Joe the Psycho?

The Bachelor Gossip, framed

Suzanne Coleman, MD

We all gasped in horror as we listened to the things that Joe Bailey said on “Bachelor in Paradise” this past season, didn’t we?!  What a psycho…

Watching the new talk segment that followed the show, I heard one of the guests call Joe a sociopath.  What do you think, is that what’s wrong with him?

If you have been following my “Bachelor” blog, you know that I wrote a piece last season about Carly, yes the same Carly who was just on “Paradise,” asking if SHE was a sociopath.  If you haven’t read it, you should.  It covers all of the basics on how to tell if someone is a sociopath.  Important stuff!

While she may have seemed heartless on “The Bachelor,” on “Paradise,” Carly seemed pretty normal, though I do need to add that I only watched about half of the show.  Seeing her again in a different setting and under different circumstances, it was clear that her edited comments on “The Bachelor” made her seem like a terrible person.  Also, “The Bachelor” didn’t show enough of Britt’s bad behaviors to explain WHY Carly was so annoyed by her, and this helped contribute to our negative impression of Carly.  I think that now that most of us have learned more about Britt, we can understand Carly’s reactions to her much better.

So, back to Joe.  Is he really a cold, heartless bastard?  Or is it just another case of editing-gone-wild?  That, I couldn’t tell you.  But what we saw of him on the show sure does make it seem like he has no compassion for other human beings, doesn’t it?

That’s basically what defines a sociopath, a person who doesn’t have the capacity to care about others.  It is also someone who believes that the laws and rules of society don’t apply to them.  They do whatever they want and think that they will get away with it.  They don’t care about how their actions, or inactions, affect others.

This psychiatric disorder affects an estimated 1% of the human population, but it’s much more common in males than in females.  Here are the numbers as estimated by the US government:

One out of 75 men is a sociopath.

One out of 300 women is a sociopath.

It is really quite a common disorder.  Once you start to understand this you will realize how many sociopaths you have known.  They may be your boss, your co-worker, an ex, a family member, a neighbor… the list goes on.

So now that you know all of this, what can you do to protect yourself?  Stay very far away.

This psychiatric disorder is essentially untreatable and incurable.  Sociopaths are harmful towards others.  Someone doesn’t have to be a mass-murderer to be a sociopath, and I think that’s something that most of us used to think.  A sociopath can be that person who screws over other people at work, or in a relationship.  They have no empathy.  They hurt other people, and sometimes they think it’s funny to do so.  “Incurable” means that no matter how much time one spends trying to help someone like this, it is almost impossible to change them.  It would be a waste of time and energy, and will usually end up harming the person trying to help.

I hope that this article helped to bring this disorder to light.  Please share with your friends and family so that they don’t become the next victim of a sociopath, because they are EVERYWHERE.

“… And Carry a Big Stick”

Well good, Tim Cook finally acted.  As the CEO of a massive company, a big part of your job is managing your reputation.  Apple has historically done that quite well, especially with often overly-aggressive legal actions.  But in the last few months, they have sat passively by while their company has been defamed by “journalist” after “journalist.”  Manipulating public opinion by manipulating reports is sleazy, but since we as a society have lost most of our journalistic quality over the last few years, companies and individuals need to step up and act when necessary.

And let’s define necessary as when your investors are being destroyed due to false statements of fact meant to deliberately manipulate public opinion and therefore your stock price.  Yeah, let’s start with that.

I was going to call investor relations today (yes I own Apple stock, which you probably know by now) and have a conversation with them about this issue.  A nice class-action lawsuit brought by investors against reporters who spread falsehoods about Apple just might be what is needed to revive journalistic integrity.

I know, most of you have probably never heard of that…

What is causing all of this anger towards Kaitlyn? Find out here!

There’s been a lot of conversation surrounding the behavior of many fans towards Kaitlyn, the current Bachelorette.  I wanted to take a minute to talk about that.

