The season's big twist apparently made a huge difference in just one short day, especially for Shanae Ankney and Logan Palmer, Rodney Mathews and Lace Morris, Andrew Spencer and Brittany Galvin, and Jacob Rapini and Jill Chin.
Shanae quickly set her sights on newcomer Tyler Norris, but he also appeared interested in Brittany.
Shanae said he made her feel "turned on" and "hot and bothered." She seemed infatuated with his muscles and abs, although Logan was back on the Paradise beach thinking about her constantly.
Logan, however, accepted a date invitation from Sarah Hamrick, and the pair ended up making out in the ocean.
Rodney also went out on a date with Eliza Isichei, whom he essentially called wife material.
While Rodney was making a new connection, Lace was worried, emotional and torn up inside over the thought of potentially losing her guy to another woman.
Andrew caught eyes with newcomer Jessenia Cruz. The pair went on a date and bonded over their "nerdy" hobbies and a heart-shaped pizza.
"I really like you... and would like to see if I could be a safe place for you," Jessenia told the football player.
And Jacob wasted no time pursuing newcomer Kate Gallivan, who bragged about how she was going to leave the show with exactly what she came for, even if it meant stealing Jacob away from Jill.

"If I walk in and Jacob has another b-tch on his lap, I'll blow his d-ck clean off," Jill joked in a confessional, before footage showed her cuddling with crystals from her first one-on-one date with Tarzan.
However, the strongest couples in Paradise appear to still be standing firm: Brandon Jones and Serene Russell, Victoria Fuller and Johnny DePhillipo, and Genevieve Parisi and Aaron Clancy.
And Michael Allio and Danielle Maltby are also focused on each other and seem to have the potential to fall in love.
Bachelor in Paradise bartender Wells Adams recently teased of this season, "There's the comedy, the makeout sessions, the Boom-Boom Room, [and] you know, the love at the end of it."
Wells also called Bachelor in Paradise's new season the ABC show's "sexiest" yet.
"Everyone's in the best shape they've ever been in... and this season is the sexiest season that we've ever had. I think everyone's gonna be excited about that," Wells said.
Andrew previously told People how the show's eighth season was "life-changing" for him and "takes off at a high speed" that "doesn't stop."
And Serene recently shared how it's going to be the "most dramatic" season yet.

Jesse Palmer called the Bachelor in Paradise season "crazy"
"It's insane down here. It's absolutely crazy," Jesse told Us Weekly while the season was still filming."There's all these people. There is just so much chaos, so much drama, and never-before-seen things down here taking place in Paradise... And we've been switching things up. We've been changing things up and it's hard to keep track of it all, to be honest."
Jesse said the show was already "amazing" at that point, adding how he was "having so much fun."
"I always wondered as a fan of the show, 'How paradise-y was Paradise?' And I can tell you, it is so much fun. It really is paradise. This place is magic," Jesse gushed.

Bachelor in Paradise's Season 8 twist also gives the women new men
After Season 8's bachelorettes gave roses to the season's bachelors at the second Rose Ceremony, Bachelor in Paradise unleashed a new twist similar to the "Casa Amor" twist that was featured on the CBS seasons of Love Island.The "Casa Amor"-like twist sent the Bachelor in Paradise season's existing bachelorettes to a new location for a week while their bachelor partners remained at the Paradise resort and met a brand-new group of women, putting the bonds and romances of pre-existing couples to the test.
Once the existing women left, the Paradise bachelors were joined by new bachelorettes Sarah Hamrick, Kate Gallivan, Eliza Isichei, Jessenia Cruz, and Florence Moerenhout from Bachelor in Paradise: Australia's first two seasons.
However, Bachelor in Paradise bachelors weren't the only ones that got to meet potential new suitors. During their week away, the season's existing women were also joined by former The Bachelorette bachelors Tyler Norris, Alex Bordyukov, Rick Leach, Olumide "Olu" Onajide, and Adam Todd from The Bachelorette: Australia's sixth season.
Eliza Isichei ends up in a love triangle
Amid the "Casa Amor"-like twist, Justin Glaze was able to return to the beach -- it's unclear why he was allowed to -- and took interest in Eliza.But Rodney Mathews also set his eyes on Eliza during the twist. He broke up with Lace for a shot at love with Eliza.
Eliza chose to give Rodney a rose and walk Justin out during the third Rose Ceremony.
Once she returned to Bachelor in Paradise's beach, however, Eliza told Rodney that she felt pressured to give him a rose. She therefore self-eliminates instead of pursuing a romance with Rodney.
The women handed out the roses again at the third Rose Ceremony
At the third Rose Ceremony of Bachelor in Paradise's eighth season, the women gave out the roses.Olu and Rick were sent home after the "Casa Amor"-like twist because they failed to find connections.

Jacob Rapini left Jill Chin for Kate, which resulted in Jill being sent home, but then Kate began dating Logan Palmer.
Sarah Hamrick reportedly left the beach because her grandmother died, not for a lack of romantic options.
The last three women who entered Paradise were Mara Agreat, Ency Abedin, and Lyndsey Windham, all from Clayton's The Bachelor season.
"When Lyndsey came on the beach, there weren't many options, so she asked Logan, [and] Kate told him she didn't want him going on a date so Lyndsey just went home," Carbone wrote in his June 28 blog post.
Six couples had been established when the season began wrapping up

The Bachelor in Paradise season ended with multiple engagements
Carbone reported back in late June, "The only couple I'm almost positive is gonna get engaged is Brandon and Serene. In fact, I'd be surprised if they didn't. Outside of that, anyone's fair game to break up."Brandon Jones did propose marriage at the Final Rose Ceremony to Serene Russell, who left Bachelor in Paradise with a diamond on her finger.
And Johnny DePhillipo wasn't ready to get engaged to Gabby Windey on The Bachelorette, but he popped the question to Victoria Fuller and the couple got engaged!
