She is not a great actress yet she managed to be normal and have fun barely a week after the bottom of her world opened up ?

YES!  That's the other thing I was thinking.. how the heck is she full recovered and smiling and having a great time with CHris at what looks to be LCD. This shit is driving me crazy!

And possibly going on the LCD date with Drew since we have SCs for that also. Though I don't know if the horses and crying was LCD or not. But at least she went on in so what does that say about her love for Brooks.
Not too much.

We still haven't heard the 'I'm as in love as I've ever been'.

I don't get anything.  

You don't get that she was happy and normal ? sorry what ?

No, that I don't get how she has the steamiest FD with Drew and then turn around and pick Chris?  Doesn't make sense.

Well, its he least he could do after insinuating the poor guys is a homosexual for the last 4 weeks! Mills is an idiot!

Drew was an absolute doll 2nite! He has really grown on me! Michael said he was funny as hell and so much more than they are showing. After tonight, it looks pretty clear that he will be the next Bachelor!

atem, how much can she be "falling in love with Chris" and say the words "I am hopeful for a proposal and with Brooks" tonight!?
That was direct to camera, no VO, no edit slicing and dicing. She said to CH. Period.

not sure if this has been posted or not, but just re-watched with my trusty stop-watch.

Zak... first half 5.31 mins, second half 9.42 for a total of 15:13.  at the beginning was a squirel  

Drew... first half 6.36 mins, second half 6.25 mins for a total of 13.01. at the beginning was a rabbit  

Chris... first half 5.06 mins, second half 10.36 mins for a total of 15.42 mins.  no little animals were sacrificed for Fleiss :shocked!: 

Brooks... first half 5.23 mins, second half 8.32 mins for a total of 13.55 mins.  at the beginning were the pair of ducks   

not that any of this means anything, but the supposed 2 that she has the strongest feelings for had the least amount of time.  Zak had the longest time.

edited to correct my last sentence... Chris had the longest time, Zak was second, Brooks was third and Drew was fourth

That's interesting because I also felt like we got more substance from the shortest ones...Drew and Brooks!

With Chris, I didn't get why they kept harping on the EX-gf, especially since it had NEVER come up before (or did I miss it) and him being afraid to be hurt. It almost came out of nowhere for me and didn't fit with confident Chris they had been presenting all season! Weird.

Chris had the most from your calculations.

Well getting an adjustment from his had and Chris getting his nose cleaned took a little time.:hidingchair 

I was underwhelmed by Chris' HTD. It just seemed so blah and it's hard to see where Des has fallen for him.

Brooks' family seemed nice and welcoming. It was my 2nd favorite of the HTDs.  Drew's was the best for me. Loved his family & he was just beaming the whole time. The outtake at the end was so cute. I really want him to be the Bachelor.  

I'm kind of annoyed they're showing Des talk about loving Brooks and hoping for a proposal. It makes me feel worse for the other guys and you know they wouldn't show it if it were smooth sailing.

MF said we will be "shocked" by how it ends...and yes, I will be shocked if it's anybody but Brooks because I just don't see how she could pick anyone else now.

If her F1 is Chris or Drew then I genuinely feel bad that he (and his friends & family) has had to sit through this week and the next two weeks of Des confessing her love for Brooks, wanting his proposal, and then wanting to go home when things with Brooks don't go the way she wants. At this point, I hope for his sake that Brooks does NOT leave because it would already be hard not to feel like the consolation prize. At least if he stays they had more of fighting chance to say will I won in the end. Regardless, it doesn't seem like enough time for her to get from point A to point B.
