Yes, those little moments with Catherine, mostly because of Sean's reaction to her, made me hope she might be the final one even though it seemed unlikely early on. .
It is only epi 6 which means we've only reached the midpoint of the season.  If the HTD wasn't in 2 more epis then being so hidden wouldn't be such a bafflement in terms of Chris' storyline.  The "secret admirer" letters just seem like an overstatement without being privy to how their relationship is developing.

Chris is the only one with a hometown screencap. Not going by "snapshots" or RS postings.

He is also seen in a suit leaving the way Sean did during Emily's season, looking downcast, and "what went wrong look?' on his face. But in the first night and first date card scene, they sc all of the top 4 guys.  TPTB always leave a breadcrumb trail.....and there is always a wolf in Grandma's clothes too...

Where is this?  I don't remember of SC of him doing that.  The only SC I have seen is the one from last episode, it was in the preview but they didn't show it

    That's great.  Looks like castle ruins behind him.  
Is this the suit he wore in Epi 5?

Random thoughts:
Castle ruins - epi 7 GD at castle ruins
GD 6 - Chris says "... But what is the alternative"
Andi saying "This isn't a fairytale" in an old preview
"Secret Admirer" letters
Epi 6 - apparently Cody and Andi answer letters left at the sight of Juliet's balcony (RS spoiler)
The film "Letters to Juliet"

Hypothesis: someone important leaves before HTD

I thought it was figured out those were the exact same clothes he wore during the last rose ceremony...hence, not from an upcoming date but, just something that wasn't shown from the last one. Probably after they found out she didn't want a party and was going straight to the rose ceremony.

It really is the strangest thing, Chris and Andi had their date, and we've only seen them interact once since then when she was grilling him at the group date after  party.  No hugging when she sees the guys, no hugging that we see at RC's when he gets "rosed"..  No PI's about him, other than her saying Chris is one of the nicest guys in the house.

It is very strange.  She gets the 1st secret admirer letter and reads it aloud. She really doesn't show all that much emotion but maybe that's just true to her character.  Then she goes to the RC that week and announces to all the guys at the start of the cocktail party that she got one.  From that time onward Chris becomes largely "secret" as in rarely seen.  Another letter arrives which she also reads aloud.  In this scene there is a cowhide throw on the trunk, which she puts her feet on (foot up on the competition?) and the camera pans twice to the leather jacket she wore on her date with Brian.  

On the upcoming epi when Chris will reveal himself, he is wearing a turtle neck.  Caption could read," will he come out of his shell?".      Speaking of attire, Andi was wearing a mock turtleneck on the night Cody accused Nick of mocking him. Wonder if Nick will scarf down his food in Venice?  

This season is so weird.

The "Secret Admirer" would only make sense to me if Chris had not already had a 1 on 1 date.  Since he did, there's nothing really secret about it.  So I just don't get the significance of the secret letters/admirer.

I agree.  We see Nick, Josh and Marcus story line but I haven't seen anything between Chris and Andi.  I do see how the letters might get him the HTD but unless I see a whole lot more it's hard to believe he's F1.  I guess stranger things have happened.
