1-on-1 dates don't always equal true love on 'The Bachelorette'

NEW YORK -- The guys recapped the crazy rose ceremony from the day before where JoJo decided to keep both Alex and James. Alex is upset that he got a pity rose, but hopefully he doesn't waste his time focusing on that. Chris Harrison showed up and told the guys that JoJo is very smart and independent and that if she wanted someone gone, they would be gone. There would be three one-on-one dates and one group date. The only date rose would be the group date rose and the rest of the roses would be given out at the rose ceremony. Chris Harrison left a date card behind for a private ride to the countryside in Argentina with JoJo, it read, "Alex, I gaucho on my mind." Alex was excited that he got the first one-on-one, and even the guys said he could just stop complaining now!

JoJo picked Alex up in a limo and they rode together hand in hand. Meantime, the guys rode a very colorful bus to their destination. Alex and JoJo snacked on some chips and chatted about random stuff on their trip. JoJo said that so far, she's having trouble connecting romantically. That could be a bad sign! Back on the bus the guys did a rap about how short Alex is, and in the world of amazing editing, it cut to Alex doing a really bad rap about JoJo.

They arrived at a farm to try out being Argentinian Gauchos. Alex dressed the part and he looked pretty adorable. JoJo thought he looked pretty good too! On the bus, the guys stopped at a roadside stop to eat some mystery meat as they talked about whether or not JoJo might send someone home on the one-on-one dates. I guess we'll have to wait and see! Alex did his best to impress JoJo as they rode holding hands through the fields. He told her she looked like a Ralph Lauren model. The gauchos then showed their amazing connections with the horses and how they could pretty much treat the horses like dogs, rubbing their bellies! Then they got to lie down and nuzzle the horse. It was pretty amazing! When they were done, they walked over to a fence to do some kissing. Alex feels like he is falling in love with JoJo.

Alex and JoJo enjoyed a dinner with wine as they were serenaded outside. JoJo said that she had a lot of fun with him and she doesn't have any doubts or fears and she hopes that he doesn't either. Alex said he's done letting a cloud of doubt hang over his head.

Another date card arrived for the rest of the guys back at the hotel and it read, "Jordan, let's toast to love." Jordan is getting his second one-on-one! He's very excited, but of course, the other guys are not excited at all for him.

JoJo asked Alex who she would meet if she were to go home with him for the hometown dates the following week. He named off some close family members and he told her that he knows that he is falling in love with her. He said he didn't want to have any regrets so he was just going to put it out there. JoJo did not seem thrilled. She told him that she's had a great day with him and it's wonderful that he's being so "expressive" but, when he says that he's falling in love with her she doesn't feel as excited as she should feel. She says it kills her because she wanted to be able to say that she was feeling it too, but she couldn't say it. Ouch! Poor Alex, that can't be easy to hear! He did not see it coming at all. She said that she didn't want to lead him on and make him wait for a rose ceremony to send him home.

Fresh off dumping Alex, JoJo took off in a private jet with Jordan to go wine tasting. You can tell she is really into Jordan! They can't stop touching each other! Once they landed, they went to a vineyard where they crushed grapes "I Love Lucy" style. They hopped into a bin of grapes and stomped around. Then she went into his bin too where they played footsie with the grapes. Ew... then they drank their foot-stomped grapes. They said it actually tasted very good! Later, they stripped into their bathing suits and did some kissing in a hot tub. She asked him what was on his mind and he said that he really wants her to meet his mama.

Another date card arrived and it read, "Chase, James, Robby, let our love soar." That meant that Luke got the final one-on-one date this week.

During her dinner with Jordan, she asked him how he was feeling about next week. He said that he feels great about bringing him home. He told her that she would meet his older brother Luke and his mom but his famous quarterback brother Aaron would not be there. He said that they don't have much of a relationship because of the way Aaron's chosen to "do life". He said while he's chosen to stay close to his family, he has not. He understands he is under a lot of pressure, but they really don't talk at all. Jordan also talked about how walking away from football and his relationship with his brother doesn't define him. He told her that he just wanted her to know everything because he cares about her a lot and doesn't want to mess it up. She told him not to worry, and then he dropped the official L-bomb. Jordan told JoJo that he LOVES her and he's wanted to tell her for weeks! She told him that it makes her "so happy" and he leapt at the chance to kiss her. He said that he can't wait for her to meet his parents and his brother and he's truly in love and wants them to fall in love with her as well.

For the group date, JoJo met up with her three men in a hotel suite with room service and champagne. It wasn't local cuisine, it was junk food! James decided to see how many French fries he could fit in his mouth. Chase thought it was hilarious and added that James looked super unattractive doing that. Then the guys did a massage train and it was really awkward for them! They also played Pictionary. She loved it and thought they were all a lot of fun. As they drank more, they decided to play "Truth or Dare" and she dared Robby to strip down into his underwear and run the hallways. He even mooned the guys! Then, James tells JoJo right in front of everyone that Robby looks at all the Argentinian women! JoJo was a little perturbed.

During some time apart from the rest of the guys, Robby told JoJo that he only met his ex-girlfriend's mother once in three years, which he says wasn't good because he is all about family. They had a big fight and broke up four months before the show started taping. She was worried that maybe he wasn't ready to move on, but he says he most definitely is. He said he is ready to get engaged to her. Chase took her to another room and he did his best to try to talk about his feelings. He says he feels confident in their relationship. He still wasn't quite ready to say that he loves her just yet. I feel like these two take a lot of time to talk about what they are ready for all the time instead of really getting to know each other! He did say that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her! It's weird that he says that but doesn't say that he loves her. Don't trust it JoJo! During his time, James said that he feels like they have a "sweet" relationship. She told him that he has every quality of someone that she would want as a husband and father to her future children. She feels like they can be themselves when they are around each other. He told her that she would meet his parents and she will definitely feel loved by them. Aw! Ok, I like him again this episode.

Once the conversations are over, the guys waited to see who would get the group date rose which would mean JoJo would be meeting their family. They bickered about who was a front-runner and Robby said that despite everyone thinking Jordan is a front-runner, he feels like one too. She gave it to Robby and the other guys were so upset that he's right, he is a front-runner! He and JoJo spent some more alone time together kissing once the other guys left.

The next day, JoJo met up with Luke for their one-on-one date. They met up at a stable where they could play with some horses and get to know each other better. They also did some skeet shooting at a range and JoJo shot one of the targets! That's not easy! Luke gave her a celebratory kiss. She asked him if he was ready to bring her home and he said absolutely. JoJo said that she can easily picture a future with Luke and she's excited that he would want to figure out a future with her instead of having everything all planned out.

Luke returned back to the hotel and told the guys, he wasn't getting a second half of a date because the rose ceremony was going to be that night! Wow! He still feels secure about getting a rose, but Chase and James were thrown for a loop. They were really counting on that extra time with JoJo, but her mind is made up. As Luke put it, "The hay's in the barn". Ha! The men boarded a horse drawn carriage and headed out to the rose ceremony. You know, just a bunch a dudes riding in a horse drawn carriage together.

JoJo has given just one rose out and that was to Robby. She gave her remaining hometown date roses to: Luke, Jordan, and Chase. That meant that James was eliminated and going home without JoJo. He was extremely gracious and thanked her for being so sweet to him. She told him that she never wanted to hurt him and they cried together.

Next week, JoJo meets the families! It looks like JoJo gets accusatory towards Robby and for some reason, we don't know who it involves, but JoJo says her heart is broken!
