Leaving one recent arrival All right, this doesn’t happen in the real world. in a state of confusion. they call it a love triangle. Yeah, I was in it.

You read mine? Yeah, next. Uh I just want to get Okay, so Put a lineup. This is great, dude. I am loving Keira and Sam together. Isn’t it? Yeah. They’re so cute. They’re such a good couple. I think they’ve got good banter together and that may strike something. like each other’s comfort zone. Yeah. That’s what you sort of feel though.
Like I feel like Blake’s my comfort zone. If I hang out with him, we know we’ve got each other’s back. Yeah, he’s your comfort zone, mate. Ali looks good. So, morning after the rose ceremony, waking up in paradise, I certainly feel a little bit more relaxed because the guys now have the power. I feel like the vibe is very different this morning.
Like seven guys, seven girls, no one really tried. Yeah. So, the guys have kind of backed off and being a little cruisy. Well, I think they’ve been Yeah, I haven’t seen Jake all day, which He’s got his rose. He’s like, “See you, mate.” Do you reckon if like there’s more girls that walk through, then we’re going to get a little I I feel like I would be in trouble.
Whereas some of you are pretty keen to spend it with each other. Yeah. Yeah. To be honest, I do regret giving Jake a rose. I just can’t see myself with him. But, everyone is paired up. Luke and Lisa are starting to couple up. There’s Leah and Mac. Michael and Tara are getting along. Uncle Sam and Keira.
You’re very good at this. So, what am I going to do? This is horrible. Well, that was really nice. You want a drink? Um I’ve got some water. I’m just going to keep going. Next stop, do you want to send someone Do you want to do someone else? Michael, you’re next. I was hanging by the pool today and I saw Keira bring out these big tarot card things.
I am quite spiritual, so I thought, you know what? Let’s see what the universe has in store for me in paradise. Now is the time to touch your power for its heat and the flame will ignite your passion. Ah, okay. Which will propel you forward in countless ways. So, what does that mean? It’s all about honesty and fun situations as well. Yeah.
I don’t know about everyone else, but I actually do want to find someone, whether it’s here or not, but that’s part of my life journey. And you know, if there’s interest here, I’m definitely going to go for it. How you going? All right? Guess what? I found something. OH. WHAT IS THAT? GOT A DATE CARD. I WAS GETTING MY ANGEL CARD READING and we were interrupted by a date card.
They’re coming. I was really hoping it was my name on the date card. Wanted to take Tara out and explore paradise and get away from the group and just have some one-on-one time. So, who do we think’s on this date card, guys? No, I didn’t Maybe you guys Do you think it’s a dude, a girl or a guy? The guy. The guy.
Here’s an idea, read it out. Yes. Why? THE WRONG WAY AROUND. LOOK, I THOUGHT IT WAS ME, TOO. I JUST DIDN’T WANT to say anything. How terrible form is that? Who you taking, for God’s sake? She’s not taking me. I already know. We had a talk.
I’ve spent enough time with you. Look, I’ve got Sam. We get along. But, it was really nice to talk to Michael. It just felt right. I already know who I want to take. Yeah. Hang on a minute. Yeah. Really? Yeah, SHE’S TAKING MICHAEL. YEAH, ACTUALLY WAS LIKE REALLY enjoying our chat. I’m like, “Oh, I’D BE LUCKY.” KISSING ALREADY. BYE. IT’S JUST GOING TO HANG OUT.
I think it’d be fun. Yeah. To see you in a romantic setting, Michael. Let’s see if we can There’s anything there. Look, you just don’t know what’s going to happen in paradise. Michael and I could be the next couple. They’re so cute. You’re cool with that? Yeah, I am. Yeah, good. I thought you would be. So chill.
I thought you would be. I haven’t even kissed you. Yeah. I just talked to you. Yeah. You’re good toss. I know. Good toss. Yeah. Don’t even follow me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don’t think everyone was too surprised that Keira chose Michael. I did have a look at Tara’s face. I think she is a little upset. Did Michael ask you? No. No. He he’s talking to me in the house.
My friendship in the No. That’s her word, just then. We’re not friends in No. We’re friends in That didn’t happen with us though. Okay. Yeah. But Yeah. Yeah. I don’t I don’t even need to talk. I know, exactly. It would have been nice to say, “Hey, is it cool?” I have been spending a lot of my time with Michael.
I did give him a rose last night. Um so, a little respectful check-in would have been appreciated. And how are you feeling about the love of your life going off with the love of my life? Oh god, I I’m just Oh my god, of course. Oh, it’s just Do you want to have a little session? Do you want to have a go? Let’s have a session.
Tara’s and I might have a chat. No, let’s do I need a We’re dealing with pain. I’m going to lie on the bed, okay? Yeah. All right. All right. Where am I supposed to lie? I need therapy, too. The girl that gave me a rose and the guy that Tara had given a rose to, they were out on a date together.
So, we were both kind of raw, as well, cuz we weren’t sure what it meant by having our two boos out on a date. I’m distraught. It’s a So, what are you hoping for now? Like cuz you’re in an interesting predicament. Yeah. Did you expect Jake to give you a rose? I expect nothing from Jake. Flo was the last one to give out a rose.
