got a couple i got a couple though okay uh dan you start we'll go around so we're done no sean start

um i was curious earlier you said that uh we did episode 10 in the last episode i don't think we did episode 10 was this episode okay maybe this episode okay i thought so too all right episode episode 10 was the uh the after son right oh that's what it was yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah, that's correct. That's correct. So, and my favorite quote comes from after his son when Sean's on the bed and he reads what the mayor has said about him leaving the police department for reality TV show. And it's this fuming, like, just disavow Sean entirely.

And Sean takes a beat and goes, I guess he's upset. And that's basically it. And I love it. I laughed out loud from that. I was like, you fucking think? Yeah, dude. Yeah. But Sean's like, listen, like, you know, it is what it is.

He's kind of pissed up. Can you imagine that energy with like any of the women on Love Island? Yeah, right. It's like, I guess she's mad. That is incredible. So funny. Okay, me next, Dan? Yeah, go.

Okay, one of them I had was this came right after Zach and Kada did the, like, what if we bang and then someone else comes in thing? And she goes, she goes, so you don't, you don't want to about having sex? And he goes, no, I do want to. If we were dating at this point, we probably would have done it like 10 times. And it was literally just like the kid who's like, I've felt fucking booves before. Like I've got many nipples I've seen. I've seen fucking 20 nos. We've had, we have sex all the time.

It's non-stop. We put it done it like 10 times. Just killed me. I was like, dude, it's okay. That's awesome. You bang. It's fine. Okay, my first one comes from Jen.

And it's like a moment where she's talking about her and Gabe. and how they are together. And she was like, yeah, like, I'm just like, this is like, it's kind of how it is with me and guys. Like, every time I meet a guy, the first thing they always do is they're always just like, oh my God, you're so hard. Like, I just want to touch you all over the place.

And I was like, in that moment, I was like, have men said that to you upon the initial meeting? Because if so, put them in prison. Like, what the fuck are we talking about here? That's the way. women all the time. What are you talking about? I knew she heard that from you, Sean.

I was like, that's a Sean line. The way she was like, yeah, guys just come up to me and they just say like, I just want to touch you. Dude, oh my God. That fucking blew me away. I could not believe that. Amazing. Amazing. Sean, do you have another one?

Another quote. I mean, I spoke about it earlier, but I did laugh out loud as well as when I was a kid. I was really creative. I used to like, yeah, dude, that in that moment. This tournament to rocket ships. Perfect. That moment is all time. I only have one more.

My one more is, it's actually like at the end of last episode. Trinity is talking to Anaya and she mentioned, she's like, yeah, Casey was one of the only guys who wanted to keep soul around. Just like, which was the only time I've ever seen Trinity kind of like so in the mud. Yeah.

But also like that's her girl. So I get it. Like she's just like being only. Producer note. Do you think the producer put Trinity up to it to go like, because obviously, they had, they tried their best to make it look like they were on rocks and then when the letters came out it was like

oh I guess the whole thing was totally overblown and we're probably only seeing it from those only times that they talked about it and now they're like well fuck we can't have the leftover couple from episode one be the people that win this you need to break them up and no I agree like that's there might have been something but I actually have something to say about that but um Trinity tells Anaya that

And then Anaya's like rolling her eyes and she's like, God, what the fuck's his deal? And she goes, fucking Captain Save a Ho over here. Yeah, dude. That was good, Dan. That got me too. Captain Save a ho is hilarious. That was awesome. And I was like, oh, incredible.

Dude, I had two more. And they're the same thing, though. One was in one of the apps, you jump in on a conversation out by the pool and they're talking about butt stuff. And Kenzie and Caleb are like, I've never done it. And Trinity goes, I tried. That shit hurt. I was like, well, she says, I haven't done it either.

I tried. It hurt. Yeah, yeah. So good. And then later, dude, when Zach gets back from the hideaway, he goes, we did everything. And Bryce goes, what do you mean? You did everything? You went in her ass and shit?

I was like, dude, Bryce. Fucking rocks. Bryce rocks. He's like, Bryce and Trinity are the greatest people in the world. Like they just like say whatever's on their mind. You went in her ass? He was like, no, dude. He had sex.

Oh, incredible. Amazing. Okay. Okay. Let's do best friend quickly. Okay. I'll start. Dude, I don't know if this counts.

I was literally going to say Gabe, who was my villain last week, because he truly doesn't give a fuck in a good way. It's what you said about Kenzie earlier, Sean. Like, this is the show. Like, right? You got to do this. And he's so him. And it's awesome.

I actually really liked Gabe's personality and seeing his emotions. Now that he's been deleted, I don't know if that counts. And if it doesn't, I will say Trinity is the goat. I'll allow that Gabe pick. When we do recaps where people have been deaded from the island, I think they're still allowed to be involved in selections. Okay, give me Gabe. John?

