[Colton Underwood]
This season, on Are You My First?
-[group screaming]
-What is that?
I know what it looks like.
-My grandma's gonna be thrilled.
-[Rachael laughs]
[Colton]
21 virgins landed in paradise
-[Rachael] Wait, is this an arrival?
-[Jake] It's an arrival.
[Colton] hoping to fall in love
Like, this is the first time
I'm catching feelings.
♪♪
[Colton] with someone
they could lose their virginity to.
I am feeling so excited about Layne.
[Rachael] I don't wanna die a virgin.
I wanna have sex.
Sounds like a good time.
Sign me up.
[Colton] There were shocking betrayals
You have been sacrificed.
This is like a slap in the face.
He was like, "I just feel
like we should be friends."
-What?
-This always happens to me.
[crying] Yeah, I just am like
pretty embarrassed.
[crying] I believed him and I trusted him.
You're telling people what is not true.
I didn't know it ran this deep, though.
Oh, my goodness!
[Colton] intimate moments.
[Ty] Jade and I do have
some feelings for each other.
Could I steal a kiss from you?
[Godwin] I'm here to find my person.
Maybe I'm avoiding the L-word.
Why does everybody else
feel comfortable having sex,
and, like, I don't?
Nothing is wrong with you.
[Colton] And every tear, kiss
Wanna kiss on the lips?
-What?
-What?
[Rachael] The idea of falling in love
was, like, scary at first,
but now I feel more excited than anything.
[Colton] and awkward conversation.
Right.
What if tomorrow, there are
other sparks elsewhere?
-Me and Jade--
-Oh, dang!
[Colton] has led up to this.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Spencer] Whoa, what the?
What is going on right now?
[Colton] Who will Jade choose?
Which couple will make it
to The Big Finish?
This is the biggest moment
of your journey here.
Each couple will be moving in together.
Oh, my God!
Sara, your mother, Joann,
cannot wait to catch up with you.
Oh, my God.
Are you really a virgin?
[Colton] And who will go all the way?
Find out right now.
[dramatic sting]
-[sparkling flourish]
-[ocean waves crashing]
[dramatic music playing]
[Kaitlyn Bristowe]
It's the final virgin sacrifice.
Yes, it began last episode.
Yes, we left you hanging,
and, no, we're not sorry.
Jade can choose one guy
to take to The Big Finish.
Ty.
[Kaitlyn] Ty has connected with Jade
on an emotional level.
Godwin.
[Kaitlyn] But physically,
Jade is hot for a bit of God-bod.
[Spencer] Whoa, what the?
[Kaitlyn] See?
This is why we left the last episode
on a cliffhanger!
[Spencer] No way.
Don't play with fire ♪
Coming into this experience,
I didn't think it was possible
for a woman like me
to find a connection,
but along the way, I was able to find two.
["Don't Play With Fire"
by Jake Warren playing]
I want a romantic, emotional,
and physical connection.
Let the games begin ♪
But I feel like that I received
a part of that from the both of you.
[dramatic, suspenseful music playing]
So [sighs]
I'm not choosing
♪♪
either of you.
I've been waiting for a very
long time for what I've wanted,
and I don't mind waiting
a little bit longer,
because I feel like I'm deserving of that.
["Million Moments"
by Jennifer June playing]
I go over ♪
Within my mind ♪
I completely agree.
You are very deserving of feeling loved.
And I know and hope
that this goes to show you that
you are capable of finding those things,
and so am I, so
I'm happy for you. I feel like what's
meant to be is gon' be, you know?
A million moments ♪
[Ty] Come here, Jade, thank you.
We'll never have ♪
A million moments ♪
Thank you, thank you,
thank you, thank you.
Unfortunately, that means Madi, Farha,
Vivek, Spencer, Jade,
Ty,
and Godwin
you have all been sacrificed.
So please take a moment
and say goodbye to all
the amazing friends you've made here.
This didn't go how we planned ♪
-[Spencer] Man.
-Bye, roomie. I love you forever.
Love you too, buddy.
[Godwin] My guy.
-What?
-Sorry.
[both laughing]
I learned that when I get back
on the next flight to Miami,
I am banging the first
person at the airport
'cause I do not wanna be a part
of the virgin community anymore.
[laughs] I'm kidding.
["when the party's over"
by Billie Eilish playing]
[overlapping goodbyes]
[Rachael] Bye, Madi, I love you.
-I miss you already!
-Love you.
I'm leaving still a virgin,
but I think I've, like,
truly changed as a person
for the better.
I don't think when I came in
I thought I was deserving of love at all.
But now I do.
And it's been the most incredible
experience of my life.
Quiet when I'm comin' home
and I'm on my own ♪
-Oh, man.
-Sara, pleasure meeting you.
-It is.
-Pleasure meeting you.
Things didn't work out
between me and Jade,
but at least I know that I gave it my all.
And I really believe that my future wife
is probably gonna be watching.
So, until I fall in love with that
right one and it's reciprocated,
I'm a virgin.
I could lie, say I like it like that ♪
Like it like that ♪
[Ty] Leaving the island,
I feel grateful for Jade.
I know when losing my virginity
happens with the right person,
it'll be a great experience.
And whoever it is,
they'll embrace every part of me.
We've both said our goodbyes ♪
[Jade]
Although I might not have found him here,
I am hopeful that I will
find the love of my life
and experience intimacy.
I feel like I deserve the love
that I've always dreamt of
and desired for.
I could lie, say I like it like that ♪
Like it like that ♪
[Colton] It's crazy to think that
we started with so many virgins
and now we're down
to our final three couples.
Rachael, Michael,
Sara and Jake,
and Brooklyn and Layne.
Congratulations.
The journey to find the person
you lose your virginity to isn't easy.
[Kaitlyn] But also,
your journey is far from over.
For these next three days,
you'll be tested as couples
to see if you're compatible
off the island.
[Colton] At The Big Finish,
it'll be up to each of you
to determine if you want to leave together
or go your separate ways.
[Sara] I have no idea what's gonna happen,
but there is a possibility
that I could be leaving
the island with a boyfriend
and not a virgin.
