Whereas the remainder of the boys pack and prepare to schlep their technique to their new location on a bus, Charity selects Brayden for the primary one-on-one of the week (cue the disgruntled sounds from the others). The 2 of them will probably be taking a helicopter to the following vacation spot as an alternative.

Brayden won’t be making many buddies in the home, however he appears to actually have Charity’s consideration. She needs to see if he’s able to decide to somebody after he expressed he considered leaving manufacturing due to her four-minute kiss with Joey. The date kicks off on a excessive observe although, because the pair sip champagne within the air earlier than touchdown in the midst of Petco Park.

After tossing a baseball round a bit, they imbibe in additional champagne in the midst of the sector. This offers them an opportunity to open up extra, and Brayden shares that he’s fighting the concept of sharing her with the opposite males. He says he isn’t positive he can proceed or if the present will turn out to be “too much” for him, which is (rightfully) a little bit of a pink flag for Charity. She needs extra affirmation from him that he can struggle for them, in any other case she’s able to ship him house.

In the meantime, the boys try their new beachside digs and wrestle over their rooms. Then, in fact, they’re again to launching their anti-Brayden marketing campaign, which, traditionally, is not going to harm Brayden and can solely harm themselves…however earlier than they’ll dwell on that for too lengthy, they obtain a bunch date card!

Joey, Aaron B., Michael, James, Aaron S., Caleb B. (the one Caleb left now!), Sean, Xavier, Tanner, Adrian Dotun, and John are chosen for the group date. Meaning Warwick could have the distinction of the week’s second one-on-one.

It’s time for the second half of Charity’s date with Brayden, and she or he’s nonetheless feeling very hesitant after they meet again up at Petco Park.

He says it’s as a result of he’s been cheated on up to now, so he’s “walking back into that trauma.” He reiterates that he doesn’t know if he can endure this. In a confessional he says he doesn’t need to give her the expectation that he can stick round, which is…worrisome, to say the least. However, it looks like saying he’ll strive is sweet sufficient for Charity. She gives him the rose.

Time for the group date! It’s synergy central this week, because the present is selling Greta Gerwig’s Barbie with a date themed to the long-lasting doll. Former Bachelorette JoJo Fletcher and her husband Jordan Rodgers are available to assist facilitate the date. To indicate their devotion to Charity, the boys might want to write a love music to the tune of Cyndi Lauper’s “Girls Just Want To Have Fun.” They usually should carry out their music dressed as a Ken doll, in fact.

Similar to final week, the person who impresses Charity essentially the most will get to spend one-on-one time together with her after the group date. Most of them look fairly goofy as they take the stage in entrance of a beachside crowd to carry out, however they take it in stride and play alongside. Caleb B. breaks out some formidable notes as Cowboy Ken, virtually turning the music right into a ballad. Nevertheless it was Double Denim Ken (aka Sean) who caught Charity’s consideration along with his skill to pump up the group and his confidence to drag her in for a kiss on the finish of his efficiency.

Whereas the remainder of the boys go put together for the cocktail occasion, Sean and Charity take a solo stroll down the seashore to soak in some alone time collectively. The opposite males are noticeably distraught, since lots of them have had little one-on-one time with Charity. That is often the time the place it begins attending to their heads, and this season proves to be no completely different. The lads aren’t taking part in round anymore.

When Sean enters the cocktail occasion on his excessive horse, the boys are fast to attempt to knock him down, particularly after he steals Charity away to “finish their conversation” the second she enters the room. And by dialog, he means their steamy make-out session. Now the remainder of the group is admittedly mad, however some are taking it higher than others. John makes use of this as a chance to steal a while of his personal with Charity whereas the others are nonetheless fuming.

Dotun will get the distinction of visiting Charity’s room, as a result of she wished to discover a extra intimate setting for the 2 of them to speak.

One way or the other, the boys are nonetheless mad at Sean for stealing an excessive amount of time, blaming him for them not getting the group date rose.

However there’s not a lot time to dwell on that, as a result of Warwick is happening his one-on-one! He’s positively a quiet one, so even the boys say they don’t know a lot about him — that means that we as viewers know nearly nothing at this level. Possible, that’s why Charity selected him to get to know this early on.

Charity takes him to Belmont Park, the place they’ll get to frolic round all night time by themselves. For some time, they’re having enjoyable, however Charity shortly will get pissed off along with his unwillingness to open up together with her. As they awkwardly sit and eat ice cream collectively, it begins to turn out to be clear that there could not be a connection there. Surprisingly, Warwick does assume it’s going nicely! So, perhaps there’s just a few miscommunication. There’s nonetheless time for deeper discuss throughout dinner.

Charity dives proper in, asking him to share extra about his life and his earlier relationships. However all he tells her is that he was in two earlier relationships that didn’t work out “for whatever reason” and he couldn’t give any examples of how he exhibits up for his companion in a relationship. Charity says she prides herself on being a very good communicator, which appears to be her manner of getting him to open up. Shock! He says his weak point is communication.

The writing was on the wall from the start of the date, and Charity tells Warwick she will be able to’t give him the rose. He almost falls asleep within the automobile on the best way to the airport, so it looks like he wasn’t that impressed by the date both.

Forward of the rose ceremony, Brayden reveals that he isn’t positive if he’d be able to get engaged on the finish of this. Gasoline to the anti-Brayden hearth. It’s solely a matter of time earlier than that blows up.

Properly, it doesn’t take very lengthy. After a number of nice conversations with the opposite males, Aaron B. pulls Charity apart to inform her about Brayden’s feedback. Charity is visibly pissed off, and at this level she doesn’t know what to assume. To his credit score, Aaron tells Brayden that they spoke about him earlier than Charity has the chance to blindside him. Brayden tries to play it cool, however he clearly isn’t completely happy that one other man is speaking to Charity about him. As soon as once more, the boys are extra pissed off with Aaron for mentioning the drama than with Brayden for what he stated — shocker.

Charity is fairly upset with Brayden although, and she or he says she’s ready to take the rose again from him. He contends that he’s solely hesitant as a result of they haven’t gotten to know one another but, however Charity says she’s extra involved about what he’s saying to the opposite males. Charity leaves their dialog very uneasy, and she or he’s undecided if she ought to take a danger on Brayden.

Like clockwork, Jesse Palmer ends the cocktail occasion earlier than anybody else can discuss to Charity. Time for the rose ceremony. At this level, all the boys assume Brayden ought to depart, but it surely’s as much as Charity to resolve the place her coronary heart is at.

Finally, she doesn’t take the rose again from Brayden. Seems to be like he’s sticking round for one more week.
