Episode 4 - 4/30 - Ready For Love - Discussion - Spoilers

Shandi&Alba have impressive résumés and I've had no idea Shandi is 34y - hats off! ... and as All-American girl deserves, has a Wiki page
Never thought I'd say that this is becoming one fine mess & I don't mind.

This show is like the love child of MF and Donald Trump. Seriously.

Yup - me too. Alba was initially my hands-down favorite but each episode a little less. I am still on fence whether I'd put her in the "mean girl" category but was surprised by some of her comments to Shandi, who I am starting to like more.

I need another episode before I decide if I am on team Alba or team Shandi or team ?. I am not so sure if Alba and Shandi are on for "right" reasons or to promote careers. Here are interesting profiles on each:

Same here! I really liked Alba at the beginning, and now I switched over to liking Shandi better. You can definitely see the chemistry between Ernesto and Shandi.

Hubby's out tonight... might just rewatched that last kiss before I go to bed! Good dreams guaranteed :hidingchair

Same. Well, I think I need another episode to make up my mind. I'm a little on the fence with them both. I also feel like I dont know the other girls .

I agree. I was all about Alba, but now I'm leaning toward Shandi for Ernesto. Alba seems great, though. I actually had a really cute Twitter exchange with her about how she likes being referred to as a "nerd."

Good god that kiss was smokin'!

I'm posting this for happygolucky and anyone else who has yet to see the show. It's a pretty detailed account of the second part of Tim's date after the trivia contest. If you've seen the show, you'll probably want to skip this post.


Tim and Jenna go off to play a round of pool. Jenna responds “Oh, great!” I heard sarcasm in her voice…again IMO. New rules, above each pocket is a cup with a piece of paper with a bet that Jenna writes. If Jenna sinks a ball in that pocket, Tim has to do the bet. While she's writing on the paper, Tim says, “Uh oh, that smiles freaks me out.”

After Tim breaks, it’s Jenna’s turn to shoot. She says to Tim that she doesn’t even know if she’s holding the cue stick right. Tim comes up behind her and shows her how to use her hand as a bridge. (I told you Jenna knows how to work it.) She shoots and the ball goes in the side pocket. Jenna laughs and Tim laughingly says, “You didn’t tell me that you actually were like a pro.” He reads the bet to himself and says to Jenna, “You bastard!!”

The bet says to pop your top off…so he does. It was a cute moment between them. Tim has a fine upper body and Jenna admires it. Jenna describes it in a PI as one of those moments where it’s in slow motion and angels sing (she’s acting out as she says this). Jenna sighs to Tim, “Oh, will the other girls be jealous!”

The scene switches to the other girls talking in a different room of the bar talking about how hard it is that Jenna is with Tim right now. Hailey says her mind is going crazy. Sarah asks Hailey if she worried about a 23 year old. Hailey replies, “No.” Danielle (?...can’t remember her name…anyway the list girl) speculates on what Tim is looking for: somebody who is mature, somebody who’s gone through things. Hailey says, “Past just like physical (sic) and being attracted and somebody being fun. I think he’s looking for more than that.” Sara nods during this.

Scene switches back to Jenna and Tim. She hits another ball in a pocket and celebrates. The new bet – “Kiss standing on the table.” Tim picks Jenna up and puts her on the table. He then climbs up. They kiss several times while music plays in the background. Tim’s hand is on her butt, on her back, and eventually, he cups her face. Then Eskimos kisses. Jenna: “Nothing like making out…” Tim finishes, “on a pool table.” Jenna: “Hm, huh..normal situations..the usge ,” and then she snickers.

In a PI, Jenna talks about how Tim is a great kisser, how she forgets where she is and that she lost track of time while they kissed. It cuts back to them joking about how they’re going to explain to the other girls why Tim doesn’t have his shirt on.

Then it cuts back to Christina talking to the girls wondering if they are just trying to make themselves feel better by wondering what’s going on. Sarah challenges her to go get them. Christina gets up to do that and Hailey says, “No Christina!” The girls freak out a little, but Christina keeps walking to the back room. In a PI, Sara wonders if Tim wants the girls to be aggressive. Scene cuts back to Jenna and Tim shooting pool and Christina comes in.


That's it for now as it's way past my bedtime.

Litta, thank you, it's perfectly detailed,
I've just got out of the bed, hihihih. So good night my dear.

ETA: Here it is! but only 1st hour http://www.putlocker.com/file/2ADE580BEA1C2513

I have always liked Shandi. I really hope if they did end up together that somehow they managed to stay together. It would be neat if all the guys are still with their F1's.

That's it for now as it's way past my bedtime.

You are so sweet to post this, Litta123!

It's been a busy week and I just watched the latest epi's late last night.

I don't want to be a skeptical Sally, but I am still not sure about Tim and Jenna. It certainly appears that they have the most chemistry, but how many of us have been fooled by the "chemistry" edit? Like Matt, I don't see the "substance" with Jenna yet. I'm still holding out for more with Sara and am anxious to see their 1:1 date and first kiss. Her comment in the garden was interesting about Tim not realizing yet how special what they have could be. Sara could be the "hidden" F1...or not. I need more!

Ben, Ben, Ben. He sure is still smitten with Kari at this point in the process. I am not liking this story line at all. He has so many great girls. If he doesn't pick Kari, I'm not sure I can believe he can "get over her" that quickly and "fall in love" with someone else in a matter of weeks. I know Ben says post show he is still with his F1 and in love, but if it isn't Kari, then IMO the feelings developed and grew into love after the show, not on it.

Ernesto is the man! That kiss with Shandi was HOT! I love that he is being particular about who he kisses and not pulling a Ben. Way to go E! I'm not feeling Alba. I don't like what I see of the integrity of her character right now. Show or no show...competition or no competition.

I'm still upset they didn't give this show another chance in a different time slot. It's too bad because I think it has a lot of potential.

ETA: After reading through the contestant threads it looks like Ben picks Angela and Ernesto picks Shandi and they are no longer together. Now if we could only get proof positive for Tim's choice!

I think if the last 2 minutes of that show (E + S kiss) had aired, the ratings would have gone way up

Seriously, to me it is up there in hotness levels with JASH on the beach in Puhkhet, Arie/Em on the balcony during the overnight date and Graham/Michelle in the pool on BPad!

Guess that's my top 4 in no particular order of hottest reality TV kisses. Any suggestion for completing a top 5?
