Tonight’s ‘The Bachelor’ Retold Via Hilarious Tweets
For a The Bachelor episode that followed one contestant calling another a “c*nt“, you would have hoped for more drama to have played out tonight.
But alas, aside from Holly briefly addressing the argument at the beginning of the episode, there was very little talk of #c*ntgate. Instead, the woman who dropped the C-Bomb, Steph, got to spend some time with Jimmy, as she was picked for the solo date to go in a flight simulator. This sounds like a terribly boring date to me, but Steph seemed to vibe it — as we know, she is rather knowledgable about piloting after all! Jimmy and Steph were actually cute together, with Steph getting a rose and a pash.
The group date had Jimmy topless on the beach donning yellow speedos for a lifesaving challenge. Jimmy invited his mate, Finn, to head up two teams of women competing to win a rose from Jimmy. Finn was most charmed by Tatum, a contestant apparently on this show. Holly swallowed saltwater during the swimming task which led to her being seen by a medic, while Tatum got very suspicious that Holly was playing up her illness just to get Jimmy’s attention.
It’s hard to know whether Holly really was unwell or not, but it did remind me of the time I said I couldn’t swim in the ocean on a school camp because I didn’t have my asthma puffer, then my teacher reminded me I didn’t have asthma.
That’s still not the point, Mr. Cogan!
Tonight’s The Bachelor retold via hilarious tweets:
Another week of Bachy is here! Holly is trying to move on from the c*nt drama, and she says she plans to avoid Steph. Lucky for her (but also unlucky), Steph got picked to leave the mansion on a solo date with Jimmy.
Holly "There was a little bit of drama between Steph and I"

Steph: the fact he's a pilot is super triggering
Steph after getting a single date: omg i love planes love pilots love joysticks love cockpits watch me fly #TheBachelorAU

They go in a flight simulator, they flirt up a storm, then a disaster hits the (fake) flight but Jimmy helps Steph land the plane safely. Jimmy asked Steph if she has reservations about dating a pilot again, but she assured him she won’t judge him based on past experiences. They share a kiss and Steph got a rose.
Why does Jimmy insist on women seeing what “he’s like at work”? I don’t even like how I am at work. #thebachelorau pic.twitter.com/aoZVtXG9wn

Jimmy: "I wanna find out more about you"
Steph: "Just follow my twitch, links in bio, dropped my discord link in the chat, make sure you like and subscribe"

The group date saw all the women meet a bunch of lifesavers at the beach, including Jimmy and his friend Finn who both volunteer. They competed in a relay with a series of lifesaver drills.

if a man took me on a date and it turned out to be some competition like this i would gladly tell him that it's a no from me and get some fish and chips #TheBachelorAU

Holly swallowed saltwater while competing so she got taken to see a medic. Sounds fake but OK! Tatum suspected Holly was milking it to get more attention from Jimmy.
“This is a lot harder than I initially anticipated.” – me about basically anything. #thebachelorau

When you’re hoping for mouth-to-mouth from Jimmy and get shoved in a Hyundai Tucsun to the hospital. Well, that didn’t exactly go to plan… #TheBachelorAU

After consulting his mate, Finn, Jimmy chose Tatum as the challenge winner and she received a rose.
Tatum. From zero mentions in 4.5 episodes to winning extra time on a group date. Dream, believe, achieve people! #TheBachelorAU

For no explicable reason in 2021, the girls dressed up as their “spirit animal” for the cocktail party. Big yikes. Channel 10, do better!
Ooooh “spirit animal” is incredibly cringe… I thought we left this behind in 2008 #TheBachelorAU
— Natalie (@nati_gilbi) August 4, 2021
Producers have forced this “spirit animal” thing so that people (like me) will tweet about how it’s cultural appropriation. I hate it! #TheBachelorAU

the THEME is spirit animals?!?!?! tell me white people run your show without telling me white people run your show #TheBachelorAU

At the rose ceremony, Elena is left without a rose. We hardly knew thee.
What an absolutely normal thing to wear #TheBachelorAU pic.twitter.com/rvpLKPmdyJ

Nothing worse than going home in an Uber alone, than going home in an Uber alone dressed as a grizzly bear. #TheBachelorAU
