The Bachelorette: Episode 6

This week we didn't have to wait even 10 minutes before the drama unfolded. Chris Harrison comes to Ali's door and tell us that Jesse (from Jake's season) has something to tell her. And Chris isn't going to tell Ali. Chris dials up Jesse. The phone rang forever, by the way. Jesse tells Ali Justin has a girlfriend, and that girlfriend is with her now (!) I really can't believe that this Jessica character schemed with Justin and now she's upset about it. Justin wanted fame. He wanted Rated-R to be famous. He was calling the gf through the season. And we find out there is ANOTHER girlfriend. I loved the way Ali confronts Justin...in front of everyone. She says how hard it is for the guys to go through all this and says, "especially for you Justin, you must be missing your girlfriend in Canada!" Well done, Ali. Justin RUNS AWAY through the bushes from Ali and the camera. He finally comes back to talk to Ali. I think Ali hit the nail on the head: Justin needed that time to construct a coverup for his lies. But, he won't call Jessica a liar. He finally limps away while phone messages he left to Jessica are dubbed over. ZING! Ali didn't have chemistry with Justin anyway. Glad she didn't shed any tears over it. She was all anger, with "fire in her eyes" as Kirk said.

But I won't waste anymore breath on the lying cheater. Moving on.

Ty gets the first one-on-one date. I still don't really like him. I think he's super sweet, but he and Ali seem more like good friends. Wasn't a fan of the turkish bath either. Between the music, the loin cloths and the massages it was practically soft porn. It was awkward. Ick. At dinner, we hear that Ty divorced partly because his household wasn't traditional. Seems like he wants to be the money maker and he wants a wife who will stay home and clean. Hmm, don't think Ali likes that too much. They have a "rememorable" (word courtesy of Ty) dance in the courtyard. Although Ali is unsure of certain things about him, Ty gets a rose.

The group date is next: Roberto, Chris L., Kirk, Craig. Craig is pissed he's on a group date again. At this point, I was guessing he was going home. I was tired of him whining the whole episode. The boys have to olive wrestle with professionals then with each other...to have the sought-after one on on time with Ali. Chris L. isn't being such a good sport at first, saying he uses olive oil for breadsticks but eventually sucks it up for Ali. Craig says he's a lawyer and usually fights with words, not muscles. Speaking of muscles--Kirk anyone? Soon it came down to the "championship" between Roberto and Craig. Was it just me or did it look like Roberto won? Craig was always the one pinned. Oh well, what do I know about Turkish oil wrestling? Craig wins the one-on-one time. They have zero chemistry, we learn. Ali turns on her lifted eyebrows and fake smile and laugh. She's bored and ready for the date to be over. If she wanted a one-on-one, should we have given it to him already. She never kissed him either. There's no rose on the group date.

Frank gets the final one-on-one. They get to go to a spice bazaar! How fun! Frank finally lets loose and is himself again and Ali likes it. Frank tries on a shiny turban and Ali tries on a belly dancer dress. Frank says: "First of all, wow. Second of all, wow. Third of all, why am I wearing this hat?" Haha. They also get the ultimate sales pitch at the rug booth. (According to my mom, $980 is quite a steal for a handmade rug.) I wonder who had to pay for it? And will it count as Frank's baggage on the next flight? The two have dinner at a cistern and finally have some deep convo. Frank is still single because he's been cautious. Ali is scared Frank is going to break her heart. Frank gets a rose.

Cocktail party is canceled. We head right to the rose ceremony. Everyone freaks out, but we all know (and hope) it's Craig going home. And it is! Craig is sent home.

Letters to the fallen:

Justin, Adios. Go find Wes in Mexico. You guys will be great buds.

Craig, you still remind me of Robert from Everybody Loves Raymond. You and Ali had no chemistry.

Previews. Uhm what? They showed us way too much. So the final three are Ty, Roberto and Frank? Or they edited it to look that way at least. Frank is going to break Ali's heart in Tahiti in a few weeks. It doesn't look like Ali learned to cry in a pretty way since last season. Looks like we are in for one messy hair, smeared makeup next couple of weeks.

PS. TEAM KIRK/ROBERTO.

Freefills.

It’s the little things in life that excite me. Like free refills all summer at RaceTrac. $6.99 for the cup and you can fill it up all day, everyday until August 1. (It includes slurpees! Yes!) $6.99 is a great deal, especially since the one-day-only refill cup at Six Flags is $12.

