A recap of Five Guys a Week Season 1 Episode 9

On this week's episode of Five Guys a Week, 32-year-old fitness and pole instructor Sienna came on the show to find a 'true and lasting love.' The New Jersey native's last relationship was two years ago when her partner backed out because he was not ready to be in a real relationship.

On the show, her potential suitors were:

  • Eddie
  • Matt
  • Wayne
  • Rich
  • Lovinjy

While Eddie was shorter than the other contestants, he tried to impress Sienna by complimenting her nails and smile, but she did not believe it. She sent him home on the first day and the remaining four men were asked to share a room.

Matt woke up at 5 am to work out since he was in the Marine Corps, while Lovinjy took the time to impress Sienna by making her some breakfast-in-bed. Later, all the men, other than Wayne, pole danced for Sienna and Lovinjy won some one-on-one time with her by spinning on the pole 3 times.

The four went for drinks with Sienna's friends where Sienna connected with Wayne and he assured her that he was interested in her. She later took a dig at Rich's bartending career and he decided to quit the show. The three remaining men met Sienna's family and she then asked Matt to leave her home after her uncle advised her to do so.

She chose Loveinjy over Wayne at the final dinner.


Five Guys a Week airs on Lifetime every Thursday at 9 pm ET.
