Brayden Bowers was shocked when Kat Izzo turned cold as ice and dumped him after Tanner Courtad hit the beach on Thursday’s two-hour episode of Bachelor In Paradise on ABC.
‘I’m just really confused. She was warm to me one second and then cold as ice the next,’ Brayden, 25, said in a confessional. ‘It does hurt because I allowed myself to fantasize about a future outside of here and all of the sudden I don’t even exist at all.’
At the start of the show, Brayden talked about how he was falling in love with Kat, 27, and couldn’t believe that it happened so fast.
‘Right now Brayden is everything I want,’ Kat said in a confessional. ‘I’m not going to want to explore someone else, that’s just who I am.’
Tanner then walked onto the beach with a date card.

‘Oh my God he’s so hot,’ Kat said in a confessional.
Jess Girod, 24, said in a confessional that Tanner was the number one person she wanted to meet and Tanner pulled her aside to chase. He then pulled Kat and she told him that Brayden was just a fun guy.
‘He’s a little puppy dog,’ Tanner said.
‘He’s a Golden Retriever,’ Kat said.
‘Brayden is absolutely going to spiral if Kat goes on this date today,’ Aaron S. said.
Tanner then asked out Kat on a date and she immediately said yes.
‘Kat, I don’t know what you are doing but it’s not a great look,’ Blake Moynes, 32, said in a confessional.
‘No conversation with Brayden, no common courtesy,’ Olivia Lewis, 24, said in a confessional.

Jess was also unhappy because Tanner was her number one. Tanner and Kat went horseback riding on their date.
‘This is incredible,’ Tanner said.
Tanner told her there was never a doubt in his mind who he was going to take on this date and kissed her.
‘I wanted to go on this date with you so badly,’ Kat said.
Kat and Tanner went swimming and made out in the water. Back on the beach, Brayden was spiraling.
‘I’ve shown her my heart,’ Brayden said in an emotional confessional. ‘I’ve shown her who I am, and if I’m not enough, then that’s just something I’m going to have to accept.’
Great date: Kat had a great date with Tanner
Brayden, who competed on Charity Lawson’s season of The Bachelorette, said he just wanted someone to choose him.
Blake told Jess that he only ate birds and she was confused.
‘I was literally thinking of you eating a pigeon,’ Jess said.
Aaron Bryant, 30, told Eliza Isichei, 27, that he knows it’s early but that he doesn’t want to see her going on a date with anyone else. Will said he was vibing with Mercedes and only had eyes for her when Tyler Norris , 27, then walked down to the Beach with a date card.
‘Yup another one of my ex-boyfriends is joining the beach,’ Bachelorette Rachel Recchia, 27, said in a confessional. ‘I’m actually so excited. I love Tyler.’
Rachel said she was interested in going on a date with him.
‘All of a sudden, you’ve got Tyler Norris,’ Aaron B. Said. ‘You could phone a friend from his abs. I mean, he’s a hot commodity for sure.’

Sam Jeffries, 27,shared in a confessional that she had been having stomach issues.
‘I am going on nine days with no pooping,’ Sam said.
Sam said she had taken laxatives but nothing had worked. Dr. Kelly Tenbrink, an on-call Emergency room doctor arrived to talk to her.
‘You mentioned it’s been nine days, that’s a while,’ Dr. Tenbrink said. ‘We’ve tried laxatives, diet, nothing. So I think I’m a little worried.’
He told her they may have to consider more drastic actions, but that she had till sunrise.
‘I’ve seen patients have to be sedated and literally have to bring almost like a poo baby out,’ Dr. Tenbrink said.
Poo baby: ‘You mentioned it’s been nine days, that’s a while,’ Dr. Tenbrink said. ‘We’ve tried laxatives, diet, nothing. So I think I’m a little worried’
‘Deliver a poop baby out of your butt?’ Olivia said. ‘That sounds aggressively painful and absolutely horrible.’
Kat returned to the beach after her date and Brayden pulled her to talk. Kat told him that she enjoyed her time with Tanner. She told him she needed to listen to her gut and didn’t see her feelings growing for him anymore. Brayden asked her what changed.
‘I wasn’t thinking about us when I was there,’ Kat said.
The other guys felt bad for Brayden.
‘It feels like I got played hard core,’ Brayden said.
Brayden told bartender Wells Adams there was a change after he gave Kat his rose. He said he saw himself falling for her but now he felt crushed. Kylee told Kat that she needed to be considerate of Brayden’s emotions.

‘What?’ Kat said.
Jess told Kat that Brayden didn’t know she had reservations.
‘I’ve been so open,’ Kat insisted.
‘I’m so mad,’ Kat said in a confessional. ‘I didn’t want to continue with Brayden. That is fair and valid, and I have been nothing but open and honest from my perspective.’
Kat then pulled Brayden aside to chat and said she didn’t want her words to be twisted because he wasn’t hearing what she was saying.
‘You switched up really fast on me,’ Brayden said. ‘It made me feel, again, it was just a rose, is how I honestly, truly feel.’
‘I feel so bad for him,’ Kylee said.
‘I feel hurt, I feel cheap, I feel like a dirty whore,’ Brayden said.
Feels dirty: ‘I feel hurt, I feel cheap, I feel like a dirty whore,’ Brayden said
Kat stormed off.
‘If you cared about somebody at all you don’t treat them like that,’ Brayden said in a confessional. ‘She is definitely cold, bro.’

‘I’ve never been so happy ever in my life,’ Mercedes said in a confessional.
Back on the beach, Will was depressed and Wells gave him some advice.
‘Just stop dating girls that want to go on dates with other guys,’ Wells said.
Mercedes walked back holding hands with Tyler and came back to the beach and asked Will to talk to her.
She said she wanted to sleep on it and feel the vibes tomorrow.
Sam pulled Aaron Schwartzman, 34, aside to tell him what was going on with her not pooping. He told her had a great idea.

Aaron S. brought her a tray with black coffee, shots of olive oil, tacos, hot sauce and beans. Sam said that she liked how supportive Aaron S was being.
‘I might name the poop baby Hope because if this f***ing thing does come out there is possible hope that the connection furthers,’ Aaron S. said.
‘If I had to leave Paradise at sunrise that would break my heart,’ Sam said. ‘I do really like him. I don’t want to go home.’
Bachelor In Paradise will return next Thursday on ABC.
