Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Hey that folks.
- 0:02Speaker 2: It is Wednesday, July eighth, and Love Island, Season eight,
- 0:06Speaker 2: episode thirty one is in the books. And if this
- 0:10Speaker 2: episode had a title to it, it should have been
- 0:12Speaker 2: called why is Kada still crying? Why is Dylan still here?
- 0:16Speaker 2: And why is k C back in our hearts? And
- 0:19Speaker 2: with that, welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ Rope.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Were you crying again? I was, you're crying again?
- 0:26Speaker 3: Yeah, you fell asleep and I had no one to
- 0:28Speaker 3: celebrate with. I was so there were tears of joy.
- 0:31Speaker 3: It was so exciting. Yes, k C, he is now,
- 0:38Speaker 3: he has worked his way back into our hearts. I
- 0:41Speaker 3: think that was a really good way to put it.
- 0:43Speaker 3: His vulnerability, the sweetness on his face, the authentic love
- 0:49Speaker 3: and excitement and willingness to commit that he had written
- 0:53Speaker 3: all over him was on full display. I thought it
- 0:57Speaker 3: was beautiful.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Do you realize who you're talking about?
- 1:02Speaker 3: K C?
- 1:03Speaker 2: That five episodes ago you all wanted to take out
- 1:08Speaker 2: to the woodshit?
- 1:09Speaker 3: Absolutely true?
- 1:11Speaker 2: And that is the beauty sometimes for this show Robes
- 1:13Speaker 2: And that's the beauty, Yes, of seeing somebody at their
- 1:17Speaker 2: worst and at their best.
- 1:18Speaker 1: It's all who he is.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Look, I don't feel I feel like some of them
- 1:23Speaker 2: right now seem to be playing the game after they
- 1:25Speaker 2: hear how America voted and whatnot. He doesn't come off
- 1:29Speaker 2: as anything other than authentic right now. Maybe he's playing
- 1:32Speaker 2: the game a little bit. But Robes, we have seen
- 1:34Speaker 2: him at his best and at his worst, and both
- 1:40Speaker 2: of them are extremes. Yeah, the good size is extreme due, it's.
- 1:45Speaker 3: True, but I also feel like, look, everyone, this actually
- 1:49Speaker 3: plays right into the narrative that people love in this
- 1:53Speaker 3: country and probably around the world. Where you've got somebody,
- 1:56Speaker 3: they're flawed, they mess up, they fall down, they falter,
- 2:00Speaker 3: and then they rise from the ashes and are redemptive,
- 2:04Speaker 3: and that's exactly it seems like. Look, they're all part
- 2:07Speaker 3: of case. But he's learning, he's growing, and it speaks
- 2:09Speaker 3: to the impact and power that relationships have on people.
- 2:13Speaker 3: What the wrong relationship will contribute to your energy and
- 2:17Speaker 3: your life and your demeanor and how you act, and
- 2:20Speaker 3: how the right relationship can actually change and bring out
- 2:24Speaker 3: the best in you. And it's on full display. So, yes,
- 2:27Speaker 3: we saw that full arc with KC and it's actually
- 2:31Speaker 3: just been beautiful to watch and a lesson for all
- 2:34Speaker 3: of us that don't be so quick to judge. Don't
- 2:37Speaker 3: be so quick to say someone's bad. Don't be so
- 2:41Speaker 3: quick to judge someone's character based on a specific situation
- 2:47Speaker 3: that you don't know how you would act if you
- 2:49Speaker 3: were in it.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I just hated folks are ready to throw them away,
- 2:52Speaker 2: Just throw away somebody who exhibits, Yes, some pretty ugly,
- 2:55Speaker 2: some pretty bad behavior, but roods, I am glad I
- 3:00Speaker 2: didn't know. I don't know this guy and didn't have
- 3:02Speaker 2: high hopes. But I'm saying in everything else we saw
- 3:06Speaker 2: about him, there were things that I did recognize from
- 3:10Speaker 2: I mean just guys I have known over the years,
- 3:13Speaker 2: and why people were just we'd never seen that behavior before.
- 3:16Speaker 2: This is how guys talk or whatever. It doesn't mean
- 3:18Speaker 2: it's the end of the world or he is the
- 3:20Speaker 2: worst person in the world, even though we can condemn
- 3:22Speaker 2: the behavior ropes without throwing away the human being. And look,
- 3:27Speaker 2: he's made a comeback to where you sabine every woman
- 3:30Speaker 2: who was sitting on the couch with us robes and
- 3:32Speaker 2: I'm the only dude sitting there. Man, y'all, I wish
- 3:35Speaker 2: we had video. There was no way casey he could
- 3:39Speaker 2: come back into you all's hearts and.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Here he is, you know what those were?
