**WARNING......Spoilers ahead**
So this week's Bachelor takes place in San Francisco.
First date of the week: "Love lifts us up".
The date card arrives and it is for Emily........the skin disease lady. The date card says
Courtney (aka "The Model") gave us some quotes after this........"I'm sure the date with Emily will be boring." "Alot of the girls are well educated, but booksmart can be boring." Oh really??????? hmmm So is she saying that she's not well educated and she's not book smart? Because she obviously doesn't think she's boring. (however, I'd have to disagree)
So for Emily and Ben's date..........oh no big deal.....they're going to walk up the Bay Bridge.....
I have to give kudos to Em, because I for one would have said "if this is the only way to get the rose, send me home because I am NOT climbing this bridge!" But, even though she was scared out of her skin, she did it. When they were getting their safety lesson, we learned something very important............"This is a dangerous place. It's not DisneyLand." Hmmm.......yeah, I didn't see Mickey or Minnie, so figured we weren't at Disney. Although I would have wanted lots of pixie dust on me before I'd do that! lol
Emily told us that she is scared of 2 things: rejection and heights.......she conquered her fear of heights and made it to the top of the bridge AND she got the rose. (Later she even saw fireworks...........yeah, he kissed her, but they really saw fireworks too). (so did the other girls....and they were jealous)
Second date of the week: "Leap List"
Group date: Blakeley (aka Jugs, Big Teeth, etc), Jaclyn, Kacie B, Erika, Samantha, Monica, Rachel, Nikki, Casey S, Elyse, & _______
Casey S (the mysterious one that we know almost nothing about) shared with us her leap list: "My leap list is running with bulls, swimming with sharks, and falling in love." ...... falling in love?? ranks with running with bulls and swimming with sharks?? well.......I guess it could............*shrugs*
This date was quite interesting......they went snow skiing. Yep, you read that right.........snow skiing......in bikini's no less. *rolls eyes* Kacie B totally fell the most and impressed everyone with her butt skiing backward moves. Ben decided that he was going to move butt skiing backwards to his leap list. lol
After the skiing was over, the girls got dressed (shocker I know) and they went to Tonga.
Poor Kacie B had a hard time watching Ben with the other girls and she told him so. But when Ben & Kacie B kissed.........all was forgotten. "She sparkles. I like her." Ben said about Kacie.
The rose of the night went to Rachel. I don't know what it is about her, but she just looks old to me. I know it says that she's only 27 (which is not even remotely old)......but when I see her with Ben, I feel like he's with an older woman. Oh well......don't see the chemistry there, but we only see snippets of their time together too. However, Rachel said that this was the best day of her life. Good for her.
(Back at the hotel)
The Last Date card: "Let's unlock our heart to love with a key to the city"
This was for Brittney and with it came a box with a beautiful key necklace.
Brittney seemed disappointed and in shock, all at the same time. She said that it didn't feel right and that she felt confused, overwhelmed, and that she thinks she's going to go home. She then packed her bag and left to find Ben. She arrived with her bag and pulled Ben aside and told him "I think you'll find a great girl, but it's not me." and then Ben put her in a taxi and sent her on her way.....after making sure he said to tell her grandma hello. (somehow I think Grandma would have done better on the show............)
So................Last Date (Take 2):
The lucky recipient is Lindzi. (The horse girl)
On their date they ride on a trolley, get ice cream, go through China Town.......all the while Ben is the tour guide. The end up at SF City Hall and the doors are locked.......but surprise, surprise........Ben has the key and can unlock the door. Okay, must admit, going to City Hall does not sound very romantic.......however, seeing Matt Nathanson come down the stairs does help quite a bit. :) Matt sings for them so that they can dance. So they danced and kissed and repeat and repeat.
After the concert, Ben takes her to a speak easy and Lindzi receives the rose. "The night is magical."
Before the rose ceremony:
Jennifer gets some one on one time and Ben tells her that she is the best kisser in the house. Which *insert shocked face here* causes them to start kissing. Yeah, I know.......couldn't believe it myself either. lol Every time I look at Jennifer, she reminds me of Pamela Moran on Army Wives. :)
There is a surprise visitor to the cocktail party.......Shawntel, the funeral director, from Brad's season. Well, she decided that she's meant for Ben, so comes to the party to show him. She definitely made him speechless and they even have to *bleep* out some of his words.
Courtney (The Model) quotes in regards to the girls: "These girls are so naive and juvenile." "I'd never be friends with them."
Quotes from the girls regarding Courtney: "Ben sees a different side of her." "She has a social disorder and needs a diagnosis."
Quote of the night though goes to Courtney......she said to Ben in their one on one time......."I think we'd make cute babies." Yeah, can't even think of a comment to go with how absolutely tacky that was.
Rose ceremony:
Receive Roses:
Rachel
Emily
Lindzi
Courtney (even though she did say she'd leave if Ben gave Shawntel a rose......was almost hoping that Ben would give Shawntel a rose, just to see her leave, even though she prob wouldn't even then)
Kacie B
Elyse
Jamie
Jennifer
Casey S (yeah, we still don't know much about this girl, except her leap list)
Blakeley
Monica
Nikki

Going home without roses:
Erika -- who bless her heart fainted not once, but twice before finding out she was going home
Jaclyn--this is going to sound mean, but she reminds me of the girl that played "Hatchet face" in the movie Cry Baby
Shawntel--she was kind of creepy, so wasn't too sad to see her leave
That's it from me on this week's ep. Stay tuned for more drama next week.
