Nick Viall - Bachelorette 11 - *Spoilers - Sleuthing* - Discussion #3

welcome tvjunkie your thoughts are very welcome here glad you joined us -- please continue to post!



the veterans might chime in here but the things you mentioned + the other odd things about this season

- LA FRC
- htd travel out to one location
- FD before HTDs
- 2 guys at HTD

some of these have happened in diff seasons but not all of these things in one season -- I don't think there's ever been an F2 HTD week? or am I imagining that?

In any case you're right - there's something odd about this season. We'll see if they choose to do a closed set AFTR - they've been VERY tightlipped about everything so far to a point them being tight lipped seems to also be supplemented by foilers

ETA : thanks OP -- I was looking for location and timing of that -- in addition to confirming who were in the cap thanks will look!

Welcome TVjunkie88!!!!

..and welcome to the confusion, haha. Like you, I also have my doubts about the FRC being shot at the mansion. We have a beachfront picture posted by the shows makeup artist on the day the FRC supposedly took place. She does the makeup for the leads and CH, if FRC was truly on the 3rd, and she was at this beach place, then it would have happened there and not the mansion...and the mansion is not an oceanfront residence. questions abound.

IA that he looks happier now but whether that relates to the ending or not? Not sure based on his tweets that seem to fit the filming schedule of HTD/MTP?LCD?/FRC (Utah-LA), imo, he doesn't sound happy if the FRC was May 3rd/4th.

Nick's tweets: (if in LA the week of May then time he tweeted as noted is in PT)
May 4th (12:46 pm PT) = FRC/post-FRC?  
May 2nd (11:27 pm PT) = Possible FRC/pre-FRC?
April 29th (1:10 pm PT) = End of week of HTDs, Kaitlyn flying into LA?

There are so many things different about this season ( lack of home towns, final rose ceremony in LA etc) that I am having a very hard time believing that she chose no one. Why would she bring Nick all the way to the Final 2 just to dump him? What happened there?
All of you are more informed than me as far as spoilers but this season seems way off to me. The final rose ceremony at the mansion has given me huge red flags. Of course I may be all wrong but it's just way too odd for me to believe.
I think the smug one has spoiled this show but he also IMO has been so smug and so cocky for the lack of a better word he may just be getting played this time. But who knows.

Sorry for the long post I will be quiet now and continue to read.

Welcome! I love "smug one" !

AAL ... great, I was just thinking to state my apology, since in SCs thread I posted wrong times of Nick's tweets from Ireland, because apparently my SM skills are so non-existent, that only today I've realized my settings were wrong even for my own time-zone.

So could I please ask you, or anyone, if you could post when Nick's tweets were posted, because it might help us come up with the schedule of dates/RCs... IMO, we could at least "read between the lines" the general mood and maybe figure out when the bomb was dropped.

The way I read it the bubble tweet is a little witty play with words
he was playing around with the idea of being out of the bubble and then imagined that he was blowing his own bubble to keep being in the bubble and now he's out of the bubble ...so.... "bubble bummer"...i think it's a silly quirky little tweet and fits with his sense of humor --

if we're to believe at least some of this tweets were written by him -- which is as possible as them being written by elan.. there are a lot of neutral things he was tweeting about that weren't spoilers like almond butter and cashew milk... if I'm to read that tweet with the Nick sense of humor in mind I think he'd find it witty to tweet something like that about being out of "the bubble" when he wants to keep being in the bubble

I think it can be debated either way what it means that he wanted to stay in the bubble but ohh look... "bubble bummer" he's all out of bubble gum

I tend to think that if he was not fine with the ending he'd not be coming up with witty tweets within the 12/24hrs after the ending...esp one where he's the one creating his own bubble as opposed to other ppl bursting his bubble or any other play on word with that metaphor

JMHO

So here's my confusion: Either Nick was tweeting while filming to mislead or to inform (his family/whomever).

1) Based on last year and the airplane-gate video of Nick spoiling the ending.... why would he do the same thing again via tweeting?!
2) If FRC was May 3/4 and Nick is "all out of bubble gum #bubblebummer" that doesn't seem like a positive thing to me if he was F1 then he would be spending time with Kaitlyn so he would still be in the bubble. So is he informing one about the ending being a "Bachelorette Bubble Bummer" or is he misleading one with his tweet?

I guess once the show is over we will know whether he was informing/misleading. But if he was informing one about the ending, that is basically airplane-gate 2.0, imo. So why would TPTB allow that? Why would they allow Nick on SM (whether himself or another tweeting) at all if he spoiled last season? If it is to mislead it makes sense... Otherwise...

I have a difficult time believing that TP would allow Nick to tweet anything while on the show without their approval. Why would Nick be allowed to be on SM and no one else? And when would he be doing this if he's "hanging" out with the guys all the time? Wouldn't they see Nick has his phone? I personally think it's Nick and Elan trying to come up with cryptic tweets to mess with people, because they know people (like us) are going to be scrutinizing every post, every word.

"I'm all out of bubblegum" is a movie quote. I believe the line was "I came here to kick azz and chew bubblegum and I'm all out of bubblegum" He posts a lot of movie quotes.
