“The Bachelor” Recap: Misery Is All Around

1290

ABC/Craig Sjodin(NEW YORK) — There was plenty of misery to go around on Monday’s new episode of The Bachelor on ABC. The girls who remained were only slightly happier than the ones who were sent packing, and the week ended with Nick Viall in tears.  

Even though Taylor interrupted Corinne’s time with Nick after she was eliminated at the end of their two-on-one date, she was still unable to change the Bachelor’s mind by telling him that Corinne had lied. This season’s villain continued to gloat as Taylor went home, even going so far as to call Nick her boyfriend.

Knowing exactly what he wanted to do, Nick cancelled this week’s cocktail party and went straight to the rose ceremony, sending Alexis, Jaimi and Josephine home.

Leaving New Orleans behind, Nick and his potential brides headed for the tropical paradise of St. Thomas. After initially struggling to connect with Kristina on their one-on-one date, Nick had a breakthrough when the Russian-born dental hygienist opened up to him about growing up in poverty and going to live in an orphanage. By the end of the date, she had a rose.

Nick planned a day of fun in the sun with Rachel, Raven, Vanessa, Corinne, Danielle M., and Jasmine — but it turned out to be anything but. A game of volleyball somehow managed to crystallize the women’s discontent, and Jasmine was incensed to be on another group date, having never had a one-on-one.

Jasmine expressed her frustrations to Nick, which turned into a one-way ticket home. Raven walked away with the rose.

Whitney and Danielle L. remained for another dreaded two-on-one date, where typically one of the girls would be sent home. Nick continued to reinvent the format by deciding he had no future with either of them, relieving them both of their bachelorette duties.

The episode ended as Nick surprised the remaining ladies with a visit after he’d let both Whitney and Danielle L. go, but the mood only worsened. Nick broke down in tears, feeling like both he and the girls were disenchanted with the entire process.

Find out what happens next, when a new episode of The Bachelor premieres next Monday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
