I'm not getting that vibe. I like her - she's probably my fave girl

I don't think Storm is like Dani at all (totally different personalities) just that the one girl Art made out with at Cocktail Parties was Dani. That they are emphasizing the physical in the edit with Storm is what they did with Dani. If Storm is F1 then she will get an edit that is more than just physical as time goes on I think. If he physical becomes Storm's main storyline or it changes will be interesting to see. Her preview is of her in ITM saying something about doesn't see the problem with her and Jordan kissing so perhaps other girls bringing it up?

Katiebelle wrote:@AllAboutLove are you enjoying this episode more than yesterdays? I think its much better. Better story and connections. Plus - I love that the girls are starting to voice their opinions over Naz's nastiness.

Yes much more. Feels like the season is finally starting.

Definite connection with Storm but I'm loving Jordan with Rebecca the most.

I like that Jordan has fun with Rebecca (called himself a big kid and said she is too) - reminds me of Art with Matilda. Rebecca and Jordan also have that nervous attraction that is adorable and have a lot in common.

I see the connection with Storm but I feel the connection with Rebecca and Jordan. If that makes sense?

Yes I see it too. I like Rebecca as well. That date was very good and there was something pretty special between them. I wouldn't be surprised at all if she's F1. I want to see more of them.

Storm got first rose at RC. Definite frontrunner
Claudia sent home. Thank goodness.

Preview next week:

Looks like Fleur gets single date?
Somethings about Storm and her saying something about her kissing Jordan at CPs?

Now that her evil crony has gone Naz will have to make more of an effort with the other girls.

So they are going overseas next week. When did you sleuth that they traveled? We might be able to work out what stage the pictures posted in Scout are from.

Good point! I hope Naz leaves soon too.

Scout posted this Feb 28 that they were overseas filming. This means if they started filming Jan 22 they were 5 weeks into filming (or less if there were breaks/problems with contestants at start of filming). So 4-5 weeks into filming they would be overseas still. No way to know though if they left for overseas sooner.

Mauger said in a phone interview with SCOUT this week, while filming the show overseas at an undisclosed location.

IIRC, every 3 days there was a RC for Art's season... If they did similar to Art and no breaks and same schedule then maybe...

Ep 1 (Jan 22 = arrivals, Jan 23 = meet and greet and 1st RC, Jan 24 rest, etc)
Ep 2 (Jan 25 = single date, Jan 26 = group date, Jan 27 = CP and RC)
Ep 3 (Jan 28 - Jan 30 = SD, GD, CP, RC)
Ep 4 (Jan 31 - Feb 2 = SD, GD, CP, RC)
Ep 5 (Feb 3 - Feb 5/6 = SD, GD, CP, RC)
Ep 6 (Feb 6 - Feb 8 = SD, GD, CP, RC)
Ep 7 .... overseas (the article was posted Feb 28 though so nearly 20 days later? - which makes me think it was FDs?)

Not sure though... it depends if they were still filming last week? Maybe they didn't film on weekend or filmed longer for each episode than they did Art's season? Also if they are filming overseas before HTDs then they would have to be likely back in NZ for HTDs? So back overseas again for FDs, MTP, LCD, FRC? Art had a total of 16 episodes IIRC excluding ATFR so not sure if this season will have more eps? Will need to cross check with Art's film schedule and see what episodes were when. IIRC Matilda got her 2nd single date in Ep 12 so Ep 13 and 14 were HTDs.

I hope things change around!

I also feel like he is just going through the motions, no girl seems very interested either... not enthused by this one TBH
