Frank

If you follow "the Bachelorette" you know exactly what I'm talking about. And if you haven't watched this week's episode, STOP. Watch it. Then come back.

Since episode one, Frank has stood out as my favorite contestant. He's cute, funny, quirky and I love the way he and Ali clicked. He has slowly succumbed to a state of paranoia, however, and it has definitely been interesting to watch. He's always stood out as a favorite with Ali, and she never made any attempt to hide it. Yet week by week he seemed to question her feelings for him more and more. Tonight finally explained what's going on with him. If you don't watch, he admitted that he still had feelings for an ex-girlfriend, went to meet with her, and then decided that she was right for him, not Ali. After this revelation, he went to Ali in Tahiti and was completely honest with her about his feelings.

Now I'm sure it upset some people, but I was actually pretty proud of ol' Frank tonight. He was man enough to be honest with both Ali and the ex-girlfriend. It would have been really easy for him to just continue leading Ali on for the sake of the show, or make some sort-of silly last-ditch effort to get her to choose someone else. But instead he manned up and told Ali the truth. His sad lack of communication skills aside, I have to give credit where credit is due. Granted, it wasn't the popular choice. He upset Ali and it obviously hurt him as well. But he did the right thing. And Ali ended up being the one to ultimately prove her immaturity. I'd say this is one of my favorite Bachelorette moments thus far. Good luck to Frank and Nicole.

PS - Did anyone else notice the subtle drama created by the flower in Ali's hair? It was beautiful as she walked up to Frank's room, began wilting as their conversation took an ugly turn, and she ended up dramatically pulling it out of her hair and throwing it on the ground. Classic.
