Bachelor Pad: The Death of the Outsiders! - Here's The Rankings
Commentary and Rankings by RTVC Staff Writer Joseph Braverman

Wow, so this week on Bachelor Pad, the Outsiders officially were wiped out.
Now we can all cry about it and say how awful those annoying couples are, and how disappointing it is to see the big six make it all the way to the end, but I say the Outsiders deserved what they got.
They had four weeks to change the game up, and even changing the game up one of those weeks would have made a huge difference in the turnout of events, and yet not one single Outsider was able to commit fully to the plan of sending home the couples.
They were lured in by the acceptance of the cool kids, and were not thinking of the long term goals. In short, they played a decent short-term game, and a horrible long term one.
What did Peyton or Nikki expect was going to happen when they betrayed their Outsider group by keeping in Kovacs and Kiptyn instead of the more obvious Craig and Jonathan? They made stupid move after stupid move, and were rightfully sent home.
I believe the six best players are left standing, because they stayed loyal to each other, had a clear goal from the very beginning to make it all the way to the end together, and succeeded in their plan.
They final six may be the least likeable house guests left on the show, but they did play the smartest game, and I would not mind if any one of the couples win, because I know they all played a very strong game from day one.
Now, which of the couples will win? I think it is going to be between David and Natalie and Kiptyn and Tenley. It is so obvious that the Bachelor producers are rigging the final challenge for Kiptyn and Tenley to triumph in.
The Bachelor wants to uphold a sweet couple as its final couple, and Tenley and Kiptyn fit the bill in comparison to the disparagingly trashy Elizabeth/Kovacs, David/Natalie pairings. Tenley is highly experienced in dance, and so she will easily be able to win next week’s competition.
Elizabeth and Kovacs have had luck after luck throughout this whole season, but I feel like next week will be the end for them. It’s too bad, because I kind of am pulling for them. They are unapologetic in their sexuality and romance, and also have been able to last deep into the competition when they were the biggest targets since week one.
As to who I think should win, I would have to give it to David and Natalie. Almost from the start of this game, David and Natalie have been playing a very strong, strategic, social, and physical game.
Natalie has built great relationships with many individuals, and winning this week’s competition proved she had the physical edge to certify a win. David was able to keep the target off him and Natalie for a long time, and had an incredibly strong connection with almost every individual in the house.
If I had to declare an individual winner, I would give it to David. He has played the best all-around game throughout the entire show.
Here are my week five rankings for Bachelor Pad:
