'The Bachelorette' episode 11x07 recap: 'Week 6'

Ian Ian Ian
We pick up right where we left off last week, with Ian confronting Kaitlyn. Incase you missed it, let me refresh your memory: Ian had the gall to tell Kaitlyn that she is shallow, and insinuated that she is a slut who is only there to makeout with a bunch of guys. He also referred to the other guys as "lame", saying that all they do is talk about sex and make poop jokes. Though she is shocked and confused, Kaitlyn handles the situation like a pro, telling him off and also standing up for herself. They both come to the conclusion that they have no chemistry, and just like that, another man is gone. They are falling like flies. This season has had many many rotten apples, but this one truly shocked me. Am I the only one who didn't see this coming? Ian seemed so well, normal, but they always do right? Ian storms out of the house and into a black SUV where he is continues to ramble on about how deep, educated, and well travelled he is. Sir, no one cares! You're a jackass, and you will never be the Bachelor. After Ian's exit, Nick comes in to comfort Kaitlyn, making her feel much better. I didn't think this day would come, but Nick is really growing on me. Damn!

Rose Ceremony
Kaitlyn walks into the rose ceremony more nervous than usual because of fact that some of the men have confessed that they are falling in love with her. She is in deep, and now that most of the riff raff is gone, each cut is only going to get harder.
The Men who leave are: Ian, Justin, and Joshua (awww, I liked this country boy, he was sweet, but he really was his own undoing). Lesson of the day children, worry about yourself, don't talk too much about the other guys.
The Men who stay are: Jared (still my fave), Chris, JJ, Joe (second favorite, he's so funny right?), Ben Z, Nick, Tanner, Shawn, and Ben H.

Next Stop, Dublin, Ireland
I might apply to be on a future season of The Bachelorette, not for the men, I'm not crazy, but for the locations, they are breathtaking. The first individual date is with....dun dun dun... Nick, he truly does have the luck of the Irish (get it). Nick and Kaitlyn walk around town, freak out when they run into a few birds, dance a little, and kiss a lot. As much a Nick may not be many people's favourite, you gotta be honest, he and Kaitlyn do seem to have undeniable chemistry, and it is intense... They head to her hotel room at the end of the night, and now to the heavy breathing that they have been teasing since the first commercial. I only have one thing to say, Kaitlyn, get it girl!

P.S.A. Stop the hate folks! Social media can be a very ugly place, where people can spew hate with no consequences. Before being a social media thug, sending out negative, schathing comments, please keep in mind that someone might be reading them, and words do hurt. Don't be so judgemental, she's trying to bag herself a man, so she's gotta kiss a few frogs to get to her prince. End of rant.

May she rest in???
On board for the group date are: Tanner, Ben Z, Shawn, Jared, Ben H, and Chris. I was really enjoying the dates so far, they were fun, crazy, and a little weird, but an Irish wake ABC? This a little much. This date could have been a disaster, but the guys and Kaitlyn really make the best of what could have been a very awkward situation. Tanner, thank you for that hilarious little poem. Shawn, nice little dig at Nick. Ben Z, lovely and heartfelt as always.

During the cocktail part of the date, some of the men race ahead while others begin to crumble: Jared wins the race, getting a rose and a private concert from The Cranberries. Ben Z opens up about his mother. Shawn shares his family pictures in a lovely moment, but begins to unravel when he doesn't get the rose. He confesses that he loves Kaitlyn, and that she told him that he is the one..uh oh..a little premature Kaitlyn? Shawn, who is clearly a frontrunner, seems like he is about to give up and go home. Come on Shawn, get your head in the game. You knew she was coming here to date 25 guys.

And........another cliff hanger. They gotta go back to the original format if they want me to stick around for next season. Thoughts? Do you like this whole cliffhanger situation?

P.S. Stop trying to make Britt and Brody happen! We are not interested.

See you next week!
