S06.E02: Week 1, Part 2

[OnceSane]

Quote

Kristina wants an explanation from Blake before she considers rekindling their relationship; the women scramble ahead of the rose ceremony, which will see three of them sent home.

Airs August 6, 2019.

[leighdear]

I will be definitely muting my set whenever Caelynn is on.  I can't take the constant whining.  

[CindyBee]

I'm hear for Blake's faux season of the bachelor being exposed

[leighdear]

Oneyanka (?) is going to have a horrible mess of hair extensions by the time they're done.  Bad decision for her to keep them.  

We've seen several seasons of shredded heads.  These women need to learn.  

[SallyAlbright]

I genuinely find Blake really unattractive - one of the worst looking guys there, in fact. It's the square Frankenstein's monster head, flat face and thick neck. He was whiny and annoying on Becca's season and now seems to think he's hot stuff. Ack.

Caelynn is annoying and whiny - go talk to someone else about anything but Blake, or go home. 

Tayshia, Hannah and Kristina are still pretty. All have great figures, too.

Who the fuck is Jane? I don't even know who she is and she's still managed to annoy me. 

[leighdear]

Caelyn looks like Miley Cyrus to me.  

[CindyBee]

All these girls thinking Blake is the one is indeed a great mystery

[leighdear]

Jeez, these girls are walking into one-night stands with their LEGS wide open.  Why do they think a night of boinking is a relationship?  Did we magically time-travel back to the 1950's where sex = love? 

[JenE4]

Blake (on sleeping with Caelynn the day after sleeping with Kristina): I made my bed, and I’ll lie in it.

Kristina: Did you even change the sheets?

*dead*

Currently the line of the season!

[Kiss my mutt]

Blake getting all defensive saying he shouldn’t have to apologize which while true, he can’t expect everyone to agree and be okay with it. 

I think my good will towards Blake will be nil by the end of the summer. 

I don’t remember June either. I have never thought Caelynn to be very pretty or a reasonably nice person and Hannah seems like a dud. Maybe she’s just shy but I haven’t heard her speak very often and doesn’t seem very articulate. 

[leighdear]

I'm loving the Greek Chorus of Wells.  He knows so much about what's gone on the past couple of seasons, he's a great resource for info.  

Plus, I think he's The cutest guy on the island.  Til our little gold-shorts wearing Jordan shows up!  *LOL*

[CindyBee]

All right, enough of this.   Lets get back to the beach and see some of the other people.  Annalaise is probably stalking someone and we are missing it

[alexa]

Wow, Blake is all kinds of jerk.  Wow, he hid all that...who knew he was such a pig.

Notice he didnt answer so I guess that's a No. Ewwww.

I get that Blake was single but the fact that he told Caelynn not to speak about their hook up is what is bothering me the most.  

Hahaha, he thinks Kristina is out to ruin his paradise.  If he only knew what's coming

[leighdear]

Yep, muted.  All I see is Caelyn gesturing and Blake looking dumbfounded.

I don't know if I'm going to be able to hang with this.  30 minutes of nothing but these 2.  And obviously more to come.

I think Calynn’s previous sexual assault makes her extra vulnerable.   He is someone she trusted and him telling her not to talk about them made her feel like crap.    Hannah dodged a bullet when he was interested in her in the last show bot took Tayshia on the date. 

[JenE4]

You know someone is going to create some 9-box gif compilation of Blake reaction shots. He is DUMBFOUNDED that these girls that he spoke to multiple times a day for months and then slept with before promptly dumping had feelings for him and thought they were developing a relationship. Granted, seems like Caelynn was giving him the old “you should have read my mind that quietly agreeing meant I was silently devastated,” but still. There were TWO of them he did the same thing to! And then he was also messaging Tayshia and Hannah at the time—and THEY both came in looking to match up with him, too.

[CindyBee]

Wills is like "dude, you are in trouble"

[DEL901]

Is Blake trying to squeeze out a tear?

[GracieK]

It’s so interesting seeing this conversation between Kristina and Blake juxtaposed against Hannah’s season and her insistence that sleeping around was an acceptable part of the “process” because they weren’t committed. I’m on Kristina’s side here btw.. not being in a relationship doesn’t mean that it feels good when your good friend sleeps with you and then fucks another woman less than 24 hours later.  And if Caelynn’s side is to be believed he’s lying when he says they both decided afterwards that it was a mistake. If you did nothing wrong then you don’t need to lie about or misrepresent the other side.

For Kristina’s part.. why did you even bother wasting your date card to give this schmuck a lecture.

I think Blake is a tool, but we also have to keep in mind that the two people “devastated” by Blake waited until a nationally televised reality show to confront him. I’m not sure I trust any of these people’s versions of events. 

Both Caelyn and Kristina have pasts that Blake should be sensitive to, but it’s also pretty clear that neither one expressed any of these types of thoughts to Blake prior to this show. You’re right, Caelyn’s version is that she, “Went silent and said, ‘sure’.” Which apparently meant all this pent up feelings?

Then she needs to stop deliberately putting herself in emotionally dangerous situations where she has NO control.

I will NEVER EVER blame the victim, but therapy towards wellness should be her goal, not social media & reality show popularity.   

[DEL901]

I think the difference with a Hannah B is that her suitors (well, except for Luke P) knew the rules of engagement.   Blake just comes off as a player whose partners are all like the ghosts of Christmas past and haunting him in Paradise.   

