I knew I could count on Jimmy Kimmel to pick the one. He knows his stuff. Emily says she don't know that much about Indy, she knows NASCAR, Jimmy says really, you know it now because maybe you and he are together, in a fantasy suite of your own.

Between Jimmy and Kathy they both had her squirming about the fantasy suite..

No, just in front of Em's 2 friends because her friend Wendy asked him to.

I thought ryan too nutty! I know a lot of people say arie but that would be conflicting with her saying arie is such a good guy post show so I don't think its him and my guy is ryguy!

I thought it was Arie, too, based on Emily's reaction. Arie's was the third pic to be shown and before showing the audience his pic - while Kimmel was turning over the pic to face himself - Emily made an effort to see whose pic it was and immediately went from a grin to a straight face.

I'll need to watch other Kimmel interviews to see if he needles the leads over the F1 or if he avoids zeroing on the F1.

I def got the impression the way she shrugged her shoulders and smiled that she stills likes Arie, not that she isn't in love with Jef but that she still likes him and he still makes her "nervous"!

One of the things I want to mention is that I really love the ferocity with which Emily defends her child and her motherhood. I absolutely applaud her. That woman loves her child to death, and I'm proud of her for being such an active mom. Given the status she enjoys, she could have easily pawned Ricki off on someone. She could have no involvement in her life. She could not be involved in school or be a soccer mom or anything. Instead, she wants to be with Ricki and keep her life stable to the point that she asked for her to stay with her throughout filming.

Not only that, but she's making a point to underline to these guys that she's a mother first an foremost. If they want her, Ricki is a part of her, so they must accept and honor both of them. They have to step up to the plate and enjoy doing kid things. It's not just about romancing her. I love it!

I can't wait to see her go postal on some of these guys' behinds!

ITA!! She really does seem like such a good mom!

And as far as the bolded: These guys need to realize that Ricki's dad isn't in the picture. It's not like a divorce situation where both parents share custody. This show is going to be all Ricki all the time. I don't know if that's really sunk in for most of these guys yet.

But at the same time. I worry that Emily isn't going to be able to hand over reins. She has the final say on Ricki right now. I worry that she won't let anyone really "father" Ricki and not just be a "father - figure". I wonder if at some point she is expecting her husband to adopt Ricki. If she does have more kids with someone will only then will her guy have a say in that child's development or will he also be able to give input on Ricki's upbringing? Tough situation.

Em's friends can speak to this point, but I wonder if some of Em's other relationships didn't work out not only because she didn't see them fitting into her life, but she didn't see herself being able to hand over any part of the parenting to the guy even if the guy never met Ricki!

Whomever Em ends up with, that guy will have to have the patience of Job as he and Em negotiate forming a family. He'll have to work with Emily and Ricki to earn their trust. He'll also have to share with Emily, like Ryan did, that it's important to him that he be Ricki's father. Emily is use to being in the driver's seat; he'll need some patience while she adjusts to riding shotgun.
