It's a two-fer this week! There were allegations of impropriety on BIP but everything's since been swept under the rug and thankfully BIP is still happening. Without a doubt, Corinne will settle with ABC for "an undisclosed sum".
Still on the Group Date
As for the Bachelorette, we're still on the longest group date in recent history and Kenny's taking Lee out to have some words with him. The rest of the guys "stay out of it" but are watching the entire drama unfolding.
Oh wait, this is the Bachelorette, not the Kenny and Lee show. Bryan's all in with Rachel. Blah blah blah, he sticks his tongue down her throat.
No, sorry, I'm wrong. We're back to Kenny and Lee. I'll give Kenny credit that he's keeping his cool but he's wasting his breath because he'll get no satisfaction out of confronting Lee because Lee won't admit to doing anything wrong.
Finally finally Rachel comes in to give the rose. I think she's going to give it to Bryan and winner winner chicken dinner! Maybe the rest of the guys (Iggy, Kenny I'm looking at you here) should focus LESS on spending time with Rachel talking about other guys and MORE time talking about themselves.
Somehow Kenny and Lee start arguing again. Eric and Josiah are laughing, entertained by the whole thing.
One-on-One with Jack Stone
Wow, we still have a one-on-one to go? I'd forgotten about Jack. I don't see Jack getting a rose on this date. There's nothing wrong with Jack Stone, he's just...kind of boring. Rach--the fact that you're both attorneys, around the same age and both live in Dallas doesn't suggest to me that you should be good for each other. It just means that you have three random things in common. I'm not seeing the connection there either. Rachel is "sick" and doesn't want to kiss him. Jack is talking this date up big time but you can tell that she's not feeling it.
Back at the House
Will and Lee discuss race relations and the stigma of calling a black man "aggressive". Lee either totally misses the point or is just as racist as has been suggested and says Kenny is playing the race card. Sigh. Will gives Lee the benefit of the doubt and calls him ignorant.
Back at the Date
Jack continues to talk about how quickly his feelings have developed. He's either lying to us or himself. Is it me or does he look creepy in his interviews? Kind of a, "I put on this facade but I'm actually a sociopath," or, "I hope nobody discovers the super creepy wall of everything Rachel I've put up in my apartment." Or something along those lines. I liked it better when he was just boring and not creepy or weird.
Rachel's not feeling the passion. There's something so odd about him and you can tell Rachel thinks he's odd too. I'm right! He's super creepy! He'd capture Rachel in his apartment and lock the door. Poor Jack is expecting a rose but it seems like he's putting on a show more than being sincere. Jack Stone doesn't like getting dumped on national TV. He's definitely taking down the Rachel wall when he gets home. I'm not sure what Jack said in the car, if anything, because they never showed it. He'll be forgotten like those dismissed before him.
The Rose Ceremony
Rachel decides to cancel the cocktail party. There's no discussion of Jack Stone's departure so apparently nobody is torn up about it. Iggy freaks out about the cancelled party. Kenny's concerned too but we know he's safe at least for a little bit because him and Lee are going on a two-on-one. I don't know how many guys are going home but Adam and Iggy are certainly on my list as high-risk for going home. Iggy, if you don't think you're part of the drama then you're part of the problem (that sounded more profound in my head). Wow, Adam gets a rose. Kenny makes some play on words that includes Lee, snakes and lizards.
Tickle Monster's time has ended and I'm amazed he made it this far. Maybe he'll end up on BIP. Despite his annoying tickling, he was dorky in a cute way. And apparently he's a physician? I see him as the new Evan. Thankfully Iggy's gone. Of course he cries.
We must move forward everyone--we're going to Norway next! I'm 100% positive that we won't find out in this episode who Rachel picks on the Kenny/Lee two-on-one, but the good news is we should find out in the next one!
Oslo, Norway
We get the obligatory shots of both Rachel and the men skipping around Norway. Rachel meets them in a pub and grabs Ryan for a one-on-one. Lee, clueless as ever, looks puzzled. Dean thinks that Bryan may not come back with a rose but I think Dean is delusional. Bryan would need to seriously eff this date up to not get a rose. Rachel can't understand why Bryan is single, but many would say the same about you, Rach, so give him a chance.
Back at the House
Eric doesn't directly call Rachel a racist but calls her out to Anthony on why only one black guy has gotten a one-on-one. Anthony seems to talk him off the ledge a bit and tells him he's reading too much into it.
Back at the Bryan Date
Rachel continues to think Bryan is too good to be true. She shares how her big sister was always the pretty one and she was the cool one so when she finally became "pretty" in college she didn't know how to react to it. Bryan attempts to relate to her by saying he didn't become pretty until senior year of high school. Sigh. Rachel doubts this as much as I do. Bryan declares his wuv feelings for Rachel. She swoons. And sorry Dean, but she gives Bryan the rose.
