Love Island USA season 5 kicked off with a killer premiere, but its second episode was even crazier. Sarah Hyland returned as host, welcoming a new group of islanders into a villa in Fiji, over 5,000 miles away from last season’s Santa Monica villa. Some couples hit it off right off the bat, like Kay Kay and Keenan.
Unfortunately, a few islanders are having a tough time connecting, and the lack of compatibility between Anna and Bergie nearly sent the male islander home. Luckily, he was given a second chance in a shocking twist ending to the Love Island USA season 5 premiere. The second episode of the new season brought even more good news for those struggling in their couple.

Love Island USA Season 5 Episode 2 Recap
On Love Island USA season 5 episode 2, Bergie made his grand re-entrance alongside two new bombshells. After spending a night in the hideaway sandwiched between the two, Bergie reemerged among his fellow islanders, and they were ecstatic to see him. Since his night in the hideaway, his confidence has skyrocketed, and even Anna’s noticed.
Meanwhile, Leonardo is already the most sought-after islander, with Kassy and Anna both going after him, as well as new bombshell Carmen. Though, Kassy wasn’t happy to see him running off on a date with someone else. Jasmine’s another unhappy islander as, despite her lack of chemistry with Victor, she felt nervous about his date with new bombshell Hannah.
When the islanders returned from their dates, they had nothing but positive things to say about the bombshells, and their partners were not happy about their enthusiasm. Unfortunately for Kassy, Leonardo doesn’t understand her jealousy and thinks it’s way too early for her to feel so passionately about him.
A surprising twist came when Marco, who initially seemed very into Destiny, told her he wanted to get to know other islanders. This didn’t go over well with her, and it ended with Marco screaming into his bean bag chair. He tried to patch things up later, but Destiny isn’t the forgiving type and decided not to bury the hatchet.
The episode ended on a cliffhanger with the new bombshells given a tough decision to make. They each have to steal a guy from a female islander, but they get to decide whether or not they’re going to tell the women or keep it to themselves.