- 3:42Speaker 3: He he saw that behavior on movie night. I think
- 3:46Speaker 3: it really resonated with him. It hit him hard when
- 3:48Speaker 3: he saw what he looked like, he saw what he
- 3:51Speaker 3: sounded like. He owned it and he made amend. And
- 3:55Speaker 3: I think that was beautiful. And it was funny because
- 3:58Speaker 3: I was trying to actually pull up the text that
- 4:01Speaker 3: I got last night, me me dead ass crying about
- 4:05Speaker 3: Casey and TT. That was so adorable. So yes, we've
- 4:08Speaker 3: gone from not liking that couple at all when they
- 4:11Speaker 3: walk back into the villa from Casa Amore to rooting
- 4:14Speaker 3: for their long lasting love story. I want to see
- 4:17Speaker 3: them get married and have kids. Like That's where I
- 4:19Speaker 3: am right now. That's how beautiful this episode ended. But
- 4:24Speaker 3: it began. There was a lot of speculation before last
- 4:27Speaker 3: night's episode that someone was getting dumped, and not just anyone.
- 4:30Speaker 3: People were convinced that Dylan and Kenzie were gone because
- 4:35Speaker 3: people the sleuthing that is going on behind the scenes
- 4:38Speaker 3: to try and figure out what's happening. There were a
- 4:40Speaker 3: couple days ahead of us in Fiji before they air,
- 4:43Speaker 3: and Dylan there was activity on his social media accounts.
- 4:46Speaker 3: It appeared as if he had suddenly followed Islanders, Jaden,
- 4:50Speaker 3: Sean and Zach. How could he have done that if
- 4:52Speaker 3: he didn't have access to his phone. If he has
- 4:54Speaker 3: access to his phone, he must have gotten dumped. None
- 4:58Speaker 3: of it was true.
- 4:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I people really really thought they knew how this
- 5:02Speaker 2: was going to break down, and it I guess Robes,
- 5:05Speaker 2: I was surprised at the idea that he if they
- 5:08Speaker 2: knew he was on standby to come onto the show.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I was surprised to hear.
- 5:14Speaker 2: That he would have been able to play around in
- 5:17Speaker 2: his phone that much if he was in waiting. But
- 5:20Speaker 2: then on the other side of that, Robes, if he
- 5:21Speaker 2: had just gotten kicked out, I'm pretty sure they would
- 5:25Speaker 2: have said to him, pretty, you're not going to.
- 5:27Speaker 1: Be able to fill. They wouldn't have let him have
- 5:29Speaker 1: access to that because it would give it away.
- 5:30Speaker 3: So I feel like the producers are smart enough to
- 5:33Speaker 3: know that people at home are smart enough to figure
- 5:35Speaker 3: out when someone has activity on a phone they're not
- 5:38Speaker 3: supposed to have access to that. That would mean something
- 5:42Speaker 3: or it would point to an outcome on the show.
- 5:44Speaker 3: So the idea now is people think, well, yeah, he
- 5:47Speaker 3: was on his phone before he actually entered the villa,
- 5:50Speaker 3: so he had already seen who some of the players
- 5:54Speaker 3: were and had already followed them before he even got there.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Son, Dylan, Still he's.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Still there, Christ Yeah, Dylan is still in the night.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Did he have last night? And again, as you said,
- 6:05Speaker 2: I fell asleep last night late. I watched fully the
- 6:08Speaker 2: episode this morning, Yes you did. Once again, Dylan is
- 6:11Speaker 2: just I guess he's trying to come around and say
- 6:15Speaker 2: I forgive you, Kinsey and we can move forward kind
- 6:17Speaker 2: of a thing.
- 6:18Speaker 1: But I don't get this guy.
- 6:20Speaker 3: Yeah, she said nothing different than she had said to
- 6:24Speaker 3: him several nights in a row, but somehow it finally
- 6:26Speaker 3: stuck with him and he was willing to move on
- 6:29Speaker 3: and move forward. But look, the episode began with the
- 6:32Speaker 3: girls getting a message. I believe it was a Naya,
- 6:35Speaker 3: and she had to sneak and wake up all of
- 6:37Speaker 3: the girls and get out of the villa without any
- 6:40Speaker 3: of the boys noticing. I was shocked that the boys
- 6:42Speaker 3: all slept that hard. None of them woke up.
- 6:46Speaker 1: I think they might have. This might have been some editing.
- 6:49Speaker 1: None of them woke up.
- 6:50Speaker 3: Seven dudes, Yeah, you would have known if I got
- 6:53Speaker 3: out of the bed.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Seven dudes, Yeah, okay, seven dudes didn't notice seven women.
- 6:59Speaker 2: One out of the seven felt I think this might
- 7:01Speaker 2: have been some editing, and that's fine.
- 7:03Speaker 1: And dandy, but you can't.
- 7:04Speaker 3: It was shocking to me.
- 7:06Speaker 1: They had to change.
- 7:08Speaker 3: They were actually crawling on the floor and then like
- 7:11Speaker 3: quietly tiptoeing upstairs. And they kept showing the boys sleeping.
- 7:16Speaker 3: It showed since you're sleeping like two hours past, the
- 7:18Speaker 3: other guys no clue that Melanie had escaped the hideaway
- 7:22Speaker 3: and went off. They went to a water park and fine,
- 7:25Speaker 3: it was fun and exciting. While they were gone, Casey
- 7:29Speaker 3: announces to the boys that he is going to ask
- 7:31Speaker 3: t T to be his girlfriend, and so they set
- 7:34Speaker 3: up a scot That also seemed very like how did
- 7:37Speaker 3: they know that there was an opportunity? Now the girls
- 7:39Speaker 3: are gone, so the boys can set up to scavenger
- 7:42Speaker 3: hunt so that t T will be surprised when they
- 7:45Speaker 3: come back and he can officially ask for to be
- 7:47Speaker 3: the girlfriend. That was convenience.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Is it this show that does scavenger hunts? I know,
- 7:51Speaker 2: I've seen in some other shows just scavenger hunts.
