The Bachelor and The Bachelorette are all about romantic tension, but let's be honest — the fantasy suite episodes are when it really all goes down. These potentially scandalous episodes are always fan favorites, but some have stood out for being nothing short of crazy.

On Season 5 of The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris was genuinely looking for love, and by the time the fantasy suites came around, she thought she found it with contestant Ed Swiderski. Jillian and Ed did end the season engaged, but their fantasy suite episode was a bit of a downer.

During the episode, things had gotten very hot and heavy between Ed and Jillian, but when push came to shove, they just couldn't get the deed done.

Jillian told the cameras of what went down in the fantasy suite — which is to say, not much.

As she put it, the two were sunburnt and exhausted after a long day, and didn't have much left for each other but some quiet, low-intensity cuddling.

Ed also explained the situation in his own mortifying confessional.

Vulture's recap of the episode was decidedly more brutal in its summary of the events, saying,

"Poor Ed — he will forever be known, insofar as he is known at all, as the guy who couldn't get it up in the Fantasy Suite, after two others successfully sealed the deal the nights before him."

Yikes. Talk about being caught with your pants down.