You might be surprised to learn what the reasons are that some of these people are acting this way.  Have you ever heard of obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD)?  You might have heard of obsessive-compulsive disorder because it’s been talked about quite a bit on TV over the last decade or so.  Well, OCPD isn’t the same thing, though they have some things in common.

OCPD is where the word “fan” originally came from, well that was back when the full word was used, “fanatic.”  OCPD are people who are literally obsessed and feel compelled to act on those obsessions.  This can be an obsession with anything or anyone.  It can obsessions with famous people, someone down the street, religious ideas, political issues, and more.  The problem comes when the person isn’t able to see clearly and rationally due to their illness, and then acts in an unhealthy way, for themselves and/or others.

With Kaitlyn, her choices this season (and the choices of the producers of the show “The Bachelorette”) have struck a nerve with a good number of people.  Some of the people who have had a problem with her decisions have lashed out at her, becoming degrading and verbally abusive.  This is their attempt to control her behavior, which obviously they have no right to try and do.  But, because people who behave this way often have OCPD or trait, their obsessive disease forces them to express their opposition to what she has done in forceful ways, and that is called compulsion.

In addition, people with personality disorders are generally inflexible and have difficulty compromising with others.  This often becomes an issue when they cannot accept others’ different points of view or life choices.  So when they are faced with someone who lives their life in a way that isn’t one that they would choose, or that they have been told to believe is “right,” then this causes them a lot of internal angst and they can lash out as a result.

Most people with this disorder aren’t aware that they have it and don’t know how to get the help they need in order to stop the problems that it can cause.  OCPD and other personality disorders are not uncommon, in fact one out of every seven people in the US has a personality disorder.  Those who have them will generally benefit from counseling which can literally change their lives for the better.  It’s important to understand that these are diseases, no different than diabetes and high-blood pressure.  And like those diseases, they also require treatment and monitoring to get them under control.  In this case, counseling with a therapist qualified to treat personality disorders and abnormal personality traits is what is needed.

The people who have these disorders do not choose to be impacted this way by their illness, and no one should lash out at them or be hateful towards them in response.  Instead, look at this as an opportunity to be compassionate towards those who cannot control their impulses, try to lead them to the help that they need in a supportive manner.

Also note that OCPD isn’t the only underlying reason for abusive behavior, but I have found that it is a very common one.  There are other personality types that abuse as well, including borderline PD, anti-social PD, and narcissistic PD.  Helping to increase the understanding of the reasons behind why some people do what they do might just lead some people to get the help they need to live a happier and healthier life.

Never hesitate to seek out help from a professional, it just might be the best thing you ever did!  And I always tell people, if one counselor isn’t working out for you, just find a different one.  It’s your health and it’s your decision.

These Guys have some SERIOUS SCORES to settle with Kaitlyn!

The Bachelorette Gossip, capitals regular font and verdana for %22gossip%22by,

Before we experience the insanity that is going to be Monday’s “After the Final Rose, The Men Tell All,” I think it’s time to take a step back and review what has happened with the men that are going to be on that show.  Now, remember, these are the poor guys that Kaitlyn rejected, often pretty badly.

Let’s start with Chris, the dentist, Cupcake.  This poor guy was whisked off on a super romantic date to the high cliffs of Ireland over-seeing the ravaging ocean.  On the cozy helicopter ride there, Kaitlyn was all over him, flirting and giving him all the right signals.  They land and start to have a meal, then somehow out of NOWHERE, this girl just dumps his sweet little behind.  This dude was smacked in the face blind-sided, there is NO DOUBT about it.  He was kicked in the face with the hind-hooves of a donkey breying.  That girl is about the worst breaker-uper I have ever seen, seriously, for real.