I'm going to go with Zach. The, you know, he's pretty jealous. And I think that he's going to have his woman stuff. stolen from him. So he's going to need some friendship. From you. I think I, I know he's getting it all from Bryce, but I think he's a, I think he's a dude's a dude in many ways. Yeah. So I think Zach would be my best friend for sure. Dude, the Sean Bryce, Zach. Holy hell. Would go fucking hard as hell. That would go hard. In many ways. Yeah. In many ways. Um, three ways, some would say. Um, my, my best friend is going to be

Corbin. I think, I love both of your picks. I think Corby is like low-key one of the most genuine people in the villa. I like, I worry for him

because as we've said, I think Kenzie is being a little selfish year, but again, Kenzie's playing the game. But I feel like Corbyn is playing the game in a very gentlemanly way. When he was with Mel and like Mel was sleeping out in soul ties,

like he was never complaining about it, every chat they had he'd be like listen we're in a couple like i'm down to explore i am letting you know though that i have feelings for kensi and i like he was always so above board and like i said i loved when he called out kensi because he was like hey like we're doing this like i'm gonna keep it real with you um i just think he's like he's pretty straightforward and i dig that same dude i'm so with you um okay villain or yeah villain is that yeah let's do yes but again this is not our least favorite islander this is someone who we feel is behaving a bit villainous Sean you had strong feeling so let's let Sean start yeah I think I dibed sincere um you know he

in the words of the love islanders you know I don't like how he moves yeah but uh but I'm also kind of like I mean maybe you're just nostalgic for the year 2016 because he has that style still but the the I I'm glad he's there because he's going to be super entertaining and he's kind of the only guy who's being super entertaining

but the I don't know go harder Sean go harder go harder they're real humans so I can't I know I think he's I think he's sketchy I think he's sketchy but you know what actually you know what I already dips in here

I'm gonna pivot mine just to just to contradict yours changing my answer to Caleb I don't like how he was moving in on Keda I don't I you know he had a lot of moral currency from me because he was getting cooked for like a week but the now

you can't you can't do that you can't just go in yeah right and it was just how he did it it wasn't just like a casual thing it was like they made like a whole scene about it and he sat back there and he had Zach going like you think they're making out do you think they're making it

Do you think they've been back there for a long time? And, you know, that's not cool to do to somebody. Sean, that edit was really tough for Zach. The amount of times that cut to Zach being like, but seriously, do you think they could be kissing in there? It's like, give the guy a break, dude. Give the guy a break. He was, yeah.

But yeah, I think, sorry to have a wishy-washy answer on it, but I think Caleb might be my villain of the week just because of that one scene. And I'll let sincere away this week. He survives. Dan, you want to go? If Sean is going to let Sincere off the hook, then I'm taking Sincere. Cincere is, again, it's amazing for the show.

And I love how, I mean, every episode I find myself being like, what are these two going to do? And my last episode, my villainous behavior was Mel. And they finally get back in a relationship. And then, like, immediately in that first game, Mel is like making out with Corbyn. again and I was and I know everyone's yeah yeah but I'm like these people are addicted to the time bomb damn yes he is dude no joke that's it like that's what I

addicted to drama crazy yep um and since sincere there was one moment with sincere where I was actually being like dude and I think it was when maybe when the girls voted off Gabe it just kept cutting to

sincere and he was like very audibly being like what the fuck are they talking about what the fuck are you do you remember what I'm what scene. And I was like sincere, shut the fuck up, dude. Like,

just let, let, like, let this happen. But he is just like, yeah, he's addicted to drama, dude.

He is, he is, I think he is, I think he is, villainous behavior big time. Um, I was going to go, and this is,

you're right, it's not villain in that way. I mean, the answer is probably sincere. But I was, I wanted to say I wasn't, I didn't like a, and I was,

maybe your best friend, Dan, last week. She was. Really high last week. I did not like her at all this week, only from the TV standpoint. Like, I actually think she's just really boring. And I was like, I don't, I'm getting nothing here except like you and this like manufactured drama. Like, yeah. But I have to, have to, last minute swoop villain go Kenzie specifically for her reaction to not thinking she is the girl Gabe. Like they were like, you did this. You did this and worse. And she like lost her mind. And I was like, Just say, yeah, no shit I did.

So, Genzy, villain, good day. Yeah, she did the classic. She heard something she didn't want to hear, so she just kept going, no, no. And it was like, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh. Yeah, but God, I love her still. I love everyone on the show. Okay, my top two couples,

actually, I'm going to start with my bottom two. Okay, yeah, good. My bottom two couples, and we'll always say, we love all the, I genuinely, all these people rock, and this is just this is what America does. I'm going to go sincere and Mel

because I do not, I don't, I can't believe that that roller coaster is over. So I don't feel strongly about that. And then here's one, kind of picking back off what you just said, Chris, I'm going Casey and Anaya.