Back at the House
The door knocks for a date card. It's a group date card but Kenny and Lee aren't on the list and as a result are going on the two-on-one. Bryan and Kenny discuss Kenny's "plan of attack" for tomorrow. Sadly, Iggy would have been a better choice to handle this conversation more effectively because he's a consultant. But before we get to the two-on-one, which might start on this week's episode but certainly won't conclude, we need to get through the next group date.
The guys find out they'll be playing hand ball, a popular Norwegian sport. Coach Tom may be the Belichick of handball. Apparently Will and Alex have both played handball. The guys are all falling over themselves to get their paws on Rachel in some form or another. Why is Dean wearing his cup on the outside?
Back at the House
Kenny Facetimes with his daughter and it's adorable. Kenny needs to decide who he wants more--to go back to his daughter or stay and fight it out? Has Lee even kissed Rachel yet?
Back at the Date
Will and Rachel have a heart to heart. Rachel eats it up. Alex reads Rachel a letter, which she also eats up. Basically all of them bring physical or emotional gifts to the altar of Rachel. Then we get to Josiah, who lays it on super-thick and thankfully Rachel's not buying it. To Rachel's comments, I think he wants to win the competition more than he wants to win Rachel. I don't think Rachel's feedback really resonates (one has to be open to feedback to accept it) and overcompensates by bragging to the guys how well the conversation went.
Peter and Rachel end up in the hot tub. The other guys are nowhere to be found. Before she gives the rose out, I think it's going to be Peter since she and him were clearly at the hot tub for awhile. Presumably she spent the most time with the guy she wanted to spend the most time with and nobody came out to interrupt them. But we'll see. Maybe she'll surprise us. If she does, I'll pick Will. Surprise! It is Will, Peter's clearly disappointed and feels a little used. It doesn't feel great, does it Peter? To get used like that?
Waiting for the Two-on-One
It is awkward as the guys wait around for Rachel to show up for the two-on-one. The two-on-ones are known to be epic. It usually involves a villain. Chris Soules sent both women home on his two-on-one (I think, right? Ashley I and the weird widow? How pathetic is it that I remember that and yet I couldn't tell you what I did over the weekend? And I can rattle off the two-on-ones for Ben, Jojo, and Nick?). Will this be a case of both men getting sent home?
Also, I don't know why, but it bugs the crap out of me to see somebody younger than 60 wearing a Rolex. Maybe because most of the younger guys that I've known who had them were entitled tools. Lee is not breaking stereotypes. I digress.
The Date Begins
They are in the wilderness (also a common theme for the two-on-ones). Rachel pulls Kenny aside first and she looks like she's freezing. Rachel wants to trust him but I don't think she's at the point where her feelings are as strong for him, regardless of the Lee/Kenny dynamics. Rachel pulls Lee aside and Lee immediately starts talking about Kenny and starts lying his ass off. Now Rachel's more confused than ever.
Rachel pulls Kenny aside AGAIN to tell Kenny what Lee had said. Obviously we have to wait until tonight to find out what happens. I can't remember the last time I wrote a post less than 24 hours after it aired. Hazzah!

Show review: The Bachelorette, Week 4
It feels like it's been forevah! The BIP drama hasn't helped. In case you forgot, Rachel just showed DeMario the door AGAIN and the cocktail party is in full swing. The men are starting to get real bitchy and jealous. Who do YOU think will start crying first?
Continuation of Last Episode's Cocktail Party
Eric is going off, Lee is giddy about pushing buttons and Iggy is yet again, wearing his consultant hat ("What's your ideal outcome of this situation?"). It's been a few weeks so just when I was starting to remember people's names, I've forgotten them again. Lee is lurking while Rach and Kenny (I think that's his name) are talking about Kenny's life goals beyond wrestling. I really like Rachel's coat AND dress. Some of the other white guys talk about how Lee's a little bitch. Weasel's the word that comes to mind for me. Lee carves the word enchanting into a random piece of wood for Rachel. They don't zoom in on it so we can assume by that and Rachel's fake reaction that it looked effing odd.
Dean gently lays down the "Lee is racist" card, which we knew was coming. Dean says Lee picks fight with the people he doesn't interact with in a "cultural sense". Apparently Lee can see beyond Dean's capped teeth. Perhaps because he's used to other rednecks that also have capped teeth or have terrible dentures?
Rachel is clearly smitten with Bryan but thinks he's too good to be true. He disagrees and actually gives her the line, "when you are weak I'll be strong." Just wait, Rach. Wait for the day when Bryan comes home in a rage because some physician yet again made a snide comment that chiropractors are not real doctors.
Kenny tries to confront Lee but gets nowhere. Rachel's super annoyed by the drama. Lee goes to speak to the male model who is about as engaging as the doll that AJ brought (or was the doll's name AJ? And when will the male model get some actual screen time???)
