Half of this episode was JoJo crying and saying "I don't know" |
Finally we get to go to Phuket, Thailand, where Jordan and Robby get to meet JoJo's family. She tells her family she thinks she loves both of them and "when I'm with Robby, I think of Jordan. When I'm with Jordan, in the back of my head, I think of Robby."
Jordan gets to meet the family first. He shows up and gives everyone silly hats and then it's time for questions. JoJo's mom asks Jordan how he will manage her trust issues. His answer doesn't seem to satisfy her because she tells JoJo she's worried because Jordan is too similar to JoJo and mom's worried that she's blinded by his charm. This is the same mom that told JoJo that she had nothing to worry about with Ben for no other reason except she's beautiful. Then Jordan talks to JoJo's dad and notably does not ask for permission for JoJo's hand in marriage, which will become the scandal of the episode.
Anyway, it's Robby's turn to ingratiate himself with the family. He kills it: professes his love, asks for the parent's blessing to marry her, and even her dad got choked up. JoJo's mom tells Robby she's giving him a princess and he needs to "make her the queen of your heart," so that happened.
After he leaves, JoJo sits down with her parents and two brothers and I think her sister, who says nothing and only occasionally appears in a shot, what they think. They all tell her Robby is perfect. She gets upset and says she doesn't know and why can't they just pick for her because Jordan's great too. One of her brothers points out that maybe she really wants Jordan since she keeps defending him. Good thing JoJo still has one date left with each man to figure it out.
On JoJo and Robby's date, Robby says he wants to get her pregnant like, yesterday. "You have a heart of gold," JoJo says, and Robby whispers, "you're a heartbreaker" as he leans in for a kiss and FORESHADOWING MUCH?
On JoJo and Jordan's date, they argue about why Jordan didn't ask her father for permission to marry her. Jordan says it didn't feel right when he didn't know how she felt and there's still another guy in the picture and JoJo cries because why isn't Jordan just doing exactly what she wants so she has no excuse not to pick him.
Both men then meet with Neil Lane and picked out gaudy diamond rings. Jordan then takes a page out of Ben's books and calls JoJo's parents to ask for their blessing. He then writes a note to JoJo to let her know. Robby also writes a note, so we get to see JoJo cry about how hard her decision is even more.
After some montages of the guys starting shirtless and then getting dressed in blue suits while their engagement rings sit nearby, it's time for the final rose. Robby shows up first to the final rose locale, meaning it's game over. Luckily, JoJo doesn't make him give his whole speech before interrupting and sending him home. They both cry, and then JoJo quickly dries her eyes so Jordan can come make all her dreams come true.
What is with all the baskets and urns?? |
