After seething for a full day, Bianca wasn't about to finish her chat anytime soon. Sensing Corey was getting lectured, the boys called out from where they were gathered in the spa. “Hang on,” Corey called back – focused on finishing the conversation. “They’re just doing that ‘cause they don’t want you to talk to me,” complained Bianca. “They don’t even know you’re talking to me,” rebuffed Corey.
Bianca tried to explain that she could help people see a different side of Corey. “I just want everyone in Australia to know you're not that kid,” she began. “I’m not gonna lie, I’ve had massive parties - but I don’t do any of that anymore. I am trying to represent through the media that you don’t need to do that.”
“One person will never be able to do that, that’s the thing,” said Corey. Bianca earnestly told him she believed differently. Corey kept eye contact as he told Bianca he disagreed with her perception of him. “I am one of those people who wants to settle down…” he started. “I know you’re probably thinking, 'What’s up this chick’s butt…'” interrupted Bianca. “But fun’s been taken to a whole new level [in our generation] and it’s just screwed up people's lives.” She explained she wanted a few people to see her and realise they should stop and change their lives. “Then at least I know I’ve done something.”
Corey asked if she had managed to have an effect on any of her friends. Bianca admitted she hadn’t really. He asked if she would continue to feel this way as she got older. Bianca agreed she would, and explained she wanted to be a humanitarian.
Corey shared that he believed doing drugs at a young age ‘stuffed people up’. “Your brain doesn’t even finish developing until you’re 18,” he told Bianca. She suggested that their conversation might be able to change people's minds. “You can't tell them [what to do] – no one listens,” said Corey.
“You know how sad that is?” lamented Bianca. “What we say doesn’t make a difference.” She said she believed the general public would just laugh at her sentiments. “That really affects me. I think, if you actually had a brain, you would listen to this conversation.”
“Sometimes people do just want to have fun,” offered Corey. “What do you want me to say?”
Bianca nodded. “What you’re saying now is great. … I just don’t want to be classified with our generation anymore.” Corey tried to console her. “If you’re not the letdown, you shouldn’t worry. You should just worry about yourself,” he said and went on to explain he believed “bad kids” were very much the minority.
“I know everyone watching this will be like, ‘You’re a tosser’, and it should be the other way round,” complained Bianca. “You’ve got your own opinion,” said Corey, and explained he didn’t feel he could stand on a pedestal and preach to the youth of Australia because he wasn’t perfect himself.
“Do you think I’m weird?” asked Bianca, a little nervously. “No, why?” asked Corey. “People have their own opinions.” He explained that Bianca was free to choose and be whoever she wanted. “How can you change people?” he questioned. “It’s their choice and their decision.”
The pair began to discuss underage drinking and why it occurs. Bianca admitted she struggled to understand it. “Some people can be themselves without alcohol and some people can’t,” suggested Corey. “[It’s not just our generation] - the older generation do it as well.” He tried to explain to Bianca that it wasn’t just their generation that wrestled with drugs and alcohol – that their parents’ generation had had their own set of challenges too.
“I just wanted to let you know [how I felt] so I wasn’t standing around talking behind [your back],” said Bianca in response. “I don’t want you not knowing what I am trying to represent. Don’t think I am trying to be a cow. I want to get to know you.
“And that is the end of my lecture,” she said. “I think the boys are gonna want a debrief.”
“About?” queried Corey. But Saxon was already in the room to wrap things up. “You’re not giving it to him are you?” he asked Bianca. “No, we just had a chat,” said Corey. He and Saxon headed outside. Michael and the rest of the boys asked him what they had been arguing about.
“We weren’t arguing,” clarified Corey. “It was just how… you know what she represents. She said I set her back because she represents something different.”
“She said you set her back?” asked Nobbi in disbelief. “What does she want? Is she on a quest?” said Rory. The boys continued to rant in disbelief, while Corey remained quiet. They joked that it should also be their mission to change everyone into being just like them. “She’s blowing it so much out of proportion mate,” said Saxon. “A stranger can’t tell me to change my ways,” agreed Michael.
Corey soon left the conversation, while the boys shook their heads in stunned disbelief. Bianca, meanwhile, made her way back to see BB to give him a debrief.
A short time later, the boys picked up the conversation again. Corey remained tight lipped, but Saxon in particular had taken offence to Bianca’s tirade. “How can you sit there and judge people and say what’s wrong and what’s right?” he said about the Italian Princess.
But as the HMs tucked in for the evening, Saxon nestled up next to Bianca in bed. The pair talked about their difference of opinion when it came to Corey. Saxon was frustrated Bianca wasn’t willing to give him a go. He gently trailed his fingers up and down a flustered Bianca’s arm, as she complained she just couldn’t get to grips with Corey.
The chat turned heated, and Bianca stormed outside. She sat alone on the couch for a few moments, before rejoining Saxon in bed. The duo whispered to each other, with Saxon encouraging her to come to him during the day to chat. Bianca agreed as Saxon again rubbed her arm. They made a pinky promise that Bianca would go to him whenever she needed help. Saxon sealed the promise with a reassuring kiss on her hand. "Let's give them something to talk about," he whispered.
As they settled into sleep, Bianca suddenly punched her fist into her hand and a fed up Saxon rolled away, turning his back to her.
Dixie got up from the bed and joined Michael, Corey and Nobbi outside. She reported Saxon and Bianca were fighting. Despite their touch of flirtation, the group agreed Saxon wouldn’t hesitate to challenge Bianca.
The general consensus was that Bianca was in the wrong – and her staunch opinions left a bitter taste in her fellow HMs mouths. So just how far is Bianca willing to go to try to prove her point? And how will Saxon hide his attraction to someone he clearly has differing opinions with?
