Instead of following Jacques directly to the pool as soon as he declares it is “pool time,” Paige finishes eating and responds cheerfully to Jay in the kitchen, which Jacques takes as a stunning betrayal. Here is when Jacques proves himself an unambiguous asshole. In exchange for his incredible bravery in opening up just enough to admit to Paige that he really likes her, Jacques seems to expect - what, exactly? He’s already positioning himself within view whenever Jay and Paige happen to speak and clobbering her with hugs whenever Jay walks past. Paige tells him he has nothing to worry about. He just “can’t show emotion,” he tells her. He’s never felt like this in his life, he says. Jacques pulls Paige out of bed in the middle of the night to tell her that, for some reason, seeing her in bed with Jay has suddenly made him angry. Or, not even really getting to know Jay, more just playing along to be polite because that is how women behave when men they’re not that interested in start hitting on them. If you want to see how relationships are not supposed to work, might I direct everyone’s attention to Jacques and Luca, Love Island’s gruesome twosome of masculine fragility? After telling Paige to go ahead and get to know Jay (causing her quite a bit of anxiety, by the way), Jacques is suddenly upset that Paige is getting to know Jay. This is how relationships are supposed to work! He grins gleefully, they make out, and all is right in the world until the public votes them among the least compatible. Eventually, after giving Charlie the once and for-all break-up speech as he twirls that empty champagne flute, Tasha tells Andrew she’s ready to “tunnel vision” on him. In the outside world, this is the point where she’d find an excuse to ruin it out of fear.
Tasha tells Andrew in bed one night that maybe part of her problem is that she feels like things might be too good to be true. Essentially what he’s doing is giving her enough space and respect to make up her mind. What’s going on is this is Love Island, so Andrew has been telling Tasha she can get to know anyone she likes and is trying not to pressure her or demand exclusivity too early. They apologize when she brings it up to them and she feels like no one in the Villa really has her back, but I’m not sure they understand what’s going on.
She wakes up the day after the last recoupling feeling bummed - not because Charlie picked Ekin-Su or because she doesn’t like Andrew - but because Luca and Dami have been pulling faces and hinting to Andrew that he should start looking elsewhere. As for our other Islanders, I hereby take back every nice thing I’ve ever said about Jacques (I knew he was trouble) Luca could not find his own lane with a GPS, mission control, and a self-driving Tesla Tasha and Andrew really are fine, honestly, lay off Damniyah deserves the world and Danica, Danica, Danica.Įveryone from the editors to Luca, to Jay, to the British voting public seems to believe that Tasha isn’t very into Andrew and they are not a strong couple, and it’s making Tasha upset. Last week Davide was screaming in her face this week, she’s making him pancakes. I promised myself I wouldn’t start this recap with Ekin-Su again, but my God, if that woman is not putting in the work to make this an entertaining season. This recap does not cover Episode 30 - Unseen Bits.
