This is like a children's book. She said he waits for her and finally she says why?

He could just smile at her, but I can see why he wouldn't want to do that. It's not his best look.

Guys, I think I went to the bathroom during this part.

Oh my god. This is really cool.

It's just the most important part of the entire episode.

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.

So, or back in paradise, love triangles were created, some fell apart.

A rainbow flag was flown.

I just feel like I'm neck deep in Bachelor's surf right now.

I don't know how to get back to shore.

The crabs are just crawling all over you.

Is it a good thing or am I terrified both both mostly terrified, but we have 19 pages of notes

four hours of TV to dive into.

And we have a very special guest here to help us with that.

Friend of the pod, Erin, dark.