Every time I’ve been to RaceTrac lately, it has been PACKED. Families filling up their cups, business people filling up on their way to work. Whoever in corporate RaceTrac is behind this is a genius. Not because we benefit. Think about it. Everyone is coming to get their free drinks. Some of these people are bound to be low on gas. So what do they do? They fill up at RaceTrac. They’re already there and everything. It’s a great advertising strategy.

Sunday, I went to see Toy Story 3 with the family for Father’s Day. What did I do on my way to the theater, you ask? I filled up my RaceTrac cup and hid it in my purse so I didn’t have to pay a fortune for a Tinseltown coke. It’s amazing.

Am I a little concerned that I’ll drink too much coke because of this? Maybe. But, I’m too stoked about the deal and the slurpees that I just don’t mind.

The Bachelorette: Episode 5

Iceland started out with a poetry competition. And the guy who won got a one-on-one with Ali. Awkward poems: Kasey and Chris N. Kasey, what were you even saying? Whoever said he needed subtitles was right. Chris N., it seemed like you were making it up on the spot. Poems I liked: Kirk, Roberto, Frank and Craig. Kirk definitely took notes during the Lion King date. He walked up to Ali and grabbed her hand and involved her in his poem. Frank did the same, but since he already had a one-on-one she gave it to Kirk. Yay! Frank kind of threw a fit, but he needed to get over it.

Kirk gets the first one-on-one. Yay! Their relationship has already progressed so much I sort of forgot he hadn't had a one-on-one yet. He really brings out the goofy side of Ali. And, I love what Kirk said about not feeling embarrassed to be his little-kid-goofy-self. He has hit little boy moments, and she joins in with him. Love needs silliness. And how precious (and dorky) were the matching sweaters? I loved it. I was a little worried when he wouldn't open up about past relationships, but when he finally did...man, it was a powerful story. He got sick from mold and asbestos. Ali was totally impressed with him by this and understood Kirk's positive outlook on life. She was able to understand that he isn't all fun and games, he's a real person too. (which is what she needed to know). They seem so natural together. I am totally Team Kirk! Kirk gets a rose.

Next is the group date: Ty, Frank, Chris N., Roberto, Chris L. and Craig. Those guys were definitely jumping for joy that they weren't on the two-on-one date. Those are a terror. Why were Craig and Ty fawning over how "hot" Ali looked at the first of this date? Cute? yes. Hot? no. They are really wanting some action, I suppose. Ty had an advantage since he's basically a cowboy, and Ali loved it. I'm not a huge Ty fan, but I think he played this date well. He helped Ali get strapped on the horse and he helped all the other guys too. Chris L. was getting pretty annoyed, but I'm glad he took initiative and went in the cave first. I would've been terrified to go in that cave! It looked like a blast! But, keep in mind, probably three camera men had gone down the hole before Ali and the guys had to. So that's not so bad. I thought the lagoon part of the date was so neat. Ali ripping off her clothes REALLY put the guys over the edge. They couldn't get out of their clothes fast enough. I was wondering the whole time if the lagoon was man-made. I was sort of panicking thinking they might be swimming with weird Icelandic fish and critters. Haha. Frank needed to stop pouting on this date. This is the Bachelor, if you want time with Ali you gotta be pushy. Ali noticed this, too. I think she needs to be sought after. She doesn't want to have to pull it out of the guys. I was sort of surprised we didn't see much of Roberto on this date, but I guess Ali knows she wants to keep him. Ty gets the rose for being there for Ali all day. Ew.

Meanwhile, wrestler Justin is plotting against Kasey AND gets his cast off! It was a tad over the top, and hilarious, when he threw his crutches in the trash. But, I get it, he's not restricted by them anymore. (And why did we not see anyone go nuts about the cast being off? No one even noticed?) It was pretty funny watching Kasey and Justin get prepared. They both think they have it in the bag. Kasey is still talking about guarding and protecting Ali's heart. Enough! It was great when Frank was encouraging Kasey to show Ali the tattoo. Frank doesn't care about Kasey. He wants Ali to see what a creep Kasey is. Evil little plotter, Frank. ha.

