90 Day: The Last Resort Season 3 Episode 17 Recap: Tell All Part 1 Biggest Reveals

90 Day: The Last Resort Season 3 Episode 17 brings the couples back together for Tell All Part 1, but several of the relationships look very different from the ones viewers saw at the recommitment ceremony. Patrick Mendes and Thaís Ramone reveal they are separated and moving ahead with a divorce, Kara and Guillermo confirm they are preparing to formally end their marriage, and Paola Mayfield reaches what sounds like a breaking point with Russ Mayfield.

Shekinah Garner is also noticeably absent from the Tell All, leaving Sarper Güven to appear without her. By the end of the episode, the biggest question is no longer whether therapy helped the couples at the resort, but how much of that progress survived once they returned to their normal lives.

Shekinah Skips the Tell All as Sarper Appears Alone

One of the first surprises comes before the deeper relationship discussions even begin. The show confirms that Shekinah declined to participate in the Tell All, while Sarper says he and Shekinah are separated even though they are still legally married on paper.

Sarper says communication between them has completely stopped and claims he blocked Shekinah after their relationship deteriorated on social media. He also introduces Sharon, whom he describes as his virtual girl, adding another unusual development to his life after the separation.

The cast does not exactly hide its feelings about Shekinah’s absence. Several members suggest they still have things they would have liked to say to her, meaning the Shekinah and Sarper story remains unfinished even without her sitting onstage.

Patrick and Thaís Reveal They Are Getting Divorced

Patrick and Thaís provide one of the episode’s biggest updates when they confirm they are separated and in the process of getting divorced. This comes after viewers watched them recommit to their marriage at the end of the retreat.

According to Thaís, there was not one single incident that ended everything. The same problems they had been addressing in therapy continued after they left the resort, and eventually the couple grew apart.

The situation became more serious when their disagreements began happening around their daughter. Both recognized that they did not want her growing up in an environment where she regularly watched her parents argue.

Thaís acknowledges that she was the one who first said she no longer wanted to remain in the relationship. Patrick confirms that she initiated the divorce conversation, although he was ultimately the one who filed because he did not want to drag out the process.

At the time of the Tell All, they say they have reached agreements on the major issues and expect the divorce could be finalized soon.

Thaís Addresses Her Arrest

The Tell All also gives Thaís an opportunity to address the incident involving police that made headlines after filming. She becomes emotional while discussing it and says she had initially avoided talking publicly because she wanted to protect their daughter.

Patrick explains that he called police because he believed doing so would de-escalate the situation. Thaís says Patrick did not expect her to be taken away and even asked officers not to take her once the situation unfolded.

The host notes that the charges were ultimately dropped, which Thaís confirms. The conversation makes clear that the incident became another painful moment in an already deteriorating marriage, although Patrick and Thaís do not describe it as the single reason for their divorce.

Patrick Confirms His $240,000 Debt

Another major Patrick reveal involves reports that he had accumulated roughly $240,000 in debt. Patrick confirms the figure and says much of the money was connected to a struggling business.

He explains that he spent heavily over several years trying different ways to save the business, but it ultimately failed. Thaís is quick to push back against suggestions that she was responsible for spending the money, making it clear that she does not want viewers blaming her for Patrick’s financial situation.

Patrick also acknowledges that the financial pressure affected how well he was able to show up in the relationship. While the Tell All does not present the debt as the sole reason for the divorce, it adds another layer to the stress surrounding the couple.

Kara and Guillermo Are Moving Toward Divorce

Kara and Guillermo also return to the Tell All without having repaired their marriage. Their story had already reached a turning point when Guillermo skipped the recommitment ceremony, and Part 1 confirms that they are now discussing the practical steps involved in formally ending the relationship.

When asked about finalizing matters such as divorce, Guillermo says he feels ready. The host acknowledges that therapy did not bring them back to a place where they could recommit but expresses hope that they can successfully co-parent their son, Nico.

Their breakup is therefore no longer simply about whether Guillermo will reconsider the ceremony. The Tell All presents them as two people preparing to move forward separately while remaining connected through their child.

Russ and Pao Fall Back Into Their Old Problems

Russ and Pao initially tried to use what they learned at the retreat, but Russ admits they eventually slipped back into old habits. Their financial situation appears to be one of the major sources of resentment.

Russ says problems with his business eventually resulted in his truck and trailer being repossessed after he fell behind on payments. Pao argues that difficult things can happen, but she is frustrated by what she sees as Russ allowing the situation to continue rather than fixing it.

Their emotional connection has also deteriorated. Pao admits she still has feelings for Russ, but says those feelings are no longer enough to make her want the relationship.

Tim Confronts Russ Over His Friendship With Pao

The tension increases when Tim joins the Tell All to discuss his friendship with Pao. Russ objects to Tim sending Pao gifts and questions whether his intentions were really innocent.

Tim admits that he liked Pao but says nothing sexual happened between them. Pao also maintains that there was no physical relationship, although she acknowledges that a gold-plated rose Tim sent her felt inappropriate and says she later asked him to keep their relationship at the level of friendship.

For Pao, part of the issue appears to be Russ’ reaction. She suggests she wanted to see more concern from him when another man was showing interest, while Russ believes Tim crossed boundaries that should have been obvious because Pao was married.

Pao Says She Is Done With Her Marriage to Russ

The episode saves one of its biggest relationship developments for the end. After the discussion with Tim, the host returns to something Pao said earlier: she is done with the marriage.

Pao confirms that she means it this time. She tells Russ she does not want to be married anymore and no longer wants to remain in the relationship.

Russ pushes back and argues that they can make changes together, but Pao says she does not recognize the person he has become and cannot force herself to feel differently. Earlier in the conversation, she had already said that although some feelings remain, the connection she once had with Russ is gone.

That leaves Tell All Part 1 on a major unresolved note. Pao is clearly talking about ending the marriage, but the episode stops before confirming whether she has actually taken legal steps toward divorce.

What Happens in Tell All Part 2?

Tell All Part 1 leaves several relationships without a final answer. Patrick and Thaís appear much further along in ending their marriage, Kara and Guillermo are preparing for divorce, while Pao and Russ reach a fresh turning point in real time onstage.

The preview for Part 2 also promises more discussion surrounding Shekinah and Sarper, including Darcey Silva appearing after questions emerge about her connection with Shekinah. With several marriages already collapsing after the retreat, the second half of the Tell All has plenty left to address.