[Stan39]

I don’t like Blake, but you have to admit his version of conversations with Caelyn make more sense. What’s more likely, you have a one night stand and say, “This was a mistake”, then later, “Let’s not bring it up unless we have to” or “YOU were a mistake” and “You can’t talk about what happened. You need to lie about this”? There’s just no reason to make second group of statements. 

[GracieK]

I agree with those who think that Caelynn’s past trauma is playing a part in how she feels. This type of environment is probably not healthy for anyone but especially not someone who has been gang raped. I can’t imagine how you wouldn’t be vulnerable in sexual encounters and interactions with men. While I think understanding that and the responsibility for it goes beyond Blake’s pay grade, it is still really shitty that he was FaceTiming her multiple times a day, considering ditching paradise for a chance to date her culminating in sleeping together after which he promptly wants nothing to do with her romantically anymore. And they get to Paradise and he barely acknowledges her with a hello. 24 year old me gets that kind of hurt to that sort of rejection. He’s a douche.

Yeah, he seemed genuinely dumbfounded (even more than usual). I think he's an idiot, but his version makes sense if he just thought they were friends who hooked up. I do think Caelynn has some understandable issues, but perhaps this franchise isn't the best idea for her. She was pretty devastated and hysterical for someone trying to casually date and hook up in paradise. 

[leighdear]

I just can't get over these girls with the greasy lank hair, the sweaty shiny faces, and the HUGE fake eyelashes and frosted eyeshadow.  *ROFL*  So strange!

Agree that Wills hair is ridic.  And the shots of him frolicking in the pool showed a serious jelly-belly & flabby pecs.  Wasn't he Mr. Fashion on Becca's season, and sported a floral man-romper one episode?

[leighdear]

They pan to John Paul Jones and I see the late Keith Ledger.  Til he opens his mush mouth & blows it all.  

Clay is a doll.  I'd buy him as the next Bachelor.  Ex-football player is fine, but without the boring virgin shtick of Colton.   Nicole is really cute with him.

[DEL901]

Poor Bibiana.   She totally couldn’t read the room with Clay.  

Eta and now she is delusional 

Edited August 7, 2019 by DEL901

[Stan39]

I think I missed something, when has Bibiana been vulnerable? She’s had one conversation with one guy on three seasons of this show and can’t handle the guy going on a date with another girl?

They should have a policy that these people need to have a ROMANTIC connection to stay on this show. No friendships or strategic alliances to keep people around who are just going to lay by the pool or order drinks. Half of these people should go home tomorrow instead of just one woman.

It is 3 going home. 

[JenE4]

Bibiana wears body glitter? Oh, honey. No.

[leighdear]

Annaliese really needs to consider bangs.   And she actually HEARD Clay say those things to Angela?  I doubt it.  

[DEL901]

Did Annaliese come on Paradise just to cockblock Clay?

[leighdear]

Nice analogy, Demi!   I'm liking this girl's view on this.  

[Ripley68]

Right now I"m kind of loving Demi.

Blake did look flabbergasted by Caelynn...Still don't like him - didn't like him with Becca so it's nothing new.

[DEL901]

Did Jane poison JPJ with hot sauce?

[bosawks]

I can never seem to reconcile Clay’s voice with the rest of Clay.

I think it’s because he sounds like one of my theology professors in college.

[JenE4]

Annalise thinks that she saw the “fumes coming off Clay that he was caught”? Uh, no. He was perfectly composed. You want to see a guy reacting to being “caught,” see Blake. Clay passes the Right Reasons test. Demi has it right that Annalise is a bad judge of a man’s character—but we already knew that.

[Stan39]

On tonight’s episode of, “I’m going to ambush a guy on national tv and tell him he’s a scumbag when he has no idea what I’m talking about” aka Bachelor in Paradise. Is this what this season is going to be about? BIP is supposed to be a fun, stupid show about dumb people hooking up. I don’t want to watch arguments between people where the audience doesn’t know what happened. All of this is just a case of He Said She Said. This show is better when we have the video of who’s full of crap and who’s telling the truth. 

[leighdear]

Wow, Blake has really tapped into his emotionally overwrought, 13 year-old girl self.  

[JenE4]

Blake needs to go into hiding?! His life is over? Well, okay, we just saw what Jed went through, so maybe. It’s okay, Blake, it’s Paradise. You’re allowed to be a hoochie heartbreaker. We’re Here for the Wrong Reasons. 

[GracieK]

Omg stfu Annalise. I cannot stand her. You weren’t in the relationship with Clay so it’s ultimately none of your business. And the dig about not getting picked up by a team was below the belt.  Seriously go back to your corner and cry about how no one wants to marry you.. because it’s SUCH a big mystery.

[DEL901]

Cam is sooooooooo lucky Caelynn needs a rose. 

[SallyAlbright]

Demi has Annaliese absolutely pegged. Funny. 

[Kiss my mutt]

I know, Blake, why don’t you cry some more until all is forgiven. I don’t think I can a whole season of his crying. 

[alexa]

Poor Blake...here he thought he did all the right things, but it didn’t work somehow.  Oh dear.  What he really is thinking is, how do I convince America I am not a player?

[JenE4]

Caelynn waits until 15 minutes before the rose ceremony to be like, oh, damn, I spent 2-3 days trash-talking Blake that forgot to talk to any guys about anything else. Now she’s stuck with the dregs of Cam. Idiot. 

[alexa]

JPJ is a freak.  On another note, I have gotten used to Love Island where they don’t kiss right away.  This show kissing comes before hello.
