The Bachelorette...#3...Bring it on!

Love having my girls bachelorette watching party!  Love you girls!

Surprise...the guys head to Vancouver, BC, Jillian's hometown.  

Date #1: 1-on-1: Kiptyn
Ok, so they ran to meet each other and totally had an awkward peck kiss.  She does seems super excited to see him though.  They will be kayaking to an open market.  She wanted to race and did you hear her squeaking while rowing?  It was really sweet seeing them shop together, that is something a girl wants...someone to share the daily activities with.  

Sidenote: not a fan of Kiptyn's shoes.  

After shopping at the market they went "home", don't know if it was really her house, and made dinner.  I loved how Jillian was a control freak in the kitchen...totally like me.  You want help, but when someone starts helping in a different way than you want it...Yikes!  That is where the wine comes in!

Their conversation together was sweet.  I just am not sure if I am sold on Kiptyn anymore.  I think he seems a little nerdy, corky, I don't know.  What do you think?  Of course, the talking was followed by kissing.  Seemed a little awkward, like he wanted to jump down her throat and she wanted to look cute!  All the ladies on my couch agree that their kissing is just weird, but that she really likes him.  

And the rose goes to...drum roll please...Kiptyn.  

Group Date: Tanner, Jake, Robby, Wes, Ed, Michael, Reid, Juan, David
This date starts at a curling place.  Hello, Michael, the break dancer, was so funny.  The evening progresses where the guys get into 2 teams to compete in the curling.  The losing team will head back to the hotel room, the winning team gets the date.    I totally want Michael's team to win because he is just so sweet...lots of hugging sweet words.  The girls think he is just a friend.  

Douche Bag quote of the night: "Curling is about flexibility, balance and touch, and I've got all of them."...Juan

Winning team: Robby, David, Jesse, Jake, Juan, goes on a historic boat for dinner.  Did Jillian really wear Michael Jackson gloves on the boat, and please, Jesse, loose the hat!

Jake and Jillian had the first one on one conversation.  We think that he looks like a blond Tom Cruise, but way cuter.  He really is the sweet, nice guy.  Seriously, are we supposed to feel bad for Jake while he is complaining about being too perfect?  

Next, Jillian has one on one time with Jesse, on a bed.  They had another awkward kiss.  Was he holding his breathe?  All these kisses are just weird.  

Oh man, now David has time with Jillian.  She is looking a little toasted.  He is currently talking about her "a$$"...AWKWARD!!  This is totally a train wreck, he is talking about her tata hanging out.  Oh man, he went in for a kiss and she gave him the cheek.  He did not like that and let her know.  Thank goodness Jillian sees his disrespectfulness.  He is going home!

Douche Bag quote #2: "Why the hell wouldn't you kiss me after you hear the word $%^#"...David

After the totally awkward conversation, where Jillian seems totally frazzled from her chat with David, she brings out the rose.  The rose goes to......Jesse.

Date #3: 2-on-1: Mike and Mark
Nice, this date scene shows the guys getting ready, could have lived my life without seeing Mark in his boxers... ewe no butt.  When the guys see Jillian, Mike runs to greet her and Mark stays back like a stray little puppy.  They get to go on helicopter ride...get ready, I have a lot to say about this little trip.  First, Mark didn't let Jillian in the helicopter and neither did Mike.  Jillian sat on one side, which meant only Mike was the only one getting to sit next to Jillian.  Then, Jillian was holding Mike's thumb, not his hand, his thumb.  Seriously, Mark is so stoned, like eternally stoned.  He is going home.  

I am really not into listening to their one on one conversation.  I am just sick of hearing the guys try to "win" and tell her all the things she wants to hear.  It just seems fake and annoying.  

The rose goes too...Mark.  Stace totally called that one because Mark was talking about how he got his heart broken and Jillian totally falls for that!

Rose Ceremony:  Loved Jillian's dress!  Ok, Wes is creepy.  Jillian seems to really like him, but I am pretty sure he is going to be the one that has the girlfriend.  Jakes alone time with him was sweet, but a little weird.  I am glad that he talked to her about her comment regarding him being himself.  

Tanner is having one on one time with Jillian...ahhhhhh...he is the one that will tell him who is a dirt bag!  Name names Tanner!  This conversation really messed Jillian's mood up.  She told the guys that the cocktail party is over and that the rose ceremony is about to begin.  

Chris and Jillian are chatting:  Jillian's heart is broken about the douche bags in the house.  If the guys really do have girlfriends, then ABC needs to take some money out of Jillian's bikini budget and do some background checks on the guys and investigate them a little further. 

Jillian confronts the guys.  The guys look like high school students who cheated on a test.  Holy Moly guys!  Just say who has a girlfriend.  Oh, Tanner just got really mad.  We think David has the girlfriend.  He seems to be backpedaling a lot!  Tanner is so mad that Juan is looking at him.  This whole scene is just weird!  

The roses go too...
Kiptyn, Jesse and Mark already have roses
Reid
Robby
Ed
Michael
Wes
Jake
Tanner...WHAT??  At least he didn't have the foot thing going this episode!

David and Juan are going home...thank goodness!  Poor, poor clueless little David.  He just needs to watch the show and see how he comes off to other people.  

Ok, our Bachelor look-a-likes:
Ed: Denny Duquet (gray's anatomy)
Mark: Ray from 90210...you remember, Donna's boyfriend
Jake: Blond Tom Cruise
Wes: Collin, the cocaine addicted painter from 90210...Kelly's old bf!
Michael: buzzed-head kid from A Few Good Men...anyone know the name?

Love your recap... I watched the whole thing too. Here are my thoughts. I think she kept Tanner for one reason... to get more inside info out of him. AND he will tell her what she wants to know, thinking it will make her "like" him more. I believe it was a smart move on her part. She has to be smart right now and if there's any shady business going on in the house, she needs a "mole". Tanner is it. And it was a safe thing to do, because Juan and David needed to go anyway, so no harm done.

I do think that she should have kept Mike instead of Mark. He may not make it to the end, but I don't trust Mark. Everyone's been unlucky in love... that's why they are on the show... to "find true love". I just don't think he's the right fit for her personality. Not that I think Mike was either, but I liked Mike better than Mark overall.

And Wes... he needs to go. I think he's using "music" too much to schmooze her. And she's falling for the "romantic" scenes, but he's not really opening up. He wants screen time... he needs to go.

I agree with Kasey! Wes = creep! I hope he goes home next week. Linsey, you should also mention that Jesse looks like Alex on Grey's Anatomy! I'm not rooting for Tanner to stay much longer but I was glad she kept him since he was the only one "man" enough to let Jillian in on the girlfriend at home info.

Can't wait for next week!
