The Bachelor this week featured two group dates and one one-on-one date, which was determined by Chris Soules‘ three sisters.

The Bachelor Recap

For the first group date, it’s Megan, Kaitlyn, Ashley S. Ashley I. Julia, Samantha, Mackenzie and Kelsey. “Let’s do what feels natural…” reads the date card, though they’re still putting in extensions and makeup. Chris drives them out to a lake. There, they go paddle boarding, lounge on rafts, throw back some beers – and some go skinny dipping. “My face is getting skinner because I spend so much time fake smiling,” says Kelsey, who admits she’s ready to call it quits.

Things only get worse for Kelsey when she learns that they’re all going to be camping. Ashley I. points out that she’s not just a virgin virgin, she’s a camping virgin as well. At night the girls and Chris grill over a campfire. Kaitlyn gets some time alone with Kaitlyn and the two take advantage of the time to get to know what they need in a relationship. When she gets back, Kelsey gets some time with Chris. While she’s away all the girls make fun of her laugh and call her out on being fake and proceed to drink copious amounts of tequila and whiskey. Ashley S., with her inhibitions down, tearfully tells Chris that she loves everything about him. In the end, it’s Kaitlyn who gets the group date rose.

Back at the mansion, the three sisters show up and meet the girls who aren’t out on the date. Jillian had been sleeping out by the pool, and is embarrassed that the sisters are seeing her half asleep and  is worried that she’s already lost her chance at earning the sister’s approval and the lone one-on-one date. During Carly’s interview with the sisters, she opens up about never being treating well by a guy. However, it was Jade who won the sister’s over with her entrepreneurial spirit and gets to attend a “royal ball” with Chris.

Jade gets a team of people to prepare her for her Cinderella date with Chris and get outfitted in a gown and glass Louboutins. The two smile and laugh throughout their date and get in at least one romantic ballroom dance. Jade gets her rose from Chris, but ultimately has to leave at the stroke of midnight. While Jade was at the date, Ashley I., who told Chris she was a virgin the night before, is devastated that there’s a princess date and she’s not on it. She’d brought a gown with her for exactly that occasion.

For the second group date, Nikki, Jillian, Whitney, Carly, Britt, and Becca are going to “get dirty.” They fly off to San Francisco and try on wedding dresses to compete in a mud and obstacle run. Jillian easily wins the competition, drawing the ire of Carly in particular. With some alone time with Chris she tells him she’s not a fan of the “five-year plan” question. Before the date ends, Chris decides there’s no future with Jillian and sends her home.

At the cocktail party, Becca reveals that Ashley I. isn’t the only virgin in the house and Britt exposes some jealousy, which Chris is not having. Addressing all of the women, he said anyone who questions his intentions can get going. During the rose ceremony, joining Jade and Kaitlyn with roses are Whitney, Carly, Megan, Samantha, Mackenzie, Kelsey, Becca, Ashley I. and Britt. Joining Jillian in getting dumped are Juelia, Nikki, and Ashley S.
