Right. He goes, even if she wants to take out anger, she knows she can do it on me and like I won't be going anywhere, and that he's always loved her. Right. Jordan asks Dakota about seeing Taylor on the Bachelorette, and Dakota can tell you can tell he's like kind of mad about that. Okay. Michelle Harris: Jordan asked Dakota about seeing Taylor on The Bachelorette and Dakota can tell, you can tell he's like kind of mad about that. And he says that, you know, she could be in a right place where she's opening up to these guys, potentially could get engaged to one of them. Dakota says it's gonna hurt because he really did love Taylor. Mat: Be in a place where opening up to these guys, potentially could get engaged to one of them. Right. Dakota says it's gonna hurt because he really did love Taylor. Well then why'd you treat her like such shit, dude? I mean it goes both ways. Yeah, yeah. Dakota says he would be lying if he didn't say that there's a piece of him somewhere hoping that something takes and they could like Michelle Harris: it goes both ways they bolted. Dakota says he would be lying if he didn't say that there's a piece of him somewhere hoping that something takes a turn and they could live happily ever after. And I was like this is a little foreshadowing. Mat: Right. Michelle Harris: So yeah, Taylor, definitely in this relationship is no saint at all, but he eggs her on and doesn't Mat: Yeah. Michelle Harris: like let her move on. But then again, she like calls him when she finds out he slept with someone. It's like it's just the back and forth.

So it's important that they invite Dakota to LA for their trip with Mom Talk to Dancing with the Stars so he can be with Dad Talk and make some Mat: So it's important that they invite Dakota to LA for their trip with mom talk to dancing with the stars so he can be with Dad Talk and be some Michelle Harris: content. He's hoping that him and Taylor can just be agreeable. I'm like, Jordan, this is the worst idea. The best idea is for them to be apart. Taylor has to go on the strip because Mat: Taylor can just be agreeable. I'm like George. Yeah, that's yeah now. The best idea is for them to be apart. Right. Taylor to go on this trip because Michelle Harris: the girls are the one going to the premiere. The guys are going on the strip. They're all staying in the same house together. And you think it's a great idea for Dakota to come? I'm like, dear, Mat: Right. The guys are going on the strip. They're all staying in the same house together.

That yeah, that might help. Michelle Harris: Jesse tries to help Taylor with some ideas of how she could start a conversation with the guys. Taylor asks her to demonstrate. So Jesse goes up to the guy behind Taylor and asks him. So they all have clipboards that have prompts. so you have to find someone that's left-handed and then fill in your square with their name and all that stuff. So she goes up to the guy and goes, what could you fill out for me on my clipboard? Mat: Jessie tries to help Taylor with some ideas of how she could start a conversation with the guys.

Miranda at one point is like. Mat: And he responds and he goes, I'd like pineapple on my pizza. So then it starts the conversation. Right. Miranda at one point is like Jesse's flirting as second nature to her. She thinks it's probably like a letdown to all the other guys, but the guys like she did tell guys like, Hey, I'm married, I'm just here to vet the guys for these girls. Right, right. But it keeps going back and like Miranda and Taylor they don't know how to talk to these men. And Jesse's just like having fun Michelle Harris: Jessie's flirting a second nature to her.

