Yes!!!

What do you mean cancelled the B'ette for the year? No, he didn't; not at all. In the article, it gives the exact words he said to Rose: 'I'm very interested in you. Like even today, right, you know, the whole dancing thing on stage and everything, I was thinking about you". The women danced on stage, which is what he was talking about, and he said not one word about the time he was specifically dancing with Carolina. She reminds me so much of Rachel, as in Gabby and Rachel.

I guess I'm in the minority, but what David did was def cheating. I am assuming that something physical has happened between him and Madison. If not, then I don't view it as cheating, just as him being unfaithful to the spirit of the thing but not truly unfaithful. Sure, Michelle had frozen him out, but he was still married and obligated to what he signed up for. If he didn't want it anymore, he could either try to talk to her in private about making an "arrangement", end the marriage, or wait until the 8 weeks were over. If it hadn't gotten physical, I can't see him going through with all the protracted and in-depth lying and cover-ups. He freaking lied big time to a pastor and tried to convince his cousin to lie for him. He's a sh*t and not the great guy he seems convinced that he is. What Madison sees in him is beyond me, especially once she watches the show and actually sees his insane level of dishonesty.

Thank you for saying this!

It was interesting to see how quickly it went downhill when she was talking about that whole "validating" thing with Mason. Yeah, I felt like Meg insisting that all was lost because she'll never know if he would have chosen her, is a bit shortsighted. I don't know what to think about him. At first I was very against him, with his "So what is wrong with you?" opener, and the other comment (I think to Lauren?) about now that you're 30 you're old. But he really did seem to grow and become self-aware. So I'm conflicted...but unfortunately I predict a regression to his old, comfortable way, which is bad news for Lauren. Bingo. That's what has made me suspicious. And his denials weren't very adamant, like mine would have been in the same situation. It's also interesting, although they very rarely show it, to just see a first meeting go wrong or have no spark. When they keep showing up ones that were fireworks on the first meet, it makes it hard to figure what it looks like when a first meeting is bad or only meh. I gotta disagree. The bad thing about one giant thread is that if you are not watching at the start when everyone else is, then you basically can't read any comments at all, because otherwise you are reading along with whatever episode you just finished and then bam, the next comment you read is someone commenting about something wild from the next episode that you haven't seen yet.

It seems like Brittany expected Devin to be just fine with her still having what sounds like an active attraction to women, and her answers were less than reassuring when he had asked about basically whether she was done with that. So I don't blame him for his reaction. Really loved the conversation with Molly and Lauren

The whole Dave-Molly-Lauren who-is-#1 thing is confusing. I don't think he told Molly she was his #1, but I also don't think she made it up...I think she thought that's what he was saying. And I don't think Molly knew that Lauren is Dave's other girl...I just don't think she would have made that comment in front of Lauren if she had known.

OMG, the couple at the reveal were sooo cute! I believe it was genuine, and I hope they can keep that spark.

They are kinda quirky, so I hope they work well together!

I agree! They'll show one of them, then when they show the next guy, I have to really try to figure out if it was that same guy or another guy!

OMG, totally forgot about the conversation in their kitchen between Juan and Karla, and he said something about the stories she will someday tell her children. Not our children...your children. Talk about showing your cards! He is totally checked out.

