Wow.

8:26 PM PT (TV) A wild family bombshell just dropped on the feeds. In the lounge, Cherry and Dylan accidentally discovered they might be related, and the cameras caught every second of the meltdown. Cherry casually mentioned her grandmother’s maiden name while talking about old photos. Dylan immediately stopped moving, eyes locked on her like he’d been hit with a taser. Cherry asked what was wrong, and Dylan said—very slowly— “Cherry… my family’s maiden name is Loayl too.” Cherry stared at him for a full five seconds before whispering, “Are you saying we’re… family?” Dylan nodded, visibly shaken: “Cousins. We might actually be cousins.” Cherry slapped both hands over her mouth, gasping so dramatically Izzy ran in thinking someone fainted. The two sat there in shock, piecing together matching relatives and overlapping family stories while the room spiraled into whispers. The pair finally hugged, promising to “represent the Loayl bloodline with honor,” though both admitted they now have no idea how this twist will affect the game. -ATC
