Curlyq | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 09:46 pm     Maybe she was thinking of merciful missionaries or something. Instead it came across as a funny Freudian slip. |
Max | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 09:49 pm     Yep, Melissa wins hands-down for the dumb comment of the week! LOL Mojo is probably counting herself lucky about now. I'm glad she showed him her scrapbook and her million-dollar check. I like Zora the best, but she deserves SO much better than Evan! Sarah and Melissa are definitely the catty step-sisters in this Cinderella story. With their smoking and talking about money and being catty about the other girls, I hope they are feeling a bit embarrassed right now. |
Azlen | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 09:51 pm     Yep, definitely a malapropism. I am guessing that she was trying to say she was merciful. His picks this week seem to hold true to the old adages about playing hard to get and men being in it for the chase. He was definitely more intrigued by Zora, who really hasn't opened up to him, then he was by Mojo, who might as well as had composite pictures of Evan Jr in her book. |
Jhezzie | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 09:58 pm     Poor Zora. I hope for her sake she gets sent home. She deserves a nice guy. I want that dullard stuck with Melissa, lol. They deserve each other, ya know? Besides, she "can change" him, lol! |
Seamonkey | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 10:30 pm     A snippet on the news tonight, Evan at a superbowl party and he describe the remaining three Zora: tough nut to crack. Melissa: a real sweetheart Sarah: right on my wavelength huh. I only saw bits during commercials but will see the tape later.. I did catch the "mercenary" malapropism.. yep they are on the same, dumb, wavelength... |
Tvjunkie | Monday, January 27, 2003 - 10:31 pm     Sarah's date: The subtitles were hilarious to the make-out or was it make-love session ummm... shhh... (slurp) ahh... shhh... (smack) ROFLOL * Of course he picked her... duh! Melissa's date: she says, "Now we're cooking!" LOL He is doing everything and she seems to just be drinking wine. DUH! The mercenary comment was a hoot! (Heidi was somewhere saying "whatever!" on that one) * He picked her.... hummm... she's fun I guess. Zora's date: Evan says really nice things about her and then follows with, "Sometimes it's like being in a Disney movie." and the montage that followed. LMAO I felt so bad for her when the other girls crashed her date. I think I heard her invite them though, and she shouldn't have. Evan was grinning like a Cheshire cat in the hot tub with all of them. *Glad he picked her. She seems like the best one suited for him. If only he could tell her he doesn't have all that blasted money! MoJo's date: The puzzle and poem were interesting. I'm sure she did put a lot of time and effort into it, but maybe she needs to go see that new movie coming out... How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days! The comment she made to Melissa and Sarah about wanting to see them in her hat made me bust out in laughter, much like it made Melissa and Sarah. LOL *Glad to see her leave gracefully. I couldn't believe Evan saying "I'm really glad I got to know you," to her right before Paul (the butler) said the last name. I think it even took the girls off guard. The girls all saying how awful it was to see someone go, while grinning ear to ear. Especially Sarah. The only one that doesn't seem to be all about the jewelry, of course is Zora. Paul's comment at the end was the perfect end to a very entertaining show. "Once again I didn't get a necklace, but I did swipe the puzzle. I might be the real winner here. Anyway don't miss our show next week when Evan whisks the girls away to the French Riviera on a private jet. *sigh* Oh, I bet Heidi would have loved that. ...Oh well. As always I shall be right here, awaiting your return." |
Grannyg | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 03:14 am     The true Cinderella story would be Zoro with Evan and him really having a lot of money. I like Zoro more each week because she does seem to be the only one with any real sense. Melissa I like less each week. Really beginning to get on my nerves. And Sarah seems to be too flighty and really concerned about how much money he does have. |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 04:32 am     I think Melissa meant to say missionary and that would not even have been correct. We will never know. Melissa got the lousy portrait and a lousy meal. With the editing we have not seen the others show their gifts. It must be dissapointing for her. Sure looks like Zora is being edited to win. She is giving him the chase. Trisha did the same with Alex and he denied the attraction of that and admitted his mistake. I am liking Sara more and I am not sure why. I guess because none of them are compelling. I don't care for Zora all that much. Unless the editing is responsible she is too closed. It is time to open up. This is supposed to be fun and it appears she is taking this too seriously. The promo, for this episode, showed Melissa and Evan in bathrobes with Melissa's voice over saying that she would make this easy for him. It looked like they were going to bed. At the end of this show we saw the context in which she said this. Sneaky. Sara and her hot rocket body will be in the final two. She easy to talk to and physically accessable. I see Melissa going next week. |
