DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, CARIBBEAN: 'Love And Translation' Season 1 drama escalated as Dylan Hodge found himself in a love triangle. The TLC show contestant sparked a strong connection with Tulay Tan as the duo spent a romantic riverside date.

Dylan also felt an attraction to Sara Mendicino, craving more time in her company. Dylan and Sara's growing chemistry seemed to sabotage his connection with Tulay.

Additionally, Dylan stoked jealousy in Tulay as he extended an invitation to Sara for a date and even referred to her as a 'potential wife' in the upcoming episode.

In a preview of the TLC show, Dylan said, "There's plenty of other ways to develop an attraction with someone without even speaking to them." While alluding to Tulay and Sara, he noted, "I already saw two eyes was giving me a death stare."

Dylan reflected on his dilemma and said, "I already had an amazing date with Tulay but I'm already having a good connection with Sara." He added, "Plus, it's super early on. I don't want to burn any bridges or close any doors that could be a potential wife."

Sara Mendicino felt the spark with Dylan Hodge during their 2-minute staring challenge. She even rejected Tripp Bromley's invitation as she was hoping that Dylan would ask her for a date. She reflected on the challenge and said, "I was not relaxed because I was attracted to him."

She added, "Dylan can ask me out on a date because I think there is something between us." However, after Dylan went on a date with Tulay Tan, she decided to win him back. Sara planned to compete with Tulay for Dylan's attention.

She admitted in the preview of the upcoming episode, "It will be a competition between me and Tulay." Determined to make her move, she announced, "But I'll do anything to seduce him." Sara further noted, "I'm sorry girlfriend, he can date whoever he wants."

However, it seems like Sara thrived in her plan as the preview also teased Dylan asking her for a date.
