My three couples are still around at the cost of Tristin and Chris. This time, I’m not so sure I wanted them to lose.
It still amazes me that it only takes one episode to change Chris from an arrogant bastard to someone who just doesn’t know any better until it’s too late. And I’m glad that his ability to make cards helped patch things up between Tristin and him.
Cher, on the other hand, has become the new Chris. Apparently, someone needs to be evil to create more suspense, so now she’s the money-grubber who doesn’t care about self-improvement. Personally, I was thrilled that before going to the elimination room, she kept telling Josh, “It’s up to you now.” How sensitive of her to be concerned about her partner’s feelings…
Holy crap! Karl does look like me!
I’m starting to wonder about Wes. He was really suave while winning the speed dating challenge, he looked like he could replace the host after getting his makeover, he’s hooking up with Cher next week… aside from tracking monkeys with lasers, does he have any geek credentials? I’m starting to wonder about him…
Speaking of hooking up, I’m a little disappointed that they revealed the couple during the preview for next week. Last season, it just showed some hands (belonging to Chuck) rubbing Scarlet’s back and her saying, “Oh my God…” That was suspense. That led to a lot of speculation on the Internet, discussion about the “scandalous” behavior (assuming they weren’t my hands)… that was drama. This was crap. Shame on the editors for spoiling everyone’s fun!