- 7:55Speaker 3: I know it's the thing. It's fine, it worked, and yes,
- 7:58Speaker 3: so while they're doing more drama, even though it seems
- 8:02Speaker 3: like all the girls are getting along at this water park,
- 8:05Speaker 3: the seeds are being planted, and it ended up with
- 8:08Speaker 3: Kada just spiraling at the end of the show. But
- 8:10Speaker 3: Trinity kept insisting Kada and Zach were in a situationship
- 8:17Speaker 3: and that her announcement, which she announced everyone that they
- 8:20Speaker 3: were now she and Zach were exclusively dating. Trinity was like,
- 8:25Speaker 3: I'm sorry, why are you not just boyfriend and girlfriend?
- 8:27Speaker 3: And there was a lot of questions, and that it
- 8:29Speaker 3: kept going. The conversations happened where then Kada's talking to Kenzie,
- 8:36Speaker 3: then she's talking back to Zach, and meantime Trinity's talking
- 8:39Speaker 3: to other girls and they're all debating on whether or
- 8:41Speaker 3: not they're in a situationship or in an exclusive dating situation.
- 8:45Speaker 3: But it all stems from the fact that Zach just
- 8:48Speaker 3: wouldn't go ahead and say we're boyfriend girlfriend.
- 8:51Speaker 2: She agreed to that as well. You questioned, you said
- 8:54Speaker 2: she didn't really she just went along with it because
- 8:56Speaker 2: of him, But she did say she was okay with it,
- 8:59Speaker 2: to point that I was convinced that okay, she was
- 9:02Speaker 2: okay with it.
- 9:02Speaker 1: She hasn't been.
- 9:03Speaker 2: Shy about telling him she had a problem with something
- 9:05Speaker 2: going on with it.
- 9:06Speaker 3: Correct, But this is about moving your relationship into another place,
- 9:10Speaker 3: and you don't want to be seen as pushing a
- 9:13Speaker 3: guy into a label or into a category of a
- 9:17Speaker 3: relationship unless he's fully on board. So she's treading carefully.
- 9:21Speaker 3: But to me, the fact that she ended up at
- 9:23Speaker 3: the end of this episode crying, that shows that she
- 9:27Speaker 3: is insecure about the relationship. She kept saying she doesn't
- 9:31Speaker 3: care what other people say. That's hilarious. She absolutely cares
- 9:34Speaker 3: what everyone's saying. That's why she was brought to tears.
- 9:37Speaker 3: And then to have it culminate with Casey putting on
- 9:39Speaker 3: this big, beautiful, amazing production of asking t T to
- 9:45Speaker 3: be his girlfriend. That just was salt in the wound
- 9:49Speaker 3: for Cada because now you've got people getting asked to
- 9:52Speaker 3: be girlfriend boyfriend, and she's got the exclusive dating and
- 9:55Speaker 3: she's trying to defend it. But deep down, she's a
- 10:00Speaker 3: she's spiraling. She's insecure, there's no question that's going on.
- 10:03Speaker 3: I felt for her, but she needs to calm down.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Oh she doesn't, And it's okay, bro, she just doesn't
- 10:09Speaker 2: realize it's it's the way it's coming off. Yeah, so
- 10:12Speaker 2: the rest of us, like you said, entitled, it's coming
- 10:14Speaker 2: off as a little petty at times, it's coming off
- 10:18Speaker 2: as mean at times, but you can recognize what you
- 10:21Speaker 2: see in her robes is that this is someone who
- 10:24Speaker 2: is trying to defend a decision she made that's not
- 10:28Speaker 2: being received the same way by everybody else. And if
- 10:30Speaker 2: she was confident in it, she'd be able to say, well, no, no, no, no, guys,
- 10:33Speaker 2: this is what I'm doing and this is why. And
- 10:36Speaker 2: she is is that this is insecurity one. Oh frickin' one.
- 10:41Speaker 2: What's happening with Kaita? And it's and it is and
- 10:45Speaker 2: everybody's liked her, but rotes her stock is falling this weekend.
- 10:49Speaker 2: How she has not just my feelings are hurt. It's
- 10:53Speaker 2: too bad that people aren't really thinking we're one of
- 10:57Speaker 2: the favorites.
- 10:58Speaker 1: It's no, no, no, no, Casey sucks.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Well your relationship's bad over there, Well what about them?
- 11:02Speaker 2: Over She's putting every down robes and it's coming.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Off at this entitled.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Pretty girl, little miss popular in school who's upset that
- 11:16Speaker 2: can't believe everybody doesn't like her, and she's lashing out
- 11:19Speaker 2: at the rest of you who aren't as pretty or popular.
