Absolutely, and that's why even when we get caps, no matter when we get them (or don't get them) they are meant to make us believe one thing when the actuality could be the completely opposite.

NO :shocked!: They would never do that to us, would they?!

Well, what haven't they done in the FRC? We've had the lead chose nobody; we've had the standard 2 show up 1rejected and final one; we've had just final 1; we've had a 3rd guy show up to plead his case but not propose. Can't think of any more that we've had. So, what we haven't had is nobody show up, final 3 all propose, wedding (really hope not), anything else.

If tptb are trying for something different (which may explain the weird edits, lack of sc's, early interviews, all the tweets and very few actual leaks) then of the ones we haven't seen could it be all 3 propose or something else?

My guess would be 3 proposals, if it is different.
I don't think she takes back someone who returns.

That is certainly something that hasn't happened before. Ed was different because his was NOT during the FRC.

Reid did propose.

is there any indication that something new happens at the FRC??

even a rejected proposal has happened. Jen/Jerry.

Crass as it sounds, from what I'm seeing..the show is being literally edited as a "neck and neck horse race" where the F1 changes among the final 3 throughout the race (or season). It's the analogy that MF and others have used to describe this season and I wonder if, for once, that's not hyperbole but what is actually happened. If she found herself confused or changed her mind from city to city for a while (heart, head, hormones). I think that is what viewers are seeing, too. For example, the USA Today episode polls, that show one week viewers think that Ari is best for Emily and this week it was Sean and you all see the other guys positions go up or down.

It would be a new twist on things - that they're actually telling the truth but none of us believe them because of all the past situations where they made us believe it was a contest between a couple of options when really it wasn't.

I thought Jillian stopped Reid before he could actually propose but my memory sucks (lucky to remember what I had for breakfast).

No real indication - just thought that it seems to be a weird season so maybe tptb are trying to change things up. Something in the Fleiss interview made me think he wanted something different - can't pinpoint it as it was just a general, overall feeling I got from reading it.

Very good point...I hope Jef is confident enough in the end that Emily doesn't have to continually reaffirm that he was 'always' the one. She sure is diggin all the guys lips!

Has it been suggested that maye Emily couldn't make a decision of who to cut at F3 RC and said she needed more time and because MF has always wanted 3 guys to propose they agrees but only under the condition that she choose at the FRC? Maybe that's why Arie stayed that extra time... Maybe he wasn't cut but production viewed him at F3? It would explain Sean and Arie going home on the same day and Arie's part in Frc
.

Thought I'd throw it out there

I guess we'll see Jef make up ground during the homestretch. Maybe he will take some of the responsibility since he was a tad slow out of the gate.
