The Nearly-Wed Game
How meta is this? There is a game show within a reality show. Good thing Chris Harrison was born meta. He's a suave heartthrob playing a suave heartthrob reality show host.
The Nearly-Wed game was just like the classic Newlywed game, with Harrison playing the role of Evolved Bob Eubanks.
Some of the highlights:
- Erica said, "I'm kind of a slut."
- Kasey thought Vienna's exes miss her "teeth."
- Blake said he would kiss Holly if he had his choice (Cue sound of Fleiss & Co. cheering in background)
- Holly following it up by saying that she'd want to sleep with Blake (Cue sound of Fleiss & Co. screaming with joy)
- Everyone agreeing that Blake is the most hated in the house
- Kasey admitting he lost his virginity at 21. No comment.
- Graham and Michelle gaming the system, and then Michelle forgetting their strategy and almost blowing it.
Graham and CEMII Date
They left on a date in a helicopter. That's about all you need to know.
Back at the house, Kasey and Vienna were having a fight, as usual. Ella explained that it's a result of "sexual tension." I have to question whether Ella understands what she just said.
I wrote those last two sentences, and then Kasey and Vienna started arguing about how Vienna is withholding sex from Kasey while in the house. Looks like Ella does understand the definition of sexual tension. I stand corrected.
Speaking of definitions, Kasey and Vienna had a fight about the meaning of an ultimatum. Vienna knew what an ultimatum was; Kasey did not. I'm surprised either of them knew the definition.
Blake and Erica Date
Blake started off his date with Erica in a limo....BORING. Get a helicopter, jet, ATV, rocket, horse, or Lamborghini.
Erica is a laugh-a-minute. She said Blake looks so good tonight that it's "historical." Totally hot like Abe Lincoln.
Erica said she can talk to ghosts. Maybe that's why she thinks Lincoln is hot.
Erica's astrologer said she would be in the top two. And he's been right about everything so far. So she's got that going for her.
On the date, Erica and Blake got two roses to save a couple, but unfortunately, they couldn't save themselves.
In one of the most awkward interactions to date, Erica did everything she could to try and get Blake to spend the night with her. She said she "wanted to get sex on his mind." She offered to wear sexy lingerie. She said they needed to bond to be a stronger pair. She said they just needed to relax overnight. Erica promised "no strings attached" sex. Blake looked like he was being offered a night with this girl...
.
Blake rejected Erica. She then told him that he's an idiot and they will go home because of it. In the most obvious statement of the night, Blake said, "I can't win." With Melissa and Erica, you definitely cannot win.
Blake and Erica tried to give their safety roses to Kirk and Ella in order to try and sway votes towards someone else. After not sealing the deal, Kasey and Vienna swooped in and convinced Blake and Erica to give the safety roses to them. Blake's judgment continues to be questionable. Very questionable. I wouldn't expect that from a guy that brushes for a full minute every morning and night.
Rose Ceremony
Ella whined for a long time about how she needs the money the most. She said that she's there "not just for myself, but also for my nine-year-old son." Really? How are you in LA at the Bachelor Pad mansion for your son? I guess if you can go to LA for 3 months with a 1 in 20 shot at 250k, you gotta take that.
Shortly before the rose ceremony, Blake threw all caution to the wind and made out with Holly openly on the Bachelor Pad pool furniture.
Pre-ceremony roses already went to Graham/CEMII and Kasey/Vienna.
Final roses went to Holly/Michael and Ella/Kirk.
Blake's final bad decision cost him the most: trusting Kasey and Vienna. Now that's an ultimatum.
Until next week, the season finale. What!? Huh!? Already!?

It's as "Meta" as our friend and WWT loyal reader Ron Artest. Dugan was late catching up on the episode and the Dolphins MNF opener may hurt Dugan's chances of catching the finale live, or nearly live with DVR.
ReplyDeleteErica is lights out crazy and her calling out Michelle for being bat shit crazy is hilarious. Besides the uncomfortable humor with that dinner, Blake brought up something interesting. How much more uncomfortable would it have been if the roles were reversed and there was a male acting as aggressive and persistent as Erica? Beyond awkward, nearing criminal? I'll defer.
In other news, did you catch that Winemaker Ben is the new Bachelor? We all know that the women make the season and I look forward to it, as always.
Blake has terrible judgement and luck. Erica is not attractive and their date made me uncomfortable. Blake and Holly are now engaged. That to me says Holly has bad judgement but you knew that when she thought the date with Bret michaels gave insight to their relationship. I hope winemaker Ben can be entertaining.( haven't we already had a winemaker bachelor? Firestone? ). I for one would have loved Kirk as the bachelor. He has been great this season.
