The ladies arrived late in the day so they decided to wait to officially start til the next day. Drake was too nervous to approach any of them, so he stayed in the kitchen and cooked up some food. He really wished he'd learned more cooking from his mother...he doubted he was going to impress them with his mac 'n cheese.
The ladies were getting along surprisingly well...but then, the contest had yet to actually begin. Janice loved the ice cream maker and soon everyone was noshing on peach gelato. There was much brain freeze to be had.
"Did you know that Drake is a descendant of Randolf Ugly?" Natalie asked with excitement. Randolf's writings were legendary, he was a hero to many of the aesthetically challenged.
The ladies were super excited to hear this news. They were all eager to try to get into his good graces tomorrow.
Day 1
Everyone woke up early, and after breakfast Drake plucked up his courage and started chatting with the ladies. After awhile he felt more at ease and began to eat up the attention they were giving him. He started flirting and was happy to see that they seemed pleased with it. "Maybe I'm not so awkward after all," he thought.
He got so wrapped up in things he almost forgot about the party. It got started a bit later than intended.
Feeling more confident, Drake decided to get in the hottub with the ladies and do more flirting.
The ladies started all nodding off. His ego took a bit of hit on that one. And the caterer decided to stop cooking food and work out instead. Overall, the party did not go well.
At the end of the night, he felt he'd had the most connection with Nora.
It turned out Nora was allergic to roses, so he just gave her a hug instead.
And, he sent Isabel packing. There just didn't seem to be any connection there.
"I can't believe he chose that scrawny clown-face over me! The hell with him, he clearly has no taste!"
Everyone headed off to bed. What would the next day bring?
Day 2
The ladies awoke the next day to a line of easels set up in the back yard. They were informed that they were to paint a picture, and the two most highly appraised ones would earn a special outing with Drake tomorrow. The ladies eagerly lined up to paint.
The winners were announced, and they were:
Gloria...
And Janice!
The remaining ladies went on an outing to the park with Drake. Drake knew the ladies were upset about losing the contest so he did his best to compliment them and make them feel good about themselves. To Drake's disappointment Nora, who he had felt the most connection to yesterday, was distant and acted jealous of his flirting with the other ladies. Drake felt a bit bad, but this was what he was supposed to do, right?
Ultimately, he had the most fun with Andrea (he decided to do hugs instead of roses, it felt more personal)
As sad as Drake was to do it, he sent Nora home. She just wouldn't talk to him anymore, and he saw no point in keeping her around.
"I just couldn't bear to watch him with the other women. I totally blew my chance. I need to go home and eat an entire pint of ice cream and watch my soaps" *sobs and walks off*
Two women gone...five women left. What will tomorrow bring? Who will prevail in the end? Stay tuned!
