Olivia Attwood takes charge in this explosive reality show, sending the girlfriends of eight so-called ‘bad boyfriends’ undercover to spy on them during a night out. In this first episode, these men, ranging from serial cheaters to commitment-phobes, find themselves in for a surprise when Attwood reveals the true nature of their trip.

The premise lures these ‘bad boyfriends’ to a Greek island, where they believe they will be filming a series celebrating hedonism and bromance. However, their plans for wild partying are abruptly halted by Attwood, who discloses the real purpose of the show: to transform them into better boyfriends. This revelation is soon followed by the dramatic arrival of their long-suffering girlfriends, creating a chaotic scene.
