On The Bachelor Season 20 Episode 4, Ben Higgins’ “journey” continued, as did in-fighting between the women remaining in the house.
While The Bachelor spoilers revealed the final four and winner an eternity ago, nothing could have prepared us for this level of drama …
Picking up where last week left off, The Bachelor Season 20 Episode 4 saw tensions rise as Ben’s aspiring wives jockeyed for position.
In the end, however, three were sent home.
We’ll start with JoJo Fletcher, who first swapped spit with Ben in front of other contestants and then jumped in a helicopter with the perpetual man of the hour for a date in Las Vegas.
You won’t believe this, but JoJo told Ben she has “trust issues” as a result of a former relationship, but our hero was able to comfort her by saying:
“I’ve had so many moments with you, like, moments when I’m in that moment, and nothing else matters? But there’s so much outside of those moments.”
This man has a way with words. And moments, apparently.
Yes, JoJo got a rose and another kiss out of this date.
As for the group date, a number of potential suitors were forced to take part in a talent show.
It went pretty well for each woman, except for Olivia Caridi, whose bikini and feather boa caused her to have a panic attack before she leaped out of a cake, as originally planned.
“I don’t wanna be on camera,” Olivia cried after her performance. “Why can’t I just have a moment? I’m having a panic attack. I just don’t know if I can do this, you guys. I couldn’t even look at him because I knew he was mortified.”
This is not the kind of moment Ben prefers, which may help explain why Lauren B. received the Group Date Rose.
Olivia, meanwhile, has seemingly never seen The Bachelor and was aghast over how many times Ben has gotten to first base.
“I think he’s my husband, and I feel like I was being cheated on,” she hilariously/ominously stated at one point.
Meanwhile, Ben was talking about Caila Quinn as a “sex panther.” Let’s hope Olivia missed that part.
After referring to herself in the third person while telling Ben she is “falling” for him later on, Olivia also told her fellow ladies that Ben dropped the L Bomb on her.
She thinks she is living in a romance novel apparently. (She said this, too.)
And then, in totally normal news, Becca dressed as a bride for her one-on-one date, riding around in Las Vegas with Ben before he dropped to a knee and asked if she would “marry other people with me?”
How romantic!
But while Becca was picturing an actual wedding between her and The Bachelor, Ben was breaking up with Haley.
He chose to separate the twins after cuddling with them both at their mom’s house and then declaring to said mother… while dumping one of her kids:
“You’ve got two amazing daughters, and they really are incredible in every way.”
Just one of them wasn’t incredible enough.
Rachel Tchen and Amber James also left Sin City with broken hearts, prompting the latter to weep into the camera:
“So much for putting your heart out there. It’s so stupid.”
On that, we can all agree.
That’s all she wrote for this week. You can watch The Bachelor online to see it in full, or you can take our word for the results below:
