Bennett and Noah’s never-ending tiff jangled Tayshia Adams's last nerve and she decided to send one of them home. She chose to save Noah owing to the Havard graduate’s “condescending” behavior. Just when Noah fans were thrilled about bidding Bennett goodbye, the game changed. Towards the end of the episode, Bennett returns to the hotel and shows up at Tayshia’s door. Tayshia was taken aback at seeing the suitor whom she had sent home back. Bennett wastes no time in trying his luck with Tayshia as he’s seen complimenting her even before he could explain the situation. 

When Tayshia asks what brought him back, Bennett says that he wanted to apologize for questioning her “integrity”. He further added that his farewell was most bizarre and unexpected, so much so that he didn’t even get an opportunity to say a heartfelt goodbye to Tayshia. 

It does take Tayshia more than just the explanation to wrap her head around what was happening, but Benett seemed confident about making an impression; a good one this time. Before leaving Tayshia’s room, he leans forward to kiss her on the lips, but a hesitant Tayshia pulls herself back. 

Similar to Tayshia, fans of ‘The Bachelorette’ aren’t convinced with the idea of having Bennett back. Some of them have said that Bennett’s behavior is unacceptable and it makes him come across as a “stalker” who isn’t willing to let go of her despite being rejected.  

Reacting to Bennett's re-entry one tweeted, "I finally figured out who Bennett reminds me of! Trent the stalker from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend! Their energies are IDENTICAL!#TheBachelorette" Another added, "I judge Bennett to be creepy af. Pulse he’s a douchey narcissist. And a stalker. jfc who let him in? #TheBachelorette" One wrote, "Why the eff do producers let this stalker behavior happen. Bennett. No means no. #TheBachelorette'." Another said, "Someone slap the white out of her cause creepy weirdo stalker Bennett ain’t it and the fact that she’s considering it....the AUDACITY"



 



 



 



 

The preview for the next episode shows that the rest of the suitors' reaction to Bennett's return and going by their expression one could say that it didn't go down well with them.