- 11:22Speaker 2: I'm not saying this is who she is. We don't
- 11:24Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. It gives that that's what it
- 11:25Speaker 2: comes off, and nobody likes that.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Correct and I don't, and I know she doesn't recognize.
- 11:30Speaker 3: I don't think she's a bad person at all. She
- 11:32Speaker 3: seems like she does a good heart, and she's a
- 11:34Speaker 3: girl's girl and all of that. But she actually at
- 11:37Speaker 3: one point said to Zach that Trinity needed to get
- 11:40Speaker 3: off her high horse, which to me that was the
- 11:42Speaker 3: window into where she really is. She's jealous that Trinity
- 11:46Speaker 3: got asked to be a girlfriend, and that Trinity and
- 11:48Speaker 3: Bryce our boyfriend girlfriend, and she wants to act like
- 11:51Speaker 3: she thinks that's moving too fast or isn't real because
- 11:53Speaker 3: they haven't tested their relationship outside the villa. YadA YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA. Yeah,
- 11:58Speaker 3: her crying, her getting defends if her now saying Trinity's
- 12:01Speaker 3: on a high horse. That all spoke very loudly to
- 12:06Speaker 3: the idea that yes, she is operating out of a
- 12:09Speaker 3: defensive position and an insecure position, and I'm trying to
- 12:12Speaker 3: actually feel some pity towards her instead of annoyance. Because
- 12:17Speaker 3: she's suffering, but by her own hand.
- 12:20Speaker 1: I do.
- 12:20Speaker 2: I feel sorry for her and your heart goes out
- 12:22Speaker 2: to it, and there's empathy in what I'm recognizing with her,
- 12:26Speaker 2: but it makes it difficult when she lashes out in
- 12:30Speaker 2: the way in which she's doing it, and the high
- 12:31Speaker 2: horse thing. I forgot about that. There is a sense
- 12:34Speaker 2: right of we use the word entitlement, you say indulgent sometime.
- 12:39Speaker 2: But it's almost like she's speaking like she's above Trinity,
- 12:44Speaker 2: like nobody in here should have something better than me
- 12:49Speaker 2: or mine. It's almost as nobody's as hot as I am,
- 12:53Speaker 2: nobody has as good a relationship.
- 12:55Speaker 1: As I am. It just it's feeding into that thing
- 13:00Speaker 1: that Robes is.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Wildly unattractive for a young lady who has been doing Gangbuster.
- 13:05Speaker 2: She's been entertaining on this show. She's been fun on
- 13:07Speaker 2: the show, and she's played it fairly well I think,
- 13:10Speaker 2: and been authentic in her relationship. I think, But man,
- 13:15Speaker 2: it's her her stock.
- 13:16Speaker 3: I know.
- 13:16Speaker 2: For me, Robes, I hate how she's going about it
- 13:19Speaker 2: because she's putting you can't go after Trinity.
- 13:21Speaker 3: No, no, no, you know what she's just calling it
- 13:24Speaker 3: like she is. I have to say she didn't have Trinity,
- 13:26Speaker 3: she didn't have to push maybe so hard because obviously
- 13:29Speaker 3: it was upsetting Kada. But she was like, look, if
- 13:31Speaker 3: it's good for you, it's great for me, but it
- 13:35Speaker 3: ain't what you're saying. It is because her question, and
- 13:37Speaker 3: I think she was saying this in defense of Cada
- 13:40Speaker 3: in a way, like, don't be believing him. Then somehow
- 13:43Speaker 3: you're just in this exclusive dating. If he's not willing
- 13:45Speaker 3: to say, let's be boyfriend girlfriend, you should maybe have
- 13:48Speaker 3: a guard up, You should maybe keep one eye open.
- 13:50Speaker 3: You should maybe just be aware that there is a
- 13:53Speaker 3: reason why he's not taking that next step. And I
- 13:56Speaker 3: think she was saying it in defense of her to
- 13:58Speaker 3: protect her, like, just recognize that he didn't ask you
- 14:02Speaker 3: fully to be committed. He's stepped he took a step
- 14:08Speaker 3: short of that.
- 14:09Speaker 2: The Finn that we just had a debate about this
- 14:11Speaker 2: a couple episodes ago. Women sometimes what they want to
- 14:15Speaker 2: be supported if they're with their guy or against their guy. Right,
- 14:19Speaker 2: And now she's with her guy and she's getting pushedback
- 14:22Speaker 2: about it.
- 14:24Speaker 3: She doesn't like it exactly. She doesn't feel like Trinity
- 14:27Speaker 3: is supporting her. But I think a lot of women
- 14:30Speaker 3: could look at it from the outside and say, actually,
- 14:32Speaker 3: Trinity is supporting her. She is trying to warn her friend. Hey,
- 14:37Speaker 3: there is a reason why he's not going to the
- 14:41Speaker 3: boyfriend girlfriend, and you should just acknowledge that that's what
- 14:44Speaker 3: she's trying to do, I think as a friend. But
- 14:47Speaker 3: it's not being received that way.
