In case you can't count, Chris Harrison informs us that there are 15 guys left. There are also two 1-1 dates and one group date...no, really? Math was really never my strong suit, but thanks Harrison. The first 1-1 date goes to Ben C.
The Dates
Date Category: 1-1Bachelor Involved: Ben C.
Location: Glendale, CA (Americana at Brand outdoor mall)
Highlights: Ashley can't believe that all the guys left want to date her. Well, everyone except Bentley that is. Ashley picks Ben C. up in a different sports than last week car with huge speakers. Ashley plans on putting Ben C. in a flash mob, but doesn't tell him. He thinks that she's just teaching him some sweet dance moves. I plan on using all of these moves at the wedding I'm going to next weekend. Ben C. is not thrilled when Ashley wants to do the dance they just learned in the middle of an outdoor mall...in front of people. Ben C. is totally a stereotypical white boy dancer. It's kind of adorable. Far East Movement shows up for an impromptu concert. I do like that Rockateer song. Ben C. and Ashley kiss per the chanting of the crowd. At the rooftop dinner, Ben C. lets us know that he's pretty much been planning his wedding since he was a wee lad. He talks very fast, but I get the gist that he's a hopeless romantic. He also texts using emoticons, but only if his friend tells him it's okay. Ashley says she would be crazy not to give him a rose. Yes, yes you would.
Status: Ben C. gets the rose
Date Category: GroupBachelors Involved: Ames, Ben F., Blake, Chris, Jeff andhis mask, Lucas, Nick, Ryan, William, Bentley
Location: Los Angeles, CA (The Comedy Store)
Highlights: The guys deem William the funniest guy in the house. However, Jeff thinks that he is the funniest because he goes to comedy clubs all the time. Roastmaster Geoffrey Ross is going to teach the guys how to roast and tells them that they will be roasting Ashley. William, who wants to be a stand-up comedian, thinks this is his chance to the big time. This is not going to end well. Lucas is up first. He mostly takes shots at the guys. Ames does have a pretty big forehead though. Ryan crashes and burns. Ames makes fun of Jeff and his mask, which is kind of funny. Blake does some Bachelor math or something. Jeff and everyone else makes fun of Ashley's chest, or lack thereof. William crosses the line a bit and makes a "joke" about signing up for Emily or Chantal. He thinks he's funny and I think he's henceforth off my favorites list. Ashley cries and Bentley uses that as an opportunity to mess with her emotions. At the after party, the guys discuss the debauchery of the day. William pulls Ashley aside to talk about his comments. He contemplates leaving and tells Ashley to go talk to someone else. He then leaves the date. Ashley tries to talk to the rest of the group but can't concentrate. William returns to the date after some soul-searching on Hollywood Boulevard. Ryan comforts Ashley by telling her that he wants her here and wants to spend more time with her. They make out and Ashley is cured! Ashley tells Bentley that she was warned about him before the show. He talks his way around it without actually admitting or denying anything. I want to shake and slap Ashley for falling for his BS.
Status: Ryan gets the rose
The Bentley Situation:As Ashley ponders what life would be like with Bentley and says that he is probably the one for her, she has no idea that he is packing to leave. Bentley arrives at Ashley's house to tell her that he is leaving. He tells Ashley that he misses his daughter too much which is why he needs to leave. Ashley falls apart and pretty much tells Bentley that he was probably going to be one of the final two guys. Ashley contemplates not continuing on with the show while surrounded by billowy purple comforters and pillows.
Status: Bentley eliminates himself
Date Category: 1-1Bachelor Involved: JP
Location: Ashley's bachelorette abode
Highlights: JP brings Ashley yellow and purple daisies. I love him already; daisies are my fave. Her eyes are a puffy mess from crying all day. They decide to put on pjs. Ashley apologizes for JP's date sucking, he says he's happy to be here. He says that he likes schlubbing on dates and just hanging out, which I find awesome because sweats and a t-shirt are my favorite outfit for not doing anything. A girl can't be dolled up every minute of th day! Ashley likes JP's kisses better than Bentley's. So there. And yeah, nothing else much happened on this date which is a shame because JP is kind of attractive. I would probably not mind more of him on my tv screen. But I digress...
Status: JP gets the rose
Bachelors with no date this week: Mickey, West, Constantine
Seen/Heard from the Mask:1. "I'm at a disadvantage because Ashley hasn't seen my face." Well no duh, you're the 35-year old man who thought it would be awesome to wear a mask.
2. Side note: I find it hilarious that creepy organ music is played everytime Jeff and his mask are in the shot.
3. "I think she will be pleasantly surprised." Or not..
4. Jeff takes off his mask. I kind of wish he was horrible-looking so that it would have been more dramatic. It was just kind of 'meh'. Ashley: "He's a lot older than I thought he was." BAHAHAHA
Pre-Rose Ceremony Party:
It's therapy chat time with Chris Harrison! Ashley tells Chris she thinks she was in love with Bentley. She sees that maybe now she should have listened to Michelle's warnings about Bentley. Chris tries to talk some sense into Ashley and tells her that if Bentley really wanted to be there, he would have moved Heaven and Earth to stay, which he didn't...and the fact that he wasn't attracted to Ashley. She cancels the cocktail party.
Rose Ceremony:
Rose-d: Ben C., Ryan, JP, Constantine, West, Mickey, Ben F. and his horrible bow-tie, Blake, Nick, Ames, Lucas, William
Sent Home: Bentley, Chris, Jeff and his mask
Episode 4 Preview:
Thailand! Ames kayaks with Ashley! They guys gang up on Ryan!
Note: Next week's blog will be up late; probably on Wednesday afternoon.
