If I had to guess, I would think that about 90% of this show is producer driven...Jason looked in pain during that tattle tale thing during the rose ceremony. That was a dead give away to me that most of this is producer driven and not from Jason.

Re: What's up with that edit??!!

Another editing issue or concern... I don't think we have yet to see a RC party where Jason spends any time with Melissa. Obviously they are spending time together at the cocktail parties but why can't they even show us a snipit of video? Is it too telling or is it just to keep Melissa hidden? Either way it's annoying!

i truly believe the whole thing was producer driven, the moment Natalie called girls out on being mean......CH at the RC helped that right along too.....

Jason doesn't have a way with words, the situation could've been handled differently.

I think Jason it overly honest with his facial expressions and how he deals with situations. He doesn't hide how he feels.

Re: What's up with that edit??!!

I respect Jason for sending Natalie home instead of dragging her along to make it easier on himself. I think she left him with an earful (we didn't hear all of it) but the editing made it easy to see the lack of a love connection. I liked the editing on that part of the show - they showed us how he didn't want to kiss her and then realized he needed to send her home. She was embarrassed and felt rejected and had to remove the diamonds which was as Jason said "salt in the wound". It was painful to watch but showed Jason isn't just taping a TV episode, he is trying to choose love for himself, despite how it makes him look. I know Jason is a softhearted person and Natalie's elimination made me have more respect for him as a man with backbone.

Agreed, Minney. We know that Jason shows all he is feeling...can't hide it! It was the same way with Andy and his Tessa. He smoldered with sexy Bevin, but was a love-sick puppy with Tessa. TPTB couldn't show as many interactions with Andy and Tessa for that reason.

I hope they will allow us to see more of the lovestory with Melissa, if she is his F1.

I'm still trying to get why Jason was freaking out so much from what Natalie said.

She stressed over and over to him how unfair she thought he was being in letting her go and keeping other people who were mean and causing havoc in the house.

1. Even though the connection was there with her, she made him feel guilty nonetheless with her accusation that she was getting cut when there were others there whose intentions were clearly less honorable than hers.

2. He realized that since he could not see what was happening in the house, there was a very real chance he could keep the wrong person(s) out of ignorance.

I realize that last night's conversations at the RC were uncomfortable but if I was Jason I'd want to know who was causing the trouble in the house to and want to get rid of them. I think the participants of the conversation told more than the actual words did - Megan, Lauren and Erica - all seemed like they were trying to justify themselves - the innocent don't have to say a word!

eta - hope that made sense... trying to type and watch your inauguration at the same time LOL
