- You want to go first? OK.
- So it's week three, and there's 12 of us left.
It's definitely getting kind of crunch time
because I think we all have feelings for Gerry.
Well, I'm very excited to be here after the Rose Ceremony.
I feel like my connection with Gerry really got deeper.
- I mean, I was so fortunate to get the first date.
That was amazing. - I know.
- And I really do feel like I have a really great
connection with him, but so does Leslie
and so do you and so do you. - Yeah.
- The vibe is camaraderie, yet...
we have to, like, protect our heart.
I am nervous that some of the women
might start to get a little bit more catty.
- Has anybody seen--
a couple of the women are like this.
Gerry walks in. - [laughs]
- I mean, it's like somebody electrocuted them.
I mean--no, seriously.
Have you not noticed it? - Atención.
- It's like--it's like the three faces of Eve.
I mean-- [laughter]
- She could come up with them. - I love this.
- This morning, we decided we needed to form a group.
We finally figured out that we could have ASKN.
A for April, S for Susan, K for Kathy, N for Nancy.
ASKN. And our motto is,
you're askin', we're telling.
I think that it is clear, at least to me,
maybe to the rest of my sisters here,
Gerry seems to have really formed
a connection with Theresa.
But can I tell you what I'm jealous of?
Her damn clothes are so tiny. - I hate it.
- She's got like--she pulls out five shirts out of a bag.
That's my bag for, like, my underwear, you know?
Theresa's had a date, a one-on-one with Gerry,
the only one so far, and she said how fabulous it went.
And, you know, I really want that,
and I'm going to take every opportunity
that comes my way to talk with him.
- Ah, here he is. - Hi.
Hey, how's everybody feeling? all: Good.
- I think we should talk about this week
and what's gonna go down. What do you say?
- Tell us. Please, tell us.
- There is going to be a romantic one-on-one date,
and there is also gonna be
a super fun group date right now.
- No! - What?
- Judging by some of the looks on your faces,
I'm sure you're wondering who's going on this group date.
Well, guess what. I talked to Gerry,
and who he'd like to see is...
all of you.
[all cheering]
- Oh, that's my man.
- That's my man. - And that's your man
and your man and your man and your man.
- Whoo!
- Well, for today's group date...
- What? - You are all gonna be
performing in a talent show.
- [screams] [laughter]
- Oh, my God. - Yeah!

I was a professional dancer, so, yeah, I got this.

I am not a comedian, but--
OK, so this guy wanted to get married, right?
And he was dating two women.
He gave each one of them $1,000.
The first lady spent $800 on clothes,
and $200 she put in the bank.
The second lady spent $200 on clothes
and put $800 in the bank.
So the question is, which one did he marry?
Who knows?
- The banker.

Yeah.
- Spicy, Sandra.

Hello, everyone.
My name is Joan and I'm from Rockville, Maryland.
I am kind of scared to be on stage,
so I am totally out of my comfort zone.
But, Gerry, I want you to know that I composed a poem for you,
and it's titled, "I Just Hope I Don't Vomit on Your Shoes."
[laughter]
So here goes.
The limo finally came to a stop,
and they told me to get out.
"Really? Gerry is that many steps away?"
is all I could shout.
A long, tight dress and 4-inch high heels
that already started to hurt,
my only goal was to reach Gerry
without planting myself in the dirt.
[laughter]
Now each time I get the chance to talk with our sweet Gerry,
my hands shake a little less
because he makes things not so scary.
all: Aww.
- So as I stand here today
without a talent to expose,
I recite this poem to you, Gerry,
because I really just want another rose.
[laughter]
I hope you can see that being on this stage
could really give me the blues,
and that you'll give me some extra point
for just not vomiting on your shoes.
- [laughs] [cheers and applause]
[soft music]
- I got up there. I did it.
That was just crazy.
I'm so excited.
- I felt like she was just talking to me
and no one else was around, you know?
all: Aww.
- It's a big decision.
A lot riding on this.
- I know I'm gonna get that date,
and I hope when I come home tonight,
the women will be OK with that.
- Although I'd love to take you all to dinner,
I have to say...
Joan, would you go to dinner with me tonight?
[applause]
- Joan, why don't you come on up?
Let's hear it for Joan, everybody.
- He was looking for maybe somebody
that is not used to being in front of everybody.
And I'm a little emotional about it,
but I'm really, really happy it's Joan.
But I can also be disappointed for myself.
- Gerry and Joan, your date starts right now.
Why don't you get on out of here, you two lovebirds?
Off you go.
- At the end of the day, no one ever picks me,
but tonight, I actually thought, "I have this."
I'm not just, like, you know, sexy dancer.

