The Bachelor -Week 4

I really want to go to Park City, Utah now. It is beautiful there. Ben and Rachel's one-on-one date was really awkward. They don't seem to have the chemistry that should be there. The best part of their date is the only time she actually talked to him (at the end of the date). I really wonder what exactly a Fashion Sales Rep does. She sells...fashion?
For the group date, I was pretty excited that he made them ride horses and them go fly fishing with waders. Lindzi was the only one who looked comfortable on a horse. I'm a little confused by how Courtney suddenly had a hat on for the fly fishing part of the date. They don't take purses, so where was she keeping this hat up until then? Also, I have to quote some of Courtney's terrible things she says. They speak for themselves, so I don't even have to comment on them. She says, "Kaci is cute and she's sweet...and she's kinda annoying" and later also says "she thinks she's so cute." Also, her claim of "I'm a nice person. I just want to rip her head off and verbally assault her" and "she should watch herself." You know, all the things nice people say. She also walks around saying "winning" so the girls know that she is winning this thing that is a game to her. This erks the girls since they are there to find their future life partner. I think it's strange that Courtney caught a fish and no one else (including Ben, whose idea this was) caught one. One girl who was sure not to catch a fish was Samantha, who looked miserable on the fishing trip. I don't think she and Ben go together. I agree with his decision to send her home.

After fishing notes: Blakely's hat was cute. But then again, I like anything gray. In his conversation with Samantha, she looked like she was concentrating very hard on looking like Marilyn Monroe and not really listening to him. When he told her, they should end it, she seemed not react at all. It was like she was thinking, "Wait, what did he just say? I wasn't listening." When he was alone with Courtney, I just wasn't buying her act of being insecure. I think she just did that to get the rose. She seems evil like that. She doesn't look him in the eye when she's talking to him. It just goes to show that she's not being honest.

I keep wondering what Jennifer's natural hair color is. Anyone have any guesses? I'm really glad he gave her a rose after making her repel down a big dark hole and then dropping her so she falls into water (ok, so he did too), but still. Speaking of hair color, does Blakely travel everywhere with a complete hair dye kit? Is that her profession? I'm pretty sure it's not. I'd be more likely to believe she is a professional stomper. Seriously, did you see the girl stomp?!? She's been doing it for a while!

There seems to be fewer relationships this season than all the others. It appears that he has no relationship has formed with (he hasn't gotten to know) Elyse, Nicki, Casey S., Monica, Samantha and the mystery brunette. For most of these names, as you read them, you may have no idea who these girls are. That is because they have had no camera time yet. In fact, I had to rewind and find out some of there names because I didn't even know that yet, and I still couldn't find the brunette's name. I liked Ben & Ashley better than him and any of the girls on this episode. He and Ashley were just so cute together. And they weren't awkward at all. This season is filled with awkward moments.

Clay Walker was a nice touch for this "country" themed episode. I like Clay Walker and I'm kind of impressed that Ben knows who he is. I think when Jennifer said "I really feel like we connected" when they were dancing in front of Clay Walker, she was talking about Clay Walker. Same thing when she said "I really like this guy." Again, she was talking about Clay Walker. Eh, I don't blame her. I couldn't help but notice she had reapplied some makeup after swimming in the cave. That's nice that the Bachelor producers let them do that so they don't have to be on TV with no make-up on, but again, where do they keep this stuff (without carrying purses)?

I liked Casey S, until she stirred up all that drama with Emily & Courtney. She was kind of egging Courtney on with her mean comments about Emily. I'm disappointed in her. Besides, she forgot to wear pants to the rose ceremony.

And to sum up all my random jibber jabber up:
Girls I think he should probably just go ahead and send home: Rachel, Courtney (I'm really tired of her weird mouth mannerism and evilness), & Elyse
Girls I think he should keep: Lindzi, Jennifer, the mystery brunette (you know the one who nobody knows her name. You may not even remember her- or thought "Wait, who is that girl? Has she been here the whole time?" Hint: she wore a blue dress to the rose ceremony.)
Girls who just need to suck it up and be tougher (aka Girls who got really whiny): Kacie B. & Emily