And then you're talking with them and it's like, yeah, the most outgoing people are gonna come grab you right away. Mat: Actually is a very good thing to point out because the first night you're meeting all thirty men, then you have to go into the house, you have to meet all these men, they have to come interrupt and grab you for a conversation. Right. And then you're talking with them and it's like, yeah, the most outgoing people are gonna come grab you right away. Right, right. And then you have to give out a first impression rose, but maybe the f person not like Michelle Harris: And then you have to give out a first impression Rose, but maybe the person that is your person might have not made an impression on you. So it's like, she was like, so you're going to see all these guys trying to flex. you got to look behind them to who's who's behind them to see maybe if those people are your people before you just send them home because they didn't make an impression right away. Mat: Is your person might have not made an impression on you, so it's like she's like, So you're gonna see all these guys trying to flex, you gotta look behind them to like who's Okay if those people are your people before you just send them home. Because they didn't make an impression anyway. Yeah. Michelle Harris: Taylor in an interview says she thinks she needs someone in the middle of her ex-husband in Dakota since they are polar opposites. So she says that her ex-husband was a little bit more reserved, homebody, private, on the shy side, and then they got divorced and she immediately went to like life of the party. And so she's like, I just need that middle ground that's gonna ground me. Mat: Taylor in an interview says she thinks she needs someone in the middle of her ex husband in Dakota since they were polar opposites. So she says that her ex-husband was a little bit more reserved, homebody, private, on the sky side. And then they got divorced and she immediately went to life party. Right, okay. And so she's like, I just need that middle ground Yeah, yeah, right. Michelle Harris: Taylor says her perfect guy would shoot his shot when he got a chance but wouldn't go head to head with anyone. Mat: Taylor says her perfect guy would shoot his shot when he got a chance, but wouldn't go head to head with anyone. Michelle Harris: Miranda hopes Taylor doesn't sell sabotage because she will take a step back when she thinks she doesn't deserve it. A producer asked Miranda since she has known Taylor for a long time what Mat: Miranda hopes Taylor doesn't self sabotage because she will take a step back when she thinks she doesn't deserve it. Okay. A producer asked Miranda, since she know has known Taylor for a long time what Michelle Harris: she thinks is going on and Miranda says she thinks that there's a void in Taylor's life that Taylor's hoping can be filled by a man, but she fears she won't find a man until she fills that void herself. Mat: Miranda says she thinks that there's a void in Taylor's life that Taylor's hoping can be filled by a man. but she fears she won't find a man until she fills that void herself. Which I think is very good advice. you gotta be okay with being on your own. Yeah. one hundred percent before Michelle Harris: Which I think is very good advice. you gotta be okay with being on your own. 100 % before you can allow someone into your life. And she just keeps running back to Dakota. So don't think she's been able to be by herself even though they've been quote unquote separated. Mat: Right, right. And she just keeps running back I don't think she's been able be by herself quote unquote separated. Right. We're back in LA and the girls are arriving for the dancing with the stars premiere. Jordan then calls Dakota to convince him to fly out. Michelle Harris: back in LA and the girls, all the girls are arriving for the Dancing with the Stars premiere. Jordan then calls Dakota to convince him to fly out. Mat: And Jacob's sitting there agreeing and James looks like this is bad. Michelle Harris: And Jacob is sitting there agreeing and Jace's face looks like this is bad. Mat: What the hell are we doing here? 'cause this is the first time Jace has been with these men because he didn't go to the villa. right, okay. And even more so Michelle Harris: And this is funny because this is the first time Jace has been with these men because he didn't go to the villa. right. OK. And even more so, you don't see him really interact with that group a lot, that that men group. So like he is sitting in the room with a couple of conversations. like as the night goes on, you don't see Jace. So I think he is definitely a little bit more. Leave me the fuck out of all this. Like I don't want anything to do with it. Mat: You don't see him really interact with that group a lot. Okay. Yeah, yeah. So he is sitting in the room with a couple conversations, but as the night goes on, you don't see Jace. Okay. So I think he is definitely little bit more leave me the fuck out of here. Michelle Harris: Jesse asked Taylor if Dakota is still coming. So I guess Taylor knew that there was a possibility. Taylor says she did tell Dakota that if he wanted to come, he could, and she doesn't give a rat's ass. Taylor says if he does Mat: Okay. Taylor says she did tell Dakota if he wanted to come he could and she doesn't give a rat's ass. All right. Taylor says if he does come Michelle Harris: come, she'll just bring guys back to the house if he's there to piss him off. The girls think it would be so awkward, and Taylor says Mat: It be so awkward and Taylor says Michelle Harris: that's what I want. Mat: Then Connor shows up the house to say hi to everyone and he shows up wearing a Warkit t shirt, so W H A R K. So Whitney and Mark put together, so instead of work it, we're Okay, I got you. then it has Whitney and Mark on the t shirt. Okay. He's bringing like he has a staff. Michelle Harris: Connor shows up to house to say hi to everyone and he shows up wearing a work it t-shirt. So W-H-A-R-K. So Whitney and Mark put together. So instead of work it, work it. And then it has Whitney and Mark on the t-shirt. He's bringing, like he has a stack of them and he walks into the room. He was so funny. goes, okay girls, I have an offer for you. If you vote for Whitney, you get this nice t-shirt. Mat: T shirt. Michelle Harris: anyone for the taking and Michaela takes one, which I was like kind of surprised. So Michaela puts Mat: Taking and Michaela takes one. Michelle Harris: it on, they take a photo of her in it and they send it to Whitney and then she ends up bringing it with her