S16.E09: Week 9

[saber5055]

Bennett and Noah continue to confront one another on the impromptu two-on-one date; JoJo Fletcher explains to the men that a rose this week will be their ticket to a hometown date with Tayshia; Adam Hambrick performs.

I hope it's okay that I started this thread. I needed some place to tell Bennett to STFU. He's been a favorite of mine, but holy cow, the boy needs to just stop.

[alexa]

Noah clearly sounded like the nicer person here.  The fact she needs to think about it is scary.  His emotional intelligence is obviously higher as well. Lol

[Ripley68]

I lover her dress!!!  But ala Sharlene....she needs to pull her hair back.  Once again, I really like how she tells the people her reasoning.

[saber5055]

I hope when she comes back from walking Bennett out, she walks Noah out.

[tennisgurl]

Yeah I’m sure this is how she wants to teach her future children about emotional intelligence. Through passive aggressive condescending prop comedy. 

[EllenB]

Buh-bye, you pretentious shit.

That’s what I was thinking... although if she only keeps one, Noah is the right one.... over Bennett, not to be final 1 of ever 4.   

[Kiss my mutt]

Bennett can’t believe he got dismissed, love it! He’s like wait wut? You can tell he’s not used to being turned down which is exactly why he needed this to happen. I’m happy with Tayshia’s decision though it would have been fun to watch the other guys turn on him if he stayed. 

[alexa]

She actually wonders if she made the right choice with Bennett?  Would she really want to be with someone like that?  

[Ripley68]

Bwah ha ha... Love she smacked man child down.  Wish she had walked him out too.

[saber5055]

Noah is such a tool, downing a whole pack of Tic Tacs to get his breath ready for a make-out session. And his SE grin, like Woo hoo, I won. Good on Tayshia for telling him to wipe it. I didn't like her saying she couldn't give him the rose RIGHT NOW. WTH girl, send his ass home too.

I think Noah just got a stay of execution, not a free pass.   It is just a matter of time until he gets his walking papers.  

PS. Just checked the PVR and next week is TMTA on Monday

For some reason, from behind, I noticed how it drew focus to her ass. It must be a coincidence!

[alexa]

I actually kind of don’t like how she is acting like she is their mother.  Most of the time when there are people not getting along, they just don’t get along and carry on.  She asked for the meeting for drama, and to try to look like she is above all that....yet she is okay with keeping people around that clearly have issues.  I just don’t think this needed to happen in this way.

[saber5055]

"Cheers to seeing you guys" --TM Tayshia

(meaning all you posters here.)

[tennisgurl]

She is clearly over both those guys, Noah won’t be around much longer I don’t think, especially with a lot of strong competition. Bye bye boys. 

[DEL901]

Red flag...Zac sees “ her completing him”.   Back away Taishis. 

[FlyingEgret]

I can't believe Noah didn't take the mustache socks...

[saber5055]

Who was the guy with the one-week anniversary cake? I like him.

[DEL901]

I wonder where Brendan’s hairline is without the comb forward. 

[Ripley68]

I know it's part of it, but I hate when they make out with multiple contenders.  That picture Zac gave her was awesome.  Nice it wasn't one of the more weddingish looking ones.

I really don't like the way Brendan dresses.  Damar on the other hand always looks sharp.

 

[tennisgurl]

That picture was cute, points to Zac! I hope that we can go back to fun again now.

That has to be in their contracts.

[JenE4]

Jojo didn’t even clink a glass to announce it’s rose ceremony time? I bet she’s going to flub the line, Tayshia, gentlemen, this is the final rose. Bring back Harrison!

That's Riley.  I like him, too.

[saber5055]

Blake got a rose. UGH.

My last rose went to Spencer. WTH Noah. That has to be TPTB's decision.

[Kiss my mutt]

Ivan is SAFE! I don’t see what she likes about Blake though 

[tennisgurl]

You, JoJo, are no Chris Harrison. 

[saber5055]

Is she just keeping the dregs so her final choice will look better by comparison?

[Crashcourse]

I hope to see Demar and Spencer on BIP.

[Ripley68]

That was a short hug with Ivan, and a not happy look at the last rose.  She is not happy with the choice she is making (being forced to make) with this rose.  How can she get rid of Damar!!!!  So....Once she gets rid of Blake and manchild, we'll be down to the ones she's obviously interested in.

[DEL901]

Noah?  Really?   Although, at this point, there are 1 or 2 front runners and the rest are fodder since, unlike Clare, the lead just can’t sent them all home.  

[tennisgurl]

She’s sending so many good guys home, how much of this is producer mandated? Or does she just have questionable taste?

[JenE4]

Goddamn it, JoJo! You forgot to tell Tayshia and the gentlemen that it was the final rose! You forgot 1/3 of your lines! Then you come out and say, “Guys...”?! Please! Your journey ends here, JoJo. It ends here.

[saber5055]

Ben gets screen time AGAIN? *yawn*

[DEL901]

Zac is a little over emotional considering he is one of seven.   Although, he has had a rough journey with the brain tumour leading to addiction and now recovery.  And reality tv dating.  

[DEL901]

Ben’s a little aggressive .....

[tennisgurl]

I can’t believe hometowns are next week! 

[Crashcourse]

I think the last thing Zac needs is to be on a reality tv show.   He seems too vulnerable (or "vunnerable" if you're on reality tv). 

[Ripley68]

Man....they are sweating!!!!! Can they really not find some more,,,,,exciting....challenging...things to do?  massages, airplane ride, atv's in the desert, there are a ton of things to do in Palm Springs. When they were sitting there sweating is the best I've seen Ben look.  He just gives me weird vibes.

Especially that last one.

He is strange....and she seems to like men with multiple issues. Somehow I think he fits the bill. 

[saber5055]

The camera cut away when Ben was trying to put the scooter note's sticky tape somewhere, anywhere, onto Tayshia. And yeah, he got pretty aggressive with some stupid cardboard pinatas. Imagine if you made him mad ... yikes.

Ben's over-dinner conversation = RED FLAGS!

It wasn’t  just the piñata although that was part of it... he was also a little too much in the chasing of the clues.   He didn’t get her input on things.    He just took charge.

Damn, this season has deeper conversations than all the previous seasons put together.

[CraftyHazel]

Failed suicide attempts in 2018 and 2019, and they put him in such an emotionally charged situation?!

[tennisgurl]

God these dates, I’ve come up with better lockdown dates over Zoom in the last few months!

We called it. Thank god my provider is acting up and my stream keeps cutting in and out.  But yes,  he has solidified a hometown date because she seems to like tragedy .......and strange mouths.
