One more note - if it is indeed CH at his door AFTER the pier (per the messy hair), then Des doesn't send him home, and Brooks doesn't officially opt out at the pier. CH wouldn't be doing an interview with Brooks after she sent him home or after Brooks self-eliminated.

Guessing one of them asks for more time/proposes Brooks takes more time to think everything over.

yep, it takes place at St. James Club.

My 2 cents:
Brooks asks to talk to CH prior to his FD. Knock on door--talk with CH--talk with Des at Verandah--limo. Exit.

So could the new promo be the shocker ? Instead of CH officiating a marriage, he offers couples counseling ? We hear Brooks say in a VO before, everything in my head says I'm I'm love with Des. So whatever brings Brooks to back off, CH helps Brooks sort things out.
He tells Brooks if you want Des you have to fight for her. Or something like that.

The Shocker could be never before did CH do this. He brings Brooks back into the game . Would the guys be happy about that? Would Des? Sounds plausible right?

It could be after.

Perhaps that is his final answer and he goes off in a limo.

Well, the promos is: "he loves her" "he loves her not" so I'm guessing he has to say he loves her at some point.

It's got to be before Brooks goes to see Des. He doesn't look ready when he answers the door and I can't imagine CH would come in after the fact. We probably don't see Brooks after the limo scene.

I agree with this.

I have been saying that there is a 2 parter to Brooks story BECAUSE of the limo. There is no way they would have arranged a limo to drive him away from the verandah on such short notice - he was going for a date after all.
Realistically, they would not have expected a minor fall out at the pier (note I said realistically before any one tells me its "producer manipulation").

After the pier as you said could come the knock on the door, the talk with CH, possibly another talk with Des and then limo ride.

Brooks was going on his date to see Des in the first place. so he would have been ready and they met up at the Verandah as planned.

The knock on his door was not planned IMO.

And yes CH would have stepped in after the fact to find out where his head is at if they didn't call it quits at the pier.

Want mine ?

Brooks meets Des at Pier, talk spirals downwards, Brooks goes back to his apt, Des is upset, CH steps in - knock on the door, CH talk to Brooks, Des talks to Brooks and puts him in the limo. Exit.

That works, too. Either way works for me.

But why would CH talk to Brooks after he's already seen Des? It doesn't make sense to me. I can't imagine they didn't know going in that he was having doubts. After he talks to CH they know to have the limo waiting. Brooks seems set on what he's going to say from the time he greets Des. You can see it on his face. They greet, talk on the pier where he tells her whatever it is he tells her, he walks with her off the pier, and then we see them one more time standing which is likely right before he gets into the limo.  Unless I'm forgetting something everything is accounted for except Brooks walking around his resort upset. That may be after he talks to CH but before he goes to see Des.

So, now am I leaning towards he doesn't want to propose, can't say he is fully in love with her, tells her this at the Verandah when they are supposed to have their FD (WAY TO RUIN THE FD BROOKS) which upsets Des, and then he leaves, freaks out (pacing, tears) goes back to St. James (in a limo or not) has a sit down with CH.
