'The Bachelorette': Chad Accused on Controversial Group Date
JoJo Fletcher tries her best to keep the mood light.
-- JoJo Fletcher and her many men are an undeniably sexy bunch, but tonight’s group date takes things to a new level of sizzle on "The Bachelorette."
A preview of the episode appeared today on “Good Morning America,” and it shows JoJo and her suitors on a group date. The talk turns to sex, and in their efforts to impress JoJo, the men turn to a stand-up comedy routine, regaling her with stories of their love lives.
But before the date even begins, trouble already swirls around Chad.
“Whatever team Chad’s on, let’s hope it’s a bench press competition, not a spelling contest,” Jordan says.
“Are you trying to insinuate that I'm stupid, Jordan?” Chad asked.
“No, nothing really comes out of your mouth,” Jordan said.
Chad had a quick comeback, telling Jordan: “You're a 27-year old-failed football player. You’ve done nothing with your life other than throw a piece of leather.”
The tension in the house is no laughing matter, but the men’s attempt at humor on the date is.
“It was kind of like standup comedy, meets improv, meets tell the most embarrassing story you have about yourself, it needs to be a sex story and remember, millions of people are watching, including your mother,” Wells Adams said.
“In high school, most guys it's like everybody wants to be the first to lose their virginity so the first chance you have to have sex, you're going to take it,” Grant said.
The sneak peek of the episode shows that Evan uses his time in the spotlight to again call out Chad, implying alleged steroid use.
“You get the dangers of steroid usage and really steroid overdose withdrawal from people saying things like 'the girl I'm trying to date is nagging me,’” Evan said.
“Evan is essentially implying Chad takes steroids ...,” said Ali.
“When Evan gets knocked out by Chad, no one's going to be surprised,” said Grant.
Meanwhile, JoJo tries her best to keep the mood light.
"The Bachelorette" returns Monday night at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
