The Bachelorette Season 18 “Men Tell All” is undoubtedly the best episode of the show so far. Teeming with confused exes, one pizza lover, one pizza hater, and some very shady contestants, the “Men Tell All” episode is hilarious and features some of the best catchphrases I have seen on The Bachelorette in years.

Rose lovers, this episode had quite a few cringeworthy moments, so without further ado, let’s get into it!

The Bachelorette Season 18, Episode 8: Moment #1: Dough Boy Peter Has The Last Word

Remember Peter, with the three pizza joints? Remember how he threw Will’s jacket into the pool, causing him to burst into tears? The two of them enter a heated argument where Will continues to reinforce that Peter is a narcissist, while the latter accuses him of dropping one-star reviews on his restaurant.

Now, I don’t think Will is immature enough to go through with it, but after the last review said that Peter’s pizza tasted like “pool water,” I’m pretty convinced it was him. They argue for what feels like an eternity before Peter drops the curtain on his last big act: slamming Will with a subpoena.

An actor-for-hire (I’m telling you he wasn’t a lawyer) walks out from backstage and presents Will with a blank piece of paper, which he tears into shreds. What’s more pathetic is that for a mere moment, Will seemed to look scared.

 The Bachelorette Season 18, Episode 8: Moment #2: Jamie Is Still Annoying

I think Jamie really needs to sit down and have a nice long chat with himself. Maybe watch The Bachelorette and see how unbelievable he looks on TV. He is a master manipulator who lies to everyone’s face and somehow got away with it for weeks. He had the guys fooled, he tried to fool Michelle, but she saw through him before things got worse. In this episode, Jamie continues to lie repeatedly, and answer every question by beginning with “Good question.”

I wish I could say his answers were good answers. Except that they weren’t answers — because all he does is lie and exploit his way out of everything. He insists on talking about Michelle because everyone else at the time was doing it already, despite having created a rumor and allowing it to snowball into a false narrative. Get rid of him, please. And do not, I repeat, do not put him on Paradise.

 The Bachelorette Season 18, Episode 8: Moment #4: Tayshia’s Opens Up About Zac

Right before Rodney can come up for his moment, Kaitlyn asks Tayshia to talk about why she’s not wearing an engagement ring. The former Bachelorette is frazzled at the question, and she looks beyond uncomfortable. yet, Tayshia says she’s heartbroken and they tried really hard, but she still loves Zac and doesn’t know what the future holds.

When Rodney finally comes up, she emotionally runs off backstage, and Kaitlyn announces that they’re going to let Tayshia have a minute. It’s so random and unnecessary–I get that the producers want to up the ante on the drama bit, but seeing Tayshia uncomfortable makes the viewer uncomfortable and well that’s no fun for anyone now is it?

Next. Who went home on The Bachelorette this week? (Season 18, Episode 7). dark
