After the girls watched on as three new bombshells went on dates with the OG villa hunks, things erupted between the Islanders.
Meg was unimpressed when she saw her man Dejon go on a date with Malisha, with the two coming face-to-face when they arrived back in the villa.
The air was then cleared during the day before things went south again in the evening.
As Dejon chatted to Malisha in the evening, Meg stood up to see what the pair were talking about.
Meg sneaked into the villa and started listening to Tommy's conversation through the door.
Dejon and Malisha were flirting, with the bombshell revealing he was her favourite.
Meg then walked onto the terrace and said "Hello, am I missing something special?".
Malisha then departed the terrace and Meg sat down with the hunk, who said his head was "scrambled".
He explained how he didn't like how Meg had said he "disrespected, violated and embarrassed" her.
Meg then said that everyone saw a "different side" to him.

After Meg and Dejon made up, they were cuddled up on the sunbeds together and were seemingly smitten once again.
Malisha then walked over and asked Meg if she wanted to go for a chat.
Meg then said she wanted to "clear some stuff up" with Malisha.
She then told her that it was "disrespectful" that Malisha said she wanted to take Dejon to the hideaway before taking him to the terrace.

"Don't try and say sorry and then take my man to the hideaway," Meg fumed at Malisha.
Malisha then fumed "shut up" and "grow up" as she stormed off.
Sunday night's episode then ended with most of the girls looking annoyed with Malisha.
But fans seemed to be more on Malisha's side when they took to X to slam Meg's behaviour.
"Meg is trying extremely hard to be iconic, you look dumb," said one.
A second then said: "Meg is trying to act like she's that bitch but she really really is not."
While a third penned: "Meg needs to seek help, she's giving mean girl energy."
And a fourth said: "Meg is giving mean girl vibes big time."

Rise of the £120 birthday party — for pets
Every dog has its day but so do cats, rabbits, parrots, hamsters and guinea pigs, according to new research that reveals Britons are spending big on their pets' birthdays. Almost two thirds of Britain's 22 million pet owners celebrate their animal's birthday or adoption day, the study found, spending an average of £121 to reach a combined £1.7 billion. The research found that new toys and gourmet food were the most popular presents, chosen by two thirds of owners, followed by a new bed or blanket. Half bought a new collar, leash or other practical gift, and a similar proportion bought a personalised gift. Owners can, for example, have their cat's picture printed on a plush grey cushion for £25.95 or have their dog's face on a four-piece coaster set for £14.95. Those happy to pay a bit more can buy a custom portrait of their pet in military dress for £65.99 or a Dog DNA kit for £104.99. Other options in the burgeoning pet birthday market include a paw-print clay mould and photo frame kit for £25.95 or a 'light me when my dog farts' candle for £12.99. More tech-savvy owners might prefer the Wickedbone, the world's first smart and bluetooth-enabled remote-controlled dog toy, that is being sold by Cheerble for £100. But many owners do not stop at presents. Half have thrown their pets a party, including 83 per cent in Generation Z and 79 per cent of millennial owners. For over-55s the figure is 39 per cent. One younger pet owner who threw an elaborate first birthday party for her miniature dachshund is Tuscany Wilson. 'My dog is like my child and I knew since the day I got her I wanted to throw a birthday party for her,' she said. 'I took a lot of inspiration from Pinterest for birthday party themes.' In total, Wilson spent nearly £400, inviting her dog-owning friends to her house for the party. It included a dog cake and cupcakes, food from a local restaurant and decorations. She said: 'We had a play patch for the dog guests which included toys laid on the grass for them. The highlight was definitely spoiling my dog and getting to see her have a good birthday. I will definitely do it again.' Some celebrities spare no expense on pets' birthdays. The Formula 1 champion Sir Lewis Hamilton, for example, threw his bulldog Roscoe a party fit for a human, complete with party hats, dog guest list and a personalised dairy-free cake; Roscoe follows a vegan diet. Even after the death of Karl Lagerfeld, the fashion designer, in 2019, his cherished cat Choupette continues to enjoy extravagant celebrations: her 11th birthday was marked with a party on a private jet. Sofía Vergara, an actress best known for her role in the television show Modern Family, once celebrated her son's chihuahua Baguette's birthday by waking her up with a dramatic shower of dollar bills, launched from a money gun. The research found that one in eight people who threw a party for their pet did so specifically to create content for their social media. Gia Belle's party was posted on TikTok to Wilson's 1,000 followers. Tuscany Wilson and her dog Gia Belle at the extravagant birthday party Even if social media content is not the objective of a pet's party, more than half of dog owners and two thirds of cat owners still post pictures of the event online. When asked why they celebrate their pet's birthdays, almost half of people said it was because their animals are considered a part of the family. This might also explain why more than half of pet owners sign their pet's name on greeting cards when they send them. Perhaps surprisingly, the research found that guinea pig owners are more likely than both dog and cat owners to celebrate their pet's milestones.

