Young-sook, shocked by Young-ho's choice of Hyun-sook over her, expressed her frustration to the other female contestants. She vented, "Would I want my top choice to eat a solitary meal? I wouldn't have done that," showing her anger. Soon-ja approached Young-soo, probing his feelings by saying, "Your indecision makes me uncertain too." Young-soo, still focused on his top choice, Young-ja, replied, "You should be uncertain because of my indecision."
During the daytime date, all the female contestants paid for their meals, showcasing their independence. In the evening, Young-sook chose Young-ho, and Jung-sook picked Young-chul. Soon-ja and Ok-soon both selected Young-soo, reigniting their rivalry, while Young-ja chose Young-sik, and Hyun-sook opted for Sang-chul. Kwang-soo, unfortunately, was left without a choice and had to dine alone.
Sang-chul, having moved on from Hyun-sook, couldn't even make eye contact during their late-night snack date. He candidly expressed his interest in getting to know Young-sook and Soon-ja better. Hyun-sook acknowledged this with a nod, ending their date in tense silence.
Young-sook, harboring resentment towards Young-ho, confronted him from the start. Young-ho defended his actions, saying, "I didn't think it was something to apologize for. Given the nature of 'I Am SOLO,' I saw it as an opportunity," but admitted, "I did feel strangely sorry." Young-sook retorted, "How would you feel if the roles were reversed? Do you often do things you regret in relationships?"
Young-ho attempted to reassure Young-sook by stating, "You're still my top choice." However, Young-sook was displeased, asking, "Did you really have to add 'still'?" Young-ho explained, "My feelings can change. If things deepen, I'll make a final choice, and if you choose someone else, I'll step back." Disappointed, Young-sook remarked, "There's a lack of consideration for me. Can we talk about the future in this situation?"
After the date, Jung-sook expressed satisfaction, saying, "We share similar values and perspectives," while Young-chul admitted, "I feel comfortable with her." The preview for the next episode teased a showdown between Soon-ja and Ok-soon over Young-soo, with Young-soo confessing his feelings to Young-ja and Soon-ja giving him a cold shoulder, hinting at more drama to come.
