Husband jealous after wife says another man is attractive
Troubled couple Amy and Mike have made a milestone by deciding to start each day with a hug to help build their romance.
Emily and Tom are in a good spot since he made the bombshell announcement of having another girl on the outside (which turned out to be fake) at last week's Couples Cove.
Em said she gets 'warm fuzzies' when kissing him and hopes to unlock the next level of their relationship.
Another crate arrives at all six islands, which includes a challenge from the outside world to help push the marriages forward.
This episode's crate is extra special as it contains lollies and popcorn — hello movie date!
However, Amy is soon disappointed to learn that instead of watching her favourite movie, The Holiday, the couples will be looking back at their first meeting at the speed dating event weeks ago.
The one person who had quite an adverse reaction to his partner meeting another woman at the event was Sam.
It seems Sam is trying to hide his jealousy after Jess admitted to the cameras at the dating event that Emanuel is her ideal physical type, with snarky comments.
But apparently he is 'not fazed or threatened' and 'seriously, does not care' about Jess' comments at the time.
'I didn't know you found someone else attractive,' he said.
There's also awkward vibes over in Amy and Mike's camp when he discovers her preferred match was a man known as 'salmon jacket'.
Mike takes it on the chin and Amy feels bad that he had to watch it.

The couple everyone wants to catch up with is Emily and Tom, and Jess is nervous to see what happens when Sam sees Emanuel.
During a massive girl chat, Emily reveals that the situation with Tom's girl on the outside was 'never actually anything' and he was 'self-sabotaging' because he didn't feel a romantic spark.
While things have begun to get better between the pair, the other girls questioned his motives for being on the show.
Meanwhile, over at the boys' group, Sam is maintaining that Jess picking Emanuel doesn't faze him, but makes a jab at Emanuel by saying, 'Dude, don't touch her.'
When they all reunite at the lunch table, Jess hopes her partner doesn't overreact and create issues between them.
But of course, things get explosive.
Sam surprises everyone, including Jess, by saying their match is 'a need rather than a want'.
'I'm not physically there with her yet,' he tells everyone.
Emanuel comes for Sam after accusing him of not letting Jess speak for herself at the table about their situation.
Jess freezes at the table and doesn't say much while the confrontation is going on which leads to Sam saying her not going into battle for him is a 'dealbreaker'.
In episode six, will we see Sam leave the experiment?

What to stream this week: Lena Dunham's new comedy and five more picks
This week's picks include Lena Dunham's London rom-com, season three of a cerebral science-fiction epic, cute animals and sneaky three-season binge. Too Much ★★★★ (Netflix) 'Too much' is the criticism Lena Dunham has heard for much of her career. Too much information, too much nudity, too much self-obsession. An iconoclast in her twenties, when she created Girls, one of the definitive shows of the 2010s, Dunham is now on the cusp of 40, married, and living in London. Too Much, her return to television in the streaming era, is Dunham's unique voice measuring the thirty-something experience from the far side. Deceptively ambitious, it's a cascading, contradictory show. A comic scene-stealer on Hacks, Megan Stalter stars here as Jess Salmon, a New York line producer of television commercials first seen responding to a break-up with questionable judgment. Stalter is a comic force, inhabiting Jess's persona with John Wayne impressions, absurd non-sequiturs, and calamitous self-commentary – her bravura footprint is pitched as a mix of delusion and vulnerability. Seconded to London for work to start over, Jess encounters Felix Remen (Will Sharpe), a cheerfully opaque struggling musician whose chatty calm is reassuring and a barrier. Loading Dunham, who wrote or co-wrote each episode and directed all 10, wants to celebrate and subvert the romantic comedy. This is When Harry Went Mental with Sally. There are autobiographical currents aplenty, including an American making sense of London, but equally smartly interwoven threads on relationship expectations and emotional instincts. 'I cannot leave my own chaos,' laments Jess, but Dunham refuses to hold her protagonist to familiar contours. Jess has a vital monologue when she's casually called 'messy'. The supporting ensemble is overflowing, whether it's Dunham as Jess's depressed Stateside sister Norah or Richard E. Grant as her London boss, or Naomi Watts as his flighty wife. Dunham's ability as a social satirist is strongest now with the privileged, but she's recruiting talent from everywhere – Ripley ' s Andrew Scott features as a moody filmmaker in one episode, while comedian Leo Reich is a performative fireball of gay boy energy as Jess's colleague Boss. The Dunham address book remains immaculate. There's so much going on here – did I mention Stephen Fry as Felix's manipulative father? – that Too Much risks being, well, too much. The connection between Jess and Felix is genuine, but nonetheless fraught. Does it build so quickly because neither can allow for reflection? When you strip everything back, the show is about two people prone to self-sabotage instinctively falling in love and trying to make lasting sense of it. It can be eruptive and lacerating along the way, but there's also room for a rom-com reckoning. It's anything but generic: only Lena Dunham could have made this. Foundation (season 3) ★★★★ (Apple TV+) All credit to this cerebral science-fiction epic: it's not ducking the many challenges involved in adapting Isaac Asimov's series of ground-breaking novels. Entering its third season, this galactic epic continues to marry a vast and knotty plot to pithy characters, sturdy world building, and urgent resolutions. The additions to the source material are extensive, but in a show meant to cover 1000 years over eight seasons the compromises are, like the story's covert cadre of scientists, keeping the plan on track. Loading The plot has jumped forward another 150 years, but a variety of tactics – cloning, cryogenics, automation – keep versions of the original characters involved: the current edition of the galaxy's Emperor, Cleon (Lee Pace), is a druggy nihilist, while the scientist who foresaw civilisation's fall, Hari Seldon (Jared Harris), continues to course correct from the sidelines. Is Foundation too complex for a casual watch? Yes. Is it all the better for it? Absolutely. The new episodes do get a charge from the addition of a crucial Asimov character, a pirate warlord named The Mule (Pilou Asbaek), whose psychic ability to control minds sits outside the many calculations guiding the show's factions. His demonstrations add an element of horror to Foundation, which also has a sly sense of humour sneaking through. Of the many fantastical elements manifesting here, influencer satire was the least expected. Underdogs ★★½ (Disney+) A nature documentary narrated by Deadpool? Ryan Reynolds proves the unlikely successor to Sir David Attenborough in this five-part documentary series from National Geographic. With tongue firmly in cheek, Reynolds is the irreverent guide in this homage to underappreciated species who rarely get top billing. Episode titles such as Superheroes (shout out to the Velvet Worm), Terrible Parents, and Total Grossout give you a fair idea of the content, which comes with satirical flourishes and self-referential slips. It's rated M, but mostly plays as PG. Deep Cover ★★★ (Amazon Prime Video) In this daffy action-comedy, Bryce Dallas Howard plays an American actor in London running improv comedy classes who, along with students played by Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed, is asked by the Metropolitan Police to infiltrate a criminal syndicate. Somehow in this world of guns and poses, the trio make haphazard progress, opening up conspiracies and silliness alike. The supporting cast playing crooks and coppers adds a hard-nosed counterpoint: Sean Bean, Paddy Considine and Ian McShane all try to make sense of the amateurs, some of whom are very good at playing actors who aren't funny. Dear Ms: A Revolution in Print ★★½ (Max) First published in 1972, Ms was the American magazine that helped take second-wave feminism into the mainstream, becoming a newsstand sensation (it remains a quarterly publication today) and setting off misogynist tripwires. With a different director for each episode, this three-part documentary series looks at the birth of Ms, whose founding editors included Gloria Steinem, the way its readership was educated about issues related to feminism, and finally the culture clashes inside and outside the magazine on topics like sex, erotica, and sex work. It's complex but never clunky. The energy then is obvious now. Sneaky Pete ★★★ (Netflix) A three-season binge, on Netflix for the first time, this blackly comic 2015 crime drama, created by David Shore (House) and Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston, was part of Amazon Prime Video's initial wave of knotty anti-hero series. Giovanni Ribisi plays a con man just released from jail, who dodges those waiting to harm him by posing as his cellmate and taking up with his mark's estranged family. Given the clan's criminal connections, it's an out-of-the-frying-pan-into-the-fire move, as the new Pete Murphy struggles to keep up. MVP cast member: Margon Martindale as a menacing matriarch.

