Temptation Island

The temptation has returned and like last year we take the proper time to learn about our couples. First is Melissa, 29, and Michael 25. Melissa is a former Ms. New York and wants to settle down while Michael isn't quite ready yet. They both live with their parents in Long Island, NY. Next is Eric, 25, and Kristin, 21, who are from Farmville, Virginia and have been together for three years. They're the all-American couple and are coming on to test the emotional boundaries of their relationship. Next is Anthony, 23, and Stephanie, 21, who are from Chicago and have been together for three years. They've been living together for around 6-7 months. Anthony thinks Stephanie likes to fight so they can have ""make-up"" sex. Next is Jason, 23, and Kara, 24, from Las Vegas. They've been together for a year and Jason still lives with his parents and has never really been anywhere or done anything. The couples arrive on Roatan in the Bay Islands off the coast of Honduras. They wait on the beach pat

When we left off we found out that the selected singles did not get kicked off, but in fact will be the first date choices. The Couple Men find out that the Single Girls are their first dates as well. Upon finding out, Jason looked very upset and went to his room alone. Over at Palmetto, Jeff immediately apologizes to Kara and the Single Guys all celebrate the news that no one was kicked off. The next day the Couples embark on their first dates. On the dates, Jason and Amy have the worst date imaginable. The hiking was too much. The weather was too hot. The food was terrible. There wasn't enough water. Anything that could be wrong was. On the flip side, Kara and Jeff's date went very well. They went on a boat ride and Jeff gave Kara a massage. Jeff thinks that Kara will end the show as a single. Anthony goes on his first date with Tiffany. They go white water rafting and both seemed to have a great time. Stephanie went on a date with Derrick and they went jet skiing. They also had a lo

After the last bonfire, the Couples began opening up more to the Singles on both sides of the island. The guys reminisced about what they saw. Anthony in particular was upset about Stephanie being close to Derrick. Jason remarked about seeing Kara with Jeff. He said he was frustrated but he felt like it was a chance for a new start. The Couple Guys were allowed to choose their dates this time and Michael chose Sandra. They went out on a boat and had great conversations and really seemed to hit it off. There was a lot of flirtation and sexual innuendo. Anthony chose Ida on his date. They went canopying through the jungle and had an incredible time flying through the trees. Anthony and Ida then went on a picnic and seemed to have a really nice time. Anthony said it was one of the best dates he had ever been on. Eric chose Amy for his date. They went out on a boat as well, but we don't see much as they both exclaim their mutual attraction for one another. Jason took Erryn on his date. Jas

We began this week with more date selection. We saw the girls go first and it seemed that there was some tension between them by who they selected on their dates. To everyone's surprise, Stephanie picked Jeff for her date. They went on a canoe ride and also had a nice meal together. They seemed to really hit it off and both commented on how easy it was to talk to each other. Jeff seemed to forget Kara's name altogether. Kristin and Derrick went horseback riding together and ended up having a picnic. Kristin said she had great conversations although it seemed she did all of the talking. Derrick said he wasn't looking forward to dating her again. Melissa picked Sterling to go on a date with. She ended up telling Sterling that she had feelings for Jerome. Sterling told Melissa to just go with her instincts even though most people are telling her not to go with Jerome. Kara picked Giulio for her date. The date was more of a ""friends"" date, because neither Giulio nor Kara had any physical o

After the last bonfire, the girls went back to their resort and discussed the clips. Melissa was especially troubled about Michael's video. After discussing, the girls needed a release and joined the boys at the pool. The single guys were waiting and ready to cheer the girls up. Kristin thought Melissa might be retaliating for what she saw at bonfire by getting closer with Jerome. They spent the whole night together. Meanwhile, Jeff and Stephanie went off together to look at the stars and they had an immediate bond as well. Their romance appeared to be maturing.After the guys bonfire, Michael told Jason that one of the single girls was telling the camera things about Jason that wasn't true regarding his girlfriend. As a result, at dinner, Jason stood up and yelled at Sandra for saying things about Jason.Everyone at the table was in shock when he called her out and they all went silent for the remainder of dinner.The next day at Palmetto Jeff talked to Kristin about his feelings with Ka

The next day, Melissa said that Kristin was there for the wrong reasons and meddling too much into her experience. Kristin said that by Jerome staying there was affecting her experience.Mark then called the girls back together and told them to pick their next dates. He then told them that before they chose their dates, they had to vote off one guy. Evidently Derrick had told the girls he wanted to go home so the girls let him go. Derrick told us that he wanted to go home because he was getting too close to Stephanie and how he didn't want to get in between her and Jeff. For their dates, Stephanie chose Michael to go on her date, surprising Jeff. She said she wanted to take a day off from everyone. Kristin then chose Giulio because she knew they'd have a great time on their date. Kara picked Ian because they had been hanging out a lot and she wanted to know him more. Finally Melissa chose Jerome and stated that she didn't care what anyone else thought about it. Melissa and Jerome went o

After the last bonfire, the girls went back to Palmetto and Melissa was the most upset over what she saw and heard from Michael's video. Melissa took off her necklace and dropped it in Giulio's shirt pocket. Stephanie was also upset about what she saw in Anthony's tape. She said it reminded her of when she and Anthony fell in love. She was talking to Jeff by the pool and told him how she missed when Anthony felt the same way about her as he clearly did about Ashley.The next day at Luna, the boys began contemplating who they wanted to pick for their final dates. Michael, surprisingly said that he may pick Ida for his final date and not Tiffany. Mark called everyone together and told the guys they needed to pick their final dates. Mark told them that the dates were overnight dates and were truly ""awesome."" Eric chose first and he selected Ida. But Ida denied him and forced Eric to sit back down while the other guys selected their dates. Jason then selected his date. He chose Amy and she

Everyone returned back to the island and Kara especially wondered what the experience did for Jason. Mark brought the girls together and told them they had 5-10 final minutes before the singles would leave and they would go to the final bonfire. Kara was worried about the bonfire, while Stephanie and Jeff embraced and Melissa and Jerome soaked up their last moments together in a paddle boat. Melissa said she didn't want to go to the bonfire, but instead wanted to stay on the island with Jerome. Over at Luna, the guys took a few final moments with their single girls before they went to the final bonfire. Ashley broke down crying before Anthony left. At the final bonfire, Jason met up with Mark first. He waited patiently for Kara as Mark talked to him about his experience. Mark said he really watched Jason grow up over the time. Jason said he finally saw what he needed to change, his anger, etc. in order to better himself for his girlfriend and their life together. Mark then brought Kara