Rachel's clearly frustrated and even though we haven't seen her directly talking about race with any guys yet, she's feeling the pressure of being the first Black Bachelorette and how she's undoubtedly gotten a hard time from friends and family. Fortunately Chris comes out of wherever he lurks to help move things along. He offers to crack skulls and by cracking skulls I mean tell the guys that the cocktail party is over and looks at them with disappointment because this is all their fault.
On a side note, Alex is wearing yet another sweet suit. I know I've mocked him but I'm starting to love his outfits.
Rose Ceremony
Rachel scolds the guys and the rose ceremony starts. By some miracle the Tickle Monster makes it yet another week. Lee calls Kenny a meathead which is hilarious coming from a racist redneck. Iggy makes it another week too. If I was Rachel I'd probably ask Lee to just stop it with the faces. The final rose goes to Lee (Rachel hasn't even announced it and it's obvious he's staying because again, the Producers told her she had to). Diggy, male model and Bryce, we hardly knew thee. Rachel seems genuinely disappointed that she had to let Diggy go. Diggy cries.
The guys find out they're going to Hilton Head and are as giddy as school girls. The date card shows up and Dean gets the date card. Bryan is not happy.
One-on-One Date
They drive out to an open field and they find out they're riding in a blimp. It's difficult to tell if Rachel is surprised by this or not but I'm guessing no. Dean is freaking the eff out because he's not a fan of heights. Rachel says it's like "riding a bus." A really really high bus. Rach seems annoyed that Dean is not just saying he's afraid of heights but that he's actually afraid of heights. She's already assured him that she will not hold the barf bag for him if he throws up. It all turns out okay because Rachel forces him to sit in the co-pilot seat and he steers for a bit. I think he still looked freaked out but what do I know. They make out for a bit.
The blimp flies by the resort and the guys aren't pleased by the "Rachel and Dean 4ever" sign. The guys are threatened by this but tear him down because he's only 25 and Rachel's not going to want to end up with a guy that's 7 years younger than her.
Back at the house, the second date card of the episode shows up and it's a group date card. Jack Stone (who I still don't understand why he uses his full name) is getting the one-on-one. Lee makes a passive aggressive comment that there's no shame in going home on a one-on-one date. Thanks dude.
Rachel and Dean go to dinner and Dean talks about his upbringing which is a mix of religion and outdoor activities. He then shares the story of his mom dying from breast cancer and as much as I want to be cynical about him, that is a topic that obviously hits home for me, so I can't be cynical. But he's doing an inappropriate laughing thing because he's never told anybody before and he's baring his soul on national TV. Dean obviously got the rose.
They of course transition to the concert part of the night with yet another country artist that I've never heard of. Either the contestants love country or its demographic does. It is, of course, the best date evah.
Group Date
This is a huge group date and Rachel is worried about the boys bringing drama. They're going on a booze cruise. Nothing can go wrong when those two words are in a sentence together. The guys do a dance-off of sorts which is odd and awkward. Josiah is insecure and overcompensating by talking about how sexy he is and showing off. Then they do a push-up contest. Is Rachel drunk already? Why is she doing this? THEN, they start rapping. I guess you need to be creative when you're on a boat all. day. long. If these were the highlights of an hours-long cruise then it must have been a really boring day. Anyway, for the second part of the date they have a spelling bee. Yes, you read that right. And they have roped random spectators into this event. I haven't seen Iggy's face yet but this seems like something he'd be into. Corre1ction, Iggy THINKS he's going to do well, but maybe he won't do THAT well.
There are judges who may or may not be Chris Harrison's kids. The guys are doing better than I would have expected. Thankfully it eventually ends and Josiah wins if anybody still cares.
In what seems like the longest group date in Bachelorette history, Josiah is feeling super cocky and drinking out of his Spelling Bee Trophy. He's super confident about getting the rose. I think he's going to have to get past Peter first though. Iggy starts stirring the pot with Josiah. Then he comes back and tells the guys that he was talking about Josiah. I totally agree with Josiah and Eric in questioning why Iggy's spending more time talking about the guys in the house instead of himself. However, I don't see Iggy bringing steroids to the house. But what the hell do I know? But who has time to worry about Iggy when the other snake in the house, Lee, is getting phony with Rachel and now Rachel doesn't know what to think about anyone. It's sooooo confusing.
Rachel's ready to talk to Kenny to get his side of the Lee/Kenny argument. The conversation doesn't go as well as Kenny hoped it was going to go. Kenny pulls Lee aside for a "chat"...and we have to wait to find out what happens. We DO know that Kenny and Lee end up together on the two-on-one and we know those are epic! Thankfully there TWO shows next week. Which means I need to prioritize my nights better.

The Bachelorette: Week 3
When we left things last week, DeMario had just showed up. Let's get right to it shall we?
