I'm thinking the two of them didn't allow the cameras in the room, so in turn, they had nothing to show.

I don't think they have a choice about being filmed. She was so obvious and over the top with his family, I think the fd would have made things even more clear. Kait couldn't get it together even talking to his sisters and was ranting like Miss Havisham on his many amazing qualities pretty much.

I actually was disappointed that the end of that was so abrupt. Nick gets a cute breakfast I'm bed scene and Shawn isn't even shown kissing her when he leaves. But maybe you're right and it would have been too obvious

They both had doubts but their infatuation/the bubble/romantic love will always overlook those if one lets them, imo. I don't see these two lasting very long... jmho

The thing is, I think Kaitlyn is actually finally starting to figure it out about Shawn.  IMO, He is a player.  He very likely said the eskimo brothers thing and I wouldn't be shocked if he bragged about past conquests (seriously, he hangs out with models).  And what he dad said about it all being ridiculous spoke volumes about his dad's belief about Shawn being read for marriage.  And the post-snapchatgate Nashville pictures support all of it too, so it isn't just the show.  I'm not shocked that she's torn, but I wish she'd put two-and-two together with her Shawn-blinders and realize that all of the stuff that she's seeing and noting are massive, massive red flags.

I did think the golf stuff was super funny, and it's probably the most I've liked Shawn on the show since maybe the first episode.  Too bad it was only one scene.

I really wish Shawn wouldn't have stripped down, and that Kaitlyn wouldn't have dared him too. Maybe in a different setting, but not on national TV..

It's personally not my thing either but the key takeaway for me was that Shawn gets her and they get each other. Even if it doesn't work out, he's the one that is most aligned with her in terms of best fit imo.

"I'm just confused as to why you had sex with me. Twice. Then picked Shawn? Why did you do that?"

For GOOD MEASURE!!!....mwahhhaaaaaaa-pun intended.

I will be curious about Kait's blog today. She really did not tweet about the show

JMO: Nah. 
TPTB can do retakes. It would have been easy to get a short snuggle scene over coffee similar to the other morning scene. I agree with other posters regarding no lack of Shawn love with production. The short scene they left in looked like a love her and leave her scene.

I had to unfollow CS because the past few weeks his tweets towards Kaitlyn were very ugly and uncalled for. I guess he thought he was being funny but the things he tweeted were very hurtful and just plain ugly especially the last 2 weeks.

^^^^I was confused by the lack of "love scenes' with shawn too. TPTB are confusing me this time. Maybe they are mad at Kait that she spoiled the show and this is their revenge.

Anxious to see kait's blog too.

Yep. They definitely like Nick though. Even if he does not end up with the girl they took care of him this time. The ATFR will be so much fun (sarcasm). Why not just end the show now and get to the ATFR where Nick heroically rescues Kait from the jealous, possessive macho player? Instead of a love story, we get this. Yeah I am frustrated because this season really has been one major mess IMHO.

I don't understand it either. It totally baffles me. The way he was acting when she brought up Nick was such a massive red flag and she didn't even try to question him. She seems to accept Shawn's childish rage as inevitable and ignores it the best she can. Maybe it's because she foolishly feels responsible for it due to sleeping with Nick and telling Shawn about it, but I just find it so strange. I know I'd be like "Look, I've spent way more quality time with the guy than you have, so why can't you just trust my judgement? Do you see me as an idiot or something? Why wouldn't Nick be into me, am I that bad?". Just put him on the spot about his irrational hate for once! I'd do that no matter who the hate was directed at, if I thought there was no basis for it, because it's not normal or healthy.

For me I think K has brough up Nick to Shaun far to many times. She needs to let it go. And concentrate on just the two of them.
