A Married At First Sight wife\u2019s vile text messages become the main topic at Wednesday night\u2019s drunken dinner party, with the disgraced contestant insisting the offensive screenshots don\u2019t count because they were sent two months ago \u2014 which is an important detail because apparently eight weeks is the statute of limitations on calling someone a \u201cc**t-licking Christian influencer wannabe c**t\u201d. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the gay couple stops speaking when one of the husbands freaks out because the other husband has secretly made a detailed plan for their future, complete with interstate relocations and a Pinterest board filled with pictures of velvet furniture from West Elm. <\/p>\n
Ooh, that reminds me: we need to launch a MAFS Pinterest board to organise all the screenshots of Bec\u2019s rude text messages. Applications are now open to be the page admin. Note: there will be a panel interview and an Honesty Box challenge as part of the selection process. <\/p>\n
JAMES WEIR: Read all the recaps here<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cTonight, our couples are coming together to reflect and unpack,\u201d the voiceover lady announces with a straight face.<\/p>\n This is a really diplomatic way of describing how the freaks are about to get smashed on free prosecco while screaming the C-word at each other over chicken skewers.<\/p>\n The A-plot for this episode: Bec\u2019s offensive text message screenshots<\/a> have continued to circulate around the group. And tonight, Alissa pledges to confront Bec about the whole mess.<\/p>\n The B-plot? Sam and Chris are no longer speaking, which is quite an achievement for a married couple forced to live together in a one-bedroom suite at Trash Tower.<\/p>\n The drama kicked off when Chris presented the experts with a detailed plan of where they\u2019d live after the experiment without consulting Sam first. When Sam brought this up, Chris got defensive \u2014 and he has been icing Sam out ever since. <\/p>\n Gia, fresh from her own Trash Tower evacuation<\/a>, has now decided to return to the experiment and adopt Chris into her mean girl clique.<\/p>\n \u201cIn the car, Sam called me a gaslighter,\u201d Chris fumes to her.<\/p>\n Gia prepares to scorch the earth. <\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s super calculated. I never liked Sam,\u201d she concludes. <\/p>\n Gia and Chris immediately get to work plotting Sam\u2019s downfall. Maybe Gia should hack into his old Grindr account and share embarrassing screenshots? <\/p>\n Over dinner, Alissa wastes no time before bringing up the screenshots.<\/p>\n \u201cReading those messages brought up a lot of hurt,\u201d she begins. <\/p>\n Bec interrupts. \u201cTwo months ago. It was two months ago.\u201d<\/p>\n Yes, Bec. TWO MONTHS AGO. We heard you. The time frame has been noted and logged. <\/p>\n \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d Alissa continues. \u201cBecause \u2026 they were the most vicious, vulgar \u2026 I would never say that to someone in real life, let alone in a message.\u201d<\/p>\n She starts paraphrasing the insults: \u201cI was called a rat \u2026 my head is so far up my f**king arse and how much of a c**t I am \u2026 And \u2026 we\u2019re Christian-licking c**ts.\u201d<\/p>\n Clarification: The actual insult<\/a> was \u201cc**t-licking Christian influencer wannabe c**ts.\u201d <\/p>\n \u2026 But continue.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was vile and vicious, baaabe,\u201d Alissa says.<\/p>\n Bec tries to interrupt with deflection. \u201cHang on. Babe, I\u2019m tryna speak. I\u2019m tryna speak. The reality of the situation is you\u2019ve [only] seen snippets. Snippets.\u201d<\/p>\n Ah yes. The classic \u201cout of context\u201d defence. Because there\u2019s definitely a context in which calling someone those insults is totally reasonable.<\/p>\n She tries to blame the other girls in the group chat, insinuating they wrote messages that are equally offensive \u2014 but then stops short of revealing any of them, declaring she has too much integrity and respect to do that.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not going to send you the messages that everyone else sent about you \u2026 that would make me just as bad,\u201d Bec says.<\/p>\n So to be clear: Bec has integrity NOW. Just not two months ago when she was authoring her masterpiece about Alissa being a rat. Got it.<\/p>\n Next to Bec, her husband Danny is visibly wilting. <\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m sick of the drama \u2026 and every dinner party there\u2019s drama,\u201d he tells her.<\/p>\n But it\u2019s not just the drama. Tonight, Danny has heard for the first time the actual words his wife wrote about Alissa in the messages.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m a bit ashamed of Bec, to be honest. I\u2019m not gonna lie,\u201d he says. \u201cI don\u2019t care how long ago it was or what the circumstances are.\u201d<\/p>\n Bec, naturally, makes Danny the villain and herself the victim.<\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019re throwing me under the bus,\u201d she whines about being held accountable for her own words. <\/p>\n Her eyes squint and she issues a firm warning: \u201cI want you to be wary about what you say.\u201d<\/p>\n Danny doesn\u2019t miss a beat. \u201cI want you to be wary about what you txt people.\u201d<\/p>\n The crowd goes wild!<\/p>\n \u201cTwo months ago, Daniel! It was TWO MONTHS ago!\u201d Bec shrieks.<\/p>\n Mark it on the calendar, folks. <\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t care if it was 10 years ago!\u201d Danny fires back.<\/p>\n And with that, Bec deploys her signature move. The one she has perfected over 28 episodes of this experiment.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m done! I\u2019m done!\u201d<\/p>\n She storms through the hallways of the warehouse where the dinner party is filmed, yelling demands at producers.<\/p>\n \u201cI WANT OUT,\u201d she spits. \u201cTake me downstairs! I want out! GET ME OUTTA HERE. F**king fuming!\u201d<\/p>\n Bec, wait! Before you go, remind us: how many months ago were the text messages sent?<\/p>\n Facebook: @hellojamesweir<\/a><\/p>\n