Arise, Sir David Beckham
'England trail by two goals to one. Beckham could raise the roof here with a goal,' goes the commentary, as David Beckham lines up a free-kick against Greece, shortly before whipping it into the top corner. 'I don't believe it! David Beckham scores the goal to take England all the way to the World Cup finals! Give that man a knighthood!' The year was 2001, and the ultimate honour seemed close for England's biggest football player – and perhaps the most famous living Briton, full stop. Yet as the longtime Beckham watcher Zoe Williams describes, it has been a long wait. As she tells Helen Pidd, Beckham was a pioneer for many reasons in the 1990s and early 2000s: a gay icon in a masculine world; an openly loving dad; and, of course, an extremely successful athlete. But his career has been beset by scandal, too – from reports of affairs, and allegations over his tax arrangements, to disappointments over his association with Qatar. Still, on Friday it was finally announced that Beckham was to receive his knighthood – the fruits of a campaign for the honour that started more than a decade ago. So why now? And what does it say about the UK's honours system – and its class system – that it took so long?

Good Boy – K-drama Episode 6 Recap & Review
Counterpunch Episode 6 of Good Boy begins with Dong-ju infatuated and barely listening to the doctor as he shrugs off the man's concerns. Instead, he blames it on vertigo. He looks with puppy-dog eyes at Han-na and brushes off his symptoms completely , jumping right back into the case again. Min Ju-yeong seems to know exactly what they've been up to, and his history is suspiciously clean. Dong-ju believes he may be using a burner phone, dispatched somewhere around the parking lot. Well, Dong-ju does actually find the phone with a bit of digging, and he finds it ripped into two pieces. Unfortunately, Dong-ju also finds himself trapped inside the drain after retrieving one of the pieces. He teases Jong-hyeon after his kiss with Han-na and this continues their rivalry throughout the episode, as the pair continue to try and one-up the other. The phone is eventually brought back to the lab, where the team confirm fingerprints from Ju-yeong, and trace it back to our slippery customer. Despite being kicked out his mum's noodle shop, Dong-ju continues to look out for Mi-ja, making sure the kids who have been graffitiing the place are reprimanded and kept in check. He isn't too harsh with them though, offering food and being kind, but it doesn't go unnoticed by his mum. In fact, she decides to invite him over the following evening to patch up their issues. Elsewhere, Drug Demon continues to hold up at the safehouse but she's bored and wanting Dong-ju to head back. However, she's intending to head out and find whoever is cooking up fake Candy. This guy is actually at Baukgu Port, so Drug Demon decides to use this intel to fool the police into doing her dirty work. It works a treat, especially as Dong-ju and Han-na (who's fresh off falling out with Gyeong-suk about reopening the case intro her father's death) show up. As all the police race off to find this copycat, going by the name of Bbong-pil, Drug Demon spins her web of deceit. Everybody thinks this is the right play, except for Han-na who isn't sure that Drug Demon can be trusted. After a bit of product placement for Kopiko (to be fair, these candies are super tasty), the group prepare to head out after staking the place the entire night. Bbong-pil shows up at the dock but soon susses that he's being tailed, leading to a big chase. However, it's Dong-ju who comes up short this time, thanks to not being able to swim and ending up in the drink. Regardless, the group check out the lab and realize the stories they know about Drug Demon don't really line up with what they know about this infamous character. Bbong-pil has never heard of Ju-yeong and doesn't seem to know what's going on, even with Dong-ju's unconventional questioning. Dong-ju does get the hair samples and roughs the guy up but it seems Dong-ju also knows that he may not be their guy. The irony is, they've actually done Drug Demon's work for her, taking out another player and letting her continue her operation. At the station, things take an unexpected turn when Jeong-a shows up. She clings to Jong-hyeon like her life depends on it, and it seems she's back from the Philippines now. Dong-ju and the team are tasked with making sure she doesn't run away, and she's inevitably thrown into the same safe house as Drug Demon, whom they