I definite see the racism here. Interesting that of the 3 “drama” situations so far (Demario, Blake/Lucas, Eric), two of them involve black men engaging in stereotypical behaviors: cheating and anger. And understanding that the show is highly produced and edited, it’s obvious this is what the producers want us to see. Just ask: Who found Demario’s girlfriend and brought her to the set so that she could confront him??

I agree. Rachel should be more concerned that guys who didn’t get a date (Iggy) or didn’t get a rose (Lee) are using their limited time with her to talk about someone else. Eric may be insecure, but who wouldn’t be dating a girl you barely get a chance to interact with. He was genuine about his feelings and the other guys are turning it against him. Lee obviously has major issues, but I’m really surprised by Iggy who was concerned that he didn’t get a date with Rachel, then instead of trying to get to know Rachel better, uses his time to rat on Eric. Seriously?
If Rachel wants to avoid drama, like she says, she should send home the gossips. But, clearly her goal is to increase the drama. Why else tell Eric who had mentioned him? What good could that possibly do? None, as we saw.

My predictions? Rachel will probably choose Bryan because she’s really into the romance. But she should at least try to get to know him before getting hot and heavy all the time.
