I watched a bit of the opening episode, for no other reason that to meet the lovely ladies. Both of them. Usual bunch of girls, most of whom are pretty on the outside but shown to be not-so-pretty on the inside. I don't know who the bachelor is, but think from the comments he must have been a loser on a previous Bachelorette.
As seems to be the growing tradition, many have some sort of schtick for meeting the bachelor. One wore a humongous hat, one told some poems, and one passed on the limo to arrive by horse.
But easily the scene of the night had two girls chatting and touching and all-but making out on the couch. I am pretty sure one even asked for the other's number.
I didn't see the roses, so am not sure if the bachelor gave roses in hopes of a 3-some.
