The Bachelor meets Survivor. This time on The Bachelor.

Looks like our ring shot is legit. A legitimate "friendship ring".

Sounds like true love. Either that or Lorenzo is at least living up to his contract. Either way, this "relationship" is certain to last longer than Travis'.

Train wreck upon train wreck, and I still hold hope of a happy ending for this show. Isn't that a sign of insanity?

At least there's the sleuthing!

The Insider link

From that article:
"People say, 'Why would you do this show?'" Lorenzo admits. "[Why] go to Italy to fall in love?' I always say, 'Where do you fall in love? It is at a bar? Is it in Central Park if you're walking on the sidewalk? Is it in a carriage?'"

He mentions a carriage and he rode in a carriage with Jennifer in Rome, is he perchance giving a little clue as to where he fell in love?

Have you been listening to Erica on Mix 96.5? She has been on every Monday and she drives the DJ's nuts.

I turned it on yesterday but it was already over. She's been on there like three times but I haven't been able to catch it.

Here is the TV guide show description for 10/31 .. hometown dates..
I'm wondering if the beach interlude would be Jenn in Florida or Sadie in California?? The gun dad.. (shades of Jesse's season.. Tara's dad) wonder who?? Jenn? I'm thinking the wedding dress thing could be either dateline Lisa or Sadie?

Episode Detail: The Bachelor: Rome - The Bachelor: Rome
Lorenzo visits the hometowns of the four remaining bachelorettes. One woman's father terrorizes him with his gun collection, and a friend of another's scares him with a wedding dress while her mother makes him do Pilates on her living-room floor. But at least there's a pleasant beach interlude. At the rose ceremony the field is reduced to three, all of whom will go on overnight dates with Lorenzo.

Local Bachelor contestants out

Galveston event planner Jami Matzke went on a one-on-one date with Prince Lorenzo Borghese on Monday's episode. Despite their dance during a private opera performance, Borghese rejected Matzke and sent her home.

Copyright 2006 Houston Chronicle

Houston socialite Erica Rose and Galveston event planner Jami Matzke were eliminated from the contest to win a prince's heart on Monday's episode of The Bachelor: Rome. But Rose's run on the ABC series is not over.

Both Rose and Matske left the ABC show in tears after being rejected by cosmetics heir Lorenzo Borghese. A third woman also got the snub.

"It's so unfair," cried Rose, who said her exit was due to her beauty and background.

However, a preview of next week's episode showed that Rose will be back to "pit the (remaining six) women against each other."

Wedding dress: Lisa. She has a plan afterall.
Gun Dad: Sadie? Maybe she's a virgin because dad runs all the guys off!
Beach: Jennifer? Less traumatic, fits with the good edit.
No mention of Agnese? We know she's in Venice.

Here's ABCmedianet's latest press release for next week's show

THE WOMEN ARE SHOCKED WHEN ERICA RETURNS TO THE HOUSE TO DETERMINE WHICH LADIES GET ONE-ON-ONE DATES WITH LORENZO, ON "THE BACHELOR: ROME," MONDAY, OCTOBER 23 ON ABC

Lorenzo Personally Pilots One Bachelorette to Roman Baths for Private Pampering and Romance; A Group Date to the Historic Aqueducts Turns Into an Authentic Race Using Roman Chariots; Two Bachelorettes Transform an Ordinary Night into a Skinny-dipping Party

"Episode 904" - In a major surprise to the remaining six bachelorettes, Erica shakes things up when she returns to the house to determine which ladies will get individual dates with Lorenzo. She makes them participate in a "truth exercise," which leaves some of the women in tears. Lorenzo then flies one lucky bachelorette to the Roman baths for a day of pampering and an evening of romance, on "The Bachelor: Rome," MONDAY, OCTOBER 23 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on ABC.

Lorenzo, who is a licensed private airplane pilot, flies one of the ladies in a private plane to the Roman baths for a one-on-one date to Tivoli. Following the flight, the two get intimate in the ancient Roman baths. A group date to the historic Roman aqueducts has the remaining women competing for Lorenzo's affections, as they race each other, riding authentic Roman chariots for a special wish from the Bachelor. Lorenzo also shares a private dinner with another bachelorette in front of the Vatican, which also happens to have the Borghese name on its fagade. Then they take a romantic carriage ride to the famous Trevi Fountain.

Meanwhile, Desiree and Lisa transform a humdrum evening at home when they get a little wild and decide to go streaking and skinny dipping on the villa property. At the rose ceremony, the moment arrives when Lorenzo must narrow the field to just four women - the four who will invite him into their families' homes.

The six remaining women are:
* Agnese, 24, student, who currently resides in Venice, Italy
* Desiree, 22, realtor, who currently resides in Salt Lake City, UT
* Jeannette, 23, teacher, who currently resides in Bloomingdale, IL
* Jennifer, 24, teacher, who currently resides in Pembroke Pines, FL
* Lisa, 25, marketing manager, who currently resides in Portland, OR
* Sadie, 23, publicist, who currently resides in Carlsbad, CA

Hosted by Chris Harrison, "The Bachelor: Rome" is produced by Next Entertainment in association with Warner Horizon Television. Mike Fleiss and Lisa Levenson are the executive producers. David Bohnert and Martin Hilton are the co-executive producers. "The Bachelor: Rome" is broadcast with Spanish subtitles via secondary closed-captioning. This program carries a TV-PG,L parental guideline.

How do we know that the girls actually tell the truth with their answers? Does Erica get the questions from the show producers who have all the girls' backgrounds/dirt? And is Lorenzo there to hear/see all the drama?

Nasty set up IMO.

I'm thinking in the previews, that the girls are talking about Lisa, if Miss Socialite's premise is to get them to talk about the other girls. It's made to sound like they're talking about Erica, but if it's her game, then my first premise stands!

mwcamp · 10-17-2006, 07:10 PM

I'm with you MissKitty,

It sounds like a very nasty set up indeed.

I hope it's only cruel to those who deserve it, then it could be fun.

It sounds more likely to be disgusting than fun though.
