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

Did anyone have a Blake flashback when Sam said, "I have feelings for all five of you" or was that just me?

Not saying Sam is Blake but... it just came to me.

I can see skiing, skydiving and rafting going together. I can't see skiing, skydiving and aquarium going together though. It's not computing

so IMO prods wanted to create drama and how much drama they could get if sasha leaves at hometown date? she indeed had a 2nd date with him. so maybe it could be richie leaving hometown?

i still have this nagging feeling that it is fishy and scripted with sasha

skiing, skydiving and rafting this would make sense... 3 sporty dates

Heartbroken. :bigsigh:

Yup. It's what they did with Heather. They never showed her talking pre-HTD RC either.
Richie has been Heather all the way, imo.
No wonder Heather herself is #TeamRichie. She gets it.
Only hope for me is Richie will accept being next Bachelor.

Pretty sure Alex leaves - only 1 SCP for him

Tonight's date was constructed to create something special for Sasha which he would enjoy, relax and share with Sam.  

ITA. I think it was planned that there would be distance in time from Sasha's first date to Richie's first date which was 4 weeks, a whole month later. And then straight after Richie's date Sasha gets another one. It's like Sam chose night one and then said "okay these other two for F3 so have the one guy near HTD and don't bother with a SD for the other guy". And then bam! Sam actually enjoyed her time with Richie but it was all too late, imo. No wonder Heather said she wished Richie had gotten the first date. Sam went with her type and the physical chemistry night one. jmo

Coming to the end when they were building Lana story, some of Snez's chat with Sam was cut out also.

If it doesn't serve the story then they wouldn't show it.

I am trying to work out Sam's Sasha fixation. Is it an attraction that you have that you don't understand at first. Then you work out that you actually get each other because of so many similar experiences and in hindsight you realise you sensed that when you first met. Or is it that Sam was just determined no matter what to do the opposite of how Blake did things so she was going to stay loyal to whoever she first liked no matter what. Or am I just being unfair because I find Sasha not my type because to me he seems so 'locked down' and inaccessible.

That Sam had her first date with Richie a month later? And kept bringing up her pain of the Blake thing? I think she purposefully distanced any of her attraction to someone else because of "loyalty" and not being like Blake (who gave his FIR to Louise who happened to be his real F1).
