Hello, again, Islanders!
How is everybody feeling?
Personally, I feel invigorated.
After a slow week, things finally picked up in the Villas second week.
We said goodbye to three islanders (one of whom I will truly miss) and welcomed three newbies.
Shes not a faithless, lying coquette; shes more like a single lost magnet looking for a match.
He storms around the Villa, slamming things and stomping his feet.
He screams at Ekin-Su to her face and he screams at her from across the yard.
I mean … is she wrong?
Most of the boys seem to think that Davides shitfit is justified.
Paige says, No man talks to a woman like that.
Ikenna says, It was a bit theatrical.
What it was is scary and ugly and completely unnecessary.
Okay, we are officially done talking about Davide for now.
Many were manufactured by Jay.
Here is why Jay is the actual devil.
At least in this Villa, Jay treats relationships as exercises in emotional manipulation.
We all know guys like this in the real world.
I will give this one to Jay because Dami and Indiyah are legitimately the cutest.
Why on Earth would you say this to someone?
Especially someone you know to be insecure and that you are ostensibly trying to date?
Thats not helpful, thats just mean.
This all just sucks.
Nobodys going to win here.
Ugh, Im moving on to things that make me happy: Dami and Indiyah.
They break up amicably, leaving Ikenna looking surprisingly bummed.
Over the next few days, Dami begins very quietly and slowly to pursue Indiyah.
He describes his chats with her as, Fireworks going off, it was weird!
Indiyah says they have flanter, which means flirtatious banter.
Luckily for him, Ive got a text!
The Islanders are gathered around the firepit for a dumping by public opinion.
This time, the final dumping is left to the public themselves.
The lowest votes are for Ikenna and Amber, who are hereby dumped from the Island.
Well, aint that convenient.
Indiyah is crying after losing her best friend in the Villa.
Ah, such is life in the Love Island Villa.
Be grateful, dude.
You got off so easy.
We have to talk about our new additions.
Im an Aries, so Im quite fiery, Danica tells the girls.
You all seem like lovely girls, but I dont know you.
Approaching the dudes, Heyyyy, boys, Danica here!
Danica declares, I am going to step on toes.
True to her word, at the recoupling, she chooses … Luca.
Danica, didnt you know you weresupposedto pick Davide?
Gemma picks Davide just because, and Remi is dumped from the Island.
So, at least hes loyal.
Good for you, Luca.
Our Islanders are now getting busy adjusting to their new realities.
Danica and Davide:Shes giving it the old college try and likes that hes tanned.
Jay asks Gemma who else in the Villa might be open, and she suggests maybe Paige.
Dami and Indiyah:Indiyah says she feels like such a simp.
Dami says, I just feel like shes just so cute.
I feel like I want to protect her and stuff.
Jacques and Paige:They get the hideaway.
You know what happens in there, right?
Luca and Gemma:Gemma tells Luca, Theres no stoppin us.
Luca tells Gemma, elephant juice, because it looks like youre saying, I love you.
Tasha and Andrew:Theyre fine … for now!
Shes Greek with amazing hair and begins immediately dispensing pitch-perfect relationship advice left and right.
Antigoni gets to pick three boys for a three-way date and chooses Davide, Jay, and Dami.
Everyone tells her to relax, which of course she doesnt.
I cant help sensing this barely concealed disdain for her from the other Islanders.
Hes 28, which means Ekin-Su is already all a-tingle.
She tells Jay hes the biggest mug in here and that he deserves an Oscar.
The substance of what shes saying is actually totally accurate.
Jay only picked Ekin-Su because she was the safest choice at the time.
Meanwhile, Paige is extremely uncomfortable with this because shes been very content with Jacques.
I love her!)
But Paige is still distressed!
Eh, fine, he might be growing on me a little bit.
Jay, hey leave this precious angel alone.
Dont worry, everyone, were almost at the end.
Ekin-Su is already all-in.
This is kind of Tashas whole thing, though.
She flirted with the idea of Jacques at first but decided to stick with Andrew.
Then she flirted with the idea of Jay but again decided to stick with Andrew.
Of course shes now toying with the idea of Charlie, even if shes still happier with Andrew.
And nobody is getting dumped.
Luca picks Gemma and tells her, elephant juice.
Dami picks Indiyah, which makes everyone thrilled.
Jay picks Paige because hes the worst.
Charlie picks Ekin-Su because he has a sense of self-preservation, and Tasha looks relieved.
Andrew picks Tasha, of course.
Davide picks Antigoni, despite having wrestled Danicas tongue with his just yesterday.
Leaving Jacques to pick Danica, which he does with a very nice speech.
Other Bits and Observations
I felt like Danica was very into Davide.
So I wanted to give her a geeft Davide on kissing Danica.
What in the Jimmy Neutron is going on with Charlies hair?
Ughhhhggghhh, the spit-swapping challenge.
I was told we were done with these?!
Ekin-Su reveals that her mother is a relationship coach by trade.
I will be struggling with this information for a while.
Luca needs to learn to mind his business, I swear to God.
