ha! i guess we all should feel sorry for him, whomever he ended up with  . Too bad Renee, the sweetheart one is out of his league, IMO. Hope she can find a nice American guy IRL.

^^ Renee is definitely the best of the girls! Love her!

Dear lord this season just needs to end. I can't really stand any of these girls other than Renee.

Yes she is! No question. I think she knows it too and from the look on her face, she wants to bolt from the girls that are left. I wish she could be the bachelorette.

Renee IS a sweetheart! I hope she finds a great guy and stepdad for her son, American or otherwise.

This is one season where I'm grateful I really don't have any particular favorite and can be impartial for the most part. was rooting for Chelsie. Now I can just sit back and enjoy the rest of the show. Wait we have a show next Monday and Tuesday?! When do we get Women tell all?

I can get both Nikki's point of view and Clare's from their argument but the way they went about solving it was not good. at least not for me anyways. they were both way too juvenile and too catty.

Cocktail party- talk about awkward with that long pause of silence...

Group date- I liked it. Did anyone else catch the fact that while Clare was sitting next to Juan Pablo, it looked like he was trying to reach for Andi but I think Chelsie was reaching for him instead. LOL

I think Nikki is being herself when she's around Juan Pablo. She does not do well socially, so she doesn't come across as genuine when she is just nervous and doesn't want to participate in what she thought was going to be some back stabbing.

I think she took offense with Clare saying Andi's group date rose was for reassurance as opposed to JP liking Andi and wanting to spend time with her. No point deating where you are uncomfortable. And i found it infuriating that Clare kept interrupting but thought it disrespectful when she was interrupted.

Nikki didnt come up good saying Clare's family must be crazy but clare certainly is

Since JuanPa made it clear that he had planned for Sharleen to have a HTD, it appears that Renee would have gone home along with Chelsea. I think he knows Renee is a wonderful woman and probably realizes that they make sense on paper but apparently she is more in the friend zone.

Curious about what you don't like about Andi as I think she is adorable. By her own admission, this environment is difficult for her as it is difficult for her not to be in control (and with her academic and professional accomplishments, she probably has not had much occasion to practice being out of control) so I think that has been a very stretching experience for her. And I think she was a good sport about her dancing (or lack thereof) skills.

Interested to see what happens next week with her.

She just annoys me for some reason, the crying tonight didn't help as I felt like she was manipulating him into giving her the rose.

I agree & it worked which is what Clare was trying to say! It makes me wonder if he didnt pick anyone ! Weird edits for sure but we know we have SCs to come so the saga continues !

I don't think Nikki is a bitch at all….my goodness, she is so mild compared to past season's villains! I personally think she is awesome and witty! Clare is just nuts.
I wish Nikki wasn't the F1….she would have been a fun Bachelorette!
