Bachelorette in Bermuda

I had a 24-hour flu or the like yesterday, so I half-slept through this episode. I don't think I missed much. They're in Bermuda, where it looks incredibly windy. First date is with Doug. Doug is easy to mess with and the scene before the date is like a "Messing with Sasquatch" commercial. The scary part is that Doug feels he "won" this confrontation and proceeds to tell Emily all about his manly ways. Ick.

Their date is uncomfortable. Emily believes that Doug is telling her what she wants to hear and he's "too perfect" aka Brad, so she wants his flaws. Like the perfect job interviewer, Doug says, "I think my ex-girlfriend would say I spend too much time with my son." Yeah, right. I'll bet she has more to say than that.

However, Emily gets the tables turned on her and gives her own downfalls (she will wear pajamas all day, including out in public and she doesn't work out.) Doug doesn't really acknowledge this, he just says, "So you're human." He also never really gives us his faults, and Emily falls for his lines. He needs to go.

Next up: Sailing Date where two teams compete for more time and fewer guys on the group date. They dress the guys like Ronald McDonald and we watch them go for the coveted prize, "A trophy almost wife"

Ryan puts his foot in his mouth by using his alone time to say he saw Emily kissing Arie., ie., you're a slut. No, he doesn't say this, but he definitely implies it and it wasn't pretty.

Emily has another kissing session with Arie, and tries for one with Jef, but he's too clueless to understand this. He gets the rose, so that he might get a clue, but we'll see. Someone on Twitter wondered how Jef got out of detention on the Breakfast Club to be on the show. LOL Emily sees something in him though, so maybe it will burst forth next week.

Two on one date is the most awkward ever. First, John & Nate & Emily go cliff diving. Then, they enter this beautiful cave that's completely silent. Most awkward moment ever. No one wants to eat because I think your chewing might echo. Anyway, Nate sings. Nate cries. Nate goes home.

Michael & Charlie go home.

I keep getting Beauty and the Beast songs stuck in my head this season. The one about Gaston. If you crossed Ryan with Kalon, isn't that who you would get? I'm really tired of Ryan. His use of faith to try to shame her is a bit much. His comments make for crazy reality tv, but he seems abusive with his manipulation. Blah.

[Rhianna]

Yes, Ryan seems like the type that would be an abusive husband and use scripture to justify it.

[Kristin Billerbeck]

True. He seems to have a disdain for women and a lack of general respect.

LOL anytime you ask someone their faults they are going to give pat answers. I had a class that I was forced to take on how to interview/job hunt and they spent hours about how to answer that question. Most boring class I ever had to take. At least with accounting I actually learned something.

With Ryan, like I said a couple weeks ago, I know one of his former coaches. He put on Facebook - is he going to have to watch because he knows someone? Evidently, he's not watching or he's not commenting so I don't know how much of it is editing. I so want to ask him on Facebook if it's accurate but can't figure out a way to say it that doesn't make me look way to involved in a tv show.

[Kristin Billerbeck]

Its hard to play the Facebook connection cool. But the show does show you that Christian is a random term for many.

I kept cringing every time he used Scripture references...