Rachelis told by the producers she has to speak to DeMario is impressed that DeMario had the guts to come to the mansion and out of respect goes to hear him out. The guys come out with torches in the interest of kicking his butt. DeMario wants to move forward and gain Rachel's trust back. He begs her to let him come back but Rachel isn't having any of it. She tells him he's acting like a boy and she needs a man. He seems to have moved on because word has it he's on the next season of BIP. DeMario doesn't seem that disappointed by Rachel's rejection. Any other dude that isn't being real best watch out because Rachel will show you to the curb too.
The men feel great about DeMario's rejection, part deux. Remember when I said Tickle Monster was kind of cute? Yeah I take that back. He comes out with super weird large hands. Kenny continues to push very hard on the single dad thing.
Blake's obsession with Whaboom continues. With any luck they'll both be gone tonight. Whaboom tells Rachel about Blake standing over Whaboom's bed licking a banana. Rachel has the most bizarre follow-up conversation with Blake about this peeled banana incident. Blake denies on the basis that he doesn't eat carbs. Of course!
Rose Ceremony
Thankfully Chris walks in to start the rose ceremony. Tickle Hands gets a rose relatively early on. Alex shows off by speaking Russian. I wouldn't choose Alex because he wears a bow tie, so he's clearly trying too hard. Brady (the male model? who hasn't gotten any screen time yet this season) also gets a rose. Lee the potential racist gets a rose. Iggy's sweating and will be in tears at some point. Whaboom makes comments throughout the ceremony. Even Fred gets a rose. The final rose goes out to Diggy and by the grace of God, Blake and Whaboom are GONE. I couldn't tell you the name of the third guy who didn't get the rose. Blake, being clueless, gives Rachel his opinion of getting eliminated. He also blames Lucas, not realizing he's just as annoying as Whaboom. Lucas continues to push Blake's buttons. To be honest I'd push Blake's buttons too because it seems like it would be really fun. It's pretty amazing that Blake says Lucas is attention seeking since they were on the same reality show prior to joining the Bachelorette.
Brand New Day
Thankfully we finally say goodbye to Lucas and Blake and we move on. Chris comes in with the first date card for this week--group date #1. And it's the Ellen one. It turns out Ellen is a super fan too and gives her opinion of the various guys as they get out of the van. Ellen agrees that Tickle Monster needs to go. The guys find out they'll be on the show . The guys take their shirts off and dance in the audience. Will is grinding and twerking as is Alex. Can you imagine how weird this would be if it was the woman who had to take their clothes off? Tickle Monster had a better body than I would have thought. Then they play "Never have I ever". Alex is wearing some sort of gangster pants for Russians. They're not track pants but they're some sort of odd workout pants. I'm not sure why the guys are so surprised that Rachel's kissed multiple guys. It's week three people! I think Freddy's days are numbered.
At the night part of the date, Alex wins points with Rachel. She goes off and makes out with quite a few of them (which sounds WAY more judgey than it sounds). Freddy's very insecure that he hasn't kissed her. He asks her if it's okay and the whole interaction seemed awkward. Rachel didn't seem into it so I'm guessing he was into it and she wasn't. Tickle Monster didn't appear to get any action at all.
Rachel picks up the rose and takes Fred away, implying he'll get the rose. But...then Rachel starts talking and it's clear he isn't. She lets him down easy and sends him away. And she's still holding that rose. They have a very awkward elevator ride down and she says goodbye. After she gets back to the group Alex, now wearing purple pants, gets the rose.
The guys are all falling in love with Rachel. Sigh. Of course they are. They've never felt this way about a girl, like evah. Eric's feeling insecure and I'm guessing he's going home soon too.
One-on-One Date
The show randomly transitions to Anthony, who apparently got the one-on-one date card. I don't have a vibe yet on Anthony but it looks like they're riding horses on Rodeo Drive. Nothing can go wrong here. Apparently you can ride horses on Rodeo Drive. Who knew? I'd be very nervous riding a horse for the first time down Rodeo Drive. And...you can take the horses inside the stores too. At least into Western stores. Ted (the horse) poops in the store. Again with the pixelating poop.
They don't show Anthony getting the date card but they do show the date card "ceremony" for the second date. Eric continues to freak out. Brady the Model finally gets a date. Maybe we'll hear him speak.
Anthony seems far too normal to be on this show. He had a loving upbringing and "perfect childhood". He's keeping his skeletons in the closet for now. They make out in front of the quartet and the quartet awkwardly tries to look anywhere else so they don't have to watch.
Iggy is annoyed that Eric is attempting to steal away the "most insecure" award from him and has some words for Eric. The interaction makes no sense so it's not even worth commenting on.
