Love Overboard

Welcome to the Chakra- a luxurious super-yacht navigating the majestic waters of Malta, where 16 of the sexiest singles in America have arrived to enjoy a summer filled with champagne, caviar and romance. With Gabby Windey serving as host, it's not long before couples form and love is in the salty air. But just as it feels like things will be smooth sailing this summer, a shocking twist reveals that falling in love on this boat will take hard work- literally. As some connections grow, others are challenged as love and friendships are put to the test. One Shipmate is forced to make a fateful decision that rocks the Chakra and sends one unlucky lover overboard.

Love is in the air in the wake of the first dramatic Plank Ceremony, but choppy waters are in the forecast. The Chakra is flipped upside down when Gabby introduces the first challenge, resulting in new Topside couples, new Downside crew and one scary close-call. Happy Hour sees connections deepen and new love triangles form as the Downsiders seize their opportunity to make it to the Topside. Sofia puts a scheme in motion to change her fate by pulling a fast one on an unsuspecting Topsider. But the walls are thin on the Chakra, and word of Sofia's plan quickly spreads. The result is the most dramatic Plank yet.

The drama continues onboard the Chakra as Andrew makes his decision between Enna and Sofia, sending one woman overboard. Before the night is over, Tim makes another move on Gia, and Leela's mouth gets her into trouble yet again. Sade clings to her hopes of remaining on the Topside, but the second challenge threatens to upend her plans. A new Topside couple is established, while an old rivalry is renewed on the Downside. Happy Hour sees the arrival of the season's first two Shipwreckers who make quick first impressions on all of the Shipmates. A love triangle that's been taking shape since the first days onboard culminates in the most emotional Plank yet.

As the romance rises on the Chakra, so does the tension. Tim and Gia share a romantic first as a couple, but make a surprising secret pact. Keif and Delaney spark a new romance as Sade struggles watching her former fling moving on. David makes a shocking confession about his relationship with Lo that threatens to destroy one of the strongest couples onboard. A steamy challenge sees the arrival of two studly new Shipwreckers, leaving Bella hot, bothered and hopeful. An unexpected Topside takeover lands Delaney in a love triangle.

Just when it felt like it would be smooth sailing for the Shipmates, the Chakra runs into choppy waters. Resident Downsider Bella struggles to find a path to the Topside, as established couples deepen their connections. The arrival of two sexy Shipwreckers offers renewed hope for Jake and Andrew, while putting Lo on the defensive. Andrew faces an emergency on the Downside at the most inconvenient time, while one of the Shipwreckers makes a bold move that threatens to turn the yacht upside down. David and Lo face the ultimate test of their relationship.

The Chakra will change forever as David returns from his scandalous date and is forced to make a decision in the most dramatic Plank Ceremony yet. While the Shipmates deal with the fallout from the Plank, rumors of what happened on David and Val's date begin to spread. A love triangle on the Downside takes a turn that may spell defeat for one desperate Shipmate. Gabby announces a surprise outing off the yacht that breathes new life onboard.

As the Shipmates arrive on shore for their much-anticipated beach outing, they soon realize that this party will be anything but fun in the sun. David's worst nightmare comes true as he's forced to come clean and answer for his behavior. Back on the Chakra, an innocent game of spin the bottle quickly backfires, revealing truths about the Shipmates that threaten to break up the strongest couples. Gabby makes a game-changing announcement which can spell going overboard for multiple Shipmates.

As the voyage for love nears its destination, Gabby's announcement sends waves through the Chakra, as the couples fight for one of the five spots onboard. After pleading their cases, the Shipmates meet their fates at the biggest Plank Ceremony yet. The remaining couples share romantic dates on shore. While some connections grow, others are challenged when surprise visitors from back home arrive in Malta to grill the Shipmates.

It's been a summer of love and planks the Shipmates will never forget, but all good things must come to an end. The remaining couples return to the Chakra following overnight dates that brought them closer together, but also raised new questions. In the final challenge, the Shipmates go head-to-head in a battle of secrets and lies as they desperately try to avoid the plank. Familiar faces return to hear the couples plead their cases and vote for a winner, but not before getting their own last shots in. In a dramatic final Plank Ceremony, the first ever winners of Love Overboard are crowned.