to the premiere and like putting it on after the show. So I thought that was a cute little Mat: send it to Whitney and then she ends up bringing it with her to the premiere. Okay, right, right. so I thought that was Michelle Harris: moment. Mat: a cute moment. Okay. Leila and Mason then Michelle Harris: Layla and Mason then show up. Connor breaks it to the girls that Demi is staying at a hotel. Michaela says, yeah, she isn't filming anymore. And this is the first time that a majority like Taylor, Jessie, Miranda, all of them, no, I think Miranda knew, but the rest of the girls kind of found out. Right. Mat: This is the first time that a majority like Taylor, Jesse, Miranda, all of them no, I think Miranda knew, but the rest of the girls found it. Okay, so this is like after the reunion she's not filming anymore. So Demi has Michelle Harris: So Demi had texted Layla saying she was only doing Dancing with the Stars and she will have to fill her in after that. Because Layla was asking, hey, you're staying at the house with us. And Demi responds, unfortunately not, only Dancing with the Stars. I'll have to fill you in later. So it seems like Layla and Demi are maybe OK, but they have a conversation Mat: Layla saying she was only doing dancing with the stars and she will have to fill her in after that. Because Layla was asking, Hey, are you staying at the house with us? And Demi responds, Unfortunately not only dancing with the stars. I'll have to fill you in later. Okay. So it seems like Layla and Demi are maybe okay. Right. They have a conversation. Michelle Harris: later that then I'm like, well, why was that your text response then? Why would you even respond? Mat: Right, right. Okay, yeah. Then Layla says, Are you not filming anymore? And Divine goes, As of right now, no And Jesse and the girls are like, As of right now, like what the fuck either you're in or you're out. Right, right. Michelle Harris: Then Layla says, are you not filming anymore? And Demi goes, as of right now, no. And Jesse and the girls are like, as of right now, what the fuck does that mean? Either you're in or you're out. And the girls are frustrated that people keep coming and going. At this point, Connor is like, I feel awkward being in this conversation, and goes to leave the Mat: At this point Connor's like I feel awkward being in this conversation. it was still leaving the Michelle Harris: room. And before leaving the room, Connor goes, speak your truth, but don't be mean. And Jesse just goes, okay, Connor. Mat: Speak your truth, but don't be mean. And then she just goes, Okay, Connor Jesse says Demi is not being forced to leave and she's creating her own chaos. Michelle Harris: Jessie says Demi is not being forced to leave and she's creating her own chaos and choosing to leave. All the girls agree with this. They say that when someone leaves, the other girls have to pick up the slack. So this was a really interesting point that Taylor specifically keeps making throughout the episode. Mat: Okay. They say that when someone leaves, the other girls have to pick up the slack. So this was a really interesting point that Taylor specifically keeps making throughout the episode. Taylor basically calls it unprofessional and she shouldn't be able to pick and choose when and where she shows up to. So the fact that she knows that she's going dancing with the stars isn't fair. Michelle Harris: Taylor basically calls it unprofessional and she shouldn't be able to pick and choose when and where she shows up to. So the fact that she's not coming to the house, but she's going dancing with the stars isn't fair. Mat: She points out the fact that when one person decides to not film Michelle Harris: She points out the fact that when one person decides to not film, the filming responsibility then falls to all the other girls, which isn't fair. So she's like, we're all trying to put our lives out there, but we also have lives. So when you decide to just up and leave filming, those gaps have to be filled in. Mat: the filming responsibility then falls to all the other girls, which isn't fair. Right. So she's like, We're all trying to put our lives out there, but we also have lives. So when you decide to just up and leave Right. Those gaps have to be filled in. Right. Okay. And so more filming falls on them. So I'm like, you don't even think about that. Like this is definitely breaking the fourth wall of like reality T V. Yeah. But like you don't even think about that as a viewer of like Michelle Harris: And so more filming falls on them. So I'm like, you don't even think about that. Like, this is definitely breaking the fourth wall of like reality TV. But like, you don't even think about that as a viewer of like, this is why a lot of these girls are so pissed. like secret lives. Right. Secret lives. Yeah, no, no, no. How hard is it to make a TikTok? Mat: This is why a lot of these girls are so pissed. secret lives. Right. Not mom talk. Right. Okay, I'm I'm like, okay, how how hard is it to make a a TikTok without having with having six people instead of seven? She's talking about secret lives. Okay, I was like, What is this bullshit? Like, who cares? Okay, okay, so now they have to like be more involved and maybe more one on ones or like more shit at like more drama. Michelle Harris: No, no, she's having six people instead. No, she's talking about secret lives, having the film crew show up like, yeah, no, no, she's talking about secret lives and Mormon wives. Yeah. And. More drama, maybe Michaela's story comes back into it with her skin and her therapy, Mat: Right and her therapy. Michelle Harris: like just all that stuff. Yeah. Mat: more one on ones, we gotta be at Jesse's house. There's nothing going on, so now we gotta go over and and talk with Whitney and Connor and Okay, all right. I was like, What how fucking hard is it to make TikToks with six people instead of seven people? Okay, all right. I was gonna say something and then I was like, I'll just let this go and then you were like, it's it's the actual reality T V show. Okay, all right, okay. This makes a lot more sense to me now. Michelle Harris: Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. All right. That was like, no, not not the Tic Tocs. All right. I was going to say something and I was like, I just let this go. then you're like, it's the actual reality. Yeah. Yeah. It's the actual reality. It's like, why are you not understanding this? All right. The girls leave to go to Dancing with the Stars on the way. Taylor asked Macy how her podcast went with Harry. So let's back up a second. please.

