Honeymoon is over. back to reality! This episode the couples see where the other lives. Dominique is not feeling Mackinley's "base of operations" as questions if this marriage is really something she wants to go for. Gina does not want to move in with Clint because of uncertainty, but Clint reminds her that they're married and it's not gonna work if they don't interact. Airris is having trouble connecting with Jasmine and only sees her as a friend while Jasmine wants Airris to rip off her clothes. Nicole and Chris' leases are up for their respective apartments so they are at a crossroads to forego and move in with each other or keep their own spots for another year. Shaq and Kirstin has little to no chemistry and Pastor Cal has arrived to try and find out why.

Waters get rough when Dominique feels like she's pulling teeth to connect with Mackinley. Mack doesn't have the gung ho / try anything once spirit that Dom has and it's concerning. Chris has a "crisis" of sorts over his dogs and Nicole comes to the rescue (but shouldn't it be the other way around?). Jasmine calls Airris bossy, but doesn't seem to mind it considering he's taking the lead. Clint is still feeling the after effects of what he said to Gina about him preferring slender/athletic women.  Shaq and Kirstin rate their relationship so far a 7. Is that good or bad?

Things are getting cringe when Macklinley is getting on Dominque's last nerve with his boyish charms and jokes. After that whole "I don't like Red head" remark from Gina last episode, Clint opens up a can of worms saying that he gravitates more towards slender and athletic women. Uh Oh. Jasmine starts to get a little horny for Airris, but doesn't remember 3 days ago when Airris was asking frisky questions and she shut him down. Welp, take this cold shoulder! Nicole and Chris talk about how sex was used as punishment in their last relationships. Kirstein talks about how she doesn't like Shaq's bald head, his sense of humor, so Shaq asks her directly.. what DO you like about me? Wuh Oh.

Mackinley is showing that he might have a yellow tail when it comes to this adventure stuff and Dominique is concerned. Gina confesses that she doesn't like Red Head features on a person, unfortunately Clint is 1000% a red head with all the bells and whistles of one.  Nicole and Chris have an open discussion about kids. Chris definitely does and Nicole is open, but Chris needs an enthusiastic yes if we were to continue down this road. Kirstein blames the pandemic for being closed off and she pleads to Shaq to not stop trying to connect with her. Airris gets mad that Jasmine keeps eating the evil swine aka bacon.

Kirstein tells Shaq that he has to wait for intimacy (the kiss) because kissing might lead to other things she doesn't want to get sidetracked. He doesn't know her emotionally yet and they need to build chemistry (and yet she stay sleeping on this man's chest, *sigh*).  Jasmine is being hunted down by Airris' cousin Fallon who has not liked this experiment since the beginning. Stay on your toes girl! Nicole needs to be protective of Chris's heart as he may take this experiment a little too seriously. Like mother like daughter because Dom is now grilling Mack about the different races/cultures he's been with.

2 more couples get married as the circle is complete. Airris claps at his wife's beauty and thinks the experts did a great job (much to his cousin's dismay). Dominique is cool as a cool cucumber waiting for her turn to wed, as Mackinley describes the type of wife he (physically) wants. Clint doubles down and commits to Gina after seeing her smile, while Kirstin contemplates her husband considering he has two strikes against him already.

"It's been a long road getting from there to here, It's a been a long time but my time is finally near.." Those words spoken by Russel Watson were never truer then this point in my life. As Rifiki says in Disney's "The Lion King", It is Time. So, here I am dipping my big toe back in the dating pool. Is there pee in it like everyone suggests? No, but at times there's a waft of bullshit. It's most definitely "a whole new world" out there. But if you want to get over the hump to Happiness, you got to be able to deal with the nonsense and idiocy . So, I put my big boy pants on and went on my journey to discover what the hell is out there in the dating world and I'm back to report on my findings. Although at times things looked bleak, as the aforementioned song continues, "I got faith of the heart... I'm going where my heart will take me." Hopefully my heart doesn't steer me wrong. Jesus take the wheel.