She ended up choosing Jake. You know, which is does kind of make sense cuz they do have a bit of a history. They go back a fair bit. So, one minute they’re like best friends, next minute they’re at each other cuz I think he’s a bit undecided on Flo. But, yeah, it it is still a bit tense, a bit weird.
And I am appreciative of the fact that Jake took me on a date and it was super nice and it was lovely and He was thinking about taking a few other people, but he ended up going with you. It wasn’t like, “I’ll take you straight away.” Well, but then he says to me and he says to me like, “I always wanted to take you. It was never even a question.
” Like you’re full of Of course he did. I received a rose yesterday. Have I seen him today? No. Yesterday he was following me around like a puppy dog. Today he doesn’t feel the urge anymore. I’m pissed off at Jake, but I can’t say that I’m surprised cuz obviously I knew him from outside.
I just know that Jake and I are never going to happen. I’m not feeling it. He never does what he says. He is 31, acts like a 21-year-old and I’m never going to end up with that guy. I’m expecting another guy to come in though. Like there will be more girls, but I’m expecting another guy.
There’ll be another guy guy, for sure. Hopefully there is another guy that comes in that Exactly. takes a fancy to. Wait and see, hey? Yeah. So nice. It’s bogan, yeah. I’m actually really excited to spend time with you outside of the resort and actually We’re going to ride horses. Oh my god. Who is that? It’s so romantic. Oh, they’re beautiful.
If we’re going horse riding, we might fall in love. If if it’s going to happen, that’s when it’s going to happen. Horse back. I know. So, in heading into my first date with Wait, I was going to say Tara. Um heading into my first single date and it’s with Keira, obviously. I don’t know if there’s potential for romance.
She’s not the kind of girl I would normally go for, but I’m going to go in open-minded. We’ll see what happens. Have you guys been on horses before? No, never. Michael’s never been horse riding. I’ve never been horse riding. We get to do it together. It was so romantic. I was like, “Is this really happening?” Hats.
We have our own hats? Safety first. I think this is it. He’s got Suzy in sombreros. Can I have a look at what I look like in your glasses? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Michael and I look absolutely ridiculous, but you know what? I’m going with it. I don’t care. I’m not letting anything ruin this day. Babe, we look so hot right now.
I feel like we’re like Fijian cowboys. And cowgirls. You look pretty good for someone who’s wearing that hat. I think it’s working. I I did ask for a helicopter, but I’m happy with the hat. Of course you did. Of course you did. This definitely beats sitting around the pool. I know. Isn’t that a bit romantic? I think I think I need two hands.
This way. I’m always about being honest with people and just to let them know where I’m at. I’ve got a good relationship so far with Tara. I think just enjoy the day, enjoy the beautiful scenery, and maybe later on I’ll just let her know that listen, I think it’s probably best that you know, you look somewhere else.
How do you think Keira and Michael are going? I think they’ll have a lot of fun. Do you reckon there’s a romantic connection there? I don’t, no. I’d kiss myself. I’d think it was the funniest ever. Then I might have to go home then cuz I won’t get a rose. So, there’s a little bit of uncertainty, but I reckon Uncle Sam will give me the rose.
Do you think Keira is Michael’s type? I don’t know if Keira is Michael’s type. Do you think Michael’s Keira’s type? Yeah, I reckon. I reckon. Keira can choose whoever she wants. I’m looking at this as a positive. I guess with Michael gone, I’m going to start talking to the other guys and seeing if there are sparks that I maybe haven’t realized yet.
Are you concerned that Mike might potentially jump ship from wh@tever you guys got going on? Yeah. Is silly to do that. Yeah. Oh, thanks, Uncle Sam. I think the more dates we’ll have, the more shifting it’s going to we’re going to get now that Michael and Keira Keira and that’s what I was about to say.
If Keira and Michael are going out become closer. Are we each other’s rebound? Feels that way at the moment. Yeah. No, but I guess I I’m excited to see what happens in the guys’ room now because Well, guys are going to want to do what they want as opposed to, you know, grab a grab a sure thing. Not saying anyone was a sure thing.
No one is a sure thing, but I think yes, certain dudes felt very safe before this last rose ceremony. So, now yeah, that’s what this is all about is is making sure that you find someone who is the best person for you. Oh my god! What? When I first came in, it looked like everyone was coupled up.
Flo is not coupled up. You don’t think you and Jake could keep going for like that? No, no, no, no, no. I don’t I don’t trust Jake. So, would you be at a point now where you’re just waiting for someone perfect to arrive? Yeah, of course. I’m not going to just settle for for the best of the worst. So, we’re just chilling and I have my fingers crossed that some hot dude will walk through that door, sweep me off my feet, and everything will be all right.
But then Who is that? It is pop plan Jared. I’m Jared. I’m 32 years old. You may remember me from the recent Bachelorette season with Sophie Monk where she broke my heart. In my head, I know you’re everything. But my heart belongs to someone else. Mhm. Uh look, I believe people were either my fan or not my fan at the start.
