stunned when they see the scar on his forehead

I haven’t been watching this season but thought I’d check in on y’all. Seems either pretty boring or annoying af so far from what I’ve read. No one made a Harry Potter reference?

[Kiss my mutt]

Peter is such a runtelldat. He needs to just chill. He’s making it harder on the girls than it needs to be. He has no emotional intelligence. 

[EllenB]

It's scary that someone so incredibly stupid is allowed to fly a plane.

[tennisgurl]

Is Peter literally six? He keeps tattling on different girls to each other.

That's it exactly! He is a kindergartner tattling. 

[Ripley68]

Tammy....No!!!!  I do appreciate Peter telling Crazlie that it's just going to get harder and basically if she can't handle it, she needs to go.  But, he needs to stop running to them with questions. At least he didn't call Tammy out in front of everyone.  oooo, Kelsie and neither Victoria got the rose...and cue McKenna to start having a melt down too.

[EllenB]

Ooh, Krazy Kelsey didn't get the date rose!  Get the mops!

[JenE4]

Kelsey said she’s falling in love and didn’t even get the rose. Somehow Hannah said/did something that’s more expressive of their growing feelings?! Hmm. 

[Ripley68]

Kelly looks like such an adult compared to all the other women there.

She is sooo not into this - or are they just editing it that way?  hmmm They are just so uncomfortable around each other - but than she actually seems to act like an adult (except for the bachelor hug - which is the worst looking in bachelor history)

I hate these new agey dates.   I’d just laugh and wouldn’t be able to take it seriously.   And I wouldn’t be stripping down either, even if I looked like Kelly.

Kelly is so over him. She goes up in my esteem immediately. 

[tennisgurl]

 Kelly is utterly in shock to see a lizard! In the jungle!!!!

[JenE4]

These traditional, cultural, spiritual ceremony dates are always my favorite. Well, the 2:1 someone left alone to die is really my favorite. But this is my Right Reasons type favorite because it’s interesting how the two people on the date read into it and what it means for their relationship. Unfortunately for Peter, Kelley is here for the Wrong Reasons. She has no interest in him—she doesn’t even have any interest in the travel. She sighed over the idea of having to go on this date in the pre-interview.

There were some really nice swimsuits and they all looked very nice but Victoria F has a smokin' body!

Madison looked amazing too, she had some serious abs. You can tell she was an athlete. 

[Ripley68]

ooooh, I like her calling him out as an immature idiot

[Kendra143]

Run Kelly run! You are so much more mature than Peter. He’s like a belligerent toddler with her - he’s not listening to anything she has to say. OMG

[b2H]

She’s calling him out on his BS.  He definitely has focused more on the drama and not on the relationships that might have value.

She should go home herself on principle.  She will get more self-respect.  She will accept the rose, but she should not.

[tennisgurl]

Wrong reasons you doofus! Wrong reasons! Honestly, Kelly is right about everything, and seems way too mature for all of this, but she is clearly not the final girl. She can see how ridiculous all of this is.

[rebel2u]

Watching Kelley, I wonder--Are they contractually obligated to give The Bachelor Handshake?

Did Kelley just say "cut it in the butt"?

Is that similar to "nip it in the bud"?

Edited February 4, 2020 by rebel2u

[JenE4]

I don’t know which is more shocking: that he offered Kelley the rose or that Kelley accepted it. She should have said no. He’s obviously not the man she’s looking for. Peter isn’t “one half of a mature power couple.” Listen to the candles!

[Kiss my mutt]

Kelly acts like she’s above it all, yet here she is. And she got a frickin rose. I liked her until she started acting too cool for school. I have to remind myself she probably has a card table she works at lawyering in her daddy’s office. 
Kelsey looks like she’s 35 but acts 15. What does she do for a living?

Why yes, yes she did. She also said she didn't know what a shaman is. No one here is playing with more than five or six brain cells, if that many.

Kelley also looks old enough to be Peter's mother. And that's not a slam on Kelley.

[EllenB]

Bitch is crying AGAIN, and it's so freaking calculated this time.

Oh, two seconds later, dry eyes.  Who'd have guessed?

Amen. I'd want a refund if I saw he was piloting some flight I was booked on.

[Adeejay]

I believe the reason Peter gave Kelley the rose is because he likes a challenge. After all this was the same lady who said in an interview that she wasn't emotionally invested, because he was dating other women, so she might as well just stick around and have some fun.

