After a week of screenshots, escapes and really terrible nachos, we’ve finally reached the sixth Dinner Party.

Feedback Week has got Stella and Filip back on track, but completely derailed others. Chris and Sam are very frosty, and Gia and Scott went completely AWOL.

They’ve returned just in time for the Dinner Party, because why waste a good frock?

Bec and Danny have reached a unique milestone, with her now officially being both a wife and a girlfriend.

But that’s not the achievement Danny is most interested in.

He’s hoping that this Dinner Party marks the official end of Bec’s long, very repetitive apology tour, as she comes face-to-face with Alissa after the screenshot reveal.

Cocktail Hour

It’s happy couple after happy couple after happy couple as the entrances begin.

Then we cut to Chris and Sam’s car ride, and oh my god.

IT IS EXCRUCIATING.
Paaaaain. (Nine)
Just in case it’s unclear how distant they are, we are present for what feels like their entire silent journey from apartment to warehouse.

Finally, Sam tells Chris he’s unhappy with how he handled his concerns last week, and he’s going to bring it up at the table to get everyone else’s perspective.

“I just got called a gaslighter and told my apologies are not genuine,” Chris fumes.

As they each fill others in on the week, Gia declares she’s never ever liked Sam, which I truly did not know was possible!

She’s staunchly Team Chris while Bec is on Team Sam.

That’s just what their beef needs! More layers!

Dinner Party

There is a lot of tension in the air, so everyone takes quick, quiet bites of their food while they can.

Danny breaks it up with a simple question: “How have you been, Alissa?”
Not great, man! How about you? (Nine)
Forks are down and ears are up as everyone listens in to the response.

“Reading those messages brought up a lot of hurt because this happened weeks ago,” Alissa explains.

Bec jumps in to address maybe the least important part of her explanation.

“Two months ago,” she says, despite Alissa being adamant dates on the screenshots prove it was five weeks ago.

Two months, five weeks, who bloody cares! The point is that they were terrible.

“Everyone at this table at some point has been affected by your behaviour,” Alissa says, as Bec interrupts again.

She knows what she said was gross, but claims she wasn’t the only one talking shit about Alissa.

In fact, she could send on more screenshots of other people saying just as terrible things! But she won’t because that would only hurt Alissa’s feelings more!

Holy deflection.

“I know you said sorry, but this shit is f—ed,” Alissa reacts.

That’s as explosive as she gets as she calls time on the conversation and their friendship for good.

Watching on, the experts are deeply impressed by the maturity.

They’re also very happy with their own handiwork as Stella and Filip appear better than ever.

Meanwhile …
Tough watch. (Nine)
OK, it’s time to address this. Just like Sam promised!

Chris begins, explaining that they had an issue which has led to Sam calling him a gaslighter, and now he feels he’s been “thrown under the bus”.

Sam’s turn.

From last week’s couch session to confronting Chris about it, he details all the failed communication and apologies he hasn’t found genuine.

It’s not the first time he’s felt shut down, but it’s the first time he’s stood up for himself, with dire consequences.

“Me speaking up about it has just caused you to hate me,” he says.
HATE?! (Nine)
Bec and Danny defend Sam’s decision to talk in front of the group, because let’s be real, this is MAFS. Privacy is not the name of the game!

The group is shook by how far they’ve fallen. Is nothing sacred?!

Chris and Sam’s problems play out in front of the group

On to something more positive: Captain Steve-o.

He’s taken the lead this week, and he’s not hanging up his hat just because Feedback Week is over.

“I feel me and Rachel’s sex life has been in the spotlight way too bloody long,” he says.

He puts a firm line in the sand and asks for no further pressure to be put on them.

Aye, aye captain!

Steven creates a firm boundary with the group

Since we can’t chat sex, we may as well chat drama.

Danny confronts Gia over not showing up to their partner-swap meeting, saying that he would’ve liked to have got her perspective.

Considering Gia’s long-standing feud with both him and his wife, she is more than a little sceptical.

“He’s full of shit,” she reacts.

The sound of Gia’s voice is triggering for Bec, who takes us back to screenshot-gate by asking if the point of it was to “try take her down”.
Here we go again. (Nine)
“Stop using me! Stop using me as a pawn,” Alissa yells.

Bec acknowledges that Alissa is collateral damage in a fight that really has nothing to do with her, and is taken aback when Danny tells her that needs to stop.

He’s “ashamed” of her behaviour, and to her, that’s not very “ride or die” of him. God, I wonder how much he regrets bringing that term to the season.
No riding or dying! (Nine)
Bec storms away from the table, saying that she’s “done”.

“Get me out of here,” she yells at production.
These bathrooms are main characters this year. (Nine)
Danny gets up … but not to follow her.

Instead, he voices all his concerns to Rachel while his wife rages in the bathroom.

“Do not sit there in front of everyone and not show solidarity to me … pretend, just pretend for the sake of me!”

Danny airs his true feelings over Bec’s behaviour

In the next episode, Bec has pulled herself out of the bathroom to sit next to Danny on the Commitment Ceremony couch … where it seems he’s about to deliver another unsatisfactory answer about falling in love with her.

Plus, why is everyone gasping at Chris and Sam?! Tune in on Sunday to find out.