So she leaves the poor guy stunned and alone on the edge of a freaking cliff and he starts to sob like his whole life is OVER because she isn’t into him.  He steps near the edge of the cliff, like he’s about to jump, and the TV crew moves to pull him back when he steps back on his own.  Seriously, what was that all about?  That is pretty scary.  Dude needs to talk to a counselor and the producers need to keep these guys away from the edges of CLIFFS!!  I hope he’s there on Monday…

Ok, then there’s Joe.  Good old Joe, a little too slow to get into Kaitlyn’s… heart?  She slammed him upside the head with a heavy brick when she kicked him to the curb.  Complete blindside, it seemed to him, to us, maybe not so much.  The poor guy didn’t see it coming and he didn’t react well.  Will he give Kaitlyn the piece of his mind that she deserves?  Or will the show script it to something nice and pleasing?  (I.e. BORING)

Now, when she let Ben H. go, it wasn’t so bad.  It was during a rose ceremony and he was basically like, eh, ok.  It was no big deal.  It seemed pretty obvious that he was trying to make something work with Kaitlyn, but he wasn’t really feeling much of anything for her.  It seems like his past relationships may have messed him up to the point where he can’t really judge what he truly wants and needs.  The news is that he’s going to be the next bachelor, so I hope he finds a good match there.  He’s so young, he has time.

What about good ole Brady, will he even be there?  If he is, I bet Britt will be there too.  If so, will it all be about Britt and her pretty, pretty hair?  🙂  I guess we’ll have to wait and see.  I can already imagine how it’s going to go down:  we get to watch as Britt tosses her hair around and tries to use her eyes to get what she wants; all of the while she’s saying “Kaitlyn?  Kaitlyn who?”

Oh gosh, who can forget about Clint and JJ?  (Well, to be honest, I almost did.)  These two were a show in and of themselves.  It’s too bad it got cut short when the, um, a**h*** Clint was finally seen for what he was by Kaitlyn, and got sent home.  Clint immediately turned on his supposed friend JJ and verbally and emotionally abused him.  What a dick.  I hope he gets the counseling he desperately needs.

The other UGH of the season, creeper Ian will be there according to the promos.  Really, I have ZERO interest in what this “person” has to say about anything or anyone.  NEXT!

I’m sure that the young-un Jared will be there.  Dude, PUHLEASEE shave that face!  O.M.G.  Dude.  Seriously.  Ok, that’s all.  He clearly wasn’t in love with Kaitlyn, unless you count puppy love.  That boy is way too young for an adult relationship, or at least that’s how he seems.  He’ll get there.

The rest of the guys didn’t really make enough of an impression on me to include them here.  I think Monday will be pretty interesting to watch, that’s for sure.  There will certainly be some CRAAAZY stuff going down.  I will see you there!

Team NICK vs. Team SHAWN

The Bachelorette Gossip, capitals regular font and verdana for %22gossip%22by,

Suzanne Coleman

So which team are you?  We’re down to the wire and it’s all about Team Nick vs. Team Shawn!  I think people are more divided now than they were during our national elections!

Everybody’s got an opinion, in fact there is even a Team Nobody, Screw Kaitlyn!  So where do you fall?

Team Nick:

Curly-haired hottie who shares what seem to be real emotions with the Canadian Bachelorette, it’s hard to think he’s faking it, but he might be…  Will he end up her beau?

Team Shawn:

The greaser from I don’t know where who has a very nice body and doesn’t mind running around naked on golf courses for his girl (and the millions of viewers of the show)!  He’s ready to fight “THAT OTHER GUY” to the death over Kaitlyn.  (Wow, he’s SO MATURE!… NOT.)

Speaking of which, when Nick and Shawn were left standing alone together in the ballroom after the last rose ceremony, they circled each other, and their eyes avoided meeting; it was very tense.  I thought they were about to go all-out crazy and start fighting right then and there!  But they didn’t.  It was rather, boring, instead.  Oh well, there’s always the next installment!  I think mud wrestling would be pretty nice to watch lol 😉  Plus, it would fit right in to this season’s themes.

Team Nobody, Screw Kaitlyn:

Well, if you are on Facebook AT ALL, this seems to be the biggest Team this season.  I feel bad for Kaitlyn, it’s pretty harsh.  And after all of that negativity, I wonder where the show is going to go after this.

