First family: Open up for the Cox's!
Was that as mean as it sounded? My bad.
But when a guy meets his g/f's mom he can't help but flash forward 25 years to see what his girl will look like... Whatever, I still like Lindzi, regardless of if she showers in bronzer or not.
Next up: The Boguskie's!
AKA Fred Phelps from the Westboro Baptist Church. Real good, dad, make poor frizzy Kace freak out. Have you already forgotten about her little "problem?" You don't want to make her start p-u-r-g-i-n-g again, do you?
The only thing we got out of this visit is that Kacie is NOT allowed to move in Ben. Never ever ever. We also learned confirmed that she has officially given up on her hair.
And Ben looks like an uglier version of Matt Camden.
And together their babies' would look like this:
Or this:
Next stop: The Sterlings!
If this right here isn't reason enough why these two shouldn't be together, well then I don't know what is. And after seeing Ben in cowboy boots I pretty much stopped paying attention to this date. Nicki talks too much and Ben ends every statement with a question. ? Over it real fast. ?
And let's not pretend we weren't all just anxiously waiting to see what kind of Satan had spawned Courtney. Damn you ABC, making us wait until the very end!
Last but certainly not least: The Robertsons!
I think we were all initially disappointed when we found out our suspicions were wrong and Courtney's father was not actually Jafar.
Darn it!
Mr. and Mrs. Robertson actually seemed quite normal even. Except for the fact that when Court and her mom spoke to each other in the same high pitched Minny Mouse voice my dog actually started to whimper and had to leave the room.
And then this happened and I started to whimper and had to leave the room. A faux wedding? Really? Courtney is so deviously smart/crazy it's a bit intimidating.
The thing that always gets me about the girl who gets sent home after the hometown dates is that Ben isn't just saying "I don't like you," he's actually saying, "not only do I not like you, I hate your family too." Ouch Kacie B! It's back to Westboro Baptist for you.
I guess Ben just really wanted a girl he could move in with. And who could straighten her hair.
And in the end, Kacie's reaction said it all. "What did I do? What? Why do I even love? What do I do now?"Because if you're not in love and on the path to marriage there simply is no reason for living.
As for me, I keep living to meet Ben's family next week.
Can't wait.
