Pinocchio in Prague




So my DVR (or my husband) failed me.  The Bachelorette lost out in the DVR battle vs. Mythbusters and Deadliest Catch. Luckily, one of my sister’s “babysitter” friends caught the first hour. 

Here, her summary:

The crew arrives in Prague, and Emily's not screwing around this week! This is the episode where she decides who's hometown she will be visiting.

Arie

Her first date is with Arie. Chris and his crazy eyes are beginning to lose their cool. Arie was outed big time by ex lover/Bachelorette producer Cassie about the previous relationship he and her had shared. Even though only a date or 2 had been accounted for, you better believe this was the end of the world in Emily's eyes. For a good 10 minutes we get the privilege of watching a private interview with Emily and Cassie - and by private interview I mean Emily whining incessantly about the distrust and betrayal she currently is feeling...pretty dramatic to say the least. She then proceeds to try and trick Arie into a confession that never came. Talk about clueless. You would think that Emily's new found bitterness towards Arie would stop her from sucking face with him every 5 minutes, but nope, the kissing commenced.

Wolf

Her next one on one date was with John "the wolf". Personally, I think John has the personality of a rock, and his head is an automatic deal breaker in my eyes but hey whatever floats your boat Emily, I’m not here to judge. Their date was one awkward event after another. Ultimately, that segment left me feeling uncomfortable, to say the least. My favorite part of their date was when John took a trip down memory lane to his past relationship where it was revealed that his cheating whore of a girlfriend stepped out on him a WEEK after their year anniversary...the nerve. Naturally, when she was not responding to his multiple calls and texts, he did what any sensible man would do and called all of the local police departments. Good call John. The date ended with a kiss that John found “magical,” I’m sure Emily was cringing at the touch of his wolf lips.

The scene that really stuck out in my mind is when Sean took it upon himself to break free from the group and sprint around the city of Prague in search of Emily, dramatically screaming at the top of his lungs. As fate would have it, he found her roaming around in an abandoned alley after what looked like 5 minutes of searching. They end up grabbing a corner and sharing some good conversation along with a intimate kiss took a quick turn into creepy territory.


And, I'm back....

Triple Double Date

Chris, the Corporate Sales dude, is awkward and cries about not having a one-on-one date.  I really don’t like how his lips don’t move when he talks.  But Chris still said he feels like the luckiest guy in the world.  Cool.

Blonde Sean gets the rose and gets to bring Emily home to meet mom and dad.  Chris is pissed off.  In fact, he thinks its “frickin crazy.”  He even threatens to throw down if he can’t bring Emily home.

Jef

Harry Connick Jr. is up for the next one-on-one date.  Jef and Emily spend the first part of their date playing with marionettes. It’s kind of perfect, Jef is kind of like a creepy puppet the more I think about it.  Oh, and, Emily wore giant fringed stripper booties on their puppet date.  So anyway, all the kids took their places with their Marionettes, and Gretl went high on the hill with a lonely goat, and Fraulein Maria yodeled and oh, the Baroness was so impressed!  Wait, sorry, that was the Sound of Music.  Anyway, Jef and Emily did this weird puppet role playing game in a library, and Jef, who was dressed in Pac Sun’s best, was really jazzed about his performance. Emily and Jef ended the date rolling around the library floor on an old velvet maroon blanket.

Back at the douche den, Chris threw a few chairs at the wall, and unleashed the crazy in his eyes.  Jesus, this kid is one step away from pulling a Mark Wahlberg in Fear and killing the family dog. 

Rose Ceremony

Dude, Chris is getting a ton of face time this season! Emily, because she’s a pretty little sweet blonde, makes up her own rules on the Bachelorette.  The party is over! Emily decides there is NO cocktail party.  Prohibition baby.  No booze for these beaus.  Funny thing, for someone that put a kibosh on the cocktail party, she’s sure dressed for one – a cocktail party at a very exclusive gentlemen’s lounge, and only Chuck Bass has the key.

Jef gets a rose (even though his parents won’t be home.) Arie gets a rose, even with all the drama, and Chris, well Chris completely loses his cool.  He stopped the rose ceremony and BEGGED Emily for forgiveness.   Well, his pleading worked.  Emily wants to meet his broken family.  Well, that left Wolf to go howl Jacob style on a mountain somewhere. 


 Can't wait to go home next week!

    "Dated for a brief time" = One Night Stand the poor guy doesn't remember. With each episode I like Emily less and less.
