Hannah Brown, Bachelorette, is the undoubted winner ofThe Bachelorette.
She roundly refused to find Luke Parkers stalker-y obsession with the state of her Christian soul to be romantic.
Hannahs dominance went beyond just her interactions with those men, though.
There was the I had sex and Jesus still loves me!
But Hannahs more impressive, more unusual choices were the subtler ones.
I just want to say, BachelorNation, I am sorry, she told viewers.
Im sorry for Luke … being on our television screens for so long.
A lot his, but I did it.
Not the producers, not Chris Harrison, not unnamed and unseen editors, butherself.
The same thing happened during last nights finale.
I hope Ill be able to do that.
It left Chris Harrison with little left to say except thank you.
But Hannah was in control.
When Hannah did finally agree to ask Tyler out for a drink, the studio audience exploded with glee.
She was maybe going to date him!
There might be a happy romantic ending after all!
But even that concession to fairy-tale romance was measured and small scale.
Tyler, to his credit, didnt ask that of her.
She was willing to go with Tyler for a drink.
To spend some time together as normal people.
It was a choice made on her own terms.
Hannah Brown won her own season ofThe Bachelorette.
It would be a surprising, unexpected, late-in-the-game reveal, something theBacheloraudience could really root for.
It would be a classic and unexpectedly satisfyingBachelor-style twist.
