Bachelor chats: episode 3

We have really started now, because the first dates are scheduled for this episode. I couldn't watch it on Wednesday so I did my best to avoid spoilers as much as possible. That turned out to be quite difficult, because everyone seemed to have an opinion about this episode, and I think for some the irritation level really went through the roof. So curious. We're going for it again.

1. Seriously, if Indigo doesn't make it to the finale, I don't know anymore. Isn't she the obvious winner this season?

2. No idea how the casting went further by the way, but it can't be any different than one of the requirements was: ‘must be a hockey girl’? Really, 90 percent of the girls fall into that category. It's still a miracle that not one of them has spotted him at a TD.

3. ‘I felt a bit of that sexual tension with her,’ Thomas said about Indigo. Uh, us too Thomas, us too.

4. This conversation between Romy and Maureen feels very, uh... Staged. Anyway, the production must have placed them there to have a mandatory chat about the current state of affairs.

5. The chat: ‘What do you do for charity?’ with the answer: ‘I'm a vegan’ can be repeated every episode throughout the entire season for me. Best. Answer. Ever.

6. That accent of Michelle is really too cute. ‘I didn't really have anything like ‘wooo’ or sooooo.’

7. Linde: ‘I'm a bit shy in groups.’
Also Linde: ‘I'm going to the shiiiiiit.’

8. Yep, Indigo is going to be in the finale with Maureen. I'm announcing that already.

9. Oh god, the cocktail party is coming up again. Therefore, here’s the next announcement or prediction:

10. ‘And then I thought: yeah... Fuck this shit.’ Linde really needs to stay in as long as possible just to make comments like this every episode.

12. Romy, hello? Contact? Everyone is completely checked out of your story and as someone who says they continuously check in with themselves, that's quite inconvenient.

13. I really don't understand at all why she is already getting the third rose. If she starts talking about her experience in beauty pageants again in the next episode, I'm checking out too.

14. What's going on with this order? Why hasn't Indigo received a rose yet? Thomas himself said there was sexual tension and Lysette, with whom he hardly exchanged a word, is already standing there with that rose in hand. I'm completely lost. Did he perhaps forget that he hasn't mentioned her name yet?

15. This cliffhanger, meine gute. The cocktail party is going to be intense. Is there going to be some tongue action? Please let there be tongue action. It's episode 4, it should be allowed by now, right? Goooo.
