Who let the dog out?

Week two and Rachel is hopeful..she wakes up in her mansion..and Copper is by her side. She  takes the adorable Copper for a walk..in  her open toe heeled boots. She didn't look super steady walking him...maybe her and Copper will have matching leg braces if she keeps walking him in heels.

First group date!! and Rachel is looking for husband material. She gets a little help from Ashton and Mila..who are huge fans to show...which goes to show that  really cool people are dedicated to this program. :)

First the boys (hopefully they will transfrom from boyz II men)  are greeted by Rachel in a park where she  food stylists set up a barbecue. You can tell it was done by professionals (when  you compare it to Alex skewering chicken with mom in the backyard.
They have a wee bit of food..then they are off to the obstacle course. You know..i did agree with the obstacle course. It wasn't about a metaphor of scaling a building and emerging triumphant in love, but it highlighted the mundanity of marriage..this might have been one of the most realistic challenges in bachelor history.

Whaboom wins. He's an odd dude. He tried to get Ashton to whaboom- Ashton chose not to without making Lucas feel like a ding dong. I like how Ashton kept that classy.
What wasn't classy was all the baby (doll) slamming. Too much testosterone..or pre-workout.

At the group date drinks gathering...we learned:
-Iggy sweats profusefuly and talks to Rachel like he's interviewing her for employment
-Blake lived with Lucas' ex-girlfriend, and proceeds to tell everyone that Lucas ex-gf says Lucas is in it for Whaboom glory (and people say women like to gossip)
-Lucas says Blake is crazy but Lucas' gf is the one being evicted (yeesh..sounds like a Judge Judy episode)
-Kenny ain't got time for nuthin' but love and keepin' it 100. and he loves his daughter (sweet)
-Dean is looking more like Chris Soules..and suddenly is very charming and sweet.

Dean gets the rose!! And another first in Bachelorette history..he walks her out and kisses her...AND he gets all the purple lipstick on his face.

1:1 I'm looking for my best friend

Oh yay yay yay!!!! Peter is going on the  one on one date:)
Peter is so adorable. Copper is going too!!
They all fly to Palm Springs..and he's already holding her hand...and we all know one of Rachel's love language is physical touch. They all go to a backyard barkfest with fellow dogs and dog owners. Peter seems to be connecting with Copper..and there is even a dance at the end when Peter is holding up Copper to dance. We still haven't heard how Copper broke his leg.

At the dinner, they have so much in common:
-neither is eating (I'm not even sure Copper is eating)
-they love their tooth gap
-they've both been to therapists.

She gives Peter the rose..but she has one more surprise....fireworks:) Ironically, after this 1:1 date with her dog Rachel says she's a 'smitten kitten'.

Swish
I've only been to 3 NBA games, and I wasn't sure what Swish was. But it meant that they are going to be playing some basketball. With Kareem Abdul Jabbar.  Kareem says that basketball shows character and it involves teamwork. The boys played some ball then were divided on teams and were playing in front of a crowd. Chris, Rachel and Kareem were judging. I don't know if they were playing in halves or quarters...but it seemed like halves.

I was happy that Matt scored..two points..not sure how much he's scoring in Rachel's eyes. Demario..worked hard and kept scoring..but the white team won. The guys went to the locker room to  umm..do nothing..they sat around and didn't change or shower. meanwhile someone name Lexie shows up..Rachel is thinking this is a bachelorette fangirl..but gurrrrrrl Lexie had some news about Demario. Looks like Demario was scoring with Lexie right up until a few days until After the Rose. then Demario ghosted Lexie. Now Lexie seemed mighty angry (and she let her hair out of her scrunchie-but her kept her scrunchie around her wrist...are those a thing again?). Rachel was confused and shocked..then called in Demario to face her. While the guys sat in the change room not changing, they were thinking Demario was getting a rose..which goes to show that you really should never believe all your thoughts:)

Demario first pretended he didn't know Lexie, then said she's crazy, then said they had 'sexual intercourse', then he said a lot that didn't make sense so rachel read off phone messages. This exchange was taking on Maury Povich vibes..i was thinking someone was going to come in with a poly graph..but Rachel sent Demario home..I'm not sure where Lexie went..and Rachel went marching around the school not wanting to talk to the camera..saying she got played. Well, even though she was keepin' it 100...Demario was keepin' it about 50. He just seems to have skin in a lot of different games:)

The men tried to cheer Rachel up after she proclaimed that Demario is a dirty dog.  Josiah says he's protective..and sealed that protection package with a  kiss. (He comes off as needy to me). Jamey sat so far away from her on the couch. Will was adorable.  Eric talked love languages and basically Rachel asked for a kiss. Alex sang a Russian song about dark eyes. Does Alex have an accent or did it just appear after he sang a couple bars of the dark eyes song?  He didn't kiss her..b/c his mama told him not to.Poor Mark didn't even talk to her.
Josiah gets the protection  group date rose!

Cocktail party
She looked great in black and gold. Did she limp in? maybe she was out walking Copper in heels again. Bryan was the first to take her..they kiss..he gives her a massage. Adam was showing a cute little barbie house..then he gets interrupted...because guess who is on the grounds?? Demario...

Looks like Demario wants a rebound.  Rachel is asked by Chris if she wants to talk to him..she's curious..the guys are angry...Kenny..says he wants to break his leg... Really think Kenny is still made that Whaboom pushed him at the obstacle course.

Will the men take Demario down? Will Rachel hear him out?
Does Lexie get her keys back?

Until next week...I LOVE THIS SHOW???
