Who do you guys think made the desperate move, and talked to Sean last minute?

since it says one bachelorette has a hearbreaking ending which we know is Desiree I think the desperate move is from either Catherine or Lindsay

Or it's Dez trying to make amends the joke gone wrong

^ Hmm.. really? I thought it's Ashlee....

I was thinking Ashlee to. Won't that set her up to leave the following week?

I mentioned this in another thread earlier, but am still puzzled by it. There is no mention or sight of Des' parents in the preview or now in the press release. With the day activity, her brother and the prank there doesn't seem time. If she opted to leave them out of the hometown visit I would think that would be a deal breaker for Sean and possibly her way of opting out. That could explain her exit at F4. I was thinking her tears last episode maybe were due to a reluctance to involve her parents with this show.

Or her parents refused to participate

I don't know if her parents were there or not, but someone else, other than the brother was. You can see a partial blue sleeve beside the brother at the dining table, sean and Des are on the other side of the table.

We see Des' brother making negative comments while talking to the camera alone, that would mean his "act' is not a part of the prank, right?

I love the new banner .. Funny thing that Catherine is the only one facing forward .. Full head on .. With that GORGOUS smile .. The others are all covered up LOL

WAs that on purpose ?? Hahaha

Just as I had hoped to see Catherine get the rose this week (and she did not), I sure hope that it's not Catherine who pulls a desperate move to stay. It would just be one more thing for casual viewers (and not so casual viewers) to question how on earth Sean could go from iffy to engaged. I hope that Sean and Catherine's time together ends on a beyond positive, over the moon high.

Yup, call me a gushing fool.

But my one concern is that Catherine's sisters really seem to give Sean a verbal workout so that does make her a candidate. I just don't see Lindsay feeling the need to act desperate - she has been seeming pretty confident.

And I am not sure there was a whole lot of conflict on Ashlee's date other than yet another conversation about her abandonment issues. It is sad and also triumphant that Ashlee has been able to get past those days but Fleiss never seems to get that bit about overkill. Ashlee's story is turning out to be a whole lot like us hearing over and over during Brad 2.0 about Emily's fiancee's tragic death. I have to imagine that both ladies were hoping their other fine qualities were given fair share of airtime as well.
