Chasen accuses Ed of having “chicken legs”-and indeed, Ed gets dragged around by Ben during a tug-of-war contest. Ed looks like a meathead-but Chasen, who describes himself as a “fitness enthusiast” in his Instagram bio-accuses him of merely having “glamour muscles.” Chasen believes Ed only focuses on building muscles that look good in photos rather than actually increasing his total physical strength. (Notably, he never tells Tayshia that she is a smokeshow-I’m not sure what her reaction would be.)īut for all his flopping and flailing, Chasen does make a valid point about Ed. It’s incredible-during filming the contestants have no internet access and zero contact with the outside world, but Chasen is such a pure Chasen that he was still somehow able to spiritually commune with Barstool Sports. He repeatedly calls Tayshia a “smokeshow” throughout the rest of the episode. After 24 hours in his BroCave, he emerges with his new descriptor, declaring that “Tayshia is a smokeshow” with the pride of a scientist announcing that he’s discovered a new vaccine. While trying to defend the concept of finding multiple women attractive, he yells “I’M PIVOTING.” When Ed calls him out for wearing a “smedium” shirt to highlight his muscles, he screams “THIS IS A LARGE.” And after the adjective-use accusation, Chasen makes it his personal goal to find a new way of describing Tayshia. Every time he opens his mouth, he just says something hilarious. Whether Ed’s right isn’t immediately apparent, but Chasen is not particularly good at defending himself. (Ed may be trying to zing Chasen, but he’s clearly researched how contestants make money from their post- Bachelorette fame.) Ed is so concerned with Chasen’s disingenuity that he actually tells Tayshia. He accuses Chasen of being on the show to get Instagram followers, and jokes about how when Chasen is off the show, he’ll just start making paid club appearances. Ed notices Chasen’s using the same adjectives to describe her as he used to describe the previous Bachelorette, Clare, which Ed thinks is a sign that he’s just saying whatever he needs to say to stay on the show. Ed, a man who I thought was confused all the time until I realized that’s just how his face is shaped, determines that Chasen, who is 100 percent the person you picture in your head when you imagine someone named “Chasen,” is being insincere with Tayshia. Tuesday night’s episode of The Bachelorette features a conflict as old as the series itself: a battle over who’s real and who’s fake.
