2. Luke P.

Luke P. was not here to play this week. Whether his intentions were genuine or not ( and we’ve definitely considered both of those options), he was full of smart strategy and more than a few power moves. Let’s consider his winning plays, shall we?

During the Mr. Right Pageant, this former first impression rose winner slayed in his speedo. Even the other men commented that he was putting them all to shame. Afterward—despite not actually displaying a talent—Luke P. locked in his win by dropping the L bomb on the Bachelorette.

What’s even crazier is that Hannah totally went with it. She was smitten, he kissed her and all the other men looked shocked as all get out.

After the pageant, Luke P. was once again the first to “steal” Hannah during cocktails. Another smart strategy, if not one that I kind of wish she’d see through. Too bad her face basically looks like the Bachelorette version of the heart eye emoji. Despite some reservations that she expressed during their one on one time, she still smiled through all of her comments and seemed to desperately want him to say the right thing. He may not have taken home the group date rose, but it’s clear she still has him on her radar.
