Love Is Blind: Argentina Season 1 Episode 6 Recap: Strengthening Connections (2024)

The cast of Love Is Blind: Argentina is in for a huge surprise: it turns out there was one more couple who got engaged in the pods, and now they're rejoining the experiment. Their untimely arrival causes a huge shakeup among the rest of the cast members.

In this episode of the reality TV series, some of the couples begin to introduce one another to their family and friends. After only knowing each other for ten days, things are quickly going from zero to 100.

Florencia And José Luis Return To The Experiment

The episode opens with a major surprise: Florencia shares that she and José Luis actually did get engaged during the experiment, though they chose not to go to Mexico with the rest of the cast because they felt their relationship wasn't ready for it. That said, now they're moving into an apartment together and joining the experiment once again.

Florencia tells the cameras that she wants to marry José Luis, but that they both need to address their pasts; she had a connection with Tom, and he had a connection with Juli. She mentions that Juli "interrupted" her toast after her engagement to José Luis, and she's still holding a bit of a grudge about it.

José Luis says Florencia needs constant affection, which he's still adjusting to. Later, they go to meet up with Santi and Emily, and Santi notes how unexpected it is to see them again, telling the cameras that he doesn't feel José Luis is very genuine. Florencia tells the cameras that she knows people may be doubting their connection:

Santi says he hopes he's wrong about José Luis, but that, for the time being, he's still not buying it.

The Rest Of The Couples Settle In

Meanwhile, Florfi and Tom go to a ceramics class to make pottery for their home together, remarking at how calm they feel together. Juli's reunited with her two dogs, and she's pleased to see them taking to Ezequiel quickly. Ezequiel is happy to see a softer side of Juli come out around her pets, as she's not typically very affectionate.

Later, the group gathers together, and Florencia gets to talk with Tom for the first time. Tom tells the cameras that while she seems sweet, seeing her in real life confirms that she's not his type. Florfi is pleased to see that being around Florencia doesn't make Tom uncomfortable, solidifying her confidence in their relationship.

Back at their apartment, things feel distant between Mauricio and Maria. Maria shares that she feels like he doesn't listen to the things she's saying, and her reaction is to pull away, not wanting to make conversation if he's not going to express an interest in getting to know more about her. She notes with sadness that the way they talk now is very different from how they spoke in the pods.

Later, the two go to a bachata dance class to try to rekindle things between them. The instructor encourages them to communicate with their body movements, and Maria notes that she feels like it strengthened their connection. For his part, Mauri says that it helped him to open up, as he knows he can be a little shy sometimes.

Maria tells the cameras that she's glad they still have more time in the experiment, and that hopefully they can use it to keep strengthening their relationship until they have to make a decision at the altar.

The First Family Introduction

The next day, Emily takes Santi to meet her family. They greet him with happy tears, her mother Andrea saying how nice it is to see her daughter after the experiment. It turns out Emily has a lot of relatives, and Santi jokes, "They just keep coming!" That said, he's grateful to feel immediately "drawn in" by her family.

Emily's dad prepares a barbecue lunch for the group, and while they eat, Santi and Emily reveal how quickly their wedding day is coming up. Emily's father and Santi have a word alone, and Santi assures him that he'll take care of her. In the end, Santi's father gives them his blessing, and Emily shares that everything about the afternoon felt perfect.

Later, Florfi brings Tom to the skate shop, showing him how to ride a skateboard in a bowl. Tom is impressed by her skills and notes how much he likes doing virtually any activity with her. He tells the cameras how much he's looking forward to their relationship progressing:

Florfi says that though she's entirely in love with Tom, she's still in a "self-discovery" process within the experiment to see if she wants to get married at the end of it.

At the end of the episode, José Luis brings Florencia to meet his mother Blanca, who is a force. She shows Florencia baby photos of her son, then asks how things are going in their relationship. When José Luis asks his mother what she thinks of his fiancée, she's honest in saying it's hard for her to have an opinion after just five minutes of talking to her.

Blanca tells the cameras that she worries Florencia seems a little insecure and lonely. "I'm worried that she might take refuge with José Luis," she says. She's all the more shocked, then, when her son reveals that they're actually engaged. In the very last scene, Juli brings Ezequiel to meet some of her friends, who are surprised to hear Juli say she's only "kind of" in love with him.
