I forget where I heard but someone said they think there was a lot of alcohol motivating the conversation. But damn, let the girl speak! I was shocked that it was Joe and Riley doing this. I would expect it from someone like James or Aaron!

I might be proved wrong but I think there will be a big confrontation with Brendon and Pieper next week. I think the producers are just editing the timeline like crazy and they're holding back the big confrontation scene to get us to keep watching.

I think something is coming because Demi is going to start it, but it didn't come first

Chris released a statement on social media apologizing for his actions toward Jessenia. But also said he felt like he was bullied off paradise and to not compare his situation to Brendan and Pieper.

I really don't think they are comparable. Was him kissing Alan with Jessenia right there before talking to her a dick move? Absolutely. But this really wasn't much different than a someone accepting a date from a newcomer and kissing them and not having a conversation with the person they were talking to prior (see Maurissa, Tammy and JESSENIA). Apparently I'm team Chris and I don't think I really even like the guy.

I think something is coming because Demi is going to start it, but it didn't come first That’s a good point. I guess what I meant was - I don’t think the cast members were privy to the worst things Brenden and Peiper were saying to each other that the audience heard in the last episode. The stuff about followers, the US weekly magazine, Pieper thanking Brenden for “playing the game” for her, the idea that Natasha had no other prospects and was annoying to Brenden, etc. Natasha knows that Brenden lied to her and we’ve seen her tell a few people like Ivan but idk if it got around to everyone on the beach yet. However, they did see Chris kissing Alana in front of Jessenia without having talked to her first so they confront him. As a viewer, the editing of the episode makes you think - why are they coming after Chris so hard when what Brenden did was so much worse? But I don’t think they let Brenden slide, I think they confront him in next week’s episode and that all of this stuff was basically happening in the same few day or two and the producers are setting B&P for an even bigger fall from grace. I hope it’s a blowout because what Brenden did was so awful and gaslighting. In a way, I think it’s good that the big confrontation scene hasn’t played out yet because stringing it out over 2 weeks will cause them to lose even more followers.

They all warned her ahead of time that he had a relationship with Peiper and there were words floating around there when Peiper showed up. I just think Jessenia is more liked or maybe they felt that Natasha could stick up for herself I am not sure. the only ones out of that group who saw the kissing was Jessenia and Riley

“Joe and his mob of disgruntled females” (!) - when a man calls women “females” that’s such a red flag IMO.

They definitely didn’t come as hard at Pieper and Brendan.
Dr. Joe is hilarious.

Last night was terrible. The only good part was Joe and Serena. Then they had to ruin that with Kendall. Poor Ivan I just want him to find his person.

angelashly, YES on Ivan. When he and Kendall were kissing? WHAT? Where did that come from, and then her rebuff of him on the beach while she stared down Serena and Joe was AWK AF. She is terrible and Ivan is not. I had hoped maybe he and Natasha would spark joy but I think maybe he's too sweet? Dr. Joe had potential as a match for her, but Natasha was dead-on when she noticed him completely change body language and tone (snaps) when she let him know about Brendan and Pieper.

I thought so too about Ivan and Natasha, but I guess she sees him as a good friend. I laughed when Ivan asked Kendall if she had dated anyone else in Bachelor Nation and she said no she avoids it and he laughed and said avoided it but then came to Paradise.

There's so much we haven't seen because they devoted 3 entire episodes to the Chris/Alana/Brendan/Peiper mess. It's lovely Natasha got a bonus rose to stick around, but the producers are picking people for drama, not for matchmaking. They 100% could pick better people with better timing to end up with more love/dating matches at the end. It makes Wells look like a pawn too IMO and I'm not here for it

They need to make these people give up their social media like 3 months prior to filming. Don't tell them who is going. Don't let them talk to each other. Let it all be a surprise when they show up.

Did anyone else notice when Dr Joe came in and met everyone when he hugged Natasha he said "nice to finally meet you in person"?
I'm starting to think this is all a set-up/manufactured

I've always assumed bachelor folks speak to each other in real life and likely keep up with current seasons. I mean I know a lot of them hang out just from the few bachelor people I follow. So it doesn't surprise me that they people start talking on social media and then meet for the first (or second) time in paradise.
I feel like this was kept on the DL in earlier seasons, though.
I do agree that it would be more interesting if they weren't allowed to discuss paradise attendance with each other beforehand. It would keep things much more authentic.

I get people have likely talked or met beforehand, but there's a fine line of "nice to finally meet you" and kicking people out because they met a few times beforehand. And it seems pretty blurry. Based on what we saw, which probably wasn't the whole picture, Chris and Alana probably weren't as dirty about it as Brendan and Peiper, but they were treated worse. And then Dr Joe comes in after all the drama and says "nice to finally meet you in person", which means they definitely had at least a casual online chat, but it was never brought up. Just be up front about it
The show has done tons of stuff to bring people together from various seasons, charity work, cruises, different shows, etc. People meet. Just don't be dirty. I feel ABC is playing into the dirty and I don't like it. It almost made me feel for Brendan and Peiper admitting they wouldn't have to same opportunity to explore a relationship "in the wild". Just let these people all sign up to come and meet the people the want and go to the boom boom room 🤷♀️