With all of that said, I can’t WAIT to see what Happens on “The Men Tall All” on Monday night!  Squee!!!  These two final contenders can wait while we hear what the men that Kaitlyn rejected have to say about their experience.  Plus, I heard that Kaitlyn is going to be addressing some of the mean things people have been saying about her.  That should prove interesting…  Will you be watching?  I KNOW I will!  🙂

Hey guys, I just heard that Ben H. who Kaitlyn let go just this Monday is supposed to be the next Bachelor!  Wow, what a cutie that guy is 🙂  I think that should be a good show.  I just hope he shows a little more emotion and personality than he did on this season.  He’s got the looks, that is for sure.

There’s NO WAY that’s going to happen on Monday’s “The Bachelorette!!!”

For the first time in “Bachelorette” history, they’re breaking ALL of the rules!  Tune in for Monday’s episode to see the most dramatic show EVER.

We all know that Kaitlyn has a taste for the wild side.  Well Monday night it may just go TOO FAR!  For the first time in “Bachelorette” history they will be airing a two-on-one overnight!!!  Can you believe this?  How could the show let things go this far?

Kaitlyn has got to learn to control her hormones.  She just HAS to bring two men into her fantasy suite at one time!  The problem is, they’re not only hot for her, but they’re hot for each other.  Yes, it’s true, but don’t tell anyone, it will be Nick and Shawn together!  I know, it’s insane.  No one knows WHAT will happen!

We all know that Kaitlyn has a love affair with the strange and unusual, and this encounter just may top all of her prior group dates, put together.  And they’re letting the cameras roll people, for the whole thing!  You just have to pay extra to watch the best parts on cable later that night.

Who do you think will perform to Kaitlyn’s best expectations?!  Will it be Nick, the Chicago underdog whom so many people love to hate?  Or will it be Shawn, the guy everybody was rooting for, until he got REALLY annoying?!  Stay tuned here to find out.  It’s ALL GOING TO BE SO INSANE I CAN’T STAND IT!

You had SEX with That “OTHER GUY?!”

The Bachelorette Gossip, capitals regular font and verdana for %22gossip%22

Oh boy, what is happening here!?

First of all, before I start writing, let me take a second and wipe the STEAM off of my glasses!  PhEW!  That Kaitlyn and her Nick… woo hoo!  There they go again lol.  🙂

Ok, I’ve taken a moment and composed myself, here we go with the good stuff from tonight’s episode of “The Bachelorette.”

The kids are still in Ireland, no one is sure why they haven’t been able to go to a new location, but this one is quite beautiful.  Kaitlyn starts out with a romantic one-on-one date with the remaining Ben.  Boy, he is a cutie!  He has been compared to Bobby Brady from “The Brady Bunch,” a TV show from a few decades ago.  These two seem to have good chemistry and he comes across as a great guy to be with.

He reveals to Kaitlyn that he has doubts that he is good enough to be with anyone because of his past relationships.  She reassures him that he IS good enough as far as she’s concerned and then they kiss.  And kiss…

She brings up the fantasy suite and he says something like “yeah it’ll be great to get to TALK to you all night long,” and she’s like, “uh, TALK?!”  She grimaces.  By now, we know that Kaitlyn likes herself some booty!  So just talking isn’t going to work for her.  She wonders to herself if he’s a virgin.  Then she asks him out loud, and he’s like “Whoa girl!” and then he answers her, “Um, no, I’m not.”  She laughs heartily.  THAT was awkward.

I’m thinking that just might be the word of the season, AWKWARD, what do you think?

The good thing for Ben though was that at no point does she tell him to get to stepping, so he’s safe, for now!  But, that’s HIS story.  Next we move on to a three-on-one date with the worst pairing ever, Shawn and Nick.  Yikes… we could see some serious fireworks on this date.  Just not the good kind.

