In episode seven, the bachelor and the remaining women move in together. If the production had hoped for drama and controversy, they should be right.
Episode seven on “Bachelor” and again you have to ask yourself the question: Do the women know where they are participating? No, even more correct: Does Jana-Maria know where she is involved?
“The Bachelor”: Glamping with the women
After moving out of their shared villa, the candidates have to move to the beach. “Glamping” tents are set up there – “Glamping” stands for glamorous camping. But the camping should not only be glamorous, but also exude a little school trip feeling. Because right next to the women’s tent, the bachelor himself has set up his camp. “Full flashed” is candidate Chiara, while favorite Anna just finds the whole thing “so blatant”.
“Maybe I’ll sneak over it,” announces Jana-Maria after the women and Bachelor Dominik have looked at his accommodation. The joy is clouded directly, however, because Jana-Maria, Chiara and Anna are not allowed on the group date and instead have to lug their suitcases to the temporary domicile. “So it’s not glamorous,” judges Jana-Maria. No, it really isn’t glamorous.
From date to date
On a group date on a boat, Bachelor Dominik gets cream on his back. As his partner, Franzi would “cream his stomach too,” she promises and once again proves her talent for taking every conversation in absurd directions when she tells the bachelor in private that she thought he was Spanish. “We speak the same language,” she says in an interview afterwards.
If the women had just hoped to be able to get closer to the bachelor’s degree more often thanks to the new living situation, they will be disappointed. Because Dominik Stuckmann jumps from date to date in episode seven. After the group yachting he spends a little time with everyone and even brings them breakfast, but then the next activity follows. Chiara and Anna can go on the next date. There, Stuckmann proves that he sometimes lacks the necessary sensitivity. Because instead of asking Chiara to stay with him longer – after all, it’s her birthday the following day – he asks Anna. Visibly frustrated, Chiara marches back to camp while the Bachelor and Anna are dropped off at a luxury villa that once again has an infinity pool. It is now part of the standard repertoire of Bachelor’s single dates.
First night together
In this very pool, Dominik and Anna get closer. The kiss follows, which at least he has been waiting for for a long time. With her, it is difficult to assess whether she actually likes Der Rosenkavalier that much. Anna always remains reserved. While Chiara celebrates her day of honor on the beach, Bachelor asks Anna to sleep with him. The first sleepover date of this season.
The next morning, the two of them stagger out of the rented villa, half asleep, while back in the camp the mood is at zero. It is understandable in the case of Chiara, who certainly imagined her birthday differently. The frozen cake that Dominik and Anna bring to the camp doesn’t help either. “That’s cute,” Chiara struggles, who is then not even asked for another date on her special day. Instead, Dominik would like to be accompanied by Jana-Maria in the evening. It shows once again that she doesn’t seem to have understood which show she’s actually part of. “After the nice date with Anna, do you want a date with me? Can you switch off and just focus on me?” She teases the bachelor, who is visibly annoyed by her jealous comments.
Jana-Maria is jealous again
On the evening single date, for which Jana-Maria appears late, the two drink red wine. Somehow you have to tilt the latently unpleasant mood. “You slept with Anna,” the 29-year-old accuses the Bachelor, whereupon Dominik has to explain that he slept next to her and not with her. “Smooch?” Asks Jana-Maria dozed and Dominik answers: “Well, I’m not in the mood.” Yes, he is actually serious. He doesn’t want to kiss two women in one day, he insists. After all, he does have a little sensitivity. Back in the camp, the party continues around the campfire with plenty of alcohol. “I’m drunking,” explains the bachelor, who says he speaks English all day. Not glamorous at all, Jana-Maria would probably answer.
On the night of the roses, the jealous candidate then confronts him again about the overnight date. She is less serious than the reserved Anna and maybe he doesn’t like that. But she would change her personality for him, she announces, and by now Dominik’s alarm bells should be ringing at the very latest. Apparently they don’t, he likes their “dubious” way, he says Jana-Maria.
Franzi and Emily are eliminated from the race. “These five-minute talks with him were also very nice,” sums up Franzi ironically.