And that just really makes me feel happy.
-Go enjoy the night.
-[contestants] Thank you.
Congratulations.
-Yeah, I want in on that.
-Yay!
-[Kaitlyn] Congratulations, guys.
-[Rachael] We made it.
-How cool?
-A bunch of virgins in a circle
-[contestants] Oh!
-[laughter]
[joyful music playing]
Forever ♪
["Forever Young" by Temmpo playing]
Forever young ♪
You and I, forever ♪
[Kaitlyn] The Big Finish is coming up
in just a few days
and we have a plan
to really help these virgins
answer the question: Are You My First?
You and I, forever ♪
[Colton] What's up?
-[contestants] Hi!
-[Kaitlyn] Hello!
-Hi, ladies.
-Oh, my gosh, cuties!
We have a fun celebratory
brunch for you guys.
[excited overlapping chatter]
[upbeat music playing]
[Michael]
Now that all the riffraff is gone,
it's gonna be a lot easier
to just focus on us.
Both me and Rachael just haven't
really faced our virginity
and the fact that we're doing it together,
it could lead to some,
some of that good stuff.
Do you wanna try the parfait?
Of course, if you're feeding me.
-[Kaitlyn] Oh, wow.
-[Michael] Yummy, huh?
[all laughing]
[Kaitlyn] So, now that we're all together,
what do we feel like we've
all learned on this journey?
God, I learned about
my physical intimacy issues.
Yeah.
That one I'm still going through.
I mean, for us it's definitely
just me kind of confusing Sara
in a lot of different ways.
We had to just really kind of
get on the same page.
My favorite saying is,
"Communication is lubrication."
-It really is.
-[Jake] Okay.
[laughter]
So I'm sure, obviously, you're wondering
what the final days here
are gonna look like.
Yeah.
As soon as this brunch is over,
each couple will be moving in together
into their very own Love Shack.
Oh, my God.
[dramatic music playing]
[Colton] Spending intimate time together
over these final days
will help you confidently answer
the question: Are You My First?
[Kaitlyn]
So, we told you from the beginning
that we were gonna push you
out of your comfort zones
and this is the biggest,
most important moment
of your journey here.
[Rachael] Moving in with Michael
is a big deal to me
and it's just really overwhelming,
because now, I realize how real it is
that I think I could totally see myself
losing my virginity to Michael.
I encourage all of you
to continue to be brave
and allow yourselves to be surprised
about what you might
discover about one another.
I don't think I've ever been with a man,
like, 24/7 like this before.
So, we're really gonna have
some quality one-on-one time.
I'm ready.
This will all lead up
to your final day here.
You'll have an opportunity
to declare your feelings
to one another at The Big Finish.
Did you find love here?
Or will you leave broken-hearted?
-It's a lot.
-[Michael] What?
I think this week is gonna get real.
I just have issues being vulnerable
and intimate with people.
So, I think I'm gonna have
to confront some fears of mine
and that's spooky.
[curious music playing]
Thank you. Okay, enjoy your time.
-We'll see you soon.
-We'll see you soon.
[overlapping goodbyes]
-Oh, goodness.
-Oh, wow.
[Brooklyn] My heart started,
like, racing when they said that.
[Jake] Oh, man.
Yeah.
I'm actually very excited
to be going in the Love Shack
and maybe sleeping in
the same bed with Jake
because I'm learning that the physical
intimacy is really important to me.
These days are gonna go by very quick now.
[Sara] Mm-hm.
-They're gonna go by really quickly.
-Are you okay?
You're, like, shaking a little bit.
-Am I shaking?
-A little bit.
I don't know, I just
I know this is gonna sound really crazy.
If there is only one bed
Even if, like, the bed is huge,
like, I could just put, like, a crap ton
of, like, pillows between us?
-Mm-mm.
-No?
[Jake] I'd feel better
And I want you to enjoy the bed
and everything like that.
Is that okay?
-Okay, yeah. Okay.
-Okay?
I believe that the bed should be saved
for marriage to sleep together.
I have had other situations
where I have slept over
and things have gotten a little handsy
and it's more of a regret
rather than feeling happy
about what I just did.
But are you okay with us staying
in the same place, and
Yeah. Yeah, we can stay
in the same place. It's just, I--
-I'ma have to sleep on the floor.
-Okay.
I am sexually attracted to Jake.
It's just, like, hard
'cause I feel like he's not,
he's not feeling the same way towards me.
And I do feel like Jake is
closing himself off more and more.
[Jake] But, I'll wake you up
in the morning
-[chuckles]
-and then I get to see you.
-See me with my glasses.
-With no makeup on, yeah.
-My gla-- No, no makeup.
-No makeup on.
-And glasses.
-My glasses are huge.
-[clears throat] That's awesome.
-Mm-hm.
I don't have my glasses.
I lost the prescription.
I should know better ♪
[Kaitlyn] Now, if only the Emmys
had a "Most Outstanding Achievement
in Awkwardness" category.
But Jake isn't the only one
sweating bullets
at the prospect
of a pre-marriage sleepover.
How do you feel about this?
Because I'm, like
I just have so many thoughts
going on in my mind right now.
Like, I don't even think
I have it fully processed yet.
No. Yeah, I'm fully panicked.
-Yeah.
-Like, I'm very, very particular
-about who's in my space.
-Really?
-So, to share a space
-Oh, gosh.
with anybody is hard for me,
-let alone, like, a guy.
-Yeah.
Like, I'm trying to, like,
convince myself,
-"Yeah, it'll be fun."
-Uh-huh.
But just knowing myself,
I know how hard it's gonna be
and it's, like, I just don't know.
Tell me, how do you get back home ♪
When you're spinnin' out of control ♪
I feel like I'm starting
to, like, shut down.
I can't really hide now.
-Mm-mm.
-Like, he's gonna be seeing
-Yeah.
-this. [softly chuckles]
Nobody has, like--
[Rachael]
Right now, I'm just, like, freaking out
because sharing my space
is, like, a thing for me.
This is something that
has happened in my past
and maybe in past relationships
I didn't care if it ruined everything.
But now I'm, I'm scared that it will
because I care so much more about Michael
and I don't wanna lose him.

