Here’s a basic recap, which isn’t easy for a two hour show. The boys are splitting into three groups: The Nice Guys, The Bad Boys, and The Bland Boys. According to my “Bachelor” tutors and viewing pals, Penelope and Theresa, we should know all their names by now but we don’t I guess this group is chock full of duds.
Jillian whisks the fellas off to her hometown of Vancouver where she feels more like herself “happy, excited, grounded”. She bounces between perky and pensive a lot. I think she’s too nice. I’d be kicking some of these guys out in mid sentence never mind waiting for a rose ceremony.
She and Kipton go on a one to one date that is totally cute. Nothing fancy smancy about this date. They kayak to a market (where does one pack groceries in a kayak?), pick up various items for dinner, feed some birds while chatting on a bench, make dinner and cuddle a bit before calling it a night. They seem pretty natural and comfortable together. It looks like Kipton is a contender, he scores a rose.
The group date is a bit more interesting. Jillian tells Jake that he seems so perfect but it’s OK if he wasn’t so perfect with her. Huh? Seriously, I just don’t get these shows. Forced intimacy in short periods of time isn’t natural for a lot of guys. I guess Jake should do what most of the others are doing, fake it.
Then Captain Crazy, David, gets a chance to be alone with Jillian. What a flippin’ lunatic! He uses crass language, tells her how much he admires her backside assets, tries to force Jillian to kiss him, gets belligerent with her and just acts totally like ….himself! Psycho party of one.
The two on one date was boring. Jillian decides to keep Mark and sends Michael packing. Again there are other guys here that could be sent home, like Tanner P!
The cocktail party, which they’ve been teasing us with all week, looked like it was going to be explosive but it teetered out. A few of the guys start hinting to Jillian that some guys are there for the wrong reasons. Finally it’s Taner P, the pervy foot fetish guy, who tells Jillian that someone has a girlfriend back home! He tells the camera it’s Wes, mister country crooner. I’m not shocked. Cocktail party comes to a screeching halt.
When the group is confronted no one fesses up. Tanner P acts like a long tail cat in a room full of rockers, wonder how long it’ll take them to realize he’s the snitch. Everyone acts shocked, outraged, etc. Ugh!
So what does Jillian do? She gives Juan his walking papers! What?!?! OH COME ON! He was one of the good ones, a nice guy who doesn’t beat his chest like a cave man. To top it off he was incredible about it, wished her luck and told her there were quite a few incredible guys left! I’m hoping he gets the next “Bachelor” season because I thought he was worth watching.
Also sent home was Captain Crazy Pants! What does he do? He actually walks up to her and says “Why?” Uh, maybe because your chock full of rage and a few marbles shy of sane? Good riddance.
