We're sailing to another

Bruges, Belgium.
I'm just excited to explore
a new country
with my group of guys.
I think, ever since we
started traveling,
we've all been
in really good spirits
and truly here to find love.
Thank you.
I just hope that we keep
kind of riding this high.
We are very much in the middle
of this journey,

deep feelings

- I'm so excited
to be in Belgium.
I've never been,
and I'm really excited to try
some real Belgian chocolate.
There are canals,
little alleyways,
horse-drawn carriages,
and it's just so romantic.
It really is
out of a fairy tale.
Moving into this week,
I am excited for a fresh start.
The past couple weeks have
been really difficult for me
because I definitely feel
like there's been
a lot of rejection.
So I do want to put that
behind me.
I have a group date today,
and I feel really confident in
the guys that are here for me.
They step up when I ask them to.
I just only hope that this week,
they can continue
to show up for me.
- It was tough seeing Rachel
upset, you know,
over the past couple days.
You know, as a group,
we gotta make her feel good.
- I think it comes down
to all of us showing
how much we want to be here.
There's not one guy
around here that I don't think
is gonna do that.
- This has been a hard
couple weeks for Rachel,
and we all want her to smile
and enjoy her time,
and, like, I want those things
for her too.
[knock on door]
- Date card.

in my head constantly.

Zach.
Meatball.
Ethan.
Tyler.
Logan.
"How sweet it is
to be loved by you...
Love, Rachel."
- Usually, seeing your name
on a date card
is instant gratification, right?
But this one's kind of
mixed feelings for me.
But...
- Yeah.
It's nice to see your name
on the date card,
but you obviously kind of hope
that you were the one person
not on the date card.
But congrats to you, Aven.
Looks like you got
the one-on-one.
- Yeah. That's exciting.
- For this whole journey,
I've gotten to know Rachel
as this wonderful person,
but the worst thing I could do
is get to a point
where relationships
are at a more serious level
and then bring this up.
[tense music]
Before this group date
takes off,
I need to talk to Rachel.
I need to tell her I can't go,
and I need to tell her why.
I have no clue how she'll react,
but maybe she'll understand.
I'm praying she does.
Hi.
- Oh, hi.
- How are you?
- Good, how are you?
- Sorry for the surprise, but...
- Yeah.
- Uh, mind if I come in?
- Do you want to come in?

I wanted to have a quick talk,
if you had some time.

Um...
I've, like, never really
gotten a chance
to tell you that, like, uh...
Um...
like, how honored I am,
like, whenever you put
a rose on me.

to hear you say.
- Yeah. Um...
But I feel like something's
kind of been holding me back
a little bit,
a feeling that I've kind of
been anchored down by a bit.
- Yeah.
- And like, at the beginning
of this journey,
first group date,
going over to your house,
you and I shared, like,
a real connection.
- Mm-hmm.
- And I also got to talk
with Gabby.
- Mm-hmm.
- And me and Gabby
also had a strong connection.
- Yeah.
- And at the end of the night,
I originally thought
that I was going
to receive a rose from Gabby.
- Okay.
- And it's been hard for me
moving forward
to kind of forget
about that connection.
And when I read
that date card today,
I felt that everyone else
on that card
was sure
that you were going to be
someone who they could end up
with at the end of this.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, I still had reservations
and feelings for Gabby.
- Mm-hmm.
- And that being said, like,
I can't go today.
- Okay.
- And I'm going to have
to, like, step away from...
From pursuing things with you.

I look at myself in the mirror,
and I'm like, "I'm a fool."
Like, look at you.
- Uh-huh.
- I'm surprised
that you even gave me a chance
in the first place.
- Yeah.
I mean, you accepted
so many roses from me,
when the whole time,
you really didn't
even want to spend time?
- No.
- Like, I appreciate
you bringing this to me.
If that's where
your heart is, like,
I appreciate you telling me.
I just wish
it would have been earlier.
- It's also not something
that I've been sure of
until recently.
- Yeah.
Like...
of course,
the first thing I think
when this first popped
into my head
was like, "You're crazy.
Like, look at Rachel.
Look at who she is."
- You don't have
to explain that.
You don't have to keep going.
I got it.
You know,
I'm not trying to be mean.
I just... I get it.
- Okay.

this is tough to hear,
and no one really
wants to hear this, so...
- Yeah
- Mm-hmm.
- Um... thank you.
- Yeah.
I really thought going this
far, he wouldn't have flipped.
Like, looking forward, like,
I was really hopeful that things
could pick up with Logan and I,
'cause I think he's, like,
a great guy.
I'm attracted to him.
Like, I did give him
the first group date rose,

he was like,
"How do I tell Rachel
I don't even want to be here?"
Well, good luck.

Tonight, Johnny is saying
things to me that I don't know
if he's really said

willingness to be vulnerable,
