The Bachelorette August 8, 2022 Eliminated Mario, Michael & James (Recap)
Hey, Bachelor Nation fans. Tonight, August 8, 2022, another new episode of The Bachelorette 2022 edition with headliners Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey did indeed air, and we saw some more guys head out the door at the end.
Tonight’s episode kicked off with Logan telling the private cams, “I want Rachel to enjoy her time here, but that still doesn’t change how I feel for Gabby.” Next, Rachel’s guys: Tino, Zack, Meatball aka James, Ethan, Tyler and Logan found out they were selected to go on a group date with Rachel.
Logan told the private cams, “I need to tell Rachel why I can’t go on the group date, and I hope she understands.” During their big talk, Logan told Rachel, “I feel like something’s been holding me back. When we talked at the first group date, I felt like we had a good connection. However, I also talked with Gabby, and we also had a strong connection.
It’s been hard for me to forget about that connection with Gabby. I still had reservations and feelings for Gabby. That being said, I can’t go on this date today.” Rachel said, “I thank you for telling me. I wish you could’ve said this earlier. Obviously, this tough to hear. Well, good luck. I’ll walk you out.”
Rachel with tears in her eyes, told the private cams, “I wish Logan would have stayed with me. I gave him a rose. I thought we had a good connection. I feel like everyone’s leaving me. I don’t want to do this anymore. I feel like such a failure as a Bachelorette.”
Host Jesse Palmer showed up to talk with Rachel. She told him, “I thought we were past the point of people changing their minds. I feel like I have walls coming up, and it’s unfair to the guys that are still here. It’s hard to keep adding momentum to this.”
Jesse said, “It’s impossible to be the perfect Bachelorette. I wasn’t the perfect Bachelor. All you can do is just use your intuition and make the best decision. There’s no playbook for this thing.” Those words seemed to resonate with Rachel.
Next, we got footage of Jesse telling Rachel’s group date guys: Tino, Zack, Meatball aka James, Ethan and Tyler that the group date has been canceled. He told them, “Some stuff went down, and Rachel doesn’t feel like she’s in the right mindset, but she will see you later at the afterparty.”
Meanwhile, Logan was seen going to talk with Gabby. He told Gabby how he felt about her. Then, he went on to explain how he broke the news to Rachel saying, “Earlier this morning, I talked to Rachel about being more into you, and I think she understood, but she was very frustrated. I don’t expect you to make any sort of decision right now. I know you and Rachel are very good friends, but I just felt that I had to be honest about my feelings.”
Gabby told Logan, “To be honest, you were our only overlap at the beginning. We were both interested in you, but I backed off for Rachel. I just need to have a talk with Rachel ,first, but I’ve always been interested in you.” Logan said, “I’m glad we got to talk. I feel better already, being able to be honest.” Then, they hugged goodbye.
Next, Gabby talked with Rachel about Logan. During their conversation, Rachel brought up that Logan accepted so many roses before deciding to leave. She also told Gabby she canceled the group date because of that drama.
Gabby told Rachel, “I don’t want to put you in a bad place of having to see Logan again.” Rachel said, “I don’t want you to think about me when it comes to making a decision about this.” Rachel told the private cams, “I think Gabby is really into Logan. I just don’t think he’s trustworthy for accepting so many of my roses, and I hope Gabby sends him home.”
At Rachel’s group date afterparty, Rachel told Tino, Zack, James, Ethan and Tyler all about the ordeal she had with Logan saying, “Logan is interested in pursuing a relationship with Gabby, and the constant rejection is just tough. If any of you guys don’t want to be here, you don’t have to be. Just let me know now.”
Rachel talked 1 on 1 with Ethan. He told her in regards to Logan, “I’m sorry you had to deal with that. I’m here because I love the feeling of seeing you smile and making you feel happy.” Rachel said, “I know, and I thank you for being here.” Then, hey kissed.
Rachel talked with Tino. Tino told her, “Moving forward, I wanna be your person. Today, hurt a little bit. I feel like our relationship has gotten to the point that we can talk about things like this.” Rachel said, “I do feel the same way,and thank you for caring.” Then, they kissed. Rachel told the private cams, “Tino really does make me hopeful.”
Rachel talked with James. They laughed and had a good time. Rachel talked with Tyler. They danced and kissed. He told her, she’s a star.
