If you have yet to see tonight’s 6th episode, spoilers are ahead! We start off tonight’s The Bachelor episode with MJ and Jessenia doing a 2-on-1 with Matt to see about who is toxic and who isn’t. Matt James tries to figure out what took place between the girls. Jessenia shares that the persona that MJ does with Matt is not who she is and that she has been one of the people who was involved in the mean girl clique. MJ explains that she has gone through a lot in her life and doesn’t like that she is being defamed as she would never do that to someone. He likes both of the women and acknowledges that he has formed relationships with both of them, but knows he can’t continue the journey with both of them there. Although he is conflicted, he gives the rose to Jessenia and walks MJ out. MJ feels that she was sabotaged and wants nothing but the best for him.

Immediately after, it’s time for him to focus on the rest of the ladies. The ladies walk in and see the rose tray is empty and speculate on who will be coming back. The girls are ready to get on with the night and to spend some time with him so that they can get to know him and to get past the theatrics. They all talk about getting to have some time with Matt and how they will get to be reconnected. Chris Harrison walks in and lets them know that there will not be a cocktail party and they will go straight to the ceremony as he is exhausted and knows what he wants. Going into the ceremony, Jessenia, Rachael, Abigail and Kit already have roses - so 3 are going home. Serena P, Michelle, Pieper, Bri, Chelsea, Katie and Serena C receive roses. Magi, Brittany and Ryan do not receive roses.

We’re back at Nemacolin and Pieper gets the 1-on-1 evening date. Serena C pulls Katie to the side and lets her know that her antics take time away from her each time she wants to talk with Matt. Serena C feels that Katire is telling Matt everything that takes place in the house and lets her know that she actually allows the girls to speak for themselves and to tell their stories. She merely lets him know that there is general unrest going on and that he should find out more information. As the girls have their spat deciding who is here for Matt. Heather from Colton’s season decided to pop by and said that a friend told her that she should meet him. Chris lets her know that they are in quarantine so she just can’t just come in! He has to speak with other people on this and there are a lot of protocols involved.

Matt picks her up and drives her into the woods and gives her a flashlight as it is very dark outside. They walk through the dark and after flipping a switch, there is an entire carnival set up for them to enjoy! There are a number of rides, lights and more - which is such a fun date for them to enjoy.

While Pieper is on her evening date, Bri, Kit, Rachael, Michelle, Jessenia, Serena P, Abigail, Chelsea and Serena C are on the next group date. That means Katie will have the 1-on-1 date. Meanwhile, Heather from a previous season (she is friends with Hannah B) has begun the quarantine process and is on her way to seeing if she can be included as a potential woman to be involved in Matt’s journey. Clearly, the surprises never stop! Back at Pieper’s date, she lets Matt know that she is following in love with him - she does receive the rose. After a date with a carnival and a dinner, they get a performance by Temecula Road.

The group date begins and it’s a bowling date. After a few minutes, Chris lets that know that they will be divided into 2 teams. Whoever wins, gets the afterparty and the winner will get to go to the afterparty. From the pink team, Chelsea, Jessenia, Michelle and Bri get to have more time with Matt. Kit, Chelsea, Abigail, Serena C and Rachael are walking back home in the rain. The Blue Team is bummed because they don’t even get the rose that is up for grabs for that portion of the date. While the girls enjoy their time, the Blue team gets a special date card where they are told that they will get time as well. Apparently, they were invited back into the afterparty on the same night! Of course, it causes some of the girls to get annoyed as they thought that they would have an opportunity to have a 1-on-1 time. Chelsea definitely has an issue with more people being there and not being able to get the time. Michelle receives the rose from the group date.

Before his 1-on-1 date with Katie, Matt catches up with his best friend, Tyler which we all know from Hannah’s season on The Bachelorette. They are best friends, live together and they also run their food business together. Katie and Matt are going to enjoy a spa date with one another. They will be in the ear of the masseuse that will be massaging Tyler. It seems like this date will be more of a prank date. Thankfully, Tyler was good-natured about it and got to meet Katie (we hope he got to enjoy a real massage afterward). At dinner, the two connect and not so surprisingly, he tells Katie that he can’t give her the rose as his relationships with the other women have moved along faster. Although it’s not a shock, Katie was a huge reason for a lot of Matt’s awareness of what was going on in the house. Katie kept it classy wishing him good luck and letting him know that there were good women in the house. The women see her suitcase being wheeled out from the hotel lobby.

The girls assemble for the cocktail party and they look forward to being able to have 1-on-1 time. They recognize that there have been antics and distractions, but this will be the first night where it will be a regular night. Matt greets them and the cocktail party begins with him pulling Abigail aside to catch up with her. Heather is on her way to the resort. Heather walks in past the girls, waves and right into the conversation that he is having with Pieper.

Each night, we’ll tweet about The Bachelor and you can chat along with us (@AthleisureMag + with our Co-Founder/Creative + Style Director, Kimmie Smith @ShesKimmie) to see what’s taking place!

Each week we will let you know who our faves were last episode and if we’ve changed up since then as it pertains to who we think should go to Hometowns if we were choosing right now! We will also say who we think should take it all.

We also suggest a podcast that we’re newly obsessed with, Wondery’s Bachelor Happy Hour which is hosted by Rachel Lindsay (contestant on The Bachelor Season 21; The Bachelorette Season 13) and co-hosted by Becca Kufrin (contestant on The Bachelor Season 22; The Bachelorette Season 14) to get their feedback!

LAST WEEK

Even with all of the twists and turns, we selected Abigail, Bri, Rachael and Brittany to be the ones that we could see at hometowns.

THIS WEEK

Well, this week had more twists that were expected and unexpected. We’re shaking it up this week as Brittany was not given a rose and we see some great synergies between Matt and some of the ladies. We see Hometown dates including:
