NARRATOR: Previously on Married at First Sight ` the newlyweds met for the first time at a cocktail party,... It's probably the most fun I've had in, like, a week. ...where relationships were tested,... My family think you're a joke. Yeah, (SIGHS) it's a nightmare. ...secrets were spilled,... ...and after the dust settled,... My ring is still not on my ring finger, and I don't think that's going to change. ...two couples were left wanting answers. I think that Vicky is trying to stir some kind of problem with our relationship. Haydn has betrayed me, and I can't do it any more. Yeah, it's quite tricky when your wife hates you and doesn't want to talk to you. Tonight, a shock revelation. I said some things... to Haydn that I shouldn't have. I admit that it was not... it was not OK. Our couples move in together. Sweet! Nice. ANGEL: Oh my gosh! I think it's really going to show how we work as a couple. But with outside influences so close by... There's a lot of fake people here. HAYDN ON PHONE: ...will it bring them closer together... In one week, we've accomplished more than probably what a couple has accomplished in two years. ...or tear them apart? He didn't have my back at all. I'm almost ready to throw in the towel. I don't even know what to do. Like, what more can I do? Honestly, what more can I do? (BELL DONGS, HEARTBEAT THUMPS) (FUNKY MUSIC) ...with Jay-Jay, Dom and Randell for breakfast on The Edge, bringing you Married at First Sight NZ. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) TONY: Have you communicated your plans? Does Luke know that you're leaving tomorrow? Well, I do now, yeah. (TENSE MUSIC) Did you want to maybe share with your husband? Yeah, so I fly out of, um, Auckland tomorrow afternoon. Um, and I am out of the country for a couple of weeks. But I don't see us working on this relationship. Like, it isn't going to work out. OK, well, if you feel that way then, yeah. I can't have a relationship by myself. Do you feel like Lacey gave it a real shot? Uh, no. Not at all. Lacey, do you feel like you gave it a real shot? I gave this 110%. But the moment I found out this wasn't working for me, I put new plans into motion, and that's how I work. That's how I get Lacey back to her safe place, and I'm good with that. I know that it's my decision to walk away from this, but I've spoken to my family and friends about it, and` But not to Luke. But not to Luke. And I'm OK with that. Like, it... It kind of doesn't really matter. Like, I can tell you but I don't really think you care, and I don't really think it matters. I was being Lacey who is ready to fall in love and be vulnerable and open and... I got hurt, and I didn't get what I was looking for. And I'm one of these people who once my mind is made up, it's hard to change it. I'd like to open up and be more affectionate when I can, but then, that's just me. I can't really change that. This is who I am. I came into this as myself. I thought, 'If I'm going to do it, I'm just going to be me,' and that's all I have been the entire time. So, we respect your decisions. So all the very best on where life takes you. Thank you. Thank you. OK, all the very best. I can absolutely see why they put us together, but, um, Lacey didn't really feel the same way and, you know, that's entirely up to her. I feel like this experiment was exciting, and I feel like I learnt a lot. Um... And Luke is a nice guy and I hope that he finds, you know, the perfect thing that he is looking for. But I'm not it, and we can pretend that I am, but we know that I'm not. So my wedding ring didn't fit, but then I made this nice ` um, what do you call that ` harakeke flax-woven necklace in Rotorua on our honeymoon, and unfortunately that is all that we'll ever have is honeymoon that ended shortly. That's it. So, um, yay for marriage for me (!) Fantastic (!) (CLICKS TONGUE) Wicked (!) (SOMBRE MUSIC) (INTRIGUING MUSIC) How are you guys going? ANDREW: We're good. VICKY: Good. Yeah? We're good. I feel, like, immensely better after seeing all of that stuff last night and talking to everyone. What was your impression of last night? Oh, wow, I think some people just have been dealing with it all the wrong way, to be fair. I mean, certain people have shut down to their partners. I think something to watch, though, and something to be aware of is to not invest yourselves in other people's relationships at the cost of your own. As much as you can, just keep yourselves away from that static noise around you and concentrate on your relationship and what's right and strong for you. OK, so how do it kind of unfold in real life for you, as a couple? Andrew and I are taking it slow, and we think that is probably the best path for us, because we believe that you need to build a friendship before you can build a relationship. And, I think, some of the times if you have that passion straight away and it's really intense and you're, like, you know, all over each other, and then it will fizzle out, and then you're missing that emotional connection. So I think we are still fairly in friend stage, for now, but it's a work in progress. I think the only thing that I was really struggling with at the get-go is, like, Married at First Sight, I felt like there was so much pressure from everyone to be in love all at once. Yeah, it does feel a bit like that. Like, honestly, I do think that... our match is quite good. Yeah. It's really good. I'm really happy. 'Quite good!' (LAUGHS) It's good. I love it. I think I might be a little bit more attracted to her than she is to me. She knows I'm attracted to her. She knows it. What are the things that you appreciate about Vicky? She's been honest since day dot. She's fun, and she's bubbly. Most of the time. (LAUGHS) Most of the time. Very good morals and a good heart and doesn't want to hurt a soul. That's so nice. Um, you know... The attraction thing, um, I think, like, for me, it's not quite there yet. It's still a work in progress. He's lovely and he does so many things for me, but I'm just, like, 'What is stopping me from finding that physical connection?' So moving forward, what does that look like? Um... It's an interesting question, eh? It's hard to know, really. Yeah. It is very difficult, because marriage comes with, 'Right, so therefore we are in love and this is what we've got to do. 'We've got to be intimate on this time, at this date.' However, you guys both define your own pace, because at the moment, you're transitioning from two individuals into a partnership in the space of a week. Yeah. (LAUGHS) Congratulations on your week as well. We have yet to get down to the nitty-gritty. Andrew has a lot of energy, and it is a little bit exhausting sometimes. It will be good to see what happens, living together, and see if we can survive and that we don't rip each other's heads off. (CHUCKLES) PANI: Hi. TONY: Haydn, good to see you. HAYDN: Hiya. How are you? NARRATOR: Last night, Bel and Haydn left the cocktail party on good terms. But after Bel stayed out with Vicky, she heard something that created an instant rift between her and Haydn. They haven't spoken to each other since and are coming to therapy separate. Hello. Hi. How are you going? Good. Good-ish. Yeah. Yeah. So, 'good-ish'? Yeah, um... Yeah, I think I've probably experienced every emotion in the book the last week. When I'm with Bel, our agendas seem genuine, and we're here for the same reasons ` to just focus on our relationship. But, yeah, I mean it's hard to know. When I don't get any communication, obviously, I just start overthinking that kind of thing, because I just don't have any facts or anything from her to go off. Um... But she won't talk to me, so, yeah. I'm not sure if she's genuine, to be honest. What challenges the ideas of genuineness at the moment? Last night, talking to me on camera, everything looks good, leaves, nothing, so... I'm sure you can understand why I'm questioning, because there's a lot of fake people here. And if they're going to start trying to undermine my relationship with Bel, just so they can get a bit more attention... So, you felt like there was some sabotage going on last night? It pisses me off. I didn't see any sabotage going on, but then thinking about it, that's kind of what I think is going on. My understanding of the things that other people have been saying to her are not 100% clear, but there was an Instagram thing where Vicky messaged me because we'd matched on a dating app ages ago but never met up and she's like, 'Aw, I wish I matched with you,' you know, 'You're more my type,' blah blah. And I didn't directly respond to that. And I understand that she's told Bel that last night. Um, I'm not sure why. Um, so there's that, and then the rest is just quite a bit of speculation. Yeah, I mean, I guess because I've still really got no idea what went on last night after I left, it's a bit hard to kind of think anything else at the moment. Mm-mm, yeah. Genuineness is coming up. It's being thrown around too much, too often, everywhere. But the only person that can dispel that is Bel. It just requires some solid communication, but it's breaking down. So, to us, I think, you guys just require some co-present communication. Yeah, 100%, and that's what I want. So, our plan is to invite Bel in to sit down