Justin and Kasey get the two-on-one. I've never liked Justin for Ali, but I was definitely rooting for him over Kasey. The ride the helicopter on top of the volcano. (So cool, by the way!) The ice seats and decor inside that cave were awesome, too! Justin talks to Ali first. He seems semi-genuine, but I'm still not sure of his intentions. I think he just wanted to see Kasey go down. The whole time Justin and Ali are talking, the camera is flashing to Kasey. He keeps talking about how he will go through any pain for Ali. GETTING A TATTOO IS NOT MORTAL PAIN, KASEY. He finally shows Ali the tattoo. She was definitely freaking out. It was funny. I think Kasey definitely needs psychiatric help. Ali pegged him though: he's in love with the idea of being in love. She let him down easy though. Partly, because she probably thought if she told him the truth (that he was crazy) that he would snap and go nuts. Justin gets the rose.

Cocktail and rose ceremony. The area they were in for the cocktail party was gorgeous, loved it. Quote of the episode: "Kasey came, he sang, he got a tattoo and he left." Hahah. Frank talks to Ali first, sheds a little tear and Ali is glad to see "that look" again. Chris N. is just awkward. He trails off when he talks. His guilty pleasure is mexican food? (Now we know why the camera never showed him.) I think he stayed this long because he was the lesser of the evils. Craig was pretty funny with his fake tattoo. It took off the pressure and let Ali laugh for a minute. I was glad to hear Chris L. say he would move anywhere with Ali. I love how close he is with his family and how much he admires his father, but it was good for Ali to hear that he would put his wife first. Kirk wears the sweater to the ceremony! Adorable. Chris N. goes home without a rose. Duh!

Letters to the fallen:

Kasey, I think we're all genuinely worried about your mental health. Get some help. And for goodness sakes, get your tattoo removed. No woman will love that.

Chris N., I don't have much to say to you. I don't know you.

Frank has been nixed out of my picks, leaving: Kirk, Chris L. and Roberto. :)

Next week: the Chihuahua-Wes style drama. SOMEONE HAS A GIRLFRIEND. My bets are on Justin.

Also, Jake & Vienna are over. Jake, please don't attempt to go on and win Ali back. Just don't.

The Six Reasons Why Glee is the Greatest Show on Earth.

Today I read a blog. Six Reaons Fox's Glee is Infuriating. Reading it annoyed me. I had to face fact that there are people who don't love Glee. Who are you? Can I duel you? Or can we at least sing about? (To semi-mirror Jesse St. James' lines to Rachel when she won't come out of the bathroom to have sex with him.)

I decided to make my own list of six things. Six things that sing Glee's praises. Yes.

1. THE CONCEPT. To my knowledge, there has never been a musical TV show before. It's ground breaking. Every week is an hour out of a 22-hour broadway show. (22 episodes in season one.) Ryan Murphy, thank you for your brilliant brain and for pushing this show.

2. THE NODS TO POP STAR LEGENDS. It started with Journey. Many people, including my mother, found "Don't Stop Believin'" to be despicable. No can do Steve Perry like Steve Perry, right? Right. But the goal of this show is to remake classics into choral versions. It works. Then there was Madonna and Lady Gaga. Gaga responded to the episode via Twitter: "GLEE WAS SO AMAZING! AH!!!!" There's also Neil Diamond, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Phil Collins, Queen. ("Somebody to Love" still gives me chills.)

3. THE TALENT. Matthew Morrison is insane on this show. Some people, like the Phoenix blog I listed, hate his rapping. I think he's pretty amazing at it. No, he's not Eminem. But this is a Broadway-singing, choir show. Choir rap is much different, you see. Also, "Dream On" is legen...wait for it...dary. (If you've never watched How I Met Your Mother, disregard that.)

Lea Michele can do anything. Really. From "Defying Gravity" to "Poker Face." She's been on Broadway since age 7. Hence the mad pipes. (I also hope the gossip about her being a diva in real life are false.)

Cory Monteith is a very different vocalist. He has said on multiple occasions that before Glee the only place he ever sang was the shower. That's what I love about Glee. Most everyone was a nobody. But everyone is ridiculously awesome.

4. THE CHARACTERS AND GUEST APPEARANCES. Let me start with the guest appearances. Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel, Neil Patrick Harris, Olivia Newton-John, Josh Groban. Uhm WOW. Bringing in these professional, amazing guest stars really puts the show on a whole new level. Brings in fans of those stars and adds depth to the show. All the regular characters are amazing, too. I've already raved about Mr. Shue, Rachel and Finn so I'll take a second to do the others justice. Mark Sailing (Puck) plays a fantastic jerk, with some soft spots, with a beautiful voice. Really, more solos from Puck please! Glee wouldn't be the same without Chris Colfer (Kurt) either. Having a male who can sing soprano...whoa! Also, Heather Morris (Brittany) and Naya Rivera (Santana) aren't exactly major characters, but they have some of the funniest parts. (Dolphins are gay sharks, anyone?) Ps. Santana totally rocked "Bad Romance." I want more! And Brittany can SERIOUSLY dance; best dancer on the show.