- 14:49Speaker 2: You guess say you say you see it from the
- 14:51Speaker 2: outside because women are watching this, But if you were
- 14:53Speaker 2: sitting in the position of Kaita, don't you think a
- 14:56Speaker 2: lot of women's reaction would be the exact same. Yes,
- 14:59Speaker 2: if you were sitting in the position of Trinity, wouldn't
- 15:02Speaker 2: a lot of times your reaction be the exact same, like,
- 15:05Speaker 2: come on, girl, come on. But I think I absolutely
- 15:09Speaker 2: believe this Caada would have taken that advice differently if
- 15:12Speaker 2: it was coming from a man. If one of the
- 15:14Speaker 2: guys I agree with you and there I pulled her aside,
- 15:16Speaker 2: she wouldn't feel any jealousy or judgment.
- 15:19Speaker 1: But because it was.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Coming from even Trinity might have been the last person
- 15:23Speaker 2: to give her that advice. Because Trinity is doing so
- 15:26Speaker 2: well in her relationship, who are you to tell me?
- 15:28Speaker 2: This whole thing broes plays out and it came out,
- 15:32Speaker 2: and it's been coming out for two or three episodes
- 15:34Speaker 2: with Kada, Yes, the worst of one.
- 15:35Speaker 3: You mentioned the word judgment. She used that word. She
- 15:38Speaker 3: felt judged, and so that is where people start to
- 15:40Speaker 3: get defensive and start to lash out the girls. She
- 15:43Speaker 3: said it to Zach, and Zach is not helping. Zach
- 15:47Speaker 3: is playing the role of a female best friend, saying,
- 15:49Speaker 3: you're right, I can't believe they'd do that. I thought
- 15:51Speaker 3: she was your best friend. He's absolutely playing into this
- 15:54Speaker 3: mindset because he knows he's the reason why she's upset.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Actually she's let's just be she's actually upset that he
- 16:02Speaker 3: didn't ask her to be his girlfriend, and so he
- 16:04Speaker 3: knows he is the root cause of this. He created
- 16:06Speaker 3: this weird thing about not wanting to take the full
- 16:10Speaker 3: step and wanting it to just be a committed what
- 16:13Speaker 3: did he call exclusive relationship, and even Bryce pushed back
- 16:17Speaker 3: on him, like, dude, what is that? So Zach has
- 16:19Speaker 3: created this new label that no one really understands. It's
- 16:23Speaker 3: actually his fault that all of this is happening. So
- 16:26Speaker 3: now instead of acknowledging it, he's like, Yeah, why tri
- 16:29Speaker 3: did he say that?
- 16:30Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 16:30Speaker 3: Why would she do that? That doesn't seem right. Why
- 16:32Speaker 3: aren't they supporting us?
- 16:34Speaker 2: I knew that's where we were going to end up.
- 16:35Speaker 2: This is all the man's I knew that's where we
- 16:38Speaker 2: were going with this.
- 16:39Speaker 1: It's all the man.
- 16:40Speaker 3: No, he has every right to not want to be
- 16:43Speaker 3: boyfriend girlfriend. He has every right not to take that
- 16:45Speaker 3: full step. That is absolutely right. But that is the person.
- 16:49Speaker 3: That is the thing she's most upset by. It's less
- 16:52Speaker 3: about she's comparing her relationship to others.
- 16:57Speaker 2: Which is what everybody does, right, everybody does that. I'm
- 17:02Speaker 2: this is just one of those things robes. He was
- 17:04Speaker 2: honest with her, Yes, honest with what he wanted, honest
- 17:09Speaker 2: with how they wanted to move forward. Her reaction to
- 17:12Speaker 2: his honesty can be whatever it wants to be. But
- 17:15Speaker 2: after he is honest and you accept that as honesty,
- 17:19Speaker 2: she's come back.
- 17:20Speaker 1: And can he be taken to task for it?
- 17:24Speaker 3: No, it's not. I'm actually not blaming him. He is
- 17:26Speaker 3: being honest. I'm actually it's actually her fault. She wasn't
- 17:29Speaker 3: honest with how she felt about his offer. She acted
- 17:33Speaker 3: like she was cool with it, and she kind of
- 17:35Speaker 3: was cool with it until she sees everybody else getting
- 17:38Speaker 3: the elevated status and now she's not okay with it.
- 17:41Speaker 3: But instead of getting mad at Zach or acknowledging that
- 17:43Speaker 3: she actually wasn't really not getting mad at Zach. You
- 17:45Speaker 3: can't get mad at him for how he feels. You
- 17:47Speaker 3: can't get mad about him, at him about where he
- 17:49Speaker 3: wants the relationship to be. But instead of actually acknowledging
- 17:52Speaker 3: and expressing disappointment, she has to point the finger at
- 17:56Speaker 3: someone else. That's what's happening. So I'm not blaming Zach,
- 17:59Speaker 3: I really want to. I'm just saying he's feeding into
- 18:03Speaker 3: her being mad at Trinity because he knows that will
- 18:06Speaker 3: mean she's not actually upset about the status.
- 18:08Speaker 2: We should have done another episode on this totally, because
- 18:11Speaker 2: this now that thing is what sometimes we guys get
- 18:15Speaker 2: confused about. How do you all want to be supported
- 18:18Speaker 2: when you come home and say you ain't gonna believe
- 18:20Speaker 2: what this woman said to me in the break room today,
- 18:23Speaker 2: Like what are you supposed to do? Do you want
- 18:25Speaker 2: some perspective? Or you said, ooh, I can't believe, don't
- 18:27Speaker 2: tell me robes. She said, what right?
