On the latest episode that aired last week, Blake Moynes and Jess Girod broke up because they simply weren't falling in love with each other. Blake decided to self-eliminate and leave Paradise single, but Jess chose to stick around and enjoy her last few days in Mexico.
"I don't regret it, but I hate that it ended already. I didn't come here for fun; I came here to find somebody," Blake told the Bachelor in Paradise cameras in his final words.
"It was clear it wasn't happening. At this point, I just feel like I've tried it all. I've tried three times and failed. Oh man. I feel like a failure... [I] feel like you have things to offer. Why are you not figuring it out? I have no idea."
Once Jess became single again, Tanner Courtad, Brayden Bowers, and Taylor Pegg all hit on her.
Mercedes Northup said she felt "used" and "played" by Tyler Norris after he had dropped a bombshell on her that he was still waiting for a spark to develop between them.
"I feel like you're here just having fun, and that really pisses me off. Now I feel like my time has been wasted," Mercedes told Tyler, who then self-eliminated.
"I could've left here with someone and had an amazing relationship, and now we're at the end and I can't. You weren't honest with me... I came here to find my person. I want a relationship, I want to get married, and I want to start a family. All of my expectations went to sh-t, and now I feel stupid."
But Jordan Vandergriff decided to pursue Mercedes and give a romance with her a shot.
Meanwhile, Olivia Lewis felt "seen and heard" by Michael Barbour, who had surprised the bachelorette with a cute date.
And Aaron B. spoke to Eliza Isichei about how he looked forward to meeting her family and introducing her to his family.

At the Rose Ceremony preceding Fantasy Suites, Kat Izzo gave her rose to John Henry Spurlock; Kylee Russell handed her rose to Aven Jones; Olivia offered her rose to Michael; and Sam Picco gave her rose to Peter Cappio.
Jess decided to give her rose to Tanner, Mercedes opted to give her rose to Jordan, and then it was Rachel Recchia's turn.

Rachel, with a rose in hand, asked for a second to think, and she told host Jesse Palmer that it was time for her to go.
"Even if I'm not leaving with anyone, for me, Paradise has been able to make me stand alone on my own two feet for the first time," Rachel said in her final words.
"I feel like I was meant to be here in Paradise, even though I don't have a partner I'm walking away with. It has been the most amazing experience, and I'm happy."
Rachel's decision to self-eliminate ultimately ended Paradise for Brayden and Taylor.
Brayden said he felt "deflated" to be leaving Bachelor in Paradise without a partner.

"I burned a bridge with somebody who's an amazing woman, and it's a tough lesson to learn and it's a hard pill to swallow. But I have to learn from it. I've got to do better and I've got to be better."
So what can viewers expect to see on the Bachelor in Paradise finale for Season 9?
Bachelor in Paradise host Jesse Palmer recently teased to Entertainment Tonight how "something really special and unique" happens this season.
Jesse seemed to be teasing a couple getting married on Bachelor in Paradise, which has been confirmed in trailers of the show. Jesse appears to officiate the ceremony.
Over the past several months, Reality Steve spoiler blogger Steve Carbone has reported numerous spoilers for Season 9 of Bachelor in Paradise -- including that Season 7 couple Mari Pepin-Solis and Kenny Braasch are the ones who are shown getting married in the trailer's footage.
On July 17, Carbone reported that Kat Izzo, Eliza Isichei, Aaron Bryant, and John Henry Spurlock all made it to the end of filming.
As viewers have seen on the ABC reality dating series Kat is smitten with John Henry, and Aaron and Eliza agreed to be official boyfriend and girlfriend about halfway through the season.
Carbone heard earlier this summer that both couples are currently still together and dating.
As far as the alleged evidence goes, a couple of days before Bachelor in Paradise wrapped filming on Season 9, a patron had sent Carbone a photo of what appeared to be a whiteboard used by the show's production team.

Carbone tweeted in July that the patron was "walking by an office at the Vidanta Resort" in Mexico and spotted the whiteboard, snapping a photo.
The whiteboard read, "Girls Schedules," and Kat and Eliza's names -- as well as their "pick up" times -- were visibly written on it.

Carbone said he ultimately received "confirmation" that Kat was with John Henry and that Eliza was with Aaron B. after Bachelor in Paradise taped.
Carbone proceeded to tweet, "(SPOILER): Kat and John Henry are absolutely together, and I'm pretty sure they got engaged at the end of BIP filming."
Carbone also posted a video of Kat and John Henry sitting at a table together -- with a male friend -- outside at Rudee's restaurant in Virginia Beach on July 8.
"Onlookers said they were holding hands and were an obvious couple," Carbone claimed.
Carbone said in July that he was "99 percent sure" Kat and John Henry are engaged, even though he was unable to provide any additional support for the claim.
And then Carbone unveiled his spoilers about Eliza and Aaron B.'s post-show relationship status.
In a separate video, Eliza and Aaron B. were caught sitting across from each other in a hotel lobby.
"(SPOILER): This was taken a few days after filming ended in the Vidanta lobby & posted on an IG story that was sent to me. This is Eliza and Aaron B.," Carbone wrote on Twitter.
"I don't know if they're engaged, and Eliza has been back in Germany since filming. But clearly they ended the show together."
Carbone wasn't sure if Eliza and Aaron would make it long-term, however, because Aaron returned to San Diego and Eliza moved back to Germany after the show.
"So in terms of the status of their relationship now? Not sure," Carbone wrote in a blog posting that followed his tweets.

In a subsequent posting, Carbone stated he had since confirmed Kat and John Henry got engaged on Bachelor in Paradise's finale -- and that Eliza and Aaron did as well!
On July 18, Carbone shared an additional update on Aven and Kylee's relationship.
"I haven't heard anything about them [in a while]," Carbone wrote in his July 18 blog post. "They were definitely partying in the same group together on a boat in San Diego post-filming, but that's all I've seen or heard since filming ended."
In the spoiler blogger's latest new November 2 Instagram posting, Carbone confirmed Aven and Kylee did not leave Paradise engaged but they stayed together and continued dating outside of the show.
"[They] are together post-show as they have been together numerous times post-filming if you follow either of them on social media," he wrote, noting Aven and Kylee have repeatedly made separate social-media postings showing them visiting the same locations on the same dates.
