A Virgin Island surrogate ended a session immediately after one contestant made a shock comment.
During his session with one of the sex experts, Zac, 28, made it clear to his 'surrogate partner,' Kat, that he was ready to have sex.
However, Kat seemed to be keen to stick to the session's designated aim, touch, and told him so.
Zac stressed: "I came in here confident and excited, and I don't know if you're as used to that in this line of work, and I don't know if you find that intimidating."
The interaction left viewers stunned by the interaction, with one X user saying: "What is going on with Zac from Virgin island?"
"Zac is straight in, imagine my shock," said another.
The Channel 4 show sees 12 virgins receive expert coaching from both therapists and intimacy experts in an aim to gain sexual relationships.
In the run of the show, all 12 virgins achieve a level of intimacy with either a surrogate or a coach; however, only one actually gets to go all the way.
When the first episode of the show aired, it sparked major controversy online but has since defended itself and its aim.
Speaking to the MailOnline, makers of the show explained that it gives viewers a realistic idea of what intimacy is.
Sexologist Celeste Hirschman described the relationship between the client and the surrogate as 'authentic'.
"So one thing that can happen in a relationship is that someone has performance problems, and so they would just communicate about it and say, oh, you know, something's not working here. Let's take a break. Let's try again.
"That authenticity is what actually prepares people to have real relationships out in the world," she added.
She continued: "So it's not just like trying to force something, and a lot of times surrogates do work with people who have pretty significant dysfunctions, and so they need to work with those kinds of things, both in their clients and if it comes up in themselves as well."
