I know , right ? We must feel empathetic toward Andi. The home-girl must have finally realized she couldn't resist Marcus in FS...can't blame her though.. #toohawttoresist  :P

Can we rule out Marcus ?
No : Not really. He seems to have fallen into a gaping abyss. No news or clues to his exit or the reasons for his exit. There cannot rule him out 100%.
Yes : The evidence for the spoiler seems to be building up from post show activities. It will take a while more to gather this evidence so there is time still to gather more. Right now most of it is circumstantial.

I'm not sure where Marcus will be in the "order" however I'm curious about what appears to be a sceptic/chemistry combo edit. Well, he appears to be this combination at this very early stage in the season. Are there examples of this combo from previous seasons? Brooks perhaps? (I've only seen parts of her season).

Des' season did not start off this strongly. Zac and Drew got quite a bit of time with their pre-RC roses. Neither Chris nor Brooks had much time devoted in ep1. There was a setup for Brooks in ep1 when the VO line "going down in flames" was said over him (but meant for another guy altogether). I wasn't too much of a Brooks fan so don't even remember the slant but I don't think there was any red flags going up for Des even during the HTD she didn't seem to clue in that he had pulled away. Which she should have. It seemed like her mind set and PIs were all full steam ahead as far as brooks was concerned.
Andi in contrast has clearly noted how Hot hot hot Marcus is. Ok hot hot hot hot hot. But she also owned that he was not what she thought of (doesn't tell us what she thought though and where she got her first impression from) and that he intrigues her. So seems like she is on a fact finding mission with him (well not just him).

The big difference in her just saying he is hot is the way she reacts to him. Talking slow and sexy, touching her hair, reaching out to take his hands when he attempted to put them in his pocket, getting that  :shocked!: when he stepped from the limo etc etc. All that is clearly not just edited but is actual/real. Yes the edit did add those PIs (Saying he is hot and that she is intrigued) but leaving that part out you can still tell she is way attracted to him.

Now to figure out why they added that stuff in there. And how it ties into his exit.

Tptb always show what's most interesting. Andi reacting to this hottie is interesting so they showed it. It's not that weird to me that they would show the very very most exciting interactions, no matter who they're with. That said, if her attraction to f4 Marcus becomes too played up, then it's another Frank, Brooks, or Graham situation, or even Bentley but without a JP

Yes - one of those. IMO Graham the most.

I think there is a possibility of him wanting to leave or wanting her to not choose him. We might see a 1-sided attraction. OR he might be the initial sceptic who transforms over time. I just though some voice-overs suggested uncertainty on his part or about him. Still, too little info at this point.

Yay! His thread is back! LOL

A couple of avi's if anyone wants...

We have not yet seen signs in the edit that he is is either reluctant nor hesitant. He does seem to move at a slower pace than say Josh who would likely to drop down and propose to Andi immediately.
But watching him last night (ep2) you could see that he wanted to fully participate despite being uncomfortable - for her and that he chose to keep her as his focus while doing so. She noticed this as well. With Marcus its the little things that add up.
Back to the original point, his edit has still to take an upswing prior to any downswing. Its early days yet.
BTW I posted this in his fan thread, CH seems to be of the opinion that Marcus was one of the guys genuinely there for Andi and it takes a lot for CH to pick him as an example.
That tells me he is neither reluctant nor hesitant.
Will add - YET as we don't know what the downswing is if any. More likely it is Andi.

These are fantastic! Great cropping and coloring!    I will for sure be snagging one. Don't know which one yet.

Go for the first one. Those eyes.
