The Bachelor Season 25, Episode 6: Dramatic moment #2:
The last OG finally found herself alone, and her fate wasn’t at all different from the other two OGs. Bye, M.J.
Episode 6 resumed with the continuation of the Episode 5 cliff hanger of Jessenia and M.J.’s mini two-on-one. M.J., having finally been exposed for her toxic ways, ended the prior episode projecting upon Jessenia.
It was more of the same to start this newest episode. Victoria and Anna were clearly the most toxic women on this season of The Bachelor and the most toxic that I’ve seen since starting with Hannah Brown’s season, but M.J. was just behind those two. If Victoria and Anna were Elsa and Anna then M.J. and Serena C. were… I don’t know, non-speaking extras.
M.J. and Jessenia started feuding because it came out that, when asked by Matt, Jessenia named M.J. as someone who had torn down other women in the house—100% a fact. M.J. acted like Jessenia had made up some vicious lie about her, and over the course of their two-on-one, broke down.
Jessenia told Matt about how M.J. was a bully during their time together on the two-on-one, but she made sure to emphasize how she was there for him and hoped he was doing OK with the whole situation. M.J., who blamed her breakdown on “weak b— energy”, cried to Matt about how big her heart is and how he needed a wife who preached peace and harmony and who doesn’t tear others down. So, not M.J.
M.J. projected hardcore onto Jessenia, realizing she had nowhere to hide from her lies at this point, and Matt ended up choosing to keep Jessenia around. He walked a terse M.J. to the car outside, and the ensuing drama ensued throughout the rest of the episode.
As a two-episode drama, Episode 6 held the aftermath and, I don’t want to say remnants, but the aftershock of the previous episode’s drama. M.J. was exposed a little later than Victoria and Anna, but she was sent home after a series of lies, bullying, and projecting onto someone else. We’ll see ya, too, M.J.
