Re: [BigBrother_Survivor] 'The Bachelorette' recap: Becca enters virgin territory
Becca's season is about what I expected. After the way she was dumped by Arie, the cameras follow her around to catch her every time she cries! As far as final four I'm really shocked Colton is still here, bet he's out next week! And I loved Leo!!

Bahamas for some romance on the beach
The
Bachelorette recap: Becca enters virgin
territoryHebert/ABC
Don't be sad because Richmond, Virginia, is over,
rose lovers — be grateful that it happened. This week,
Becca and her man-harem have alighted in the far less
glamorous locale of the Bahamas, but let's try to make
do.
Once
Becca and the guys get settled in their sweet Baha Mar
suites, the Bachelorette sits down with Chris Harrison for a
pre-date chat. She's hoping for a drama-free week (LOLz)
and some "romance on the beach." Becca admits she's
"falling for a couple guys here" — which means four
dudes are just treading water (heh heh) until she's
allowed to cut them. This week, by the way, roses will be
handed out on dates — and the guys left empty-handed at
the end of each date will not be bringing Becca (and a fleet
of cameras) into their homes next week. Time to separate the
wheat from the chaff, "lady"!Oh
dear. This is what Wills chose to wear to greet Becca in the
Bahamas.

ABC
I
don't want to say that's why
Wills didn't get the first date, but I'm sure it
didn't help. Instead, Becca plucks Colton from the couch
for a one-on-one in the Bahamas sun. The guys are surprised
and more than a little annoyed because — drumroll, please
— Colton still hasn't told Becca he's a virgin. Look,
his body, his choice — but I agree that this is
information Colton needs to share with Becca ASAP.. She's
looking for a husband, not a pupil. Or as Garrett puts it,
she just may not want to "take that on."Especially
since Becca is already giddy about how much "chemistry and
passion" she has with the former football player. "He
could just pick me up and do whatever he wants to do," she
says. Just as Colton is working up the courage to tell Becca
about his lack of experience, this guy shows up:You know what y'all need?" he asks the duo.
"Some conch."
As it turns out, the "pistol" of the conch mollusk is
known as "Bahamian Viagra," and since
Becca and Colton haven't made out for at least 10 minutes,
they need all the natural aphrodisiacs they can get. Plus,
it gives Team Bachelorette an opportunity to make Becca say
things like this:

