Bachelor Pad - I would pay $62,500 to spend a day with Michael



If you aren't watching Bachelor Pad, shame on you!  Last night's episode was an instant classic.

Those who know me, know that I love spelling and even more I love spelling bees.  When Harrison announced that the challenge was going to be a spelling bee between all of the morons I knew we were in for some comedy gold.   Ed spell cockamamie uhhhh c-o-c-k-a-m-a-y.  Blakeley spell obsessive, no problem o-b-e-e-s-v.  Lindzi spell Lindsay, you want me to spell my own name? L-i-n-d-z-i.  Sorry in the literate world Lindsay is spelled L-I-N-D-S-A-Y.  Lindzi also went on to spell jewelry wrong.

The main focus of the episode was on poor Rachel who has to go on the next four days of taping without Michael Stagliano.  How will she ever survive.  She mentioned Michael approximately 84 times in the two hour episode.  At one point she states the money is just not worth being without Michael.  So if I add it up that means you are willing to pay $62,500 per day to hang out with Michael.  Trust me Rachel, if he saw last night's episode you are getting dropped.

I loved when the girls were all hanging out talking about what they would do with the money and Rachel said she would go on a dream vacation, Blakeley chimed in that she could finally afford cable?  To which Jaclyn chimed in "you won't have to wax vag*&% any more."  Too good!  Which begs the question has there ever been a better combination of hot v. crazy than Blakeley, I think not.


Chris and Sarah eventually win the spelling bee after 14 sudden death rounds of missed word after missed word, I thought that thing was going until the end of time.   They get the overnight date to wine country where Chris oddly admits that he is still getting over his relationship with Emily.  You are now classifying the two dates you went on with Emily as a relationship you need to get over?  Don't sweat it man, she is already cheating on Jef by sexting with Matt Leinart.  Chris goes on to have a roll in the hay with Sarah, did we forget that this cute little Sarah is the same girl that had drunken sex with Ed in week one?

You know Matt Leinart, former Trojan, Heisman Trophy Winner and Hot Tub Legend:



Leinart Used This Same Line When Texting Emily

Speaking of drunken sex, Ed and Jaclyn as a consolation prize get to go on an overnight date.  The awkwardness that started last week when Ed sternly told Jaclyn they were not a couple only got worse when Ed admits that he is in love with a girl back home.   Despite completely shutting Jaclyn down and telling her he felt like she wanted him to update his status on facebook Jaclyn proceeds to give it up again.  Hey if drunken sex doesn't make him fall in love the first 15 times try 16.

In the end Kalon made a desperate plea to get rid of Nick and Rachel and ABC contrived some drama to make it seem as if there was a chance that Nick and Rachel would get voted off, however alas Kalon and Lindzi were sent packing.  In a romantic gesture Kalon joing Lindzi in her limousine and talks about how he is the big winner since he found Lindzi.  Isn't this the same delta bravo that flew into the Bachelorette on a helicopter and acted a fool for the whole season?   What a change of heart he has had.  I was disappointed to seem him go as he seemed like the best candidate to not split the money with his partner at the end.

Four couples remain and based  on the previews some serious drama awaits.
