Calling It Quits

In Episode 5, tensions in the Love Commandos' safehouse reach a tipping point as some couples conspire a takedown of Sanjoy Sachdev, the group's founder. But not everyone is on board with the plan.

NPR correspondent Lauren Frayer speaks to Sachdev about the allegations leveled against him. He denies all charges, and insists that the mission of the Love Commandos will persist – against all odds.

Why are couples so divided in their opinions about the Love Commandos?

And what happens to the newlyweds as they venture out on their own again? Can they make amends with the families they left behind?
