Well, you know things are going to be strange on an episode of The Bachelor when they invite John Lovitz on. In addition to that, the line of the season should be "you don't have to wait for a rose ceremony to leave".
This week on The Bachelor, there were two one-on-one dates and a group date.
Vienna was chosen to go on the first one-on-one date. After jumping off a bridge with someone tied to you, I doubted that Jake would send her packing right away. Unless the person he was tied to really repulsed him, I doubt he would send her home right after something like that. Fortunately for Vienna (not so sure if it was fortunate for Jake), he decided to give her a rose and secure her a spot for at least another week. However, the other ladies were very disappointed that Vienna got to stick around for another rose week. If I didn't know better, I would say that if you asked Vienna who any of her role models are, she'd probably mention (ack) Paris Hilton -- young, self-absorbed, and so very OMG drama-queenish. In a word: annoying.
For the group date, they all went to Universal Studios to see John Lovitz and have the assignment to do a quick stand-up bit. No pressure there.
Poor Ashleigh suddenly got a panic attack with the prospect of doing stand-up in front of not just the immediate group of people, but a crowd of strangers. When she finally managed to shake off the nerves, she actually did quite well. I don't know what it is about her, but she's on my list for people I hope Jake keeps around.
However, what's a group date without drama? Oh yes. Stalker Michelle took the cake. Even John Lovitz didn't know what to say after Michelle did her stand-up bit. That's not the drama part though. Oh no. All evening, during the confessional interviews, she kept going on and on about how amazing it was going to be when she finally kissed him. How it was going to be a clothes-ripping-off, wild and hot kiss. Uhhh ... not so much. Even before the kiss started there was a problem. The problem arose when Michelle asked Jake if it would be awkward for him to kiss her. Yah, bringing up the word "awkward" -- that just does not invoke passion so much as the urge to squirm and maybe get the hell out of there as fast as possible. Well, she finally kissed him and talk about a dead moment. Zero fireworks. Even crickets were afraid to make their cricket sound. When Jake finally took his face away, I had to laugh in awe when Michelle responded to Jake with, "Is that all?" Wow! Yah, crazy and funny. OK, so it was a lame kiss just to appease her, but I think he sensed her stalking levels rising, and not to mention the whole awkward thing. Within a few minutes after the death kiss, Jake asked her to leave and escorted her out to a cab. So no more Stalker Michelle on the show. Who knows, maybe a nice stalker guy follows her around while she follows Jake around, and they'll all be happy together.
Ella got the other one-on-one date. No bungee jumping involved. Instead, they went on a day trip out to Sea World and Jake invited her son out with them. He thought it was the right thing to do especially as it was recently Ella's birthday. It was definitely a more tame date.
So, who went home this week? Elizabeth the Nanny and someone named Valishia. I didn't even know she was there. Who's Valishia? Poor thing.
Next week looks to dish out just as much drama. The preview showed Jake not even wanting to hand out the last two roses and tossing them into the fire. Amazing. He must really not want those last two women around so much that he'd rather burn a couple of roses than have them linger for another week. For a guy who strikes me as hot but boring, it's still interesting to watch him react to some of the drama unfolding around him.
