‘MAFS’ S20 E7-9: Live, Vibe, Jetski

Three weeks into “Married At First Sight,” the couples really start to settle into their marriages. Some of them take the plunge into sexual intimacy, while others are still tinkering with basic communication. Nikki and Shawn practice using “I” statements and relinquishing power. Caitlin finally dims Devin’s light to an acceptable soft glow, while he lovingly compares her to a frozen lake. Courteney’s hatred for Nick deepens by the hours, as is his determination to pretend it’s fine. Marissa has effortlessly melted her life into Adam’s jetskiing, peacocking, thrift-shopping vibe, and they have no plans other than to just keep vibing it out, full send. After some couples counseling and a group dinner, spied on by Paul and Dr. Lisa, the experts arrive to the first group therapy session ready to call everyone out – especially Adam and Mecca. But given some of these bizarre pairings, they may need to be called out just as much as any of the newlyweds.
