The Bachelorette, Episode 6

Typically I write these as I watch the show but tonight's blog is coming from yesterday's memory.

The guys and Ashley arrive in Hong Kong and no one has yet to utter "this is the perfect place to fall in love"

Before the show can continue, Chris informs Ashley that Bentley is here.  In this hotel.  Ashley is so excited to learn this and can't wait to figure out what dot dot dot means.  Of course she needs a few minutes to compose herself because she's an idiot about to go see a gigantic tool bag.  Ashley finally makes her way to the hotel room of Bentley.  (At this point, a friend suggested that if we made this a drinking game, we'd all be drunk 20 minutes into the show if every time the name Bentley was said, we took a drink)

Ashley can't believe he flew all this way to see her.  Ummm.  I can.   If TV producers offered me a free flight and a sweet hotel room in another country, obviously I'd say yes.  Long story short because I'm really tired of the name Bentley (take a drink!) Ashley is told by Bentley that she is better off seeing what she has with the guys on the show than waiting around on him.

Ashley shows some anger and later says, that Bentley can go f#$% himself.

Lucas gets the first one on one date of the trip.  They walk around.  Lucas talks in his sexy Texan accent.  They eat something disgusting (or so they say) and then decide to jump on a pirate ship to have dinner and look at the polluted skyline of the romantic Hong Kong....  Big Tex gets the rose from Ashley and can't be more excited.

Group Date: Ames, Ben, Constantine, Mickey, and much to their dismay Ryan and Dentist Blake are on the group date.  Sunshine Ryan and Dentist Blake are the only ones not to have a one on one date.  This leaves JP to have his second one on one date.

The men are told that dragon boat racing is a favorite past time in Hong Kong and are told to find their own teams to help them row their way to victory.  Ames and Ryan are determined to win.  Ben and Constantine quickly become my favorite by failing at finding people but "going out like g's" in their newly purchased red Chinese robes.  The teams race.  Ames and Ryan win.  Ben and Constantine come in dead last.  Don't worry guys....all you win is a dragon trophy.  It looks like you'll have to share too since there's only one.  The guys then all watch a Chinese couple get engaged.  It must be fate.  or as Ashley states "what are the odds of that happening?!"

They all get fancied up and go to a hotel bar.  Ashley has been doing some shopping at forever 21 it looks like and is wearing a god awful dress.  Ames decides to make his move and takes Ashley to the elevator where he quickly lays on her some smooches.  It was awkward to watch.

The boys discuss how the hate Ryan and Blake threatens to leave the show if Ryan gets the rose.  Sure enough Mr. Sunshine gets the rose, but Blake is all talk and stays behind.

Up next JP and Ashley go off to the zodiac garden for dinner.  Ashley once again sports a sweet see through shirt.  I guess I missed the memo that see through shirts are in style.  Ashley and JP seem really into each other which disappoints me.  He could do better.  Ashley then drops the bomb on JP about Bentley.  She tells him he's the only one that knows at this point and he doesn't blink an eye.  He clearly has the early lead, and gets the road.

Rose Ceremony
Ashley shows up in a terrible dress and her boobs are heavily padded.  I don't judge;  I'm guilty of doing the same thing back in the days before I got boobs.  She believes that the guys will be so thrilled for her that she has seen Bentley and has been able to get past him.  Uh huh.  That's really what every guy wants to hear that's dating you....That all this time you've been thinking about someone else.

Well shit hits the fan, and Mickey, Blake, and Lucas are visibly upset.  Lucas feels like he's been lied too.  Blake makes Ashley stand awkwardly during their one on one time until he upsets her and she cried.  Mickey tells her not to give him a rose, and she sends him packing right then.  Off Mickey goes in a boat.

Ashley then has a nice heart to heart with all the guys about how she really hoped that with her being honest with them that they'd be glad.  blah blah blah.  Nothing exciting goes on.  Blake decides if she's able to be that honest with her then he really wants to stick around.

Too bad Blake, Ashley decides there isn't a connection and he is the other one sent packing for the night.  
Blake thought there was a connection and he just wants to find a friend.  Well Mr. Boy Band, you seem nice.  I'll most likely be in Greenville, SC in a few months, so how about dinner?

Ames, Ben, Constantine, Lucas, JP, and Ryan are all then told they are heading to Taiwan.  The don't get too over joyed because well I guess they are still thinking that Thailand is the perfect place to fall in love.

Previews for the rest of the season show of course Ashley really upset and crying, someone coming back after being sent home, and drama.  One more week until hometown dates.  And two more weeks until the men tell all.  Get ready kids, it's going to be a bumpy ride as we find out if Ashley is capable of finding love on tv.  If not, she'll go on Dancing with the Stars, because as we know she loves to dance.  Which to me is surprising there have not been any dancing or private concerts since leaving the states.
