Wait... her dinner with Mike is at a taxidermy place?  That's...  different

I totally missed all that. I think I was too distracted checking out Mike’s arms in that tight turtleneck that everyone was making fun of to notice the decor.

[SallyAlbright]

SALMON BLAZER ALERT. Are they seriously all sharing the same jacket? 

[truthaboutluv]

And back to our regularly scheduled program of the most awkward roommate situation ever - Mike and Luke.

[saber5055]

Meanwhile, back at the hotel ...

Are those two forced to just sit and stare at each other? WTHeck. Not even any haggis to snack on.

[dirtypop90]

That group date was...a lot...for episode 4.  lol I could never be the bachelorette.

[adhoc]

Back at the hotel...

Luke: Stares at Mike with crazy, evil psycho eyes 

Mike: Fears for life, leaves

Luke: Sheesh, what's his problem?

The "First Bachelorette Highland Games"? Nope.

They had the Highland Games on Emily's season and they were better. But these were good, too.

I love the Highland Games.

Yeah, what is in that “fresh Scottish air”? Even though it’s Mike Meyers’ British character and not his Scottish character, all I could think of was Austen Powers: Do I make you feel randy?

[dirtypop90]

Not enough Tyler...That is all.

[talktoomuch]

Kissing multiple people in the same day doesn't really bother me too much, but making out with multiple people kinda does. Yet still I watch 38 seasons and counting...

[adhoc]

Luke, these people who all liked you...was this, like, pre-steroids?

Wow, Luke's not giving Hannah much to work with.

It was also the kilts...and the pool table...and the bed.  Just felt like a lot early in the season, and I'm no prude.  But this is why I can't ever go on the bachelor or be the bachelorette.  lol

[CindyBee]

Damn this beautiful scenery is wasted on that dumbass Luke.   

[Madding crowd]

Luke would not be the guy for me but I don’t know what Hannah wants him to say. No matter how he answers he is wrong. Also, the guys are acting  like children.

Horizontal Highland Flings.

“I mean, sure every guy hates him, has told me several times that he’s a liar, and he looks like he wants to kill me, skin my body, and wear it as a coat, but my heeeeeart says yes!” -Hannah

[bosawks]

I kinda feel bad for her.

In the real world she’d just bang him, get it out of her system and call it a day.

[FlyingEgret]

Am I the only one that hears Hannah endink every "-ing" word with a "k"?

[JenE4]

I feel like Luke is getting a one-man 2:1 date: The Actual Asshole Luke vs the Pretend Sensitive Luke. He’s going to be left to die alone on this cliffside.

Hannah, not a good match if you need a team of producers to explain what you mean by “how do I feel.”

[SallyAlbright]

Producers have to be making her keep him, right? He is a nightmare and Hannah seems genuinely annoyed by him despite finding him physically attractive. 

[JenE4]

Hannah wants the deep talk: Mac and cheese or spaghetti? Soul bearing!

Yeah, this was The Second Bachelorette Highland Games. And then they did real competitions from real Highland Games, like caber toss and other strength contests. Good times. Although men in skirts is always a good time IMO. Makes every guy look hot.

I think she'd be dating him IRL.  And w/o all the other guys around telling her he's a dickwad, I could see them getting engaged. And married even. Then we'd see their story on Dateline a few years later.

[Jax7917]

Hannah hates drama so much for someone who caused a lot of it on her last season . Does Caelynn ring a bell ?

I don't think they are making her but they are in her head sayings stuff like "you gave him the first impression rose for a reason" and "what if he's your tru love forever guy".   Manipulating her to doubt what she knows she should do and that's send him back to the US of A.

It must also be the shared faith?  They must have cut some of their connection to make Luke and Hannah look worse.  The TPTB have shown so many times that they do not give af about the lead.  Every single episode so far has been about Luke.  Maybe he is our future bachelor?

[tennisgurl]

If Hannah "hates drama" maybe dont keep the house drama king around? Just saying.

I could TOTALLY see them together in real life. 

[SallyAlbright]

This early in a relationship is supposed to be giddy and happy and fun. If you are already fighting and trying to "work through things" without even dating exclusively, it's probably not a great sign, Hannah dear.

I was waiting for him to say "it's not about the pasta!" (TM Vanderpump Rules)

[tennisgurl]

This are basically the before pictures to be shown after the bloody murder/suicide right? Every shot looks like someones last known photograph with Luke P around. 

[dirtypop90]

Hannah admitting she didn't care about Luke's actions on the rugby date? These two deserve each other.

LOL! Most Dramatic Season Ever, and a crossover episode with CSI Scotland.

Oh man, Luke and Hannah are totally bonding over their shared insecurities. Hannah is totally guiding him and he's playing all his right cards.

*sigh*

My money is on he gets the rose.

God is it over? Because I stopped listening like ten minutes ago.

[CindyBee]

Do we really need 30 minutes of this nonsense!?!

Oh well, next week better have lots of Tyler, Pilot Pete and Conner to make up for this disaster of an episode.

You know a to be continued is coming.  This is the freakin Luke show!

[SallyAlbright]

More Tyler and Jed, please! PUT US OUT OF OUR MISERY and send Luke the fuck home. 

[tennisgurl]

Hannah has so many guys here who seem nice, smart, funny, attractive, and pretty well adjusted by Bachelorette standards, probably one of the best groups in awhile...and she zeroes in on crazy eyed brain dead manipulative Luke P. 

[bosawks]

You want more out of Luke than he’s giving you ooorrrr you want more out of Luke than he’s capable of?

And is it really fair to hold a hunk of meat accountable for not having the emotions you want?

Maybe this is the last chapter ....  hope, hope, hope......

[dirtypop90]

I'm not sure why TPTB think we want to see this.  This is not "fun" drama.   It's exhausting.

[Jax7917]

Luke can make this whole nagging conversation with Hannah go away if he just breaks the ice and say if he prefers Mac and cheese or spaghetti . She keeps asking him to tell her about himself and he keeps saying how perfect she is . He ( and by the looks of it , she too ) seem to need drama to be happy . 

[tennisgurl]

The word of the day on Luke’s word of the day calendar is Clarity apparently.

[talktoomuch]

Luke is empty inside and Hannah keeps trying to make that emptiness into "still waters run deep." But sometimes you just have to accept that still waters are just still but shallow.

[bosawks]

Hannah is really trying to sell it to herself that Luke is emotionally complex and that’s why they’re having communication difficulties not that he’s just a meathead.

Get out my head @bosawks!

[CindyBee]

The preview clip of Luke praying at some random church is just too much.

[JenE4]

I can’t give you this rose...until the rose ceremony.

Was that Luke? He grew a beard? I thought he talked best with Jesus and God in the shower.

Totally agree. *sigh*

[ECM1231]

Oy, that date with Luke was painful. Maybe Luke is just a lunkhead and there is nothing there. Hannah should not have to try so hard, no matter how much in lust with him she is.

[dirtypop90]

Friends, I looked away and missed the preview.  On social media, people are saying Garrett said something about Hannah's actions with Luke.  Did anyone catch that?
