Is that the SC we have of Lisa crying? And did they show Elora's face....I ask because they have been hiding whoever gets the SD.

Yes, well it's ok for other girls to take their clothes off for Matty to look at, just not HIS wifey

Lisa wasn't crying. It was ITM and she looked upset/angry

I can't remember if Elora was shown full-face but it was very obvious it was Elora for overnight date

AllAboutLove wrote:Calling Matty on his BS

He talks about the drama in the house and send Leah home because she stirs drama in the house

But then Matty chooses Elora for an overnight date?

Yeah, way not to stir drama in the house Matty. Looks like you're taking on the role of Leah

This episode is not being received well on FB. Matty should totally backtrack on his "I'm not a puppet" stance IMO. Unless it's written into his contract that he has to claim not to be doing things just because he's under contract. Which is probably is. Irony is not his friend in this situation.

The double-standard makes me sick

Ok I'm reeling a little bit from that episode.. did I eat too much cheese? Yes. Could it have affected my judgement? Possibly. SO everything that follows is my own cheese induced opinion.

While Matty questioned Simone and Leah about their previous jobs, ultimately he was angry that Leah had chosen to push Simone "when she was at breaking point". I do believe his discussion with Leah (before he said goodbye to her) he was actually pretty angry with her drama attitude. In comparison, it looked like he genuinely felt compassion for Simone. To me, the s*ut shaming coming from the girls was terrible. Elora outed Leah "for the sake of Matty", Leah threw Simone under the bus out of retaliation.. The comment from Elora about Matty "tipping" Leah is disrespectful to Leah and Matty.

I was happy to see that some of the girls refrained from getting involved (laura just nodded along, jen stayed out of it, sharlene wasn't to be seen, same with michelle). I was also impressed with Kate. She didn't divulge everything, but let Matty know to give Leah and chance to chat honestly to him.

All my opinion.

Yup completely.

Agree with you. Elora was a bit of a surprise, she is more duplicitous than I expected of her.

Can someone please go to the Foxtel guide on their computer and check out episode 11 and report back. Ta

Oh FFS who does he think he is?  He hasn't shown any serious interest in her - it's none of his business who's seen her topless.

Yeah, get over yourself Matty! This is like s*ut shaming, poor form BachAU!

Absolutely! And the s*ut shaming coming from the girls themselves as well... just nasty

Yep it was very disappointing that they were all sucked into playing judgemental in the bad girl SCRIPT.
All puppets unfortunately.

I did love the episode commentary from everyone here on the forum though.
It meant it was still enjoyable thanks.

My main thoughts on the episode are

We have the F3 - F4 Laura, Tara, Flo, Elise - (sorry Elise to fans but I don't think there is a love story waiting to emerge here).
Now the drama is over the love story will really begin....well lets bloody hope so.
Elora is the sexy spice...so maybe just a bit more drama.
Michelle likely the walkout..well guessed by who I am sorry I can't recall.
Matty is realising having children may not be just his decision.

I have to disagree. I'm not happy about the overnight date situation, but as for getting rid of Leah, I think it's his right to be as picky as he wants - that's the point of the show. If he doesn't want to date someone who is still working in that industry and who has clearly been a b!tch to other girls in the house, I'm not judging him for it. Doesn't mean he's not allowed to look at girls IMO.

I enjoy perving on Matty in no shirt and have liked some of his IG photos... but that doesn't mean I'd want to date a stripper or someone working in that line of work. Each to their own I say.

@Sundy Ive been checking all day. Ten has not released their program guide from the 27th (sat) onward! Are they on to our tricks?
