Another day of drama in Fiji began when Paul Danan decided to impersonate Dennis during a game called Make Me Laugh, shouting, "I'm gonna f*** her!" in reference to Colleen Shannon. Surprising the others with the impression, the former Hollyoaks star confirmed that he had heard Rodman saying this.
The news angered Lee Otway, who immediately decided to confront the basketball star over the comment.
"Den, I'm a bit worried about something," he began. "It's something that Paul said initially. He said that you'd said some things to Colleen that were inappropriate. He said that you'd said you were going to f*** her. He's been imitating you saying you're going to f*** her and rather than keep it to himself he's told Colleen and now she's got really upset."
Annoyed by the reaction of the others, Dennis said in the Beach Hut, "I'm not going to be wrapped up in this kid versus kid, he said, she said. No, it ain't happening."
Colleen then took her turn to confront Rodman over his comment, explaining that she felt "disrespected".
"I was upset when [Paul] told me that the joke was basically about me," she admitted. "I feel disrespected that you said that about me. What Paul was repeating over and over again in the game and I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression but I like you like a homie, to go and have sushi with, to be friends with. We can just leave it at that."
"Maybe I should leave tonight?" Dennis replied. "That would be a lot easier because I definitely don't want to say s*** tonight. Don't get me in the middle of this - I don't want to crush these guys' feelings, especially [Lee]. I'll tell him to his face that you have nothing to do with this."
The star eventually decided that he did want to leave the show, packing his bags and shaking Lee and Colleen's hands as he left.
"It ain't going to work for me," he explained. "I'm a nice guy. I don't hit people but I don't need to be in this environment so I want to keep it that way."
