The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - Episode 8 - HTD - Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

The only Possible Way, Molly would be on the show is if Lauren is on the show

When I was watching Mollie, I kept thinking, she's beautiful, well-spoken, and grounded. The Bachelor franchise should snap her up! Mollie for Bachelorette! Wait, that's never going to happen. But still, they need to do something with her.

I thought the same thing this morning. I hope we get to see her again on the show... if not, I'll just keep following her IG.

I simply liked how she asked Ben a serious question, but even though he couldn't express himself in words to answer her, she saw how he teared up and was very sweet to hug him to say she understood. This was the difference to me between the two families...JoJo's and Laurens. While they both had the same concerns and asked very similar questions, the Bushnell's not only gave Ben the opportunity to answer, but they listened. They seemed much more welcoming to Ben and did not gang up on him...and they had no previous experience with reality tv. Plus, plus.

That's a good point. There was concern but also empathy.

I think that the concerns that JoJo's brothers expressed were valid concerns, but that they would have better been directed at JoJo. They had to know that Ben was not in a position to make a declaration at that point, even if JoJo was his F1.