- 18:30Speaker 3: I mean, that's what you want. It's what you want
- 18:32Speaker 3: versus what you need. Okay, He's giving her what she wants,
- 18:36Speaker 3: but it's probably not what she needs and that is
- 18:39Speaker 3: a tough position to be in as a boyfriend, I
- 18:41Speaker 3: will fully admit. Now, when we come back, we will
- 18:44Speaker 3: tell you about Well, first of all, let's just talk
- 18:47Speaker 3: about Casey and tt. I'm super excited about this. And
- 18:51Speaker 3: the episode ended with a major vote that is going
- 18:54Speaker 3: to absolutely have some significant impacts come Friday night. And
- 19:00Speaker 3: we got the big old ties about one of our
- 19:02Speaker 3: favorite episodes each season. Families are showing up to Fiji
- 19:08Speaker 3: and welcome back everyone to our Love Island edition of
- 19:20Speaker 3: Amy and TJ. And Yes, last night ended with just
- 19:25Speaker 3: a beautiful love story. I mean, that's how I'm going
- 19:29Speaker 3: to look at it. Casey and t T. I just thought,
- 19:32Speaker 3: I know you weren't a big fan of the whole
- 19:33Speaker 3: scavenger hunt thing, but it was an effort. He did
- 19:36Speaker 3: what he could with what he had to work with
- 19:38Speaker 3: there in Fiji, and at least it showed that he
- 19:41Speaker 3: was putting thought and effort into it. And his facial
- 19:43Speaker 3: expressions to me, that was where I just got chills
- 19:48Speaker 3: and my heart was warm because you could just see
- 19:49Speaker 3: it he was close to emotion multiple times because This
- 19:52Speaker 3: was really hard for him. This was a departure for him.
- 19:55Speaker 3: He said he had always promised commitment to other women
- 19:58Speaker 3: and now for the first he was actually going to
- 20:02Speaker 3: say it out loud and to finally commit to a woman.
- 20:06Speaker 3: And I just thought it was beautiful because it really
- 20:08Speaker 3: did seem and I do believe it was Sincere and
- 20:13Speaker 3: I actually think these two have a real shot at
- 20:16Speaker 3: a relationship outside of the villa.
- 20:19Speaker 2: True, as far as compatibility goes, they are up there
- 20:23Speaker 2: number one or number two, and number two might be
- 20:26Speaker 2: Corbyn and Parmita, but they're gone now. But Rose, it
- 20:29Speaker 2: means you, Sincere and Melanie, Keita and Zach, even Bryce
- 20:34Speaker 2: and Trinery that we love on paper and in person.
- 20:37Speaker 2: They are not necessarily compatible compatible. Everybody would argue that.
- 20:41Speaker 2: But they are cute together and have found their compatibility,
- 20:44Speaker 2: but you wouldn't say it initially. Case and TT Boom
- 20:47Speaker 2: run out the jump. They hit it off and they
- 20:49Speaker 2: have made since ever since.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Yeah, And it was tough coming in because obviously one
- 20:53Speaker 3: of America's sweethearts on this show is Anaya, So Anaya's hurt.
- 20:56Speaker 3: That's a tough position for Casey and t T to
- 20:59Speaker 3: come into. Knowing that a girl that everybody loves has
- 21:02Speaker 3: been hurt by the fact that you just fell for
- 21:05Speaker 3: another girl, and now here's that girl. That girl and Casey,
- 21:08Speaker 3: Tt and k come came into this situation in a
- 21:13Speaker 3: tough spot, so to see that their love and that
- 21:17Speaker 3: their compatibility has absolutely been able to outshine any negativity
- 21:23Speaker 3: about their relationship. Initially, I think that's pretty damn cool
- 21:25Speaker 3: and speaks volumes about what we're witnessing and what we're seeing.
- 21:28Speaker 3: And also those other couples. I didn't realize Zach lives
- 21:32Speaker 3: in Australia and he doesn't even live in the same
- 21:35Speaker 3: country as Cada, And you've got Trinity in Virginia and
- 21:41Speaker 3: Bryce in La but t, T and kc are from
- 21:44Speaker 3: the same place and they have everything working for them. Honestly,
- 21:49Speaker 3: I was so in love with their love last night
- 21:52Speaker 3: that I was thinking that I would absolutely consider voting
- 21:56Speaker 3: for them to win the whole thing.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Oh, it's them or Richman Trinity. Obviously it was nothing
- 22:03Speaker 2: but Bryce and Trinity until two episodes ago.
- 22:06Speaker 1: Who would make eb I wouldn't even.
- 22:09Speaker 2: Consider voting for anybody else number one until now and rogues.
- 22:14Speaker 2: If if you want to start rogues right, considering like,
- 22:20Speaker 2: if you really are picking the couple you think is
- 22:23Speaker 2: going to be okay, the couple has the best shot,
- 22:26Speaker 2: why wouldn't you include in your criteria proximity to each other?
