Yamen and Weston cuddle up to Christen and Katrina, respectively, while Alana and Mallory spend an unromantic night in the Hideaway suite together. Then, after a comical competition empowers all the girls, each boy takes ultimate control at a recoupling ceremony that sends two Islanders packing.

At the same time, Zac and Elizabeth can't stop gushing over each other, which is fitting when the Islanders compete in a stomach-churning food-themed challenge. Finally, Arielle appears in the Villa for an unexpected dumping.
