The Bach week 4 thoughts

• Rachel's date sucked. It had potential to be really fun/romantic, but her super hard nipple was distracting, they had little to say, the fruit flies were rampant, they seem to have no chemistry and you know the date's bad when Ben's excited to point out a BEAVER DAM! Commitment-phobe got a sympathy rose and I think she'll be going home soon.

• I was shocked but pleased that Ben sent Samantha home mid-date. She needed to go eventually, but for him to send her packing like that for asking if she was going to get a 1:1 date soon was kind of extreme, but awesome. I really liked how he didn't even seem nervous about it. He just told her "this should end now" and she was out. Go Ben! Probably didn't help that she talked to him right after Nicki, who was expressing her gratitude for being invited on group dates.
  
• Jennifer is my #2 fave. She's really pretty and I like her style! I couldn't believe Ben made her get her hair wet first thing on the date, after she probably spent hours getting ready - but she was a good sport. Better than I would've been! I wouldn't even go on Big Foot Rapids with the husband (then boyfriend) at Knott's because I had washed my hair the night before and I wanted to look cute the rest of the day. But I guess not all girls have to take 1.5 hours out of their day to make their hair look straight and boring. Jennifer and Ben seemed to hit it off, but my favorite part of their date was watching this nutbag at the concert:

• I get why Emily ratted Courtney out to Ben (because Courtney is rude and manipulative, of course), but it's almost like she's never seen an episode of The Bach before. This tactic never flies with The Bach! He won't believe you! He will like you less now! He will make your mouth go side to side in a weird manner for the entire night!

• And Courtney... You continue to treat people poorly and then say things that make absolutely no sense. Genuinely nice people don't say "don't f*ck with me" and there's physically no way to verbally assault someone once you rip their head off, because they will then have no ears.

WINNING?

But my favorite quote of the night didn't come from Ben or any of his ladies in waiting. It came from my friend Jill, who text me as Monica was being walked out to the limo:

"At least Monica is going home with a rose!!! She has 30 on that ugly dress!"

 Thank you Jill, I can always count on you for the best one liners :)
