Closing the set will prevent any leaks what so ever during the first 2 hours .. so that the AFTR .. Part 2 of the live show will still be an unknown entity

I don't understand...Why would there be an audience for part 1 if its airing on Monday? I would imagine part 2 would be show on Aug 5th like any other finale where they show it and then go right into the live ATFR. There is no need for their to be a closed set unless there is something else going on. They only did that last with Jason.

maybe it is that the audience watches part 2 of the finale (the FRC) and since it is a surprise ending they have a closed set so no leaks go out about the ending. jeepers, is that what you are saying? maybe jeepers is referring to aug. 5th as happening in 2 parts, the FRC & the AFTR, rather than the 2-part finale that tptb are referring to as happening on both july 29th & aug 5th.

The live ATFR audience will watch the final episode at the same time the East Coast is watching and they interact with the audience though it. So no leaks to stop.

Maybe a wedding?? :shocked!:  Just kidding!! (sort of)

I think it's weird that they are having an audience for the final episode but not one for the show immediately following it.  Guess CH will move from one set to the other.

Could it be there is no proposal in Antigua and Brooks finally proposes at the ATFR?  But if that's the case, they would have been smarter to have done the ATFR a night or week later to pull in another round of huge ratings.

My take is they may "tape something to show per taped with the f2/3... And it's will be just DES and her F1..I think we will need to watch for the key players and their movements..
Now weird and shocking could be she does takes Brooks back ( she they probably won't show him in the previews) and he does propose. To the main stream audience that would be shocking..even worse if the did a live wedding..now younknow Fleiss wants that ending..

This seems plausible and they already taped something with Chris. I was wondering if it was because he was not going to be at the ATFR and it was just a segment to show that he's doing well in Seattle.

  xgsmom!
I'm not sure I understand the bolded from Momma...
But are you referring to the tv filming that someone heard about in Seattle this week?  Did we ever get confirmation that they were actually filming Chris?  If so, it seems plausible that only Brooks and Des will be on the ATFR and they will show tape of Chris happy in Seattle.

Welcome xgsmom..
And luv no we really didn't..just some twitter saying they were taping..and a picture was post by a fan say Élan took the picture..

What I mean by pre taping DES with the f2/3 means they will be doing BEFORE aug 5 th show..so We need to "watch" for activity for filming..Let's say DES and her F1 won't be in LA on Aug 5th? I think they would have to tape her talk with the F2/3..

I just get this feeling that DES and her guy will NOT be in LA on Aug 5 th..

They already have a gigantic leak and that F1 was spoiled from day 1 after the FRC. Everyone has been inadvertantly spoiled by even clicking on an article or reading her instagram where people have left comments about her ending up with Broooks.

So what exactly is the big deal ? The season has been leaked so who are they trying to fool ?

Anyone ?

Or....could be that it wasn't Brooks, and the concept was still too painful to hear about?!?!? Not trying to stir up trouble. I'm a Des follower, and think that all three of the men are fine...unless Brooks leaves, comes back, and then they get engaged!!

I don't remember. I haven't the foggiest idea of what they mean a closed set and live set. How can the finale be live when it has already been filmed ? This terminology is whacko !
But Jasons stuff leaked as well - that was RS's first spoiler in fact.