ABCWhen they're back on deck, the guide cuts open
the conch and helps Colton and Becca remove the pistol,
which closely resembles a slimy worm. "Chew it like
gum!" he instructs Colton. "Put it in your mouth,
man!""If you eat one, I'll eat one," Becca says
gamely. That's the spirit, honey! But try not to get too
hot and bothered, because Colton is about to throw a bucket
of ice-cold water on your libidoOkay,
I'm sorry — that's not fair. Colton was actually a lot
more articulate about his situation, saying: "I told you
earlier that I put my professional life in front of my
personal life. And I spent a lot of time working on football
Colton, and I sort of forgot who personal Colton was… And
I haven't had that many girlfriends, that many dates,
because of sports. Um, and because of that, I still am, I am
a virgin."Becca,
meanwhile, has a terrible poker faceShe thanks him for telling her, but she clearly
doesn't know what else to say, so she excuses herself
politely and walks away from the table. "I don't know
what she's thinking right now," frets Colton. "It's
scary." As much as I'd respect Becca for choosing to end
things with Colton — she's a grown-ass woman with
needs, dammit! — we all know our Bachelorette is too
nice to send a guy packing for sharing a potentially
embarrassing fact with her on television. Colton goes on to
admit that he "made up a lot of lies" to "fit in"
with the other players' locker-room talk, and now he feels
guilty that he didn't "stand up for the man I am."
The
good news for Becca is that Colton isn't waiting for
marriage, he's just waiting for "the right heart." You
know what that means, baby: He's ready to get biz-ay in
the Fantasy Suite! Naturally, Becca gives Colton the
rose.The
second one-on-one of the week goes to Garrett, which comes
as a disappointment to all the guys, but Blake takes it the
hardest. "She has to know this is killing me," he
groans. "She has
to." Then Colton comes home with a rose on his chest, and
Blake starts to full-on shame-spiral.Hold
that thought, pal. Let's turn our attention to Garrett and
Becca's date, which begins with a flight over the
crystal-blue waters in a rickety-looking seaplane. They
travel to a "private" beach for a picnic and an
afternoon of frolicking. Garrett tells Becca it was hard
seeing Colton come back with a rose, but he's not the type
of guy who lets himself get "down and discouraged." The
Bachelorette knows a red flag when she sees one, and tries
to press Garrett for more details about he handles stress
and adversity. He's all, Nah,
nah, I've been upset a few times in my life, but that's
it.It's
definitely a worrisome answer, but rather than pushing,
Becca changes the subject to "We can talk at dinner —
for now, let's make out."That
night, Becca gets right to the point, asking Garrett why he
chose to marry his first wife. He explains that he was ready
for marriage and a family, and he thought his ex was the
right person — even though, he adds, she was
"hot-blooded" and was "screaming and yelling" all
the time. "I just figured it would be something I would be
able to handle," he says. Instead, Garrett says he found
himself "changing, like, who I was" to be with her.
Again, Becca has concerns — no one wants a partner to
subvert his own needs just to keep the peace in a
relationship — and once again, Garrett assures her
that there's nothing to see here. "No, I don't have
anything that you've done that has, like, set me off,"
he says. "Everything that I see in you is, like,
everything that I'm looking for in a wife, and I'm
beginning to fall in love with you."And
she LOVES it. Go on, girl — give him that rose.Okay, Blake, it's your turn for a one-on-one
date. Will you please stop whining now?And
just because you had to wait so long for a second
one-on-one, Becca has arranged a "surprise" concert with
the gentlemen who loosed the toxic earworm known as "Who
Let the Dogs Out" into the universe. Please welcome the
Baha Men! Or don't. Your choice.Later,
Blake and Becca sit on the beach and gush to each other
about how "lucky" they are — and then Blake
admits he was "freaking out" about not getting a solo
date earlier. Her response, though, is like a dagger through
Blake's distressed T-shirt: "In a way, I do sympathize
with Arie because I couldn't understand how you could feel
so strongly for multiple people," says Becca. But now,
"I see how difficult it probably was for him at the
end."Blake
knows it's time to show some vulnerability, and fast.. At
dinner, he tells Becca that sometimes he has "issues
opening up" because he comes from a family that used to
"brush things under the rug." That's an
understatement. Blake explains that when he was a teenager,
his parents got divorced after his mom fell in love with a
man who just happened to be his basketball coach/English
teacher. That sent the small-town rumor mill into overdrive,
and Blake ended up hearing things about his mom — like the
fact that she was moving out of the house — from people he
barely knew. Ouch."I
don't want to raise my kids that way," Blake says. "I
wanna put family first over everything." Good for you,
buddy. Break the cycle! He caps the night by telling Becca
he loves her — which as we know is a surefire way to
secure a rose. With that, Blake is hometown-bound. Plus,
Becca says she's in love with him! What a comeback, eh
rose lovers?After three "best dates ever," it's time for
Becca to face the unfortunate task of sending two guys home.
Jason, Leo, and Wills, you're up!Buck
up, boys. You've got a Bachelorette to impress. They meet
Becca on a "private" island for a group game of
volleyball and then brief-but-intense individual chats. "I
really, really, want you to meet my parents," says Wills.
"Next year, they will be celebrating their
50th anniversary!" (Ooooh, this bodes well for
Wills' Bachelor qualifications — he's seeking a love
like mom and dad's!)Jason
tells Becca he sees a happy future with her, and that's
why he's stayed positive during an otherwise tough week.
Leo's feeling anxious, though, because he knows he's so
"different" from the remaining men. For one thing,
he's not ready to propose in two weeks — that's for
damn sure. Becca appreciates his honesty, but she's also
up front about the fact that she wants a guy who's
prepared to propose… and so Leo, I'm afraid that means
your time here is up. Please pack your hair ties and
go.One down, one to go. Becca is still torn once
dinner rolls around, and she's hoping she'll get a
"gut feeling" about which guy to keep. Should it be
Jason, whom she has great chemistry with but who isn't
always as "vocal" with his "feelings" as Becca would
like him to be? Or should it be Wills, who has the
confidence to wear plaid suits and floral rompers, but who
is definitely not the beefy-jock type Becca seems to go for
(see: Garrett, Colton)? To our Bachelorette, the choice is
between "somebody… who's already all in" or someone
"who I don't know if he's quite there with me yet."
Oh man, I think something super-sad is about to
happen…
