We could also add the rowboat clip too. (I do wonder if a gay bachelor would be this "intense" with so many contestants.)

I will say this much for Andi, Litta123. They are at least shot up close and in-the-faces under the waterfall. So... if Camilla repeats Daddy's actions, at least she will make sure a cameraman is there watching to make sure she doesn't slip, since her boyfriend might not have a firm-enough grip on her bottom. I was still worried that Juan and Clare might drown since they were too far off for Elan Gale to jump in after them, should the tide come in.

Here's the thing that bothers me in terms of our analysis if Clare is not F1. We more or less have been able to figure out this entire season from the previews. Why would TPTB give us ALL that and then give us nothing to work with if Nikki (or Andi) is F1? It's not making sense to me. nd, I recall you saying early in our sleuthing that the previews usually contain the F1 in some way at the final location and usually as a small undiscernable image.

IF that is more or less true for the preview, then Andi is out. By the same thinking, Nikki is out. Yes, we have her in St. Lucia, but her cap is huge on the horse...not hidden at all. So, either the premise that the story is told in the preview is wrong or Clare is F1. This is the reason I can't strike Clare off my F1 list yet.

Obviously, there is a lot of doubt about Clare from this last episode, but is the doubt being caused by the editing or is it really an unrepairable situation? These are things I can't resolve yet. On paper, Nikki has always represented the "perfect fit" of being both lover and mother. Maybe there is a real connection there with Juan, but my gut says Juan is more into Nikki than Nikki into him. Maybe my feelings will change as the show progresses.

If this were a class and I was asked to write an essay to pick an F1 and then defend my position, I would pick Clare. I still feel I can make the strongest argument for her...regardless of my personal feelings about whether she is the best choice for Juan.

I don't think there's a whole lot of suspense left for the F1 and we can't decide between Andi and Nikki until they give us some more screen caps. That's my theory on why there aren't many posters. That and it's not a very good season (IMO).

So by your post, you are assuming that Clare isn't F1?  I didn't know that had been sleuthed out to be eliminated.

Not grace and she will answer way better but if you mean but sleuthed via SCs then NO we have not eliminated Clare being F1 based on SCs. If you mean any other methods of elimination then yes many here feel that Clare is not F1 (I believe that grace feels this way but she can cmiiw). There are a many that still have doubts and one here that is 100% sure it is Clare. I for one cannot make a call yet but am doubtful it is Clare particularly after the aftermath of ep5. I had my doubts before also.

Grace - I really only meant to type up line 1 but please correct my other assumptions.

Ok, I just remember so many saying/thinking the same thing after the Ben/Courtney thing, but we all know how that turned out.  To me, the way the producers threw Ben under the bus is reminiscent of how they are doing it with JP

ETA: There was a cameraman in the bubble with JP and Nikki? Or do they just attach a camera in there. That seems a little tight to be making out with a cameraman there.
