Bachelor Babbels: Episode 8
Yeah man, before you know it, there's already a new episode of The Bachelor online and we can get back to it. Only eight ladies left and there's one Thomas, so we still have to move forward. I checked how many episodes there were last season, and that was thirteen including the reunion. At the pace we have now, we're going to go mercilessly over that, and at that same pace, there still won't be any kissing. We can't have that. We deserve a bit more juice. As it looks now, this is going to be a very peaceful reunion, because Thomas has shown himself to be a real good guy. So it has to happen in Mexico. Will this be the episode? Pretty please?
1. Bet that Thomas's whole ‘it's not fun to end the search for love’ is about the fact that he has to send someone home again and we've fallen into a sourly edited preview again?
2. Well, I actually agree with Indigo; where is her date?
3. Whoa, whoa, WHOA. Just ten minutes into the episode and someone is already being sent aside. Is Thomas really going to step on the gas now? Ascha is also brought up, is she going to run off too? What a battlefield, man.
4. But no matter how slowly Thomas is taking it, I do think it's cool that he's going for the girls I really didn't see coming at all. Like Inge getting a rose before the ceremony (too cute) and that Indigo isn't a sure thing for the finale. Or I'm just extremely bad at predicting, that could also be it.
5. ‘Just relax in your body’ is a phrase I'm going to borrow from Anna Noëlle. Sounds very relaxing.
6. Well, sorry, but I really don't see that spark between those two jumping over yet. Chocolate or not, and even though love goes through the stomach, I don't see it.
7. I can really relate to Thomas wanting to stay at the table to finish his wine. Otherwise, it's just a waste.
8. And in this week's ‘enough about me, what do you think of me?’ the girls get to go on a shopping date, because Thomas is curious about what they would buy for him.
9. Well, that whole bitch fight between Maureen and Anna Noëlle isn't that bad, I think. Although the producers are really busy with these kinds of forced conversations this episode.
10. Just a quick note: am I the only one who finds this episode a little bit of a snoozefest? Yoga and shopping as the only dates in one episode is really not Bachelor-worthy.
11. I always enjoy it when people say they've traveled through Bali, because nine times out of ten they mean they've been drinking non-stop in Canggu. #wanderlust
12. Just a little hashtag: #durftevragen. Do you also get the idea that Maureen is a bit sneakier than she has come across so far?
13. Now again that rose ceremony. What is this for an episode, man?! It started so promisingly exciting with a Yaël who was immediately sent home, but I could have just as well taken a power nap in the last 30 minutes.
14. Yep, the creators clearly thought so too, because they really didn't know what to do with the previews to make it a bit juicy (see point 1 — it feels so good to be right). Next episode new chances?
15. Aahh, the claws are sharpened, the girls are clearly done with it: it needs to get steamy. ‘I just have to grab him by the face,’ is said and meine gute, I haven't agreed with something this much all season. GOOOO.
