1. We began the episode trying figure out why the math just wasn't mathing:
How is there only NINE (9) guys left??!!!! #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/P048HG6CTW

2. Our 6'7" king, Dotun, deservedly got his first one on one date, but at what cost?
This is why people lie on resumes… Dotun trusted the producers with his biggest fear#bachelorette #thebachelorette pic.twitter.com/BTyekyL2ZR

3. Saying "I'm afraid of heights" to a The Bachelorette producer is essentially volunteering to fling yourself off a bridge.
Dotun: My biggest fear is heights. Me, if I were to have gone on this show back in the day: My biggest fears are breweries, foreign cuisines, hot tubs, sporting events, and boat rides. #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/YEIffxqLPI

6. Dibs were called on Joey, the human version of a green flag with twinkling green eyes to match:
I'm just saying, if Charity doesn't pick Joey can I call dibs... #thebachelorette #bachelorette pic.twitter.com/oz0vNPb2aR

7. It's never too early to place bets on who will be giving out the roses as next season's The Bachelor:

8. As always, a villain emerged to join the hall of infamy. This season, it's the dangle earring-clad menace, Brayden:

9. It's not just his outfit choices that bother us:
It’s interesting how Brayden challenges toxic masculinity with his fashion choices but upholds it with his… everything else #thebachelorette

10. Then again, it's not NOT his outfit choices:
“I just want her to stop being the bachelorette for one minute”And we want you to stop dressing like Ms. Darbus, but here we are. #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/XxOJuDLaAq

11. We were all thinking the same thing the entire episode: this scarfed bro has to go.

12. A power move was made on the group date:

13. When Sean said that Brayden was wearing a "shitty scarf" (fighting words), the producer challenged him:
Producer: “You’re wearing a scarf, what’s the difference between yours and his?”Sean: “This is cashmere.”#TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/6vAhsSxgTE

14. An icon, a legend, and the moment.
This just quickly became one of my favorite quotes in all of Bachelor history. #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/xdGQIYo7eW

15. Scarf silliness aside, things got real when Brayden was caught speaking negatively about Charity and The Bachelorette experience as a whole, so Charity finally said "BYEEE!"

16. She even tweeted about it herself! Get 'em, Charity!!
Did you not come on the show knowing it was the bachelorette? Make it make sense. #thebachelorette

17. Charity's brother, who warned her about bad vibes he felt from Brayden since week one, must have been behind the scenes just thrilled to know Brayden won't be attending a family dinner anytime soon:

18. Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief and enjoyed a moment of bliss:
why stress over the 24yo immature b**ch baby baby when you have an UNBOTHERED KNITTING BIOMEDICAL KING studying autoimmune diseases inspired by his MOTHER #TheBachelorette pic.twitter.com/yb0ca47PBA

19. That bliss was short lived, because The Bachelorette is nothing without ✨the drama✨:

21. I have a feeling they heard his accessories jingling before they saw him physically.

24. Thankfully, he wasn't back to stay — only to apologize. I'm guessing his return was attempted damage control to his image because he's hoping to score a spot on Bachelor in Paradise 🤷🏻♀️
Ok the behavior from #Brayden on the #bachelorette was massive red flag behavior. Busting in when he's not invited, so rude and aggressive opening doors and looking for #Charity uninvited. No respect. Super controlling behavior. Run girl, far away. pic.twitter.com/r0zITMuAgX

25. The rose ceremony was a rough one. Alexa, play "Brutal" by Olivia Rodrigo.
