One of the most talked-about couples on 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days crossed a relationship milestone.

As viewers watched with varying levels of discomfort, Alina and Caleb got hot and heavy.

In the aftermath of the scene that some fans felt went too far, Alina dishes to Elijah about taking Caleb for a ride.

She’s more attached to Caleb than ever … but worried that a guilty secret will ruin things.

On what we assume is the morning after her steamy makeout session with Caleb Greenwood, Alina Kasha goes out with Elijah.

(Just a reminder that nobody’s mad that Alina and Caleb hooked up, it was just weird that editors made the scene last more than two minutes)

Once situated, they order, thank their Turkish waiter, and this 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days sneak peek is all set for Alina to spill.

Elijah asks Alina for details about how last night went.

After all, he was not part of the dinner beforehand, where Caleb and Alina met with Maria.

But he knows that things went down, and he’s right.

Alina describes a “spicy” makeout session, equating it to Tabasco.

(Tabasco is a little controversial due to its vinegar content — some people swear by it, others hate it)

It’s interesting to hear two Russians use a Louisiana-based hot sauce for comparison.

Was it just kissing?

That’s what the cameras and production crew saw before they finally left the room, but Elijah suspects that more went down.

He was right, Alina confirms.

As Alina puts it, she “took a ride on his disco stick.”

While that Lady Gaga reference is now about 13 years old, we all understand its meaning.

When Alina adds that she “literally” did this, it begins to sound like she was on top.

Good for her!

That is more or less Elijah’s sentiment as he congratulates his bestie.

Alina deserves good things, he knows, and he’s happy that she’s gotten this far.

As one can imagine, Alina is now feeling more attached to Caleb than ever before, and she admits as much.

She wants more commitment from Caleb, more serious conversation about where they’re headed as a couple.

She says that Caleb seems to want to postpone serious talks about where things stand.

Elijah asks why she’s telling him this instead of Caleb.

He’s right.

But Alina has a very good reason for not yet feeling comfortable with the idea of pressuring Caleb.

As Elijah well knows, there is something that Alina has not told Caleb.

This secret is weighing on her, and the longer that she waits to tell Caleb, the worse that she feels.

Until she comes clean, she would feel hypocritical or worse for pressuring him to open up.

Caleb gives Alina a very knowing look.

It’s the kind of eyebrow raise that a friend gives to a friend when they know what the right thing to do is.

There is an unspoken understanding here. But Alina makes sure that viewers understand, too.

“My ex and I, we were still together at the time that things were getting serious with Caleb and I,” Alina tells the camera.

“We actually lived together and I hid this fact from Caleb,” she confesses.

“I didn’t tell Caleb,” Alina explains, “because I didn’t want him to back off so I ended up just not telling him at all.”

How long can Alina realistically keep this up?

Elijah asks her, to which she replies that it’s not that she’s intentionally keeping it a secret.

She is just not brave enough, she admits, to tell Caleb.

Elijah suggests that he could always talk to Caleb for her.

This is the kind of offer that is also a threat, but not really intended as either.

Instead, it’s meant as encouragement for Alina — a reminder that she absolutely cannot avoid telling Caleb forever.

Though she is afraid to follow through, Alina acknowledges that Caleb deserves to know.

It’s not ruinous or a dealbreaker, probably, but they can’t move forward and have an honest relationship with this lie hanging over them.

Plus, obviously, if neither Alina nor Elijah tell Caleb, he’ll see it many months later (now) when all of this airs.

On Season 5, Episode 5 of 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days, Caleb and Alina got hot and heavy for the first time.

After thirteen years of friendship, they took things to the next level.

Viewers concerned about how Caleb was reacting to Alina’s disability suddenly found themselves with a whole new worry:

Why in the frick-frack were producers and cameras in the room with them for so long? 

Infamously, Alina Kasha did not get the kisses and snuggles that she had hoped for when Caleb Greenwood first arrived.

He was tired from his long flight, felt gross, and promptly fell asleep.

The next evening, he was in a much more kissy mood — and that carried over into the next morning.

The kissing went on after Alina joined Caleb, who is very active and fitness-oriented, in working out.

This was also the episode when the wild rumors that Alina had “catfished” Caleb by “hiding” her disability were quashed.

Alina and Caleb were more focused on their upcoming dinner with her friend, Maria.

Maria brought up some valid fears — worried that Alina would be a vacation fling for Caleb, not a serious romance.

While there were tense moments at dinner, one thing at least was very clear when they returned to the hotel:

Alina and Caleb were barely getting started when it came to kissing.

Caleb and Alina began making out in the hotel room.

The kissing was reasonably tame (if the audio was a little loud — as much editing as this show gets, that was a deliberate choice).

Once Caleb helped Alina get her shoes off, however, things were dialed up a notch or two.

The kisses grew in intensity, with Alina’s hands exploring under Caleb’s shirt.

Normally, we see moments like this and think of how extremely awkward it must be to do this on camera.

In this case, looking at the two of them, it at times seems like they kept forgetting about the production crew in the room.

Alina had of course seen her hunky boyfriend shirtless before.

But she had a special gleam in her eye as she leaned back and watched as Caleb removed his shirt.

Clearly, the unveiling of his torso was a sight to behold … and then they got right back to it.

The kissing resumed, this time with Caleb’s tiddies out.

The audio was merciless — with their mics catching every smacking sound involved in kissing.

While it would make for very boring pornography, it was nonetheless unusually spicy for reality television.

We also have to emphasize how prolonged this scene was.

Starting very strictly from the moment that they began kissing in the room and ending at the end of the scene, we’re talking more than two minutes.

There were no interruptions or breaks. It was just kissing and kissing and kissing.

“Does it feel kinda weird to you?” Alina asked, self-consciously.

Caleb confessed to her that the only thing that felt weird to him was that they hadn’t done this before.

Thrilled by his answer, she asked him to get the lights, and the kissing resumed in the dark until the camera (mercifully) cut out.

Nobody’s angry with Alina and Caleb for getting it on, but it was a lot to handle.

We’re accustomed to NSFW moments, from Angela Deem flashing the stage to other cast members sharing some excessive information about what has gone down.

But for the episode to drag out this scene for so long was, ironically, a real turn-off for some viewers.

To be completely clear, this was not Caleb and Alina’s fault.

Normally, a scene like that might be edited down to under a minute, and possibly much less than that.

Production just did what they always do — filming what was happening. It was editing that decided to make this scene so lengthy.

Speaking of lengthy, the preview makes it clear that they did a lot more than kiss that night.

Alina can be heard telling her friend Elijah that she rode Caleb into the sunset, so to speak.

We’re very happy for them. We hope that prolonged, uncomfortable makeouts don’t become a huge thing on this show — no matter how hot the cast may be.
