Bachelorette Becca Week 9

Full disclosure before I begin… this recap could either be awesome-good or awesome-not-so-good based on sticking around for “just one more” adult beverage after a work dinner. Good thing Dad was in charge of Caroline tonight!

And some of you may be getting this recap for the first time because I updated my distribution list with some more fun peeps that are going to join next season but I added them to the recaps now for the heck of it! Hope I don’t scare you off!

Programming Note: Next Week is the last hurrah of true shenanigans before the finale known as the Men Tell All. I’ve attached the template for the bonus questions. Don’t forget to complete this!! All total you could earn up to 50 points and as I’ve said all season – this is where the fun starts and it usually shakes up the standings so make sure you get these back to me because 50 points is nothing to sneeze at!!! And speaking of, those standing are attached, too – literally zero change among the top 10. **cackles gleefully waiting for next week**

RECAP
We’re in Thailand for “Overnights”! Side note, I always love when they do the old plane on the map animation to explain it’s a long trip.
We start off with Becca recapping her relationships with each man:
Garrett – I’m in love with him but will he challenge me (translation: I’m not sure he’s the brightest crayon in the box)
Jason – He’s awesome, we have fun and stuff, he’s like my best friend (translation: he’s totally getting friend-zoned)
Blake – effortless connection, can’t imagine him not being in my life and I’m in love with him (translation: I can’t wait to jump his bones in the fantasy suite)

Blake’s Date
You said you love her 2 weeks ago and you plan to propose in 2 more weeks… that’s.totally.normal
They visit a Buddhist temple were they’re not allowed to kiss or touch each other and get advice from some sweet monks about honesty and love. True story, how cool would that be?

Blake looks for a reason to stay, not a reason to go. DAMN! That is one heck of a line! Melting now and it’s not from the Thailand heat!
The morning after Blake is back in his favorite place – his own insecure thoughts



 Jason’s Date
Trouble a-brewing during the day date wandering the city when Becca basically freaks out over a simple joke about home décor. Been there, done that (Sober editor’s note: I typed a whole possibly TMI breakup story paragraph here last night that has now been omitted. You’re welcome.)
Simply put, she sends Jason home at dinner and then flings herself on the bed like a bad 50’s soap opera
I am also starting to think Jason is in on the whole Joey Donner doppleganger thing. See above and below for my proof:
Garrett’s Date
Their adventure date is stand-up rafting down a river during some sort of National Sit-in-the-River Holiday??


THERE’S A BABY ELEPHANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Becca discusses her concerns about whether Garrett will challenge her enough

Oh wait, did Garrett just bring up his past relationship again? Color me shocked

The Least Dramatic Rose Ceremony Ever
Oh boy, first though, Jason needs a little more closure
And by closure, I mean handing her a scrapbook to remember their time together?!?! 
And finally, Becca shows up to hand 2 roses to 2 guys
Just 2 more weeks until the Finale! Praise be.