Kaitlyn says she “has to tell Shawn” that she slept with Nick.  She’s worried that he’ll find out after the show airs.  I guess that’s the difference between real life and TV.  In the real world, you could choose not to share all of your personal experiences in detail with someone you are dating.  But because she’s on TV, it makes sense that she feels like she needs to to tell him now.  BUT, what I don’t get, is why the heck she doesn’t tell Nick that she is going to do it before she does.  Don’t you think he has a right to know that this very personal information is going to be shared with other guys in the house?  I mean, especially since Shawn seems like he’s about to murder him at almost every turn?  Give the guy a heads up, and really, if you respected him at all, you’d get his input on telling Shawn before you just went ahead and did it.

But before Kaitlyn can tell Shawn, Nick comes up to have some one-on-one time with her.  Afterwards, they walk back to the group and Kaitlyn makes the move to spend some alone time with Joe.

When they’re together, Joe gets serious and tells her that he is truly in love with her and he can see a life with her.  It’s pretty romantic; he seems like really great guy.  But instead of a smiling at him when he tells her this, Kaitlyn just stares at him with this weird look on her face.  It’s SO awkward.

And then, here it comes boys and girls, she dumps him.

I’m starting to see a pattern here… and it isn’t pretty.

Gee Kaitlyn, get the guy to say he’s in love with you, and then, just dump his ass.  We know you have no heart now.  Poor Joe…  he finally opens up and it’s the end of him.

Joe doesn’t know what he’s supposed to do after that ridiculous end to their “relationship” and Kaitlyn isn’t much help.  They both wander around like brain-dead zombies for a minute – which feels like an eternity to those of us watching them suffer through it- and finally Kaitlyn just walks off leaving Joe there stunned and upset.

After that disaster, Kaitlyn goes back to the other two guys, who had a feeling Joe was dust, and tells them what’s next.  She sends Nick back to the hotel and meets up with Shawn alone later that night.  She didn’t get the chance to tell him about having had sex with Nick like she wanted to earlier, so this was the time to do it.

As they sit on the couch, Shawn and Kaitlyn facing each other, she is nervous, but she goes ahead and tells him that she and Nick had sex.  His response was actually really calm, for some reason I thought he would start screaming at her, he seems like such an emotionally pent-up guy.  Luckily, that didn’t happen (this time).  He seems to really be into her, because he says that he thinks the long-term is what matters and he’s willing to keep moving forward with her.  Sounds like he’s a keeper.

Meanwhile Nick is going crazy back at the hotel trying to figure out if he’s on the chopping block.  He tries to analyze his week with Kaitlyn and realizes that he had much less time with her than any of the other remaining guys.  Uh oh.  He is afraid that he might not get a rose this week, and it shows.  The other guys sit politely as Nick tells them how he is feeling.

At the Rose Ceremony, Kaitlyn looks awesome in this crazy mirrored dress, very cool!  She tries to give a rose to Shawn, but he has to talk to her first.  He is very upset about the whole having-sex-with-Nick thing (legitimate), but she says, hey listen, you have to trust me.  In the end, he does and gladly accepts her rose.  The next rose goes to Ben, with much less drama.

At this point there is only one rose left!  It looks like Kaitlyn is going to leave Nick behind, and Shawn sure hopes that she will!  He still calls him “the other guy,” wow, what warmth 😉  His animosity towards Nick just builds after he learns that he had sex with Kaitlyn.  Can you imagine being in that position?  Luckily, no punches are thrown.  Yet…

So here we are, at the last rose and it’s down to scruffy-boy Jared and cutie pie Nick (I know, tons of you disagree 🙂 ).  It’s tense, they’re both biting their lips and looking nervous.  I was nervous too!  I was worried she was going to dump Nick, but instead, she made him sweat it out by giving him the last dramatic rose.

It turned out that Jared was the one she said her last goodbye to tonight.  I think he’s too young for her, though he seems like a good guy.  She was really broken up about it, which shows she does have SOME heart in her.  She said he was a great person but their relationship just wasn’t moving at the same speed as her other ones.

