After last night's episode of 'Bachelor Pad,' previews for next week's exciting BP finale revealed that the remaining 6 contestants will be competing in a ballroom dancing competition. Their teachers will be none other than coreographers from 'Dancing With The Stars!' They showed Edyta, Louis & Chelsea prepping the former Bachelor/Bachelorettes for their big dancing debut. With audio clips of Kovacs saying " Edyta is so hot, it's unbearable," it will no doubt be a great finale! The Final 6 competing are David, Natalie, Kovacs, Elizabeth, Kiptyn & Tenley. What makes the finale even more exciting is that they are competing as couples (David & Natalie, Kovacs & Elizabeth, Tenley & Kipytyn).
If you missed last night's "Bach Pad' here's the lowdown. It started out with a bang when we learn that right from the getgo, 3 women were being let go. They had a spin the wine bottle competition which ultimately led to Nikki, Ashley & Gwen to their limo rides home. It all of a sudden became reminiscent of 'The Bachelor,' as the 3 girls were seen on the verge of tears feeling rejected by the men & wondering where/how they will find love. Noone ever even mentioned the $ part where they were leaving $250,000 behind.
Chris also informed everyone that they were hereon out competing as couples. The boys got to pick whom they wanted to couple up with, during the spin the bottle game, and none of their choices came as a surprise. David & Natalie, Kovacs & Elizabeth & Tenley & Kiptyn & Jesse & Peyton. Matched up as couples, they then competed in a water balloon toss. The winners of that competition were David & Natalie. Their date started out in a yellow Lamborghini where they drove up the coast took in a beautiful sunset & made the best of their photo opp with pictures. Then they drove off to their fantasy suite date in this beautiful mansion, which happened to be where Molly & Jason had an overnight. Over sake & sushi the two opened up to one another revealing their past & what they would do with the $ if they won. Natalie having come from a stable loving background, wants to pay off her student loans & send her parents on a trip. David wants to start a biz in Tampa. He was brought to tears when telling Natalie of his recent fight with his Dad, with whom he's not currently talking to. His parents divorced when he was 9, which led to him puting up a wall as far as relationships go. He seems to have lowered his guard a little with Natalie and appreciated it when she told him he's one of the most amzing me she's ever met.
Back at the house, Kovacs and Elizabeth decide it would be fun to pretend to have an overnight date at the house's fantasy suite. They sneak in and have a bubble bath & stayed overnight. The housemates find out about the tryst but funny enough, they never get in trouble for the act. We do hear a convo with Elizabeth & Kovacs while they are under the covers, where she's saying she wishes he put more effort into the relationship and was more romantic. He seems to be trying to keep the peace with her for the game's sake. Last night there was also a convo with David & Kovacs about how their strategy from day one worked out. It kind of makes me question if they are sincere as far as with their relationships on the show go. I do however, trust Kiptyn's feelings for Tenley. Last night Tenley was telling Kiptyn that she almost didn't want to go back to real life because their relationship might change and he reassured her that he'd keep it going. On his one on one to the camera, Kiptyn said he made a decision to move forward with their relationship & that he feels honored to have Tenley in his life. Of course hearing that they are now together & planning on moving in with one another helps me to believe his sincerity.
In the end, the couples were going to vote off another couple. What made it interesting is that the obvious choice would be for Jesse & Peyton to go, since the other 3 couples were all "insiders" & very close. However, that was what they were referring to as the "loyalty" choice but strategywise it would actually be smarter for the couples to keep Peyton & Jesse and vote off their biggest conpetition, Elizabeth & Kovacs. Partly because, relationshipwise, they had been together the longest and knew each other the best. It appeared as though Natalie & Tenley were on board to keep Peyton & Jesse. This would have had Natalie vote differently than what David wanted because he and Kovacs had make a pact with one another. Initially the couples were voting as a team, but in the end everyone voted separately. We learn that Natalie changed her mind and voted off Peyton & Jesse to be a team player. In the end it was Peyton & Jesse who got the boot. Jesse on his way out called everyone "fairly fake," as he thought after conversations that the majority would vote off Kovacs and Elizabeth.
So that leaves us with the 3 couples: Natalie/Dave, Tenley/Kiptyn & Kovacs/Elizabeth. What couple do you think will win? It seems at this point it will boil down to who does the best ballroom dance. In that case, I recall from the Bachelor series that Tenley is a dancer. So I will put my bet on Tenley/Kiptyn, with Elizabeth/Kovacs coming in second. Then it would appear that the couple who wins will go head to head with each other for the $250,000. Of course, theres going to be a big twist, so maybe each of the 2 at the end would get to keep the $250,000. It will be a great show!
