We come back to our agonizing cliffhanger of Slade asking Jo if she still has feelings for him and Jo sparkling like crazy. Jo tears up as best she can and tells Slade she'll always have feelings for him, of course. HA! I knew it! I mean, I know it didn't take Nostradamus to see that line coming, but I did, in fact, call it. She goes on, however, to tell Slade that she needs to do this for herself, meaning move on, I guess. Jo tells us that she and Slade need to take their relationship to another level - the level of an amazing friendship. I thought that's what you guys were. Wasn't that the whole premise here? Slade nods like a big boy and they stroll off out of the park together. Bummer.

"Slade, I said no gum. Spit it out!"

Jo meets up with the girlfriends to tell them about refusing Slade. The girls pretty much don't care and want to know what she's going to do about her Final Decision tomorrow. Jo says she can't possibly make such a decision at Slade's house, which is apparently just what Brunette Friend has been waiting to hear. She throws her arms in the air and screams, "Road trip!" They all start giggling and Jo tells us that retreating to some other place will be the best thing "fer sure." Then she asks Blonde Bangs to tell Chris and Lucas for her that she's ditching them. Of course she will! That is what a good anorexic hostess does.

Speaking of the World's Sweetest Bro-mance, Chris and Lucas are making themselves some healthy egg whites bright and early the next morning. They give us the irritating news that they will each be taking Jo on one final date today before the Final Decision. Are you kidding me? What, pray tell, are these dates going to determine that we don't already know?

"So couples yoga after we eat?"

As they continue to give each other googly eyes Blonde Bangs prances in to make her announcement. She says that Jo is at a crossroads, she needs more time and she's gone to San Diego. No elimination tonight! The guys are all like, "So now what? We just make out with each other tonight?" But Blonde Bangs assures them that they will be joining Jo in San Diego where she will make her Final Decision. The guys are less excited about seeing Jo, and more excited about getting out of Slade's house. They pack jubilantly.

Jo is back in the confessional booth pleading with us to understand that she just HAS to get out of LA to clear her head and get some perspective. Jo? No one cares. Let's move it along. Next Blonde Bangs calls Slade to tell him that they're leaving and then she goes on to tell him PRECISELY where they're going. Specifically, the Ivy Hotel in downtown San Diego. Well, you have one guess as to where Slade is headed.

Chris and Lucas arrive at the hotel and immediately start basking in the glorious surroundings. It's unclear whether or not they get their own rooms, but I can bet they'll be sleeping together tonight. After putting their crap down they head out to stroll around downtown San Diego and see what the city has to offer. Just kidding! They head straight for the hotel bar and start getting drunk. Chris says he's expecting Blonde Bangs to show up and give them further instructions, so imagine his surprise when it's SLADE who rears his ugly head! He's wearing a t-shirt, jeans and another freaking scarf. No crocheted cap today, unfortunately.

Lucas is so ready to throw down.

The Bro-Mance Boys have a kind of stand-off with Slade right there in the hotel bar and Slade finally breaks down and apologizes for ruining the last elimination ceremony. He assures the boys that it has nothing to do with them - they're awesome! It's just that he had all these feelings resurfacing about Jo and he really needed to explore them. But alas, he's figured out what he needs to know and he's now just here to wish the bros luck. They all shake hands and then Slade slinks away.