[Kaitlyn]
With The Big Finish coming quickly,
the couples are being given
their own private Love Shacks.
The virgins will bring
all of their baggage
and some of their suitcases, too.
I would risk it all to know ♪
[cheerful music playing]
[Brooklyn] Ooh! Oh, my gosh. A V-card.
-Where?
-Right here.
-"Sara and Jake"
-"Rachael and Michael"
"Brooklyn and Layne,
welcome to your Love Shack."
"welcome to your Love Shack, enjoy."
-That's nice.
-Yay!
-[giggles]
-Wow.
I've never had a girlfriend
and this is my first time
living with a female,
like, a romantic kind of way.
So, I'm definitely worried about, like,
I mean, just sharing
a bathroom with a girl.
[laughs]
-It's like one of these.
-Oh, wow.
-Where you, like, roll the dice.
-Okay, that's pretty cool.
[Kaitlyn] Time alone in the Love Shack
with their partners
is the virgins' chance to confront all
of their fears and barriers to intimacy,
but also a chance to avoid doing that,
like they've been doing
for their entire lives.
[Rachael] [gasps] We have a hot tub!
We are totally getting in that.
-Oh, I don't know.
-What?
-No, we're getting in.
-Oh, okay. [laughs]
[Sara] Looks really nice.
[Jake] Oh, my God.
Wait, wait, wait. Come here.
[Kaitlyn] Jake's found
the sexiest thing of all,
the place where the magic doesn't happen.
-[angelic choral music playing]
-[Jake] There's a couch.
-I'm so actually really happy--
-At least you have somewhere to go.
-Thank goodness. I was worried about that.
-I'm happy.
[upbeat music playing]
[Rachael laughs]
-A toast
-Toast.
to getting to know each other
even better this week.
-[glasses clink]
-Alright.
[Brooklyn] This week is extremely
important for me and Layne
because I do want to get deeper with him
and I wanna see if we can
make it work on the outside.
Because Layne is somebody that I can
see myself losing my virginity to.
[Colton] Seems like Brooklyn's
in an "open lane,"
but Jake's rules for day one
with Sara in a Love Shack
sound more like day one
with a cellmate in a supermax prison.
Obviously, like I said,
I can't stay in the same bed with you.
-Mm-hm.
-But I'm definitely willing to
be in the same room
and, and see what we can do.
[Sara] I mean, I'm okay with it,
but also Kaitlyn and Colton
said that this will help
or make our relationship crumble,
-so I think--
-Wait, crumble?
Like crumble, like, kinda like
it's either you leave the island
-with your relationship or you don't.
-Oh, yeah, true.
So, I think that this is the test.
I think that Sara and I
are really compatible
when it comes to the emotional,
but I do think right now
we are not compatible
when it comes to the physical.
So, those are hard questions
that we need to answer
during the time of us living together.