and have that conversation and to communicate that. But also for you to have the opportunity to communicate your wants and needs and your expectations. Yeah. OK with that plan? Yeah. OK, so we will keep you informed. And we'll try and alleviate as much of that unknown as possible for you both. Thanks. I came into this 100% genuine, so if she wanted to try, I mean I've always wanted to try. So, that hasn't changed. Hopefully she is ready to engage a little bit. We'll see. (BELL GONGS, HEARTBEAT THUMPS) Yeah, (SIGHS) it's a nightmare. So, Bel, how are you? Getting teary already. Tell us what is going on, because at the moment, like, we saw you last night together, and you looked like you were really reconnecting and there were some really beautiful moments going on between you. So can you tell us a little bit about how does it go from these beautiful highs or these lovely connecting moments to, you know, the complete opposite? I could not have imagined the cocktail party to go any better for us. It was such a great stepping stone and I just remember feeling really great and positive and optimistic about where this could go, and I was just really enjoying being there. I overheard a conversation he was having, about me, and it was really positive and I thought, 'This is great. This is really good.' So then after we left the cocktail party, I find out he is messaging someone else, one of the wives, and it went along the lines of that they should have been matched together, not us. One of the things with you guys that we can really see is that your biggest strength is your biggest downfall. You guys have a lot of passion. You have a lot of passion for each other. You have a strong connection, but that brings with it a lot of challenges. And we're hearing a lot of hearsay, and the only way to alleviate anxiety and anxiousness is to eliminate and dispel all of that hearsay, all of the third-person stuff, and only then, can you make a decision that is based on truths and not false information, and not, 'I think', 'she said'. Because when you are together and all that static noise is out, it works ` in isolation. We are putting out fires that are created by other people, and that's not fair to you, and it's not fair to Haydn. It would be wonderful to have you two communicate in a safe environment, with us there, rather than hearsay and conjecture and 'he text this' and 'he said that' and 'maybe he's more into this person' and 'maybe he thinks I'm less into him'. I wonder if that would be one of the ways forward. And that's something that you've got to digest a little bit and you've got to think about. So, the experts told me to process this and take some time to have a think and not let third parties get involved and alter my decision or my thoughts. But that's all I've got to go off at the moment. All I have is this husband who he is telling someone else that they should have been matched, and I'm supposed to sit here and listen to him being genuine and that he really wants to be in a relationship. I am so conflicted. Today, marks the beginning of a brand-new chapter for our newlyweds. BRETT: Here we are. I'll get the door for you. With the honeymoons over, it's time for our remaining couples to move in together to Auckland's Swiss-Bel Suites. Tight squeeze. They'll all stay in the same hotel, but each couple will have their own private suite... I think this is me. 'Claire & Dominic' gives it away. Oh my God! Look! Our name is on it. ...as the experiment now enters the formidable moving-in phase. ANDREW: What?! We've got our own deck. Sweet. Nice. Oh my gosh! But with Claire unwell, Dom is moving in alone. I wish Claire was here to see this. BEN: This is my room. (LAUGHS) Aw, that's awful Oh my god, Brett! There's our wedding picture. Our wedding photo. What? Oh! That's so cool. Oh, they're so awkward. Aw, that's lovely. Very nice. Shame about the great big fat head. I'm talking about me by the way, not her. Poor lady. I'm looking pretty chuffed, like I've won the wife jackpot. The moving-in part of the experiment is hugely important. This is where the couples get real. They spend 24-7 together. They'll have to learn to compromise and adjust in a relatively confined space. This is my room. You can sleep in the other room. Why? Are you not sharing? But there's two beds. OK. Hmm. Oh, your room. (LAUGHS) We'll call this the snore room. This is where I will come to snore, I think. Um, am I actually going to be put in that room? No, I'm joking. (LAUGHS) Claire and I have spent pretty much the last four years living on our own, and we actually find sharing a bed quite hard. So, we tend to go