Get a Sneak Peek at the Dramatic Fallout in Tonight's 'Love Island USA' Episode (Exclusive) originally appeared on Parade.

To say we left things on a juicy note on Tuesday's episode of Love Island USA would be an understatement. In a first-ever game for the series, the islanders sent each other postcards with pointed questions or statements about their lives in the Villa up to that point. Tempers flared, arguments broke out and many, many tears were shed. And, just before the Fourth of July, the fireworks appear to just be getting started.

Parade has an exclusive first look at tonight's episode of Season 7, premiering at 9:00 p.m. ET on Peacock. Understandably, much of the attention is focused on the fallout from the game, considering how much baggage was brought to the surface. And we see, from the immediate aftermath through the entirety of the next day, the tension is so thick you can cut it like a C-shaped pancake.

The drama between former couple Olandria Carthen and Taylor Williams hit its emotional conclusion, as the latter formally declared his sole interest in Clarke Carraway. While Olandria seems to now be officially done with her former partner, in the hours following the game, she warns Clarke, "Taylor can be done with you in a split second. Clarke, I’m telling you, open up."

But the next day, Olandria's attention seems to be dedicated to another islander: Huda Mustafa. Huda continued her reign as perhaps the most dramatic person on the season in Tuesday's episode, with multiple people confronting her about pursuing and kissing Chris Seeley, despite knowing he was interested in Michelle "Chelley" Bissainthe. She is clearly not happy with how everything went down, notably staying at a fair distance from the women and even saying in confessional, "I feel like they’ve all stabbed me in the back."

"If you’re gonna take girl code seriously and sisterhood seriously, why are you moving like that with Chris?" Olandria asks her in another scene.

"I deserve attention too! That s–t hurt, Olandria," Huda responds, a tear rolling down her face.

But it isn't just the Day 1 islanders who are getting into it. While late arrivals, the people who came in through Casa Amor have plenty to say as well. Gracyn Blackmore, for example, is not happy with how Jose "Pepe" Garcia talked about his previous partner Hannah Fields, telling him, "I’m just not used to this. I felt invisible sitting there." And some ire seems to be directed towards Zak Srakaew over his lack of affection towards his partner Amaya Espinal. We see Jaden Duggar allegedly say, "I just want to push you in the pool" (though that may be a bit of editing magic and the comment is actually about another player). But it's clear Amaya is talking about Zak when she tells him, "That’s actually f–king insane," clearly still incredulous after he accused her of simultaneously not showing him anything since Casa Amor.

While there is plenty of emotions to shift through in the wake of Tuesday's game, there's one more major matter at hand, which closes out the sneak peek clip. A couple of days ago, fans were asked to rank the current couples in a variety of categories, including coolest to least cool, best to worst vibes and most to least genuine. In addition, at the end of the episode, they could vote on who their favorite man and woman in the Villa was.

It looks like all of these results are coming to come out in tonight's episode. While we don't see the text sent to the islanders, there's clearly some mention of a public vote, with Austin Shepard musing, "This will be our first insight into what the world thinks of us." However, they are shocked to hear Ariana Madix announce that the people who finished in the bottom of the popularity poll would be in danger of going home, and that those eliminated would need to leave immediately. We're a little over a week remaining until the finale ofLove Island USA,and with 20 people currently in the Villa, we need to start making cuts fast. And we'll see how devastating those cuts will be in tonight's episode.
