And then they move off, getting lowered down the side in their adult-sized Jolly Jumpers, Sarah screeching and Sean yelling "woo!" the whole time. Then they pulls a few muscles congratulating themselves on what they accomplished, which amounts to letting someone lower them down the side of the building. So add "accomplishment" to the list of words people on this show don't actually correctly understand.
Night falls, and these two are still patting themselves on the back for the profound thing they just did. They're drinking wine, and Sarah wants to share a story: She was in Vegas with her dad, and she wanted to go ziplining. She was really excited, and got all the way through to getting strapped into the equipment, but then she was told that she couldn't do it because of her disability. She was mortified and humiliated and ran from the room, because she wasn't allowed to do something she knew she could do. Argument in favor of not making fun of Sarah: She's probably dealt with more bullshit and challenge over not having something the rest of us take for granted, and that's not nothing. So you know what, Sean? Your patronizing nonsense about how feeling like you wants to protect her is so out of place. Something tells me Sarah's quite fine at taking care of herself.
Back at the mansion, another date card arrives. It's for Kristy, Amanda, Brooke, Leslie M., Daniella, Catherine, Robyn, Katie, Selma, Diana, Taryn, Kacie and Tierra. Wait, isn't that everybody? "Let's capture the romance. Sean." It's way too early for me to worry about whether I've spelled all those names correctly. I'll figure it out.
Back on the date, Sarah is explaining that her previous relationship broke up because she wants more spontaneity. Sean, waits for her to tell her deeply personal story before he explains he's got one more thing to show her. No, not his penis! Stop that, everyone! That comes later! And then it turns out to be the rose, instead of something cool like a Lamborghini to drive around in. Sean is telling us about having butterflies and wanting that first kiss, and then the two of them are kissing. Sarah calls it the most incredible first date of her entire life, and that Sean is incredible. She feels like she's falling in love with him, and she doesn't know how she got so lucky.
Group date! I must say, all the women are crystal clear on the fact that the goal is to wind up with a rose. It's a good thing that we get clips of them explaining that they want a rose. I happy to learn that so many of them are aware of the necessary step to continue in this competition.
