'The Bachelorette' recap: Hannah loses a Luke
One Luke leaves the show while the other also hangs in the balance.
The first one-on-one date in Scotland goes to Mike, whom Hannah invites on a booze-filled tour of the country, while the “Luke Ness Monster,” as he's nicknamed, gets a dressing down from the other guys for throwing Luke S. under the bus.
Meanwhile, after a fun day, Hannah and Mike settle down for an intimate dinner where they each open up about what brought them to \"The Bachelorette.\" For Hannah, it was finding her strength after a series of heartbreaks. Mike is also trying to bounce back from a broken heart after the woman he loved dumped him in 2015. He tells Hannah he’s “terrified” of falling in love, but assures her that he’s “ready to get down on one knee in a few weeks,” if he should be so lucky. Mike’s willingness to open up, and his vulnerability, earn him the date rose.
Devin, Tyler Jed, Dylan, Grant, Connor, Dustin, Peter, Kevin and Garrett are the next men selected for a group date, leaving Luke P. as the lucky recipient of the next one-on-one date with Hannah. However, in an about-face from his first group date, in which he declared he was “falling in love” with Hannah, he tells the guys he’s still seeking \"clarity” in their relationship.

Next, the 10 men, fitted with Scottish kilts, compete in the first-ever “Bachelorette Highland Games,” which consists of ax-throwing, a wrestling match and a yoke race, where the guys race to see who can carry buckets of milk suspended from a piece of wood balanced on their shoulders without any spills. Jed wins the competition and the date rose.
Then it's Luke’s one-on-one with Hannah, which comes with an invitation to “figure things out, one way or another.” Addressing the camera, Luke says he “can’t see it going any other way than phenomenal” -- but is he ever wrong.
Hannah gets right down to business, asking Luke why he’s so disliked by the other men. None of Luke’s answers seem to satisfy her, and his inability to open up or express any emotion finally has Hannah walking away in frustration. Dinner proves just as exasperating, as Luke still refuses to own up to his flaws, instead blaming everyone else for his predicament. After agonizing over her decision, the episode ends with Hannah finally telling Luke, “I can’t give you this rose.”
Away from the show, Hannah spoke to \"GMA\" about the season moving forward with the 12 remaining men.
\"It's like every week it's like bigger and bigger and something more dramatic,\" she said.
About Luke S's departure, Hannah was disappointed, saying, \"I want someone to really fight for me.\"
She adds that \"It would be a lot easier if I didn't have a connection with\" Luke P., but while \"it might be frustrating for everybody back home [to see him still on the show], it was and it was frustrating for me too.\"
Will the remaining Luke stay or go home? We'll have to wait until next week to find out, when \"The Bachelorette\" returns Monday night on ABC.
