Off to a flying start.
Wisconsin: He looks way over 40 to me. I'd guess 50 at least. His timelines don't add up, either, with his marriage, military service and post divorce. Really, he was thinking about going to Syria to fight ISIS
Anyway, I can't figure out why Miss Indonesia 8th runner up wants to come here. My working theory is that as a 29 year old divorcee with a child, she has limited marriage prospects at home. Drama with the stepdaughter ensues.
Colt and Larissa, another one with lots of drama potential. I think she is expecting him to be a pushover, but I got a sense that he has a back bone. She does seem like a big time diva with unrealistic expectations of life in America (seems to be the most common thread among the foreigners). Mother-in-law/ daughter-in-law drama ensues. And Colt, please, take those costumes off the cats.
Miss Fernanda has her man trained. She has a free apartment, schooling, and makeover courtesy of her besotted BF. I though he would be the creepy controlling type, but she seems to be in the drivers seat here.
Ashley, another delusional woman who thinks she can import a boytoy and expect him to be a stepfather. This one really is a boy, only 20? He is good looking and has a fun personality, but this is marriage we are talking about, not a vacation fling.

Leida's ex and her child's father.

According to some people in the know, Leida isn't rich. Her family is middle class at best, which would explain the less than fabulous home. They say a lot of people in Indonesia have help in the home.
Apparently, even if you’re broke, there’s always someone more broke than you and is willing to work for next to nothing, because it’s better than actual nothing. Not that Leida’s family looks destitute or anything. However, they can bring in some extra hands, because the standard of living is cheap in Indonesia.

Observations:
Eric is cheap as hell. Okay, if you're going to buy a hoagie for four people make it look presentable w/plates, drinks, and some fries.
Ashley has the best dwelling out of this group. Everyone's home looks like an afterthought. Now, I don't have a Better Homes & Garden's home, but if my place was going to be on TV, I would spruce up the place.
Mr. Samoa speaks as if he is language disordered or slow or something. He seems way too simple, but I like him.
I can't wait to hear about Colt's sex drive. Apparently, he's a tiger in bed.
Fernanda's confrontation w/the fiancee's best friend turned out to be non-confrontational. I don't think the bff is out to get Fer's man. Personally, I think Fer's man should have left her alone, so she can stay w/her family. It was sad to see her miss her family and her young life to shack up w/some man who is done partying.

I agree about Eric, but I wonder about their storyline. I saw on another board that they were already married before filming began. If that's the case, then I have some other conspiracy theories. Maybe that apartment is his daughter's only? He is not as broke as being depicted, similar to David and Annie. I think her family's role is being overplayed as well. She is a 29 year old woman. Like her sister could "make" her go home?
Ashley does have the best house. Overall, I find them to be the least interesting couple. Their storyline seems to be all about the sex - he is nothing but a squirrely kid horndog, and she is obsessed with the D. She doesn't have much personality at all.
SAMwa is another kind of boring one. I think they are playing up his fish out of water storyline. Didn't she say that he was the activities director at a resort when she met him? If so, he certainly would have seen supermarkets and other modern amenities.
Jonathan and Fernanda have potential for entertainment. So far I love her. Great snarky comments about Jonathan's friends, and spot on mimic of the accents. I agree, she could do better than Jon.
Colt and Larissa are my fav's so far. The tacky house, the cats, the slot machine in the living room, overclingy mother, no filter Larissa, and Pillsbury doughboy Colt. As for Colt's bedroom prowess, I guess you really can't judge a book by its cover.

I saw that too, but the pic the site showed were also shown on the show. So, I doubt they were already married.
Oh, I think they can make her go home, if they control the purse strings.
I agree.
He would have seen modern amenities, but he wouldn't be using them. He would be the hired help, and from the video clip, he was hanging outside. Plus, there aren't any supermarkets on these types of islands. What you'll see is a metal or tin roof space with food like this.
Store
There are times, you will find a grocery store that might be the size of a drug store that looks like a dollar store with groceries. In other words, supermarkets aren't what islands have unless it's Hawaii or something. I spent some time on islands. For example, in Freemont, Bahamas, the only grocery store on the island was a beat up looking, smallish Piggy Wiggly. Now, don't get me wrong, they do have grocery stores, but they are on the small side, and they are few and far between.
I'm not surprised he's a tiger, because I don't imagine him getting it that much. So, he's going to want to partake as much as he can, when it's offered. It's that I just can't wait for the details.

OMFG. I had heard also that they are already married. I guess the people calling her the new Anfisa are right

Well, the show tapes in advance. They got married in June. This incident happened this month.

Okay. .. finally, they show Eric's trashy apartment, and it didn't disappoint. All of that money he used to show the Leida and her family America, he should have just used to upgrade to a better apartment. Rent in Baraboo is $800 for a 2 bedroom apartment. He should be able to swing that, especially since he doesn't seem to need his daughter to help pay for rent.
Fernanda really does have a hair trigger.
So Kalani quit her job, so she can spend time with Mr. Samoa? What kind of sense does that make?

I am calling fake on the apartment thing. No way a 40 year old sleeps on a single mattress on the floor and expects to share it. I think it is his daughter's apartment.
Kalani isn't the first to say that about quitting a job to spend more time with fiance. Didn't Jon do that in Before? Made about as much sense then as it does now.

Naw, Eric looks chopped up and spit out just like that apartment. It's his! Don't get fooled by the twin bed. Remember, he did share a sandwich with four people. LOL.
Yeah, I remembered someone else do that too.

Another thing, is Eric’s going to sit around in this mess with Leida and wait for Tasha to clean when she gets home? Leida must be running from the mob, or Alessandro’s dad is a psychopath, or something because I just don’t know. Maybe, Jonnie is right, the place is Tosha's apartment. Still, I wouldn't show my daughter's trashy place to America. I rather just rent an Air BNB like Kaloni.
By the way, Eric is showing me new levels of brokeness. Who knew there was a such thing as an air mattress.
