Tonight’s episode is the Women Tell-All and will be nothing like we have seen before. The women in attendance tonight are; Claire, Kate, Hunter, Jill, Elizabeth, Marlena, Cassidy, Kira, Eliza, Shanae, Sarah, Lyndsey, Mara, Sierra, Genevieve, Teddi, and Serene, with Jesse Palmer hosting. Jesse says that Clayton’s journey had tons of drama and tears. On night one, Claire said she hated Clayton and didn’t want to be with America’s sweetheart. Then we move on to see a lot of the behind-the-scenes of Shanae’s nasty behavior. A lot of the women in attendance are in shock when they hear the horrible things that Shanae said about them. Shanae calls all the girls fake and says she had no choice. Sierra dares Shanae to call her a bitch to her face, things get heated and Jesse tells them to calm down, the show has only begun and they are going to be there for a while.

Jesse plays a very revealing talk between Cassidy and Sierra just before the second cocktail party where Cassidy said she was face timing a friend from the hotel room and he wanted to watch the show with her when they got back and do nasty things with her. Cassidy says this was not a game to her, she really had a connection with Clayton. Cassidy says the root of the problem is that somebody thought it was wrong that she had casual sex with someone before coming on the show. Hunter says it is not because she had sex, it was because she had the guy on hold, just in case. Kate says it is not unforgivable to have a guy on the side, the worst thing is that Cassidy coached Shanae and turned her into a Frankenstein. Kate tells Shanae that she liked her when she met her, but when she saw the sinister diabolic bitch underneath, that was a game-changer. Lyndsey says being around Shanae was a lose situation, she was a bully. The woman all starts screaming and shouting at Shanae. Jesse has to intervene again, he welcomes Shanaw to the hot seat – the women are calling out, “fake cry, get her a diaper.”

Shanae issues with the women have led to the wildest situations. Jesse asks her why she came on the show. She says she was single for five years, and she did to find her person. In the beginning, she felt it was great, but it changed when they all went into the house on day two. Elizabeth and she were friends on day one, but she was toxic and ignored her. Shanae says she was fake to her and ignored her. Jill calls Shanae a liar, Sierra calls a narcissistic gaslighting biatch. Jesse fast forwards to Houston when trophies weren’t safe. There was a turn of events when Shanae apologized to the women. She says she did it for Clayton, she didn’t do it because she wanted to. The women call her out on lying to Clayton, she told him she felt good about apologizing. In Toronto, the two on one with Genevieve where Shanae called her a chihuahua. Jesse calls Genevieve to the hot seat now.

They talk about the date and the fact that both Genevieve and Shanae made a pact not to talk about each other during the date and Shanae broke that when she said to Clayton that Genevieve was an actress, yet behind the scenes, she flipped her hair and said that she acted better than Meryl Streep. Shanae then goes on to say that when she went home she was heartbroken, couldn’t eat, and couldn’t sleep, yet Genevieve went home and dated Aaron Clancy from Katie’s season. Genevieve says she met him at a bar but she is blown away that Shanae even brought that up. Shanae says the fact that Genevieve was hanging out with people from Bachelor Nation proves that she was not on the show for Clayton. Lyndsey tells Shanae that she made it miserable for everyone, she ruined the experience. Jesse says they could sit there for a week and hash this out. Shanae is given an opportunity to say something, she decides to say nothing. Genevieve says she is glad that America got to see who she is and thank God Clayton didn’t choose her, he would have been so disappointed.

Next in the hot seat is Sarah, she made an impression on Clayton but when the other women claimed she was manipulative she got sent home. We get a glimpse back to Mara saying that Sarah is not wife material. Then we see when Sarah got caught in her lies and Clayton sent her home. Sarah doesn’t look happy having looked back at how she reacted on the show. Sarah says her intentions were not to hurt anyone. Teddi tells Sarah just to admit that she lied and they can move on. Sarah says she saw tears with Clayton, she is not lying.

Teddi now joins Jesse in the hot seat. Her connection with him was strong, but at the end of the day, he sent her home. Teddi was blindsided when he sent her home. Teddi is affected by watching the video, tears are streaming down her face. She says this is her first time seeing that, seeing the beginning to the end, they were so strong, it’s hard to see. She felt not worthy when he didn’t give her a rose and sent her home. Teddi is broken up, she says she dated a lot of guys who were toxic and she felt like she wasn’t good enough. And this was another situation, she came up short again with Clayton and it was hard to watch. She thought she would make it to fantasy suites and she questioned if he was going to be her first.

Serene is in the hot seat, Jesse shows a clip of her journey. She had a quick connection with Clayton, he is completely different from guys that she had dated in the past, she loves that he was genuine. Everything that she learned about him she would value in a future husband. When Clayton send her home, she was confused, she had literally told him that she was in love with him and if that did nothing for him, there is nothing she can do, she gave it her all.

Clayton comes on stage, finally ready to face the music in front of all the women. He says the hardest part is to watch what he did on the show, he feels like he made a lot of mistakes. But he thought he was doing his best because he had good intentions. Sierra asks him why he didn’t listen to the women tell him that Shanae was toxic and he didn’t see it. He had a connection with Shanae and he was basing his decisions based on that. When she threw the trophy in the pond, his mind turned around. Sierra tells him that he was confused between love and loss. Clayton tells Shanae that he believed her, but when he looked back, she manipulated him and the other women. Clayton admits that the worst thing he did is trust and believe Shanae.

Clayton then talks about Sarah, he says at that point he had a fair amount of trust in the women and they all came to him with the same story. He tells her that she was playing the game for her benefit and made him question the other women, it put him in a bad spot. Sarah says that she did believe that they had a great relationship, but she felt he was disingenuous, he was constantly stirring the pot. They talk about the crying again on his first one on one with Sarah, he says he did not cry. Clayton says again, that he did not cry on any of his dates with Sarah.

Jesse shows viewers bloopers from the season that are hilarious. Then Clayton shows a tape of Jesse’s season when he accidentally gave the rose to a woman and had to tell her to give it to the right one. Teddi tells Clayton that she hopes he is ok.
