Did someone make a new thread already? I’ll get this deleted if so but I couldn’t see one!

Why do I always think voting actually matters? I remember feeling like this last year too! Voting is meaningless.

FreeRider · 26/07/2023 22:09

Abi didn't get upset because you could tell she was relieved to be getting away from them all!

As would any sane person...

riotlady · 26/07/2023 22:10

Is Mitch just going for a villain storyline?

bookwormcrazy · 26/07/2023 22:10

Mitch!! I do not understand this man!

FreeRider · 26/07/2023 22:11

Mitch has probably always realised (and had it confirmed in the Grafties) that Ella B was sent in to 'bombshell' Ty and Ella...and when that didn't work she had no option really but to pick him .

FiloPasty · 26/07/2023 22:11

Who were the bottom 3? And did the islanders vote?

Inkpotlover · 26/07/2023 22:13

I think he's binning Ella off now because as Abi was saying goodbye to him she said 'hope to see you soon' or something to that effect. I've been convinced all the animosity between them is down to them still liking each other, so if Mitch gets him and Ella voted out now he and Abi could reunite before the final.

CherryCokeFanatic · 26/07/2023 22:06

Mitch narc rationalising why it’s possible to bottom 3. As a narc it is not possible he is as fault so the only explanation can be it’s Ella and there’s probably 1 or 2 small things that have happened or been said, and in his mind he’s pieced them together to come to that conclusion. This is how they think.

Absolutely this.

His tiny little mind is trying to work out how they can be bottom 3 and it can’t possibly be his fault, so must be something Ella is doing for the public to dislike them.

I would honestly fear for Abi's mental health if she got together with Mitch. Love yourself, Abi!

Are narcs really like that?! Fortunately I don't have much personal experience of them!

Yep. Nothing is their fault, ever.

Poor Jess, that Sammy never looks at her and always looks bored. I don’t trust him one swivelly eyeball.

TellingBone · 26/07/2023 22:44

I reckon Mitch is setting up a situation where he can blame his inevitable exit on not being in a couple rather than because he's a knobhead.

FreeRider · 26/07/2023 22:46

@GoldenGumballs I noticed that tonight, when they were talking, he was constantly scanning around, looking anywhere but actually at Jess. I'll give it less than a month out of the villa before it's reported they've split.

Parvolax · 26/07/2023 22:49

Yet again Mitch stays. Total nonsense. Lots of respect for Molly for cussing him out straight away. Gutted Scott left, he was constantly bullied in there.

What did Molly say?

Youcancallitpettybutsee · 26/07/2023 23:28

Well the announcement of the dates is the final nail for me, I'm out. That was an unfair dumping and I can't stand anyone who is left. There's not one genuine couple or even person left. They are all so toxic. I can't watch another second and I've never got this far and bailed.
I've loved reading these threads, thanks everyone

Sodie · 26/07/2023 23:40

I was late watching but good grief, is Mitch actually aware of what he is saying. He is vile,

AussieKoala · 26/07/2023 23:43

Sammy is coming across much better now but I still don't trust him. I think he's got his eyes firmly locked on the prize and is probably fond of Jess now but not enough to stay committed on the outside.

Bless, Zach looks tired. Ready to go home but the producers won't let him 😂

Ella B seems quite nice and normal now. She said in the beginning that she was a girl's girl and she's showing that side a bit more now. She's got enough common sense to bin Mitch before they get on the plane.

Aww Scott, in the end he chose honesty over staying in which is commendable. Didn't realise him and Whit were so close.

I can never bring myself watch the final dates. So cringe and contrived.

Oatycookies · 26/07/2023 23:53

Just as I said before Mitch is unhinged lol this whole fiasco has all been about beating the competition ie. Abi and Scott. He’s now relieved and happy they have broke up and the fact they’ve left the villa so he “won” and now can drop the act with Abi. He just hates the idea of Abi moving on - That’s why he got really irate when Abi was holding Scott’s hand and kept trying to say she was still into him.

I really hope she doesn’t open the door to him when he inevitably knocks after sacking off Ella B.

He’s either trying to save face since he knows the public doesn’t like his couple so he’s acting as if he is in control by self sabotaging and telling people Ella is fake or he genuinely resents Ella B and sees her as the reason they keep being in the bottom 3.

the producers should have sent the couple with the least votes home and I’m fairly sure that was Mitch and Ella B. They did it this way for Scott & Abi would need to go. I don’t throw this word around but he’s seems to have some narc traits including that unpredictable aggression . As someone pointed out on the last thread the way he switched on molly that time telling her not to talk to him again was super bizarre.

Oatycookies · 26/07/2023 23:54

Now can drop the act with *Ella B I meant

Tonight

im wondering if it’s Jess and Sammy

This was so wrong that it's practically a hate crime. I'm fumin

adriftabroad · 26/07/2023 22:08

My STBXH who REFUSES to accept a divorce but has locked me and DD out the house and been arrested and convicted of domestic violence reminds me of Mitch.

Ugh that’s awful!

well yeah I could see Mitch being extremely cruel and vindictive in any kind of separation /divorce situation.

Even Ty and zach as rude as they can be sometimes know how to apologise straight away whereas Mitch sits and festers and convinces himself he’s right. Good luck to his future wife.

The quote was the snippet of the newspaper article that claimed the male of the couple was furious and the female in tears. Those two were relieved to go home. Can't believe I was looking forward to this episode of all day 😅

Twonewcats · 27/07/2023 00:42

Did nobody else notice how Jess and Sammy were talking, and Jess said something like it was nice to have the public support, and Sammy replied that we must have seen that they've been on a journey?
Not "they must see how much we mean to each other", just that they've been on a journey. The gameplan all along, methinks
