Coming off of aheated cocktail partyand rose ceremony, the ladies ofParadiseare ready to move forward. So on Tuesday night’s episode,Krystal Nielsonburns some sage to cleanse everyone’s auras and promote good vibes going into a week when the women will be giving out the roses.
“Feeling saged and saved,” Nielson, 30, declares.
Thanks toJordan Kimball‘s outburst at some of the women, his love interest Jenna Cooper wants to explore other options. “I am so over Jordan,” the 28-year-old tells the cameras. “I would rather date anybody else on this beach.”
“I put myself out there doing that on the reunion,” he tells Cooper of proposing. “I don’t have any regret.”
The two enjoy a romantic dinner and exchange passionate kisses, which leave Beausejour-Savard with Cooper’s red lipstick all over his face. Before heading back to the beach, the new couple shares a churroLady and the Trampstyle.
When the magical night ends, Beausejour-Savard and Cooper return to Playa Escondida to find Kimball up waiting for them. The male model, 26, wants to apologize for “being a tool the other night,” and insists that his date with Cooper “changed my life,” so he isn’t ready to lose her just yet.
Kimball pulls Cooper away from Beausejour-Savard to offer her his apology: “I’m Sorry” written largely in the sand. Despite his grand gesture, Cooper admits she has feelings for the French-speaking newcomer — but Kimball is willing to wait.
“I’m attracted to you,” he tells Cooper. “You fascinate me. You’re just wonderful and you should know that. You deserve someone that’s willing to do anything so if it takes losing a battle to win the war, that’s okay.”
Kimball encourages her to sleep on her decision, offering one final plea, “Let me know where you stand because you’re the only one inParadisekeeping me here.”
Bachelor in Hair-idise
Kimball and Cooper aren’t the only couple whose connection gets tested this week. WhenLeo Dottavioturns up on the sand, he immediately gains a lot of women’s attention.
“Leo is legitimately like a Fabio,” saysChelsea Roy, referring to model Fabio Lanzoni. “Think of every romance novel your mom has ever read.”
AddsKendall Long, “Bachelor in Paradisehas officially becomeBachelor in Hair-idise.”
When Dottavio and Long get back from their date, she fills Amabile in on what happened, kiss and all. “You’re just kissing everybody now,” the grocery store owner says to Long.
Though Amabile, 32, insists, “You’re allowed to do whatever you want,” he’s clearly upset, since he feels Long is the only woman inParadisefor him. But she says in an on-camera interview, “Deep down, I just know Leo is the most right for me. Like, I can like see him as more of along term thing.”
Amabile adopts a “let the best man win” attitude, and Dottavio continues getting to know other potential partners, hitting the hot tub with Roy, 30. “I could make out with every girl I wanted to, but I’m not going there just yet,” says Dottavio, who kisses Roy in the hot tub.

Making Things Official
The only couple seemingly on the upswing at this point isTia BoothandColton Underwood, who go on a proper date now that the dust has somewhat settled from their rocky Paradise start. Booth, 26, hopes the date will serve as a chance for Underwood, also 26, to finallyask her to be his girlfriend.
They’re having the time of their lives dancing and playing musical chairs on the Mexico streets whenRaven GatesandAdam Gottschalkcome along to impart some advice from aParadisecouple who’s lasted for over a year. But it’s not what Booth wants to hear.
“I just don’t think his intentions are good,” Gates tells Booth of Underwood. “First of all, Colton’s past dating history has been the It Girl. You’re the It Girl from your season, and he reached out to you. And then he went on Becca’s season, and now he’s back with you.”
Though Booth assures her pal that his actions are genuine, Gates, 27, responds, “All of his actions have said something different. I’m really concerned. I do not want to see you in heartbreak. You have to really see the true person that Colton is.”
Gates encourages Booth to “listen to your God-given woman intuition,” and threatens: “If this ends badly, I’mma cut his penis off, and he can’t everlose that virginity.”

Booth acknowledges the legitimacy of Gates’ argument and decides yet again to talk to Underwood about what he wants with her. She explains to the former NFL player that she doesn’t want to come off as someone who will “let guys off the hook,” and won’t tolerate him not being 100 percent committed.
Underwood says, “I’m not even going to maintain the thought of another girl coming down. I mean, you’re my girlfriend.”
Hearing the “g” word catches Booth off-guard, and she questions, “Are you going to ask me to be your girlfriend?”
“Yes, will you be my girlfriend?” he asks.
Of course Booth says “yes,” and her mind already starts racing.
“I can confidently say that I can see me and Colton getting engaged at the end of this,” she tells the cameras. “There’s nothing holding us back. I’m so hopeful and so excited for our future.”
At least someone had a good week inParadise!
