S25.E07: Week 7

[ByTor]

Quote

With hometowns on the horizon, Matt and the remaining women all take a serious look at their potential future together, resulting in more than a few difficult decisions. Former cast member Heather Martin isn’t the only source of drama during this jam-packed week that includes two one-on-one dates, a group date, two rose ceremonies and a performance by GRAMMY®-nominated artist Aloe Blacc.

Airs Monday, February 15 at 8:00 PM EST.

As always, this is a spoiler-free topic. If it didn't happen in this episode, please do not discuss.

Most hilarious line of the season. So far anyway:

Matt to Heather: "Obviously, we've never met."

[tennisgurl]

Truly a shocking and emotional night...shocking that this show is getting this desperate for stupid drama. 

“Talk about it in the interview I don’t want to see your tears right now.” *Cut to Heather crying in interview* 

[alexa]

And she is shocked they are less than thrilled?  She has been on the show, she knows it is competitive.

[Crashcourse]

Heather:  Almost every other word was "like."  Literally.

[dizzyd]

“Bachelor hopping”, perfect! Heather deserved everything the ladies dished out at her and I don’t care if that’s mean girls. Her appearance is just another piece of scripted crap. And idk if she was thanking HB for encouraging her to do this or blaming her for her late arrival. Gosh I hope we don’t get a full dose of HB now. Matt told Piper 2 minutes but he lied. 

Are they going to address the CH problem?

This show is just getting worse and worse. All of the girls this season are such mean people, I can't really root for any of them except maybe Abigail and Michelle. They should have all just completely ignored Heather, if he actually likes any of them then she won't make a difference except to make herself look silly. No point in being so rude and bullying such an obvious stupid producer plant. You just make yourself look bad. 

As for Heather, she can leave ASAP. Such a stupid staged "intrusion" and a waste of time.

[Crashcourse]

Like...like Matt like didn't like seem too like thrilled to like see Heather.  Literally.

[saber5055]

My solution for Heather: Just go back home and wait for Matt's season to be over. He'll be single then and you can date him all you want. Except cameras won't be on you, and that's a problem for famewhores, so there's that.

If Matt heard all about Heather from Hannah, then why didn't they get together then.

So much BS. Even the script writers suck this season.

Drinking game: Down one every time the word "heart" is said.

[DEL901]

LOL that Matt keeps being amazed at the sacrifice she made by renting a MINIVAN!   

[saber5055]

The show gave her a mini van to drive? LMAO!

[tennisgurl]

Oh damn, Matt sent her ass packing. That’s the only call that doesn’t make him look like a total ass, and good for him, but it also makes this whole Heather thing even more pointless than it already has been.

[Thumper]

Driving away in the minivan in her fancy gown!  And then she cries about him??!!!   Drama!!!  😂😂😂

[DEL901]

It was crazy to think she could join this late in the season.  If she felt that strongly and wasn’t a producer plant, then crash earlier.  

[LakeGal]

Heather just gave her Bachelorette audition. 

[saber5055]

I guess Heather spending two hours in "qurantine" was all for nothing. So sad.

[tennisgurl]

Heather’s gives the worlds saddest Bachelorette audition. 

[TheFinalRose]

All that peacocking, dancing in her hotel room alone, and filming in the minivan only to get ripped apart by the coven and dumped by Matt.

Watching her drive away in the minivan made this whole charade worth it. 

[alexa]

That is the right outcome.  You know what Hannah really said was, you should go on the Bachelor and try to steal him from the women!  Won’t that be fun?!

But it managed to kill, what, two hours or more over two episodes? Mission accomplished, filler for one of the worst seasons EVAH.

[RealHousewife]

Too much mean girl with most of the “OG” contestants. Hate the game, not the player. 

[JenE4]

Ok, I was catching up on the Harrison drama in the media thread and didn’t realize I missed 20 minutes of the show! So, I see Heather went home. Did she face the wrath of the women directly, or did she just have her talk with Matt and he walked her directly out?

She faced the wrath and they were ugly to her no surprise

Maybe she'll take her van and go live down by the river after this humiliating turn on The Bachelor.

