- Tonight on
"The Bachelorette"...

- The trajectory in which
we are moving is alarming,

but scary things are
always worth it.

- [laughs]
- Ah!

- Oh, my God!

[laughing] I'm not gonna stop.

I could not be happier.

I can just tell
by the way you talk,

the love you have
is incredibly special.

- This means the world to me.

- Thank you.

- I'm feeling on top
of the world right now.

- She wants
a cookie-cutter dude,

that's your cookie-cutter dude
right there.

I just want you to stop
being the Bachelorette

for one minute.

- I am sad on the inside

because this is somebody

who I could have seen
a forever future with.

- I feel very protective
of Charity's emotions.

You are not a man, bro.

- This is, like,
actually ridiculous.

- I'm sick of wasting time.

- Aaron, I'll [bleep]
whup your ass, bro.

Get in my face, dude.

- Punch the gas, man.

So pretty!

This week we are in
Stevenson, Washington,

and I mean,
I've never been here before.

First-timer, but it is
absolutely breathtaking.

The trees, the mountains,
the greenery--

it's insane.

It's so cute.

It's a new week.

I have 10 guys,

and we are halfway through
this journey.

Being here in a new location,
anything can happen.

Oh, this is so beautiful.

But I'm more than ready
to just continue

to explore what's--what's here.

all: Charity!

- We're in freaking
Washington state.

- I could care less
about this rain,

because this is unbelievable.
- Wow.

- We're staying in
the Skamania Lodge,

and the property is
absolutely incredible.

I have not seen anything
like this before.

[all cheering]

- Yo!
- Very nice.

- It is absolutely gorgeous.

Literally the view is water,
pine trees,

and a mountainside that
literally touched the heavens.

- Look at this.

- I feel like
I'm in a movie right now.

- This lodge is very cozy.

Definitely giving, like,

"cabin trip" type of vibes.

I will be on a couch
in the blankie,

Charity right here.

- There's a fireplace
in our room?

- Last week was crappy,

but being out here
in Washington's

making me feel better.

I love being outdoors.

I love hiking.

I'm excited to see Charity,

and keeping it A-positive.

Let's go, baby. [laughs]

[knock on door]
- Oh, shoot.

- Gentlemen, how we doing?

- Good.
- What's up, Jesse?

- Welcome to Skamania County,
Washington.

- Yes, sir.
- Yes.

- How are you liking
the lodge so far?

- Dude, it's--
[all speaking at once]

- Pretty cool, right?
- Beautiful.

- I got to tell you, man,
this really is

a beautiful part
of the country.

So Skamania means
"swift water."

And right now,
you're in the heart

of the Columbia River Gorge.

This is a place that's famous
for its rivers,

for its forests,
and its clean mountain air.

Fun fact too--
this place is also famous

because they have
more Bigfoot sightings

than anywhere in the country.

Yeah.

In fact, Sasquatch himself
has been spotted

around these areas
more than a couple times.

So keep your eyes peeled.
You might see him.

- He's real.
- All right.

But on a more serious note,

Charity's here.
- Whoo!

- And she is really looking
forward to seeing you all.

You ready to get
this week started?

all: Yes.

- Thank God,
'cause I got this--

this date card that's just been

burning a hole
in my back pocket.

All right, fellas.

Wish you luck. Have fun.

See you later this week.

- Bye, Jesse.
- Bye, guys.

- All right.

- Everyone's hoping to hear
their name

on that one-on-one card.

Last week, the cocktail party
gets ended early

because of all this drama
that's been centered

around Brayden and Aaron.

As a result, I didn't get time
that night.

So I want that one-on-one
more than anything.

[soft music]

- I'm shocked.
- Oh, boy.

- Good luck, boys.

- I really want
that one-on-one time.

These group dates,
you can only do so much.

And so I really think
we're about ready

for that time
to take that next step.

It's kind of
what our relationship needs

at this point.

So happy to get

The timing couldn't be better.

I feel so prepared and ready,

I have a one-on-one date

[upbeat music]

- The more feelings
I develop for Charity,

the more, like, seeing guys
go on these one-on-ones

like, sucks.

It's starting to, like,
really, like, hurt.

It's, like,
all I can think about.

You know? It's like, shoot.

to all these guys
who haven't even gotten

to spend time with her
really yet

saying that they have
connections.

They--like, what do you have
a connection with?

