As Carina and Jacob recover from her birthday celebrations, they reflect on their very different experiences growing up wog. Whereas Carina spent so long ashamed of not being like the other girls in her school, and rejecting her Italian heritage, Jacob always felt part of such a big, diverse community and embraced his Croatian background. Surprisingly, it was the rise of the Kardashians that really helped Carina first learn to love and accept herself… which is why she freaked out when the producers surprised her with Kris Jenner’s phone number and the opportunity to thank the famous momager for all she’s done.

A note for international listeners: In Australia, wog is seen as a term of endearment for people of Mediterranean descent.
