Not here for the right reasons: Bachelorette episode 5 recap *Contains spoilers!

Is this a military custom? Chad is the go-to douchebag name. It’s safe to say this episode lowered my already iffy opinion on JoJo’s personality. Luke – who, along with Robby, is in it to win it HARD this week – squeezes JoJo’s knee and busts out an “I’m falling for you” speech.

Instead, we essentially got Jordan asking Chad to apologize for hurting everybody’s feelings (he didn’t) and what appeared to be a fabricated drama over a tabloid magazine with an article about JoJo conveniently placed for the guys to find. What a weird party.

Afterwards, there was a rose ceremony in which James F. and Daniel were sent home.

“I got a better chance of being struck by lightning…while….shaving my face”. Celeb Dirty Laundry even claimed that Jojo Fletcher personally knows Brittany Farr, which widens the possibility that she also know the issues of Jordan Rodgers. JoJo confronts Jordan about his romantic history. They pretend to have fun, but it looks nothing short of miserable.

Calling in via webcam, JoJo Fletcher’s villain – who was eliminated on the previous episode but stuck around for one more on-air confrontation Monday night – spoke candidly to the host of Jimmy Kimmel Live about his time on the ABC reality dating series. However, some have claimed that she might only be using “The Bachelorette” 2016 victor to get over from Ben Higgins.

“I’m so scared to let him go”, she said, while viewers were treated to a sneak peek of a mystery man holding an engagement ring box.

Now that Robby, Jordan and Derek all have roses, the rest of the men feel super insecure, so they all randomly decide to hate Derek.

Tonight’s episode begins now – Refresh Page often to get the most current updates! JoJo totally was smitten with him, they jumped off a cliff together (“spontaneously”, although they had on bathing suits and water shoes), and he dropped the L-word after revealing his best friend died in a auto accident, giving him perspective on life, (it also led him to breaking up with his girlfriend of three and a half years – yes, the girl who’s now with Chad).

The article made the guys a little anxious that JoJo might still be in love with her ex, but she quickly put their concerns to rest. To showcase your pretty-cry skills, maybe?

JoJo returns to the hotel for her sit down with a producer and drops such truth bombs as “Not all days are taking yachts and swimming with seals”. Crisis averted, I guess! That would scare me, as it seems WAY too early, but not JoJo! “He never told her he had been talking to the show, was thinking of going on, or had agreed to do it”, a source told the publication. At first it seems like JoJo’s a little tuned out while he talks (it seems like that kind of often), but she puts her head on his chest, signaling approval. And a sand boarding group-date in the dessert was enough to get JoJo and her love interests back on track and in a happy place, even though there was jealousy brewing behind closed doors. Sexy? Alex is so mad.
