LMAO: Ep 8 Of ‘The Bachelor’ Retold Through Its Funniest Tweets
It was a tough gig to follow up last night’s Bachelor drama-fest, so the producers opted for a change in scenery to try and lighten the mood.
The Blue Mountains proved the perfect backdrop for some lovin’ on Elora’s second solo date. The self-proclaimed Tahitian Goddess got cosy with Matty while floating on a swan, before staying the night – and possibly doing sex with Matty.
Then Sharlene – a girl who has had virtually no airtime – tried to make herself relevant by getting Matty’s attention at the cocktail party. This spectacularly backfired, with her reminding him of her existence. Frustrated that she had even managed to sneak through this far without him realising, Matty told her to pack her bags. He didn’t even walk her out. Savageeeee.
As you can expect this all played out hilariously on Twitter. You clever devils, you.
The Bachelor episode 8, as told through its funniest tweets:
Matty chose Elora for a SECOND SOLO DATE. It was a random pick, as we all expected Laura or Tara to be scoring another date.
Matty- I have bought you on a date because my sister likes you (and I forgot to pash you last time)
Elora – ahhhh, ok #TheBachelorAU

Things I'd rather watch than an Elora & Matty date
– a candle burning
– a tone abet speech
– paint dry
– border security #TheBachelorAU— Courtney Gould (@heyycourtt) August 17, 2017
Tbh, viewers weren’t feeling the chemistry with Elora.
Matty: "Elora and I have so much chemistry between us"

Did the producers literally make Matty & Elora blow up this floatie because their conversation was so dull? #TheBachelorAU

Then there was another dumb group date, where the ladies spent zero time with Matty J.

It mostly became about everyone wanting to beat Elora for time with bachy.
I'm all for Flo cheating at this game if it means Elora doesn't win ???? #TheBachelorAU

Florence cheated her way to the top and Australia loved her for it.

"I like how honest you are" says Matty after Flo gives him an itemised catalogue of her dishonesty. #TheBachelorAU

Flo – I cheated
Matty – Well Im cheating on you with 21 other women so guess we're compatible after all lol— Sophie Gonzales (@ragstowriter) August 17, 2017
Flo is amazing because she is representing exactly all the Dutch people I grew up with, good and bad #TheBachelorAU

At the cocktail party, Sharlene – who is a person, that exists – got all sassy with bachy and he gave her his marching orders even before the rose ceremony.
Who, tho?

I feel bad cause I thought Sharlene was a intruder from the promos, didn't realize she was already in the house. #TheBachelorAU

In the end Matty sent three girls packing. We didn’t really care about them/ know them at all but the pain was felt deep.
"You're sending me home? But what about those 17 minutes we spent together 5 weeks ago?" #TheBachelorAU pic.twitter.com/96gGIPlybD