'It's the principle': Sunrise weatherman Sam 'Mac' McMillan calls out 'sparkling scam'' hitting diners across the country amid cost-of-living crisis
Sunrise weatherman Sam 'Mac' McMillan has issued a warning to Aussie about what he's calling the "sparkling scam". The 42-year-old Channel Seven favourite took to social media on Tuesday to share his outrage after being hit with a $12 bill for a one-litre bottle of San Pellegrino at a restaurant, all because he said "sparkling" when asked what water he wanted. "I said sparkling," Mac wrote in text over his video, filmed from the table. "And suddenly I was the next victim of the #SparklingScam." In the clip, the father-of-two shook his head in mock disbelief before turning the camera to the high-end bottle sitting on the table. "Not today bro!" he declared, before knocking back several glasses. "I will drink that one litre of sparkling water whether my bladder likes it or not." "It's the PRINCIPLE!" he added. "They are fully aware it's available in 250ml bottles." While McMillan didn't name the restaurant, he did post a photo of the receipt showing the bottle cost $12.00, sparking a flood of comments from followers who felt his pain. "This might be a little niche… but is anyone else onto the #SparklingScam," he captioned the post, which was reshared to his Instagram Stories. Fans were quick to back him up. "I'm with you on that, Sam! Let's spread the word!" one user wrote, while another added: "Biggest rip-off ever- should be free whether it has bubbles or not as most can just put it through an aerator." Famous friends joined in too, with The Cockroaches frontman and former Wiggles manager Paul Field dropping two laughing emojis, while Dancing with the Stars champ Aric Yegudkin admitted: "Hahaha I get done every time too." Still, not everyone agreed, with one follower leaping to the defence of the sparkling offender: "It's San Pellegrino, Sam! It's the Moet of Italian water! You should be smiling and grateful, it's delicious!" Another user pointed out that the Sydney-based weatherman's dilemma seemed like a "big city" problem. "Where was this? There's a bit of big city energy about that," they wrote. McMillan, known for his humour both on and off air, has been easing back into the swing of things after returning from "Dad leave" following the birth of his second daughter. In a recent reel, the self described "TV Weather Boi" documented his whirlwind week covering more than 6000 kilometres across Auckland, Waiheke Island, Brisbane, K'gari (Fraser Island), Caloundra and Sydney, all while tackling "the big topics". "Do you put the cream on first or the jam on first?" he asked a chef while filming a segment involving a tray of fresh scones. "It can divide a nation."
