Things pick up right where they left off and Demi is talking to Chris H. Demi tells Chris about the woman from back home and Chris thanks her for coming out to him. She tells Chris she can't imagine not having the woman back home in her lift and Chris asks if she can imagine Derek not in her life. She takes a minute to think about this. So the answer to that is no. There's no resolution of identification on next steps.
Derek mopes to the other Chris. Katie pushes Demi on what she's going to do.
Kristina is plotting to get Blake rose week. Caitlyn calls Kristina an emotional vampire and fakely pulls her aside. Caitlyn asks Kristina what her deal is and Kristina gets defensive quickly. Caitlyn, to her credit, stays calm.
Relationship Montage
We see a weirdo montage of Clay working out on the beach and Nicole watching him. Katie is sending Chris mixed messages asking if they're good and then tells him she could date other women that come down the steps. Jen Saviano walks down and Dean starts drooling. Caelynn says Jen is one of Blake's Stagecoach castoffs. Blake denies this. Jen pulls Dean aside next and Dean does another "Can I talk to you Caelynn" thing, which I find incredibly annoying and not funny. Jen pulls Chris aside next and Katie is regretting her games from this morning.
Jen asks Chris on the date and he says yes. He goes to talk to Katie and says he wants to go on the date for clarity. Rather than backtrack and acknowledge that she messed up before, she agrees that he should get clarity. Oh, to be 20-something again and dating.
Jen and Chris' Date
Jen and Chris have a date on a catamaran and Jen doesn't know what a catamaran is. Katie continues to cry about what she did and the water is getting really rough on the date. Chris gets sick and it's gross to hear him retching. They get back to the beach and Chris tells Jen that he wants to continue their date. They walk in, briefly say hello to everyone and continue to somewhere more private. Derek tries to reassure Katie as Jen and Chris get into the hot tub and start making out. Chris is torn between the two women but says he thinks him and Katie might be in different points in their life. It's hard to tell how sincere Chris is here.
Apparently Nicole can sing. And while her voice is fine, she is a terrible songwriter. TERRIBLE. Clay of course loves it but he also probably loves her prancing around. Also, he is as dumb as a rock. These two deserve each other.
Jen goes to bed and Chris goes to find Katie. Katie admits she didn't mean what she said earlier and she wants to be with him. Chris seems doubtful and doesn't believe her.
The Next Morning
Katie and Blake talk about how nobody who watches Paradise will think they're fun and then run down the couples. Derek continues to mope about Demi and it seems he's talking to everyone about her but not actually speaking to her. It's boring after a while.
Chris H. walks in and of course nobody is happy to see him. He grabs Demi and tells her to go upstairs. No surprise, it's this woman Kristian. It's very very cute to see the two of them. Demi looks the happiest she's been in days.
Demi fills Kristian in on what's been happening on Paradise and her relationship with Derek, but she tells Kristian that the longer she was away from her the more she thought of Kristian and that she wants to choose Kristian, which isn't really a surprise based on what we've seen the last week or so. Kristian's not happy about the connection that Demi and Derek has, which is normal. Demi tells Kristian she needs to break up with Derek.
Demi finds Derek and gives him the breakup talk and tells him Kristian is here and he gets to watch the two of them make out and be happy with each other. Derek takes it as well as you'd expect but spends a lot of time crying. He wants to meet the woman that stole his woman.
I can definitely see why there's a push for Derek to be the Bachelor now. I think I'd be okay with Derek as the Bachelor if things don't work out with Mike. Demi asks Kristian if she'd like to stay in Paradise with Demi. She introduces Kristian to everyone. This will certainly change the rose ceremony.
Everyone is confused by who the new woman is and how she isn't a part of Bachelor Nation. Most people are happy for Demi. Demi and Kristian get a date card. Derek is nowhere to be seen. Oh wait, there he is. That must be hard. Kristian says that her and Demi still need to talk things through. It is really hard to see Derek have to watch all of this. I'm surprised he doesn't just leave Paradise.
Kristian basically says that Demi can never do something like this again. Demi talks about her fear of commitment but she loves Kristian and she's never wanted to commit to anyone else before. Demi knows she has a lot to make up to Kristian after her Paradise shenanigans.
As sweet and touching as that was, we see at the end that Demi doesn't know who Nelson Mandela is. Wells and I are both mortified.