Well, we’re growing something. Yeah, all right. We did a pop plan, but no one else thought of that idea. Are you happy with this? Are you happy to have grow something with me? Yeah. Now I want to see what’s with else. I have no regrets from that whole entire experience. The guys in Paradise are going to see a whole new Jared.
Some stubble. Um I’m not going to grow it all the way out, but I will be trimming. And I just I want people to see me for who I actually am. I’m pretty cruisy, and I am pretty relaxed, and I can have a lot of fun. Oh my god! OH MY GOD, JARED HERE! HOW ARE YOU? I’M WELL. JARED, I’m Lisa. Lovely to meet you.
Yeah, nice to meet you, too. Come on in. We nearly d1ed when Jared walked in. We were like, no way! Oh, what? It was so funny. No one was expecting Jared to rock up. Taz Get in the rose, Taz. Or we’re all d3ad. When I saw Jared, I just laughed and wanted to run up and give him a hug. Oh my goodness! But first, I needed to give him a pop plan.
I was expecting you guys running in and pushing me into the pool. All right, you’ll love it. It’s great here. It’s great. Uh heaps to catch up on. How good is this place? How are you? Welcome home, Bulla. Thanks for that. Glad to give you wh@tever you want. Jared? Welcome home, Jared. How are you doing? Did you bring us some wine? I was going to bring the wine and then I thought, mhm, I’m going to try and work off that whole wine thing.
Seriously, that’s such a selling point for women. I know. Winery? I’m in. Thank you. Welcome to Paradise, mate. Cheers. Here’s to another cr@zy journey, eh? So, Jared, you’ve got a date card. Oh, yeah. You’ve got a date card. Uh so, basically the date card, it’s it’s for tomorrow. So, I’ve actually got the afternoon and evening to get to know everybody.
But yeah, so say anybody, didn’t It did say anybody. Whoever Jared is giving his date card to better run for cover. As soon as he takes you on a date, he’ll glue himself to your body, and he will never let go. Uh Lisa, could you please give me a like a walk about of the land? Show me what happens and explain to me what’s been going on.
Is that okay? Yeah, of course. Welcome to Paradise. Jared’s got to speak to all the girls here to figure out who’s going to take on a date. I have been hanging out with Luke a lot. I find him really lovely. And he grabbed Lisa for a chat to go sort of see the tour of the Paradise. Hello. Hello. You’re a Melbourne girl? Yes. Yeah.
I thought we could have a chat. Is that all right? And then he’s grabbed Lorena. Have you had a date? Uh I had I came in yesterday and I took Blake out for a date. And then we had a rose ceremony last night. If Jared took Lorena on a date, yeah, I would kind of be a little bit wary because yeah, I’m super keen to Lorena.
Me and Lorena have really good connection. I just know her exact type, and it’s not Jared. It’s not tall and blonde. It’s tall, dark, and handsome. So, how you feeling with um Jared coming in? I’m all right. I You know what? I Yeah, how nice. I warmed to Jared a lot. Like at the end.
But obviously in the initial period, I just thought this guy is a complete nutter. May- maybe like he just doesn’t get the lad1es, so he um covering your badge. I don’t want to I don’t want to bore the out of you. Uh anyhoo, anyhoo. How are you, Blakey? I’m sweet. I was hoping you’d come. I guess he’s just here who he just took Lorena? Yeah. Oh, yeah.
He had a date with Lorena yesterday. Have you had a date yet? No. How have you not been taken on a date? Because I was planning to chat to Michael. I’ve got a date card. I reckon I’m going to take you. Yeah, do you reckon? I reckon I’m going to have fun with you. Yeah, we’ll have a good time. I’m going to leave. It’s all right.
So, it’s interesting when Keira is off on a date with Michael that Tara and Sammy start hanging out just as mates, but I see this weird connection that I never thought these two would actually have at all. I’m having THE BEST DAY. SO, I SAVED YOU, Uncle Sam. Was it just an ant? Yeah. I thought it was a centipede.
When we were talking with the angel cards, I kind of looked at you and I’m like, you know what? Michael’s like exactly my type. Tall, brown eyes, dark hair. You’re literally what my three ex-boyfriends look like. See, traditionally you wouldn’t be like straight up my type. No, you wouldn’t be.
Am I your type now, nice cheeky? I’m having a lot of fun on my date, and I’m actually not surprised. After I spoke to Michael a few times since being here, I’ve you know, I kind of really like who he is. He’s really genuine, and I want to get to know him more. Cute. I do like Michael. I don’t know how much I like him. It’s very early days, but I definitely feel like there’s something there.
I’ll help you. You’ve made a friend. He’s eating your hat. Oh, he’s eating my hat. I think in the situation we’re at, obviously it’s all about roses. You hungry? Give roses to people that you want to stick around with and get to know. You don’t want to mislead people or waste people’s time. Cheers.
Oh, this is nice. Things with Keira at the moment, it’s fun, it’s easy, and it’s light-hearted. And you’re pretty cute. Really? Thank you. But Tara was on my mind. Do you reckon Tara is going to be okay with this date? I don’t know. Should I be concerned? Like You know, at the end of the day, we’re here to talk to and meet people and find out if there’s a connection.
