The Bachelorette 11 - Kaitlyn Bristowe - MTA - Taping July 11th - Airing July 20th *Sleuthing - Speculation*

Okay, if Ben H and Shawn were sharing a room in SA that only had one king size bed in it, then why do we assume that the king size bed was only meant for Shawn to sleep on?  Because, there is plenty of room on a king size bed to accommodate two grown men, and they would never even have to touch each other.

So, my guess is that when Kaitlyn decided to visit Shawn, and they got on the king size bed together, a cot was brought in for Ben H at that time.  And, that would mean that tptb were just accommodating Kaitlyn's unscheduled(?) visit to see Shawn.

The more that comes out about this season, the more bizarre it gets.  Honest to goodness, everyone not named Shawn Booth got royally screwed over by Kaitlyn and the producers this season.  It sounds like she DID NOT even try to be fair and honest with the other poor saps who didn't choose to leave on their own.  

I had actually hoped that Ian would call Kaitlyn out at the MTA, but it sounds like he decided that he wanted to try to clean up his image instead - by apologizing to her on national television.

Haha, I don't think two heterosexual men would sleep together on the same bed, no matter how big it was!!

Okay, then Ben should have called dibs on the king size bed while Shawn was out on his date with Kaitlyn.  Then Shawn would have gotten the cot for him and Kaitlyn to spoon on.   That seems fair to me.

Ben is too nice of a guy for this show

"There were no after party hook-ups."

I don't understand how RS would even know that. That claim seems a little far-fetched.

I was thinking the exact same thing. More like 'nobody sent me any after party hook-up gossip this time.' 

He needs to get a new magic 8 ball.

Very ancient history, but this reminded me that during Bach 10 (matt grant) where Shayne Lamas was basically cast by Fleiss as F1 (a failed attempt at changing up the model to hire an actress to seduce the Lead and "win" the show), she got an $8000 per night stunning private villa in Barbados and Amanda and Chelsea got crap rooms at some mid-range Marriott or other chain.

Pretty simple for me, there will be only two worthwhile segments at the MTA:

1. Bloopers
2. Finale Preview

In past after-parties, all of the hook-ups have been super obvious with everyone knowing (Zach/Kaitlyn, Sean/Jenna, possibly Chris Soules/Lucy, etc.). He probably does have sources at the party (like Clare), so I think he would know if someone had been openly making out at the party. It makes sense to me, since most of Kaitlyn's guys were on BIP anyways so the girls already had their chance. The only people that would have really hooked up would been Ben H or Ben Z, and they don't seem like the type.

Right, but he doesn't know what happened at the hotel, or what happened after the after-party. RS has no idea about hotel hook-ups - unless his sources are cast members.