So now Kaitlyn is down to her final three men!  And they jump into the first overnight date experience right away.  It’s her and Nick.  She is wearing this amazing white dress with cutout designs.  They are walking through the local Irish town, hand in hand; it’s not shocking that they are having a great time together.

Later, they are alone having dinner, talking, and Nick says something really disgusting that Shawn supposedly said, but Kaitlyn doesn’t seem to think it’s gross.  But it REALLY is (to normal people).  That makes me wonder about her A LOT.  So, yeah, I’m not really sure what else to say about that.  She acts like that comment was just Nick and Shawn being competitive over her super hot ass.  Nick says he’s glad they can talk about anything and that that makes him feel so comfortable with her.  True, that’s pretty critical for a healthy and successful relationship.  Still hating him guys?   Let me know.

When it’s time for them to do the fantasy suite (come on, did you really think he’d say no?! lol), Kaitlyn leads him into a dungeon jail cell, cold, dark, and small.  There are two twin mattresses there on the floor.  It looks like it’s for real.  He’s like, um, ok, I guess if that’s what I have to do…  And she breaks out laughing saying something like “hel-lo!  There’s no way this is where we’re staying tonight.”  I have to admit it totally cracked me up, good one girl.  Very funny.

So they go up to the REAL fantasy suite and it takes but a second for them to get into bed together.  Nick runs his hand along her behind and down her thigh (WARNING ADULT CONTENT- oops… I should have put that first…) and then caresses her there.  I’m thinking, whoa this is getting to be like soft core porn, again.  Then he gets up and closes the bedroom door, thus ending the scene.  Oh well lol.  We all KNOW what’s coming…

The next morning he and Kaitlyn have breakfast together, it’s so cute.  He looks very fine without his shirt on, you’ve got to admit it girls!  When they separate and he goes back to his own room, that peaceful feeling is shattered as Shawn comes a-knocking to give him a piece of his mind.

Shawn starts telling Nick off.  I thought it was pretty funny when Shawn says he wanted to be upfront and tell Nick to his face what he was thinking, and not act like “the other guys” who just talked about Nick behind his back.  Um, right, Shawn, that’s what’s been going on the whole time, you never said a single bad thing about Nick.  And that, my friends, deserves another good “LOL.”

To sum up their “conversation,” Shawn basically tells Nick that he just sucks.  And Nick says in response something like, “you haven’t even tried to get to know me.”  But Shawn is convinced that Nick is just a piece of crap with no real interest in Kaitlyn.

Boy, this is ….  AWKWARD!

Yeah, so it basically went like that.  The rest of what happens is coming up on the next episode of “The Bachelorette!”  What do you think it will be?

That’s all for now folks, stay tuned for more Bachelorette Gossip to come!

Kaitlyn makes all of the Big Boys Cry :(

So what happened on tonight’s episode of “The Bachelorette?”

I think that the most important thing that we see on tonight’s episode is that Kaitlyn has learned her lesson.  Sleeping with Nick, while clearly enjoyable for both of them, put her in an uncomfortable position with her other ongoing relationships.  She feels upset about that, and realizes that it wasn’t the best idea.  She realizes that it might compromise what she is building with the other men for the long-term.

Interestingly enough, though, it was an off-camera talk that she apparently had with Shawn that really caused her the most angst.  We learn from Shawn that she told him that he was pretty much “the one” for her.  Tonight she said that she did it in an attempt to make him feel less stressed out about the whole process.  She didn’t realize that he took her words so much to heart, and that put her in an awkward position.

She still has real feelings for the other guys and because of that she realized she shouldn’t have said that to Shawn.  So on tonight’s episode Kaitlyn tried to back-peddle her relationship with Shawn, slowing things down.   I’m not sure that it worked.  She wasn’t the clearest communicator but it seems like he got the message.  In the end, the whole thing really just made Shawn more stressed out than he already was!  Oh well, this is a great lesson for everyone.  Think about the impact of what you say and do before you say or do it.  You just might be saving yourself and others lots of upset if you do.