Do you think that there’s anything there with her though? Like It’s really early stages and she was the first person I met in the house. We did have a whole bunch of stuff in common and you know, she’s obviously very beautiful. She’s absolutely stunning. So and she was one of the girls that I was hoping was going to be in here.
And so far so good, to be quite honest with you. She’s she’s you know, really you know, captured my attention and I don’t know what’s going to happen. Yeah. But I’m still staying open just like she is. Yeah. Yeah, Michael mentioned that he does like Tara and fair enough, I get it. But he also said that he he’s enjoying his time with me.
So you know, you can’t put all your eggs in one basket. But we get along, so we know that we’ve got a connection which could grow, but we also know that we’ve got that protection if we need it. good about that. Like I really feel good about that. So um Well, I really like you and I’m glad that you came on this date.
And honestly, if I had a rose here, I’d give it to After my date today with Kira, obviously I’m going to go talk to Tara. First port of call, Tara. You know what? She’s safe. Next. A new person. New arrivals see the boys flocking. Welcome to Paradise. Wow, God’s gift. Like this chick’s an absolute babe, but Jake is frothing.
Who’s ruffled Flo’s feathers? I think over any other chick and that’s exactly what he always does. Jake did say he wanted a new tall blonde. How you going, mate? Do you want to chat with Flo? I play it our way. Come here, how are you here? All right, thanks. Did you recover from your heartbr3ak? Uh yeah, look, I think that I took me a long a lot longer than I thought, probably.
I commend you for dusting yourself off and coming here. Ah, look, I wasn’t going to hide away from it, I don’t think. You’ve developed thick skin. Mate, I had thick skin to start with. And it just made it And it just made it even thicker, but now I’m at the point where I’m like I got to be careful who I try and let in.
Sure. So I’m really hoping I’m ready to fall in love. Uh but I think I’m going to take it a bit easy and just mingle. Oh, but you never know that. Until you try. Hello. Oh Wow. A new person. Hello. Hello. We have a new Hello. Oh, she was too. She was I so wanted her to come in.
Clearly not engaged anymore. Tara. Tara, nice to meet you. What are you thinking, Ali? I am. Yeah. I never watched but I’ve heard of you. You’re a face. I’m Ali and I was on Tim’s season of The Bachelor. You might remember me from the first episode going in for that kiss. Thank you. Well, I’ll I’ll I’ll walk you back downstairs.
Okay, thank you. Which was really cringeworthy or the stage five clinger as you all called me. Grab all of my hair. Do I do I grab And just pull me. you. Very soon. I was in there for a specific reason and I wasn’t letting anything get in my way or stop me. I was fully infatuated.
Thanks for being on my life journey and creating part of me. Thank you. It’s natural. The night that I left the mansion, it was just raw emotion. That’s how I was feeling, broken down. I’ve come to Paradise to find love. Look, every series has got to have a stage five clinger and I found that again.
I don’t mind. Welcome to Paradise. Wow, thank you. Jared. Jared, nice to meet you. Ali has just walked in and that’s all we’re really focusing on right now. Like just Ali. And you got the eyes light up and you got the smile. Wow. God’s gift. Wow. Yep. Jake. Jake. Nice to meet you. Wow.
Ali walked in and straight away it’s guys No blonde bombshell. I think I have to have a test in a minute because Yeah, sounds right. Blake, nice to meet you. Wow, this is so overwhelming. Welcome. We were all like wow, like this chick’s an absolute babe. Jake, look at Jake’s face light up. There’s still time to take your shirt off for Nice to meet you.
Do you want to join? Do you want a beverage? I would love a beverage. I need to loosen up a bit. There’s a few guys that are already very keen to spend some time with her. Newcomer. Is that Jake? Jake, yes. Good work. And so who were you on? Uh Georgia Love season season two. And then how far did you get? Third. Third. We’re same.
We’re same. Same as you. Did you come to as well? This is the third time Jake is frothing. Jake likes her. Yeah, of course he does. He looks like someone from Gold Coast. Oh. Yeah, she does. Yeah, she’s stunning. She looks like Malibu Barbie. Her face doesn’t really move. So we had the rose ceremony last night.
The girls had the power to give the roses. So we have the power this time. guys went home last last night. Yeah, we get to choose this time who stays and who goes. Yeah. She walked straight into the thick of it. Oh my god, so it’s on. It’s on. It’s on. Jake did say he wanted a new tall blonde. That was really smooth.
Was that smooth? I don’t know. Let’s go here. His room service has been delivered. So you came third on Tim’s Tim’s season. Yeah, yeah. Interesting. So what made you come to Paradise? I want a genuine guy. That’s what I want. Like he said I’m going to give you a rose, but he’s frothing over any other chick and that’s exactly what he always does.
I’m definitely worried about Jake because he did say of course I’ll give you a rose back. You’re definitely going to give a rose back and he was following me around like a puppy dog yesterday and Ali walks in and he’s gone. Jake goes from one girl to another. He just doesn’t care. What’s it like in South Australia? It’s the one one state I haven’t been.
