The Playoffs, Scores

Laura: 130

Victoria
Victoria – 20
Eliminated
+5 for being featured in a Blooper
Bonus: +15 for telling Juan Pablo to stop using English being his second language as a crutch


Lucy
Lucy – 20
+5 for being featured in a Blooper
+5 for earning audience applause
Bonus: +10 for jumping on Chris Harrison at the end

Kelly
Kelly – 30
+5 for crying 
+5 for being featured in a Blooper
Bonus:
+20 for calling Juan Pablo out on his homophobia. Sure, it was probably sanctioned if not fully commissioned by ABC, but still. Kudos for not pretending it never happened.

Andi
Andi – 45
+5 for earning audience applause
+10 for being featured in two Bloopers
+15 for allowing Chris Harrison to pretty much force her to say she was maybe, sort of feeling like she could potentially some day fall in love with Juan Pablo even though we all know that is, in NO way, the case.
Bonus: +10 for not blaming Clare at all for the ocean debacle. On any other season, there is no way that the girls would have been on her side
+5 for saying she pretended to sleep
+10 for saying the thing she liked about Juan Pablo was that he was attractive. We know, Andi. We know. 
Non-Bonus Aside: Throughout the season, Andi and Juan Pablo definitely had the most playful vibe and...was it just me or were they still totally flirting with that whole "eet's okay" thing
There's no way she's not the next Bachelorette, right?  Chris Harrison doesn't ask just anyone if they still believe in every lasting love!

Alli
Alli – 15
+5 for being in a blooper
Bonus: +10 for giving really one of the only concrete stories of the night. The whole asking her where she wanted to be in five years and then where she wanted to be in three years was such a perfect example of what was mainly just discussed in vagueries by all the band wagon jumpers-on. I'm sad they didn't let Alli talk at all this season. She seemed reasonable and pretty cool. 


Melissa: 80

Sharleen
Sharleen - 50
+10 for being called the "most intriguing person we've had" by Chris Harrison. It is intriguing that some people don't think this show is the key to lasting love.
+20 for earning whispers of audience disbelief
+ 5 for earning audience applause...for defending Juan Pablo's homophobia
Bonus: +5 for saying Juan Pablo had "Buyer's Remorse" for sleeping with Clare. I actually don't think she meant it like that, but it's rather surprising that the only real cattiness of the night would come from her.
+10 for admitting at long last that it was just physical

Chelsie
Chelsie - 10
+10 for being featured in two Bloopers and completely failing to otherwise show up

Kat
Kat - 15
+10 for being featured in two Bloopers
Bonus: +5 for voicing her totally reasonable annoyance at not being considered one of the "special ones"




Lauren S
Lauren S. - 5
Bonus: +5 for point about "honesty." There was a lot of griping about Juan Pablo and, for the most point, I didn't score the pretty much constant reiteration about how he was unfair and used his daughter as a crutch and whatnot, but Lauren S. here had a legitimate gripe. I only wish she could have expressed it a bit more coherently when Juan Pablo had been on stage.



Maggie
Maggie - 0
Poor Maggie. Or perhaps, Lucky Maggie. I suppose it largely depends on your perspective!




Maggie: 55

Lauren H
Lauren H. - 0
Poor Lauren H. definitely just joined the Juan Pablo-bashing party and forgot to bring a gift. Her problem was not so much that Juan Pablo wasn't really listening...it was more likely that he was.



Cassandra
Cassandra – 20
+5 for appearing in a Blooper
Bonus: +5 for saying Juan Pablo was either disrespecting her or disrespecting Renee. An excellent illustration of the hypocrisy. 
+10 for saying he shouldn't have gone on the hometown with Renee and shouldn't have met Ben. Cassandra was many, many times less vapid on the WTA then she was on the actual show. 

Danielle
Danielle – 0






Elise
Elise – 0








Renee
Renee – 35
+10 for being featured in two Bloopers
+15 for already being in a relationship
Bonus: +10 for saying the things she likes about Juan Pablo are that he's "super handsome and has an accent." Knowing only that about him is how we got into this mess in the first place!
