I sure would have enjoyed if Gabby and Rachel had had a moment to commiserate with each other and maybe compared notes to find out what he was telling each of them. Then said, screw this, we're out of here. Let's go get a drink. Cannot believe Clay-uh's mother decided that Rachel was a stronger woman because she decided to stick it out. No, Mom, that makes her a pathetic simpering little girl with no self-worth for not standing up for herself. His behavior was bad enough last night. But clearly, we all know what's going to happen tonight. He convinced them to stay and fight for him and it seems he'll do nothing of the sort for them. Nothing like kicking the ladies when they were already down enough. I wonder if he's going to at least have some decency and let them go before he goes to Susie or is he going to keep them on standby until he gets Susie's answer. If he does the latter, I have ZERO sympathy for either Rachel or Gabby if they still stick around after they find that out. I don't know how Clay-un is going to weather this in his personal or professional life. Whether you believe bedding multiple woman at once is in bad taste or you think it's fine, I would think the majority of people would find it a bad look and would choose not to be associated with such frat boy shenanigans.

I just read that Gaby is actually Dean's ex and apparently Caelyn also has a good friend on the show (didn't say who, though). Good Lord. They sure keep it all in the family, huh?

How he can think that Susie would be good with the fact that he would have successfully bedded two women literally back to back right before he was expecting her to be number three in as many days totally befuddles me. I mean, there wasn't even a whole day between dates; he barely had time to shower. Can you imagine telling your grandchildren how Grandma's such a swell gal. I slept with two women within just a couple of days of asking her to be my forever and she was totally cool with that. But I loved her the most, so Grandma won. I don't know how he is going to weather the storm on this one even in his personal or professional life. He seems completely unaware that there was anything wrong with his behavior. It would be one thing if he simply said to Susie, I'm so sorry you feel that way, but I did what I did for whatever reason. If you can't live with that, I get it. But for him to tell her it's her fault for his behavior because she didn't tell him not to behave that way is just whack. You would think common sense alone would be enough for him to simply know that his "special" girl would not care to be third in his Hat Trick.

Well, I'm in Northeast PA and the people here seem completely unaware that there is a T in Scranton or Nanticoke. But they also think the trees are between the two and the four. So I've learned to keep my twitching under control when I hear people speaking like that. At this point, however, I would really like to obliterate the word LIKE from all of these dimwits' vocabularies as well as Clay-en's.

I'm just glad to be rid of FakeFace and Taysha.

And my big question was, did somebody change the sheets?

Thanks so much for the IG recaps, Del. I delight in seeing them erode right before my eyes.

Can you please update periodically? My old computer cannot provide a secure connection when I click on it.

From my understanding, Joe did move to LA and was there with her for a bit of time. He just decided, though, that Chicago is where he wants to be. She won't even give Chicago a try. Her story is her family is out there. I personally believe she's still hoping for an extension of her 15 minutes and she'll somehow get "discovered" for something or other if she stays in LA long enough. Call it done, you two. Joe is never going to be okay in LA and she will never be okay in Chicago.

It's one thing for Mike to be on the hook for Natalie. But I think it's quite another for him to be on the hook for ALL of her living expenses if she chooses to live elsewhere. I would think he could say, I can provide her a roof over her head in my home and if she chooses otherwise, that should be on her.

Although, they are now divorcing.

Well, Jennifer Aniston wants to host The Bachelor.

Katie had way too much work done on her teeth. And perhaps she had it done too close to the time of filming and she hadn't adjusted to them yet or they simply just don't fit in her mouth correctly. Weird.

I'm fairly certain Chris had that patented and took that saying with him.

Her clenched jaw speaking drives me absolutely batty. I cannot even get past that enough to see if there's anything likable at all about her.

As a court stenographer who often takes testimony through translation, I can assure you that Natalie would be a nightmare interpreter for me. She is not fluent enough in English to begin with and her accent is even worse She might do well enough as an interpreter for a company that employed a lot of Ukranians or a hospital emergency department, but that's about it. But she would need to live where there is a high concentration of her people to have any kind of real job in it. But her dreams of wanting to work in film or on TV.....NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. Way too much competition among young pretty girls with degrees and clean English.

I read that they're going to film Michell's season over the summer because she didn't want to miss any more time from her teaching job.

Good for Katie. It's not like they're actually leaving the property and going out in public. I remember an interview with Olivia (pretty sure) that she financed $40,000 for a wardrobe to be on the show. They apparently supply all of their own clothes. That is simply nuts. So I totally cry major foul when the guy comes in for their one suitcase when they get dumped on the dates. All those broads have, I would say, at least a dozen gowns with them. There's no way they're cramming that all into one suitcase. And that carnival would have been a much better group date. I guess I just feel for the crew that had to set up that whole thing all for only two people to enjoy.

Funny how Ben's scoop collars annoys me as well. I even said out loud last night, Ben, those collars just do not work for you.

As I recall, she ditched Benoit at the Winter Games and he left. But then he made contact with her either -- I can't be absolutely positive if she made contact with him back home or they decided at the reunion to give it a go. But there was no engagement as part of Winter Games.

She acts like a giddy 15-year-old schoolgirl. I hope he ditches her ass soon and she'll have wasted this opportunity for nothing and won't likely get another shot.

Being a stenographer myself, we have a saying; Verbatim if you hate 'em.

I think you're right. It seems to be the theme this season what with Libby and OnDraaaay on Moldova, Tania and Syringe in SA, Angela back in Nigeria. I can assure you if the kids weren't involved, we would be in SamWa this season as well. If he can't even handle shoes, I wouldn't care to accompany him anywhere where masks are currently required -- and I am total anti-mask -- but not exactly given much choice right now.

So Tom got blocked on all avenues to contact Darcey so he has no other choice but to go see her in person. Did he ever actually consider calling her from a different phone number? Idiot.

If this were July, it would be a different story. I'd plant my butt on a floating mat and float all day in a pool with cocktails. I'd rather enjoy that. But alas, it is March and 30ish degrees. At least there is outdoors endlessly walking the dog and no chance of that being taken away. But again, 30ish degrees.
