The Bachelorette Australia - Sam Frost - Season 1 - Episode Discussions -*Spoilers - Sleuthing*

Mmm.. I don't think so. Surprise is what was on Richie's face when Dave got a rose. Surprise facial expressions are raised eyebrows not set jaw which is what Sasha has. One can see his jaw is pressed down. In the actual moving clip it is easier to tell. The camera focuses on him and he is also the one not that excited about Richie when Richie goes back and shakes the guys hands.

I don't feel for one second though that it is a problem now... it is just him in that scenario and setting. Richie and Sasha are really good mates from SM and what I can gather and Sam talks so highly of Richie and both guys like each others IG pics and tweet each other. I think Sasha knew (guy's instinct) that Michael and Richie were his only real threats. Richie had received roses first 2 times before. He's just very alpha so that situation would bring it out in him, imo. Even Sasha's bio he said he hopes he has "an edge over the other guys" and his brother posted the IG pic of Sasha about him winning Sam essentially and caption it with Sasha accomplishes anything he puts his mind to. IMO, Sasha has feelings AND wants to make sure he is the winner... so a bit of both. It's just typical alpha male behavior, imo, in that scenario especially given FIR and first kiss.

Any clues as to what happens from the caps now this episode is done?

I still think the sky diving is a group date. Not sure though!

Well not monster as I genuinely don't think he can help it.  It's as much about him body language as it is him words. I noticed too, at the rose ceremony when it was just Kayne and Richie in the shot that they focused in from the side on Sasha and the look he appeared to be giving.  Yikes!  I'm just wondering if anyone else is seeing this. I'm wondering why this is being shown?  

Yup. I've seen it too.

It's what makes me think he is being edited like Shawn was for K's season. Bit predictable really that the FIR alpha male gets jealous and has a hard time but in the end has the girl anyway. I already personally know from the guys in the house (Drew, Dave, Davey, etc..) that Sasha was the big dog and made sure the other guys knew it. Some liked that about him (Davey and Dave) and others not so much (Drew) as it came across like they were beneath him they said.

Anyway, here's the s/cap where Sasha is giving the death stare to Richie. It's funny really b/c it's obvious this is only about Richie and not Kayne. No way Sasha would be giving two hoots about Kayne. Interesting expression though... if looks could kill. Poor Richie... and still so supportive and friendly to Sasha. The guy is a bloody saint, imo.

I don't see it necessarily as a BAD THING ! And I personally don't see him looking at Richie with hate… he just has those strong eyes and he is just into DEEP THOUGHTS… most likely would prefer for the strongest of the two to go! Obviously anyone ( I know I would) that is in this position would want for the weakest contender to stay.

The skydiving date is Sasha's FD.
Info about final three going to New Zealand is incorrect.
Only the Final 2 go to NZ.


Here's the updated and corrected Episode 9 and also Episode 10 summaries/descriptions.
Final episode is definitely Ep 10 on Thursday Oct, 22.

Week 5 (Oct 14 & 15)
Episode 9: As her big decision looms, Sam takes the three remaining Bachelors on single dates they will never forget. Later, Sam says goodbye to someone unexpected during the toughest rose ceremony so far.
Episode 10: Sam and the final two Bachelors head on an overseas adventure of epic proportions. Plus, to help make her final decision, she introduces each Bachelor to her family. Will Sam finally find love?

So F3 FD = Sasha, Michael, and Richie.
FD Sasha = Skydiving?
FD Michael = Whitewater rafting?
FD Richie = Skiing?

@marysegap Never said it was. It's just the show as I posted here. Par for the course.

So the only person we know for sure is in NZ is Sasha?

Yes, based on his vineyard s/cap definitely seems that way.
But Michael has more s/caps and the one of him having a picnic is likely there too.
Richie doesn't have any s/caps to suggest he goes to NZ, imo.
So the "shock" is Richie and likely b/c he will be pushed as a frontrunner once he has his SD, HTD, and Fantasy Date - it all is packed together Ep 6, Ep 8 and Ep 9 so heavy emphasis on Richie last weeks and makes sense it would be a shock the night before FRC episode since he will be the focus right before FRC episode.

ETA: Obviously this could be wrong and Richie could be in F2 and would make some sense since Sam's brother faved the tweet about Richie whom he would never have met unless MTP or the brother was just misdirecting or something the way Sam was by liking photos of Richie pre-show. But based on FRC being before July 13 and Michael going home July 10 it seems for sure Michael is F2 and Richie F3.

^^ Oh I meant the word "epic" used to describe such mundane activities.

Hold on what about Richie and Sam swimming in a lake?

I think the helicopter plus the walk in the forest plus somewhere swimming is Michael`s first 1 on 1 date. The rafting plus picnic and then the evening portion with the dinner near the aquarium is FD. The screen with the bridge is HTD.

The skydiving is FD.
Sasha and vineyard is LCD.

Skiing is FD.
I think Richie swimming with Sam is LCD.

I am not sure Richie swimming is LCD.
Seems a bit odd for a LCD imo.

It may even be a hot spring after FD skiing or part of Richie's HTD?
We don't have a HTD s/cap for Richie but it seems Sasha (painting) and Michael (bridge) and Alex (surfing) have HTD s/caps.

From the background of the pic it sure does not look like they did swim after skiing.