My heart is trippin' like I'm tipsy ♪
When I saw you
for the first time, it hit me ♪
First day, Love Shack, so excited.
It's gonna be so nice
to just hang out one-on-one.
Rachael's really nervous
and, for me, that means I can't be nervous
because someone has to be
a solid rock in this scenario
or we're both gonna freak the hell out.
Oh, my God. We're just gonna be
stuck in this room together now.
I know.
So
[Michael] [chuckles] Okay, well
Yeah?
[tense music playing]
[solemn music playing]
I'm feeling good.
It's so intimidating at first.
The last time I was
with Rachael in the Love Shack,
it was just awkward
but we're easing into it, you know?
It's like such a whole new environment,
uh, and this, like,
big sort of commitment.
So, yeah, off the rip,
a little bit nervous.
But, yeah, as we're hanging out more,
it's getting easier.
["Where Do We Go Now"
by Vanacore Music playing]
I'm excited that me and Rachael
are gonna be forced to
confront a lot of the fears
that we both have.
I think she's a good person to do it with,
so it should be beneficial.
We've got everything to lose ♪
I'm ready to get back
to the old ball and chain.

Oh, where do we go ♪
Now? ♪

Mm ♪
[music fades out]
[Rachael] [sniffles] I'm sorry.
[sniffles]
[softly crying]
[solemn music playing]
It's just so many emotions.
Opening your heart up
and being vulnerable is just, like,
super freakin' scary.
But I'm definitely
embracing the fear right now
and just jumping into the deep end here
and I know it'll pay off in the long run.
I'm, like, processing so much.
-Yeah.
-[sniffles]
[solemn music continues]
It's, like, really getting to me.
It's okay.
It's alright. We'll go through this
as slowly as we can, you know?
We'll, we'll make sure you're
feeling good and comfortable.
I'm here to listen.
It's crazy. I've never been, like,
vulnerable like this in front of somebody,
-like a guy before.
-It's, it's good.
It's good to be.
I think historically speaking,
I'm probably not the best when
it comes to dealing with emotions,
but whatever issues
I have dealing with emotions
I need to just, like, forget about
so I can be there for her.
You cry as much as you need to.
I'm never gonna tell you not to cry.
I'll be there to lick up the tears.
Yeah, it's-- Okay. [laughs]
[laughing] 'Kay.
Let's go back out there.
Alright. [sighs]
-Is that gonna happen every time I leave?
-Cry number one of the day.
Honestly, it might.
Baby, if you want me
to stay for the night ♪
[Kaitlyn] After unpacking their baggage,
emotional and otherwise,
the virgins are relaxed enough
to get super wet
in their respective
water-related activities.
[upbeat music playing]
I guess this is kind of what it's like.
You know, married couples and stuff.
-Should we go jacuzzi on the balc?
-Right now?
Yeah, let's go do it.
-Got some flowers here I picked for you.
-Oh!
-You picked them for me?
-Yep.
-Yeah.
-From our bouquet of flowers?
-Yeah.
-Thank you.
[Kaitlyn]
And after a day of G-rated fun
Take it off, baby.
[Kaitlyn] Jake and Sara
get down and dirty
with a game of bingo that,
and I don't wanna shock you,
but could take things
all the way up to PG-13.
F5
"Pinch your partner's butt."
Okay, stand up.
[playful funky music playing]
-Cool.
-Did that hurt?
-No, it didn't.
-Dang it.
Alright, F3
"Do a fun dance together." Oh, yes!
I've had a lot of my firsts here.
I'm gonna show you all these dance moves.
My first date, my first proper kiss,
and my first time living with someone.
But when it comes to us connecting
on different levels or being intimate,
it's definitely a little awkward.
-[Jake] And, together.
-[Sara chuckles]
There we go.
-So that was a couple
-That was cute.
I2
[loud tapping]
"Give each other a kiss on the lips."
[Sara] Hmm.
[music stops]
[laughs] Okay.
-Just how, how, how--
-[laughing]
Just to know, how do you do--
How do you do--
How do you do this for you?
Like, what is?
-Um
-'Cause I'm--
I go for more of the bottom lip.
So I'll, like, kiss your
bottom lip and you just,
and you just receive it.
[awkward music playing]
And so, you don't have
to move or anything.
I don't have to-- Okay.
Well, we'll get through this
and we'll learn.
