Meanwhile in the helicopter Jenni and Brad are admiring downtown L.A.'s unique architecture (what?) and Jenni is draping herself all over Brad, saying how this is the most exciting thing she's ever done. She's really laying it on thick. The helicopter lands on top of a building where there is a little table set up for them with food, drinks, and a lovely view of my city. You're welcome, Brad and Jenni. Brad tells her that he has been looking forward to spending this alone time with her. Wow, he is really taken with this Phoenix Suns dancer. Imagine what would happen if he met a Dallas Cowgirl. Jenni just sits there with her face-busting smile and hitching up her strapless dress. They continue babbling at each other, going over conversations they've already had and yadda, yadda, yadda. Jenni's voice is making me twitch.
At home the rest of the girls are sitting around trying to have a conversation. DeAnna asks who the girls think will be going on the two-on-one date and Stephy acts exasperated, says she doesn't know, and could she please not be asked. Well! Okay, Stephy doesn't want to talk. McBossy goes into a lecture about how the girls need to answer the question because there is no right or wrong answer. Here is what I gather. DeAnna and McBossy are always trying to get the girls into discussions involving speculation as to what is going to happen next with the whole process and the other girls don't like it because they think DeAnna and McBossy are mean. Not that they won't address certain topics, but just that they don't really want to talk to those two particular girls. I totally get this with regards to McBossy, but as I said last week, I quite like DeAnna. I like her better than the girls who won't talk to her. Let's see what happens next. Ah hah! It's Jade's explosion that we've seen on all the previews. Too bad the producers already shot their wad on this one starting with last week's previews because now it's really anticlimactic. She starts trying to explain that she's not here to have a discussion and both DeAnna and McBossy interrupt her and she totally flips her lid. There are f-bombs galore as we hear beep after beep and her mouth is all blurred out. She's really mad that they'll never let her answer a question without being interrupted, so DeAnna says, "The floor is yours." But nope. Jade has had her tantrum and she's done now. She has other things to do, like sift through people's luggage and tattle-tell to Brad. Well, if anyone ever questioned whether or not Princess Jade was a lady, there you have it.
Jade opens her pie hole.
Oh brother, we're back to Jenni's annoying laugh on the rooftop. They talk a little nonsense and then start making out. Wow, it looks like Jenni has this whole competition in the bag. While the other hags are at home hen-pecking each other, she's on top of the world making out with The Bachelor.
Another Date Box arrives to interrupt the tantrum throwing contest. It's for the group date and here's who's going: Sheena, McBossy, Psycho Hillary, Divorced Bettina, Kristy and Stephy. So of course the important information here is that Jade and DeAnna will be going on the two-on-one. There are mind-numbing screams as the girls pull out a feather boa and a mask and Sheena reads the note: "There's nothing sexier than a woman's laugh. Come show me yours." DeAnna says she's not intimidated by Jade and Jade says she's really worried and hopes that Brad will see what a terrible person DeAnna is. Why don't you worry about whether or not he likes you, Jade? All you've done so far is try to rat out other girls. Not attractive.

Great recap Honey Gangsta.
Just wanted to say that I've been to the Dizzy Rooster, and it's hands down one of the trashiest bars I've ever been in. I know Brad's probably in it just to make money, but ... ick.

I have to tell you I am loving your recaps. Of all the new recappers I feel you are the one who captures the mix between actually recapping the show and snarkiness that TVGasm has long been known for and that we love.
Keep it up coz Im loving your work !
Regarding the show ... the editing makes Jenni look like SO MUCH of a frontrunner that I don't think she will win the whole thing. The only other person he seems to genuinely like is DeAnna but that "I am not friends with them because they will resent me at my wedding" totally turned me off of her. That was ridiculous, stupid, bitchy and delusional.
I don't mind Bettina but he doesn't seem that much into her.
The others are toast.

I agree with Dorian, HG...another great recap! I always enjoy reading them!
I liked DeAnna too, but this last episode made me question that. She looks like a royal bitch. Hm. Maybe it's just the editing? But then again, she had to actually act this way to give them the material.
Let's see...last week we accurately picked Jade and McCarten to be kicked off (yay!), who should we pick this week?
Of the girls left, I'm HOPING Jenni goes next, but I'm betting she's here for another couple of weeks.
My pick to go...Kristy & Hillary.

