I finished. Nothing shocking about that episode. But I am exciting to see what happens with the last 4. He apparently falls in love with two girls but I honestly am not sure which 2 it will be.
Emily was just clearly very immature. And he had zero spark with Becca.
I mean this in the best possible way, but I think Amanda's hometown going to be very overwhelming for him. He's 26. He hasn't been married. He doesn't have any siblings, so no nieces and nephews. Going into a serious relationship with someone who has been divorced and two kids under 4 is a big deal. I just don't see her making it to top 2 or 3.
I completely agree with you. I think the crying girls are going to make him run for the hills.

So I fell asleep right after watching last night (staying up so late for the Grammy's on Sunday wrecked me).
Anyways, nothing too exciting in my opinion. Still has the best connection with Lauren. It's so obvious.
It was definitely time for Emily to go. Way too immature for him. I was cringing when she was telling his mom that she still has so much she wants to do in her life. If I were his mom I would've been thinking, "then what the hell are you doing here?" Not that she couldn't do a lot of things when looking for a man to marry. But to me, it just screamed, "i'm only 23 years old and there's lots I want to see and do in the world before I'm tied down." I agree with his mom that she doesn't really know who she is yet.
It was time for Becca to go as well. She certianly had a better connection with Ben than I ever thought she did with Chris but her connection was just not near as strong as some of the others.
I still like Jojo. I feel like it will be her and Lauren in the end. I can certainly understand where she's coming from in wanting to shut down when she seems him with girls like Lauren. But at the same time, you know what you're signing up for. I think this date solidified things for her and her feelings for Ben. I stand by the fact that if she's not Ben's pick in the end, I want her to be the next Bachelorette.
Caila seems fragile to me. I'm scared he's really going to break her heart. I think they're good together but again, connection is just not as strong as it is with Lauren and Jojo (IMO).
Amanda...oh Amanda. First of all, I still cannot handle her voice. I do think Ben has genuine feelings for her but I'm not sure he's really ready for the life he'd be getting himself into. Not that he couldn't handle it. I just think he's going to be very overwhelmed by it all and it will push him away.
I also love hometown visits so I can't wait for next week's episode!
Yes I'm excited for Jojo's brothers next week. They're going to try to paint them like jerks for "doubting the process," but seriously, that is a normal reaction. I would hope if I came back and was like, "omg I love this guy," my brother would say, "no you idiot this is a TV show, you've known him for less than a month."
I always love when a family member gets real with them.

I finally watched! I have similar opinions to you all:
1. WTF to the McDonald's date. I would love to know how much McD's paid for that sponsorship. "Breakfast or Dinner?" I dare my husband to take me on a date to McDonald's
2. Becca - why so whiney? Boo. You aren't special because you've been on this show before.
3. Buh Byeeeee twin. I don't understand why he introduced her to his parents, but his mom was so obviously bored. When the only compliment you get is about your looks, you know it's bad.
4. I'm interested to see how the hometowns go. I've read all the spoilers so I know who wins so it's a lot less exciting for me now that all the drama llama's are out of the house. This is when the tear and "real feelings" come out. LOLLLLLzzzz.

Damn, I know editing can be deceiving but the preview for next week's episode does not look good for Amanda ... Maybe she won't be in the final two lol.
