Alexxx-- Or is BenF the biggest stealth F1 the franchise has ever seen?--This reminds me of something I've thought all season so far!!

Ben F. reminds me of "the phantom" (Chris N.) only with longer hair!! Does he anyone else?!?!

ETA-- I've tried posting the pics but can't figure out how!!

kinda sorta, only because we haven't seen much of Ben like we saw very little of Chris. I do expect that to change, which it never did for Chris.

Well, that's one thing we could all agree on!!

Was she comfy enough with JP to fall asleep in his arms because she cares for him and has already built a level of trust?
Or did she fall asleep in his arms because she was emotionally drained from the Bentley fiasco that morning, and she would have passed out regardless of who her date was that night?

Great question. Brad (first season) fell asleep on his date with Bettina and we know how that ended up.

Was the connection with JP immediate from the first night and all the Bentley (and eventual Ryan) drama just to distract from an epi 1 to finale straight love story?
Or was all the Bentley/eventual Ryan drama intended to distract from the fact that there was no love story?

Where are Ames/Constantine/BenF? It appears they all might as well have stayed home until epi 4 when they're finally going to get some screen time.
Are they all non-factors in the story this season?
Or is BenF the biggest stealth F1 the franchise has ever seen?

Did Ashley really fall in love with anyone?
Or did Ashley fall in love with everyone? With William halfway through their date, with Bentley from hello, with all of her F4? With her F1 enough to distinguish him from the crowd?

Is RS right again? Or did he get Fleissed again?
What about Love's source? What did he really see?

These are all things that I don't know. Honestly, right now this feels like another hastily thrown-together season with a lot of manufactured drama to distract from a weak lead and an even weaker "connection".

The only thing I know for sure is that in hind-sight everything will be crystal clear.

Absolutely brilliant!!!

I agree with you Anders ~ Alexxxx's post was brilliant! So many good points, and food for thought.
After Monday's episode, I was left wondering how in the world viewers are supposed to *believe* that
Ashley actually fell in love with someone other than Bentley at the end of all of this. The way it was
edited, viewers were led to believe that Ashley's heart belonged to Bentley ~ and the moment he left..
so did her heart! CH interviews stressing that production almost stopped, only contributes to that belief.
The remaining bachelors are left looking like second bananas!

I suppose there is another reason she fell asleep during their date – he was more boring than unbuttered white toast.

I never knew Brad fell asleep during his date with Bettina – which date was that??

But the difference is, the edited show upto episode 3 showed 1 on 1 conversations with Ali and Chris L in every episode. Though Ali no 1 on 1 date with Chris they still left in his conversations with her.

Now Ben F has had just a 1 on 1 conversion from the 1st episode shown. Nothing else has been shown in the edited version that they are giving us. We have SC evidence that yes in fact they did have a conversation after the Roasting Group date. But it wasn't shown.
Thats whats so weird about this season's edit.

They never showed his falling asleep, but he did in the car with Bettina because he was worn out from production. Didn't their date entail a romantic boat ride and wine/cheese picnic? I cannot remember. It was at night I believe.

I was wondering if it was the gondola/picnic date - I guess it could've been the FD, that's why I asked.

Yes, the gondola date ~ not the fantasy date.

For some reason I recall hearing Ashley saying "starting all over", which I think essentially she does. And "unexpectedly" she does find a guy, and it wont be JP, who tickles her fancy.

So think about episode 4 as the first epi after the m and g and that epi 2 and 3 where just getting the junk out of the way.

Starting over starts Monday
