Plus his head band is on his arm by his elbow.

The blood would not soak in such an even pattern onto the cloth without having any of it on the white gauze or still on his hand. If he were bleeding that profusely, I suspect he'd have something covering his finger not just holding a cloth. JMHO as someone who works with ED staff.

ATEM, this is one thing we agree about. LOL and I'm in the business of blood.....bwahhhha. It is the right color for blood-soaked gauze. The headband would be more the color of the wristband. If it was a headband, the EMT's or the hospital would have taken it off immediately and put on sterile gauze. Grungy headband .......not so germ-free.

I just can't look at it long enough without my lunch threatning to come back up.

Not sure how either Brooks or Des can be "at peace". Whether they are madly in love or not, they are in the beginnings of a negative media field day and they know that. And it won't be over on Monday night -- like I said, the beginnings! It will be ugly for them. Even together, there is no peace.

I feel the same way. I tried to get excited about the other 2 prospects but I can't. I'll always look at either of them as the default.

Just speaking for myself, but I'm going to watch the finale before I make judgment on how this ends. Either Brooks comes back and convinces her that he truly loves her and she is the love of his life or she walks away alone. In my eyes, choosing someone else at this point, would leave a more negative field day, because I don't see anyway possible that she could have that kind of turn-around in such a short time period.

If Des is convinced by Brooks and is happy, that's all that should matter. It doesn't affect our lives one bit.

That's for them to deal with. Two is better than one says the proverb. I think they know it won't be easy. What happened, happened. Nothing can change that. Would be interesting who contributes or wishes for their downfall. Wonder how many of those have told their friends/family in their own personal circumstance, The heart wants what the heart wants. They will have a probable firestorm to deal with but so would it be if it was felt that Des just settled for her second best because her first choice backed out. They will use all she said in the last episode against her too. Even if some think Chris is right for her. Chris will start to feel like a default because the headline will be about Des declaring love for only one. Brooks. So either way. Des chose to deal with it with the one she truly fell for and if he has that change of heart, they will at least be united.

We really need to see how it all plays out during the finale, and how everyone responds to questions, etc. at the ATFR. I'm excited to watch, and I'll be leaning forward to see how CH reacts with everyone at the ATFR.

Sometimes, a couple pulls together in an "us vs. them" approach. If it's a Bres ending, it really is up to them to make this relationship work. Melissa Rycroft and several other contestants on this show had the same experience happen to them with guys in their lives. When they lost the girl, it woke the guy up to their true feelings. I'll say that Monday night is critical when it comes to the public's perception of the relationship. That being said, there are always supporters and detractors of the couple. Jash had them and only turned the tide by making it work.

Like I said, it looks like either way, Brooks is going to get smack. Either for not coming back or for coming back.
