Ben hands out the first date card. It goes to Kacie B. Courtney thinks that Kacie is annoying and hopes that she gets sent home. Well Courtney, I think your eyebrows are annoying, so there.
Date: 1-1Bachelorette: Kacie B.
Location: Sonoma, CA (Downtown Sonoma)
Highlights: Ben picks Kacie up in a huge, red jeep. He wants to show Kacie what Sonoma is all about by taking her on a lil stroll through town. I'm trying to figure out why Kacie has on brown boots with an all black outfit. Or is it navy? If it's navy, the boots are ok. I know it's ok to mix black and brown, but I'm personally not a fan of it. As they look around in various stores, Kacie gets a baton and lets Ben know that she used to twirl a mean baton. She then shows Ben some moves.
Ben, "I don't think a lot of guys would walk down the street and twirl a baton with a woman."
Me, "Uh, nope. But twirl on Benny boy. You twirl that baton." He does and I worry when he catches onto it pretty quickly.
Next up is dinner where Kacie and Ben exhibit an easy, natural chemistry. Ben decides to give Kacie the date rose. Ben then takes her to a movie theatre where home movies of each play. Kacie had some curly hair as a little girl. Ben looks just like his dad. It was all kinds of sad watching Ben watch videos of his dad.
Status: Rose
Date: GroupBachelorettes: Brittany, Rachel, Jennifer, Blakely, Emily, Jenna, Shawn, Monica, Samantha, Jamie, Nicki, Jaclyn
Location: Sonoma, CA (Sonoma Square & Community Theatre)
Highlights: Blakely and her boobs think that she is getting the date rose. Ben informs that ladies that they will be performing in a play written by none other than 7-year-old "playwrights." I hope Blakely is re-thinking her outfit choice. The kids ask each woman to act out certain characters. Then the kids start asking for sexy dances. What? These kids are pretty much still in elementary school! They shouldn't even know what the word sexy means! Of course they ask Blakely to slow jog. And of course the pre-pubescent boy would like it. But seriously, his straight-faced "I liked it" was hilarious. Ben hands out costumes to the ladies. They all look like a character straight out of Shrek. They will all be performing in front of a full audience, which includes some of Ben's friends. Oh my goodness...Prince Pinot? After the play, Ben and the ladies have an after party. Emily and Rachel get the kiss they missed out on during the play. Blakely still thinks she's going to get the date rose. Samantha get mad, calls Blakely a cougar, and retreats to the bathroom of solice. I didn't even notice that Ben and Jennifer's kisses were echoing until Ben pointed it out. Now it's all I can hear. Blakely, who is Scorpio, still thinks she's getting the date rose. Well I'll be damned, she did get the date rose. All the other girls are not too happy about it either.
Status: Blakely gets the date rose.
Back at the house...Courtney talks about her dislike of Lindzi. You know what I dislike? How much Courtney dislikes everyone but herself. Another date card arrives. Courtney wants the date because she's competitive and always wins. The last 1-1 date goes to Courtney, shocking. Courtney asks Kacie how telling her she got the last date tasted coming out of her mouth. She also announces that she and Ben will probably make out while cackling annoyingly. She does realize people will see this stuff right? Something tells me that Courtney isn't going to have very many fans rooting for her. Just a hunch...
Date: 1-1Bachelorette: Courtney
Location: Sonoma, CA (Redwood forest & Vineyard)
Highlights: Ben picks up Courtney in the same red jeep. He has decided to bring his fur-kid, Scotch, along for the date. He wants to see if the connection he has with Courtney is more than skin-deep. Ben takes Courtney to a Redwood forest for a picnic. Ben gets Scotch to howl. OMG, cutest thing ever. As Courtney is talking, Scotch starts whining because he's cold. Ben covers him up with a towel. Like I said, cutest thing ever. Ben takes Courtney to dinner in a vineyard, under a tree. I want to have dinner in a vineyard under a tree! I'm adding that to my bucket list. Ben wants to know about Courtney's dating history. FYI, she use to date Jesse Metcalf, of Desperate Housewives and Passions fame. She says that she has trust issues. Ben wants Courtney to trust him, so he gives her the date rose. Then she tells that camera that all the other girls better watch out, while again cackling annoyingly and rubbing the rose all over her face. Oye.
Status: Rose
No date this week: Lindzi, Casey S., Elyse, Erika
Pre-Rose Ceremony Party
Ben pulls Lindzi aside first. He lets her know that she didn't get a date because of the strong impression she made on the first night. Side note, I really like her dress.
Erika asks Blakely how it felt to get the group date rose when there were so many girls there. Blakely then interrupts Samantha's time with Ben, which we all no is a Bachelor no-no. When you already have a rose from a date, you don't take time away from other people. And then she tries to steal Ben away for a second time. The nerve!
Jenna gets her time with Ben, by first putting a blanket on top of a candle. Good going. She then rambles about something that makes no sense before being interrupted by Jaclyn. Thus begins Jenna's downward spiral. She then crawls into a bed while in the midst of tears.
The rest of the girls continue to talk about Blakely. Blakely catches wind of it and goes and cries in the luggage corner.
Ben isn't stupid and knows that something is up.
Rose Ceremony
Rose-d: Kacie B., Blakely, Courtney, Jennifer, Emily, Elyse, Jaclyn, Erika, Rachel, Lindzi, Nicki, Casey S., Samantha, Monica, Jamie, Brittany
Sent Home: Jenna, Shawn
Jenna Has a Meltdown.

Next week...
It's onto San Francisco. Brittany removes herself from the competition? A mystery woman makes an appearance that annoys all the women. Erika faints at the Rose Ceremony!
