The challenge had started off smooth for the other couples. For the first hour, at least. There was laughter, picture-perfect smiles, and a few naive hopes that perhaps—just perhaps—they got the easy baby.

They were wrong.

Leo and Adrian

Leo and Adrian's suite quickly spiraled into chaos.

At first, Hana had seemed like an angel—quiet, curious, even cooperative. But once she realized she could walk, talk, and demand things... the diva emerged.

She began pointing at everything with a sharp, chubby finger. “Want,” she said. Then again. Louder. “WANT!”

Leo blinked. “Sweetheart, that’s not a toy. That’s contour.”

Before they could intervene, Hana snatched Leo’s makeup pouch off the vanity and dumped it with a flourish that would make a magician jealous. Compacts crashed. Lipsticks rolled under the couch. And then, with a wicked gleam in her eyes, she reached for the prized treasure:

Leo’s limited-edition Dior perfume bottle.

“Wait—NO! Not that one!” Leo screeched in horror, lunging forward like a slow-motion action hero.

Too late.

The bottle slipped from Hana’s tiny fingers, hit the floor, and shattered into a glittering puddle of designer tragedy.

Leo gasped, one hand flying to their chest. “That was $250!”

Hana stared at the mess, blinked once, and then—with the sass of a tiny queen—shrugged and walked away like a scene from a drama.

“Did she just… shrug?” Leo whispered, stunned.

“She’s just like you,” Adrian muttered, watching the toddler strut across the room in her tutu like she owned it.

“No. She’s worse,” Leo said, exasperated. “I at least know how to appreciate fine fragrance.”

But it wasn’t just the perfume.

Hana refused to eat anything unless it was color-coordinated. She rejected toys that didn’t sparkle. She demanded three different songs within five minutes and threw a full tantrum because one of the teddy bears had “ugly eyes.”

The couple tried everything—cajoling, bribing—but Hana remained unmoved. She was chaos wrapped in designer baby clothes.

By the end of hour two, Adrian was lying face-down on the floor while Leo held his ruined makeup bag like it was a war casualty.

“I think she’s possessed,” Adrian muttered.

“She’s not possessed,” Leo sighed. “She’s just… opinionated. And terrifying.”

With following hours the couple struggled to handle the tantrums of the alpha pup.

Adrian's patience was out and he left Leo in the suite and walked out to catch a break while Leo watched him in disbelief.

He was alone as he held the pup who was now throwing away the TV remote in anger..

Daxon and Milan

Daxon and Milan were in trouble from the moment the door closed behind the crew.

A long, awkward silence followed as the pup watched Peppa Pig in silence giggling once in a while.
