After leaving last week’s episode on a sour note, Rachel and Jose seem more optimistic this week when they meet up to talk through a recent fight that resulted in him locking her out of the apartment. Though Jose maintains it was unintentional, Rachel thinks she deserves a more genuine apology. She worries that Jose’s bad behavior is a sign of his true personality, but he reassures her that he is going to do better with an apology she deems acceptable.
Day-to-Day

A peek into the other day-to-day activities of the other couples sees Myrla and Gil pose together for photos. Meanwhile, Ryan surprises Brett with a scavenger hunt and breakfast in their apartment, leading to a one-month anniversary card. As they all gear up for the upcoming milestone, Michaela and Zack go on a double-date with Myrla and Gil where they take salsa dancing lessons. The evening starts off OK in the beginning… until Michaela sits out of the paired dances. When Gil questions Michaela’s actions, she claims she tried the activity and wasn’t a fan, so she doesn’t want to dance anymore. But the real issue? She believes her marriage to Zack is moving backward.
Unfortunately for Brett, the light mood of her morning with Ryan is diminished when she comes home to the apartment to find her dog Baxter acting strange after getting sick. After a trip to the vet, Brett learns the dog is in kidney failure leaving her with a tough decision to make. And over at Jose and Rachel’s place, they’re discussing ways to improve communication. In an effort to fix the problems they’ve been having, he shares post-it notes he’s written out to himself as reminders. She appreciates the well-intentioned gesture, but will the positive outlook last?

Johnny and Bao kick off the evening of celebrations with a high-energy skydive which they top off with a barbecue lunch where they discuss their progress. Ultimately, she would like to communicate better about when she needs a hug and he wants more spontaneity when it comes to their sex life.
Gil surprises Myrla with a wine-tasting and fancy food spread at a winery, which she loves. Myrla even admits she’s beginning to fall in love. She has a surprise of her own at home for Gil when she sets up candles, flowers, and chocolates for him to enjoy.
Michaela then brings husband Zack to a music studio for a date, and after a recent off-camera discussion, the duo seems to be in a better place. When they discuss negatives in their marriage, she says there aren’t any, but he thinks her negative is blasting music late at night, despite the callout, she laughs at his comment. Reciprocating the anniversary surprise, Zack takes Michaela on a mini-vaca in the hotel to make up for their lack of a honeymoon.
Brett and Ryan’s celebration consists of a night out at the movies where he arranges for their wedding video to play. We learn that Brett had to make the tough decision to put her dog to sleep, and Ryan does his best to comfort her under the circumstances, but being reminded of his wedding day shows him how much his feelings for Brett are lacking. Meanwhile, Jose takes Rachel on a date to a local baseball field where he has a meal set up for them and they play ball for a bit.
Second Opinion

Coming as no surprise, considering their thoughtful approaches so far in the show, Johnny and Bao each visit a friend to sound off on their concerns. While chatting with his friend Kim, Johnny complains that Bao is too much of a perfectionist, but Kim advises he let go of hang-ups or else he could end up alone. As for Bao, she discusses Johnny’s need for her to initiate affection with pal Annie who suggest she talk about these issues with her husband directly.
Group Dinner

The couples celebrate the one-month anniversary as a whole by going out to dinner where they discuss whether they’re falling in like or love with their spouses. Michaela shares that she recently dropped the “L-word” with Zack. Rachel mentions that, despite recent lows with Jose, that love is still there. And though they say they care for each other, Brett and Ryan admit they’re struggling. Gil, in the meantime, is falling in love with Myrla who has already chosen to love him. Bao tells the table she’s growing in like with Johnny, but brings up recent struggles that set him off. Instead of speaking on the matter, Johnny takes a moment away from the table. He then accuses Bao of lying, saying that she likes to make herself out to be a victim. Jose tries to comfort him, but the episode ends on a negative note.

Johnny is a whiny baby. He needs to participate in his marriage. It's understandable why he's been alone for so long.

