After delivering a \"band of brothers\" speech and calling for a group hug, Dale got the cocktail party started by asking for \"five minutes with Clare.” But, when those five minutes turned into nearly an hour, the other men sensed something was amiss.

As it turns out, Dale and Clare were off getting extremely cozy in her villa. When Eazy interrupted them with a knock on the door, the two pretended they were having a casual conversation.

Following her conversation with Eazy, Clare was overheard asking a crew member if they could \"hurry the rest along.\"

After Dale \"accidentally\" interrupted Ed's time with Crawley, the guys agreed it was time to call Dale out. When Clare returned, the guys were disappointed, but not shocked, when Dale was handed the date rose. He only poured gasoline on the fire by telling the others that he was \"the best man suited\" to date Clare.

Elsewhere, Zach J. got a solo spa date with Clare that was doomed from the start because she made it known to the camera that she wished it was Dale instead. Zach and Clare’s otherwise pleasant date fizzled when Clare leaned in to kiss Zach and he appeared to pull away, although Zach insisted it was the other way around.

Instead of Clare showing up for the second part of their date, it was host Chris Harrison, who delivered the bad news that Zach's time on the show was over.

Brendan, Joe, Kenny, Bennett, Ben, Jordan C., Ivan, Riley, Zac C. and Demar took part in a “roast” hosted by comedian Margaret Cho, where everyone was the victim.

The rest of the men, including Dale, were brought in as the audience. Unsurprisingly, Dale and his self-proclaimed \"frontrunner\" status were the main targets. The hostility wasn't lost on Clare, whose one-on-one conversations with the guys revolved around their rising animosity towards him.

Clare is seen talking to a producer at one point, telling her, \"You dished on my fiancé so hard, like, I can’t be doing that s---. Like, it doesn't feel right.\"

Her decision to withhold the date rose made the men conclude that Dale won her heart, and the others threatened to walk away from the competition.

\"Are the shocking rumors true?\" Harrison teased earlier in the episode, referring to the reports of Clare finding her future husband just weeks into the show and being replaced by Tayshia Adams, a contestant on Colton Underwood’s season of \"The Bachelor.\"

We seem to get at least part of the answer when Adams turns up in the teaser for next week's episode.
