I’m just gonna start by saying OY! This season of “The Bachelorette” is like a bad romance novel with a questionable ending. I would feel worse for Jillian if I didn’t think her naivety weren’t to blame for everything!

Jillian and crew board a train for a week long journey. While on their trip she gives Robby a one on one date. Apparently things didn’t go well because he was off that train at the next stop. Um, a smidge harsh. That guy’s gonna need therapy with rejection that hard core.

In her defense, Jillian is kinda upset about the whole thing. Who goes to cheer her up? Resident bad guy Wes. As if that wasn’t bad enough the producers choose this cuddle session to do a voice over of one of Wes’ confessionals. He completely admits to using this show to advance his career. What?!?! I knew he was a low life but to be so blatant about it!?! It left this viewer with a sick feeling in her belly.

Everyone except Reid goes on a group date of snow shoeing. It’s just as weird as any date involving one girl and five guys. After snow shoeing they end up at a hotel for some dinner. Jake pours his heart out to the camera but when he goes to tell Jillian his moment of heart felt declaration is stolen by the guys. Opportunity missed!

Then the guys all take turns trying to get a little alone time with Jillian. Tanner P takes his time to molest her feet. He is visibly distracted by her feet, remarking how soft and beautiful they are. How has he stayed this long? He actually remarked “Now that I’ve felt how soft her feet are I want her to meet my family.” Really?! Does he not hear the creepy involved in that statement?

After someone asks Jillian what she sleeps in Tanner P, as in Tanner Perv, shows everyone his sleepwear by yankin’ his pants off. Beneath are a pair of extra tighty whitey bikinis. Seriously?! He’s from the Texas, isn’t his momma watching this? Has he no shame?

Reid’s one on one date is next. This guy is Chandler Bing’s cousin. He’s neurotic but Jillian eats it up. She loves how he shows her his vunerablities and gives him a rose. OK, whatever.

Meanwhile, the other boys are hanging out chatting. Tanner P takes this time to out himself as the source of Girlfriend Gate. No one has a problem except Wes, who says he doesn’t like tattletales. Hmm, wonder why? Then Wes just blurts out how he’s content to have made it six episodes (how does he know what episode it is and why does he care?) and that he’s basically acheived his goal of self promotion. He even checks “singing his song to Jillian” off his self promotion to-do list! Juan got sent home so this guy could use the show for his own agenda! JERK!

Before the rose ceremony can start Jillian pulls twenty-five year old Michael aside for a brief interogation. Is he ready to settle down? What about kids? Did she not think about these things before?

So who gets the boot? Tanner P! Yay! And Jake! Jake?! Now I’m 0/2 this season and a bit confused. What the heck is she looking for if she’s keeping Wes and giving Jake his walking papers?

The previews for next week look fantastic! Jake comes back to confront Wes!! I look forward to Monday with guarded optimism.
