SEASON FINALE - PART 1




THE TWO-PART SEASON FINALE EVENT BEGINS WITH DESIREE SWEEPING THE FINAL THREE MEN TO THE TROPICAL PARADISE OF ANTIGUA, THEN HEADS TOWARDS AN EMOTIONAL BOMBSHELL THAT NO ONE SAW COMING, ON ABC'S "THE BACHELORETTE"



"Episode 909 -- Season Finale, Part 1" - Romantic adventures await Desiree and the final three men - Brooks, Chris and Drew - as they travel to the beautiful Caribbean island of Antigua. There is electricity and passion in the air during these sand and surf excursions, as Desiree continues to explore what her future would be like with these potential partners. She will spend special intimate time with each of final guys, and there are possible invitations to spend the night in a "fantasy suite." But an unexpected jolt will change Desiree's whole journey -- will her Cinderella fairytale have a happy ending, or is she headed for heartbreak? -- on "The Bachelorette," MONDAY, JULY 29 (8:00-10:01p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.


Desiree's first date is with Drew, and the couple set off to explore the island by jeep. Their sightseeing tour takes them along the coastline where they stop at several cliff-side spots, pose for photos and steal kisses. Then they join the locals at a festival, taking part in the celebration. But Desiree steals Drew away to a quiet secret garden where the two can share a private picnic. Drew, totally love struck, tells her that he is ready to propose. There is no doubt they have a special connection. A sudden tropical rain spoils plans for a beachside dinner, but they take shelter. It's clear that this handsome and sweet guy has captured Desiree's heart, and she invites him to share some alone time in the fantasy suite. But will this reserved man accept?  


Chris and Desiree meet on a picturesque beach, where a helicopter is waiting to take them to a deserted  beach on the island of Barbuda. They reflect on her hometown visit and frolic in the blue ocean water, where the passion is turned up a notch. Later, over a romantic dinner, the couple discuss the possibility of a future together. However Chris has a major obstacle in his path that he feels he needs to bring up to Desiree before things go any further. His career path is not in Los Angeles, and he will need Desiree to relocate. Will this ultimatum not only put a halt to the evening but also their relationship?


Meanwhile, Brooks is back with his family in the U.S., torn between his strong feelings for Desiree when he is with her and the insecurities he feels when he is not. His mom and sister offer heartfelt advice about the tough decision he is facing. Desiree is everything he would want in a wife, and there is no denying their emotional and physical attraction to one another. Brooks wants to make sure that, if he is the last man standing, that he has the confidence to put an engagement ring on her finger. After his mother and sister express their fondness for Desiree and their thoughts about her being a perfect fit for their large, boisterous family, the bachelor, now with the reassurance he needs, boards the plane for Antigua.


Desiree is excited to see Brooks and to spend time with him. But first Brooks has a heart-to-heart with Chris Harrison. When some shocking news is shared, Chris insists that the bachelor meet with Desiree. What unfolds is one of the most explosive, dramatic and emotional moments in "Bachelorette" history.




The three remaining men are:


Brooks, 28, a marketing consultant from Salt Lake City, UT


Chris, 27, a mortgage broker from Seattle, WA


Drew, 27, a digital marketing analyst from Scottsdale, AZ

Blooper Reel Peekaboo



One pattern I have noticed over time is that each Bachelorette season has at least one shot of the F1 guy getting a laughing reaction from the lead. She may laugh at other guys too and her self, but they make sure at least one “window reaction” is provided for her final one. Well… except Jillian’s, but Ed’s drinking scene was a showcase nonetheless.

This is first thing I mentioned last night because I thought it was weird that the rumored "winner" was not featured at all. In all my years going back to Blob I have never seen that happen. It sent up a HUGE red flag for me.

It may just be that they don't want her to react to anything Brooks before the drama next epi.

I do think that the episode description sounds like Chris could be the f1 because now he has a problem to overcome.

It could just be a peculiar coincidence that none of us should fuss over, but both Brooks and Drew were mysteriously MIA in the bloopers except in the background crowd scenes. Brooks comes off as a laid back, fun loving guy so this was particularly alarming. He is frequently smiling on screen. You would EXPECT him to be included. Drew... OK. I can see him as too serious minded to be showcased, although I could still see some good-nature joking around about his hair or something, like the way Ryan and Ben joked about "robotic" Ames in Ashley's.

Wasn't it Drew who got hit in the face with a ball?

[JBF]

I had to go back and re-watch. Hardly recognized him! Hmmm... hit by a ball?

Hey BM - I am upset for both Chris and Drew. Its a messed up situation and no one will be ok with the ending. CH is right in that respect.

Thanks, ND. I know people will say that these guys signed up for it but I find it particularly cruel this season, maybe because the lead expressed her love for the F1 so early and so blatantly in the season. And even if the spoilers ended up being wrong and Drew or Chris ended up being F1, I don't think I'd want that for them. Not if that person cannot fully give them their whole heart

Well, Chris certainly got the F1 date. If memory serves me well, the guy/gal chosen to hang out on deserted beach with nothing to do but "frolic"  and makeout with the Bach/ette is usually the lead contender.

And, as far as any concern with Des moving to be with Chris, I am positive that I heard her say in an interview that she would happily move for her F1.

From where I am standing as a long, long, long time viewer of this silly show, I vote for Chris as F1. Strongly. And, that's not just my preference but all signs point to him from the special gifts that she gives him to telling him that she wanted to meet her parents a few weeks back to her delight last night in seeing his blooper.

But, as I said in the episode thread, if the spoilers are correct, I think all this B.S. with Brooks is just a bunch of producer manipulation of both Des and Brooks. And, in the process, all four of them get dragged through the mud all in the name of drama & ratings. Yuck!

Sorry, I've had a busy weekend but is brooks fd the day after chris'?

I think it goes Chris, Brooks, Drew.

But is it the very next day after chris?

Sorry, the press release came out and it says Drew, Chris, Brooks. I don't know if there is a rest day between.

Well, MVMom...you just address whats in my head and my heart perfectly!!. ..yes...there is still a possibility for Chris as the F1, since he is now having an obstacle to overcome with Des. and yes, i can recall Des have stated that she is willing to move for her F1. so all is good in Chrisville, i guess.. . But im still remain cautious to your last bolded. If indeed happen, it would be the worst thing ever!!...i wonder how can i develop this strange love/hate relationship with this crazy show?......
