Hey, guys.
I'm Tracy.
And I'm Andy.
And it's the moment we've been waiting for.
We're back.
We're back because--
The Bachelor is back.
You guys, I have been waiting for this forever so we could
give our weekly Bachelor does.
Four months to be exact, right?
That's all we've been waiting?
Four months.
It's been too long.
I've been watching reruns.
All right.
So we need to get right to it.
We can't do it without our favorite recurring--
You know who he is.
You know him, you love him.
He's the Co-EP of The Ellen Show.
Corey Palent.
[CHEERING]
We're back.
You guys, we're back.
Arie's the new bachelor.
And I wasn't that excited at first.
But after watching it, I feel like I was
kind of like getting into him.
I forgot about him.
I'm going to be honest, I forgot about him.
I did, too.
But that was a good set-up package.
It was a good set-up package.
Because I totally forgot about him.
And then I was like, oh, right.
He's nice.
It made me remember how much I loved Emily, also.
I was like--
No!
Uh.
It made me so happy that he didn't end up with her.
She's so sweet, I'm sure.
But like--
[SNORE]
I have to say one thing, though--
can they stop bring Sean Lowe back?
Oh, man.
It's so funny that you say that, because I
was texting with a girlfriend of mine, and I was like,
Sean Lowe?
Is here just hanging outside that mansion?
Because he's there all the time.
He is literally waiting.
Well, did you notice that there were 29 women.
Why?
No, I did not.
Yeah.
It felt glaring to me that Chris specifically said 29.
I don't know if someone's going to come back
or we're going to have an entrance.
So I kept waiting.
I was like, who's coming?
Who's coming to be that 30th.
Oh, I would love it someone came back.
Good angle.
Oh, I know.
So I don't know.
That's kind of a prediction that I have.
All right.
Anyway, but let's talk about some of these ladies,
because we got some good background.
One of my favorites was meeting Tia, a.k.a.
Raven's best friend.
For a second, I was like--
From Wiener.
--maybe Raven will come back.
I know.
Tia saying that wiener joke to him,
like, here's a little wiener.
I hope you don't have one.
Over his head.
He didn't get it at all.
He didn't get it all.
He was like, I don't have one.
It's like--
I don't have one of these.
She's like, you better not have one.
Yeah, I actually do.
I thought that was actually pretty cute.
It was hilarious.
Very clever.
I want to also talk about somebody
that stuck out in the very beginning in the packages
and then kind of like melted a little away.
Fizzled?
Not even-- became like a more normal person.
When I saw Kendall and we got the taxidermy and the seal
song.
Ugh!
She's singing to the seal in the park.
Wait.
And then I was like--
I mean, it was funny.
I laughed.
No.
I understood her.
And I was like, oh, this is new Ashley S.
Yes.
Yeah.
And then she was like normal the rest of the time.
Chelsea is the villain.
OK?
Obviously, we know that.
And she still hasn't told him that she has a kid.
Well, and she keeps teasing that.
She sounds so annoying.
Well, we know what the big secret is coming.
Yeah, the big secret.
Is that Bekah M., obviously-- who is adorable, by the way,
and very confident.
I liked her confidence.
But they keep teasing that she's young.
She's very young.
She's a nanny, right?
I hope it's more than just that she's 21,
because I feel like I'm going to be disappointed
of just finding out she's 21.
So there's a lot of girls.
That's something I'm really excited about.
I like Bekah.
I like Krystal.
I agree that there's something a little weird there.
We'll see.
But she got romantic music, which
Kaitlyn Bristowe told us--
Yes.
--that when you get romantic music, that could be a sign.
I think she goes far.
I like Becca K., too.
I do, too.
Becca K.'s the one that proposed and she kind of seemed normal.
She was pretty.
I did not like her at first.
But after talking to you, I think she's going to go far.
I do, too.
In a weird way.
But let's talk about Maquel.
Maquel had one of the best entrances.
She came in the car-- in the race car.
She wasn't driving.
She was riding.
She wasn't driving.
[CAR NOISES]
It was like, first stop, the mansion.
I thought she was driving and then I looked closely.
She has like a very weird energy.
I couldn't really feel her down.
And I have a theory that the guy in the tease
comes back for her.
Oh.
Interesting.
There's something--
Well, she's also really young.
Well, so Arie's known as the kissing bandit.
Of course, yes.
And he did some kissing tonight.
He did not disappoint.