I think tonight also answered a lot of questions about Nick.  When Kaitlyn talked to him about keeping their private time private because she has been worried that the other guys will find out, he was upset because he is a classy guy and had no intentions of going around telling anyone about it.  His honest feelings came through when they were talking, as his eyes welled up with tears.  He had some difficultly speaking at times too.  He seems to be sincerely interested in a real relationship with her, and not a guy who just plays around.

So after delving into all of these intense relationship feelings, the show finally got around to a new date at the END of the show!  Boy, they’re really playing around with the show’s format this season.

It’s a one-on-one date and Kaitlyn flies Cupcake off over the ocean in a helicopter to some cool Irish cliffs where they have a romantic picnic lunch overlooking the expansive sea.  It was pretty awesome, until Kaitlyn opened up to Cupcake that it was over, she just wasn’t feeling it.  Like so many of us, she couldn’t move forward with someone, no matter how great he was, if the feelings just weren’t there for her.  So she let him go, crying because it was so hard for her.

She took off in her private helicopter, leaving him there with their picnic basket and blanket, and he breaks down sobbing.  Poor guy 😦  Then they suddenly show him standing at the very edge of the cliffs, um, YIKES!!  One of the crew members moves towards him as if they are going to grab him back, and just then he steps back away from the edge on his own.  Geez, too scary dude.  Good thing there wasn’t an updraft.  Always be safe.

Back to Bachelorette business.  We learn that for the rest of the season, there are going to be some big changes.  Chris Harrison tells Kaitlyn that next week she is supposed to have sex with three different men.  Oh wait, he didn’t exactly say that, did he?  Well, that’s how it came across for some reason…

So next week she will have “intimate time” with three of the guys, the other three will be gone before that.  Then out of the three remaining, she picks only two to go to their homes and meet their families.  It’s weird that they’re changing it up like that all of a sudden, I wonder why?

Also weird is that Chris Harrison suddenly returned to the show today.  Where has this dude been?  He looks healthy, so it’s probably not that he’s been sick, which is good.  I heard that he got divorced, so maybe it’s something to do with that.  At first I thought that they were going to replace him with someone else, maybe someone younger and hotter?  I guess we’ll see.

The other really weird thing is that Chris Harrison is shown telling Kaitlyn that she should tell the other guys about her having had sex with Nick.  At least this is what it seems he is saying.  No one would advise her to do that in their right mind!  That seems so strange.  I’ll bet that it’s not what he’s really trying to do, and they’re just editing it to look like that, because if he is, then that is SO FAKE.  🙂

I’ll end with this, the funniest part of tonight’s episode was actually the commercial for “Bachelor in Paradise.”  If you missed it, try and google it.  It shows Claire and a raccoon having a conversation; it totally made me laugh!  See you soon guys!  For those of you who love to laugh, check out this parody of “The Bachelorette!”

So what’s going to go down on Monday’s episode of “The Bachelorette?!”  Picture this!

Opening scene:

Kaitlyn had SUCH a good time with her boy Nick last week that she just can’t help herself, she has to have MORE!  Mmmmm!  So the first thing she does is grab her hottie while the other guys’ backs are turned and sneaks him upstairs.

But, while she and Nick are having some “private time” in the upstairs suite, Shawn gets antsy and comes up the stairs looking for “his girl.”

Shawn walks up to her bedroom doors and stops, he hears some noises coming from behind them.  He figures it’s just Kaitlyn getting ready and he opens up the door and pops his head in.  As his head enters the room, we see him recoil in surprise as tears fill his eyes and his mouth drops open.  “What are you DOING?!” he screams.

