The boys, part 2

Bentley: Oh, Bentley. Have we ever seen so much effort given to identifying the bad boy from BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE EPISODE? Really, I could've filled in the rest after you told me his daughter's name was Cozy. Spelled Cozy. What kinds of problems do you think she's gonna have when she's 15? Oh, wait. Dad will think it's inevitable and no problem because he hates women. Can someone save this girl before it's too late?

West: The prosecutor from South Carolina. Tragic widower, the bachelor version of Emily. And about as likely to find the kind of deep and abiding love to replace the old one on a reality show.

William: The guy who referred to himself (with a charming laugh) as a "stepping stone," always the last guy girls date before they find the one to marry. Self-effacing, easygoing, lovable, and doomed. He'll have his heart broken at about 4-5. The dead alcoholic dad won't save him. The one we'll be praying gets the boot because he's WAY too good for this mess.

That's it for the ones that got previews. Now on to the one-liners.

  1. By the way, I'm right. William was the one with the no-good impersonations. Yeah, he was charming in his little bio beforehand, but as soon as he did his "Sean Connery" impression (the quotes are there to imply it was awful), he was docked some pretty major points in my book.

  2. I can't believe I missed that. Yeah, impressions are a bad sign. But in the post-piece it looks like he had all the guys laughing. Popular with the boys, bound to be "just friends" with the girl. Pity.

  3. D and I are both convinced that Bentley's comments were about another one of the guys being a jerk. Too much give away to actually be what happens. I bet he gets really far if not to the final two.