Rachel talked with Zach. Zach told her, “The connections are getting deeper, and you’re handling it like a champ.” Rachel said, “Thank you.” They also laughed, had a good time and kissed. Rachel told the private cams, “I really enjoy my time with Zach. He makes me laugh, and I feel like I can be myself with him.” At the end, Rachel gave Tino a group date rose.
Next, we got footage of Gabby’s group date with Jason, Michael, Erich, Nate and Spencer. She took them to get waffles. Then, they played soccer with some kids. They played a Belgium game that involved them getting slapped with fish after playing, rock, paper, scissors. Gabby told the guys, “I feel like I’m the luckiest girl in the world, and it’s really great to be here with all of you.”
At the afterparty, Logan joined the rest of the guys. They were surprised to see him. He asked, “How is everybody?” Then, he told them everything that happened earlier between him, Rachel and Gabby, and that Gabby chose to let him pursue her.
The other guys definitely didn’t look happy to see the added competition. Gabby talked 1 on 1 with Mario. He told her, “I think you’re awesome. So, I wouldn’t make you question anything.” Gabby said, “I appreciate that.”
Gabby talked with Nate. Nate told her in regards to the Logan situation, “You should explore your relationships. You have my support in this.” Gabby said, “Thank you, and it’s hard for me ,too, for this to be hard for you.” Then, they kissed.
Gabby talked with Erich. Gabby told him, “I do think about you a lot, and I do think we could grow some more, and there’s time.” Then, they kissed.
Gabby talked with Logan. Logan told her, “I feel great. This is what I wanted, to be sitting here holding your hand, and this is where I wanna be. I’m very into you. So, I’m glad to be here.” Gabby said, “You found a way to do what you did with integrity, and that means a lot.” Then, they kissed. At the end, Gabby gave Nate the group date rose.
Next, we got to see Rachel’s 1 on 1 date with Aven. Aven told her, “I was so excited to get the 1 on 1 date with you.” Rachel said, “I feel great with you.” They ended up taking a horse carriage ride, and they kissed. They went to a chocolate store and kissed some more. They also participated in a pretend wedding where they ended up kissing some more. Rachel told the private cams, “I feel like we have a strong connection. So, I can’t wait to get to know him some more tonight.”
During the second half of Rachel and Aven’s date, Aven talked about his life growing up. He revealed that he lived with both his mother and dad ,separately, during different periods of his life. He also gave her a good luck charm. Then, Rachel gave him a rose, and they kissed while fireworks went off. Rachel told the private cams, “I feel like I could go all the way with Aven, and I feel like I’m almost there.”
Next up, was Gabby’s 1 on 1 date with Johnny. They greeted each other with a big hug. She took him to a family beer brewery. They got to taste different kinds of beer. Then, they got into their swimsuits and got very playful with each other in a hot tub. They seemed to have a lot of fun, rubbing mud on each other and so on and so forth.
During the second half of Gabby and Johnny’s date, they talked. Johnny told her, “I’m super guarded because of past relationships.” He talked about struggling with confidence and depression to the point where he should actually talk to someone about it. Gabby totally understood, and she revealed that feels the same way about herself in some aspects. She told him, “I feel like I never have to be reserved around you.” Then, she gave him a rose.
After all of that, we got some cocktail party footage: Gabby talked with Nate. They immediately kissed some more, and she gave him a gift, which was Belgium chocolate for his daughter. He really appreciated it, and they kissed some more.
Gabby talked with Michael. They had a good time. Gabby kissed Spencer. Jason told Gabby, “You impress me.” Gabby said, “No, you impress me,” and they kissed. Eric and Gabby kissed. Logan and Gabby played rock, paper, scissors, and she slapped him with a fish. Then, they kissed. They had a very fun, playful time.
Finally, we got down to the nitty gritty rose ceremony. During it, Gabby gave: Jason, Spencer, Erich and Logan a rose to join Johnny and Nate who received roses earlier in this episode. Logan told the private cams, “It’s an even playing field now. It’s anyone’s game. So, it might as well be my game.”
Rachel gave: Zach, Tyler and Ethan a rose to join Aven and Tino who got roses earlier in the show. That means poor: Mario, Michael and Meatball aka James did not get a rose. So, they were eliminated.
And that was tonight’s show, guys. How do you feel about the results? Let us know in the comments section.