Realfan | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 07:44 am     I missed the Melissa in a bathrobe scene, Fruitbat. Was it part of this episode, or a teaser for the future? ITA Zora doesn't do much for me. Too stand-offish. I don't ADMIRE Melissa, but I sort of get her. She's more entertaining to watch than some of the others, even when being catty or plotting "strategy" with Sarah or spying on the other girls with Evan (hey, there's no TV for entertainment. Why not?). I disliked her catty comment about MoJo (it was about MoJo, not Zora as stated above), but ITA completely with being disappointed over a "cooking" date. I hate to cook, too. And cooking in someone else's kitchen is the pits. LOL that she didn't know what garlic looked like (though Evan seemed unable to tell her), and the mercenary comment had me laughing long after the show. But it didn't seem fair. Evan takes Zora horseback riding to bring her out of her shell, because he knows she likes it, while Melissa cooks--something she hates? Who decides these unfair dates? I do wonder why Melissa or Evan didn't suggest they go for a walk afterward, try out the hot tub, take a bottle of wine and glasses to th room, or do something besides eat their gross meal. Overall, that was the funniest episode yet with the editing. The lip-smacking captions with the Sarah make-out session, the Disney montage--it was hilarious. I thought MoJo was the one that said "We'll join you," not that Zora invited them into the hot tub. I like that she's modest around the others, considering the others are falling out of their tops (Evan has kept only large-breasted women, hasn't he?). But there's something to be said for being a LITTLE agressive, if it's something you care about. Zora is on the verge of being a pouter, which can be just as manipulative as the pushy chicks. But in this case it backfired. Evan didn't climb out of the tub to pursue her, he stayed and had fun with the other three. I was surprised MoJo got cut, considering he still seems to be getting nowhere with Zora and his date with Melissa didn't seem to go that well. But it's all in the editing. They want you to be surprised. Wasn't it funny when the other three come back and see Evan without his shirt? He looked SO guilty! Paul was adorable as always. And Alex who? |
Karuuna | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 07:58 am     Okay, maybe I was hallucinating, but I got the impression at the end of their date that Mojo said something like "if you're tired WE can go to bed", and then the next thing you saw was them going upstairs and the bedroom door closing (altho you didn't actually see them go in together). Was I dreaming? Nightmaring even? |
Enbwife | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 08:31 am     I love this show! Last night's episode was the best to date - hillarious! I think MOJO scared him off with her wacky poem about being husband and wife, and the puzzle of herself! Ha ha!!! I couldn't stop laughing. The other thing that cracks me up is Sarah and Melissa talking like they're in some alliance together! Are they insane??? Don't they realize they're competing for the same guy??? Ha ha!! Zora is my pick but she needs to act more interested in him or he'll go for one of the other two that are all over him. I felt sorry for Zora when the 3 crashed her date. I don't blame Evan for not going after her when she left the hot tub though! He knows he'll never sit in another hot tub with 3 gorgeous women in teeny-tiny swim suits again! Enjoy it now Evan. |
Merlin | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 08:54 am     Kar, I don't remember the dialogue from the scene exactly but I see a key word missing from what you are quoting. If she said "if you are tired We can go to bed together, then Evan might have made a move. Otherwise, I don't see him smart enough to pick up on any suggestions and even less able to notice if she was giving him a hint. |
Karuuna | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 08:58 am     Okay, Merlin, I'll bow to your greater wisdom here. As we know, I can be pretty dense about thse things.  |
Fruitbat | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:08 am     Merlin is wise. She said if you are tired you could go to bed. Had the pronoun included Mojo, Evan would have jumped on it! |
Merlin | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:08 am     Hey, I like that wisdom angle. When I realize all the times I have done the same thing Evan has, I thought it was mental slowness on my part. but I would never jump on a pronoun |