Group Date #2
Eric continues to whine. Rachel comes in with her posse which includes Raven, Corrine, Jasmine and Alexis. Interestingly enough, all four of them are on BIP. Am I the only one that thinks that it wouldn't have been asking too much for Raven to have worn a shirt with two sides? Everyone else, even Corinne(!), is dressed semi-normally and not like the one that's on the date. Raven--it's not your date. These are Rachel's guys. They'll be dismissed soon enough and will be your future prey on BIP but not yet honey. The guys do pole dances on the bus. They are way too good at it and it's creepy.
The guys find out they're going mud wrestling. This is both awkward and awesome. Anytime the men are objectified as much as the women on the Bachelor seasons I'm down. Kenny's a little too excited since this is his thing. The guys look so awkward. The women on the sidelines yell demeaning things to the men. Are there multiple Jack S's? Why does Jack go by his full name? Because it makes him sound like a superhero's alter ego? "Hi, I'm Jack Stone. Lawyer by day, superhero by night." Shockingly Bryce beats Kenny in the final. Most of the guys look uncomfortable. Rachel's friends are just as enamored by Dean and his teeth. Raven warns Rachel about Eric. Corinne looks perplexed the whole time.
At the evening portion of the group Kenny, kicks things off by revealing to Rachel that he used to be a Chippendale's dancer and shows her some of his moves. Oddly enough, she seems to be into it. Eric pulls her aside and he shares how vulnerable he feels blah blah blah. Rachel shares that he's the latest who's not there "for the right reasons". Even though we have no idea why the guys think that, Eric is a worse actor than DeMario and gives his version of a confused/perplexed face.
Eric immediately goes back to confront the guys. Somehow this translates into it's not that he's not here for the right reasons, it's that he's never been in love. Which is apparently a prerequisite for the show now. And then it changed to how was Eric screaming at Iggy the night before. Lee keeps telling Eric he loves him to death. Eric thinks that Lee's afraid of him because he's now seen Eric as "angry black man", which I think is spot on.
Surprisingly, Rachel gives the rose to Eric. Lee is not happy and very fakely tells Eric how happy he is for him.
Cocktail Party
After the break it's cocktail party time. Iggy, yet again concerned that he's going to get cut, pulls Rachel aside to further defame Eric and share his interaction with Eric. Perhaps Iggy's time would have been better spent talking about himself and not Eric. Iggy then tells Eric what he did. Iggy actually tells Eric what his "opportunities for growth" are. Then Slimy Lee throws Eric under the bus. Rachel is confused about the Eric that the guys describe and the Eric she sees. Rachel's not into the drama and tells Eric she's questioning her decision to give him the rose. Rachel gives him a warning and lets him keep the rose for now.
Eric summons all the guys in the room and starts giving a crazy ass speech. Bryan's uncomfortable with Mr. Crazy. Lee and Eric go at it and I could care less who's in the right or wrong here. Oh my gosh, the drama. These men need to stop being little bitches.
Coming Next Week
Race relations is a front and center topic next week. Rachel gets upset because she didn't want to address race relations on her season. She's just looking for love people, and shouldn't love be color blind?
Credits
We finally hear the model talk. He doesn't sound at all what I thought he would. Thankfully Brady's here to break the stereotypes of male models. They're just like us! He shows Rachel one of his go-to modeling moves, the Booger Roll. It's as gross as you'd might expect. I'm pretty sure Rachel's not impressed. You want to talk about a guy that's there for the wrong reasons? How about the male MODEL? My guess is he'll head straight to BIP and when he shows up people will say, "who is that"?
Rachel
The men feel great about DeMario's rejection, part deux. Remember when I said Tickle Monster was kind of cute? Yeah I take that back. He comes out with super weird large hands. Kenny continues to push very hard on the single dad thing.
Blake's obsession with Whaboom continues. With any luck they'll both be gone tonight. Whaboom tells Rachel about Blake standing over Whaboom's bed licking a banana. Rachel has the most bizarre follow-up conversation with Blake about this peeled banana incident. Blake denies on the basis that he doesn't eat carbs. Of course!
Rose Ceremony
Thankfully Chris walks in to start the rose ceremony. Tickle Hands gets a rose relatively early on. Alex shows off by speaking Russian. I wouldn't choose Alex because he wears a bow tie, so he's clearly trying too hard. Brady (the male model? who hasn't gotten any screen time yet this season) also gets a rose. Lee the potential racist gets a rose. Iggy's sweating and will be in tears at some point. Whaboom makes comments throughout the ceremony. Even Fred gets a rose. The final rose goes out to Diggy and by the grace of God, Blake and Whaboom are GONE. I couldn't tell you the name of the third guy who didn't get the rose. Blake, being clueless, gives Rachel his opinion of getting eliminated. He also blames Lucas, not realizing he's just as annoying as Whaboom. Lucas continues to push Blake's buttons. To be honest I'd push Blake's buttons too because it seems like it would be really fun. It's pretty amazing that Blake says Lucas is attention seeking since they were on the same reality show prior to joining the Bachelorette.