still haven't figured out is their guy. While Man-sik delivers a statement to the police about their big win, Jong-hyeon and Han-na have been digging into the records. Now, according to Cheognil Shipping's revenue data, they were among the top domestic shippers in the industry but the following year they deliberately filed for bankruptcy. At that point, TAE corporation bought them out. Furthermore, the company handling the logistics happens to be J9 Security, run by Oh Jong-gu. The same Jong-gu, who's working for Ju-yeong. TAE corporation smuggled in chemicals, disguised as regular Russian frozen pollock, which Jong-gu handed over to the Drug Demon. Ju-yeong was overseeing this entire gig and knew the ins and outs… but its not as simple as jumping in and busting them all. TAE corporation is lead by CEO Steve Roh, whose father holds a lot of power. He happens to be the Mayor of Insung City, Deok-gyu. This is the same guy who's chummy with Commissioner Cho too, so trying to take down this house of cards is not going to be easy. With everything out in the open, Ju-yeong is forced to apologize to the Mayor for messing everything up. Instead, Ju-yeong decides to beat down the Mayor and leave him a bloody mess. He's the one who managed to get the Mayor's name on this, so he beats the guy down and demands he get the traffic case off his back too. This show of power keeps Jung-gu quiet but when questioned, as this maniacal Ju-yeong asks whether he's actually a bad guy, he's not sure how to answer Ju-yeong's question. He chuckles and tells him he's not, but it's clear Ju-yeong is a bit deranged. He's actually annoyed that Dong-ju and the others think he's crooked and he decides to bring some guys onboard that can keep quiet and show how bad he can really be. Man-sik is attacked outside the bathroom by Ju-yeong's goons following their team dinner that night. Unfortunately, they take his gun and bring it straight to Ju-yeong. He fires wildly while being sure to keep his fingerprints off, clearly designed to get Man-sik in trouble. Meanwhile, Han-na learns the truth about Drug Demon and who she really is. Unfortunately, Jeong-a also finds out about her real name and it causes them to leave the safe house together, putting the Captain on edge even more when the place is left a fiery mess. As for Jeon-ha, she brings the Captain's daughter to Ju-yeong, whom she's aligned with. The gun here has one more bullet left and unfortunately, a nasty grin crosses his face as he gets an idea. While the team scramble for answers, Dong-ju receives a present… which happens to be Man-sik's gun with the bullets gone. It turns out Ju-yeong hasn't targeted Jeong-a, he's gone after Gyeong-il. When Dong-ju shows up at the restaurant, he finds her in a bad state. Covered in blood, shot and on oxygen, Dong-ju is grief-stricken. Even worse, the table is all set for their dinner together too, with bits of cucumber on the side. The same cucumber that Ju-yeong would remove methodically from his plate. With his mum dead, Dong-ju shows up at the dock and immediately smacks Ju-yeong clean out, knocking him to the ground. However, we also get scenes here that seem to hint that Dong-ju's brain injury is very serious… will we find out the extent of it next week? The Episode Review Counterpunch is a great name for this episode, given Ju-yeong counters with a horrific blow to Dong-ju and takes out his mum. This whole case has been made that much more serious, and it could well cause even more trauma for Dong-ju too, given his internal injuries. I'd imagine this guy either has CTE or some form of brain injury as a result of his time boxing. The tone in this drama really switches hard from comedy to melodrama, and that ending has seemingly hinted that we're taking a turn down a dark path for the episodes ahead. We do learn this episode about the Mayor being involved as the higher-up, which seemed like an obvious little trope to throw in at this point. However, the twist to this cliched Korean trope is that Ju-yeong seems to be the one in control here rather than subservient to anyone else. The guy effortlessly plays a villain you can't wait to see taken down, while simultaneously, Park Go-bum is acting his heart out as Dong-ju. Given the guy has been typecast as a stoic, quiet nice-guy in many shows, it's great to see him flexing his acting chops and showing what he's capable of. Either way, everything here is left wide open for where it may go next week. Previous Episode Next Episode Expect A Full Season Write-Up When This Season Concludes!
