"Bachelor Pad host Chris Harrison has described Ames Brown&amp;#039;s gesture of love at the end of this week&amp;#039;s episode as a &amp;quot;storybook moment&amp;quot;.  Ames chose to follow his heart and walk away from the $250,000 prize when Jackie Gordon was eliminated at the second rose ceremony. He chased her limo down the mansion&amp;#039;s driveway as the rest of the contestants cheered him on.  Speaking to TV Guide.com, host Harrison called the exit &amp;quot;one of the greatest moves in Bachelor History&amp;quot;, saying: &amp;quot;Ames showed that, &amp;#039;I don&amp;#039;t need this, it&amp;#039;s not going to change my life that much, but leaving here with my dignity and with my love is more important&amp;#039;.  &amp;quot;It was a storybook moment only Ames [could do]. It was a beautiful moment and funny to see the cast applauding.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Read Digital Spy&amp;#039;s full recap of this week&amp;#039;s episode Harrison also addressed the gesture of love in his Entertainment Weekly blog, saying it was a &amp;quot;move and an exit that only Ames could pull&amp;quot;.  He wrote: &amp;quot;When Jackie got voted out I felt bad for them because I really wanted them to spend more time together and see where this relationship could take them. Then Ames pulled a move and an exit that only Ames could pull. In a grand gesture of love and commitment Ames left the game and left the money and chased down Jackie in the limo to give love a chance.&amp;quot;  Ames and Jackie have since ended their relationship, although told reporters in their elimination conference call this week that they remain friends.  &amp;quot;We had a great time on the show and chose love over money in the competition and so on,&amp;quot; said Ames. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re not still dating but we enjoyed every moment we had together... It was wonderful while it lasted.&amp;quot; This week&amp;#039;s episode of Bachelor Pad also saw the departure of swimsuit model Gia Allemand, who chose to walk away from the show after discovering close friend Graham Bunn had revealed her strategy plans to Kasey Kahl.