I am wanting to kiss Jake.
I've always wanted to kiss him
throughout our experience together
because he's so nice to me
and I'm starting to really like him.
But it is a little awkward
because he is telling me what
I should and shouldn't be doing.
Okay. [clears throat]
-Alright?
-Mm-hm.
Oh.
♪♪
Oh. It's down, it's down,
it's down, it's down.
♪♪
[Sara] Not sure if this is
how it's supposed to happen.
That's See?
But, at least we're kissing,
so [laughs]
-[laughing]
-It's the kiss-- It's the lip.
-Mm-hm.
-Okay.
I think it was really nice.
It was really nice.
I definitely feel a lot more comfortable
in these certain areas than Sara.
That was quick.
Alright.
[Colton] Fun fact:
while Jake attempted a French kiss,
what was actually achieved
was known as a Yugoslavian kiss.
Not to be outdone,
Michael shows Rachael
how to get him to squirt.
[Rachael] [shrieking] Oh, Michael!
-[upbeat music playing]
-[both laughing]
Oh, my God!
I feel so lucky.
Me too.
Like, I can't believe, like, I came here
and actually, like, found something.
I know.
[Rachael] It has been a 180 from earlier
and now I feel
so comfortable with Michael.
This could really be something,
like really, like, this could last,
and it's very exciting.
-I'ma go grab the letter I wrote you.
-'Kay.
Enjoy the view.
I feel like now's the time
to give him the letter I wrote him
that he never got before he came back.
I just think it's
a good idea for him to see
kinda where my head was at
and what I was feeling
and that kind of my heart was
still with him when he was gone.
"Michael, this whole experience
has just made me realize
"how much you mean to me.
"Even though we've only known
each other for a few days,
"in just that short amount of time, I've
been able to see how amazing you are.
"My only hope now is that you'll be okay
"and will come back
so that we can continue to build
"on this already special connection.
"I know you are worth the wait.
Thinking of you."
-Isn't that cute?
-Thank you.
That's nice.
["Dive" by Adette playing]
It's nice. It's nice to hear
how much she cared when I left.
It was really sweet.
-Thank you.
-Yeah, of course.
That makes me feel
really good that you feel that way.
-Yeah?
-Yeah.
Rachael's really good
at being vulnerable with me
and, like, really expressing her emotions,
which is something I'm not great at.
And so, I know it's something
like, I need to work on.
[both chuckling]
[upbeat music playing]
[Kaitlyn] That's it for day one
of the appropriately named Love Shack,
or by its full name, Love Shaquille.
So, has the virgins' hard work
breaking through barriers
actually broken through any barriers?
Would you have any interest
in putting eczema cream
on my chest eczema?
-Okay.
-Yeah?
-Do you have it?
-Yeah, I'll get you the cream.
-Okay, get me the cream.
-'Kay.
Tonight's the first night
sharing the bed with Rachael,
so I let her know that
my eczema was flaring up.
-Anytime you need me to do this.
-[chuckles]
-You'll, you'll do that for me?
-I volunteer.
That's so nice.
Rachael's really just getting
that cream all over my body
and then I'm rubbing lotion
all over Rachael's legs.
-[sultry music playing]
-[Rachael] Oh yeah.
Yeah, that's hot.
I don't want to do a porn thing.
Can we not do a porn thing?
[Rachael] Oh, I'm sorry I'm sexy
and everything just comes off
as porn with me, okay?
This got really unsexy really fast.
At this point,
I'm ready to, to get plowed,
but this is usually when I start,
like, internalizing everything
and freaking out.
Well, stop touching me
if you don't want to.
No, I'm happy to touch you. I am.
[Kaitlyn] While Michael and Rachael
continue to rub and tug
and also not do a porn thing,
Layne deploys a cushion force field
so Brooklyn reaches
for his heart, not his junk.
Are there any things,
like, for your future
that you're like,
"I must do for my future"?
-[soft music playing]
-Get married and have a family, I guess.
Yeah.
I've always said my dream job
is to be a mom. [giggles]
-That's the right answer.
-Yeah? [giggles]
[Layne] I really like Brooklyn.
Even though I'm just the most
confident guy in the world,
I never really had a serious girlfriend
because commitment is a big step