- 22:31Speaker 3: It matters. Long distance relationships are really hard and rarely work.
- 22:36Speaker 3: They can, but man, you add the public pressure, the
- 22:40Speaker 3: publicity them getting back and reading all this stuff on
- 22:43Speaker 3: social media that it can be incredibly divisive to a couple.
- 22:45Speaker 3: We know, but to now not be in the same
- 22:48Speaker 3: city as that person or in some cases in the
- 22:50Speaker 3: same country as that person.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Do you know any and Carl where they are.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Where they're they're no, they're very different. And they were
- 22:56Speaker 3: talking about it too. Carl's in Denver and has a
- 23:00Speaker 3: home in or has a place to visit in Nantucket
- 23:03Speaker 3: they were talking about. And she lives in Atlanta, so
- 23:06Speaker 3: no one is closed it exactly for Melanie and Sincere
- 23:10Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember.
- 23:12Speaker 2: In Miami or something Florida, I think, so she worked
- 23:15Speaker 2: at a shop in La.
- 23:16Speaker 3: Did, Yeah, she's in La So everyone's long distance pretty
- 23:19Speaker 3: much except for TT and KC. And so that's another
- 23:23Speaker 3: reason why I feel like they have a really good
- 23:25Speaker 3: shot at potentially winning, and we voted last night America
- 23:28Speaker 3: voted last night as America. Yeah. Yeah, because they closed
- 23:33Speaker 3: it off only two hours. I wish they kept it
- 23:34Speaker 3: open for twenty four hours. I wish people who watched
- 23:37Speaker 3: it the next morning like you did, were able to vote.
- 23:39Speaker 3: But yes, they voted for who you want to see
- 23:41Speaker 3: in the final four? And so who are your your four?
- 23:44Speaker 2: Okay, already KCTT. You got Bryce in Trinity. They said
- 23:50Speaker 2: you have to vote before it four or wouldn't count ye.
- 23:53Speaker 1: Who am I missing? Obviously? Dylan is never going to
- 23:56Speaker 1: get a vote to mine. And who's the.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Karlin and Nya? And then you have sorry, you have
- 24:01Speaker 3: Sincere and Melanie.
- 24:02Speaker 1: Oh, just by the fault. How many are left?
- 24:04Speaker 3: There are six? There are six couples?
- 24:06Speaker 1: I believe, Well, who am I I'm missing? Somebody?
- 24:09Speaker 3: It's Dylan and it's Carl and Anaya, it's Melanie and Sincere,
- 24:18Speaker 3: it's Bryce and Trinity for sure, and it's Casey and T.
- 24:23Speaker 3: So maybe we just have five couples. Is that? Who
- 24:26Speaker 3: am I missing?
- 24:26Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I feel like we're missing.
- 24:28Speaker 3: Okada and Zach l o L. That's the sixth couple.
- 24:32Speaker 1: You know what? I would have to. I'd have to
- 24:35Speaker 1: throw an Eye and Carl in there and take out
- 24:37Speaker 1: Cad and Zach.
- 24:38Speaker 3: No, but who are the no, there are two, So
- 24:41Speaker 3: two couples, four people.
- 24:42Speaker 2: I'm giving you who I'm taking out, versus giving you
- 24:44Speaker 2: who I'm putting in. That's what we're getting confused.
- 24:46Speaker 3: Oh you're voting. I thought we were voting for the
- 24:48Speaker 3: final four people.
- 24:49Speaker 1: Yeah, two couples. I'm the final four people, final four couples.
- 24:53Speaker 3: I thought it was the final two couples. Am I crazy?
- 24:55Speaker 1: They only have final four?
- 24:56Speaker 3: Oh, final four couples. Oh you're right, I'm losing my mind. Okay,
- 25:00Speaker 3: So we're getting out Kada and Zach, and we're taking
- 25:04Speaker 3: out Kenzie and Dylan. So the four we would choose
- 25:08Speaker 3: would be Carl and Aya. Begrudgingly, see, I would put
- 25:12Speaker 3: Kida and Zach over Karl and Iya.
- 25:15Speaker 2: That could change in a second, but I just like
- 25:17Speaker 2: Anaya and Carl's a nice guy.
- 25:19Speaker 1: Good luck guys.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Okay, that's fair, that's really it's not compatibility at all.
- 25:23Speaker 3: That might be the only difference you and I have.
- 25:25Speaker 3: Because I would pick Zach and Kada over Carl and Aya.
- 25:27Speaker 3: Then we both agree that we would put obviously Trinity
- 25:31Speaker 3: and Bryce, obviously Casey and t T and then the.
- 25:35Speaker 1: Next Melanie and Sincere.
- 25:38Speaker 3: Begrudgingly Melanie and Sincere.
- 25:41Speaker 1: I feel like I am I'm contributing to a disaster.
- 25:45Speaker 3: But they're so good now they're gonna get married and
- 25:47Speaker 3: have kids.
- 25:48Speaker 2: You forgot about that he proposed. It wasn't really a proposal.
- 25:51Speaker 2: It was a step before the proposal, two steps before
- 25:53Speaker 2: they do steps in their relationship.
