Part 4: Crazy Little Thing Called Love ❤
-Boomer and the others found it suspicious Livie invited them to the Event Room where Holt was found dead, but Livie swore someone slipped her an envelope claiming to be Holt
-The yacht crashed into something and everyone woke up on a new island with a “cabana” vibe. They each awoke in a separate guest room
-Most of everyone’s belongings (including all their Kopu Kopus) were lost in the crash
-Everyone met Carter, the activities director of the island they’re on (Isle Amour). The group found out this island hosts a swingers retreat that was currently celebrating their 4th annual “Lover’s Fest”
-Carter explained to the group that the cruise ship would be returning in a week to pick them up. The group would be allowed to stay at the resort and partake in the “activities” if they wished
-Several new Isle Amour characters were introduced such as Austin, Atsuto, Trish, Naysha and Blair who served no true purpose till the end of Part 4
-Austin was a sleazy cowboy who only wanted to get laid (equally so with Naysha and Trish)
-Blair was a “ghost writer super fan,” obsessed with Abeer
-Atsuto was an old Japanese man who believed in love over lust. He moved there to be near the ocean after his wife passed
-Vivienne discovered the island didn’t have cell service either
-Josie, Devin, Boomer, Zach, Alex and Livie took advantage of the free time and did some flirting. Alex, Boomer and Livie got cold feet, but Josie, Zach and Devin went all in
-Vivienne made a friend out of Atsuto on the beach
-Alex found a poster promoting the “Red Hot Hot Spring” party. It’s the wrap-up party at the end of the retreat
-Eric, Josie and Alex broke into the boathouse
-Josie and Alex stole the emergency boat to explore, but Eric refrained. On Alex and Josie’s trip, they noticed the emergency boat didn’t hold enough gas to reach the surrounding islands. The closest islands were Bora Bora and Paradise Island
-Alex and Josie’s boat ran out of gas and they had to be escorted back by a second emergency boat. Josie convinced the fisherman to take her to the yacht crash, but there was no sign of the ship. It apparently sank underwater
-Jimmy and Bethy bonded
-Dina and Boomer got to third base
-Eric, Vivienne, Bethy, Meghan and some other contestants repeatedly resisted the staff’s and swinger’s advances
-Livie and Vivienne reprimanded Josie and Alex for stealing Isle Amour’s boat. Livie told the two of them they’d have to help pay for the boathouse damages, but Josie pinned the majority of the blame on Alex
-Bethy rescued Ella from some guys trying to take advantage of her. Ella was acting very strange in her room and tried to convince both Bethy *and* Jimmy to sleep with her. Jimmy left the room, very upset, but Bethy followed him and helped him through it
-Josie talked to Atsuto about Paradise Island
-Abeer was finally introduced to Blair, who asked him for his autograph
-Devin, Meghan, Josie, Bethy and Jimmy met DJ Freaky Nubs. His music made Josie, Bethy and Jimmy completely lose control of their bodies and their concept of time
-Boomer unknowingly saved Bethy, Josie and Jimmy by tripping over the DJ booth cord and yanking it out of the wall
-Meghan followed the cord and saw a guard re-plug it into the wall. She decided to finish the job and cut the cord with a knife
-Devin and Boomer speculated on who might be the owner of Isle Amour, since it clearly wasn’t Carter
-Boomer and Devin discovered that there was a certain scent that makes people very desirable. The scent somehow found it’s way onto Devin. It completely controlled Boomer and made him repeat himself over and over
-Abeer caught Blair following him, but after some conversation Blair convinced Abeer to visit the Red Hot Hot Spring with him. Abeer and Blair made plans to visit the spring at a later date
-Dina talked with Atsuto about his late wife and he gave her advice to “run with love” if given the option
-Austin asked Josie to hang, but she didn’t want to. Austin however was wearing the “scent” so Josie didn’t have much of a choice. She was under his spell until a random girl threw pickle juice on him, masking the smell
-Carter told Devin that the Red Hot Hot Spring party had been moved up to tomorrow
-Devin discovered the source of the “scent” was a heart shaped cologne bottle called “Desire.” He found one in Carter’s room
-Zach was led to the Red Hot Hot Springs by Brooke, a girl who claimed to be his girlfriend. The hot springs’ water is an aqua blue
-Zach stepped into the spring and Brooke transformed into a siren, attempting to drown Zach
-Dina (who was trailing behind them) luckily saved Zach, being immune to the song as a straight woman
-Boomer calls a meeting with Josie, Dina, Bethy, Jimmy, Zach, Ella, and Devin. Devin informed the group about “Desire” and to keep a safe distance. Josie let the group know about her run in with Austin and the pickle juice. Dina spoke up about her siren attack and once Jimmy suggested earplugs, the group had the whole package
-They split up into duos to discover who was a siren and who wasn’t by smelling them. One partner would sniff and the other partner would be prepared to pull the sniffer away if needed. They also looked for supplies
-Boomer and Dina managed to grab pickle juice, but also managed to get into a fight with Austin
-Alex was saved by Bethy and Jimmy from a very aggressive gay couple wearing “Desire.” Bethy and Jimmy informed Alex what was going on and he joined their duo
-Boomer killed Brooke the siren by pushing her out of a window. He noticed she bled blue
-Devin and Ella steal balloons to make pickle balloon grenades for the sirens