5. THE WIT. Every character is witty, but Sue Sylvester's lines alone could hold this show up.

"You know, for me trophies are like herpes. You can try to get rid of them but they just keep coming. Sue Sylvester has hourly flair ups of burning itchy highly contagious talent."

"I will no longer be carrying around photo ID. Know why? People should know who I am."

6. THE MESSAGE. It's okay to be you. That's what Glee tell us, and I like it.

The Bachelorette: Episode 4

I will guard and protect your heart.

Ali, I want to guard and protect your heart.

I want someone to guard and protect my heart.

Ali, will you jump in my heart and stay a while so that I can guard and protect your heart?

WE GET IT KASEY. (Kasey got the first one on one.) You obviously failed the psych evaluation but the producers ignored it and put you on the show because, let's face it, psycho people make good reality TV. Honestly, that helicopter/museum date was constructed to be perfect. But it was a raging disaster. Take note, Kasey: impromptu, can't-hold-a-tune-in-a-bucket singing is not a good idea. Especially when you sound like Kermit the Frog. Did you notice her reaction? She gave the lifted eyebrows, head nodding bit. Not good, not good. Singing a second time was even worse. You were freaking her out! It MIGHT have been okay if you weren't a psycho and you had a voice like Michael Buble. I don't think there's anything else to be said about this date. (Other than how goofy it was that all the security guards were trying to scurry out of the camera's way since Ali and Kasey "had the whole museum to themsleves...") Ali, you should've sent him home then and there. I know she was thinking he was just nervous, but she's in for some trouble.

The group date was next. But we might as well call the group date Roberto's one on one. But he got it right. He was a terrible singer; I half expected Simon Cowell to come out of nowhere screaming. BUT he sang TO Ali. How precious, right? (I, personally, melted when Jesse sang. He was the only one with a decent voice.) Kirk's reaction cracked me up: "What? Why didn't I think of that?!" Someone, Kirk or Jonathan, called Roberto Rico Suave. Bahaha. Then all the guys had to watch Ali and Roberto's intertwined bodies practice and perform their Lion King dance. How horrible for them! That situation was a breeding ground for drama. Enter, Jonathan. We already know the guy is insecure and couldn't plant a passionate kiss on a woman if his life depended on it. But now he starts panicking. HE wanted that time with Ali. The rest of the date the weatherman is a spiraling mess. Once the Roberto section of the date is over, Ali and the guys go back to some kind of bar to hang out. Tension is high sine no one has had time with Ali. More panicking from Jonathan. Meanwhile, Ali and Craig are having a intimate conversation when Jonathan tries to interrupt and steal Ali. Typical Bachelorette fashion, yes? NO. Ali and Craig don't let Jonathan do this. (What?) Kirk, like Roberto, also did something right on this date: He told Ali to go to her room and get some sleep because she was sick. How adorable! It ends up working in his favor as he gets to tuck her in for the night. SO sweet. All the other guys are positive that Kirk is getting freaky with Ali, but he was a perfect gentleman. Go Kirk! No one gets a rose because Ali is feeling sick.

Kasey disappears and no one know where he is. We know he is out getting a tattoo, which I was positive was of Ali's name. Turns out it's of a shield protecting a heart. Shutter. To make things creepier, there are 11 diamonds on it for the 11 men left. Ah! And why did he lie to the guys in the house? I have no idea. Maybe he didn't want anyone else to copy his idea and also get a tattoo for Ali. Chyeah right.

Chris L. gets the final one on one. I thought for sure that Ali was going to ditch the date altogether. But, Chris ended up getting a better deal out of this thing. The date was more real life and very chill. And bringing chicken noodle soup and flower? Major points, Chris L. Major points. Loved the date. Loved them. I'm really glad they DIDN'T fly his dad out for the birthday dinner. That would have been so Jason Mesnick of the show. The birthday phone call was enough. It was sweet. Mad props to Ali for pulling herself together, although quite disheveled, and going on the date. Chris L. gets a rose.

