IMO they were told to look surprised/angry, basically give big wtf reactions.

True. Plus how convenient that they showed the people that are close friends to them during those scenes. They also made Becca and Amanda say something to Ben to keep us from guessing. So convenient when both are buddy buddy with f2 and f1.

I think it was an E interview during WTA that Ben said he didn't switch. I think I'm right about that. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, please! Lol

It might just be that Amanda was dismayed to see Ben telling Jojo that he loved her yet again. I felt the same way and I'm not friends with Lauren.

They release pics to the media like this every season and most times we can figure out the order. It hasn't stopped them from doing it so doubt they're holding back pics. I'm just not seeing Ben bringing Jojo back after sending her away. JMO

iA something just doesn't sit right with the spoilers. Isn't it possible they could manipulate what we're seeing and hearing to make us believe one storyline when actually something else happens? Why are they making the spoilers so obvious if true? Maybe I'm just hoping for "shock the world" finale.

And if he brought JoJo back after Lauren it'd be almost too dark already outside, right?

they could but i doubt it. I would totally be shocked if that happened and to be honest a little hurt that they made us buy into what we were seeing with lauren and ben just to have it turn out a different way.

Isn't that what TPTB live for? To mess with people?

ITA.  Making things too obvious is not TPTB's MO.  That is why I am staying on the fence.  I will not be surprised if either JoJo or Lauren are the F1.  In spite of all the articles, spoilers etc..... I see plenty of signs it could go either way.

i don't but thats just me.

IMO the pro JoJo angle is really strong from TPBP IMO. CH sung praises to BenJo, and giving a passing statement to Lauren. JoJo's HTD date being switched to show last while it happened first. BenJo private convo in the bathroom being leaked. Bringing JoJo's ex to the mix whom she dumps for good for Ben. BenJo has been pushed to the front a lot more than BenLo, IMO.

the last few episodes maybe but its really been all about lauren up until the Bahamas imo. Maybe they realized how obvious they were being and needed to show some jojo to make it well less obvious.

The only dramatic thing they keep shoving down our throats is the ILYs. MTP convos are mainly going to be about Ben's ILYS to both and both dates with F2 and F1 are focused on the ILY's too. I'm pretty sure it will be a normal FRC. This is just to create confusion and doubt. Someone got engaged at the end. I don't see Ben doubting that decision. I don't think he would propose to either one of them if he was really that conflicted. He seems to want the real deal so I don't see any other scenario happening besides a normal ceremony where he sends one home and proposes to the other.