Weenerlobo | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:35 am     What a funny funny show! I'm still cackling over the "mercenary" Melissa remark. Not to mention the fact that Even didn't even bat an eye at that; what a perfect couple. Isn't it interesting how Sarah Does The Forest (yep, much like Debbie Does Dallas, only with better background music) and then comes back in and tells Melissa she only gave him a little goodnight kiss. And to follow that up Sarah and Melissa call Mojo the S!ut. My my my. I think any high school psych class would call that Projection, Sarah! Melissa and Evan in the kitchen - what a mess. I don't blame Paul for high-tailing it outta there. Mojo seems very nice and very immature. Metallic sparkle eyeshadow and tacky puzzle thing might have been done by a teenager. I gotta believe that production is asking to keep Zora every week, or, like others have said, it's all in the editing. I like her the most and it sure seems like she smells something rotten in Denmark, but she is kinda boring too. Those ruby necklaces were dull. |
Mack | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:37 am     What a mess!! Melissa and Evan should be together and then prohibited from producing offspring. OK...OK....not very PC of me but, even as a behavioralist, people never fail to amaze me. Granted the producers are probably "playing" with the video so we see only a bit of the relationships. I'm beginning to think they've taken a page out of Bachelor II and, by editing, made the "match" between Zora and Evan look totally out of the question. It might explain why she "stormed" off last night when the rest showed up at the hot tub. Not to mention she was overdressed for the occasion compared to the other ladies. |
Realfan | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:46 am     Karuuna, my husband was convinced MoJo and Evan had slept together. It wasn't just you. I think the editing led to it being up in the air. |
Merlin | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:55 am     Realfan, don't encourage her.  |
Zachsmom | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 09:58 am     I am starting to get really "bugged" about the preview with the night camera where Evan states (paraphrased) "I've never had to lie to a woman to get her into bed..<forget what else is said>..I am starting to really like this girl" I think Zora is just kind of quiet..I would have worn the tank top too..I would have left the hot tub also after the other girls were hanging all over "my" date..I found it very disrespectful of the women to crash their date..yes they were invited but it was Zora's time with him..Evan should have gotten out of the tub and at least walked Zora to her room to end the date.. but then again it could all be editing.. I DON'T like Melissa..Sara is just kinda dingy (but again it could be editing) I wouldn't kiss a man in a competion with other women..then again I wouldn't compete with other women for a man..<shrug>..but I am single so what do I know.. I am still trying to figure out WHY I watch the show.. The butler is such a cutie pie!! What a sense of humor..the Heidi comment was classic!!!! |
Pamy | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:00 am     I loved the Cinderella comment. I was laughing thinking our very own Owl figured this out weeks ago!! I am sure ZOra wins |
Karuuna | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:02 am     Thanks, Realfan... I was beginning to think I had hallucinated the whole thing! Merlin, shouldn't you be working today? Zmom, I'm with you, I don't know why I watch this show either. Evan does not appeal to me in any way. I do think Zora was right to walk away from that bawdy hot tub scene. Any classy woman would do the same. And since Evan didn't support her, I'd walk right out of that chalet too, if I were her. |
Denecee | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:12 am     Zora is my fav, therefore I hope he lets her go next week. Prediction: If Melissa can manage to keep her legs together, he will pick her. She deserves to learn a lesson or two about relationships. He won't keep Sarah because he already had her. Mojo, the girl came on way to strong which might work with a guy that doesn't have alot of options. Evan is an <>. |
Abbynormal | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:14 am     I thought he was on this show to find a wife, but his comments about Mojo make me think no way is he wanting to get married. He will probably pick Zora since she acts like that is the last thing on her mind also. |
Avrey258 | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 10:15 am     I can't believe that I had two chances to watch this show last night with satellite and forgot it was on....dang it! You guys did a good job of recapping. Does anyone know if they repeat this show on the weekend or later in the week? I really wanted to see this episode last night. I didn't realize I missed it until I saw a commercial for Extra and they said they were going to have an interview with MoJo! |