-Dina, Zach and Boomer decided to get some information about “Desire” from Austin in the cafeteria. They sent Zach over because of Boomer and Austin’s fight. Zach discovered that you could buy “Desire” in the gift shop
-Bethy, Alex and Jimmy stole a nurses keys and went into the supply room. They stocked up on earplugs
-Alex noticed he lost his notepad somewhere on Paradise Island
-Ella, Zach, Josie and Boomer combined their ingredients and started making the pickle balloon grenades
-Jimmy passed out ear plugs to people he saw
-Abeer and Blair finally decided to check out the Red Hot Hot Spring
-Devin was headed to the Red Hot Hot Spring to deliver a package for Carter. When he saw Abeer and Blair, he decided to spy
-Bethy saw Abeer and Blair heading to the Red Hot Hot Spring and convinced Livie to follow them. When *they* arrived they joined Devin’s spy spot
-Abeer walked down the path and spotted the group hiding. Bethy and Livie were amazed that Abeer was able to say no to Blair, and wondered if Blair wasn’t wearing “Desire”
-Livie decided they needed a second opinion and approached Blair. She made her intentions too obvious however and Blair transformed into a siren, hypnotizing her
-Bethy had time to put in her ear plugs, but Abeer and Devin were already in a trance
-Livie, Abeer and Devin started walking towards the hot spring to be drowned or devoured by Blair. Bethy tried to save them all, but she didn’t have enough hands
-Raven was going for a hike nearby listening to music when she spotted Bethy in trouble. She helped Bethy put in everyone’s earplugs
-Blair’s song was now useless and the group turned their back on him, returning to the resort
-Jimmy, Josie, Ella and Boomer confronted Zach about him buying “Desire.” Jimmy threw the bottle at the closed door and accidentally killed a regular girl who walked in at the wrong time
-Zach threatened to tell and Jimmy threatened to pin it on Zach. Jimmy dragged the body under Zach’s bed and blackmailed him into staying quiet
-Daisy was fatally stung by a bee while tanning. Josie and Boomer couldn’t save her
-Jimmy confessed his murder to Bethy
-Alex watched a man in the kitchen pour liquid “Desire” into tiny capsules. The man left the room long enough for Alex to try some of the juice
-Josie caught Alex walking in a daze and accidentally knocked him into the pool
-Alex and Josie discovered that the only cure for the “Desire liquid” was to be splashed by water or something else
-Eric and Atsuto talked about their careers
-Josie and Alex followed Austin to the Red Hot Hot Spring. They witnessed him drown two girls with his siren song
-Alex was quick enough to pop in his earbuds and Josie’s. Together they lifted a giant rock and knocked Austin unconscious
-Blair approached Livie and Abeer, trying to bait them into sound crazy for security. Abeer noticed right away and saved Livie
-Josie and Alex fished Austin out of the spring and tied him to a tree nearby. They interrogated him and found that sirens had to play by certain rules enforced by their “master.” They aren’t allowed to force anybody to the spring using “Desire” unless it’s the day of the Red Hot Hot Spring party. They get one day of the year to cheat and lie their way to a good meal
-Devin had a depressed feeling weighing on him all day. It pushed him into a drunken spiral
-The Red Hot Hot Spring party began
-Alex and Josie refused to let Austin go and he committed suicide to avoid further questioning
-Everyone (besides Josie, Alex and Zach) was infected with “Desire” through the speakers of the hotel
-Zack, Alex and Josie began waking people up by spraying them with water or pickle balloons
-One by one everyone woke up. The group stood at the Red Hot Hot Spring, surrounded by sirens. Boomer handed out earplugs to everyone
-The sirens were forced to attack physically (without the use of their song). The group killed the lesser sirens and captured Blair in the spring again
-Blair told Ella he’d reveal “everything” if she looked in the “Pond of Truth”
-Ella approached the pond and saw her dream life. A husband and a loving family, far away from here. Blair asked Ella if she’d like to go there and she said yes. Blair then dragged her into the spring and either drowned her or ate her. No one knows
-Blair returned shortly to mock the group and answer questions. He told the group that they “might be the ones to do it” and that he “should have had more faith in them”
-Blair explained to everyone that to find their Kopu Kopus they’d have to “look in the right place.” He also told them “it’s always been about you”
-Atsuto shot Blair in the head for talking too much, revealing himself to be the owner of Isle Amour. Atsuto explained that his wife was raped and murdered at a very elderly age. After that he lost all faith in humanity and felt too many people chose lust over love. Atsuto felt that “heathens” needed to be punished, and only then was he introduced to his “purpose.”
-The group begged for their life, but Atsuto didn’t care. He asked them if they truly believed they were “innocent” and that no matter what, they were apart of something “bigger than life itself”
-Finally, Atsuto muttered something to himself about “this not being the plan” before he was gunned down by police
-Everyone was introduced to Kimmy Knightley when her news team rescued the group from Isle Amour
-The group was allowed to quickly make TV announcements before being loaded up into helicopters and being flown to Bora Bora
-Back on Isle Amour, Jackie’s neck had been slit and her body was propped up on display
-Carter was nowhere to be found after they left Isle Amour
