Episode Eleven

Eleven. I think, not sure. It seems so long since we hung with Bret and the girls. Kinda lose count after a while.



As an aside, those of you in the NC/SC area, Bret will be performing in Myrtle Beach on June 10th. Yeah, it is a Wednesday, but for Bret, wouldn't you risk it all??? Hell, these girls did... Of course we will be in Richmond at EFO, but you gotta make sacrafices. He's a country star now so bring your boots and hat and yeeee-hawwww. Allie says that if The Girls were going to be there, a birthday trip to Myrtle would be in my future.



What do we have, three girls left? Taya, Penthouse Pet of the Year and all-around hottie, Mindy the southern belle that we know NOTHING about, and Jamie who we also have no clue about either. So we have a known and two unknowns.



So on a hotness factor, we have to go with Taya, with a close second from Mindy who is no slouch, just doesn't have the resume. For stability I'd put them in the opposite order 'cus Jamie seems to have her head together, Mindy's relationship poor and seems to overthink things, and Taya has taken the role of the cry-er.



And it is nice that I finally got the names right.



On with the show.



It is all about the hotel. The Sagamore - The Art Hotel. We looked it up. Seems kinda nice. Little bit outta our range. Rated #16 out of 200+ hotels in the greater Miami area. Jamie has gone for the headband/flapper look. Not too sure 'bout that.



Bret gives them the outfits for Mardi Gras. Leaves nothing to the imagination. Taya is right at home. Mindy is uncomfortable. She's in awesome shape and this bothers her??? Of course, the outfit is bad looking. Bitch, bitch, bitch and she won't get into the outfit. Does she not get that it is all down to three. Crunch time and she's caving. No prime time player. And Allie mentioned the full moon. Yep, and it all makes sense.



Captain Buzzkill. And he's struggling with this??



He's going hard core with the questions. Puts each on the spot about the others. Whew, does anyone think it is hot in here? "The road does mysterious things to people." Mindy pulls the drama about Taya. Can they, for the love of Pete, just take care of their own business. It is Catty (with a Capital C) and Jamie is digging this. She's playing the Survivor strategy. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? We've voted for YES.



Miami by helicopter. Nice. Good call. Did they do that in Vegas in a previous season?



Taya goes ugly. She is spilling the beans of their conversation from last night. Getting nasty.



Jamie's headband has to go.



Bret spills his guts that he isn't sure what he's looking for. No shit. Isn't that the whole point of these three seasons?!?!?



Strong move. Divide and conquer. I'm starting to thing that Mindy blew it yesterday by doing nothing while she was at the hotel. In a way to show a level of devotion, she should have done something to demonstrate her commitment. Like nude pictures or a Rock of Love Bus 3 tattoo.



Gator date. Jamie - "I'm totally feeling Bret right now" while his hand is running up her thigh. No Jamie, Bret's totally feeling you up. Kinda the same, but different.



Now, props to the girls on the Gator trip for not mentioning Taya. Then Bret brings it up. I gotta say, he could dump Taya or Mindy for just cause, but they are both hotter than Jamie. Whew. Tough choice between hotness and coolness.



Taya says she "feature danced", but she's not a stripper. We went to the dictionary to look it up, but can't come up with anything exept a video on go-go dancing. I think that makes her a stripper. One that splits hairs on technical points.



Action packed episode. Half way through and two dates down. This is full-on.



Dead-silence dinner. Oh, this is funny as hell. Three seasons in a row he's had one of these dinners with no action. Does he never learn? Taya's day is in a funk since she didn't go on the date and all she did was her nails. Don't these girls read a paper? Watch the news? Grab a copy of People or US Weekly and find something to talk about? Where's the depth of character???



Jamie opens it up. She openly admits that she's waiting for Taya and Mindy to attack one another so she can watch the spectacle. That was too damned funny. I don't think the other realize this, no, I'm sure they don't realize it, but that was a HUGE put-down on her part and Taya comes back with an apology??? UG.



Damn, Jamie towers over those two.



Mindy goes down the defeatest road. That's how she gets by - lowers expectations and detaches so she won't get hurt if it goes bad. Common defense mechanism.



We get tears from Taya 'cus she hasn't seen him today. What a flake. "I don't have insecurities 'cus I have a nine-year old." "I'm 29 going on 129". What the hell is that?? That's funny as hell that he showed up and then turned on his heel and left. Wonder if they had any idea they chased him away.



Elimination.

He starts out by picking out their flaws. That's warm and fuzzy. Puts everyone in a great mood and fires up the waterworks.



Mindy makes the cut.



Down to two. Hotness or coolness. Tick-tock, tick-tock. I get the feeling that Taya can't handle rejection or failure.



I just have to say that this is low-brow entertainment. Really? you say. But when I look at the commercials for the other shows, I realize that this may be the top of the bottom heap.



Bret sends Jamie off. Bad move. But she struggled to tell him what she was truly thinking/feeling and her message got off-track. He didn't think she cared and she didn't convey that she did. Sucks because she actually has the most realistic expectations about what this could truly be and is as low key as they come.

Since Bret claims this is the last time he's doing this and will present a ring to the lucky girl next week, join us for one last Bret Blog next week!!!