Brand New Day
Thankfully we finally say goodbye to Lucas and Blake and we move on. Chris comes in with the first date card for this week--group date #1. And it's the Ellen one. It turns out Ellen is a super fan too and gives her opinion of the various guys as they get out of the van. Ellen agrees that Tickle Monster needs to go. The guys find out they'll be on the show . The guys take their shirts off and dance in the audience. Will is grinding and twerking as is Alex. Can you imagine how weird this would be if it was the woman who had to take their clothes off? Tickle Monster had a better body than I would have thought. Then they play "Never have I ever". Alex is wearing some sort of gangster pants for Russians. They're not track pants but they're some sort of odd workout pants. I'm not sure why the guys are so surprised that Rachel's kissed multiple guys. It's week three people! I think Freddy's days are numbered.
At the night part of the date, Alex wins points with Rachel. She goes off and makes out with quite a few of them (which sounds WAY more judgey than it sounds). Freddy's very insecure that he hasn't kissed her. He asks her if it's okay and the whole interaction seemed awkward. Rachel didn't seem into it so I'm guessing he was into it and she wasn't. Tickle Monster didn't appear to get any action at all.
Rachel picks up the rose and takes Fred away, implying he'll get the rose. But...then Rachel starts talking and it's clear he isn't. She lets him down easy and sends him away. And she's still holding that rose. They have a very awkward elevator ride down and she says goodbye. After she gets back to the group Alex, now wearing purple pants, gets the rose.
The guys are all falling in love with Rachel. Sigh. Of course they are. They've never felt this way about a girl, like evah. Eric's feeling insecure and I'm guessing he's going home soon too.
One-on-One Date
The show randomly transitions to Anthony, who apparently got the one-on-one date card. I don't have a vibe yet on Anthony but it looks like they're riding horses on Rodeo Drive. Nothing can go wrong here. Apparently you can ride horses on Rodeo Drive. Who knew? I'd be very nervous riding a horse for the first time down Rodeo Drive. And...you can take the horses inside the stores too. At least into Western stores. Ted (the horse) poops in the store. Again with the pixelating poop.
They don't show Anthony getting the date card but they do show the date card "ceremony" for the second date. Eric continues to freak out. Brady the Model finally gets a date. Maybe we'll hear him speak.
Anthony seems far too normal to be on this show. He had a loving upbringing and "perfect childhood". He's keeping his skeletons in the closet for now. They make out in front of the quartet and the quartet awkwardly tries to look anywhere else so they don't have to watch.
Iggy is annoyed that Eric is attempting to steal away the "most insecure" award from him and has some words for Eric. The interaction makes no sense so it's not even worth commenting on.
Group Date #2
Eric continues to whine. Rachel comes in with her posse which includes Raven, Corrine, Jasmine and Alexis. Interestingly enough, all four of them are on BIP. Am I the only one that thinks that it wouldn't have been asking too much for Raven to have worn a shirt with two sides? Everyone else, even Corinne(!), is dressed semi-normally and not like the one that's on the date. Raven--it's not your date. These are Rachel's guys. They'll be dismissed soon enough and will be your future prey on BIP but not yet honey. The guys do pole dances on the bus. They are way too good at it and it's creepy.
The guys find out they're going mud wrestling. This is both awkward and awesome. Anytime the men are objectified as much as the women on the Bachelor seasons I'm down. Kenny's a little too excited since this is his thing. The guys look so awkward. The women on the sidelines yell demeaning things to the men. Are there multiple Jack S's? Why does Jack go by his full name? Because it makes him sound like a superhero's alter ego? "Hi, I'm Jack Stone. Lawyer by day, superhero by night." Shockingly Bryce beats Kenny in the final. Most of the guys look uncomfortable. Rachel's friends are just as enamored by Dean and his teeth. Raven warns Rachel about Eric. Corinne looks perplexed the whole time.
At the evening portion of the group Kenny, kicks things off by revealing to Rachel that he used to be a Chippendale's dancer and shows her some of his moves. Oddly enough, she seems to be into it. Eric pulls her aside and he shares how vulnerable he feels blah blah blah. Rachel shares that he's the latest who's not there "for the right reasons". Even though we have no idea why the guys think that, Eric is a worse actor than DeMario and gives his version of a confused/perplexed face.
Eric immediately goes back to confront the guys. Somehow this translates into it's not that he's not here for the right reasons, it's that he's never been in love. Which is apparently a prerequisite for the show now. And then it changed to how was Eric screaming at Iggy the night before. Lee keeps telling Eric he loves him to death. Eric thinks that Lee's afraid of him because he's now seen Eric as "angry black man", which I think is spot on.
