Summary
During last night’s recoupling, we saw the girls each praise the Casa Amor man they coupled up with, some even saying they were the “perfect man.” Then we heard Melanie, Kayda and Aniya all criticize the boy they had been coupled up with, talking about the hurt and distrust they felt for them. But when decision time came, they all dumped the nice guys, the men who they said all made them feel seen and validated. Amy and T.J. talk about why it seems, nice guys always finish last.
Stay tuned for our next episode, where T.J. explains why K.C. dumped sweet Aniya for Titi.

| 0:05.9 | Hey, that folks. |
| 0:07.0 | It is Saturday, June 27th, and why do good guys finish last? |
| 0:15.0 | We're looking at you, Carl, but we're asking you, Amy Roboc. |
| 0:19.9 | And with that, welcome to this Love Island, Love Lesson Edition of Amy and T.J. |

| 0:39.1 | Did that phrase come to mind? |
| 0:39.7 | Yes, this is the age-old question that I think a lot of nice guys ask, why do nice guys always |
| 0:46.8 | finish last? |
| 0:47.6 | And hashtag Carl. |
| 0:49.4 | I mean, Carl was trending on X all night long because, yeah, he was in a lot of ways comedic relief, |
| 0:57.3 | but also you felt for him he's such a good guy that even when he got rejected, he was |
| 1:02.1 | feeling for Anaya and telling her it was going to be okay. He recognized pretty quickly, |
| 1:08.1 | I think, that he wasn't going to be her choice when she started praising him, which I know might seem counterintuitive. You're such a nice guy. You're the |
| 1:15.8 | perfect man. You're everything I dreamed of. You check every box. How many of those women said |
| 1:21.6 | that to the Casa Amor guys last night while they were rejecting them? Okay. Right off the top. Why, in your opinion, |
| 1:31.3 | did Anaya not pick Carl? Because she wasn't sexually attracted to him or physically. It wasn't |
| 1:40.6 | that he isn't good looking. He's an attractive man. He has a great body. He has a strong jaw line. |
