Re: Bachelorette 10 - Andi Dorfman - Episode 9 - Fantasy Dates - July 14/14 *Spoilers & Sleuthing* - Discussion - Thread #2

I wanted to repost this since it got buried in all the other posts. I believe it was Steel that first speculated this possibility! It's looking like this just may be the case IMO according to the sleuthing going on in the screencaps discussion! I apologozie if there was anyone else that posted this theory that I missed.

Nick meets her parents, has a final date but she lets him go before the RC.  The second dress is when she lets him go.

Why exactly do you think she lets him go?  

Just a theory. I may be wrong.  
The next time I expected to see her cry is when she lets the F2 go in her RC dress.  The preview shows her crying (not happy tears)in a different dress.  It tells me, she woke up and made her decision and wanted to tell the F2 right away. Its also clear makes her decision after both men meet her parents and after the LCD.

I don't think this has ever happened before, has it? In the past, the F2 was let go before or on the LCD. Maybe that's why they let her do it, if they did.

Did Ali let Chris go after LCD or during?

I agree with the theory. It explains the car... she goes to him after LCD before FRC.

This makes sense to me too, plus it's never been done before and we know how they love every variation of some new "drama."

Before. She went straight to his room after spending the night with Roberto and told him she had to let him go. They never had a LCD.

Hmm, I wonder if Nick's LCD is first then.

I hope!

Don't know if that's been sleuthed out, but it could go either way.  If his is second, she might just realize after having the LCD with him and sleeping on it overnight, that she can't bear to make him go through with the FRC, knowing he's going to propose to her (maybe he told her that on LCD).

I've seen a lot of criticism of Andi that she led Nick on too well, and that she is gleeful about making the guys all fall for/commit to her, and not reciprocating by falling for/committing to them at the same time. But isn't that actually what the lead is supposed to be doing? Yeah, it's cruel, unfair and selfish, but the whole concept of numerous suitors forced to vie for one fair maiden or be banished from paradise is ridiculous to begin with, and becomes even moreso when it is filmed and orchestrated for maximum entertainment and drama. I suspect from the producers' standpoint, Andi has been a wonderful lead, doing everything she's supposed to, and I suspect Andi's work ethic is such that she believes it is her job to follow the instructions her bosses have given her. When she breaks down is when she stops thinking with her head about doing her job and starts to think with her heart about how cruel/unfair/selfish the whole thing really is.

In the preview CH does say "But will both men propose?" I think they want to make it seem like Andi leaves heartbroken, but I think it's really because she does let Nick go before the FRC so he doesn't even get the option to propose and that ties into what CH says, but of course they're spinning that idea into the possibility Andi leaves with no one.

Why did they put the "i saw these glimpses of like heartbreak in a sense"
"are you in doubts that this is gonna work at all ?"

Heartbreak has been used a lot in theseason, do you think the couple is not a happy one ? Or it's just the editing, if yes why would they do that ?

So I missed all of Nick and Josh's dates last night, we were under a tornado warning and the local station took over; returned us back to the regularly scheduled programming at the start of Chris' date. I'm pouting as I really wanted to see their dates. Guess I'll just have to break down and see if I can see them on Hulu or the ABC website. Urgh!