Really? Yeah, I’m like I’m a big wine drinker as well and I haven’t been. Oh yeah, they’ve got amazing wine regions. McLaren Vale and Barossa. Barossa, yeah. Yeah. Dying to go. So I needed to I needed a tour guide for the wines. Yeah, I’ll be your tour guide. You can do that. Yeah, definitely. I wonder about Ali if she’s going to rub a few of the girls the wrong way and I can already see that starting to happen.
Ali, I want to find out about Ali. Yeah, apparently she’s just got the best beautiful most beautiful soul. Like yeah, inside. Like actually Yeah. Wow. Mate, yeah, she’s gorgeous. Yeah, mate, I’m going to throw a um a curveball. I don’t know. I got the date card tomorrow, so I think it’d be a good time to make that happen. Yeah.
I believe having the date card, I have a massive advantage because this time I get to pick who I want to spend the time with. It’s not the other way around. Apparently, from what I got told by the chat over there? Huh? Hello. Is that a guys chat over there? You can join. You’re welcome.
We haven’t officially met you yet. Oh wait, let me get a champagne. We were just asking where you were actually. Yeah. Hello. The boys look like they’re in the middle of a chat and I was going to come over. Go over and join us. Oh, just come and sit with us. Wherever you like. Oh, she’s back down on that chair.
Damn it. Which one? Ali. Oh, you like her? Yeah. So I’m surprised to see you here. I thought you were engaged. I was engaged. Okay. I’m not anymore. Okay, good. Well, not good, but like you know what I mean. Yeah, we broke up a while ago. Okay. Yeah. So you’ve been single for a while. Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, and I want to find someone. I want to get married. I want to have kids. Yeah. Ali is someone who knows exactly what she wants. I want a husband and I want children and she is a girl on a mission. The men have you’ve come into the men having power now. So you’ve got to impress Jared.
Actually, you don’t at the moment because the numbers are even. At this stage we’ve got even numbers. Same amount of guys, same amount of girls. It’s only a matter of time before things are shaken up. So we’re going to probably get a few more girls and then it’s like survival of the fittest, whoever the boys want to keep around.
I’m Megan. I’m 29 years old and I’m from Richie’s season of The Bachelor. Welcome to Paradise, darling. It’s so good to be with you. Welcome to The last time you saw me, I was exiting a rose ceremony. Megan will you accept this rose? I can’t. He just wasn’t my guy and I know when someone’s not for me and so I left.
My last relationship was with Tiff. Tiffany and I met on set of The Bachelor and we got along instantly. You reckon it’s been that the whole time? Yeah, I do. There’s definitely the potential to hook up with guys or girls or and girls in paradise. I just want to get there and see what happens.
Who are you hoping is here in paradise? I’m hoping that Jake is here, to be honest. I’m kind of hoping Alora is here. Obviously, I like girls and guys. I don’t know if any of the girls are going to swing my way, but if they do, we’ll see what happens. To have so many options. I know. I’m lucky, right? Everyone else has like half and half and I’m just like the whole lot.
It’s awesome. So, you’re here to get to know people. Yes. And that is right. This Thank you, Usher. will be very handy Yes. for you. Oh. blank You Yes. are going to decide who is going to go on that date with you. And to help you decide, I have prepared an entire menu of personality traits. No. Okay. There’s no names there. Okay.
So, when you choose whomever it is that tickles your fancy, I’ll send them in. Send them in now? You’re going to sit down and have dinner? Oh my god. Okay. Thank you, Usher. No worries. I do want to meet somebody. Hopefully, someone adventurous and fun like me. Here’s the menu. Okay. And I’ll be back shortly to take your order. All right. Thank you very much.
Okay. Personality menu. I was really sh0cked and surprised to get the empty date card and the personality menu, but I thought it was really creative and really cool. I don’t know whether it’s a guy or a girl, but I do like a man that’s quite manly. And actually, I quite like curvy women, too.
That big turn on. Spontaneity to start. That is good. Following by a main course of motivation with a side of playfulness. Motivation. I don’t like people that are too motivated. Oh my gosh. I was a bit scared that I would be taking someone who was already maybe possibly in something. I just don’t want drama.
Next, cheekiness tinged with adventure, paired with genuineness, and served with care. I like the cheekiness. You just never know what you’re getting yourself into on the blind date. They didn’t take it seriously. Exactly. Gentlemen. USHER. COME AND JOIN ME OVER HERE, PLEASE. Usher walks in unexpected, but he comes bringing good news for the first time.
There is a new arrival here IN PARADISE. OOH. YOU WILL GET THE CHANCE TO MEET THIS person very, very soon, but one of you has been chosen to meet them in private. This person chose their date from looking at a list of characteristics, and from looking at that list, they made up their mind about whom they would like to join them tonight for an intimate, romantic dinner date.
That’s cool. And they wrote the name of that person on this card. So, that’s a blind date. The person going on this date with whoever it may be has been chosen based on character traits. And now I’m like, that must be someone with amazing qualities. Maybe Luke, maybe Eden. Jake. You have been invited to dinner.