It made me really want to kiss him.
Wait.
Who did he kiss?
He kissed--
Brittany and Chelsea.
But she started it, right?
She gave a little peck.
It was just a peck on the lips.
Yeah.
And then she walked away and she's
like, mm, it was so amazing.
Yeah, she was like pillowy lips.
Chelsea--
Yeah?
She goes in for the one, like, hey how are you?
Can we steal time?
And then she goes back right when another woman
is talking to him.
If you're Chelsea, do you give a--
Crap?
Sure.
About what the other women think?
Mm-hm.
And if you're watching, are you like, yeah, she did 'em dirty?
She's a strong personality.
And I think every season there is a strong personality that
always says, I don't care what any of the girls think,
I'm here for love.
Well, let's just say this-- it worked.
Because she got the first impression rose.
I mean, that's what I would do, too.
Take a hike everyone.
Here's the thing, you'll make friends after the date.
Corey's a villain.
He's the cubical villain.
Yes.
You are the villain of the cubical.
[LAUGH]
Yes.
He's the villain of the cubical.
Hold on.
I have to talk about something that
was maybe my favorite part of the entire episode.
OK.
Bekah-- they're sitting on that--
what was it?
A '65 Corvette?
Mustang.
It was a red Mustang.
Mustang.
'65 Mustang.
They're sitting on the hood of the car
and she's like trying to be mature and confident,
and she's like, so--
She's getting deep.
--tell me, in the entire world, three things
that make you excited.
[LAUGH]
Oh.
[GRUNT]
He punted this one so bad.
He was so taken aback about actually having
to have a real conversation.
A real answer.
And he was like, uh, excitement.
[LAUGH]
She goes, excitement--
She calls him out.
She goes, excitement makes you excited?
Let's cheers to excitement, because that's
what we're all in this for.
Cheers for excitement.
I'm not into excitement.
I'm into adrenaline.
We're in for excitement.
The top three things in my life--
To make you excited.
--excitement, pizza--
And adrenaline.
And excitement
--and people.
So let's talk about the rose ceremony.
Because he comes back again-- oh, I loved also-- by the way,
this is a total tangent.
When he comes into the room for the very first time
and he's like, thank you ladies for coming.
And then the producer is literally like, Arie,
you have to take the drink.
Oh, that's right.
It was Chelsea.
Unfortunately, some people did not get the rose.
We lost the Olivia, Bri, Amber, Jessica, Brittane, Lauren
J., Ali, and Nysha.
All right.
So here are the big teases of the season--
the Bekah and Krystal fight.
And there was something with Bekah's age.
We know that that comes out.
So that's something we need to look forward to.
It's like a little battle between these two.
Which by the way, I like them both.
So them fighting made me think, oh, maybe it's
not going to work out.
Because usually people who are in fights--
I don't think you're going to like them both as the episodes
pass.
I don't think--
No, I think-- that's what I'm saying.
Bekah's too young.
It made me question everything.
Bekah's too young.
If he is ready for it, there's no way she's ready for it.
How about the boxing ring?
The boxing ring-- the smashing on the floor.
What was that?
They usually show an ambulance teaser
and then it ends up being part of a date.
And you're like, ugh.
I know.
There was a lot of that.
But there was also a lot of crying.
And then, the next thing was the other guy.
Some guy comes back and makes Arie cry.
He had a southern accent.
A full-on southern accent.
It could be Tia.
My theory is Maquel.
I don't know.
Ooh, ooh, ooh--
I think it's one of the younger women.
Yes.
But we can all agree that we're excited for this season,
even though--
Yes.
Yep.
--despite all the things we--
I'm starting to like Arie more.
Yes.
I think there's some interesting women.
We still need to chop some people, though.
I think it's too busy.
There's a lot of lookalikes.
We need some cuts.
We need some drama.
I called Lauren S. You called-- who's your favorite?
Annalise.
And you like?
No, no, no.
I think--
You like Becca K.
I think Becca K.'s gonna go far.
So Becca K.
Becca K.'s going deep.
Lauren S.
Yeah.
Annalise.
That's our finish line.
OK?
He's going to see under their hood.
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, no!
And thanks to Corey for being with us today!
Yay!
And make sure you turn into our recap next Wednesday.
I gotta go, you guys.
I gotta give out that big check.
I just changed the date on it.
It's 2018.
Bye, Andy.
Bye.
Oh, man.
See you guys.
Have a good one.