Like, they don't know
her favorite color.

- In this stage of the game,
I'm thinking about,

how can I feel comfortable

bringing Charity home
to meet my family?

What do I need to know?

What does she need to know
about me?

- Like, Sean, dude,
you're driving me insane, man.

- I'm not gonna spend my time

telling how
this situation is tough

because I just don't think
it would further our connection

by me expressing that to her.

- "Oh, I just have really just
a solid connection with her."

Like, [bleep]
with his butt chin,

and dude looks like
Prince Charming off of "Shrek."

- You know, when you do have
those moments where, you know,

you're feeling upset,
you can tell her,

hey, look, like, I felt upset
about this situation

because I have feelings
for you.

- Aaron backstabbed me,

tried to question
my intentions

and whether or not
I'm here for the right reason.

Like, oh, God, dude.

I mean, Aaron,
bitch move, dude.

- You do realize that
if Dotun comes back,

that's one less rose
for all of y'all.

- I have the strongest
connection right now with her.

I think that's apparent.

You know, she gave me
the First Impression Rose.

She took me on that date.

She didn't take that rose
off my chest last week.

So obviously,
there's something there.

Like, frickin' ask me
what her favorite color is.

Blue.

"I feel like I have such
a connection with Charity."

That was his butt chin,
by the way.

I just conquered a fear
that I thought

I was never going to be
able to do,

and I did it
with an incredible person

who truly was the only reason
I was able to get through that.

Whew.

but she still pushed through,

and I just value that
so much in a person.

to her at this time.

- The sun is, like, radiating.

- Literally.

- Whoo!

From the beginning,
Dotun consistently

has made me feel
really protected.

Whoo!
- So crazy.

- Give me a kiss.

In relationships,
I've always been

the one that has looked out
for other people,

but he was able
to look out for me.

It means a lot.
It says a lot.

Oh, it's a rainbow.

- There it is.
- It's following us.

- I was looking for it.

[both sighing]

[laughter]
We did that at the same time!

No way.

Why are we such in sync
with each other?

[geese honking]
[thunder rumbling]

- I think that one-on-one is
exactly what Dotun needed.

This is where you really start
to figure out

if you're compatible
as partners.

And him getting
that one-on-one shows me

that he had such
a connection with her

that she wanted more time
with him.

And that's scary for us.
Like, I'm not gonna lie.

It's not fun
to see someone else

starting to build
another strong connection

with Charity.

- That's the thing.

If you think too broadly
of the situation,

you're going to spiral.

And you're gonna let
those thoughts come in

and they're just
going to rule you.

- Yeah. I mean, one date,

one day, can propel you back
down out of that confidence.

- It can.

I mean, you can see
with Brayden.

- I think I'm in danger
this week

depending on how Charity's
actually feeling.

- Yeah,
that's what I did say, man.

You want to share?
- She's pissed off at me, bro.

- Why is she pissed?

- Because she's like--
I don't know.

She said--it was weird
because it was like,

when I asked her, I was like--
I literally told her--

I said--I was like,
if you feel like

I've lied to you
about anything,

I was like,
everything Aaron B. told you--

he told me what he said--

everything he told you,
I've already told you.

And like, for me,
it felt as though

he saw me as a threat,
and he thought that

that was a way
to, like, set me back.

- Brayden he was like,
oh, yeah, you just did that

because I'm competition,
and like, no, I didn't.

I did it because
I see what you're doing.

I see the patterns.

And when I did have
that chat with Charity,

and I mentioned Brayden,
she did say,

"Yeah, I did notice that things
were a little concerning."

So she's aware.

Like, that wasn't new
information I brought to her.

- Yeah.
I've told you multiple times...

- You have, yeah.

- How appreciative I am
of what you did,

because I think it gets her

to start to really focus
on which guys

are here for the right reasons.

And I mean, Brayden knows
he's done things

that have made him kind of
seem shifty at times.

- Over anything else
about this situation,

the biggest thing
that's [bleep] hard for me

is the fact that
you don't get to see her off.

She's always gonna be on.

She's always gonna be
in that role of,

like, I have to be
the Bachelorette.

I just want you to stop
being the Bachelorette

for one minute
and just be off with me.

- I have complete faith in her.

I would be shocked
if Brayden's gonna be

sticking around much longer.

- I think that Brayden
is feeling nervous.

