Here we go. Welcome to Canada...Montreal, Quebec to be precise. So pretty.
Down to 10 and Joey is struggling...per usual. They are getting tired, messed up with feelings for several people and scared that things won't turn out with who they want. Poor Joey. He sincerely seems to be struggling. No need to be perfect Joey. Nobody is. If they are showing/posting they are...they are faking/lying! I figured that out about your age. Everything is easier after you realize some people are just better at acting.

Little miniskirts when people are bundled up in coats would not be my choice of attire for the day.  |

Pineapples and chocolate sauce on poutine? *gag*

Lexi with the stink-face (reminds me of Charity's expressions sometimes).
They're struggling with this group date, so many of them want attention!

Here comes Jesse with his French. So cute.
Starting with a group date ... with everyone but Maria and the other unknown Kelsey getting the single dates.
Scavenger hunt for group date...clues are in French. Lea and Jess are ticked that Maria got the single date. They get some tuques, learn some French and learn to make poutine...not the real stuff...poutine with chocolate. Some French music and dancing, followed by street hockey.He is liking Jen, some of the others...Lexi, Kelsey, Jess are not enjoying the multiple women and the group date.
This date should be fun, but it is a downer with Joey feeling a bit out of it and the women complaining. I hope the rest of the episode picks up!

OMG...Perk it up ladies. You are bringing Joey down.
The girl who I have no idea who she is sees him first and complains. Kelsey is next and complains she feels she isn't being seen. You had a single date last week, get over it. Makes out with her too.
Lexi is next and she is grilling him regarding his timeline. I hate these stupid timelines for some women. He says things can obviously change, but as of now, he wants a 2 or 3 year engagement and would like to be married without kids for a couple of years. She wants everything in the next couple of years. So unrealistic. I get zilch from Joey towards her. She told her traumatic story and her time is over. I can't see her lasting.

Sounds like Lexi wants to get married and have kids NOW...good luck with that.
Jess is a drag tonight, too.

Oof. He just sent Jess home because he wasn't feeling it.
I wasn't feeling her either, Joey.

Jenn is next. She at least looks happy and isn't bringing the mood down. She also admits to falling for him. He appreciates her always trying to make him special...but, he isn't there yet. Darn. She is one of the nice ones.
Jess is complaining...she is falling for him...blank stare from him. He is clearly not feeling it. Joey has no poker face. So easy to read. He has to be honest...and lowers the boom. Let's walk you out. He worries this will happen to him. Even dumping someone, Joey is so kind. And the tears begin. Wait till the others find he dumped her! Shock.
Not surprisingly, Jenn gets the GDR.
We get no time with Rachel, Daisy or Lea. Hmmm...

I've seen Cirque du Soleil (very cool!) but no way would I want to be hanging and spinning like that. |

I like Jenn, and am glad she got the date rose. She was fun and happy, made him feel good the whole day, so she deserved it.
Oh man, I'm SUPER happy that he sent Jess home. She was just too much.
One on one with Kelsey T, who's a cutie. He seems like he likes her, but I get the feeling she has a long way to go to catch up with some of the others.

Kelsey is next. She has mostly been missing in action. I don't feel them, but this date is amazing. They get to train with Cirque de Soleil...it helps them learn to communicate. Cool. This would be a really fun date...if Joey wasn't getting dizzy. I hope he doesn't puke on her. They probably knew he gets motion sickness and deliberately didn't give him some Dramamine. I feel as if this is just a filler date.
Lexi is freaking out. OMG...that stupid timeline again. Does she think she will meet someone, date, get engaged, married and have a kid in two years? Dream on girl. All you are doing is putting unnecessary pressure on yourself and whoever you are dating. Go freeze some eggs and think about adoption or fostering.

Joey looks at Kelsey very sweetly -- not like the Jess kind of look, but it's still not quite the depth I get from him for some of the other girls.
And what was that French "I love you" bit in the beginning of the show, when he's in the limo with Maria?? Ew, seriously???

How do these women not just melt into a puddle of goo when Joey looks at them with those gorgeous half-closed eyes? Lawd. |

Kelsey is really cute and I wish we knew more about her. I feel we have barely seen her.
Here come the trauma du jour. Her family issues...with her dad. They were very close until she didn't want to do what he wanted her to do. He didn't want her to go to college. I didn't get what he wanted her to be ... religious? She went to live with her mom and didn't speak to her dad for a long time. They have started more contact in the last few years, but it is still hard and she has trust issues. Doesn't everyone on this show? People without trust issues on this show are a rare breed...and usually get zero screen time, because you know, they are boring. And she gets a rose.

That religion conversation was vague. I got the impression it was one of those religions that are more restrictive or controlling - maybe like Scientology? I'm sure there are more, but it didn't sound like your basic Catholic or Jewish kind of pressure. |

Very uninterested in a Maria fashion show.

It's a pretty color, but that dress isn't exactly the one I'd have chosen for her.

Maria. Those eyebrows are annoying me. She gets a Rolls.
He says that when he is with her they laugh and have fun. Code...surface level. I have fun and enjoy my time with her because there isn't anything deep between us. She gets the Pretty Woman date. She is modelling a bunch of clothes and they pick out a dress. We get the French ILY and they are off to a helicopter for a view over the city.
Maria is in tears and auditioning in her ITM's. She is so happy.
Evening portion...they get along, have fun, they are relaxed. She wants an engagement and she wants someone who says what they mean. She has already told us her family trauma so we don't have to listen to that from her. She too is falling for him. Rose. They get some unknown musician singing and they dance and make out. All very natural. He is happy, but we have over 30 minutes left and based on the rest of the episode, I suspect that won't last. Lexi...I'm looking at you.

I feel for Lexi. That's got to be rough, not knowing if you can get pregnant, then the possibility of waiting 5 more years to see if it will work? Heartbreaking. I'm not sure I'd have been able to just walk away from that wonderful man though, no matter what! I probably would've risked it.
But, maybe she knew somehow that she wasn't the final 1, and didn't want to waste anymore time.

Here it comes. Lexi and her timeline. She goes to dump Joey. He is not exactly that upset. This is very anti climactic. I am strangely unmoved, maybe because I think she is unrealistic, but also as if this is all a set up with tptb. Joey isn't that upset with her leaving, more like he is worried if someone he is really interested does the same.

MOT girl is talking to Joey again. I still don't know her name.
Finally, we get some Daisy and her love of foot massages...and he complies.
Jenn teaches Joey to play the piano...in front of the other ladies...who are less than thrilled. Yeah, no. Not something you do with someone you are truly interested in.
The smell of desperation is strong this episode.
Rachel is doing well...she is calming him...just in time for Jesse's appearance to let them know the RC is next. Cue the dramatic music!!!

I like Rachel. She seems like a lot of fun, but her reaction -- and Lea's of course -- wasn't very attractive in that moment.
PLEASE send Lea home, Joey!!

What about Lexi for Bachelorette? Then she'd have a speedy timeline, and could choose someone who'd hurry up with her.  She likely did not make it far enough on this season, though, to have a real shot at Bachelorette. Daisy with the 1st rose handed out tonight! yay Kelsey A with the 2nd. Yep, he's kinda obvious. |
