Season Hi-lights:
Villain of the season -- Chad
Obvious front-runner all season -- Jordan (RealitySteve dubs it the "Jordan and JoJo Show")
Drunk on Night 1 -- Daniel, Nick S

Episode 1: Limos
Every season, the antics the suitors come up with for their exit from the limo are always corny and seem to get crazier all the time. Well, this time is no different, as you can see from the cast photo from Night 1 - a Santa Claus and a man in a kilt.



First Impression Rose: Jordan
Receive Roses (20): Alex, Ali, Brandon, Chad, Chase, Christian, Daniel, Derek, Evan, Grant, James F., James S., James T., Jordan (first impression rose), Luke, Nick B., Robby, Vinny, Wells, Will
Eliminated (6): Coley, Jake, Jon, Nick S., Peter, Sal

Episode 2

Group Date: 10 guys compete in a fireman training course; Top 3: Grant, Robby, Wells. No surprise Grant is named the winner (he's a firefighter). Wells gets the group date rose (note: he just about passed out during the training course).
1-on-1 Date: Derek - private plane to San Francisco for a picnic; he gets a rose
Group Date: Chad, James T, Christian, Alex, Jordan, Nick B; LA Live, then SportsNation studios and the guys compete in 3 sporting-style events. James T. gets the group date rose. Event of note on this date: Chad refers to JoJo as "naggy".
Receive Roses: Alex, Ali, Chad, Chase, Christian, Daniel, Derek, Evan, Grant, James F., James T., Jordan, Luke, Nick B., Robby, Vinny, Wells
Eliminated: Brandon, James S.,Will


Episode 3
1-on-1 Date: Chase - hot Yoga; he gets the rose
Group Date: Nick B., Chad, James F., Evan, Christian, Daniel, Vinny, Ali, Grant, Jordan, Wells, Alex - Sex talks; depending on what they show, there could be some very, very inappropriate and disgusting things shared based on what the guys (and JoJo) shared. RealitySteve went into great detail about what each one shared...not worth repeating. Evan gets the group date rose.
1-on-1 Date: James T. - swing dancing; he gets the rose
Receive Roses: Alex, Chad, Chase, Daniel, Derek, Evan, Grant, James F., James T., Jordan, Luke, Robby, Vinny, Wells
Eliminated: Ali, Christian, Nick B.
Event of Note: There is a pool party before the Rose Ceremony. In the promos, Evan is bleeding - it's not because someone hit him - he did it diving. Also, this is where Chris Harrison pulls Chad aside to talk about his threats and making the other guys uncomfortable.

Episode 4
1-on-1 Date: Luke - sledding in the woods, hot tub, Dan + Shay performance; he got the rose
Group Date: Grant, Jordan, Chase, Robby, Vinny, James T., Evan, Wells, James F., Derek, Daniel - ferry ride to Heinz Field and guest Ben Roethlisberger
2-on-1 Date: Alex and Chad; both were marines and Alex is not a fan of Chad. Alex gets the rose. Chad is sent home, but goes back to the resort where everyone is celebrating him going home - he sees this and things get crazy. He gets in Jordan's face and starts poking him and getting physical.
Receive Roses: Alex, Chase, Derek, Evan, Grant, James T., Jordan, Luke, Robby, Wells

RealitySteve has dug up some interesting tidbits about the lovely new couple, JoJo and Jordan. The word is: expect to be wooed and charmed by Jordan. That's all well and good, but apparently Jordan's past and his motives are not so genuine. 

The first piece of info is that Jordan and JoJo actually talked - quite a bit - BEFORE filming began. This is not the norm for the show, and he was the ONLY guy to do so. This bit of insider info will make it easier to understand why Jordan got the first impression rose, and why they had a makeout session on Night 1 (RealitySteve called it a "slobberfest"). 

So, what else has been discovered about Jordan, other than the fact that he is the brother of NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers? Well, according to his dad, he has no trouble with the ladies and thinks that the show will help his career (not sure what career exactly, seeing as he says he's a "former NFL player", who actually never really played. Insiders are saying that his main goal of being on the show is to be "The Bachelor". Apparently, the night before he left to film the show, he was with his "girlfriend", whom he made to believe that he wanted to be with after the show was over and that the whole thing was a business decision. The show wrapped filming a week ago, and he hasn't contacted her yet. Word is, she is now very embarrassed by the whole thing, so most likely won't be coming forward with her story. 

There's also a rumor about Jordan and Brittany Farrar. Brittany is Oliva Munn's trainer. Olivia is Jordan's brother Aaron's girlfriend. Apparently that relationship didn't end very well. Aaron and Olivia have remained friends with Brittany, however, Aaron and Jordan don't have much of a relationship. 

Back to Jordan wanting to be "The Bachelor". RealitySteve got word that Jordan's plan was to make it to the end, and then leave on his own, while still making himself look good. It looks like he decided not to go through with his original plan because he figured he will look better if he and JoJo are a couple at the end instead. 

JoJo may not be all innocent in this, but there's no way to know. Who knows, maybe she's in on the whole thing? She doesn't have a squeaky clean past. Remember her ex-boyfriend, Chad, who left her flowers and a note during her season with Ben? He claimed they were together when she left to be on the show. And then, there's the rumors about JoJo talking to the forever-runner-up Nick Viall, whom she talked to during the airing of her season on The Bachelor. They met up, but then she was chosen as "The Bachelorette". 

Of course, nothing can be proven...all just rumors...but very interesting, nonetheless. We'll see what happens in about 10 weeks at the After the Final Rose
