The bachelor now seems to have built a relationship with every woman. That doesn’t make the night of the roses any easier.
It’s getting deep: “The Bachelor” (Wednesdays, 8:15 p.m., RTL and in advance on RTL+) wants to know exactly how three women became and who they are today. Alyssa (36), Angelina (28) and Chiara (26) are allowed to work artistically on a branch and recreate their “tree of life”.
Alyssa is very enthusiastic about the Tree of Life therapy and is processing a bad memory, the loss of her baby. Angelina devotes herself to her bullying experiences and even spontaneously gets a ring from the bachelor. “Just for her to know that I definitely like her.” Although Chiara doesn’t really like art, she’s allowed to stay after the vernissage.
The next soul striptease follows on a single date: Chiara and David tell each other about the destinies of illness in their families and how they dealt with it. Chiara: “I don’t think I’ve ever shared such deep emotions with someone I’ve dated or maybe even been with.” Although the weight of the conversation prevents a kiss, David still describes it as a “milestone” and “wow moment”.
Cock party in the villa
In the villa, the women who stayed behind were given a box full of vibrators for Yolanda’s (26) birthday party and celebrated a “dick party”. On the occasion, Rebecca (28) confesses her secret kiss with David on the last night of the roses. Yolanda: “The bomb of the century!”
The next morning David lets the early riser out again. His message comes before sunrise: Leyla (26), Yolanda, Rebecca, Lisa (32) and Xenia (30) have to explore the animal world with David. In the boat you can search for alligators and feed reptiles.
After that, Leyla gets another chance for a one-to-one conversation, but this is again limited to “Yes…” – “Yes.” – “Yes?” – “Yes…” Leyla’s shyness is slowly becoming a problem for David too and calls it “time that could be used better…” Yolanda also seems insecure and reserved in the one-on-one conversation – very different from the group. After that, baby crocodiles are released, which everyone is excited about, except for Adventure Lisa: “I let the others go first because I actually held a baby crocodile in the Amazon in my hand.”
Later, David comes back to the mansion with lots of pizza. During the karaoke session that follows, everyone yells “Zombie”, Abba hits or Oasis and all good intentions are thrown overboard. Yolanda: “What I did there was the only thing I was told: Yolanda, please don’t sing on TV.”
Emotions run high – for everyone
“My emotional world is going off…!” Says David before the night of the roses. But also that of women: Alyssa is crying, but she doesn’t know why either, Leyla is jealous and angry with herself, Chiara takes refuge in arrogance, Angelina no longer knows what to do with her butterflies and even Lisa, who is actually so cool, suddenly feels insecure.
Even David is overwhelmed by this: “I was hoping that I could rely on my feelings and my emotions, because I have to make a decision again. But I got so many emotions from the girls that I am was more concerned with it at the end.” Maybe that explains why the non-rose finally goes to quota guarantor “Yolo” Yolanda – a clear loss for the show and the eight remaining ladies.