- I'll drink to that.

on a very strong connection.
And knowing how much she's sacrificed to be here,
that is a strong signal
that she does have feelings for me.

This rose means a lot.
It is recognition
of how vulnerable you made yourself
and, above all else, how you've made me feel.

Of course I will. Thank you.

Kathy and I have never had any bad words between us.
I'm confused by what Kathy could have possibly said.
This is crazy.
I don't want to be a part of any of this.
- Aww. - This is my dad.
I was about 30 there. [laughs]
He taught me hard work
and being a good person is what matters.
And-- - Aww.
Yeah. Yeah.
Take a little hug here.
Come on. It's good.
- I've had a rough day.
- Oh, you have? What's the matter?
- Honestly, the last 24 hours or so,
I've had a lot of meanness, and I'm--
- Really? What's go-- - Yeah.
It just--you know, people aren't necessarily very nice.
- You know, you're an incredibly
positive and upbeat person.
To hear this from you is a very loud voice,
so I want to hear about what's going on.
- I just had a lot of, you know, daggers today,
and so I really am trying to keep it together here.
- Is there someone in particular
that I need to look out for?
- I think that--
I think that sometimes
what you initially see is not what is.
And I don't want to make a mistake,
and I don't want you to make a mistake.
My biggest goal for you is to be happy.
I want you to be happy.
- That is so nice.
- It's the truth.
- When someone puts another person's happiness
ahead of their own, especially when they're very upset,
that speaks volumes about that person's heart.
So if you'd wait right here... - I won't move.
- I'll be right back. - OK.
- I've learned a whole new side of Kathy.
I've developed some real feelings for her.
So I understand you had a tough day.

- Kathy, would you accept this rose?
Oh, my goodness.
♪ ♪
- Oh, my God, thank you.
I have a rose.
- Oh, my God!
[all cheering] Yes!
- What's going on, Kathy? - Oh, my God.
- I mean, I just-- yes, many of you know I had
kind of a rough afternoon,
and I am so grateful for this rose.
- We're just so happy for you, Kathy.
- This is so great.
- He really is a wonderful guy, and he deserves the best.
- And so do you.
- Thanks. I appreciate that.
- Kathy, can I talk to you? - Say?
- Can I talk to you? - Yep.
- OK. Let's go. - Where are we going?
- Over here. Over here.
[tense music]
So you know I love you, and I was just, like--
just surprised at what April had said to me.
- I don't know what April said to you.
- Well, she didn't say who it was about,
but she did say that, you know, people should--
something like, keep things-- be more discreet.
- I think you and Gerry have a huge connection.
Here's my problem.
You have made me feel--
- Oh. - No, let me finish.
And I feel like you're dismissing me,
like, "He and I are going off into the sunset.
Go pack, because you're going home."
That's how you've made me feel sometimes.
- Oh, my God. I didn't think--
- No. - I didn't know that.
I'm so sorry.
- You've made me feel... - Oh, my God.
- Like it's a foregone conclusion.
- Oh, my God, I don't think that at all.
- You say things like-- no, don't cry.
When you say things like,
"You guys have a huge connection,"
I think that's the kind of stuff
that sounds possessive, territorial,
and "Get the hell out of my way.
He's mine."
That's not a pretty picture, Theresa.
- I was just trying to be open and honest.
- You can't blame--no. I'm not buying that.
What comes out of our mouths is our responsibility,
and it's--and we own it.
- Oh, my God. I feel horrible.
- So they both just left and went out into the foyer.
- Well, good, then they're gonna clear the air, I hope.
- I mean, we're adults.
We are not 20-some-year-olds.
- I did not really expect the drama,
but I'm sure that some people are very envious.
When I don't want to hear about it,
I just turn down my hearing aids.
[laughs]
- I have to-- I have to go somewhere.
- OK. All right.
- I have to go.
- Is she OK?
- You know, we just had a conversation,
and I told her how I felt.
- Are you OK?
- I'm so horrible.
- Theresa, if you did-- - I didn't mean to do that.
That was not my intention.
- I feel badly now that she's upset.
I feel badly that anyone gets upset.
- I know. I understand that.
- But I don't know.
I don't know the way out of that.
- Wait, so what are they saying that you said,
because I haven't even heard--
- They're saying that I've been boastful about it.
- No, you have not.
I've been in the same room with you,
and you haven't done that.
That's what I don't understand.
It can't be. - Hello?
- I refuse to believe that. - Oh.
- Yeah. - Hi.
- I really don't think there was ever any evil intent.
I think it got misconstrued or, you know, misunderstood,
and that's easy to misunderstand people.
- Hey, what's going on?
- Oh, hi, Gerry. How are you?
Why are you in our messy bedroom?
- Well, first off, take a little breath,
and then talk to me.
What's the matter? - Yeah.
So apparently, everybody thinks
that I've been boasting about
that I have a connection with you.
- I can't believe it was Theresa.
It's just very unfortunate because having had
a one-on-one date with Theresa,
I found her to be very tender-hearted.
You know, if in your heart you don't believe
that you were boastful, you don't believe that you were
doing anything to hurt someone,
then I think you should let it go.
Now there's just this disturbance,
and that's not what I'm here for.
That's the one area that I think could be
a real stumbling block for us.
- Oh, my God.
- Oh, my God, this is hard.
- I'm feeling disappointed that there is drama,
and if I lose out and don't get a rose because of that,
I'm gonna feel devastated.
- Nothing's a given in life, and here,
nothing's a given for sure.
- I think Theresa is very worried
about not getting a rose.
I can't tell you how this is gonna end.
I can't tell you who Gerry's gonna pick,
but I can assure you of one thing.
She is not Mrs. Turner yet.

