S24.E08: Week 8 - Hometown Dates

[JenE4]

This hometown date was crab rangoon! Epic! Standing ovation from the Wrong Reasons galley!

Victoria is straight up bonkers. She’ll be a hit in Paradise. Can’t wait to see which unlucky guy(s) she’ll turn on and storm away from.

[Kiss my mutt]

Please say they’re done done. She’s ratchet. 

[tennisgurl]

Lets see how Victoria manages to spin this into her being the victim!

[EllenB]

Victoria: "I'm trying so hard "

Bwahahaha!

She should get a deflector of the decade award.

[SallyAlbright]

...BUT DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT BREAK UP RELATIONSHIPS?! She is a master of deflection and nuts. He is stupid. 

[tennisgurl]

Victoria is truly turning into the Luke P of this season. Obviously kept around way past their expiration date because of the drama they stir up, even as it becomes terribly obvious that this person isnt fun trashy, but scary potentially abusive trashy.

Madison looks stunning. 

[tennisgurl]

"Victoria we have security here to  escort you off the premises due to the restraining order that Peter has filed against you."

[EllenB]

Victoria defines the old description of someone having shifty eyes.

[nutty1]

Did you notice how all the 3 girls greeted each other warmly? Then Victoria slipped in.  

[tennisgurl]

AHHHHHHHHHHH I WAS EVEN ROOTING FOR FREAKING KELLY OVER HER NASTY ASS!

[SallyAlbright]

Kelsey is probably watching this and thinking "THIS is what he chose over me that week?!"

 

[EllenB]

Whut.  Just WHUT.

[Riplet68]

The 3 brunnettes lhaving smokin bodies inthose outfits!  
 

AAAAHHHH!  He totally let little Peter pic.  There is no way he was gonna give up an opportunity to bump uglies with Victoria

[Thumper]

Is Victoria the female version of the “bad boy” some women can’t quit??? 

[Kiss my mutt]

Fuck! Victoria? You know he wants to hit it and quit it!

[SallyAlbright]

So dumb. I think this is why he will lose Madison, who seems to be the one he really wants. Think with your actual head, Peter! 

[b2H]

They closed-captioned so damn much with this show, would it have killed them to caption the reveal for Victoria??  It was totally unintelligible.

[nutty1]

There are no words. 
He just couldn’t pass up a night in the fantasy suite with Victoria. I hope she gives him cooties!

[JenE4]

Whaaaat?!? This is the most shocking rose ceremony in Bachelor History! Harrison didn’t even use it as a teaser!

[tennisgurl]

This really IS a Luke P scenario! He is just so hot for this horrible person that he is willing to ignore any of those obvious red flags. 

[Kiss my mutt]

Madison is a total cock block! Good for her!!

[JenE4]

Oh, damn, Mama Webber’s tearful “Bring her home!” is probably about bringing Vic to her home to make things right with her family.

“Crab rangoon!!!” needs to become Bachelor lexicon for something earth-shatteringly exciting.

There is a very famous viral tweet where somebody was mimicking Stephen A. Smith's style of speaking and decided to imitate what he thought Stephen would say at a P.F. Chang's:

I spent the entire first part of the episode thinking we were visiting Madison's family.  Now I'm reading that that was Hannah Ann's.  I am not kidding when I say I really don't know the difference.

Peter seems like he equates high drama and yelling and tears with a strong relationship, which is just not healthy. Its so early in this "relationship" it shouldn't be this hard! Hell, if your doing this even after years, its time to rethink some stuff! He seems like he really likes Madison the most, but she is way too low key and normal for that bullshit.

This is just ridiculous and, again, PETER SAW THIS EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN ON HIS HANNAH SEASON!!!

[nutty1]

So Maddie gives him an ultimatum. I wish she’d walk away and become the next Bachelorette.

What a manipulator Victoria is. Total reaction to deflect. She’s gross. 

She is well-practiced, having done this many times before, I’ll wager.

Me too. I find myself really liking her now. She and Victoria are like two different species. 

[Adeejay]

I knew Victoria wasn't going anywhere before the fantasy suites.  Let me see if I understand this.  Madison won't be sleeping with Peter and he is not allowed to sleep with any of the other women, either.  Ha! Ha! Ha!  Can't wait to see how this turns out.

[econ07]

So all those who said Hannah was being slut shamed ... you would say Peter is being slut shamed, correct?

She could be Katrina Badowski-Bukowski. That's epic crab ragoon!

[nutty1]

If he didn’t end up with Victoria, his F1 must be questioning her choice to be with him right about now.

And Victoria thinks the ultimatum is the worst.  Guess she never had the chance to issue one of her own, right??
It is a bit much for Madison to insist he not fool around with the others, but then again has she ever seen the show before this season?

I’m not slut shaming him. I’m saying he’s totally crazy!

He is that for sure.  And good to see Madison make him take his decision seriously.

I don't think it's unreasonable to say "if you want me, don't sleep with someone else days before you'd propose to me." It's unusual in the context of this show, but she also seems more normal than most of the contestants.

I think it's fair to tell him and then let him make the informed decision. It wouldn't be fair if she said it after he'd been on overnights, the way Luke P. did. It appears that she pulls him aside and tells him before the overnight dates, though, and I don't see anything wrong with that. If he doesn't like it, all he has to do is sleep with the other two and she can leave.

It all depends on how she handles it, when she gives the ultimatum, and where she falls in date order.  If shes last (which how could production not put her last), its too late. Also, as long as she doesnt equate him having sex with being a bad person.  Dont be accusatory and dont hold a past against someone.  If she says that shes not comfortable moving forward ifbhe had sex with others after telling het he lived her, thats fine. What Luke P did was way beyond that.

ETA:  I have never seen a lead be so blase about sending people home.  Even Arie got teary eyed on some of his.  Peter is just pretty much, “dont let the door hit you on the wsy out!”

Victoria is a deeply, deeply unpleasant person. She instantly turned defensive and bitchy and argumentative. Wow. 

This isn’t even bad acting. This is a full on case of borderline personality disorder. At least Kelsey can take a pill. Adderall is a good pill. This is a lifetime of misery for all involved. She doesn’t even try to be anything other than awful.

I’ve often wondered how the F1 accepts the fact that her fiancé slept with others within days of their proposal. It’s not normal, TV show or not. 
 

[Kiss my mutt]

I’m okay with slut shaming either sex. Totally. All. Right.

Me too.  Marriage is about loving your spouse above everyone else, and the degree to which these kids think they can sleep with one person one day, and propose to someone else within a day or two is bewildering.  They're just setting themselves up for constant questions going forward.

[Dr Epi]

Kelsey was a mercy kill, right? Peter knows Victoria is BSC and does not mind leading her on and going to the Fantasy suite, just to dump her.  But he did not want to break Kelsey’s heart any further? Otherwise there is no reason to dump Kelsey now and take Victoria. 
 

Except that Peter really seems to love the drama...

[Rebky]

Question. What happened to Pete's forehead? I obviously do not watch this show very closely.

We were wondering if it’s a bad rug??

[scarlettudor]

I am so amazed that these Bachelors/Bachelorettes kiss each others' upper lips instead of full kisses.  Peter and his girls are getting ready for fantasy dates and they still kiss upper lips?!

[Ms Blue Jay]

Nothing out of Victoria's mouth is genuine.  The whole thing with her family read as very staged to me.  I can't believe Peter would go along with all of that.  Maybe he wants to be an actor?

I think Victoria has a deal with the producers and is staging this entire drama to get more Instagram followers.  Let's hypothetically say for 1 second that she is nOT acting - then she would be 100% psychotic.  Come on.
