After three weeks of total lethargy, where connections were as rare as a sentence without anglicism (read: non-existent), the singles ofDouble occupancy: Mexico were destined to no longer “be in the mix », a question of using the very precise vocabulary of the coach of the Montreal Canadiens, Martin St-Louis.
Clearly, like a wall of Carib beer bottles in a Must lounge, this season of OD on the Riviera Maya is “legitimate” boring and real estate broker Catherine F., 27, “low key” summed up the state spirit of an entire nation in one striking sentence: “there is too much bromance, not enough romance”. Roma, ro-ma-ma, it sounds like a Lady Gaga song remixed with K-Maro.
Even the entrepreneur Aleksa, a wise 27-year-old, started talking like a hockey player, using her own uniform analogy. “When you have two t-shirts that look really good on you, basically, you can’t wear two t-shirts,” he declaimed, overcome by a flash of lucidity, to explain his torment between the representative in fashion Kristina, 23, and pharmacist Fanny, 25.
Aleksa, who seemed “genuine in her feelings”, finally chose redhead Kristina’s sweater and sent blonde Fanny – and her newfound feminine energy – to the locker room. “Aleksa likes my class and my elegance,” rejoiced Kristina, who speaks even faster than an accelerated sketch by François Pérusse. To which his BFF Catherine L., 24, replied: “it’s true, you’re a bit atopic”. So close, Cath, a letter from the right word, but so far at the same time.
Atopic dermatitis, a skin infection with oozing and scabs, is even less annoying than Aleksa’s atypical nail fungus who, fortunately, was able to talk to her pharmacist about it (that’s Fanny) .
The big one flush of Fanny by Aleksa could better guide the bartender Mamadou, 23, who deplored that Fanny “is not decisive in her decisions”. Like Mamadou, Michaël, 27, feels mixed up like a pack of cards. “Me, I’m a little confused in my head like, yeah, I don’t know,” Michaël philosophized, putting on another pearl of wisdom on his necklace which will measure 12 meters by the end of November.
Announced on Sunday evening, the end of mixed houses in OD risks increasing the tension between the competitors, who currently live in shared accommodation in the proverbial “friendzone”, this romantic purgatory where even a pot of Bubbles at night would not provoke a little beak dry.
Reality TV Double occupancycreated more than 20 years ago, works when it is gendered. Girls on one side, guys on the other. Give them time to get bored before the next one partyto speculate on the top 3 of each and to paranoid each on their own.

The mixed formula takes away all the mystery and sexy aspect of the beginnings of a relationship. Who wants to wake up in the same room as their flirt who farted all night? A potential partner’s childish habits or toilet noises don’t need to be communicated on the first date, in front of six other roommates, no less.
Back at our friends, after a few sponsored drinks, they focused on the strategic aspect ofDouble occupancye. “It’s a four-dimensional chess game,” observed Félix, 29, certainly a fan of The Twilight Zone.
And this part is not played on two tables, as the popular expression would have it, but on “two boxes”, according to the make-up artist Melek, 22 years old, and on “two boards”, according to the model Maude, 24 years old.
When the beekeeping activity, bzzz, bzzz, was attributed to Maude and Mamadou, Catherine L. asked herself: what is acupuncture? Hint: Both activities sting, but at different pain levels.
Still on the subject of visiting the hives, Mamadou clarified on camera that these were local Mayan bees. Phew! Imagine if “it had been”, says Maude, foreign Inca bees.
Another fun activity gave the inhabitants of the two villas a hard time (hanging): the good old zip line, which Bilal renamed the “tirolienne”. The road to access this “irolian tire” greatly impressed Michaël, who used all the linguistic crutches at his disposal to describe it. “It was a little jungle-style path to get to the natural swimming pool,” commented Michaël, who can consider himself lucky. The water of the cenote was not “next level” cold like the bye fret that Catherine L. gave to Raphaël, 27 years old, the one who plays on two boards, boards or boxes.
During the test of truth or consequence, this same Raphaël, creator of travel content, looked at Melek in a funny way. Would he have something to say to her? According to Melek, who had just had his ear licked by Félix, Raphaël “had persistent glances with [elle] “.
An insistent look, a persistent look, at this point, as long as it is not a “perspiring” look, there is no reason to sweat for nothing.