- 25:55Speaker 3: Here that he hasn't even asked her to be his
- 25:57Speaker 3: girlfriend yet, No, he has not, he says. He says,
- 26:00Speaker 3: he's inching that way. But then I loved Ian made
- 26:03Speaker 3: a funny joke about getting being closed off right now.
- 26:06Speaker 3: I forgot the comparison he made, but it was hilarious, Like, yeah,
- 26:09Speaker 3: there is no such things like.
- 26:10Speaker 1: Saying you're on a diet when you refrigerator is empty.
- 26:14Speaker 3: I love that you just came up with that.
- 26:16Speaker 1: Yeah, makes it. Yes.
- 26:17Speaker 2: So to Jack and Cato's point, why say closed off
- 26:22Speaker 2: at this point, because he's nobody else is coming in?
- 26:24Speaker 2: Obviously he's closed off, closed off, So forget that exclusive
- 26:28Speaker 2: is a step, Rhodes, it is a step. I could
- 26:32Speaker 2: see their argument and he's everybody's giving him a hard time.
- 26:35Speaker 2: I could see what he's talking about, what she's talking about.
- 26:39Speaker 2: When you put that label on what you are, it
- 26:42Speaker 2: comes with an expectation of family, of building something.
- 26:45Speaker 1: We're going towards something.
- 26:46Speaker 2: This means I got when we get out of here,
- 26:48Speaker 2: I gotta get on a plane to Australia to see
- 26:50Speaker 2: my boyfriend. That's a different pressure and as a different label,
- 26:54Speaker 2: and it does rope signals something different going on.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Between the two.
- 26:58Speaker 2: It also signals it can signal wait a minute, why
- 27:02Speaker 2: are we just stopping short? Why are we doing? Why
- 27:04Speaker 2: are we not going to the next step? I see that.
- 27:06Speaker 2: I don't have any problem with what they're doing. I
- 27:08Speaker 2: have no problem with Trinity going wait, what the hell
- 27:11Speaker 2: are y'all doing? But but, as Gabby Burnsteen says, ropes,
- 27:15Speaker 2: if you get worked up by something somebody said to you,
- 27:18Speaker 2: is not what they said or how they said, It's
- 27:21Speaker 2: what's already inside of you.
- 27:23Speaker 1: And she was.
- 27:24Speaker 2: Already to your point, insecure and uncomfortable with something to.
- 27:29Speaker 1: Where that set her off. In third episode in a row,
- 27:32Speaker 1: she's in tears.
- 27:32Speaker 3: Yeah, that is oh so true, And so we will
- 27:35Speaker 3: see what happens on Thursday when the families show up
- 27:38Speaker 3: to Fiji. Sometimes they have them show up the Zoom,
- 27:42Speaker 3: but it looked like from the teas last night that
- 27:44Speaker 3: those they have family members, they flew them to Fiji
- 27:47Speaker 3: and the reaction is priceless. This is an awesome, awesome
- 27:50Speaker 3: episode where you get to see the Islanders as as
- 27:54Speaker 3: I hate to say this, but as human beings who
- 27:55Speaker 3: have families and people who love them, and people who've
- 27:58Speaker 3: been watching, and people who are support vording them and
- 28:00Speaker 3: rooting for them. And they get to meet the significant
- 28:03Speaker 3: others and that's always a big They let their relatives
- 28:07Speaker 3: know how they feel about this person and then they
- 28:09Speaker 3: say what they think. I mean, this has a huge
- 28:11Speaker 3: impact on relationships going forward. So it's a it's a big, emotional, fun,
- 28:16Speaker 3: celebratory episode that we're looking forward to.
- 28:18Speaker 1: Okay again, Okay, what no? I just had another Kida moment.
- 28:24Speaker 3: What was it?
- 28:25Speaker 1: Just the crying and clapping that's all she does? Now?
- 28:28Speaker 3: Oh yeah, she does a lot of clapping.
- 28:30Speaker 2: Why is every why does she for emphasis?
- 28:37Speaker 3: It drives you crazy?
- 28:38Speaker 1: I know a little bit. I understand, well, you know what.
- 28:41Speaker 3: She might be gone as a Friday night, so you'll
- 28:43Speaker 3: at least have Friday night, We're going to find out
- 28:47Speaker 3: the results of America's.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Vote, so they.
- 28:50Speaker 3: Will have to dump two couples. I believe on Friday night,
- 28:53Speaker 3: two couples are gone, and then Saturday and Sunday we
- 28:56Speaker 3: have the final four couples.
- 28:57Speaker 1: That's why she's freaking out Robes. She was already in
- 29:00Speaker 1: the bottom too. That's why she is.
- 29:04Speaker 3: She's spiraling, and she might know that for Zach not
- 29:07Speaker 3: taking the full step of boyfriend and girlfriend, that could
- 29:10Speaker 3: impact how America views them as a couple, which could
- 29:12Speaker 3: impact their fate on the show.
- 29:18Speaker 1: If she just stopped clapping, I might consider this.
- 29:21Speaker 3: Just stop, all right, everybody. We always appreciate you listening
- 29:26Speaker 3: to us. I made me robot alongside t J. Holmes.
- 29:29Speaker 3: We'll talk to you soon.
