It's time to play Meet the Parents with Dr. Bland. We begin with Moana, the Paris Pariah. Travis heads to her home town of San Clemente. Moana seems a whole lot less uptight now that she is Stateside. Romantic surfboard smooching ensues. Back at the Moana ranch, ye olde Dad looks none-to-pleased to meet Dr. Bland in the beginning and it only gets worse. The dad asks if Travis is a Christian and in general they don't really seem to like him much and Travis, who seems pretty accustomed to having everyone adore him, seems a bit shaken.

Next Travis zooms up to Canada to see the younger Sarah. She seems a bit ill at ease and over beers lets Travis know that the girls in the house didn't like Moana. Travis doesn't speak ill of Moana but Canadian Sarah doesn't budge saying that she is aggravated and frustrated by the fact that Travis chose Moana as one of the final girls. At Canadian Sarah's house things go fairly well. Travis finds out that Sarah still lives at home. At dinner, Sarah mentions the other girls and is clearly still all turned around about the other girls but after the date she seems more secure and they get cozy on the bed in her room. Very high school.Up next, he goes home to Nashville to meet with Sarah. He seems more excited about being home than being with Sarah. They have good friend chemistry but I am still not feeling the romance factor here. I get the sense that he is forcing himself to try and find the sexy with her. Travis mentions that he wants to roam around a bit and live in different places with surprises the fully domesticated Sarah. She is total wife material. Travis takes Sarah to his house and he hosts a barbecue for Sarah's folks. Her family is concerned because Travis wants to live in the mountains away from Nashville.  Overall they have a very nice time, no drama, all smiles but quite sparkless. Travis keeps talking about their romantic connection but he doesn't seem that interested in her.

Contrasting his visit with Sarah, Travis visits Susan where he is much more interested in being physical. It looks like he can't wait to kiss her. Susan's mom however, is deeply cynical of the situation, knowing that her daughter is more interested in Hollywood than in Travis. We find out that Susan recently broke up with a fiance. Susan's mom talks to Travis about Susan's past and about whether or not Susan should be dating. Susan's mom lets Travis know that Susan may be acting and when Susan's dad talks to Susan it seems clear that she is doing this to get media attention.

Travis heads back to Paris and views videos from the women. Moana is weepy, Susan mentions love, Canadian Sarah is confident and peppy and Tennessee Sarah is her usual cheerful self.

At the rose ceremony Travis chooses Susan (never underestimate the power of hotness), Moana and Tennessee Sarah. He sends Canadian Sarah home. Travis tells Sarah that he is sending her home because she is so young. She  says she is amazed that Travis picked Moana over her. After watching tonight's episode, I am more confused as to why he picked Susan when he is away that she is an actress and even her family has warned him off her.

Next week: Overnight dates in Europe. Will anyone bed Dr. Bland?
