Episode 6 - 6/27 - Discussion - Spoilers

But just thinking back now about Fleiss's tweet when they shot the finale.. "Just shot the finale. OMG!" and Fijiman saying that she had "no choice than to go with JP" it just makes me think that Ben leaves at F2.. hence the crying, etc.

Ryan comes back just before JP's Fantasy Date. She starts getting strange feelings in regards to Ryan... does she dump him right away or does she think about it first? How long is Ryan there?

JP gets upset when she tells him... he took Bentley well, but I have noticed the "tension" building up in the editing between the two.

No clue what happens here...

fleissmeister tweets...

May 1 - Some freaky stuff has happened to Ashley H. She's hanging in there, tho.
May 1 - Ashley is fine...Still on her journey toward love.

Any suggestions?

Update 5/25: Ryan Park returns in Fiji to, I assume, tell Ashley to re-consider. He is sent home again and absolutely is not part of the final rose ceremony.

OK... so this is between Fantasy Date and FRC? That would certainly make it even more dramatic.

Wow. Just getting logged on after watching the show. This season is such a bust. Whoever the F1 is (or was) knows now that they only got chosen because The Bent One dumped his lady love in Hong Kong. Truly lame.

That's what I am thinking right now too... Not that I think JP is default F1, because he most certainly is not, but a girl can only take so much rejection before you start wondering if the man you really want to be with is going to reject you too.

Right how can I forget the hot mess Jillian was after Reid appeared and she took forever to decide what to do.

I have a far out idea. Constantine bows out at F3, after the FD..he's not feeling it and wants to go home. Then she has Ben and JP's FD's, but Ryan comes back to confuse her. "go with my head or my heart". So she sends Ryan home. She's a mess, F3 left and she hurt Ryan and he left. I think she really liked Ryan, as more of a friend and good guy to her.

Then at the FRC, Ben takes himself out, so that's 3 guys are gone, two by their own hand and one by a confused Ashley. So it's "unfair" and she's crying...but all this happens before the FRC with JP, who was always the F1 anyway, so all the other smoke blowing up our butts was to create all the drama and then the happy proposal, twirl, I love you, and cut! Done. good ending. That's all we care about anyway. Well, I hope that's how it goes down.

That HAS to be Ryan.

I am wondering if SHE brings him back like Bentley for "closure" and JP has trouble with it. The lovey dovey couple have their first fight and that casts DOUBT about JP proposing to her...

We don't know which bachelor has his hand in the pocket... if JP, then that adds SUSPENSE...

Bottom line: Ben is Find Waldo through all this, unless he's Mister Hand-in-pocket. If he is a surprise Final One, he is a Big Surprise.

It all tastes like: First half of season is Bentley versus JP. JP handles her news of Bentley well. Then it is Ryan versus JP. There is trouble on the Fantasy Date... because he loses PATIENCE. She starts getting all of those La De Da "insecurities" back...

I can definitely see this. I just can't see Ben as any type of competition to JP. He's nice and sweet and they unveil their doggies voices to each other but what they have doesn't even begin to touch what she has with JP.

She is going to be VERY upset letting Ben go... it is NOT going to go well. They showed him actually "falling" in tonight's episode and slowly coming out of his shell.

This will be one Reality Steve blog I'll be eagerly reading tomorrow... He will have PLENTY to say about that montage. (Just hope he doesn't waste too much space discussing the recycled Ames clip... we all know he doesn't make Fantasy Dates.)

Actually I thought that Ashley was the one doing the dumping. She played him nicely getting him to relax and giving him a chance to come clean by pretending she didn't know what he'd said and he didn't even give her the courtesy of that. I still think TPTB showed her his PI's and VOs when he left. JMO.

Analyze suit fabrics you all this is getting interesting.

I agree I made this point up thread. Something looks odd, colors are different?

Bentley put the period on the conversation. Ashley was still hung up on the dot dot dot. Listen again.

I like this....I think this works and makes sense
