So Dean is, you know, he's like, listen.

I like two girls. They both deserve better.

But I will not, but I'm doing nothing about it.

Welcome to Here to Make Friends, a half-post podcast about the Bachelor franchise,

where we lovingly snark on the Bachelor and Bachelor adjacent shows.

Whether you love the Bachelor or love to hate it,

we're here to break down every single delicious moment with you.

I'm Emma Gray, and I'm Claire Fallon.

Last night, Bachelor on Paradise, I would say really graduated to the high school level,

and not in a good way.

We all saw, like, last week, I'm losing track of time,

but there was all that middle school petting-ness with Kristen and the rude nicknames.

This week, we got a sort of more mature form of misbehavior.

The, like, entitled blonde cheerleaders who think they rule the school

and just stomp all over everyone when they don't get their way.

Basically, the twins Emily and Haley showed up

went after exactly two of the least available men in Paradise,

and then had a shared meltdown when they got rejected.

It's really sweet how they share everything.

We also saw the Christina, Dean, and Danielle Triangle just completely blow up,

which was a long time coming, but it was a lot to handle.

I almost forgot that that happened this week.
