With This Ring, I Thee Ed

By Daniel

Outside, Glen asks Kiptyn is if he's in love with Jillian. "I'm getting there a lot quicker than I thought I would," stammers Kiptyn, and then he talks about Jillian's "zest for life" and she makes him better, and he hopes to make him better, and he wants to get married and start a family and he can "see" himself with Jillian, and blah blah blah, and all of that isn't the same as saying "yes," which is the same as saying "no."

Jillian thinks the day went well, like her boyfriend met the family. Ah, but yesterday you were with your fiancée. Outside, they make out, and then Kiptyn asks when he sees her , and she says "soon. Very soon." And then Jillian lies to us for dramatic purposes and says she's in love with two guys, and she needs to make some decisions.

And then Jillian sits down with her family to find out what they think of the two guys. Tori thinks Ed is well-rounded and good-looking, and more work-oriented, and Kiptyn has a unique love of people and life, and both of those things remind her of Jillian. Peggy says "here for the right reasons" so I'm done with Peggy. Glen says both of them are true gentlemen, but Ed told him that he loved Jillian and asked Glen if he could marry her. "I felt very comfortable with how sincere he was when he said it," says Glen. Jillian asks if they think Kiptyn is falling in love with her but more cautious. Because her family would know better than Jillian would, based on one visit, right. Glen says he thought Ed was "deeper" and Tori busts on him for talking so much about Ed.

So then Jillian pulls Tori outside for some "girl talk" about talks about how she fucked Kiptyn but that she's worried because with Ed, not so much with the fucking (basically). She doesn't know what to do, and she tells us that she wishes she'd get a sign from God, like lightning to strike her. So we agree on something!

There's Ed, talking about his last opportunity to tell Jillian how he feels about her (i.e. have sex with her). Jillian pulls up in a jeep, and they drive off and get cutesy about how beautiful they both are. So they drive to a helicopter, like how many goddamn helicopter rides can we see in one season, like I feel like I'm watching Airwolf at this point. And then they go around and ironically look at eruptions and steam spewing out of holes, and Ed tells us that things were heating up in the helicopter, because Ed is ALL MAN, you guys.

Then they land the helicopter and hike to a "secluded spot" and I hate to tell Jillian that when there is a boardwalk with railings built into the forest, and a hut with a full meal service, it's not that secluded. (And a camera crew! That's totally secluded. -- Angel) They make out and go eat and then Ed talks about how hard it is for him to open up, and then he says she could be one of his best guy friends and also someone he could spend the rest of his life with. Then he calls her a genius, which surprises her (and everyone) and his only evidence is that she's kept him around, and all I can say at this point is that these two pinheads totally deserve each other. They make out and he says he would not leave again, and then they go swimming in a nearby lake. Ed tells us for the eighty millionth time that he's crazy about Jillian, but there's all this pressure on him because of how their last date went. He asks her if she'd like to come back to his place, and she says yes, but she tells us that she's worried that the stress will affect him like last time. Hang on, let me get some Gravol.
