The ongoing train wreck that is The Bachelor keeps upping the ante as the season wears on. The show took competition to a new level on Monday night, as the remaining 11 women were all flown to Puerto Rico where they competed with each other in a baseball game for the chance to party with the highly coveted bachelor, Ben Flajnik, on the beach that night.

For some young female contestants, however, a group date just didn't cut it. The scheming Courtney, whom everyone loves to hate, didn't want to be upstaged by the other victors on her baseball team — Kacie B., Casey S., and Jamie — so she got down to business and stole Flajnik away from the other ladies to have a private skinny dip in the ocean with him.

All in a day's work. First the bachelor got caught in the rain during his one-on-one date with Nicki, who impressed him by laughing and having fun in the deluge, rather than getting upset and uptight about running makeup and soaking shoes. The lucky lady walked away from the date, rose in hand. Elyse, who had the luxury of being chosen for the next date, had no such luck, as her yachting day trip with Flajnik turned out to be a dud.

At the end of the day, with one girl down and Courtney back on top, contestant Jennifer was the sad girl left without a rose at the final ceremony. She and Flajnik said goodbye before she climbed into the SUV to go home. "The time we had tonight, I thought it went well, but I don't know," she said as she was driven away from her high hopes to score the bachelor. "I just wonder what I did wrong."
