S11.E04: What Happened Last Night?

[Hangin Out]

Damn.  Just told the husband wish we went to Mexico on the honeymoon.  In those days, most honeymooners went to the Poconos, Pa.

[Kira53]

In the preshow Bennet had on a very dramatic shirt that looked expensive.  He looked very good in it.  He must be spending Amelia money already.  He has great hair and good bone structure.  PJ Dress! 

I love it that everybody is really trying to see the positive and that there is a lot of possible good relationships to come. So far I really like everybody even Brett.  Henry is a bit of a dip or a drip by being so much the person that struggles to just respond to other people. But for now I like him better as super quiet man than to be like his father a dope.  .  I think it's interesting that they all go to the same place and have some interactions with each other Take care being too much pressure on the new marriage.  It really looks like they took them to a nice resort that's going to offer a lot of interesting experiences. Henry my benefit from having new experiences.  Yes, everyone seems to want to give their marriage a good try and want to learn about their new mate.  I'm really enjoying this season and look forward to seeing how things evolve and things the devolve.  I know it can't all turn out right but I'm enjoying the honeymoon period.

Wake up Henry!  This guy needs a few drinks.  It’s Mexico.

Yes, but he has never been out of the country before! I'm "almost" getting the Katie attitude from Christina toward Henry. " I've traveled all over the world and know people all the different countries and you haven't left the US."

It's too early too tell.

 

[Kiss my mutt]

Henry is definitely awkward but I wonder how much of that is just because he’s being filmed. I know, as an introverted person, if a camera goes on I’m very uncomfortable,  but then again, he signed up for it. Maybe his friends pressured him and he’s one of those people pleasers. 
I wonder about the dynamic Henry and his father had growing up. That man is obnoxious. Way too hyped up. 
 

Maybe Amelia and Bennett can compromise by having one biological and one adopted child. They are a quite a bit extra for me but they seem like nice people. 

[answerphone]

Some of those family members would scare me off!!

Unfiltered: Bennett, Henry, Cal, JamieO.

Bennett in a Dots and Boxes inspired suit. Has nice white teeth.

Cal called out for doubting Bennett’s casting.

Henry looks every bit like the hospital staff recruiter that he is...dressed appropriately, reassuring eyes, nods when he should speak.
Between Bennett and JamieO he doesn’t get a word in edgewise.
Henry kept removing his wedding band...not so subtle message to the audience?
Henry’s mean gal friend Kristen got discussed...that should make her happy to get attention.
The bearded gnus In Shakespearean veils got their moment, too.

I have a friend who's a journalist and travels a lot.  He said that, if you're leaving the US, NEVER unpack.  Leave the suitcase on the luggage rack and inspect the legs of the rack several times a day for bed bugs.  If possible, spray an insecticide around the legs.  No matter how nice the resort is, inspect the mattress too.

Amelia and Bennett look like characters on a 1970’s scripted tv show . That pajama dress 🤦‍♀️. I’d already be divorced . 

I don’t know why they do unfiltered first.... I can not figure out what Bennet has on. It’s polka dot dress ,has a sequined something on the pleated bodice  and a red/ white/ blue button on. I don’t believe that little box he lives in has closets for dresses.

My gosh, could he be any more lethargic? What a lump! They are so awkward together. I don't like how Christina thinks she's oh so worldly and she's going to teach Henry all things travel-related. She's bragging at the family brunch about traveling first class so I cackled when I saw her sitting in coach with the rest of the poor schlubs.

[qtpye]

We have already talked about how pretty Karen and her mother are...I just want to add that her nephew is adorable.

Amelia’s brother is also kinda cute.

Bennett is actually pretty good looking if you are into his type. Nice tan, teeth, and bone structure. He was rocking that Dr. Huxtable sweater.

That night dress is NOT a panty dropper.

I am really digging the vibe this season. I always thought NOLA had some of the nicest people in the country. Even villain Brett acted nicely.

I hate that they have brunch with the in-laws the day after the wedding. The wedding day is probably the most stressful of their lives, why put them in another stressful situation right away? (Other than for the drama of the show I suppose.) The questions that are being asked by the families like religion and whether they want children should be discussed between the spouses before the families. 

I believe in the past they sent the couple out for brunch with some friends/family - but as a couple.  (Which meant that one family member had to take the role of the asshole who asked, "Did you consummate the marriage?"

Yep. That’s mine and my husband’s view too. Child free by choice - the world is overloaded with humans and we don’t want to contribute anything more to that burden. 

I guess you and your husband weren't matched by experts then 😄   I know Bennet and Amelia are both "quirky", but when one person has always wanted to have kids and the other is ethically opposed to having them - I'm no expert, but I'd say that beats "they're both quirky" .  Of course, I've never seen the inside of their (or your!) underwear drawer, so that could change the outcome of so many things . . .

That 180 by Bennett on the kid issue made the whole thing seem staged.