the sun isn't the only thing rising.
The couples are one day closer
to The Big Finish ceremony

Admittedly for Jake and Sara,
that pod would need to be as long
as the distance from the bed to the couch.
I liked holding your hand last night
when we were going to sleep,
and this morning.
-I think it's romantic.
-Do you?
-Yeah.
-I thought so, too.
First night in the Love Shack,
pillow wall goes up.
Uh, I think that's just in response
to how she was feeling during the day
and just me letting her know, like,
we will take as long as it needs.
You know, I'm feeling pretty good.
I think that on this pace,
we're on track to lose some
of the pillows in the wall.
[Brooklyn] I wonder how everyone else
is doing this morning.
Yeah, I know. [laughs]
Like, I wonder about, like
[both laughing]
Last night was my, uh, first night
to sleep with a girl all night in bed.
So I guess I lost my, uh,
sleeping-in-a-bed-with-a-girl virginity.

It was so nice, like, just like
laying in Layne's arms in bed

I've never, like,

Aw.

Yes! Oh, my gosh.

I'm so excited right now.
Layne just asked me to be his girlfriend.
I was not expecting Layne
to go down on one knee today. [laughs]
I just wanted to do something
more impressive, extravagant

"Would you be my girlfriend," you know?
[Brooklyn] I love it.
Yeah, it's a very pretty ring.
I've never had a girlfriend,
so this is crazy.
-I'm very, very happy.
-Me too.
[Layne] She's a princess, you know?
That's why I got her a promise ring.