His back's against the wall,
and I hope

Brayden doesn't make it out
this week.

He's kind of like
a loose cannon at this point.

I just don't want to see him
take time

from any of the other guys
anymore.

And Charity's time, ultimately.

- I'm a [bleep] for sure,
dude.

I know I'm a [bleep].

But I'm a [bleep] 100%.

[both laughing]

[soft music]

- If Dotun comes back
from this date with a rose,

that's one less rose for us.

- Yeah.
- And all the people here

have very strong connections,

and there's at least five of us

who haven't had
a one-on-one yet.

- You kept moving forward,
and that helps me move forward.

Yeah.
- I appreciate you for sharing.

That feels really good to hear,

and thank you
for telling me that.

- Yeah.

So I wanted to talk to you
about some things,

right, and you know, about
my roots and where I'm from.

- Yeah. Absolutely.

- And so I came to this country
when I was four.

- Mm-hmm.

- And so I don't know
if you know

how people immigrate here,

but there's a visa, right?
- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

- And so it's a random lottery.

I just, by chance,
there's only a very small

percentage of people
get picked.

And then there was this new
lottery that came out,

and my auntie saw it.

And then she just had
this feeling

and called my mom one day.

And that is literally
how I came to this country

was with just a phone call.
- Oh, my God. Wow.

- And so I think
every day, like,

what would happen--
where would I be

without that phone call
from my auntie?

- Absolutely.

- I'd be a completely
different person,

and I wouldn't be here
sitting with you...

- Mm-hmm.
- Without that phone call.

But that story shaped me,
because coming to this country,

my parents, they struggled.

And they've just really put
a lot of effort

into their lives to make me
be able to have a good life,

and I cherish that.

That's not something
I take lightly ever.

- Absolutely.

It all makes sense...
- Yeah.

Um...in the absolute best way.

And I think, like,
I relate to that

of, like,
my parents worked so hard

and did such a great job

of providing the absolute
best childhood for me.

But you know,
being in a suburban area

where there was people
that looked like me

but also not, like,
it was literally just me.

And I kind of developed this,
like, achievement-oriented

mindset that I had to be
the best

at everything that I did.

And I think when people, like,
look at me now, it's like,

it's not just this
perfectly poised girl.

Like, that's not me.

Like, I'm not.

Like, yes, I am able
to exude that energy.

But like,
I want to find my person.

I want to be a mom.

Like, there's so many
different facets of me.

And that's what I truly am
stepping and walking in

and leading by that, so...

- I see you as someone

who you can't put
into a box, right?

The world has tried
to put me into a box

my whole life, this tall guy,
and he's an athlete,

and whatever, and like,

that's what you're
supposed to act like.

into it many times,

more to you too.

It pissed me off because
you caused unnecessary drama.

he's in the hot seat.

you know, there were still

- The thing that's hard for me
that I'm not sure I could do

is, like, getting engaged

after just dating
with 20 other dudes.

I mean
I know for sure could date her

after this experience.

For me, the only thing
that's gonna be hard

is be 100% like
I can 100% get down on a knee

after this experience.

Charity everything.

Then why is she upset?

He probably didn't tell her
the whole truth.

got the First Impression Rose

that got a one-on-one,
you've had arguably

the most time that anyone
in this group and you still

have doubts about the process.

What do you still need to see?

- Again, my goal
at the end of this

was to have a connection
with a woman.

- Okay.
- And--

- I think that differs
from what Charity's goal is.

- She wants a husband,
not just a connection.

It's wasting your time.

It's wasting her time.
It's wasting everybody's time.

And you're walking around
with a rose.

It's disrespectful.

- Yeah, I don't want
to waste time,

so I will be ready to leave
if I'm not able to have

that connection with her.

I think that--I think that...

- Okay, okay.
- I might be the only one--

- Hi.

- How's it going?

- What's the conversation?

- [scoffs]

- Like, obviously
I walked in on a very heated

conversation with Brayden.

Is there something
that I don't know

or like what is the problem?

- My feedback on the whole
thing is that all of us here

are here for an engagement.

So going forward this week,
and you're getting roses

you're still not feeling
absolutely confident

that you can get down
on one knee at the end of this,

then I don't understand,
like, why people are here.

- Me too.

- When you have a rose
two weeks in a row--

the First Impression and then
you got the one-on-one--

but he's still having doubts.

he had his bags packed
