Bachelor in Paradise, Ep. 2.2

Date Card: Clare
Clare gets the scoop of who is paired up with whom. The girls tell her that she should meet Dan, he's like Hugh Jackman, they say. I don't see it. It's just about that time when Dan comes back from the ER with Ashley S. She seems perfectly fine, and heads to the food table for some fries. Clare is kind of bummed that Dan is now close with Ashley. Ashley said she had a great first date and that Dan got an IV with her. So, with Dan out of the picture, Kirk practically married to Carly already, Tanner and Jade being cozy, Jared and Ashley I - who went on a date; she thinks they're together, he could probably care less...pretty much leaves Clare to choose between Mikey and JJ. Cue the wah, wah and thumbs down. She decides to talk out loud to a crab. She starts winking at it and wishing that she could communicate to it what she is really saying. We're creeping very close to Ashley S. crazy town right now. Be careful Clare...slippery slope.

So, Mikey approached her to talk, but sadly she isn't normally attracted to beefy guys like him. He stumbled over his words and said it would be awesome to go on a date with her. She was speechless. She finally said that she would love go on a date with him. He then admitted that he has had a crush on her for the longest time.

Their date is in a beautiful place, but the actual date is some couple's tantric yoga. And let's just say they are going to be getting VERY close. She said she hopes they don't have to touch "privies" on their first date. It reminds me a lot of Sean's weird date with Carly (I think). Mikey being a big perve, said he felt everything and everything feels good on Clare.

After their session, they went for a swim. Mikey said he found her very attractive. She responded by telling him that she wanted to be honest that she appreciated him saying those things but she also wants to stay very open. She hasn't even talked to any of the other guys yet. He said he wanted to kiss her and she basically pushed him away. He came away thinking that they are on the same page and that it's great that she wants to get to know him more.

Date Card: Ashley S.

Without any hesitation, she said she was taking Dan. Good, because I'm sure no one else wanted to go with her. She said it's been over a year since she's been on a date with someone she really, really, really liked.

Their date was dinner and some dancing to some live music. Dan's first question on their date is why she picked him. She said she had so much fun on their first date. In case you missed it...she is referring to her trip to the ER as a date. She said they had so much fun and it was so unexpected, and even one of her best dates ever (no lie, she actually said that). He said he also had a lot of fun. She said she loves his humor and his sense of humor, and it makes her feel comfortable. He said he feels like he really gets her...well, that makes one of us.

Tenley Makes a Move...on Ashley I.'s "Man"
Tenley is feeling really worried because she has figured out who all of the guys will be giving a rose too and she is the odd woman out. She talked to Mikey and confessed that she really liked Jared, but knows that several other girls do as well. She feels weird because she is older than him and doesn't want to come off as a weird cougar lady. Mikey assures her that she's not. Just then, she sees Jared walking alone on the beach and decides to go talk to him. Of course, Ashley I. sees them and immediately starts to bawl. She thinks she is going to die alone and it makes it worse seeing him with someone older and wonders if she should get some shots or something. Lauren said she wouldn't be in this position if she wouldn't clam up every time she is around him. She realizes that she has to talk to him tonight to solidify things (let's hope she does a better job of that than last time). She then interrupts Tenley's time with Jared and said she wanted to steal him away because she misses doing that on The Bachelor.

Ashley tells him that she feels like she's been awkward ever since their date last week...um, last night...oops. She said he's just so freakin' cute that she just clams up. He said they had a fun time. She said she is worried about other girls stealing him away. He said it's tough being in a house with so many guys and girls. He said he's taking it slow and just seeing what happens. At least she heard what he was saying that he was open to anyone and that he wasn't committed to her in any way.

Rose Ceremony
Kirk is excited because, for once, all of the guys get to be the Bachelor, at least for one night. JJ is relishing having all of the power, knowing that tomorrow it will be like normal that the women have all the power.

Tenley thinks that JJ's rose is the only one up for grabs. Jillian thinks she has it secured because he told her last night that she would get his rose and then they kissed. She said a lot of nice things to him and he was smiling a lot. She think she has him eating out of the palm of her hand. Cut to Tenley, who is draping herself all over him. She tells him that she would like to see what would happen if they kiss and she is giving him permission to kiss her if he wants to. He wasn't going to say no to that! And guess what, she liked it! Guess that rose really is up for grabs...who's it gonna be?

Ashley I. asks Lauren how to be flirty with Jared but not obnoxious. She knows it's all up to her for them both to stay because Lauren didn't try this week. So, she talks with Jared and tells him how sweaty her palms are. He compliments her on her ring and says that he's been more awkward than anyone there. He tells her she's pretty and that she doesn't give herself enough credit. She just tells him he's cute and he wants to know why. She just said his face and his personality. Uh oh...now he's with Clare and he's telling her what a great conversation last night. He told her that if Clare doesn't have a rose by the time his turn is up, then his rose is going to her. She asks him if she gets another rose from someone else if they can still spend time together, and he said yes.

The roses are handed out...

Tanner -- Jade
Kirk -- Carly
Dan -- Ashley S.
Jonathan -- Juelia
Mikey -- Clare
Jared -- Ashley I. (and Lauren)
JJ -- Tenley

That leaves Jillian without a rose, and she is sent home.

JJ really struggled with his decision and it took him a long time to call Tenley's name. Jillian thought she had his rose in the bag. She was shocked. Tenley was so worried about going home because she has never gone home before, she's come in 2nd on both The Bachelor and Bachelor Pad.
