-Welcome to Bachadmia. We are at the end of another season of the Bachelorette and we have two very special guests with us today: Sue and Denell (Bill’s Moms!)
-Question of the week! What do you get bored of? And what could you never get bored of? 
-The episode begins with a recap of Katie’s journey leading up to her argument with Greg, him leaving, and her questioning whether to stay. The next day, we see Blake and Justin waiting for a rose ceremony speculating about what happened to Greg. Enter Tayshia and Kaitlyn who let them know Greg left. Blake seems relieved at the news and smiles a bit. Justin seems much more worried. Katie seemed so upset over Greg leaving but by morning seems ready to proceed as if not much happened. 
Katie and Blake go on a date. They play with paint filled water balloons and then head to the hottub. In the hottub Katie tells Blake (sort of) what happened between her and Greg. Basically, she says I really connected with Michael and he left. I really connected with Greg and he left. 
-So Blake is feeling a little off because of the Greg thing but that doesn’t stop him from telling Katie he loves her. It is sweet but takes, like, fooooorever. And then Katie responds by saying “I effing love you too”. Ok. -So this feels like a lot after her holding out on Greg. 
-So they go to the fantasy suite and apparently have a satiating night. As she chats with Kaityn about it the next morning, Kaitlyn’s like, “Ok, but remember how Justin is still here.”  
-So she goes and breaks up with Justin. 
-So Blake meets Katie’s family: her mom and her Aunt Lindsey. Her aunt gives Blake hell and it is sort of hilarious until you realize this is probably real life. She asks him why he flunked out of the other seasons. Makes a vibrator comment. She also asks some very real and important questions about their future plans and it turns out they really have no idea about the future. 
-So Blake is super nervous, having some doubts about if engagement is really the best next step for their relationship (uh, duh) and forges along and picks out a ring. This poor man is stressed. (also, he is basically talking about proposing with his ex-- if you can call Tayshia that). 
-So it is time to wrap things up. Katie professes her love for him. It is quite lovely. He rambles and you go back and forth between thinking he is proposes and then thinking nah. At one point, he says I may not be able to give you what you want today and you can tell that Katie is a bit disappointed but trying to be cool. And then boom! He gets down on one knee. We celebrate. Sort of.Cause it all feels very weird.
-So then we return to the ATR. They bring out Greg. He says pretty predictable things. He is glad she found love. She taught him a lot. He loved her. He’s glad she found her person. Then they bring Katie out and it is cold. Katie is piiiiissed. She accuses Greg of talking down to her, gaslighting her-- which she defines as making someone think it is their fault, abandoning her, acting. Whoa. 
-After things with Greg wrap up, they bring out Blake to celebrate the happy couple. People on the internet were commenting on how they felt her affection for Greg felt forced and a bit aggressive. Others think their chemistry is undeniable. 
-Can we pleeeeease talk about that BIP preview!! I’m so excited. OMG Demi. JOE! More aaron/Thomas drama. I can’t wait.
Lesson learned.
-Sue and Denelle-- Any shoutouts?
