We're down to 2 on The Bachelor!

Well, it's that time again - fantasy dates! And true to Bachelor form, there was enough drama to go around.

Now, last week when he kept Lisa, I was wondering if he did it so he could get rid of her the next time somewhat easily. I think that sometimes that's the strategy for the bachelors when they find that they really have a connection with one or two girls - they keep a girl who he doesn't feel much for so it's easier to not get caught up with her and makes the rose ceremony elimination easier. I think that's what Lorenzo did with Lisa. It seemed pretty clear that he was freaked out by her "plan" and all the wedding magazines and the dress. He did a good job of grilling her last night about her love of the show. The other girls had mentioned that before - that she has seen every episode of the show, and knows what to say to get further along. It finally caught up to her last night. I'm not sure if she was on the show to be on tv or for a quick way to find a husband, but it wasn't to fall in love with Lorenzo. Good riddance.

I really like both Jen and Sadie. They seem like down-to-earth girls who are really there for Lorenzo. And both of their dates seemed more like "real" dates than some of the typical fantasy dates from other seasons. Spending a day at an amusement park, or teaching Sadie how to scuba dive are things Lorenzo might do outside of the show. Usually when a girl goes on a more "real" fantasy date, it's a good sign for her future on the show. Remember Jenn and Andrew's fantasy date? Didn't they go bowling? Anyways, you just got the impression that Lorenzo just wanted to spend time with the two of them. I was also really impressed with his reaction to Sadie's moral dilemma. (of course, we did joke last night that he didn't need to pressure Sadie to have sex since he had already gotten some that week from Jen and Lisa!)

The rose ceremony was good - I was so glad to see Lisa finally go. This might be the first season where my two favorite girls are left in the end. I don't know who to root for! I think I'm hoping he chooses Sadie, but Jen would be a good choice too. And it looks like after next week's "women tell all" episode, the final episode involves both sets of parents instead of just Lorenzo's. I feel for Lorenzo - it looks like from the previews that he truly is concerned about hurting both one girl and her parents. Should be good!
