Moments later, Dotuns chariot arrives a neon yellow Jeep driven by Charity herself.
At this point, it doesnt seem like hes trying to make any friends anymore.
In his confessional, he tells the camera that he undoubtedly has the strongest connection with Charity.
He even knows her favorite color (which, for the record, is blue).
Charity and Dotun are unbothered as they venture into the woods to jump off a bridge.
Love may not conquer all, but it is enough to send them over the edge of the bridge.
And once they pushed through the anxiety, they were amped enough to do it all over again.
Back at the cabin, a date card arrives.
Looks like Xavier is getting the honor of a one-on-one this week.
Charity and Dotun are spending the nighttime portion of the date making smores Dotuns first ever!
He opens up to her about his childhood and his immigration to the United States.
Naturally, Dotun secures a rose from Charity.
They end their night with a dip in the hot tub.
Theyre quite sassy, making sure that the men dont underestimate them or Charity.
After a quick make out sesh with Aaron, Charity joins the men for a cocktail party.
Aaron says that its Braydens problem if his actions dont match his words.
Tanner says Brayden has packed his bags more than twice in the first four weeks.
Charity is clearly angry, and she pulls Brayden aside to have a private conversation.
Brayden tells Charity hes been down in the dumps since they arrived in Washington, following their last conversation.
Rightfully so, she rebuttals that shes made it very clear how she feels about him.
Not this time, though.
Thats all she needs to hear.
Shes ready to let him go.
Once again, Charitys night has been derailed by the same drama.
Hopefully for the last time.
To her credit, she soldiers on to continue her night with the other men on the group date.
For the first time, the men arent even disappointed about not receiving the rose.
Theyre just relieved that Brayden is gone.
On to Xaviers date.
Charity has a day on the town planned for them so she can sus out if hes husband level.
They start off at a fruit festival, followed by a scenic trolley ride.
They also chat about Charitys fears of infidelity.
She says shes constantly fearful of that what if?
Xavier reassures her, promising complete honesty.
By the end of the date, Charity has changed her tune about Xavier.
She offers him the rose without hesitation.
As the men get ready for the cocktail party, theyre all on Cloud 9 since Brayden is gone.
But, all good things must come to an end, as they say.
And thats how their peaceful night blows up.
Aaron tries to demand an apology for John, but Brayden storms past him.
John tries to talk some sense into Brayden, but he doesnt seem willing to listen to anyone.
Finally, Brayden drives off into the night.
Xavier, Dotun and Joey are going into the ceremony with roses on their chests.
Charity also hands roses to Aaron, Tanner, and Sean.
That means Caleb, Michael, and John are headed home.