We have our first official couple,

You look so beautiful. Wow.
-How are you?
-Good.
How are you doing? How are you feeling?
How's your heart?
-I'm nervous, um--
-You're nervous?
How did your visit from your mom go?
Um [laughs]
My mom is obviously very protective of me.
Yeah.
-She's always kept it real with me.
-[Kaitlyn] Yeah.
And she just kind of just like,
"I don't think that he's the one for you."
[Kaitlyn] Yeah.
[Colton] Jake, you're looking sharp.
Thank you. Thank you.
Good to see you. Good to see you.
So, how are we feeling?
-I'm feeling good.
-Walk me through your emotions
over this whole journey.
There's certain things
that I've made mistakes,
but we made it through.
It seems like every
single time we felt like
it was gonna destroy our relationship,
it actually just made it stronger.
-Given this is your first relationship
-[Sara] Mm-hm.
are you ready to go up to Jake
and tell him your truth?
-Yes.
-Yeah?
-I am.
-Yeah.
Then I'm so proud of you.
-Thank you.
-Yeah.
So, good luck
and head on down to the beach.
-[tense, curious music playing]
-[Sara] When I came here,
I was looking to find
a real first-time experience
filled with butterflies
and sparks and just happiness.
There have been some really
good moments with Jake
and I'm pretty confident in what
I'm going to do and what I've decided.
You know, you came here looking for love.
Do you think you can potentially
fall in love with Sara?
I think I could. I think I could, yes.
Sara is such an amazing person,
but there are times when
I say stuff and it may confuse her.
And I'm trying to be kind of aware of that
and, and how to navigate that.
And I hope that she sees that
because I pictured losing her
and that just did not sit right with me.

I was writing in my journal

Everything that I tried to do

And sometimes, I guess it doesn't--
it didn't look that way.
I mean, it never feels good
to be rejected.
And also, it doesn't
feel good to see a future
and then not to see it fruition.
It's sad because I could
definitely see myself
losing my virginity to her,
but I think she's an amazing woman
and any man would be so lucky to have her.
[Sara] That was hard,
but it does feel empowering
to put myself first.
I've obviously been
guided by what he wants

Michael, how are we doing?
-Are you excited? Nervous?
-Oh.
-How are we feeling?
-Um, no, it's a difficult decision.
A tough few days.
We were able to get past
certain boundaries that we both had.
And, uh, it's a lot of emotions at once
that I haven't really experienced before.
[light music playing]
Hi. [nervously chuckles]
-Oh, my God. So nervous.
-Yes.
-So anxious.
-What specifically is making you nervous?
Um, I'm nervous about where
Michael's at in all this.
I'm hoping he takes
the leap of faith with me,
but based off of our conversations,
I'm scared that he's gonna, like,
let his fear kind of take over.
I just got super in my head
and it just seemed like
such a big commitment to me.
And I wasn't sure if I was ready yet.
Like-- And the whole time
I'm keeping in mind,
like, Rachael 'cause
I really don't wanna hurt her.
Yeah.
But I've definitely gotten
a lot of clarity the past few days.
Good.
Do you know what you're
gonna say to Rachael?
[tense music playing]
Pretty nervous about my decision
and I'm scared it's gonna just blow up.
And then it's, like, she's gonna hate me
and there's so many
questions looming over me
and, yeah, not knowing
if I'm making the right one.
[tense music continues]
I've learned in this kind of experience
that, like, receiving
and accepting love is different.
-Yes.
-You know?
-Than knowing you deserve it.
-Yes.
And I think, I'm not sure
if he's ready to receive it yet.
Gonna see what happens, I guess.
-Only a few more steps to go.
-[exhales] Okay.
Okay. I'll let you go.
-Thank you.
-Okay.
I know how hard this decision
is gonna be for Michael,

it's making me struggle with it.

everything will work out,

I remember seeing you
on the first day and just thinking,
[babbles] "Awooga!"
-Um [chuckles]

To my surprise,
you were willing to talk to me.
I remember being on that boat
and we had our first kiss.
And it was smooth. I said to you,
"Can I kiss you on the lips?"
And you went, "What?"
And then I leaned in.
You were pretty much obsessed ever since.
Just as things started to get
good though, I had to go home.
But you waited for me.
No girl has ever made me
feel that important before.
When we moved into the Love Shack

I've been filled with confusion,
