The Final Rose

Tear, Tear, Tear. It's time for Ashley to give away the final rose.

But first thing is first Men Tell All. All the boys who were eliminated came back to take a seat in the hot seat. Well everyone except for Bentley. No surprise. If he showed up they would have had a major security problem from all the ladies wanting to give him a piece of their mind. They talked about everything from first meeting Ashley, the comedy roast, Phantom of the Opera, Bentley and Ryan's reading material. The guys who came out of nowhere and were the highlights of the evening were Nick and Mickey. Where were they all season saying this stuff?

The final episode was one I may never forget. The first reason is because of Kat Von D's appearance. Well it wasn't actually her; it was Ashley's coupon clipping sister. I don't care if you think she was rude; in my opinion she was being honest about her concerns for JP. After that awkward conversation, smart Ashley leaves her date with the good ol' I will talk to you later. That's reassuring! Then she has to go back and talk to Chrystie, minutes before her date with Ben, to try to understand why she had that reaction towards JP. But let's face it; she went there to try to convince her to like him. That conversation still wasn't so hot because minutes later you see both of them separately going and crying to mom like a bunch of 4 year olds. Meanwhile Ben is showing up to meet the parents. His date goes along much smoother and everyone including Kat Von D likes him.

Their individual dates were so BORING! Complete yawn fest. Nothing really exciting to talk about. I am so tired of these typical dates once they get to the tropical location.

After both guys pick out their choice for a Neil Lane engagement ring, they go and have the pondering life coffee drinking, and taking a shower scene. How many times can we see this from both the guys and from Ashley? Hey producers, think of something else. This is getting predictable.

But now it all comes down to who is the first out of the limo or in this case sea plane. And not to my surprise it's Ben. I was singing the Hallelujah chorus. He is too good for her. She is too all over the place to me a really good match for him. But what really got me so upset was the fact that she let him get down on bended knee and propose. Hello!! You knew you were sending him home. Why would you let him go that far and pull out the ring? Why? I guess you just once again proved to be the most immature Bachelorette. I was appalled to say the least. When you see his genuine reaction once Ashley said no you immediately see his walls go up and he wants out. My heart broke when I heard him talk in the After the Rose about his long trip home to go to his best friend's wedding. So sad. Team Ben!

Ben leaves on his fishing boat as he sees JP's sea plane overhead. Classless move Bachelorette Producers! Once JP gets out of the plane we are back to the boring stuff. Yah, they are cute and all but they make me yawn. The only thing that is really exciting about them is their age difference.

Play the corny romance song and exit stage left.
I wish them a month of happiness.
