Becca and Austin are back from the couples retreat, but they still have a long way to go.
In an exclusive clip from Wednesday's Married at First Sight, Becca and Austin cuddle up on the couch for a conversation. At first, it appears things are going in the right direction, but Becca shares that there's a big part of their relationship that Austin has to work on.
"Friday, our one night here was definitely disappointing for me," Becca says. "I think I just heard you talk a lot about intimacy and working on intimacy and getting closer. It started off on a really..."
"Poor note," Austin says as he finishes Becca's thought.
Taking accountability, Austin apologizes.
"It was me. For that I'm sorry. That wasn't the mindset I was in that night."
Austin comforts Becca as she becomes visibly more emotional. Through tears, she lays out the timeline of the issue, and how it has ultimately made her feel.
"It's not just couples retreat but it's like leading up to couples retreat," she says as she cries. "I just like keep waiting, and then there was like this build up to this weekend, where you were like, 'I'm really excited for couples retreat.'
She tearfully adds, "And then...I just like keep waiting. It doesn't feel good to have to like beg to be wanted."
This season has seen Austin and Becca try to balance their instant chemistry with their opposing religious beliefs and stances on intimacy. Together, the pair has done the work and (tried) to have the tough conversations to build their trust and intimacy with each other.
