ONE BACHELORETTE IS DAZZLED WITH A DATE WORTHY OF CINDERELLA, OTHER WOMEN HARBOR MAJOR SECRETS THAT ARE EXPOSED AND CHRIS GETS SERIOUS ABOUT HIS INTENTIONS WITH THE REMAINING 15 WOMEN, ON “THE BACHELOR”
  
Chris’ three sisters will pick the lucky bachelorette to go on a special one-on-one date with their brother. A beautiful beach day at Lake Piru in the mountains of Southern California turns up the heat at a group date, as one woman jumps in without her bikini top and – not to be outdone – another takes off her bikini bottom. The day at the lake turns into camping out and spending the night there. One aggressive woman shares some surprising news with Chris, but will it make a difference in how he views her as a potential soul mate? Chris gets “down and dirty” with six bachelorettes as they travel to San Francisco to participate in a grueling mud run – in wedding dresses. The cocktail party leads to more revelations and confrontations, as one woman questions Chris’ motives for being here and he, in return, delivers a blunt message to the rest of the bachelorettes,  on “The Bachelor,” MONDAY, JANUARY 26 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

Eight excited women are treated to a wonderful day at the beach at Lake Piru, but no one thinks about cooling off. Instead a red-hot competition breaks out between two women who shed parts of their bikinis to catch Chris’ eye. Chris Harrison springs a surprise on the bachelorettes when he tells them they will set up camp and stay at the lake for the night. Singing campfire songs and eating s’mores are followed by one high-spirited lady getting the group rose date. However, Chris won’t get much sleep. One assertive bachelorette sneaks into his tent in the middle of the night, shares a shocking revelation with him, and then a hot make-out session ensues.

Back at the house, seven women are surprised by Chris’ three sisters. They are all intent on finding their brother a wife and interrogate the bachelorettes to find the one special lady they will pick to go on an extraordinarily romantic date with him. They pick a shy woman, who has been overshadowed by those with big personalities, but little do they know she has a secret she has kept from Chris. The next morning, three stylists turn this fortunate bachelorette into a real-life Cinderella. At night, she is whisked away to a magical ball just for her and her Prince Farming. Chris overwhelms his princess with a private concert by the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and a special sneak peek at Disney’s new movie “Cinderella.” They waltz until midnight, but will this woman leave with a rose?

It’s off to San Francisco for Chris and six bachelorettes for the last group date. Dressed in wedding gowns, the women have to complete a difficult mud run with the losers going home and the winner spending a romantic night with Chris. Just so happens the winner is a frontrunner in the race for the Bachelor’s heart, and she leaves the other five women in the dust. An amorous mood is set at dinner overlooking the glittering city by the bay, and Chris has a chance to find out about another side of this stunning beauty. Will she capture his heart or leave without a rose?

Anxiety fills the cocktail party, as one of the women wants to make sure that Chris really understood the eye-opening message she delivered at the campsite and another questions him about the type of women who he considers rose-worthy. But one jealous lady has had her fill, and in a dramatic confrontation, accuses the Bachelor of not being there “for the right reasons.” However, Chris takes matters into his own hands and stuns the rest of the remaining bachelorettes with a serious announcement. 

At the end of the evening, 11 women remain in the chase to capture Chris’ heart.

Ashley I., 26, freelance journalist, Wayne, NJ

So Ashley I. told Chris she is a virgin and Chris freaked out? (according to tvgrapevine preview)  Hahahahaha.

I don't know if this program can go much lower; this race in wedding dresses is really scraping the bottom of the barrel.  JMHO.

I guess I missed a few previews.  You know, it's occurred to me that this season is featuring "wounded warriors."  One just lost her father, two are widows with sad stories.  Perhaps next season will feature ex-soldiers who suffer with PTSD or other war injuries.

Let's face it.  They've run "crazy" into the ground, as well as drunken fools.  I suppose exploiting personal tragedy is the logical next step.

One more preview before tonight's episode:

Ashley I., gets frustrated that Jade is going on a princess-themed date and she's not.
"All I want to do is go on a date and dress up like a princess and somebody is (else?) is getting it," she griped. "Nobody in this house would appreciate this specific date more than me."

Perhaps Ashley I should spend some time thinking why she was not picked for this date.  Hopefully Chris sends her packing tonight.

Is it just me or did the camping date seem juvenile?

And more and more, they're showing Chris is not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to conversation.

Singly -- Both group dates were juvenile.  I didn't watch the mud race portion as I thought that was really dumb.

Chris has NO conversation skills at all.  It was embarrassing to watch him.  JMHO.

rkc, I enjoyed your recap and your sentiments.  I, too, was ready to throw something at Ashley.  Good God, we get it!  You're a VIRGIN!!!  And it's a wonder you haven't been raped because of your teasing.

The more I think about Kaitlyn....  You know, I'm thinking that while she may be "earthy" (for lack of a better word), she may be the only girl who's being herself.  No pretense, no fake loftiness or love affair with makeup.  Obviously, no problem with expressing herself in no uncertain terms.

And LOL at the gladiator description.  I found myself wondering if Jillian went on and on about fitness at their dinner because Chris couldn't come up with any conversation.  However.... he should have had something to add to the convo because he's been working out with what's-his-face from Andy's season.  Again, the edit.  Regardless, I couldn't stand her and her muscles, so I'm glad she's gone.  A happy farewell to Ashley S, too.

It puzzles me that someone Chris' age could be happy on such juvenile group dates.  TPTB seem to be targeting to the teen generation this season.

I believe the targeted demographic for this program is women between 18 and 34.  If so, the group dates fit perfectly with the lower end of this age group.  If nothing else, and not in defense of TPTB, they must run out of ideas after a while.....and one day they will be completely out of ideas and hang this whole thing up.
