Love Island SPOILER: Girls turn on Dejon and brand him 'nasty' as they demand answers after dramatic kissing challenge
Dejon Noel Williams, 26, is one half of the villa's only exclusive couple alongside Megan Moore - and he seems keen to make a point during the upcoming episode.
As the kissing challenge kicks off, most boys enthusiastically deliver their scores and feedback.
However Dejon's feedback dampens the mood: 'That kiss was two words… no good. Zero out of ten.' Toni questions his involvement: 'Are you not participating in today's game?'
Later, at the Firepit, Yasmin, Toni and Shakira discuss Dejon's approach to the challenge.
Yasmin states: 'We all saw what happened in the challenge today with Dejon. In a lot of these scenarios he goes on the attack straight away. His comments were just rude and he didn't need to be that nasty. He's obviously trying to play things safe because he's exclusive with Meg… I'm going to speak to him.'
Elsewhere, Emma discusses the same issue with Cach, saying of Dejon: 'Why does he behave like that? I just don't get it, he's such bad vibes all round.'
Earlier in the day Emma gets a text, reading: 'Islanders, pucker up and prepare to bring the passion.
'It's time to find out who's the ultimate snogger in today's kissing competition #LipsDontLie #SnogLikeYouMeanit.'
The girls proceed to kiss the boys who are blindfolded, and wearing headphones with music playing.
Each kiss is rated out of ten, with the highest score determining the winner. Between rounds, the music pauses so the boys can hear each other's scores and feedback.
Toni hosts the game, asking the group 'Who's ready to get their snog on?' and keeps track of scores on a blackboard.
Yasmin begins, slowly kissing each excited boy in the lineup.
But some boys enjoy the game a little too much for their partners' comfort, with Yasmin noticing Jamie's wandering hands, exclaiming: 'What the f*** am I watching?'
In the first look clip, Dejon is seen criticising multiple kisses, referring to them as 'no good' and even saying he didn't think it could get worse

After the competition, Toni announces the results and not everyone is happy. Particularly Helena.
Elsewhere in the episode, Shakira and Toni check in following Harrison's dramatic departure from the Villa.
Shakira reflects on Toni's time spent with him and shares: 'It's a shame, if Harrison was around he probably halted other connections. When you were at Casa, you did have something with Cach.'
She adds: 'I know he still likes you… Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. He's still here, he's still caught up on you and there's still a spark there.'
Hopeful, Toni responds: 'I know he forgives me and he understands why I made the decision I did.'
Elsewhere, Cach catches up with the boys at the Firepit who ask him where his head is at.
'Curveball innit,' he replies. 'The conversation with Toni threw the plan of action.'
Ty asks if there's a chance of reigniting their connection and Cach pauses, before covering his face. As the boys take that as confirmation, Conor claps his hands in excitement.
'He's flying, my boy!' says Ty.
In a not-so-shocking turn of events, Harry also decides to pull Shakira for a chat following the Couple of Sorts game, and the comment he made suggesting she was still interested in him.
He starts: 'I'm not trying to come between anything you're doing. I think if you did like me, you'd go after it… you're a smart girl and you'd do what you want.'
'I think the world of you,' he continues. 'I just wanted to apologise to you and I am sorry.'
She replies: 'What was said in the kitchen was so misconstrued… For you guys to bring it up in a challenge is stupid and I don't know why you did it to be honest.
'I thought it was uncalled for but I appreciate your apology.'
Curious, Harry poses a question: 'Do you think it would have been a better experience for you if we were to stay together?'

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez jet back to Europe just weeks after tying the knot in extravagant wedding
Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sanchez were spotted back in Europe after jetting around the world following their wedding. Just weeks after tying the knot in Venice, the billionaire Amazon founder, 61, and his now-wife were pictured touching down in the South of France again. The pair traveled to France at least twice this year as there were public sightings of the couple in Cannes following her bachelorette party in Paris back in May. Bezos also attended the amfAR Gala in Cap d'Antibes during that trip. This month, after celebrating their nuptials with a number of A-list Hollywood stars, they headed to Paris Fashion Week, where the former journalist, 55, attended the Balenciaga Haute Couture show. The pair were pictured arriving, making the dock their personal runway as they strutted towards the extravagant Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cap d'Antibes. Sanchez put on a glamorous display as she modeled a colorful, silk dress with mixed patterns, neon colors and a sexy, low back design. She paired the eye-catching dress with baby blue sandal heels and a white and blue mini purse from Dior as she joined her husband for their European excursion. The pair were spotted holding hands as they exited their luxurious yacht. This comes after the famous couple said 'I do' in the romantic city of Venice back in June. Their $50 million wedding had a star-studded guest list with many A-listers such as Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio in attendance. Now Sanchez wears a $5 million diamond wedding ring that has fans as well as jewelers in an uproar.

