The Bachelor, Paris: Week 3

Do wah ditty, ditty dum, ditty do. The girls are marching on Mt. Moana and she can’t handle it. “Captain… she’s gonna blow!” Not once, but twice the misunderstood Moana had a Mount St. Helens meltdown. Can’t say she’s not “invested” anymore, can they?

So recently booted Jennifer and Shiloh come back to pick Travis’ one-on-one dates. No surprise that Moana didn’t get one. Turns out, they chose the nicest girls left—Jehan and Sarah S. I was hoping for a little more from these two in terms of revenge, but they sincerely wanted what was best for Travis, it seemed.

Roses… “Yes!”

On the 2nd one-on-one date Travis surprised America by showing his decent, home-grown, down-to-earth self and extending a rose to Sarah S., his Nashville neighbor. Certainly she’s a good girl and perhaps there’s more than meets the eye, but thus far there haven’t exactly been any sparks between these two. We’ll have to wait until next week to see how the pair does in the home of the Grand Ole Opry.

Sarah B. is still alive and kicking, even though she got trounced in the bike race. (And here I thought she was the strong, athletic type?) Anyway, other than Moana’s efforts to get close to our Bachelor, only Sarah B. has been working her flirt. It seems Travis really likes her, but you get the feeling that he finds her a bit of an utterless boat, a rolling stone, and aimless… you get the picture. We’ll see if her total lack of responsibility (yes students, college isn’t work) will affect his opinion of her. Headin’ to Canada, eh?

Found out this week that Susan has her sights set on Hollywood. Perhaps Travis is just keeping her around as eye candy. She’s certainly cute but that won’t be enough for Travis, otherwise he’d have been paying more attention to her earlier in the season. Either that, or I’m completely wrong like usual.

Moana’s motto, Dominate the Competition. And so far, she’s doing it. We’ll have to wait and see if Travis is the kind of guy that like to be dominated. Yikes, I’ve kind of crossed over into a questionable area of discussion. Let’s hope Travis gets to see the real Moana and then runs for the hills.

Roses… “No.”

Now that I’ve seen more of Jehan, I like her better. Heck, she went to bat to keep an illegal foreign national in the States by marrying him. In my book, that shows real committment.

Two words, “Luu uush.” Ok, that’s not exactly fair. But of the 11.39 minutes Tara has been on the screen, she’s been drinking for 10.7 of them. Might want to get the girl some help. Doesn’t The Gap have a program for its employees?

It’s another crazy week in the world of The Bachelor. Bet he’s starting to wish he could back to the peace and quiet of the ER.