The cocktail party and rose ceremony are up next. Drama, yes? Someone, anyone, should have told Ali about Kasey's sketch tattoo. I have no doubt Kasey would have been sent home if she had seen it. But I guess Frank is to blame since Kasey was trying to tell Ali when Frank interrupted. Chris N., who is that? He's like batman; never seen but always there. I hope he gets more airtime next week! Jesse and weatherman Jonathan are sent home this week.

Letters to the fallen:

Jesse, I'm sad to see you go. I was a fan. But, the chemistry with Ali just wasn't there. Too bad. Find me, Jesse!

Jonathan, I'm glad you were able to embrace the jokes and make fun of yourself as the weatherman. You and Ali just didn't have it.

See you both on The Bachelor Pad!

Now my top picks are: Kirk, Roberto, Chris L, Frank

Next week: Iceland, volcanoes and love!

There's hope.

I love Girl Meets Gown on WE. I was immediately enthralled. It's filmed at Stardust in Plano. It's about girls who are shopping for their wedding dresses. Of course I love it! Well, a few episodes ago, there was this girl. She was a seminary student and she was looking for the perfect dress for her forest wedding. She wasn't like all the other brides. No whining, crying or demanding screams. And you could just tell, there was genuine love between her and her fiance.

Well, one of my best friends Megan also saw this episode. Megan could be a private investigator, honestly. She loves stalking people and she is fabulous at it. So, she messaged me with link to the husband's blog. (Not that it was that hard to find, but it's just in her personality.)

This blog gives me hope. There is a perfect fairytale love story for me. And God is orchestrating it--not Nicholas Sparks or Taylor Swift. Jessica and Sam's story is beautiful. It just proves that God is in every situation. Megan said it to me and I'll say it to you...I'm holding out for something like this.

Read it and weep, people: "My Love Story..."

June Obsessions.

I have fallen in love twice so far in June.

No. 1 TOMS Wedges

Are these not the most fantastic pair of heels? There's no doubt they're sinfully comfortable. They are the perfect pair of summer wedges. And don't forget, they're TOMS so it's buy a pair and another gets sent to a child without shoes. I am guessing (and hoping) that if I buy these wedges that TOMS will be sending the flat version of the shoe to a child....not a heel.

No. 2 iPhone 4

It's even more beautiful than I imagined. (Okay, so we all saw the prototype that was leaked. But everything looks sexier when Steve Jobs is showing it on a giant screen during the keynote.) My brother and I were glued to the liveblog on GDGT. Every few seconds one of us would say, "Did you see that?!" This is the biggest step the iPhone has taken since it was originally created in 2007. There are two cameras: one rear and one front. The front is for FaceTime. Amazing. iMovie will be available for download on this intelligent little device. Everyone's a journalist now, really. News organizations used to get raw footage from younger smart phones. But now, you don't even have to send it in. You can be your own news source--edited video and all. iBooks will also be a part. (Kindle, you thought you were in trouble with the iPad? Now you really have no chance.) Then there's the retina display and the gyroscope...which I can't even begin to comprehend. Both of which I know makes the iPhone 4 all the more visually appealing and perfected. Am I pre-ordering next week, you ask? You bet your bottom dollar.

The Bachelorette: Episode 3

So I've decided to blog weekly about the Bachelorette. Not because the show is the most important thing in the world, but it's something that I watch regularly and I need to get in the habit of blogging on a regular basis. Here goes.

This season sort of seems like a repeat of other seasons--right down to the contestants. Craig (who thank goodness went home last week) was David from Jillian's season. From the sour attitude and argumentative nature right down to the bulging eyes. Weatherman Jonathan is Juan from Jillian's season. Combine the crying, the "worrying" about other guys in the house and mousy personality and you've got Juan and the weatherman. Kirk is a lot like Michael from Jillian's season. Kirk finally kisses Ali and practically mimics Michael's words when he says "Ali really likes me!" And Justin is the new Wes. They say love don't come easy, Justin. Especially when you piss off all the guys in the house. The dates are also seeming like repeats, but I'll get to that later.

