I've also known some women (of all body types) who refuse to wear any kind of dresses at all.

That's me, just call me Hillary Clinton with my pantsuits. LOL

Paul thinks his Mother isn’t going to like the getting married right away...wait until she hears they plan to get pregnant right away!

Oh goody, a reprise of the riveting stair climbing sequence. I'd forgotten. 

I totally don't get this format of theirs.  They spend a fortune sending producers over there / wherever, hiring sound people and cinematographers, and they must have hours of film they don't show, but instead keep doubling back. How many times have we seen, for example, Rachel standing in Paddington Station looking "alone"?  Just use more of the film you have, people.  Or maybe they are re-showing things a gazillion times for those of us who left the room for a second to get another bottle of wine and might have missed something?  Hard to figure.

[LilaFowler]

I have to continually remind myself that Paul is a 34-year-old man. This is a Norman Bates situation.

[Scarlett45]

Ok I have to eat my words. 

Paul is actually not bad looking!! He is the type of guy that would look much more handsome with an extra 10-15lbs to fill out his face a bit and nicer clothes (that fit). His facial structure is nice. 

[Armchair Critic]

"Mother"... shades of Norman Bates....

Paul, you are a grown ass man and last time I checked, adults didn’t need to ask permission from their mothers.

Remember he is a mama’s boy, he admitted it

Without that and the endless commercials, the show would be 15minutes long.

[Brooklynista]

Pole has to consult with his mother before deciding to expand his family? No marriage is going to work for him. Kreeny or any other wacky broad he chooses.

[AussieBabe]

Pole's mum is right. He does need to be able to take care of himself. RIght now, he's living with his mother and he's trying to bring a wife who wants to have a baby immediately. You might want to get your own home and be able to support said wife and baby FIRST.

How old is Karine?

[Neurochick]

Ugh, I’d forgotten about Ricky.

At least he looked cleaner this time! 

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh for crying out loud. She's not upset that she won't be at the wedding! She does not want you to get married at all!

Doesn’t she realize that his new wife will take good care of her in her old age? 

[Bubbacat]

Dang. I totally forgot about this live chat thread. I feel so behind. I'll catch up.

[Boofish]

Ricky Fannypack is so sad and delusional I feel bad for laughing at him

Rachel life choices are questionable but her and Paul Bunyons relationship seem real. Shes the only American on this cycle with nothing to offer and not getting used. I think old John Henry really loves her.

I would kill to get one of those lovely Nigerian dresses. 

I saw at least 3 I would buy on the spot

Karine won't be around that long. Mother Paul knows no woman is going to put up with him.

Speaking of, didn't Jon's sister say something to Rachel that she hasn't been around him long enough to be bored yet?

[lucy711]

I was thinking about Angela and the Nigerian dress situation.  As a white woman, I'd feel strange in Nigerian dress.  I would do it if I was in love with a man from that country, but I would most certainly have reservations.  There's the whole conversation about cultural appropriation happening in the USA, and it would concern me that someone might be offended.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Yep. Jon has proven himself to be a halfwit.

Yes to your comment about Karine.  Have an anchor baby and get a green card.  That's her mission.  She's not even really hiding it at this point!

[Auntie Anxiety]

Jon, Lucy can call you her non-biological father, okay?

[Armchair Critic]

I will give Rachel points for smiling a lot and keeping her mouth shut and listening to Jon and his family, though she still sees no red flags.

[Mindthinkr]

Jon pays for the baby’s daycare and yet doesn’t want to be called Dad? Weird. 

[7isBlue]

Oh! For the love of God, Tarik: burn that effing hat! WTH is it with these dorks and the ridiculous “fashion?” 

[Brooklynista]

I know Lucy is squishy as all get out, but do they ever put her down?

[Bubbacat]

Actually, Jon's not necessarily wrong about Lucy calling him Dad. Of course, since she doesn't talk yet, it's kind of a moot point right now.

[sainte-chapelle]

The snails looked good, I would try them.

[LilaFowler]

What is this, like day 2 for Rachel and Jon? Jumping right into that Daddy bit.

[Neurochick]

Rachel, you’re rushing shit, take it a day at a time.  Damn, she’s scaring me and I’m in the US.

Ugh, loser Ricky.

[snarkish]

Okay, feel free to rip me to shreds.

Mr. Snarkish has a dark beard, although not quite as bushy as Jon's, and looking at his is giving me a little tingle. 

I have a thing for beards...

[Armchair Critic]

If Melissa didn't blow him off before, when she sees that outfit he has on today she will.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Ricky, you are a poor, pathetic loser. Just face the facts and buy a plane ticket home.

[greekmom]

Ricky - She's NOT your girlfriend.

[DVDFreaker]

Can they cancel Ricky? This is pointless since Melissa has no interest in him 

[RichiesOlderBro]

Wearing camo is not something you do outside of the US.

[Bubbacat]

Ricky. Honey. Sweetie. PLEASE. Take the hint. And go home.

[AussieBabe]

I actually get Jon's POV. I don't think you should teach a child to call someone dad. *side eyeing Nicole* It's one thing if a child feels naturally inclined to call someone that. It's another to teach them that. I don't know. Rachel, it's the first couple of days. Chill!

Oh Ricky. Just enjoy your trip and forget about Melissa.

[Pepper Mostly]

If Jon and Rachel get married and raise Lucy, why wouldn't he be called dad? He's weird. 

[lucy711]

Okay...maybe Rachel and Jon should get married before having the "dad" conversation.  Also..what if the biological dad decided he wanted to be in her life one day?

[LilaFowler]

"Melissa" never even invited your sorry ass to her country, you just decided to show up. What if it was not a good time? This guy is an entitled jerk.

[Mindthinkr]

She has missed the opportunity to see Ricky sample all of the street food. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Ricky, check out the red light district. You might find her there.

[Pepper Mostly]

Oh Ricky. You will never see Melissa again. Go home.

Then he will be the real dad and Jon will be the step father

Hazel’s Church looks awesome!  Are they passing around snakes?

You're good. I would give Paul Bunyon some ass *Kayne shrug*
