The Bachelor Women Tell All Recap, Season 25, Episode 9

Should someone else lie down? Because I’m exhausted. I should take about a gallon downtown, slap no less than seven IcyHot spots and just relax. I wish I had the stamina in my younger years, but when I first think of a motel pillow or the complete racial undoing of a reality franchise, I have to take a salt bath from Epsom. There were so many Bachelor content, controversy and unprecedented chaos over the past two weeks that I can barely keep up with. Is this season of The old guy a 2003 film starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, because this shit comes to me too fast and too furiously. So here we are, in a season that feels like it’s going on forever and inevitably, at The Women Tell All special, and IT DOESN’T HELP.

From the indemnity at the beginning that it was filmed on February 4, 2020, the amorphous, spectral appearance may have had temporary human form, to the new beard of Matt James, to the women who insisted that the true feminist act not on their toxic behavior is not tilted. , up to three possible Bachelorette edits (maybe four?!?!), this Women Tell All was a wild ride and I want to get off of it already.

Let’s get to that.

Among many things that need to be brought to our immediate attention, there were so many dates we did not see. When Chris Harrison started assembling dates they did not broadcast, to deduce from the fact that none of these women like or respect each other, I was like, ‘They left them around a box of bugs tas? What is this television program? Matt sits down with JoJo and Tayshia and does a bootleg Warm people outside the Fat Bird resort, and unless I entered some sort of pocket dimension, we saw nothing of it. It just goes to show that the editorial and storytelling decisions this season have benefited drama and pettiness above literally everything. I do not know if I wanted to watch Chelsea and Abigail pet a bunch of cockroaches, looking for a diamond ring, but boy, would I have had some context on what my fuck is?

After the opening montage where we are reminded that everyone is attracted to Matt James and Sarah a whole thing happened, it’s time to stumble through some conflicts. MJ and Jessenia! MJ says she was just trying to inject humor into the house, and Jessenia insists she should act based on what she saw MJ do and not her intentions, which is fair! Somehow Mari chose her as a secondary interviewer and said, ‘You can say a lot of things about MJ, but you can not say that she is fake.’ No one said she was fake, and Jessenia said they encourage the alienation of the new women. MJ also says that she is not going to break anyone down unless she calls the new women JV compared to the original ladies who are ‘varsity’.

Then the conversation shifts to Victoria that the new women are ‘unwelcome’, and again some women try to paint Victoria as a wrong joke. Ah yes, that classic comedy routine where you constantly call other women sluts and houses on national television! Ryan says she’s tired of being called a ‘ho’ on television just because she’s a dancer. She also says dancers bring emotion and entertainment and … sure … yes. Victoria just says, ‘Well, are you super sensitive? Because people are really mean to me online and I just laugh it off. ”Yes, these are completely equivalent experiences, because you are teased because your bra strap shows ALL THE TIME and is called a slut behind your back.

Honestly, I wish we did not have to address Victoria. It is very clear what she is doing. Instead of owning the damage she did to other people or even denying what she did or said, she does not want to deal with the other women she is dishing out. They are too sensitive, they can not laugh it off, they carry their anger too long, why are they still talking about it now? Because this is the reunion special! We are here to talk about the season and play the last time to become the Bachelorette. Victoria claims to be called horrible things and she is was able to brush it off, so the other women should not hold Victoria accountable.

Katie jumps in to say that she can not just make Victoria and other people in the house bash and not also is hurt to see how someone repeatedly calls her “disgusting”. However, she goes a step too far when she says that it might be karma that everyone realizes that it will not exactly win the fans of social media to be part of a girls team in the house. Chelsea say: “Wait … just one second.” She does not appreciate the hatred they have received which is called ‘karma’. I’m sure the POC contestants are receiving a very specific kind of online setback for just existence, and it should be placed in a different category than people teasing Victoria about her bad eye. But … Chelsea does not seem to be doing it. She starts with this issue where Katie is the real bad guy because she told Matt about the problems in the house. After all, what is feminism, but to make women torture without consequences?

Mari says that Katie was the hardest on Sarah and when she first got to know Sarah and heard her side of the story, she was able to approach Sarah with more and better empathy! It’s called BEING FAKE, KATIE. There is absolutely no desire in any of the women who incited the infamy and bullying to apply the fact that yes, they fucked up. They can and must admit that now and every attempt to overthrow Katie as the villain is trying to avoid responsibility under the guise of faux feminism. I would call it ‘white feminism’, but the crew of mean girls is too diverse.

