Controversial The Bachelorette contestant Brayden took center stage again on Monday night’s third episode.

This time, love rival Aaron B. told Charity Lawson that Brayden didn’t want to be there. And Brayden went ballistic over their fight.

The hunky travel nurse, 24, who won Charity Lawson’s first impression rose on the premiere but threatened to quit the show on episode 2, scored a one-on-one date with her on Monday night’s show.

They thoroughly enjoyed hanging out at San Diego’s Petco Park, the home of Padres baseball, where Brayden continued to tell Charity, 27, his doubts about The Bachelorette process.

On the second episode, Brayden had been outraged when he heard that during a group date he didn’t attend, other guys were forced to watch Charity and Joey complete the longest kiss in Bachelor franchise history.

“They were disrespected. I am going to pack my bags,” he said. He also labelled Charity’s kiss “classless.”

At the time, he confronted Charity and she explained she wanted to acknowledge Joey and kissing in front of the other dudes wasn’t malicious. Brayden was happy they’d talked it over and he got a rose and continued on the show.

On episode 3, however, Charity was startled that the Bachelorette experience still might be “too much for him” and wondered if he would fight for her.

Brayden had told her, “You’re dating other people and connecting with other people. It’s not a bad thing, but I’ve had a relationship where I was cheated on and I was so invalidated and felt so small. I don’t want to experience that again."

While she saw “red flags” with Brayden in San Diego, he exulted that it was “a super fun date.

“I’m a very upbeat person…a fun party guy,” he added.

But crazy bachelor fan on Twitter agreed with Charity, writing, "Literally every single thing that has come out of Brayden's mouth is a red flag."

Brayden told Charity he was smitten and she gave him the date rose.

However, later, Brayden raised eyebrows by telling fellow contestants that he didn’t know if he could get engaged to Charity knowing she’d dated so many other men.

Before the rose ceremony Brayden was dancing around with his date rose already on his lapel, bragging he was on “cloud nine.”

Aaron B. complained in confessional that his fellow competitor wasn’t ready for an engagement.

Before the rose ceremony, Aaron B. took Charity aside and said Brayden had been vocal around the house about “not wanting to be here. Not wanting to be with someone that’s dated 20 of his friends.”

Charity felt “frustrated” to hear that.

Aaron B. said to the Bachelorette, “I just don’t want to see you waste your time or get your heart broken.”

He then told Brayden what he’d said to Charity.

That’s when Brayden went bonkers in confessional, saying of Aaron, “You want to throw me under the bus!”

Aaron said he wanted to be a safe haven for Charity.

“I need to be like Will Smith right now. Keep my name out of your f---ing mouth!” Brayden told cameras, referring to the actor’s infamous Oscars slap of Chris Rock. “Dude, I’m f---ing annoyed! There was no reason to bring up my name!”

Charity got angry about Brayden, not understanding why he objected to her seeing other men—on a show where she’s supposed to date multiple guys!

She considered revoking his earlier date rose.

“He has a f---king rose on his chest. I will rip that s--- off!” she snarled.

Brayden and Charity discussed the drama and she yelled, “Why are you here? You knew what this was!”

Brayden insisted, “I can give you a connection.”

Meanwhile, Aaron B. told others he wanted to make sure “everyone’s intentions were pure.”

But Brayden told cameras that it was “a douche bag move.”

Ultimately, Charity decided to let Brayden stay as part of her final ten who moved on to next week’s episode 4. She had handed her first rose in Monday night's ceremony to Aaron B.

Aaron B. said of his Brayden battle, “I don’t regret doing what I did.”

Twitter user petersgolfcart 2.0 summed up the fan sentiment, writing, "CHARITY GIRL WHAT DO YOU SEE IN BRAYDEN."
