After talking with them, he went to bed. He had another busy group date planned tomorrow.

The next day was another group date. This date was with Naveena, Courtney, Jasmine, Kayla, and Alison.

They met Brian at Rancho Park Golf Course. He liked to golf on occasion, though he was still a novice at the game. All went into the clubhouse for clubs and balls.

They were playing three holes. The lady with the best score would win the rose. Brian played with them.

On the first hole, a par four, Naveena, Kayla and Courtney sliced the ball into the woods. Jasmine, Alison, and Brian drove it straight down the fairway. The ladies would both par the hole. Brian bogeyed the hole. Kayla got a double bogey; Courtney and Naveena each got an eight.

The second hole was a par three. All five reached the green in two, with Naveena the closest to the hole. Courtney and Jasmine would both bogey the hole. Everyone else parred, including Brian.

The final hole was a par five. Kayla again sliced her tee shot into the woods. She gave up. Courtney, Alison, and Naveena drove their first shot into the rough. Jasmine and Brian drove down the middle of the fairway.

Jasmine and Alison reached the green in three. The rest of them took four. Naveena finished with a six, as did Kayla. Jasmine, Courtney, and Brian would par the hole. Alison drained a thirty-five foot putt to birdie the hole, thus winning the competition and the rose.

The six of them would go back to the clubhouse for lunch and conversation. The topic of Courtney's boyfriend never came up.

Back at the mansion, again, the rest of the ladies enjoyed a day by the pool. That is, everyone except Julie.

She took some private time in the confessional to reveal her plan. She was mainly there to become famous at the expense of Brian and the ladies. She had no intention of marrying Brian, but wanted him to think that she did. She was not going to tell anyone else of her plan for fear they would reveal it to Brian.

When they returned, he took time again by the pool to get to know more about the rest of the ladies.

The next day was the final group date, with Denise, McKenna, Julie, Lisa, and Amber. They loaded a van bound for Las Vegas.

When they arrived at the Bellagio, Brian was waiting for them. He liked playing online poker, but never got the chance to play the live version.

The six of them would play Texas Hold 'Em. The winner would get a rose, unless Brian won. If he won, no one would get a rose. On the way to the table, Brian looked over and saw someone who bore a strike resemblance to Candace.
