And I don't approve of her couponing to extremes, so pooey on you, Christine!! haha

She was wearing the blue (tie dye) shirt when she was talking to her sister and called her a B. I don't remember who she was talking to when on the couch in beige.

But in the beige she said, "We came in and you said he's not for you" or something similar. What if the sister didn't like EITHER of the guys? 2 different outfits, 2 different days?

I think the pieces are STARTING to fall into place.

Ash's family can't accept an inter-faith marriage.

Mickey's date in episode #2 brought up how sensitive she is about criticism.

She tolds Ames in episode #4 that she wanted her children to have a less resticted life... whatever that meant. I have to go back to Phuket and Ames later. Lots of clues there.

Reality Steve suggesting a religious "problem" with Constantine... yet no mention of it on hometown. He, of course, is the one who cuts the Fantasy Date... not Jordan. The previews are fibbing there.

This is why we got the Jewish reference in episode #5. His defeat of Catholic Mickey in the boxing match was foreshadowing.

Mickey left her in Hong Kong on account of "moral values"...

Michelle Money claims Ashley is not very religious.

Chris Harrison bringing up the fact that "every path is different".

How does the Heartbreak relate to this... the family wants to cause heartbreak this time. Bentley (a Mormon) caused heartbreak. Jordan was heartbroken before.

No clue how Ben fits into this story... I guess the family accepts him?

Anything else?

Do we know for a fact Ash's family is devout catholic? Her sis has a LOT of tattoos all down her arms - I can't imagine she's extra religious? :-/ or are tattoos becoming accepted in every religious crowd too nowadays?

The FD with Ash walking away from JP like she's leaving is just like the LCD previews of Brad leaving Em alone by herself.

my mind has a bookmark to check for what happened exactly before this scene... anyone remember?
ETA: just remembered it's the beach scene with Ash asking JP if he'd be ready to do it right away (get engaged)...what did he say to that question??

cupcakes wrote:Hmmm. Thanks. Blue outfit with Ben and beige with JP?
