The Bachelor 22 Overnights and Finale Recap (Spoilers!!!)

Hi guys,

Sorry I missed last week. I was in the middle of moving to a new house, and didn’t have time to watch the show until I settled in. That being said, not too much of note happened last week.

Episode #9: The gang traveled to Peru, for the overnight dates.

Date #1:
  • Kendall was first up. She and Arie rode dune buggies around the sand dunes.
  • Arie said that “Dune Buggies are like relationships. Ups and downs, and a little bit scary” Someone tell this man, not everything has to be a metaphor!
  • Kendall told Arie that, in the past, she’s had a problem with being a novelty in her relationships. Which is exactly what she is to Arie, despite what he tells her.
  • They spend the night in the fantasy suite.
  • In the morning Arie asked her “How are you feeling, after last night? I mean emotionally, not physically.” EH OH! Way to kiss and tell Arie

Date #2:
  • Next up was Lauren. She and Arie took a plane ride to view the geoglyphs. “wow.” Was all Lauren could say.
  • She is so BORING! I’m done with her. But apparently Arie is not, because he invited her to the fantasy suite. They go to a swanky room with a mini pool in the middle of the living room.
  • Both Arie and Lauren exchange ‘I love yous’

Date #3:
  • Becca K is the last date this week. They ride on a Catamaran and later walk to a secluded tent.
  • They say I love you to each other as well. (The writing is on the wall for Kendall. She didn’t get the L word from Arie)
  • Becca also accepts the fantasy suite, but instead of going to hotel room, they camp out in the wilderness overnight. I don’t mean to knock camping, but why did Lauren get the 5 star treatment and Becca get a tent?
  • According to Becca, Arie was kissing her teeth all night.

Later in the episode
  • Becca’s ex showed up, to try and win her back. And he’s a dish! If Becca doesn’t want him, I’ll take him.
  • He claims he didn’t know about the show and that it ended in an engagement. Riiiiight….
  • He talks to Arie first, to explain his intentions, out of respect. Arie says that was the “unclassiest thing” LOL!
  • Arie mocks him, saying “they broke up a year ago and now he’s going to propose to her? What?!” How is that any worse than proposing to a woman you met 9 weeks ago?

  •  Becca denied her Ex and told him to leave. She’s doubling down on her relationship with Arie (a decision she may later live to regret)
  • Becca cried out of frustration when her ex showed up -2 Points
  • Becca visits Arie in his hotel room to discuss the arrival of her ex. 20 Points


Rose Ceremony:
  • The three girls lined up and awaited Arie’s rose distribution, but instead Arie pulled Kendall aside
  • He sent her home without giving out a rose -25 Points
  • She cried during her exit -2 Points  


Recap:

  • Becca: 20-2=18
  • Kendall: -2-25=-27


Episode #10: So two girls are left to meet Arie’s parents and vie for an engagement

Date #1:
  • Oh God she’s so boring! It’s Lauren again. Who let her on tv?
  • The family liked her though. 20 Points
  • Lauren cried while talking to Arie’s mom -2 Points


Date #2:
  • Becca’s meeting with Arie’s parents also went well 20 Points
  • The only downside for Becca was that every member of Arie’s family brought up Lauren and how much they liked her.

  • But during their interviews they all said they preferred Becca.
  • Becca cried, thinking about how Arie might have a strong connection with Lauren -2 Points



Lauren’s second date:
  • Lauren cries before her date, because the stress is getting to her -2 Points
  • She and Arie hike Machu Picchu
  • How does she keep getting all the interesting touristy dates? She never seems to appreciate anything. All she can ever muster is a fake “wow”. YOU’RE AT FREAKIN MACHU PICCHU, LADY! Can’t you at least feign some interest?!


Becca’s second date:
  • Arie takes Becca to a market.
  • Becca says Arie looks like a baby alpaca. Twinsies!!!

  • In celebration of their engagement, Arie swings Becca around, and she cracks off her rose. Foreshadowing.


Weeks later:
  • Arie invites the cameras back for exclusive break up footage! He’s had a change of heart and wants Lauren instead.

  • Becca thought she was there to spend some happy couple time together, and boom, he blindsided her! -25 Points
  • She starts packing up her things to leave, and he stops her saying he should be the one to leave. She agrees, but he just stands there!
  • Becca says “I’m not hugging you goodbye!”
  • Becca goes in the bathroom -15 Points to cry -2 Points
  • Arie awkwardly hangs around.

  • Oh God, it’s so hard to watch. She asks him repeatedly to leave and he just stands there, in silence. Why isn’t he leaving, if he has nothing else to say? 
  • He just sits on the couch giving Zoolander blue steel.

  •  How did she restrain herself from punching him in his stupid face?
  • She says “please just go” and he says “ok” and then he just continues to sit there!!!!!
  • He says “K, I’m going to go.” And then like 20 minutes later (after creepily staring at her in silence) he finally gets up to go. What was he waiting for? Did he expect her to beg him to stay? What a dolt!
  • He tried to get in the van, but the door was locked. Even the chauffeur doesn’t want anything to do with him.


Recap:

  • Lauren: 20-2-2-2-2=12