Dude, Dan, I'll just chime in because those are my two couples also. Exactly the same. Casey and Anaya are simply not meant to be together. I think Anaya, Naya is totally right that she should not have to feel like a secondary or a safe option. And I do believe that's what Casey's doing to her.

The fact that Casey pulled Soul for a chat as she got bounced from the island. I could not believe that. I was like, dude, you are like, you're just not in here. It also starts to feel like Casey's like a horny dude who wants to be like making out and pulling Gabe and Jen clapping cheeks under the sheets moves. And Anaya's like, dude, I'm not into hooking up in front of a ton of people. Sorry, that's just who I am. And I'm like, respect that.

but this is probably not going to work. I think Sean's camera just died. Oh, that's bad. But, like, to me, they're just not meant to be together. I think a bombshell needs to break them up because, like, this is, it's just, it's just not working, dude. It's just not working. Dude, I totally, same reason.

I don't even need to reiterate. Same reasoning they are, she keeps going, I'm over this Casey thing. I'm over them. I'm over the Casey and I, a fake drama. Sean, who are your bottom two? I think my bottom two is probably going to be given again the cliffhanger ending of the last episode.

I think Keda and Zach are looking very, very, very rocky. I think that's fair. I don't have high hopes for them to stick it out to the end, which is a tragedy because up until that last scene, they looked really, really solid. And even during the Prince Charming makeout thing, he handled it as well as a jealous boyfriend could. I think my other bottom, I think I'd also have to put as Melanie and sincere as well.

And they're just also really boring as a couple, I think. Then I think, guys, we're all in agreement, or correct me if I'm wrong, but my top two are, without a doubt, number one is Bryce and Trinity. I mean, they are just like, dude, I also saw something on Twitter and someone was like, I love the little moments that just cut to snippets of Bryce and Trinity just talking about everything going on in the villa. And it's like, those are the recaps that I love. Like, the way they react to everyone else is so awesome. And then weirdly enough, after everything we've been saying, I'm going Kenzie and Corbyn because at the end of the day, for the, you know, however their movements have been,

I actually think those two really fuck with each other. And like, I think that they are catching real feelings. And I'm like, let's see if anything disturbs it. But I think they actually really like each other. And I'm like, okay, I'd like to see this go well. Dude, my second one, and I'm doubling down here, pour it out. My second one, I'm technicality going Gabe and Jen because I actually, I loved it. Right until he was ripped away from her, I was like, this is awesome.

It was just a fun Love Island couple banging every night, doing whatever the fuck they wanted. It was great. Couple kids. I love that pick. Honestly, they probably would have been in mine if, like, I thought that, but then Sean made a great point. Like, Jen just didn't seem like she cared that. That did rattle me. That did rattle me very much.

At the time, it looked like she cared a lot, but it turns out she didn't care about him. She just cared about someone. Someone bad. Someone touching her. Yeah. It was what she really wanted. My top two are the same as yours, Dan. Trinity and Bryce, I think, are the most solid and reliable, I think, to make it to the end.

And then I think Kenzie and Corbin, I mean, they were, for the, like, two hours that they were apart from each other, all they could do was talk and compare their new couples with the... with themselves and a couple. And then the first stuff they got, they recoupled with each other. So I think they actually like each other a lot. Did you guys? I'm also remembering a scene with those two. Did you guys get like flashbacks of being young and dumb

and the way that you interact with people you're interested in? There's a moment where Corbyn like pulls Kenzie for a chat. I think it was like right before they had like that super intense makeout where she was just like going like this and she was like, you ignore me. you do is ignore me all day long. I was like, you two are clearly about to make out and you're doing this like

pretend fight thing. And I was just like, oh. And then she goes, I love kissing you. I was like, shut up, dude. Oh, it was awesome. It was like, just like to be young and in love, dude. I have never been young nor dumb, nor has anyone ever loved me. So I can't relate. But you have loved. You have loved deeply shot.

You've seen movies and it looked like that. The beginning phase in a movie for sure. That is just until we get Bryce and Zach in the studio to meet you. Exactly. Will happen. And then we're out. The Bryce, Zach, Sean Pod is going to fucking do numbies.

Numbies, man. It's unbelievable. All right. Well, great, great stuff from Love Island season eight. Unbelievable. We're going to dive back in next week. Enjoy this recap as you watch the latest episode. And here we go.

Getting ready for another week of this beautiful, beautiful action. Can't wait to see you next time.
