Alissa and Gia Drive Rachel Steven Mafs Australia Fallout on 6 May
rachel steven mafs australia turned on a single episode of pressure on Wednesday 6 May. Alissa leaned toward Conor, while Gia pushed Scott to choose between leaving together or ending it there.
The final-stage exercise put alternative matches in front of the couples before spouses later saw the footage. David stepped away from it entirely, and Scott ended the night after Gia quit alone.
Alissa and Conor
Alissa met Conor, a 31-year-old gym owner from Queensland, and quickly set the tone with a line that made her position impossible to miss: “I actually don’t care if my husband comes for me.” She later told David she had only been joking when he confronted her over the comments.
That exchange mattered because the exercise was built to test marriages against temptation and outside influence, and Alissa used it as a public flirtation rather than a guarded conversation. David’s choice not to take part left Crystal to mingle with the other grooms, which kept the pressure off one side of the marriage but not the other.
Gia and James
Gia met James, a 36-year-old working in sales and marketing, and went further than a passing flirtation. She told him she would happily be a “trophy wife,” encouraged him to find her outside the experiment, and said she only had one week left with Scott.
She then told Scott to leave with her immediately or accept that the relationship was over. He refused to be pressured, and Gia quit the experiment alone.
Scott after the footage
Scott was later shown footage of Gia’s meeting with James after she had already left, and he was left in floods of tears. That sequence gave the episode its sharpest break: Gia treated the alternative-match exercise as a way out, while Scott had to absorb the fallout after the decision was already made.
For viewers tracking who is still standing in the experiment, the practical takeaway is simple: this episode did not just create tension, it changed the shape of at least one marriage in real time. Gia left, Scott stayed, and the rest of the season now carries that split into the next round of decisions.
