From the clip, it looks as though he questioning why he's there. She tells him if he doesn't want to be there to take the initiative and bow out. He does. So, looks like they mutually gave each other the finger. Guess they probably wouldn't have worked out later anyway if they both dug their heels in. Locking horns like that is never good in a relationship.

I suspect you are correct, but I also suspect that they will edit it as if he is talking about Bentley, not Ryan. The storyline is that the guys are furious at Ashley, who f***ed it up again, over her obsession with Bentley, and they all might leave because of it. (And based on some of the reactions on this board, the viewers will probably totally buy into it and dump on Ashley even more.) If Mickey really was more upset about Ryan getting the rose, it lessens the theme that Bentley (and Ashley's stupidity about him) is the overriding obstacle this season. Frankly, I think the producers' obsession with the guy is greater than Ashley's ever was.

I totally agree. They absolutely got off on all of this Bentley thing at Ashley's expense. Now, ratings are down, people are trashing the lead and they've turned this guy into a folk hero. It's just ridiculous.

Well at least last season we had a mouse in the mansion and a fat cat on Ali and Roberto's date. That was really exciting. :laughingoutlou

Just this.....Nothing that we don't already know~

One other scheduling snafu regarding the “Bachelorette” this season. For the first time since ABC has been airing the “Bachelorette” during the summer, July 4th falls on a Monday. ABC announced this past Tuesday that the July 4th episode will be a repeat of the Hong Kong episode that airs this Monday. The finale still is airing Aug. 1st, so that means there’s a change to the schedule. One of the ABC executives tweeted that the “Men Tell All” will now be shown on Sunday night July 31st, the night before the finale. Trying to confirm if that’s the case. If it isn’t, then that means they’ll have to combine two episodes at some point, and I don’t really see that happening. So as of now, it looks like the “Men Tell All” will air the night before the finale, something they’ve never done before. I honestly would’ve liked to have seen them combine the overnight date episode with the final episode, just because we all know how long and boring the final episode actually is with only two guys left and two hours to kill. A LOT of filler on that show.

Also, it’s been updated in the “Bachelorette Ashley Spoilers” link that on Monday’s episode, Mickey actually eliminates himself during the cocktail party by walking off the show. Guess he’s pissed at Ashley for still talking about Bentley. This has been shown in all the promos so ABC really isn’t hiding it. Pretty much semantics at this point in terms of his exit. All I knew was the guy left during this episode. Didn’t realize it was at the cocktail party and not the rose ceremony. Shoot me.

Thanks San. Smiley

But is an AMERICAN holiday and we like our fireworks and cookouts on the 4th :D

I know that, especially since I was born and raised in the US of A.