Great ReCap!
I hope and believe horsey-faced Sheena will go next. DeAnna was an early favorite of mine, but she really showed some personality cracks this week. Hillary? Blah Blah who cares. Jenni is absolutely the most annoying of the bunch. Her cackle-laugh is grating, and I think she is average looking, at best. Why is he so seemingly taken with her? I like Bettina...who unfortunately has AWFUL, fried, life-less hair!! (Step. Away. From. The. Bleach/Blowdryer. Bettina!) but I don't think Brad is diggin' her as much as some others (DD and Jenni). So, bascially, they are all a bunch of flawed idiots, who bring me an hour of laughter each week. BA HA HA HA

I think Kristy and Hillary are next to go.
The last three will (should) be Bettina, Deanna, and Jenni. The last two will be Deanna and Jenni. From there, I can't decide. The BIG question will be, "Is Jenni really that perky or has she been acting this whole time?" If Brad thinks Jenni is being real with him, he'll go with her 'cuz he seems to be hypnotized by her giggles. I have a feeling Brad is the most sexually attracted to Jenni (perky cheerleader), but the most emotionally attracted to Deanna (strong-willed, unemotional). And we all know that when there's a battle between the heart and the penis, the man will always choose the penis.
I'm so glad Milk Carton is gone. What happened to "I'm a strong, confident woman who doesn't need a rose?" That confidence sure did shrivel up quickly when she didn't get a rose.
Why do these women cry so much after not getting picked? They've known the bachelor for about a week at this point? Geez. I would be scared to marry anyone who is this desperate.
Honey, I disagree with you about being on this show automatically disqualifying someone from being likeable or whatever. It's hard to find true love, so I think however you find it is great. At least he doesn't seem to be on here to get famous (although he does seem to like the limelight). They should all just be realistic about the fact that they can't know someone well from 6 weeks on a dating show in a hyped-up "reality". I don't think Brad will propose to the last girl. He's just good at reading cue cards. :)

Also:
"They ask who kissed whom, and she tells them he kissed her. Hillary says that as long as she is the last one who kissed him, she's fine with that. Wrong again, Hillary! Last night Brad had some pretty hot and heavy Jacuzzi tongue time with DeAnna."
I think Hillary meant that she wants to be the last person Brad kisses ever, as in the girl who wins this thing and marries him.

Hi all...new to the Forum. Love your recap. Been reading since the Mayo days.
I agree that Jenni will probably not be the last one standing due to all the face time she's getting. I think Sheena is the dark horse and Bettina will prove herself to be a psycho before it's all over.
Hillary and Kristy are SO OVER.

UGH... that DD chick is such a biotch! She was ok to begin with, but this latest episode really showed some cracks showing her true inner bitch. That whole 2 on 1 date just did not paint her in a good light at all.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who totally can't stand Jenni. Why is it the supposed frontrunners are always the most hated.. very strange.
I think out of the group.. I really like Bettina. She's not as mature as she wants to think she is, but she's the lesser of the idiots.

Hey Guys!
Thanks so much for your comments. Seriously - telling me I am representing the 'Gasm is the best compliment you could give me. I was a TVgasm fan long before I started writing for them, so I really appreciate the love. :)
As for the show, I think I'm with you guys on Hillary and Kristy taking off next. And personally, I CAN'T WAIT for Hillary's psychotic episode. This should be great material.
Much love!
-HG

I thought most of the girls came off not looking good this week....well, looking worse than they usually do. I thought I liked Bettina but calling Jenni a slut for kissing Brad, and then "lying" about it by not telling them was ridiculous.
And i thought Sillary came off as a huge bitch talking about Bettina like a used car. Ho should stop getting so worked up about everything so we don't have to keep looking at the huge forehead vein.
I loved too how McConfidence said that Brad could father her children or be her husband, but not both.
Another HILLARYious recap, good work!

I was thinking the other day, as one of the retarded women spent her precious alone time with who she thought was Brad asking how long he wanted to get engaged for, how different (besides the obvious rushing and ludicrous group dates) this is from actually dating someone. On no American soil could I ask a guy I've known for 3 weeks how long he wants to be engaged for with me without him sprinting for the door. You certainly can't yell out "I love you" after 3 weeks and not totally freak out a poor guy who took you out on a group date.
I can totally see the producers egging these chicks on - 'you might get to marry this guy!!!' 'Yes, yes, I definitely would marry him.'
Good grief.
Also, I think I stand in the minority but I like Jedi, errr Jenni. I think she's doing exactly what guys like, and why would I blame her? That's like giving those bullshit answers to interview questions to get the job even if they're not true. Do what it takes. I mean, there's no real time to get to know the real person, so why not accelerate (by giggling, and saving your dead roses) and win, and then see how it works out. I also think because they play her up so much, she'll be the first one out of the limo - "we break one of the women's hearts like never before!" Thanks Chris Harrison.

I don't even watch The Bachelor, but I make sure to read your recaps because they have me laughing at work. Loves it. I don't really know who these girls are but i'm guessing that I want the sobbers to go home--that just shows weakness and on a reality show, you can't show your weaknesses cause there is always some scheming ho who will call you out on it (cough LACEY cough).