Next is Brittany on the hot seat. It’s absolutely confusing that they made her look at a montage of Anna calling her an accompanist. Brittany talks about the depression she went through after the season in which she avoided her friends and family. Brittany says her life has changed forever, because if you Google her, ‘Brittany Bachelor accusations escort ”are the first 20 results. She says although Anna offered an anemic apology, she could have issued it in person. She says that no profession is less deserving than another; there is nothing wrong with being a sex worker, just how our society treats them. Anna is basically like, ‘Oh my God! My mistake! It’s all struggling! I can not believe I did, ‘when Anna’s whole atmosphere’ spread rumors about half of her women’s care ‘.

Now it’s time for our parade of Bachelorette hopeful. Katie, Abigail, Serena P. and Pieper all get their turn in the hot seat. Katie’s montage begins with her waving a vibrator and ending with her feeling of blindness, asking why she’s alone at 30, but learning to accept herself. Abigail talks about the fact that Matt let her down, and that she did not give her enough time to promote their bond. She also talks about how she does not exactly fit in with the “capital-D Deaf community” because she does not sign. I know it’s not the program’s responsibility to tell her story, but man, what a fucking waste. If someone had explained to Matt how it was supposed to work and not let him rally her, she might have gotten an early one-on-one date to talk about her life. She says she is happy that she is displayed in a romantic light because disabilities are not always portrayed that way. Pieper says she made all her emotions feel towards Matt because she was blinded by her, turned her off, but she is ready to grow and never settle down again. Serena P. still cares about Matt, but did not want to realize that she was stopping him from investigating another relationship that was more suitable for him. Her mother knew Serena was not happy, and thank God for the acting moms and sisters.

It’s time for Matt and his new beard to sit down and face the women. Chris Harrison asks why he decided to grow his beard and Matt says he feels wiser. He also says that he likes to put some baby powder in his beard and look in the mirror and imagine what he would look like as a grandfather! Matt spends most of his time reassuring the (white) women who behaved badly that they have really good hearts and that he likes them. He can not judge anyone, because he has never been a participant in the program, so who knows what someone would do in the situation ?! I do not know, man. I’m sure it’s really stressful to be at the program, and I’m sure what kind of Christanity will lead you into an insensitive prayer in a room full of strangers teaching you not to judge, but you can judge someone who calls someone a whore. an insult, at least a little. Being in a stressful new environment is no excuse or mitigating factor for violating basic human laws of decency.

Victoria takes the whole thing a step further and starts crying as she thanks Matt for believing in her and explains how her exit was so dramatic because she went through low pain. Matt says he knows her heart and he wishes he could do more for her and their relationship. Bitch, what? It’s very annoying to know what we know about how this season unfolded, to see white women being seen as gentle, misunderstood gentle women who act badly but then shed a tear and are rescued by the first Black Bachelor word. I’m surprised Matt didn ‘t put on an old floppy hat, pick up a stick and belt, whistle a happy tune and disappear into the smoke now that his mission is complete.

It’s time for the women sent home by Matt to braai him. Katie, Pieper and Abigail all have the same question: “How did I go blind?” They all went blind because Matt tended to treat every romantic partner exactly the same, so they had no way of knowing if Matt just liked them or liked them. He can also say how each of him learned something or in some way helped to lead the group. This is just what every woman wants to hear after an outburst: “You were a valuable member of the team.”

It’s time for the last bit of fun as we watch a montage of Matt kissing with his eyes open. WHAT HAPPENS HERE? He did not know that you were supposed to kiss with closed eyes!?!?! Nope. This is too far. This is completely too strange. He says he either tries to peek at the women because his eyesight is bad, so this is the only time he can look at them, or no one has ever told him not to do it. It’s one or the other, Matt. You either made the choice to do it or no one said you could not do it. Nobody told you you could not do that? Have you never talked to anyone? Have you ever kissed a woman and she screamed directly into your mouth when she realized you were staring into her nose? Please remove all material from this guy who kisses for the rest of the season. A few women have said that they try to correct the behavior and he does not do it all the time, so he knows that he should feel ashamed of his transgressions. He’s such a terrible kiss and gets a boner watching a hot lady climb out of a hot tub. Has anyone checked if it is a Big situation?

We end up with some classic bloopers and Chris Harrison can’t wait to have a studio audience again. You may be waiting a while, Chris …

See everyone for fantasy suites!
