It ended with a heart-breaking moment for Samie Elishi, who was left in tears, comforted by all the girls after a tough emotional blow.
This 13th episode mainly focused on the heated argument between Sean and Scott, along with the ongoing love triangle between Samie, Ciaran, and the new bombshell Lucinda. To find out what unfolded, keep reading.
The episode kicked off with a light-hearted but fiery game called It’s Giving near the fire pit. Each islander had to pick a box containing a particular “characteristic” and gift it to another islander they felt best matched it, explaining their choice in the process.
It’s Giving Game – Who Gave What:
- Curtis gifted the Green Flag box to Millie.
- Lucinda gifted the Sexy box to Ciaran.
- Samie gifted the Gossip box to Scott.
- Shaq gifted the Boring box to Leanne.
- Jess gifted the Game Player box to Shaq.
- Leanne gifted the Return Home Ticket box to Jack.
- Scott gifted the Stirring the Pot box to Sean.
- Helena gifted the Drama box to Scott.
- Tommy gifted the Childish box to Scott.
- Konnor gifted the Long-Term box to Whitney.
- Millie gifted the Good Communicator box to Scott.
Tensions quickly rose when Jess gave the Game Player box to Shaq, who retaliated by saying it should have gone to Sean, hinting at Sean stealing Belle from him. Sean refuted this, saying it was just a misunderstanding and a miscommunication.
When Scott gave Sean the box containing the “Stirring in the Pot” characteristic, he said Sean’s behaviour was snakey for what he did to Shaq. Scott further said that Sean makes others feel sorry for him, and that he (Scott) was right about what he said about Sean when he arrived in the villa (referring to calling Sean the worst islander in history). Sean mounted a strong and unexpected rebuttal, accusing Scott of bullying him all the time.
After the game, Scott told Curtis that Sean’s accusation was massive, claiming, “He makes people feel sorry for him, even I do now, but that was never my intention.” Curtis promised to talk to Sean about it.
Meanwhile, Sean was seen crying while talking to Jack and Tommy, saying, “I used to be like Scott back in the day, but I’ve changed.” Both boys comforted him, joined later by Belle, who also consoled him.
The Love Triangle: Ciaran, Samie, and Lucinda
Later, Ciaran and Samie shared a romantic talk on the daybed that ended with a passionate kiss. Samie later told the girls at the bar about the kiss, clearly smitten.
However, Lucinda soon pulled Millie for a chat. Millie shared that Samie told her about the kiss, and cautioned Lucinda that Ciaran seemed to truly like Samie, advising her not to settle for being “second best.” Lucinda seemed to agree.
At the same time, Ciaran was with the boys, boasting about the kiss and admitting that Samie made the first move, saying, “It was really good.”
Soon after, Lucinda pulled Ciaran aside and told him she wanted to stop getting to know him, saying the kiss hurt her. Ciaran claimed the kiss with Samie “just happened in the moment” but said he respected Lucinda’s decision, even though he was sad they couldn’t continue.
That night, after brushing their teeth and getting ready for bed, all the girls slept with their respective partners.
The Morning After
The next morning, Ciaran pulled Lucinda for another chat. She told him she felt blindsided by his kiss with Samie. Watching from afar, Samie told the other girls she’d never fallen out with another girl over a boy before. Ciaran told Lucinda that while he liked Samie, he still wanted to get to know her, too.
Elsewhere, Sean expressed to Whitney, Tommy, and others that Scott always goes personal during arguments. He said Scott should have spoken to him privately rather than embarrassing him in front of everyone.
Eventually, Sean pulled Scott aside for a chat, telling him, “You embarrassed me last night, and I didn’t appreciate that. It feels like bullying.” Scott replied, “I’m not gunning for you. We can agree to be civil, we don’t have to be friends, and frankly, we can’t be.”
Later, Belle told Sean she found his vulnerability attractive, saying, “It shows you have a heart.” Sean then told her about his civil agreement with Scott.
Meanwhile, Scott was seen getting close to Leanne on the terrace and recapping his chat with Sean. He said he didn’t intend to make peace, adding that he wasn’t keen on being friends with him and even jokingly referred to Jack, Tommy, and Sean as “the three little musketeers.”
A Heartbreak for Samie
Later, Ciaran had another talk with Samie, telling her they should pause their physical closeness “out of respect for Lucinda.” He explained that he didn’t want to make Lucinda upset or make it seem like he and Samie were exclusive in the villa because he still wanted to explore other connections.
Hurt by his words, Samie walked off to the dressing room in tears. Millie, Helena, and Whitney were seen comforting her, marking the emotional end of the episode.
