I think Kacie is a bit immature for her age because her parents are too protective and her father scares guys after they meet him, if she has ever brought anyone home before. She is as cute as can be, the prettiest of all the girls. But, she is just not sophisticated like Lindzi. I think Nicki falls too hard, too fast. She shouldn't rush into marriage soo fast again. Lindzi has "it" all together and Courtney is used to guys falling all over her and takes advantage of their attention and what they can do or buy for her. If Ben chooses Courtney, he is under her spell and will be sorry in the end. I like Ben, but he should think with the head above his shoulders.

Excellent spoiling Jag. Thanks very much! All of the families seemed very nice and normal. I suspect that Kacie's parents scared Ben off a bit but then that probably wasn't a bad thing. Kacie was very upset at not getting a rose. Lindzi's parents seemed wonderful and they have a lovely home. Nicki's seemed nice as well. Courtney's parents were a little restrained (especially her Mom) but if we didn't know all we've read about Courtney I'd think that they were very nice. Really it was a pretty tame "meet the parents" show.

Courtney's upper lip has a mind of its own.

No one discussed that ridiculous fake wedding Courtney staged. How old is she? 12?

LOL Hummingbird re lip and acting 12. I so agree! She does act like a child at times with the baby talk and the little hops and giggles. Why men find that attractive I'll never understand.

When Ben put on the bow tie for the fake wedding, all I saw was Alfalfa from The Little Rascals. I think Ben took KacieB's father's request to not string her along if she wasn't the one and let her go first after the hometown dates.

I think we are already seeing Courtney's "true side." And I think Courtney has screwed herself because no one will want to be with her or hire her in the future. As for the little girl acting, she kind of creeps me out. It works for a prostitute who is being paid to act like a little girl for some man who hires her, but it's creepy to see in real life.

LOL... evidently the viewers picked up on something that I didn't. Courtney's vows were ripped off from a Bob Marley song and Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City.

Its obvious he picks Courtney but I just don't understand why. Now she regrets her actions before - ? EeEh... such a bunch of crap. I wish I liked who he was going to pick but I don't and now I don't even like him - lol

Missy, her "regrets" were probably voiced-over last week after all the crap has been coming out about her in the tabloids. She didn't say anything to her family and Ben (back in November when this was filmed) about how badly she felt about her actions.

Ben: PICK COURTNEY. They have so much in common; they both part their hair right down the middle. That should be a good enough basis for this amazing relationship. (snerk) They really do go together. She is extremely insecure and he seems to hone in on that and wants to feel like "the man" with her. Might be a perfect fit. I love Lindzi and her family and Nicki and her family. Those two girls can do better! Now do they get to meet his family? I can't wait to hear the reactions from Ben's Mom and sister to Courtney!

And see AuntieM - I watch Courtney and don't see her as insecure. I call it "acting."

If he picks Courtney (which I feel he will), this will be a very sad finale`...just as bad as the Jake and Vienna finale`.

Apparently Courtney's "vow" was plagarized from Sex in the City.

KL, not only did she recite the same vows that Carrie Bradshaw recited in Sex and the City, she also quoted something from a Bob Marley song. I tried to bring the link over to the Bob Marley song, but the link was acting all snarly and futzy when I tried posting.

lol, Aurora! Ben does look like Alfalfa and am I the only one who thinks Courtney looks like Charlie Sheen?

Lexie, that's how I see her, too. Acting. I also think she's very insecure, deep down inside. Not that it makes it easier to take her shenanigans!

She barely looked up from her vows to say I love you. She is just so shallow....

I've never seen this show until watching it with my Mom the other night. Impressions? Ben is foolish and dorkish. Why the hell would women want to compete for his attention? He can't even style his hair in anything other than a really nasty mop. Aurora is right, he looks like Alfalfa. I'm suspecting Alfalfa was smarter. My Dad would hate him on first sight, no question. Mom filled me in on the twattish one. She wasn't all that bad on the show I saw, but you can see where this is going and Ben is going to deserve what he gets - a mean girl for a fiancee. The chick crying in the car when she didn't get the rose - OMG, he's been wining and dining 23 other women for months and you think you're in love with him? So did/does everyone else, apparently, except Courtney who says she's getting there while thinking to herself "cha-ching" while her public profile increases incrementally. I had no impression of the other two girls, they seemed interchangeable with most other chicks in the U.S. \annoyed with these people LOL.

I had no impression of the other two girls, they seemed interchangeable with most other chicks in the U.S. Maybe that sums up Ben's preference for Courtney? Speaking for my own preference I found all the others very attractive with nice families. Lindzi's family seemed especially nice and what a beautiful place to live!

I was really hoping Lindzi's family also lived in Seattle so I could see some familiar sights. They live in Florida, apparently. Opposite end of the US. Her family does have a beautiful setting for their unique life with the horses. Very nice, grounded people too.

Auntiemike - I live about an hour or so from Ocala FL where Lindzi's HT visit was. It is "horse country" for sure! A lovely area known for horse farms.