I thought the way his sister brought it up was weird to begin with. It was a total non sequitur just on the word "kid," like she was just waiting for the slightest opportunity to spring it on Amelia. I didn't get that sense from Bennett though (and thought his explanation was sincere), so I think his sister was just completely hamfisted about it and maybe did it on her own.

Aside from Henry and Christina being uncomfortable to watch (though Christina was better than last week), I'm liking this group much better than last season thus far. Even Brett hasn't been as bad as I thought he'd be (yet). I think he genuinely likes Olivia as a person, but I have no sense yet about whether he is attracted to her.

I adore Miles, and Miles and Karen together. So glad she seems to have gotten over her pre-wedding freakout.

Brett's comments about Olivia feel forced to me.

I didn't get that feeling surprisingly, and I watched him real closely.  He seemed genuinely happy with the experts' choice for him.  And he was honest with Olivia's parents about his attitude towards religion.  Considering how strongly some people feel about the subject, his answer could have created a very tense atmosphere.  But surprisingly, he said they had already talked about it and Olivia was OK with him being agnostic.  I'm wondering if her ambivalent feelings about children will be a problem.  Olivia is already 30 and Brett a few years older.  She wants to wait a few years before trying, if at all?  Hope he's on the same page with her about that.  The experts can ignore some things when trying to match people up, but if one spouse wants kids and the other doesn't, that is a deal breaker.

I know I'm going to get reamed for this, but IMO Olivia could have put a little more thought into her choice of attire for her honeymoon night.  Even though they weren't planning to have sex, her pajama selection was just blah.  Amani wore a simple pink (I think) full slip, and it was very attractive.   

Nothing attractive about yet more air time for Brett's obnoxious brothers.  He has a sister too.  Why can't we see her for once?  And Henry's pop....what an a-hole.  Please, show....no more of these loathsome relatives.

Me! I leave my clothes in the suitcase. And for all you fussbudgets and germaphobes, I stuff my shoes in sideways or upside down on top. No shoe bags. Oh the horror!

Henry should not be on this show. How the hell was someone this boring cast? He is almost mute. Or is he a robot? Zero personality. I actually thought Cristina was trying to get something, ANYTHING! from him, but he almost always answers with yes or no and little elaboration while staring down. if she didn’t talk, it would be complete silence. It’s almost frustrating watching him - I keep waiting for some sign of life, but so far, nothing......This one is DOA......

I guffawed at Bennett’s dress. I can’t help it, I love their interactions. Ditto Woody and Amani. They are still my favorites. Her calling him on the smacking and “heavy flirting” (“I’m not mad at it” ha!). I love her. Good for Woody for getting therapy. I hope this lasts. I’m going to be so bummed if it goes sideways with them.

Waiting for the shoe to drop with Poor Olivia. This can’t last, right? Brett will be showing his true colors soon enough. And where did he get that old timey suitcase? I guess he doesn’t need a rolling one because his muscles are so big???

So far, Miles and Karen are boring to me. I did like her hat. They will probably stay married and have minimal drama. They are here to bolster the success rate.....

Just think, by this point last season, Meka was already pissed at Michael and sleeping in a separate room. It’s already a better season!

Why wouldn’t he be? Someone who dates that many people is probably not that picky. At the very least, he appreciates that she is a nice person. But I don’t think this leopard is going to change his spots any time soon. I still predict heartbreak for our 70 and Sunny Gal.

Yes! I was just glad that there were no angry couples before they even got off the plane this time. I was about to say that I hope these feelings continue, but this is only the honeymoon.  I'm sure things will start to break down some as the couples interact and get to know each other better.

Absolutely agree - a couple has to have the same feelings about wanting/not wanting kids and that is a prime compatibility factor 

[Meowwww]

I watched too much Hotel Nightmares to ever put my stuff in a drawer at a hotel.  Packing cubes for the win!  But I do hang my clothes up in the closet. 
Hubby and I thought Bennet was wearing a robe on Unfiltered.  Bennet has a really attractive face.  He’s coming off much more deep and well-spoken than in his intro....he seemed like a dolt to me in the beginning. 
I feel like Henry’s dad has been “teasing” Henry since he was a kid, driving Henry back further into his shell.  “Teasing” isn’t the right word, nor is “mocking.”  
Loving Woody and Amani. 
ETA did Brett have a black eye at the morning brunch?  His right eye. 
Oh and....they blurred out Bennet and Amelia’s Corona but not Henry’s.

If his new wife ( already forgot her name) was smart, she’d see he is very nervous, and try to get him out of his shell.  Other than his shyness, he seems like a good guy.  That’s “if she’s interested”.

[Booger666]

Amani is gorgeous when she does her own makeup and looks more natural.  I really like her personality too.

When Bennett was in his dress and goes “I’m a carrot” I was terrified he was going to turn to Amelia and say “And you’re my future skin suit” afterwards.  It was a little too weird for me.

Traveling, luggage and bedbugs: NEVER put luggage under the bed.  If you are concerned it is best to not unpack and put your luggage in the bathtub.

Why on earth (unless producer required to create drama) would Bennett's sister bring up the having or adopting a kid issue?

