The Bachelorette

Its time again for my Trash TV review of this weeks Bachelorette.

This week started with a competition for a one on one date with Deanna. The guys all had to write and perform a song for Deanna, about their feelings for her. Jesse came up the winner of the one on one date with Deanna.

For their date they had dinner in an amazing old theater, and were serenaded by Natasha Bettingfield. Jesse walked away from the date with a rose. For the group date, 6 of the guys got to go to the speedway and drive stock cars. The competition this time was to see who could go the fastest. Sean won with 141.11 mph and got one on one time with Deanna. Deanna blew all the guys out of the water going 141.56 mph. Go Girl! Graham on his one on one time, blew Dianna off when she was wanting a kiss from him. She told him how she was feeling, and he told her he didn’t want to be one of the crowd, and follow someone else in kissing her. She told him she hadn’t kissed anyone else and that the one on one time was about them, and no one else. In the end, Sean got the rose for this date.

The day of the two on one date, the guys invited Deanna and the guys from the house down to the ‘Out House’ for a BBQ. Robert was feeling like he couldn’t compete with the guys and went off by himself. A few of the other guys were hanging out together or ignoring Deanna completely, and it caused Deanna to chew the guys out for being selfish, and telling all the guys to stay at the Out House while she went up to the mansion.

On the Two on One date, Robert and Fred had dinner with Deanna at a beautiful mansion. Robert tried to give Deanna a kiss, when she wanted to talk about what had happened at the BBQ. He said that he felt communication was essential for a good relationship, and she told him he had not been communicating but running from the conflict.  She dodges the kiss that Robert tries to give her. In her one on one time with Fred, he played it more safely, and didn’t try to kiss her. He told her he enjoyed their one on one time, and that when he got to hug her he never wanted to let go. After the one on one time with both guys, Deanna tells Robert that she can not give him the rose, and sends him home. Fred is feeling better, until Deanna comes back and tells him that she doesn’t want to lead him on, and that he is one of the best guys at the house, but she doesn’t see forever with him, and that hes too good to be lead on like Brad lead her on. She sends him home as well.

Back at the house, the guys are all expecting Fred to come home after what had happened at the BBQ and are all shocked when both Robert’s and Fred’s bags are taken out. It hits home to all of the guys that Deanna is serious and won’t keep you around if she doesn’t feel the connection.

At home, Jason, who is now the only guy left at the house, asks Deanna if she wants to talk about what had happened. The talk about how hard it is, and that she didn’t think it would be this hard for her. After a long talk, they start to kiss.

At the rose ceremony, all the guys get some one on one time, and Graham seems to redeem himself by telling Deanna that it hurt him that he hurt her. He gives her a kiss which she doesn’t dodge.  After the one on one time with all the guys, she invites them to the pool. While they are all having fun, the rose ceremony is called. Jesse and Sean are safe, as they received roses earlier in the week. Our first rose of the night goes to Jason. Then Jeremy, Twilley and finally Graham. Brian is sent home.

He says that his downfall was that since he was never in the house with Deanna, that he bonded with the guys and acted like he was there to have fun, and not for the right reasons. He wishes he had done things differently and had taken more time with Deanna when he had the chance.

Today’s Quote

Sometimes the situation is only a problem because it is looked at in a certain way. Looked at in another way, the right course of action may be so obvious that the problem no longer exists.