But it’s Jake. What the hell did he write down? What qualities did he write down? I’m so confused. It’s very unexpected. Have a fantastic night. GOODBYE. SEE YOU LATER, MATE. BYE. Jake gets another date. I don’t think Flo is too happy about it, but Flo is never happy about much. So, that’s his second date, right? Yeah.
Two dates in what, two days? Isn’t that with you? Yeah. Oh. I’m sorry. Oh, what’s wrong? Oh, nothing. Jake and I know each other from outside. Like, did you just like meet out at a bar and then go home together? No. No, no, no, no, no. We actually know each other. Like, we I don’t know.
Like, we haven’t dated, but we we know each other. Like, we’ve spent time spoken to each other a lot. You know? Like, texting? Texting, calling. I’ve never done the like the one-night stand thing. No. It wasn’t. It was not a one-night stand. Strange. Ali’s not my friend. I don’t know her. I do not feel the urge to talk to her about Jake.
It seems like she’s not here to make girlfriends. She’s here to find, to use her words, a husband. What’s with your blue nail? See, conversation starter. I was chatting about the blue nail. Perfect opportunity. Thanks, Tara. She’s a matchmaker. So, Ali jumps in for a chat with Jared. I don’t know if anyone can see this, but the resemblance between Sophie and Ali is quite strong.
I’m feeling that Jared might be jumping the gun, and hopefully, he doesn’t fall too hard. So, yeah, what’s your story with your blue nail? So, it’s it’s awareness to child abuse. I just wanted to support. That’s awesome. Yeah. I just think it’s time. shows yeah, what kind of man you are.
I wanted to pull Ali aside because I’m intimidated by girls like this. Girls that are just stupidly hot. So, I’m going for this. I’ve got the power. And you Where are you from? Uh I’m from South Australia. Yeah. What state do you come from? Melbourne. Yeah. I didn’t watch I watched about 5, 10 minutes of Sophie Monk’s Bachelorette, and that’s it.
That’s it. Yeah. I’m glad. Actually, I watched the moment when you were with Sophie at the very end. Yeah, and that was sad. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but it is. Yeah. What do you do in Melbourne? I run the family vineyard. Oh, really? I love wines. Yeah. My family love wine. Love wine? Yeah.
My uncle and auntie own a vineyard in Yeah, the Barossa. Oh. Yeah. That’s That’s weird. The chat with Ali went really well, and that was a good connection, a good vibe. Ali, Jared. Ali, welcome to paradise. Welcome. Hi. It’s McLachlan, is it? It’s No, it’s McCain. McCain, there we go. Then I got interrupted by Mac. How’s paradise treating you so far? Yeah, it’s pretty good.
I feel pretty relaxed right now. And he sat there and sat there and sat there. The rose ceremony was last night for the first time, so. Was that nerve-wracking? Is it the same as like getting a rose now? Why? Cuz you’ve formed a bond already? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Ali and I are getting along pretty well, so.
But in saying that, nothing’s set in stone, which I’m starting to find out with with all couples here, so um Oh, cuz there’s new people coming in all the time, you sort of don’t want to be locked down. Well, people Yeah, well, people are keeping that open book. So, yeah. I spend all my time with Mac. I gave Mac my rose.
You know, Ali coming in, you can see his attention’s a little bit diverted. And it’s the first time I’ve been a little bit jealous. She’s husband hunting, and she is a woman on a mission. Sorry, guys. Excuse me, Ali. No worries. So, what are you doing in Perth? I run a window cleaning company. I’m a humble Okay. humble window cleaner.
Yeah. And did you start the business or I’ve been running that business for 12 years, and I have a staff of six. And they are awesome. You seem very passionate about it. I love that. Is that because you’re entrepreneurial? Speaking to Ali, I felt an instant connection with her. She is awesome.
Have you had Laughing about me. I like this. No one’s asked me questions. I asked you questions. No one’s asked me questions like this in this this whole 5 days. Yeah. Nothing about this. You are making me nervous, actually. I’m making you nervous? Are you serious? Yeah, cuz I’m talking about myself so much.

First impressions are like, “Wow, who is this?” She She’s stunning, and she’s someone I would like to to to look for in the outside world.

I want to wine and dine you. I want to get to know you more. I’ve legit had the best day since Keira went on a date. You You’ve made today rad.
Like, I’ve laughed I had a good time. I’ve laughed a lot. I I’m laughing, too. I feel like Tara and Sam are getting on like a house on fire. Michael was with Tara, since Michael went on a date. Today’s been actually the best day I’ve had here. I think so, too. Today’s been my favorite day. I probably wouldn’t look at Sam and go, “You’re super hot.
” But there’s definitely a spark there when I hang out with him. We’re just on the same page. He messes up like I mess up. We’re both just these hot messes. It’s inevitable. Both Mikey and Keira are going to come back. And it’s like they’re either going to have had an awesome time or they’re going to be like, “Not into that at all.” Yeah, we’ll see. We’ll see.
