The preview of the episode just said that we are going to see one of the most uncomfortable kisses in Bachelor history. That sounds like it's going to be some great TV! It's going to be very hard to beat that one girl who tried to straddle Ben to kiss him and her dress was too tight...and then she proceeded to give him instructions on how they were going to kiss. I've never seen something so uncomfortable, so I can't wait to see who and what happens tonight!
One-On-One Date: Cassandra
JP is hoping to find out if it's worth keeping Cassandra around, since she has been missing her son. He doesn't want to keep her away from him if he doesn't think they have a future.
He picks her up and they take off driving along the water, and next thing you know, he drives right into the ocean! He totally "James Bonded" it! How cool! They seemed to be having a great time as he zoomed his car/boat across the water. Next they moved onto a yacht, and did the classic yacht date activity: jump in the water. They also did a little smoochin'. She was glad she decided to stick around and go on the date. She was obviously pretty nervous in the beginning (mainly because she said she hadn't been on a date since she was 18).
The night ends up at Juan Pablo's house (Camila is staying with her grandparents). He cooks for her and they did a little dancing. As the night went on, the more comfortable she got with him and they seemed to really have a connection. They bonded more even over photos of their kids, and she got the rose. He was pretty open about the fact that he was very attracted to her. He loves a lot of things about her, not just the fact that she has a child, too.
Group Date
Kelly, Renee, Sharleen, Danielle, Alli, Lauren, Christy, Lucy, Nikki, Andi
Very predictable...group date soccer game. You KNOW this isn't going to end well. Competitive girls trying to impress the guy = pulled hair, kicking and tripping, maybe some blood, and most likely lots of drama.
His goal is to see who can have the most fun and maybe go out of their comfort zone. Lucy is sure that she will be noticed because she's been playing her whole life. Let's just hope she keeps her shirt on. They're in trouble if he calls "shirts" and "skins".
JP showed off some of his awesome moves, and has the girls do some drills. He offers pointers to the ones who seem to be struggling. Sharleen looks like she's having no fun. She's not athletic, and has never worn cleats. Pair that with the fact that she doesn't seem to like Juan Pablo at all, and doesn't really seem like she even wants to try to get to know him or spend more time with him. She needs to work on her acting skills a little to make it look like she at least wants to be there.
It's time for the game, red vs. blue with JP as the ref. Kelly struggled...a lot. Blue scored first, even though red came in feeling pretty confident. Sharleen took a ball straight to her face, her gut, her legs and just about any body part possible. JP was impressed that she didn't care and she just kept playing. Red came back and scored, and scored, and scored. JP felt bad for the blue team, so he joined their team to help them out. Then he took out Sharleen, who was supposed to be on "his" team. Poor girl, she was just getting beat up left and right.
I was quite surprised that the game went pretty well and was fairly drama free. I guess these girls just don't have the competitiveness that girls from other seasons have had, or maybe it's still too early on for it. The only injuries that occurred were minor, and were mostly due to inexperience and lack of coordination and skill.
After the game, the girls got some one-on-one time with JP. Nikki was first, and she shared her reasons for not opening up right away...she was afraid of being hurt. He reassured her that he is glad she's there and wants to know more about her. She regretted not going in for a little kiss, but she doesn't think that anyone else will have as good of a connection as she did.
Andi was next. It didn't take long before they were making out in the kitchen. I don't even know how it happened...they barely talked about anything and the next minute they're making out. That was kind of strange. She is sure that because she was so giddy after their time, that she was for sure going to get the rose.
Sharleen was next, and he put a blanket down in the middle of the field, which is way out in the open, for everyone to see. She responded to everything that he said by saying "that's a compliment". She never smiles! Oh, and there's that awkward kiss they were talking about! He said he wanted to kiss her, she whispered "really?" and she looked like she was backing away. As he was kissing her, her face and tongue were trying to reject him. Then she says she wants a redo because she wasn't so sure. That didn't really help. They were completely out of sync...I've never seen anything quite like that. The whole thing was just very uncomfortable. But afterward, she said she felt special and is starting to think this could be the start of something powerful. She is sure that she will get the rose.
So, if you're keeping score: Nikki, Andi and Sharleen all think they had an amazing connection and that they are for sure getting roses. 2 of you are about to be surprised. After seeing him making out with other girls, Nikki began to doubt her connection and was surprised when it was her that got the rose.
