Bachelor in Paradise Season 7, Episode 3: Best and worst moments

By Julia Wagner

BACHELOR IN PARADISE - “703” – With the shocking first rose ceremony in the past, it’s time for some fresh faces to walk down the sunny Paradise steps. Who will be the first to join our sexy singles on the beach? It’s going to be … our new guest host, Lance Bass! The excitement continues as more men arrive looking to get lucky in love, but the excitement quickly fades when the newcomers throw everything into disarray, reigniting old feuds and breaking apart new bonds. Chemistry may bring these couples together, but it may also cause them to combust on “Bachelor in Paradise,” TUESDAY, AUG. 24 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC. (ABC/Craig Sjodin)SERENA P., THOMAS

Tuesday night’s episode of Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 featured a new host in the form of Lance Bass and the arrival of more men, including a former “villain!” The girls had the roses this episode, so the guys had to scramble to couple up with girls they “barely know,” as James so aptly put it.

There were quite a few moments that stood out (or not so much) from this week’s second episode, so let’s get right into them below!

Bachelor in Paradise Season 7, Episode 3: Worst moment: Thomas’s arrival

Thomas’s arrival was my least favorite moment of episode 3, but not because I don’t like him! I’ve been a Thomas defender for a while now. I cannot for the life of me figure out what he did so wrong on Katie’s season. Doesn’t everyone come onto this show partially for the platform? Wouldn’t most people want to be the Bachelor?

Thomas was called a “snake,” a “trash person,” and a “manipulator” by the men before his arrival. Give me a break. Nothing like insane accusations without evidence!

In any case, despite the reaction to his arrival being infuriating, Thomas’s arrival is quite hilarious. He was unbelievably cordial, but the men were beside themselves while the women mostly thought he was hot.

Here’s hoping Thomas’s time on Bachelor in Paradise Season 7 will redeem his “villain” reputation!

Bachelor in Paradise Season 7, Episode 3: Best moment: Lance Bass Girl Chat

I loved Lance Bass as the host. Not only did it provide the opportunity for various N’Sync puns, he actually seemed to take his role host pretty seriously while managing to be hilarious at the same time. He acted as a mentor/friend/therapist rather than simply a host, kicking things off with a mimosa-fueled girl chat.

I loved when he said, “I need to know what’s really going down.” I got a kick out of seeing him analyze the women’s responses with comments like, “you seem a little reserved about that…”

I loved watching a host get more involved. Who wouldn’t want to open up about their relationship to an iconic 90s pop star?
