For months fans have been dying to watch the entirety of the fire-pit scene and the real discussion that happened ahead of the decision to send Andrea home. This comes after Leah faced fierce backlash in the villa from Rob and her fellow islanders after she claimed that she took a "backseat" in the choice to dump the bombshell .

And while viewers were stunned that the footage wasn't aired during the movie night, they finally got a long, unedited clip of the conversation during the reunion special.

As the conversation aired, fans took to X, formerly Twitter, joking about the hilarious choice to include everyone's real-time reactions to the footage. One viewer wrote: "hahahaha producers showing their reactions watching the fire pit scene back was so funny." And another added: "honey love island producers are PETTYYYY they playin everyyyyyyy second of this backseat convo huh." And another chimed in: "Whew! The producers are messy for this! This is easily top 2 seasons in all of Love Island global history. I feel like I’m listening to some sort of CIA espionage tapes."

In the conversation, it was clear that it was a in-depth discussion weighing all of the pros and cons of sending home either Nicole or Andrea from the island. The group overall seemed to struggle to make a choice as they were seen begging producers for extra time even after taking an anonymous group vote.

After the conversation aired during the reunion, Liz apologized to Leah for not backing her up when she said she tried to take a "back seat" in the decision. After back and forth between Leah, Rob, and Liv, Leah wrapped up the conversation as she said: "I don't think I took a beat seat in that conversation. I think everyone spoke and we all said that as well but what p---ed me off personally that I had a huge sway to vote out Andrea," and added: "And if I wanted to get Rob back, sorry I don't want to be his second choice. That was not the way I was going to get him back. Ever. Like I would never do that in a million years."
