It doesn’t take Merlin long to find out that cutting their jungle adventure short is well worth it. They are both rewarded for the sacrifice. After their hot tub adventure, they cool down in the pool… sort of. Jalisa floats around on her back, while Merlin swims a few laps…
Jalisa is already up in the bathroom when Merlin wakes up the next morning. Although they’ve spent plenty of time getting to know each other in the past weeks, the relationship still feels very new. Merlin’s not sure if she’d be okay with him just walking into the bathroom on…
After the final reveal, Jalisa and Merlin travel to Selvadorado for their prize…a three day, two-night vacation. Merlin: I can’t believe that I get to be here with you, but it almost feels like we’ll still have to say goodbye after the trip is over. Jalisa: We don’t ever have…
All eight previously eliminated guys gather for the finale as Jalisa and Merlin as revealed for the first time. Esteban: So, she chose the Knight.

Jalisa and Nate head off to Granite Falls for an overnight date. This time, both Nate and Jalisa are in control, and their goal is to increase their relationship levels as much as possible. Bunny: *standing in front of the cabin* This is really nice! Voidcritter: It is! It’s so…
