Ex On The Beach Betrayal: Should Arisce Forgive Mike For Secretly Kissing David?

If the heart wants what the heart wants, Mike of Ex on the Beach might benefit from elective consultation with a cardiologist.


While in tonight's episode, the house’s resident Energizer Bunny got his cover blown once his kiss with David was outed, something he’d kept secret from his ex Arisce. So right after weeks of Mike insisting he wants Arisce back, will the Shack of Secrets revelations change things, and is it worth Arisce’s time to wait and find out?


Let's rewind: Immediately following the introduction of new Singles Kyra and Bryce to the residence, the bungalow started to evolve into a dangerous game of topsy-turvy. On one hand, Derynn finally seemed to be warming up to her Ex Ricky, who was decided to prepare things right, while David -- initially dead-set on fixing things with his Ex Dani -- suddenly determined he wanted to pursue Kyra as an alternative, which amounted to a series of teary battles.


Still, the real fireworks didn’t take flight up until Arisce and Mike were summoned to the Shack of Secrets for a drive-in movie. And the feature presentation? A mix of Mike saying he was bored with Arisce, footage in which he told David he didn’t mean it if he mentioned he loved Arisce and, as a bonus shot, video of Mike kissing David, an act which he’d withheld from Arisce.


Mike attempted to get ahead of Arisce’s anger, claiming he only kissed David to demonstrate the idea that an open relationship was a bad idea, however the logic was desperate nonsense to the rest of the show’s cast, who watched the trainwreck from afar.


“So let me perceive this logic. Mike’s like, 'I’m cheating on to display to you that I’m not cheating on you,'” Kyra sarcastically observed.


And, try as he may to right his wrongs, Mike could feel Arisce start to suddenly slip through his fingers.


“This romantic comedy’s becoming a horror film as the killer’s sitting right next to me,” he said.


Arisce, who’d only just warmed up to the idea of rekindling things with Mike, was knocked onto her heels and enlisted Da’Vonne to help separate her bed from Mike’s.


“How dare you, in front of my mom and your mom!” Arisce mentioned, half-joking and half-devastated. “Bastard.”


And even immediately after a night to sleep on her hurt, Arisce determined Mike’s connection to David was also strong to be didn't think about or forgiven. Arisce couldn’t shake the fact that once she asked Mike if he wanted to sleep with David, he couldn’t give her a straight “no” and alternatively danced around the answer.


“So whichever I was working on, I’m gonna pull back,” Arisce mentioned. “I don’t understand what his intentions with me are anymore.”


Nevertheless can Arisce really pull back, and, immediately after so much progress with Mike, should she? Share your thoughts, and visualize if the two work things out on the second Ex on the Beach!
