They showed her 7 times in the extended preview. That's a lot more than some of the other "top girls". And they show her face directly quite a few times. Don't they usually try to hide the final 1?

Nice that her mom flew out. They're excited.

I wonder if TPTB just doesn't care anymore. I definitely thought from all the drama in the previews that we would end up with a cliffhanger of "will Ben end up alone" like in previous seasons, but they actually showed him smiling at the FRC and VOs saying that he's in love and such. So I'm starting to wonder if TPTB is just going to show us a straightforward love story this season.

They showed her in drama, not in PDA! A lot more Jojo, Amanda and Caila there! Litta has created SCs (https://www.bachandbachettefans.net/t3285p24-the-bachelor-20-ben-higgins-scaps-no-discussion-sleuthing-spoilers) we can have a better look

No they don't, IMO. At least not in recent years and I am referring to sleuthing viewers here more than general audience.

To sleuthing viewers I think, after 20 seasons, the only way to "hide" anything is to pretty much eliminate the F1 story completely, imo, and for general viewers who are unaware of spoilers, even the most obvious of seasons most general viewers early F1 predictions are wrong or change throughout.

I just think that with the show being over-saturated with media, blogs (there are so many now), Social Media, etc, the show has morphed into being a Social Media/Audience Engaged show so nothing will really be hidden.

So I think for TPTB it is just a waste of their time to spend too much time trying to "trick" the audience. After all, if spoilers can fail to trick some audiences then a little editing here and there (especially towards the end) works just fine for them.

It's Reality TV after all - saving the $$$$ because people will keep tuning in, spoiled, obvious edit, what-have-you.

#TeamLauren all the way!!!!

Those are caps from the beginning of episode, where she wasn't shown directly up close/or that much. I'm talking about the extended preview at the end of the episode. They show her crying, making a :O face, talking to Amanda about Olivia, kissing Ben in the water, in the airplane with him, Ben telling her he feels lucky everytime he's with her, and saying how she hopes he figures out Olivia sooner rather than later.

wait, was it Lauren that Ben told he feels lucky everytime he's with her?

Yes. You can tell by the body (slim and tall) and hair.

Loved night one. I don't know the exact order of Lauren's entrance but to see the look on Ben's face was interesting. I also liked that Lauren was holding a glass of bubbly for Ben... that's another moment.

The little interplay between the two of them was quite flirtatious and sweet. Ben was seriously eyeballing her, her smile and his (sweet on each other).
Rose ceremony .... Lauren B
