Each couple got to re-up their subscriptions for love. All except for Victor, so in the end is came down to him picking between two women he didn't really know. Brook had been sure it was her going home, Carina was new if she had been the one up there, she would have picked Carina to give her a chance. But she understood that maybe since her and Victor had been here since the start there was that sort of OG Islander vibe and she appreciated him giving her a chance.<br/><br/>When Victor came to sit with her, she leaned in and gave him a brief hug as she whispered to him, "Thank you for selecting me. I understand it's just a friend coupling. I'm so sorry your couple got broken up. If ever want to talk about it, let me know. I'm not expecting anything from this." She pointed at him and herself. "I know you'll need to be with her." Brook gave Victor a smile and friendly nod. "We got this. It will all be sorted in the next recoupling."<br/><br/>.... Carina was asked to say her goodbyes and leave by Laura.<br/><br/>In character for Brook she really hadn't realized that Carina must have been alone so much. Brook was desperately trying to grapple with her own feelings and heartache. She just assumed that Carina had been making friends with other people. So she was a little shocked when Carina was so upset.  Brook did her best to just let it slide off, she had to reconcile that Carina was probably hurt and lashing out. It was disappointing that Carina felt this way but it wasn't her sole personal responsibility to fix people's feelings. Hell, she had a hard enough time trying not to break down and lash out herself at certain islanders.<br/><br/>There was no proper chance to say goodbye, there was no opportunity to see if Carina was going to be alright because Carina didn't want to speak to anyone. Just like earlier when Carina had stormed out at breakfast, it was Carina who choose to close herself off to everyone. Brook felt bad but there was little she could do now.<br/><br/>Victor jogged after Carina and left Brook sitting there alone. She wasn't surprised but she hoped that maybe since Carina seemed to like him at least that it would bring her some small comfort.  He returned a short moment later, gave Brook a simple -hey. Then they all had to get ready for the next vote because more people were about to be sent home.
