Perfect Match Season 3 Episode 2 brought more drama, new arrivals, and a tense compatibility game that changed the game for some couples. The episode aired on August 1, 2025, on Netflix, and fans saw major shifts in relationships as singles fought to stay in the villa.
New Arrivals and First Dates
The episode started with two first dates. Juliette went surfing with Carrington, while Madison had her first date with Freddie. Both couples seemed to hit it off, but things got complicated when host Nick Lachey dropped a bombshell.
He announced that with seven girls and five boys in the villa, the women held the power. They had to choose who to match with, leaving two men without partners. Those two would be sent home.
By the end of the night, the new couples were:
- AD and Ollie
- Sandy and Louis
- Lucy and Daniel
- Madison and Freddie
- Juliette and Clayton
Carrington and Cody were left without matches and had to leave the villa.
The “You Like Whaaat?!!” Compatibility Challenge
The next day, Nick introduced a new challenge called “You Like Whaaat?!!” where couples had to guess each other’s answers to personal questions. The winning pair would get a private date and matchmaking power in the Boardroom.
The questions included:
- What would they say to make someone fall in love with them?
- The boldest move they’ve made to get attention.
- What meal would they cook to impress a partner?
After intense rounds, AD and Ollie won by just one point over Madison and Freddie.
“You will head out on a date tonight, and you will visit me in the boardroom, where you will have all the matchmaking power. Congrats, guys, well done,” Nick announced.
Boardroom Power and a Cliffhanger Ending
AD and Ollie enjoyed churros on their date while discussing their Boardroom strategy. The next morning, they saw four new single women and had to choose two to bring into the villa.
They picked Rachel to go on a date with Freddie but disagreed on the second choice. The episode ended before they made their final decision, leaving fans eager for the next episode.
Current Couples and Fan Reactions
By the end of the first six episodes, some couples have stayed strong while others faced drama. AD and Ollie are now engaged in real life and expecting a baby, despite being separated in the show. Other couples still together include:
- Lucy and Daniel (despite arguments)
- Sandy and Louis (facing minor conflicts)
- Rachel and Scott (newly matched)
- Madison and Jalen (after Freddie left)
Fans are divided on the season’s authenticity, with some calling it entertaining and others criticizing it as scripted.
“This season is the cherry on top, highlighting just how dumb this show is, with most of its content being fake and scripted.”
Despite the mixed reactions, Perfect Match Season 3 continues to bring twists, new faces, and unexpected pairings.