And then you invite him out. Michelle Harris: And then he says, he hopes that's not the case because they need to move on from one another. You knew exactly Mat: He says, but he hopes that's not the case because they need to move on from one another. Exactly. Michelle Harris: what you were doing when you invited him out because you didn't want the drama to be on you. You wanted to deflect it onto someone else and you knew that this would happen. Take accountability, Jordan. Mat: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Take accountability, Jordan. Michelle Harris: Take ownership.

She doesn't want to film, but she has Mat: It's the theatrics of how he it and it's like, Wait, wait, wait, hold on. She doesn't want to film but she has no Michelle Harris: no problem going on dancing with the stars in her dress and sitting with the secret lives of Mormon wives, but she's not filming. And they're like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mat: problem going on dancing with the stars in her dress and sitting with the secret lives of more and wives. But she's not filming. And they're like, Yeah Yeah, that's the gist of it. Michelle Harris: We got that. Like we're already there. Jesse then like doesn't even acknowledge that. And she goes, I'm just so sick of people leaving and then expecting them to like have us chase them for answers. Like don't make me call you to be like, why did you quit? Why don't you meet with us and be like, Hey you guys, I'm leaving because of this. Mat: chase them for answers. don't make me call you. Yeah. Why did you quit? Why don't you meet with us? Right. And be like, hey you guys, I'm leaving because this. Michelle Harris: Right. What's Jordan's deal? Mat: Right. What's Jordan's deal? Is he slow or like is he just trying to like insert himself and be part of it? Does it just like take him time to like click and then he's talks or Michelle Harris: he just trying to insert himself and be part of it? Just like take him time to like click and like box? don't know, but like I honestly think he doesn't want the drama to be about him, but he wants- all the other- Mat: the drama be about him. he's trying to emphasize all the other drama other than what's going on in his relationship. Yeah, you can't if you can't be bold. No, especially when there is drama surrounding you. Yeah. And you don't want that, you should probably just like kind of step back a little bit and Yeah, with Laylo. Yeah. Simmer down. No, he definitely loves being the center of attention, but he just doesn't want it to be about Michelle Harris: But he wants to be the center of attention. Yeah, you can't. You can't be both. No, especially when there is drama surrounding you. Yeah. And you don't want that. You should probably just like kind of step back a little bit. Yeah, like lay low. Yeah. Like simmer down. Yeah. No, he definitely loves being the center of attention, but he just doesn't want it to be about him. Right. OK. Interesting. Or if it is about him, he's not wrong. Mat: Right. Okay. Interesting. Or if it is about him, he's not wrong. At this point though, Harry shows up. And Dakota is pissed. So Mason tells Michelle Harris: At this point though, Harry shows up and Dakota is pissed. So Mason tells Dakota that Harry is there for Taylor. Dakota says it's not cool. And he tells Mason he feels like he's going to get into a fight tonight. Mat: Taylor. Dakota says it's not cool and he tells Mason he feels like he's going to get into a fight tonight. jeez. Michelle Harris: Harry asks Taylor what she's looking for and Taylor says a green flag and Macy says she attracts red ones. Mat: Harry asks Taylor what she's looking for, and Taylor says a green flag. And Macy says she red ones. And he thought inviting Harry was a green flag. Macy in an interview earlier says that he was known for being a fuckboy when she was explaining who Harry was. So clearly they know his reputation, and why did she say she's looking for a green flag? This is the biggest red flag, I think, in all of reality TV. Michelle Harris: And you thought inviting Harry was a green flag?

Mat: But she is always trying to rub things in his face, and like this is malicious. Okay. Jordan then tells Taylor not to rub it in Dakota's face, and Taylor tells him, Don't even dare, he rubs everything in my face, and says that she doesn't give a funny fuck. When Jordan kind of like pushes back on like Michelle Harris: When Jordan pushes back on like, what did he rub in your face? She kind of goes off in a little bit of tangent, but her big sticking point was, well, when I had a newborn and he was talking to like, what's her face, you know, that wasn't fair to me. So like, I really just don't give a fuck. And then she like walks away and Jessie goes, that's my bachelorette. And Taylor goes, I'm going to have a Mat: face she goes off on a little bit of tangent but her big sticking point was well when I had a newborn and he was talking to like what's her face you know that wasn't fair to me so like I I really just don't give a fuck.