to bed, have a cuddle and then I de-camp. It's always me. I'm a real gentleman, you know? The age of chivalry is not dead, you know that, don't you? Moving in together certainly intensifies the relationship. Would you like the top two or the bottom two? Um, I'll have the top three, you have the bottom one. (BOTH LAUGH) Sad guy! With increased time together, they are going to see everything, and that is the very challenge that most of them are going to have to overcome. But that's exactly where we are going to see growth. ANDREW: So is the wiffey happy? VICKY: Yeah. Good. Happy wiff, happy liff. Things have been progressing much at the same rate as they had been ` slow, steady. Like, it would be nice to get a little bit of affection back every now and again. Like, yesterday she was getting` she was really good. Today she is a little bit not as good. But, in saying that you know, all I am asking at this point is just for, you know, a bit of a hug every now and again and that's fine by me. I want to, like, unpack my stuff. Oh, do it. Yeah, I'm going to. I do get that, but it's just maybe not as much as it could be. It's nice to move in to somewhere, like, nice and with lots of space. There's two rooms. If he annoys me, I can kick him out to the other room. (BELL GONGS, HEARTBEAT THUMPS) Haydn has betrayed me, and I can't do it any more. ANGEL: Adelaide Street. Oh my God! (LAUGHS) It's meant to be. I just love the view. It's a bit different to Lincoln. There's more traffic lights out this window then there is in my whole town. Yeah, it's amazing, eh. It's so much better than I thought. It's incredible. Not that I thought it was going to be bad, but you don't know what to expect, really. It's just so good to finally move into a place together. I think it's really going to show how we work as a couple. There you go. Boom! And we've already overcome the scariest part, and that was meeting each other for the first time. Let's do it. Now we already have, like, a foundation. We are ready to make a skyscraper. DOM: What an amazing place. Let's look at this suite. We've got our own balcony. Oh, poor old Claire. Well, hopefully she'll see it tomorrow, eh? Claire is still in hospital. I really miss Claire, because we've had so much fun together, and suddenly there's this great big sort of vacant spot in my life. Wow! I think I could get used to this. I think things are progressing well. There's so much that's good about our relationship. I really want to continue, but there's not much to work on at the moment because Claire is not here, and, of course, it is early days. There is a lot of time to go. Who knows what is going to happen as the weeks unfold? This is our new home. It is the Blackwell Mansion, named after my family. Iconic. Yeah, I think we are really going to like it here. It's so good to, you know, finally get out of the suitcase, put all my clothes away. A lot of people ask me, you know, how I stay so cute. You need hairspray, so it gives your hair a bit of volume, a bit of height. Deodorant, don't miss that. I'm really not nervous or scared about living with Aaron. I've already been living with him for the week. I don't cook, I don't drive, but I bring a lot to the table in terms of, like, my personality and that kind of thing, do you know what I mean? And good looks, yeah. You can never moisturize too much, so it's really, really important to just have as much moisturizer as possible. People with dry skin have dry lives, so yeah. This is a Pretty Committee regime. Obviously, I have taken note of Aaron's regime, which looks to me, at the moment, like shampoo and some deodorant. So, he has a bit of work to do and that's why the application process takes, you know, a while, because there's a lot you need to learn and (LAUGHS) a lot of people can't grasp it that quick, so that's fine, but, yeah. He's a project of mine. I'm hoping to get it to, like, an A-plus. He'd be sitting on, like, a B-minus. B-minus. So, a bit of work to do, but he's definitely, like, taken on some tips and that kind of thing from me. So, he was looking, like, pretty Christchurch when he arrived, but he's going to leave looking a little bit better. Right. So we are going to see Claire. She's been in hospital, and we've not had time to communicate. We weren't there together with the experts last night. It's a bit of a wild ride, as far as your emotions are going, but it's very exciting. And, as I keep saying, I feel extraordinarily privileged to be doing it with Claire. I'm not sure there's anyone else in this country who we could have so much fun with, really, Claire and I. Hello, babe. Hi. How are you doing? I've