So, the couples on 90 Day: The Last Resort are off to the club. Because nothing says “fixing deep-seated relationship issues” like overpriced cocktails and pulsating bass, right? In this week’s episode, “Save The Last Dance,” airing Monday, December 16th at 8:00 PM on TLC, the retreat takes a turn for the potentially disastrous when a night out designed for stress relief quickly becomes a breeding ground for fresh drama.
These couples, already teetering on the precipice of Splitsville, are supposedly at this retreat to figure out if their love is worth saving. Instead of, you know, quiet introspection and honest communication, they’re hitting the dance floor. And as anyone who’s ever witnessed a “girls’ night out” gone wrong can attest, adding alcohol to a volatile mix rarely ends well.
This week’s central conflict revolves around Natalie and Josh. Remember them? Of course, you do. It seems Josh has been engaging in some extracurricular texting with a certain Sophie, and let’s just say Natalie doesn’t take the news lying down. We’ve seen glimpses of Natalie’s fiery temper before, so one can only imagine the fireworks that erupt when she confronts Josh. Consider this your official warning: collateral damage is likely.
If the synopsis is anything to go by, this episode features the usual cocktail of explosive group therapy, awkward couples’ exercises, and enough accusations to fill a season of Maury. Trust issues? Check. Intimacy problems? Double-check. Jealousy and anger bubbling just below the surface? You bet. It’s the 90 Day formula, refined and concentrated for maximum emotional carnage.
By the end of this retreat, each couple will have to decide whether to stick it out or call it quits. But honestly, after witnessing the trainwreck that unfolds at the club, some of these folks might be better off booking separate flights home. Will anyone make it out of this season with their relationship intact? I wouldn’t bet on it.
90 Day: The Last Resort airs Mondays at 8:00 PM on TLC.
