I think youll like it!
Okay, back to your regularly scheduled recap, bye!)
But Faith, sadly eating strawberries alone in the kitchen, is struggling with feelings of insecurity.
She grips his arm tightly, and he reassures her, I gotcha, babe, which is cute.
They even buzz by the mansion.
I hate you, Susan warmly calls up to the sky.
Gerry is equally wowed by this magical, priceless, once in a lifetime date.
If your date is still good company even then, then thats pretty telling.
Gerry says his attraction to Faith has grown beyond his initial infatuation with her physical beauty.
Faith shares that she had a hard childhood, even experiencing homelessness as a teen.
Youre as beautiful as this rose, he tells her as he offers one to her.
They then climb into a hot tub, in accordance with California state law.
Shes falling in love with him, she tells the camera.
I think she could be the one, he tells the camera.
(Ellen, meanwhile, is a little envious.
I was fine up until the hot tub.

A student of the game!)
Its clear that the Kathy Krisis did not dampen his affection for her, either.
Ever since Gerry took Faith on their extra-high-production-value date, Leslie has been in her feelings.
They sit together and he consoles her, holding her as she cries.
Nobody does that for me, she says.
I will, he says.

Case in point:
Leslie: Im crazy about you.Gerry: Thanks for that!
There is one notable exception, though.
After Leslie tells him shes falling in love with him, he whispers, Youre my girl.
That certainly feels … significant.

And that leaves Ellen.
I hope they are milking productions cotton-candy budget for all its worth and generally having a great time.
I cant wait to be a teammate with you, she says.
Hit another button on the Gerry soundboard: That touches me deeply to hear you say that.
I feel it so much.
Oh my God, Ellen mutters to herself.
Oh God, Theresa mutters to herself.
Oh my God, Im going to faint, Ellen whispers.
He asks if he could walk her out.
I hope you stay positive, because thats you, he tells her.
She cries, they hug, she kisses his hand as he closes the car door behind her.
I like all of these women very much, but Ellen was my favorite by a mile.
May herGolden Bachelorettecampaign begin in earnest.