got your bag with all your stuff for you. Thank you. I can't get up, sorry. How are you feeling? Yeah, good. Just tired. Tired. Hopefully Claire still agrees with me. Do it till the end and see where it takes us. NARRATOR: As Dom gages his relationship with Claire in hospital, across town, Andrew has high hopes for an exciting treat he's organized for Vicky's birthday. Well, to the swing! Today, well, today is Vicky's birthday for starters, and we are here at the Sky Screamer to make her scream. Are you nervous at all? Nah, I don't really get scared. Neither, he. Neither. I like this kind of thing, so I am looking forward to it. Aw, shit. Are you freaking out? No. (LAUGHS) Oh God. (SCREAMS) (LAUGHS) (YELLS) You're so loud. Whoo! (LAUGHS) Oh my God. Oh! You're so dramatic. (LAUGHS) Oh, you didn't even make a sound! You're incredible! I know. I don't get scared on these things. I didn't scream. She didn't scream. I screamed. You screamed a lot. (LAUGHS) Thanks a lot. That was wicked. Why, are you scared? Yeah, that was cool. Good stuff. Is your heart pounding? It is a little bit, yeah. The first day in the hotel is coming to a close, and Ben and Aaron are hosting a party for Vicky's birthday. So, this is Ben's apartment on a Saturday night. Hello, Benjamin. Hello! ENGLISH ACCENT: 'So, now that you're here, what do you really think of Andy? ENGLISH ACCENT: 'Do you know what? Like, I actually think he's lovely. 'He is lovely. Totally lovely. 'Absolutely lovely. Yeah. 'We do love him. 'Do you know what? He's definitely one of the better husbands here. 'Oh yeah? Yeah, aye.' 'Actually.' But not everyone is in party mode. With Claire still in hospital, Dom is going at it alone tonight. Time for a beer, I think. It was lovely to see Claire today. I miss her, because we spent a lot of time together, had a lot of laughs, and, yeah, I've got no one to share the wine with, Claire. To Claire and a quick recovery. Claire. Bottoms up. Claire said tonight, 'Dom, I want to give it my best shot,' and I feel same. I just want to go down the road and see what is at the end of that fruition. And only time will tell. (FUNKY MUSIC) It's the second day of living together for our newlyweds, but an incident for one couple last night, resulted in an unexpected departure. So last night was our first night ` supposed to be our first night ` in our apartments. Um,... well, I'm staying here at my house. Andrew and I got into... a bit of an argument, and I think, it escalated. Turns out it's Vicky's birthday, so we decided that, you know, as her gay besties, we would host, like, a little drinks here at our new little apartment. Some of my friends came over and some of Ben's friends came over. We were all having a great time. Everything was going all good. I went out with Aaron to do something and one of her friends wanted to come back up the elevator. So we tried to help her, because she couldn't get back up without a key card. I went back inside and said, 'We were just trying to help your friend up. There were a couple of issues.' And she goes, 'What were the issues?' And I said, 'Oh, nothing major. Just a couple. Don't worry.' And she blew up at me massively. Yeah, it all kind of, just started turning a bit nasty between Vicky and Andy. I looked at her and I was just, like, 'Are you serious?' It really escalated from, like, basically nothing, but what I think it was that something was said, Andrew and I were trying to have an argument and then somebody else, I won't mention names, got involved. And it got to a point where I was like, 'Actually, I don't feel like Andy has done anything wrong here.' Then Aaron stood up for me and he said, 'You know what? Actually, this is bullshit. 'You are being so rude to Andrew. He's been so nice to you,' blah blah blah. All the same old stuff. Vicky and I got into a bit of an argument, and I ended up opening the door and kicking her out of the apartment, which didn't go down very well. Andrew and I have always said we will always have each other's back in regards to other people and um... But the minute that this other person said something to me that was quite nasty, he didn't have my back at all. (POIGNANT MUSIC) Um... Andy and Vicky then had a very loud argument in the hallway at about 11 o'clock at night. She said she's not attracted to me, that she doesn't like me. Like, I'm not saying that I wasn't in the wrong at all. Like, I mean, I probably didn't speak to him very nicely, (SNIFFLES) but there was no need for that reaction at all. I've rung her. I've texted her, you know. I said I've missed her and I asked if she's OK and I haven't heard anything back. I can't