This episode opens on Day 10. It's morning at Mata Chica, the women's resort, but today, instead of the usual blazing, golden sun, and crystal, blue skies, heavy clouds hang over the islandâ€¦a sign perhaps, of the gloomy feelings dogging the days' events. At Captain Morgan's Retreat, the men have already chosen the single girls they want to accompany them on their final, exotic dream dates. Now, it's the women's turn. Mandy, Valerie, and Shannon are forced into narrowing their field of singles down to just one; ""the one"" who will accompany them on their final, intense dream date.

Mark gathers the three women on the beach, and calls for the single men to line up at the water's edge. But, before Mark has the girls reveal their choices, he turns to Valerie and Shannon and says, ""Mandy wanted to ask your permission for something that she wanted to do. The rules were, that you could only go on the final date with someone you've already dated. Mandy wants to know if you will allow her to incl

Paradise Beckons

Episode 2 begins at the coupled guys' resort, Captain Morgan's Retreat (CMR). Host Mark meets Kaya, Andy, Taheed and Billy for breakfast and asks what happened after they said goodbye to their girlfriends. Flashbacks reveal escapades from the night before as the single ladies pursue the guys, especially Billy. Mark wonders if the men are experiencing butterflies. The guys reveal that they have good reason to be nervous - they've heard that there are a few ""crocodiles"" among the single women who will stop at nothing to get their man.

Later that morning, Mandy, Ytossie, Shannon and Valerie meet Mark at Mata Chica. Much like their partners, the women are experiencing some first date butterflies. Shannon, in particular, is so nervous that she can't eat breakfast. Mark tells the women that their blind dates (four single guys) will be coming to pick them up at their cabanas shortly.

The coupled men and women are swept away by their blind dates, and each date begins a day filled with exciteme

The Blind Date

The third episode begins in the aftermath of the first bonfire. When the coupled women return to Mata Chica from their intense fireside experience, the single guys lift their spirits with a boisterous Jacuzzi party and a romp in the ocean.

The morning of Day 5 begins with the coupled women walking down the pier to retrieve the emotional video messages that their partners did (or did not) leave them. On the other side of the island, the coupled men do the same. Shannon listens as Andy tells her he had a great first date. She is a little put off because she doesn't want to have a ""mental picture"" of Andy with another woman. In her video message, Shannon advises her boyfriend not to ""focus on one"" of the single girls. Andy understands and says he's more than happy to ""spread myself thin."" Valerie is confused by Kaya's proclamation that he is having a ""really"" good time. His hope that she's not ""limiting herself"" sticks in her mind, and she wonders, ""What does that mean?"" Kaya is moved to

Power Dating

After the latest bonfires on Night 6, Billy is upset with Mandy. Frustrated, he disappears into Vanessa's cabana. Later, Billy and Vanessa enter the lounge bar at Captain Morgan's Retreat, where Billy sets the place on fire with his pseudo striptease for Vanessa and the single girls.

Morning begins on Day 7 as the coupled men and women retrieve emotionally charged video messages that their partners have left them. These messages prove meaningful considering the unnerving video clips they witnessed at the bonfire the night before. Mandy runs down the dock anxiously anticipating Billy's latest words. She can see that Billy is visibly devastated by her escapades with Johnny and the sexy body shots they shared. Mandy trembles with tears when she sees how she has hurt Billy. In her message to Billy, Mandy guesses that Billy will have seen a clip of her date with Johnny and reassures him that Johnny ""is a cool guy that you just cut loose with."" She ends by telling Billy that her confidence h

This episode opens on Day 8, late at night, thirty minutes after the last bonfire. The women return to the water taxi in turmoil. Mandy is completely upset by the video clips, which have shown the coupled guys bashing her for the body shot incident, and Billy performing a pseudo striptease for the single girls. Her anxiety gets Valerie's wheels spinning about what footage of her Kaya might have seen -if Kaya has seen her Jacuzzi jump, he might retaliate. Shannon cautioned ""what you learn out of context is only going to destroy you."" Mandy fears she is about to throw away a year and a half of an amazing relationship with Billy.

Returning to Captain Morgan's Retreat, Billy, Kaya, and Andy are indeed concerned about the after-hours activities at their partners' resort. Kaya is still wondering about the hot tub sequences and Andy speculates that it probably ""wasn't just Mr. Massage Rub a Dub Dub therapy guy doing that towel thing."" Billy and Kaya agree that all the single guys did that. Wh

The final episode opens on the morning after the final dates. We see Kaya and Alison deep in a remote part of Ian Anderson's caves, snuggled up asleep underneath their sheer tent looking like the content couple. Alison states that her favorite part of the dream date was ""being alone with Kaya in the cave by ourselves. We were alone for twelve hours. That was the best."" Kaya and Alison come into the light of the day hiking their way back to civilization. Alison continues her glowing review, ""We had a great date, and he can still look sexy with mud all over his white pants."" Kaya concurs with ""My date with Alison was really really wild."" Alison and Kaya stop for a moment underneath a tree where Alison buries head into Kaya's chest and says to Kaya ""But it's not really like a normal second date."" Kaya agrees. Alison confesses that she ""doesn't feel bad about anything,"" though she wishes she had slept more.

Contrary to the after glow that Kaya and Alison are feeling, we encounter Valerie a
