We’re all social distancing, but thanks to the magic of television, we can kick back and watch as our favourite MAFS couples are still able to sit within 2 metres of each other.
Tonight saw the juicy reunion episode we’ve all been waiting for, and hoo boy, this is exactly the drama I needed at 7pm on a Sunday night when I haven’t seen another human being in over a week.
I’m not exactly sure why they had a reunion because NONE of these people were actually friends, but alas, the couples who yeeted themselves out of this shitstorm are back with a vengeance.
And once again, nobody remembers who the fuck Chris and Vanessa are.
Oi, who’s this Chris guy in the yellow shirt? 😂#MAFS #MAFSAU #mafsaunz pic.twitter.com/eL7S7SwuUX

Anyone at all?
Chris (vanessa’s husband) had even lower profile than Vanessa.
They shoukdnt have got an invite to reunion, they were more like extras than supporting cast.#mafs #mafsau

Oh, that’s right. Michael remembers him, and appears to be shitting his pants about it.

Thankfully, his ex-wife Vanessa seems to have been given a little ammo to spice up her reunion in the show.
Producer, airdropping the footage to Vanessa: “use this, and everyone will remember your name. Or at least know it” #mafs

This is the most screen time Vanessa has ever gotten #MAFS #MAFSAU

Despite having next to no screen time, Vanessa has made a surprising resurgence at the end of the season for a Steven Bradbury-style victory.
Ahhhh Vanessa. She was the quiet one who knew everything #MAFS pic.twitter.com/4HfVL2cGyu

Honestly, these two were the least interesting couple in the whole show but now they’re the drama king and queen of the season. GIVE ME THE DRAMA. I CRAVE IT.
Chris walks in, everyone starts chanting “here we go, here we go, here we go” #mafs

We’ve underestimated this couple. Channel 9 had us believing these two were just a bland couple in the background of the show, but it turns out they hold ALL of the power.
They saved up all of Chris and Vanessas air time for this moment, people may remember you after this, but most likely not#MAFSAU #MAFS pic.twitter.com/oQOfSWaOLE

But in a truly anti-climatic turn of events, Vanessa actually LIED about the footage in an attempt to get Michael to tell the truth. There was no footage and we’re still left with a slight hope that maybe Michael isn’t a total piece of shit.
Unfortunately, the video doesn’t exist. But was this episode ever about the footage? Or was the real treasure the drama we gained along the way? Channel 9 has blessed us with some truly spicy drama when we needed it most.
