The players are introduced to the Circle and quickly get things started with a game. Game ("Risky Quizness"): The players must answer if they would do a risky activity. It is then revealed who chose yes or no. Darian has suspicion cast on him as he answered differently than the rest of the group during the game. Several alliances are starting to form, "Gianna" and "Rachel" bond over their shared history in Staten Island while "Andy", Darian, and Kevin have a bro chat. Rating time comes around quickly and the players submit their first ratings. "Rachel", who Savannah chose as her last place, reaches out to Savannah to hear her story. The ratings are revealed and "Gianna" is in last. "Andy" and Savannah become influencers. The Disrupter Mode is revealed, giving either a huge positive advantage or a negative setback when activated. A 3...2...1... countdown starts and "Gianna" is the first to activate it.

"Andy" and Savannah discuss who to eliminate and choose "Gianna". They then reveal it to the players in Circle Chat. It is also revealed that "Gianna" activated disrupter mode earlier and has blocking immunity. Therefore no one is blocked. After a restful night, "Andy" decides to start a chat with "Gianna" and smooth things over which goes well. Darian slides into Jadejha's private chat and Savannah slides into Kevin's private chat. Two new players, Madelyn and Garret, enter the Circle but are not yet revealed. Game ("Throwback Thirsty"): Each person must post a steamy photo of themselves and the other players will respond with emojis to show how thirsty the photo makes them. The new players get to lurk on the game before being announced and posting their photos. Disrupter Mode is once again available to be activated - but the players do not know if it will be good or bad this time. Multiple players try to disrupt, Kevin was the first player to claim it and becomes the Disrupter. The Disrupter is invited to the new player welcome party and gets to choose two players to join. Kevin picks Darian and "Gianna" after he is outed as the Disrupter.

Meanwhile, "Rachel" starts a chat with Jadejha and "Gianna" to ask for the details from the VIP party and proposes an alliance. "Andy" begins a chat to flirt with Madelyn who is convinced "Andy" is not a catfish. Game ("Kray pop"): Players are asked pop culture multiple choice questions. The answers are then revealed, as well as who got them wrong. Suspicion is cast on "Rachel" during the game. After the game, players lock in their ratings. "Andy" asks Darian and Kevin about the VIP party. The rating results are then revealed - Savannah is in last place and Kevin and "Gianna" are the influencers. While the influencers decide who to block, the at-risk players chat about their suspicions of the influencers. Kevin then reveals who he and "Gianna" decided to block.

Things get heated in the ensuing chat, especially between influencers "Gianna" and Kevin. Garret is invited to chat with some of the girls but an invite for a chat with some of the boys interrupts. The Disrupter is once again available and multiple people choose to disrupt. The Disrupters are both Madelyn and "Rachel" who must swap profiles until the next blocking.
