Hey Ty….Dad’s home…checkin’ in and checkin’ out who will fit in with him in his hometown. J flew home with his 5 girlfriends to see who is right for J and Ty.
So the girls are released from the house to travel to Seattle…and they settle into the gorgeous Fairmont property….the Georgian. The girls get a lovely suite on the 11th floor – the Cascade room. And yes it was a cascade of emotions..and in my opinion, the most dramatic rose ceremony yet. I actually shed a tear or three at the Rose Ceremony..ahhh…I can’t believe it!!
But what lead us to that sad conclusion..some rigourous romantic dates that only J can throw down. Well for the first one was a true HOMEtown date. Melissa had to come over to J’s house b/c Ty didn’t want Jason to go out. So another date that was going to be ‘chill’. Well Melissa chose to chill first in her oddly designed serpent dress then in her stretchy pants. Melissa is adorable…but is she ready for this…she thinks so..and apparently so does J.
Then the foursome…good for a golf game, awkward for a date. Jason tests their sea legs on the boat. Stephanie gets to steer..which she did incredibly capably in that very distracting hoodie/vest/animal byproduct. Where does she pick up some of these outfits?
Then off they go to appropriately named Kiss FM..where he named Stephanie as favourite date, and Molly as best kisser. Then back to the hotel for some very fancy looking food and continue conversing. J pulls Jillian aside..and for the first time we see some emotion from our Jillian. She admitted that she didn’t come to the Bachelor for the right reasons..i.e. true love and forever..but rather for travel, some adventure, meet some interesting people..but she experienced a shift and is developing feelings for him.
Last one on one is with Eva Mendes..I mean Naomi FINALLY gets a one on one date…she gets a plane ride over Seattle then some wall climbing..at Sport Chek. Weird. But Naomi enthusiastically proclaims that this is the best date EVER…then amidst the camping section of the sporting goods store, they have a fake fire, some fondue and some ooey gooey goodness of a one on one date.
Back at the Georgian we have a new meaning for beer tub girls with Melissa and Jillian sitting in a bubble bath, beers in hand, in the hotel room tub with Stephanie and Molly sitting on the bathroom floor. Huh? Did the producers not secure a hot tub for this episode. I’m sure someone in logistics got in trouble for that.
After all the dates. J needs a friend. Who you gonna call on this amazing journey…your mom? Sibling? Best friend??? Nope. Chris!! He happens to be in the neighbourhood and he makes housecalls. Chris comes over for an Oceanside chat with J. Chris would be a good therapist. He explores all options and is an active listener, never leading, never judging. He’s like a Bachelor buddy. After J draws no conclusions, Chris lets himself out and J is left staring out at the water…and pondering his Bachelor fate.
The show, not missing a beat nor a cliché, finds J sleepless (in Seattle)….wondering who oh who will he choose.
Bucking protocol ( I think J shredded the Bachelor rules), J visits he girls during the day of the rose ceremony. He must speak with our Jillian. He must see if Jillian really wants him or just an adventure. He takes her to a coffee shop and doesn’t let her drink her latte. But did she pass the test???
THEEE most dramatic rose ceremony
Ok…this was dramatic. J took a bachelorette aside and out of the room. He needed to know Naomi was up for forever…oh yeah..she totally was. Like totally. Then the ceremony…and I lost it…OMG…sooo sad. He let Stephanie go!! But in the most respectful way. He sung (actually said) her praises. And I think he’s right..she is a beautiful person on the inside and outside (well okay once she ditches the cheek and eye glitter and the bedazzled furry clothes). It was so sad. Too bad there was no connection…b/c she is such a lovely person. But you know what I love most about Stephanie….she didn’t cry in the limo. She’s been through way tougher than this. Way to go Stephanie…you truly are a portrait of a lady. See you at Women Tell All..and you know..I don’t know if he’s man enough for you….
But guess who’s coming to Peace River AB????!!! And how fitting that J is coming to Wild Rose Country!! Welcome Jason…and we hope there is an Alberta Advantage. Yo J….hey could you tell Jesse and Fred from last season….that there are some FANTASTIC single women here????
Until next time…
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
