When Dwarves Attack
Married At First Sight couple Ryan Donnelly and Jacqui Burfoot’s Homestay Week continued on Tuesday night.
The couple sat down for an explosive meet-up with the groom’s friends Adam and Karla in southwest Sydney that ended with Jacqui storming out in tears.
The pair confronted the bride, 29, about her Honesty Letter from the week before, in which she questioned Ryan’s manhood and financial stability.
As the four of them sat down, with Jacqui’s friend Jet there for support, Karla almost immediately brought up the offending letter in a tense confrontation.
Despite the high-octane drama playing out, viewers couldn’t help but be distracted by the vibrant green drink in Karla’s hand, a premix Midori Illusion cocktail.
‘No way Ryan’s friend is having one of these bad boys at a southwest Sydney pub on a random Wednesday at 11am,’ one viewer posted to X.

In a Reddit thread titled ‘Ryan’s friends are major weirdos’ MAFS viewers took to social media to live blog their reactions to the episode.
While there were a few posts about the content of the heated conversation, most viewers hopped onto the thread to curiously ask whether Karla had been drinking a glass of ‘Mountain Dew’.
‘Can anyone explain what the hell is that drink she’s having?’ another viewer posted.
‘Looks like a Midori schooner!’ another viewer chimed in, with others adding their own humorous digs at the choice.
‘Nuclear waste’ said another.
‘The best bits were the ever-changing drink levels in the same conversation,’ another viewer pointed out as they spied yet another MAFS editing fail.
‘One second it is full, then empty, then half full.’
‘God I hope that’s an editing illusion,’ a Sydney bartender joked.
MAFS viewers flocked to Reddit and X not to discuss the explosive confrontation between Jaqui and Ryan’s friends, but to mock a grown woman drinking a Midori
‘I haven’t made one of those as a bartender since about 2002,’ they continued.
‘I would be so excited for the throwback if someone asked for a Midori mix of some kind.’
The Midori Illusion cocktail is a blend of the melon liqueur, vodka, and pineapple.
Married At First Sight continues Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel Nine