I'm so glad you said something about this. I couldn't figure out why that reader woman seemed so off, right from the start. She didn't have the vibe/aura of a reader, she didn't speak like a reader, and she had no insights (she basically just used what Juan said, rather than the cards, it seemed). Great catch! Wonder if Karla was told to say that, since whatever woman off the street actress they got to play the role of the reader, was really awful. I loved the "divorce paper"!! And I genuinely think he was confused that there was only one piece of paper in the folder, with nowhere to sign. I don't know how he received the folder, or why he hadn't looked closely at the contents, but the way that he repeatedly asked her to sign, even when she pointed out it was only one page of a longer document and there was no place to sign, made me think he genuinely thought she should sign anyway. And I don't remember hearing her say anything about getting a lawyer to look over the real papers if she had them...in fact, she kept saying that if all the papers were there, she'd sign it, and I kept yelling "You better not, not without a lawyer taking a look!" These false perceptions on the part of Ikechi have been going on the whole time, and I really wished that Pastor Cal had called him out on it far more than he did, when Ikechi was slamming Emem for asking him to move in on the honeymoon (normal protocol for this show) and for trying to make the marriage work regardless of who it was to (expected protocol for this show). I gotta disagree. When they replayed the actual wedding and conversation before his admissions, she was sooo giggly and excited. I think he was exactly her physical type and that fooled her, until he took his hair down from the bun and also started exposing his true self at that time...a sloppily dressed, underemployed smoker living in a 20s bro-looking "apartment" in his parents' basement. That tidbit on the Afterparty was really revealing, and added further to David's sketchiness The whole time, he has been saying that he received the food picture text, and sent the "eat you up" text, when he was out with Allen and Madison. And while that technically may have been true, David apparently left out the part where Karla and Madison ditched the guys (I guess at some point Karla and Juan joined them) to go dancing, and he joined them. The disappearing to look for Madison's phone with David, rather than with Karla who's the one Madison came with, is soooo sketchy. And Madison storming away from the dinner table for no significant reason other than her extreme discomfort that the conversation was veering dangerously towards exposing her, was basically a public admission of guilt!

From having seen quite a few shows with such dying-help situations, often the person's body and mind are in an altered state, and all they can do is process the most basic level of survival actions. Amen to that. By stating the requirement for $1M, it completely sends off the scam warning bells, especially since the show gave no indication that he was doing anything already to achieve anything towards accomplishing what he can prior to receiving $1M.

I watched the most recent Cold Case Files episode, "No Known Enemies", and was once again astounded at the lack of critical thinking demonstrated by supposedly competent and seasoned detectives. Widow is murdered in her home, body is found burned elsewhere, no obvious suspects or even possibilities. A few weeks before the murder, her purse was stolen from her house one day when she was gardening and left the side door open (and I think some hidden money was also taken), and also her spare house key that she kept outside was stolen. When the next door neighbor was questioned about the murder, he gave as his alibi that he had his daughter with him that weekend (visitation in a divorce) and they spent most of the weekend at his mother's house. Oh, and he said a gas can was stolen from his porch (but nothing else was). Now I'm no trained detective, and don't even play one on TV, but the first thing I thought of with the gas can thing is that he was trying to get out in front of the situation of them finding his fingerprints/DNA on the gas can when they would eventually find it having been used in the fire. And who else other than a next-door neighbor has such a prime opportunity to see a side door open and go in to steal something. So if I were a detective, maybe I would look into this guy a little further? But nope, didn't even check his alibi, such as it was. So five years later the case is cold, and the detective in his voiceover says that he always kept the case file on his desk, but cases go cold when there are no more leads to check...uh, my man, you didn't even finish checking the leads you were handed on a platter! So....when a cold case unit got the case after five years, they found that the neighbor's life had been falling apart back then, and he was a broke druggie (who would have needed money for drugs, duh). They also checked his alibi, and he in fact did not have his daughter that weekend (the ex-wife kept meticulous custody records!). (I think there was also something that fell apart with his alibi regarding his mother, but I can't recall the deetz.) Of course he turned out to be the perp...could have closed the case a lot sooner if the first detective had done his job!

He was the best! Somehow he managed to not make it all about himself, which is what a lot of the guests do, and it didn't sound like he was providing advice from on high, which a lot of the guests do and Keisha def does sometimes. So before he admitted calling her an asshole, he had just been saying how he has never been disrespectful to her! Pastor Cal needed to say, flat out, that if you are being that dishonest and delusional (because I genuinely think Ikechi believes that he has been respectful the whole time) about something that was said with witnesses, how much more disrespect has he been doing in private? Then when Ikechi was incredulous that she asked him to move in after knowing him for 4 days and held it against her as something ridiculous, Pastor Cal should also have come down on him way harder, in terms of that's the entire premise of the show, with dozens and dozens of people having already done that. He tried out for the show before, so surely he knows that's the protocol, so how on earth could he hold that against Emem. And the fact that he held something so normal and legit against her so drastically, again calls into question every one of his "here's what's wrong with Emem" things that Ikechi has concluded.
