Jess is obsessed with one on one dates. Girl, stop. He's really not into the drama. He's really not. He turns on a dime, at the first sign. He stated over and over that he was confident with her, but then she started crying and saying the same things over and over, then he wasn't feeling it anymore. I get it, she was a mess, but it's startling how quickly he decides it's over. Maybe it went on a lot longer than it seemed. It was probably edited to just give us a taste of why he dumped her. I think the whole episode also highlighted how young and immature she was and Zach may have been surprised and was over it quickly.

Ariel gets the nude sauna date. This should be interesting...

Why are they playing Greek music again? Is this what Estonian folk music sounds like?
And here is why Ariel was picked for this date. If nothing else, it tells me she isn't F1. The lead would never have their F1 in an uncomfortable situation like this.

If she's not F1, I could go for her as Bachelorette. She's different - coolly elegant but with a goofy side, too. Naked couple hops in the hot tub with them. Awkward.

Why do you never see young fit people naked in these kind of situations?
Whenever I have been in these situations...not on purpose...it's always been with people who I really did not want to see in the nude!

Ariel reminds me a bit of Becca Kufrin, not just in looks but also in the gentle but fun personality.

Bonus points: Ariel can hold a conversation without using "like" thirty times.
Of course she gets the rose.

Perfect set up for the next Bette. Of this group, she is the one I would really like to see as the lead. She has a lot of sides to her that would make her interesting. That said, this date was really short. No night part. Just the uncomfortable naked people and a quick chat in the afternoon to set up her storyline.

I want those tiny little pancakes! So cute.
Kiss kiss kiss. Let's do the rose ceremony already.

Charity pulls Kat aside for a chat. Brooklyn has to butt in...no doubt suggested by tptb.

Kat is a piece of work. Brooklyn is butting in, but at least she's right. Kat has no leg to stand on, so nothing she says can justify her behavior (with the incident, and since!) to me.

So, do we think someone behind the scenes in production was the one to tell Zach that something felt "off" on the group date with Kat? To perhaps stir up trouble and perhaps get Kat to talk about her tiff with Brooklyn? If so, Kat didn't take the bait.
I HATE all these machinations.

TPTB and their sticky paws were all over that. I suspect that was a set up for BIP.

Kat gets the last rose, sending Aly and that awful dress home.

But what about Greer? She was MIA this week due to COVID-19.

Not exactly surprised at who was going home since Aly was MIA from this episode. I think we saw her say 2 sentences the whole night...before her exit...then 2 more were added.

They sent Logan home when he got it, but I think it was just a good excuse because they wanted him gone. LOL

I just finished watching last night's episode, and I laughed uncontrollably for a minute or two when Brooklyn and Kat were going at it and Brooklyn said, "If the shoe fits, lace that bitch up." I'm not even sure what that means, but it tickled my funny bone! (Truth be told, I thought she said"...light that bitch up," so maybe I wouldn't have laughed so hard if I'd heard it correctly the first time.)
There were some interesting dynamics around the Kat situation for the rest of the episode I liked how Ariel listened to Kat's side of things without letting her off the hook and kindly held her accountable. I also liked that Kat didn't try to throw Brooklyn under the bus when Zach asked about the tension on the group date. And finally, I thought it was interesting that when Kat was having a hard time at the rose ceremony, Ariel thought about going after her, and Gabi said something like: "It's not in our best interest to get involved. She wouldn't have our backs under the same circumstances."
I get the impression that most of the women actually like Kat but aren't sure what to make of her refusing to admit that her actions were hurtful to Charity. Granted the forceful way that Brooklyn approached things didn't help, but it wasn't smart for Kat to dig in her heels like that.
