You guys, Channel Ten doesn’t want you to panic. It’s very, VERY important to them that you know that they have manufactured another villain for you. The first five minutes of this episode are dedicated to making sure you know that this season of The Bachelor can still be entertaining without Keira, because now we’ve got RACHAEL MWAHAHAHAHAHA.
Rachael is our villain because Alex said that she said something mean to her that nobody else heard so now the producers have lots of soundbites of Alex saying Rachael ‘like, totally can’t be trusted’ and then shots of Rachael with villain music to make sure we know that she is THE VILLAIN.
This is the villain now. ISN'T IT OBVIOUS?
Have we made it clear that this is our villain now?
IT'S A VILLAIN! THIS IS EXCITING TELEVISION, RIGHT? RIGHT?
Can we just cut to Alex secretly making a mould of Dickie Bach’s peen while he’s sleeping so she can use it as a magic voodoo dildo in a midnight soulmate ritual? I’m pretty sure that’s where the entertainment lies from now on.

And yay! Slightly Obsessed Single Mum Alex gets the Single Date! Here’s hoping it ends up with her speeding down the freeway with an unconscious Dickie Bach in the back of her car!
SINGLE DATE TIME!
Channel Ten are still trying to prove to us that they didn’t spend all their Bachie money on magic beans and the new Survivor, so they’ve organised for Dickie Bach to pick up Alex from the Girl Prison in a FERRARI. Because FERRARI = MONEY.
EXCEPT THIS FERRARI IS QUITE CLEARLY ON LOAN FROM THE DEALERSHIP IN EXCHANGE FOR SAYING ‘FERRARI’ AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE ON CAMERA.
Must be back to the dealership by 5.
We then listen to Dickie Bach and Alex say ‘Ferrari' as many times as possible on camera, because that’s where we’re at now - product placement is now paying for these dates.