But Oh, hello. Hello. What did we miss? What’s up? What did we miss? What haven’t you missed? How did you go? Did you make a hat? We brought back a hat. What did you do? Do you want to get a seat? What did we miss? Yeah. So, Mikey and Keira come back. I do see Mikey come straight over to Tara and pretty much touch her on the arm.

This doesn’t happen in the real world. f1ghting over two different girls at the same place. Think they call it a love triangle? Yeah, I was in it.
I’m nervous about this blind date. I’ve got no idea who it could be. All I know is it’s a romantic dinner and she’s picked me off off my personality traits. I’m waiting for my date to arrive and I’m feeling a little bit nervous, a little bit excited, not knowing who’s going to come along.
I like men and women. I’m still open to the possibilities. When I saw Jake, I was so glad that it was him. It’s good to see you. It’s been a while. It has been a while. It’s been a while for you. It has been. So, Jake and I met about a year ago and we were at a party. I was in a relationship at the time, but we just got along really well.
And then since then, we’ve just stayed in contact. We’ve never seen each other physically since then. It’s just been every now and then I’ll give him a call or he’ll give me a call and we just have a chat. It’s been It’s been over a year. Yeah, it has been. It’s like a year ago yesterday, I think. Really? Around about.
You’re timing it from when we last saw each other. It’s our anniversary. How cute is that? Our first meeting. Exactly. So, Megan, I’m pretty pretty relieved and I’m pretty surprised. You know, we do have a little bit of history that we’ve been talking for a little while. You know, there’s a bit of a friendship there and you know, I’m pretty excited to see her.
So, what was the thing you went for, cheeky? Cheeky. It was, too. Cheeky. Yeah. It was. Wish I had some champagne. So, how’s it been in paradise, anyway? Um cheers first because we’re Good to see you. Um no, paradise is good. It’s um it’s different. Coming from a cheeky person, there must be a lot of drama on your part. You reckon? Yeah, I reckon.
What makes you think that? Come on, Jake. Uh, I might have gotten into a little bit of drama at the start. Oh, really? Yeah. So, we’ve had our first rose ceremony. Everyone was like pairing up and it was just It was super Oh, really? Okay. So, who was your pair? I wasn’t really a pair.
That’s me and I was the last rose. There was all this drama surrounded me. Uh, Davey and Florence. Cuz you and Florence used There’s a little bit of history there. Yeah, okay. Uh, but yeah, it was just It was pretty fun. Okay. Interesting. No, it’s only It’s only been a couple days, so it’s still early. Yeah, okay.
So, we’re in the clear. Wh@tever you want to do. We did talk about Flo briefly and he made it sound like it was completely over. Completely over. Yeah. Wh@tever is meant to be will be and it’s just Jake has been following me around like a puppy dog since day since the minute he got here.
And now he had his rose yesterday. He doesn’t even look at me today. He has been like chatting up Ali and now he’s gone on that date. He hasn’t spoken to me all day. Like he got his rose and never seen him again. You look stunning, by the way. Oh, thank you. So, you look so beautiful. That was so terribly. But I’ll take it.
I’ll still take it. You’ll take it. I’ll still take it. Dude, I will admit though, when I did You know when they asked like who would you want to see in here? Yeah. I might have said you. I might have said you, too. Really? Yeah. Is it too soon for me to make a move? No, definitely not too soon. Do you want to sit on that comfortable couch behind you? It’s uh the love couch? The love couch.
Let’s go to the love couch. So, yeah, tell me what else you did on your date. So, you went horse riding, which is my dream. I couldn’t have written a better script for a date. Yeah, it was fun. Yeah, it was good. And what do you look for in a girl? Exactly this. Something like Tara? Tara has Why didn’t take Tara on the date? I didn’t get a hit. Keira got it.
Keira got the card. Oh, that’s sad. We We have a lot of fun and we we get on really well and So, you wished you would have gone on the date with Tara. I I would love Yeah, of course I’d love to go on a date with Tara. When I came back into paradise with the group, I went and spoke to Tara. She seemed a little bit sort of stand-offish, to be honest.
So, I didn’t really know what was going on. So, I definitely wanted to have a chat with her. What did you do? We We went horse riding. Oh, fun. Hence the hat on the beach, which I’ve never done before. I’ve never ridden a horse. So, I was I was um I was excited, but super nervous. Horses are very strong animals. And they um they were beautiful.
But I I loved it, but we had fun. I’m glad. As far as like Keira asked a lot of questions about you, obviously. And she said, you know, um you know, I hope it’s not an issue. I’m like, “Tara’s cool. Tara’s not going to have this.” I know. I know that. And I said, “You’re going to be fine.” And I just said, “You know what? You know, like Tara is still the person I want to get to know.
” And Keira’s like, “I understand. I get it.” So, Did she try and lead you on? Did she try it? Listen, she was flirty. Cool. That’s fine. Cool. But what a great day. Yeah. Were you worried about me? No. I had the best day. I’m joking. I had a really good day. I had a really I’m going to take this off. Thanks. Um no, I had a really good day.
