NEW YORK -- The show started with Ashley I. and Joe commiserating about how they both were dumped. Or, so Ashley thought. Joe told her he wasn't a very emotional guy and then as she sobbed asked her who she was going to give her rose to. Seriously dude, pay attention to her for five minutes and you might have shot at getting a rose! I don't see that happening!

Carly walked up to the group with a date card and it was for Mikey! It said, "Choose your date and pack your bag, Guadalajara waits." Right away, he asked Juelia to go on the date. She happily accepted! After a FaceTime call with her daughter Ireland, Juelia prepared to go out with Mikey and get a second chance at love. He walked up looking very handsome and fortunately did not have a man bun. They boarded a private plane and took off for their big date.

Back at the beach, Joe is spreading the word to the guys that Samantha is a bigtime liar. Now the guys are starting to feel bad for Joe a little bit because they see that Samantha was the puppet master. Joe wants her to admit that they had a plan and also that she was talking to Nick. Joe tells Samantha that she hasn't been "open and honest" and he wants her to "crash and burn" if she's not lovey dovey and willing to get engaged to him. What the heck?! That's crazy. This guy is insane and a little scary! Now I feel bad for her with Joe attempting to blackmail her.

Kirk surprised Carly with a fishing date! They tried their luck but didn't catch any fish. Instead, they enjoyed a sunset and some drinks by the water. They talked about what their lives would be like and Carly even thinks that he could be her future husband! They went fishing but didn't have any luck with that, but they did catch each other!

Meantime, Juelia and Mikey's plane landed in Guadalajara and they went to a professional wrestling competition! There was a huge crowd inside and they got to watch the professionals perform. Juelia and Mikey even did a little kissing in the stands!

After the show was over, they jumped into the ring and did some "wrestling". It was cute! They have a really great playful side to them! They sat down and talked about how they really like each other and how this date would be hard to top in the future. Then, to make it super awkward, Chris Harrison gave them the option for a fantasy suite. Mikey said he wouldn't be uncomfortable because he's "a man", and Juelia figured she might as well take advantage of the time to see if there is something really there between them.

Juelia and Mikey had a nice night together and enjoyed some room service for breakfast in the morning. Juelia pulled out a wrestling mask and put it on and wrestled Mikey again, but this time in bed!

Ashley I. is still trying to figure out what to do with her rose since Jared isn't interested in her. She said that she cried for three hours. Joe is still confused about Samantha and doesn't know what to do. Joshua told him to apologize and smooth things over. He doesn't get it at all. So Joshua had to tell Joe to just say that he's sorry that there was drama and see if that works.

Joe got the bartender to make a mimosa for Ashley I. and then he went to get some advice on how to get Samantha to like him again. She told him to pretend that he was just meeting her and start over. Joe walked up to Samantha at the bonfire later that night and tried it out. He said, "Hi, I'm Joe would you like a smore?" She was like, "No, I'm good." He tried to say, "Where are you from?" Samantha sat there and said nothing. It totally didn't work!

Justin from Kaitlyn's season comes walking in! He's a handsome guy who any single ladies should try to meet! Joe, Joshua, and Tanner talk to Justin about who is coupled up so far. Justin doesn't care that Joe doesn't want him to ask Samantha on a date and he does it anyway! Samantha accepted!

Justin and Samantha walked back up to the campfire from the beach and Justin told everyone that he and Samantha would be going on a date together. Joe was visibly upset. Samantha pulls Joe aside to talk and she tells him that she just wants to have a "clean slate" and start fresh with someone different. She doesn't really tell him that she wants to completely end it with him though! She needs to just say, "Sorry, I'm not feeling it, let's both move on". Then he sadly started talking about how he never should have gone for the prettiest girl there and he will never get a girl like that. It was terrible.

Next week, Tenley and Joshua go on another date and then Chris Bukowski asks Tenley out apparently. Also it looks like Amber two-times Joe with Justin. The drama with Joe continues and he keeps threatening to show everyone the "text message" that she sent him before the show.

During "After Paradise" Joe showed up to face "Bachelor Nation" for his horrible behavior. Chris Harrison also promised to announce the next "Bachelor"! Michelle Collins from "The View" joined as the super fan on the panel this week. Dan was the first contestant who came out to chat. He pretty much talked about Joe the entire time and how weird he was on the show. Kaitlyn called into the show and said that Joe started off nice on her season but then when she let him go, a switch flipped. She also called the phone call from Ashley I. typical Ashley I. and that's just the way she is. She thinks Jared is over her and just was looking for an excuse to get out of dating Ashley.

Joe came out and said, "I'm completely ashamed" and he was hoping that Juelia might someday forgive him. He thinks that she's a special person and he said that he wished he didn't have tunnel vision for Samantha at the time because he never gave his relationship with Juelia a fair shot. Also, something tells me that Juelia is better off! I am glad to see that he feels a little bad about what he did though and hopefully he'll treat his next girlfriend or any women that he dates better.

Then Juelia came out to face Joe! Joe begged her to go easy on him. She said that she went through a hard time on the show, but she's happy in her life, and she just wants to stand up for women in general. Joe said he respects why she is there and he is truly sorry for what he did and it wasn't fair to her. She also confronted him about what he said about her not being very smart in trusting him and he apologized and said what he did was "disgusting". They sat there awkwardly and even "Bachelor Nation" was torn on whether or not Joe was being genuine, however 60% thought that they didn't buy his apology.

At last it was time for the big announcement. The next "Bachelor" is Ben Higgins! Chris Harrison tried to fake us out by bringing Nick Viall on and it was kind of sad actually! I would love to see Nick to find love! But, Ben is fantastic! READ MORE ABOUT BEN HERE.