even face him right now. Like, I just don't even want to see him. I don't even know what to do. I don't know how to go about this. Like, what more can I do? Honestly, what more can I do? (BELL GONGS, HEARTBEAT THUMPS) (POIGNANT MUSIC) ANGEL: This is our first picnic. BRETT: Yeah. Today, it's amazing weather, so definitely need to work on the tan, for sure. I feel like this is something you would actually do for me, every single day of my life, once a week. Yeah, nah, it is. I'm definitely excited to get into the normal routine, because at the moment we've been a bit spoilt. We've been living on this dream, and this is kind of reality. Like, this is how life will be. All right. BOTH: Cheers. To our first picnic. What do you want to do for dinner tonight? We are eating food and talking about food. That's generally what we do. Oh, I want to get chop, chop, chopping in the kitchen. I am actually so pumped. I've said to him from day one like that was my thing. (LAUGHS) What's your favourite? Oh, you like lamb chops, pork chops and sausages? Is that what you like? You make me sound so normal. (LAUGHS) A lot of the times we've had to eat these degustation meals, which is cool, like I'm all for it, but, yeah, I'm a simple Kiwi lad who likes good Kiwi food. A sausage roll would be sweet. (LAUGHS) Hungry? (LAUGHS) There is like enough dip on there to... (LAUGHS) That's all right, isn't it? Cheers. You haven't tried it yet! Cheers. I haven't really thought too much about the honeymoon stage to like the real-life stage, because it's just happened so quick. It sounds weird to say, but I've spent more time in a week with her than, you know, like, you would date for someone for months on end. We're 24-7. (LAUGHS) It's been full on, and I'm looking forward to doing just normal things. Whoo. Just enjoying that for what it is, yeah. I'll put the dishes in the dishwasher. (LAUGHS) Over the past day, Bel and Haydn have finally managed to have a productive chat. But before they decide what the next step is, Tony has arranged for another therapy session, and this time they will be together. TONY: Haydn, Bell, a lot has happened over the last few days, but it is fantastic to see you both sat here together. So, how have things been? So, we had a chat on Friday night, on the phone, which seems to be a better way of communicating for us than via text. We kind of just re-focused back on us and what we both wanted for each other and together as a couple. Since the cocktail party to when you spoke on the phone, all I heard` it was more of a 'he said, she said', and just feeling really alone and really quite down about everything, and so having a conversation really turned everything around, and I kind of opened my eyes to why things happened the way that they did. Haydn and I, we are really, really strong when we are really good, so yeah. I think it is just when we sort of have those miscommunications we are completely, like, World War Three. We seem to click on a number of different levels, so, yeah, I don't know. I could go on all day. But it's just nice that there's so many positives to build on, and I think we'd lost sight of that for a couple of days. It sounds like you've spent the time and you've really got an understand of a well-being strategy. So, in terms of moving forward, what does that look like for you two as a couple? I'm just afraid that those other influences will come back and try and pull us apart again. And who is in control of that? We are. That's us. Absolutely. If you invest and re-focus, then all of that other bits and pieces outside, you have nothing to do with it and it has nothing to do with you. You are better than that, as individuals and together. There's a lot of support there with some of the other couples who are genuinely here for the same reasons we are. So, I mean, we're just ready to move forward with us, yeah. Congratulations. Thanks. And are we over the one-week anniversary? Yeah. It's about nine days. I think we can go with a nine-day anniversary. So congratulations on your nine days. Thank you very much, yeah. No problem at all. Are you going to buy me a coffee for that? Yeah, I might do. I think you should. I think you should. OK, so, we'll be in touch. OK. You know where I am and you know where Pani is as well. Yep. And so we will just keep on supporting you... Thank you. ...to be the best that you can be. Thank you. We feel like we're just keeping our eyes open and hopefully staying away from those people who are trying to manipulate situations. I just want them to stay out of the relationship and focus on their own, yeah. Do you want to put the plates out or