So let’s just skip to the dates. Strawberry Shortcake with Kiptyn and the runaway zit on his temple. Sorry. I couldn’t help but not constantly look at that thing while they were together. Once again, Shortcake reminds all of America that her and Kiptyn have this great friendship that will finally go to the next level with this date. And reiterates this was their first kiss. Sorry. Don’t believe it. These two spent plenty of time together before the show, with her heading down to San Diego numerous times to see him. If you expect me to believe these two never kissed, nor played up this angle from the minute they knew they were both cast, then you must consider me a fool. I think these two knew exactly what they were doing heading into this game, and it’s worked perfectly for them. Not that they’ve done anything wrong, which they haven’t, I just think they knew they had a good storyline going in and figured they’d play it up. But I don’t buy for a second they never kissed before Catalina. And neither should you.
I wonder if more of Tenley’s ex-husband’s loser friends are gonna come out of the woodwork bashing her again after last night’s episode. They had no problem running to the tabloids during Jake’s season, why should it be any different now? I think it’s funny that the show is telling all the contestants they’re not supposed to have any contact with each other while the show is airing, and they’re not supposed to talk about the show on Twitter or Facebook, yet there’s Strawberry every week on the E! channel talking about the show, or her and Kiptyn attending a charity event in San Diego with Ali and Roberto, or Natalie, Dave, Elizabeth, and Jesse all hanging in Vegas this past weekend for shorty’s wedding. It’s like all the “stars” of this season are given the Brett Favre treatment – the rules don’t apply to them. I’m sure the others on the show don’t resent that at all.
As for Jesse and Peyton’s date, can someone explain to me how she thought riding in biplanes reminded her of Pearl Harbor? These two are both cuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnntry. Apparently that’s where the attraction started. Yet once Mr. Belcher and Nose Picker comes out, Peyton’s legs start closing immediately. I’m sure Jesse’s behavior had a lot to do with the fact he was mixing vodka and champagne and chugging it like it was bottled water, but nonetheless, that doesn’t excuse him for acting like a complete dbag. Funny to watch, however Peyton certainly didn’t seem amused by it. When you’ve already stayed overnight with a girl, then have a chance again and she says no, don’t think it had to do with strategic purposes. It’s because you disgusted her. Hence the reason those two aren’t a couple right now. Not the only reason, but probably one of the big ones.
As I mentioned earlier, if I never had spoilers, this show still would’ve been quite predictable in terms of who was going. How in the world did Elizabeth think she was going home? There’s 5 guys: Wes and Jesse Beck were voting one way, and Kiptyn, Dave, and Kovacs were voting together. That’s 3 to 2. And you know that the threesome isn’t voting out any of the Insider girls. That couldn’t have been more obvious Elizabeth wasn’t going anywhere. It’s whoever the three Insider guys wanted to go that was gonna go. Plain and simple. As for which guy was leaving, even though Wes was dead on with his analysis of the show, the minute he publicly talked about it was the minute he was targeted. And that’s why he went home. No surprise there either. Loved the fact that Krisily called everyone out on her elimination. Dave lied to her face and told her she was safe when he knew she could be in trouble. Good for her.
By the way, this show has spawned two new catch phrases. We know the “Bachelor/ette” franchise has constantly bombarded us with the “not here for the right reasons” line and all of Chris Harrison’s repetitive nonsense he says every season. Well now it’s been freshened up a bit by the “Bachelor Pad”. “Here for the right reasons” has definitely been replaced with “on the chopping block” and “target on my back”. How many times were those phrases uttered last night? I lost count at 857. Hopefully it wasn’t more.
As for next week, we know the three “outsider” females get eliminated early in the show, leaving them with 8 remaining people (4 couples). Well, next week is the 2nd to last episode. The finale is on Sept. 13th. And they left filming with the final four people that I mentioned in the spoilers. So either 7 people are going home next week (the 3 outsider girls and two couples), or they’ll carry it over in to the beginning of the finale. Not sure. All I know is that next week everyone is going back to film the finale, I believe Tues or Wednesday, and then the finale airs the following Monday on the 13th. I’m suspecting I’ll have info either late Wed night or Thurs morning of next week. I just don’t know how they’re doing the eliminations on next week’s episode. I think we’re gonna see 7 people going home if I had to put my money on it, but still not 100% sure. Should be interesting though.

MJA – just turn off your sound. That will solve your problem!
Thanks, Caroll — I did turn off the sound.
Wes………..played the game right, his outsider team mates were too dense to understand…Krissly wanted a piece of Dave and voted with her nether regions.
Nikki….was loyal to Skippy thinking she might have a chance in getting herself some beef.
Jesse Sulidis….another one who wanted a piece of Varicose Roider Dave.
Craig M. and Wes had it down path, but the hormonal females couldn’t see past their bikini line, and too thick to understand that the insiders were not their buds….
Wes was smarter than all of his team mates combined but had no one on his team thinking outside the box.
Steve-your blog is totally awesome! Regarding the Jennifer Grey face lift, In the early 1990s, Grey underwent a rhinoplasty procedure that was so botched she required a second plastic surgery to repair the damage. The result was a face so changed that even close friends failed to recognize her, and the major change in her appearance negatively affected her career. Of the experience she said, “I went in the operating room a celebrity – and came out anonymous. It was like being in a witness protection program or being invisible.
Keep up the awesome work!
I know that there was no biplanes of the First World War was referring to all open air; look flat. As you can tell, I am definitely not an expert in aviation. I just wanted to clarify before some smart posters Alek
I think it is obvious that the producers manipulate the show as they handle as shown bachelor ette /. They are encouraged that this is a couple shows, even if the end is supposed to be only one winner.
