The current edition of The Island of Temptations has Marieta, who came in as a reserve, the main protagonist. The contestant was the first to be unfaithful and, since then, she has become entangled with Álex, the boy with whom she entered the program, in a spiral of disloyalty and jealousy that they cannot overcome.
This very complicated situation has caused Marieta to end up raiding Villa Playa to look for her boyfriend so they can see each other's faces once and for all. Finally, this encounter narrowly missed, as the rest of the mansion's inhabitants have managed to avoid it.
In previous editions, other participants have also achieved this feat without anyone catching them. It seems easy to go from one town to the other, but it is not like that. You have to take into account the role of determination and luck to be able to cross the distance that separates the mansions. Melyssa Pinto, in the second season, and Javi, in the fifth, are clear examples of how they can cross the approximately 400 meters of land that separate the villas without anyone being able to stop them.
It is during these nights when the contestants find their window of opportunity, taking advantage of the decrease in production and security personnel, who are busy with the logistical planning of scheduled events, such as parties or elimination ceremonies. This greatly reduces the likelihood of being caught red-handed.
Visual guidance plays a crucial role in these escapades. The villas, which have distinctive lighting and features, act as beacons at night, guiding participants to their desired destination. This was the case of Javi, who admitted that he ran "all the way down the beach" until she found a "house that had spotlights and a lot of lights" like the one he was in. So he just took a gamble and got it right.
It is clear that chance plays a fairly important role when it comes to finding the opposite village. But for the assaults to end successfully, it is necessary for the contestants to be in good physical shape to allow themselves to be trapped by the program workers, who in a few minutes realize what is happening and try to find a solution.
