‘Love is Blind’: Jarrette Macks on Mallory — LIB2 Season 2 Episode 4 Recap

Love is Blind finally introduces Jarrette Jones to Mallory Zapata — the one that got away — on Season 2 Episode 4. Meet the Other Couples brings more action in Mexico. And the meet-ups provoke drama on the Netflix matchmaking show. Read the recap.

Mallory & Salvador Lukewarm — Jarrette Jones Thrills Iyanaa McNeely on LIB2

On LIB2, we start with Mallory Zapata drinking champagne with Salvador Perez. She was a little worried about the lack of physical vibes. Now, Mallory says she was in her head and tells him she’s attracted. Mallory says she’s awkward and he says he gets that.

Cam talking, Sal says he noticed their first kiss was off. He tells Mallory Zapata that it’s a safe space with him. She says he’s so handsome. They laugh together and there seem to be some warmer feelings growing.

Iyanna McNelly and Jarrette Jones lie in bed talking. She says Jarrette being so tall freaked her out at first. He’s 11 inches taller than her. She cam-talks and says she usually doesn’t date that tall. He gets out of bed and says he got her something.

Then, he hands over a Polaroid camera and she loses her sh*t. Netflix Twitter echoed the sentiment. On Love is Blind 2, she keeps on shrieking. He tells her the first pack of film is for raunchy photos.

And Iyanna says she’s there for that. She starts snapping pics. Later, they get into the hot tub. They make out and hug. She says she wants to wait until they’re married to have full-on sex. But she says she’s attracted to Jarrette.

Shake Chatterjee Backpedals Furiously with Deepti on Love is Blind Season 2 Episode 4

Deepti Vempati says being here with him is a bonding experience. She’s nervous about being in a bikini in front of Shake Chatterjee. She comes out and he says “yes, yes”. They get into the hot tub and make out. They’re getting very physical.

He asks if she wants to hump. Then, Shake tells her she’s tiny. And she says their babies will be cute and smart. Deeps says they should say f*k it and just get married now. Later, cam talking, he says he’s apprehensive and he’s not sure of their physical connection.

Shake’s freaking a little that Deepti is repeating back what he said to her when he proposed. The stuff about marriage and babies. And he’s really not feeling it. He gets this far-away look when she’s hanging onto him and can’t see his face.
