But I think the real key is that Catherine needs to get past the idea that the woman most similar to Sean is going to be the one he falls in love with. I truly don't think he's fallen in love with anyone at this point and sees potential with everyone left. I think Catherine just doesn't realize that he sees things in her that are like him- not in background, but in personality and interests. I don't think she could possibly imagine that the comment (which he probably didn't hear until he saw the playback), "I just need to pee and go", illustrates the kind of girl he's really interested in. That girl who really mourns the misfortune of her friend is also the girl he's interested in- the one with true compassion. Because you know? Sean is a man who is also deeply compassionate. Catherine's bio states that a most important quality of a man is that he can look beyond himself- and that's because she is a woman who does the same. I sure hope we see this come out in the episodes ahead- but somehow, I doubt TPTB will let us see it (just as they don't let us hear the faith discussions)- but thankfully, this is something we will be able to see as we watch them live their lives.

Well said.

BUT I also think SEAN needs to man up. He keeps telling her how different and individual she is. That's all good and well, but maybe he should tell her she is what he never knew he wanted/needed..

Poor little Catherine, I felt so bad for her last night. I disagree with so many things said about that episode but I can agree to disagree and move on. What a sweet girl....I'll leave it at that. I do think starting the next episode after Dez's what appears to be disastrous HTD, Catherine comes on strong and the clarity Sean needs happens pretty quickly. Good for them.

ETA: Dez's brother appears to be an idiot. Definintely nothing like his sister!

Looks like a producer setup to me and the bro got into it a little too much. Feel bad for Dez if that's what happened.

Which begs the question: why would the producers feel the need to go this far? Is the brother not saying to Sean's face much the same that many here have said: Sean's "crazy about" all the girls, but who is he falling in love with? We see moments with Dez and Cat, but nothing sustained like Ashley H. Even if it's happening off screen and hidden, why is it being done?

My theory with Dez and Sean is that the show worked hard against them, which allowed them both to doubt their feelings and the relationship. Dez's brother's words bear a striking resemblance to-if not an identical one-Kacie's dad's humph last season. Also, Sean's angered by both the brother's words and then the "ex's" interaction with him. If the show staged and encouraged this interaction, why? Either someone wanted out or the show wanted Dez for another role.

In the past two episodes, Dez has been telling us the type of man that she wants. This week she even cried about wanting her parents' kind of love.

I think that, like Ben with Kacie, Sean may have decided that he couldn't have a life with a brother-in-law who essentially called him "meathead."

So glad Tierra is gone especially after she made that below the belt comment about Ashlee's age. I dont think 32 is quite old enough to be considered a cougar but regardless Ashlee at 32 is ALOT more beautiful than Tierra at 24. Can you imagine what she'll look like at 32 when she already is botoxing herself at 24? Not everyone finds their life partner in their twenties and Id be careful if I was Tierra cause she may end up still single past a certain age as well. Unlike Courtney, she doesnt have model looks so she doesnt have beauty to fall back on to make you look over how awful she is. I dont find her beautiful in the least. She has a weird shaped face/head and gross eyebrows.

I thought Des pulls a prank on Sean? is this what the brother is doing? I'm confused....

This episode and the comments here make it clear why the "special" Sean Tells All had to happen. Viewers and even, insiders, are confused by what they're watching.

Perhaps it's what really went down - a trainwreckish adventure - but better editing could have made it make more sense instead of focusing on Tierra's antics week after week.
