I wonder if they will do this show again. Because if they do, they have to change their editing. It was so obvious that the showdown was set up between Mike and Caleb. David was the little guy that you almost forgot about. Although I did love when he announced that Rachel was a lousy kisser.

And Rachel made it obvious that she would only keep Mike because she thought he'd give up the money for her. But she was really hung up on Caleb. Otherwise she would have dumped him when he acted all cold towards her. But as it got closer to the end, she realized that Mike may not give up the money for her afterall. So since she didn't really love him, she decided to go for it with Caleb who she did like. This was all obvious for us. And why why why do they make her give those really long speeches filled with "buts & howevers". Even the switching to black & white is predictable now. We knew before it started that she was picking Caleb. So we sat through the long boring talks to get there. And it was also predictable about who would have which million at the end. I still think they attach the amount after the guys have chosen. I don't believe it just works out that way for their perfect ending.

And please don't make Mike the next star of the show. I never liked him. Rachel ruined this one for me. Her whiny voice just irritated me. Caleb was a sweetie, but he deserved more. I hope he has dumped her and she is kicking herself for not taking the million.
