I'm Claire Fallon and I'm Emma Gray and this is Love to See It, an obsessively detailed

recap podcast about reality dating shows like The Bachelor and other pop culture that makes us laugh, cry, and curse the patriarchy.

We can't live with these shows and we can't live without them, but we can break down every juicy moment and unpack all the weird messages these shows send us about love, sex, and dating.

Welcome to Love to See It, a show where we finally get to the bottom of an important scientific question everyone seems to be asking these days. Is it ching low level pain or is it a whole different thing?

Just wait, we do in fact have an answer to this burning question. Also this week on Paradise Eliza chases after Justin some new women hit the sand, Gabby and Rachel dish some dirt and Becca and Thomas throw a Sadie Hawkins dance.

Women's equality is like so important and I think this was the perfect way to capture that on the beach. We're back to two episodes this week.

We're just so happy to have more content before we get started. I do want to say to everyone who has been messaging us about love is blind that we are covering love is blind season three on our other podcast and newsletter rich text and you can find that coverage at Claire and Emma dot sub stack dot com.

So much emotional devastation on so many franchises. Yeah, so let's get back to the task. Yes, speaking of emotional devastation it's time to resolve the Justin Eliza situation.

Rodney and Eliza have just left paradise after lies at dumped him to pursue Justin the mood on the beach is somber it's really really somber. I mean Brandon is not okay. Brandon is literally like taking a mournful walk to the beach to grieve like alone in a private space together where they can find comfort in each other's arms Andrews and tears.

Everone is just lying around like they've been physically stunned by this news.

Brandon is with serene sobbing into her smooth glowing neck and being like this man deserves love more than anyone Rodney's husband material he doesn't need a woman who sees a shiny object and runs to it.

That's the lesson Eliza will learn. I mean, I think she just wasn't the one for Rodney Brandon your buds going to be okay he's out here in LA.

I think his DMs are probably overflowing. He'll find his person is going to be a wonderful partner soon to the right woman and if Eliza wasn't that woman she has every right to want to date someone else instead correct and that doesn't make her like a magpie or something.

Serene tries to comfort Brandon by saying like he actually deserves someone who will know when they meet him and won't be curious about any other guys and he's going to find that person and Brandon cradles serene and his manly arms like I'm so thankful for you you're the most beautiful thing in this dark place.

I love you I'm never gonna stop loving you I like how they're not even trying to like keep us guessing as to whether these two are going to get engaged they're just like obviously we all know it will be happening.

I love that also paradise has just fully become hell like no one is happy even the people who are the happiest are unhappy they're like it's not that we're in paradise the perfect place to find love it's that we're in the hopeless place and we found love in the hopeless place and like good for us like that.

It's the thing you did despite all of the forces being against you yeah despite being miserable constantly battling depression and pain.

It was also the natural elements exactly and so Eliza is on her way and a hilarious to me in the moment Kate is like I hope Eliza feels a weight lifted.

She leaves alone but she leaves with integrity.

She's always got that integrity Eliza meanwhile she is just wandering the streets of Baltimore in her white busier top and jeans she arrives at Justin's door and he opens his door in his soft shorts and t-shirt and looks.

Confused yeah he sort of smiles eventually and welcomes her and but he doesn't seem that excited.

And his in the moment he's like seeing her was like seeing a ghost like happy but I'm confused he doesn't look happy.
