- [LAUGHING] - What's up, sweetie?
WOMAN: This is the last time we're coming
together before decision day.
In a couple of days, we have to make the biggest
decision in our life.
And that is that whether or not we're going to stay together.
It's a big deal.
Rachel asked me, well, what would the reasons be that you
wouldn't stay married to me?
And I said, well, you know, effort, communication, right?
So things like that.
I mean, not to put anyone else on the spot, but, I mean, what
are y'all's reasons to say no?
I guess mine would be if wifey just continues
to live like she's single.
Well.
It's a lot of things that she said,
even before we even got married, she
said she wasn't going to change certain things about herself,
no matter what.
So-- and I feel like that's a selfish way
to go into a marriage without knowing
who you're going to marry.
So I feel like if she's not willing to change
for the right reasons, that would make me say no.
Next.
[LAUGHING]
Johnny?
WOMAN: [LAUGHING]
MAN: Hey, my man.
WOMAN: He's so-- he's so good at it.
MAN: You got it, baby.
(CLEARING THROAT) Come on, Coach.
JOHNNY: Um, the way that I would say yes on decision day
is if I saw some potential.
Might as well give it a shot.
Yes or no on decision day.
Just keep hanging out and see what happens.
Might be surprised.
WOMAN: You never know.
It really does take two people to start the marriage,
to sustain the marriage.
But it just takes one person to end the marriage.
And for me, going into this, I came in 100%.
I was looking for my forever.
I was hoping to fall in love.
I was hoping this is it.
And when I committed to doing this,
it took a lot for me because I'm just not--
I'm not somebody that takes big risks.
I'm not somebody that puts myself out there.
I got matched with Johnny.
And he challenged me.
And in many ways, he challenged me to be a better person.
And so decision day, while it might seem arbitrary,
I feel like it's not because saying no
is really an announcement that someone's out.
And I don't think I could get over that.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
I don't think I view decision day like Belle.
A yes for me on decision day means this'll work for me.
This means over the last eight weeks, I was happy.
And I want to continue.
Can I ask you a question then on that?
If you were thinking no, for example,
but you intend to continue to see where this goes after,
why can't it be a yes and then decide no concretely
after you've given it a chance?
Right, because like I said, if I were
to say yes, then that is me saying this last eight weeks
have been great.
This has worked out for me.
I've been happy.
And I'm ready to go.
It's-- it's different for me.
I mean, for it to be a no, I really don't think emotionally
I can come back from that.
If it's a yes, and it ends up being a no later, fine.
But a yes to me is like, all right,
it might be [BLEEP] right now.
But we can work on it.
And I see potential in this.
And let's just see where it goes.
I reflect on the possibility that I might say yes
and Johnny says no.
And that's it for me.
For me, a no is like, I'm done with this.
I would be checked out.
Zach and I had this conversation about what
I thought a no meant.
And yes, a no to me was a rejection.
And that rejection equals humiliation to me.
And that's why I didn't want to know.
And that's why I didn't want to understand his no.
WOMAN: I see both sides.
So I hear what you guys are saying
about if we continue to be married
even after a decision day.
I don't give a [BLEEP] about the legality of the marriage.
I don't care that there's a certificate
that says we're married.
WOMAN: Yeah.
My-- what I cared about is that we made a decision.
We got married.
We had witnesses, and our families became one.
And on decision day, the question is,
do you want to stay married?
Or do you want a divorce?
And if the answer is a divorce, OK, that's it for me.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
JOHNNY: Belle is making it very, very clear
that a no on decision day means the end of this marriage,
no matter what.
It's very absolute.
And it's not the way that I'm thinking about it.
But I hear her.
And based on that, I have a lot to think about.
