Later, during dinner, Juliana opened up to Grant about the meaning behind her bubbly exterior.
Growing up, she was in the difficult position of being close to a loved one experiencing addiction.
Laughing and smiling is her coping mechanism, she said.
I spent a lot of my life being really sad.
Grant resonated with Julianas experience, and said it was like looking at a reflection of myself.
He showed her his lone wolf tattoo and said he handled things by himself growing up, too.
The conversation brought Grant closer to Juliana, who admitted she may be falling in love.
He assured Juliana that he feels very strongly about her, too.
I do see a future when I look at you, he said.
And I see a partner thats going to build me up.

The rest of the women were unhappy, with Dina Lupancu calling out Carolinas disdain for the date.
Sometimes its better to let go than to hold onto something thats not [working], he said.
But you have to tell me how you feel, so I can work around that.
Ultimately, Grant said he was emotionally invested in Carolina, and the pair decided to continue.
Later, at the afterparty, Grant reassured Zoe when she pointed out she hadnt received a one-on-one date.
He said he appreciated her opening up last week.
She later said she felt played by Carolina, who she stuck up for last week.
Carolinas only reservation was that she didnt want her family to get attached if it was for nothing.
In her conversation with Grant, Dina tried to steer him away from Carolina.
Her words left Grant uncertain.
Ive had too many women talk about Carolina, he said.
And at some point, Im questioning… is it her?
Everyone can pack it up, Litia joked in a confessional.
The date exemplified that Grant and Litia were serious about a potential future together.
At dinner, she opened up about her Mormon faith and said she typically hasnt dated outside of it.
While he wondered how that would work logistically, he said in a confessional that Litia is worth it.
Im falling for you, he told her.
Youre amazing, youre beautiful, youre smart, youre funny, and youre ready.
And when two people meet and theyre ready, I think that some amazing things can happen.
A producer asked, Do you?
Yeah, Litia quickly responded.
She thanked Dina for her support last week and apologized for how things turned out.
I know that even if Ive meant well, Ive messed up, she said.
Im not perfect, and Im never going to be.
But Im here to listen, and I just want us to be good.
Sarafiena Watkins, Alexe Godin, and Carolina were eliminated.
