If Sam doesn’t show up and he’s left the experiment, I’m done,” she declares. “This dinner party is super boring. Where’s Sam?” And just like that, Sam appears - and better still, he’s alone!
“Her skin is glowing underneath the beautiful lights and she’s got the beautiful white on. The attraction is obvious, we can feel it,” Sam says upon seeing Ines.
“There’s chemistry, there’s like a magnetic connection,” Ines reveals. OK we get it, you have the hots for each other! With all the longing looks, how can Bronson and the experts miss it?
Sam joins the table and uses his single status to work the room, finally making his way to sit next to Ines and the penny drops for the experts.
“I need dessert, I feel like a cupcake or something,” Sam says dropping their code word in the least subtle way possible!
Ines makes her way out and Sam quickly slinks off after her. “I feel so guilty,” Sam says in a statement surely no one believes, after all he’s been clear about his lack of feelings for Lizzie from the beginning.
Just their luck, there is a private room that they can escape to that no one else knows about!
The pair can’t keep their hands off each other as Ines announces, “Let’s get physical!” And Sam is completely on-board. “Ines is sucking me in like a vortex. It’s really tempting,” Sam confesses. “You make me melt inside,” Sam confesses after she kisses him on the forehead.
While Ines is ready to come clean to everyone, Sam doesn’t think they should out themselves yet so they come up with a plan to both vote to stay at the next commitment ceremony to make sure they have more time together. Like they don’t already have each other’s number and could get together IRL!
As the secret couple return to the dinner party separately, no one seems to be suss to them despite the time they must have been gone – or are they?