[saber5055]

WTH. Did he just pull a rose out of his ass?

[EllenB]

I'm beginning to think Peter's scar is from a lobotomy.

[tennisgurl]

Wait she gets a rose just for crying to Peter?!? Since when is that a freaking thing? Why do they keep changing the rules?!?

[Ripley68]

Yeah, that wasn't a producer set up at all.

[tennisgurl]

This is awkward...allow me to make it MORE awkward!

[rebel2u]

Peter's thinking:  "The more they fight for time with me, the more they want me!"

Reality:  The more the girls fight for time with him, the longer they get to stay and the more IG followers they get

Edited February 4, 2020 by rebel2u

[SallyAlbright]

So he was basically just complaining that Kelley hasn't put out yet, right? Run, girlfriend. 

[Adeejay]

Talk about awkward. Those ladies looked as though they wanted to tear Kelsey to pieces.  Peter just keeps digging these holes.  Clearly, he didn't learn from the Alayah debacle.

[tennisgurl]

I wouldn’t be surprised if a bunch of girls just stormed out. I mean, I know you gotta do what you gotta do to get those IG followers, but this is getting ridiculous. 

[Kiss my mutt]

Ha! Peter just happens to have a rose on his person at all times? I know a lot of this is scripted but you’d at least think they’d Be a little smoother in concealing it. 
 

I’m surprised the red head woman is still there. Have they even said more than two words to each other. I have no sense about her. 

[tennisgurl]

Who is gonna get attacked first, Peter or Kelsey?

[Adeejay]

Peter is such a coward. He didn't want to face the ladies, so he called off the cocktail party. 

[EllenB]

I never thought I'd say this about any Bachelor, but Peter makes me miss Ben Flubnuts.

[DEL901]

The Alaya debacle 2.0.    The idiot never learns.... and he is too much of a coward to face the fall out so he cancelled the cocktail party.  

[JenE4]

Peter is in Villa Escondida. Paradise is at Playa Escondida. This probably doesn’t have any special connection, lol.

Oh, Peter! Way to make it harder on Kelsey with the girls by giving her a rose. If you haven’t figured this out by now, this is a flock of middle school mean girls! Now they’re going to see her exactly as they did when you gave Aliyah the rose! Freaking idiot. If I were Kelsey, I would have said to hold it until the rose ceremony and it will be our Rosa Escondido! (I don’t think that translation really works but apparently escondido means secret and I needed to work that in somehow.)

The swarm of mean girls was ready to march in there and demand that Peter rescind his rose. Peter obviously knows a shitstorm is a brewing so he cancels the party.  
Mykenna is now having a “mental breakdown” because apparently this was her only chance to make him realize how fabulous she is. If he feels so little regard for you that he’d otherwise send you home, it’s too late to win him over. Not to mention, the existence of Kelsey is the only thing keeping you from being “#1 unstable crying bachelorette.”

[nutty1]

I’m not loving Peter as the Bachelor, but I’d bet anything these things are NOT his decision.  

[tennisgurl]

Peter is such a loser, changing his mind based on whoever he talked to last, changing the rules all of the time, and being too much of a coward to talk to the women in person. He is also so deep into this drama that we hardly see any other girl who isn’t crying and talking to Peter about each other.

Tammy, lol.  

[tennisgurl]

This all feels so fake, even more than usual. There is always producer manipulated drama and emotions, but you can straight up see the strings this season. It’s not fun, it’s just unpleasant to watch. I don’t even know how much of this is Peter and his bad choices, and how much is the producers.

“I can’t be sent home over this....I gave up my whole life to be here”....omg, if this is true, you have to run fast and run far, straight to a therapist.  

Edited February 4, 2020 by DEL901

[Kiss my mutt]

Well, that all backfired on Tammy. 

[EllenB]

Ugh, my ride on the Tammy Train was short.  Back to Natasha and maybe Madison for the win*.

*Next Bachelorette, not Peter the Poop.

[SallyAlbright]

I kind of think Peter and Kelsey are perfect together. Both immature, emotional and needy. 

[tennisgurl]

Oh lord guys, Tammy “isn’t here to make friends.” Well Tammy, it’s been real, my time on your team has ended as soon as it started. 

[saber5055]

Ha ha ha. No cocktail party? Then make your own!

Blond chick steals him.

"Next!"