[tennisgurl]

Hahahahaha Heather proceeds to take her fancy dress and live in a VAN down by the RIVER!

Honestly I think they asked all the right questions, and at this point in a competition she knows all about, she had no right coming in and interrupting.  I think what they said is pretty much what everyone is thinking about her coming.  And they were honest.

[Adeejay]

Sorry to see Chelsea go.  She seemed nice.  However, I am glad Serena C. has gone bye, bye.  I am doing a happy dance.  

[rdg]

6-7 weeks and there has been so little time between Matt and the ladies.  What in the what do they do with all the time????  I do not blame the women for being pissed off about lack of 'face-time' and the addition of more women.  Worst producers ever!!!!!!!

Lots of younger people and hell older people are living in vans. Show just did her a solid. But ugh the scripted bs. And that peeper girl can shut right up. 

[dizzyd]

Is the Topher show like Unreal? Complete with bachelor handshake.

Yep, questioning is fine but I just hate the lack of basic human decency this season. So many of these people are genuinely nasty to one another, I would hate to be living in the mansion with them! Every time I think one of them isn't so bad then she says something rude and mean and I have to check another one off the list. Usually there are a few "villains" but also some genuinely likeable or sweet contestants, but I'm having a ton of trouble finding anyone halfway decent this season. You can be honest while still being kind or polite IMO. I just came away from that thinking that Heather was a stupid waste of time, but also that the "OG" girls are genuinely pretty mean. 

I sound ancient, I swear I'm in my 20s! These girls just scare the crap out of me 😂

[Mu Shu]

Oh my god his pencil legs. 

[Crashcourse]

OMG I would have so farted doing those tantric yoga exercises with him! 😱 

[saber5055]

Oh, man, Matt's bird legs are skinnier than Serena's. They are like toothpicks.

Waiting for the "privacy towel" to be tossed over Matt's crotch during that yoga session. Then such weird editing ... in the middle of yoga, next scene sitting on a couch talking. Talk about a time warp.

[tennisgurl]

Oh wow, she’s so not into this, it’s kind of amazing how honest she’s being. Poor thing, she’ll probably lose her rose because she wasn’t being “vulnerable” in wanting to do sex poses on national television. 

[JenE4]

A second one-on-one?!?! Oooh! Abigail wonders “where Matt’s head is at.” Obviously not on you! Ah, the standard “guru” date. Serena is not letting him kiss her! She could potentially blow her chance at making it to hometowns—unless he’s drawn to her playing hard to get.

[ellaa]

Oop, she don't like him

I would too! Sorry Matt someone’s baking brownies. 
This was gross and creepy.

I'm guessing there's a lot of offscreen time he spends with them that we just don't see.

[EllenB]

I kinda love Serena P for hating that date and moving her head back when he went in for one of his fish kisses. But he looked bored when he was full-body hugging her after she wouldn't smooch him.

So in other words, this episode is just like all the others.

[TheFinalRose]

Love Serena's honesty. It was awkward and uncomfortable, despite her amazingly flexible body.  And she turned down his fish lip kiss. 

[dizzyd]

Chelsea looked amazing! Love Serena P. Such a breath of fresh air.

Chelsea is especially beautiful.

[tennisgurl]

The dates in general have gotten stupider and creepier over the seasons. Some of that is COVID restrictions but it’s been going on for awhile now, like they aren’t dates so much as hazing rituals that are going to get your frat kicked off of campus. 

[Adeejay]

"You received the first impression rose and yet, you haven't had a one-on-one.  That must be awful."  I hope Abigail is aware that's a back handed complement and that Kit is being a snake.

That’s what I was wondering since Hannah, Tyler and Matt are on the nominating committee apparently.  She literally failed her audition, like really, really, bad. 

[JenE4]

Serena is too honest for this show: This tantric yoga date was terrible, and it’s bizarre that I actually like you and want you to meet my parents.

[RealHousewife]

I like Heather. She’s adorable and there’s a sweetness to her that’s lacking in the franchise.
