Ready for Unseen Bits in Love Island Season 9 Episode 13. The producer are like, Who is Aaron? We don’t know that man, never seen that man. I’m looking throughout the episode like where is this man Lana was in bed talking about I don’t like being an option. The man ain’t even got options, at least you are an option sis. The guy’s greatest connection is his water bottle. Can we just get him out, I’m done seeing him.
Typically, I go in chronological order, but there was so much back and forth. So I’m just gonna talk about the Ron situation, talk about the Spencer situation and then get to the second half. In the previous episode, we saw Zara growing very impatient with Tom because she had just won him back. And this man does not want to be a kept man, he wants to play the field and Ellie is here to play it with him.
Love Island Season 9 Episode 12 Recap
Before diving into Love Island Season 9 Episode 13, let’s quickly recap the previous Episode. So Ron is talking to Lana and basically is saying you’re it, I don’t want to explore. Lana gives him a bone and says do not say that to me because you might talk to her and have an Intrigue that’ll take back what you just said, and that maybe I do want to pursue that. This man says no, it’s just you.
At the end of that evening, she’s very frustrated with him because she’s like I told you not to tell me it was just me until you had the opportunity to explore. She has been very lenient with this man, whenever he has his eye on somebody else, she’s like okay do you, just don’t sell me a dream because you’re gonna have to live up to it.
So I fully understand her frustration, I’m glad she told him she’s gonna step back. And even Ellie was giving him another bone saying hey I just want to know that you’ve been clear with Lana that you’re going to explore. And he’s like yeah, I told her.
Ron pisses me off so much, mainly because he is duplicitous, and Tom is duplicitous. And it makes sense that whenever they’re having their little gist, it’s always the two of them and somebody else, most likely Kai, because their mindset is the same. If I just say what my girl wants to hear and then do whatever I want to do, it’s fine. She’ll be none the wiser.
And this man had the audacity to be like well yeah, I mean it’s documented. Yeah, bro, it is documented, it will follow you, and Lana will see this back. Or the producers are going to pull a shady move and show her the footage before she even leaves the villa, So why not just be straight, just be straight?
Shaq Talks Straight With Ron
Shaq and Tanya go to the Hideaway, we’re going to talk about that in a minute, but when he comes back from The Hideaway, he calls out to Ron. And I was so glad because none of the other boys in that Circle were ever gonna say something in the way that Shaq said it to him.
I don’t know if all that Sexual Energy just made the man buck up or something, but I’m like yes Shaq thank you, thank you for saying what we’ve all been saying. There’s no problem with exploring your options, but there’s a problem with not being honest about it, completely honest about it, and transparent about it too, don’t just be honest now that you’ve been caught in a situation. Ron’s telling the guys that he is not really feeling it and Ellie is like oh my gosh it’s so great. In the evening he did tell her it was not for me.
Lana did have a short conversation with Spencer, basically saying hey, I am attracted to you, and if you are attracted to me, I’m open to pursuing it, I’m not closed off. It was to spite Ron, and she did go and tell him I’m gonna explore my options, and don’t think that me talking to you means that I’ve stepped forward, I’m still stepping back. No girl, you have not, you have fully stepped forward.
I love that she has acknowledged that in the past she has a tendency of being too nice and gets walked over and taken advantage of because now she’s seeing something similar and she’s able to nip it in the bud before it becomes that scenario all over again. And I think that Ron does notice that Lana has that kind heart, that overly forgiving heart.
And even with Ellie, he has said she’s too forward. Basically, she’s too overpowering for him, and it kind of makes sense to me because I feel like he needs somebody who can be pushed over, and up until this episode Lana was that person. So I’m glad she found her feet and found her bearings, and I hope that she keeps adding pressure on this man.
Tanya And Shaq In The Hideaway
Spencer and Olivia had a date, and it was so dry. She’s just kind of like blah, and you know Spencer hasn’t given us much of anything either. He is more talkative than Tom is, so their conversations are easier to follow, but the date was just dry.
Kai is getting his teacher mode with Tanyel and basically talking about the moon, and this girl could not care less. I expected a lot of a lot more personality from Tanyel, not to say she hasn’t given us anything, but I thought she’d be like the girl from Amber season, Anna. But one thing about Tanyel is that her face is gonna tell on her before anything else, at least fake that you’re interested.
Anyways, they get a text that they get to vote for a couple in the Hideaway, and it is Shaq and Tanya. This Hideaway is Beautiful, and these two got busy. My thing with these two is that I want to believe it, and even in previous episodes, I was like, man, Shaq might actually be the lover boy that he claims to be, I don’t think he’s disingenuous at all.
I like them together, I just fear that it was the whole we are the only possible people who could pair with each other, so let’s just go with it, rather than saying I’ve exhausted my options and you are the one who is the best out of everyone to pick from.
Now that they have had sex, it makes things complicated if there is a situation where somebody comes in who does spark the other person’s interest. No, they are not exclusive, and no they’re not dating, but they have gone all the way. So it does add another factor that could make potentially exploring a new connection very messy. But they enjoyed their night, so let’s just stay on that.
Truth Or Date
The group plays Truth or Dare, and My God did a lot go on, let’s go down the list. Olivia thinks Tom and Spencer are attracted to her. Spencer thinks Tanyel, Lana, and Olivia are the sexiest. Will gives Tanya the ick, Ellie thinks Tom is the fittest Islander, Ellie thinks Kai is the most boring, and Aaron thinks Zara is the most likely to talk behind somebody’s back. Lana thanks Shaq and Tanya will be the most successful, while Tom and Zara will be the least successful.
Olivia takes Tom home to Meet the parents, and Zara thinks Lana is the most trustworthy, while Olivia is the least trustworthy. If Tom was to build a perfect partner, Tom thinks Olivia would have the face, Zara would have the body, and Lana would have the personality. Honestly, in this game, Zara was taking hits, and the girl was just left right, and center taking hits.
I’m like oh, this has got to hurt, you already done dealt with Olivia who’s clearly not finished with her stupidness, then you got um Ellie in the mix too. And then you got a man who doesn’t know how to make a woman feel desired, how to make a woman feel like their priority. He says it, but the actions don’t align. Now we will discuss when will Episode 13 of Love Island Season 9 will release.
