As the walk back into hotel, Robby softly says Jojo, thank you for your time.

MM R: when the date card came i jumped up when my name was called
MM J: awww
R: "yes!"

On beach trying on hats:

R: possible', very possible'

MM J: robby is such a great balance of playful and flirty and sensitive

Eating food:
R: cheers to authentic uruguaian food
J:alright, im gonna do this

MM itm J: its all the things you want in somebody and im seeing it first hand how great he is

Eating food, embracing: those were so good

On cliff:
R: were doing some rock climbing here
J: screams then laughs as she losses her balance, robby has her hand
R: lets come over here real quick

On rocks:
Embracing and kissing
R: thanks for bringing me out here
J: thanks for coming with me

On rocks:
R: i think the next step might be to jump, huh? Can i convince you to do that?
J: yeah, i mean i'd rather go with you than anybody else
R: laughs, there you go, thats a good point
J: yeah, no, i love this stuff. I'm a little nervous though, it'll be good
R: we should do it,  you think you can do it?
J: nervously laughing, yeah
R: i can do it if you can do it
J: we'll do it together

VO J: this cliff is pretty steep but its comforting to know that i'm here with robby whos an olympic swimmer. Robbys like this spontaneous, crazy one. This is just the tip of who he is and those are the things i think about when i think about a husband and what our life would be like. Being engaged and thinking about marriage sometimes is scary, but taking risks can lead to great rewards. It makes me excited because i know the potential to fall in love is there.

In water:
VO J: its scary to put yourself out there but i've realized how much i trust robby. He makes me feel alive.***This water in the water, and the part I underlined was difficult to make out clearly. I think that is what she said in that portion of the line.

At dinner:
J: cheers to just an amazing time, something that ive never done before and i'll definitely never forget, and to you for being great

R: i'm an emotional person, i get it from my mom, she cries at every movie she watches
J: laughes, my mom does too

J: you just have this way, i dont even know how to explain it, its like an emotional intelligence in the way that you say thngs that i believe you and i trust you and i feel very safe with you

Robby tells jojo about the death of his friend. She holds his hand, wipes away her own visible tears, and rubs his shoulder. He then tells her that he feels that if he were to hide something from her that he would feel like he was lying to her, when he says hes nervous she rubs his hands, then he tells her that he is in love with her.
J: thank you so much
R: i love you, i do,
J: Awww, giggles, she puts her hand on his neck and pulls him in for a kiss
R: and im not gonna hide it
Kiss, kiss, kiss

VO J: you know it shocked me when he told me he was actually in love with me. But i appreciate so much that hes being so vulnerable and he's so open.
ITMJ:  I've asked him to be like that and hes doing it. And it gives me a lot of faith that everything ive ever wanted from this whole thing is beginning to happen .

Table:
MM J: aww, like that, i cant tell you how much that just meant to me (picks up rose)
R: well im sweating again
J: well dont worry, you continue to surprise me and you telling me that you love me tonight just makes my heart so happy. robby, will you accept this rose?
R: you know i will, with all my heart

Walking outside to beach:
J: you wanna go down here?
R: yes, please

R: its been one of the best days of my life
J: has it?
R: 100% without a doubt
J: promise?
R: i promise
J: i love that you said that
R: it is, its got to be (kiss, then fireworks)
J: laughs
R: stop it! No way, oh my god
J: laughs, isnt this great?
R: its magical
Smiling, touching his face, kissing

VO J: i am so happy being in robbys arms and kissing him. its moments like this that make me believe that i can have a forever future with robby

J: its so pretty!

VO J: it feels so good. I feel adored. I feel cherished. I feel secure.

R: i love you (kisses her, she smiles)

VO J: after tonight i can see myself falling in love with him


****** What *I* love about Robby is how he makes ME feel. He is smiley, joyous, peppy, sweet, witty, flirty, confident. Sometimes it is difficult to separate how the guy makes *US* feel and how the guy makes *the lead* feel. I think the above quotes from Jojo go along way to validate for me that the same ways Robby impresses me are some of the same ways Robby impresses Jojo. That was the purpose of my little exercise. I needed to know that *I* wasn't crazy! I will continue going forward to list, depending upon RL. But, again, I only did this for Robby. I'd be very courious to see how the other guys compare in this manner. Which of course is only one aspect of their nteractions with each man. There's the verbal and the physical and the intangibles.

Some of the VOs above *could* have been added into the edit post-production to fit a storyline. So then I must ask that all important question: What were the editors trying to do by editing episode 5 the way that they did? Was it to fool us to *make us think* Robby had a chance when he really doesn't or was it to finally show us that Robby really, truly has a chance? I think it is the latter!
