Nick
They take a helicopter ride to a private island.
She is hoping to talk to him about his past relationships. His family said that things have been going in a downward spiral and being very brokenhearted. She said that that is a different story than she's heard from him. She's hoping that he will open up and be honest. He said in his 20s he had a really bad breakup and he didn't want to talk to anyone for 6 months. When he was engaged before, she was the one who broke it off. I'm getting the sense that the women he's dated are maybe trying to get away from him. It seems like they are the ones doing the breaking up and then he's devastated. It doesn't take a genius to notice a pattern. He did start opening up some, but he just started rambling and mumbling. Finally, Andi said "I want to go snorkel".
At dinner, she tries to start conversations about things, and he just really has no answers. She asks for an embarrassing story, and he couldn't think of anything. She asked if he's clumsy, and he said he's quirky.
Then he said he had some time, so he wrote a story. He pulls out a book, and proceeds to read it to her. Now, you can't tell me that he actually put any of this together himself. The book has a hard cover, and it has fairly good illustrations that look professionally done. Now, the story he might have come up with himself because it was so creative: it was about a princess named Andi from the magical kingdom of Atlanta. Now, THAT had to take him forever to come up with! She's blown away..."amazing!". The rest of the story is just his "quest" to meet her. He said that in France he was put under an evil spell that made him act like a baby (the unfortunate mime date where he pouted the whole time). At the end, he left blank pages to finish their story. The last thing he wrote was that Andi had to decide if she wanted to spend the night with him in the magical fantasy suite. On that cue, Andi pulled out the fantasy suite card/key. She asked him his thoughts and he said that he's been hoping for the night where he could just talk her ear off the entire night until she was tired of him talking. That is just such a strange answer. She asked him if that was the long version of "yes", and he said yes, "I'm down" and "I'm longwinded". Yeah, we get it.
As he stands up to lead her somewhere to talk while they're not sitting down (again...weird), I notice the absolutely hideous outfit he's wearing: pink pants and like a grey shirt with light blue sleeves. What a mismatch. He's wanting to finally tell her how he feels. He said he has wanted to tell her since Belgium, that he loves what he knows about her. He lists all the things he loves about her. Still hasn't said it....and there it is...he finally said he's in love with her. He said that she is it for him, and she said she loves hearing that.
Josh
They explore the city, do some dancing in the street (Josh, not Andi), and then they watch some kids play baseball. Josh even gets into the game and pitches some to them...totally cute!
They talked about her prejudgements about him, and how nervous he was to meet her for the first time. They talked about having a family, and they seem to have a lot of the same thoughts.
There was no question whether he was going to accept the invitation to the fantasy suite.
The night topped off with a fireworks display.
Chris
Going into the date, Andi's not sure if her relationship with Chris is at the point where she would feel comfortable spending the night with him. She said they have the day to figure that out.
For their date, they ride horses through the countryside...and she's pretty terrified. Especially when some cows freak her horse out...and then she freaked out. He only told her that she looked hot on a horse like 50 times (subliminal messaging...you belong on my farm with me). Did anyone count how many times both of them said "Iowa" during this date? It was a ridiculous amount. Probably more times than Iowa has ever been said on TV ever...or maybe any state ever.
She told him how much she loved his family. She said she loved the fun "ghosts in the graveyard". So, in the open countryside, he wants to play again. So, she counts to 60 and then easily finds him in the bushes. But...it was really cute.
At dinner, they talk more about Iowa and how great his hometown date was. How many different ways can they talk about this? I sure hope no one is doing a drinking game with the word "Iowa" tonight because they will be dead before the end of this episode.
Andi expresses her concerns with Chris and he asks what he can do. She doesn't know, and then starts crying. And here's when you know things probably aren't going to end up well for Chris. Crying before the fantasy suite is never a good sign. As he's sharing his feelings and that he's falling in love with her, she realizes that she just can't say the same yet. She says she still doesn't know if she can see herself in...you guessed it...Iowa. I didn't think she could possibly say something more than "staaaahp" and "shut up" and "y'all". But, Iowa definitely takes the cake here.
She says she wants to be fair to him, and it was really hard for her to say. He said he appreciated that and as much as it hurt, it gets it. She said she feels stupid, because he's amazing. She was bawling her eyes out saying goodbye. He was hurt, but he was handling it so well! In his limo ride out, he said he had questions, and he really thought she was the one.
Final 2 Guys: Josh and Nick
Hands down...easy choice...Josh all the way.
Josh thinks she's going to become Andi Murrary, and Nick doesn't know why she didn't send them both home. They're both in it to win it, and one of them is going to be very disappointed.
