It looked to me like they were both really tired and fell asleep after a long day in the sun -- totally believable, that happens to me when I spend the day in the sun -- and then after laying on the bed for a while and cuddling and kissing, they (or at least one of them) fell asleep. Who knows what else they said in their explanations of what happened -- ABC probably just showed us the part that would lead us to believe it was some sort of performance failure. When she was sitting on top of him whispering in his hear and rubbing his shoulder, she could have been waking him up -- didn't he look like he had just woken up when you saw his face right after that? Regardless -- I smell something fishy from our boy Ed. Not sure quite what it is but I think there is more to this that we will learn from his (?) "shocking confession" in two weeks...

Reid's the guy that you don't try to squeeze a proposal out of, he's the one you agree to date. I may be the only one who has this opinion, but I really don't want to see him come back. There's been way too much of that this season, and it seems so "orchestrated". Reid coming back professing love would not feel right to me. It would feel like he was persuaded to come back. On a semi related note, I loved the absolutely loved the ridiculous amount of bubbles in the bath last night. I didn't even know that Reid had a wine glass in his hand until it came up out of the bubbles. Awesome.... Let me start by saying I think she sent the wrong guy home last night.

At the end, I kept waiting for the limo's brake lights to flash or Jillian to go get OHCH and tell him she made a mistake. What was that girl thinking sending Reid home??? It just makes no sense. He was by far the best match for her out of the 3, at least from the footage we actually saw. Out of the remaining 2, I hope Kiptyn wins. He at least seems to be a nice guy. I don't like Ed, at all. He seems shady to me. Any guy that wears shorts that tiny can't be trusted. And it really made me mad when he went to find Jillian after she walked Reid out. HELLO! She hadn't returned to you and Kip because she wanted to be alone. Ed of course had to make her sending Reid home all about him. I was so sad last night.

"I wish there was something I could do to reverse this", his comment in the limo ride which was obviously taped much later. When he got into the limo it was daylight, when he makes that comment it is pitch black outside through the rear window. 2. That limo left the curb going slower than people walk. It was as if they were going to stop and he was going to get out and go tell her right then and there that he was an idiot and should have spoken up. 3. Jillian's comments during the finale week previews lead me to believe she was referring to Reid coming back and finally sharing his feelings I hope this is the case, Reid is the best match I think. Could have done without the soft porn. Is it me, am I a prude? Oils can be nice, but on the first intimate encounter? Seems odd that you would jump right to "that" place. All I could think of with the ED issue was Sex and the City and Charlotte going to seduce Trey the night before the wedding and he couldn't "do the deed". I don't think I would have picked Ed under those circumstances. The shorts and light blue jacket would have been the clincher for me. Reasons why I think Reid is coming back:

Then he talks about how he wanted to show Jillian "as much as possible about my sexy legs and hot gut region." Then he laughs. So I am comforted by the fact that Ed knows the shorts are a joke.

I completely agree. Jt, those are good observations about Ed’s tan legs. I completely agree.
