Happy Monday aka Bachelorette Watch Party Day! As you might know, I'm a biggg fan of the outrageous insanity that is the Bachelor / Bachelorette franchise. I've been hosting watch parties since high school, and was even in the New York Post for my watch party one time. That said, I send out a weekly reminder / recap email to my watch party girls every Monday... so I figured, in case anyone missed last week's episode or wanted to re-live the craziness, I'd share that little recap here as well. You're welcome. ;)
First of all, THEY DID THE ANNOYING 'TO BE CONTINUED' AT THE ROSE CEREMONY LAST EPISODE, SO WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO THE TOP 3 IS YET. Ugh abc... why you gotta be so annoying?
First hometown date was Chase (is that his name?). It was in beautiful snowy Colorado which was painful to watch while we're sweating to death here in this ungodly heat but that's neither here nor there. He comes from a broken family so part 1 of the day was meeting with the dad and part 2 was meeting with the rest of the fam. Key takeaway - he is a child of divorce and 'love' means a lot to him and that's why he doesn't open up much and is really boring.
Date number 2 - Jordan (aka the probable winner). Hometown is Chico, California (not to be confused with Chino...#ILoveTheOCForever).
Jordan brings her to his high school to relive his glory days because that's all he has and he's still wayyyy bitter about living under his superstar brother Aaron's shadow for his entire life. Speaking of - he and his other older brother both were like 'WE DON'T LIKE TO TALK ABOUT AARON. DON'T BRING IT UP.' which was a very weird / awkward red flag that Jojo seems completely oblivious to. Oy. Also his mom as super weird and their house was neon green.
Date 3 was to Florida for Robby's hometown. Rob continued to put off the vibe that he miiiight not really like women with a strategically one-buttoned pink shirt.

His family was normal and great - the best fam thus far - but then his mom lets him know that his ex-girlfriend's roommate has been spreading the "rumor" that he broke up with her to go on the show, and drama ensues.

Reminder - Robby was the dude who straight up said "i love you" on their first 1-on-1 date, which according to my unscientific estimation occurred a mere matter of weeks after he broke up with his gf of 4+ years. * CUE RED FLAGS *
The last date was in Texas for our beloved Luke and it was PERFECT. Like straight-out-of-a-Nicholas- Sparks-movie-this-can't-be- real perfect. His family was great, his friends were great, he was great. The collective female population was completely swooning.

I thought it was 100% obvious that she was keeping Jordan and Luke and a toss-up between Robby and Chase on who would go home... but probably Chase (is that his name?) But then something weird happened and Luke pulls her aside at the rose ceremony to tell her "hey i didn't fully say this during our impeccably perfect date yesterday, but I love you." and then she starts bawling and is like "I don't know what to doooooo." So was she going to send our boy Luke home and then this made her re-think that RIDICULOUS / COMPLETELY DUMB choice? Or was she just like 'ahhhhh my mental / emotional well-being is literally hanging on by a thread and I'm pms-ing and I just needed a good cry."

STAY TUNED for more insanity next week. :)
xoxox,
Annie.
