Ben Higgins - Bachelorette 11 - *Spoilers - Sleuthing* - Discussion

I don't understand.  What am I not seeing? looks like he votes for Britt to me? TPTB want to hide it for drama's sake.

Ben H votes for britt according to this SC -- the vase of roses behind him on his left

check out the position of the vase of roses behind josh in this sc 


based on these SC then ben H is the one who asks for K to give him a chance despite the vote...very very interesting if he's part of F3

Just noticed something, in the first screencap on the bottom right side there is a glow from the candle shining on the edge of the box. If he were putting it into Britt's box it would be darker since her candle is on the opposite side. Tricky camera angle but I am now leaning towards it being Kaitlyn's box.

Oh BlackHalo you are talking about the candles in front of the box
I see exactly what you are saying and I think that's the pretty much solidifies he voted for Kaitlyn. If it was Britt's box the light would be on the left! Great find!

The solid section of drape between two patterned sections looks more like behind the Britt box shape to me BUT I'm awful at this kind of stuff. 

we're sure thats his hand right?

I think he's voting Kaitlyn. The boxes are so close to each other that there's not much difference in background, when you shoot from close distance. Depends entirely on the angle. And I think he would've been standing in the middle of the boxes before casting his vote, so he wouldn't be standing to the far left side of Britt's box. And then there are the candle reflections. 100% Kaitlyn IMO.

Does anyone else feel dirty while writing about Britt's and Kaitlyn's boxes, or is it just me?

It was just you but now it's my head

IA, he votes for Kaitlyn.

I agree they used a tricky camera shot angle to make it look like he votes for Britt, but I believe he voted for Kaitlyn

hmm I'm not seeing it...still think he voted for Britt - hope we get to find out during the premiere

You can see the candle reflection is on the left of Brit's box and the right for Kaitlyn's box and the box Ben is dropping into the reflection is on the right. We'll find out for sure next week.

I just re-watched the video and IMO I'm 100% sure Ben voted for Kaitlyn judging by his position after he dropped the rose. His angle to the roses would mean he walked to the far side of Britt's box which wouldn't make any sense given the position of the him in the full body shot/the other guys

I believe RS said he'd be recapping the episode in advance so we should know who voted what sometime this week. I still think the candlelight reflection is a dead giveaway. There would be some sort of glow on the left side of that box if it was Britt's. Her candles are on the far left. We'll see.
