The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - Filming Schedule - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Diana wrote:I have no doubt Lauren is F1

Me too. I definitely think Lauren is F1.
I think it was a done deal with those photos of Ben literally cherishing (imo) Lauren's face.
That's a Ben I've never seen before and imo, that's a Ben with his F1.

Whoever the F1 may be, I hope that Ben is happy with this experience.

The first promo was posted Tuesday Nov 17th

CH is interviewed via skype on Wed Nov 18th

Ben is going to be a phenomenal bachelor," Harrison said in a Skype interview with "Good Morning America" co-anchor Rebecca Jarvis during "GMA's 40 for 40" live stream event. "I can't wait for everybody to see this season. I think everybody is really going to fall in love with this guy. He's just a very sincere, sweet, genuine guy."

Wednesday Nov 18th we learn Caila has her itinerary and is making her way home Thursday Nov 19th.

IMO the FRC was not Wednesday the 18th as per RS if they posted the first promo on the 17th, and Caila knew earlier in the day on Wed the 18th the times of her flights on the 19th. Unless she was let go earlier and had to stick around till after the FRC.

I do believe that the pattern, at least since Emily's season is for the f3 to have to stay on location until the FRC... but not necessarily during the couple of days that the couple gets to stay together after. As I recall, during Sean's season, Ashlee was either home or at least had access to a computer (but was waiting on her phone- some sm message she put out was "get my phone back tomorrow") - and we knew because she was posting like crazy on Pinterest. RS said that last year, Kaitlyn had the wonderful privilege of staying in Iowa while filming finished. Just speculating her... is it possible that the source of Caila knowing her travel itinerary knew, but Caila didn't yet? Or she left after MTP or during LCD? Just putting different scenarios out there- I don't have a clue, but not surprised she's there all the way to the end of filming.... all of the f3 would have been IMO.

Popping in to ask if we know for certain that Caila made it to F2, is it possible she was F3 and stayed in the FRC location (Jamaica) until after the FRC?

If the FRC was on the 13th/14th, why would CH stay around until 18th? Wouldn't he hightail it back to LA, after all, he has been lying around in the sun for a couple of weeks already.

I think the FRC was more like Sunday/Monday 15-16th. Wasn't there SM activity by Jojo which we speculated she was the F3? CMIIW

Monday - FRC
Tuesday - Ben Promo
Wed - CH skype He could have been coming home Wed after his skype ?
Wed - Caila gets her schedule to come home and is forced to stick around for a couple of days
Thursday - Caila comes home
Friday/Weekend - Ben F1 return home?

Just throwing it out there.

Sorry for the double post, here's something else to mess with our minds.

We said perfect "Ben" RT @people: The new #Bachelor is a perfect 10

So does that mean the first promo that was posted upthread, was not Nov 17 but earlier?

Did you watch the skype with CH? They talked about it being one of the last days of filming and CH talked about Ben's final decision in future tense, not that he's not known for lying, but I definitely got the impression that it wasn't done yet. I mean he turned that camera to the producers and said they're anxious because they've still got filming to do that day. Sure, they might be filming some TH's after the fact, but not several days after, I don't think. And there's no need for CH to be there at that point.

Regardless of when the FRC was I believe that Ben eliminated JoJo at F3 and Caila at the LCD F2.  I firmly believe that Ben the 10 on Season 20.....The Most Romantic Season Ever per MF......will have a FRC dedicated to his Love Story and Happily Ever After with Lauren accepting the final rose and proposal. JMO :sweetheart:

I will be SHOCKED if this isn't how it plays out. We are due for a real love story

:dancing peg: :Woah-hoo:

I've been told "everyone" leaves today. Caila is expected in Ohio at 1am. I don't know if everyone includes Ben.

TY

Sorry, what does LCD stand for?