Surprisingly, Rachel gives the rose to Eric. Lee is not happy and very fakely tells Eric how happy he is for him.
Cocktail Party
After the break it's cocktail party time. Iggy, yet again concerned that he's going to get cut, pulls Rachel aside to further defame Eric and share his interaction with Eric. Perhaps Iggy's time would have been better spent talking about himself and not Eric. Iggy then tells Eric what he did. Iggy actually tells Eric what his "opportunities for growth" are. Then Slimy Lee throws Eric under the bus. Rachel is confused about the Eric that the guys describe and the Eric she sees. Rachel's not into the drama and tells Eric she's questioning her decision to give him the rose. Rachel gives him a warning and lets him keep the rose for now.
Eric summons all the guys in the room and starts giving a crazy ass speech. Bryan's uncomfortable with Mr. Crazy. Lee and Eric go at it and I could care less who's in the right or wrong here. Oh my gosh, the drama. These men need to stop being little bitches.
Coming Next Week
Race relations is a front and center topic next week. Rachel gets upset because she didn't want to address race relations on her season. She's just looking for love people, and shouldn't love be color blind?
Credits
We finally hear the model talk. He doesn't sound at all what I thought he would. Thankfully Brady's here to break the stereotypes of male models. They're just like us! He shows Rachel one of his go-to modeling moves, the Booger Roll. It's as gross as you'd might expect. I'm pretty sure Rachel's not impressed. You want to talk about a guy that's there for the wrong reasons? How about the male MODEL? My guess is he'll head straight to BIP and when he shows up people will say, "who is that"?

Show review: The Bachelorette, Week 2
Now that the first episode is over, let's see who Rachel starts making connections with. We start things off with Rachel and her adorable dog.
Chris meets with the men to get their thoughts on Rachel. They all gush. I don't remember half of these guys. There are two group dates and one one-on-one date this week. They get the date card for the first group date, the guys have an awkward toast and head to the date.
First Group Date
Lucas continues to annoy the other guys. Blake, who is almost as annoying, continues to make it his mission to expose Lucas for who he really is. I think Blake's energy would be better spent on not dressing like a loser.
Randomly Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis show up to help them out. The bar is set low to inquire if the men have health insurance and a job. The guys are put through an intense obstacle course. Ashton doesn't think that Rachel's guy is in the group. I think I'm with him on that. It's unclear why the poop is pixelated? Can one not show poop on TV? Even though I'm assuming it's not real poop? I'm very confused. Iggy ends up in the dog house first. Ashton, Rachel and Mila are rolling on the floor laughing. It was mildly amusing but I think I would have found it funnier in person. Lucas is leading and he's in it to win it. To everyone's immense disappointment Lucas wins. Dylan takes his frustration out on his baby, which is uncalled for.
The gang transitions to hanging out and Rachel tells the guys how great they are. Rachel heads off with Lucas first. I'm confused as to how Dylan knows Lucas. When he's not whabooming he's dorky in an endearing way. Next Rachel sits down with Fred the Stalker and she basically tells him that he set a terrible example and allowed the ongoing stereotyping of black children as troublemakers. I'm not into this guy. Rachel's not impressed with any of the guys either. Back at the house Ryan gets the first one-on-one date card.
Back at the date, Dylan continues to spend more time talking about Lucas than Rachel. The more he talks the more I like Lucas. Lucas has become the Chad of this season except for the fact that he doesn't appear to be on steroids or obsessed with working out and hasn't revealed his anger issues yet.
Stop the record. Dylan lives with Whaboom's ex-girlfriend? That's random. Dylan needs to tamper his hopes that Lucas is going home because I don't think it's happening quite yet. Dylan then confronts Lucas and to Dylan's chagrin, Lucas could care less and ultimately dismisses Dylan, which made the Tickle Monster and me giggle. If he didn't consider himself a Tickle Monster, I think I'd like TM more. But we'll see how it goes when he gets more screen time.
The awkward conversation continues with Dean. As you may remember from last week, I'm not a fan of Dean because of his capped teeth. And yet Rachel's totally into him.
But who has time for the actual Bachelorette when we can see Dylan and Lucas continue to go after each other? Kenny is totally bored with the conversation and heads to talk to Rachel. Maybe he'll make a move. Because Rachel's due for somebody to kiss her. I like that Kenny's a little older. For the record, Dean's only 25. Why is a 25 YO man on the Bachelorette? I get why the women go on that young, but he's just a pup. Anyway, it's time to give out the rose. I think it's going to Dean even though I hope she gives it to Kenny. Sigh, I'm right. The rest of the men fake smile. Let's see if Dean will have the balls to kiss Rachel now. And he did and promptly had Rachel's lipstick all over him.
One-on-One Date
Thankfully the group date is finally over and we can move on to the one-on-one with Peter. But first we get some foreshadowing with DeMario talking about how much he's into Rachel. Josiah's not ready to roll over to DeMario and they puff their chests and compare penis sizes.
