The Bachelor Recap The Women Tell all About Arie Krystal and Bekah
, "Heartbreak sucks," said Tia. She teared up watching her own sob story, and gracefully dabbed her eyes. She was in love with Arie and even re-watching her experience edited for television, she still doesn't understand why Arie chose Kendall over her. Chris Harrison casually asked her if she's ready to love again, clearly testing the waters for an entire season of The Bachelorette set in Tia's hometown of Weiner, Arkansas. Tia said she is ready to go on her journey for love, but Chris Harrison cagily didn't extend an offer, instead waiting to convene a focus group on Tia before agreeing to anything. They've learned their lesson after forcing their audience to suffer through entire seasons of Farmer Chris and, well, Arie. When Arie stepped on the stage, the women either fixed their steely gazes on him, or fluffed their hair and leaned in. Arie told Tia it was him not her. Then Jacqueline defended Arie for calling her dreams of a PhD an obstacle and Arie applauded her for ending their relationship to follow her dreams. Arie confessed that Bekah's age scared him off and she admitted that she was more of a risk than the other women, because she's probably not ready to get hitched. Then Chris Harrison decided to give Krystal more airtime, inviting her on stage. She told Arie that she thought their departure was pretty cold. Arie disagrees, though "I feel it was pretty appropriate." Then he and Krystal rehashed the Great Bowling War of 2018 and everyone in the audience fell asleep until Krystal said she was mad that her boyfriend was dating other women and Arie laughed, "This is The Bachelor!" Then Krystal apologized for calling Arie this and Chris Harrison calmly informed her that Arie never heard that clip. RIP, Krystal. , The most exciting moment of the entire show was when Caroline, who was apparently on this show, rose from the crowd, pointed a finger at Arie and like some truth-speaking sibyl declares "I know what you did and I don't know how you could do that." Then she settled back into her seat and no one acknowledge what happened and no one explained what that meant, but suddenly the finale seems much more exciting.