Now for this week. The first one-on-one date went to Roberto, the baseball player. At first I wasn't a Roberto fan; I just thought all Ali wanted to do was sleep with him. But, after Roberto offered to play catch with Ali in the front of the house my opinion changed. (It's also possible I'm biased since baseball boys are definitely my type). I was having deja vu on this date though. Remember Jillian's date with Ed? They did a zip line between buildings. However, the date was pretty throw-up-a-little-in-your-mouth-cute though. Halfway down the tightrope, Roberto stops her (21 stories up, mind you) and they have their first kiss. Made me want to vomit? A bit. Adorable? Certainly. The chemistry between them is definitely there. I mean, come on, "I can always tell how I like a guy by the way we cuddle" ? I laughed a bit. But overall, great date. Roberto gets the rose. I see Roberto going to the final three at least.

Next was the group date. Ali and the guys make a music video with the Barenaked Ladies. Seems pretty harmless, right? That is until the guys receive their different scenes with Ali. Weatherman immediately begins to panic. He has a passionate kiss with librarian Ali. Please believe there were tears all through the day. When he is filming with her, he walks in to grab her for a passionate kiss...but there is no kiss. Just a hug. Take two. Ali kisses Weatherman. Many takes later they get it right. Poor Ali, that whole scene was just awkward. Then there was Kirk who had a bedroom scene and not nervous at all. He was more like psyched to roll around in the sack with the bachelorette, with all the guys and camera crew watching. The guys start getting uncomfortable and jealous and decide to walk away and not watch. Frank was one of those guys. Side note on Frank: Ali is not your girlfriend, bud. The whole episode Frank is panicking about Ali being with other guys. You signed up for THE BACHELORETTE, the most incestuous television show. Please stop whining. Go back to funny Frank. But I do give him props for getting slapped by Ali nine times in a row. But Kirk's scene went well. The scene kept going after hearing "cut!" two times! I felt bad for John C. He got one take and all he had to do was get in the tub with Ali as she got out. Poor guy never had a chance to make the sparks fly. Then all the guys head to a wrap party where Ali and Kirk get it on in the hot tub, Justin pouts because he couldn't get in the pool and the bad music video is shown. I loved that Cape Cod Chris opened up. He's adorable. But I still can't decide if the mother signature tattoo is sweet or creepy. Kirk gets the group date rose. One complaint on this date--I wanted to see more Jesse! I think he's positively adorable. I don't think I even know what his scene was, but I did catch a little glimpse of his solid, tatted up bod in the pool. Weeeeee.

Now comes the drama. Justin decides he needs to see Ali, to prove to her he's "here for the right reasons." Sounding Wes-like again, Justin. He hobbles all the way to Ali's house to talk to her. Okay, he definitely couldn't have sneaked out. (I really wanted to say "snuck," but that's a grammatical sin.) The mansion is crawling with security guards. The guys aren't supposed to leave. He obviously got permission because hello ABC is trying to make good TV. What really gets me about this though is how he didn't tell any of the guys he did it. Hunter gets the second one-on-one and he begins to brag about how he'll be the first one to see Ali's house. Justin stays silent. No, he's not being the bigger person by keeping it to himself. Every person watching knows what's going on and he's trying to make Hunter look like an idiot.

But anyway, Hunter's date is next. They cooked burgers. I think these sort of dates are important further into the process. After the fancy, ritzy dates the couples need to see how they interact in more real life situations. But it was too early for this. Plus, it was incredibly boring. I could practically hear the crickets chirping when they were in the hot tub...that wasn't so hot. I knew after Hunter kissed her shoulder and then she moved away from him that Hunter was doomed. And she kept doing her polite, yet annoying, laugh. And her polite "Mmhmm-ing." Hunter was sent home without a rose.

Now the cocktail party and rose ceremony. First I must say...Jesse, babe, I know you've never owned a suit before this show, but what was the with all the denim? Really. Denim shirts are only okay when you're at a cowboy-themed party. It's okay Jesse, I forgive you. You're too sweet. The Justin drama returns. After Roberto tells Ali he's worried about Justin's intentions, Ali tells him about Justin's visit. Then begins the section of the episode that resembles 13 middle school girls. Roberto tells Ty, Craig, Jesse and others. (Ty and Craig were quite annoying this episode as well. Stop complaining about everything! Also, I keep excepting Craig to say "Ma, Robert is poking me!" a la Everybody Loves Raymond) Then the boys confront Jesse who claims he is being sacrificed. In the end, John C. and Steve were sent home. I felt bad for Steve, he made a little picnic and everything.

So far my picks are: Jesse, Chris L., Kirk, Roberto.

'Til next week!