I I think um Uncle Sam and I just kind of went rebound today and so we kind of spent the day together and it was great. Yeah. It was really funny. Um so, yeah, I was kind of like, “See you later.” Then I was in love all day and then you came home and No, it’s good. Like, wh@tever. Okay. Yeah. I think I was really blatantly honest to Michael when he got back about my head space.
And to be honest, I haven’t been 100% sure if Michael and I could ever eventuate to anything because I’m still trying to work him out. It’s It’s not that I don’t care about you at all. What cuz I’m getting the like stand-off vibe like No. No. No. No. It’s like I done something wrong. No. No. No, it’s all good. It’s all good. This is not the Tara I know.
You’ve seen I’ll let it go. Look. Well, it’s all good. Tara’s response to having a chat was a little bit cold. And I wasn’t quite sure what happened while I was gone. Something’s changed. I have you spoken to Keira since she’s come back? I was talking to Jared. I don’t want to talk to Jared. Um so much time. Tara. I’m winning a lot right now.
I had the champagne. We both had the We were both rebound. The rejects of today. What do you expect us to do? We tried to get along with it. We’re both heartbroken lying here like, “What’s up?” Tara and Michael were just a disaster waiting to happen. But, Tara and Sam are a match made in heaven. They are perfect for each other.
Cuz Did you catch his David Attenborough impression? It’s golden. Show me, please. As you can see, the frog is focused on the other frog. Oh my god! And when it’s not spring, they’re mostly focused on food. But now, the frog is focused on mating. How quickly things can change. Oh, what’s up? What happened? Oh, I don’t know.
Tell me. No, nothing. Come on. I I think the water h*rt. Like, I really And I really wanted to see where it could go, but I feel like how can I not be a little bit offended with that? I’m really like sort of upset and sh0cked about it. Like, I know we’ve only been hanging out a couple of days, but I had a really good connection and I saw the potential where it could go, and tonight I came back to this different woman that I didn’t didn’t know before, and you know, it’s it’s upsetting.
It really is. Like, I just I’m sh0cked. It’s been good so far, right? Yeah, it’s been amazing. All this or this? Just like being paradise. Yeah, it’s been good. This has been better. Yeah, I hope so. Yeah, if you play your cards right, I might I might stick around for a bit. We’ll see. We’ll see. Yeah, you will. We will.
This isn’t your opportunity to say that. I know. You’re You’re really wanting to like put the authority here, aren’t you? Yeah. Yeah? You like being the man. Yeah. For now, I’m I’m in charge for now. That’s nice. I like that. I guess the chemistry between Jake and I was pretty spot on.
Like, we were pretty flirty, and a few touches here and there, and I could tell that he was attracted to me, and I was very attracted to him as well. I do want to be here. I would like to think it means he’s giving me a rose. Well, I’m wondering if the lady taking Jake on the date will be disappointed or impressed. Or impressed. He’s good He He He’s good value when you meet him for the first time, but he runs out of words and stuff to talk about real quick.
So, maybe for one dinner. Oh, that He’ll get through it. Yeah, yeah. And then the more they hang out, the more she’ll see. He can hold a conversation and he’ll just squint and stare at her. Yeah. Like he does. It’s so hard with Flo because Jake didn’t have a choice, and the girl who picked Jake didn’t know she was choosing Jake.
Um Nonetheless, I think Flo’s pretty pissed off about it. I’m glad it was you, and it was nice to have a familiar face. Is that all I am is a familiar face on this date? No, I quite like you. Yeah? Yeah, it was a very good date. I’m glad you think so. It’s fate, blind date. Definitely an instant connection with me and Megan. She’s stunning.
She’s She’s laid-back. She’s just good fun. Um you know, I really want to spend more time with her and and you know, enjoy myself with her company here in paradise. I feel so stupid. Like, I should have sent him home. I should have sent him home. I cannot believe listened to your gut. I think Florence is going to be watching those doors of paradise waiting to see who Jake comes back from his date with.
All right. Well, I’m going to walk you in. I’ll Yeah, let’s go meet everybody, hey? Come here, Maxie. Maxie. I’m feeling good going into paradise, like with already having made a connection with somebody. I didn’t think it would happen that quick. Yeah, it’s nice to have a spark before walking into the doors.
I’m feeling good. So, are you ready to go in? We’re ready to go in. All right. Ready? Yeah. Good night, gang. God damn it, you’re good kissers. Next time on Bachelor in Paradise. I don’t know much about Megan. I thought she was a lesbian. Megan and Jake What’s her name? Is it Megan Megan or Megan? return to paradise. Flo’s lovable.
When Flo’s angry, it’s not good. And cyclone Florence hits category five. Why is he lying about it? And why is he still contemplating giving me a rose? Everything he says doesn’t make sense because he’s full of He can’t be trusted. How dare you say that? Meanwhile, paradise is perfect right now. I’ve got a date card.
I’ve got two beautiful women that I’m interested in. The new Relax, Jared. I Do you know what to do? makes his choice. Leaving Keira Yeah, it was very upsetting for me. devastated. I just want someone to love me for me.
