Richard was the first to get cut on The Bachelorette 4 Episode 3, as he did not receive a rose on their one-on-one date. Following him were Ron (who was begging to be sent home) and Paul (not sure why).
To earn their spot on the one-on-one date, each guy will have to write and perform a song for DeAnna. This would have been a big hit last season when every woman was auditioning for a singing gig (except the blonde chick who wanted to be an actress). DeAnna will be the judge. The guys all suck. Some worse than others. But the key theme is suckage. DeAnna has picked Jesse, who got down on his knees and held her hand while he was singing.
Jesse’s thinking of dressing down, but DeAnna has other plans. He’ll be wearing a tux. I’m not real clear what the point of this is. She says she doesn’t want to change him but wants to see whether he fits with her, which apparently means no goofy jacket and tennis shoes. They take a limo to a theater where it’s just the two of them. Just his luck, when they arrive, he gets to sing his song again. Jesse says he’s stubborn, but he knows DeAnna is as well. He tells her this whole process is real for him. Although she’s normally not attracted to guys like him, she appreciates Jesse. As they’re finishing dinner, she gives him the rose. After dinner, Natasha Bedingfield (apparently she won a Grammy) sings for them.
Brian, Twilley, Sean, Jeremy, Graham, and Jason get the group date. They will be driving stock cars. Whoever gets the fastest speed on three timed laps is promised something special. Graham lives in Manhattan, so he usually just takes the subway everywhere. DeAnna’s surprised that Jeremy didn’t win but was able to tell he’s a very competitive guy. Sean, who loves racing muscle cars, manages to win. With this win, he gets time alone with DeAnna, where he learns that she used to live in Kentucky. Graham decides he doesn’t want to kiss DeAnna because he doesn’t want to be one of a bunch. She lets him know she’s plenty unhappy with this. Following their alone time, DeAnna has decided to give Sean the rose, as he’s managed to change her mind about him.
The guys have a party, which doesn’t start well and continues to not go well. Brian likes hanging out with the guys, Sean’s getting back to the way he was before, and Graham’s ignoring DeAnna. As a joke, they set up a kiddy table for the guys living in the mansion. Robert takes issue with this and ends up sitting all by himself, so DeAnna confronts him. After a little chat, she drags him outside to start some yelling. She tells them to either handle it or go home, then she heads back to her house.
Robert and Fred are going on the two-on-one date, an interesting choice considering they were both living in the mansion for the week. They’ll be having dinner at a mansion. Robert believes she’ll only kiss one person on this date, so he rushes into that. Her response is to let him kiss her on the cheek. Fred’s in less of a rush and less flashy. He just wants to be there with her and spend some time getting to know her. We knew it before the date even started, and the way the date went, this comes as no surprise. Robert will not be getting a rose. It’s not over yet, though. Like Brad (whose name we have to hear for the 938th time), she’s dumping both people. In letting Fred down, though, she pays him a lot of compliments, but he was just stuck in the friendzone. The guys who don’t go on group dates are dropping like flies. This gives Jason the mansion alone to himself with DeAnna, where he’s waiting to comfort her.
Following the bloodbath, only one more person will be heading home.

Brian will be leaving tonight. He realizes that being too close to the guys but not being all that close to DeAnna was his downfall.
