Does anyone else think it's unfair that Ali is having all this time with Jake RIGHT before a rose ceremony??????? I'm sure the other 3 girls are thrilled.
I thought it looked like he was trying to keep from laughing. I thought it was embarassing and that she talked about her ex-husband too much on this date.
What is the difference?? I think he made it pretty clear to her that he wanted her to stay but I think Chris really gave him some food for thought. If she stays he may have a hard time letting her go just because he knows she gave up her job. If he does choose her then he ends up with a jobless fiance.
I don't know if she ever said they were loaded, just that she was a Daddy's girl. I assumed they had money, too, but I'm not sure if she ever really said that.
Dear ABC:
Reality shows are just that..."reality".
If you are to give us an OBVIOUSLY scripted piece o kayrap... can you PLEASE hire better ACTORS????
I think there is a difference between "I don't want you to go." and "Please stay with me.". I wonder what was on the editing floor from the first meeting as he seemed very ambivalent about the possibility of her going. Like it didn't matter much one was or another to him and it was all her decision. He didn't even tell her he didn't want her to leave until she went to see him during the rose ceremony. I think if he had said something in the earlier conversation (ala Ed and Jilly) there may have been a different outcome. It was really clear the Jillian didn't want Ed to go from the moment he told her he was leaving.
I know!! And then the family says how "this happens to her all the time", and that makes him feel better??!! Um, yea, sure, every other girl Vienna has ever known is just mean and jealous. It's not Vienna at all.
Of course there was a camera crew there. I am sure that Ali told the producers that she needed to talk to Jake about leaving. AFAIK, there is no contact between the parties unless there is a camera present. I'm not sure where the big Tooth Fairy conspiracy comes in.Camera crew on the ready for every possible turn, soap opera tears at the blink of an eye... sorry, I guess I've been in the business too long to have any faith in the process.
I would say Gia, mostly because he asked Tenley's father for his permission to marry her. BTW, WHAT was up with THAT
.
I thought all 3 girls looked thrilled. I was surprised because I thought Ali and Tenley were friends.
Oh man, during the big "I have to leave" scene I was sitting there in total disbelief. I was thinking Ali must be a plant/hired actress because there is no way that horrible acting was for real. No offense to those who believed it, but wow, I totally disagree. And if it was real then I think Ali is even more of an immature mess than I previously realized. I think this is a total ABC storyline and I wouldn't be surprised if she comes back and Jake ends up with her.....dramatically of course.

Not true. There are LOTS of edited scenes we never see. The Tooth Fairy is a fantasy, much like this storyline.
And I STILL come back every Monday!! What is WRONG with ME!!!

You say "not true" but seem to be agreeing with me that the cameras are always on when Jake meets with one of the women. Of course it was edited for maximum storyline, but that doesn't mean that Ali was acting or that the whole work thing was made up.
I believe the PTB on the show already know who they want to promote for their next Bachelorette and are setting up the drama so we can all "discuss" it and tune it. It's a ploy that WORKS.
