CHESSNOID

Last night’s episode of the Bachelorette with DeAnna Pappas didn’t disappoint. My wife was busy reading the forums at Fans of Reality TV and the postings were flying from the Graham fallout. There is so much stuff that is edited in and out of the show, I don’t think we get the full effect of what these people are going through. I think my wife was right when she told me that this was Graham’s to lose and that he did. DeAnna really cried hard and seemed to have some pent up anger when she let him go. He seemed like he wanted to say stuff but couldn’t express himself, and eventually pulled out a letter. Check out this youtube video.

I asked my wife to see if anyone has typed out what the letter said based on the screen caps from the show. She was able to read a part of it but not enough to make any sense of it. I tried to do a quick search of it on google but no luck yet. I did find this transcript of the words spoken after Graham was cut from RealityTVWorld:

However Graham disagreed with DeAnna’s comments and accused her attempting to “make it easier on yourself by thinking that,” causing DeAnna — who appeared additionally frustrated about Graham’s non-emotional reaction to his elimination — to angrily vent further.

“Believe me, this is not easy on me Graham!” an increasingly emotional DeAnna told Graham. “You have no idea what I’ve been going through the last few days. You have no idea. You have no idea how hard it was to walk down there and stand there and call out those three names and you stand there swaying back and forth and smiling. You have no idea how hard that was!”

“I can not be with someone who can not open up to me, that can’t deal with problems in a relationship, that can’t talk about things,” DeAnna told Graham as he interspersed her comments with brief sarcastic replies.

“Obviously you don’t see in me what you need to continue on, so your decision is easy now,” Graham told DeAnna derisively.

But ironically, Graham’s first visible sign of anger about his elimination only seemed to upset DeAnna further

“You don’t get why it’s not — because I care deeply for you,” said DeAnna. “I have true, genuine feelings and all I wanted was you to be that person in the end and open up and truly let your guard down and see what this could have been. But you couldn’t do that.”

“I am saying goodbye to the one person I thought I was falling in love with, that’s how hard this is for me,” DeAnna told Graham as she began crying. “Because the one person that I let my guard down [to] and was falling for was not doing the same to me and I can’t take the chance that in the end I would be standing there and you wouldn’t choose me in return. When you leave, it ends here.”

After turning away from the cameras to shield some apparent tears of his own, Graham presented DeAnna with a parting gift: a handwritten letter.

“I knew there were some things that I wouldn’t be able to say to you, so I’d like you to keep this,” Graham told DeAnna as he placed the letter on the bench alongside her. “You don’t have read it — you can throw it away, burn it, do whatever — but everything I put in there is for you and for you alone. Not for any show, not for any person but you. You don’t have to, but it would mean a lot to me if you read that one day.”

While viewers didn’t get to see the letter’s contents, DeAnna did opt to read it after he left the mansion, and the words seemed to make her begin to question her decision.

“It was extremely hard to let Graham go because I’m falling in love with him, my heart is breaking right now,” a still-crying DeAnna told the cameras. “All he had to do was open up. I’m tired of dating people that don’t know what they want. And now I’m scared that I’m second-guessing my decision [to let Graham go]. First and foremost I want to be in love, and what if that doesn’t happen now?”

I was surprise to find these photos of Graham that seemed to be professional model pix in the forums. Where do these fans find these things. LOL.

After the show ended, my wife and I laughed at how fast she seemed to get over him when they showed her in next week’s episode preview. After watching this show, I think all 3 guys could be Mr. Right for DeAnna. I can’t wait for next week when they show the fantasy dates. Hopefully, it will have more insight on how she feels about them. In all the voice overs she does, she is always talking about how perfect all of them are and how she could fall in love with them, and how they all have the qualities every woman would want in a husband. I think she is leaning towards Jeremy, but you can never tell with ABC and its special editing who it will be in the end. There is a screen cap where Jeremy is leaning over with his hands in his face that shows him sobbing. I remember seeing that video and wasn’t sure who it was. There is speculation that he crying because he is let go and is next to be booted on the next episode. If that is the case, then that leaves Jesse the snowboarder from Colorado and Jason the single father from Seattle, Washington.
