Love Island fans have nothing but praise for ITV bosses after the sixth episode of series 12 ruffled feathers between couples.
Sunday night saw a huge plot twist which shook things up between Helena and Harry, but particularly Meg and Dejon.
For the first time in worldwide Love Island history, the girls watched exactly what the boys get up to as it happens - and the lads had no idea.
As day dawned in the villa, Harry got a text, saying: 'Boys, clear your schedules and get ready to leave the villa! #brotime #beersandbants.'
After the boys and new bombshells Emily, Malisha and Yasmin returned to the villa, Meg and Helena had some stern words for their men.

Meg clashed with Malisha as she returned to the villa after her date, unbeknownst to the fact that she was being watched.
'You failed the test,' Meg told him, adding: 'I'm not here to play games.'
Dejon and Malisha cosied up together later on in the episode, as they laughed over Meg's reaction.
The girls were later arguing as Meg told Malisha: 'I say it with my chest,' to which Malisha answered: 'Who is she talking to?'
However fans watching from home were loving the new format, with many saying it was 'entertaining' over on X.
'I love this twist it's caused chaos #LoveIsland #LoveIslandUK,' one penned.
Another wrote: 'Is Meg doing a lot? yes. is it entertaining? yes. #loveisland'
A third added: 'I just can't even judge her because I too would be crashing out.'
