[PREVIEW] 'Love Is Blind' 4, Part 2: Reality Hits

The pods and sunny Mexico are in the rearview mirror, so it’s time for our four surviving couples to move into Seattle townhouses and start hashing out chore wheels. This is where the rubber meets the road. It’s the first opportunity the couples have to see if they can stand each other not just through a wall or at a lavish resort, but while managing the quotidian annoyances of delayed dish-washing, incompatible budgets, divergent life plans, and mismatched aesthetics. Brett drips water on the bathroom floor after showering; Paul keeps a sheathed Bowie knife on every flat surface in his home; Chelsea has never met a pink appliance she doesn’t immediately buy; Jackie is prone to long and intractable bad moods; Kwame doesn’t want to leave Portland even though his job is fully remote and Chelsea’s is very much not. And that’s not all! For the first time ever, a “Love Is Blind” participant is setting his sights on a full switcheroo. After Zack and Irina’s engagement ended so catastrophically that even the two of them couldn’t help but laugh, Zack headed back to Seattle to meet up with his also-ran, Bliss. And it wasn’t just a friendly catchup! Instead, it seems the two sweet nerdlings felt chemistry in that bar and grill, and they’re soon dating in earnest. We’ve seen engagements crash and burn before… but going back for a chance with the runner-up? It’s fresh, it’s new, it’s (dare we say) rather Jason Mesnick. (What is it about the men in the Seattle area?)This week, we dive into the three new episodes, try to figure out what the fuck is Irina’s deal, try to figure out what the fuck is Micah’s actual BFF Shelby’s deal, assess everyone’s families and home decor style, try to figure out what the fuck Kwame actually wants, and update our verdicts on who should get married and who are our greatest friends and enemies.
