Bachelor in Paradise: The beach is in disarray as former Bachelorettes make landfall

Sayulita, Mexico - As Bachelor in Paradise's eighth season nears its bitter end, the beach is in disarray after one departure shook each relationship to its core before two former Bachelorettes arrived to do a temperature test.

After Rodney Mathews and Eliza Isichei's break-up and sudden departure sent everyone on Bachelor in Paradise to mourn their absence like it was something that it wasn't, she went to chase the man she thought was the one: Justin Glaze. But after traveling across the country to confess her decision to choose Rodney over him was a mistake, Justin used her own words against her in savage style.

Meanwhile, back in Paradise, everyone was mourning Rodney and Eliza's break-up as if it was their own long-term relationship instead of a couple that was only together a a week or so. Also, it begs to be stated that everyone low-key bullied Eliza into making the decision that she did, when it was clear that she wanted Justin all along.

But whether Justin wanted her to choose him "without hesitation" or he just wanted a way to stay in Paradise a little longer is up for Bachelor Nation to decide.

But with engagements due in a matter of days, producers knew they needed to shake things up by bringing in new singles to test the remaining couples and subsequently get the viewers back into this train wreck of a season.

New arrivals shake things up in Paradise

Unfortunately for everyone who showed up with two days until proposals are set to take place, most of the relationships proved to be pretty unbreakable aside from Andrew Spencer and Jessenia Cruz's. But if we're being honest, we're cool with that relationship hitting the fan, and Andrew's smile on his date with Ency Abedin proves that.

However, we did witness Kate Gallivan lie directly to Logan Seagull's face by saying she's never been critical of him and solemnly swearing that she doesn't look down.

Though she may have chosen the selective memory route in her initial conversation with Logan when he called her out for her constant shade and belittlement, Bachelor Nation remembered – and apparently Johnny DePhillipo did, too.

But before Johnny could speak his mind to Kate about her questionable and belittling actions, former Bachelorettes Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia showed up to check in on the web of lies the men from their seasons might be spinning.

From the looks of it, things are about to hit the fan when Bachelor in Paradise returns on Tuesday at 8 PM ET on ABC.
