According to RS he only got the 1 1-on-1 date. I'm hoping he is wrong but if not I am looking forward to at least seeing some 1-on-1 time on group dates and cocktail parties.

Yea, something about that doesn't seem right though...never before has someone received a date that early not get another one when they are in the F4. Something just seems off.

Yeah... BUT... remember what I told you before with his discussion with Eric? There is the possibility that they were told by a handler they may just have one date and use their time wisely. Something feels set up this season.

Ya Think?    Something seems really screwy this season also.

Chris did get the group date rose in Italy. Maybe Andi thought she knew him well enough  and didn't need a second date with him, On the other hand the jury is still out about who got the second 1-om-1 date in Belgium. We need to be patient.

I believe Sean only had one 1on1 with Emily, He was F-3 and the next bachelor. So its not a new concept that someone in the F-4 doesn't have two 1 on 1's.

The big difference for me is that Sean's 1:1 was episode 5, so really it was between him and Jef who would get the second 1:1 by time line.

Chris's first 1:1 in episode 2 and then others who had their first 1:1 after him (in Josh's case much later than him) is weird. If that makes any sense.

Cat only had one 1:1 but her's was episode 6.

I see your point but like Sean, Chris did get the last group date rose to make him viable as someone who she wanted to know. IMO though producer driven.

We have yet to see if Chris "sneaks out" as Sean did to grab some extra time with Andi. I think we often think that f4 is really higher in the pecking order, but not taken to FDs for whatever reason. So often f3 is really more in the friend zone- or is going to be in the friend zone.

Truth is, Andi maybe would really be fine with only 2 past Belgium, even, but has to keep 4 for production purposes.

Of course, if spoilers aren't true then we could have the "dark horse" making a great stretch run (he did have the horse race date, after all).

Exactly - I don't want to be a broken record because when the spoilers first came out I posted a few times that this just doesn't make sense. Someone like Sean or Andi who became lead only had one date because it was late - but both got other 'special' time pre HTD to make up for it and keep them in the viewers eyes and minds. For Chris to get a date ep 2, then so far no other screen time with Andi, he's going to have to get some leading into HTD somehow if he's the potential next Bachelor. I expect to see his story ramp up this week as Nick gets involved in drama and Marcus starts to come on too strong. Chris' edit could take a turn for him being the reliable, mature guy who ends up going far. If it doesn't turn soon, I'll really be confused about the potential of him being F3 and next lead    Just bad storytelling, IMO.

Plus I just want to see more of him. Come on, show.

^^ Agreed. His edit has my head in a knot especially with the voice overs etc. I am wondering if all the "easter eggs" for him were because he was the best pick for Andi and TPTB is trying to show that even though she potentially doesn't pick him who knowss.
