Bachelor Pad 3: Finale!

Last night’s Bachelor Pad finale had it all…

Drama, excitement, shocking twists and of course always the expected scandal.

Michael you are no longer a fan favorite. You had all of America fooled; you really had us all convinced. Rachel was going to be the next Mrs. Michael Stagliani…or at least the gf for a while. Little did we know you had another fling off the camera waiting for you in the wings. You played that game well but in the midst of your puppet mastering you managed to break a heart-actually a few if you count all of America. L it would be an understatement to say, “You disappointed us.” You shocked the world with your ice cold words with not a sign of remorse. You were the guy we liked love and now we love to hate. Holly really did a number on you because you are not the same Michael we once knew or are you. It seems that sometimes the producers like to persuade us to think one way or the other for ratings. boo.

and with that a word from Michael himself...

"I am not sure how everyone is going to react to the finale. I really don't know whether viewers will understand, or if I will look like a bad guy, or a "manipulator"... To close, I would say this: I am sorry to Rachel. I know what it feels like to have those feelings not reciprocated and I hate that she feels like I led her on. I cannot be anymore thankful for the love and support the last few years that I have received from each and every single one of you and can only hope that it continues after this show. If you see me on the street somewhere, and want to, please come give me a hug, let's take a picture, and laugh about the craziness that occupies our Monday nights..."

Miss Erica Rose-you words can be so piercing; cut straight in and just turn. It obvious that you have so much anger and frustration build up against some of your fellow contestants but come on-let it go. Don’t concern with the actions of others, for their actions are their own.  We did however miss your tiny gavel.

BIG CONGRADULATIONS to Blakely and Tony who are now engaged! That came as a big surprise to us all but no one more than Blakely herself as she scanned the room continuously looking for some kind of sign or reassurance that it was indeed real life. So you didn’t win the money after all Blakely but you did win. J yay!

 

"the newly engaged couple"



Nick Who? You all know exactly who I’m talking about now as he shocked America with his nicely plotted revealing of his KEEP!!! This was the guy who “never said 3 words” as Ed said, and “didn’t deserve to be here” as Jaclyn said. Who would have known he would be so sneaky as to take it all home.  He saw how he was being treated from day one and in the end everyone who underestimated, pushed him aside and disregarded him completely got theirs. He really showed the other contestants how an underdog can turn out on top and future contestants how to play the game differently.



"Nick begins to execute his master plan" -by this point he knew he had won.



Me and the BP bestie’s really loved Rachel throughout the entire show and still do. We never wanted to see her lose out on both love and the money but that’s exactly what happened. We feel for you Rach.

On the other hand though we don’t believe Nick was being selfish or cruel in any way. He did get to the top 2 alone and just because Rachel became his partner by default he didn’t owe her a thing. She didn’t want to be his partner, she barely knew his name. Nick knew this and waited till the time was right to tell everyone…EXATLY…HOW …he felt.
