The 18 Survivors

This weeks Drama Queen award goes to Blakeley!

AND THE SHOW BEGINS with Ben relocating the women to Sonoma so he can share memories with the women in his hometown...Doing incredible things

Date #1 (individual date): Kacie B.
Kacie B. gets the first individual date, and the jealousy starts with a flash to Courtney stating that she doesn't want to see her come home. Ben takes Kacie on a date in the town of Sonoma to show her what the town is all about. They begin the date with a stroll downtown, passing by City Hall. They move on to performing a duet on a piano, a visit to a candy shop, and they made their own parade in the middle of town! Kacie stole a baton from the candy store (still can't figure out why the candy store had a baton) and showed off her majorette skills to Ben. They had dinner in a cute restaurant downtown where Ben hands out Rose #1. The last stop of the night is the Sebastian Theater where they watched home video's from their childhood. Something very similar to what you would see at a wedding rehearsal dinner. I've got my fingers crossed the video ends up getting recycled! :)

Date #2 (12 girl date) Brittney, Rachel, Jennifer, Emily, Blakeley, Shawn, Nicki, Jaclyn, Samantha, Jamie, Jenna, Monica - Come play with me:
Ben hired child play-writes and required the girls to audition for parts prior to acting out a play. Kids were the judges for the auditions. Blakeley stole the show in her romper outfit. I'm not sure what possessed the children to ask her to jog in slow motion as a part of her audition...it's not like she was trying out for Baywatch! After the auditions the ladies premiered in 'Prince Pinot of Bachelorville'. Performed for some town folk and Ben's friends and family. Just when you think things aren't going to get any crazier the dragon (i.e. Monica - very fitting) blows off Ben, the sheep's fur coat. Again...not sure how that fit into the storyline! Kids these days, where do they get this?
In true Bachelor fashion they ended the night in a hot tub. Blakeley started the drama by obsessing over the rose and pissed Samantha off so much she ran crying to the bathroom. Blakeley received Rose #2 because she "owned the day and night" Ben said. I think it had to be the romper and Baywatch audition that sealed the deal!

Date #3 (individual date) Courtney - Let's spin the bottle...Ben:
Lindzi read the date card "Courtney, Let's spin the bottle...Ben." Courtney then showed her true colors by making one of the rudest comments in Bachelor history. Directed towards Lindzi, Courtney said "How did that taste coming out of your mouth?" I cannot believe she said that!
The date began with Ben taking "one of the most beautiful women" he has even seen to the redwood forest with his dog Scotch. (Roxy does not like Scotch! She was growling the whole time Scotch was on the date) After Scotch had a nice jog in the forest they had a picnic lunch by a creek. I had a really hard time focusing on the date as Courtney's lower lip was driving me nuts! Either she had Botox on her chin or she has mangled bottom teeth. Whatever the cause all I could focus on was that she wouldn't move her lower lip. After the picnic they rode on a tractor to a candle light dinner in the middle of nowhere. Again with the lower lip...had a hard time focusing. I did notice she likes to say "winning" which is also quite irritating. Rose #3 handed out! Shortly after giving the rose he makes a comment "Thought I would be more reserved and careful - that just went out the window." As Oprah would say that was a whisper.


Cocktail Party:
Ben pulls Lindzi aside to explain that she didn't get a date because she made such a good first impression. (Note for future Bachelorette's: Riding in on a horse ensures that you stick around for a couple of weeks.) The best part about Ben's conversation with Lindzi is when she explains that she is "country" and drives an F350. She's got a little Bellevue country. :) lol
Although Blakeley has a rose she creates drama by continuing to steal Ben away from rose-less bachelorettes. Jenna makes a fool of herself once again by telling Ben she "feels like she acts like a guy so this drama is abnormal. I'm not like a girl, if that makes any sense." Really?
Monica described Blakeley as someone you can motorboat. Blakeley runs off to cry in a corner surrounded by suitcases. Ben finds her in the corner and uses Chris Harrison's words "take a moment, collect yourself, I understand, I get this...see you in a few...take your time."
Ben goes from finding Blakeley in the luggage room to Jenna in a bed crying.
