However tonight’s episode is just not all doom and gloom. There’s additionally some joyful moments. Like when Karli, who has been labelled high-maintenance, will get her hair ruined in a freak storm.
“I didn’t suppose Karli would go within the rain — she’ll have to repair her make-up 12 instances,” sneers her nemesis Caitlin. “I simply hope her pretend tan doesn’t run onto her white costume.”
Sadly, Karli’s costume stays stain free. Boo! However that’s OK — producers have a backup plan. They organise a date the place she has to crush crimson grapes whereas sporting the white costume. Yay!
Over at Farmer Tom’s homestead, the harem has been whittled down forward of schedule. Two girls stay: Sarah and Krissy.
“My intestine and my coronary heart and each ounce of my being needs to be with this man,” Krissy gushes to us. “If I’m not chosen, I’ll be completely shattered.”
Uh-oh. This can be a traditional actuality TV trick by evil producers. They’re setting her up for failure.
Let’s lower to Farmer Tom, who’s mulling over his doubts forward of the ultimate choice.
“I do care enormously for Krissy. … However there’s fairly a big age hole between the 2 of us. It’s a bit regarding,” he grunts.
We all know precisely how that is going to finish. He’s 22. She’s 29. That’s virtually 3 times his age within the actuality TV universe. It’ll by no means work out.
However Nanna Krissy has no concept she’s about to get dumped. She pulls on a blue Cinderella costume with poofy sleeves and jumps into the chauffeured D-MAX. She makes the driving force blast Religion Hill’s 1998 hit This Kiss on the stereo and she or he scream-sings the refrain out the open window because the ute speeds alongside the freeway.
By the point the chariot rolls right into a random paddock and Farmer Tom comes into sight, Krissy thinks that is her huge princess second. Minutes later, her coronary heart will get tossed within the sugar cane crusher.
“While you commit, you commit 110 per cent. I’m unsure I can provide the similar factor in that scenario since you give a lot,” Farmer Tom mumbles. “I simply don’t know if I could be the particular person to supply that in return. I’ve determined I can’t see myself persevering with on on this relationship.”
Krissy’s surprised. She thought for certain he was going to select her. She’d even ordered his-and-hers R.M. Williams boots.
“I’m a bit shocked and I believe I’ve a legitimate cause to be,” she snips. “I didn’t see this coming. It felt actually actual for me. I’m shocked.”
She turns away and trudges again by means of the paddock in direction of the D-MAX. All of a sudden, Tom runs after her.
“I positively didn’t do you justice,” he gasps when he lastly catches up. “I did the flawed factor by you. I kinda didn’t go into what you probably did imply to me … nah, it’s flawed. I noticed you there. I clearly really feel horrible and I simply kinda panicked and rushed it. I simply can’t clarify how grateful I’m and every thing … however, nah, I’m really sorry for that … however … yeah …”
Krissy sucks in a deep breath.
“Stroll me to the automobile then,” she says.
Tom escorts her to the D-MAX and the chariot rumbles away down a dust highway, lastly disappearing in a cloud of mud.
Then it’s time for Sarah to be chauffeured into the paddock.
“After placing a number of consideration in, at this cut-off date, Sarah, you’re the particular person I desire a relationship with and I’m falling in love with you,” Farmer Tom grunts.
“I really like you,” Sarah whispers as they kiss.
Their love is everlasting — just like the crimson grape stains on Karli’s white costume.
