Bachelorette Russia - Season 1 - Olga Buzova - Translation - NO Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Sprite wrote:Here we go with episode 5, part 1.

So we start off with the guys arriving in Naples and getting a ride in a minivan with their Italian driver pretty much mouthing off to other drivers the whole way. Typical.

They arrive at an old villa with the most fantastic views of the countryside and Mount Vesuvius across from them. Absolutely beautiful. Another one on my bucket list.

Olga arrives and talks about how things are PRIJATNO...pleasant. I think setting us up for the fight to come which I assume will be anything but pleasant. They are chatting and Evgeny is telling her something that I think is supposed to be funny, but as usual, Olga is not amused by him. Then Denis starts and she is much happier. @Natik, Olga asks him a question and he answers SLATKA...which in Croatian means sweet. Everyone seems to crack up. What did she ask? And then Valja starts and he appears embarrassed by whatever they are talking about. Sasha on the other had looks like someone stuck a stick up his a**. Seriously the dude just looks bored and like he could care less about being there. He doesn't even seem to be trying to fit in with the guys or Olga. Even his ITMs look like he is bored.

Evgeny tries again with a present for Olga and asks Sasha to move over since Sasha is sitting next to Olga. I think he gives her a Lemoncello liqueur, a bracelet and it looks like a piece of lava from one of the eruptions. She is polite. Valja is doing a lot of ITMs during the gift giving and doesn't seem too thrilled. Poor Evgeny. He is trying so hard, but it just is not working. I don't know if he just doesn't see it or if he thinks if he just tries harder she might change her mind...She won't! She doesn't seem too thrilled with what Valja is going on about either.

Next up....Olga's mom coming to chat with the guys! She seems to comment something to Valja. @Natik can you please let us know what her mom talked about with the guys? Mom takes them to a kitchen and I think asks them to cook something. Sasha right away picks dessert and Valja makes some kind of comment about that with a really funny face and vocals? Evgeny picks salad. I think Sergei wanted to do the meat as did Denis, but I think Denis said he would do whatever was left. Mom made a comment about Denis. I wish I could understand it all. She was asking them questions as they were cooking. Did she make a comment about Sasha showing off? And I think she said something about Valja making excuses...as to why he didn't know how to cook? but he did ask for her help and he made some kind of crepe. Then she was not impressed by Sasha who just cut up strawberries and kiwi. The way he jumped at it, I thought he would be making something impressive, but no. Mama doesn't look impressed either.

After everything was finished, Olga joined them up on the terrace. She looked surprised at how good everything looked. I think she thought mom did most of it, but the guys were like she helped. I think Olga would like a guy who can cook. Did her mom say she doesn't cook? I think Olga was trying to guess who made what dish and she had no clue. She seemed to expect Denis to cook well, but seemed impressed by the crepes Valja made and unimpressed by Sasha and his lack of effort...again.

After everything, Olga and mama  went for a little talk. What did mama tell her about the guys?
I don't think she liked Sasha. After, they went back and Olga discussed what they had talked about. What did Olga tell the guys? It seems it came down to Denis and Valja. Did she ask them to decide between them who gets the date with her?

Valja arrives at the marina. Gives her a hug. They were walking along, holding hands and laughing. They go sailing on a yacht.  They did some talking. It seemed to go okay for the most part...and then during her ITM....she seemed to get a little angry. What were they discussing? She was touching him so it couldn't have been all bad.

Back at the villa, mama is back and chatting with the remaining guys. I don't know what is going on with that salad, but she brought it back up again. What were they chatting about here? Mama pulls Denis aside and they go off to chat. He was saying something about learning? … was that after his divorce? Mama seemed to really like him. He kissed her hand just like he does with Olga. I wonder if he does that all the time that charmer? Back to the other guys talking while mama and Denis are off.

Then back to the sailing with Olga and Valja. They are talking and she is laughing. She doesn't look uncomfortable with him...they are standing and he is right behind her with his arm sort of behind her holding on to a post...sort of helping her keep her footing. I don't know why, but in her ITMs, she again looks somewhat ticked off. I don't know what is the issue or if there even is an issue, but she seems okay while with him and then they both turned to the camera and said something to whoever is behind there. A bit odd...apparently he wanted something that was impossible and he was digging himself a hole?

They sailed to Capri and then did some swimming. Valja seemed to loosen up and they appeared to be having fun. When they got out, he hosed her down and even pulled down the backside of her bathing suit....hmmm...She looked very happy in her ITMs and she let him drape the towel around her...along with his arms...hmmm....and I believe she said he is romantic???

And so ends the first half at this somewhat hot moment. Not quite as romantic as the date with Denis, but the best competition thus far. Hmmm....things are getting interesting!

You might want to add the recap I did too of Episode 4 . Are you bringing all the episodes back here in order? That would really be fantastic...I was copying them in my notes for easier access, but this will be good when we are online.