I'm on team Bao. I don't think Johnny has been into it from the beginning. I feel bad for Brett she seems like a great person. If things don't work with Ryan, I think someone watching the show will scoop her up. Jose seemed great on this episode, but If I were Rachel I would be wary after last week. I think Micheala is too much of a drama queen for Zack and he is too sensitive for her. So far Gil and Myrla seem like they have the best chance of making it.

Other than Gill, these guys are not trying to put in the work. It seems like they are going into marriage as if it is a fairy tale. You are not ready for marriage if you are thinking you're perfect and looking at the flaws of your spouse. Marriage is about commitment not just feelings. This should be explained to these people before pairing them to get married.

i used to like this shiw, but, its way too much drama. The experts miss matches more than they get it right!!

Except for Gil, the men on this show seem to think the experts would hand them the perfect woman to begin their fairytale marriage. Instead, they were given real human beings as partners who they have to get to know and learn to love. That the guys aren't "feeling it" is ridiculous.

Johnny talks in circle. He wants Bao to enishate sex, then complains she wants sex 3 or 4 times a day. These couples are boring.

I really liked Johnny in the beginning. Thought Bao wasn't going to like him. Boy, I'm sick of his complaining all the time. We'll be alone again soon.
Hate that Zack won't give Mickaela won't give a second chance. He holds grudges. He's using that to keep the marriage from working.
Love Gil and Myrla. The way she is portrayed is only for TV drama. She's way into Gil than we think. Those T shirts were the best! For a man to sum up his feelings like that.
Wish Ryan could like Brett. Such a beautiful woman. He's looking for the superficial when he could have a great, real relationship.

The entire story for Brett and Ryan has changed because of some major editing. After Episode 3, when they showed the Seasons Previews, they showed them all at the dinner and Ryan was saying how much he really cared for this girl and how she was the missing piece in his life. Right after that it showed Brett in a field of flowers with a cute bonnet on. In Episode 11, they did the scene and they showed the part where he said he really cared for her but edited out the part where he said she was his missing piece and her in the flowers. I hope it was just removed because it was to early in the season.

Johnny is not mature enough to get into a marriage; ryan needs to speak up; mrlya needs to show some depth; jose needs to not be so controlling. Bao, you have managed wonderfully, Brett, you deserve a man who will appreciate you, Rachel, you need to be your own person and stop fooling yourself and Gil, you deserve a woman who is not so superficial. Mikayla's is a big baby with emotional maturity of a toddler and Zak, listen to your guts.

Love Gill and Myrla I think they’ll make it. Johnny doesn’t have a clue about relationships let alone marriage… run Bao! Ryan and Brett need to start saying exactly what’s on their minds, Brett I love you girl but pick up after yourself, Ryan you’re looking for Barbie and you need to check yourself! Zach there’s no one perfect and you hold grudges but Mickeala you claim you’re level headed and don’t like it when someone runs but you explode like a child and can’t pack up fast enough to run! Jose the way you spoke to Rachael speaks volumes about the respect you have for women and not in a good light ..be careful Rachael….and Rachael find a hobby for the summer because in reality everyone doesn’t work a job with summers off!

I’ve been watching Married at First Sight from their first season but the last 2 seasons I must say the experts are really off their mark putting couples together. This season is more like a soap opera.

I think that Ryan needs to tell Brett that he can’t live under the same roof with a slob. I love Brett but “ Girl pick up your stuff you’re not a 13 year old teenager!” Ryan open your mouth Brett’s not a mind reader!

I’m impressed the most w/the 2/more ‘senior’ couples…Gil & Marla❣️
Shocking, b/c I didn’t think she was being fair or interested enough @ first…
The others do acknowledge their issues about themselves (which is a +) but, this concept is really a social experiment that @ times creates many awkward moments…
I’m embarrassed to admit…cause, I’m still watching. ;0
I do agree that Johnny is whinny & I’ll add, (socially) immature. Bao is cute, he thinks it’s annoying?! It’s her personality dude! Mind-Numbing Stupidity! I’m certain that cameras on them in the most intimate moments R adding to issues! My heart breaks for Brett.
Losing her dog recently stirred-up my own feelings of that significant loss…
I’m hopeful that maybe Ryan will stop comparing & realize what he has in front of him!
I wish these folks all the best in their journey for LOVE❣️