Sharleen, in true Sharleen fashion is now beginning to doubt the connection they had (just minutes after she thought it could be something powerful). And she says that she is surprised and bothered by how much she cares. She's "bothered" by it...wow. This girl never ceases to amaze me with her word choices.
One-on-One Date: Chelsie
The girls think she is too young and mature for what Juan Pablo says that he is looking for. They don't seem to worried about her being a threat.
They jam to some Spanish music in the car, as JP sings along.
The date card asked her "do you trust me". They are going to be tandum bungee jumping off a bridge. She is freaking out, and JP is kind of laughing at her. I love that JP, when he finally got a look over the edge, says "holy moly, macaroni". That was pretty funny. They really, really drug it out, as she walked to the ledge and then back again, over and over. Of course she pulls it together, just like all other bachelors/bachelorettes before her. It doesn't matter how scared someone is...they always end up doing it. What changed her mind was the fact that he didn't care whether they did it or not and that made her feel like she could trust him.
Then it was all over, and they kissed while hanging upside down. He told her he was proud of her, and she said she was proud of herself and proud of him for talking her off the ledge.
At dinner (at City Hall?), they talked about their fears. Chelsie said that everyone in her family is a doctor of some kind, but she said she really wanted to be a teacher. But, last time I checked, she worked at COSI. Maybe she's some kind of teacher there, who knows.
JP sees a motherly instinct in her, and he likes what he's seeing in her. She then gets a rose after she told him that his upside down kissing skills were pretty good. She was so excited to get a rose and said there was no way to top the day. Cue the music, and they get serenaded by...who the heck is that? Oh, he's country, that's why I have no idea who he is. I guess his name is Billy Currington. I was curious about him, so I did a quick Google search...first photo is...a mug shot! Apparently, last year, he was arrested on "felony charges of making terroristic threats and abuse of an elderly person". Y:ikes!
Surprise Venezuelan Breakfast
JP surprises the girls in the morning by cooking them breakfast. Kelly was unfortunate, and was taking her dog Molly outside, and she was not a very morning person. She was pretty embarrassed that he saw her without "her face on". Let's just say he got to see how some of these girls look in the morning.
Lucky girls...I could get used to a guy like Juan Pablo making breakfast for me every morning.
JP then tells the girls that he would like to cancel the cocktail party and have a pool party instead. The girls were definitely all for that. JP was in heaven....a pool full of girls in bikinis. The girls were in heaven...shirtless Juan Pablo.
Kat comes across to the other girls as trying to hard. She was on his shoulders, and one of the girls commented that "his head was in her crotch for 20 minutes". They said she looked like a whore. Meow! The claws are coming out now. Sharleen said she was making a spectacle of herself to be noticed.
Sharleen says she is questioning if she is the right type of girl for Juan Pablo. She said she has been so uncomfortable the whole time because of the cameras being around. She actually starts crying. Wow, some real emotion! I was starting to think she was a robot, incapable of real feelings. Juan Pablo is really good at comforting the girls and knowing the right things to say to make them feel better.
As he's comforting Sharleen, the rest of the girls notice that he's missing. Sharleen looks around and says she doesn't think anyone's looking, so she decides to kiss him. At least that kiss was a lot more natural than their first kiss.
The jealousy is really starting to take effect with some of the girls now. Clare was one of them. She had her one-on-one date last week, but didn't have a date this week, and now he's connecting and making out with other girls. Clare has a moment in the bathroom...another bathroom moment! What is it with the bathroom this season? Renee was there again, comforting the struggling girl. She is definitely the "mom" of the house. She encouraged Clare to talk to Juan Pablo about it. So, she did, and he of course reassured her, and she felt better knowing that he didn't forget about her.
Rose Ceremony
The order the roses were handed out: Andi, Renee, Kelly, Sharleen, Elise, Kat, Alli, Clare, Lauren, Danielle
Going home: Christy and Lucy
Final Thoughts
If I didn't already know that Christy and Lucy were the 2 going home, I would have been incredibly shocked that Danielle got a rose over Christy and Lucy. Who is this girl? We have seen absolutely nothing about her.
It's kind of funny that in the one episode that Lucy doesn't go topless (that we know of), is the episode she goes home.
Kelly and her dog Molly are really getting to be ridiculous. For one, I'm surprised that they have let her keep her dog at the house. It's another thing entirely to have the dog on a leash during the rose ceremony. Is there really not anyone that could watch the dog? I think it's really stupid that she continues to have her dog there during everything. It just makes her look childish.