are you going to dish up? Oh yeah. You can put the plates out if you like and I'll sort everything else out. Obviously, Vicky and I had a bit of a run-in on Friday night. Pretty big. We took some time apart. We were both pretty pissed off. Tonight, I have cooked Vicky a nice tea. It's something that I like to do. I like to cook. It's always good to show people, you know, another side of you, because she has not seen that, and that's, I think, substantial. I actually, you know, truly, I am sorry for, you know, what happened. Mmm. You know, the whole situation was blown out of proportion. We'd both been drinking. Yeah. The wine was nice, why wouldn't we? But needless to say, I am sorry that I yelled at you. You know, obviously, it was probably a side of me you hadn't seen like that. Yeah. I was upset. Yeah, I was just very surprised because, obviously, I hadn't seen that from you before. Mmm. But in saying that, like, it's not a one-way street. Like, we were both in the wrong. Yeah. We were both yelling at each other. Yeah, and, like, I mean, I didn't speak to you very nicely, and that was not OK and, like, I am sorry about that. It's always nice to say a few apologies and, you know, just kind of finalize the matter and realize that we are OK. I mean, other people got involved as well, and I think that it just was blown way out of proportion. Let's focus on us. Yeah. Let's not try and invest too much time on our friends currently. Make time for our friends but let's focus on us. Yeah, yeah. That chat all the difference. We needed too. There's no point sitting here resenting each other. You've got to talk through it. Cheers. Cheers. I mean, we are grown-ups and we behaved like children, which is ridiculous. I felt like the pressure was high all the time. Yeah. Like, there was that ready to almost, like, breakdown or something. Yeah, it's not good. No. We're going to just forget about it. Move on and just kind of grow from it. I moved back in today and I might even sleep in the spare bed. I don't know. We're not going to just rush into shit again. There's no point. (BELL GONGS, HEARTBEAT THUMPS) Hey, little baby kittens. Just having a night in, watching some tele. I'm getting to watch my own show, while he watches My Little Pony. Life is good. It's the third evening of living together... We're home. ...and our newlyweds have taken to this phase of the experiment in their own unique ways. I'm nervous about the porridge. I think it's going to be too healthy for you. Nah, I'm willing to give it a go. That's all part of the experiment is trying porridge, isn't it? (LAUGHS) One couple that has made it seem effortless is Brett and Angel. It's crazy if you think, like, in one week we've accomplished more than probably what a couple has accomplished in two years. Let's not get over confident. (LAUGHS) People climb Everest in two years. Let's not get... Less than that. It definitely is like an Angel cooking show, isn't it? (LAUGHS) I'm no chef. I'm making this up. I'm just your wife. No, it sounds good to me. It's so nice to like settle into a place that we can actually call our own. It's just really nice to be able to cook a meal, and also it's just so nice to not have to cook alone. See, I would those in a plastic bag. Would you? Yeah. Saves you getting your hands oily. See that's a bit amateur, but... (LAUGHS) No longer a third wheel. Oh my God. You don't know how good it feels to say that, because for years I've been leading the pack in that regard, and I can't wait for someone else to, like, tell me their single stories, and I'll be like, 'Oh god. Well, I don't miss it at all.' Cheers again. Living together. Good stuff. For another couple, it's a late check-in. BEL: Oh, here we are. HAYDN: Here we are. After you. Thank you. No problem. So we've decided to move into our lovely apartment. Ah, the big reveal. Ooh. Ooh. This is nice. Fancy. That's awesome. This is so nice. I'm pretty excited to move in with Bel again, because I feel like we've worked through a lot of our communication issues that were causing us problems. Look at this! You can give me some foot massages and everything. Yeah, sorted. Already at home. Now all we've got to do is get ready for bed. So this is a huge turn around. So, yeah, it's quite positive that it's kind of changed in a day. Our little photos. Do you remember this? Aw, vaguely yeah. Yeah! It was a nice day, eh? It was an OK day (!) I kind of got married to some handsome man. Look at that. Cute. Shot gun this side. Yeah, cool, cool. Yes, and all the wardrobe as well. Yeah, yeah, I'll just keep my stuff in my suitcase. That's fine. Yeah, yeah. That's no