-Becca informs us that she’s never been to the Bahamas and neither have any of her remaining six guys. Yeah, but us the viewers have, and recently I might add. After 8 girls from Ben’s season have now appeared on the podcast (9 if you include the time LB came on during the Jen Saviano interview), it’s been talked about numerous times about their trip to the Bahamas in episode 6 that season. Caila’s second 1-on-1, the 6 girl group date swimming with the pigs, then the infamous 2-on-1 with twin Emily and Olivia where Olivia got left on the island. Vegas and Bahamas from Ben’s season was repeated this season. And I guess in place of Indiana, they did Virginia. So yeah, all the people bitching about the travel this season, you do realize Ben’s non-U.S. travel before hometowns was Mexico and the Bahamas. Becca’s was just Bahamas. So lets not all whine at once about how she got stuck with the worst travel season ever. Nick’s non-U.S. travel before hometowns was just St. Thomas and Bimini. And Chris Soules had ZERO non-U.S. travel before hometowns. It’s a season-by-season deal. Whoever ponies up the cake to bring the show to their city/country, that’s where they go.

-Chris Harrison talks to Becca. She’s excited. She feels like she will be engaged by the end of this thing and we all can’t wait because maybe finally the Arie talk will cease. Maybe. As for the guys, having their pre-date-card-chat-set-up-by-producers, Colton talks about how family is #1 thing in his life and taking Becca home to meet them will be a huge deal. Others guys are saying the same thing and Wills is wearing a romphim, his second one of the season. This time it’s leopard print and I really don’t know what to say. Dude is certainly creating his own style this season for sure. I was just waiting for any moment where he rocked a fanny pack while sporting sandals with socks on. That pretty much would’ve taken the cake.

-Becca joins the guys and does Chris Harrison’s job for him. So he took a later flight into the Bahamas, which I remember because people were telling me they saw him at the airport days after filming in Bahamas had begun. She tells them there will be no rose ceremony this week. Three 1-on-1 dates and a 3-on-1 group date, where roses will be given out on every date. This seems to be their new thing in the episode before hometowns. We’ve seen this a few times now. But lets be clear about something. I tweeted this last night, and even mentioned it in the episode-by-episode spoilers. The 3-on-1 date with Jason, Wills, and Leo was filmed on Sunday, April 15th. Jason had the first hometown on Wednesday, April 18th in Buffalo, NY. Everything was already rented out, venues were booked, and family was ready to go. Producers already knew who she was giving her rose to on that group date before it happened. Sure, they might’ve told Wills and Leo’s family to be ready for a possible date, but they say that to all families of the contestants in the final 6. Plans were already made for the four that got them this season. Wills and Leo had zero chance before that date started and had no idea. Oh well. That’s reality TV for you.

-One of the things the guys made sure to talk about once Colton got his 1-on-1 was the fact that he was hiding a “secret,” and that secret was that he’s a virgin. Leo had a real strong take on it, because Leo’s a pro at having sex with women while wearing a sock and having no penetration shown at 2am on Cinemax. Leo thinks Colton is going to tell her and that might not go so well for him. Garrett feels the same way. In fact, Garrett went as far as to say that if Colton tells Becca he’s a virgin, Becca won’t give him a rose because sex is an important part of a relationship. While what he said isn’t wrong at all, wasn’t a good look for him since she obviously still gave him a rose. Do we think it played a role in Colton not lasting past next week? I’m sure some do. There’s probably a majority that feels you need to test drive the car before buying it. But only Becca knows why and I’m guessing it has more to do with the fact their relationship wasn’t as solid as her other three. Hell, even after Colton got the first date card, none of the guys could believe he got it, and even said Colton didn’t think he’d get it. So it seems to me those there didn’t feel it much between Becca and Colton either and that relationship came across as pure lust.
