During the episode, Joey enjoyed a group date with Jenn, Daisy, Edwina, Katelyn, Allison, Rachel, Autumn, Kelsey T, Jess, Kelsey A, Madina, and Lea.
In the group date, the 12 contestants had a great time participating in a series of challenges as they vied for Joey's heart.

Autumn won the contest, earning extra time with Joey.
Social media users expressed discomfort with the challenge, with comments like "This sausage challenge is really degrading" and "Producers are going to hell for that sausage challenge."

Joey Graziadei visits 'Game of Thrones' filming location
'The Bachelor' Season 28 star Joey Graziadei treated his suitors to 'Game of Thrones' and 'Gladiator' 2 filming location, expressing his fandom for the HBO series. He mentioned, "This is where some of the show was filmed, so the fact that we’re doing this today, where Ned Stark was beheaded, is something that’s crazy."
Joey playfully revealed a spoiler, saying, "Oops, sorry I know. I’m not supposed to say that. If you haven’t seen it, Ned Stark's head gets cut off." The group date involved contestants training as knights and competing in medieval outfits, with Joey sporting a knight costume, sans shirt.
Joey Graziadei elaborated on his outfit, jokingly describing it as a "half-naked Roman soldier." He humorously acknowledged the need for more pushups and sit-ups but expressed his willingness to power through. With a playful spirit, he declared himself the "Fun-size Bachelor" for the day.