Smart, sharp and nonstop dance: how Twyla Tharp is bossing the Venice Dance Biennale in her 80s
'Do you know how much I could deadlift in my 50s? Guess!' Twyla Tharp implored Wayne McGregor, in a post-show interview at the Venice Dance Biennale. McGregor, the festival's artistic director, didn't dare venture a figure. 'Two-hundred and twenty-seven pounds!' she told us all, delightedly. Never underestimate Twyla. The slight, white-haired 84-year-old is as sharp as ever, and a force in the dance world. She's been choreographing for 60 years, for ballet companies and Broadway, dance both experimental and accessible, art and pop. And she is honoured this year with the biennale's Golden Lion for lifetime achievement. Tharp is a smart, no-nonsense woman with a dry sense of humour, and her work is much the same. Only two pieces from her vast repertoire are staged in Venice this year, but one especially, Diabelli (from 1998), set to Beethoven's 33 Diabelli Variations, has the same precise, self-certain manner as the woman herself. It takes one idea – the rigorous exploration of music and form – and drills into it determinedly. The dance is non-stop, a showcase for the tremendous dancers of her company, all quite different bodies but brilliant technicians, rooted in classicism with Tharp's easy synthesis of jazz, contemporary and vernacular dance forms. It is absolutely chock-full of steps. That might seem obvious, but a lot of contemporary dance now hinges on vibe, mood and repetitive riffs, whereas Tharp is just step after step, finely and deliberately wrought phrases in constant motion with absolute clarity. With its fairly unwavering tone, from the audience there's perhaps not as much light and shade as Tharp herself sees – but she has no time for dawdling (there's a similarity with McGregor's own work here: the constant fast-paced flying mind, expecting you to keep up). The second piece is the European premiere of Slacktide, set to Philip Glass. It's new, but interestingly, uses material from Tharp's back catalogue, reversioned. Compared with Diabelli, the look is certainly more 'now', diffused light, dancers in black shorts and vests, and rather than the front-facing performance mode of the earlier work, the dancers are on their own trajectories, moving between solos and groups. It has a greater sense of freedom, dynamic and edge, but the same very serious conversation with choreography. The winner of the Silver Lion, for an outstanding upcoming choreographer, was the Brazilian Carolina Bianchi. Bianchi has the same absolute commitment to her art as Tharp, but is a completely different proposition. She's best known for the first part of her Cadela Força trilogy, The Bride and the Goodnight Cinderella, in which Bianchi takes a date rape drug live on stage and then attempts to continue the show while the audience watch its effects take over, made in response to her own experience of sexual assault. The second chapter of the trilogy, The Brotherhood, gets its Italian premiere in Venice and it goes deeper (very much deeper, at almost four hours in length) into Bianchi's own attempts to process what happened to her: the injustice, the omnipresent patriarchy, the bewilderment over what gives men seeming licence to abuse women, from the rape of Lucretia to Gisèle Pelicot. She does this through film, performance, a faux interview with a famous theatre director, set-pieces with the male performers from company Cara de Cavalo, and addressing the audience directly. She considers hazing initiations, the myth of the troubled genius in art, the politics of the rehearsal room, the subtle undermining of women in professional life. There's so much here, a bit of editing wouldn't go amiss (although it doesn't feel like 220 minutes) but then this is the ever-circling mind after trauma, always returning to the wound, never finding the answer. Fearless Bianchi is sometimes provocatively shocking, she is also constantly questioning herself, getting in her criticisms before anyone else can. Her subjects are theatre, art, violence and anger. And the real question may be, why aren't we all angrier, all the time, about how commonplace this abuse is? Bianchi introduces herself on stage as predominantly a writer, and this is a text-based show within the realm of performance art, an interesting choice for a dance prize. But the body is absolutely at the centre of her work. Her central question, as she puts it, is what do we do with this body? How to live in a body that survives rape? Elsewhere at the biennale, the opening show comes from Australia's Chunky Move, a company established in 1995, now led by Antony Hamilton, who has choreographed U>N>I>T>E>D. The stage is dominated by a large mechanical contraption, a piece of rigging that holds what looks like a giant insect with flashing and glowing lights. The dancers have mechanical limbs too, multijointed insect-y legs attached to them, turning them into human-machine hybrid hexapods. It immediately brought to mind a piece McGregor made for his company in 2002, Nemesis, where the dancers wore mechanical limbs extending their arms. In fact the whole look is very millennium-bug-throwback, like a guerrilla army of hackers who've jumped the fence at Glastonbury, in baggy parachute pants with all sorts of straps and layers and clashing patterns and camo and reflective neon. It's a crusty-cyberpunk look – if you ever went near Brighton in the 1990s, you'd recognise it. Except that in the 90s we barely had mobile phones or email addresses and this kind of tech felt like pure sci-fi, whereas now, the idea of humans getting tech implants or machines becoming sentient is basically the world we live in. So that's unnerving. But what does Hamilton have to say about it? Not so much. The thing about all the cumbersome props is that they extend the body's possibilities, but also reduce their ability to move. There's a vague sense of struggle between embracing or fighting the machines but, just like in the real world, having the technology is one thing, deciding what to use it for, or what you want to say with it, is entirely another. It's neither stirringly hopeful nor apocalyptic enough to be terrifying. Twyla would have those mechanical critters for breakfast. The Venice Dance Biennale continues until 2 August