All of the other men are downstairs when they hear this manly scream ring out from above.  Several of them drop their champagne glasses, and the liquid flows all over the floor.  They clumsily jump to their feet, looking around at each other and saying “what the heck is going on?!”  Half of them are wasted off of their asses and can’t seem to stand up straight.  No one knows what is happening, so thinking that Kaitlyn is in some kind of danger, a bunch of them run upstairs in varying states of manliness.  Joe slips and falls on the wet red tiles.

Meanwhile, behind the door, Kaitlyn unwraps herself from the curly-haired, sweaty man she can’t stay away from and gasps!  “Oh, no!”  They have been discovered.

She quickly runs to the door, partly covering herself up as she goes.  She stammers something to Shawn, who is now wandering around in the hall, staring into space, muttering unintelligibly to himself.  She closes the door and leans against it.

“Nick!” she says, “we need to get out of here NOW.  You are in danger, the guys are going to KILL you!”  “… And maybe me…” she adds as an afterthought.

She looks around the room.  How will they escape?

She spots the ornate double French doors that lead out to the sunny stone-railinged balcony.  That’s it!  She pulls the half-naked sexy man out from her bed.  “Let’s go!” she calls to him.

They run.  “Kaitlyn, what is happening?” pants Nick.

“Nick, the guys, they know!”

“OMG, they’re going to KILL me,” he says, looking surly.

“I know, that’s why you have to get the hell out of here now.  Field-plowing will have to wait.”

Kaitlyn opens the balcony doors and the sunlight streams in, making her squint her eyes.  When she opens them up again, she is shocked!  The men have gathered on the lawn below them.  They are angry, very angry.  She can hear them growling, and shouting, “Get them!!”  Their mouths are set, their eyes like slits; they have taken up arms.  From baseball bats to swords they have pulled down from the walls of the hotel, they are ready to beat them both for their betrayal.  They begin chanting and banging their weapons together over and over again.  It is a war cry.

“Oh no!” Kaitlyn gasps.  As she leans over to look at them, one of her boobs pops out, “accidentally.”  She slowly covers it back up.  The guys stop chanting for a second, staring up at her, forgetting why they are there.  Some of them start drooling.  Then, Nick reaches her side and looks down.  Now the guys remember why they are there and begin yelling again and brandishing their weapons.  Nick’s face turns even ashier than normal.  His curly hair straightens under the pressure, leaving him looking like a desperate, scared, wet puppy.  His shoulders sag, he knows he is in trouble.

Kaitlyn is FREAKING OUT!  She starts to run back into the room.  Yelling at Nick, she asks “What are we going to do!  We can’t beat them all!”  When she turns around she finds that there are men in the room now too, there is nowhere for them to go!

Choose YOUR favorite ending!

1.  Her heart racing, Kaitlyn sits straight up in bed, covered in sweat.  Her eyes pop wide open; she jumps out of bed and begins running around, looking for the men who are after her.  Her adrenalin is pumping.  “Omg, where is Nick,” she asks herself.  He is nowhere to be found.  She is breathing heavily.

There is no one else there.  She goes out onto the balcony and walks to the railing.  Looking down, there is no one there either.  She is all alone.

2.  Kaitlyn’s heart skips a beat, she gasps and blinks hard and says “Whaaa’??”  As she looks back out over the crowd that has gathered in the yard below she realizes that it isn’t the guys after all.

The yard is filled with hundreds of angry fans carrying signs and yelling.  They are saying things like “Kaitlyn is the worst Bachelorette EVER!,” the “Kaitlyn is THE Trashelorette,” and other unkind things.  Kaitlyn is appalled, all she ever did was follow her “heart!”

3.  Kaitlyn’s heart is racing, she grabs Nick’s hand.  She looks into his big beautiful blue eyes for a moment and gathers her strength.  She takes a deep breath in and suddenly, she passes out.  It’s all too much for her.

Nick grabs her as she falls.  “Oh no, now what are we going to do?” he asks himself.  He fans her bright red cheeks.

The men are closing in on them.  He grabs her in his arms and leaps off of the second-story balcony screaming “if it’s good enough for Romeo and Juliet it’s good enough for us!”