problem. Perfect. Just in the hallway would be good, thank you. I think my worry at the moment is coming back into the experiment, moving in, and then those other people in the experiment feeding a lot of ideas or opinions. I think I can be quite naive at times, and I know my eyes are open now, but I am really worried about that happening again. (SIGHS) So are you going to unpack my bags for me or what? No, I don't want to touch your stuff, eh. I might get in trouble. Don't know where to put it all. There's only one bag. We've had discussions about how this experiment and process can look moving forward and how it can be structured so that it's going to allow us to succeed and not have any of the external factors or anyone else in our ear trying to sabotage our relationship. So, I think it will just be a work in progress to minimize that. We're home! Mmm. (CURIOUS MUSIC) ANDREW: How are you going, Haydn? HAYDN ON PHONE: All right. We were going to pull out of the experiment but stay together. Aw, OK. We just wanted it to work for us, not have all these other influences trying to undermine us and that means, like, we didn't really want to interact with certain people who we felt weren't genuine. I just have to be honest with what she said to me once it came out. With Vick? Aw, I mean, I've said it all, I'm sure. You've probably heard that. Yeah, no, she pretty much tells me everything, bro. Yeah. You know? So, basically, probably beginning of the year or last year even, Haydn and I matched on Tinder or Bumble or whatever it was. On like, what was it, the third day of our honeymoon? He messaged me on Facebook. So I just replied. And he was, like, bagging out Bel saying all this really mean stuff about Bel. I said some things to Haydn that I shouldn't have. Um, I said... that we should have been matched. Um, I shouldn't have said that. I 100% percent admit I shouldn't have said that. But I chose to forgive you. I know. I could have left when I wanted. I know. I know. I admit that it was not` it was not OK. I don't know man, like, you can't message people that kind of shit and just expect to keep going. Let's just sort of drop it, leave it in the past, and, you know, try and make amends. Um, at the end of the day, I've got to look after Vick. Yeah. So yeah, all good. All good, mate. Cheers, bro. I'll see you soon. See you mate. He's so full of shit. (LAUGHS) Like... Don't let it work you up. Well, it is, because it's like someone's just talking shit about me, making me out to be this horrible person, when I from the start` You're not a horrible person. Like, I know. I know. It makes me so angry. He's, like, 'I don't want to start drama,' but then he's saying all these things about people, creating drama and then running away from it because he knows he's wrong. That's his thing. He knows he's wrong. That's his thing. Just don't buy into it. Like I said, I'm here to work on us, and I told him that just then. You heard me. I care about trying to make this work. I don't care about making that work, you know? Like, I mean, nobody is perfect. People make mistakes. (SNIFFLES) But it's, like, how you deal with them and how you, like` I mean, I feel bad for Andy, because of course that must be a horrible thing to hear, and, like, I am really sorry about that and, like, I'm not making excuses because I know it was not OK. (SNIFFLES) But it's just annoying because now he's gone and called Andy and tried to make it out like` trying to spin his side of the story to Andy when it's not even (BLEEP)ing true. This is already hard enough. Like, we don't want more drama. Mmm. Um... We've got enough crap going on as it is, don't we? Right! Yeah, exactly. This has like been the most stressful experience I've, like, ever had in my whole life. Come here. (INTRIGUING MUSIC) ...with Jay-Jay, Dom and Randell for breakfast on The Edge, bringing you Married At First Sight NZ. Sunday night, some couples settle into living together... Should we do a cheers to our two-week anniversary? We still have the same connection almost as when we got married. ...while others, break apart. This is just getting right on my (BLEEP)ing nerves. I don't see this working currently right now, and I've kind of given up trying. A late arrival puts strain on a new relationship. DOM: Five days apart is a long time when you've only been married 12 days. It just feels like we are starting again. And one marriage faces the ultimate test. What do you want out of this? I don't know what you're expecting me to do. I have four weeks to decide if I am going to drop my entire (BLEEP)ing life for you. I don't even know you. Captions by Ingrid Lauder.
