I just laugh now because the poor thing really, really tried to do his job and give TBAU a show that wasn't The Blake and Sam show...

He really tried. And yet, everyone knew from his picnic date... remember the youtube video I posted of his interview where he tries to NOT talk about Sam..?

yah. 

LOVING this.. just LOVING it!!

indeed he was "doing his job" this episode and it was very clear from his demeanor and style with both lisa and louise. i felt really bad for louise esp when he said "this is perfect to 'cap it off'" I think she may have gotten a weird look on her face at that moment...like a daunting realization that this was kinda her last hurrah...but she maybe just have put it out of her mind and decided to enjoy the last moments and forget about her doubts -- that's the inkling i got from their behavior in the pool...I'm really curious to see how lisa acts tomorrow -- she's been a real puzzle to me all season and i look forward to getting to know her after the season's over...

From the humor exhibited by the girls on this show, Sam by far would be the one to do something that would blow our minds more worthy than #dirtystreetpie IMO if Osher is to be believed. Lisa is very funny but she does not come across as very real or as genuine as Sam IMO.

Emusha in an earlier media posting u uploaded on Osher, it was mentioned that he is one of the producers for the show. I also like him/believe him more than CH but Osher is definitely pumping up the finale & it think he is right about something going down at the proposal. I hope Sam has no mints in her bra this time

yea agree with you!! we'll see but i do think osher doesn't take this show seriously enough to lose his credibility by exaggerating over nothing...I think you might be right that it's something a bit funny and quirky if he likens it to #dirtystreetpie and he's bursting at the seams to share it...we'll see what osh is made of then tomorrow!

I feel like in this episode, Lisa and Blake skipped a few steps forward in their relationship, which is why I can't see them as a genuine couple. They're definitely synced mentally though.

The way the producers edited the show, they needed a love story to root for Sam got that edit the whole journey through. There is no way that he kept being that level-headed about all the girls, all that mention of "I have fallen for all of them" and "I don't know how I'm going to choose," there is always going to be someone that tips the scale for you, more than any other person. He had to say that he had strong feelings for them, otherwise where's the mystery?

If Sam is F1, I'm hoping for a humorous yet very romantic proposal. I'm remembering J.P and Ashley's proposal and the final lines still crack me up. They're one of my favourite couples. x

spot on! that's exactly how it felt -- not a natural progression but an obligatory leap forward...bizarre...
so osher hinted at a few surprising things (in typical CH style though I do believe osher more than i believe CH's hyperboles )

POPSUGAR Australia: Out of the final girls, who did you have a feeling might be at the end based on watching their first meeting with Blake?

Osher Günsberg: Uh . . . I really want to answer that question, but I'm not going to answer that question [laughs]. I'm so sorry. I don't want anyone to think that there's anything one over the other. It's such a surprise. I want the surprise to be so awesome for everybody.

I had an idea that he might do something along those lines, but when he did it, I lost my mind. It was pretty amazing. I wish I could tell you so much more, oh my God I wish I could tell you so much more! [Laughs]

PS: Well thanks for telling me what you could!

OG: I wish I could tell you so much more. It is so . . . I'm just gonna say that #DirtyStreetPie has got nothin' on what happens — that's all I'm saying!

Hahah, I tried to dissect Osher's interview earlier and ended up confused at my own confusion. Even Amber said on Instagram a few weeks back that we would be shocked or something along those lines... Maybe she was alluding to the proposal, I think? Does anyone have any theory to what it might be? I'm hoping it's just going to be a South African dancing flash mob or something HAHA!

So here is my theory regarding Lisa and her being the beard...

Lisa, as F2, had to kiss and all that with Blake. (I found it hilarious when Blake was telling Lisa he has fallen for her and when they kiss it is like a peck. No tongue here, ladies. haha)

Guess who told Lisa she was "super comfortable with" her? Yes, Sam did on their 2-on-1 date with Blake.

And that is why Lisa was 'chosen' as F2 because there was a trust between her and Sam. Sam trusted her that it would not be a threat to Sam's feelings for Blake.

Even Blake stated that Lisa understands what the show is all about. This means that she can play the part of the beard because she loves Sam and truly cares for Blake - they definitely have a friendship, kindred nature, a close one, all three of them. (which is why it seemed a bit... weird the 2-on-1 date with Blake, Sam, and Lisa)...

But, as the previews clearly show... Sam says she no longer wants to SHARE Blake.

She is also the only that has used the word husband in reference to Blake.

This girl is a gem. A diamond in the rough. Blake knew it loooong ago and "he knew it was time to fight for her"....

I also noted how Lisa and Blake barely touched each other. I am sure there were re-shot scenes between the two of them. In fact, out of everyone, Lisa and Blake's scenes seem to be reshot the most.

Also... to make a point regarding Blake saying that Lisa had swept him off his feet?

Blake, Blake, Blake, you cannot be swept off your feet when you are already on the ground because you have fallen, fallen, fallen.

Here's my theory on what could potentially be the thing that makes Osher lose his mind concerning Blake's proposal...

Wait for it...

There are MINTS in the box!! J/k... I think that just before he proposes he gives Sam a mint, pulls it out of his jacket or something, or he takes a mint himself, or both of them. It has to do with mints. For sure... LOL

To be honest both girls would be devastated if he chose the other. Peole saying it would be cruel of him to get Sam sized for a ring are forgetting how devastating it will be for Lisa if he got Sam a ring all along and played her along. I guess my point is lets not assume one person's pain of rejection is greater than the other person's. i like Sam and i like Lisa and i am not thinking Sam will be morehurt if she is F2 than Lisa would.

hahahaha love that! recreating his first proposal "will you take this ring and keep it on you?"

He did tell Lisa he has falling for her and that she swept him off his feet but we are to assume that was scripted? I chose to believe he felt that way and he said it meaning it. Why is everything he said to Lisa scripted but everything he said to Sam real? I am just wondering. I remember how it was argued that Clare was F1 and JPG was scripted with Nikki... We all know how that turned out. I have no horse in the race so kudos to the winning lady whoever she is.

Question for you since I haven't watched the show yet: did it appear that Blake was leading Louise on during their date or he was cautious & guarded a bit? I really like Blake & Louise is just lovely & don't want any public backlash against Blake. I read some angry postings on Sam's Instagram from folks upset that Louise was let go by Blake.