- Going into tonight's Rose Ceremony,
the mood is so stressful,
you could actually cut it with a knife.
- I don't feel relaxed in this Rose Ceremony at all.
I shared things with Kathy about my connection
and my relationship with Gerry that caused all this drama.
I'm so scared that this could go away,
and I just need more time with Gerry.
- Ladies, it's been quite a week.
There's been some exceptionally good highs,
and there's been some real unfortunate lows.
And so as time is passing,
we need to keep hope in the journey and the process
that we're all going through.
So with that being said,
it's time to begin the Rose Ceremony.

Faith, will you accept this rose?

But I really want to show Gerry who I am,
not just the fun dancing girl, but that I can be all things.
- Sandra? - Ooh.
Thank you.
- Sandra, will you accept this rose?

- It'd be nice to be validated,
get that one-on-one time with Gerry that I really want,

- Leslie?
Leslie, will you accept this rose?
- Yes. Give it to me.
[laughter]
- I really want a rose from Gerry tonight.
I really, really want a rose from Gerry.
I feel like we've had a phenomenal relationship
from the very beginning, and I hope
that he feels the same way.
- Nancy?
- If I don't get a rose tonight,
I'd be absolutely heartbroken.
- Susan?
- Because that means that what I thought happened between me
and Gerry was all on my side and not on his side.
- April?
- Thank you.
Thank you so much.
- April, you accept this rose?
- And your heart.
Thank you for everything.

Please, Gerry, I really want that rose tonight.

- Bless you. - It was great meeting you.
- Today, I shared things I shouldn't have shared.
I said things I shouldn't have said,
and Kathy was very upset.
I'm very sad that she was that upset,
and I had a really good relationship with Kathy
before this all happened, so I hope to have it again.
I want to go forth with all good feelings.
I'm so sorry.
Did you have a really nice time with him?
- I mean, I was mostly crying, but yeah.
You know, he's just such a great guy.
- He's so nice. - So intuitive.
- He came up to me and said the most wonderful thing.
He came up to where I was bawling
my eyes out in the bedroom--
- He came up to your bedroom?
Theresa, that's the kind of stuff
you need to keep to yourself.
I really think Theresa had no clue.
Yeah. I don't.
I run my mouth all the time, as we all know,
but I also am intuitive.
And I'm like, is anybody else seeing that?
She's like this.
I think Theresa is a nice person,
but I can't figure out if she's dumb as a rock
or knows exactly what she's doing.
I want to especially thank you for your kindness,
and I wish us all a week of joy, fun, and adventure.
- Yes. - Together.
- Thank you.
- I don't want to take the gloves off.
I don't want to be mean, but zip your lip.

We're all good people here.
So I hope we can be good friends again.

I'm going home with Susan.
If you stop farting.
It's torture sitting here.

Is it possible your gas is coming from--
