The candidates had to endure countless sports exercises and empty phrases, now it’s done: Dennis and Sebastian hand out the last roses. But the real winner is only one woman.
Protect your daughters, the bachelors are back in Germany. The big finale is coming up and Dennis has his very last date with trampoline Rebecca. “I’m looking forward to spending time together,” he exults. The former “Bachelor” candidate Lisa would probably translate what he means by this as: “Lecki lecki.” The shock follows: Trampoline-Rebecca has a cold, as she says, and asks Dennis not to come too close to her. “Oh God, oh God,” says Dennis.
Then he is also denied togetherness. Trampoline-Rebecca’s father and her best friend unexpectedly join us. Infatuation is in the air, noticeable through the television. Things crackle between Trampoline-Rebecca’s father and Dennis. It exists: love at first sight. “I saw the guy talking – whoa!” says the father. “I knew that was him. That could be him.”
During the conversation, the father pines over the bachelor. Then he grabs “the boss” and sits down with him at the bar. “I used to be a guy like him,” enthuses the father. That explains a lot. Hopefully Dennis chooses Trampoline-Rebecca to give the budding romance a chance. He and his father prove that love knows no age.
Meanwhile, Sebastian meets the always amiable Eva, who in the season seemed like a wounded deer among macaque monkeys. Ever since she had to ask for a kiss on the date, it seems clear: she won’t get the final rose. But continuing to give her hope doesn’t do any harm. “I have the feeling that I’m on a very strong level with Eva,” says Sebastian. Here, too, the family members don’t have to wait long. Eva, her sister and their father greet each other with tears of happiness. Sebastian sits next to Eva so tensely that Trampoline-Rebecca’s father and Dennis would look like a couple who have been married for ten years. Eva can also “hand it out properly,” says her father Sebastian. “But nice.” Sebastian looks surprised. Did he get scared?
“Very sensible,” is Eva’s sister’s opinion of the Bachelor. So she finds him boring.
Eva advises him to listen to his heart. She says about herself: “My heart is better than before. I don’t want to question it too much,” as if she already suspected that the last night of roses would not turn out very rosy for her.
Three Katjas are waiting for Bachelor Dennis
Dennis is now expecting his second final date: with three Katjas. More precisely with Katja and her two best friends, who could also be her clones. One of the Katjas invites you to a job interview. Dennis should describe his chosen one, original Katja, in three words. “Emotional, determined and she definitely gets her way,” replies Dennis in eleven words. He receives a promise. The Katjas are happy about the fourth Katja in the group. Dennis is “like a male Katja”.
Meanwhile, Sebastian’s last date with Larissa promises to be exciting. Larissa was already close to leaving in the semifinals. Her gut feeling warned her about Sebastian’s quick declarations of love.
“I wouldn’t say missed at this point,” she says, when asked about the previous separation. “I’m happy to see him again.” The mother expressed herself similarly dryly: “With my daughter, that couldn’t have just been a pure vacation.” It’s questionable why Larissa is still there. The desire to come to the jungle camp must be great.
In the end there is only one winner
Then finally, the big moment: The Bachelors drive together in the limo to the night of the decision. “There wouldn’t have been anyone better,” says Sebastian about Dennis. A last spark of hope glimmers: Will the two of them run away together, open a fitness studio in Honolulu and start a new life with partner shell necklaces around their necks? Or will Dennis go straight to Trampoline-Rebecca’s father? But no, we go to the final rose.
Styled as a human disco ball, one woman after the other appears on the trampoline, Rebecca. A final Dennis monologue follows. For Trampoline-Rebecca, he lists all the shared experiences again so that the rejection really hurts. You can see how the images of a bouncy wedding fade to orange in her mind’s eye. “I would have liked to give him a slap,” says Trampolin-Rebecca. That’s why Dennis and Katja snog, hopefully it’s the original Katja.
A surprise awaits Sebastian in the next room. For the first time since the beginning of the Bachelor era, a finale will be touching. So touching that the screenwriters will take notes inspired by “Rosamunde Pilcher”. “Eva, you always told me to listen to my heart,” Sebastian says with glassy eyes. “My heart beats stronger for Dennis.” No, it would have been too nice. “My heart beats stronger for Larissa,” says Sebastian.
Candidate Eva is too nice for the world
And Eve? Proves the spirit of a Mother Teresa. She nods with an understanding smile, sways briefly as if she’s about to fall over, and then says in all seriousness: “I’m so incredibly grateful for everything you’ve done for me. For everything you’ve seen in me. For repairing my heart .” During the season, she often talked about her mother’s death and how her last boyfriend cheated on her. “I’m proud of you,” she tells Sebastian.
Enough: Not even a mother praises her child so effusively when he or she has painted an ugly picture. Even Sebastian has to sniffle and finds it all “pretty sad.”
While angel Eva floats away, Larissa approaches. “I would accept the rose with a feeling of… well. Hey, there’s no way I’m in a relationship now after meeting him for four hours in ten weeks.”
She shouldn’t act like that: In other trash formats, the candidates get married without ever seeing each other before the day of the wedding. Sebastian decides – surprise – despite all his doubts for Larissa. She ignores her gut feeling, which as we all know should never be ignored, and accepts the rose. This reveals the winner of the season: Eva. The next and most understanding bachelorette in the world would have been found.
We would be happy to welcome Larissa, Dennis or Sebastian to the cockroach coffin.
