And now the moment we've all been waiting for: the final credits! No, wait. There's more! Jason stands at Proposal Point, looking like he's passing a kidney stone. The first limo arrives, and Harrison greets ... Molly. First runner-up! As Chris leads her halfway down the boardwalk, she says words like "butterflies" and "fairytale". She thinks this is going to be an amazing moment.
Jason greets her. "Before you say anything, I want you to know this is the most amazing journey I've ever been on," she says. He tells her that every time she looks at him "with those eyes," she's amazing, "absolutely stunning and amazing." He says he doesn't know how he could ever let her go. And she knows. You can tell she knows. "But I have to," he says. That's it, Jason. Let your voice break as you tell her you wish you had some good reasons, other than that you're in love with someone else. But aren't you also in love with her? "So sorry," he says. Puss. She shakes her head slightly and says she doesn't understand. "I think you've made a mistake. A big one." He tells her he'll walk her out. She glares at the camera.
"I just don't get it," she whispers to him, and as they get back to the house, she tells him he's making a mistake, and that he's going to get hurt again, because Melissa's going to wake up and realize this wasn't the life she wanted. "All I can say is I think you're wrong," he says. "I hope I am," she says, because he deserves someone really great.
He walks her through the house, back to the limo, weirdly STARING at her the whole time. "Everything was real," he says. Listen, asshole: don't try to make sure that she still likes you. You're dumping her. Let her hate you a little. Don't try to keep her thinking that you're a nice, sensitive guy.
She gets in the limousine, and Jason makes his sad face. She wipes tears from her eyes (real tears, not "see how sensitive I am" Jason tears). And then there's the annoying shot of him looking anguished on the balcony (the one that this show tried to make us think was a result of DeAnna's visit), and now he is fake-crying. That's it, Jason. Put on a good show. I mean, aren't you now in love with someone else? Fortunately, the cameras were well-placed off the balcony to capture you and your phony-baloney reaction.
In the limousine, Molly says she's shocked. She thought she was going to pick up her life and move to Seattle and be a stepmom. "Apparently Jason was not in love with me." No, he was! You should see all his interviews! She repeats that she thinks he's making a mistake and is going to get hurt.