That is none of her business.

Going out on a limb here, but I liked Brett this episode, and I liked the way Olivia told him his brothers were mean to her at brunch. I think she might understand their sarcastic wit.  LOL.

I don’t care what the experts or anyone else says about marriage.  If you know the person for two minutes or two years, you still don’t know them until you live together.  Then all the quirks come out.  Good or bad.  After one year of marriage, I said to myself “ is this it”? Meanwhile, we’ve been married forever.  Plus, these couples missed the thrill of courtship, where you can’t get enough of each other.  It’s the best time in your life, I think anyhow.  I still reminisce about those days .. so romantic.  Corny, I know, lol.

Yep .. good advice.  My niece took home a scorpion in her luggage.  I don’t unpack and close the zipper, then put it on one of those luggage racks.  I only hang dresses and the husbands jacket.

[bichonblitz]

Olivia doesn't want kids and Brett does. Isn't that one of the first qualifying questions these experts should ask? Olivia is confusing me because she told his parents she didn't want kids right away and wasn't sure if she was ever going to want them, then she told Brett she does not want kids. 

Oh, boy. I can't imagine how boring Henry must be in the sack. Although, my ex was a quiet guy and was dynamite in the sack. Certainly was not the reason we divorced! 😁 Maybe there is hope for Henry.

I brought home a snake one time. A baby snake, but still a snake and I'm near phobic. I discovered it when it came slithering down the stairs at me. I didn't sleep for days.

I have questions about Karen's hair (white woman here with standard issue white lady hair). I LOVED her braids. How long would it take for her to have those put in? I'm guessing she didn't do it herself but went somewhere to have them done. So the order of the day (after her wedding) was breakfast with Miles, brunch with her new in-laws then some time at a salon getting honeymoon hair? In addition to looking awesome would it also be pretty low maintenance on vacation where it would be getting wet all the time?

[Neurochick]

I loved Karen and Amani's vacation hair.  Beautiful.  

[Retired at last]

A few comments. . . I was going to ask why the cans Amelia and Bennet had were blurred, but someone upthread said they were Corona, so thanks.

I THINK Amani likes Woody, but her voice makes me nuts, plus I have NO idea what Woody was saying when he did that TH. I understood "journal," "airport", and "just keep on doing what I'm doing." That's it.  So Amani will take a bath with him, but no sex. 

I am really liking Karen and think that Miles is great. He and Bennett, to me, are the best looking. With Bennett, it is probably his hair, but in some shots he is really handsome. Not a fan of the fashion or sleep dresses. Amelia seems happy and her mouth wasn't so gapey this time. I think they will be fine. And if she wants to have a baby, he will capitulate.

I hope it was the dorky music and editing, but I agree that watching Henry and Christina is awkward and awful. She seems to have made him her project now since, I am not sure if you picked this up, but, apparently, he has never left the country and she has been everywhere.

I like Olivia, but I hope she doesn't turn into an Iris with her rules when they get home. Brett seems like he won't need much incentive to bail, even though he seems OK now. Merging spoiled pets will be interesting.

I also agree with many who said the forced individual in-law meetings were a bit much this soon. And I still don't like Henry's dad and think that his "teasing" is bordering on verbal abuse since Henry doesn't like it and it is cruel, not funny.

Those vacation shots look gorgeous. I am glad that Woody and Amani stopped by Miles' and Karen's room to say hi, but I hope they have alone time. I think they will.

His scenes seem choppy to me, like they've edited out some of his conversation. I have no doubt he's quieter, nervous, etc, but he may not be as quiet as they made him seem. They're pushing the 'awkward' thing with him big time. From the previews it sounds like he doesn't trust her, so things may change as we go along.

I agree that casting probably knew he would be good awkward TV but he is not nice. A nice person would make Christina feel comfortable. Yet she is the one getting the edit to make her appear rude while making every effort (to this point) to make Henry feel comfortable. I just don't see how Henry is a nice guy.

Yep, it stays in for a week if you want.  Low maintenance.  My girls get it done every time they go to Jamaica or Cancoon.  They also get colored beads put in here and there.  I love that look, besides I think Karen is gorgeous.  He is too.  P.s. I hate snakes too.  I live in the woods and it’s been known garden snakes have come into the homes.  I think I would have a heart attack.  I’d run out and go to a hotel until it was found.  Last year, I got bit by a little spider and got cellulitis and wound up in hospital for 8 days on penicillin.

Of course, I could be totally wrong and he could mean something else entirely.

I thought he pretty much said that was the reason.

[Madding crowd]

I think Bennet and Amelia look like brother and sister. FWIW Bennet, population is the US has been going down for awhile although adoption is always needed too.

I hated Christina throwing it in Henry’s face that he hasn’t left the country before. There are lots of reasons why people can’t or won’t travel mostly financial . I have a friend who never stops bringing up that she lived in France for two years and studied at the Sorbonne, I point out to her that most of us just didn’t have that kind of money.
