Plus, he’s a seasoned pro. I couldn’t resist asking him how Desiree Hartsock is doing, you know, in case Chris does end up winning and is also terrible at keeping secrets. “She was really nice...  on the show,” he hedged in response.

.  

Huh?  Really nice?  

Okay, so we know its not Chris, but we were pretty sure of that already.  Now why couldn't they ask Drew or Brooks that question?!?

That's just it.  Nothing indicates it is any different in the episode description.  It pisses me the heck off that all these articles are skipping the FD issue and we have to wait until Tue for an answer.

How can they put something about the FD when there clearly wasn't one ? They will certainly not print the hook of this episode otherwise why would people watch.
We sleuthed this stuff ages ago - Brooks leaves prior to his FD.
In the old days (FORT) the sleuths would hammer certain truths - the SCs don't lie. Apparently this time - the lack of SCs don't lie. Nice and tidy.

'The Bachelorette' host Chris Harrison: You may not fully understand the hometowns until the finale

By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 07/17/2013 

The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison says viewers may not see the clear picture of what happened during this week's broadcast of Desiree Hartsock's hometown dates with her final four suitors until the season concludes.

"This was a very interesting and pivotal episode in many ways, and with all that was going on there were some things you may not even understand until you see the dramatic two-episode finale of this season," Harrison wrote in his Entertainment Weekly blog.

Regardless of the drama to come, Harrison told TV Guide in an interview that The Bachelorette star has "four incredible guys" left. However, the host finds it funny yet predictable Hartsock sincerely fell in love with Brooks Forester, the one guy who still seems somewhat closed off.

"The one who isn't giving it up emotionally, isn't telling her everything she wants to hear, is the guy she's the most into," Harrison explained. "You'd think we'd learn from our mistakes, but it's really such a cliche. He's not the bad guy by any means and he's very much into Des for sure, but it's funny that there are three guys just throwing themselves at her and she is just trying to figure out Brooks."

Despite Forester's apparent hesitation to throw out the words, "I love you," Harrison insisted all four suitors were ready to pop the question after their hometown dates.

"I said to Des, 'If you stop this right now, there's a good chance all the guys would propose,' and that's crazy... Any of these guys would make great husbands and great fathers. She's done a great job narrowing it down, but now it's about the life she wants," Harrison told TV Guide, explaining why Hartsock probably sent Waddell home.

"It was almost as if Zak was the odd guy out, and when the music stopped we had to take one chair away. He had a great hometown and Des really enjoyed it and saw him for who he is. I don't think he'll have any problems getting a date."

Waddell's personality was almost the opposite of Kenney's, but Hartsock obviously chose to keep Kenney around.

"Drew's life might be very attractive to some. He's a very serious man, settled into who he is and what he wants. He's just not the crazy, happy-go-lucky guy who's going to bring the snow cone truck to school," Harrison said.

Awww, Drew is out :(. They want Zak as the Bachelor.

It really has never seemed to me Drew was up for lead.  They could have highlighted him so differently to be front and centre but he never has been.  I also really think he is a little too reserved, genuine, sweet and young to be the Bachelor, although he will make a great catch for someone.

I would love Zak and there are signs I think he's being considered.  CH has always talked him up in blogs etc.  I just doubt they would ever pick a guy I like for Bachelor, so doubt it will happen in the end.

He's a very serious man, settled into who he is and what he wants.

Zak would be walking around half naked at every opportunity and I can just imagine the dates. Not looking forward to it. :(
