Previously on "The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman," our two local gals were still in the running towards becoming America's Next Ex-Girlfriend.
The inevitable "boot camp" episode began with the requisite drill sergeant screaming at the women to get out of bed during the wee hours of the morning, followed by running in place, push-ups, and screaming questions like, "DO YOU HAVE ANY NOTIONS WHY YOU THINK YOU SHOULD...BE...ANDY'S BACHELORETTE?!" (!) "BECAUSE I'M THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE, SIR!" That answer came from Bevin who, by the way, also proved she would do anything to get a rose, including breaking an ankle during the jumping-through-tires portion of the boot camp. Andy the doctor (and an officer and a gentleman) came a runnin' to give his diagnosis (a fracture), and a rose. Only one was true. So far. (Turns out she just sprained her foot.)
More group dates. The first group, which did not include either of our locals, went to some mud baths. Muddy man nipples? No an appealing image. Let's move on.
Bevin returned from the hospital to reveal that along with a rose, Andy had given her...a watch? A shiny giant man's watch? What the hell? Is she retiring?
The second group date also didn't include either of our locals, which meant Tessa would be going on a "two-on-one" date with Peyton. Let's skip ahead to that, shall we? (Did we mention this show is 90 MINUTES LONG?!) They learned the date would...involve dressing up as sailors. At least that's what the bag of sailor clothes implied. They also learned that at the end of the evening, one of them would be sent home.
They met Andy on the U.S.S. Midway aircraft carrier, and he gave them a tour, mentioning more than once that he was "in his element"... in close quarters with thousands of men. Then he proceeded to whip out a stethoscope and play doctor. After the sun set, they ate their romantic two-on-one dinner, while the Rose of Doom loomed on the table.
Peyton and Tessa both got chances to gush over and suck up to Andy in private. During Tessa's time, she and Andy expressed their mutual love for San Francisco, (with Andy pointing out how much he loves the Marina. Of course.) Tessa also confessed that when she wasn't around him, she didn't really know if she was meant to be there. But when she WAS with him, she knew she was. Guess she convinced him, because she got the rose.
Which means both of our local girls still have the chance to lose all of their dignity in the coming weeks!
Previously on "Survivor: Fiji," Yau-Man stayed alive after a merge of the tribes, and maintained a firm grip on his Hidden Immunity Idol.
Bula Bula, night 24, and the Tribal Council returned to camp, sans Michelle. The self-proclaimed "Four Horsemen" (if we never hear that moniker used again in a reality show setting, it will be too soon) were on the verge of imploding over their own Hii. Hee hee! The next morning, Earl tried to figure out who he could trust. Aside from Yau, of course.
Reward challenge! The survivors had to answer a serious of questions about their tribe mates, and then try and guess who the majority picked for the answers. And then smash something. Reward was an overnight stay on a yacht. Cassandra won, and sent Mookie to Snakes On an Island. She also picked Dreamz, Boo, and Yau-Man go on the boat trip with her. Once on the boat, Yau-Man got a little loose lipped, hoping to get Dreamz on their side, and admitted Edgardo was their next target. Back at camp, Dreamz revealed to Earl, Cassandra, and Yau-Man that Mookie had a Hii.

Immunity Challenge, and it was one of endurance. The survivors had to use their arms and feet to remain balanced between two walls, with their foot pegs getting smaller every 30 minutes. And Yau-Man won! He. Is. Awesome.
Back at camp, the plotting began. Because the "Four Horesemen" were convinced that Earl had a Hii, they decided to vote him out. Because they didn't think he'd use it? It didn't really make sense. Eventually they decided to vote out Cassandra. Mookie, in turn, gave the Hii to Alex, but Dreamz saw this happen, and told Yau-Man and the gang, who then decided to vote out Mookie. Then Stacy convinced them to vote for someone know one would suspect: Edgardo.
Tribal Council! Before the votes were read, Probst asked if anyone wanted to play their Hii...and Alex stood up and handed his little turtle to Jeff. And by "little turtle" we mean the Hidden Immunity Idol. Hilariously, once the votes were read, NO ONE VOTED FOR ALEX. His Hii was wasted, and Edgardo was voted out. Totally. Awesome. Except not because it was revealed the Hii would be re-hidden and new clues placed on Snakes On an Island. We think it would have been much cooler if that Hii was totally out of play now. At least, it would makes its play by Alex all the more hilarious. Or Hii-larious, as the case may be.



I so hope no matter the outcome of this year's Mayor Race that Gavin goes on The Bachelor.
As mayor, he could do a group date to Homeless Connect days.
As single philanthropic billionaire, he could do group dates at his resturant where the women are waitresses..
Wait, maybe Gavin shouldn't date people who work for him...
(where's that goat now?)
