Top 10 Moments of The Bachelor, Episode 7

So we spent Episode 7 in Belize with Ben and the 6 remaining ladies last week. Does anyone remember what happened the last time we went to Belize?

Yes, another clueless guy fell for another crazy maneater. Things obviously haven’t changed in the Bachelor story of love, 12 seasons later.

Also, why is ABC REUSING exotic locations???? That is low rent. They need to send their marketing team out to secure some new all-inclusive resort sponsors, and they’d better be even more remote and exotic this time around – because scenery shots are at least 50% of the appeal of this show.

So with that, back to Belize! Here were my top 10 picks for best moments of Episode 7:

10. Lindzi Says S*&!balls

I didn’t know that these words existed in Lindzi’s world of horses and fairy tales. Also, does anyone else feel like they know nothing about Lindzi at this point? Can’t wait to find out more in her hometown date.

9. Lindzi and Ben Write a Fairy Tale on their Date

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course this was Lindzi’s suggestion. And then they proceed to dramatically seal the fairy tale into a dirty plastic bottle and litter our planet’s ocean waters by tossing it in for some tourist or bird to find days later.

8. Ben Continues to Choose Dirty, Labor Intensive Dates for the Women

7. Courtney attempts to show emotion

When in reality, this is just the point in the season when all women are legally bound in their contracts with ABC to cry and say “I’m falling for him” at least once on screen, or else they go home.

But those fake tears come to halt very quickly because………………..

6. Courtney has no girlfriends and is “The Talent”

Overall, I found this dinner conversation to be incredibly awkward and revealing for Ben. Maybe there is hope after all!

My favorite quote of the episode was during this dinner:

Ben: “You’re not getting along with any of these women. How does this apply to real life – can you not connect with others in high pressure situations?”

Courtney: “Do you KNOW what my job is like?! I’m THE TALENT. I have to make everyone happy. I am really well rounded and can adapt to anything. I’m not impressed by these women, or girls, they’re just not worth it.”

5. Rachel successfully dominates the group date by exaggerating her fear of sharks

4. Kacie B. Drops the First L-Bomb of the Season, Secures Group Date Rose and First Hometown Date

3. Courtney believes that Ben is not the only guy in the world – this infuriates Emily

2. The Courtney Intervention

1. Midnight Shaving Party

Top 10 Moments of The Bachelor, Episode 6

I’m really sorry to keep writing the SAME blog post over and over, but really – every top 10 list I write is another list of reasons why I can’t stand Courtney, plus a few other random things for good measure. So here it goes…

10. Courtney’s tattoo art shows that she’s definitely not more mature than a 5th grader

Courtney has absolutely no boundaries, which is why I hate her. She has no respect for the other girls on the date, and no respect for Ben either. I mean, how is Ben supposed to make out with one of the other girls with this ridiculous tattoo on his back?

9. Emily is a saint, Courtney still a biyatch

When Emily apologized, I really fell in love with her. That apology was way over the top and not necessary, but God bless her for having a good heart and being willing to acknowledge her faults. Thankfully for the producers, there is still plenty of drama this season, as Courtney is not willing to forgive and forget. She “doesn’t take being disrespected lightly.” Good for you, Courtney.

8. Courtney is so wet on the boat, let’s everyone know

I’m not even going to dignify that moment with commentary.

7. Blakeley made a weird scrapbook/vision board

Does anyone else remember the last Vision Board Girl? It didn’t end well that time, either.

And we were definitely cheering when Blakeley got sent home after making a scene about going on a 2-0n-1 date in front of poor Rachel. TEAM RACHEL!!!

6. Courtney gets all local native on us

5. Courtney tells everyone that she’s “being stolen away”

Thanks for rubbing it in, Courtney. No one cares that he’s still mesmerized by your t**s.

4. Jamie is creepy

Rule #1: If you’re not a slut, don’t try to be a slut.

Also, I don’t think that dress was meant for straddling.

3. Casey S. has the most awkward cry ever

Someone please turn it off. I can’t watch.

2. Courtney might be going home – just kidding

Honestly, this girl is so over the top disrespectful, even I don’t think it’s funny (and I love train wrecks). I know Courtney’s not here to make friends, but what does she think Ben’s family is going to think when they see this episode? Think ahead, sweetheart. They’re gonna hate you if he’s dumb enough to pick you. And for those of you who think she’s getting the “Michelle Money” editing treatment, I completely disagree. Michelle was definitely spun to be more off-the-wall and aggressive than we saw later in interviews, but she would never say the awful things Courtney has said this season.

and the #1 moment is…

1. Courtney frolics in the pool – may as well be topless

Once again, I still hate you.