On to the date. Peter is driving, which bugs me. Why can't Rachel drive? You get to go around town in a Tesla. That is so freaking cool. I'd drive that thing everywhere if I could. Rachel teases that their date is actually a two-on-one and surprise! It's her dog, who's name is Copper and gets around amazingly well on three legs. Rachel says she's going to explain why Copper has a cast but we don't hear it so the mystery remains. They go to Dog Fest in Palm Springs. Rachel is totally into Ryan.
Back at the house, DeMario continues to brag about how he's here for the right reasons. The second group date card arrives. There are no tears of who's been left out of all the dates so I assume that everyone got something this week. Also I can't tell all of the guys apart yet.
Back at Peter's date they start talking about their gaps, which as somebody that also has a gap, I love. I'm not a fan of stubble and apparently I had minimal comments on Peter in last week's post, but he's starting to grow on me. Although in the interest of full disclosure, I've been calling him Ryan for some reason, so I had to go back and correct myself. For the record, Addie also has a gap and I have no intention of getting hers "fixed" because my parents did spend money on braces for me and it didn't do a Gd thing. But enough about me.
Rach, I don't think it's that unusual that you both went to therapy. LOTS of people go to therapy. But kudos for both of your openness to talk about it. Anyway, Rachel is a smitten kitten (her words) and they watch fireworks after she gives him the rose. Peter may indeed be a front runner so we'll keep an eye on him. And for future reference if I a refer to a Ryan you'll know it's Peter.
Second Group date
We're now officially an hour in so it's clear that the drama from this date will be milked for everything it's worth. Let's get started. Obviously it's basketball related. They're pulling out the stops with the celebrity cameos this season because they are joined by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, one of the best players of all time. Perhaps he's also a secret Bachelorette fan? Lee is terrible but gives it his all. DeMario keeps showing off. Kareem seems a little lost, maybe this isn't quite what he was expecting. The guys don't seem as intense as they did with the first group date but they're told they're going to play a game in front of people, so we'll see what happens then.
They start the game and they're all terrible. Everyone keeps their egos in check except, of course, for DeMario. As the crowd filters out, Lexi introduces herself. Maybe it's her eyebrows but there's something off about her. That doesn't mean that I don't love that she's doing what she's doing. DeMario immediately pretends he doesn't know Lexi.
The other guys aren't sure why DeMario was pulled out. He nervously tries to talk his way out of it but Lexi swears not only on her father's grave but on her two kittens' (graves?) so you know she's serious. She's kind of trashy, right? And yet he's clearly caught red-handed because he can't get his story straight.
Rachel tells him to get the f*** out and it's awesome. Lexi randomly walks out. No goodbye. DeMario tries to play off his getting kicked off the show. DeMario--stop talking. Chris walks out to talk her off the ledge but she's having none of it so he just stands there awkwardly while she goes in the bathroom.
Rachel goes to get the guys and tells them what happened and that if anybody else has a girlfriend they should tell her now. Surprisingly, no one does and everyone is glad that DeMario is gone even if they're not blatantly saying it. We still have about 20 minutes left so I suspect DeMario isn't totally gone yet.
As the guys head out into the second part of the night, the guys try to rally around Rachel, who's clearly subdued. Josiah tells her what she wants to hear and decides that making out with her is what she needs to get her mind off of things.
Alex the Meathead is Russian, not Greek. He sings to her and it's awful. Eric talks about love languages with her. Then it's rose time and Eric's hoping for the rose but my guess is Josiah is getting the rose. I'm two-fer this week because Josiah does indeed get the rose. The guy who read his inspirational quote(s) was disappointed to not get the rose.
Cocktail/Rose Ceremony Night
Rachel gives a speech to kick off the night and Bryan steals her first. Apparently he didn't get a date this week so I was wrong, not everyone got a date. I don't think the male model did either. Anyway, Bryan gives her a massage. While that's happening, DeMario shows back up at the house because now he's had some time to get his story straight and he's ready to persuade Rachel that he's not a douche. Security meets him and say they'll talk to Chris. Chris is his ever gracious self and asks DeMario what he's doing at the mansion. Chris offers to get Rachel. Chris walks in and the guys freak out. Chris interrupts Rachel and Freddy's (it seems we're calling him Freddy now) conversation and he pulls her aside and tells her that DeMario is at the house. Rachel decides to meet with him to find out what he could possibly have to say. The guys rally to spy on them and/or confront him themselves. And of course...we have to wait until next week to find out what happens on next week's "explosive new episode".
Chris meets with the men to get their thoughts on Rachel. They all gush. I don't remember half of these guys. There are two group dates and one one-on-one date this week. They get the date card for the first group date, the guys have an awkward toast and head to the date.
